Guoluo Luo's in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 52 Continuing the Southern Tour

As a woman, especially married to an emperor's woman, Wan Zhao can't just follow her son off the boat to Qing Chuan's Guo Luoluo family.But it doesn't matter, Yujia is just resting in Xiguan, Dezhou for an hour, Wanzhao thinks there is no need to go down for a walk, so she just tells Guixi to look after Yinyou, and asks Tao Fushou to buy some fresh food, while she stays in the room. move.

"Master, elder brother Fang Fujin is here." Lian Xin opened the bamboo curtain and led Baori Longmei in.

Wan Zhao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and told Bao Ri Long Mei to sit down.This Mongolian girl looked a little thinner, and the immaturity on her face has gradually faded away, and now there is only j□j charming and charming.Her face was a little pale, she looked at Wan Zhao and didn't know what to say.Wan Zhao said, "Why are you so free today?"

"While the boat is parked, I just come to pay my respects to my concubine." To be honest, Baori Longmei is not the main wife, and it is not her turn to call out the word "concubine", Wan Zhao just pretends that she can't hear her, and slightly smile.Baori Longmei saw that Wan Zhao was unmoved, and her eyes gradually turned red, "I am bored in the cabin by myself, and there is no heart-to-heart talk on this boat. Baori Longmei remembered that she had a few times with the concubine Shu, So I'm taking the liberty for a while."

"You are not in good health, you should take a good rest." Wanzhao asked someone to bring her a cup of mint tea, "This tea is refreshing, you should try it."

"Miss Xie Shupin." Baori Longmei couldn't sit still.She originally wanted to get closer to the emperor's favorite concubine Shu, but she knew that Shu concubine knew how to advance and retreat, and she definitely didn't want to get too close to her, the prince, Fujin, but she was depressed and always wanted to tell others One said.Da Fujin competes with her, and the other two Gege Wang and Gao are not easy to get along with, how wronged she is.If I knew I shouldn't have listened to my father back then, thinking about the majesty of the Qing emperor, I would go to the palace to participate in the talent show!

"You're welcome." Wan Zhao took a sip of the fruit tea, "Are you feeling better?"

"It's much better." Baori Longmei said with a slight smile, "It's fine when you get used to it." Seeing that Wanzhao didn't want to talk much, she didn't want to talk too much, so she left after drinking the cup of tea.

Wan Zhao asked Lian Xin to send her out, and continued flipping through the storybook.

"This side Fujin came to look for the master, could it be for a cup of tea?" Luyu lit the incense while the boat stopped, "The servant sees that she is hesitant to speak, so it is possible that she is here to talk to the master?"

"Whatever she comes to see me for, just ignore her." Wan Zhao didn't plan to get involved in these Prince Fujin's affairs, she wasn't the elder brother Er Niang, and she wasn't qualified to manage the elder brother, Bao Ri It was simply a wrong choice for Long Mei to come to her.She didn't want people to think that she intentionally meddled with the elder brother's room, otherwise, not to mention Concubine Hui, even Kangxi would not let her go.

After docking for an hour to replenish some fresh water and food, Yu Jia started to set off again.Tao Fushou brought back some fresh cakes for Wanzhao to make snacks, and let Wanzhao have a taste of them.On the sixteenth day, Yujia arrived in Jinan Prefecture.Because she wanted to stay here for a day, Wan Zhao finally had the opportunity to go down to the ground for a walk.

"The emperor is going to take all the elder brothers to see Baotu Spring and Pearl Spring in the morning. Do you want to go with me?" Zi Ying picked out a lavender gown for Wan Zhao to wear, and handed Wan Zhao a pair of red gold pendant earrings. "My servant heard that the emperor asked the concubine and master to follow."

"I won't go." Wanzhao picked out a rose gold gold and put it on. "The emperor granted us permission to go ashore and have a look. I will definitely go and have a look. Ask someone to ask Concubine Min if you want to follow me." go together?"

"Yes."

Not long after, Ziying brought Concubine Min's answer: "Master Min said, the deck is waiting for Master to come out."

"Okay." Wanzhao looked at her makeup carefully in front of the vanity mirror. On her hair were simple coral turquoise beeswax bead flowers and three gold jade hairpins with pearl tassels. The cloud-toed brocade shoes with similar patterns are the dress of ordinary Manchu ladies.Feeling that there is no problem at all, she took Lian Xin and Zi Ying out to meet Concubine Min.

Jinan is the capital of Shandong, and its prosperity is comparable to that of Beijing.Wan Zhao and Zhang Jia took people to the jewelry store to have a look—forgive this is a woman's nature, seeing that there are many differences between those jewelry and the inner palace, they were happy, so they paid for a few pieces without saying a word.

Wanzhao remembers the leading women in the palace and the good sisters she made friends with in the daily life, so of course she didn't forget to bring some for them.After choosing a few more suitable for a child of Buyechuk's age, he happily went back with Zhang Jiashi.

"Master has good eyesight." Ziying gave her a pair of silver hairpins with magnolia flower heads as a reward from Wanzhao, and they put them on excitedly, and put them in front of Lvyu to show off, not forgetting to praise Wanzhao's aesthetics.

"It's good for the master to give it to you." Luyu also got a pair of ginkgo flower hairpins, and she was smiling and putting them in a small box that she locked up.After putting it away, he said to Wanzhao, "I heard that elder brother brought out Fujin today. The servant girl looked at him, Fujin's face was smiling like a flower blooming."

