A message came from the Duke Cheng'en's Mansion outside the palace, saying that the old lady was sick because of anger. As expected, the old lady found out about Ruyan... Wen Xi shook her head, and the old lady couldn't get out of bed this time. It was obvious that she was angry.
Not easy.
Today was the day for Ruyan's adoption. She originally planned to just keep a low profile, but when she saw that she was not adopting to Ling Zhu, but to Cong Wupin and Shizhong, she immediately refused and started making a fuss.
The old lady was noisy. The old lady was feeling a little better. She came out for a walk and saw Ruyan making a fuss. Only then did she realize that such a big thing had happened in the Cheng'en Palace! She immediately became very angry!
The old lady had many great-granddaughters, so she didn't care about this concubine, but she couldn't help but care that this great-granddaughter was actually pregnant! The old lady attached great importance to the rules, and she cursed her loudly and said many unpleasant words.
Ruyan has never been patient, so she couldn't bear the scolding and actually started fighting with the old lady.
The two men, one old and the other young, fell to the ground after pushing each other. The old lady also fell badly. Ruyan had a miscarriage. Guoru Wenxi expected that, given her temperament, sooner or later she would lose it.
Get that piece of meat!
After losing the child, Ruyan refused and started crying and making a fuss. The incident became known to everyone and made a fuss. Wenxi hid in her palace for most of the month and did not go out. When she went out, the concubines seemed to respect her but
Eyes with special meaning. Wen Xi was so depressed that she simply didn’t go out!
This matter was originally covered up tightly, but if Yan refused to cooperate, now we can't rush her to the fourth brother's place. We should first take her to Zakdan's house and keep her under strict supervision. Wait for the news.
Let’s talk about it later. Fortunately, the princesses of this generation are still young. After a few years, they have forgotten about this matter, and it should not hinder their marriage.
The date for the fourth elder brother's opening of the palace was also decided. On a good day in early February, he packed up his things, took his wife and concubines and left the palace.
Although Kangxi no longer allowed the fourth elder brother to come to pay his respects, during these days, Si Fujin came to pay his respects regardless of rain or shine. He was extremely filial in every aspect. Wen Xi could not help but feel sad. Before leaving, Wen Xi called Si Fujin and gave her another gift.
Several Zhuangzi said: "It will not be easy to go out in the future. If anything happens, just ask Aunt Wu to tell me."
Uranala nodded and asked carefully: "Then...Sister Ruyan, she——"
My stomach hurts when I mention Ruyan. Wenxi! She is so noisy! Wenxi waved her hand and said: "Don't worry about her. Now that she has had a miscarriage, there is no rush. We will wait for two years before we talk!" Why?
We have to wait until the rumors stop!
After hearing this, Uranala breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's a pity. After all, he is my child."
Wen Xi snorted coldly and said, "With her temperament, it's not surprising that she had a miscarriage!" Wen Xi is also very irritable now and can't go out. She originally planned to practice hard, but she didn't expect her practice to be stuck.
It's no use entering the space, so I'm not in a good mood.
Ulanara smiled and said: "It's a lot warmer in February, and the willow trees in the imperial garden have grown young leaves. Why don't you go out for a walk? It's better than being bored in the house."
Wen Xi was indeed a little bored. Because of Ruyan's incident, she had to stay in Chengqian Palace for a month. Yu Ludai also agreed and hurriedly pulled Wen Xi's arm, "Eniang, go ahead!"
It's an early spring morning, and it's still a little cold. Fortunately, the weather is fine today, and the sunshine is warm. Today is the first time since Si Age and Si Fujin have come to the palace to pay their respects. Naturally, they have to go first.
After greeting the Queen Mother, I came to Chengqian Palace.
Although Kangxi did not allow Yinzhen to come to pay his respects, it was no problem since Sifujin was a female dependent. The palace was square in shape, and the imperial garden was actually not that big. It could not be compared with the palace. Wenxi thought about it and would go to Changping Palace to live there another day.
For a few days, I can also avoid the gossip.
Yu Ludai was lively, smiling and rushing into the willow forest, climbing and breaking the fresh willow branches. The weeping willows planted in the palace were as silky as smoke, almost hanging on the ground. They were planted by the lake. Looking at the reflection in the lake, the scenery was also very pleasant.
Wen Xi and Si Fujin went to the waterside pavilion by the lake. The breeze was blowing and the spring was intoxicating. It was a nice scenery.
The tamarisk tree has graceful green silk and a graceful posture. In another month, catkins will fly all over the sky like snow. As my thoughts wandered, several figures slowly walked towards the willow forest. It turned out to be Mrs. Zhang Jia and two women wearing ordinary clothes of palace concubines.
The woman was followed by five or six palace maids and eunuchs.
Zhang Jia was almost five months pregnant and her belly was very protruding. She approached the waterside pavilion and saluted with the other two people and said, "Greetings to the imperial concubine!"
Sifujin stands sideways on Wenxi's right, slightly blessed in return.
