Chapter 37(1/2)

Cao Zhen: "But it's strange to say that I'm asking such a question. It's scary that Your Highness is serious about finding an opportunity to see it!"

He began to sympathize with Tom.

Yinreng flipped the goose eggs over and over and said casually: "Some things have not been seen with your own eyes, and you can't think of them just by imagination."

Cao Zhen: "But if the cat is made into a father-in-law, will it get sick? Will it die? Woooooo so pitiful..."

"You have to believe in the eunuchs' skills," Yinreng comforted Cao Zhen. The more he comforted Cao Zhen, the more he was afraid.

Cao Zhen: Yes! There are so many father-in-laws in the palace, so it’s okay to have one more father-in-law.

"But, the cat is castrated because cats can cause feelings, but why do you need to castrate people too?"

"Azhen always thinks about some strange questions. Gu has never thought about this problem, and he doesn't know about it!" Yinreng couldn't turn his head, and he just didn't think about it if he couldn't figure it out!

"This is a rule that has been passed down to the present since ancient times, although it feels strange..."

"Forget it, maybe we will understand when we grow up," Yinreng touched the big goose egg with his hands and put it in his ear to listen, as if he could hear the little life inside.

"Azhen, Xiaobai's balls should be alive, right? When will the goose be born?"

Cao Zhen: "I don't know, goose eggs should be able to hatch. But the last time I hatched duck eggs made me feel uneasy, so I wanted to ask Your Highness, and I don't know if it is alive or dead."

Yinreng asked the system: Does Xiaomei know?

The white tiger flicked its tail and jumped in front of Yinreng [Little girl, Xiaomei would like to remind you that this is an unfertilized goose egg. Without a male goose, only a female goose cannot give birth to a fertilized egg. This principle is the same as a duck egg.] Yinreng: Ah? Then isn’t this egg lifeless? What should I do?

[Yes, why not burn it into scrambled eggs and eat them in your stomach. The goose eggs are very nutritious!] With Xiaomei's reminder, Yinreng regretfully handed the goose eggs to Cao Zhen and said to him: "A female goose cannot hatch a little goose. You have to work hard together. It is like Azhen will be born with her parents."

Cao Zhen listened to his popular science explanation in a daze. After taking the goose egg, he put his head in disappointment: "That's the case, what should I do with this egg?"

Yinreng grinned: "Eat!"

“Eat it?!”

Yinreng immediately asked someone to cook fried goose eggs. The size of a goose egg was as big as a green onion. He stir-fryed it into a golden color. Just smell the fragrance and it will drool.

Cao Zhen was as if struck by lightning, and opened her mouth blankly and was stuffed with a fried goose egg by Yinreng. He smashed it and found that the taste was really good.

He came to his senses: "So, if I want Xiaoge, I have to find a husband for Xiaobai?"

"Yes, with male geese, they will be able to hatch small geese," Yinreng and Cao Zhen gathered together and muttered, discussing the secret that only children knew.

While he talked to Cao Zhen, he asked how to play the system to get the goose.

[In addition to fertilizing male geese, it takes a certain amount of humidity and temperature to hatch the geese. However, during the hatching period, the geese will not continue laying eggs. If you want to use artificial hatching method, you need to imitate the environment of the geese hatching eggs to control the temperature and humidity.] Cao Zhen has already muttered about finding a husband for Xiaobai, and Yinreng was aroused by Xiaomei and was enthusiastically entangled with Xiaomei to explain to him the method of artificial hatching eggs.

[I don’t know about goose eggs for the time being, but there is a way to record the hatching of eggs in the cartoon!] Xiaomei released the screen of hatching of eggs for Yinreng.

[Big head son is preparing to help the old hen hatch eggs...]

Yinreng was stunned. It turned out that in "Big Head Son and Little Head Dad" even hatched eggs!

Humans need to incubate eggs and keep them warm around the eggs. Take some wheat straw and cover them with a quilt to keep them warm.

Xiaotou's father made a bag of hot water. To control the temperature inside, the most important thing is needed - a thermometer.

Yinreng looked at the thermometer, it seemed to be something made of glass.

Cao Zhen pushed Yinreng: "What is your highness thinking? Why did you suddenly become dazed?"

Yinreng came to his senses: "I was thinking alone, maybe we can hatch the goose ourselves."

Cao Zhen: "It seems very interesting."

Yinreng: "..."

Cao Zhen: “…”

The two little guys looked at each other and saw the excited light of eagerness in each other's eyes. When playing with new things by naughty play, the two children hit it off.

