Although Zhang Jia's family is under lockdown, the date of giving birth is approaching. It's been more than nine months now, so there's no guarantee when the baby will be born. It's good for the concubine Wang to take her concubine's status every month.
Zhang Jia was given a lot of medicinal ingredients, and Zhang Jia's belly swelled up like a balloon.
During pregnancy, it is not advisable to take too much nourishment, otherwise the fetus will be too large, which will easily lead to dystocia. At that time, the mother and the child can only protect one of them. It is obvious that the royal heirs are definitely more important than the concubines, so naturally they should be kept small. The method of keeping concubines together is simple and effective.
, even though Zhang Jia knew Mi Concubine’s intentions, there was nothing she could do about it. Except for the gentle eyeliner, the people around Zhang Jia had been replaced by Mi Concubine’s own people. People were watching her every day and Zhang Jia had to drink the medicine!
Conspiracy is often more powerful than conspiracy!
Wen Xi admired the concubine's approach very much, so she also gave Zhang Jia a lot of old medicinal materials and told her to make up for it!
The heat of summer has not gone away yet. After Wen Xi put on flat shoes, her cheongsam seemed a little too long and even touched the floor. Wen Xi wore a refreshing aqua blue dress and went to visit Yonghe Palace. Yonghe Palace and Chengqian Palace
Adjacent, the owner of Chengqian Palace has always been Wen Xi, but Yonghe Palace has changed three owners. From De Fei Wu Ya to An Concubine Li, and now Mi Concubine Wang, the first two are both
Didn't end well.
The secret concubine got the concubine position and her son came back. Her wish was fulfilled. Naturally, she became even more attached to Wen Xi. She did not show any disrespect because of her promotion to the concubine position. When she saw Wen Xi coming, she hurriedly came out to greet her and said, "Concubine."
I would like to pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine and congratulate the Imperial Concubine on her pregnancy." Speaking of pregnancy, the concubine couldn't help but feel a little sad in her eyes. She would never think about getting pregnant again. Although when she did this, she thought that something like this would happen.
Consequences, but which woman wants to be unable to give birth to children anymore?
Yonghe Palace remains the same as before. It is the season when flowers are blooming in the flower garden outside the main hall. The faint fragrance of flowers flows into the main hall with the breeze, and the whole room is filled with the elegant fragrance of orchid.
Wen Xi sat on the main seat unceremoniously and said with a smile: "How comfortable is it to live in this main hall?"
The secret concubine smiled and said: "The main hall is upright, spacious and gorgeous. Naturally, it cannot be compared with the side halls. The concubine is now able to live in the main hall in a legitimate way because it was promoted by the imperial concubine! I will never forget it!" As she spoke, her attitude became more and more serious.
Be respectful.
Wen Xi pointed to the chair on one side and said with a smile: "Sit down quickly, you are in the palace, why are you so polite?"
Seeing Wen Xi's gentle tone, the concubine also sat down with peace of mind. There was an ice basin in the hall, which contained ice cubes with mostly melted cloud patterns. The cool air, accompanied by the fragrant breeze entering the hall, was really refreshing.
It's fragrant and cool. But outside the palace is scorching hot, and the cicadas are noisy. It's like two different worlds.
She said with a gentle smile: "How is Concubine Zhang Jia?"
The concubine said with a smile: "Everything is well with the emperor." They only said that the heir was well, but did not say how the Zhang Jia family was. Concubine Mi naturally understood the meaning of Wen Xi.
Nowadays, the four concubines and six concubines, plus Wen Xi, the imperial concubine, are the main ones. Of the six east and west palaces, only the Chuxiu Palace is left empty, reserved for the draft every three years.
The current layout of the East Sixth Palace is: Tong Jiasuwan lives in Jingren Palace, Rongfei Ma Jia lives in Yanxi Palace, Wenxi Emperor’s noble concubine Niu Hulu lives in Chengqian Palace, Mi’s concubine Wang lives in Yonghe Palace, and Concubine Hui lives in Yonghe Palace.
