Chapter 531: Pregnant Cixi (II)
Xianfeng can always spoil Cixi. On the one hand, she likes Cixi, a delicate woman who can do things. However, Xianfeng is more concerned about the unborn child. Even, he has decided that Cixi is pregnant with a son.
"Crunch!"
The door opened, and Xianfeng strode in.
At this time, Xianfeng smiled brightly, and his face was full of cheerfulness. He walked to the edge of the bed, sat down beside Cixi, and said a little nervously, "Lan'er, how are you feeling today?" My son has not moved. As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and wanted to put it on Cixi's stomach.
Cixi immediately said: "Your Majesty, you have just entered the house, and your hands are a little cold. ”
"It's okay, I'll rub it."
Xianfeng smiled, rubbed his hands, and waited for his hands to warm up before putting his right hand on Cixi's stomach. Cixi saw Xianfeng's serious appearance, and her heart was full of joy, and the smile on her face became even brighter. If Xianfeng was prevented from reaching out just now, if someone else said it, he would have been beaten to death by Xianfeng with a stick.
In this harem, only she has this treatment, so she dares to say this about Xianfeng.
Xianfeng squinted his eyes slightly, quietly feeling the movement in Cixi's stomach, and his brows trembled. Suddenly, Xianfeng opened his eyes, and said with his eyebrows dancing: "Lan'er, I feel it, I really feel it." This naughty little guy actually kicked me inside. When he is born, I must spank him and see if he dares to kick him. ”
Cixi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that when the time comes, you will be reluctant to do it again." ”
Xianfeng said: "My son, you have to be disciplined. ”
Cixi changed her words and said: "The emperor is in high spirits today, could it be that he has encountered some happy event?" ”
Xianfeng said: "Guess! ”
Cixi propped her hands on the bed, ready to sit up. Xianfeng immediately supported Cixi and helped Cixi to sit on the bed. After Cixi sat down, she said, "The concubines should guess carefully, not guess randomly." She was silent for a long time and said, "Your Majesty, the concubine guessed that it was Admiral Li from the front line who had good news coming back. Well, what can make the emperor look great and happy must be Admiral Li. ”
When Xianfeng heard this, he smiled and said, "Those who know me, Lan'er also!" ”
After a pause, Xianfeng said again: "I also just got the news about Li Zhen, he led more than 2,000 soldiers, set up an ambush, and beat Yang Xiuqing to flee back to Nanjing in embarrassment. Li Zhen is indeed a fierce general, leading his troops to the north, first defeating the female bandit Hong Xuanjiao, and now defeating Yang Xiuqing, a big bandit. It's just that Shi Da, the most powerful wing king among the bandits, drove back to Nanjing and was already preparing to counterattack. I believe that Li Zhen will definitely win a big victory. ”
Cixi asked, "Your Majesty, who is Shi Dakai?" ”
Xianfeng explained: "Shi Dakai is a fierce general among the bandits, known as Shi Dangdang, who is good at marching and arranging troops, and is extremely cunning. It was this fight that forced Zeng Guofan in Hunan to be cornered and almost committed suicide. Shi Dakai is a fierce general among the bandits, but Li Zhen is also a fierce general trained by me, and I believe that Li Zhen can win. ”
Cixi said: "Your Majesty, the concubines also believe that Admiral Li can win. ”
Xianfeng said: "Well, Li Zhenneng won." ”
Xianfeng thought of political affairs and said less, so he immediately changed his tone and said: "You are now obediently taking care of your body, giving birth to a fat dragon son for me, and spreading branches and leaves for the Aixin Jueluo family." ”
Cixi smiled charmingly and said, "Your Majesty, it's only been four months, what about early?" However, Gui Liang's daughter, Miss Zhilan, has been pregnant for more than eight months, and in more than a month, I am afraid that she will give birth. ”
Xianfeng said: "Indeed! Xianfeng saw that Cixi wanted to speak again, and said: "There are only two of us in Chuxiu Palace, what else can't be said, it's okay to say it directly." ”
"That's what the concubine said."
Cixi said slowly: "Since the concubine was pregnant, I thought every day that the emperor could be by the concubine's side, so that the concubine could feel at ease. The concubine met Zhilan a few days ago, and saw that she was lonely and pitiful, especially for those who were about to give birth, but her husband was no longer around. Pushing herself and others, the concubines hope that the emperor will accompany her every day, why doesn't Zhilan want Admiral Li to accompany her? ”
Speaking of this, Cixi's tone became serious, and she said, "Your Majesty, Li Zhen has won the battle and has sent back the good news. In this case, it is better to let Li Zhen go back to Beijing to live for a while, wait for Zhilan to give birth to a child, and then let Li Zhen leave Beijing to continue the war. Just imagine, Li Zhen knows that the emperor is so magnanimous, he must be more loyal and work harder to fight for the emperor! ”
Xianfeng glanced at Cixi and said lightly: "Lan'er, when you chatted with Zhilan, you listened to Zhilan's pleading before you spoke in front of me." ”
Cixi nodded and said, "The emperor's eyes are like torches, it is indeed Zhilan who intercedes." ”
After a pause, Cixi continued: "Actually, what the concubines also considered carefully, not all of them were Zhilan's pleas. Zhilan is one of them. On the other hand, the concubines also took into account the emperor's country. Li Zhen was cultivated by the emperor with his heart, and his loyalty could not be affected because of a little thing, and the concubines hoped that the emperor and Li Zhenjun would be together. ”
Xianfeng listened to Hou Cixi's words and fell into hesitation.
Xianfeng has a big disadvantage, that is, the roots of his ears are too soft. When he heard Cixi's words, his heart immediately wavered. Because Li Zhen was cultivated by him with countless efforts. Li Zhen, a Han Chinese, became a powerful feudal official, which was opposed by many old courtiers in the court, especially the ministers of the Eight Banners.
Because of Prince Gong's 60 support, Gui Liang's support, and Xianfeng's own support, Li Zhen was pushed to his current position. If there is an estrangement with Li Zhen because of a trivial matter, it is not what Xianfeng wants to see.
After a long time, Xianfeng shouted: "Come to someone, pass on Han Laiyu." ”
When Cixi heard this, she knew that there was a play.
She sat next to Xianfeng and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, you want to let Admiral Li completely return to your heart, not only to respect Admiral Li, but also to let Zhilan see the emperor's goodness." Once Zhilan was grateful to the emperor, she would keep whispering in Admiral Li's ear how good the emperor was. After a long time, Li Zhen has been imperceptibly affected, and he will be even more loyal to the emperor. ”
"Aifei, you are really a virtuous helper!" Xianfeng's eyes lit up, grabbed Cixi's hand, and said with a smile: "This idea is very good, when Han Laiyu comes, arrange it together." ”
It didn't take long for Han Laiyu to come to Chuxiu Palace.
Han Laiyu bowed respectfully and said, "Slave Han Laiyu, I have seen the emperor." ”
"Get up!" Xianfeng said.
Han Laiyu got up, and Xianfeng immediately said: "Looking for you, there are two things for you to do." The first thing is to go to Guiliang's Mansion immediately and tell Zhilan that I will let Li Zhen come back and wait for her to give birth. The second thing, after you go to Guiliang Mansion, immediately set off to Jiangbei Camp, bring Li Zhen back, and let Li Zhen stay next to Zhilan. Wait for Zhilan to give birth to a child, and then leave Beijing to suppress bandits. ”
"Wow!"
Han Laiyu nodded in response, turned around and left.
