Transmigration: From Farmer To Empress - E 31 Queen Tuoba

Dong Waner was put into a prison car and slept in the open air all the way to the capital of Jin Dynasty.

Let’s talk about Empress Tuoba of the Jin Dynasty. She was pregnant in ten months. Once she gave birth, she gave birth to a fat and white boy. This was Nangong Jin’s first child. Nangong Jin seemed to love something. After the baby was born, A general amnesty was granted to the whole country, and the taxes and labor service in Lingbei were exempted for three years to celebrate the birth of the eldest son.

Nangong Jin also gave a lot of rewards to Queen Tuoba who gave birth to her son. Because Queen Tuoba was already in the back position and was extremely prominent, she could no longer be canonized in Gaoli. After the child was one month old, Nangong Jin followed his father’s example. , made a decree that he would never accept a concubine in the harem, and declared that except for Queen Tuoba, he would not accept any other woman in this life.

Another woman might have been so grateful for this kind of grace, but Empress Tuoba accepted it with peace of mind and didn’t think it was anything special at all.

This queen is very interesting. She is completely different from her mother, Princess Chaoyun. Princess Chaoyun is smart and capable, but she is a bit silly. Of course, she is not really stupid, but just a little cute. She doesn’t care about anything. On the way, I was preoccupied with the “three good” lives of eating, drinking, sleeping, and completely lacking the dignity and calmness that a queen empress should have.

At this time, the sun was already very high, and the Queen was still lying on the soft couch, sleeping sweetly. Her wet nurse, Grandma Chen, looked at the hourglass and couldn’t help but stepped forward and urged: “Queen, Your Majesty will go to court soon. Do you think it’s time for you to get up?”

The queen lazily “hummed”, turned around, changed her position, and continued to sleep.

Grandma Chen sighed helplessly and said: “My dear, don’t blame me for talking too much. I know that you are young and love to play and sleep. But no matter what, you belong to our Dajin.” The Queen, since you have become the Queen, you are a role model for women in the world, but look at you, how can you be dignified, virtuous and calm? Logically speaking, when Your Majesty gets up early in the morning to go to court, you should get up to serve. It is unreasonable for you not to get up. Now, His Majesty has gone to court, and you still refuse to get up. This is too much. How can there be a queen like you in the world?”

The person on the bed twisted around and came over with a voice that sounded like a bed: “Mommy, you really don’t have back pain when you stand and talk. Last night, I got up and fed my little ancestor three times. Three times. How much sleep are you depriving others of? Now if they sleep a little longer, you will be like capturing the king of thieves and a rebel. You will give a grand sermon. Why don’t you just sleep a little longer? What’s the big deal? ?”

Grandma Chen said: “Queen, I’m not just talking nonsense. If you were willing to listen to me and find two wet nurses to serve the prince, wouldn’t you not have to work so hard? You are the queen, and your most important task should be to take good care of the prince. Your Majesty, as for the prince, the people below will definitely do their best to take good care of him!”

Speaking of the prince, Nanny Chen had another headache. The master was lazy, like a child who had not grown up, but she was extremely surprised when it came to how he treated the prince. She actually imitated the Queen Mother and refused to give anything to the prince. When looking for a wet nurse, she must feed her herself. She also claimed that no matter how many children she has in the future, she will feed her herself.

Although Nanny Chen didn’t understand why she did this, since there was a precedent set by the Queen Mother, she couldn’t refute it and had to let her go.

As a result, she became more and more lazy, and she became more and more lax towards His Majesty. She was fine during the confinement period, and His Majesty would not pick on her. After all, she was in confinement period, but now she is out of confinement period. It has been four or five days, and she is still eating and sleeping as usual, completely ignoring His Majesty and not even having the slightest sense of being a wife.

In the eyes of Granny Chen, what she did was a typical act of seeking death.

However, the queen was unaware of it. She lay on the bed and said lazily: “What kind of mother are you if you can’t even control your own children? As for Your Majesty, he is an adult. Even if If I don’t serve him, he will take care of himself. Uh… no more, I’m going to take a nap while you, old man, go down and take care of the prince!”

Nanny Chen was in trouble. She knew that her master was being stubborn. Her Majesty was about to go to court and the Queen was still lazy in bed. What should she do?

While the nanny was racking her brains to think of a solution, the eldest palace maid Qiuping hurried in, leaned down and said, “Your Majesty, your Majesty has already gone to court and is heading back.”

Qiuping’s voice was very soft, obviously because she was afraid of startling the master on the bed.

Queen Tuoba breathed a sigh of relief and said lazily: “Come back as soon as you come back. Why are you panicking? You all go down. If he asks, just say I haven’t gotten up yet.”

“Your Majesty, it’s not good for you to be like this. What if His Majesty is dissatisfied with you?”

Aunt Chen was a little hesitant. Your Majesty is also very affectionate. She fell in love with the Queen at first sight since she was a child. After marrying her, she became even more doting on her. Every day when she got up and went to the morning court, he loved the Queen. They all got up on tiptoe. They were afraid of waking up the queen. They also ordered them not to disturb the queen’s sleep and let her sleep until she wakes up naturally. Two days ago, they even issued an imperial edict that they would never have concubines in the harem, so that the queen of the Jin Dynasty would never be allowed to have a concubine. The woman was jealous of her.

