It was late in summer, but the lights were brightly lit inside and outside Fengyi Palace.

Ji Ziqing stood outside the Yihua main hall with his back on his back, his eyebrows still remained unreached. Even if there was a cool breeze, it could not blow away the heat lingering in his heart.

The pain chants in Yihua Palace were interrupted and sometimes sounded, and the encouragement of the Wenpo was very cautious. The palace maids entering and leaving were all tense. As time passed, the marks piled up between Ji Ziqing's young and handsome face became deeper and deeper.

Liu Quanshun held the whisk and walked very fast, but as light as if nothing. He came beside Ji Ziqing, bowed his head and replied: "Your Majesty, Gan Ming Palace is here to report. The Fifth Prince has already fallen asleep peacefully. Your Majesty, don't worry about it anymore."

Ji Ziqing said softly and said, "Get back."

Liu Quanshun respectfully responded, and then quietly retreated to the gate of the courtyard. Under the two layers of bluestone steps, he waited for more than a dozen imperial doctors.

The Empress Dowager, who was pregnant with the bones and blood of the late emperor, had a childbirth today. His Majesty, who was only sixteen years old, was worried about his mother's danger. As early as half a month ago, he detained all the gynecologists in the Imperial Hospital in the palace in case of emergency.

When the baby's loud cry broke through the silent night sky, Ji Ziqing's fists, which had been clenched tightly, finally slowly relaxed.

But in a moment, a dignified woman with a slightly white temple and a kind face walked out of the Yihua Hall and paid a salute to the young Emperor, saying: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager gave birth to a little princess, and you have another sister." As for why it is useful, it is because Ji Ziqing also has a legitimate brother of a mother, namely the fifth prince Ji Ziheng, who is over three years old. "It's good that the Empress Dowager is just a little tired."

Ji Ziqing strode forward and reached out to support the old woman who was bowing, saying gratefully: "A moment, my grandmother has taken care of her mother and Yuanbao."

He first succeeded the throne, but the court was still unstable. He spent all day long on state affairs. He had not married the queen and had no mistress in the harem. But his biological mother, Empress Dowager Hui'an, was still pregnant with the posthumous blood of the late emperor. His legitimate brother, who was only three years old, was named Yuanbao, and was weak and sick since childhood. In order to make a decision, he took the wife of the Duke of Ding, the birth mother of the empress dowager, to the palace, and took care of the Empress Dowager and the fifth prince.

The kind-faced old woman dared not take credit for herself, but still advanced and retreated properly and behaved appropriately: "The palace is being cleaned up. When it is done, Your Majesty can go in and see the Empress, and also see your little sister."

Ji Ziqing nodded: "Well, I'm just waiting here."

After a while, a white-faced and round-faced nanny came out of the hall to invite Ji Ziqing: "Your Majesty, the empress is a little tired. She just went to bed. Before going to bed, she told you to go back to the palace to rest early." The palace maid in charge was called Biyun, and she was respectfully called Madam Yun. She watched the new emperor grow up, so she was not restrained in speaking. "The little princess has already wrapped herself up. Not only is she born white and fat, but her eyebrows and eyes are also very similar to the Empress Dowager. When she grows up, she must be a great beauty."

"I'll go and have a look." Ji Ziqing stepped forward with his long legs and entered Yihua Palace.

In the hall, the energetic Duke of Ding was already holding a small bright yellow cradle, waiting for Ji Ziqing to arrive: "Your Majesty, this is the little princess, look, she is so handsome." His tone was gentle and did not hide his kindness. The little baby in his arms was a princess who was a noble princess, but she was also her relative's granddaughter.

Although Ji Ziqing was not married and was not a father, he was still very skilled in holding the children. When his brother Yuanbao was young, he had hugged many of them.

After holding a soft lump of flesh in his arms, Ji Ziqing looked at the freshman little sister with the bright palace lanterns. After a moment, a smile was hidden in his cold voice: "It's indeed white, fat, clean, and very handsome..." No matter what the expressions of the people in the palace looked, Ji Ziqing sat down steadily with her little sister in her arms, then lowered her head in a daze, and looked at the little thing muttering her little mouth.

Born without a father, let him, the elder brother... replace his father's position, Ji Ziqing thought silently.

"I'll take good care of the Empress Dowager and the Princess. I'll come back after I'm going to the court tomorrow." Ji Ziqing hugged his little sister for a while, then went to the inner palace to see his mother, and then he took his close eunuch Liu Quanshun back to Ganming Palace.

Ganming Palace is the residence of previous emperors, divided into two parts: the front and the back. The front hall is the Qinzheng Hall and the imperial study room is the place where the emperor always reviews memorials and receives court officials. The back hall is the Tiyuan Hall, which is where the emperor goes to bed at night and summons his concubines.

After Ji Ziqing returned to Ganming Palace, he first returned to the Tiyuan Palace in the back to visit his brother Ji Ziheng.