Wanzhao glanced at her, and said, "You are the only one who likes to inquire about these things."

Luyu stuck out her tongue, smiled and went to prepare dinner for Wanzhao tonight.

After leaving Shandong and then heading south, we arrived at Jiangning Mansion in Jiangsu.This is the birthplace of the Cao family, where Cao Xi, the father of Cao Yin, was in charge of weaving in Jiangning until his death.During his southern tour, Kangxi also took Cao Yin, who was already the Guangchu Secretary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, with him, and asked him to go home to worship his father.

The Yujiahui stayed in Jiangning for a long time, so the whole group moved into the Weaving Yamen.

Wanzhao looked at her courtyard. Although the sparrow was small and well-equipped with all internal organs, there was only such a courtyard with running water flowing. There was a stone bridge across the water. At the other end of the stone bridge was a hexagonal pavilion, and there was a unique hanging on each corner eaves. wind chimes.Begonias, peonies, sweet-scented osmanthus and poppies are planted around the stone pavilion, and the flower buds are slightly blooming, which is very beautiful.

"Master's yard is really unique." Lian Xin put away Wanzhao's luggage and came out. Looking at the elegant environment in the yard, seeing Wanzhao was very satisfied, and said with a smile, "Master likes clean places. This yard looks exquisite. It is similar to those in the capital. It's really different."

Wanzhao also liked it very much, turned her head and said, "Where does Yinyou live?"

"Live at the front like the emperor and other elder brothers." Lian Xin replied, "Tao Fushou went to the front to help watch."

"That's fine. You can ask people to prepare more food that Yinzhen likes to eat. The emperor summoned Minister Jiang Ning tonight. He must not ask Yinzheng to go out to accompany him. Tonight, my mother and I will have dinner together. I heard that the yellow croaker here is good. It's called Yushan." Let’s make a stew in the room.” Wanzhao thought carefully, “It’s hard to travel by water these few days, so cook some rice and stew a soup, and it’ll be fine with fresh melons, fruits and vegetables.”

"Yes." Lian Xin replied, "Jiangning japonica rice is good, and it's good for cooking porridge and rice."

At that time, Cui Lan also came over and said: "Master, the hot water is ready. Master, go to the bathing clothes first."

"Alright." Wanzhao walked into the bathroom, the hot water in the tub exuded damp warmth.Taking off her clothes and stepping into the water, her long hair loosened and floated on the surface of the water, she sighed comfortably, soaked in the water scattered with rose petals, closed her eyes and enjoyed the emerald blue massage.

The imperial concubine, as a high-status woman accompanying this tour, had to go out to socialize and meet the wives of ministers in Jiangning.Wanzhao was not idle either, because those wives came to see Wanzhao and Zhang Jiashi after visiting the imperial concubine, even Yuan Guiren and Liu promised that there were people rushing to give gifts.

"Western silver pocket watches, a box of uncut emeralds, pearl chains..." Wan Zhao glanced at many good things, "These things are more beautiful than those in the capital, but those officials' wives seem to be It doesn't seem like it hurts at all to send it out."

"The water transportation is convenient here, and the commerce is also developed. I heard that many things are paid by foreigners." Tao Fushou said while helping to count, "Some adults even let their own people participate in the business, so these things are not for those wives. Probably not very expensive."

"Is that good?" Wan Zhao turned her beautiful eyes, "Is there a foreigner here?"

"Yes, I just saw it today. Yellow hair and green eyes, like a monster." Tao Fushou replied.

"Then you have time to ask me, do foreigners here have cinnamon cream?" Wan Zhao remembered that Kangxi would contract malaria when he personally conquered Junggar. In modern times, he would be fine if he took some artemisinin, but the problem is Where can we find artemisinin in this day and age, but foreigners can find that cinchona cream.Although Wanzhao was worried about Kangxi, she was also worried about Yinzheng herself. Maybe Yinzheng would also go to the front line to kill the enemy. What if she accidentally got infected?She had to be prepared in advance.

"Yes." Although Tao Fushou had doubts in his heart, smart servants never questioned him, so he just agreed and waited for Minger to go out to find out.

Just as everyone was working together to count all the gifts they got today and put them in the box, Li Dequan's apprentice, Xiao Yinzi, came with a piece of good or bad news: Kangxi accepted a Han queen, and Wang was already serving him tonight. Going to bed, Kangxi meant to take her away first, and then set her name in the palace.

Uncle Kangxi is quite romantic.Wanzhao sent Xiao Yinzi back and shook her head, "The blessings are not shallow..."

This was said in a low voice, Lian Xin didn't hear it clearly even when she was standing beside her, she just thought that her master was sad, Lian Xin said: "Master, don't be sad, she is just a Han girl, even if she is in the sky, she is just a noble person. Besides, this servant is now I have inquired about it, and it is common for some local officials to present beauties in order to please the Emperor."

"I'm not sad." Men, when they see a beautiful, delicate, and gentle Jiangnan girl, how can they not be moved?Wan Zhao yawned slightly, "Serve me to bed."

Lian Xin and the others looked at each other, thinking that Wan Zhao was sad and didn't want to talk anymore, so they silently changed Wan Zhao into pajamas and waited for her to fall asleep, but secretly felt worthless for their master.