Wenxi made a sound and said: "The road near the lake is slippery. Why are you, Mingui, here? If anything happens, don't blame me."
Zhang Jia stood up and smiled, pretending not to hear Wen Xi's words, turning slightly and introducing: "These two are Zheng Yao and Meng Changzai from the East Wing of Yonghe Palace. This must be the first time for the imperial concubine to meet them, right?"
Looking at the stranger, it seems to be a new face. I guess he is the only two Hanjun flags left from the last draft, right? Wen Xi didn't care much about this, she just said lightly and said: "Min Gui seems to be quite popular.
."A small nobleman actually has wings?
Zhang Jia's face looked haggard. I think it was caused by frequent childbirth. When she gave birth to her thirteenth brother, she gave birth to the eighth princess without raising her well. Now she is pregnant again. In the first three months, she didn't dare to go out at all. Now,
It is estimated that the fetus was a little more stable before she dared to go out and walk. As she was talking, on the six-sided stone path on the east side, Tong Bin and Ping Bin came leisurely in a shoulder carriage. It seemed that they were coming from the Cining Palace of the Queen Mother.
Today is not a day for greetings, but they are both diligent.
The path was already narrow, so the two sedans moved forward together, neither of them willing to fall behind even half a step, so they moved a bit fast.
Zhang Jia's smile suddenly brightened and she said, "I haven't congratulated Niu Hulu's Da Gege for adopting her as our legitimate daughter. It's such a happy event."
How could Wen Xi not hear Zhang Jia's sarcasm? Adoption has always been done by passing on a son to a childless brother to inherit the family business. For example, when Linge adopted the child, it was considered a happy event. Since ancient times, it was rare for a daughter to be adopted.
She was adopted because her parents were gone and she had no one to rely on. If Yan Ama and her aunt were still alive, it would not be a happy event for her to be adopted.
Concubine Tong and Concubine Ping were gradually approaching. Naturally, they could not turn a blind eye. They hurriedly stopped the carriage and came down to salute Wen Xi. Zhang Jia and Zheng agreed, and Meng Changzai also saluted Concubine Tong and Concubine Ping, "Concubine, please give me a greeting.
Concubine Tong, please give me your regards, concubine Ping."
Wen Xi excused herself from the ceremony and hummed softly, saying: "Mingui is pregnant. It seems that she hasn't visited Thirteenth Brother for a long time, right? But it doesn't matter. Xuan Bin treats Thirteenth Brother as her own child, and Thirteenth Brother
My elder brother also regards Concubine Xuan as his biological mother. Anyway, you are very capable of giving birth, so there is no harm in raising it for others!" After saying that, he looked at the two concubines, who were gracefully climbing each other with spring flowers and autumn chrysanthemums, and said, "You two are the only ones who haven't yet.
There is an heir. It would be great if Mingui had another elder brother."
As soon as they said this, Tong Jia and Hesheli both stared at Zhang Jia's belly, wishing to cut out the piece of meat inside! Zhang Jia couldn't help but take two steps back. This was not the first time she had looked at her like this.
I took it once.
Wen Xi wears slender armor on her fingers, and the pearls embedded on them reflect a strange brilliance in the faint spring light, which makes her pair of jade hands as white as mutton fat. Wen Xi sits in the waterside pavilion, hands folded
He folded it on his knees and said: "It is safe for women in the harem to have a son. It doesn't matter if you can't give birth to a child yourself. Just look at Xuan Bin and Shen Bin and you will know. It will be the same if you adopt one!" Xuan Bin got Zhang Jia.
Shen's thirteenth elder brother, Shen Bin, raised Chen Changzai's fifteenth elder brother. Now they both have children and everything is in order. They are called Tong Bin, and Ping Bin is very jealous.
Tong Jiasuwan and Hesheli Lingyi are no longer newcomers. Their love is not as good as before. For them, having a son is the most important thing now. They were suddenly targeted by two principals, Zhang Jia's family
It will be more lively from now on.
A smile appeared at the corner of Zhang Jia's mouth and she said: "Not only my concubine, but my younger sister is also pregnant. I can't guarantee who will be lucky enough to have an elder brother. I have already given birth to my thirteenth elder brother, and I don't dare to expect more."
." Then he saluted Wenxi and said: "It seems that the empress is lucky. She raised the fourth and tenth elder brothers in her early years, and now she has the fourteenth and sixteenth elder brothers. She has the most children in the palace now.
."
Wen Xi raised her eyebrows. Did Zhang Jia want to divert her attention? How could Wen Xi do as she wished? She smiled and said, "Mi nobles are different from Min nobles. After she gives birth, Brother Fourteen will naturally have to send her biological mother back."
The emperor has always doted on the noble lady, and this time she gave birth, I am afraid that the last concubine will be filled." As for the last concubine, Wen Ru would rather give it to the Wang family, but she must not let the Zhang Jia family get it!
Wen Xi smiled and said: "When you become a concubine, you can naturally raise your own children, but not below the concubine level."
