Chapter 69: The Eighteenth Elder Brother (II)
In the autumn of the fortieth year of Kangxi, when there was silence in the middle of the night, Su Lian and Xuan Ye were woken up from their deep sleep, and it turned out that the Wang family had just given birth safely, adding another son to Xuan Ye. The fastest update to visit this child is Xuan Ye's twenty-eighth son, if it is in order, it will be the eighteenth elder brother!
The birth of the eighteenth elder brother made Xuan Ye overjoyed. Although the biological mother of the eighteenth elder brother has been annoyed by Xuan Ye, this is his last son, how can he not be happy.
Xuan Ye was originally thinking that one of the concubines and the Wang family's belly must be a prince, right? In Xuan Ye's heart, he actually looked forward to it even more, the one in the concubine's belly was the prince, and it was not very important whether the Wang family was a son or a daughter in the belly. He Concubine is an authentic Manchurian, and she is surnamed Guerjia, and her background is also decent, Xuan Ye naturally feels that if his son comes out of such a belly, he can also be decent.
It's a pity that the sky doesn't obey people's wishes, and the concubines don't fight, and only give birth to a princess, but the Queen of Han, who was despised by Xuan Ye, gave birth to a prince instead.
Putting aside the humility of the Wang family, Xuan Ye is still looking forward to this son.
Therefore, the baptism ceremony of the eighteenth elder brother was held very grandly. Moreover, Xuan Ye has already ordered the palace to prepare a full moon banquet for his young son, this is the youngest son in his life, so he naturally cherishes it more.
On the day of the third baptism, Su Curtain went to see, the eighteenth elder brother was eight pounds and two taels, and his crying was extremely loud, and he looked like a healthy and raised child!
Su Curtain met the concubine Guerjia at the baptism ceremony of the eighteenth elder brother.
An eighteen-year-old woman wants to know that she is green and tender, and Xuan Ye's taste is picky...... Therefore, the concubine must be a very beautiful woman. [30216012 Qing Palace promised Qing Palace Promise] 302 first Qing Palace promised 69
And the appearance of Xiao is like ...... Sure enough, just as Su Curtain guessed, the eyebrows, eyes, mouth, nose, and cheeks are like a "little Su Curtain"! As soon as the concubines appeared, they came to participate in the blessings of the three clans. I don't even go into secretly saying "like", "too similar...... Something like that.
The face of the concubine is six or seven points like a Su curtain!! And the gentle bearing of the concubine is also three or four points like her! So at first glance. I'm afraid that people who are not familiar with Su Curtain may admit the mistake!!
Merely. Su Lian had to admit that the delicate face of the concubine still revealed the youthfulness of a girl who had not disappeared...... At first glance, I know that I am much younger than Su Blind!! Although the Su curtain is extremely well maintained, the youthfulness has been worn away with the passage of time.
It's just that he is a concubine, her body is thinner than Su Lai, her chin is slightly pointed, her face is full of weakness of postpartum loss, and she needs the support of the palace maid when she walks. It's just that she can't hide her delicate state, but the etiquette can be called dignified and elegant, without losing any identity, nor showing any arrogance, with five points of tenderness in her eyebrows and eyes, and her every move is the demeanor of everyone's ladies!
Even Su Lian had to sigh secretly: The good upbringing of the family!
He Concubine stepped forward slowly, made a proper salute to Su Lai, and said, "Su Guifei Wanfu Jin'an." ”
Su Lian nodded "um" and said "no courtesy". He said kindly: "The weakness of the concubine after giving birth is actually completely comparable to not having to come in person." ”
He Concubine lowered her head and coughed twice, and said softly: "Matthew's medical skills are excellent. The concubine's body is much better. ”
At this time, it was almost noon, and the concubine came late, but there were also those who came later than her - Xuan Ye hadn't come yet! He said before that he would personally participate in the baptism ceremony of this youngest son, but there was no shadow, and he brought all the family Fujin and clan girls in Ruhai Hall.
After seeing the concubine, she stepped aside, and Xuan Ye said that she was quiet, but it was true.
Today. The most unhappy thing is Fen'er, she was forced by Su Curtain to come to participate in the eighteenth brother's washing. With a depressed face, he said, "Why hasn't Khan Ama come yet?" ”
Su Lian smiled and said, "It's autumn." Naturally, government affairs are busy. He also instructed the eighteenth elder brother's nanny: "Go and tell Wang Guiren that she doesn't have to worry." ”
Fen'er immediately smiled and said, "Yes, don't worry, Khan Ama may not be able to come!" ”
Su Lian couldn't help but glared at her fiercely, this girl was used to being open-mouthed, and in front of many Fujin and clan Gegege, she didn't even care about her mouth.
Sitting in the main hall of Ruhai Hall, the clan Fujin and the nobles gathered together, but it seemed that this place was extremely small. Ruhai Hall is indeed a small courtyard, there is a front yard with a shot at the courtyard door, the courtyard is quite spacious, but this house, the front is the main hall and the two sides lead to the second room, in order to accommodate visitors, the Wang family can only move to the back hall of the back to live temporarily. [30216012 Qing Palace promised Qing Palace Promise] 302 first Qing Palace promised 69
Su Lian lowered his head and drank half a cup of tea, only to see Wei Zhu come to say that Xuan Ye had already gotten up and came over here.
All of a sudden, everyone immediately tidied up their clothes, looked happy, and according to their status, they walked out of Ruhai Hall, lined up, and greeted Xuan Ye's arrival.
