[Qing Chuan] The Empress Dowager Raising Cubs Daily

Kangxi could not help smiling when he heard Yongqian's lofty ambition.With great pride in his chest, he said with a loud smile: "In that case, I will leave this matter to you, my eighth brother!"

Yongqian's deep voice should be.

His reaction was calm and indifferent, the more so the more satisfied Kangxi was.After Yongqian retired, Kangxi couldn't help but tell Huang Erniang how satisfied and happy he was with Yongqian's ambition.

Longxi Yongqian was several years old.

As the so-called elder brother is like a father, although Kangxi is not an elder brother, he also watched with his own eyes a few children grow up from a small group who can't speak clearly, and gradually grow into a handsome young man, full of enthusiasm, step by step towards his goal .

Kangxi sighed very much.

Looking back, he stared at Baoqing, Baocheng and Baoshun, and couldn't help sighing softly: "I think back then, how many Yonggan were younger than them..."

Qiqige's eyes were gentle: "Isn't it?"

Baocheng pricked up his ears, his face full of curiosity: "Mama Huang, Ama Khan, are you talking about... the Eighth Emperor?"

These emperor uncles, whom he had never seen in his previous life, were the most curious existence of Baocheng.It's a pity that Prince Qishou of Thailand is far away in Heilongjiang, and it's not something he wanted to see in the past few years; Prince Chun Longxi followed Jin Fu, the governor of the river, to manage the river, and has not yet returned to the capital.

The last one left is Prince Rui Yongqian.

Prince Rui was indeed in the capital, but...Baocheng recalled every time he saw Prince Rui—the other party was in a hurry most of the time, and there was not even a chance to say a word or two other than nodding.

Kangxi looked down at Baocheng.

He smiled slightly: "Yes, this is your Eighth Emperor Uncle. Your Eighth Emperor Uncle is eager to learn and knowledgeable, especially good at foreign languages ​​and knowledge. If you are interested, you can ask about it."

Baocheng obediently agrees.

Just when he was about to inquire some more, Kangxi's attention was attracted by Qiqige's words.

Qiqige mentioned another matter: "Emperor, the imported goods in the House of Internal Affairs should also be tidied up."

Yongqian's discovery is alarming.

Qiqige pondered for a while, and then reminded: "Such utensils are randomly placed in the warehouse, if it is not mentioned by Yonggan, it may never see the light of day, or be obtained by people who should not have it. "

Kangxi looked solemn.

Kangxi sighed and said: "I understand what the Queen's mother thinks, so I will order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to sort out many tributes immediately, and verify all sources and uses."

Before the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs could breathe a sigh of relief, they faced overtime hell again.Kangxi ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to reorganize the extraneous tributes accumulated over the years, determine the efficacy and use, register and report them in a unified manner.

Qiqige was quite curious about this.

Anyway, Xiyuan was only half a day away from the Forbidden City, and there was still time to get up early and return late—the slowness of moving from the Forbidden City to Xiyuan on the first day was purely due to etiquette requirements on the way.

Hearing that the empress dowager wanted to go back and take a look, Kangxi didn't take it seriously either.He immediately sent guards to escort the Empress Dowager, Prince Baocheng, Baoqing and Baoshun back to the Forbidden City.

Qiqige returned to the palace with her three children.

The first thing they did when they returned to the palace was to go to the yard where the tributes were placed, and they planned to take advantage of the opportunity of the palace staff to sort it out, to do some research and see if they could find some unique things in the tribute pile like Yongqian. of rarities.

Apart from Baocheng, who could maintain a calm expression, Qiqige, Baoqing, and Baoshun were already full of curiosity, chattering and discussing: "I don't know if there will be something that is cherished and fun?"

"It would be nice if it was delicious!"

"The delicious ones are probably broken..." Baoqing replied hesitantly.

"That—an animal never seen before!"

"...emmmmm" Baoqing thought it might not be possible.

If there were to be animals...

I'm afraid he's already dead?Baoqing scratched her cheek, looked at Baoshun's shining eyes with some hesitation, and didn't want to speak out her guess.

