For most of the year, life in the harem is still very laid-back. Even the King of Han can't think about making waves in the harem all year round, disgusting the prince and grandson, isn't it? In fact, Xu Xun felt that Liu Jieyu was just his idle chess. Now that she knows the mind of King Han, the grandson will occasionally tell her some outside things, for example, some officials in the court have been staring at the prince with wide eyes, who is behind this, and now everyone can guess it.

At this point, the pressure on the grandson is much less, as soon as he is still young, he always follows the emperor closely, and there is no chance of supervising the country, so naturally he will not be faulty. Second, to be fair, Taisun does not have anything to fault with. Tall and heroic, he has been praised by the emperor many times, saying that he was born very similar to him, and his martial arts have been affirmed by the emperor. He won battles with the emperor when he went on expeditions, and when he was by the emperor's side, he had to often contact the ministers with the army, so that they could teach them how to govern the country. The harem life is also normal, one wife and three concubines are harmonious, there has never been a scandal of jealousy in the Taisun Palace, and the King of Han just wants to find faults, and he can't find anything.

The prince is different, the first one, the image is not very good, it is indeed fat, the second, the body is not very good, how bad is it? It was not good that the emperor gave the crown ceremony to the then emperor's eldest grandson at the age of twelve, and when the crown prince was still alive, the title of the emperor's grandson was determined. This is all because of the fear that the prince will die early and that there will be another storm in the court...... From this point of view, Xu Xun felt that it was not so much that King Han lost to the crown prince, but that he was completely defeated in the struggle with the prince.

This third, there is also the fact that the prince is often in charge of the country, and often has to do errands on his own, so he is naturally often reprimanded by the emperor, and the fourth is that the prince is more lustful, and the beauties in the spring and palace are like clouds. The emperor also scolded him several times for this, so this prince was quite uncomfortable. Every time he returns to Beijing with the emperor, he goes to class, practices martial arts, attends some activities arranged by the Ministry of Rites, serves some state banquets, and then returns to the harem to accompany his wives and concubines, talk to them, and tease the stuffy.

The happiness index of the Taisun is high, and the happiness index of the Taisun Palace is also relatively high. Concubine Taisun is now raising a baby with peace of mind, and she chats with her grandson every morning, so she doesn't say anything. As for the Taisun Concubine, in addition to the pain of those days every month, she now has to go to the Chunhe Palace every day on behalf of the Taisun Palace to ask for peace, and when she comes back, she is also very busy talking to the Taisun Concubine. Xu Xun and He Xianxian went more scattered because of their small position, so they were more comfortable, and as soon as Xu Xun arrived at the Chunhe Palace, he went to the house of the two talented people, talked with them, did work, admired some clothes and jewelry, and listened to some trivial matters of the two palaces. The difference between the palace and the grandson's palace, the prince's and grandson's lives, is that she listened to the chatter of the two talented people, plus some things that the grandson accidentally said to her, and summed it up by herself.

Zhang Niangniang has been very busy recently, and Xu Xun rarely goes in to ask for peace - this year is the year of moving the capital, and the emperor is busy with court affairs, and the affairs of the harem can only be handled by Zhang Niangniang and the Shanggong Bureau, and the twenty-four yamen cooperate. Otherwise, in Zhang Niangniang's words, "Pushing it to the outer court and the Chinese people saves trouble, but when it comes to moving in, it is uncomfortable to live, and it is still troublesome to toss in the end." I'd rather be busy now, and when we get to the line, then we'll be in peace. ”

Because of this, the crown princess has to go in to help Zhang Niangniang whenever she is free, which is also what the emperor said: The princess is the concubine, and her identity is undoubtedly higher than that of ordinary concubines, and now the princess of Yonghua Palace is getting more and more sick, and she can't look at things at all. Letting the crown princess help Zhang Niangniang is also a matter of course.

Before I knew it, it was April, and the weather was gradually getting hotter, and it was almost time for the princess to give birth - speaking of which, the fetus that was almost August last year was ten months old before I knew it. The people in the court are looking forward to it, and the family of the princess also came from her hometown of Jining to get the permission of the emperor to enter the palace to visit the princess.

To be able to meet with the family, this reward is more intimate than how many gold, silver and jewelry, Sun Yunu, Xu Xun, and He Xianxian are all envious, Xu Xun didn't even want to stay in the Taisun Palace that day, the three of them all had the same mind, and they met the mother of the Taisun Princess, Mrs. Guanglu Siqing, and the three of them slipped into the palace to eat tea and talk. Speaking of this, Zhang Cairen suddenly became the target of public criticism, and was punished by Li Cairen with a smile and a lot of hard labor before it was finished: she was able to meet her mother during the New Year's holidays.

