When the concubines came to greet Li Wei, the imperial concubine talked about the emperor's birthday and asked Li Wei about it.
Li Wei has been in a lot of trouble recently. She thought for a while and said, "first, the clothes are not full, which is not suitable for large-scale affairs. Secondly, the emperor's leg is injured and he is not able to move. Those who can reduce the ostentation can be reduced. I don't think it's necessary for officials to pay tribute to him. He is too young to bear it. "
Her voice just dropped, Ning Taifei put in a word: "the emperor is the most profound blessing in the world. What can't stand it? Besides, it's a rule handed down from our ancestors. I'm afraid it's not very good."
"Rules are dead, people are alive. If the emperor is hard to move when he is lying in bed, will he be tossed back and forth? In my opinion, all these performances should be exempted. It's enough for us, the imperial concubines, to have a simple family birthday party for him
As soon as Li Wei said this, there were no other voices in the audience. The Empress Dowager is stingy in her heart. Now she is unwilling to give the emperor a big birthday. She must be worried about the relationship of money. She has to learn from her family birthday. Although she was dissatisfied, she could not disobey the will of the Empress Dowager. Don't try to please her. If the emperor is not happy, it is the Empress Dowager who is to blame.
Li Wei said: "now that the lotus flowers are blooming well, the emperor's birthday banquet is on the lotus Pavilion beside the Taiye pool. It's near the water and the place is not small. It's just suitable for people to clean up. It's also a good place to enjoy flowers. Simply clean up three or four tables of food, not too busy, warm based. In principle, you are not allowed to prepare anything more than 20 Liang silver for birthday gifts
"My concubines obey the instructions of the Empress Dowager."
Li Wei also said: "all officials are exempt from paying tribute, and so are their tributes." She knew that there were many people who wanted to curry favor with them, and they would spend a lot of money on it. She also hoped to kill the unhealthy tendencies.
After Li Wei made this decision, he told Fu GUANG the meaning in person.
After listening to Fu Guang's approval, he said, "it's better for the empress mother to be considerate, so do it."
"It may sound crude, but the situation is not suitable. I have wronged you. "
Fu Guang said with a smile: "how is it wronged? The birthday has been passed year by year, and it is not restricted to such a moment. There is no harm in keeping a low profile for the imperial examination. For the sake of the children's ministers, the Empress Dowager is quite painstaking. "
Li Wei said: "you call me a mother, I should naturally be able to bear this title."
Fu Guang's face showed some shy smile, at the same time assured Li Wei: "the mother, the son minister will work hard to cooperate, I hope the birthday can go down a few steps."
Li Wei said, "don't rush like that. Take your time." She for the previous behavior some self regret, is she gave the voltage light pressure, anxious is not the volt light, but her own.
The story of congratulating the emperor's birthday reached the ears of those old foxes in the cabinet. Zheng Guangming said, "our empress dowager is quite independent."
Liao Qi said: "what opinion, I think is blind toss about, but a little girl film can toss what out."
Du Yu twisted his beard and said, "yesterday I passed by laichunfang. The foundation of the house over there has been finished and the wall has been rammed. It seems that it will be completed in another month. A line of five rooms, square and square, looks very good
"Is it the medical services department?"
Du Yu said: "yes, it has been built. Listen to Fang Taiyi said that the Empress Dowager's meaning was put into use before Chongyang. He also said that he would build a Training Institute for doctors. "
"That's what we got laid off for?" Liao Qi's eyes widened.
Du Yu said with a smile: "otherwise."
Zheng Guangming said, "I said that I was fooling around. It's not clear that we should compete with those medical centers. I'm afraid these doctors in Beijing will not do it."
"What can we do if we don't do it again? This is the meaning of the imperial court and the will of the Empress Dowager. Can those doctors not want to live a stable life, but still rebel?"
Liao Qi's words expressed all kinds of helplessness.
Du Yu is sitting there quietly. His mind is thinking about one thing. The Empress Dowager's actions have become more and more big recently. It seems that she is not an orderly woman. Will there really be a second empress dowager Xiao?
Women are disorderly in court. That's a sign of national subjugation.
It is a threat to the cabinet that the Empress Dowager intervenes in this way. Before, there was a regent who could balance the power of all parties. However, after several contacts, it was found that the Regent belonged to the same camp of the Empress Dowager.
He is the first assistant to the cabinet. He has to make good plans for the future of the cabinet. It happens that the Regent is not in Beijing. Should we take some measures. Also let that little girl film know what is ginger or old spicy.
Li Wei's birthday gift for Fu Guang is a pair of newly made shoes. This pair of shoes has been made as early as a month ago. She made every stitch and thread by herself, full of good wishes in her heart.
According to Li Wei's will, the value of gifts prepared in each palace should not exceed 20 Liang silver. Most of the gifts prepared at present are sewing.
The expense of the birthday party is Li Wei's money. He doesn't need the thirteen Yamen to show up. She took 30 Liang silver to come out, also put forward the suggestion to the dish style, reduced some extravagant and so on dish style. Just make it more elaborate.In order to be able to walk to the Empress Dowager on her birthday, Fu Guang would walk around after rehabilitation every day. This time, he did not reject crutches. With the support of crutches, he moved step by step and tried not to be helped. He wanted to stand up with his own strength.
Seeing Zhang chaoen, he secretly said that although the emperor was young, he was a man of perseverance. He should be a wise emperor in the future.
In a flash, it was the ninth day of July. This day is Fu Guang's birthday, after which he will be seven years old. Although the birthday ceremony was not offered to the officials on the birthday day, it was still a day off for the officials.
The lotus pavilion was cleaned up early, covered with apricot yellow felt, tables and chairs covered with yellow embroidered satin, various bonsai and vases filled with fresh flowers. Rose, rose, carnation, and Li Wei's favorite rose.
The lake also early prepared a few boats for the empress dowager, the emperor and so on. The eunuchs who served as boatman were ready a few days ago.
Early this morning, Li Wei had a meal, went to the Bodhisattva, changed his clothes, and came to Furong Pavilion. Then the other concubines came.
Princess Dun led Xiao Liu to come over. She saw the boat and asked Li Wei, "is the Empress Dowager 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, and the lotus leaves and lotus flowers adorned the Taiye pool. It's like being in a picture.
