CHAPTER 40

Since Qianlong saw the two fifth and sixth elder brothers, who were twin brothers, but looked the size of other full-term babies, he knew that Xiao Yan must have been guilty of a lot of sin in this birth. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Therefore, after Qianlong saw his two newborn baby sons, he personally went to visit Xiao Yan, who had just given birth.
However, no matter how much you guess in your heart, it is not as good as what you see with your own eyes. When Qianlong saw Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan had already washed the blood stains on her body under the service of Qiulan and Qiuyue, and changed into a set of clean light pink bedclothes. Because the child had been born safely, and the strength was exhausted when Shicai gave birth, as soon as the tight strings were loosened at this time, Xiao Yan felt exhausted, closed her eyes tiredly, and fell asleep groggily. However, the pale little face and the scarred lips that were tragically ravaged still showed the hardships that Xiao Yan had endured just now.
Qianlong saw Xiao Yan's miserable appearance, his heart suddenly swelled with a burst of distress, and carefully asked the midwife about Xiao Yan's situation, after learning that because the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother are not small, and Xiao Yan's body has not yet grown, so there is a slight tear in the birth canal at the time of production, Qianlong is even more distressed about Xiao Yan.
So, before Xiao Yan woke up, Qianlong gave many jewelry, silk and satin, and rare antiques and other objects to please the beauties.
Because Qianlong got the long-awaited fifth elder brother and sixth elder brother, so when he was in the morning today, the corners of his mouth have been slightly upturned, with a faint smile, and there is obvious joy between his eyebrows.
Although the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother are neither the eldest son nor the son-in-law, and their biological mother's family background is extremely mediocre, however, they are the only two little elder brothers who were officially given the name by the emperor as soon as they were born.
You must know that even if the queen Fucha gave birth to Prince Duanhui for the emperor, he was only named when he washed the third, and in the past few months, Jia Concubine Niangniang gave birth to the fourth elder brother for the emperor after several twists and turns, and it was enough to raise it for 100 days before he was officially named by the emperor.
The civil and military ministers and clan relatives who can participate in Qianlong's daily court meeting naturally have some twists and turns in their hearts, and if they are stupid, they will not be able to reach this step. As a result, everyone recorded Qianlong's joyful appearance in their hearts, and paid more attention to the fifth and sixth elder brothers, who had just been born less than a day ago.
Xiao Guiren gave birth to twin little brothers with very different appearances for the emperor, and the emperor was happy, and immediately gave the two little brothers Yongqi and Yongying, and the preface teeth were the fifth and sixth elder brothers, which were recorded in the genealogy jade, and the news that Xiao Guiren, the biological mother of the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother, was a concubine, quickly spread throughout the six palaces of the east and west like wings.
In Cining Palace, the Queen Mother Niu Hulu fiddled with the jasper ring on her finger and said with a light smile: "The mourning family saw that girl for the first time at the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, and they saw that she was a little blessed. Now it seems that it is really good. ”
In the Changchun Palace, Queen Fucha Ningxiu sat at the table with a gloomy expression, looking at the haggard face in the dressing mirror, and then thinking of Xiao Yan and the fifth and sixth elder brothers, who are now favored by the emperor, she couldn't help but hate the root of her teeth, and her dignified and beautiful face was a little distorted.
Seeing that her master was in an unhappy mood, Zi Yan hurriedly soaked the master's favorite West Lake Longjing and put it in the master's hand, and persuaded her softly: "The queen mother drinks tea to dissipate her anger, it's not worth being angry for such a woman who serves people in Israel." ”
Ning Xiu glanced at Zi Yan and said lightly: "Xiao is a slut, this palace will have to clean her up sooner or later." However, her belly is very competitive, and she has the ability to give birth to two little brothers for the emperor at one time, but it also happens to be a pair of twins with very different appearances, which is really envious and jealous. The palace heard that the emperor was extremely fond of the fifth and sixth elder brothers, and even ignored the rule of holding grandchildren and not children, and personally hugged the newborn fifth and sixth elder brothers...... Hmph, as soon as he was born, he was given a name, a preface, and recorded in the genealogy jade, and even Yonglian of the palace did not have such a blessing! It's just a little brother from a lowly Han girl, and the emperor spoils them like this, and he is not afraid of losing their lifespan! ”
I don't know what I thought, Ning Xiu's eyes full of hatred flashed with a touch of fierceness quickly, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, and a very shallow laugh line was raised. It's just that this shallow smile doesn't have any warmth, and even Zi Yan was shocked when she saw it, and she felt shuddering.
