Chapter 289 Confinement

Not long after Princess Heshuo Duanrou's order went on, Yinzhen's reward to Concubine Chen of Chengqian Palace was brought in. All the people from the Craft Office were sent by them personally. There were many houses in the Craft Office, and the utensils included glass factories, carved seats, gilded pieces, enamel pieces, flower pieces, incense bags, glasses, and self-ringing bell pieces. They were all houses carefully created by Concubine Chen.

Because Ji Ling had not yet passed the confinement period, she could only thank her in the warm room. Looking at the dazzling array of things in front of her, she thought to herself: Xier must like it.

She watched the bell around for a while - the bronze-plated gold-plated flower-plated self-crying bell was more than three feet high, and there was a Western child holding the hour card. When the hour came, he would call for the hour. It was very fun.

Ji Ling asked Qixi to replace the Western clock that originally existed in the house.

There is also the glasses - why did the Fourth Master send someone to give him glasses?

In ancient times, glasses were named "王王". Originally, this word refers to the appearance of thick clouds, describing the sun. Later, glasses were meant to be used by Hu Shangshang from the Western Regions in the Ming Dynasty to pay tribute to the emperor. In the Qing Dynasty, it was not something that ordinary people could afford. It was considered a fashion-style luxury.

Ji Ling knew that although the Fourth Master never deliberately pursues luxury in life, his taste was very elegant. With his workaholic personality, he had a strong desire to control. Everything he used, from the dragon case in the Old Summer Palace to the small pen holder, would like to design it yourself. As long as there was a little dissatisfaction, he had to change it again and again.

Ji Ling looked at the glasses in her hand. The lenses were made of ink crystals, the frames were ivory, tortoiseshell, and the temples were of the same color as plain copper, simple and without decoration. She put them in her hand and then put them on and let Qixi take them to the mirror to take them. The woman in the mirror was wearing a palace costume and sunglasses on her face, which was particularly funny.

Ji Ling took down the glasses and looked at them again, and suddenly realized that the Fourth Master did not ask her to use them, but placed them in her Chengqian Palace. When he came here in the future, he would take them and use them casually.

Ji Ling asked Qixi to pack all the things, including the flowers and the two big boxes of flowers sent by the incense bag. Ji Ling glanced at the bruises on Qixi's arms and picked up one of his favorites. The rest of them, Bixue, and other little palace maids, they divided them themselves - the girl's house, must like these flowers and grass.

Flower making is a specialty for the production of various colors of silk, silk, silk, paper, grass, rice homes and other flowers for banquets and accessories. It is naturally exquisite.

Bixue was so happy that she held the flowers in her palm. She looked carefully for a long time before she put them away. The palace maids required a simple appearance and were not allowed to apply rouge and lipstick. She would not dress up on weekdays until she was not allowed to wear these flowers until a certain day.

Ji Ling leaned against the head of the bed, looked at Bixue with a smile and put away the flowers. The wet nurse held the third princess next to her. The third princess was waving her little hand, and she was desperately trying to eat her breasts.

Originally, the wet nurse was rotated by two people, but I was afraid it was not enough, but Ji Ling felt that the situation was complicated and not good for the child, so she appointed this wet nurse named Tong - saying that as long as it was not because of insufficient milk, try to feed her as much as possible and not rotate.

Fortunately, the child wet nurse has a lot of milk, and even if the third princess has her belly open and eats it hard, it is enough.

Although it is summer in the warm trunk, the ground is covered with cushions and is changed every two days, so that when the third princess behind him can crawl around on the ground when they learn to walk. If they fall, it is safe to fall on the cushions.

In addition, all the furniture in the warmer cabinet, as long as it has sharp angles, were wrapped in soft cloth by Jiling's order. In addition, there is a rocking cart - the rocking cart is a cradle, but the statement is different.

The third princess is really small. Every time she puts it into the cradle, Jilin feels that she is immediately swallowed by the quilt.

But the third princess sometimes cried very hard. As soon as she was put into the cradle and shook for a while, she was so happy. Not only did she stop crying, she also grinned and kept waving her hands, urging her to shake the cradle even harder, making the whole room of slaves stunned.

Ji Ling thought: When her daughter grows up, would she design a pirate ship for her?

But she didn't let the third princess lie on the cradle for more than one time, and she carried it out for at most half an hour, because the newborn's bones are relatively soft, especially the lumbar spine and spine. In addition, the cradle is soft and has no support, which is not conducive to bone development.

This principle is similar to: the worse the waist, the more unable to sleep in a very soft bed, and it must be supported.

In the East Warehouse, basically half of the area next to Ji Ling’s bedside became a baby area, and various small toys were also placed here for the third princess. Ji Ling asked the slaves to cook and disinfect every day, and took turns to play with the third princess.

In the Palace of Peaceful Heart.

Yinzhen sat behind the dragon case and looked at a post from the Old Summer Palace in front of him: Musen, the inner steward, followed the order of Prince Yi, and moved the red furnace and other guys in the White Tiger Palace within two days.

The White Tiger Palace is a hall in the workshop area of ​​the Qing Palace Building Office in the Forbidden City, which is also an idea that Yinzhen had long had before.

As early as the New Year, he conveyed a relevant meaning to Prince Yi: The Qing Palace Construction Office was established in more than 20 years since the reign of Emperor Kangxi. The workshops were incomplete, the levels of each work were uneven, and the inner court was scattered.

Yinzhen wanted to carry out some reforms with drastic steps.

He wanted to collect power from the Qing Palace Building Office to gather resources, especially sensitive workshops such as the "Guns and Cannons Office".

The Jingshan Guns and Cannons Department belongs to the Ministry of Works, and the production location was originally in Jingshan. After Yinzhen ordered the adjustment, the Qing Palace Construction Office was very burdened - in addition to the Qing Dynasty's cold weapons production, it also undertakes the production of hot weapons.

Yinzhen closed the post seriously, pressed his hand on it, and opened it again.

There is also the matter of General Weiyuan’s iron cannon, so he still has to summon his thirteenth brother in, he thought.

...

Before he knew it, more than twenty days had passed, and Ji Ling also felt like she had become a spicy cabbage - her whole body was filled with sour smell.

This is during the confinement period. The nanny insisted that she would not let her hair wash, saying that once she shampooed, she would suffer from confinement illness. So Ji Ling could only wipe her body with a hot hot towel, even if she had taken a shower...

What can a hot towel be used for? At most it is just a psychological comfort. In order to keep your hair clean as much as possible, Ji Ling simply woven a braid in the house. Anyway, she didn't go out and disappeared, so she just went to confinement honestly.

When he was out of confinement, Ji Ling was as happy and excited as a person who had been released from prison after prison.

The first thing was to be served by the slaves, and they took a shower quickly. They changed more than a dozen buckets of hot water and sprinkled three baskets of dried petals, almost six or seven times the amount they used for taking a bath on weekdays. They almost used up the stock of petals in Chengqian Palace.

When Yinzhen came over in the evening, she saw her smiling like a flower, smelling like a flower, and smelling fragrant.
