Shen Wan pushed his hand away and smiled: "Haven't you sobered up yet?" If you say anything nonsense early in the morning, it is important to wash up and clean up. ”

Rong Ruo took her hand again and said, "I'm very sober, I just want to say a word to you." ”

"You say, what kind of kid's temper is this?" Shen Wan looked at him gently, not asking why he didn't return last night, and knew that Rong Ruo would not go anywhere else except the mansion, he was not a person who lingered in Chang, when they met in Jiangnan, they didn't know each other's identities, and he knew that he was a prostitute, and he didn't dislike it at all.

Rong Ruo said affectionately: "What you don't want to do, I will never let people wronged you, my mother comes to you from time to time to find your trouble, you bear with it, as long as we don't let go, she will stop making trouble a few more times, I won't let them take the child away." ”

Shen Wan said curiously: "How did you think of saying these words?" Last night, ......" she said and stopped, still didn't want to ask, reached out and took off the clothes on Rong Ruo's body, and the girl under her sent him a clean court dress, put it on for him with her hands and feet, and said softly, "If I don't believe you, how can I come to the capital with you?" If I don't believe you, how will I live in this courtyard? I am no longer the Shen Wan I used to be, and it was rare for me to look back and smile at those people's daughters in the past, but I disdain them, but I look down on them. And you are to me, don't say that the years are quiet now, but they are bumpy and rugged, and I also live and die together. After all, your mother is the mother who gave birth to you and raised you, and loves you as much as I love Fusen, you can love me and care for me, don't turn your face with her ruthlessly, how can you stand tall in the world? ”

Rong Ruo sighed: "It's a pity that she doesn't know that you are so good, she always says that you are not in front of me, and she still tries to break us up to this day." ”

When he said these words, the baby in the swaddling clothes cried loudly, and Shen Wan smiled and wanted to leave, "I'm going to serve the little master, you hurry up and eat two mouthfuls of food and go to the court, one is more than half a day's work, it's really better to send you on a mission, I'll go with you all over the world, and I'm still at ease." ”

The young mother flashed back to the inner room to take care of her son, Rong Ruo cleaned up here, the hour was not early, he had to rush to the Qianqing Gate to go to the court, come in to see her son, and said goodbye to Shen Wan briefly, and left in a hurry.

However, after entering the court, it is inevitable to meet his father, he is a subordinate in the officialdom, and he is a son in terms of human ethics, but he can't see it but turns a blind eye, and he has to come forward to greet him. ”

Rong Ruo leaned over and listened, there were other officials to relieve the siege, and he was taken away with a smile, and the emperor arrived after a short time, and everything was mainly about court affairs.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Rong Ruo was called in by the emperor again, the other adults dispersed, Mingzhu walked in front, Suo Etu suddenly came over, and said with a smile: "Ming Xiang can have leisure, the capital drunken immortal building has a new wine, yesterday sent to the house a few jars to honor me, I am worried that there is no confidant." ”

The two of them are kind to each other, and they are secretly fighting to the death, Mingzhu naturally will not do such an eye-catching thing as going to Suo Etu's mansion to drink, but just smiled politely: "The old mother at home is not very good, and she has been serving by her side for the past few days. ”

Suo Etu hurriedly said: "In this case, I should go to the house to visit the old lady." ”

Naturally, this will be rejected by Mingzhu, the two of them walked a few more steps, Suo Etu finally explained his intentions, it was originally for the four mothers in the palace to be pregnant with the emperor's heir, and now the imperial concubine and Wen Guifei are pregnant, if they give birth to the prince, it will be very helpful to their respective futures, especially the imperial concubine, if she gives birth to the prince, she may enter the middle palace in less than two years, so that the prince is not the only one.

Mingzhu naturally knew what Suo Etu was planning, but he didn't understand what he was going to do with him, so he wasn't afraid that he would participate in front of the emperor, but after thinking about it, he just mentioned it, and he didn't say anything rebellious, and he couldn't grasp any handles.

"Concubine De Niangniang is always favored, this fourth pregnancy, if she has another son, and there are three children under her knees to support her, the future is limitless." Mingzhu changed the conversation, no longer pointing at the imperial concubine and Wen Guifei, and said with a smile, "Besides, Lord Suo doesn't know?" The imperial concubine's mother is very unreliable, Uncle Guo is looking for famous doctors, and colleagues in the DPRK and China all know that Master Suo wants to help him? ”

Suo Etu said: "Concubine De Niangniang was born in a slight cold, and she has been favored for many years, but it is only the current climate, can't Ming Xiang see her future?" Besides, how about the favorite concubine? Concubine Taizu Abahai, Concubine Taizongchen, the first emperor and the queen of filial piety, which one is not a favorite concubine, what happened to them, and their son is ......"

"Master Suo, I have a lot to say today." Mingzhu looked at Suo Etu suspiciously, as Suo Etu's person, he would never say such explicit words to his political enemies, and always felt that he had put a trap somewhere waiting for someone to drill, Mingzhu thought twice, only interrupted these words, hugged his fists and said, "The old mother at home is waiting for me to go back to serve the decoction, and after my mother recovers, I will prepare a good tea and talk with Master Suo." ”

Mingzhu left in a hurry, and Suo Etu stood still and watched him leave, with a little smug contempt on his face, and a soft sneer in his mouth: "Cowardly as a mouse." ”

In the blink of an eye, in May, the emperor set up a firearms battalion of the Han army, and the Eight Banners of Manchuria, Mongolia, and the Eight Banners of the Han Army became stronger and stronger. Since Xuanye was in power, he has made great efforts to govern the country, successively captured Aobai, pacified the three feudatories, and now goes all out to recover Taiwan, and resists the Tsarist Russian Rakshasa in the north, the national strength is getting stronger and stronger, and the Qing Dynasty is moving towards its peak step by step.

