Qingxi Palace Crossing Jingfenghua

Chapter 198

An Cunfu, who was far away from the palace gate outside the Qianqing Palace, walked up and down anxiously, waiting for the emperor to report the good news to the emperor.After waiting for more than half an hour, there was the sound of retreating from the main hall, and An Cunfu hurriedly went to the place where the emperor must pass before going to court, waiting to see him.

"Slave pays respects to the emperor, the emperor's peace." An Cunfu saw the emperor from a distance and hurried forward.

"You are, you are from Jingren Palace, what happened to Concubine Jing?" Seeing the thick snow on An Cunfu's hat and shoulders, he knew that he had been waiting for a long time. If you are anxious to see him, could it be that something happened to Concubine Jing.

Yesterday he went to see Concubine Jing was still doing well, Concubine Jing was pregnant with Liujia and was about to give birth, what if something happened.

Kangxi couldn't help feeling flustered, inexplicably feeling fear and nervousness that he didn't even know about, and when he thought of Concubine Jing's accident, his heart ached.

It's no wonder that Kangxi thinks this way, there are always more bad things in the harem than good things, when an emperor encounters things, he always thinks of the bad first.

How could An Cunfu know what Kangxi was thinking, and he announced to Kangxi with joy on his face, "Happy event, it is a happy event, Your Majesty! This slave congratulated the Emperor, congratulations to the Emperor, and this morning, at the beginning of the hour, the slave gave birth to an elder brother. .”

"What did you say?" Kangxi couldn't help being surprised when he heard the good news, "You mean Concubine Jing was born?"

"Back to the emperor, the empress launched it in the morning, and gave birth to a little elder brother weighing seven catties and nine pounds at the beginning of the early morning."

"Slave, congratulations to the emperor!" Liang Jiugong was the first to react and immediately knelt down to congratulate Kangxi, and the palace servants who followed Kangxi also knelt down to congratulate Kangxi.

"Good! Good! Good! Liang Jiu's merits and rewards are repaid! Come and set up Jingren Palace!" Kangxi repeatedly said three good words, which shows that he is extremely happy in his heart, and even ordered to drive away without waiting for the court uniform Jingren Palace.

"Whoo!"

Liang Jiugong hurriedly led the order to make arrangements, and the servants of Qianqing Palace moved extremely quickly, but the dragon chariot was ready in a short while.

This year is really a year of great joy, whether it is the previous dynasty or the harem, there are happy events; the former dynasty just got a good news today that the capture of the Zheng family in Taiwan has won, and the harem has won three sons in a row this year; both inside and outside are happy events, Kangxi Dragon Heart Joy.

Knowing that Concubine Jing gave birth to another son, Kangxi even gave him a rich reward that was no less generous than what he had given Concubine Wen back then.

When Kangxi arrived at Jingren Palace, the concubines of the harem had already gathered in Jingren Palace. No matter how jealous and resentful the concubine was for Concubine Jing’s new son, or regretting that Concubine Jing was too strict and gave birth too quickly, she was still unhappy. No matter what, all the concubines came to Jingren Palace with beaming smiles.

Now Xiu Yu has given birth to a child and said that the concubines can go back if they come to see it or have someone send it to them, but all the concubines stayed in Jingren Palace and did not leave because they just wanted to meet the emperor in Jingren Palace.Especially for those concubines who are not favored, it is rare to see the emperor all year round except for the New Year's Day, so of course they will not let go of such an opportunity.It would be better if he could show his face in front of the emperor or attract the attention of the emperor.

"The Emperor is here!"

Hearing that the emperor's concubines were all beaming, they hurriedly smiled what they thought was the most dignified and appropriate.

"The concubine pays respects to the emperor, the emperor's peace."

I don't know if the concubine was overjoyed to see Kangxi, the voice of asking for peace was louder than usual and woke up the sleepy little guy in the room.

"Wow wow..."

Loud and loud baby cries came from the room, accompanied by Zhan Xiuyu's voice coaxing the baby: "Oh, oh, don't be afraid, Erniang is here, don't be afraid..."

