Yun Fenghuan had made up his mind, but he didn't show it at all on his face, he only sighed and regretted the death of the Xiao Jiang family, and asked Chen Jing to go to Xie Mansion in person: "Persuade the eighteenth brother, by the way, also send the eighteenth sister-in-law on behalf of the palace." ”

At this time, the palace door was almost locked, so Chen Jing was able to return the next morning, when he came over, Yun Fenghuang was dressing up, and saw that his face was not very good from the bronze mirror, and he couldn't help frowning: "Brother Eighteen is very sad? ”

"The eighteenth prince is naturally sad now." Chen Jing hesitated, and Fang said closely, "It's just ...... But it's not all for the eighteenth young lady. ”

He paused and sighed, "Little boy...... Not so good. ”

"How could the little boy not be good?!" Yun Fenghuang was stunned for a moment and said, "This palace remembers that the eighteenth sister-in-law was born at full term, and the fetus has always been stable?" ”

In such a situation, it is still possible for the mother to die of a postpartum hemorrhage, but how can the child not be well?

Chen Jing wanted to speak and stopped.

Seeing that Yun Fenghuan was about to attack, he quickly knelt down and cried: "Niangniang, it is the eighteenth prince who is forced by his life, and the slave maid is not allowed to tell Niangniang, saying that Niangniang is also pregnant now, I am afraid that you will worry too much, and it will be unfavorable to the emperor's heir!" ”

"Then why don't you just stay in Xie Mansion and be a slave for him?!"

Chen Jing didn't dare to admit this, so he still said it: "The eighteenth prince also thinks that the little prince is not good, so he thoroughly investigated the Hefu last night and found that ...... I found that among the objects I was carrying, I had been touched by my hands and feet, and they were all infected with abortion and fetal injuries! The eighteenth prince vomited blood on the spot, and early this morning, he took people to Mingyu Lane and took the two cheap maids in it, saying that he wanted to pay for the life of the eighteenth young lady with a thousand knives! ”

"......" Yun Fenghuan almost laughed angrily, "You mean, the eighteenth sister-in-law may not have had an accident in the first place, but those two cheap maids did it?!" ”

Chen Jing choked up and said, "The Eighteenth Prince found out that this is ......"

"Those two cheap maids were born in the prostitution family, if there is no eighteenth brother who swears, even if they murder the eighteenth sister-in-law, what good can they do?!" Yun Fenghuan was really angry, and said angrily, "It must be the eighteenth brother who promised that as long as the eighteenth sister-in-law is gone, he will carry them through the door!" The eighteenth sister-in-law was killed by the eighteenth brother!! ”

"Mother's anger!" Seeing this, the left and right hurriedly knelt down and begged her to calm down, "Niangniang, the matter has come to this, the eighteenth young lady can't come back, no matter how angry you are, it won't help, if you hurt yourself, how about calling the eighteenth young lady's spirit in the sky?" Moreover, the eighteenth prince is young and inevitably playful. Where can this casual remark be taken seriously? If you want to blame, only blame those two cheap maids for their delusional thoughts, and when they come out of the pickled ground, they dare to think about the Xie family! ”

"Yes, Niangniang, the eighteenth prince is your blood and blood, how can you hurt your own flesh and blood for outsiders?"

"Now the eighteenth prince also knows that he is wrong, as the so-called prodigal son does not change his money, please calm his anger, and the little son said that it is not good, just raise it? You should look at the face of the little boy. The little boy will have no mother at this time, and in the future, he will count on his father! ”

A group of people persuaded him, and Chen Jing also said that although Xie Drizzle was not good, he really cared about Yun Fenghuang's body and bones, lest she be angry and hurt herself.

Yun Fenghuang fell and scolded, and in the end, he sat down weakly and leaned on Xiaoji, and said in a dumb voice: "Chicalyx, you will take the imperial doctor to Xie Mansion later, and you must protect the blood of the eighteenth sister-in-law." ”

Red Calyx took the order to go down, Red Calyx hesitated, and then stepped forward to say goodbye, and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, Miss Meng, they have heard the news and have been waiting outside for a while, can Niangniang allow them to come in?" ”

"......" Yun Fenghuang rubbed the corners of his forehead and smiled bitterly, "Their aunts and sisters are gone, so they should naturally come." Let everyone come in. ”

After a while, Xie Meng, Xie Yi, Xie Kuo rushed in, and followed by Xie Ao, who was in a hurry, looking like he had just come from behind.

