Chapter 137: King Xiaoyao becomes the Pig Farming King?
Chapter 137: King Xiaoyao becomes the Pig Farming King?
Xiao Baozhu no longer knew what words to use to describe her current mood!
Under her blank gaze, Xiao Ci stuffed the empty bottle into his niece's hands, then rubbed his hands and drank up the food in the bowl that originally belonged to his niece.
Putting the empty bowl on the table, Xiao Ci frowned and shook his head. It doesn't taste good!
Xiao Baozhu looked at the empty bottle and then at the people at the table who were touching their bellies, and her eyes gradually turned red.
So...I'm the one who gets hurt the most at this New Year's Eve dinner?
He didn’t get to eat the shredded chicken porridge or the four-happiness meatballs, and even the rations in the bottle were drunk by the emperor’s uncle!
She wants to sit at her brothers' table and never sit with these people again!
After having eaten and drunk their fill, everyone left contentedly.
Xiao Baozhu puffed out her cheeks, put one hand on her waist, and pointed at the ground with the other hand.
After the emperor and empress came back from washing, they saw the room was filled with all kinds of food.
Xiao Heng smacked his lips, carefully avoided the food and held the little girl in his arms.
"Father! Send these things to the imperial kitchen so that Queen Jin and the others can eat as much as they want! And some should be sent to the residence of my aunt and uncle~"
Wuuuu... I just hope you can leave a bite of food on the table for her next time!
Xiao Heng chuckled and pinched the little girl's rosy face.
Zhuzhu must have been scared tonight, Beixiao always celebrates New Year's Eve so casually every year...
Everyone has been working diligently for a whole year, and only during these few days can they relax and return to their true nature.
It is true that he is the emperor, but he also likes this kind of warm and joyful atmosphere.
"Listen to our little princess! Okay, Zhuzhu will go to worship the ancestors with her father tomorrow morning, so go to bed quickly~"
Xiao Baozhu blinked. Ancestor worship?
Shouldn't the elder brother go with the father? He is the crown prince and the future emperor, why should a princess like me join in the fun?
Looking at the little girl's puzzled eyes, Xiao Heng smiled and said nothing.
He needs to think carefully tonight about what to say during the ancestor worship ceremony tomorrow!
I just hope that all the ancestors will not be jealous when they see his Princess Zhuzhu~
Xiao Heng carried the little girl to the crib, sat beside her and patted her back gently with his big hands.
Jiang Wanqing directed everyone to move the food, vegetables and meat out of the house.
It was already midnight when they finished their work. Xiao Baozhu felt that Bi Yue had just fallen asleep and woke her up.
"Little princess, it's time. I'll help you wash up!"
Xiao Baozhu looked towards the window sleepily, only to see that it was still dark outside.
She couldn't help but wail in her heart. Others traveled back in time to become princesses and enjoy a leisurely life, but she traveled back in time to become a princess and have to work like a slave and have to get up early in the morning!
When she came out, her father and elder brother had already changed into court robes and were sitting on the chairs.
"Zhuzhu is here? Let's go~" Xiao Heng stuffed the bottle into the little girl's hand and took her from Biyue's arms.
Xiao Heng took his little girl and eldest son and got on the sedan chair, and the entourage marched towards the Taimiao in a mighty manner.
Xiao Baozhu yawned continuously while nestling in her father's arms, and when she woke up she just arrived at the Taimiao.
The rituals of ancestor worship were extremely complicated, so Xiao Heng handed his little girl over to Xiao Dezi.
Xiao Baozhu felt drowsy after watching this for a long time, and the ancestor worship ceremony was finally completed.
Xiao Heng's serious expression changed. He held the little girl in his arms and looked at the ancestral tablet with a smile and said: "My ancestors, this is my legitimate princess Baozhu! She is also the first princess of our Beixiao. May all ancestors bless Zhuzhu with health, safety, and happiness~"
Then, Milk Ball heard his father mumbling to the ancestors for a long time.
