Chapter 28: It’s time to get a new acne
"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have rashly interfered with the cowpox issue." Lu Pheasant continued his tea talk.
As expected, Yinzhen followed up and stroked Xiao Fujin's hand: "Compared with the importance this matter brings, these small things are nothing."
He told the truth.
Originally, I was only required to recite the article silently sixty times when I went to the study. But the fourth elder brother felt that he was not as good as others, so he consciously doubled the number.
In the past, he often had calluses on his writing hands, and even more so on riding and shooting.
As for the dust on the riding range, someone is willing to compete with him and stimulate him to improve. Looking at it from another perspective, it might not be a bad thing.
The brothers were jealous of him but couldn't do anything to him.
Who is feeling more uncomfortable?
I understand everything.
Yinzhen sees clearly in his heart, and apart from pretending to be at odds with Fujin, he has no objections to this: "It's good if I can stop sleeping in the study now."
Lu Pheasant took a careful look at the young man. He was still neither humble nor arrogant despite being ostracized. He was strong and confident. He was worthy of being the winner who survived the Kangxi Laoden in the Kowloon battle. His character was indeed extraordinary.
This is different from the power of the old gangster.
The difference is between being shameless and being shameless.
Lu Pheasant felt that this habit of his was bad.
I have always looked down on the old gangster in my heart, but when I meet him, I always compare him with the little sweetheart.
Although it was because Lu Pheasant had no one else to compare with, it was unfair to Yinzhen.
Lu Zhi said warmly: "It will be good when I come back. There are many things that you have to decide when leaving the palace and building a mansion."
Yinzhen sat next to her, with almost no space between the two of them: "Does Fujin have any ideas?"
As if Lu Zhi didn't notice, he pulled out the Kanyu map she had drawn in advance and handed it over.
The most spacious position in the backyard of the new mansion, closest to the front yard, was allocated to Fujin.
Lu Zhi took a look and saw that the space was large enough, so he casually planned to build a bathtub in the clean room.
Yinzhen took it and took a look: "Does Fujin know how to swim?"
Lu Zhi was stunned. She knew how to do it, but did Xiao Liangren misunderstand that this was a pond?
...It’s not impossible.
The two of them discussed the establishment of a new mansion and slowly fell asleep.

After getting up, before Brother Si went out, Lu Zhi thought of Wu's request.
Yinzhen answered "I understand" and went out.
Today is April 30th, the day when the palace concubines go to Ningshou Palace to pay their respects.
For breakfast, there is a bowl of tender steamed eggs.
Originally, eggs were not a precious thing, but because they were not found among the brothers, they were actually rare.
We still need to send someone to the dining room to take care of things, and we can only see him every two or three days.
Not to mention my elder brother's body, the original Uranala was still young and his body bones were still developing, so he had to eat eggs.
Lu Pheasant finished a small bowl of steamed eggs and rushed to Yonghe Palace before the first quarter of the morning, so that he could arrive at Ningshou Palace in time before the midnight hour of Chenzheng.
When Sifujin first arrived, Concubine De was already ready.
She was dressed in a dark-colored flag dress and had a string of eighteen pieces on her hand. She always looked low-key and tolerant.
Lu Pheasant saluted: "My daughter-in-law, thank you Eni for solving the problem." This was because Concubine De asked Si Age to return to the backyard.
Concubine De stretched out her hand to let her take her arm, her eyes narrowed on her face: "Silly boy, what are you talking about? A harmonious family is a blessing. This kid Yinzhen only looks mature, but in fact he is aloof. He's a bit stupid again, don't take it to heart. He's just like me, so be more patient."
God, if you are so stupid, how can there be anyone in this harem who is smart?
When her mother-in-law spoke like this, Lu Zhi just nodded in agreement.
When they arrived at Ningshou Palace, almost all the concubines who were qualified to come to pay their respects had arrived.
The sisters-in-law of the younger generation gathered together, but when they got here, they couldn't get a seat, so they could only stand.
