Chapter 43 02-22 The Little Days of Raising a Baby
In the first half of Kangxi's twenty-first year, except for Concubine De's pregnancy, nothing else happened in the harem. Yierha's life is also very plain, caring for her sons, making clothes for them, preparing two small birthday gifts, playing with a brand of cats and bears, and then making an appointment with Qin Rou to enjoy flowers and talk about parenting.
As for the emperor? When people came, Yierha served well, and if she didn't come, she would sleep with the two brothers Jing Guji and Jing Gule. Jingren Palace is the biggest, and Yierha can still control such a little thing.
"Master, the imperial concubine is pregnant." After Dong Xue reported the news, he waited aside.
Speaking of which, when they were eighteen years old, Chunlan and Xia Zhu were twenty-five, but they chose to comb themselves and stay in the palace. This year, Qiu Ju and Dongxue are also twenty-five, but I didn't expect these two girls to choose to comb themselves.
Yierha persuaded and persuaded, Qiu Ju said directly, "When you get married, you have to serve a big family, and you have to worry about the heirs, so it's better to serve the master and come alone." ”
When he said this, Yierha was dumbfounded. Chunlan is now in charge of Erjin and Erhe's prince's office, and Xia Zhu is now fully responsible for the daily life of the three Akdun brothers, and will follow him to the prince's office next year.
Mama Wang was old, and Yierha was directly sent to her dowry Zhuangzi for retirement, and she also handed over her property outside the palace to Mama for supervision. Qiu Ju and Dong Xue were waiting, and Yierha mentioned two little palace maids, giving them the names of Shuqin and painting chess, only fifteen years old, the same age as flowers and bones.
After Qin Rou saw it, she also reminded her to look at the example of the imperial concubine, and Yierha could only thank her for her concern. No matter what the emperor does to her, Yierha will not personally push someone to the throne, which is also made clear early on. Those who had ideas, she sent them out of Jingren Palace early in the morning.
The imperial concubine is twenty-seven this year, right? He is also a year older than Yilha.
"Prepare a generous gift, Qiu Ju, you guard Jingren Palace, and Dongxue will follow me to congratulate."
When Yierha arrived at the Chengqian Palace, the palace maid of the imperial concubine was stopping Concubine De, "It is a great joy that the imperial concubine is pregnant, I don't know if it is convenient to see the palace?" ”
The palace maid saluted, got up and replied respectfully, "If you return to Concubine Shu, the imperial concubine is pregnant for the first time, and she is not feeling well, so she has already rested. Thank you for your understanding. ”
Yierha is not embarrassed, just count the etiquette. Passing the congratulatory gift, Ilha left with the winter snow. As for Concubine De, after seeing her, she saluted and left.
The imperial concubine's pregnancy gives the old people in the harem a hope, that is, maybe they can also get pregnant? When I asked for peace, the concubine's appearance was different, and she was purple and red, radiating a new round of vitality.
When Concubine Yi was also pregnant in October, everyone's enthusiasm was even higher. For the imperial concubine to be pregnant, Kangxi first considered the impact on the crown prince.
"Master, apart from the normal reward, the emperor has never visited the imperial concubine." Qiu Ju pulled her master's hair and whispered the latest news, "Concubine Yi went on the day of the good news." ”
Didn't go once in three months?
Qiu Ju understood the master's question, nodded and gave an affirmative answer.
"Heh~" It turned out that it was not her only treatment, but Yierha was not happy, and she felt sad for the imperial concubine. If you want to say that this harem loves the emperor the most, Yierha thinks that the imperial concubine is definitely the first.
I have been thinking about it for more than ten years, looking forward to the child, but my beloved gave me a bucket of cold water, and the imperial concubine estimated that her heart was cold. People who are pregnant are most afraid to think too much during pregnancy.
"One by one, can you tell if the imperial concubine is a male or female?" The fetus is more than four months old.
"Yes, the Imperial Doctor has already confirmed that it is a woman."
The imperial concubine also cares about the sex of the fetus, and the imperial doctor diagnosed it as a Gege, she was a little disappointed, and wondered if her cousin would be relieved?
This pregnancy, the imperial concubine clearly recognized that the emperor did not want the harem to have an elder brother of Tong's blood born. It's a pity that she begged for so many years to understand.
The imperial concubine was in a bad mood, and Concubine De was also in a bad mood.
At the beginning of the month, Concubine De had already given birth to a Gege, the seventh daughter of the emperor. Seven lives and eight are not alive, and Xiao Gege died in less than two hours. The imperial doctor said that it was because Concubine De had lost weight and injured her foundation before, and she became pregnant before she was raised.
