At the end of the afternoon, Qingyan, who had slept for nearly two hours, slowly opened her eyes and regained consciousness. She quickly turned her head and looked inside the bed. Sure enough, she saw that the vernix had been washed away and had been fed by the nannies.
The two little brothers were sleeping side by side in golden swaddles with their eyes closed.
She was thinking about the things she had worried about before getting pregnant, and hurriedly put her elbows on the bed and sat up, reaching out to untie the swaddling clothes. She saw that the bodies of the two brothers were intact, without any signs of congenital defects.
Most of the worries in her heart were put aside, and then she quickly mobilized her powers and looked into the bodies of the little guys. When she felt the familiar power fluctuations coming from the two brothers' bodies, her eyes widened in surprise.
.
The twins actually have the same mutated earth power as hers in their bodies. Although it is very weak, it does exist!
She couldn't help but lean forward, getting closer to the two babies. She held her breath and felt it carefully for a while, and then she could barely estimate that the superpowers in the two brothers' bodies were at most about level one, and they couldn't do anything outside of the superpowers.
Naturally, there will never be any special abilities discovered by the servants of the palace.
Possibility, but the superpower can subtly change their physical fitness, and even the speed of self-healing of wounds is much faster than that of ordinary people. After discovering this unexpected joy, Qingyan touched the corners of her mouth with her fingertips with a smile.
Touching the little guys' tender little faces, their brows and eyes are so gentle.
Sitting on the carved chair at the door, happily making red bellybands for the two brothers, when I heard the movement from the inner room, I quickly put down my needlework, opened the orange-red cotton door curtain and walked in.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw my master sitting on the edge of the bed with smooth black hair, ready to put on the indoor shoes on the footrest and get out of bed. I was so scared that my heart skipped a beat.
Then he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him:
"Master, what are you doing? You can't move around during confinement!"
As Bai Lu spoke, she stretched out her hands to push the imperial concubine back onto the bed. She also shook off the brocade quilt that had been kicked to the end of the bed and covered the imperial concubine tightly back.
Being surrounded by Bai Lu from top to bottom, Qingyan couldn't help but feel embarrassed. She felt like she was being swaddled like a baby like the two brothers beside her.
Seeing Bai Lu staring at her with a "reprimanding" look that said "Master, if you don't obey me again, I will tell the lady", Qingyan quickly smiled flatteringly at her confidant, the eldest maid, and then turned her head and patted her with her hand.
The twins sleeping next to them asked:
"Lu, who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother among them?"
"Master, the one with the blue string next to you is carrying your elder brother, and the one with the red string is the younger brother. There is only about two quarters of an hour between the two little brothers. Doctor Zhang has also given them
They looked at it carefully and said that although the little brothers are not as big as those who were born at full term, their bodies and bones are very healthy."
Bai Lu said with a smile.
After hearing what she said, Qingyan felt completely relieved about the twins' bodies.
At this time, the cotton door curtain in the inner room was opened again from the outside.
The next moment, Tong Jia, who was wearing a reddish-brown dress embroidered with plum blossom patterns, walked in slowly with a mahogany tray in her hand.
The master and servant turned to look at the door, and saw a small celadon-colored bowl placed in the center of the wooden tray in Tong Jia's hand. Steaming white steam was coming out of the small bowl.
"Mother, what did you cook?"
Qingyan was supported by Bai Lu and sat down on the bed. She looked at the milky white soup handed to her by her mother in confusion and asked.
After her daughter took the small bowl, Tong Jia placed the wooden tray on the huanghuali wood table not far away, took out a finely crafted rabbit skin forehead wiper from her arms and put it on her daughter's forehead. After finishing these
Then he sat down next to the bed, pointed at the small bowl and explained with a smile:
"This is crucian carp tofu soup. E Niang cooked it for more than an hour in the small kitchen, and cooked all the fish meat. She also filtered it with gauze and carefully sifted out the fish bones and bones.
Don’t worry about the soft tofu and green vegetable leaves that you put in the soup. Drinking this will help you produce milk."
"Madam, it is against the rules of the palace for the master to breastfeed the little brothers himself."
After Bai Lu understood what Tong Jiashi meant, she couldn't help being a little dumbfounded.