In fact, the three baptism ceremonies are nothing more than the same as the old, and the process is not much different from washing the eighteen daughters of the emperor, but there are more people, and the place is smaller, so it looks lively.
And the only thing that is strange to Su Curtain is the behavior of the concubine, Su Curtain originally thought that he and the concubine came to support his body because he wanted to meet Xuan Ye and fall in love! But after the whole washing three times, the concubines and concubines stood quietly in an inconspicuous place, without saying a word, like an invisible person, until the end of the three washings, Xuan Ye did not find out about the existence of the concubine, but he only symbolically asked about the situation of the eighteenth daughter, and told her to take good care of the eighteenth daughter, and told her to take care of herself, and it was over.
He Concubine only obediently said yes and didn't say much.
After washing the three, Xuan Ye returned to Chunhui Hall to approve the folds, and only came over at night, Su Curtain held a slightly hot Yanghe Spring Green Tea to him, Xuan Ye blew hot air, looked at Su Curtain and said, "Madam, what do you think of Xiao Eighteen?" ”
Su Lian thought slightly, this little eighteen is obviously not the eighteenth daughter of the emperor, but the eighteenth elder brother, so he said casually: "It's quite healthy." ”
Xuan Ye smiled: "If you like it, I will raise it for you!" ”
Su Lian was stunned for a moment, "Raise it for me?!" After speaking, Su Lian hurriedly shook his head, "I don't want it!" It's not like I don't have children to raise myself! Honghui is still on my knees! ”
Xuan Ye smiled and said, "I know that there is no shortage of Chenghuan under your knees, but Hongyan is a little older, and he will miss his biological mother from time to time." But Xiao Eighteen is different, if he is raised by your side from infancy, he will naturally only be filial to you wholeheartedly in the future. ”
Xuan Ye's intentions, Su Lian understood it, how much he hated Wang Guiren! Then he pouted and said: "Xuan Ye, you know, my child, others don't want to get involved, but I don't want other people's children!" ”
Xuan Ye was stunned, and couldn't help sighing: "I'm just afraid you're boring......" said and shook his head, "Forget it, after I return to the palace, I will carefully choose a decent adoptive mother for Xiao Eighteen." ”
Decent adoptive mother? In Xuan Ye's eyes, Wang Guiren is an undignified biological mother.
thought that the two elder brothers born in front of Wang Guiren were also taken to other concubines to raise...... She gave birth to fifteen elder brothers, Jin Chang was here, gave birth to sixteen elder brothers, Jin nobles, and gave birth to eighteen elder brothers-but Xuan Ye did not promote her as a concubine. I wonder if Wang will be disappointed?
Wang Guiren's attitude towards concubines before was obviously that he didn't regard himself as a person with a lower rank than concubines...... In this way, it can be seen that the Wang family is only afraid of the idea of still sitting and giving birth to a son and being able to raise the eighteenth elder brother in person. After all, there is a precedent for this matter, and the fourteenth elder brother born to Concubine De was raised under her own knees.
The wish is disappointed, I wonder how the Wang family will react? Su Lian couldn't help but show a smile watching the play.
When autumn was strong, Xuan Ye finally drove back to Beijing.
Sixi helped Su Lian pack up the big bags and small bags of things, and stuffed five big cars...... What made Su Curtain speechless was that even the pillow, quilt, tent, and even her gong bucket were brought!!
Su Curtain looked at the list of salutes, sat in the concubine's best carriage, and couldn't help but say: "Sixi, I'm just going to live in the palace for half a year, and I still have to move back to the garden after half a year!" ”
Sixi said: "These are the things you are used to, especially the strangely shaped pillow, the slave can remember accurately, you said, if you change the pillow, you will not be able to sleep!" ”
Strangely shaped pillows...... It's the kind that is a little too high in the future and lowers the back of the head...... It conforms to the physiological curve of the human spine, so it is very comfortable. It's just that this thing, as long as there are drawings, the needlework in the palace can be made in minutes, where can I bring it?! But what made Su Lian speechless more than the pillow was, of course, that Gong bucket, and she was embarrassed to point it out.
As soon as he returned to the palace, the eunuch who commanded the Sixi Dynasty put all kinds of things into the Tishun Hall one by one, and Xuan Ye had just settled down, so he went to Ningshou Palace to brush the Queen Mother.
Now the role of the Queen Mother should only be to let Xuan Ye brush up on filial piety.
Xuan Ye came back from Ningshou Palace, his face was cloudy, and he looked like he was about to thunder and rain.
Su Lian couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?" "-The Queen Mother shouldn't dare to offend Xuan Ye's son, right?
Xuan Ye snorted angrily, and immediately counted the Queen Mother like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, "If it weren't for the fame of the ages, I wouldn't want to go to Ningshou Palace in the future!" It's so old, won't you be able to live a little bit? For forty years, did I eat or use it? Why are you still so dissatisfied again and again!! ”
"Forehead......" Su Lian blinked, Xuan Ye's resentment seemed to be quite big! How did the Queen Mother touch his brows.
Xuan Ye looked at Su Lian's curious eyes and said, "Guess what she said?" ”
Su Lian shook his head: "I'm not the roundworm in the queen mother's stomach!" ”
Xuan Ye sarcastically said: "She said that she was empty under her knees and wanted Xiao Eighteen to be raised in Ningshou Palace!" ”
Su Lian touched his nose, in fact, if it was an ordinary grandmother, it was not too much to have such a wish. It's a pity who called the Queen Mother not Xuan Ye's own mother? q。.。
