Yinsu didn't know if his younger brother knew that his mother was crazy. Although everyone in the palace only said that the imperial concubine was on the sick bed, he heard from the maids in Changchun Palace that he already knew that the imperial concubine Wen, the concubine of the 10th prince, was crazy.
It is said that my great-grandmother was frightened before she passed away, but this was a secret of the palace and could not be revealed to anyone. At his age, he already understood.
"The Imperial Grandmother always said that my mother-in-law was sick and wouldn't let me disturb her." Brother Ten pouted and muttered, "But I miss her a little. I haven't seen my mother-in-law for a long time. Is she seriously ill?"
, like the imperial concubine?"
The eighth prince looked at the people around him. The three or four little eunuchs who were following the tenth prince didn't look very big. They must have been playmates on weekdays. They were young and ignorant, so they followed him. And the eighth prince himself also
Not very old, but children at this age are particularly easy to be self-righteous. They always feel that when they grow up, they will do some stupid things that seem smart.
At this time, the eighth elder brother saw that his younger brother was pitiful, and he inevitably felt a little proud of being an elder brother. Moreover, he himself did not have the care of his biological mother, so he asked the tenth elder brother: "You can go to Xianfu Palace by yourself, are you afraid to go? Do you want it?"
I’ll take you with me.”
This was the purpose of Brother Ten's visit. He was a little scared when talking to the other brothers. He knew that Brother Eighth was alone in the study today, so he came here specially. It happened that the Queen Mother was visiting guests, and no one paid attention to him. He was outside the study.
After waiting for half an hour, it was indeed not in vain.
The two brothers went to Xianfu Palace hand in hand. After a few words of persuasion from the eighth prince's eunuch, they could only follow behind. They thought that the entrance to Xianfu Palace was tightly guarded and the two young masters might not be able to see them there.
Concubine Wen.
In fact, the door lock of Xianfu Palace has been removed for a long time. After the imperial doctor concluded to the emperor that the imperial concubine's hysteria could not be cured, the emperor no longer had the door locked tightly except for sending more people to watch it. In the past, he was tricked because of the locked door.
, now it is open openly, but no one cares about it. Since Concubine Wen appeared in Cining Palace inexplicably that day, it has been peaceful and nothing happened again.
The eighth elder brother and the tenth elder brother came over chatting and laughing. Unexpectedly, before they reached Xianfu Palace, they met the eldest elder brother Fujin on the way. Today, the Queen Mother invited several princes Fu Jin to reminisce about old times. Da Fujin was accompanied by several aunts.
My aunt also entered the palace together, but she did not go to Changchun Palace to see her mother-in-law, and Concubine Hui did not come to cause any trouble. It seemed that some tacit understanding had been reached in front of the Queen Mother, and the two parties had not interfered with each other for a long time.
"Why is the eldest sister-in-law here?" The 10th prince knew that Da Fujin was entering the palace today, and the 8th prince was a little surprised.
The two brothers stood still and exchanged greetings with their sister-in-law. Dafujin asked awkwardly: "Tenth brother, do you recognize Aiqiu?"
Brother Ten thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I can't remember my face. There are many girls here today. Which one is Fei Qiu?"
Dafujin frowned and said, "She is the granddaughter of Prince An. Just now the Queen Mother asked me to take her to Changchun Palace to pay her respects, but she disappeared in the blink of an eye."
It turned out that due to the request of Prince An and old Fujin, the Queen Mother asked Da Fujin to take his granddaughter to Chengqian Palace to meet Concubine Hui. The reason was naturally that they understood that Da Fujin was not willing, so the Queen Mother sent her people around her.
Grandma followed, and then she half-pushed her to the ground. Unexpectedly, she suddenly felt uncomfortable in her stomach on the way, so she stopped the sedan chair. A crowd of people gathered around her to let her take a breath, and the child disappeared.
