Chapter 276: Buns
"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, Your Highness is safe."
Yan Qingge didn't expect that she bumped into the prince as soon as she went out, she hurriedly lowered her head, retreated to the side, and respectfully greeted the prince.
The prince's slightly long eyes turned slightly, and his eyelashes closed slightly, covering the momentary distraction in his eyes.
"Get up." He took a step forward and wanted to help Yan Qingge up, but Yan Qingge got up quietly.
The crown prince looked at Yan Qingge, she had been in the palace for more than a year, and the two had met no more than three times. In the past six months, she has changed a lot, but she has not changed.
What has changed is her appearance, she has changed from tall and strong when she first entered the palace, honey-skinned, back to the white skin and slender body she used to be.
Only she can't shrink back, she is still so tall, with long hands and feet, and her body is exquisite, beautiful like a weeping willow by the lake.
What hasn't changed is her look and bearing, full of vitality and aura in her calmness, which others can't imitate - whether it is Bi Ying or Yan Shuyu, or the rest of the scheming women, they are not as good as her.
It's just that there is no turning back on many things. And he is not the young man who stupidly treats her as a plum blossom fairy and has been infatuated with for many years.
All the past, like smoke and illusion, has disappeared, and only the memory is forever.
I have experienced the flames of war, the alternation of rights, and the air of a day and a night. He had a lot of different women, and even had children of his own, and those trivial things, filled in too much.
The most ridiculous thing is that when he saw her, he could accept that without her, the throbbing turned into sighs, revealing everything, maybe there was unwillingness and hatred, she was no longer his necessity, but because of the habit she deliberately developed to treat the women of Chuxiu Palace well in small things, she still stayed.
"You came here for the queen mother, but it was for the concubine on the water side." The prince spoke softly and said to Yanqin Ge.
"The folk girl is just here to say goodbye to the mother." Yan Qingge bowed his head and replied respectfully.
A string in the prince's heart was plucked, and Yan Qingge's eyes did not look at him, making his heart feel like a layer of lonely snow in the good spring.
"Don't worry, I know what the queen mother thinks, I will take Shui Ying back to Chuxiu Palace." The prince comforted Yan Qingge and said with a pleasant face.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
The two were relatively speechless, the prince opened his mouth, almost wanted to say anything more, and finally didn't say a word, and walked into the main hall of Fengzao Palace.
After the prince left, Yan Qingge secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his back was already soaked in cold sweat.
Although the crown prince does not live long, he is a king with deep thoughts and very means.
Before Yan Qingge's rebirth, after the death of the prince, the young emperor succeeded to the throne, and people like Yan Shuyu listened to the government, only relying on the old ministers left by the prince and the strategy of governing the country, so that the Great Zhou Dynasty was stable and stable, and it was rare that something went wrong, so it can be seen that his ability can be seen.
In the face of this kind of person, Yan Qingge only has one feeling: the Tao is different, and they do not conspire with each other.
She still felt that Yan Xiuyu was like this, which suited her appetite.
Ruyi was waiting for Yan Qingge to come out in the pantry outside.
When she saw Yan Qingge coming out of the main hall, she was about to meet her, but when she saw the prince, she could only hide back.
After the prince left, Ruyi hurriedly stepped forward to support Yan Qingge and said, "Miss, let's go back quickly." ”
Yan Qingge laughed and nodded his head: "Just go slowly, we didn't do anything wrong." ”
Prince Fangcai's attitude towards her made her feel that the strategy she had done before was right.
Whether it is a man or a woman, after having a child, the affection for men and women will be much weaker. This is especially true after the birth of a child.
Yuan Qianqian didn't ask the prince to change much before, she couldn't see it clearly, Yan Qingge lived a lifetime, but she saw it clearly, Yuan Qianqian was being used by the prince from beginning to end, and even her remaining child, Yuan Jin, was not taken seriously by the prince, and let Yuan Qianqian raise him into a little devil by herself.
But now the women who are pregnant in the prince's courtyard are not like Yuan Qianqian, even if there are a few who do not please the prince, but most of them are still okay, and the more women who were not taken to heart by the prince in the past, the more easily they give birth to children.
After returning to the side hall, Aunt Xia Fan greeted her and asked, "Miss Yan, what is the news from Niangniang?" ”
"Auntie, don't worry, when I came out, I met His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness personally came to Fengzao Palace to beg for people, and Niangniang should let the concubine go back." Yan Qingge was relieved.
As for the stupid words that the queen said before that she wanted to raise Shui Ying's children to be the fourth prince, it was impossible to really realize it, so she shouldn't take it out to stimulate people.
Aunt Xia Fan smiled on her face: "This is really excellent. ”
She still thought that if the queen really insisted on keeping Shui Ying here, she couldn't say that she would have to go through the prince's side.
The mother and son, since returning to Beijing, seem to have a bad deal with each other, often do it against each other, every time the queen loses, and now the prince takes the initiative to take action, no matter how good it is.
Aunt Xiafen's people were watching the wind outside, and sure enough, after the prince entered, he came out not long after, followed by Shui Ying, and the palace people who accompanied Shui Ying.
Seeing that Shui Ying was fine, Yan Qingge and Xia Fan both breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Qingge even showed a cheerful smile.
