I don't know if it was the Bodhisattva's testament from Fuyuan Temple, or whether it was Qi Sheng's Jinkou Yuyan that worked. After I came back from Cuishan, my aunt, who was always on time, didn't really come to visit.
The freehand clerk remembered these things better than I remembered, and he had to count several times with his fingers every day. After staying up until the middle of July, he finally couldn’t hold on any longer, and suggested me with a trembling voice: "Miss, why don't you do it? Let Imperial Physician Song come in and take the pulse, Xu is really a little prince!"
I saw that she had counted her fingers back and forth several times, and nodded.
Freehand won my answer, and hurriedly turned around to instruct me, Xiao Fuer, who has the most agile legs and feet, to go to the Imperial Hospital to ask Imperial Doctor Song.
I haven't finished eating a piece of watermelon here, and Xiao Fu'er has trotted into the hall with the panting imperial doctor Song.
Freehand put the welcome pillow for me, and I put my wrist on it.
Everyone in the room looked nervously at Imperial Physician Song, expecting him to tell the good news.
Imperial Physician Song twisted his beard with one hand, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then looked up at me, and said calmly, "Please change your hand."
Everyone didn't hang up in one breath, and almost fell to the ground.
I was the only one who remained calm, changed my wrist and put it on it.
Imperial Physician Song carefully cut for a while, then got up and knelt down steadily towards me, "Congratulations, madam, this is the happy pulse."
This is good, Xingsheng Palace "coaxed" all of a sudden. Then, in less than half a day, the entire harem followed suit. The queen has just given birth for less than a year, and she is pregnant again. How affectionate the empress is, who dares to say that the queen is not favored, can she conceive two children for three years if she is not favored?
Qi Sheng got the letter and came over to look at me, his eyes lingered on my stomach for a moment, and he whispered in my ear: "It's a good place."
I humbled myself and said: "The key is to be good!"
Qi Sheng choked, put his arms around my waist, buried his head in my shoulders and laughed.
I glanced at the palace maid in the corner, patted his shoulder with the fan in my hand, and said solemnly, "Pay attention to the image."
Qi Sheng hugged me for a moment, then straightened up, let go of his hand, and walked to the soft couch beside me and sat down.
I glanced at him in a good mood, thought about it, and sent the palace maids out of the palace first, and then discussed with him: "My concubine is pregnant here, I am afraid that Zan will not be able to serve the emperor in the future, so it is better to rearrange the palaces. The order of serving the bed, so that everyone has an idea in their hearts, so don't mess up in the future."
Qi Sheng did not speak.
As soon as I saw his appearance, I knew that this fellow must be unhappy in his heart, but in order not to make myself the target of public criticism, I could only bite the bullet and push him elsewhere, even if it wasn't by the concubine's side in the harem, at least It would be fine to ask him to stay in Daming Palace and guard the Jiang family.
As I carefully observed his face, I gritted my teeth secretly, and said, "Didn't the ancients say that the eyes do not see evil, the ears do not listen to lewd voices, and they do not speak arrogantly, and they can use prenatal education, so... "
Qi Sheng interrupted me: "Do you think I'm taking up the wickedness, or the obscenity?"
I was stunned by his question and could only lower my head and groan.
Qi Sheng snorted coldly, "Don't think I don't know your little bit of thoughtfulness, everything has to be measured, and too much care won't end."
After he finished speaking, he got up and left.
Since Qi Sheng, the emperor, has become more and more comfortable, it has been a long time since he left without a word. Seeing his figure disappearing outside the temple gate with anger, I actually felt that he was cuter in this way, and it made me feel more at ease.
As usual, Qi Sheng usually ignores me for a few days after being angry. Unexpectedly, after leaving this time, he asked someone to send me four books and five classics and a few stacks of military history books in the afternoon. He also specially sent me an oral order, for the sake of the child in his belly, he told me to be familiar with these things. Back is the best.
I flipped through the military books, and then looked at the history books, Nima, someone I can't even remember this biography of the characters, you told me to recite the history books, Qi Sheng, do you want to kill me?
The little maid who brought the books looked at me sympathetically, and comforted: "My lady, don't worry, the emperor confessed that these books are for your lady's child, if you don't want to read it, you can ask someone to read it to your lady. It's just for the good of the little Highness."
I nodded my head in a trance, and I thought it was a psychedelic | phantom | medicine, and someone else read it and it would have become a requiem.
The little maid again pointed to the two maids who had been standing beside them with their heads bowed, and said, "The emperor also asked the slave maids to bring the Wu family and Yang family over, saying that they were both served by the queen's concubine when she gave birth to Princess Weiyuan. Empress is also easier to use."
