Ping An Biography

Amidst the continuous sound of firecrackers, amidst the white snow and red lanterns, amidst the smoke of gunpowder and the smell of meat, Daming ushered in the new year.The Jingshi recorded the fourth year of Xuande, and the Huguang recorded the 31st year of Jianwen.From the first year of Xuande to the present, from the Han Dynasty to the Huguang uprising, the flames of war have been fighting for four years, and the war has been fought for four years; four years are also the time when Emperor Jianwen sat on the dragon chair, and the battle of Jingnan continued. time.But this time I don't know when it will end, people are looking forward to that day, whoever is on the throne, just don't fight.

Zhang Ning is 27 years old this year, and will be 27 in autumn.Recently, Tuesday's mother was "unwell", as if she was showing signs of pregnancy, which became his main concern.Because he has long been looking forward to having a successor, so that he can follow the hearts of the brothers who conquered the world.In front of Yao Ji, she was also very concerned, and said in public that she would ask the imperial doctor in the palace to come in to have a look and confirm.

It happened that when Luo Yaoniang, the daughter of Yang Shoufu, came to visit the imperial concubine, there were many people in Yao Ji's hall, and even Zhang Ning was called over.Mother on Tuesday was a little embarrassed, and worried that if she wasn't pregnant, wouldn't she be making a fool of herself in public?

On Tuesday Niang made an excuse and said: "The imperial doctors in the palace are all old men, I don't want to see men. Let's talk about it in a few days."

As a concubine, she was indeed very particular about her. Before she gave birth, she almost never left the door. She went out of the palace once or twice with Zhang Ning.In the past half a year or so, she didn't even go back to her mother's house, she was in Chu Palace all day, surrounded by maids and the eyes and ears of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Gu Chunhan on the side couldn't bear her being so pretentious, as if she was flaunting her innocence, because Gu Chunhan's background was a bit disgraceful, so she laughed immediately without hesitation: "The imperial doctor can't see her face through the curtain, just Stretch out your hand to feel the pulse, what's wrong with it? Besides, people eat five grains, who doesn't want to see the doctor?"

"I just don't want to see each other. Why do you let others touch your hands?" Zhou Zhouniang guessed Gu Chunhan's thoughts and deliberately angered her.

At this moment, Luo Yaoniang suddenly said: "I have a sister who is skilled in medicine. Usually we are inseparable, and today I followed her, but only I was allowed to enter the palace gate, and she was waiting outside the palace gate. If you don’t call me in to give Wang Hao a happy ending, she’s still a girl with yellow flowers, so Wang Hao doesn’t have to deal with those old men.”

Yao Ji looked sideways slightly, and the attendant Qiu Ye asked politely, "Is she a relative of Miss Luo?"

Luo Yaoniang pondered for a moment, and had no choice but to say: "It's the sister my father made friends with when he was an official in the capital, her name is Xiao Qing. Her father is an imperial physician in the court and my father also made friends. I heard that the imperial physician Xiao committed a serious crime and was sent to prison. Xiao Qing came She took refuge in my house. Don't worry, I have known her for many years, and she is a kind and responsible person."

At this time Yao Ji said softly: "Since she is an old friend of the Yang family, there is no need to interrogate her. Qiu Ye, go and bring her in, just to give the princess a pulse. Treat each other with courtesy."

Qiu Ye clasped her fists and said, "Yes."

A group of people talked and laughed in the hall for a while, then Xiao Qing was brought in by Qiu Ye.When I entered the door, I saw that he was wearing a chest-length skirt, well-dressed and well-behaved, with a weak figure, and he really didn't look like a villain.Chunmei who was present looked at her fingers calmly, the fingers were slender and delicate, and she kept a smile on her face... If it was an assassin from the imperial court, she could fake her face and demeanor, but her hands couldn't be faked. It is impossible to pass the hands so thin, and there is no gap at all when they are combined.

Xiao Qing saw that the room was full of strangers, and only knew Luo Yaoniang.She didn't panic, first bent her knees and made a blessing, and said: "My little girl has met all the nobles."

Luo Yaoniang pointed to Zhou Niang and said: "This is Princess Xiang, she is not feeling well recently, my sister will let you see first."

Xiao Qing walked over, and Mother on Tuesday took a look at her, and hurriedly asked the maid to move a stool for her to sit on.Then put his arm on the table, Xiao Qing took out a thick handkerchief from his sleeve, gently and skillfully folded it neatly, put it under Zhou Niang's wrist, and said softly: "Princess, loosen your hand." After finishing speaking, he supported his sleeve with one hand, and stretched out his onion-like fingers to gently press on Tuesday's Niang's veins.

After a while, Xiao Qing raised her head and glanced at Zhou Yiniang. Zhou Yiniang was very sensitive, and immediately asked, "What's wrong?"

Xiao Qing held his breath, and switched hands, let me confirm.After a while, she stood up and saluted: "Congratulations, princess, it's not a disease, you are happy."

"Really?" Suddenly a baritone said.

Xiao Qing followed the sound and saw a heroic man with a sense of oppression staring at him.She was stunned for a moment, and said calmly: "So, if a little girl can miss her pregnancy, how dare she say that she understands medical skills?"

Zhang Ning rubbed his hands, and suddenly said: "It's worth my hard work every night!" After saying that, he realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, and his face was a little embarrassed.

The women immediately looked at each other, and finally one of them laughed out loud, while the others couldn't help but smile.

At this time, he took out a jeweled golden hair flower from his hair, and said: "Come here, I don't easily give people what I wear, but I should give a magpie."

Xiao Qing hurriedly said: "I dare not."

"Don't refuse." Yao Ji smiled, and looked at Zhou Zhouniang again, "This is a joy, and it will be even more joy when you give birth if you can pass on the incense."

Seeing all the eyes on her on Tuesday, Niang was both happy and stressed. It would be bad if she gave birth to a girl.In fact, she also wanted a daughter herself, but she couldn't stand the pressure from the world. A daughter was really useless in the royal family...for the concubine.Only for those concubines, having daughters has a great effect. As long as they have children, they don't have to be buried when their husbands die.

On Tuesday, Niang looked at Luo Yaoniang with a blushing face, and said, "Thank you very much."

Luo Yaoniang laughed and said, "You don't need to thank me, whoever takes the pulse will have the same result." While joking with Zhou Yiniang, she glanced at Zhang Ning from the corner of her eye, with mixed feelings in her heart.This man was originally hers, not only became the husband of another woman, he even had children; what's more, he just said in front of his face that he worked every night, it was really shameless, when he touched other women's breasts on the road, it took up all his money. Forget all the cheap things?

But today I saw Mother on Tuesday, and I feel that this princess is not as bad as imagined, she looks pretty good, gentle and delicate.This might be a good thing...

Yao Ji said generously: "I'll tell the dining room to make preparations, and we will have a family banquet in the Beigong at noon tomorrow. All the people in the family will congratulate Er Niang."

Tuesday Niang said: "I dare not make you worry so much."

Yao Ji shook her head slightly, and said with a smile: "Whoever dares to make you wronged in the future, just tell me, even if it is the king of Xiang, I will restrain him!"
