Just after the New Year, on the sixth day of the first month, Zhang Jia Chuzhen was born prematurely. gave birth to a little Gege, and the mother and daughter were safe.

It was in the New Year that Xuan Ye was also very happy to have such a fortunate event, and he was greatly rewarded. However, in half a month, she gave Xiao Gege the milk name "Qiongjiu", and renamed her sister "Qiongju".

"The emperor has given such names to the two little Geges born to Zhen Changzai, which is really gracious." Mi Yi pursed her lips and said: "Qiong Ju and Qiong Jiu both have the meaning of gifts, doesn't this mean that the two Gege born by Zhen Chang are both beautiful gifts for the emperor." ”

"What's the matter, even if it's a gift, it's just Gege." Mu Hui said disdainfully: "No matter how favored Zhen Chang is, he can't go beyond our mother." What's more, if it weren't for the emperor's reluctance to suffer from childbirth, our Yikun Palace might have to add a few more elder brothers. What our mother is carrying in her belly is a little brother. Look at it again, the fifth elder brother, the ninth elder brother, the eleventh elder brother, and even Jun Yao Gege, they are all treasures in the emperor's heart, take care of them. Jane is always there, it's nothing at all. ”

Chunxi has always cared whether others are favored or not, after all, no matter who is in this palace, she will not be favored more than her. However, sometimes Chunxi will feel uncomfortable in her heart, watching other women give birth to children for the men she loves, one after another, she always feels uncomfortable. However, she couldn't say it, let alone let Xuan Ye know.

Being in the royal family, it is necessary to spread the branches. A full house of children and grandchildren is the best. What's more, Zhaosheng has also reminded Chunxi more than once in the past not to be jealous, otherwise it will always be himself who suffers. Over time, Chunxi doesn't care so much about who is favored and who is pregnant and has children. It's just that Mi Yi and Mu Hui are still a little indignant.

Speaking of which, Zhen Changzai has already given birth to three children, but she is still only in the position of Changzai. From this point of view, Zhen Chang has no weight in the emperor's mind. Otherwise, it would have been long overdue to get into her place. As soon as Mi Yi thought of this, she smiled unconsciously, and said to Mu Hui: "It's still our mother who is blessed." ”

"No matter how blessed this palace is, it doesn't let the two of you talk about it all day long." Chunxi lifted the curtain from the house and came out, still holding two big wool clothes in her hands.

"Hurry up and send these two clothes to the fifth elder brother and the ninth elder brother. Recently, it has been very cold, and I asked them to add more clothes. Chun Xi instructed Mi Yi again: "Fifth elder brother, he is older, and he has lived alone in the five institutes of Qianxi for so many years, so he has long been used to it." But Brother Jiu has just moved over, I'm afraid that he is a little uncomfortable, so you must work hard. Whoever is not shrewd at the bottom will be removed. There are no stupid minions waiting around Brother Jiu. ”

Mi Yi was ordered to leave, and Chun Xicai instructed Mu Hui again: "You go to the treasury to pick up a few good things, and accompany the palace to Chuxiu Palace to visit Zhen Changzai." She gave birth to Xiao Gege, and in the middle of the year, she still needs to visit her and send her some good ones. ”

Mu Hui was a little unhappy, but she could only do it.

Zhang Jia Chuzhen gave birth to a little Gege for less than half a month, and the fetus was also moving, and soon gave birth to a little brother.

During the year, a son and a daughter were added in a row, Xuan Ye was very happy, and the banquet made everyone happy with him.

Jing Hao and Zhang Jia Chuzhen are still in confinement, so they naturally can't participate in the feast. However, the rest of the concubines were very happy. On weekdays, Xuan Ye is busy with government affairs, and he rarely comes to the harem recently. Even if they come, they mostly go to Yikun Palace to visit Chunxi, or to Chuxiu Palace to sit with Zhang Jia Chuzhen, or to Changchun Palace to see Jinghao. The rest of the people, for a month, it is difficult to see Xuan Ye. Even during the Chinese New Year, for various reasons, he was far away from Xuan Ye, and in the dim light, even Xuan Ye's face couldn't be seen clearly.

However, this time the banquet was different. At Chunxi's suggestion, Xuan Ye and the harem concubines sat at the same table, even if they didn't sit next to Xuan Ye, they ate at the same table, and they got a lot closer.

"The concubines toast the emperor with a cup, congratulations to the emperor for having a daughter and a son, double happiness." Chun Xi took the lead in raising his glass and looked at Xuan Ye who was sitting beside him.

When Xuan Ye heard this, he also smiled, raised his wine glass and drank with Chunxi.

Chun Xi opened his head, and soon there were people competing to toast, and for a while, Xuan Ye drank seven or eight glasses in a row, and he was a little drunk in a trance.

The sky began to snow, and the flakes fell and slapped on everyone's shoulders.

"Ruixue Mega Year, good sign." Yunyue looked at the snowflakes in the sky and couldn't help but say: "This year will definitely be smooth and rainy, and there will be no worries about last year." ”

Xuan Ye remembered that he had been on the expedition last year, and he had been going for several months, and he had indeed worked hard. If Yunyue's words are really answered this year, it will be really good. Then he also said to Yunyue: "Guifei has worked hard, my harem can be so stable, and last year I was able to go out with confidence, and it was also your greatest credit, Guifei." I am very pleased, I would like to give you a drink, and I will show my gratitude to you. ”

Yunyue smiled gently: "The concubines don't dare to be the concubines, and sharing the worries of the emperor is within the concubine's responsibility." ”

"Sister Yun is humble." Chun Xi smiled and pierced: "Sister Yun, drink this cup quickly, we are all looking forward to the emperor's toast." ”

Yun Yue blushed suddenly, raised her wine glass very embarrassed, and drank with Xuan Ye.

