Chapter 375, The group pet princess is getting fat! o()o
Yinzhen put on the auspicious clothes attached to Gulun and drove to the Palace of the Old Summer Palace with her.
Yinzhen built this summer resort for her and was named "Yiyuan". Because her name in this life was Aisin Gioro Xianyu, which means happiness, so Yiyuan is the garden of Aisin Gioro Xianyu.
Yiyuan is not as close to Prince Ke’s Weixiu Garden as before, but it is only half an hour away.
"Why did you suddenly have to accompany me into the garden?" - Although Yinzhen is an umbrella, he is a man with a foreign surname after all, so it is not suitable to enter the harem.
Yinzhen smiled and said, "I happened to ask for a meeting with the emperor."
Lin Xianyu was a little puzzled, "What? I want to ask for an official position?"
Yinzhen sneered gently, "I don't have that leisure time! However, after Yongyan became the emperor, he was conscientious and wise in handling government affairs. He was not like the kind and mediocre emperor you said."
Yinzhen just said this casually, but Lin Xianyu suddenly felt nervous.
Yes, after Yongyan ascended the throne, he was indeed quite diligent, so that's all. What's more important is that Yongyan was very good at handling Heshen's remnants and eradicating the administration for a while, which was also considered wise.
Yinzhen said again: "Since my grandfather is so successful, I don't mind helping him a little."
Lin Xianyu was curious: "How do you plan to help him?"
Yinzhen said "Hmm", "A while ago, the manager who went to Suzhou and Hangzhou to buy silk came back and reported that it was said that the people from Thirteen Foreign Company and the East India Company wanted to continue their business with me."
Lin Xianyu frowned, "It's fine if Thirteen Foreign Company, this East India Company is not a good thing!" It can even be said that it is a group of robbers and bandits!
Yinzhen smiled: "Of course I know that those foreigners are not things. But so what? I am doing business with him, not making friends or accepting brothers! Moreover, since ancient times, there have been no business or treacherous. If they were benevolent, righteous and moral, Heshen would not cooperate with them at the beginning."
Yes, don’t think that Heshen, the richest man in the 18th century, was all embezzled. Heshen is also very good at doing business and is good at making money. Heshen had been online with the East India Company for a long time and has been doing overseas trade.
But after Heshen's death, the trade was naturally interrupted.
But the East India Company obviously was reluctant to let such a generous partner, so it found Heshen's son.
"We are not short of money to spend." Lin Xianyu murmured in a low voice.
Yinzhen said quietly: "Of course we don't lack silver, but the Qing Dynasty lacks silver."
Lin Xianyu blinked: "Didn't it mean 'Heshen fell and Jiaqing was full'?" - I've just searched Hedi for a few years? Is it all spent so much money?
Yinzhen said helplessly: "Don't you know that Heshen and Qianlong have dug up the foundation of the Qing Dynasty for half of their lives. Even though Jiaqing had confiscated such a large sum of money, various places have already lost money, and some places are even more indifferences. In addition, some natural disasters and man-made disasters, as well as wars in the southwest, are too expensive! If this continues, I am afraid that in a few years, the money for the house search will not be enough."
Lin Xianyu suddenly thought of something, "So in recent years, Jiaqing has been using the Yongzheng Dynasty's alternate official system to liquidate corrupt officials!" - Finding corrupt officials, he confiscated his home and replenished the treasury. This is a good way to open source.
"Okay, just don't feel tired." Lin Xianyu respected Yinzhen's wishes.
The two parted ways at the Palace Gate of the Old Summer Palace because at this time, Concubine Zidun and other widows of the late emperor lived in Changchun Garden in the east.
Although Changchun Garden is now part of the Old Summer Palace, if you enter through the Grand Palace Gate of the Old Summer Palace, it will take half a day to hike. It is better to drive to the east and enter through the Old Summer Palace Gate of the Changchun Garden, which will save time and effort.
Concubine Dun now lives in Changchun Garden, one of the most spacious and cool palaces in Ningchun Hall.
Now there is no need to serve the old man of the Supreme Emperor, Concubine Dun lives a very leisurely life.
Lin Xianyu could hear the laughter and the sounds inside outside Ningchun Palace - it seemed that he was playing mahjong???
Well, this era is called the Sparrow Card.
At this time, Xungui Concubine and Yugui Concubine are no longer alive, so they are recommended to be the same as Concubine Dun as Concubine Wan, Concubine Fang, and Concubine Gong Lin.
The common characteristic of these four is that they are not of high origin, but now they are the most important widows of the late emperor.
Among them, Concubine Wan is the oldest, and this old man is a former residence of Emperor Qianlong’s secret residence! He is now in his eighties, and he can be the mother or even grandmother of the other three in age! Concubine Wan’s position as Concubine Wan can be said to be able to survive based on his age!
Concubine Wan was covered in silver silk and her face was full of pleated, but she was very smooth when she pushed the mahjong, and she didn't look like an octogenarian lady at all.
"It's so bad!" At this time, Concubine Wan smiled like a chrysanthemum, and she pushed down the card in her hand with a "pop".
Concubine Dun said "yo", "The old sister is so lucky today! She won three times in a row!"
Concubine Wan smiled so much that the folds on her face were about to stack, "Come on, come on, another game!"
Concubine Dun smiled angrily and said, "No more! My daughter is here to come and see me, I will not accompany you!"
Concubine Wan, Concubine Fang, and Concubine Gong all looked out at the outside world. Isn’t it just Princess Gulun and Xiao in peacock green uniform?
The youngest among the four concubines, Fang, said with envy: "Sister Dun is the most blessed!"
A palace maid opened the pearl curtain for her. Lin Xianyuxian walked into the western silence room in a slender way. She bent her knees and said, "He Xiao would like to my mother, to my mother Wan, to my mother Fang, and to my mother Gong."
Concubine Wan had a kind smile. She looked up and down at Lin Xianyu's noble and extraordinary outfit, and couldn't help but praise her: "Look at our tenth princesses, we are really becoming more and more famous! There are so many princesses in the late emperor, so the tenth princesses belong to our tenth princesses are the most beautiful and lovely!"
The original owners Gulun and Princess Xiao were like fond people in the harem of the late emperor, especially these old concubines who had no children, who liked him very much.
Lin Xianyu pursed her lips and smiled, "Mother's wife has been awarded too much."
Concubine Fang is the youngest among the few people here, even much younger than Concubine Dun. She was quite favored in her later years, so she was able to be awarded the title of concubine as a Han woman.
Concubine Fang smiled and looked at Lin Xianyu's face, and couldn't help but say enviously: "Sister Dun is lucky to give birth to such a beautiful princess."
Although Gong Taipin, who was the lowest among the four, was older than Concubine Dun. Gong Taipin smiled softly, "His face is much richer and rosy, which shows that the couple is in love and life is smooth."
Lin Xianyu originally praised Concubine Wan and Concubine Fang in a very good mood, but she was said to be "rich" by Concubine Gong, and the corners of her mouth were almost cramped!
Yes, since Yinzhen was not just taking it, Lin Xianyu felt sorry for his filial piety for three years, so he was particularly concerned about his diet. The two of them ate and slept together every day, and their appetites increased, so they became a little fatter!
Over the years, with her body slimming, her face had already developed into a duck-like face, but she didn't expect that she would accidentally get a round face again after accidentally eating it!
