[Qing Chuan] The Empress Dowager Raising Cubs Daily

The splashed water even fell a few drops on Qiqige's face.

Even though it was such a few drops of water, she felt that she was slapped several times by that nasty big fish.

Qiqige's eyes were sharp.

She coldly glanced at the place where the fish fell, and a raging flame burst out behind her.

Today, I have to catch fish!

Qiqige picked up the fishing rod and concentrated on starting fishing again.

It's just that after tossing for a long time, I didn't catch it.

The most disgusting thing was that the big fish was still circling around the hook, and the distance was so close that several palace men were eager to try it with their nets.

Duan Min rubbed his fists: "That's it, catch it!"

The palace people answered in a low voice, approaching the big fish step by step.

Qiqige: "...Stop!"

It would be a disgrace to him if he caught this big fish directly!Qiqi became angry and shifted the hook, and had to use fishing methods to catch this big fish.

Big fish just don't take the bait.

Even after Kikig circled it with the hook two or three times, the fish seemed impatient.As soon as its tail slapped the water, it disappeared without a trace.

Duan Min was disappointed: "The fish have all escaped!"

She looked at the bucket with only a few small fish swimming there, with a look of disappointment on her face: "Tonight's grilled fish is gone..."

Qiqige pretended not to hear Duanmin's complaint.

She geared up to continue her great fishing career, but it was a pity that after the news passed, no one could see even the small fish, let alone the big fish.

The surface of the lake was calm.

Qiqige was holding a fishing rod, her mind went blank, and Zhou Gong's call made her eyelids become heavier and heavier.Suddenly there was a "click" in her ear, and Qiqige opened her eyes wide: "Fish—huh?"

Not to mention fish shadows.

It was clear that she let go of her hand and dropped the fishing rod to the ground.

Going down... Can you really catch fish?

Looking at the sun that had already set on the west side at some point, and touching her hungry stomach after eating only a bowl of fish soup noodles at noon, Qiqige was full of sadness.

Would you like to bring some fish from the dining room?

As soon as his thoughts fell, Duan Min who was beside him looked at Ergenjueluogege in surprise: "Have you ever fished before?"

Ergen felt that Luo Gege had a big blush.

After she noticed the Empress Dowager's gaze, she was even more ashamed and anxious.Heshelige grabbed her hand: Don't panic, just say it a little bit. "

Ergenjue Luogege took two deep breaths.

She managed to regain her composure: "This servant has gone fishing with Ama several times... Maybe, maybe the place is different, and the bait to use is different."

Speaking of the latter, Ergenjue Luogege also gradually let go.

She whispered: "My servant saw that Ah Ma has changed the bait several times, some are dough, some are small shrimps and fish, and some are earth worms."

"Is there such a thing as saying?"

"Empress Dowager, can I have a look at the bait?" Hesheli said politely.

Qiqige smiled: "Of course there is no problem."

The fishing rod was quickly pulled up, and the bait hanging on the hook was a dough made of shrimp meat, soybeans, and rice flour.

"Would you like to change it to something else?"

"Small shrimp, small fish, or ground worms?"

There are no shrimps, but there are small fish.

The small fish that fell earlier were cut into small pieces, hung on the hook, and thrown down again.The problem is that there are only a few small fish caught just now, and the palace servants who went to the dining room to get other fish and shrimps have not returned yet, so what should be put on the remaining hooks?

There is another option: earth worms.

Ergenjueluogege whispered: "My servant heard that as long as the vegetation is prosperous, there are earthworms in wet and muddy places."

Hesheligege stood up and took two steps.

She looked around and quickly picked up a small shovel and dug in the muddy ground by the pond.

Duan Min and the others came over curiously to check.

Just looking at them, their faces turned pale with fright, and they all took a step back.

Qiqige looked up.

Hesheli Gege lowered his head, concentrating on picking earthworms.

In the end, she chose the fattest one with satisfaction.

