[Qing Chuan] The Empress Dowager Raising Cubs Daily

This way, this way, and this way.

Kangxi expressionlessly squeezed out a dumpling with a perfect shape, which was absolutely indistinguishable from the dumpling army.

With a click, it was placed into the army of dumplings.

Handsome and confident movements, quick and neat speed, when the dumpling fell, Baocheng, who was still struggling with the dumpling, suddenly raised his head.His eyes fell directly on the dumpling, and then Baocheng's movements froze. He looked at the dumplings he had made, and then at Kangxi's finished products, feeling a little disappointed: "Khan Ama is... the first time Make dumplings?"

hateful!Lost by myself!

Qiqige saw Baocheng's unhappiness, and quickly exposed Kangxi's little trick: "You Khan Ama has done it before, and the first time you did it, it's not as good as yours!"

The handsome Kangxi's shell was torn off within three breaths.

Under the contemptuous gazes of Baocheng and Baoqing, he didn't change his face, and said confidently: "I am just teasing you and Baoqing, who knows that you two actually take it seriously."

Baocheng and Baoqing puffed up their cheeks.

They accused Kangxi unjustly one after another, Qiqige, the empress and a group of concubines were helping out, and there was a lot of people's voices and the scene was lively.

The smile on Concubine Tong's face gradually froze.

The Queen, Concubine Hui, and Concubine Rong were talking about their children, Qi Qige quoted scriptures from time to time, and gave responses based on the childhood experiences of Kangxi and others, let alone the concubines.

I have never seen a pig running or eaten pork.

In the past, they who watched the emperor and others grow up can also say something. The only one who comforted Concubine Tong was Princess Gongxi.

Princess Gongxi has been married for several years, but still has no children.

The ones who grew up now are still the children left by Fei Yanggu's former wife. Although Princess Gongxi raised them up with her own hands, they are different after all.

Concubine Tong glanced at Princess Gongxi.

Surprisingly, Princess Gongxi not to mention that there is no worry and worry in her brows, but she even looked at her with kindness?

Concubine Tong was a little puzzled, but also a little mocking.

Maybe Princess Gongxi has accepted the reality?As soon as Concubine Tong's thoughts fell, the empress dowager's joyful laughter sounded in her ears: "Speaking of the emperor, the Ai family has some good news to tell you!"

Kangxi looked curious.

He thought for a while: "Baocheng has learned new poems?"

Qiqige glared at him: "No."

Kangxi smiled awkwardly, and turned his eyes to Baoshun again: "Could it be that Baoshun will call Ama?"

Qiqige laughed: "You are beautiful."

She poked Baoshun's cheek: "Baoshun can talk, Mama was the first one to shout."

Baoshun giggled happily.

He waved his chubby little hands and yelled.

Mawu and Mamo.

Qiqige is full of confidence in this.

nor this...

Kangxi was distressed for a moment, and suddenly became ecstatic.His eyes were fixed on the queen's stomach, and his voice trembled slightly: "Could it be that the queen is pregnant again!?"

Qiqige hesitated: "Half and half?"

Kangxi was instantly lost: "Is that Concubine Hui or Concubine Rong?"

Qiqige waved her hand: "No! It's Gongxi who is pregnant!"

Kangxi opened his eyes wide, looking at Princess Gongxi in surprise.Compared with Duan Min, who married far away from Mongolia and gave birth to her eldest son the next year, Princess Gongxi has not heard of her pregnancy for a long time.

Qiqige, Kangxi and others said it was impossible not to worry.

It's just that Fei Yanggu has been away fighting for months and years, and he only returns home for a few months every year... This fact cannot be forced.In addition, Fei Yanggu's eldest son, Chen Tai, is also lively and lovely, and has a very close relationship with Princess Gongxi, and he only let go of his worries when he came and went to the palace.

Letting go of worry doesn't mean losing hope.

Kangxi was overjoyed when he heard that Princess Gongxi was pregnant, and quickly supported her to sit beside her to rest: "Have you ever asked the imperial doctor to see it? How many months have you been pregnant? Are you feeling comfortable? If you need anything, just go to the palace and ask the queen, no No, no! I think all the food and medicine will be dialed out from the palace in the future... and there are also... ba ba ba, ba ba ba, ba ba ba ba ba ba

Kangxi's tuberculosis attribute broke out instantly.

He had to give detailed instructions on everything, and soon there were no other voices in the palace, only Kangxi's chanting was left.

Everyone looked helpless.

The Empress Dowager and Empress's eyes were empty, and the concubine, concubine and Fujin were also used to it, and they even nodded cooperatively, and echoed twice.

Qiqige's temples throbbed.

Seeing that Kangxi was chattering and chattering endlessly, she finally couldn't bear it anymore.Qiqige coughed hard and interrupted Kangxi's words: "Speaking of which, Gongxi is pregnant for the first time, and there is no one at home to help manage it. Would the emperor let Yang Fujin go out of the palace to live in Dong'e's mansion for a while? He can take care of her." Congratulations."