"Auntie, I heard that something happened to Aunt Eighteen?" A group of girls saluted after entering, and Xie Meng took the lead in asking.

Seeing Yun Fenghuang nodding with red eyes, tears also fell, "How can this be?" Two days ago, Aunt Eighteen was fine. ”

Because Xiao Jiang's niece was Jiang's niece before passing through the door, he had always had a close relationship with Xie's fourth room.

Xie Meng, Xie Yi, and Xie Ao, the three sisters, are no strangers to this eighteenth aunt.

Although Xie Kuo is going to be a level away, at this moment, his face is also solemn to show his sadness.

For a time, the atmosphere in the hall was very heavy.

Yun Fenghuang endured his sadness and said a few words to them, and then hurriedly interrupted and persuaded the girls of the Xie clan to retreat first.

"Auntie, can we go and give Aunt Eighteen a ride?" Hearing this, Xie Kuo suddenly raised his head and asked, "By the way, take a look at the eighteenth uncle and the little cousin." ”

This request is human nature, after all, the Xiao Jiang clan is not only their serious elders, but also has always cared about them, not to mention, after Xie Xiaoliu and his wife returned to the Northland, their heirs all stayed in the imperial capital.

Except for Xie Meng who was raised in the palace, Xie Meng's brothers have always been taken care of by Xiao Jiang.

Yun Fenghuang agreed without much thought and asked Chen Jing to arrange it for them.

"After the young ladies come back, find an excuse for them not to come to the mother before the full moon of the little prince." Seeing this, the Qing people turned their heads and told Chen Jing, "Don't bump into the mother and the little prince." ”

Although Yun Fenghuang's fetus has not yet been diagnosed with men and women, the people below must all hope to give birth to a prince, so they are called "little princes" every day, hoping that their wishes will come true.

And Xie Meng and the others went out of the palace to Xie Mansion, and the mourning hall had already been set up at this time, due to the suddenness of the matter, the arrangement was not thoughtful, and it was hasty and sloppy.

But because Yunfeng Huang was still pregnant, and had always treated Xie Xiaoyu and his wife well, the crowd that came to mourn had the meaning of endless flow at this moment, and their carriage would have been blocked if it hadn't been for the palace logo.

"Uncle Eighteen." As the younger generation of his own family, and the children who have always been raised in front of the concubine, not long after Xie Meng and the others entered the door, they were invited to the study to meet Xie Drizzle.

Xie Xiaoyu is very similar to Concubine Min's appearance, she was born tall and handsome, and she is one of the best looking children of Xie's generation.

He and Xie Wuzheng are not the same type, they are the kind of standard Northland athletes, with broad shoulders and narrow waist, sharp edges and corners, and masculine handsomeness from head to toe.

But at this moment, Xu Shi suffered the pain of losing his wife, and looked haggard and weak.

Seeing the nieces rushing in, he smiled reluctantly and said, "Why did you come back?" What does the mother say? ”

Xie Meng said with concern: "Eighteenth uncle, please mourn and change." ”

Then he probably talked about Yun Fenghuang's attitude...... In fact, the four children didn't know the inside story very well, but Yun Fenghuang cried a lot about this, and his eyes were red, "Auntie allows us to come back to mourn the eighteenth aunt, and by the way, take a look at my cousin." ”

"There are a lot of people in the mourning hall now, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for you to go." Xie Xiaoyu thought for a while and said, "That's it, you can go and see your cousin." Your eighteenth aunt has always loved you, and I won't blame you. ”

After a pause, he asked them again, "In the palace, you have to listen to the words of the mother." ”

They were then taken to see the newborn, and the little baby boy was so quiet that Xie Meng couldn't help but reach out to probe his breath.

If she didn't feel it carefully, it would be like nothing, which scared her a lot.

"We rarely come back, and we will definitely not be able to go out of the palace to visit from time to time in the future, so we will spend more time with our cousins." She whispered to the three sisters, Xie Kuo bit his lip, and suddenly said in a low voice, "There are too many people outside, and Uncle Eighteen can't be busy at all, even if there are cousins and cousins to help, in the end, there is still no skill." Let our people help Uncle Eighteen for a while, so that Uncle Eighteen will not be too tired. ”

This was unanimously agreed by Xie Meng and others, so they stayed in the house where the baby was placed.

Afraid of waking the child, they stayed in the back room for a while, and then retreated to the outer room.

Sitting down at a round table with yellow pear inlaid marble carved grass patterns, the four sisters were a little worried.