Tong Jia also knew that this sounded a bit unruly. Not to mention the concubines in the palace, even the ladies of powerful families would not breastfeed themselves after giving birth.
She coughed twice, waved her hands in embarrassment and said:
"Yan'er, Bai Lu, I don't mean to feed them all the time. You only need to feed the two brothers for ten days and a half. This is the feeding method my mother told me when I gave birth to Yan'er. She said that the mother
The milk you just gave birth to is good, and feeding the babies is the best way to replenish your body."
"When I gave birth to Yan'er, Gelfen, and Aljishan, I secretly breastfed them during the confinement period. You three siblings were sick more often than the other cousins when you were young.
There are few of them."
Qingyan couldn't help but blinked when she heard this. She didn't expect that her mother-in-law and her grandmother actually knew about "colostrum" and "transitional milk." She nodded and stirred the crucian carp soup a few times with a white porcelain spoon, then raised her neck and poured it into the soup.
I finished the soup slowly.
After listening to Tong Jia's words, Bai Lu knew that feeding her two little brothers like this was good for their health, so she stopped trying to stop them.
…
As the first twin princes of the royal family since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, their birth date and lucky big earlobes also attracted a lot of honor from their direct relatives, the Queen Mother and their direct relatives, Mafa Khan, so the two brothers were captured as soon as they landed.
The inner treasury gates of Qianqing Palace, Cining Palace, and Shoukang Palace seemed to be opening to release water, and rewards poured out like flowing water to Chuxiu Palace, the private treasury of the imperial concubine and the twins.
After expansion and expansion, the grand scene of Chuxiu Palace really made everyone in the harem jealous.
Waiting until November 21, the third day after the twins were born, Kangxi asked the clan to give the brothers a jade certificate, and specially sent the imperial guards to send 10,000 taels of sesame oil money to Longquan Temple, and signed Master Linghui's signature in the paper.
The last two characters of "" were separated and used as the names of the twins. The elder brother who was born first was ranked thirteenth and was named "Yinxiang". The younger brother who was born later was ranked fourteenth and was named "Yinzhen". At the same time, he was still
A grand baptism ceremony was held for the twins in the main hall of Chuxiu Palace.
The baptism ceremony was personally presided over by the Empress Dowager Qi Qige. The Empress Dowager also rolled up her sleeves like a great-grandmother from an ordinary wealthy family and sat in the exquisite red wooden basin with fish, dragon and lotus, pulling each other's throats, facing each other and crying.
The howling little brothers took a bath.
In addition to the concubines of the harem, the princes of the clan, the princes of the counties, and Baylor's Fujin all came to the palace to observe the ceremony.
At the end of the Chen Dynasty, after Kangxi had attended the morning court, he brought a large group of sons, nephews, and prospective sons-in-law who were studying in Shangshufang and Nansan School in a hurry to Chuxiu Palace. As soon as he crossed the threshold and entered the hall, he heard the two twin sons shouting like each other.
It was a wailing "sound pot" sound that was about to overturn the roof. I was very happy on the spot. I felt that the two brothers were really full of energy! The more energy they have, the better the body is and the easier it is to maintain their health!
Da Tongbi, who was standing in the procession of the main concubines, saw the smile on Kangxi's face and found it dazzling. She closed her eyes, gritted her teeth, and then turned her gaze elsewhere.
Concubine Niu Hulu, who was standing side by side with her and holding Xiao Shi in her arms, also felt very angry. Originally, her son's status in the Forbidden City could be said to be third after the prince and fourth elder brother.
Bit.
Now that the two biological sons of the imperial concubine are born, her son, the son of the imperial concubine, can only be ranked fifth. Xiao Yiner himself was not taken seriously by the emperor because he was ranked lower, and now he is suppressed by the younger twins.
Sorry, Xiao Niu Hulu was extremely unwilling.
When he caught a glimpse of the undisguised joy on the face of the Empress Dowager, and hung the gold necklaces inlaid with rubies on the twins' necks, which seemed to be worth a lot, he lowered his head and took a look at the one-year-old girl nestled in his arms.
The silly son was still drooling happily, and when he stretched his neck to look in the direction of the twins, the smile on Xiao Niu Hulu's face gradually faded, and then disappeared completely.
