Chapter 151, Bitong Academy (Part 2)

In early February of the fourth year of Yongzheng, His Majesty the Fourth Master brought his concubines, children and the queen mother and concubines to the new Summer Palace in the Summer Palace for the first time.

Yao Jiaxin was pregnant and was worried about morning sickness on the road. After all, the ancient traffic conditions and transportation facilities were not comparable to those of later generations. However, she did not expect that the guitar car she rode was more spacious and comfortable than she expected. Although the shock absorption effect was average, from the Forbidden City to the suburbs, the flattest official road was the smoothest, not bumpy, and the ancient cars were very ventilated and breathable, and they just swayed slightly when they sat in the car, which was quite leisurely.

Of course, it is mainly because she is pregnant with a good baby in her belly.

Since she became pregnant, Yao Jiaxin has no adverse reactions except for being able to eat and sleep better. Her belly is like a little angel!

Yao Jiaxin thought a lot during pregnancy, and even worried for a while that she had a stone bump in her stomach, so she didn't react. But as she showed her pregnancy, she gradually became fetal. At first, her stomach was rumbling, and she didn't know that she thought she was hungry!

Now she is six months pregnant, and her belly looks only about five months old. It is about the size of a cantaloupe melon. Because she is thin, her belly looks quite obvious.

After a six-month-old fetus, Yao Jiaxin could feel the child in her belly stretching her arms and legs and turning over and swelling, and a small bag often bulged on her belly. It was a very wonderful feeling.

After rushing to the Old Summer Palace all the way, Yao Jiaxin was not tired. She took a carriage from Yongshou Gate to the palace gate, then changed to the concubine's level car, and then took a car for half a day. The palace gate of the Old Summer Palace arrived.

Su Yu carefully helped her get out of the car and then took a warm sedan chair. After about half an hour, she arrived at the palace garden assigned by His Majesty the Fourth Master, Bitong Academy.

Well, the whole trip was either by car or by sedan chair, and almost never touched the ground.

It would be strange if you were tired.

Just a little bored.

She was bored in the casino car, and even took out the online novels placed in the mustard space to read them to pass the time. - "The Legend of XX" has been watched two of them!

"Empress, Bitong Academy has arrived." Wang Yicheng bowed his waist and lifted the curtain of the sedan chair.

Yao Jiaxin held Wang Yicheng's back and carefully got out of the sedan chair. She saw a lush and lush land. It was the beginning of February, and the sycamore tree had spitted out tender leaves. Amid the crowds of thousands of sycamore trees, a scattered palace garden appeared in front of Yao Jiaxin. The water flowed in front of the palace garden, and above the stream was a flat bridge built with white marble. This stream surrounded the entire Bitong Academy - the waterway in the Old Summer Palace was so well-connected, and it was even possible to travel by boat - just like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River. Yao Jiaxin couldn't help but nodded slightly. The place where the Fourth Master praised him was indeed very elegant.

Bitong Academy and Cihangpu are across the water and surrounded by mountains, making them an extremely quiet and cool place.

But it's only February, and there are mountains and waters. When the breeze blows, it's a bit too cool.

Yao Jiaxin couldn't help but tighten her cloak and quickly stepped into Bitong Academy.

Bitong Academy is divided into three courtyards: the front hall, the middle hall and the back hall, the front hall, the three pillars, and the middle hall and the back hall. The front hall is the place to welcome guests, the middle hall is the study, and the back hall is the sleeping hall.

I saw a plaque with the "Bitong Academy" written by His Majesty the Fourth Master was hanging under the eaves of the front hall. The four big characters were written in a majestic and elegant manner. Yao Jiaxin secretly praised him, indeed, he is worthy of being a great man who has more than ten thousand words a day, and his writing is very good! He is probably not inferior to the calligrapher.

Su Yu carefully supported her master, "The Empress was busy with hardships, I'm afraid it's hard, so I'll help you to rest later."

Yao Jiaxin said, "I'm not tired, I'm just... a little hungry." She stroked her belly as round as honeydew, a little embarrassed.

After using the morning food, I started from the Old Summer Palace. I didn’t know when I used the food.

"The eunuchs who have changed places are afraid they are not used to it. This dinner is probably a little late. Why not go to the tea room to cook some milk tea for you first, and do you have to use it with small snacks?" Su Yu helped the empress to the study room in the nave and said so.

There are five rooms in the middle hall, and the second room and the tip of the west are connected to form a large bookstore - this is the study room of His Majesty the Fourth Master once.

Mingjianer is a spacious hall, used as a dining room, and the second room on the east side is a small Buddhist temple, and the east end room inside is a small bedroom - if you are tired of studying, you can take a nap here.

The snacks were prepared early in the morning, and it was already cold now. Su Yu took them to the tea room and heated them up, and brought them in with milk tea.

Yao Jiaxin drank warm snacks and filled her empty Wuyuan Temple with her warm dessert.

When she had enough food and drink, she had almost prepared dinner.

Su Yu directed the eunuchs and palace maids to set up a huge Eight Immortals table in the Ming Dynasty. Xiao Yangzi led four or five eunuchs to quickly take out various delicacies from the food box, and a whole table was filled in an instant.

Xiao Yangzi bowed and reported: "The father-in-law have moved the new place and it is not easy to do, so the dinner preparation is a little simpler. Please forgive me for your punishment."

Yao Jiaxin glanced at me and said it was a simple preparation, but there were at least twenty dishes.

"It's okay." Yao Jiaxin waved her hands lightly, sat upright at the main seat, and started to enjoy dinner.

She always had a faster meal than others. Even if she had to worry about the table etiquette, she was almost full for two quarters of an hour. Finally, she took a cup of medicinal food stewed by Madam You, Codonopsis and Yuzhu Chicken Soup, and drank it slowly as a food.

At this moment, the twilight had fallen, and the mottled shadows of the sycamore trees fell on the window, the breeze blew by, and the branches and leaves swayed.

If it weren't for the fact that this month was quite cold, Yao Jiaxin really wanted to go out for a walk and eat.

After drinking the medicinal soup, Yao Jiaxin felt that her belly seemed to be a little more thrust...

After washing his hands and mouth, Yao Jiaxin went to visit His Majesty the Fourth Master’s former study with great interest. Since there were two rooms connected, the study was very spacious.

Large mahogany bookshelves stand tall, and the bookshelf is full of hardcover books of various colors. Classics, history, and literature are classified according to the bookshelf.

The Sutra Department is a book and annotation mainly based on the Thirteen Confucian classics, such as the Book of Songs, the Book of Books, the Book of Zhou Li, and the Book of Filial Piety...

The Department of History naturally has various historical books, mainly official history, as well as miscellaneous history, biography of historical figures, political books and historical reviews, and even geography books - among which there are many miscellaneous notes and travel notes.

Zibu contains works and books from various schools of thought. In addition to Confucian works, there are military books, Buddhist scriptures, and even ancient mathematical books, as well as several miscellaneous novels!

The Collection Department contains a collection of various poems and essays, such as Chu Ci, and also lyrics and music scores, north and south areas, operas, and even chapter novels! There are four great classics in addition to Dream of the Red Chamber!

Yao Jiaxin took a quick look at the flowers and smacked her tongue: "It's quite rich..."

So she took out a book called "Journey to the West", animated TV series, and various magical versions of movies, but she has never read the original one! - At least she hasn't watched it all!

Yao Jiaxin couldn't help but become interested.

But unexpectedly, as soon as the Journey to the West was opened, it was taken away by a pair of big hands that appeared in the sky!
