Chapter 430: Grasp

When the concubines came to greet Li Wei, the concubine Jinggui talked about the emperor’s birthday, and asked Li Wei about it.
Li Wei has been a little bit distressed recently. She thought about it for a while and said: "Firstly, it is not suitable for a big deal. Secondly, the emperor's leg hurts and his mobility is inconvenient. If you can reduce the ostentation, please reduce it. Hundred officials congratulated me. Don't look at it, I'm afraid he can't bear it at a young age."
Only when her words fell, Ning Taifei interrupted: "The emperor is the deepest person in the world. What can't afford it? Besides, this is the rule handed down from the ancestors, so I am afraid it will be bad."
"The rules are dead, and people live. If the emperor lays on the bed and can't move, will he still toss him back and forth? According to me, these ostentations should be avoided. We toffees and wives gave him a simple Family birthday party is enough."
As soon as Li Wei said this, there were no other voices in the audience. The royal princess said that the queen mother was stingy, and now she is unwilling to celebrate the emperor's birthday. She must still be distressed about the relationship with money, so she has to learn how to celebrate a family birthday with a small family. Although she was dissatisfied in her heart, thinking about the queen mother's will, she couldn't go against it, so don't be thankless. The emperor was upset, and it was the queen mother who blamed it.
Li Wei said: "Now that the lotus blossoms well, the emperor’s birthday banquet will be placed at the Furong Pavilion by the Taiye Pool. There is water and the place is not small, so it’s just right for people to tidy up. It’s also a good place to enjoy the flowers. Simply tidy up. Three or four tables of food, don’t have to be too lively, warm. In principle, the birthday gifts you prepare at each place must not exceed twenty taels of silver."
"The concubines hereby follow the instructions of the Queen Mother."
Li Wei said again: "The courtesy of the hundred officials are free, and the tribute everywhere is also exempt." She knows that there are many people below who want to curry favor. This one kills the unhealthy wind.
After Li Wei made this decision, he personally told Fu Guang what he meant.
After listening to Fu Guang, he applauded and said: "It's better for the mother to be considerate, so let's do it like this."
"It might sound a little rudimentary, but the situation is really not suitable for you. I'm wronged."
Fu Guang laughed and said: "How wrong is it? Birthdays pass every year, and it doesn't matter for a while. If the emperor's examination service is not satisfied, it is not bad to be low-key. For the sake of children and ministers, the mother and the queen are quite bothersome. "
Li Wei said: "After you call me a consonant, I should naturally be able to bear the title."
Fu Guang showed a shy smile on his face, and at the same time assured Li Wei: "Mother, the child minister will work hard to cooperate. I hope I can walk a few steps down on my birthday."
Li Wei said: "Don't be so hurry, take your time." She regretted her previous behavior a little. It was she who gave Fuguang the pressure. It was not Fuguang but herself that she was anxious.
The birthday congratulations to the emperor reached the ears of the old foxes in the cabinet. Zheng Guangliang said: "Our queen mother is quite assertive."
Liao Qi said, "I think it's just tossing about what you think, but what can a little girl do in a movie."
Du Yuniu said: "I passed by Lai Chunfang yesterday, and the foundation of the house over there has been laid and the wall has been laid. It seems that it will be completely built in one more month. Five houses in one run, square and square. It looks pretty good."
"It's the Hui Medical Department, right?"
Du Yu said: "Yes, it is really built. I heard that the empress dowager said that it would be put into use before Chongyang. He also said that it would build a training center to train doctors."
"We were cut off to do this?" Liao Qi widened his eyes.
Du Yu smiled calmly: "Otherwise."
Zheng Guangliang said: "I just said it was just tossing, isn't it clear to rob business with those medical clinics, I'm afraid these doctors in Beijing will stop doing it."
"What can I do if I don't do it? This is the meaning of the court and the will of the Queen Mother. Don't those doctors who don't want to live a stable life, can they rebel?"
Liao Qi's words spoke out of helplessness.
Du Yu sat there quietly. His mind was thinking about one thing. The Queen Mother's movements have become bigger and bigger recently. It seems that she is not a woman who keeps herself safe. Could there be a second Queen Mother?
A woman in chaos is the state of subjugation.
The Queen Mother came in out of thin air, and it was a threat to the cabinet. Before there was a regent who was able to balance the power of all parties, but after several contacts, it was discovered that the regent was in the Queen Mother's camp.
He is the chief assistant of the cabinet, and he has to plan for the future of the cabinet. It just happens that the regent is not in Beijing, should he take some measures? Also let that little girl know what is or old spicy.
The birthday gift Li Wei prepared for Fu Guang was a pair of newly made shoes. These shoes were made a month ago. She made every stitch and thread by herself, full of best wishes in her heart.
According to Li Wei's order, the value of gifts prepared in each palace should not exceed twenty taels of silver, and most of the gifts currently prepared are needlework.
The expenses of the birthday banquet were taken by Li Wei, and the thirteen yamen did not work. She took out thirty taels of silver and made suggestions on the dishes, subtracting some extravagant dishes. Just make it more sophisticated.
Fu Guang, in order to walk up to the Queen Mother on his birthday, would walk around after finishing rehabilitation every day. This time he did not reject the crutches anymore. With the support of the crutches, he moved step by step, trying not to be supported by anyone. He wanted to stand up with his own strength.
Zhang Chaoen saw that, although the Emperor Andao was young, he was a determined person, and he should be a Ming Sovereign in the future.
In a blink of an eye, it was the ninth day of July. This day is Fu Guang's birthday, after which he will be seven years old. On this day of Longevity Day, although the Hundred Officials were exempted from presenting their birthday gifts, the Hundred Officials still took a day off.
Furongxie was cleaned up early, covered with apricot yellow felt, the tables and chairs were covered with yellow embroidered satin, and various types of bonsai were placed, and the vases were filled with flowers that were only picked. Roses, roses, dianthus, and roses that Li Wei likes.
Several painting boats were also prepared early on the lake for the empress dowager, the emperor and others to swim on the lake. The eunuchs who acted as boatmen had been prepared a few days ago.
Early that morning, Li Wei had eaten rice, went to the Bodhisattva to have incense, changed into newly made clothes, and came to Furong Pavilion. Then the other concubines also came.
Concubine Dun came over with Xiao Liu. She saw the boat she was preparing and asked Li Wei, "Is the queen mother going to swim in the lake today?"
Li Wei said: "I'm afraid it was prepared by the managers." She stood under the window and looked up, the lake was rippling with blue waves, and clusters of lotus leaves and lotus flowers decorated Taiyechi. It makes people feel like in a picture scroll.
