Chapter 239: Brother and Sister

Sure enough, the sky did not obey people's wishes, and in July, the Liu family gave birth to a daughter named Rongxi. Forrest gump

The daughter is healthy, but she is not a boy in the end, Mu Yanxu felt uncomfortable for a while, lamented for a long time, and had to comfort his wife who was slightly depressed because she didn't have a son.

"It's okay, my daughter is a caring little padded jacket, there's nothing bad about it, we're so old, it's a good thing to have a little girl, why bother thinking so much, no more, wait for Concubine Zhou and Sun Meiren to give birth, if you have a son, raise it in your name, our Daqing Dynasty will not be considered a successor."

Mu Yanxu's words of consolation, listening to Liu's ears, really didn't feel comforting, but at this time, she really hoped that the remaining two pregnant women could have a son, but her heart was sour, and Liu's didn't think about making her husband childless for life.

Even if Mu Yanxu is not the emperor, but only the eldest son of the Mu family, he must have a son.

When Gu Wan heard the news, she discussed it with Mu Qi, prepared a gift, and went to see the Liu family.

Liu's strength has eased up at this time, after all, it is the daughter born by himself, but he is a little unwilling, and he can't blame the girl, the nurse and the grandmother have already been prepared. It is all kinds of small clothes and mattresses, which are also made early.

It's just that I didn't know men and women at the time, and when I did it, there were two styles, and now one of them can only press the bottom of the box, Liu looked at the small clothes worn by the delicate boys, and his eyes were a little stagnant.

Gu Wan took Rong Xi from the nurse's hand with a smile, seeing that her eyes were still not open, her little face was blushing, although her skin was a little wrinkled, but she was really cute, and she smiled unconsciously: "Rong Xi looks like a sister-in-law." She will already be a beautiful princess in the future. ”

Liu suddenly came back to his senses, ashamed in his heart, and hurriedly took the child into his arms and checked it. The eyebrows and eyes also softened a little.

The queen was confined, but she did not pay attention to Concubine Zhou and Sun Meiren, and asked the imperial doctor to diagnose the pulse of peace every three days. The things used for the two pregnant women must be checked by the imperial doctor in advance to make sure that there is nothing unfavorable to the fetus mixed in, even the courtiers outside also say that the queen is virtuous and cares for the concubines.

However, in half a month, Concubine Zhou and Sun Meiren gave birth successively.

I don't know if the feng shui of the palace is not good. Or this group of women and Bodhisattvas are not pious enough, these two actually gave birth to daughters, and Sun Meiren's daughter was still sick and crooked, and she landed. It's the appearance of not being able to feed.

Not to mention Mu Yanxu, even the Liu family was disappointed. //..

Concubine Zhou and Sun Meiren are a little better, they are still young after all, as long as the emperor is not too old to give birth, then they still have hope.

The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, because the emperor was still childless, were awkward for a moment, but some people breathed a sigh of relief and continued to treat their daughters. Or the daughters of relatives pick up beautiful and take them to the palace to show off.

If the daughter enters the palace and becomes a man in one fell swoop, maybe she will be made the crown prince, the emperor's age is not young after all, you know. Mu Yanxu is more than 20 years older than his seventh brother Mu Yanzhao. Now although he is not old and frail, he has also begun to lose energy, and he often gets sick, and then looking at the relatively short life span of the Mu family, Mu Yanxu can live for more than ten years, which is already good, and if he doesn't give birth to an heir in a hurry, he will really get to the point where the lord and the country are suspicious, the minister is not attached, and the people do not believe it.

Hearing that two more princesses had been added to the palace, and no prince was born, Gu Wan hugged her brother and was silent.

Mu Yanzhao could only smile bitterly, but it was a good thing that a child was born in the palace, and he could finally see hope.

This time, the princes and ministers once again proposed to hire a lady as a concubine, Mu Yanxu and the Liu family did not refuse, and Liu Guifei entered the palace less than a year ago, and three more were hired into the palace. They are all daughters of a big family, one is the third daughter of the Tang family, who is outstanding in learning and was hired as a talented person, and two are a pair of cousins, the daughters of the Wu family, not for anything else, just because the Wu family has always had many sons, and Mrs. Wu gave birth to her sixth son at the age of forty.

