33. Chapter XXXIII
After Qianlong went down to the court, he first went to Zhongcui Palace to visit the newborn little brother, but saw many concubines in the harem who came to Zhongcui Palace to congratulate.
Qianlong saw that although this group of concubines all brought congratulatory gifts to the newborn little brother, they were wearing delicate and bright flag costumes, and the makeup on their faces was also carefully depicted and retouched, and their heads were surrounded by beads, especially the Qing nobles Lu Jinxin, the Yu nobles Curry Yete Zhilan, the Wan nobles Chen Menglei and the Liu nobles Liu Rongjia were the most outstanding.
Qianlong's eyes flashed slightly, and he knew in his heart that these women were obviously drunkards, and they were afraid that it was fake to come to congratulate Jia Concubine, hoping that taking this opportunity to attract his attention was the purpose of these women.
Qianlong didn't pay attention to these smiling concubines, and only said a few words to the queen Fucha Ningxiu and the concubine Wulanala Jingxian, and then ordered the palace people to take out the newborn little brother to show him.
The nurse hugged the little brother with a smile on her face and knelt in front of Qianlong, and kept saying some auspicious words to praise the little brother, Qianlong saw the little brother with a red monkey appearance, frowned and tried to recall for a long time, Ye never remembered the appearance of the fourth elder brother Yongcheng in infancy.
Qianlong, who is a member of the Senior Appearance Association, saw the unpleasant appearance of the little brother, and felt that the little brother did not look like himself, but looked like the concubine he didn't like very much, so he didn't like it in his heart, so he only glanced at the little brother a few times and waved his hand to the nurse to hug the little brother.
Empress Fucha Ningxiu and Concubine Wulanala Jingxian saw that Qianlong did not have a special preference for the little brother from Jia Concubine, and finally felt a little more comfortable in their hearts, but their faces were not obvious at all, and they both had a dignified and decent smile.
Concubine Su Jiarong Hui saw that Qianlong only glanced at the little elder brother and waved her hand to the nurse to hug the little elder brother, and she couldn't help but think of Qianlong's attitude towards the third elder brother Yongzhang who she gave birth to, and she couldn't help frowning slightly, and she didn't know what it was like in her heart. Rong Hui thought of Yonglian, the second elder brother who was posthumously named Prince Duanhui by Qianlong although he died young, and couldn't help but feel a sense of jealousy in his heart, feeling unfair and sad for these concubines who were not favored and valued by Qianlong.
Fucha Ningxiu looked at Qianlong's face, smiled and asked softly: "Concubine Jia suffered a lot when she gave birth, and she was born prematurely and had a difficult birth, so I feel scared when I think about it!" Fortunately, the emperor was gracious, and ordered the midwife and the imperial doctor to ensure that the mother and child were safe and sound. The whole staff emperor was blessed by the dragon, and the concubine and the little brother were safe. The concubine is also a little blessed to see the little brother, so she dared to ask the emperor to give the little brother a good name! ”
If this matter had been placed in his previous life, Qianlong would still have felt that the Fucha clan was virtuous and generous, but now Qianlong has long known that the Fucha clan has always been inconsistent and accustomed to doing these superficial skills, not only did he not appreciate it in his heart, but felt very disgusted.
Qianlong glanced at Ning Xiu and said lightly: "Little brother is still too young, let's wait until a hundred days are over." ”
The lowly concubines saw that Qianlong did not like the little brother very much, and they were a little gloating in their hearts, and their jealousy for the concubine was reduced a lot, and they all thought in their hearts that the concubine must be immature and would not please the emperor, so it would be that the newborn little brother could not get the emperor's love and attention. If he can be fortunate enough to be favored by the emperor and give birth to a little brother for the emperor, then the emperor will definitely treat his little brother several times better than the little brother born to Jia Concubine.
As a result, all the concubines who were eager to get Qianlong's holy face worked harder to attract Qianlong's attention, hoping to get the opportunity to accompany him in the Heart Cultivation Hall tonight. It's a pity that Qianlong was worried about Xiao Yan, who had morning sickness and never got better, so he only stayed in Zhongcui Palace for a while before driving to Chuxiu Palace to visit Xiao Yan, who was pregnant, which disappointed the concubines.
At this time, Xiao Yan's situation was indeed not very good. What she ate and vomited for several days made Xiao Yan feel weak, and her face became more and more pale.
Xiao Yan communicated with the system depressedly, "You, a system that claims to be invincible and tall in the universe, should be able to use huàn anti-emetic special medicine, right?" ”
The system hesitated for a moment, and explained awkwardly: "This system can only exchange oral pills and nutritional injections suitable for pregnant women to supplement nutrition here, and the ......points required are not much.
Xiao Yan glanced at Qiulan and Qiuyue, who were almost inseparable from her, thinking of their true identities and extraordinary skills, she couldn't help but helplessly hold her forehead, and suddenly understood the faint melancholy that hurts even if there is no egg. "Forget it then, ah! Do you want Qianlong to treat me like a monster who can jump around without eating or drinking? ”
Originally, Xiao Yan didn't have any disgust for Qianlong's move of inserting eyeliner next to her, but felt that this could make Qianlong feel more at ease with her, and at the same time, she could help her pass on some news she wanted Qianlong to know to Qianlong at the right time, which was also a double thing. However, now, Xiao Yan felt that it was really inconvenient to have two masters with extraordinary skills waiting by her side.