It was not until dawn that Xiao Heng walked out of the Taimiao with his little girl and eldest son.
There were dark circles under Xiao Baozhu's eyes, and she nestled listlessly in Xiao Heng's arms.
When I returned to Fengyi Palace, I happened to see Jiang Wanqing meeting the ladies of honor.
She was wearing a queen's phoenix robe, a golden hairpin with a phoenix playing with a peony pattern given by her little girl on her bun, and earrings made of priceless sea pearls on her ears.
Xiao Baozhu's eyes lit up. Her mother was dressed so beautifully today.
She was also worried that her mother would be reluctant to use the things she sent.
...
On the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year, after waking up, Naituanzi began to beg her father to take her out of the palace to the Xiaoyao Palace.
She has recovered now! She is going to seek revenge on the emperor's uncle for stealing her milk!
Isn't the emperor's uncle the free and easy king? Then let him no longer be free and easy from now on!
Xiao Heng couldn't resist the little girl's nagging and thought that he had nothing to do today.
He changed into casual clothes and took Xiao Dezi, the guards and his little girl to the Xiaoyao Palace.
"The Emperor has arrived~Princess Fu Yu Chang Ning has arrived~"
When Xiao Ci heard the sound, he rushed out of the room.
Why are my royal brother and my niece here now?
He was just trying to talk to the princess about his true feelings.
"Your Majesty, your humble servant greets you!" King Xiaoyao did not forget to pull up his trousers while paying his respects.
He was in a hurry to run outside just now, so his belt should have been tied tightly, right?
Xiao Heng waved his hand: "No need to be polite!"
Xiao Baozhu's big black eyes were fixed on the layout of the palace.
Hmm...it looks similar to the Zhennan Palace~
This is easy~ Xu Qingqing’s original yard was converted into a pigsty, and the emperor’s uncle could raise pork for the emperor’s aunt to eat!
And this garden has no flowers in the middle of winter!
It would be more practical to spread fertilizer and grow vegetables.
In this way, the emperor's uncle can be self-sufficient, and he doesn't have to worry about whether they have food to eat!
Xiao Baozhu's thoughts drifted away. Why not let all the ministers raise pigs and chickens at home?
"Zhuzhu, Zhuzhu! What are you thinking about? The emperor's uncle has called you several times!" Xiao Ci's big face was almost pressed against the little girl's cheek.
A sly look flashed across Xiao Baozhu's eyes, and she said sweetly: "Uncle~"
Xiao Ci's heart suddenly became alarmed, and he stayed at the border with his niece for a while.
He knew very well that if his niece showed such a smile, someone would be in trouble!
In an instant, cold sweat broke out on Xiao Ci's back.
As expected, the next moment, Naituanzi said to Xiao Heng: "Father, Zhuzhu has a good idea!"
Xiao Heng asked lovingly: "Zhuzhu, what good ideas do you have? Tell father about it~"
As he said this, he also glanced at Xiao Ci secretly.
I pray silently for this royal brother in my heart!
Someone's good days are coming to an end~
"Father, I think the palace of my uncle is so big, it's useless to use it, why not use it to grow vegetables and raise pigs! And for the ministers' families, Zhuzhu will provide piglets so that they can learn the techniques of growing vegetables and raising pigs. If they learn it, they won't have to worry about vegetables in the winter~"
What’s more, you can demonstrate it to the people in person, killing several birds with one stone!
Xiao Ci's face froze. What a waste of time!
He couldn't imagine that such a good palace would become a pig farm...
"Zhuzhu! The emperor's uncle feels that this matter is inappropriate. If Zhuzhu wants to raise pigs, the emperor's uncle has a farm in the suburbs of Beijing that can be given to Zhuzhu..."
Please! My brother, please don't agree...
He doesn't want to change from the King of Freedom to the King of Pig Farming!
If this is really the case, how will he be able to face people in the future...
