Forbidden Autumn, Summer, Winter and Spring Rebirth

Because the Emperor and Queen Mother were in a good mood, the palace was also very happy.

On May 29th, an auspicious day, we set off to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat as usual.

When a noble lady is pregnant, special care must be taken of her. The Emperor and Queen Mother have specifically asked her to do so.

Chungui's residence in Yuanmingyuan also had a new arrangement, and was replaced by "Yuan Feiyu Yue" which is closer to Qingyan in Kyushu. The emperor often went to Chungui's place to sit and sit. Even if he couldn't go, he would send someone to go there. greeting.

All the concubines and concubines in the palace were somewhat dissatisfied with the emperor's battle, and Chun Gui was also flattered.

Chungui was not very favored on weekdays, and could only sleep with her for about ten days, but since she was pregnant with a baby, the emperor seemed to hold her in the palm of his hand, and he kept her close to her in everything he ate and clothed.

When Xia Dongchun was chatting with Concubine Jing, Concubine Hui, and Concubine Ji, she actually mentioned the emperor's importance to Chun Guiren's pregnancy.

"Chungui is really lucky. Although the emperor comforted her a lot when she lost her child, the favor was not as good as that of concubines Jin and the others. She was actually pregnant with a dragon fetus." Concubine Jing said happily for Chungui.

"Look at how much the emperor attaches great importance to Chun Gui's son this time. Come to think of it, when Chun Gui gives birth to an heir, he will definitely be promoted to the throne." Xia Dongchun agreed.

"Sisters, don't you think that the emperor attaches too much importance to Chun Gui's pregnancy? When he heard that the imperial doctor came to report that Chun Gui was pregnant, the emperor was also a little overjoyed. I watched it with my own eyes." The concubine said with a smile.

"Yes, it stands to reason that although no heirs have been born in the past few years, and the two children of Chungui and Qigui have been lost one after another, the emperor has many children, so it is not such a surprise." Concubine Jing said slightly. doubted.

"Could it be that the emperor realizes that his health is not as good as before, and now suddenly one of his concubines is pregnant, which proves that our emperor's sword is still young!" Concubine Hui said disdainfully.

Xia Dongchun covered her lips and chuckled, but Concubine Jing was a little shocked, "Sister, what's going on? I've heard you say such mean things these days." Concubine Jing said teasingly.

"Maybe it's a hot day, which makes people feel anxious for no reason." Shen Meizhuang was also stunned for a moment, as if he had just realized that he had been unusual recently.

"It is true that it has been a little hot recently." Concubine Jing said.

Just as he was talking, Concubine Jing's maid came over to report, and Doctor Wen came to take Concubine Jing's pulse.

Doctor Wen lowered his head and came in, opened the medicine box, took out a silk handkerchief and put it on Concubine Jing's wrist.

Ever since the palace maid said that the imperial doctor who came to ask for Ping'an Pulse was Imperial Physician Wen, Xia Dongchun felt that Shen Meizhuang's expression was a bit unnatural, and thought it was an illusion. After Imperial Physician Wen came over, Shen Meizhuang became more and more uncomfortable, and the fan in his hand also flapped faster. .

"Sister Huifei seems to be very hot, and she has pearls in her mouth. Please give us another bowl of ice cheese." Concubine Ji said.

Xia Dongchun felt that something was wrong with Shenmeizhuang, but he didn't think much about it.

Back at their residence, Xia Dongchun, Hongmin and Qiongwei had dinner together. The two children chatted about how they went to play with Brother Six today, and he actually read a book all afternoon.

"Mom, why don't my sister and I read a book?" Hongmin asked, raising his head.

"Yes, Brother Six read books all afternoon today."

Xia Dongchun smiled and said softly, "Eniang wants you to play more. When Hongmin and Qiongwei turn four next year, they will start reading and learning calligraphy." "But the eighth brother Hongmin Min is still younger, and the imperial grandmother also keeps him in school every day. The ninth brother doesn't come out often, and sisters Shuhe and Wen Yi are also very busy every day. Hongmin and his sister can only play with Jinghe."