However, even if the emperor’s kindness is great, if the queen just accepts it calmly and does not think about fulfilling her duties as a queen and serving the emperor, over time, the emperor will be dissatisfied. Once the grudge is planted, it will take root, sprout, blossom and bear fruit, and the two of them will The rift between them will become bigger and bigger, and gradually there will be a barrier. Therefore, she strongly disagrees with the Queen’s current behavior.

“It’s okay, I have my own reasons!” Queen Tuoba said nonchalantly.

She believed that although the emperor was considered to be a noble person in the eyes of outsiders, she thought it was nothing special. No matter how high he was, wasn’t he still her husband and the father of her son? They are a family and they want to love each other for the rest of their lives. Is it possible that he will divorce her just because he can sleep more?

Grandma Chen and Qiu Ping looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other’s eyes. The two of them retreated silently. As soon as they opened the door curtain, they saw His Majesty walking in at a fast pace.

The two of them were busy preparing to salute, but His Majesty glanced over at them, and the two of them wisely left.

Queen Tuoba didn’t know that her husband had come in yet, so she thought that Nanny Chen and Qiu Ping had just left, and started talking alone on the couch.

“Hey, we are finally clean. The old lady is worth five hundred ducks alone.”

Nangong Jin, who had already walked to the bedside, twitched the corner of his mouth. This cute little queen always said things that made him laugh or cry. She was the mother of a child, and she always acted like a child. However, , it was precisely because of her cute and cute personality that he was particularly interested in her.

In his eyes, her temperament is much cuter than that of those well-behaved ladies!

“Qingcheng, are you awake?”

The person on the bed heard her husband’s voice and was frightened. This man walked without even making a sound. Was he trying to scare people on purpose?

While cursing, he said weakly: “Your Majesty, you are back. I am unwell and cannot get up to pick you up. Please forgive me.”

Nangong Jin’s lips curled up. Although this girl was born soft, her body was as strong as a heifer. Since I’ve known her, have I ever seen her suffer from an illness? Now that she was pretending to be unwell, he wanted to see what other tricks she had up her sleeve.

“Since you feel unwell, why didn’t you ask a doctor?”

“Uh… I just didn’t sleep well last night. I was tired when I woke up to nurse the baby.” Empress Tuoba said weakly

“Oh? In that case, I should let Huan’er feed the nanny, otherwise wouldn’t it be our Huan’er’s fault to be so exhausted?” The smile on Nangong Jin’s face became deeper and deeper, and her tone became more meaningful.

Tuoba Qingcheng was heartbroken by Nangong Jin’s words. She didn’t want the bun she had worked so hard to give birth to to eat other women’s milk. When she thought of that white and tender little thing being held in someone else’s arms to suck milk, she became angry. I feel jealous and want to cry.

“No.” She climbed up, clenched her fists and said, “I must feed my child by myself. When you were a child, you drank the milk of your mother. Why should you let my child drink the milk of your wet nurse?”

Nangong Jin smiled and said, “I’m afraid that I’ll tire you out, but it’s also for your own good.”

“I’m not tired, not at all.” She said eagerly: “I was just a little…a little…that…”

“Want to sleep a little bit?” The man exposed her, with a teasing smile on his handsome face.

A certain queen lowered her head and mumbled: “Uh… yes…”

Nangong Jin laughed heartily, “Just tell her if you want to stay in bed. Why do you have to make up for your physical discomfort?” After saying that, he reached out and patted her head and said, “You can go on sleeping, I’ll go and see.” Look at Huan’er.”

With that said, he walked towards the west side.

Looking at the man’s back, Queen Tuoba was a little discouraged. Although he let her go on to sleep, she was sober that she couldn’t lie down anymore after being interrupted by him, so she screamed out the door.

Soon, the door curtain was lifted again, and the maids carrying water basins to wash themselves came in one after another.

Grandma Chen also came in to serve.

“My dear, don’t do this next time. Your Majesty will not always be so sexual.”

Queen Qingcheng covered her mouth and yawned, then nodded, obviously not taking her mother’s words to heart.

Grandma Chen shook her head secretly, but she couldn’t persuade her any more.

It’s okay that His Majesty is willing to pamper his master now, but if he becomes unhappy one day, this is where he can find a clue. But she also knew that the queen would not listen even if she tried to persuade her. Besides, she was the master and she was a slave. If she spoke too much and made her master unhappy, it would be bad!

After washing up, she went outside to prepare breakfast.

According to the ancestral system of the Jin Dynasty, the emperor and queen’s breakfast had a very high standard. Each meal had to have more than 20 dishes, 4 kinds of staple food, and two kinds of porridge (or soup).

;

;   Dishes are mainly based on chicken, duck, fish, goose, pork and seasonal vegetables, supplemented by delicacies, seafood, exotic melons and fruits. The rice the emperor ate was specially cultivated yellow, white, and purple rice, as well as high-quality “tribute rice” from various places.