Xie Kuo suddenly said: "This thing is too sudden, two days ago, Aunt Eighteen was fine, we are all discussing, when Aunt Eighteen gives birth, what kind of congratulatory gift should I give?" If you make your own embroidery, what if your skills are not good and you call Aunt Eighteen laughs? As a result, in the blink of an eye, heaven and man are forever separated. ”

Xie Meng said listlessly: "Yes, I can't come back to my senses at this point...... When my mother accompanied my grandmother to go back to the north, she told me that if she had anything to do in the future, she just had to tell Aunt Eighteen. Results ......"

Xie Yi was silent, and sighed faintly.

Xie Ao, the only concubine, was able to live in the palace as Princess Zhaoqing's companion, and he was not very familiar with the three cousins, so he didn't dare to make a sound at the moment, only lowered his head and studied the patterns on the table.

"I just saw my aunt in the hall, I was really scared." Seeing that they hadn't reacted yet, Xie Kuo gritted his teeth and continued, "My aunt cried so sadly that I couldn't help but think of ......"

After a pause, she gently spit out the second half of the sentence, "I thought of Aunt Eighteen!" ”

Xie Meng and Xie Yi didn't react for a while, but Xie Ao, who was used to looking at people's faces, looked up in amazement and looked straight at Xie Kuo!

There was a moment of silence in the room, Xie Mengteng got up, leaned over, and slapped Xie Kuo without hesitation: "Your mother is going to follow in the footsteps of the eighteenth aunt!" Who allowed you to curse your aunt!? ”

Xie Yi didn't react as violently as Xie Meng, but he also frowned and said, "Xie Kuo, what do you mean?" Don't forget that you can have today, thanks to your aunt's cultivation! ”

"Of course I know how important my aunt is to us." Xie Kuo didn't hide, and he didn't care about Xie Meng's move, let the red fingerprints slowly float on his snow-white cheeks, and said calmly, "I'm nothing without my aunt, how can I curse my aunt?" ”

Xie Meng and Xie Yi looked at her coldly.

Xie Kuo said calmly: "Our family has been supported by my aunt so far, Uncle Twenty-one said that he was a concubine, but he has already gone into hiding, and there must be no problem for him to live freely with Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, but it is unlikely that he wants to favor us people." So once my aunt has a good life, how can we have a good life?! If I could, I would like to take out a switch to get my aunt and wife to give birth to a cousin or cousin! But if you look at Aunt Eighteen and think about Concubine Wen Huixian back then, can this kind of thing be accurate? ”

Xie Meng, Xie Yi, and Xie Ao were all silent.

Yes, regarding the risk of childbirth, even if they are not very old, but they are from a thriving family, who has not experienced or heard of a few births, old age, sickness and death when they can remember?

Before Xie Meng entered the palace, there were examples of death in childbirth among close relatives.

It's just that she was too young at that time, and she didn't understand the meaning of death, let alone the difficulty of production.

After entering the palace, the biological mothers of the imperial heirs who died in childbirth had no close connection with them, so they heard about it.

But Xiao Jiang's is different, this is their serious elder, or the elder who is close to each other, not to mention getting along day and night, but they are also very familiar.

She died, died of dystocia, and it is no wonder that Xie Kuo would think of Yun Fenghuang's pregnancy.

Xiao Jiang's family grew up under the Jiang family's watch, and his body and bones have always been good, otherwise, it would be impossible for the Jiang family to say it to his own son.

After she entered the door, she didn't even have a headache and brain fever, and the pregnancy process was also very smooth, so it was still gone...... Who can guarantee that Yun Fenghuan will not follow in her footsteps?

Once something happens to Yun Fenghuan, what will they do with the girls who were raised by the concubine?

Xie Meng, who had the most intense temperament, didn't know what to say for a while.

"Sister Meng'er, you are twelve years old this year, and you can discuss marriage." Xie Kuo looked at the silent sisters, knowing that they had no ideas, he squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Xie Meng, "Why don't you take advantage of the efforts in Xie Mansion now, talk to your cousin, and let your grandmother write a letter to your aunt, and then look for you at this time?" In this way, you have a place to go. After all, His Majesty's affection for his aunt is deep-rooted, as long as he is married, even if he ...... Your Majesty will not allow your husband's family to repent of the marriage! ”

"What bastard are you talking about!" Xie Meng's face changed for a moment, he slammed the table angrily, and sneered, "Aunt is blessed, where is it comparable to ordinary people?!" Auntie will be fine! I don't want to talk about marriage now! I still hope that after my aunt gives birth, she will worry about me with all her heart! ”