The Nala family lived in Zhongcui Palace, and the Xuan concubine Borjigit Namu lived in Jingyang Palace.
The layout of the Sixth Palace in the West is: Ping concubine Sheli Lingyi lives in Yongshou Palace, Ding concubine Wanliu Ha family lives in Qixiang Palace, Yi concubine Guo Luoluo family lives in Yikun Palace, Cheng concubine Dai Jia family lives in Changchun Palace, and Shen concubine He lives in Changchun Palace.
Shili lived in Xianfu Palace, and Chuxiu Palace is now empty.
The positions of the fourth concubine and the sixth concubine have been filled, and the layout of the palace has been taken shape. Concubine Cheng, concubine Shen, and concubine Mi are now all members of the Wenxi party. Concubine Xuan is also considered half of the Wenxi party. Although the other three concubines are not related to Wenxi.
They don't have much friendship, but they are not antagonistic either. Wen Xi has the most wings in the harem now.
The main hall is cool and cool. The side hall may not have such good treatment. Wen Xi said: "Why don't you see Concubine Zhang Jia? She is about to give birth, so she has to go out for a walk. Otherwise, it will be bad if she doesn't have the energy to give birth."
The secret concubine smiled knowingly, and then ordered the eldest maid next to her: "Embroider clothes, go and invite Concubine Zhang Jia to kowtow to the Imperial Concubine. Concubine Zhang Jia was blessed to be a member of the Imperial Concubine's palace in her early years, and now the Imperial Concubine is here.
You should come and kowtow to express gratitude."
The chief summoned her, even if she was sick in bed and couldn't get up, she still had to come. Zhang Jia's nine-month-old belly was a bit scary. She was supported by two nuns on the left and right, and slowly entered the palace. Zhang Jia's slightly
I'm a little swollen and can't walk very steadily.
Wen Xi smiled slightly at Hu Yu, and Hu Yu understood, with a special smile on his face.
Mrs. Zhang Jia moved slowly. She was supported by her grandma and was about to kneel down to salute, but she fell to the ground with a thud. Her towering belly happened to hit the cold hard floor, and Mrs. Zhang Jia couldn't get up.
The two nuns rushed to help him.
Seeing Zhang Jia being climbed up with difficulty, Ayu's ability to control objects also increased. She casually knocked out a piece of fine ice chips, and with her familiarity with the veins, she hit the key acupuncture point on Zhang Jia's calf. Naturally,
Just fell down.
Wen Xi pursed her lips and said with a smile: "We haven't seen you for several months, Zhang Jia's concubine's courtesy is getting bigger and bigger."
Zhang Jia's face was already pale, and her body fell on her. Her leg was still twitching. She bit her white lips and said with a look of pain: "My maid... I just had a cramp accidentally."
.”
The secret noble snorted and said: "In the main hall, every three-foot-square floor is embossed with the Five Blessings pattern, which is the most anti-slip. I specially asked someone to help you, but you still fell?" All of a sudden,
It was like he had cleared himself. The position where Zhang Jia stood was almost ten feet away from Wen Xi and Mi Gui. Naturally, this account could not be relied upon.
But no one noticed that there was a small water stain on the floor, but it was no bigger than a pearl. It was quickly evaporated by the warm wind and disappeared. Naturally, the small ice shards were pried out of the ice basin by Hu Yu when no one was prepared.
Yes, no one noticed.
Zhang Jia's legs were already trembling, and she seemed to be trying her best to endure the pain. She knelt down with difficulty with her big belly and begged: "I beg your concubine, please let the child in my concubine's belly be born safely."
Wen Xi was not moved at all and said: "If you want to be safe, you must accumulate virtue and do good deeds early, and you will be rewarded with good things."
Zhang Jia's lips were so pale that there was no blood, "What I want is the safety of the child in my belly. I beg the imperial concubine to agree!"
"Oh?" You only want your children's safety, but not your own safety? There is a playful inquiry in the gentle eyes.
There was helpless bitterness on Mrs. Zhang Jia's face, "One wrong step, one wrong step..." She looked up at the Qingluan painting on the beam. It was so gorgeous and bright, it was the seat of the main hall that she had longed for for a long time.