At the same time, the administrative heads of each locality must submit the prescribed quantities of deer, roe deer, deer tail, deer tongue, deer sinew, bear, wild boar, wild duck, tiger bone, goose, wax pig, salted fish, sturgeon, and perch every year. , Luanse fish, milk wine, butter, bird’s nest, shark’s fin, sea cucumber, etc., there are all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas.

However, when Caiwei became queen, the emperor’s precedent of frequently serving dozens of dishes for each meal was changed.

Caiwei felt that it was enough to eat enough food, but if she cooked too much and couldn’t finish it, it would be wasted, and waste was sinful. Therefore, she not only reduced the number of meals herself, but also ordered the officials of Jin Dynasty to limit the number of meals to no more than There must be more than twelve levels. Anyone who violates this order will be demoted three levels. As soon as this order came out, many people were indeed dissatisfied with it at first. They even complained privately that the Queen’s control was too lenient. But after a long time, Everyone gradually got used to it and gradually developed a good habit of saving and not wasting.

Therefore, at this time, on the lacquered flower dining table outside, there are only ducks with bird’s nests hanging on the stove, chicken with bird’s nests and mushrooms in hot pot, shredded meat with shredded bamboo shoots in hot pot, deer-tailed sheep in Wuyi dish, and bamboo joints. The steamed bun is the first item, the red cake with the spoon is one item, the rice cake is one item, the side dishes in the enamel sunflower box are one item, the side dishes on the enamel plate are the fourth item, the bacon is one dish, the pastry is the sixth item, and the cake is the sixth item.

Although it has been reduced a lot according to the ancestral tradition, the couple still cannot eat so much food. However, the food that cannot be eaten is not wasted. After the meal is not eaten, Queen Tuoba will learn from her mother-in-law. It seems that the leftover royal meals are distributed to the palace maids and eunuchs below to improve the food. This way it is not wasteful and can satisfy the people below!

During the meal, the couple sat face to face, chatting while eating. Although there is an ancestral tradition that eats without talking and sleeps without speaking, Nangong Jin was raised by her parents since she was a child and did not like that kind of solemnity. He prefers the warm feeling of chatting with his wife while eating, just like his father and mother.

“Your Majesty, have you caught the woman who set the fire?”

When Queen Tuoba asked this question, her cheeks were bulging, her big watery eyes stared curiously at her husband, and her pouted mouth chewed like a cute squirrel.

Nangong Jin couldn’t help but stretched out his hand to touch her bulging cheeks, and said with a smile: “I came to report yesterday. I have been caught and are being escorted to the capital!”

“Yeah, that’s great.”

She stretched out her little hand, pushed away the big hand that was blocking her cheek, and said angrily: “Your Majesty, you must not let this vicious bad woman go easily. She won’t even let her own child go. She is so cruel!”

Ever since she gave birth to Huan’er, Queen Tuoba had an almost paranoid love for her children. She could never forgive the woman who didn’t even let her own child go, and kept clamoring to capture her and punish her severely!

Nangong Jin nodded and said, “Even if Zi Tong doesn’t tell her, I will never let her go.”

After dinner, the couple went to Shouxian Palace to visit the Supreme Emperor and the Queen Mother. When they arrived at the Shouxian Palace where their father, the Emperor, and their mother lived, they were told that the Supreme Emperor and the Queen Mother had left the capital and went to Kalon Mountain to collect medicine.

It turns out that when Gui Daxian treated Xiao again, he needed a plant called ghost grass. This plant is extremely rare, with all white leaves. It lives in coniferous forests or coniferous forests at an altitude of 800 meters to 3,200 meters. In the broad mixed forest, there are mostly several plants growing together, or a few alone, with the height of the whole plant ranging from 10 cm to 15 cm. Over thousands of years of evolution, the leaves of ghost grass have evolved into white translucent scales, like a layer of Thin gauze as thin as cicada wings is wrapped around the white stems, and the crystal clear multiple petals are like a blooming rose. Because this flower is rare and weird, it is also called the flower of the underworld. According to legend, it has the effect of bringing the dead back to life.

Because this flower must be parasitic on the fungus, and the space is free of any decaying plants, it is the only plant that cannot survive in the space.

According to legend, this white, transparent and crystal-clear flower has supernatural powers, can kill people and become invisible, and is the incarnation of evil. Even its fragrance can make people change their color. Therefore, it also has a name, death flower. .

It is this rare flower that holds the key to curing Xiao’s disease.

After the old turtle explained to Caiwei, it happened that Caiwei and Nangong Yi were going to Qingluo to visit the Pearl, so they took a trip to Karen Mountain to help Xiao find this precious treasure.

With the parrots around, it is very convenient for them to find things, and they don’t even need to look for them at all. The parrots just give them the exact location of what they need.

Halfway up the mountainside of Karen Mountain, Cai Wei and Nangong Yi easily found the ghost grass, also known as the death flower, and put it into the space.

The Turtle Immortal got the ghost grass and slowly went to prepare Xiao’s medicine.