This is to say that they scared the little elder brother!For a while, hearing Xiu Yu's voice coaxing the child, the concubines seemed to be stuck in acupuncture points, squatting there motionless, and no one dared to stand up until Kangxi called out, even the imperial concubine was the same.And the joyful expression on Kangxi's face was a little more annoyed, but hearing the child's loud and powerful crying, his mood rose a little bit.

"Okay, let's all get up." Kangxi waved his hand and said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Hurry up, take the little elder brother out and show it to the emperor." The imperial concubine sat down next to Kangxi and said with a smile on her face.

"Your Majesty, you can hear how powerful the cry is, and you can tell that Brother Thirteen must be a healthy, fat boy."

"I haven't seen the imperial concubine yet."

Kangxi's voice made people unable to hear the emotions, but the imperial concubine had served Kangxi for a long time and knew his mind quite well, so she could hear Kangxi's mind naturally.Kangxi was really displeased, he had never seen it before, didn't they come to Jingren Palace to see Concubine Jing and the little elder brother, and they haven't seen each other until now, what does this mean? Don't they come to Jingren Palace to see Lai Jing at all? Concubine and little elder brother.

In fact, Kangxi really didn't mean to wrong them by thinking this way. She really didn't come to see Concubine Jing this time. Now there are thirteen elder brothers in the harem. There is no elder brother in the harem, so it's not surprising.The ones who lack elder brothers are those who have never given birth to elder brothers. They can't conceive or give birth to elder brothers despite all their efforts, but others are born with elder brothers one after another. It really makes them jealous. sour.

If Concubine Jing hadn't given birth so quickly, maybe they still wanted to see Concubine Jing, of course to see Concubine Jing's pain, it would be better if Concubine Jing had a difficult delivery, but they didn't expect Concubine Jing to give birth so soon, Moreover, she gave birth to an elder brother who made them envy and hate, how could they be happy.

"The concubine and all the younger sisters have just arrived, and they are about to go to see the little elder brother." You came just as you were about to see the emperor, and when you came, the emperor, the concubines naturally called him to pick you up. How can elder brother compare to the emperor? important.

"What the imperial concubine said is exactly what the imperial concubine said. The concubines have just arrived. I heard that elder brother is falling asleep, and concubine Jing's younger sister is also falling asleep from exhaustion. We are so noisy that we may wake up the little elder brother..."

In the room, Xiu Yu sneered and listened to the concubine's excuses.What just arrived, it's been a long time, she clearly 'saw' their disappointed and annoyed expressions after learning that she gave birth safely.When the people from the harem first arrived, her little elder brother was sound asleep. These women didn't even glance at each other, but they chatted in the main hall and began to talk in a bureaucratic way. The noise was unusual. It can be seen that they were enough to make trouble for her. Just want to wait for Kangxi to come.

"Your Majesty?" Yun Tang and the others looked displeased.

"Okay, follow the grandma and take the little brother out to show the emperor." Xiu Yu handed the child to the grandma, looking at the white and fat son, her heart softened.

"Little elder brother, please greet the emperor, the imperial concubine, and all the ladies." The nurse hugged the little elder brother and squatted down timidly.

"Hurry up, hug me and show the emperor." The imperial concubine's loving and joyful face made people feel that she was really happy that Concubine Jing had given birth to a baby brother.

I saw that the little elder brother in the nanny's arms was white and fat, not red and wrinkled like ordinary newborn babies, and the baby didn't look like a newborn when it was a little older.

"Oh, look, Your Majesty, this little elder brother is so fat and white that he doesn't look like he was just born. He looks like he has been born for a few days at first glance. It can be seen that this little guy is living very well in his mother's belly. , look how handsome this little girl is." The imperial concubine had a happy smile on her face, but she said some ambiguous words in her mouth.

Not to mention that all the concubines in the hall suddenly looked at the imperial concubine with beautiful eyes, even the smile on Kangxi's face turned cold when he saw the little elder brother.

What does the imperial concubine mean by this? This is suspecting that this little elder brother is not Concubine Jing's own, and that Concubine Jing is stealing dragons and turning phoenixes.Concubine Jing has two sons and two daughters, so is there any need to do something?Besides, Concubine Jing's stomach is real, if it's fake in front of everyone, how can she hide it from them.

At this time, they didn't know that there would be a fake pregnancy in the future, and they would hide it from them.

