prosperous life

No matter how enthusiastic the emperor's thoughts are, the weather is indeed warm. People say that spring rain is as expensive as oil, and it didn't rain in April, and the people talked about it again. The people are superstitious, thinking that there is a reason for it not raining. Of course, they don't think objectively, they only make up subjectively.

For example, does the current ruling class have moths or something?

The emperor is also very anxious. If there is a drought in this year, he will be very injured, okay!And now some officials are preparing to go to the Shu, and let the emperor Dexiu go to eat fast and pray for rain.

Rong Anxian is a bit disappointed, is he a good brother after all?Even if he is no longer an official, he still cares about the emperor.

Rong Anxian communicated with his youngest son Rong Ningjin and his wife in private, and then whispered to the emperor: quickly take this opportunity to show the previous plan, how useful it is for the emperor to work hard alone, don't those honorable officials need it? Do you want to improve it?

Sure enough, the emperor could hear everything well. At the critical moment, a good brother must be reliable. As for King An, he should be honest. As for King De, the emperor was going to take the opportunity to settle King De.

Sure enough, within a few days, the emperor issued a decree that was very pleasant to hear: Many noble officials in the court need to review, especially the emperor has already obtained a lot of evidence.

Not only that, the De Wang Mansion also participated in the affair of the former Chengguo Mansion's affair with the barbarians. The emperor thought about it and felt that he could not be favoritism, so everyone in the De Wang Mansion had to deal with it. The temple is guarded.

As for Prince De's son who had already gone to Lingnan, the emperor said that Sui Yi and his concubine Song had already dedicated their lives to Dasheng, and they entered Moyuman to promote the etiquette of Dasheng, so we will talk about it when they come back.

As a result, there was a wave of righteousness in Dasheng, and many officials and dignitaries were pulled down by the emperor's evidence. Some of the silver and rare treasures found were turned over to the state treasury, and some were purchased by the local government for farm tools and the like. Give to the local people, and invite experienced agriculturalists to find ways to alleviate the situation of no rain and water shortage in the fields.

Of course, the emperor wanted to buy grain directly for the people, but Dasheng didn't have that much production, and it was not easy to buy, so he could only try his best to let the people spend more time on the fields to increase production.

Sui Heng discovered the waterwheel in an isolated book before, so he started to tinker with it, so that although Sui Heng is now in the Ministry of War, he is often invited by people from the Ministry of Industry, but this situation made Prince Lin very happy, thinking that he did not Misreading the wrong person, Sui Heng is dedicated to Dasheng.

Of course, water trucks are still under study, and they are useless. People everywhere can only carry water to irrigate their fields, and many people use bucket carts provided by the government. There is a big bucket on top of the cart, which can transport a lot of water at a time.

This was also mentioned by Rong Ningjin to Sui Heng, because he didn't have much technical content, so he quickly used it.

With the comfort of the government and the emperor, the people's spirits have improved a lot, and they are diligent in taking care of the fields. What the people want is nothing more than food and clothing.

Prince's Mansion of Lianyang County

Rong Ningjin has heard a little about the things outside, but he only came up with ideas, so what to do!

Rong Ningjin's guess was right, no matter whether the emperor was doing meritorious service for Rong Ningjin and Sui Heng before, or for saving face for Rong Anxian, Rong Ningjin was a proper prospect.

Of course, what Rong Ningjin didn't know was that the emperor wanted to be the champion after reading the answers he wrote for the test, but it happened that the third master Rong was whispering to the emperor, and the emperor mentioned it by the way.

Master Rong San thinks there is no need for the number one scholar, otherwise he would be ashamed!Originally, the youngest son was as proud as a peacock—just in front of him.

So Rong Ningjin can be even more arrogant... Of course, after the third master Rong, he still has to tell Rong Ningjin, Rong Ningjin also understands what his father means, sometimes, you need low-key luxury, right?

Tomorrow is the palace exam, although there is no exam or anything, Rong Ningjin decided to go to bed early today.

Lying on the bed, Rong Ningjin felt a little uncomfortable, but only slightly, so Rong Ningjin tossed and turned for a while, and barely fell asleep.

Recently, because of no rain, Sui Heng has been working late, and he usually spends time when he returns to his room. Today, Sui Heng wanted to accompany his wife, so Sui Heng went back to the room an hour earlier and entered the house. Sui Heng smelled a strange smell and asked the maid what was going on.