That night, when Xu Xun went to accompany his grandson to dinner, he still remembered it. He said to his grandson, "Although I shouldn't be rewarded, but one day, I do something terrible to please you......"

She hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say, 'Then let me meet my family', but said, "Then you can reward me with two portraits of my family, I have been in the palace for two years, not to mention family affairs, now, even the appearance of my father and mother, I don't remember it so clearly." ”

Xu Xun often has a meal now, sometimes she comes over to accompany her grandson, and the two of them don't do anything (the number of times is relatively small, after all, the grandson is young), that is, talking and eating. The grandson didn't want Xu Xun to pick up vegetables and scoop soup for him, these things were done by his subordinates, but he often gave Xu Xun some of the emperor's own dishes, seeing Xu Xun eating dazzled and smiling, he himself secretly laughed behind the bowl. said, "Seeing that you eat so deliciously, my appetite is great." ”

Xu Xun heard him say this, and naturally enjoyed the food harder, she was not stupid, the dishes made in the small kitchen were the most common roasted deer tendons, which were better than those in the big kitchen, and could you eat a little more, weishenme not eat a little more?

Today is no exception, speaking of which, the dishes appreciated by the small kitchen are not big dishes, hard dishes, according to the words of the grandson, 'they are all northern home-cooked dishes that the emperor loves to eat', but Xu Xun doesn't know how to do it, even a stir-fried dish is particularly delicious. Let's just have a scrambled egg with leeks today, if Xu Xun wasn't afraid that she would have to serve her grandson for a while, and the smell in her mouth was not good after eating leeks, she would have to eat a few more chopsticks. After listening to Xu Xun's words, the grandson added a piece of roast mutton to her bowl and said, "Don't you want two portraits?" You have to do something amazing to be rewarded, in your heart, how stingy am I? ”

Taisun is idle and bored, so he likes to tease Xu Xun and raise the bar to quarrel, Xu Xun is now more and more afraid of him, she pouted and said, "Why are you so stupid, this thing is nothing, but it is not a great achievement, how can it block other people's mouths." Is it possible, you appreciate the two portraits of the sisters and sisters in the Taisun Palace, what should the elders in the Chunhe Hall think when they know it? This is going to make a fuss, and it's my fault again. ”

"Isn't it just that I've been embarrassed by the inner palace a few times, look at our Xiaoxun's grievances." Taisun smiled, turned his back on his chopsticks, and knocked Xu Xun's forehead with the chopsticks. "Eat with peace of mind, when you have made a great achievement, not to mention rewarding your portrait, I will speak, let your mother come in to see you."

Xu Xun suddenly put down the bowl, "Shocking? She said in disbelief, squinting at her grandson, "What earth-shattering achievements can I make, you just lie to me, you ......"

Taisun rolled his eyes, "You are stupid, as long as you give birth to a big fat boy, can the emperor not know, can he not be happy?" This feat, which shocked the emperor, isn't it called a shocking feat? ”

Xu Xun really didn't expect this sentence to be explained like this, she thought about it, and also covered her mouth and smiled, "Yes, yes, it's quite shocking." Then I'll borrow the good words of my eldest brother. ”

However, giving birth to a child is really not such a simple matter, there is a wife and three concubines in the Taisun Palace, and now there is good news for the Taisun Princess, and the other three have a lot of sleep, but there is no movement, which can only be said to be fate has not arrived. - You must know that since the princess became pregnant, the princess personally spoke, invited the imperial doctor to all three of them, and prescribed the right prescription for food supplements.

By the middle of April, there was a stable woman guarding the house of the princess at all times, and Zhang Niangniang also sent someone to send eight nurses with sufficient milk, and the nurturing grandmother and middle-aged people who were ready to serve the prince and the princess, and a total of more than 20 people in the midwife, waiting for the princess to launch. In the days when she was almost full-term, several concubines didn't go to Concubine Taisun to ask for peace, for fear of disturbing her.

Because the concubines are all from a poor family, the foundation is not deep, and it is difficult to get in touch with the eunuchs of the 24 yamen who mainly serve the emperor, so there is no possibility of buying the subordinates to the mothers and the emperor's heirs. For example, this nursing mother, there are forty nipples every season, waiting for the call of the inner court in the special ceremonial room of the celebrant supervisor, which of these forty people are selected to enter the palace for Zhang Niangniang to choose, and which ones Zhang Niangniang chooses, that are all counted, even if there are people who have a heart to do their hands and feet, it is impossible to open up the joints to this point. However, even if the regulations are so thorough and the precautions are so thoughtful, the possibility of the emperor's heir dying is still not small. This is also something that can't be helped, children's lives are cheap, isn't it common for a typhoid fever to burn people to death? Not to mention the mother, no matter how well prepared and how noble the status is, every birth is a birth and a death. The atmosphere in the Taisun Palace is full of joy and tension, and no one knows whether it will be a happy or tragic ending next.

