Chapter 162: New Year's Day 3 Chapters

After the New Year’s Eve dinner, Xia Luo arranged the emperor and the concubine to stay in the room where Situ Jin lived.

This one is built according to modern facilities.

There is a bathroom, a refrigerator, a washing machine, and an air conditioner in the room, all powered by solar energy. Each machine is charged during the day and can be used at night. Situ Jin and Xia Luo basically rest in the space, so this is just a decoration.

Situ Jin was afraid that they didn't know what to do, so he taught them how to use the shower and how to switch between hot and cold water.

Turn on the air conditioner and tell them not to move. We're staying here for three days, so it's okay to keep the air conditioner on.

The emperor touched this and looked at that.

Concubine Xi is also like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden, her eyes are not enough.

"My son, are these things from Southeast Asia?" Concubine Xi was curious because these things were not even available in the royal palace, let alone among the common people.

"Yes. Luo Luo bought them all from Nanyang. Let's try them out for now. If there's no danger, I'll get another set for my father and mother."

Situ Jin was afraid that they would not accept this novelty, so he said this.

"Things from Southeast Asia are new and novel." The emperor already felt the comfort of the hot air from the air conditioner.

"Mother, please go take a bath first. Do you need Lolo to help you?" Usually, the imperial concubine is surrounded by maids and old women to serve her.

"No need, Jin'er just tell mother how to use it."

Situ Jin taught his mother how to open and close the faucet, which side is hot water and which side is cold water. He also asked Concubine Xi to try it again.

"Mother, you will teach the emperor how to use it later. I will take my leave now. Eunuch De is waiting outside. If you need anything, please ask him to call me. I live in the house next door."

"Well. It's already the middle of the night. Go back quickly. You'll be busy tomorrow." Concubine Xi felt sorry for her son. Don't underestimate these three days. With so many people, it's exhausting just to arrange for them to work.

Situ Jin also told Eunuch De to pay attention to the situation in the room and not to get burned.

Xiao Dezi doesn't need to be told. He has been with the emperor for more than ten years.

I know that Concubine Xi is very smart. Otherwise, how could she give birth to such a smart prince?

The Emperor and Concubine Xi were enjoying their baths.

I was so happy tonight. I was also so tired. With the air conditioner warming up, I slept until 15:30.

"Father, Mother, did you have a good rest?" Situ Jin and Xia Luo saw them coming to the lobby under the guidance of Xiao Dezi.

I didn’t have breakfast and I was really hungry.

Everyone is waiting for the emperor to eat. This place is not like the palace.

There aren't that many people waiting on you. Just grab whatever you want.

It was so hot when I ate it.

Even Xiao Dezi ignored the emperor and the imperial concubine.

There were too many people yesterday, and he was the last one to eat. He didn't eat this morning either. He was starving.

This princess is really good at cooking. She can cook fish in more than a dozen different flavors.

And everything here is freshly killed. The main point is freshness.

There are so many fresh vegetables, I guess even the imperial palace doesn’t have such a variety.

"Lolo, your vegetables are so fresh." Concubine Xi likes to eat vegetables.

"Mother, these are all vegetables from the farmhouse. If you like them, take some back with you when you return. And have someone send them to mother and father regularly in the future."

"Your fish is fresh, too. Especially the squirrel fish. It tastes sour and sweet. And the lamb chops..." Concubine Xi commented.

The emperor kept gnawing on the lamb bones and signaled Concubine Xi with his eyes to eat the lamb chops.

The situation was like a couple eating alone.

"I'll just take it back for you. I don't think the chef knows how to do it like us. Why don't we wait until the academy starts and let the chef go to the academy to learn. That way, father and mother can eat the restaurant's dishes more often."

"Lolo, this is a good suggestion. I'm already full!" The emperor said and stood up.

"Father, Mother, let's go ice skating after dinner to digest the food." Situ Jin said quickly. Otherwise, the afternoon activities would be postponed.

"Is this also your show?" The emperor was very interested in playing.

He often stayed in the palace, reviewing memorials all day, or went back to the harem and the imperial garden. He had never played outside since he ascended the throne.

It is said that being an emperor also has its difficulties.

"We have an area for skating, a rope skipping area, a martial arts training area, and a horse riding area. That's all for today, and there will be more activities tomorrow."

When the emperor heard that there was a riding area, he wanted to indulge himself.

"Let's go ride horses first."

"Father, let's go ice skating first. We just ate and it's too bumpy to sit on a horse."

Many people followed Situ Jin to the skating area.

The eight guards laid the skates flat and placed two layers of mats on top.

The car is very big and can seat more than a dozen people.

Situ Jin asked the Emperor and Concubine Xi to sit in the middle, with five wolfhounds pulling them in front. Jinyi Guards sat around them. Xiao Dezi also wanted to go up, but was pulled down by Situ Jin.

"Wait for the next batch of eunuchs to go up." After saying that, he asked four guards to sit in the front and drive the wolfhounds.

Because the village is big, and there is a small hill behind it, the slope is not very steep, and there is ice and snow everywhere. The wolfdog pulled the sled forward all the way. The cold wind was howling, but the people on the sled were really excited.

"Ah, ah, ah." The emperor's shouting spread to every corner of the village.

Concubine Xi snuggled tightly in the emperor's arms. The surrounding Jinyiwei looked outward at the running wolfhounds and the white snow. It was the first time for them to feel so happy. If the emperor and concubine were not there, they would have wanted to shout out loud.

The wolfhound ran around and returned to the finish line.

"My son, Lolo, this is so much fun. I have to come here more often to exercise in the future." The emperor was deeply touched.

"It's just a little cold. Your Majesty, you guys go and have fun, I'm going back." After all, Concubine Xi had been staying in the harem for a long time and couldn't stand the toss and turn.

In the riding area, Situ Jin asked the soldiers to clear the circle of ice and snow.

So there is no need to worry about the horse not being able to run.

The emperor rode a few laps under the protection of the Royal Guards, but he felt it was not as interesting as riding a sled.

There are soldiers competing in the martial arts training area and the rope skipping area.

The emperor saw nothing interesting and returned to the lobby.

After the excitement, drinking chrysanthemum tea is so relaxing.

"There are three more farms in the east that are all given to you. But I will go there regularly to live and enjoy the present life with your mother." The emperor took a sip of tea and said to Charlotte.

"Thank you, Father and Mother, for your kindness to us. Ah Jin and I will build that place for you in the style of Nanyang. You can come anytime you want in the future."

Charlotte thought that the place where the greenhouse was built had become bigger this time.

Situ Jin's soldiers no longer have to live in this farm in a crowded place.

They were given the place to live, grow vegetables and send them to the palace. When the emperor came, they could also protect his safety. Kill two birds with one stone.

After the first day, it is the second day. After the second day, it is the third day.

The three-day revelry made many people linger. The emperor and Concubine Xi also got used to the joy of taking a hot bath here.

On the third night of the New Year, they returned to the palace while it was still dark.

The concubines had to endure three days of cold cooking during the New Year.

When the emperor does not eat in the palace, the imperial chefs eat their own meals, and they still care about the concubines. That is a joke. They all have their own small kitchens, and the maids and old women will serve them.

The food portions are limited.

All the concubines were banished to the cold palace by the queen and lived in poverty.

I dare not act rashly. If there is no food, I will just make do with it. The maids and old women eat even worse.

The concubines were all looking forward to the emperor's quick return.

When the emperor and the imperial concubine returned to the palace, the concubines cheered and rejoiced.