I was already stunned by the piles of books, and I was still a little unsettled. When I heard the words, I just nodded. Seeing that these two were old faces, I called Freehand and took them down. placement.
That night, I went to the Daming Palace in person, and asked Qi Sheng to say, "My concubine is wrong."
Qi Sheng looked up at me and asked, "Is it really wrong?"
I nodded honestly, "I know I'm wrong."
Qi Sheng asked again, "What's wrong?"
In line with the principle of being sincere in my attitude, I replied, "Everything is wrong."
Qi Sheng snorted coldly when he heard the words, picked up the memorial at his hand, and looked down.
When I saw that this was no good, I pondered it for a while, and then changed my words: "My concubine was mistakenly placing a ready-made tree and I didn't know how to rely on it, but I was delusional about taking a few firewood and sticks to build a pergola."
Only then did Qi Sheng smile, throwing the book in his hand, stood up and said, "Let's go."
I was taken aback, "Where are you going?"
Qi Sheng took my hand and walked out, looking down at me with a slight look of contempt in his eyes, and answered simply, "Go to your palace!"
I still didn't understand at the time, you can go to my palace, why is there still contempt written in those eyes? But when Qi Sheng threw a history book in front of me, I suddenly realized.
Qi Sheng had already changed into his casual clothes, leaned lazily on the soft couch by the window, and instructed his grandfather, "Read a paragraph and listen to it."
His half-smiley expression betrayed his heart, I didn't have to guess to know that this guy must have thought of the situation when I read Zhang's grandfather's biography.
This is making fun of me again.
I flipped through the history book without a single punctuation mark throughout, and said calmly, "I think it's better to learn some female celebrities than reading this, maybe it's still a daughter."
Qi Sheng raised his eyebrows and smiled, took the book out of my hand, and said with a smile: "Alright, then ask the queen to embroider a purse for me, just to cultivate my body."
Looking at his smiling eyebrows, I realized that the pit was waiting for me here.
In private, I discussed with Freehand and asked her to help me embroider a purse for Qi Sheng secretly.
First of all, Shiyi said that he was not good at embroidering. When I heard it, I said it was just right. You want to give me a whole exquisite embroidery work. Even if I believe it, Qi Sheng does not believe it!
Freehand was pushed by me, so I wiped my tears and said, "Miss, the emperor is short of purses, he wants a piece of your heart, if the emperor knew that the purses were embroidered by slaves, he would definitely be angry with the slaves. , the life of the slave and maid is not guaranteed!"
She cried so much that it was raining, and she looked really pitiful.
But if you asked me to embroider with needles and thread, I might as well have been told to read those history books word by word.
When I was under a lot of mental stress, I had problems with my appetite. I felt nauseated from time to time. Sometimes a dish didn't taste right, and I could spit out the acid in my stomach.
Once Qi Sheng happened to be by his side, his face changed when he saw it.
I rinsed my mouth, and took this opportunity to weakly pull on his sleeve and asked, "Your Majesty, can you allow me to do something about the concubine?"
In front of everyone, Qi Sheng and I, pretending to be the empress and empress, held my hand tightly and said angrily, "If you have something to say, say something, what did you say I didn't promise?"
After hearing this, I wanted to roll my eyes, but I held back and said, "Can we not embroider that purse?"
Qi Sheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded his head in disbelief.
Imperial Physician Song came quickly and went slowly, so he left a few words: Empress Empress is morning sickness, it is best not to take medicine if you can not take medicine, the emperor does not need to worry, as long as you survive these few months.
Qi Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and calmly instructed Xie Yi to prepare food for me again.
I'm a little confused, is this morning sickness? Why did I eat Ma Ma Xiang when I was pregnant with Wei Er and my body felt better?
When I turned around and talked to Lu Li about this, Lu Li first looked around carefully, and then winked at me and said, "When the niangniang was pregnant with the first time, it wasn't...that...what! Ah? Huh?"
I was stunned for a moment, and then I understood what she meant. When I was pregnant with the first time, she and I patronized the fakes, how could I care not to vomit.
Lu Li has passed the unstable period of early pregnancy, and was finally released by King Zhao. The first thing he did when he left the palace was to visit me in this palace.
I hadn't seen her for many days, and Lu Li naturally had to wipe away a tear, and sighed, "My lady has finally made it through, I just hope that this child will be a little prince."
I have always had the shadow of the joke of the three vulgar masters in my heart. When I mentioned the birth of a boy or a girl, I felt flustered, and I didn’t dare to pick up the green fence. I quickly turned my head and confessed to the freehand side: "You go to Daming Palace and ask the emperor. Is it busy there, do you still come to eat at noon, if he doesn't come, we will leave the hedge for dinner at noon."
Qi Sheng and Lu Li did not see eye to eye, and everyone in Xingsheng Palace knew about it. Freehand didn't think much about it, he responded, turned around and walked out.