Just when Xiao Yan wanted to further communicate with the system about the solution to this matter, she saw Qianlong striding into the Body and Hall of Harmony, followed by a group of palace maids who were holding all kinds of delicate and delicious dishes.
Although these dishes were all light vegetarian dishes cooked by the imperial chef calmly, Xiao Yan still felt a tumbling in her stomach, and hurriedly covered her nose with a handkerchief, and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Qianlong ordered the palace people to set up the imperial meal, and then waved his hand to order the palace people to retreat temporarily, leaving only Qiulan and Qiuyue to wait on the side.
Xiao Yan was unwell and suppressed the vomiting in her stomach, so she didn't notice that she had forgotten to salute Qianlong. Qiulan wanted to step forward to remind Xiao Yan a few words, but seeing that Qianlong grabbed Xiao Yan's wrist without any concern, her sharp phoenix eyes carefully looked at Xiao Yan's face, and she couldn't help but tighten her sword eyebrows more and more, and said in a deep voice in displeasure: "I didn't eat anything since I saw that you had breakfast, and I was afraid that there would be nothing left in my stomach now." Wu Qian, a quack, is really a waste, he can't even cure a little morning sickness, and if he continues like this, I don't have to be judged by the right hospital of the Tai Hospital! ”
Seeing this, Qiulan retreated to a fat position with knowledge and interest. Even his own master doesn't mind whether Xiao Guiren salutes him according to the palace rules, if his slave is too talkative, he will be full!
Qianlong pinched Xiao Yan's arm again, and couldn't help but become more and more worried about the slender and skinny touch under his hand, "In the long run, this is still the case?" Not to mention that you are a pregnant woman, even a powerful man can't stand it! ”
Qianlong motioned to Qiulan to serve a small bowl of light and soft red bean and lotus seed porridge, and personally took it and tested the temperature, before sending a tablespoon of fine porridge to Xiao Yan's mouth, and said softly: "If you don't eat, your body will not be able to stand it." Yan'er, try again. The porridge that I specially ordered to be boiled in the imperial dining room only uses red beans and lotus seeds, and it does not have the sweetness that you felt sick to your stomach before. I think you should be able to eat it. ”
Xiao Yan still knows a little about her body, and she is not as optimistic as Qianlong. However, due to Qianlong's identity and prestige, even if Xiao Yan was unwilling to drink this bowl of porridge in her heart, she could only grit her teeth and try it according to Qianlong's wishes.
Xiao Yan frowned and forced herself to make a well-behaved and supple appearance, and ate the red bean and lotus seed porridge handed to her lips by Qianlong, and her heart was even more disgusted with Qianlong's identity and her current tragic situation. I don't know if it's because the love of a pregnant woman is extremely unstable, Xiao Yan actually felt that she couldn't suppress the boredom and frustration in her heart.
Xiao Yan tried hard to drink three or five mouthfuls of porridge, and then couldn't help but turn her back to Qianlong and vomit, and in the end, she still couldn't stop vomiting because she had nothing to vomit, a little cold sweat oozed from her white forehead, physiological tears overflowed in her clear and moist eyes, and the pear blossoms brought rain and panted slightly, and her fragile appearance was so pitiful.
Qianlong saw that Xiao Yan spit out the fine porridge he had just eaten, and when he thought back to Wu Qian's diagnosis, he only felt that his heart was like a knife. Could it be that he was really too anxious to make Xiao Yan pregnant when she was still young? Or is it that no matter how hard he tries, he is destined to not be able to keep the two little brothers in Xiao Yan's womb who never existed in the world in his previous life? So, even if he is lucky enough to be reborn, he is destined to be unable to change the trajectory of history? What should come will come, and what is destined to be lost will still be scattered and irretrievable?
Qianlong only felt that he was full of confusion and boredom and had nowhere to dispel, so he grabbed Xiao Yan's slender wrist and threatened without words: "If you can't eat like this again, after the little brother is born, I will hand him over to the queen to raise!" ”
Xiao Yan turned her head abruptly, looked at Qianlong in shock, only to feel a strong anger rushing to the top of her head, and even made her feel a little dizzy, the crystal clear phoenix eyes showed undisguised anger in front of Qianlong for the first time, and her slender body trembled slightly with anger, "You dare!" If you dare to leave my son in the care of another woman, I will not be finished with you!" ”
Qianlong also looked at Xiao Yan in shock, and was shocked by Xiao Yan's shocking rhetoric and didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
The system hid his face and burst into tears, and reminded weakly: "Master, even if you want to give up the task, you don't have to choose such a heroic death, right?" One corpse with three lives, it's too cruel! ”
The inexplicable anger just now came and went quickly, and Xiao Yan had gradually calmed down at this time. Xiao Yan didn't know why she said such outrageous words to Qianlong without thinking just now, she only felt that she had never been as angry or angry as she was just now since she was a child, and secretly said in her heart that the temper of a pregnant woman was really weird and uncontrollable!
But how should it end now? You can't continue to scold Qianlong fiercely, right? She still wants to live well with her two precious sons, but she doesn't want to die now! However, will Qianlong's scumbag's favorability towards her drop back to negative in the next time! I'm so tired, is there ......