After hearing the news that Xiao Yan gave birth to the fifth and sixth elder brothers for the emperor, Wulanala Jingxian, the concubine in Yonghe Palace, reached out and touched her flat lower abdomen, with a look of envy in her eyes. I secretly wondered why Xiao Yan's belly was so angry, and I wondered in my heart that Xiao Yan was fortunate enough to give birth to twin little brothers with different appearances for the emperor, whether it was because of the special physique inherited by the family, or enviable good luck, or what kind of superior tonic prescription?
Jing Xian pondered for a while, and decided to first ask her family to help check the situation of Shu Concubine's mother's family, if it was confirmed that the reason why Shu Concubine was able to give birth to twin little brothers with very different appearances was really the latter, then she should also try to get this rare recipe to make up for her body.
Even if you can't be as lucky as Concubine Shu to give birth to two twin little brothers with different looks for the emperor at one time, it is also an excellent thing to be able to give birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses. After all, in the harem of the Qing Dynasty, there has never been such an auspicious rui! Even if there is only a pair of twin princesses in the end, it is a happy event to be celebrated. With his daughter in the palace, he has hope for his future life.
After Gao Fang, the noble concubine of Chengqian Palace, got the news, a trace of hatred flashed in her bloodshot eyes, and after smashing a few things casually, she gradually calmed down. Gao Fang muttered: "The Xiao family is just a slut who charms the lord, where is he worthy of being the biological mother of the fifth and sixth elder brothers?" Why don't you let Hongu help you? When the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother become the sons of Bengong, Bengong will definitely treat them well, so that they can only remember that Bengong is their mother, even if they meet you opposite, they will not know who you are! Isn't that interesting? ”
After Jin Jia Wanhua, the concubine of Zhongcui Palace, heard the news of Xiao Yan's childbirth, she hugged the fourth elder brother Yonghui and cried for a long time, which made Yonghui, who loves to laugh on weekdays, also cry and blushed, and finally even fell asleep crying. Since it was only a few months later, Wanhua naturally compared Xiao Yan, who gave birth to a little brother for the emperor with her. However, the results of the comparison made Wanhua even more indignant.
Obviously, she suffered a lot and gave birth to the fourth elder brother for the emperor after nine deaths, however, the emperor not only did not give her a promotion, but also did not like the fourth elder brother she came out of, not only did she never come to Zhongcui Palace to visit the fourth elder brother, let alone hug the fourth elder brother in person. It wasn't until the fourth elder brother was 100 days old that he gave the fourth elder brother a name and renewed his teeth.
However, Xiao Guiren not only successfully gave birth to two twin brothers with different appearances, the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother, not only his mother was expensive by virtue of his son, and was named a concubine by the emperor, but also got the enviable Shuzi as the title, and it happened that the emperor was extremely fond of the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother, and even ignored the rules of holding grandchildren in the palace, personally hugged two little elder brothers, and gave two good names to the two little elder brothers just after they were born.
Compared with the two, between her and the concubine Xiao, it is clear who the emperor loves more.
The more Wanhua thought about it, the more unwilling she became, why did she also give birth to a little brother for the emperor, but the woman of the Xiao family could be promoted, and the fifth and sixth elder brothers born were loved by the emperor, and not only was she not promoted to the concubine, but the fourth elder brother born to her was not loved by the emperor. She wanted to take a good look at how long that woman in the Xiao family could be proud!