Kangxi's voice stopped abruptly.

Gongxi was stunned for a moment, and Yang Fujin was also stunned.

But after three breaths, she came to her senses again: "I thank the empress dowager for her kindness, but as a concubine of the first emperor, how can I go out of the palace? I can bless Gongxi in the palace of compassion, and I can see the child in the future , being a concubine is enough."

Qiqige frowned slightly: "But..."

Yang Fujin's brows and eyes are gentle: "Master is generous and gentle. I have always taken care of the others and the children. I am grateful for the kindness of the concubine. I don't want the master to bear the burden for such things..."

Before he finished speaking, Kangxi smiled.

He smiled at Yang Fujin and said, "I think it's a good idea for Queen Mother to think about it!"

Yang Fujin opened his eyes blankly.

Kangxi turned to look at the Garden of Compassionate Ninggong, his eyes seemed to travel back in time, back to that day more than ten years ago.

Kangxi will never forget the scene when Empress Xiao Kangzhang passed away. His voice was choked with sobs: "I want to raise my son, but I will not wait for my relatives. I have known the weight of this sentence a long time ago. I tossed and turned, regretting and annoyed. If I could spend more time with the emperor Mother, it would be better to stay with Huang Erniang a little longer, just a little longer."

The queen mother here refers to Empress Xiaokangzhang.

Qiqige felt sour in her heart, and couldn't help recalling the scene back then.

In the blink of an eye, that was ten years ago.

Her eyes were in a trance, the tall and stalwart Kangxi and the thin and haggard little Kangxi seemed to merge together.Qiqige took a step forward subconsciously, stretched out her arms to hug Kangxi, hugged him just like that time, and patted his back lightly.

Just thinking about it, Kangxi felt sadness rushing forward like a tide, and he felt the pain piercing his heart.

The empress's embrace was the balm at that time, and it is also today.Kangxi also hugged Qiqige, and then looked at Yang Fujin who was at a loss. There was still a respectful expression of expectation and anxiety in his eyes without saying a word. He suddenly felt that he should have made another decision a long time ago: "In the next few days Every concubine can go out of the palace to be cared for by the palaces of the princes and princesses, so as to fulfill the filial piety of the brothers and sisters!"

As soon as the words came out, there was an instant uproar.

Concubine Ning Yu was the first to be moved, and her body shook. The concubine with children was happy, but the concubine without children was not sad, but they gathered in front of Concubine Ning Yu in twos and threes, and congratulated happily.

More than ten years have passed, and the toffees have become good sisters.

Let alone jealousy, everyone congratulated each other from the bottom of their hearts.

Concubine Ning Yu was happy but also a little apprehensive.

The empress dowager did not refuse, but she did not fully agree. She reminded the emperor: "This matter should be discussed with the clan's family. What level can serve the concubine? At what age can the concubine leave the palace? How to arrange the daily life of the Empress Dowager... needs to be set out in a regulation."

Kangxi was full of energy, and he agreed with great energy.

Thinking of the Queen's Mother who had passed away for a long time, he couldn't help thinking of his cousin Tong, but it was much rarer to feel pity.Kangxi raised his eyes to look at Concubine Tong, but the moment he saw her expression, Kangxi's sympathy was fleeting, and even a little more shock and doubt.

Concubine Tong, what kind of attitude is this! ?

Concubine Tong's complexion was not good, she hadn't woken up from the good news of Princess Gongju's pregnancy, and she didn't notice the change of topic at all.

Concubine Tong forced a smile.

Looking at the Empress, Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong, and seeing how Princess Gongxi was admired by all the stars, it was as if someone had forcefully poured a big pot of mature vinegar, her whole heart was sour.

If only I had a child myself--

Concubine Tong pursed her lips tightly, feeling unhappy, so she didn't notice that the emperor's eyes were getting colder and colder.

Others are busy congratulating, but Concubine Tong is busy showing face?

Or does it mean that she thinks my ideas are not on the table?

No matter what the reason is, if Concubine Tong originally had a barely passing [-] points in Kangxi's heart, and the filter of Empress Xiao Kangzhang could barely reach [-] points, then now it is all smashed to the bottom, and it has not become a negative number. It's all about filters.

Kangxi looked away, feeling unhappy.

Qiqige thought that Kangxi was immersed in the past, she clapped her hands quickly, and said with a loud smile: "Come on, everyone sit down, let's start making potstickers and eating?"

The charm of pot stickers comes from on-site production.

The empress dowager spoke, and the palace people quickly set up the stove and put a huge iron pot on it.The cook brushed a layer of oil on the pot quickly, and then placed the wrapped pot stickers neatly on the top.

A large pot is filled with pot stickers.

Baoqing stared at the pot stickers intently, seeing that the cook hadn't moved for a while, he hurriedly urged: "Hurry up and make it?"

Qiqige hugged Baoqing: "Be patient with pot stickers."

Baoqing looked at the crackling oil in the pan, worry was written all over his face: "But this is an oil pan? It will burn off after a long time!"