The Miss Feiqiu mentioned by Da Fujin lost her parents when she was young, so her grandfather took her into the royal palace to raise her. Her mother-in-law was the concubine born to Prince An and Fu Jin. Although she was a concubine, she was also a princess conferred by the imperial court. However,
She married a non-human, her consort Guoluo Luo Mingshang, who was sentenced by the emperor and lost his life because of his addiction to gambling and corruption. The princess soon died of depression, leaving behind an orphan girl.
Nowadays, Prince An, Fujin, is the third step-in-law of the royal family. He has little affection for the children of the concubines born to Fujin. However, the old prince is gone, and the palace has lost support. For them, they must actively win over the royal family.
It was very important to have personal connections to stabilize the status of the prince. One of the main ways was marriage. This little girl who was living under someone else's roof became a favorite for a while.
After he was discharged from the imperial court, Fujin often took his children in and out of the palace and palaces. It would be a good thing if the children could marry into other palaces, but it would be even better if they could marry the emperor's brothers in the palace. The portrait of Xiao Guo Luo Luo
Her grandmother was a beautiful little girl. In the eyes of old Fujin, the child's face was enough to secure a good future for her.
At this moment, Da Fujin could only be heard sighing: "Forget it, I'll look for it again. There's only such a small place, where else can she run to? The palace can't tolerate a little girl running around. Sooner or later, someone will send her back."
The eighth elder brother and the tenth elder brother were helpless. They didn't necessarily go to help Da Fujin find someone. They were planning to continue going to Xianfu Palace after the sister-in-law left. Unexpectedly, Da Fujin held on to his grandma's hand and walked a few steps. Suddenly...
She screamed, and her heavy body fell down little by little. The two children looked on blankly. They saw the mothers and palace maids rushing around and shouting, and they heard a few words, as if they were about to give birth.
The two brothers hardly remembered what happened next. When they woke up, they were already sitting in the eighth prince's room in Changchun Palace. Because Dafujin's amniotic fluid broke nearby, he was carried directly into Changchun Palace.
The imperial physician Wen Po was called in. Although Dafujin was supposed to be born in August according to previous calculations, there are indeed signs of premature labor now and delivery is imminent.
The tenth elder brother couldn't sit still and wanted to leave, but the Changchun Palace was noisy. Baoyun guarded the brothers and advised them not to move yet. Yinhu lay in front of the window and looked at Concubine Hui's room, muttering
He said: "It would be great if the emperor's sister-in-law could have a little nephew."
When Bao Yun heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Now that Dafujin was born prematurely, he didn't know whether the mother and child would be safe. It was not important where the fate of a boy or a girl came from.
In this compartment, Concubine Hui was waiting restlessly outside the house. The fetus had not yet entered the pelvis and the fetal position was not correct. She was worried that her daughter-in-law would not be able to give birth. In other words, she was even more worried that the fetus would finally be a boy but would be suffocated to death in her belly.
She was filled with hatred and anxiety, but she couldn't tell the imperial doctor Wen Po clearly yet. Because in her opinion, the most important thing was to keep the child. As long as she could give birth to the emperor's eldest grandson, the life of her daughter-in-law was not important. There were many young ladies from the clan's aristocratic families who chose her.
There is no shortage of mistresses in Brother's house.
The news alarmed the Sixth Palace. Everyone knew that their eldest brother Fujin was born prematurely. At that time, Lan Qi was accompanying the imperial concubine in the Chengqian Palace. The imperial concubine wanted to eat crabmeat soup on a whim. The crabs were not plump at the moment, and the palace was not a big crab eater.
After spending a lot of effort to get crabs and remove the crab meat, she finally got a cup. She was feeding the imperial concubine one mouthful at a time. The two of them were talking very comfortably.
When the news about Dafujin came, they sent a palace maid to greet them as usual. The imperial concubine sneered: "Concubine Hui is so anxious to have her grandson, the poor thing is that child." Then she told Lan Qi, "I chose Yuxi.
, even if you don’t like it, for Yinzhen’s sake, don’t embarrass her too much in the future. As for childbirth, I have achieved nothing in my life, so don’t force children, and Yinzhen will not only have one Fujin, so don’t worry about it.