I stopped her again and instructed: "Be smart, don't let the emperor know that the hedge is here."
Freehand trotted away.
I looked around and asked Lu Lili in a low voice, "Do you think of a way to check it and see why the Huangs have been unable to conceive. It's been half a year, why hasn't anyone moved?"
Lu Li was startled, "Niangniang..."
I whispered: "It's impossible to say whether it's a boy or a girl. If I still give birth to a girl, it will be a remedy if they give birth to a son."
To put it bluntly, I still think that the number of people is more powerful. Since there are so many belly available, I can't make a mess of me.
Lu Li hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is the maiden still unwilling to believe in the emperor?"
I asked her back: "Do you fully believe in King Zhao now?"
Lu Li thought for a while, then nodded and said, "This servant knows what to do."
The two of us said something else. Lvli recommended me a few more reliable comrades in the palace, and told me to find time to do a good research.
The two were talking when Shiyi returned from Daming Palace, saying that Qi Sheng was not in Daming Palace.
Hearing that Qi Sheng was no longer in Daming Palace, Lvli immediately suggested to me with glowing eyes, "Niangniang, let's go to Daming Palace and see what's going on with that bitch of the Jiang family."
After he finished speaking, he stood up from the chair and walked out while supporting his waist with his hands.
Fortunately, I am better than her now, and I grabbed her. Ah, girl, do you think I really don't know how careful you are? Don't you just want to hold your stomach to get angry with the Jiang Sect? Can we do less of the things that vicious female supporting casts often do?
"Come on and save, don't worry about her, and don't be afraid to give birth to a child to follow her in the future!"
These words are more effective than anything else, the green hedge immediately withered, I ate lunch with me in the palace, and returned to Zhao Wangfu honestly.
When I was three months pregnant, the Zhang family came to visit me with a sign of entering the palace. This time, Mrs. Zhang didn't come. It was Mrs. Fan, Mrs. Zhang's mother, and Mrs. Bai, the hall's sister-in-law.
Fan's complexion was even worse than last time, and when she saw my face, she burst into tears of joy, wiping her tears and saying, "Since I left the palace last time, my mother ate fast and recited Buddha, and I just asked the Bodhisattva to bless my son. Thinking that it is really effective, my son is really about to get out of the way."
Mrs. Bai has a lively temperament. Seeing Mrs. Fan crying more and more energetically, she hurriedly stepped forward and handed a handkerchief to persuade her, "Don't cry, auntie, it's a good thing for the maiden to be pregnant with an imperial heir. If you cry like this, it will make the maiden feel in her heart. Suffering."
When she said this, Mrs. Fan stopped crying, wiped away her tears, and told me what I should pay attention to during pregnancy, "I must pay attention to my diet, and don't let people take advantage of it, and there is the emperor, your body. If you can’t get close to you when you’re sinking, why don’t you just pick a good-natured person out of the deep…”
As soon as I heard her babbling, I went up the "Gong Dou" road again, interrupted her in a hurry, turned around and asked Bai Shi, "How are the preparations for Cha Cha's wedding?"
Bai's eyes flickered, and she replied, "This time, the old ancestor also asked the concubine to bring a letter to the empress. It is the marriage of the three girls, and I want to ask the empress for advice."
Bai Shi's words were only half said, but the meaning was very clear. Right now, the queen of mine has suddenly turned around again, and the holy pet has been favored, so the Zhang family is also contradictory. I don't know whether to continue investing in the King of Chu at this moment, or cut the flesh out.
Over there, Mrs. Fan was still talking about how to catch Qi Sheng's heart during pregnancy, and said in the air: "...the more this time is, the more you can't be arrogant and arrogant, men are greedy for new things, as long as his heart is with you. , is stronger than anything!"
I responded with a "hmm", and in the middle of Fan's muttering, I took the time to say to Bai: "The Holy Heart is unpredictable, so let's do as the three girls have agreed, it's not a bad thing."
Mrs. Bai is a smart person, she nodded when she heard the words, and stopped talking. She just listened to Mrs. Fan nagging on the side, and when the time was right, she had to pass a cup of tea to moisten her throat.
After talking about Fan's words for a long time, I finally came to the conclusion stage, nothing more than to make me understand a truth, since I can't control a man's body, we must seize the man's heart.
I heard it loudly, and felt very emotional in my heart. It really is a palace made of iron, a beauty with flowing water, and a fine-steel pestle that is not finely ground. Women suffer, men suffer even more, and being an emperor is even harder.
Xu Shi Qi Sheng also felt that the emperor had done too much hard work. Since he found out that I was pregnant, he did not call Huang Shi and others to Daming Palace. After September, after my morning sickness disappeared, he simply gave up his pick. Apart from making a routine visit to my palace every day, he stayed in Daming Palace to guard Jiang's family for the rest of the time. .