Since he hired these beauties into the palace, Mu Yanxu's face always had a little inexplicable embarrassment.

Gu Wan was sad for the Liu family, and even a little pity for him, men in this era, especially the emperor, although there are many beautiful concubines, but they want to take concubines, and others force them to take concubines, that feeling is absolutely different, now people all over the world pay attention to Mu Yanxu's backyard, maybe he went to which concubine's dormitory one day, and immediately someone Pegasus spread outside the palace!

The emperor with a transparent backyard has all kinds of sorrows, which are really not understandable to outsiders, or being surrounded by beauties, which is not a good thing that makes people feel happy.

"Royal affairs, we can't take care of it, Wan'er rest assured, I will never be the same as my eldest brother." Mu Qi grabbed his wife's waist and teased her brother Liu'er who was crawling around on the couch with her.

Gu Wan looked at him seriously, couldn't help laughing, and nodded Brother Liu'er's shiny little nose, "That's not your credit, the first credit should be credited to our Brother Liu'er, if you don't keep your brother, you can hold on for a year or two, and you definitely can't last for ten or eight years." ”

Mu Qi frowned: "I'm just so untrustworthy?" ”

"It's not that you can't be trusted, it's your status that doesn't allow you to act willfully." Gu Wan exhaled and said with a smile, "I believe in you, but if you really want to be childless, the eldest brother will not sit idly by." ”

Don't look at Mu Yanxu treating Gu Wan well now, and can even say that one is good, but if Gu Wan didn't give birth to a son, he would definitely think of adding a few concubines to his younger brother's room, if Mu Qi is unwilling, Mu Yanxu probably won't blame him for loving his eldest brother, but will only complain about Gu Wan!

It can't be said that Mu Yanxu is wrong, after all, this is an era of concubines buying and selling, he sent a few concubines to Mu Qi, and the objects are almost the same, even Gu Wan can only admit gratitude.

Mu Qi pulled a strand of his wife's hair and twisted it around his fingertips, with a slight melancholy on his face: "...... Wan'er, we have been together for many years, and we have come through ups and downs, but I didn't know that you actually had uneasiness in your heart. ”

He sighed, and didn't say anything to guarantee, just smiled, "The law stipulates that a concubine cannot attack the lord, even if you don't give birth to a brother, I won't take a concubine, and I won't want a useless concubine." ”

His words were a little cold, but it made Gu Wan's heart soften for no reason, and he laughed: "At the beginning, my uncle insisted on agreeing on the law that the concubine cannot attack the lord, and it was really far-sighted, and it really made us happy as the women of the wife of the main family, otherwise, the main family of the world will have to worry about the status of their children, and the concubines of the world will probably have to move their minds crookedly, and they will not make trouble everywhere!" ”

It is a foregone conclusion that the queen will give birth to a daughter, it is useless to think about it, the rights and wrongs in the palace have little to do with the Seven Kings' Mansion in the end.

Just after April, there was good news from Dingzhou.

In winter, Bai Xuanqing, Luo Hongying, Ou and He jointly launched several major battles, the Dawa tribe lost consecutive battles, the nest was copied three times, and the strong man died a lot, after a winter, he ate all the stored grain, and Luo Hongying strengthened the defense, Mu Yanxu deliberately transferred the Zhenxi Army to the past, and the border was so difficult to prevent it from entering, and it was difficult to rob it.

This time the rebellion was completely defeated, Mu Yanxu naturally would not be polite, he would definitely open his mouth, and the established policy was that the Dawa clan would be a vassal, and from then on, the imperial court would begin to control the change of the leader of the Dawa clan.

Of course, this is not easy, after all, the Dawa tribe has not completely lost their combat effectiveness, but even if they fail to achieve their goal, they can at least scrape a layer of oil off the other party.
