Chapter 106: Death in childbirth
It was too late, and Pei Yao wanted to think about it again, so in the face of the crown princess's proposal to give the child to Fang Yu to raise, he didn't answer for a while.
And outside the Zhuangzi, Zhou Shuren's birth was indeed a little difficult, and he didn't wait for news until Pei Yao went to bed.
Look at this, I guess there is still a toss.
Sure enough, it wasn't until the early morning of the next day that news came that Zhou had given birth to a daughter.
Hong Zheng didn't dare to delay, woke up Pei Yao and the crown princess, and informed him of the news.
After hearing this, Pei Yao's face relaxed a little, and there was a shallow look of happiness in his eyes.
"Okay, daughter, even if you are so lonely, even if you have both children and daughters, how about children? It's been so long, and nothing happened, right? ”
"Back to Your Highness, the second girl is safe and healthy, everything is fine!" Hong Zheng replied with a smile.
The rules of Daqi, except for the emperor's children who are called princes and princesses as soon as they are born, no matter who they are, they are called sons and girls uniformly, and they can change their titles unless they have a reward.
Of course, this is also what the rich eunuchs call it, and the ordinary people don't call it like this, they are called a big man and a second man, and the big girl and the second lady are called that.
Hearing this, the crown princess said softly.
"The concubine saw that His Royal Highness hadn't slept well this night, and now the stone in her heart has fallen, and another person has been added to the palace, and the full moon banquet of the second girl has to be held well."
"Well, the misfortune is not for the innocent heirs, although the Zhou family is at fault, but the child is not guilty, and it should be treated equally, so let's do it according to the rules of the eldest son."
Pei Yao nodded, remembered something again, and paused before continuing.
"Speaking of which, I haven't given the eldest prince a name for so many years, and he is also three years old this year, so he will think of a suitable one in a few days, and he will take a name and enter the clan jade plate seriously."
There are many children in the royal family who die young, and they are generally named when they are one year old, and they are given a tooth order, but there are also many who are named when they are in their teens, or even when they get married.
However, in that case, girls are the majority, and boys are generally named when they reach the age of enlightenment and reading, that is, about four years old.
The eldest prince is also special, after all, there was a temple master before who said that he had a catastrophe within three years old, so he was afraid that he would not be able to live, so he didn't choose a name.
For these little things, the crown princess naturally had no opinion, nodded her head, and asked about the more important ones.
"Your Highness, the second girl will be brought back today? Zhou. What is Your Highness going to do? ”
Whether it is raised on the Zhuangzi, or whether it is reduced to a slave and doing things on the Zhuangzi, this is different.
But when she talked about this matter, Hong Zheng took over the conversation first and bowed his head.
"The slave forgot to report to His Royal Highness and Niangniang, Zhou Shuren had a difficult birth when she gave birth, and after giving birth to the second girl, the blood collapsed, and the person who came to report said that Zhou Shuren was gone."
As soon as they heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of Pei Yao and the crown princess.
Neither of them expected this to happen.
Because even if Zhou Shuren was sent to Zhuangzi outside, but she was pregnant, she was not treated badly at all, the degree of food and clothing, the imperial doctor asked for the pulse on time, and there were arrangements, and she was fine before, why did she finally have a difficult birth.
However, it was a little slow, thinking that it took a long time for Zhou to give birth to this child, it was also a fact that it was difficult to give birth.
"Since the person is gone, let's bury it properly, you go and take the child back in person." Pei Yao said in a deep voice.
Hong Zheng nodded and immediately retreated.
After he left, Pei Yao looked at the sky outside, it was already dark, and it was time to get up and go to the court for half an hour.
Now I'm sleepy anyway, so I just get up.
The crown princess waited for dressing, so she told Min Si to prepare breakfast, but was stopped by Pei Yao.
"Gu went to Biluozhai for breakfast today, and by the way, I talked to the Fang family about raising children, so you don't have to be busy."
Originally, the crown princess thought that she would have to wait for everyone to come and ask for peace later, but she didn't expect Pei Yao to say it in person.
However, this child is a daughter, although Fang Yu is favored, she is a duckweed without the support of her mother's family, and she is not a threat to her, so the princess did not stop her.
nodded, waited for Pei Yao to get dressed, and sent the person out of Wutong Garden.
Bi Luo Zhai.
Pei Yao wanted to come over for breakfast, so naturally someone took the first step to inform him.
At this moment, it was not enough for Fang Yu to get up, so it was Qingrong who went into the house and hurriedly woke people up.
"Come for breakfast?" Fang Yu pinched his temples with a headache.
The heart says that this is not a toss.
But thinking about it on another side, it's also a good thing that the bad guy is thinking about her when he comes.
So I quickly cleaned up and got up to pick up the car.
As soon as she finished it and went out of the door, she saw that Pei Yao had already come, so she saluted at the door.
"Concubine to His Highness."
"Excuse me." Pei Yao waved his hand, and said to the surrounding minions, "You all stand down, just have Fang Liangdi here to serve." ”
As soon as they heard this, the people of Biluozhai looked at each other, but they did not dare to disobey the order, and immediately retreated.
Seeing this, Fang Yu estimated that Pei Yao had something to say to her, so he invited someone into the house and closed the door.
"Your Highness came over this morning, what do you have to tell the concubine?"
Because he couldn't see Pei Yao's joy and anger, he couldn't predict whether it was a good thing or a bad thing, and Fang Yu was still a little apprehensive in his heart.
Pei Yao glanced at her before he said calmly, "Half an hour ago, Zhuangzi came up to report that the Zhou family had given birth and was a daughter. ”
The people in the front yard and the main courtyard are all strict-mouthed, and the Weiyang Pavilion doesn't spread the news indiscriminately, Fang Yu hasn't been paying attention to Zhou Shuren's affairs recently, but he doesn't know the news.
"The concubine is only counting the days, it seems that the Zhou family is about to give birth, but the mother and daughter are safe?" Fang Yu asked softly.
She didn't say anything to congratulate, after all, she didn't say anything when she looked at Pei Yao without a smile on her face, and she felt that it was inappropriate to say that.
Pei Yao shook his head, "The child is healthy and safe, the Zhou family is gone, and Gu has already sent someone to take the child back to the palace." ”
With this statement, Fang Yu couldn't figure out Pei Yao's thoughts.
Why aren't you happy if the child is fine, it can't be sad for the dead Zhou, right?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
So Fang Yu said tentatively, "It's also a good thing for the child to return to the palace and keep it in the palace, and it's always inconvenient to throw it on the Zhuangzi outside." ”
As soon as she said this, Pei Yao turned his head and stared at her tightly, and spoke in a very serious voice.
"Lone thinks that you have to find a suitable adoptive mother for this child, the crown princess thinks you are very good, and Lone also thinks that you can take on this matter, but Lone can't be strong, so I still ask your wishes, are you willing to raise Zhou's child?"
After saying this, it was Fang Yu's turn to be stunned.
Raising children? She raises?
After being stunned for a moment, he then looked at the look of the person in front of him, and saw that Pei Yao was full of solemnity, and he saw in his heart that Pei Yao was still interested in this child, and did not treat it differently because of Zhou's sake.
So if that's the case, why wouldn't she?
Right now, doesn't she just want to have a child and rely on more?
I am pregnant to give birth, not to mention when I can conceive, even if I am pregnant, it is difficult to give birth, why not send this child to the door.
So, after thinking for a moment, Fang Yu's gaze changed from surprise to calm and calm.
owes the body and said, "I can share the worries for His Royal Highness, and the concubine is willing." ”
