Yonghe Palace is next door to Jingren Palace, Concubine Shu lives in Jingren Palace, and Concubine De lives in Yonghe Palace. At this moment, in the warm pavilion in the west of Yonghe Palace, the charcoal fire in the furnace is booming, and the warmth is melting, because Concubine De is still in confinement, and she can't see the wind, so the doors and windows are closed tightly, and she only feels stuffy when she stays in it.

At this time, Jiajing was holding the baby princess Changning, sitting carefully on the edge of the bed, like most novice fathers, stiff and clumsy, fortunately, the little guy had just eaten enough milk, and had fallen asleep quietly at this time, otherwise he would have to cry.

The little princess is not yet full moon, her skin is wrinkled, her nose is flat, her hair is also sparse and yellow, she looks a little malnourished, and she is really not good-looking.

To be honest, the old Zhu family's species don't seem to live very long, Zhu Yuanzhang himself is good, he lived seventy-one years old, which can be regarded as a high life in ancient times, but Zhu Biao, the prince of Yiwen, only lived thirty-seven years old, Ming Renzong only served as an emperor for one year and hung up, Ming Xuanzong and Ming Xiaozong only had a lifespan of thirty-six years, Ming Wuzong was even more unlucky, only thirty years old, Jiajing's biological son Xingwang Zhu Youqi was a little better, at the age of forty-three, but one of the two sons died young, and three daughters died young.

Therefore, it is no wonder that Jiajing is worried that her daughter will not grow up, after all, the genes of the old Zhu family are really not good in terms of lifespan, and Concubine De once almost had a miscarriage, and the fetus was born with relatively weak bones.

However, compared to Jiajing's worries, Concubine De was happy and proud, after all, she successfully gave birth to the first dragon species for the emperor, although she did not bring a handle, but with the first successful experience, the second time will be much easier, maybe the second child will be brought with a handle?

Concubine Shu had a miscarriage, it is estimated that she has hurt her vitality, and she may not be able to give birth, she has not seen any movement for so long, it is estimated that she will not be able to regenerate, as for Queen Wu, she has not even laid an egg for more than six years, and I am afraid that she is also infertile, so Concubine De is very comfortable, and it doesn't matter if she has a daughter, at least it proves that she can give birth.

Now the only thing that Concubine De is afraid of is He Zhi'er, who is about to enter the palace, this daughter is deeply favored by the emperor, and has the support of her righteous brother King Beijing, if she gives birth to the emperor's eldest son first, then she will be the queen in the future.

"Your Majesty, do you think Ning'er is like a concubine, or is she like you?" Concubine De asked with a happy face.

Jiajing looked at her daughter seriously for a while, shook her head and said, "Ning'er is still too young to see it, let's wait until I grow up." ”

Concubine De said: "The concubine thinks that Ning'er's eyes are like the emperor, and her mouth is like the concubine......"

Before Concubine De finished speaking, she heard the sound of talking from outside the warm pavilion, and in a moment, the door of the outer room opened, and an old lady led the two princesses Yongfu and Yongchun in.

"See the emperor, Concubine De Niangniang!" Yongfu and Yongchun were lightly blessed.

"No courtesy...... Hey, why are you here? Jiajing Qi said.

Yongchun stretched out his finger and teased the face of the little princess Changning, and complained: "Brother Huang, you are embarrassed to say that you summoned us to the Qianqing Palace, but you yourself came to the Yonghe Palace." ”

Jiajing instantly "woke up from a dream" and said: "Look at my memory, I actually forgot about it." ”

Yongchun pursed his lips and snorted coldly: "Brother Huang forgot that Sister Yongfu and I don't matter, the prince of Beijing is still waiting for you stupidly in the Palace of Heart Cultivation." ”

Jiajing's eyes rolled and said, "So, you met Xu Qing?" ”

"No, this guy is so angry now, he has become a prince, and even me and Sister Yongfu have to salute him respectfully." Yongchun puffed out his cheeks and spit out.

Concubine De covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you see what Sister Yongchun said, King Beijing has always been humble and polite, so he shouldn't be able to put up a fight in front of the princess, right?" ”

Princess Yongfu hurriedly said: "Don't listen to Yongchun's nonsense, King Beijing is easy and modest, polite, but he doesn't mean to be contemptuous." ”

Princess Yongchun stuck out her tongue and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, it's nonsense, that guy Xu Jin is always smiling, and when he sees Sister Yongfu, he smiles like spring, which makes people feel like a spring breeze." ”

Princess Yongfu's pretty face was slightly hot, but she was afraid that this sister who was full of running trains would talk nonsense and say something embarrassing, so she changed the topic and said, "Is there anything wrong with the emperor summoning me and Yongchun?" ”

Jiajing said casually: "It's nothing, didn't Yongchun say yesterday that he wanted to come to visit Xiao Changning, it just so happened that I had to come to Yonghe Palace every morning, so I ordered someone to summon you to wait in Qianqing Palace, and wait for the next court to come with me, who knew that I forgot about it all of a sudden, and I didn't come to Yonghe Palace until the next court." ”

Jiajing was talking, the little princess in the swaddling clothes was probably woken up by Yongchun's mess, and looked at Yongchun with wide eyes, the latter's eyes suddenly lit up, and said with a smile: "Xiao Ningning wake up, let my sister-in-law kiss it!" ”

Yongchun said and leaned down and kissed the little guy on the cheek, but the latter didn't give face and cried on the spot.