Xia Dongchun listened with a smile. She knew that before the Queen was abolished, the Eighth Prince was detained all day in Jingren Palace. When he arrived at Shoukang Palace, the Queen Mother never relaxed him, even though he was older than Liu. My elder brother is one year younger, but he has to follow the example of his sixth elder brother in everything.

The sixth elder brother's early wisdom and diligence are obvious to all. He doesn't need anyone to restrain him. Every afternoon he will find a book to read by himself. If he doesn't understand something, he will ask Concubine Jing or Concubine Hui for advice. Otherwise, just mark it and wait until you see the emperor to ask for advice.

Even though the eighth elder brother performed well, he did not gain much favor from the emperor, but the emperor's preference for the sixth elder brother was indeed obvious to all.

Generally speaking, among the children in this palace, except for the sixth elder brother and the ninth elder brother who are more valued by the emperor, the rest are about the same.

Xia Dongchun always felt that since the news of Concubine Wan's death came and the emperor fell ill because of it, the sixth elder brother became more important to the emperor. Not to mention the third elder brother and the fourth elder brother watching politics, the sixth elder brother now often goes in and out of the Yangxin Hall. Sometimes the emperor is approving papers in the Yangxin Hall, and the sixth elder brother sits aside and reads.

Concubine Jing once quietly mentioned that the emperor once said to Hongluo: A long time ago, it was like this. I was sitting here handling official business, and your mother-in-law was sitting in your place, reading quietly.

Brother Six even came back to ask Concubine Jing because of these words, and asked when E Niang and Huang Ama were so affectionate, but Concubine Jing answered him vaguely.

Xia Dongchun thought a lot, then lowered his head and looked at the two little people beside him. Hongmin, the seventh elder brother, seemed transparent in this harem. In fact, it was mostly because Xia Dongchun didn't like to show off.

That's good, even if she occupies a concubine position, her mother's family is declining, and the prince under her knees is not outstanding, so it is more stable.

On the surface, she was on good terms with Concubine Jing and the others, but in fact, she had already submitted the letter of surrender when she first requested to join forces.

She assisted Concubine Jing and Concubine Hui in fighting against the Queen's party, and her son Seventh Prince would become Sixth Prince's right-hand man in the future.

Just like today's Seventeenth Master and the Emperor.

This is the promise she made to her concubine.

As for Concubine Jing, although her family background was mediocre, her father was only a magistrate, far away from the center of power in the capital, but she had a very suitable family background.

If the family background is too weak, the emperor will be afraid of him easily; if he is too humble, he will not be able to help the prince at all.

Concubine Jing was raising her sixth elder brother, and she never had great ambitions. However, since the emperor informed the clan, she changed the name of Yudie and recorded the sixth elder brother in her name, and watched the emperor treat Hongluo more. She was favored and supported by Concubine Hui and Concubine Chang, so she took that step psychologically.

On this day, another big thing happened. Brother Si accidentally ate the poisoned mung bean soup. Fortunately, he only took two sips and the poisoning was not serious.

When the fourth elder brother woke up from a coma, he told the emperor that the mung bean soup he drank was sent by concubine Qi. The third elder brother and he each had a bowl, but the third elder brother was safe and sound.

Now that the weather is hot, Qi Concubine often sends people to bring mung bean soup to the third elder brother to cool down. Every time, the fourth elder brother is envious. She bluntly said that no matter how expensive the delicacies in the world are, they are not as good as a bowl of the summer soup made by E Niang. mung bean soup.

After several times, the third elder brother became a little soft-hearted and asked the palace maid who came to deliver the mung bean soup to tell E Niang to prepare the fourth elder brother's mung bean soup as well. Today, there will be two portions of the mung bean soup.