"I have seen Your Majesty." A middle-aged nanny with a long face was sitting quietly outside the bed. When she saw His Majesty the Emperor coming in quietly, she hurriedly got up and saluted, but she did not forget to press the voice very low to avoid waking up the fifth prince who was asleep in the bed.

Ji Ziqing waved his hand slightly and signaled the nanny who was taking care of his younger brother to retreat aside first.

The little boy lying on the bed had very delicate and beautiful facial features, but he had a pale complexion and lacked blood and energy, and even his body was a little thin and weak.

Ji Ziqing stretched out his hand and gently stroked his little brother's cheeks that were not fat. He sighed softly as if nothing had happened. After a long time, he stood up from the bed and ordered the nanny beside Jingli, "When Yuanbao wakes up, take him to Fengyi Palace to see the queen mother and the princess."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The long-faced nanny hurriedly responded in a low voice, and at the same time bent her knees to congratulate, "Congratulations to Your Majesty."

This nanny who cares for the fifth prince is also the nanny in charge next to the empress dowager, called Yinhua, and is known as Hua. Because the empress dowager is getting older, she is afraid that the weak fifth prince will be scared when the childbirth occurs. His Majesty the Emperor will bring his younger brother to his palace, play at the empress dowager during the day, and sleep in Ganming Palace at night.

Ji Zifei nodded and left.

It has been less than half a year since the death of the late emperor. It is currently in the period of national mourning for a whole year. The war in the north has not been completely quelled. The legitimate sister was born at this time and it is not appropriate to handle it in large quantities. Ji Ziqing looked at the stars in the sky in the summer night and said, "Liu Quanshun, what about the princess's nickname, what about Fanfan?"

Liu Quanshun replied with his head down: "Your Majesty, I vaguely remember that the Empress Dowager said that if you add a younger brother, your nickname will be called Jixiang. If you add a younger sister, your nickname will be called Ruyi..." What did you suddenly mention of the "fan"? I don't understand it a little.

Ji Ziqing glanced at Liu Quanshun with his head hanging down and said coldly: "I'm talking so much."

Liu Quanshun said with a bitter face: "Your Majesty, I am just telling the truth."

Ji Ziqing brushed her sleeves and walked away: "Go to the Imperial Study."

Liu Quanshun hurriedly followed him with a scrupulous tone, and said with a diligent to please: "Your Majesty, it's already the second update. You can read the memorial for another hour, so hurry up and go to bed. The Empress Dowager said, "You are still growing and you can't sleep too late. If you don't listen to your advice, even if you are punished and scolded, you have to be a god for the Empress Dowager..."

"I understand, Long! The man is 10, Yi Wei fed the swollen badger, and asked the badger.

Liu Quanshun breathed a sigh of relief: It was really not easy for him to be sandwiched between the Empress Dowager and His Majesty the Emperor.

The next day after going to court, Ji Ziqing went straight to Fengyi Palace.

Fengyi Palace is the bedroom of the empress of the central palace. As for the empress dowager, she must live in Cining Palace.

However, when the late emperor passed away, Empress Hui'an was nearly four months pregnant. Ji Ziqing, who was still the crown prince at that time, had not yet married Princess Dong, who had made a surefire, to the palace. Because of the national mourning, Ji Ziqing extended his marriage to the post-national mourning period. Because he did not want to ask his mother to suffer a little fatigue, Ji Ziqing simply asked his mother to live in Fengyi Palace. It would not be too late to move to the palace after giving birth to the late emperor's posthumous bones and blood.

There was a large square couch next to the window of Yihua inner hall. Next to the couch were two middle-aged nannies, one was the Yinhua nannies who were dedicated to taking care of the fifth prince, and the other was the single eyelid and small eyes, called Su Rong, who had been assigned by the Queen Mother to the newborn little daughter.

On the couch was a bright yellow satin swaddle with a double carp playing with lotus flowers, and a quiet little boy was lying beside him, staring at the swaddle intently.

"Yuanbao." Ji Ziqing walked into the inner hall and laughed gently.

The little boy who was lying obediently next to the cradle, looked up and showed an extremely quiet and beautiful smile, and his voice was sweet: "Brother!"

Ji Ziqing felt soft and hugged the beautiful little boy and sat on his lap. He gently tapped his thin cheeks and spoke in a warm voice: "Do you like the little sister?"

"I like it." Ji Ziheng, who is only over three years old, has clear eyes and is clear and clear. "My sister is so soft. I just touched her little hand."

Ji Ziqing grabbed the younger brother's little hand and smiled, "Yuanbao's hand is also a little soft..." After a pause, he asked the good baby lying in his arms, "Yuanbao, let's give my sister a nickname, is it okay to call it Fanfan?"

"Sanfan? Why do you call Fanfan? The queen said that she should call her sister Ruyi." Ji Ziheng showed a confused and confused look on her face.

Ji Ziqing pinched his younger brother's soft hand and explained in a warm voice: "Yesterday, when my brother was born, he was always stuffy. When she was born crying, his brother's heart suddenly stopped being hot, just like a gust of wind being blown by a fan..."
