Such a woman who has an outstanding appearance, and relied on her belly to give birth to a boy, feels that she has been favored and does not know what the sky is high and thick.

But not to mention such a woman in the former county king's mansion, there is no shortage of such people in the Hu family's maiden Liguo Mansion.

However, Li Guogong at least values his wife and children, no matter how much he favors which aunt or concubine children, Li Guogong does not allow them to override the main family.

As the main room, the Duchess of Li Guo is never jealous, and the Duke of Li Guo is not the kind of person who is dizzy for women. For those concubines who are spoiled and spoiled, the Duchess of Liguo will support those who are younger and more beautiful than them to compete for favor, and let them fight on their own.

And Xiao Jin and the Hu family are not in harmony, the Hu family is self-controlled, and he and his children are blessed and supported by Emperor Chu, and they are too lazy to ask about Xiao Jin's concubine.

Not to mention that after Xiao Jin left the imperial capital, after the husband and wife lived in a different place, the Hu family was even happier not to have to look at Xiao Jin's face anymore.

In the end, it was once a husband and wife, although the relationship was not good and they had lived in a different place for many years, but when they just learned of Xiao Jin's death, Hu Shi felt a little sad in his heart.

After all, Xiao Jin was in her prime, and the sudden news of her death made it a little difficult for everyone to accept.

However, the sadness of that star suddenly dissipated completely after Hu Shi knew that Xiao Jin's cause of death was all due to his own fault.

And those concubines who were taken back to live in the imperial capital because they had children like Concubine He, when they saw that the palace of Prince Jin in the imperial capital was all controlled by Concubine Liao, a close confidant of the Hu family, and saw that Qingqi was carried back with a high fever, the thoughts in their hearts that were about to move were immediately gone.

So every morning after that, they didn't need anyone to mention something, they would wait outside the Hu family courtyard with their respective children, waiting to say goodbye to the Hu family.

It doesn't hurt for the adults to get up early, but the children are young, and every time they are brought to Hu by their biological mothers, they all look drowsy. Hu simply told them that the children needed to sleep well when they were young. In the future, they don't have to come every day to say goodbye, they can just bring their children every five days.

The Hu family is not a mean person, as long as they are willing to live honestly and dutifully with their children in the palace, and do not cause trouble to the palace, she will not be mean to them and their children in terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation.

They listened to Hu's instructions, and they all thanked them and left.

However, that Qingqi was probably due to bad luck, and after she was carried back with a high fever that day, she was still sick and couldn't afford a high fever. Early in the morning of the tenth day, the maid who served beside her had boiled up the medicine and was about to call her to get up and take the medicine, when she reached out and touched her, she was cold from the high fever some time before. The maid hurriedly stepped forward to take a closer look, and saw that her face was pale, and when she looked into her snort, she found that she was already exhausted.

The maid was so frightened that she fell back and hurriedly reported the matter.

During that period of recuperation, her young son lived in the Hu family's courtyard. Hu's children have long grown up, and there are no grandchildren in the house, so Hu's knees are inevitably empty.

That Qingqi has no physique, but the young son he gave birth to is snow-white, cute and cute. For the first two days, Hu Shi only ordered the nurse to carry the child to her every day to have a look. It can be seen that Hu really likes this child.

Originally, for the sake of being out of sight and out of mind, and afraid that the young child would cry when he suddenly left his biological mother, Hu asked the nurse to live with the child in the most remote room in her hospital.

More than ten days passed, not only did Hu let the nurse move in with her child, but when Concubine Liao came to tell her about her illness, Hu made a decision.

"Since she is not blessed and she is sick, you can order someone to bury her." Hu Shi motioned for Concubine Liao to sit down close to her. "That child has no biological mother, I think it is better to raise him in front of me."

"Does the princess really want to raise this child?" Concubine Liao said with some surprise, but she could also understand Hu's thoughts.

"The brothers and sisters have grown up, and although the child's biological mother is not very good, the child does not look like his biological mother." Hu said with a smile. "There's nothing to worry about in the house, and I'm sitting in the yard all day long, so let that kid accompany me."

"The princess is willing to raise him, which is naturally his blessing." Concubine Liao replied. "Anyway, the child is young, so it's okay to hold it under the princess's knees."

On the 7749th day of the cessation of the spirit, Xiao Jin's coffin was carried into the imperial mausoleum for burial.

The next day, Emperor Chu decreed that the eldest son of Xiao Jin and Princess Hu would inherit the princess and become the new Prince Jin. When Hu was less than forty years old, he became the concubine of Prince Jin's mansion.

Not only that, but under the persuasion of Emperor Liu's concubine, and thinking that Qin Zhaoyi was sad about Xiao Jin's death, Emperor Chu canonized Qin Zhaoyi as a virtuous concubine.

In the spring of the following year, Xiao Xuan had a banquet in the mansion, and Hu was invited.

"It's been a while, and I don't know how the second sister-in-law takes care of it, and she's even more radiant than the last time we met." Xiao Xuan asked in surprise when he saw Hu Shi. "Is this child the brother Xi who was raised by the second sister-in-law?"