Not to mention how the other concubines in the harem were envious and jealous of Xiao Yan, they had no intention of participating in the various activities and banquets arranged in the palace for the begging festival, because they were thinking about the two newborn babies, so Xiao Yan woke up after only half an hour.
Qiulan and Qiuyue knew that Xiao Yan must be thinking about the two newborn little brothers, so they hurriedly ordered the two nurses who were responsible for taking care of the fifth and sixth elder brothers, Feng and Xu, to show the children to Xiao Yan.
As soon as Xiao Yan saw the two children, she liked it very much, even the fifth elder brother who looked very Xiao Qianlong, Xiao Yan felt extremely cute, and she didn't care about Shang Qiulan's reminder that she couldn't hold the child for too long in confinement, so as not to fall ill in the future, and she refused to let go when she took the two children into her arms.
Xu is because of the mother-son connection, the fifth elder brother and the sixth elder brother became extremely well-behaved when they arrived in Xiao Yan's arms, they all stared at their own mothers with big black and bright eyes, and stretched out their fleshy little hands to Xiao Yan, the cute and cute little appearance almost sweetened Xiao Yan's heart, and for the first time I felt that I was no longer alone in this time and space, and I also had my own relatives and bonds.
Xiao Yanzheng happily hugged her two newly baked white and tender buns, and listened to Qiulan and Qiuyue's congratulations: "Slave and maid, congratulations to Niangniang, giving birth to the fifth elder brother and sixth elder brother for the emperor." The one who looks like the emperor is the fifth elder brother, and the sixth elder brother who looks like a mother. The emperor has decreed that Jin Niangniang will be the concubine, and from now on, Niangniang will be the rightful lord of the first palace of Chuxiu Palace! ”
"The emperor likes the fifth and sixth elder brothers very much, not only personally hugged the two little elder brothers, but also personally gave the names of the two little elder brothers, and ordered the teeth."
Xiao Yan was slightly stunned, looking at Qiulan and Qiuyue with smiles on their faces, "The emperor has already given names to the two little elder brothers?" Which two names were given? ”
Qiulan claimed that she didn't dare to call her master by name, so she first confessed to Xiao Yan before she said the names given by Qianlong to the fifth and sixth elder brothers. "The generation of the two little elder brothers is the generation of the word 'Yong', and the emperor gave the two little elder brothers the word 'Qi' and the word 'Ying' as their names."
"Yongqi, Yongying?" Xiao Yan looked at the two cute buns lying on her lap in amazement, stared at the fifth elder brother who looked exactly like Qianlong, and muttered to herself: "You...... Is it Yongqi? "Lasagna tears flowed in my heart.
Damn, I always think of the second and fifth elder brother who is not even the least loyal and filial piety in addition to being infatuated!
Xiao Yan had never felt that her name was so problematic as she was now, and even secretly wondered if she should change her name, otherwise...... I always feel weird......
However, Xiao Yan was quickly attracted by another urgent question, and there was no extra energy to dwell on the name of the fifth elder brother. Because, Xiao Yan is sad to ...... Milk is up.
Xiao Yan only felt that her breasts had swelled a little bigger than before giving birth, and even because of the swelling * milk was slightly hard, even if she touched it lightly, it hurt so much that she inhaled.
Xiao Yan originally thought that solving this problem was actually very simple, just let the two children suck it and feed them a meal of breast milk, but she never thought that her wish would be dissuaded by Qiulan and Qiuyue.