Wen Xi said: "Since you know you were wrong, you should bear the consequences. It is your responsibility to bear the consequences today." Since Wen Xi has returned to the palace, Zhang Jia's family cannot be tolerated. She took advantage of Wen Xi's pregnancy that day.
He was in the palace, so he hurriedly killed An Bin in order to ascend to the throne, and to wait for Wen Xi to come back, so that he could have some capital to compete, right?
The pain in her stomach made Zhang Jia more and more unbearable. She said with difficulty: "I am willing to bear the consequences of today. I just ask the imperial concubine not to blame the child in her belly!"
Back then, the eighth princess's life and safety were taken into account, so why did she become such a loving mother today? Wen Xi nodded and said, "I have always wanted revenge, but I never affected innocent people." Zhang Jia's family is dead.
, it’s not a big deal. If something goes wrong with the emperor’s heir, it’s not a trivial matter.
"My concubine has one more request!" Zhang Jia's forehead was covered with cold sweat due to the pain. "If you are a princess, please ask the imperial concubine to let your concubine raise you!" If it were your elder brother, it would be useless for her to beg.
Wen Xi smiled and said: "As long as the grudges are settled, it doesn't matter if I promise you this little thing." The so-called grudges settled naturally refers to Zhang Jia's death. If she doesn't die, naturally she can't be promised.
.Zhang Jia is a smart person and naturally knows this.
Zhang Jia's silver-red skirt was stained with darker traces. Wen Xi could smell the smell of blood, blowing in the wind.
Kangxi was not in the palace at this time. Due to the heavy rain in the past few days, Fuquan was caught in the rain and suffered from wind and cold. His condition was intermittently not good, so Kangxi went to visit him incognito. He was afraid it would take a few hours before he could come back.
Zhang Jia's suppressed screams of pain came from the side hall. Wen Xi and the concubine were waiting safely in the main hall. Hu Yu came back from the side hall, leaned into Wen Xi's ear and said, "It's difficult to give birth... I'm afraid I can only keep it alive."
Firstly, if we use some means... we may end up with one dead body and two lives."
Wen Xi said: "No need, just protect the emperor's heir."
Hu Yu nodded, "I understand."
Wen Xi was a little tired, so she said to Wang, "I'll leave this to you. It's time for me to go back and take a nap."
The concubine hurriedly stood up to see him off, "Don't worry, Madam, the emperor's heir will be born safely." As for the Zhang Jia family, they naturally left the son behind.
She originally thought about going back to the palace to take a nap, but she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She struggled for more than an hour. After eating a piece of snow lotus petal, Wen Xi got up and dressed up. The woman in the mirror was the same as before, not because of anything.
She is pregnant, her skin has been damaged, but she is still as beautiful as a flower. Looking at this face, Wen Xi almost forgot what she looked like before.
When Wen Xi came back to her senses, she saw another person in the bronze mirror. Kangxi's hand fell on Wen Xi's shoulder with her black hair hanging down, and he said slowly: "Are you okay?"
She smiled warmly and said, "I'm fine, my concubine."
Kangxi smiled and said, "I feel relieved that Zhang Jia didn't bump into you."
Kangxi probably just came back from Prince Yu's Mansion, but did not go to Yonghe Palace, but came directly to Chengqian Palace. Wen Xi held a jade comb in her hand, slowly combed her long hair, and said: "Concubine Zhang Jia didn't go to my concubine again."
If you jump on me, my concubine will be fine."
Kangxi just snorted lightly and said, "I see that you are not very energetic. Is it because you don't have a big appetite?"
Wen Xi stroked her cheek with one hand and said, "I wanted to take a nap after lunch, but I couldn't fall asleep. I don't know what's going on over there in Yonghe Palace."
Kangxi said indifferently: "Just leave it to the concubine." His tone was unconcerned, as if the child that was about to be born was not his. It can be seen that Kangxi really hated Zhang Jia to the extreme. Losing the emperor's favor was the most fatal thing.
