Skylark sent Princess Nurhan back, and Li Yuhua was walking in the courtyard. Ever since she became pregnant, Grandma Sun had been worried about Li Yuhua being tired. She usually served her very attentively, and even walking was controlled by the number of steps. Grandma Sun
After careful consultation with Imperial Physician Xiao Zhang and Uncle Pei Qi, as well as His Highness the Third Highness, it was stipulated that the prince and concubine should walk no more than a thousand steps a day, and that they should walk slowly and not be as lively as before.
It was so hard for the younger prince to come. The second child of the Eastern Palace was earlier than the younger prince.
The sun is just right in the afternoon, so Li Yuhua likes to go out for a walk and bask in the sun. In Li Yuhua's words, just sitting indoors can easily make a child stupid.
Yunque bowed and said, "My servant sent over the gifts given by the empress, and also met the chief Ruofeng. I think His Highness's place came earlier than ours."
"How is the place where the princess lives?" Li Yuhua asked. A maid brought a thickly cushioned Taishi chair, and Grandma Sun helped Li Yuhua sit down.
Yunque replied, "I didn't take a close look at it, but a quick look shows that everything is done carefully."
Li Yuhua nodded, "That's good. Xiaobao has always been careful."
In the small kitchen in the west wing, Yun Yan brought a small white jade cup. When he opened the lid, a scent of sour plum and milk spread out. Li Yuhua couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and asked, "What is this?"
It smells so good.”
"The milk soup is stewed with dried plums and fresh milk. Please try it. It's just right in your mouth."
Li Yuhua took it and finished it in two or three bites. She felt a little unsatisfied and said, "One more cup." She was quite worried, "Am I eating too much? When the Crown Princess and her second younger sister were pregnant, they both vomited and
Vomiting, I don’t feel like vomiting at all, I’m still hungry all the time.”
Grandma Sun said, "This is because the prince cares about the empress, and the naughty children are tormenting the mother. A well-behaved child will look good in pregnancy, and the mother will not be so tired. The empress has a good appetite, and it is also because of the prince that the child is growing up."
When I was young, one person ate and two people supplemented her, and I haven’t gained any weight these days.”
"Who said that? My belly is almost coming out." Li Yuhua leaned against the back of the chair with his feet pinned and touched his abdomen which was not visible at all.
Grandma Sun smiled and said, "My wife's appointment was a secret, so she showed her pregnancy a little earlier."
Just as he was talking, he saw Mu Anzhi coming from outside the hospital. Li Yuhua stood up in surprise, "You're back so early?"
"There's nothing else to do today. I'll be back after I've approved a few papers." Mu Anzhi asked, "What did you eat for lunch? Was it good?" The two of them had a great relationship. Since Li Yuhua became pregnant, Mu Anzhi asked.
He would come back early every day, and Grandma Sun would laugh at the exchange of greetings and greetings.
Grandma Sun reported back to the princess how much food she had eaten at noon. Li Yuhua said, "I just told mama that I ate a lot at noon. I just drank two cups of plum stewed milk. My appetite is now bigger than yours."
.”
Mu Anzhi smiled, "What's wrong with being pregnant? I heard from Ruyu that Sister Muxiang eats several times a day now. It shows that our little Qilin has a good appetite and will definitely be a child who knows how to eat in the future."
Because Li Yuhua had previously dreamed of a Qilin, Mu Anzhi had already thought of a name for his son, and it was Qilin. Li Yuhua wanted to laugh when he heard Mu Anzhi's words, "Whose child can't eat well?"
"I heard that some women will vomit endlessly when they are pregnant, so I know that such children are not well-behaved." The implication is that his children are the most well-behaved. Ever since Mu Anzhi knew that he was going to be a father, he has
He has a lot of immodest character, and now he keeps talking about his children having one son and two before even seeing the child. Fortunately, he is the eldest son in northern Xinjiang, not to mention, everyone knows that His Royal Highness the Prince has been married for more than three years and is still a child.
Kongkong, I can also understand His Royal Highness’s mood of longing for his son.
Li Yuhua listened to Mu Anzhi pretending to understand and talking nonsense. Both of them were parents for the first time, and they always talked endlessly about their children. Li Yuhua asked, "Has Pei Zhuangyuan come over today?"
"Come here, you want to settle the bill with me." Mu Anzhi shook his head, "Since I became an official, I have become more and more stingy day by day."
"What account?" Li Yuhua has always been sensitive to accounts.
Mu Anzhi dismissed the maid and then talked to Li Yuhua, "An Li's side has no soldiers. Now the iron ore at Sister Mu Xiang's side is idle, so he borrowed some iron ore and borrowed some more.
I hired some hands to make a few long knives for civilian use. I also heard that Sister Muxiang collects leather all year round and there are craftsmen in the shop, so I borrowed the leather from the craftsmen to make some more clothes and armor."