The older and taller children Yinti, Yinreng, Yinzhi, Fulana, Moyaqi, and Yilmu could still maintain their composure and stand beside their Khan Ama to watch the ceremony. The remaining few
The younger ones, Little Douding, gathered tightly around the table and watched the two twin baby babies lying in the red wooden basin, crying and taking a bath.
One-and-a-half-year-old Xiao Jiu was held by her brother Xiao Wu by her right hand and stood beside her fourth brother and sister. She tried to stand on tiptoes and raised her neck, but she could barely see the twins' exposed little heads.
He looked to the left at Little Thirteen, and then to the right at Little Fourteen. Turning his head frequently made the golden bell tied to Xiao Jiu's head ring continuously. He saw that the two baby dolls looked exactly the same.
Finally, he couldn't hide the surprise in his big peach eyes. He blinked and rubbed them with his free left hand, and found that the two little dolls in front of him still looked the same.
Xiao Jiu recalled that when she was in Yikun Palace, her aunt once held Xiao Eleven in her arms and taught the two brothers that a folk magician could conjure two identical little dolls with his bare hands. At that time, he did not believe that this was
Really, but when he saw with his own eyes that Little Thirteen and Little Fourteen had the same face, he was really shocked in his heart. He couldn't help but use his little hands to tug on the clothes of his biological brother next to him, and his breasts were wheezing.
He spoke enviously:
"Wuge, Ge, Huang's forehead, Liang's trick, good, tired of harming the duck, can you let her change into a Xiaojiu again?"
"This way, I can find a double share of gold in the hall in one day."
Xiao Wu, who was just over a month away from turning four, heard his silly brother's words but didn't answer him yet. Standing with Xiao Jiu, Xiao Ba, who was about to turn three years old, smiled and shook his little head and answered seriously.
:
"Xiaojiu, I'm afraid this idea won't work. You were born by Empress Yi. If you want a brother who looks like you, you have to ask Empress Yi."
Xiao Jiu rolled his eyes when he heard Brother Eight's words. When Xiao Wu saw this, he secretly thought something bad. Before he could reach out his hand to cover Xiao Jiu's mouth, Xiao Jiu's loud shouting at the top of his lungs rang in his ears.
Milk sound:
"Well, Liang, when you get back, you can stuff me into your belly again. Don't be in a hurry to give birth to me. When there are two of me, you can put me in again.
Give, give birth, come out!"
As soon as Xiao Yinzhen finished speaking, everyone present burst into laughter. Concubine Yi's pretty face instantly turned as red as a ripe persimmon, and she hurriedly opened her legs and stood behind Concubine An.
, she felt that she would be really shameless in taking her little son out to meet people in the future. Her hunch was indeed accurate, Xiao Jiu was indeed born with a missing piece of barbecued pork in his brain!
When Xiao Niu Hulu heard this, she couldn't help but look at Guo Luoluo sympathetically. She really felt that it was really difficult for the person living behind her palace.
The corner of Da Tong's mouth couldn't help but twitch, thinking about the whole palace, no wonder it was only Brother Jiu who caught Zhou and came up with a golden abacus. This little idiot who cheated his own mother-in-law to the point where she couldn't get off the stage in public, Bai
Give it to her, she won’t even want it!
The jokes contributed by Xiaojiu made the already pleasant Baptism ceremony even more joyful.
At the end of the day, after the three baptismal rites officially ended, everyone who came to watch the ceremony was ready to go home. Mrs. Tong Jia returned to the inner room, took her daughter's hand, and earnestly told her to take a good confinement period, and then left.
Together with the clan members, they walked through the imperial garden and left the palace through the Shenwu Gate in the north to return to the Hesheli Mansion.
When Kangxi, the empress dowagers of the two palaces and the little prince left, Xiao Niu Hulu wrapped little Yiner tightly in a thick cloak, walked out of Chuxiu Palace quickly, and rushed to Yongshou Palace along the north-south palace road.
.
Who would have thought that mother and son had just crossed the threshold of the palace and walked into the front yard, when they saw Mother Du, who was wearing a brown flag uniform and with half-white hair, being held by two sturdy strange eunuchs holding a royal staff made of chestnut wood.
She was lying tightly on a wide bench. Not far away from her stood Wei Zhu, who was wearing a chief eunuch uniform and had a cold temperament!