Wang is now a gentle feather, and is regarded by other concubines as the second submissive nobleman Song. She is afraid that she will have bad luck in the future, so naturally she will not touch her easily. But Zhangjia is different.
No one was protecting her, so naturally everyone dared to hit her! Tong and Ping, the two childless women, were the first to not let go of the piece of meat in Zhang Jia's belly!
Zhang Jia's face was extremely ugly, and she couldn't help but said: "The empress is joking, my sister is a Han." Han people are not even as good as the Han military flag. There is no precedent for a Han person to be a concubine!
Wen Xi sneered, then looked at Tong Bin and said with a smile: "I heard from the emperor that the Tong Jia family is going to carry the flag to Manchuria to set up the yellow flag. It is really a happy event!"
Concubine Tong's brows jumped with joy, and she couldn't hold back the joy on her face, and said: "It's just that the emperor is filial, for the sake of Aunt Xiaokangzhang!" Her tone was modest, but she couldn't hide her complacency.
Although Queen Mother Xiaokangzhang has been dead for many years, she is still the biggest supporter of the Tongjia family!
Ping Bin looked at Tong Bin with a bit more resentment and jealousy in her eyes. She prided herself on being much higher than Tong Bin, but she was just relying on the Princess of the Three Flags of Manchuria! Now Tong Bin is on the same level as her. I'm afraid in the future.
It’s time to fight!
Wen Xi said in an understatement: "The Han army flag can be raised as the Manchu army flag, then the Han people can naturally raise it as the Han army flag. It's not a big deal, it's just a matter of a word from the emperor!"
In an instant, Zhang Jia's face became even more ugly.
At this time, Hu Yu, who had been ordered by Wen Xi to go to the Yonghe Palace to have Mi Gui's fetus, ran quickly and reported urgently: "Master, Mi Gui has had a miscarriage!"
When Wen Xi hurried to Yonghe Palace, Kangxi was already here. The eighth princess was stained with blood and was crying in the palace. When Zhang Jia saw her daughter covered in blood, she hurriedly rushed towards her: "Where is the injury? Why is there so much blood?
?!"
The Eighth Princess was born in the 26th year of Kangxi's reign, and is now six years old. She is a little thinner and smaller than ordinary children. She is crying especially hard today and can't stop it no matter what.
Wen Xi saw that the Eighth Princess was covered in blood, but it didn't look like she was injured. She immediately thought of the Migui Wang family... and hurriedly asked Kangxi: "How is the Migui?"
Kangxi had a sad look on his face and shook his head.
"Eighth Princess, she..." Wen Rui looked confused, "I must have accidentally collided with you, right?" She said this, but in her heart she was like a mirror. Wang's move of killing both jade and stone was really powerful! She was actually willing to let herself go.
Baby in belly?
A few days ago, Wen Xi's eyeliner found out that the Migui people were secretly inserting people around the Eighth Princess. Wen Xi remained calm and asked someone to wipe out her flaws. She didn't expect that something like this would happen within a few days! It can be seen that
It was Wang who took action.
Today, when Kangxi came back to Yonghe Palace, it was completely because the Wang family sent someone to invite them, saying that the eighth princess ran back to Yonghe Palace and made a fuss. When Kangxi came, he saw such a scene. The eighth princess shouted: "Eniang said, if it weren't for you,
, I won’t be sent out!” Then, the Eighth Princess hit Miguiren’s stomach, and the result was what she saw before her.
"Back to the Emperor," Gu Chengzong came out and knelt down and said, "My dear, this miscarriage has damaged your vitality. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to get pregnant again in the future."
Wen Xi sighed, with a sad expression, and said: "Migui people are really pitiful." Pity? It was her own choice to give up this child. With Kangxi's current attitude towards her, even if she had another brother, I'm afraid it would be the same.
If she has to be raised by others according to the ancestral system, it will be difficult for the fourteenth elder brother to return to her. Instead of having two children that are not hers, it is better to give up one and at least get the fourteenth elder brother back!
Mrs. Zhang Jia was still ignorant and hurriedly asked with tears in her eyes: "Sister Mi, why did you have a miscarriage?"
Kangxi's face turned cold and he angrily said, "It's you who taught my daughter bad things! Send Shu Lu to Jingren Palace immediately and hand her over to Tong Concubine to raise her!" Shu Lu is the eighth princess's maiden name, which is Coral's.
mean.
"I don't want it!" the Eighth Princess cried loudly, holding on to Zhang Jia's clothes, "Mother, as you said, I can come back after Migui dies!"
Zhang Jia immediately pushed the eighth princess away in a panic, and shouted in shock: "What nonsense are you talking about?!" Zhang Jia hurriedly knelt down towards Kangxi, "Your Majesty, my concubine has never said such a thing!!"
Kangxi said with a sullen face: "Take good care of your fetus from now on and don't leave the palace again." In one sentence, Zhang Jia was banned. Zhang Jia's body went limp and fell to the ground. The eighth princess was wailing.
He was also forcibly dragged away by the eunuchs around Kangxi. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
