My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

The eunuchs and guards nearby were about to step forward to stop them.

The emperor waved his hand and watched with interest as the ball rolled in front of him, then hit his leg, let out a cry, and sat down on the ground.

Lu Zhenzhen and the fourth princess, who were following behind, took a look and realized that it was not a fluffy ball, but an orange.

Orange sat on the ground without crying. She looked up and met the emperor's eyes.

After the two looked at each other silently for a while, Orange stretched out his hand: "Hug——"

The eunuchs and guards beside her all changed their expressions. This baby was so ignorant that she actually dared to ask the emperor to hold her?

Lu Zhenzhen was also startled and hurried forward to explain and took the orange away.

The emperor pressed his hand down, and the eunuchs, guards and Lu Zhenzhen could only take two steps back.

The emperor looked at Chengzi with a smile, bent over, and instead of extending his hand, asked, "Why do you want me to hold you?"

Orange had his own logic and reasoned with the emperor: "Grandpa, you bumped into me. I didn't cry, but you still have to pick me up, ask me if it hurts, and then give me a good hug. Only then will it feel better."

The emperor didn't know what was wrong with him. Instead of getting angry, he squatted down and argued with Chengzi seriously: "I just walked in. You didn't look where you were and bumped into me. I was hurt too. What should I do?"

Orange blinked his eyes, bit his fingers for a while, and said with a bitter face: "But I can't hold you?"

Two bursts of muffled laughter came from the Fourth Princess and Princess Qingning behind the Emperor.

The emperor was actually thicker-skinned. He squatted down as steady as a rock and continued to talk to Chengzi, "I don't need you to hold me, but what else should I do?"

When Chengzi heard that she didn't need to hug the tall grandfather in front of her, she immediately jumped up and held the emperor's arm: "Grandpa, I'm sorry, Chengzi didn't look at the road and bumped into you. Grandpa, does it hurt? Chengzi will give you a hug and it will stop hurting."

As she spoke, she actually squatted down, hugged the emperor's legs and wanted to blow on him.

The fourth princess couldn't bear to watch it anymore. "Father, how old are you? Why are you still teasing children?"

"Father——"

Orange squatted down and blew twice on the emperor's legs: "Blow it, it hurts~~"

Then he looked up at the emperor and said, "Grandpa, Orange has already given you a call. Are you okay?"

The emperor laughed heartily and scooped up the orange in his arms: "I am well now. Your breathing was very helpful."

Orange was suddenly picked up and calmly hugged the emperor's neck with an expression that said, "You adults just like to play these games. I really can't do anything with you adults."

The eunuchs and palace maids nearby all looked at this scene with incredible eyes.

Over the years, even though several children from princely families entered the palace, none of them had the honor of being held in the arms of the emperor himself.

Today he actually hugged the daughter of a foreign official. If this gets out, I'm afraid it will shock a lot of people.

The chief eunuch was the first to come to his senses. He gave a wink to the people around him and hurriedly followed the emperor to the inner hall.

The fourth princess gave Lu Zhenzhen a thumbs up.

In the past, Concubine Xiao would have come out to greet them long ago, but today, since there were two children, she was a step late.

When she came out and saw this scene, she couldn't help but be stunned.

But he quickly stepped forward with a smile: "Your Majesty, how did you find time to come here?"

He took the orange.

The emperor avoided Concubine Xiao's hand and entered the inner hall holding the orange.

I saw Doubao and Tangyuan, one was dismantling the Nine Rings puzzle, and the other was playing with the Kongming lock. They were both so engrossed in the game that they didn't notice anyone coming in at all.

Lu Zhenzhen hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty, my two boys are easily engrossed in playing something they like and pay no attention to anything else. I will have them pay their respects to Your Majesty right away."

The emperor waved his hand, held the orange and sat at the top of the table. He said, "Nothing. It's a good thing that the children can focus on one thing. Let me see if they can solve these two problems."

So everyone in the room didn't dare to make a sound and just looked at the bean buns and glutinous rice balls.

Chengzi looked around and was about to speak when Lu Zhenzhen quickly grabbed a piece of Poria Cocos and Eight Treasures Cake and stuffed it into her hand.