But he didn't expect that there was Baocheng by his side.

Without the slightest hesitation, he said, "Idiot, I guess the words of the animals - they must have been eaten!"

Baoshun was struck by lightning.

Big teardrops swirled in his eyes, Baoshun sniffed hard: "Eat, did you eat it?"

Baoshun's sudden crying was something that Baocheng never expected, his expression changed drastically, and he changed his words hastily: "You're just joking, if you want to come to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, you will definitely be sent to the livestock center to take care of you."

"Really, really?"

"Of course it's true. How dare those servants dispose of the tribute items without authorization." Baocheng replied firmly, finally making Baoshun laugh out of tears.

Unfortunately, Baocheng's self-confidence did not last for half an hour.

Qiqige and his group came to the warehouse happily, but before they could go in, they were stopped by a group of servants in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"What's going on here?"

"...The servant pays respects to the Empress Dowager. The warehouse is very dirty and messy. It is really not suitable for the Empress Dowager, His Highness the Crown Prince, and all the elder brothers to stay here..." The head steward smiled and explained cautiously.

Qiqige disagrees.

She waved her hand and signaled the palace people to move away: "Aijia doesn't care, it doesn't matter if it's messy, just treat it as a treasure hunt game - don't you think so?"

Baoshun should be happy.

Baocheng and Baoqing didn't mind playing with their younger brother, they were only half a beat behind and agreed at the same time.

The servant in charge wanted to say more, but this time Qiqige was impatient.She lowered her face and said lightly, "Tana."

With a straight face, Tana led a group of palace servants a few steps forward.Their actions were very rough and arrogant, they pushed away the stewards and servants of the House of Internal Affairs who stood in front of them, and pushed open the door of the warehouse.

All the people in the courtyard cast their gazes.

Qiqige stepped into it, looking at the scene in front of her in surprise—what's going on! ?

The yard was a mess.

All kinds of utensils were piled up everywhere, and the courtyard was full of kneeling people from the underground palace.

The only one standing is Galu, the minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Baocheng has some impressions of him—in his previous life, Galu was ordered to raise his elder brother Yinyi who was still in his infancy, and he also used this to enter the Mingzhu Party and became one of Yinyi and Mingzhu's strong supporters.

In this life, Baoqing didn't know him at all.

Think about the arrogance and domineering appearance of Yinxuan in her previous life, and then look at the amiable, tolerant, straightforward Baoqing in this life...

I'm afraid it's not the Galu in front of me who raises Yinlin so crookedly! ?

Baocheng's favorability towards Galu directly dropped to a negative number, and he watched him with his brows furrowed.

Galu is not in a good mood.

He glared angrily at the steward who hurriedly followed in, then took a step forward, flicked his sleeves with both hands, and knelt down on one knee to say hello: "Slave Galu, hello to the empress dowager, hello to the crown prince, to the fourth elder brother, five Brother, please be safe!"

Qiqige cried out.

Then she glanced at the servants all over the floor, and asked lightly, "What's wrong?"

Ga Lugong said in a loud voice: "Reporting to the Empress Dowager, these slaves are not paying attention, and they are about to teach them a lesson."

Qiqige nodded: "I see."

Before Galu's heart settled down, Qiqige laughed again: "What mistake did you make, but why don't you tell Aijia about it?"

Galu's heartbeat slowed down by half a beat.

He forced himself to calm down, and stammered back: "...This, all, are all small..."

Baocheng scoffed.

Just as he was about to speak to remind Huang Mama, Qiqige's voice sounded in his ears.

Qiqige looked around, then raised her eyebrows.She clapped her hands lightly: "Wow, so in the eyes of Master Galu, embezzling royal tributes is also a... trivial matter?"

Galu's knees gave way, and he fell to his knees with a croak.

Qiqige looked at the crowd with a smile: "Come on, give the gift list to Aijia to have a look."

The servants and stewards all swallowed their saliva.

