On this day, the weather was fine, and He was playing with Yuan Ying in the garden.

An attendant came to report, and Mrs. Li, Zheng Concubine and Zheng Qiao asked to see her. He saw Zheng Qiao in the Li Palace that day, and he felt love and pity. Hearing that a few people were coming, he hurriedly let him into the inner garden.

After the spring equinox, the flowers and plants in the garden are flourishing, Zheng Qiao saw the spring in the Yide Garden, and said happily: "Zhaoyi, your garden is full of spring, and the scenery is really charming." ”

Without waiting for He to speak, Li smiled and said: "Silly child, Your Majesty knows that Zhaoyi loves flowers, so he transplanted all kinds of strange flowers and flowers with a florist, and the scenery in the garden is unique in the palace." ”

He smiled slightly, and said to Zheng Qiao: "Buckwheat, the spring breeze is warm, if you are happy, I will put the qin in the garden, I will stroke the qin, you will come and sing, okay?" ”

When Zheng Qiao heard this, she smiled happily and was very happy.

"Guan Guan Ju Dove, in the river island. My Fair Lady, Gentleman. Jagged wattles, left and right flowing. My Fair Lady, I covet it. I can't ask for it, but I can't think about it. Leisurely, tossing and turning. Jagged wattles, picked left and right. My Fair Lady, Friends of the Piano. Jagged wattle, left and right. My Fair Lady, bells and drums. ”

"This is how men and women in the world should be." I don't know when, Yuan Hong has entered the garden.

Everyone was busy saluting, and Yuan Hong approached to help He with his own hands, and said: "I heard the sound of the piano outside the garden, and I knew that Zhaoyi was stroking the piano here, but I didn't know this singing. ”

He smiled and said, "Your Majesty, this is Concubine Zheng's family, who entered the palace to accompany Concubine Zheng." ”

Concubine Zheng also hurriedly approached, pulled Zheng Qiao's sleeve, leaned over together, and said, "Your Majesty, the niece's name is Zheng Qiao, and she is the concubine's brother Zheng Yi's daughter-in-law." ”

Yuan Hong smiled slightly, nodded, and no longer answered, but squatted down and asked Yuan Ying, "Ying'er, did Zhaoyi make you a snack today?" ”

Yuan Ying nodded, and said coquettishly: "Back to Aya, Zhaoyi makes delicious food for Ying'er every day, today is the halva cake, Ying'er will go to get it from Aya to eat." ”

Yuan Hong got up, glanced at He, and said to Yuan Ying: "Zhaoyi treats your dearest, there is good food for you every day, and when you grow up, you have to treat Zhaoyi to filial piety." ”

Yuan Ying raised her head and glanced at Yuan Hong first, then at He, and said, "Well, Ying'er remembers, so she will treat Zhaoyi like Aya." ”

Yuan Hong stroked Yuan Ying's head and nodded with a smile.

Seeing that he was being left cold, Li secretly hated in his heart, but forced a smile and said closely: "Your Majesty, Concubine Zheng's delivery date is approaching, and I often can't sleep at night these days. ”

When Yuan Hong heard this, he turned his head to look at Zheng Qiao and said with a smile: "In this way, you can rest assured that you will accompany your aunt in the palace to give birth." ”

Seeing that He was also full of joy, he continued: "It's very good to listen to you and Zhaoyi's song and song. In your spare time, you can also accompany Zhaoyi more. ”

Hearing the emperor's words, both the Li family and the Zheng family secretly rejoiced in their hearts. The Li family worked hard to send Zheng Qiao to He's side, so as to please the emperor, and Zheng Qiao was selected as the left and right sons.

The weather was changeable in spring, and it rained heavily that night.

Zheng ate the soup and wanted to go into the inner room to rest, but suddenly felt a warm current gushing out of his lower body, and he was shocked, and hurriedly hurried the maid to ask the maid to ask for a doctor.

Zheng Qiao and Zheng's close maid Xiabi also hurriedly helped Zheng to the couch. When the doctor arrived, he knew that Zheng's water had broken and he was about to give birth.

Li and Lu were both waiting on the sidelines, but they heard a burst of screaming from the inner room.

Li said to Huandan: "You go to Your Majesty's bedroom and report that Your Majesty's Concubine Zheng is about to give birth." ”

Huan Dan should go down and was about to leave, Li said softly: "Your Majesty should stay in Yide Yuan at this time." ”

Huan Dan looked at the Li family, saw that he made a look, although he didn't understand it very well in his heart, but the master and servant for many years, he knew that Mrs. Li must go to the emperor's bedroom first, so he nodded and retreated.

Because Zheng was a first-time child, and the amniotic fluid broke first, it was difficult for ordinary people to give birth.

Concubine Zheng is also the only daughter in the family, and she is very squeamish. At this time, Zheng's tears of pain flowed, desperately grabbing the hand of the female doctor, screaming for a while, and shouting "Your Majesty" for a while, which made people feel distressed when they heard it.