Qiqige laughed: "Don't worry!"

Seeing that Baoqing was still worried, Qiqige estimated the time: "Then how about counting down with Mama Huang?"

"Ten, nine, eight..."

"Seven, six, five..."

"Four, three—two—one!"

After the words fell, the cook picked up a potsticker.

The bottom of the pot stickers is light golden yellow, without a trace of burnt bottom.

At this time, pour in the starch water and cover the pot.

As the creaking sound inside gradually becomes lighter, it is replaced by a strong aroma. Then open it, sprinkle with sesame seeds and shallots, and simmer for a while, the aroma is tangy, and the index finger-moving potstickers are out of the oven.

Qiqige got one for Kangxi first, and then another for Baoqing, Baocheng and Lingyi.

Keep moving your nose.

The tempting aroma lingers on the tip of the nose, dipped in some chili and vinegar, and then put it in the mouth with a sip.The teeth are pushed up and down, and the first thing to feel is the crispness from the bottom baked with oil, followed by the soft and firm resistance of the dough, and finally the deliciousness and juiciness of the filling.

Triple delicacy, hitting the mouth like a huge wave.

Baoqing held her cheeks, and a small flower was about to appear behind her: "The pot stickers are delicious~"

Especially if you make it yourself, it is delicious!

Baocheng also picked up one quickly. Although it looks a bit ugly, the taste is not inferior at all.He nodded happily, rarely agreeing with Baoqing's answer: "Indeed, it's delicious!"

Qiqige and others also put it into their mouths one after another.

Immediately, praises rang out in the yard, and after tasting a few potstickers, the steamed stuffed buns were also brought forward.

Concubine Tong also attended the banquet absent-mindedly, and returned to Chengqian Palace as soon as it was over.She called out Nanny Zhou and asked, "How is Wu Ya promised?"

Nanny Zhou responded with a smile: "Seeing Wu Ya's promise, the servant girl likes to do needlework on weekdays, and occasionally reads two pages of books."

"Reading?" Concubine Tong's expression darkened.

"Master, don't worry, it's the first palace rule, and Wu Ya promised that she hasn't read it until now!" Nanny Zhou quickly explained.

Concubine Tong's complexion improved slightly.

She reminded her again: "Let the palace servants keep an eye on it, and Wu Yashi is not allowed to read other books, do you understand?"

Nanny Zhou agreed.

Concubine Tong's eyes fell on the pile of sedan chairs brought back from the Compassionate Ning Palace, and her eyes were filled with boredom.She waved her hand: "By the way, these pastries should be picked up and rewarded by Wu Ya."

Nanny Zhou opened her mouth.

But seeing the angry look of the master, she didn't persuade him anymore, and then picked up the food box and hurried to the backyard.

Wu Ya agreed to live in the top room of the East Side Hall.

Nanny Zhou walked along the Chaoshou corridor for a while, and at the corner, she could see the top room with open windows.

It can be seen from the outside that Wu Ya agreed.

Wu Ya agreed to sit at the pit table. She was doing her needlework with her head down, her expression very focused.Wu Ya promised to dress very plainly. Although Concubine Tong rewarded her with some fashionable palace clothes and some bright-colored cloth, Wu Ya promised to still wear a simple and elegant light green palace dress, and her black and glossy hair was also tied up. It was braided and hung down on her chest. If it wasn't for the jade hairpin stuck on top of her head, she might have mistaken it for a palace maid at first glance.

Nanny Zhou frowned slightly.

She knocked on the door respectfully, pushed the door open after Wu Ya promised to speak out.Nanny Zhou put the food box on the round table, then turned to Wu Ya and promised with a smile: "Master Wu Ya, this is a reward that the master brought back from the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and it was specially sent to Miss Wu Ya for you to taste." .”

Wu Ya agreed to squat and thanked for the reward.

Then Nanny Zhou restrained her smile, and said in a warm voice: "Your servant knows that the young master is still a little unaccustomed to her identity, but the master is the master, and the servant is the servant... You should change your clothes and jewelry earlier, so as not to be a little bit uncomfortable. It hurts the heart of the master to choose cloth for you!"

Wu Ya promised to move her fingers slightly.

Then she lowered her head and answered yes in a low voice.

Nanny Zhou couldn't bear the stuffy gourd's temper.

When she turned to leave, she was still muttering secretly, no wonder Wu Ya promised to have a good looks, but she was just an ordinary handyman before being selected.

Nanny Zhou left quickly.

Wu Ya promised to be silent and turned around, she walked to the table and opened the food box with her own hands.

Inside is a small bun in the shape of an animal.

Wu Ya promised with a wow, she stretched out her hand to poke, "... so cute."

After watching for a while, she twisted one and put it in her mouth.

The entrance is soft on the outside, but on the inside is the sweet taste that Wu Ya promised never tasted before. The milky yellow sauce is overflowing, and it is a little cold, but it can't hide its own deliciousness: "...delicious!"