Yes, the Zhangjia family has no chance to stand up again. Instead of being bullied to death without favor, it would be better to die in childbirth. At least he has contributed to the birth of the emperor's heir. Kangxi will not blame his family. The concubine's suicide will bring harm to the mother family and she will die.
We also need to find a safe way to die.
Wen Xi said: "Concubine Zhang Jia's fetal position is not right. I heard that it will be difficult to give birth."
Kangxi held Wen Xi's forehead and let Wen Xi lean into his arms, "Don't think about this. You will have a safe and smooth delivery."
Kangxi regarded her as a brooding pregnant woman, and Wen Xi could only smile. She just wanted to tell Kangxi that Zhangjia's fetus was not in the correct position, and it was likely to cause dystocia, and dystocia was likely to kill the pregnant woman.
Kangxi wouldn't be too surprised if Zhang Jia died. However, Wen Xi obviously overestimated the importance of Zhang Jia in Kangxi's heart, and Kangxi didn't care about this woman at all.
"How is Prince Yu?" For this wise king, Kangxi was naturally much more important than the Zhangjia family.
A somewhat relaxed smile appeared on Kangxi's face and he said: "Gu Chengzong, a veteran of medical skills, has improved in the past few days! I have asked Chang Ning to visit more, and I think he will be cured in a few days."
Originally it was just a common cold, but it turned into a serious illness because he didn't pay attention to it when he first got sick. Furthermore, Fuquan was already over forty years old, so naturally he was no longer as young as he was when he was younger.
Kangxi combed her hair into a double bun with a gentle and familiar manner. The flat square on the bun revealed the carved magnolia on the left side, and a string of beads dropped to her shoulders. Kangxi took out a golden hairpin with the sound of a luan and a phoenix from the jewelry box, and tilted it
When Zan Zaiyun saw it, he smiled and said, "This one is pretty."
Wen Xi didn't really like such an overly ornate hairpin, which didn't go well with the elegant white magnolia in the square, but she still smiled shyly and gave a low hum. Since returning to the palace, Kangxi treated her more and more well.
, he has done almost everything a husband can do, except being loyal.
Even when Wen Xi's fetal image was unstable and she lived in the Nuang Pavilion of Yangxin Hall, Wen Xi could occasionally smell the fragrance of other women on Kangxi's body that was not easy to detect. However, after checking Tong's history, there was no luck in the past month.
Records. After a concubine went to bed, not all records were recorded in the history of Tong. After the concubine went to bed, the eunuch who was in charge of the bed would ask the emperor if he wanted to stay. If the emperor said no, he would give a bowl of decoction to Tong.
History will not record it. Naturally, there is no need to ask for those who take the throne of concubines. They are naturally "retained". Even if they don't want them to get pregnant, they will only be dealt with secretly.
In that month, it was obvious that Kangxi only attracted women with lower status or officials. Kangxi had more sexual intercourse between the bed and the bed. Even though he was almost forty years old, it still did not decrease. Once Kangxi had that
You will never treat yourself poorly if you meet your needs.
Even though Wen Xi was pregnant, Kangxi spent one-third of a month staying in Chengqian Palace. Normally, Kangxi would naturally work hard, but when Wen Xi became pregnant, he stopped doing anything and just settled down.
Sleep peacefully.
Chengqian Palace is extremely quiet at night. In the evening, people are calling for nonsense. Yonghe Palace is still giving birth. I am afraid that I will not be able to give birth today.
Kangxi had already fallen asleep hugging Wenxi. At this age, Kangxi had already begun to have crow's feet at the corners of his eyes, and the skin on his face was a little loose. Aging is an unavoidable fate for everyone. Wenxi's desire to form a golden elixir was even more serious.
It’s getting stronger. But now, I can only manage to maintain the third level. The child in my belly has a really big appetite!
The next morning, the concubine Zhang Jia gave birth to a princess, fifteenth in order and tenth in tooth order, making her the tenth princess. At this time, Wen Xi was washing herself, and Kangxi had already gone to the morning court. (To be continued. If you like this movie