People give him children."
Lan Qi held an orange-red soup full of crab roe in her hand. She took a spoonful and asked the imperial concubine to take another sip. She smiled and said to herself: "They are the ones who live the small life. What do we care about across the palace wall?"
.”
The imperial concubine clicked her tongue: "You always have such a temper and are so kind to everyone. I really don't understand. Don't you hate anyone in your heart? Do you agree to anything anyone asks you to do?"
Lan Qi didn't want to explain more and just smiled and said: "I am probably a good person born."
The imperial concubine was a little sad, she shook her head and didn't want to use crab meat soup anymore. There was a bit of sadness in her eyes, as if she was talking to herself, and she seemed to say to Lan Qi: "What does he like about you? Even if you have a good face, sooner or later you will want it."
I'm tired of seeing why those women can't make him happy even though they try their best. After more than ten years, he still has you in his heart."
Lan Qi didn't say anything. She washed her hands and took a handkerchief to wipe it with the imperial concubine. However, she heard the imperial concubine say: "Did you know that the emperor conferred Niu Hulu's clan back then and told her to take good care of you? It was like an exchange."
The conditions she met, that queen of hers was really aggrieved."
"I don't know, I don't dare to be a concubine," Lan Qi said. She could no longer remember the past events of more than ten years.
The imperial concubine smiled faintly: "Except for the things I did when I bullied you, after what happened to the fourth elder brother, have you ever hated me? The emperor sent the fourth elder brother to me, probably because he wanted me to stop bullying you, but after all, it was robbery.
Do you really not hate your child?"
Lan Qi's smile was calm and gentle, and she said slowly: "I want to blame the emperor as well. It is the emperor's will, and it is also the emperor's feelings for you. I have told you a long time ago, because you treat your fourth brother well, I
No hate at all.”
The imperial concubine looked at her intently, as if she had never thought Wu Yashi was beautiful. Now looking at her light and gentle smile, she was jealous of this unique beauty that belonged to her. There were some things hidden in her heart that she didn't want to say,
The imperial concubine didn't want to admit it, but she didn't expect that the person in front of her could persist for so many years without showing anything on her face.
The imperial concubine couldn't remember when she figured it out. She just felt more and more emotional in recent days. She knew Xuan Ye and knew how deeply he loved the people he cared about. With his domination of the world, he had many ways to prevent himself from letting himself go.
If I bully Wu Yashi again, I still feel that I won't have to exchange the fourth elder brother. How the fourth elder brother came to Chengqian Palace does not seem to be the same as before.
Naturally, she just thought about it for herself, and she also hoped that all this was because the emperor loved her deeply and felt sorry for her childlessness.
Outside the dormitory, Brother Si, who had returned from school, was standing outside the door covered in sweat. He heard the conversation between the two mothers. The deep expression on his face was a bit heartwarming. He raised his hand to wipe off the sweat and turned around.
Go to your own house.
The sky in July is getting dark early, and no news has come out in the Changchun Palace yet, but everyone is waiting for the news, wondering if they can get a grandson of the emperor this time.
In the Yanxi Palace, the noble lady Jue Chan was dozing off with a book under the lamp. Xianghe came in from the door, woke up the master and asked her if she was hungry. The noble lady's appetite has been bad since autumn, so she put down a bowl of crab meat.
Geng said: "Empress De Fei sent it to you, would you like to try it?"
Noble Jue Chan frowned and shook his head: "It's too cold and fishy."
While they were talking, Yi promised to come from behind. He was obviously a few years older, but he weakly said to the noble Jue Chan: "My concubine's maid said that there is a child sitting outside our door. It's dark, and I can't."
Dare to look at it, it’s so scary.”
Xianghe said cleverly: "I heard that Ningshou Palace is looking for a child. It is said to be a young lady from Prince An's palace. Is it that young lady? Isn't it possible that she hasn't been found yet? How long has it been?"
