Chapter 133, the mandarin duck worth a hundred gold
It became colder and after a winter snow, Yao Jiaxin simply stayed away and focused on petting her cat and dog.
Unexpectedly, a distinguished guest came that day.
It’s not someone else, it’s the concubine of the Fourteenth Master… who met in Cining Palace a few days ago.
The Fourteenth Concubine Wanyan is a slightly plump and beautiful woman. She is just in her early twenties and looks like a beautiful peony. Today, the Fourteenth Concubine specially wrote a marten coat with orange-red peony flowers and a peacock blue satin cloak on the outside, which is full of charm.
With this beautiful concubine, the Fourteenth Prince is also a blessing. However, the relationship between the couple seems to be a little problem... The Fourteenth Prince often looks cold to the concubine that day, but the Fourteenth Prince is not very polite to her husband.
The Fourteenth Master is said to be a romantic master. There are already two concubines in the mansion, and they all have sons, especially the Shushu Jueluo concubine. He gave birth to four daughters and one son for the Fourteenth Master in one breath. He has been having sex since he entered the door... He seems to have done nothing else except having a baby. Now he seems to have a little hurts his body and is recuperating.
The other concubine, who is also a Manchu, has a surname of Irgen Jueluo, and has also given birth to a son and a daughter for the Fourteenth Master, and is still very favored.
For the first time, I am a concubine and a princess, and it seems that I have a 20th little girl.
The legitimate wife Wanyan family is not inferior to the two concubines. They have given birth to two sons in their early twenties, namely the second son of the 14th Master Hongming and the fourth son Hongqi.
Look at him, he is several years younger than Yao Jiaxin, and he is already a mother of two children.
It is worth mentioning that all the children of the Fourteenth Master Yun Zi were born forty-seven years before the Kangxi reign, that is, before the age of twenty. The late emperor passed away in the winter of the 47th Emperor. For this reason, His Majesty the Fourth Master was in charge of the system for three years and was not close to the female sex. The Fourteenth Master seemed to be competing and followed the filial piety, neglecting his wives and concubines in the backyard for three years, concentrating on pampering the cat masters.
"A few days ago, our grandfather was really abrupt. I came to apologize today." Wanyan said sincerely.
Yao Jiaxin hurriedly helped her up in person, "The concubine is so arrogant. The Fourteenth Master is young and energetic, so it's okay." - It turns out that he is too young and overpowered. When he was twenty years old, he already had five daughters and four sons! His Majesty the Fourth Master was ten years older than the Fourteenth Master, and he was not as capable as him!
Wanyan presented the gift with a smile, "This jade Ruyi is a gift from the Empress Dowager when I was in Hongming. Today I borrow flowers to offer it to Buddha, just to treat it as a plea to you."
Yao Jiaxin glanced at the jade Ruyi in the silver-red auspicious cloud brocade box, which was as lush as a pool of spring water, and couldn't help but exclaim that its texture was, "This thing is too expensive."
Wanyan's smile was bright and gratifying, "The Empress Dowager is now pregnant with a dragon fetus, and the Empress Dowager must also hope that you can give birth to a healthy grandson. This thing is just right to offer to the Empress, and I hope the Empress will accept it with a smile."
"Since the concubine said so, I feel ashamed." Yao Jiaxin actually likes jadeite. This kind of ice-type sun-green jadeite can definitely be sold at a sky-high price in the auction house of later generations! She once gritted her teeth in the mall to buy a six-digit jade bracelet. The quality was good at the beginning. If she took it out and compared it now, she would definitely have to throw it away!
Wanyan then breathed a sigh of relief. Concubine Yao is now the most favored concubine in the palace. If they blow the wind beside the pillow in front of the emperor... the consequences are beyond their 14th Prince's Mansion.
Wanyan said helplessly: "In recent years, our grandfather has been really bored and has been devoted to raising cats."
I was so bored? This is a secret complaint.