The rest of the people also sat there with a smile, or toasted, or talked to themselves. It's more lively than the usual feast.

I don't know who proposed to enforce the wine order, many concubines in the palace are from big families, and they may not all be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they are quite passable.

It's just that when it was Lan Xin's turn, because Lan Xin didn't learn well, she couldn't continue, so she had to drink, and she was inevitably a little unhappy in her heart, so she found an excuse to leave early.

In the second half of the night, everyone was drunk. Xuan Ye stayed behind to sleep, and the rest of the people also dispersed.

The Qianqing Palace was very lively, but the Changchun Palace seemed a little deserted.

During the Chinese New Year, I couldn't have fun with everyone, so I could only sit alone in the room and gather around the fire.

Even so, Jing Hao was still very happy. She held the baby in her arms and smiled from ear to ear. Shake it gently, and wait until the baby is asleep before tiptoeing into the cradle.

Jing Hao and Xin'er sat by the fire and chatted about the banquet held in the palace today.

"It's not uncommon for this palace to have such a banquet, and besides, this banquet was held because of this palace. If the palace doesn't go, they will naturally rejoice. But it doesn't matter, there is still a little brother in this palace. "Getting what you want is the happiest thing for Jinghao.

Xin'er also said: "They just took today's opportunity to see the emperor and want to win the emperor's love." The slave maid heard that in the past month, even the king promised not to see the emperor a few times. Come to think of it, the emperor is tired of her beauty and no longer favors her. ”

Speaking of Wang Meiyu, Jing Hao remembered that when Wang Meiyu entered the palace, she went to curry favor with her and buy her, who would have thought that Wang Meiyu would not appreciate it, but mixed up with Zhang Jia Chuzhen's cheap maid.

"A little promise, how can you look beautiful?" Jing Hao disdainfully: "She's just a short-sighted person, and she followed Zhen Chang in that who had nothing." If she had followed the palace, she would have entered the position of Chang and sat on an equal footing with Zhang Jia Chuzhen. Now it's good that Zhang Jia Chuzhen couldn't take care of her because she was pregnant and gave birth, so she lost her grace. It is also well deserved. ”

Xin'er smiled evilly: "Niangniang said yes." The king promised to tell the difference between these, but he was just an ordinary man who was extremely stupid. She naturally couldn't see the situation clearly, otherwise she would have been better off with Concubine Yi than she was in now. ”

Jing Hao sneered: "Concubine Yi? It's just a beautiful skin. If it wasn't for others helping her, how could Queen Xiaoyi be defeated? She just relied on someone who was willing to help her, give her advice, and do things for her. Actually, she doesn't have much ability. However, there are some fox tricks to win the emperor's heart. Now, the palace has given birth to a little brother, and the concubine is just around the corner. When the time comes, Concubine Yi will not dare to be arrogant in front of the palace. ”

Speaking of Chunxi, Jing Hao thought of Tong Ruohua who was attached to Chunxi. Unconsciously raised a smiling face, and said: "This palace and Hua Concubine entered the palace on the same day, and they were crowned nobles on the same day, and they won the emperor's favor almost at the same time, and later they were promoted to concubines at the same time." Now, the palace has finally taken the lead, and Mr. has gone down to Brother. In the future, look at how Hua Concubine still shows off her might, and she looks amazing. ”

has endured Tong Ruohua's rudeness and rudeness for many years, and Jing Hao has had enough. She thinks she is everyone's best girl, and she doesn't have to be in the company of an unruly person like Tong Ruohua, and she doesn't need to worry about her. But the last time in Changchun Garden, she had a conflict with Tong Ruohua, and slapped Tong Ruohua hard. Now that I think about it, she really shouldn't be so hard, she should fight to the death to get rid of her hatred.

"Rest assured, Niangniang has now successfully given birth to a little brother, and with the backing of the prince and Lord Suo Etu, why should Niangniang worry about tomorrow?" Xin'er said with a smile: "Niangniang only needs to wait patiently, and soon she will be prosperous, rich, powerful or something, and she will come to Niangniang." ”

Jing Hao knows that among the concubines in this palace, no matter what the family is, after all, they still have to have heirs to climb higher and higher. Just look at Lan Xin and know that a palace maid can become one of the four concubines in more than ten years, so she is noble and gave birth to an elder brother, so she is naturally better than Lan Xin. Even, it is better than Niu Hulu Yunyue, who is now ranked as a noble concubine.

Only the higher she climbs, the higher the possibility that the crown prince will ascend the throne in the future, and she will become the queen mother.

She is not rare after the seal, what is rare is that after a hundred years of Xuanye, the crown prince ascended the throne, and her status must not be lower than any of the current concubines. Even Niu Hulu Yunyue and Guo Luo Luo have to step on it.

As the master and servant were talking, they heard movement outside the house. Jing Hao knew that Du Ruo had left the table and came back, so he walked to the window and looked outside, and asked Xin'er to go out to inquire about the situation at the banquet.

Although they said that they didn't care, they still wanted to know how they spent tonight.