Yuntang on the side abruptly followed and kowtowed: "Your maidservant is overstepping, please be careful, the imperial concubine, the concubine, the little elder brother was born in October of the maidservant's pregnancy, it is indeed just born by the maidservant's maiden, and the empress is pregnant in October. The pulse case of the Taiyuan Hospital is the evidence, and the concubine mother dispatched by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the imperial physician of the Taiyuan Hospital, and the family members of Jingren Palace testified for the birth of the empress." After speaking, he kowtowed to Kangxi to plead guilty

"Your Majesty, I beg the emperor to give you the death penalty for your servant's transgression. Once you ask your majesty to believe in your maidservant's innocence."

The imperial concubine's face turned pale in an instant, and she slid and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, forgive me, this concubine made a slip of the tongue in a moment of agitation, and this concubine never doubted the intentions of Concubine Jing and little elder brother." She didn't know what was going on with herself, As soon as he saw Concubine Jing's little elder brother, he couldn't suppress the jealousy in his heart, and he couldn't help but say what was in his heart.

"Yuntang, the following crimes will be punished twenty times." Kangxi didn't look at the imperial concubine, but ordered Yuntang to be punished first.However, twenty sticks can be regarded as a kindness, so Yuntang's matter is over.

"My servant thanked the emperor for his grace." Joy flashed across Yuntang's face, the emperor wanted to protect the empress.

As long as it can protect the innocence of the empress, twenty sticks are nothing, it is just a pain, and the good ointment given by the empress will soon be cured, just like when Yun Kui was scolded by the stick, the medicine given by the empress is only a few The day will be fine.

"Loyal to protect the Lord, reward 50 taels of silver."

"Thank you for the reward, Your Majesty." Yuntang was overjoyed, not because of the reward but because the emperor believed in his mother, the emperor disgraced the imperial concubine's face.

Yuntang had no idea that Kangxi had never doubted that the little elder brother was not Concubine Jing's own, not to mention that he saw and felt the baby's fetal movement when Jing was pregnant. Some of the imperial physicians who gave Concubine Jing's confinement and the midwives who delivered the babies were arranged by him. In the end, Jingren Palace has always been his key surveillance target. If there was such a thing, the secret guard would have reported it to him long ago.

The imperial concubine's words were not only doubting Concubine Jing, but also doubting him, doubting his ability as an emperor, but how could an emperor be doubted, how could he accept being doubted by his own concubines.Therefore, he was angry with the imperial concubine Kangxi.

Yuntang was taken down by the eunuch to receive the punishment, and Kangxi turned his eyes to the imperial concubine: "Your imperial concubine, as the highest-ranking concubine in the harem, you know that your words and deeds affect the stability and peace of the harem. Be cautious."

As the concubine with the highest status in the harem, the emperor is reminding her that she is not yet the master of the harem; even the concubine of the imperial concubine is just a concubine, and she may be relegated if she is not careful, even if she is a concubine. The emperor's cousin.

"The emperor appeases his anger, the emperor forgives his sins, and the concubine has no intentions."

"I see that you are too tired. This month, I will take a good rest in the palace. I will let Concubine Wen and the other three take over the palace affairs for now."

"The concubine receives the order!" The third concubine hurriedly got up to receive the order, as if she was afraid that Kangxi would regret it later.This trip to Jingren Palace was really worth it, I just wanted to meet the emperor, but I didn't expect to get such a good thing as the palace power.

The imperial concubine was reprimanded and the imperial concubine's power was given away, but the joy of Kangxi's new son was also disturbed.Because Xiu Yu was not allowed to meet Kangxi during the confinement period just after giving birth, Kangxi just comforted her a few words through the screen, advised her not to worry too much about confinement, and left with a generous reward.

Looking at the background of Kangxi's departure through the screen, and listening to Kangxi's words just now, Xiu Yu knew that Kangxi would definitely compensate her for the grievances she suffered today.

The men in Aiqingjueluo's family are all the same. They love to live and hate to die.

Concubine Jing's addition of a younger brother is a great event, but this event is only for Xiu Yu, for Kangxi, for Guo Luoluo, not for everyone It’s all a happy event, at least not for the other concubines in the harem, not for the concubines’ natal family, not for the prince, not even for the Hesheli family, but it makes them worry thing.It is also not a happy event for another very important person in the palace, that is the empress dowager.