Queen Feng had already gone to bed early, and when she got the news, she had to get up and change her clothes.

Before Feng entered the room, he heard Zheng's voice. frowned, and asked, "Can you go and invite Your Majesty?" ”

Li made a regular salute and said, "The concubine has already sent someone to invite Your Majesty, but for some reason, half an hour has passed, and I haven't seen Your Majesty in person." ”

Feng squinted at Li, but didn't pay attention to her.

When a concubine gives birth, according to the usual wife, she needs to be in person. In addition to his wife Luo, who was still in the middle of the month, Yuan also rushed to Concubine Zheng's room at this moment.

Glancing at Feng's family, Concubine Lu deliberately said: "When the concubine gives birth, the queen is the lord of the middle palace, and it is not possible to arrive late." At this time, Zhaoyi has not arrived for a long time, isn't there a desire to demonstrate the queen. ”

When Feng heard this, he knew that Lu intended to provoke him. Although the Feng family is insufficient, it can be regarded as smart, if he talks to him at this moment, he is telling everyone that Zhaoyi is not his own sister. So Feng Shi endured it and glanced at Lu Shi fiercely, but he didn't make a sound.

Lu Shi saw that he was bored, so he stopped talking.

Doctor Liu Yibing, who has been in charge of the consultation since Zheng was pregnant, also hurried to the present moment and waited in the outer room. The doctors and palace maids went in and out, passed on medical news, handed over decoctions, served hot water, and were busy making a mess one by one.

It wasn't until the baby's cry sounded that Yuan Hong arrived.

Everyone in the Li Palace was already exhausted, but when they heard that the emperor had arrived, they suddenly came to their senses.

Feng hurriedly stepped forward and said to Yuan Hong: "This heavy rain is like a note, if Your Majesty doesn't come, the concubine is here to guard." ”

Yuan Hong nodded and said, "With Empress Lao, I only learned that Concubine Zheng gave birth tonight." How about now? ”

After Feng Shi Fang replied "Mother and son are safe", Li Shi had already hugged the baby in front of Yuan Hong and said: "Your Majesty, you see, this is the Seventh Prince, and he looks very energetic. ”

Yuan Hong took the baby and looked at it carefully, his face full of love.

Li smiled and said slowly: "Your Majesty, it is not easy for Concubine Zheng to give birth, and now she is sleeping deeply, if Your Majesty can give the child a resounding name, when Concubine Zheng wakes up, she will be very relieved." ”

Yuan Hong nodded, pondered for a moment, and said: "This son was born in the same month as Yue'er, I hope that the two brothers can walk hand in hand, and I also hope that he can respect and love all the brothers, so he is named after the word '悌'." ”

The Li family immediately rejoiced: "Concubine Zheng thanked Your Majesty for giving the name to the Seventh Prince." ”

Although Feng stole his limelight because of Li's stealing the limelight, he hated it in his heart, but he didn't dare to show his face like the previous time.

Forced to make a happy face, Feng said to Yuan Hong: "Your Majesty is at ease, the concubine should take care of Concubine Zheng wholeheartedly, so that her mother and son are healthy." ”

When everyone dispersed, it was already Zizheng, and the Li family returned to his palace.

Li closed his eyes slightly and leaned lazily on the couch. Because Li sent away other palace maids, Huan Dan burned benzoin with his own hands, although he was also very sleepy, he did not dare to leave, only knelt on the lower side, and gently rubbed his legs for Li.

Li Shi seemed to take a nap, and it was enough to make a cup of tea before he spoke: "Huandan, do you know why I sent you to His Majesty's bedroom?" ”

Although Huan Dan had doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to ask more, so he said cautiously at this time: "Madame has always acted safely, and the slave only does what Madame tells her." ”

Li Shi motioned for him to stop, and said coldly: "This morning, Imperial Doctor Qiao came to ask for peace for me, saying that he had a glimpse of the prescription of the medicine, and it seemed that Zhaoyi felt a cold. I expected that His Majesty would go to Yide Yuan to visit Zhaoyi tonight. ”

Turning around, Li Shi then said to Huandan: "I want you to go to His Majesty's dormitory, just to delay time." ”

Seeing Huandan's dazed face, Li sneered and said, "If you want Concubine Zheng to have a heart for me, I want her to hate her." ”

Huan Dan suddenly realized and said, "Madame is really clever. When the slave goes to His Majesty's bedroom, he must not find His Majesty, but Yide Yuan is located in a remote area, which is to immediately return to the place where Zhaoyi goes, and when His Majesty arrives in person, it will also delay the time. ”

Seeing Li's nod, Huan Dan continued: "The woman has given birth for the first time, and she must be by her husband's side. If Concubine Zheng knew that His Majesty had mistakenly accompanied Zhaoyi to give birth, she would definitely hate Zhaoyi to the core. ”

Li Shi smiled coldly and nodded.

Outside the hall, the rain was pouring down, and the spring thunder was gusting.