Lu Pheasant went to greet all the ladies before standing behind Concubine De.
After Concubine Hui, the first of the four concubines, took her place, Empress Dowager Bo also came out of the back hall with the support of her nuns.
Everyone present stood up one after another: "Greetings to the Queen Mother, may the Queen Mother be blessed and safe."
Queen Mother Bo was always kind and kind: "Okay, everyone, get up."
Empress Yi Fei, who ranked first in the harem as a talker, quickly answered the question, coaxing Empress Dowager Bo into laughing and nodding at her.
Finally, Queen Mother Bo glanced at Mrs. Zhang Jia, then turned to Concubine Hui and asked: "The day is getting warmer, so the vaccination of the children in the palace should be scheduled, right?"
Concubine Hui quickly replied in Mongolian: "To tell you the truth, that's right. In the past, vaccinations were done in the cool weather of autumn, but this year there is enough rain, so I think the hospital will arrange it earlier."
Since the 25th year of Kangxi's reign, the harem has used the "ripe seedling method" to vaccinate against pox. Now the age of nine and ten is between the ages of three and five, which is the right age for vaccination.
The mothers and concubines of the two are respectively the concubine Zhang Jia and the noble Yuan.
The two mothers couldn't help but become nervous when they heard this, and looked at Si Fujin behind Empress De Fei.
Lu Pheasant thought to himself, it seems that the emperor has already taken action.
Normally it would be the Beginning of Autumn and Mid-Autumn Festival, but now it is not yet May, so vaccinations must be arranged in advance. It was the Queen Mother who asked, so this matter is very close.
No wonder Zhang Jia and Yuan, as mothers, felt uneasy.
What happened in the previous dynasty will inevitably affect the harem.
Lu Pheasant looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, but he pretended not to hear anything.
After the Empress Dowager nodded, she turned to Concubine De and said, "Concubine De, you just took care of Brother Fourteen and Seven Princesses, now it's up to you to take good care of them."
Everyone's expressions changed slightly.
It stands to reason that the Zhang Jia family lived in the back hall of Changchun Palace, and the noble Yuan family lived in the back hall of Yikun Palace. Both of them were in the West Sixth Palace and were governed by the Yi Fei Empress.
Yonghe Palace belongs to the Sixth Palace in the East, but the Empress Dowager asked Concubine De to be in charge, and she found the right reason.
But everyone knows in their hearts that this matter is definitely related to the new cowpox caused by the fourth elder brother and his wife.
Concubine De didn't look at Concubine Yi's changed expression and stood up and responded respectfully.
Soon, the Queen Mother and the Third Concubine finished talking, and then said: "The prince's wedding preparations are busy, and the prince's daily life cannot be neglected. He is always afraid of heat, so ice must be prepared in advance."
The fourth concubine nodded in response.
The Queen Mother stood up and said, "Let's leave today."
Everyone exited in order of seniority.
Lu Pheasant followed Concubine De. After passing the imperial garden, Concubine De usually asked Sifu Jin to go back to her elder brother's house.
This way she doesn't have to make an extra detour.
But Concubine De did not speak today, and instead asked Ulanara to follow her to Yonghe Palace.
Seeing Concubine De asking the nuns and maids around her to read carefully the regulations prepared for the fourteenth prince's vaccination a year and a half ago.
Lu Pheasant knew from the side that this was Empress Dowager De concubine making a small start for him, and he listened very seriously.
If you hear something you don’t understand, you’ll ask immediately. The nuns also answered carefully.
However, Concubine De did not leave Ulanara to have lunch in Yonghe Palace, but asked her to go back first while the sun was not shining.
Lu Zhi held the new snack box and was still reviewing the precautions for vaccination.
After returning to the elder brother's office, before the fourth elder brother came back from get out of class in the study room, he heard that the hospital had prepared the new cowpox for the two princesses.
The person who requested the order is said to be the prince of Yuqing Palace - Yinreng.
