Entering September, the weather of the year is unprecedentedly hot.
The sun seems to be forever overhead, scorching every corner of the Ming Dynasty, and the ground seems to be burning, even at night, it is not cool at all, and it is as hot as being steamed.
Dongnuan Pavilion is considered to be in the depths of the Qianqing Palace, even so, there is no ice, it is still hot and sweaty, making people listless, drowsy, and not in mind.
Zhu Xu sat at the table and looked at the notebook in his hand.
This is the Shuntian Governor Chen Qiyu played, saying that the weather is very hot this year, and there have been several fires in the capital, burning down more than a dozen houses, and even killing many people from the heat, the heat is unbearable!
Xiao Yongning stood beside him, with a bitter face, glancing at Zhu Xu's notebook, without any energy.
On the soft collapse not far from them, Xiao Shuxian, Ci Ye, Ci Xuan, and Ci Yi were frolicking, as if they were unaware of all this.
Shuxian, Ci Ye is almost a year old, she can already walk tremblingly, Ci Xuan, Ci Yi can also climb, the four little guys have their own toys, huddled together, they don't know whether it's hot or cold, and they frolic endlessly.
Ci Ye was a stuffy person, he didn't talk much, he sat there with an illustration in his hand, and he didn't move all the time.
It's Xiao Shuxian, who speaks a little fluently, and some words come out from time to time, and she is also running around on the soft collapse, holding all kinds of toys, and playing happily.
Cixuan sat opposite her, looking at her in a daze, as if she wanted to participate but didn't dare to move, a little cute.
Ci Yi just watched, blinked, and occasionally whimpered, as if he was saying something, but he was quite energetic.
Shuxian is like the eldest sister, occupying most of the toys, not bullying the two younger brothers, the little face is smiling, giggling all the time, always so happy.
Around the soft collapse, there are two palace maids, carefully guarded.
Zhu Xu would look up from time to time, with these four little guys here, no matter how hot the weather was, it would be a little comfortable.
He put Chen Qiyu's recital aside, and picked it up casually, which was Fu Changzong's recital.
Fu Changzong's recital said that the temperature in the land of Shaanxi and Sichuan is extremely high this year, most of the rivers have dried up, and this year's tax and grain will definitely drop sharply, and I don't know how many more victims will come, and I am worried.
Zhu Xu shook his head gently, this was all expected, and picked up the next one.
This is the Ministry of Industry and the Department of Flood Control of the book, saying that this year's rain is more than last year, the fierce and fast, the Yellow River, the Yangtze River and so on are in danger of bursting the embankment, and it is difficult to deal with it for a while, the rain is too strong, all places are a vast ocean, people and ships are difficult to cross.
The most striking feature of the Xiaoice River is that drought and flood are parallel, the drought is continuous, there is not a drop of rain, the drought lasts for a long time, and after surviving the drought, the torrential rain continues, it comes quickly and violently, the river water soars, can not be discharged, the rolling river water, seems to be able to break all the dikes!
Zhu Xu looked at it again and again, and finally put it down.
These are not within the reach of manpower, he can do everything in advance, it depends on whether God can still have a little sympathy.
The drought is not terrible, if the embankment bursts, it is enough to flood a radius of 100 miles, or even hundreds of miles, the scope is large, and the population is large, and that kind of loss will not be recovered in three or five years, not to mention that this is just the beginning, and it will continue to be repeated for many years in the future......
Xiao Yongning looked at Zhu Xu's solemn expression, rolled his big eyes, leaned closer and whispered: "Uncle Huang, why don't we go out to play tomorrow, scatter your mind, you will be bored here all day, you will get sick, I heard that there is a very good silk in the south of the city, and the queen mother likes it......"
"Go, give them four to wipe their sweat, not cold water, use lukewarm."
Zhu Xu said lightly.
Xiao Yongning suddenly pouted, she has been 'serving' in the Qianqing Palace for the past few days, and what she does is usually the affairs of palace maids.
