In the early morning, Bailiyuan also opened its doors. Bailiyuan was a lower-grade brothel, covering an area of only two acres. A prostitute opened the door and found a pile of snow at the door. When she took a closer look, she screamed in fright.
It turned out to be a person.
Her screams attracted the madam and other prostitutes, and a male customer came up to take a breath and said: "She's frozen to death!"
All the prostitutes were talking about it, and the madam remembered, wasn't this the uncle Lu Guo who was kicked out last night because he owed two pieces of money?
This man boasted that he was the uncle of the country, and everyone jokingly called him uncle Lu. Of course, no one would think that he was the real uncle of the country. Why would the uncle of the country come to such a low-end brothel?
"Qionghua, is he your benefactor?" the madam asked.
A prostitute with a pockmarked face and a stocky figure curled her lips, "Will this kind of trash be my benefactor?"
She turned around and went back.
"unlucky!"
The madam cursed and had to spend several hundred coins to find someone to transport this man and the homeless people who had frozen to death to the outside of the city for disposal.
Generally, the government will notify the body for three days. If no one claims the body, it will be burned and buried deeply.
No one cared about the life or death of this 'Uncle Lu Guo', he just disappeared in obscurity.
In the early morning, under the warm duck-down quilt, Yu Lian put her smooth arms around Chen Qing's neck and refused to let him get up. Chen Qing worked hard on his white body again, and then summoned the maid to get up.
The weather was very cold, so they had moved back to the house. When it was breakfast time, everyone came to their seats one after another. Chen Qing paid great attention to the sense of ritual. Their family had dinner at Mao Shizheng, which was seven o'clock in the morning. Everyone was there.
We want to have breakfast together, but you don't have to come unless you feel sick.
The variety of breakfast is relatively rich, including steamed buns, meatloaf, steamed buns, bean paste snacks, fried dough sticks, eggs, goat's milk, white porridge, polenta and pumpkin porridge, as well as more than a dozen delicious side dishes, and melons that are rare for ordinary people to eat.
fruit.
For ordinary families, such breakfast is relatively luxurious, but for the emperor-like Yong Wang family, such breakfast is undoubtedly very frugal, no different from ordinary wealthy families.
"Why didn't Qiaoyun come?" Chen Qing found that Zhao Qiaoyun's seat was empty.
Lu Xiu said quickly: "Xue'er has a cough and her body temperature is a bit hot. She has to take care of the child."
Chen Bing'er was very worried about their plan to build a snowman and said quickly: "I've finished eating. I'm going to see Xue'er!"
She jumped off the chair and ran away quickly. Lu Xiu shouted at her that she couldn't catch up, so he glared at her back angrily, "This damn girl wants to play in the snow all day long!"
Chen Qing thought for a while and said: "Don't be careless. Let Dr. Liu and Xue'er cook a bowl of golden blue soup later. Just make a big pot and everyone will drink it to prevent the cold!"
Jinlan Decoction is a decoction made from honeysuckle, isatis root, dandelion, Houttuynia cordata, rehmannia glutinosa, and stevia. It has a very good anti-inflammatory effect. In the era without antibiotics, these anti-inflammatory traditional Chinese medicines can often save lives.
Especially for children, pneumonia is the most important thing to guard against. If you catch a cold and cough, it will develop into pneumonia if you are not careful. If the inflammation is not treated in time, it will cause tuberculosis in mild cases and death in severe cases. The mortality rate of children in ancient times was very high, and various diseases
This kind of inflammation is closely related.
Golden blue soup is one of the military's wound medicines. It was also popularized by Chen Qing to the people. The effect is very good. The mortality rate of children is greatly reduced. Every pharmacy sells golden blue medicine packs, which cost more than ten yuan a pack. The price is very cheap.
, the golden blue decoction medicine pack has also become a must-have medicine for every household, and has been promoted to all states and counties.
Lu Xiu smiled and said: "You don't need to worry about these, I've already arranged to cook them. You'd better drink two bowls of the soup before leaving!"