Jiajing pushed Yongchun away in disgust and said, "Hairy, lick the mess for me, and sit on the side." ”

Yongchun laughed embarrassedly twice, suddenly sniffed and said, "What smell?" It stinks! ”

"Hehe, it is estimated that the little princess is relieved, and the emperor will hand over the princess to the slave!" The old lady next to her laughed dryly.

Yongchun hurriedly covered his nose and took a step back, Jiajing handed over his daughter to the old grandmother, glared at Yongchun who was like a great enemy, and said angrily: "What kind of expression, you were like this when you were a child!" ”

Yongchun laughed embarrassedly twice again, and said, "Brother Huang, the windows and doors are all closed, don't you feel depressed?" ”

An old palace maid interjected: "Her Royal Highness Princess Yongchun doesn't know anything, you can't blow the wind during confinement, and if the wind blows, it will fall into the root of the disease." ”

Princess Yongfu frowned and said: "But the room is burning charcoal, if the air is not circulated, it will be dangerous, the inner room is covered with curtains, and the doors and windows of the outer room should be open without hindrance, or, it is good to open them every once in a while for ventilation." ”

Princess Yongchun nodded violently and said, "Yes, yes, I remember that Xu Jin once said that if the charcoal is not burned sufficiently, it will produce ...... What's that, it's poisonous, it's going to make people die in a coma! ”

Jiajing patted his forehead and said, "Carbon monoxide, come on, open the window outside, no wonder I feel a little dizzy every time I come in." ”

The palace maid and the old lady in the house all looked at each other, what is carbon monoxide?

"Your Majesty, the old slave doesn't know what this carbon oxide is, but this window must not be opened, Concubine De has not yet been confined, if the wind blows and the root of the disease falls, the old slave can't afford it." The old lady said solemnly.

Concubine De also looked at Jiajing worriedly, but Jiajing had an almost blind trust in Xu Jin, and still insisted on ordering someone to open the window outside.

After the window was opened, the air in the room was circulated, and they all felt a lot more comfortable, and the little princess of Changning was rarely active, babbling her hands and feet.

Jiajing would come to visit her daughter every day, this was the first time she saw Nuhe so active, and she couldn't help but be overjoyed, holding her daughter and teasing two teas, then she got up and left, and drove back to Qianqing Palace.

Let's say that Xu Jin sat in the imperial study for more than half an hour, and Jiajing finally came back in a hurry, carrying a gust of cold wind into the imperial study.

"Xu Qing has been waiting for a long time!" Without waiting for Xu Jin to stand up, Jiajing waved his hand, signaling that he did not need to be polite, and then sat down beside the charcoal stove, stretched out his hand to roast on the charcoal fire, and said: "The weather is getting colder and colder, it won't be snowing." ”

Xu Jin nodded and said, "Maybe, the wind is blowing, and the emperor has just returned from Concubine De's mother?" ”

Jiajing also nodded!

"Concubine De Niangniang and Princess Changning are well?" Xu Jin asked again, pouring a glass of warm wine for Jiajing.

"They're all fine, well, Xu Qing has a heart." Jiajing took a drink from the wine glass, and then said happily: "Xu Qing, I received a report from Yu Linsheng's kid yesterday, haha, I really found the large open-pit coal mine that Xu Qing talked about near Ordos. ”

Xu Jin was obviously not surprised by this, as a later generation traveler, he naturally knew that there were many large-scale open-pit coal mines in Inner Mongolia, one of which was in the Ordos area, which not only had a huge stock, but also was extremely easy to mine, so he smiled calmly: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor!" ”

Jiajing glanced at Xu Jin, who was not shocked, shook his head and said with a smile: "Sometimes I am really strange, Xu Qing obviously doesn't have a few more heads, why do he know so many things that others don't know." ”

Xu Jin said calmly: "Without him, only read more!" ”

Jiajing rolled his eyes: "Come to this sentence again, I have read a lot of books, why don't I know that there are open-pit coal mines in Ordos and gold and silver mines in Ulan Hada." ”

Xu Jin coughed lightly and said: "The emperor reads all the techniques of governing the country, and the ministers read all folk miscellaneous books, so naturally there is no comparison." ”

Jiajing pursed his lips, with an expression of I believe you are a ghost.

Saying that, before Xu Jin drew a map of the whole country, and marked it with memory that there might be any minerals in such and such a place, Jiajing didn't believe it after reading it, and it happened that he was still in Datong at that time, so he ordered Yu Linsheng, the chief soldier of Datong, to send someone to verify.

As a result, Yu Linsheng's people found an open-pit coal mine near Ordos, and after preliminary investigation, the stock of coal here was very huge.

Now Jiajingle is crazy, all along, in this bitter cold land outside the Saiwai, there is no industry except grazing, and he has been worried about how to attract businessmen and people to participate in construction and production.

Well, a large open-pit coal mine has been discovered, if a few more gold and silver mines are discovered, will it not be able to develop?

Hehe, I found a treasure, I think when I was going to fight the Tatars, those sour Confucians also said that it was bitter cold outside, even if it was beaten down, it would be useless, this time I want to see, who dares to speak up!