"Niangniang's status is precious, where do you need Niangniang to feed the two little brothers herself? Besides, the emperor has arranged four nurses for each of the fifth and sixth elder brothers to take care of them, and they will not be hungry for the two little brothers. ”
If the mother feels uncomfortable, the slave will go and get some hot water for the mother to warm up. After a while, the slave and maid will go to the hospital to get a pair of milk medicine for the mother, and the mother will not be so uncomfortable after taking it. ”
Xiao Yan was dumbfounded when she heard this, and suddenly remembered that the big families in the Qing Dynasty did not need their wives to feed their children personally, and the concubines and concubines in the palace did not have to breastfeed their children in person. On the one hand, it can help the ladies to recover their bodies as soon as possible and avoid the deformation and sagging of the breasts, and on the other hand, it can also help them sleep and rest, so as to avoid the wives being too tired to take care of the baby at night. But the problem is, she doesn't care about the deformation of her breasts due to feeding her children herself, she wants to feed her two sons by herself!
However, no matter how she communicated with Qiulan and Qiuyue, and even put on the posture and majesty of the first house, she failed to persuade Qiulan and Qiuyue to agree to her feeding the child herself. Although Qiulan and Qiuyue knelt on the ground respectfully, begging her not to go her own way and violate the palace rules and make the emperor dissatisfied, Xiao Yan knew that in Qiulan and Qiuyue's hearts, they had never regarded her as their master. The master of the two of them has always been only Qianlong.
When Xiao Yan was in a stalemate with Qiulan and Qiuyue, Qianlong was thinking about Xiao Yan and the two little brothers, so he rushed back to Chuxiu Palace to visit Xiao Yan's mother and son just after the next dynasty.
As soon as Qianlong walked into the body and hall, he saw Xiao Yan sitting on the bed with her eyebrows frowned, pursing her mouth, looking unhappy, while Qiulan and Qiuyue knelt on the ground, and the two nurses stood aside with embarrassed expressions, Yongqi and Yongying, the two little brothers, were lying side by side in Xiao Yan's arms, looking contented and comfortable.
When everyone saw Qianlong arrive, they hurriedly saluted Qianlong, but as soon as Xiao Yan moved, Qianlong pressed his shoulder, and said with a light smile: "You are not out of confinement yet, and you are still holding two little brothers in your arms, what are you doing with so many courtesies to ask me for peace?" After thinking about it, he added, "Before you leave the confinement period, I grant you no need to bow to me, and all false gifts are waived." ”
Xiao Yan was worried about wanting to feed the two children by herself, so after thanking Qianlong for his grace with gratitude, she took the initiative to mention this matter to Qianlong.
Qianlong naturally knew the many benefits of breastfeeding, however, it did not mean that Qianlong wanted Xiao Yan to feed the two little brothers personally. Qianlong glanced at Xiao Yan's bulging chest, a faint light flashed in his deep phoenix eyes, and said with a light smile: "Not long after the fifth and sixth elder brothers were born, I have already ordered the nurse to breastfeed the two little elder brothers, and the two children should not be hungry at this time." ”
Qianlong said that, he waved his hand and ordered the two nurses to hold the fifth and sixth elder brothers down to rest, "Look, the two little ones are yawning, let the nurse coax the children to sleep for a while, and then let the nurse bring them over to play with you when they wake up." Then he waved his hand to Qiulan and Qiuyue, and ordered the two to retreat for the time being.
Xiao Yan saw that the two cute little buns that she had tossed hard for most of the day before they were taken away by Qianlong's order, she was immediately unhappy, however, she couldn't lose her temper with Qianlong, so she could only look at Qianlong pitifully with aggrieved little eyes, and pleaded: "Your Majesty, the concubine's breasts are really uncomfortable, you can let the concubine feed the little brother herself!" Otherwise, the concubine is really in pain and can't hold on! ”
How could Qianlong not see Xiao Yan's careful thoughts, a woman who could not even hold back a cry and cry out for pain after giving birth to a child, could not bear the pain of milk engorgement? However, thinking of the experience that Xiao Yan may have had similar to his, Qianlong raised up to tease and test her mind again.