In Cining Palace, the Empress Dowager has long been not interfering in the affairs of the court, and occasionally listens to the emperor talk about the affairs of the court, even if she points a few words, she will never influence the emperor in major matters, but often sighs: "I only have a son of your Amma, he died young, I thought I was a person who had no blessings for children and grandchildren, but now you are good, Fuquan Changning is good, you have given birth to so many children and grandchildren, I can't recognize all the children, God really cares for me, and I am healthy and long enough to watch you create a foundation for all generations, when I entered the customs, I took you Ama with me, and every day I was worried that the Han people would drive us out again, year after year, just like that. ”

On this day, Fuquan was also there, he was the most good person to make his grandmother happy, so he took the words away in a few sentences, and glanced at Xuan Ye again, saying that he was going to Gubeikou to hunt in June, and asked the imperial grandmother if she agreed.

Mama Su Mala smiled: "Why did you ask the Empress Dowager about this?" If the emperor and the princes want to go, they just go. But when he said this, he remembered something and smiled at his master as if he understood, "No wonder, the imperial concubine is about to give birth in June." ”

The Empress Dowager bowed: "It's not appropriate, the imperial concubine is about to give birth, you will go for at least ten days, how anxious you are." ”

Fuquan said: "When Concubine Rong was about to give birth, the emperor was also hunting outside, as long as he came back before the day of the imperial doctor's calculation." It's really that if you don't go now, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and there are other things to do in autumn, just these few days. ”

The Empress Dowager glared at him, Fuquan didn't dare to say more, and looked at Xuan Ye again and said, "The emperor really wants to go?" ”

Xuan Ye's eyes were full of meaning, and he said to the imperial grandmother: "Hunting is one of them, naturally there are other things, the imperial brother is just coaxing the imperial grandmother to be happy, and he doesn't want to say it." ”

The Empress Dowager sighed: "Since it is a major event in the imperial court, you can go, I am in the palace, and Su Mala will also go to Chengqian Palace to watch the imperial concubine this time." It's not easy for her, it's been so easy to have a child over the years, and now she's the deputy queen, so she can't care less. Go early and come back early. ”

In this way, the news that the emperor was going to Gubeikou to hunt in early June spread inside and outside the palace, and everyone also knew that the imperial concubine was going to give birth in June. But counting the days, the emperor has been accompanying the imperial concubine in Chengqian Palace almost every other day since he returned from Wutai Mountain, and he has never seen the imperial concubine so close for so many years, and sometimes even the imperial concubine complained to Qinglian in private: "I'm getting uglier and uglier, isn't the emperor tired of seeing me?" I think he's bored with it. ”

Among the four mothers, the imperial concubine was the first to give birth, followed by the Yi concubine in August, the German concubine in September, and Wen Guifei was even later, and now the fetus in Wen Guifei's womb has also been formed, and it is no longer as unstable as before. Although the imperial concubine was shaky, the imperial doctor was confident that she would be able to give birth to term, Concubine Yi and Concubine De had always been healthy, and everyone began to speculate that the four of them had children and daughters.

In the Xianfu Palace, the female dependents of the Niu Hulu family came to visit the concubine and told her some ways of childbirth, Wen Guifei was reluctant to take care of her family in the past, but now because she is pregnant, she has nothing to rely on in the palace, so she is very attached to her family. Ah Ling'a naturally sent people to coax the concubine with a lot of courtesy, so as to alleviate the previous embarrassment.

Today, sitting and gossiping, talking about things outside the palace, the heads of several major families are used as talking points, and when the appointed time for the ladies to leave, Concubine Wen called Dongyun: "Go and invite the nobles of Juezen to come over." ”

Juechan's family will occasionally go to the main hall to see Wen Guifei recently, she has a pregnancy and does not have to worry about the emperor's favor, naturally she does not have to pester people every day to give advice, today suddenly called her, Juechan thought that Wen Guifei was asking for something, and when she sat down, she heard Guifei say: "Listen to my sister-in-law, Mrs. Mingzhu often peesters that Shen Wan, and wants to bring her grandson back to the mansion to raise, and she has been making trouble for a long time, but Nalan Rong has been deadlocked if she does not agree." ”

Juechan didn't expect Concubine Wen to say this, and when he heard that Rong Ruo stubbornly protected Shen Wan's mother and son, he couldn't help laughing: "Madame still doesn't understand this son, what he decides, which one can be influenced, if it can be swayed, with Madame's wrist, there is no Shen Wan for a long time." Madam is probably also a bogeyman, I am afraid that she will really hurt Shen Wan and provoke their mother and son to break up. ”

Concubine Wen Guifei didn't bother to think about the Nalan family, so she just smiled and said, "The emperor is going to Gubeikou to hunt in early June. ”

Juechan responded: "The concubine knows." ”

Concubine Wen smiled enthusiastically and confidently: "Didn't I promise you to let you meet Shen Wan?" At that time, he said that when the emperor went hunting, he would have a chance. ”