Like a little fox who laughed at Yan Qingge, he was very proud, and asked puzzledly: "Miss, what are you laughing at?" ”
"I haven't had time to tell you that Niangniang said that young people are prone to spring fatigue, so I won't be asked to say hello for the past few days." Yan Qingge said with a grin.
It is conceivable that in the next few days, the queen's temper will definitely not be good, Yan Qingge will not go to her and avoid the limelight in the past few days, it is simply better.
Unconsciously, summer has arrived, and because the queen made such a scene, Shui Ying never came to Yan Qingge again.
However, Yan Qingge counted the days of Shui Ying's birth, and made a lot of small clothes, socks, and diapers for babies with very fine cotton cloth in advance, each of which hid the thread very well, and rubbed it inch by inch, so that there would be no harm to the baby's skin.
In addition, she also recalled Shui Ying's body shape and helped her make a few new belly pockets. This belly pocket is not unfastened from the back like the common one, wide and loose, but a popular model a few years before Yan Qingge's rebirth.
Because after a woman gives birth, her waist will become thicker, and the palace and large families cannot breastfeed the child in person, so it is very painful to return milk. Therefore, the waist of this belly pocket is extremely tight, the chest is open, and the strap is usually tied up, which is not only convenient for the woman who has changed her body shape after giving birth to recover her waist, but also helps the woman to warm the chest at any time when the milk is uncomfortable, which is very convenient.
This morning, Yan Qingge just got up, and Aunt Xia Fan entered the door and said to Yan Qingge: "Concubine Shuibian has started." ”
Yan Qingge was taken aback. Calculating the time, there is obviously a month before it should be the day of Shuiying production.
"Auntie, what the hell is going on? Isn't it until next month that Shui Ying should be born? Yan Qingge was nervous and held Xia Fan's hand tightly.
Xia Fan saw that Yan Qingge's face turned pale with fright, and hurriedly relieved: "Miss Yan, don't worry, the imperial doctor and Wen Po said it's okay." Concubine Shuifang is pregnant with twins, and her belly is too big, so it is easier to be born earlier than only one. Besides, it was only more than half a month early, and the mother and son should not be in a big deal. ”
Chuxiu Palace has already cleaned up the delivery room and the old palace people who are good at thrift, these people are all found by the prince, and their net worth and background have all been investigated, as usual, there will be no accidents.
In the delivery room, Shui Ying was lying on the futon with a sweaty face, and she started to start in the middle of the night last night, but because it was the first child, it was not good to give birth, and until now, it was still just painful, and she didn't really want to give birth.
The aunt beside her brought a bowl of thick brown sugar sweet soup, added two poached eggs to it, and said, "Concubine Fang, drink some sweet water, don't run out of strength when you are born for a while." ”
Shui Ying smiled at her, took two sips, and said, "My mouth is a little light, and I want to eat steamed buns with mushroom filling." ”
As soon as she heard Shui Ying take the initiative to ask for food, the aunt said happily: "This is not difficult, the side concubine is waiting." After saying that, he rushed out in a hurry.
He Peng accompanied Yuan Qianqian, sat under the porch, and watched the situation in the delivery room from afar.
There are so many pregnant women in Chuxiu Palace this year, Shui Ying was the first to start, but Yuan Qianqian, who has no news in her stomach so far, hated her teeth itching, she didn't say anything in her mouth, and she cursed all over the gods and Buddhas in her heart, begging God to call Shui Ying one corpse and two lives.
Seeing Shui Ying's aunt running out, she hurriedly walked out, Yuan Qianqian held the palace fan in her hand, knocked on Hepeng's waist, and raised her head.
Hepong immediately understood and stopped his aunt, who was not able to hold steady footsteps and almost hit Hepeng.
Everyone lived in a courtyard, and when they looked up, they didn't look down, and the aunt also recognized Hepeng, and said, "Yo, it's Hepeng girl, I'll go to the imperial dining room, and the girl has something to bring." ”
Shui Ying and the people around her have always been kind to others, and He Peng didn't want to make things difficult for her, but she couldn't bear Yuan Qianqian watching from the side, and said stubbornly: "Why does my aunt go to the dining room." ”
"We are a side concubine and want to eat a few bites of steamed buns." My aunt didn't hide it from her and said.
"Our concubine asked for buns in the morning, and there are a lot of left, my aunt will go to the dining room now, and I don't know when I will come back, so it's better to take the amount in our house first." Holpon said.
Yuan Qianqian glanced approvingly.
The aunt looked at Hepeng and secretly complained in her heart.
At this time, how dare she ask Shui Ying to eat the things sent by others, especially Yuan Qianqian.
She stiffened her smile and asked, "What kind of stuffing is this bun girl?" After our side concubine became pregnant, the taste was very strange. ”
"What kind of stuffing does the concubine want to eat?" He Peng was not fooled, so he didn't answer what was the stuffing of the buns in his house, but asked about his aunt.
My aunt smiled and said: "Our girl wants to eat steamed buns stuffed with green vegetables and shiitake mushrooms, but Miss Hepeng doesn't know, our concubine has a bad mouth, this mushroom, don't eat the mushrooms, only eat the chewy pole, the greens should be mixed with crushed white sesame seeds, and you can't use pork to flavor it, when you make the stuffing, you need to order a little wine, you have to do it smaller than a child's fist, and you can't have juice." Because I was afraid that she would eat, I told the dining room to make it last night, as long as the fire was steamed, it would be fine for half a moment. ”