Qiqige turned to comfort the three children: "Our treasure hunt game is suspended, let's learn arithmetic first, okay?"

Baocheng and Baoqing have no opinion.

Baoshun didn't know what counting was, but seeing how his fourth brother and fifth brother were eager to try, he happily raised his hand to agree.

There is a gift list for all the tribute items outside the episode, and what Qiqige and his party have to do is to sort out and check according to the gift list.The check was only one-tenth, and the smile on Qiqige's face could no longer be maintained.

The contents in the warehouse and the gift list cannot be said to be exactly the same, it can only be said that they are irrelevant.

Galu kowtowed heavily: "The servant is not strict, and he deserves death!"

Qiqige has other ideas.

She looked at Galu curiously: "Is it because you are not strict with your subordinates, or are you colluding?"

Galu's lips trembled.

He wanted to explain, but Qiqige was too lazy to ask.Qiqige waved her hand casually: "That's all, you can explain this matter to the emperor."

Qiqige sent people to inform the queen and find another group of palace people to handle the matter.Except for some of the food, and some of the tributes resold by the daring, the rest were sorted and placed properly.

By the way, there are really rare animals one or two.

It's just that on the roster, these rare beasts that came from far away places and struggled to survive to the Qing Dynasty finally became two light words: death.

Baoshun burst into tears.

Baocheng had to rack his brains to comfort his younger brother, and at the same time cursed Galu in his heart.

Finished probably.

Qiqige also began to look around curiously, flipping through the tribute items.At this time, the Qing Dynasty was still the most powerful among the surrounding countries, and the offerings were undoubtedly top-grade local ones.

I'm afraid they never imagined that these most precious tributes would be discarded with disdain, and no one would look at them for several years, ten years or even decades.

For example, in front of this group of wooden dolls named Matroshka, the steward at the side said respectfully: "Empress Dowager, this is a group of toys that Raksha Kingdom paid tribute to, and they look a bit plain..."

Weird shapes, weird colors.

Even if the best red sandalwood was used, the officials only got a light sentence: "It's really a waste of money!"

The well-informed officials dismissed it, and even secretly ridiculed that the Raksha people are rare and strange, and they actually regard this kind of thing as a treasure, and discard it in disgust.

Qiqige laughed: "Really?"

She thought it was quite cute, and she brought it to Baocheng and the others with great interest: "Do you know what kind of toy this is?"

"Is it... a tumbler?"

"Not."

"Yes... isn't it a toy but a container?" Baoshun shook the biggest doll in his arms.

"Why do you say that?" Baoqing looked at him suspiciously.

"Because it's so big and it's made of wood, but Baoshun can lift it up?"

Baoqing took the wow wah, and couldn't help but shake it too.

Although there is no sound, it feels light and ethereal just like Baoshun said, and it doesn't look solid at all.

Baoqing swayed curiously, and suddenly there was a slight clicking sound in his ears, and then the doll directly turned into two pieces.

Baoqing and Baoshun, who were engrossed, were taken aback at the same time.They were all shocked, jumping straight up like frightened little rabbits, looking at the toy that suddenly died at the scene in amazement.

Baocheng laughed out loud.

He covered his mouth and laughed endlessly: "It's just that the buckle of the toy is opened, look how scared you are?"

Baoqing and Baoshun: ...

They took a closer look and found that the toy was really just as Baocheng said, and both of their faces blushed.

Baocheng shook his head: "How dare you?"

He looked at Baoqing with a smile: "The future Batulu?"

Then he looked at Baoshun again: "Baoshun, if you learn from the fourth brother, I'm afraid that in the future... hey."

A blue vein popped up on Baoqing's forehead.

He narrowed his eyes and stared at Baocheng, clenching his fists, but this time he was the one who was really frightened.The aggrieved Baoqing had nothing to say, and only sneered: "Brother, don't be caught by this elder brother next time!"

Baocheng stuck out his tongue.

This kind of threat has been familiar to him in his previous life, and even Baocheng said calmly and nodded towards Baoqing: "Then it depends on your ability, fourth brother."