She is a princess, where has she done this, there is Li Xiangjun quietly helping in front, since Li Xiangjun was driven away, she is almost exhausted.
She knew very well that if she didn't do it well, the punishment would be terrible.
He snorted softly, pursed his lips, mixed a little warm water, wrung the towel, and began to serve the four little nephews.
Zhu Xu's three sons were very well-behaved, and they raised their faces for Yongning to wipe, but Shuxian was different, her head was crooked, and she even ran away with a smile.
Xiao Yongning was already unhappy, so he dragged his shoes and ran up and chased after him.
Xiao Shuxian was already noisy, and when she saw her aunt chasing after her, she ran even happier, trotting around the soft collapse, giggling.
All three boys watched, and two of them giggled along.
It startled the palace maids around her, and hurriedly followed to protect her, it would be terrible if she fell.
Xiao Shuxian didn't run a few steps but was still caught by Xiao Yongning, pressed on the soft collapse, and the towel should be on her face, and wiped it 'fiercely'.
Xiao Shuxian opened her teeth and claws, giggled, but refused to wipe it.
Xiao Yongning took a lot of effort to finish wiping, and hummed in a low voice: "Your father bullied me, see how I bullied you......"
Xiao Shuxian didn't know if she could understand it, so she got up and ran again.
Xiao Yongning was just about to ask the palace maid to wash the towel, but his little face showed a 'fierce color' and chased after him again.
Zhu Xu watched these five little guys play endlessly, shook his head and said, "I asked you to wipe them, to cool them down and cool them down, you are good......
Go ahead, take them for a bath, and find a way to lull them to sleep. ” This is also what Xiao Yongning has been mainly responsible for recently, bathing the four little ones and coaxing them to sleep.
Xiao Yongning has already done it twice, and he is not as resistant as before, he hummed and chirped twice, got off the soft collapse, put on his shoes, and asked people to prepare water, while thinking about how to 'retaliate' against Zhu Xu's four children later.
The little ones were quite easy to deal with, but they were taken away by Yongning one by one, and the Dongnuan Pavilion was finally clean.
Zhu Xu continued to flip through the recital, most of the current recitals are on the 'worried' side, there is not much good news, and the local shouts seem to be on the roof of the Qianqing Palace, condensed, getting bigger and bigger, and the roof is about to be lifted.

Looking at the past one by one, giving instructions, staying in the middle school, and transferring to the cabinet, the mechanized work that has long been extremely proficient has been carried out as always.
It wasn't until the sky was dark and the moon was on the willows that Zhu Xu raised his head from the vast Songben Mountain.
Cao Huachun walked in from outside and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, the queen mother is here." ” Zhu Xu's mind was still a little stiff, and he said after a while: "Well, by the way, what about Yongning and the four little guys?"
” Cao Huachun smiled and said, "Princess Yongning and the three royal highnesses, the eldest princess sleep together in the west wing, there are palace maids watching, the emperor doesn't have to worry." ” Zhu Xu picked up the herbal tea beside him, shook his head with a smile, and said, "I asked her to take care of the four little ones, and she actually ran lazily to sleep......
At this time, Zhang Yun came in from outside, with two palace maids, and after a salute, she said, "Your Majesty, the weather is too hot, and the concubine asked the imperial dining room to cook summer tea, and specially sent it to the emperor." ” Zhu Xu nodded, waved his hand and waved away the others, then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I will rest for a while, and then send the four little guys back, and let's go back to Kunning Palace together." ” Zhang Yun's face was happy and said, "Yes." ” She has been in the palace for more than half a year, her stomach has not moved so far, she is anxious, and not only some voices in the harem, but also quite concerned outside the palace, some people in the outer court are eager to see through, hoping that the queen mother of the middle palace will give birth to the prince as soon as possible, and completely stabilize the hearts of the people, so as not to reproduce the 'national capital dispute' and lead to more unpredictable chaos.