Qianlong smiled and sat sideways beside the bed, took Xiao Yan into his arms, and explained gently: "You are now my concubine, you only need to call yourself a concubine, and you don't need to call yourself a concubine like before." Shuzi is a title that I have chosen by thousands of people, does Yan'er like it? ”
Xiao Yan didn't have the heart to listen to Qianlong explain the origin of the title to her at this time, and secretly slandered Qianlong in her heart for her jumping thinking that was different from ordinary people, and then when she was about to implore Qianlong to agree to feed her two children by herself, her chest suddenly hurt, and when she looked down, she just saw Qianlong's wide palm covering her towering chest, kneading it gently and ambiguously.
Xiao Yan shrank and wanted to avoid Qianlong's big hand, and exclaimed, "The emperor doesn't want it, concubine...... The concubine's body hurts! ”
Qianlong smiled slightly, and for the time being, he let go of his palm as Xiao Yan wished, but picked up the buckle at the collar of Xiao Yan's bed with his backhand, lowered his head and kissed it, and sucked it hard.
Xiao Yan was shy and annoyed again, stretched out her slender arm against Qianlong's shoulder and kept refusing, "Your Majesty, don't be like this!" ”
Qianlong clasped Xiao Yan's arm with one hand, and muttered while sucking Yun in his mouth: "Isn't Yan'er suffering unbearable chest pain because of her increased milk?" I'll help you suck it in, and you'll be comfortable. ”
Xiao Yan was extremely depressed, and before she could think about it, she retorted: "However, the concubine's breast milk is to be kept for the two little elder brothers!" Mother's colostrum is the best tonic for children! How can the emperor drink with the two little brothers? ”
Qianlong indifferently sucked a big gulp of sweet milk into his mouth, and his powerful palm pressed slightly, holding the woman who was constantly struggling in his arms, until he sucked up all the milk in his two crisp* breasts, then raised his head and said to Xiao Yan, who was angry with him: "Yan'er belongs to me from head to toe. Of course, this also includes the milk of the swallows. ”
Qianlong said, stroking the two cherries on Xiao Yan's chest that had been sucked by him to a little red and swollen, and said domineeringly: "Yan'er's place can only be touched by me. Even the fifth and sixth elder brothers, no. As for the colostrum that you said is excellent for babies, I will find suitable nurses for the two little brothers, and you don't have to feed them yourself. ”
Xiao Yan was so angry that she trembled all over, and she really wanted to slap Qianlong's extremely ambiguous and handsome face, but because of Qianlong's identity, she didn't dare to make a move on Qianlong.
Xiao Yan's heart was racing, and she pleaded softly: "Your Majesty, the concubine's mother once left a handwritten letter to the concubine before she died, and the letter once mentioned that the happiest thing in her life was to feed the concubine herself. It's a pity that Eniang's health is not good, and she only fed the concubine for a few days before returning to milk, which has always been regretful. He also instructed the concubine to feed the children personally when she got married and had children in the future, so as to enjoy this precious family happiness. The concubine knew that she should obey the emperor's orders, but she really couldn't bear to ignore filial piety and disobey Eniang's last wish before she died. I don't know if the emperor can be extra kind and allow the concubine to feed the two little brothers by herself for a period of time. ”
Qianlong narrowed his eyes slightly, secretly thinking in his heart that this girl was really smart, and even took out the last wish of her deceased mother, the little girl said so earnestly, if he didn't allow her to feed the fifth and sixth elder brothers in person for a while, it would inevitably seem too unkind, I am afraid it would hurt the little girl's heart, so it would not be beautiful.
Qianlong was silent for a moment, thoughtfully helped Xiao Yan gather the clothes on his chest, lowered his head and kissed Xiao Yan's fair cheek, and chuckled in a low voice: "Since Yan'er said so, I am not a person who does not understand people. If I want you to allow you to feed the fifth and sixth elder brothers personally for a while, it is not impossible. But how are you going to repay me? ”
Xiao Yan was stunned and asked puzzledly: "The emperor is rich in the world, and everything in the concubine is given by the emperor, what can the concubine use to repay the emperor?" ”
Qianlong smiled slightly: "In this way, it depends on Yan'er's sincerity." ”