Li Yuhua couldn't help laughing and joked, "You are quite good at borrowing."
"It's not in vain, it's all real money. How can I let Sister Muxiang suffer? I just can't stand Ruyu's stingy behavior." Mu Anzhi laughed at his old friend, "But this time, thanks to Sister Muxiang's help,
She has iron ore allocated by the imperial court, otherwise she would be really worried."
Li Yuhua said, "I see that there are blacksmith shops among the people, and the people can't help but use weapons. Third brother, you might as well buy more iron ore, isn't it said that the weapons at Luhou's place are often damaged and insufficient? The imperial court is short of supplies, so why not first?
It's better to forge some civilian ones to make up for it than nothing."
"There are blacksmiths and weapons shops among the people, but iron ore has always been mined by the imperial court, and not many can flow into the blacksmiths." Mu Anzhi explained to Li Yuhua.
Li Yuhua felt that her third brother was stubborn. Is there anything in this world that cannot be bought with money? Li Yuhua rolled her eyes and said, "Sister Muxiang is actually not good at doing business. Her strength is in research. What can she do?"
It’s true that Tingtu is extraordinarily different. You see, she has even let Pei Zhuangyuan take care of the accounts. When she is doing business, she only knows how to buy and sell. Since the third brother is short of skin, I am under Sister Muxiang’s skin.
With a large stock in the shop and more money, we can collect more skins. We will also hire more cobblers. Now we are catching up with the chiefs of the two tribes. I asked the Bai Dong family to negotiate with them for leather materials.
When it comes to business, look at their character first.”
"Sure. I want as many of the fur goods as you have collected." Mu Anzhi said immediately.
"It's easy to say, it's just for our own benefit." Li Yuhua said, "Have you ever seen the leather boots from Sister Muxiang's leather boot shop? Those boots are well made. Why don't you just put An Li's boots in Muxiang's shop?"
Sister’s shop is settled, you are a big customer, Sister Muxiang will definitely give you a discount.”
Li Yuhua also asked Mu Anzhi about something, "If my aunt hadn't reminded me today, I would have lied." He told Mu Anzhi about his meeting with Princess Nurhan in detail.
Mu An's way, "Clan Chief Ruofeng seems to have a weak temper. However, others also have some wisdom, but their wisdom is small. It depends on what they want. If Princess Nurhan can support the tribe, we will be happy."
See how it works."
"Third brother, I heard from my aunt that the current situation of each tribe is somewhat like that of the vassal states of the imperial court."
"That's true." Mu An said, "For example, the prefectures and counties of various states are directly under the jurisdiction of the imperial court. For example, the internal affairs of each tribe are decided by the tribe itself, and the imperial court generally does not interfere."
Li Yuhua whispered, "Then where did the weapons used by their tribes come from?"
Mu Anzhi gave her a complicated look, and Li Yuhua said, "Take care of Xin Yicheng. I'll ask Sister Muxiang to find out. Don't rush this matter. What is a vassal king? There are some in northern Xinjiang, so isn't it us?
Is it from home?" Li Yuhua didn't intend to rob it, but if she found out which family had a lot of money, she would have a way to get it.
Mu Anzhi couldn't help but think, it's strange that the Dao Emperor's grandmother kept saying that I was blessed with a daughter-in-law. Sure enough, I was blessed with some blessings in my life. In fact, Mu Anzhi and Pei Ruyu had discussed this matter in private, but now that Mu Anzhi had just become a vassal, there was no need to rush the matter.
Mu Anzhi never told the third person about this matter, and he believed that Pei Ruyu would not tell Sister Muxiang either. Now that Li Yuhua said this, Mu Anzhi secretly said, not only am I blessed with a wife, but I also have a good understanding with my daughter-in-law.
As everyone knows, Li Yuhua is completely driven by a profiteer mentality, taking advantage of loopholes and so on. Li Yuhua has always found it easy. Since it is not easy to buy the iron ore from the imperial court, if various tribes have iron ore production, it probably doesn't matter if they buy some. It doesn't matter if it doesn't matter, don't let anyone know about it.
It's done.
As for whether it was against the law, Li Yuhua was determined to run towards the queen, not to mention that she still had one in her belly. If it was all for herself before, now it is for her son, so Li Yuhua has to fight even harder.
Li Yuhua was thinking about the family rushing to the imperial road. The next day Tang Mo sent a greeting note from the Bamo clan chief. Tang Mo said, "The Bamo clan chief said that he heard about the happy news that you, third sister-in-law, are pregnant and wanted to come over to congratulate you in person.
"
Li Yuhua turned over the greeting sheet and smiled, "This Bamo chief is quite clever."
Although the customs and customs of these people from various tribes are not very different from those of the Han people, Li Yuhua could see that they were not very different.