Chengzi immediately forgot what he was going to say. Holding the Eight Treasures Cake, hesitant for a moment, he handed it to the emperor first: "Grandpa, eat it. This is Chengzi's apology to you."

The emperor was startled. After he lowered his head and met Chengzi's clear eyes, his expression softened involuntarily. He rubbed Chengzi's head and said, "I won't eat it. You eat it."

Chengzi did not refuse and started to eat the Eight Treasures Cake. The crumbs of the cake leaked from Chengzi's mouth onto her clothes and then fell onto the emperor's dragon robe.

The people around looked at each other and didn't dare to look again.

The emperor didn't care. He took a sip of tea and asked Lu Zhenzhen, "How has Le'an been doing in Nanwu these years?"

Lu Zhenzhen knew that this might be the real purpose of the emperor's visit today.

After reading all kinds of memorials and secret memorials, he even insisted on hearing Nanwu's words from himself, as if only they counted.

Really, it seems that I write less letters to my eldest daughter and Concubine Xiao on a daily basis?

Although he was complaining in his heart, there was no reluctance on his face.

Instead, she laughed and said, "If I were to talk about this, I'm afraid I would have to talk for three days and three nights without stopping."

"Other things are fine, but the customs and habits of the people in Nanwu are really different from those in the capital. People there are proud of doing business and opening a trading company to make money..."

Lu Zhenzhen knew what the emperor wanted to hear, so she slowly talked about the customs of Nanwu Prefecture, as well as some of the local delicacies and eating styles.

She was an articulate person, and her descriptions were vivid and interesting.

Compared to the description written on paper, hearing it from her mouth is more vivid and specific, just like listening to a storyteller.

Especially when talking about the dietary characteristics of the people in Nanwu, everything can be made into soup, and all diseases can be cured by drinking herbal tea.

Some ingredients that you have never heard of or find unbelievable can be used to make a delicious soup.

Not to mention the emperor and the imperial concubines, even the chief stewards and palace maids who served them were listening intently. They didn't show it on their faces, but their ears were perked up, for fear of missing anything.

After Lu Zhenzhen finished speaking, she saw that the emperor still looked very interested, so she had to talk about some local customs and rules of marriage.

There are also scenes of worshipping gods during the Chinese New Year.

Just take Nanwu as an example. Unlike the capital, where people worship Buddha and Bodhisattva, they worship Mazu.

Especially those who go to sea, they believe in Mazu even more.

In Nanwu, many places call worshipping gods "worshiping the master".

The system of gods is so complicated. In Taoism and Buddhism, as long as one can be effective, he or she will have status.

Anyway, apart from Mazu, the most worshipped gods are Xuantian Shangdi, Shuangzhong Gong and Sanshan Wangwang.

As for the remaining gods, Lu Zhenzhen had been there for five years and still hadn't completely figured out their relationships.

Anyway, the New Year worship and sacrifices there are so lively. On the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, you worship the Jade Emperor (Tian Gong); on the second and sixteenth day, you worship the Lord of the Land (Bo Gong); on the third and seventeenth day, you worship Mazu; on the fourth and eighteenth day, you worship the God of Wealth; on the fifth and nineteenth day, you worship the Mother of Five Grains; on the sixth and twentieth day, you worship the Goddess of Pearl; on the seventh and twenty-first day, you worship the King of the Three Mountains; on the eighth and twenty-second day, you worship the God of Longevity; on the ninth and twenty-third day, you worship Guanyin; on the tenth and twenty-fourth day, you worship Tathagata; on the eleventh and twenty-fifth day, you worship Bo Gong; on the twelfth and twenty-sixth day, you worship the Shimu Fairy; on the thirteenth and twenty-seventh day, you worship He Xiangu; on the fourteenth and twenty-eighth day, you worship Taibai Jinxing...

After a whole month of the first lunar month, I still haven’t finished worshipping all the gods.

Not to mention that there are gods to worship almost every month.

Apart from their normal daily lives, the people of Nanwu are either worshiping gods or on their way to worship gods.