The emperor didn't give a reward, nor did he come to visit her, and Concubine De was a little anxious.
If the imperial concubine is pregnant, she may take back her eldest son, but she will be confined. Still, there are ways to plan for it.
Seeing Akdun holding the flower-faced cat's ninth elder brother, Yierha was stunned for a moment, and then called someone to wipe their faces.
"Mother Shugui, isn't Qi Buchen really the child of the emperor's mother?" His voice was low, with a small anticipation in his apprehension.
Akdun put down the snack in his hand in surprise, and Yierha waved away, and she didn't mention it to her son.
"Brother Jiu, you can ask the imperial concubine in person about this matter," Yierha didn't want him to learn the truth from his mouth, "Feel it with your heart, don't blindly cling to the surface, what you hear and see will deceive you." ”
Qi Buchen obviously couldn't stay, and Yierha didn't stay long, so he asked Ade to personally send him back to Chengqian Palace.
"Eniang, isn't Qi Buchen really the child of the imperial concubine?" Alin Ah leaned in front of him and asked curiously, when they met him, they thought he was worried that his brother had robbed him of his favor.
This matter is clear in the palace, but no one deliberately debunked it, if it weren't for the imperial concubine's pregnancy, it is estimated that she would have been hiding in the dark. "Qi Buchen's biological mother is Concubine De."
Since this has been said, Yierha also briefly talked about the relationship between the imperial concubine and the concubine De. "Since you like to play with Qi Buchen, treat him as before." The child's heart is the most sensitive, and Brother Jiu is a stubborn character, so Yierha had to give an order.
Hearing Qi Buchen's question, the imperial concubine's face became serious. was in a good mood, but she didn't expect that she would let people take advantage of the loophole without worrying about it for a while. As for the candidates except Concubine De, she didn't think twice.
The one in the belly is Gege, then she must appease Qi Buchen. The imperial concubine informed him of the facts, but the charm of language was that the meaning was completely different if the position was slightly reversed, or the word was similar.
Yierha didn't know what the imperial concubine said, but he just listened to Akdun and they said that Qi Buchen was in a good mood, and he didn't go to Yonghe Palace to see Concubine De.
Giving birth to grace and nurturing grace, in this palace, there are many examples of not being able to raise their own children personally.
"Be careful, it's only been three months." Seeing that she was walking so fast, Yierha hurriedly reminded her.
Qin Rou waved her hand, "It's okay, the imperial doctor said that my fetus is very good." "But it slowed down.
"Why don't you see a few small ones?" Usually at this hour, Akdun and they must be walking the dog and coaxing the cat, it is very lively, and they are not used to being so quiet.
Yierha motioned for her to drink some ginger tea, after all, the weather was very cold, "Erjin took them out of the palace to go shopping, Jing Guji and Jing Gule were too young, they didn't go out, and they played with Mao Mao in the backyard." ”
A few days ago, Erjin met his fourth uncle and heard about Guo Luomafa's ill health. Yierha couldn't go out of the palace to visit, and it happened that they were on holiday today, so they automatically asked Ying to send medicinal herbs.
The first time I went out of the palace, I don't know what time these half-grown boys played.
"Well, I haven't congratulated you on adding four new little nephews, and two more little nephews are coming." When it came to leaving the palace, Qin Rou thought of the matter of adding Ding in the house, "Your family is really prosperous." ”
But no, Jue Luo gave birth to two elder brothers before, and now he is still pregnant with one in his belly, and the same is true for the Nala clan. Qi Jia's first birth is two elder brothers, and the eldest and youngest Guerjia each gave birth to an elder brother.
"Ama was looking forward to having a granddaughter, but it turned out that both Luo and Nala were diagnosed as Elder Brother." Ilha smiled at the thought of her Amma's reply.
The two chatted for a few words, and Qin Rou said goodbye, after all, she was pregnant and easily tired. It's freezing this day, so it's better to go back to Yikun Palace as soon as possible.
The five Erjin brothers did not return to the palace until Shenshi, which can be said to be a full return. "The sons have brought gifts to Khan Amma, the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, the Crown Prince and other brothers, and they have already been sent over." They don't have much time to play when they go out of the palace once, and remember to prepare gifts.
Yierha didn't worry about this, "Okay, let's go clean up first, I'm covered in stinky sweat." Alin'a deliberately leaned on her, twisted his ears, and begged for mercy, so that Yilha let him go.