Chen Qing nodded. He remembered something again and said to Lu Xiu: "After next spring, I may go to Lingzhou for about two months. I'll let you know."
"Husband, do you want to take Amei with you?" Lu Xiu asked.
Next to her, Yu Lian muttered: "Take her there again, I've missed it several times."
Lu Xiu glared at her, "If you don't care about your son, I'll let you go!"
Yu Lian didn't dare to say anything. Chen Qing said calmly: "I'm not going to inspect this time. War might break out. Amei shouldn't go either. Until next autumn, our whole family will take a boat to Quanzhou together."
Everyone immediately cheered, including Chen Qing's son Chen Ji.
Chen Qing patted his son on the head and said with a smile: "You don't want to study anymore, but you still want to go out with your father?"
Chen Ji said sheepishly: "Master often said, read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles, and don't be a nerd!"
"Well said, daddy has given you a task. Next year, plant a piece of corn and a piece of pumpkin. No matter how good or bad you are, no one else is allowed to help you. You must fertilize and water yourself and be a farmer for a year.
,It's good for you."
"When Ji'er knows, he will definitely plant well and won't let daddy down!"
Chen Ji's personality has gradually become more cheerful in the past two years, which really makes Chen Qing deeply gratified.
It was almost time. After Chen Qing finished the pumpkin porridge, he got up and went to the study to clean up. Yao Mei quickly followed.
"Your Majesty, there is something I want to say!"
"What's going on?" Chen Qing stopped and asked.
"My parents and uncle are coming to Beijing."
"Ah! When did you come?" Chen Qing asked in surprise.
"It arrived the day before yesterday."
"Has the accommodation been arranged?"
Yao Mei nodded, "Madam, everything has been arranged. It's the five-acre house that the prince gave me last time. I live in it with my parents, and everything is ready."
Chen Qing nodded, "Send 10,000 yuan to your parents later, and I will tell my wife."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Yao Mei bowed and said, "I would like to take three days off to accompany them, is that okay?"
Chen Qing smiled and said: "Of course, you can go and tell Madam that there is no problem with me."
Chen Qing pinched her delicate face and said teasingly: "I'm going to go for three days! I will miss you."
"Me too!"
Yao Mei blushed, turned around and ran away.
Chen Qing looked at her slender yet plump back. She would be eighteen years old next year, the age to bear fruit.
Chen Qing is indeed a bit unfair to himself and his subordinates. He requires all chief officials to come to the official room at the eleventh hour and preside over the internal morning meeting. However, he himself is very casual and can go to the official room at any time.
Not long after, Chen Qing came to his official office. The official office where his official office is located is called the Secretariat. Starting next year, it will be renamed Zhongshu Province. Since the Tang system is restored, a system of three provinces, six ministries and nine supervisors will be established.
The secretary of the emperor of the Tang Dynasty was called Zhongshu, and he had the order of Zhongshu, the minister of Zhongshu and the minister of Zhongshu. Chen Qing had reached a consensus with his ministers that as long as he did not ascend the throne as emperor, all other official positions could be
established in the name of the Kingdom.
A framework was established, but all officials were demoted one level to show respect for the court.
What does it mean? The Zhongshu Province is established, but the chief official Zhongshu Ling is vacant, the Zhongshu Shilang is the official, the Menxia Province is established, the Menxiashi is vacant, the Menxiashi is the official, six ministries are established, the Minister is vacant, the Shilang is the official, all
And so on.
This is a better approach since it keeps the framework intact without actually overstepping it.
Moreover, Chen Qing has already considered the candidate for the Vice Minister of Zhongshu. Starting next year, Zhang Miao will retire, and Liu Ziyu will not be able to take up an official position due to his deteriorating health. Therefore, Chen Qing is planning to let Hu Yun take over as Zhang Miao's replacement.
The youngest person to participate in political affairs has a bright future and will become the head of hundreds of officials in the future. This is also a preparation for the transition of the older batch of prime ministers after their retirement.
As for the candidate for King Yong's special envoy to replace Hu Yun, Chen Qing has also considered it, and Lu Jin's eldest son Lu Gang will take over.
