Ten days after Princess Changning surrendered, Li Hui saw her returning to the palace in Anren Palace. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info She combed her lily bun, and the corners of her lips smiled slightly, seemingly no different from the past, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows became more and more resolute. Maybe it was because the marriage of King Xin'an in his previous life was too unsuccessful, or maybe because he had seen the appearance of his brother and sister-in-law Qin Se and Ming, so he felt very strange. In his eyes, as an elder brother, this is definitely not the look that a bride who has been married for a few days can have. In just these ten days, what stupid thing did Yan Zhan - or the Yan family do?!

However, the two cousins didn't even have time to say a few more words, so they heard that the palace people hurriedly came in to report that Hu Cairen was going to give birth to a little prince. Queen Du was slightly surprised, and looked at her beloved daughter with a smile: "Yue Niang, it seems that today should be more joyful." You are very close to this child. ”

Princess Changning raised her eyebrows slightly: "It's nothing to have a relationship with your son, it's more important to have a relationship with your mother." The mother and daughter looked at each other, as if they exchanged a thousand words in an instant. There was no one else present except Yan Zhan, but Princess Changning was still reluctant to speak clearly in front of the concubine.

Yan Zhan was a smart man, and soon found an excuse to get up and invite Li Hui to go to the Liangyi Hall to meet the saint. And Li Hui found that when he looked at Princess Changning, there seemed to be a slight apology in his eyes. Suddenly, the king of Xin'an County thought a lot, and finally decided: In the past ten days, something must have happened in the princess's mansion! Of course, what Yan Zhan said is not credible, he must personally ask Princess Changning, and then take the initiative to make decisions for his sister!

Even if her sister is the eldest princess who will never tolerate her being wronged, it doesn't mean that she doesn't need such protection. As an elder brother, if you can't stand up at such a time, what else can you do for your sister?!

On this day, almost everyone's attention in the Taiji Palace shifted from Princess Changning, who returned to the palace, to Hu Cairen. Although when Li Hui accompanied him, he did not feel that the sage attached great importance to the upcoming prince or princess, but was very concerned about how his daughter and son-in-law were getting married. But there will always be people who will misinterpret his joy at this time as looking forward to the birth of a little prince.

Of course, in fact, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty felt that the sage had long passed the age of establishment, but he only had two heirs, the King of Qi and the King of Shu, and his knees were too thin. What's more, these two princes have their own flaws in temperament, and even after the careful teaching of the prince, they have not changed much, and at the same time, they are extremely unlikable to the saints. At this time, perhaps the ministers are more than the saints who expect the Taiji Palace to usher in a little prince with the qualifications to enter the East Palace.

That night, Hu Cairen lived up to expectations and gave birth to three princes

。 Although the little prince did not seem to be very strong, he cried loudly. Not long after, under the heavy snow, Queen Du and Princess Changning, who were going to visit Hu Cairen and the third prince on foot, heard the cry from the palace not far away, and couldn't help but look at each other again.

"A-Niang, can't you wait a few more years? Maybe next year and the year after that, A-Niang will be able to give birth to A-Di? Hu now seems to have served A-Niang, but he may not be willing to sacrifice her children. Moreover, Saburo is too young, if it is in case...... Isn't it in vain to make Grandpa Niang and Grandpa sad? Or even give birth to gaps? Princess Changning frowned worriedly, "Even if you want to raise him, it's not too late to stay until you are two or three years old!" There were so many children who died at a young age that she had to think about Empress Du's reputation and situation.

"In front of your grandfather, you must not talk such nonsense." Empress Du sighed lightly, "He has been looking forward to San Lang for so many years, if ...... I'm afraid I can't stand it. As for when Saburo asked me to raise it, it was up to the sage to decide. Of course, I also think that he should stay by Hu Cairen's side for a while...... "It's just that she knows the saint better than anyone else, and the saint needs a prince too much—since he believes that only she can be brought up well, he will never let the child change his temperament with Hu Cairen."

The next day, the sage Long Xin Dayue officially announced at the court meeting that San Lang would be handed over to Queen Du to raise. Naturally, the ministers had no objections, compared to an unknown low-level concubine, of course, they also felt that Empress Du, who was born in the Jingzhao Du clan, could raise the future prince to be of outstanding character. Of course, in order to compensate Hu Cairen, the sage also discussed with Queen Du and asked her to be promoted by two grades in a row and named Jieyu. And Pei Meiren, who gave birth to a princess two months ago, was also named Jieyu.

Queen Du thought that the newly promoted Hu Jieyu would definitely be resistant to this matter, so before the news of raising the third prince spread, she specially visited her every day to get as close to her as possible, and she would not completely break up in the future.

Unexpectedly, when she went to visit one of them, Hu Jieyu actually held her hand with tears in her eyes: "The concubine believes that Her Royal Highness the Queen will be able to raise San Lang to be extraordinarily outstanding." Only by keeping it by the side of Her Royal Highness the Queen can Saburo grow up safely. If the concubine raised him...... I can't even protect him......"

Empress Du was silent for a moment, and said softly: "You are still in the middle of the month, you can't think nonsense." Saburo will be raised by your side for a while, and after a few months, he will be taken to Anren Palace. You always kiss mother and son, let you be separated now, I really can't bear it. As for the rest, don't worry, I'll clean up the people around you. The palace rules are strict, and others don't dare to mess around. ”

After Hu Jieyu hesitated for a moment, she happily agreed, and asked the maid to bring the third prince over to Queen Du. Empress Du looked at her with a smile, hugged the sleeping third prince, and left.