"I'll let you prepare a few eggs to hatch and see," Chicken is more common on the dining table than geese. The time for hatching eggs is shorter than that of goose eggs. He is going to test it first, and Yinreng will do it as soon as he says!

"But Daqing does not have a thermometer. The book says that people mostly raise silkworms and make cheese. When making tea, they use body as a measure. The same is true in the palace. Jade pillar, do you go find out the news for the orphans? Is there a thermometer in the palace? If there is not even a palace, it is unlikely that the people will have it."

After inquiring about the news, Yuzhu told Yinreng: "Your Highness, the only thermometer in the Qing Dynasty was presented to the emperor when Nan Huairen came to the Qing Dynasty from overseas."

"There's no chance. Gu Zong can't run to ask Khan Ama for such a precious thermometer." Yinreng said regretfully. He also knew that as he grew older, the requirements for the Taifu's treatment of him became higher and higher.

Cao Zhen said in confusion: "Why not? The emperor loves His Highness and even Liuli is for you to play with."

"Just just to find Khan Ama because of the fact that she suddenly wanted to play with her hatched chicken. If she didn't borrow a thermometer, she might even be scolded by playing games." Yinreng thought that this was not worth it, so she might as well close the door and tinker with it!

Yinreng, who is already five years old, always hears people around him advise "Your Highness not to lose his ambition". Especially the tutors attach great importance to this. He must study hard on the surface, and just let someone play in private, play quietly, and then act indifferently, no one will criticize him!

He told Cao Zhen about his thoughts, and got Cao Zhen's little regretful and sympathetic look.

Yinreng had a new way of playing, and the idle palace maids and eunuchs in Yuqing Palace finally got busy. There was no thermometer, which was used as a measure for the body, just like the folk, and the palace maids took turns wearing thin clothes. The temperature needed to reach the palace maids sweat slightly, but they did not sweat profusely. If they sweat a lot, they would reduce firewood, and if they sweat less, they would increase firewood to maintain a constant room temperature.

It is very simple to verify humidity. According to the "Book of the Former Han Dynasty: Biography of Li Xun", soil and charcoal are placed at both ends of the balance to maintain balance. If the humidity is high, the soil will be heavy and the balance will fluctuate.

Then use the large-faced glass sent by Soetu to make a cover, cover the eggs and put them in the balance, and ask the palace maids and eunuchs to take turns to watch, gently flip the eggs every hour, so that the results can be seen in twenty-one days.

The temperature inside is very high. Yinreng can't stay for long every time he takes Cao Zhen to see the hatch of chickens. The palace maid and eunuch in the house change their posts in two hours.

Yinreng thought about it and asked Madam Xu to send a red envelope to the person in charge of the rotation and take care of the eggs, and there would be rewards when the chicks hatched.

The official kiln of Liuli made money, and Yinreng's money bag was bulging. He had tried to count and could not imagine how many candied haws there were, so he simply handed it over to Madam Xu to take charge of the account.

They prepared a total of ten eggs. On the night of the 18th, one egg was moving. On the 19th, two more eggs had the sound of chickens pecking at the shells.

The prince asked the palace maids and eunuchs responsible for hatching eggs to keep the secret. These people trained by Madam Xu were really obedient and kept silent.

No one knew when there was a mysterious room in Yuqing Palace. The patrol guards did not know the truth, and the eunuchs on duty were confused.

After receiving the news that the chick was about to break her shell, Yinreng was excited to twist her butt in class. On the 21st day, he grabbed Yinzhi: "Damn brother, I will show you something fun!"

After class, Yinreng "calls friends", called his third brother and Tutu brother, and pulled Cao Zhen and the eldest brother to study with Amu, and then followed Dezhu. The group went from Shangshu to Yuqing Palace in a mighty way.

Yinzhi also abandoned Nalan Mingzhu's invitation and asked someone to send a message to Nalan Mingzhu not to go to "single class" today.

On the other hand, Kangxi brought Nalan Mingzhu and Soetuxuan to the imperial front to discuss the Qing Dynasty's treatment of the Zheng family in Taiwan. The Qing Dynasty's navy forced Zheng Jing to withdraw from Taiwan. Zheng Jing was already in decline. He had previously compromised with Zheng because of the chaos in the Three Feudalists, which made him free and carefree for so many years, and Kangxi was concerned about it.