However, the baby of the princess is quite stable, one day at the end of April, it was launched at noon, and after about six hours of birth, the child fell to the ground, although it was a girl, but fortunately, the mother and daughter were safe. The crown prince, the crown princess, and even the emperor and Zhang Niangniang were very happy, and they came to visit the emperor's great-granddaughter in person, as the eldest daughter of the emperor's grandson, her status will be higher than that of the princesses in the future.

As for Concubine Taisun, she is still young this year, and Empress Renxiao is a prince who gave birth to two daughters, and no one will be disappointed in her, after all, it is a little too demanding. However, because of the busy relocation of the capital and the birth of the emperor's great-great-granddaughter, the emperor did not say anything about the official celebrations, and because she herself was of low rank, there was no record of the classics, and there was no music in the Ministry of Rites. Except for the washing of the three and the full moon banquet in the palace, there is no superfluous movement.

However, the festive atmosphere is not lacking, just before the Dragon Boat Festival, although the weather is hot, but this is a big festival that can be compared with the Spring Festival in a year, the female dependents are also very serious, from the first day of the fifth month of May to change into the five poison Ai Hu complement python clothes, and busy on both sides of the door to put calamus, wormwood deworming, hanging screen on the door, painting is the story of the five poisons, the house also began to smoke incense, drive away the five poisons, and keep the mosquitoes for a year without biting: no matter how noble the place is, it is difficult to ensure that mosquitoes do not breed, especially in the low-lying terrain of the palace often stagnant water, Mosquitoes are simply unstoppable.

It is in such a busy and festive rhythm that the grandson is going on a business trip again, and this time he will go out to Beijing with a light car, and then check and accept all the facilities in Beijing for the emperor. Although this has been accepted several times, and the emperor himself has also gone to see it, the old man is still a little worried, after all, after he arrives in Beijing for the New Year next year, there is no need to say more about the importance of the first New Year's court. So there is still more than half a year, and he sent out his most intimate eldest grandson to check it again. - Of course, if it weren't for the prince's fat body and the hot weather, this would have been his job.

This time out, the grandson has to live in the capital for a long time, and it will take at least two or three months to complete the acceptance and sweeping of the tails everywhere. This is different from following the emperor on expeditions and safaris, wars and hunting generally do not bring women, and the emperor can bring them, but others generally do not bring them. This kind of errand, one walk is two or three months, the grandson is fine outside, back to the residence, the diet and daily life are not taken care of by a woman, and it is not decent. The emperor thought about it very carefully, and when he talked about it with his grandson, he asked him, "Which one do you want to bring, you can say." ”

The grandson's eyes just began to roll, and the emperor remembered again, "Yes, isn't the grandson Jieyu surnamed Xu in your palace quite lucky." This time I went out on an errand, although it was not a big deal, but it was not trivial about Xindu. It's good to have her by your side, can she walk away recently? ”

can't leave, it's nothing more than happiness or illness, Xu Xunjian is healthy, these problems don't exist at all, what else can Taisun say? I had to smile and say, "Why can't you leave, she is idle all day, so let her go out with me for a walk." So as not to talk to me all day long, and be depressed in the palace. ”

"It's no wonder she's not." The emperor had a good impression of Xu Xun, so he was very tolerant, "It's summer in this palace, it's so hot that I can't stay anymore, so I sent you away, and I also took your father to leave the palace and disperse." It's wet and hot, and it's aggrieved! It's better for us to be in Beijing, the sky is a few inches high, and it's hot and dry, which is much better than Nanjing. ”

Taisun laughed and didn't say anything. The next day, I entered the Taisun Palace and mentioned it to the Taisun Princess, "The emperor is going to send me out on an errand again, and I will stay in Beijing for three or two months and then come back." ”

As he spoke, he reached out to tease the eldest daughter in the arms of the princess, rubbing her bald head. Concubine Taisun slapped his hand away, "The child's halogen door is not closed, so it's not good to touch his head...... Be careful on the road, don't eat raw water, raw melons and fruits. ”

Taisun sighed, and then went to pinch his daughter's fat hand, "I said that I could bring someone to serve with me, you say, who should go?" ”

Concubine Taisun will definitely not follow, not to mention her daughter, she was out of confinement, she ate ice watermelon because of greed, vomited and diarrhea, and has not rested until now, and she is still sick. Hearing this, he pondered for a moment, but took the initiative to say, "It stands to reason that the jade daughter will accompany you." ”

The author has something to say: update!

It's a good thing to have a high impression in general! We are hand-picked by the emperor!