The smile on Heshe Ligege's face was so contented that it made everyone feel a bit chilly.

Even Qiqige respected her.

She thought about it for a while, and then asked curiously: "... isn't Hesherigegger afraid of bugs?"

"Slaves are of course afraid of bugs."

"..." Qiqige glanced at the earthworm she was holding in her fingers, which was cruelly cut into several sections, and asked after a moment of silence, "But you don't seem to be afraid of... bugs?"

"Hey? How come!"

"Obviously it is! Don't you feel disgusting when you pinch the worm?" Duan Min's face was wrinkled into a ball, "Look, look! It's still twisting and twisting!"

Heshe Lige looked down at the earthworm.

She smiled slightly: "It's not a bug, it's just a ground worm, a kind of fish feed."

Don't hypnotize yourself!

Even Qiqige couldn't help complaining.

She watched as Heshelig handled the earthworm smoothly, hung it on the remaining few hooks stably, and then vigorously threw out the fishing rod. The hook drew a beautiful arc in the air and stably plunged into the water .

Qiqige: ...?

Doesn't look like a novice?

"...Does Hershey like fishing too?"

"No, servants don't like it." Hesheli's smile didn't reach his eyes, "It's just that Mafa likes it very much, and he also said that fishing is a kind of self-cultivation, and you have to be fine... Occasionally teach the servants some knowledge, haha .”

Qiqige: ………

It can be seen that Hesheligege has a lot of resentment towards Sony.

Maybe it was because of the change of bait, after a cup of tea, they really caught a big fish.

Now everyone is excited.

After catching a fish, it seems that their fishing luck has finally arrived.

The big fish were hooked one by one.

Soon the buckets around everyone were filled to the brim, and even because there were too many, Qiqige threw some smaller fish back into the water.

The fat big fish was thumping vigorously, making everyone who caught it happy from ear to ear.After counting the number of big fish, Qiqige held up a hand: "Let's have a grilled fish banquet~!"

Everyone cheered together.

Soon the palace people sent the grill, and a few clever little eunuchs came to help.They quickly cleaned the fish, brushed it with the secret barbecue sauce of the Imperial Dining Room, and put the marinated grilled fish on the grill.

Others served with some delicious vegetable skewers...

etc!This is not the grilled fish I want.

Qiqige asked someone to find a big iron basin and put it on the stove, and made a new bowl of sauce, put the grilled fish that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and put in frozen tofu, yuba, bean skin, and lotus root slices. , Flammulina velutipes and cabbage and other ingredients, and finally add broth.

The strange approach attracted a lot of attention.

The iron basin boiled quickly, exuding a charming aroma, not to mention how nice it sounds.

And... looks delicious too.

The Empress Dowager came at the right time with Xiao Kangxi and others. Of course, the Empress Dowager who was angry still couldn't eat it, so she could only look at it curiously, and asked by the way: "What kind of taste is it, is it good?"

Xiao Kangxi is very honest: "The fish is tender and fragrant, the skin is a bit crispy, but the inside is soft and juicy, and the fish bones are so crisp that you can chew it, it is very fragrant and delicious."

The empress dowager's face darkened.

It is not a good thing to suddenly feel that the emperor is too sincere.

Like now.

His vivid description made his stomach growl.Obviously the grilled fish in hand is delicious, but it feels so wrong!

The Empress Dowager looked at Little Kangxi, that was not pleasing to the eye!

Qiqige noticed the empress dowager's small eyes of resentment, and couldn't help secretly laughing.

It's just that the empress dowager got very angry, so it's really not suitable for spicy grilled fish.Qiqige thought about it for a while, and asked the dining room to change the taste a little, reducing chili, adding fermented soybeans and other seasonings, and then adding freshly made tofu flower, making it a popular grilled fish with bean curd in later generations.

Although grilled fish with bean curd is better than spicy grilled fish, the Empress Dowager still can't eat more.Therefore, only a small dish was sent to the Empress Dowager in the end.