Cining Palace

The Empress Dowager was paying respects to the Buddha, and Su Ma Lagu did not enter the Buddhist hall but waited outside the Buddhist hall.Thinking of the news she just received, Aunt Su Mala was very tangled in her heart. She didn't know what Ge Ge would think if she told this to Ge Ge.

It is a happy event for a new elder brother to be added to the harem, but this elder brother's biological mother happens to be Concubine Jing, so this is not considered a happy event.

Concubine Jing has been favored ever since she gave birth to her fourth elder brother as a concubine, and even gave birth to two elder brothers one after another. Now Concubine Jing has three elder brothers and two princesses under her knees, which is considered the only one in the harem.

But it is precisely because of this that her family is afraid!
Concubine Jing really didn't know whether this little brother was a blessing or a curse. Concubine Jing was able to keep the two previous brothers and two princesses, and I hope she can keep this new little brother this time.

"Su Ma, what are you thinking about so preoccupied that you didn't even notice when Ai's family came out."

The empress dowager stared at Su Ma with the Buddhist beads in her hands. The empress dowager's eyes seemed to have a magical ability. No one could escape her eyes when she looked at people like this.

"Garge."

"Well, what happened?" The Empress Dowager saw through Aunt Su Mala's thoughts at a glance.

In this world, if there is one person who knows the Empress Dowager best, that person must be Su Ma Lagu; and the person who knows Su Ma La Gu best is the Empress Dowager.The two masters and servants have been together day and night for nearly 70 years. No one can get along longer than them.

The Empress Dowager is getting old, and the old people feel less. The Empress Dowager wakes up early in the morning to worship the Buddha in the Buddhist hall. Aunt Su Mala also ordered the palace people not to disturb the Empress Dowager to worship the Buddha, so the Empress Dowager does not know that Concubine Jing has added a new child news.

"I can't tell you what's embarrassing you. Tell me, and I'll solve it for you." The Empress Dowager had a kind smile on her face.

She is extremely lenient to Su Mala, the empress dowager. After all, Su Mala has been with her for nearly 70 years. She was with her when she was a child, and she has shared hardships and adversities.

Aunt Su Mala paused before she spoke: "Gege, Concubine Jing of Jingren Palace has a new elder brother."

The little smile on the Empress Dowager's face disappeared in the cold, but she quickly returned to gentleness. "She is a lucky one, and now she is the only one in the harem. Of course, why didn't Chu Ai's family think of Concubine Jing?" She is blessed, it is really rare for her to be so blessed, it is not something that ordinary people can have."

The Empress Dowager’s voice was calm without any ups and downs, as if she was telling Aunt Su Mala that today’s weather is fine, but Aunt Su Mala lowered her head when the Empress Dowager said this, and restrained everything she couldn’t bear .

"It's a great joy to have a new elder brother in the palace. The Ai family wants to reward Concubine Jing well. Su Ma, go to the private treasury of the Ai family to pick some good things and send them to Concubine Jing. She has worked hard for the royal family." !"

"Yes, servant girl, this is to arrange."

The Empress Dowager glanced at the background where Aunt Su Ma was leaving with clenched fists, and shook her head, Su Ma was still too soft-hearted.

Since the day when the little brother was born, he was quarreled by the concubines once, and the little brother washed Sanjingren Palace for another bustling time, and then Xiuyu closed the palace for confinement, except for Kangxi who came to see the little brother and Xiuyu twice Apart from talking, the other concubines, Xiu Yu, didn't even see each other, so they could finally sit quietly for a month's confinement.

A month has passed in a blink of an eye, and now it is really the end of the twelfth lunar month. The little guy's full moon is on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month. It will be almost the Chinese New Year.Kangxi originally wanted to make a big deal to compensate Xiu Yu's mother and son, but Xiu Yu pushed it away on the grounds that it was not appropriate to hold a big banquet during the upcoming Chinese New Year, so the little elder brother's full moon was only held in Jingren Palace, except for the concubines in the harem. Xiu Yu's family members were also present.