Now that the Qing Dynasty has quelled civil strife, Kangxi wanted to put pressure on Taiwan, ordering Zheng Jing to pay tribute, and ask Zheng Jingxue to learn from the Qing people of the Qing Dynasty to shave their hair and braid their hair, and follow the rules of the Qing Dynasty.

Nalan Mingzhu persuaded the emperor not to force Zheng Jing too tightly: "Zheng Jing, who is far away on the island, is not as threatening as Galdan under his nose. The military strategy says that "matching far and near attacking" is exactly this."

Soetuze was tough: "The Zheng family is going to be destroyed, Taiwan is going to be captured, and Galdan also wants to encircle and suppress it. You must never compromise."

Nalan Mingzhu: "There are priorities and the Tsarist Russia was in front of Galdan, trying to split our Qing Dynasty. Compared with the isolated Zheng family, Galdan became a disaster!"

It was dusk when the strategy was discussed. It was getting late, and Kangxi also made a decision. When Soetu and Nalan Mingzhu left, he would also call other important officials to come to the imperial court to listen to the suggestions. The attitude on the border affected the future of the Qing Dynasty and needed to be treated solemnly, and should not be compromised, but he could not be too tough and leave room for nothing.

After discussing political affairs, the guards came forward to report: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince called the Third Prince and the Great Prince to Yuqing Palace. The servants realized that the Highness was different from usual and were afraid that something would happen, so they ordered their subordinates to come and report."

Kangxi said in surprise: "What are the prince playing with? Soetu, do you know?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know!"

Soetu really knew nothing. Since he was reinstated, he has worked diligently and worked diligently. His Highness would not take the initiative to look for him without summoning him. The dividends of the Liuli Official Kiln were so jealous. Before the censors staring at him turned their attention, Soetu planned to take the bonus in a low-key manner and be careful to sail the ten thousand-year-old ship.

In comparison, Nalan Mingzhu, who was promoted to the Grand Tutor, always went to the eldest prince. The emperor seemed to have nothing to say, so he must have kept these in his heart!

When Nalan Mingzhu heard about this, she also involved the eldest prince, and stopped, feeling a little reluctant to continue listening here. If Kangxi didn't drive him away, he would really stay here.

Kangxi saw that Soetu was confused and didn't know that he was so gloating about his "playing with him" by Yinreng.

Soetu was kept in the dark and still doesn't know that he has become the same status as the little duck. It's miserable, it's so miserable!

Kangxi actually felt a subtle sympathy.

Kangxi's government affairs were temporarily settled, and he greeted Soetu and Nalan Mingzhu with conscience: "Go to Yuqing Palace to see what my sons are playing with."

Kangxi did not expect Soetu and Nalan Mingzhu to not fight. His only hope was that his two sons could have brothers' love, and that the affairs of the previous dynasty would destroy their brotherhood.

The emperor was not happy with Soetu and Nalan Mingzhu. He wanted to knock together, demote together, and promote them together. They disliked each other, but Kangxi was happy to summon the two of them at the same time and ordered them to plan together.

Kangxi came to Yuqing Palace and saw that the eunuch who was guarding the gate dared to sneak out and inform him. He shouted loudly: "Catch him!"

The imperial guards rushed up and arrested the eunuchs who tried to report to the prince.

Kangxi ordered the eunuchs from Yuqing Palace to guide him: "Where is the prince?"

The eunuch was trembling and led Kangxi to the mysterious room in Yuqing Palace.

As soon as they arrived at the door, everyone heard the little guys screaming excitedly: "It's out of the shell, it's out of the shell!"

From the sound, you can hear the tender voice of Yinzhi's little doll and the voice of the eldest prince.

Kangxi turned cold and said, "What's out of the shell? I won't open the door even after seeing me?"

The eunuch guarding outside the house was so scared that he flew away when he saw the emperor appearing. He hurriedly knelt down and reported: "Your Majesty, it's the chicken that the highness hatched has emerged!"

Kangxi asked someone to open the door, and a wave of heat came towards him. He frowned and walked into it. He saw a few children inside chattering around a group of children, without paying attention to his arrival at all.

Yinzhi happily hooked Yinreng's shoulder: "Brother Baocheng, look, look, this little chicken will be able to break free from its shell immediately. This is the first time I have seen a hatched chicken. It's so amazing!"

Nalan Mingzhu: “…”

The chicken struggled and its head appeared from the eggshell. Yinreng cheered and suddenly felt a shadow covering his head.

He raised his head and saw only Khan Amana's bearded chin...

Yinzhi turned his head and shouted like a ghost: "Ama Khan!"