Because Rong Ningjin sent all the maidservants to wait in the outer hall, so the maidservant didn't know, but Madam Xue, who was next to her, heard Sui Heng's words, and hurried over to salute and said, "Your Majesty, the servants will go and have a look." '

Mammy Xue just saluted Sui Heng and went in, and called out, "The princess of the county is about to give birth." '

In a word, Sui Heng was shocked, and Rong Ningjin, who was sleeping in a daze on the bed, also woke up.

I'm afraid Rong Ningjin is the first one in Dasheng who didn't feel the pain of giving birth...

In fact, a few days ago, Xue Yin and Zhou Jing felt that Rong Ningjin was about to give birth, so they prepared everything and told Rong Ningjin, if they felt uncomfortable, it would probably be a labor pain.

Xue Yin and Zhou Jing couldn't keep looking at Rong Ningjin, so Xue Yin sent Mammy Xue to wait on Rong Ningjin's side, because Rong Ningjin didn't like outsiders in the house he lived in, so Mammy and the maid listened to Rong Ningjin. According to the order, the master let in before entering the house, and Madam Xue did the same.

Mother Xue was busy for a while, so a group of servants in the county palace made a fuss, calling everyone who should be called, and getting everything ready for delivery.

Xue Yin and Zhou Jing are both experienced, and Rong Ningjin is also well-raised, so it goes smoothly, step by step, but for Sui Heng who always wants to come in and take a look, Zhou Jing Send him directly to announce the good news to the Rong Mansion, so that Rong Ningruifufu can deliver the prepared birth gift.

With the orders from his mother-in-law, Sui Heng was ready to fight quickly, and hurried to the brother-in-law's side, explained the matter clearly, reported the good news, and hurried back.

When Sui Heng came back, Zhou Jing still didn't let him enter the house to see Rong Ningjin, so Sui Heng could only walk around in the hall.

In fact, Rong Ningjin is very comfortable now. In modern times, it is said that giving birth is extremely painful, so there is a cesarean section, but now there is no Dasheng, so Rong Ningjin thought that giving birth would definitely be a big test for him, but now ...

Why doesn't he feel much pain?

Zhou Jing knew what Rong Ningjin was thinking when he saw his son's eyes, rubbed Rong Ningjin's head and said, "Be honest, don't move around, it makes you uncomfortable to talk, but you are sleeping so soundly!"

After hearing what her in-laws said, Xue Yin laughed even though she felt distressed when she saw Rong Ningjin's pitiful little eyes.

Rong Ningjin felt his image... and then asked, "Father, don't you feel that much pain? Is it about to give birth?" See if he still has the energy to joke with his father!

"What do you think? Gemini is not a woman, just bear with it a little while giving birth, and the one who yells in pain is a woman!" Zhou Jing glared at his son and said.

Compared with women, whether Gemini is pregnant or giving birth, it is very easy. The only thing is that Gemini can eat. Compared with women, other reactions are just drizzle.

Rong Ningjin nodded, she has been taught, no wonder the twins here don't mind having children, so they didn't react much at all.

That's right, Rong Ningjin ate a lot when she was pregnant, she was a little sleepy, and she didn't even have morning sickness, so Rong Ningjin always thought that she was different!It turns out that this is a common phenomenon...

Rong Ningjin began to work hard after listening to father Zhou Jing and her mother-in-law Xue Yin about some childbirth precautions. Even if giving birth does not hurt, he has to do it himself.

Although it didn't hurt, it was giving birth after all. Rong Ningjin acted according to Zhou Jing's instructions. When the baby was born, it still hurt a few times, but like Zhou Jing said, compared with women, it can basically be ignored. It was only then that Rong Ningjin understood why before Cheng Yu gave birth, he could not only sit up but also be in good spirits.

Rong Ningjin gave birth to a child very confidently. Xue Yin and Zhou Jing were very happy. After cleaning up the house, Sui Heng, who was measuring pi outside, was finally able to come in. Rong Anxian and Rong Ningrui brought Feng Xian also arrived.

Rong Ningjin was in good spirits, talking to his father, brother, and sister-in-law with a smile all the time, praising his precious son in both in and out of words.

Rong Ningrui looked at his younger brother's proud look, and felt that the child who was holding on to the hem of his clothes before hugging him had really grown up, but the third master Rong was more practical, and after complimenting the child a few words, he asked about the child's condition. name.