Because of filial piety, the Hu family rarely goes out to banquets, and if it weren't for Xiao Xuan's invitation today, the Hu family would not have come.

"Yes, his biological mother is gone, and I pity him and raised him in front of me when he is young." Speaking of this, Hu asked the nurse who was holding the child behind her to come forward to greet Xiao Xuan.

This child was born very well, especially with a pair of big watery eyes, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but love it when she saw it.

"Come, come closer, show me." Seeing this, Xiao Xuan raised her hand and motioned for the nurse to come closer. "He's a likable kid."

At today's banquet, many girls came with their children, and Xiao Xuan had some things at hand to reward people.

"This is the first time I've seen this child, and I won't let him walk empty-handed." Xiao Xuan saw that he was cute, and because of the face he was now raising under the knees of the Hu family, he didn't give Suihong the things he had prepared in advance, but asked someone else to take a pair of gold and jade immortal locks and bring them to the child with his own hands.

Obviously, Hu Shi had taught the child before taking the child out, and the child suddenly saw Xiao Xuan not crying or making trouble, with a smile on his chubby face, and he looked very pleasing. When Xiao Xuan leaned forward to put a longevity lock on him, he honestly sat in the arms of his nurse and let Xiao Xuan fiddle with it.

After Xiao Xuan brought him the immortal lock, he touched his little face with a smile.

"Thank you, auntie." Without waiting for the nurse to open his mouth to remind, he muttered for a while, and thanked him angrily.

"This child has never been born." Hu Shi said with a chuckle. "The children born under my knees have all grown up, but it is Brother Xi'er who is now - inheriting - happy - adding a lot of happiness to me."

"This is the fate of Brother Xi and the second sister-in-law." Xiao Xuan continued. "By the way, has the second sister-in-law been in the palace recently?"

"I took Brother Xi a few days ago to greet Concubine Xian." Hu knew the meaning of Xiao Xuan's words. "After a winter of recuperation, Concubine Xian's body is much better. After seeing Brother Xi'er, Concubine Xian was also very happy. ”

"The second brother passed away, and the queen mother was calm when she heard the bad news, but the virtuous concubine was sick for a long time." Speaking of this, Xiao Xuan couldn't help but say with emotion.

"Don't mention that." Hu Shi waved his hand and said. "I heard that the princess's colt has risen again? It should be to congratulate Princess Ichiga. ”

Duan Shaolan's previous peak was promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Duan Shaolan was recommended by Shangfeng to take over the position of squire of the Ministry of War.

At the mention of her husband, the smile on Xiao Xuan's face became sweeter and sweeter.

In the following days, when Xiao Xuan entered the palace to ask Emperor Chu for peace, he also went to see Concubine Xian once.

Half a year has passed since Xiao Jin's death, and Concubine Xian has finally come out of the emotion of losing her son.

Seeing that the palace maid led Xiao Xuan in, and saw Brother Min and Sister Su who came with Xiao Xuan, Concubine Xian's eyes couldn't help but light up.

"Go get some snacks." Concubine Xian has always liked children, and hurriedly ordered the palace maid one after another. "Princess, please take a seat."

Brother Min and Sister Su have also met Concubine Xian several times, and after coming in, Brother Min took his sister to Concubine Xian and asked for peace. Concubine Xian pulled the two children to their feet, held their hands and spoke to them gently.

"Is Concubine Xian Niangniang in good health now?" Xiao Xuan took the warm tea from the palace maid's hand and took a sip gently. "I couldn't visit the palace before, it was my negligence."

"It's okay, I'm fine." Concubine Xian looked at the immature faces of Brother Min and Sister Su, and couldn't help but recall Xiao Jin's appearance when she was born, she had just taken a look, and Emperor Chu asked Wu Chuan to bring the nurse over and take the child away. "A sad heart and an illness should be all the shallow fate between me and his mother and son."

Concubine Xian is the concubine of the eldest princess of Yongrong, and she has always kept to herself in the harem.

From the moment she was sent to serve Emperor Chu, she has been quiet. Therefore, when the queen was infertile for many years, Emperor Chu had to choose to take away Concubine Xian's newborn child in order to better protect the mother and son of Emperor Liu's concubine.

Since she knew that Xiao Jin was sick after the news of her death, Concubine Xian had insomnia day by day on the sickbed, and she would always think about her thoughts inadvertently at night. If Xiao Jin hadn't been taken away to Zhaoyang Palace to be the adopted son of the queen, he would not have come to this point, and he would not have died in a different place at the age of his prime.

The more unoccupied the night is, the more this thought can occupy all of Concubine Xian's mind.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhaoyang Palace was sealed by Emperor Chu, Concubine Xian would only want to go to Zhaoyang Palace to find out the queen, hating her for teaching Xiao Jin badly.

Later, Concubine Xian learned the queen's reaction when she learned of Xiao Jin's death, and she hated the queen's coldness and ruthlessness even more.