Xie Kuo said calmly: "Who doesn't want to? But you should also know that no one can say for sure about this kind of thing. ”

She exhaled slowly, "And, do you think I'm suggesting this for my own sake?" Don't forget, the eighteenth aunt is gone, but the little cousin is staying. This is the eldest son of the eighteenth uncle, of course the eighteenth uncle will treat him well, and the fourth aunt will definitely love him...... However, if the aunt really ...... Do you think there is anyone in the palace who will take care of your aunt's children? What has my aunt suffered the most since she entered the palace? Isn't it that my Xie family is not obvious! And my aunt is not loved by the Queen Mother, do you think the Queen Mother will be as attentive to her aunt's children as the fourth aunt is to her little cousin? ”

This time, Xie Meng, Xie Yi and Xie Ao didn't speak.

At their age, even if they have some careful thoughts for their own sake, they still care about their feelings in the end.

Even if Yun Fenghuang has neglected his nieces and nephews in the past two years, he has at least raised people with good food and drink, fine clothes and fine food in the palace, and the daily treatment is much better than at home, and there is a bonus to future marriage.

In view of these, even if they envied King Qin and Zhaoqing that they could go to find the concubine to be coquettish anytime and anywhere, they were still grateful to the concubine in general.

Not to mention that now that they have left the protection of the concubine, their future must be insecure.

So the four girls all hope from the bottom of their hearts that Yun Fenglian can be safe for their mother and son.

But just like Xie Kuo said, no one can say for sure about this kind of thing.

The best result is that Yun Fenghuang successfully gave birth to the imperial heir, and his favor and status have risen to a higher level, and the status and status of their nieces have also risen.

The result of belonging to the middle point is that Yun Fenghuang is alive, and the imperial heir is not alive...... This is of course a blow, but Yun Fenghuang has proved one thing over the years, she doesn't rely on having children to compete for favor. As her nieces, Xie Meng believed that if this was the case, her aunt might be able to use this matter to further win the emperor's favor.

The worst result is that Yun Fenghuang and the child are not saved, so whether they are Xie or not, they will definitely end up gloomy.

And there is another result, which is like Xiao Jiang's, the cloud wind is gone, and the child stays.

This......

Who will protect this child?

Xie Kuo looked around and said cautiously: "Although the fathers and brothers in the family did not hesitate to live and die, they went to Wei Su to make meritorious contributions, but after all, the starting point is low, and I think it will be a while and a half, and it may not be effective." Our female generation, when we entered the palace under Aunt Chenghuan's knees, it was more or less to marry a high-ranking family. In this case, why can't you explain your mind to your aunt now and make a marriage in advance? In this way, it is best if my aunt is safe and sound, but if it is...... That aunt's child is somewhat dependent, isn't it? ”

“…… Once the aunt has three long and two short. Xie Ao didn't want to intervene in the discussion of the concubines at will, but when he heard this, he couldn't help it, and reminded, "Even if our marriage continues under the mercy of His Majesty, I'm afraid that there is no weight in the husband's family, but how can I rely on my aunt's children?" ”

Xie Kuo said lightly: "Then you have a better way?" Or do you think we have other ways to plan for my aunt and son? ”

Xie Ao choked and whispered, "But how can you say this kind of thing to your aunt?" ”

Even if it's a good heart, this aunt is still decent, you go and say aunt, you see that the eighteenth aunt is gone because of childbirth, what if you are like her, or you will first find us a high-ranking family to marry, so that you have no children and a number of noble sons of the quasi-brother-in-law, so that it is a bargaining chip, so that you will not have a good life because of the loss of the support of your mother?

…… Even if it is an aunt, I believe that Concubine Min can tear them apart.

Xie Ao looked at Xie Kuo and said tentatively, "Could it be that Sister Kuo'er plans to go and say it in person?" ”

Then she respects Xie Kuo for being a man!

Xie Kuo glanced at her: "What qualifications do I have to say such things to my aunt." ”

pursed his lips, "No, we're in Xie Mansion now?" This is our own home, talk and act, isn't it convenient? ”

Otherwise, why did she propose to come back to Xie Mansion to offer condolences?

Is it true that she came here to offer pure condolences?

In the palace, Yun Fenghuang didn't know that her nieces were already worried about her, and she was even working how to think about her children after her death, and was carefully considering the plan to kill Empress Dowager Yuan......