In fact, Rong Anxian had already chosen several names, and wanted to let his son and son-in-law choose, but he didn't know if his mother-in-law had chosen them.

Xue Yin understood what Master Rong San meant. Although he couldn't take the name of the eldest grandson, he was a bit reluctant, but rather than making Rong Ningjin happy and thankful, Xue Yin gave Master Rong San the chance to choose the name.

After all, Sui Heng is the adopted son, and Rong Ningjin is the adopted son and daughter-in-law. The young couple can be so caring to him and Sui Ying. There is no second in the whole Dasheng. People should cherish their blessings, especially when the twins give birth to a child. It is normal for the mother's family to give them names. of.

So Rong Anxian was very happy. Under the mocking eyes of everyone, he took out the names he had prepared a long time ago and let Rong Ningjin and the others choose. Rong Ningjin was watching, when someone said in the outer hall, "Sister-in-law, I Here we come!" It was Sui Ying.

Before Rong Ningjin gave birth to a child, Sui Ying, a girl, was naturally sent back to her own yard.

Sui Ying walked into the room and said, "Really, it's raining! It rained without saying a word!"

Rong Ningjin listened to Coke, and said hello to you when it rained?But it's raining...?

Everyone in the room had expressions of surprise, only Sui Ying didn't understand, why she got soaked, and everyone looked happy. Miss Sui Ying didn't have the political awareness to care about Dasheng Harvest.

"This child is a lucky one, let's use this name." Rong Anxian pointed to the paper in Rong Ningjin's hand and said.

Xue Yin and Zhou Jing nodded when they saw it. Rong Ningjin and Sui Heng were naturally obedient, so Nennen's doll was named Sui Hongyue.

The Prince's Mansion of Lianyang County is very lively and lively, but the Emperor and Queen Mother's side is a bit hopeless.

Originally, early in the morning, the emperor was planning to hold a meeting for the newly admitted Jinshi candidates, but after counting the number of people, he found that his nephew and daughter-in-law did not come?what happened?Brother Jin is an obedient and well-behaved boy!

Just as the emperor was about to ask what was going on, a female official came over to answer her. The Princess of Lianyang County was having a baby, so she might not be able to participate in today's palace examination.

What estimate?Who has ever seen a child go out right after giving birth, not even Gemini!

But the emperor was very happy, because soon the royal family had a newcomer, so something that made the emperor even happier appeared, because it was raining.

This time, not only the emperor, but also the ministers, Jinshi, palace servants in the palace, guards and palace supervisors outside the palace, the queen mother in the inner garden, and the common people outside the palace all cheered for the rain.

Even if you can carry water to irrigate the fields, if it takes too long, the people will not be able to bear it, and if it does not rain, the water levels will drop.

Afterwards, the emperor was very generous, conferring official positions to those Jinshi who were able to become officials in the palace, and those Erjia who should not be appointed officials in the palace also got a small official position. Of course, those people only knew about it later. , because they cannot attend the meeting with the emperor.

In any case, everyone is happy to get what they want.

After that, the emperor went to the queen mother. If Rong Ningjin had a child, if it wasn't for the palace examination, he would not have reported it to the emperor. If the emperor wanted to know whether Rong Ningjin gave birth to a boy, a twin or a girl, he had to ask the queen mother.

Although Sui Heng would enter the palace to announce the good news tomorrow, the emperor believed that he would follow the Queen Mother's instructions, so he must have sent someone to ask.

So when Sui Heng came to the palace to announce the good news the next day, the queen mother's palace was full of people, and they looked like they wanted to take a walk with Sui Heng to the Prince's Mansion of Lianyang County to enjoy the joy.

Among the emperor's group of young wives, there are only two who have given birth to children so far, so the emperor had two more girls before.

Naturally, no one wanted to see these two girls. After all, the emperor still had a five-year-old twin—the fifth prince. It was a time when people were in distress, so he would not pay attention to the two extra princesses.

So Sui Guiren and Qi Meiren, who had just given birth to a girl, tried their best to come to the Queen Mother, and those who didn't have children also walked to the Queen Mother with all their strength, hoping to let the emperor see their respect and obedience to the Queen Mother , will go to them to rest and give birth to a son.

Of course, because of the righteousness outside the palace, there are also several concubines who have been punished in the inner garden of the palace. Those concubines can only stay in their own palace honestly in the future, such as Liu Guiren.