The Empress Dowager stared at the small plate of grilled fish, and the corners of her mouth twitched.She raised her eyes to look at Qiqige who was full of anticipation, but still lowered her head and tasted it.

"Emperor, does it taste good?"

"...That's right." The Empress Dowager nodded lightly, but there was still a sentence that lingered on the tip of her tongue, but she didn't say it in the end--such a point, there is not much flavor at all.

After eating and drinking warm, a group of people sat by the lake and looked ahead.

It was spring, and the scenery by the lake was just right.The green branches and leaves of weeping willows along the coast dance with the wind, forming a scene with the reflection in the lake.In the afterglow of the setting sun, the water of the lake is golden, like a picture scroll, which makes people linger and forget to return.

This is a scene that cannot be seen in the Forbidden City.

The last time I saw her was in her previous life, Qiqige was in a trance, and for several days in the morning, noon and evening, she would walk along the lake, taking in all the rare scenery.

The more you see, the more you think.

Having been busy with the affairs of the harem for several years, Qiqige gradually began to forget her past self.Looking back, she was a little shocked, and then a little terrified. In order to integrate into this era, this harem, she seems to have forgotten herself?

What did you want to do in the first place?

Live well, and let the children who would otherwise die live.But how long has it been since I asked about the progress of the hospital, and how long has it been since I read books to continue studying?

Qiqige stood by the lake, doing nothing.

She was blowing the gradually warmer breeze, and the expression in her eyes became firm again.

Qiqige's abnormal appearance made Xiao Kangxi a little worried.

During dinner that day, he said with a serious face: "My son will definitely build a big garden for Huang Erniang in the future, and move all the scenery from all over the world into it, so that Huang Erniang can have a good time."

Qiqige was taken aback for a moment, then burst out laughing.

She rubbed little Kangxi's head: "The Ai family is waiting for the emperor's gift?"

Chang Ning gently grabbed Qiqige's robe corner: "Is the Queen all right?"

Qiqige hugged Chang Ning, and gently chirped his cheek: "Of course it's okay!"

Just remembering something I had forgotten.

The first thing Qiqige, who was in high spirits, asked about the progress of the smallpox vaccine.

It's been half a year since I mentioned it last time?

Little Kangxi was well aware of this matter, and quickly gave the answer: "The smallpox vaccine will be formally tested for young children in the Imperial Hospital in a few days. If there are no accidents—maybe when this year enters summer, we can prepare to plant the smallpox vaccine for Qishou. up."

Qiqige's eyelashes trembled slightly.

She was excited and excited, but just about to ask about it, she suddenly remembered the test with young children.

Qiqige's smile froze on her face.

Her throat seemed to be blocked, and she sighed softly after a while: "Where did those experimental children... come from?"

Xiao Kangxi's brows and eyes were slightly startled.

Then he said in a harmonious voice: "They are all boys who have been sold to the office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. They must be prepared to enter the palace. The minister has made a decree. Those who voluntarily participate in the smallpox experiment do not need to enter the palace cleanly. They can be placed in the palace in the future." Live on the farm."

Qiqige breathed a sigh of relief.

Her face was gentle, and she said again: "Speaking of which, the Ai family has always had an idea."

"Emperor, what do you say?"

"For example, should the imperial physicians in charge of this matter, famous doctors from all over the country, the ministers who have contributed to this matter for a long time, and those who participated in the experiment before record their surnames and origins as a tribute to future generations. "

Little Kangxi was thoughtful.

Except for a small number of prisoners who are for commutation or for money, there are more people who sacrifice their lives for righteousness.

For example, the two imperial doctors in charge of this matter, as well as the famous acne doctors from all over the world, they devoted their whole lives, and even brought their family members, relatives and friends to participate in the experiment.

Little Kangxi nodded.

He solemnly replied: "What the Queen Mother said is very reasonable. After the experiment is over, I will arrange someone to do it."