However, when she returned to Anren Palace, she said to the oncoming Shang Palace: "Check carefully, who has visited Hu Jieyu recently, and actually revealed this matter to her." ”

Although the sage mentioned this matter in the previous court, he did not say it in the harem. It's just that the New Year is approaching, and Hu Jieyu is in the middle of the month, if there is any turmoil because of this incident, it is really a bit of a bad scenery and an unlucky omen. Therefore, both the emperor and the queen planned to make the matter public again after the year, and appeased Hu Jieyu. Who knows, this Hu Jieyu didn't know what rumors she had heard, and took the initiative to show her loyalty!

Empress Du's control of Taiji Palace was naturally extraordinary, and she received a report from the palace people not long ago - Hu Jieyu had just met Concubine Yan the day before. After hearing the words "Concubine Yan", Rao is gentle and kind like Queen Du on weekdays, and it is inevitable that her expression will be cold at this time. It is true that Concubine Yan took the initiative to persuade Hu Jieyu to sacrifice her son, and the result was indeed beneficial to her. However, this self-assertive behavior is by no means for her benefit!

If Concubine Ren Yan acted so wantonly, not only would the Yan family be affected, but even their mother and daughter would inevitably be implicated! is a good Yan family, a good Yan concubine, she has married her most beloved daughter to them as they wished. Could it be that they thought that the Yan family would be able to get past her, Yue Niang, and do whatever they wanted? !

On this night, everyone who had not met privately for some time finally gathered at the newly built Xin'an County Palace. They sat around the secret room and talked about the waves that the newborn Three Princes would bring to the imperial court and the Taiji Palace

。 Almost everyone's face was full of solemnity.

"Now, there is no change in the adoption of the three princes by my uncle. Although this move can indeed strengthen the position of the middle palace, it is also full of crises. Li Hui said, "Concubine Yang Xian, Concubine Yuan Shu, Yang Jieyu and others will never sit idly by and watch the three princes become the concubines of the Middle Palace and enter the East Palace in the future." "There is no one who wants to give birth to a child in the womb more than Concubine Yuan Shu, but God does not fulfill her, and I don't know what she will do in the future. And Concubine Yang Xian, who has always relied on King Qi is the eldest son, will definitely make a desperate bet in order to keep her position-

"I think there are still a few months of quiet days left. If it were a few months later that Yang Jieyu also gave birth to four princes, the situation would be violently turbulent. "After all, the Hongnong County Mansion has been waiting for this day for a long time. If it is for the fourth prince to become the prince of the East Palace, he will ...... "It is more difficult to plan for the queen's position, but if you want to let a baby die, there are many means."

Princess Changning frowned: "Hu Jieyu is by no means easy to match. I always felt that she could offer Saburo so simply, and she couldn't say that she had any plans...... However, if you think about it carefully, after giving birth to San Lang, the only person she can rely on is A-Niang. Could it be that she made up her mind to wait for San Lang to become the crown prince, and then quietly recognize him in private-"All the concubines know that Queen Du is weak, and it is impossible to say that this Hu Jieyu wants to take advantage of the situation to let Queen Du carry the third prince into the East Palace first, and then when Queen Du can't hold on, she will recognize the child back and reap the benefits of the fisherman!"

If the ruthless person really wants to take the child, he will definitely end her life completely when Hu Jieyu gives birth to the third prince, and there will be no worries about the future. However, Queen Du had no intention of adopting this child at all, nor did she intend to arouse suspicion and rumors inside and outside the Taiji Palace. Now, there is only one step at a time.

"If it weren't for Concubine Yan's many mouths, Her Royal Highness the Queen would definitely not fall into a passive situation." Cheng Qingdao, unable to hide his sneer, "What does she want to do?" is so self-righteous, I can't say that I have any ideas for that Hu Jieyu in private. She is the only concubine who walks out all day long, and she can't sit still in the other palace. Also in the other palace, the princess was almost silent, and Concubine Yang was also immersed in eating fasting and reciting Buddha after the eldest princess of Anxing was safe.

......Hearing this, Li Hui couldn't help but glance at Princess Changning, "The Yan family is embarrassed for you?" ”

"Why did Brother say this?" Princess Changning laughed, "How can the Yan family have such ability?" ”

"That's annoying you." Li Hui said firmly, "Yan Zhan should be regarded as a smart person, and he will definitely not annoy you easily." Could it be that this Concubine Yan is again? ”

"......" Princess Changning's eyes moved, and her gaze swept over him and Wang Zixian, "It's just a fool who tries to point fingers at me based on his seniority." I have warned her not to get involved in the palace again. It seems that she did not take what I said to heart at all. And at that time, she realized that the stupidity of the Yan family was definitely not Concubine Yan alone. Cheng Guogong's ears are too soft, Yan Zhan and other grandchildren are outstanding, and what they say is not as good as a word about Concubine Yan.

"If you don't control Concubine Yan, you can't say that there will be more variables." The prince said, looking at Cheng Qing, "I don't know what good ideas the horse has?" ”

Cheng Qing stroked the short mustache on his chin and snorted coldly at him: "This kind of selfish calculation will be handed over to me to deal with?" I'm still under house arrest, how can I have such power? ”

"The pony is very capable." The prince hooked his lips and smiled, "As for me, I'll go and explore the Yang family again." Xu was stimulated by Hu Jieyu's birth of the third prince, and Yang Shangshu actually wrote a post in person, inviting our family to go to the banquet after the New Year. Perhaps, during this time, he did not deliberately go toe-for-tat with Yang Qian again, so Yang Shijing thought that the relationship between them should be appropriate and softer?

"Brother, we want to go too." Wang Luoniang and Wang Xiangniang, who had been sitting on the other side of the listen, hurriedly answered. They were really curious about the rumored Yang family and more than a dozen young ladies of the Yang family.

"I won't leave you behind." The prince smiled.