Yao Jiaxin smiled and said, "Thanks to Fujin's understanding of righteousness and preside over the gifts, the mansion was in order."
Wanyan smiled and said, "The Empress is so rewarding. I am just a woman, so I can do some irrelevant small things. We have to think about it ourselves for big things."
Oh? It seems that this is the Fourteenth Concubine who thinks that her husband is too arrogant and refuses to bow his head, so she is at this point today. She is a sensible person.
Wanyan joked again: "To be honest, before I left the mansion today, I was holding my arm and insisted that I ask you for that love pet! It's really nonsense!"
Yao Jiaxin smiled bitterly, "As the Fourteenth Master, do you want what kind of cat do you want?" Why did you like Yuanyang? It was like a child!
When it comes to raising cats, Wanyan was helpless, "In our mansion, the one whom I love most is not the side concubines and those treasures in the Powerful Hall!"
Yao Jiaxin was stunned: "Weiwu Hall?" Why does it sound like a place to perform martial arts and wrestle?
Wanyan showed disgust and whispered: "It's the place where our grandfather specializes in raising cats. It was specially built a few years ago. It has a full five-bedroom building, which is spacious and gorgeous!" - It's almost as fast as the room where she lives!
Yao Jiaxin was speechless and choked. She actually built a house for cats! There is no one who pampers cats to this point!
Yao Jiaxin's lips twitched twice, "I think I really like raising cats, but it's not as good as the Fourteenth Master." She glanced at the lazy mandarin duck lying at her feet. The cat on the Fourteenth Master's mansion was really the owner of the cat!
Wanyan said vividly again: "Our grandfather also said that as long as Concubine Yao is willing to give up, he is willing to pay a hundred gold coins!"
Nani?!
Yao Jiaxin was shocked. Hundred gold? It’s worth one thousand taels to convert it into silver!!
She looked at Yuanyang again and lay down a trough. This is just a Chinese pastoral cat, and the colors are slightly more strange. The Fourteenth Master is actually willing to buy it for a hundred gold coins? It's enough to beat a golden cat!
Mandarin duck, mandarin duck, I didn’t expect you to be so valuable! Yao Jiaxin caresses the mandarin duck’s big red and white hairy head, let alone she is really a little cautious~
Wanyan smiled again and said, "Our master loves to mess around more. You are a lot of sir, so don't take it to your heart!"
After seeing off the fourteenth concubine, it was already ten days old.
Su Yu closed the hall door, Huo returned to Yao Jiaxin with his shiny eyes and said, "Empress, why don't you just sell the mandarin ducks!"
Yao Jiaxin:…-_-||
"Sell it! Sell it!" Su Yu shouted in her ear again as if she was chanting a spell.
At this time, a low male voice rang out from outside the curtain: "What did you sell?"
Yao Jiaxin was very familiar with this sound, and Su Yu was even more familiar with her legs trembled, and she couldn't help but kneel on the ground.
Yao Jiaxin hurriedly stood up to greet the emperor with a smile, "The 14th concubine has just arrived and said that the 14th master wants to buy the concubine's mandarin ducks with a hundred gold coins."
After hearing this, Yinzhen's brows sank, his face was unhappy, "Bastard! I haven't seen any signs of it all day long! The late emperor has a spirit in the nine springs, so I'm afraid he will be angry to death!"
Yao Jiaxin: Didn’t the late emperor be angry to death by Prince Zhi and the deposed prince? Oh, and the eighth master... It is said that it is also one of the culprits of the late emperor's anger to death.
Yao Jiaxin complained a lot in her heart, but she didn't dare to say that. The Fourteenth Master was idle at home, and she didn't even have an errand, and she was still a bald prince. How could you tell him to behave like a man of this age? Of course, he is like a second-rate guy. It's actually a good idea to focus on raising cat owners like the Fourteenth Master. It's better than holding a cage and holding a bird, eating, drinking, and gambling?
It was once said that the great general king fell to this point, which was very pitiful.