When Huang Shi and others came to my palace to greet him, their words inevitably showed some complaints.
I hate that Tie Buchenggang pointed at some of their foreheads: "You don't have to review it yourself, in terms of body and appearance, which one is not a hundred times stronger than the one in Daming Palace, it's just that you can't keep the emperor's heart, and it's not even a human being. You can't keep it for me, I'll worry about you all day long if you're blind."
This group of women was full of grievances and complaints, but I was honest when they told me such a lesson. If you say that you are not as good as others, what can you do?
After they left, Freehand brought me a bowl of bird's nest porridge, and whispered in my ear, "This is the first time this servant thinks that Jiang's presence in Daming Palace is a good thing."
After listening for a while, I thought about it carefully, and felt that the words of freehand brushwork really made some sense. With Jiang's goal to attract everyone's firepower in Daming Palace, it really saved me a lot of things.
Life was smoother in the future, and in November, my belly protruded again. Not only has Wei'er walked steadily, she can even say some simple things. Every day, as soon as Qi Sheng entered the hall, she was the first to pounce on it, hugging Qi Sheng's legs and shouting "Father's room".
Qi Sheng was very happy, first picked up Wei'er and walked around the hall twice, then the father and daughter came to my side to see my stomach.
It was icy and snowy outside, and the house was warm and smiling, Yan Yan, but it was a scene of loving husband and wife, loving father and daughter filial piety. Occasionally, when I get dizzy due to the heat in the hall, I think that this is about to count as the "wife" and the child's hot kang head. It would be good if it could continue like this.
On the ninth day of the 12th lunar month, Matou Jun officially married the daughter of Zhang Ling, the guardian of Jingyang City, as his concubine. The Zhang family held the military power in the northern Xinjiang, and two more daughters married into the royal family.
However, this outsider looked at the scenery, but as a Zhang family member, he knew that the taste of it was not so pleasant.
My Empress Zhang is the eldest daughter of Zhang's family, and the only one who gave birth to a princess in Qi Sheng's harem. However, Miss Zhang San was the direct daughter of the second room of the Zhang family, and now she became the Princess of Chu, and everyone with discernment knew that the King of Chu and the Emperor were not of one mind.
The daughters of one family are married into two factions. In this way, if there is no strong leader within the Zhang family, then they will be divided from the inside first. Who is not selfish? How can the child be born by himself?
Every time I think about this, I admire Qi Sheng quite a bit, and at the same time, I also dispel the idea of "wife and children are on the kang head". This kid never does useless work, and everything he does has a purpose. If he points to sheltering from the rain under his big tree, he will be struck by lightning sooner or later. It is better to build a house by himself!
The battle in Yunxi was going well. In just over half a year, Yang Yu had pacified most of Yunxi, and it seemed that the rebellion would be over next spring.
The situation in the court was very good, and there were many happy events in the royal family.
The excitement of "older youth" Comrade Chu Wang's marriage has not yet passed, and good news came from Zhao Wang's house. After two days and one night of hard work, Lvli girl finally added a big fat boy to Zhao Wang.
King Zhao was very excited, and when he announced the good news to the Queen Mother, his face was full of silly joy. Two stitches!"
The Empress Dowager was so overjoyed that she kept saying "Lvli is a good girl".
As soon as I heard that the child was so old, I was very sympathetic to the hedgerow, so I hurriedly called Shiyi and brought a large package of supplements to visit the mother.
When Xieyi came back, he said that the mother was ruddy and in good spirits. She even took the child out to show her, and said in a low voice, "She can't give birth to such a child even if you kill Jiang Shi!"
After listening to this, I knew that I was just eating radishes and worrying about it. As long as Jiang Shi was around, Ledge would always have high fighting spirit, not to mention only one, but one pair, with her rainbow-like momentum, I'm afraid it doesn't matter.
There's just one thing I don't quite understand. Where did Lu Li and the Jiang family have such a big hatred?
This year, the royal family has entered and added more children, and the festival has been very lively.
During the Lantern Festival family banquet, I was already very heavy, and I couldn't sit still after sitting for a while. Seeing me like this, Qi Sheng resigned to Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Song, and personally helped me back to Xingsheng Palace.
Because it was fifteen and the weather was clear, the sky was bright with a bright moon shining in all directions, and there was no need to play lanterns. After taking two steps, I thought of being lazy, and I discussed with Qi Sheng, "Can I use a chariot?"
Qi Sheng supported me with his arms, and smiled, "Don't be lazy, Mother Wu told you to walk more."
There was nothing I could do, I sighed, I could only keep my stomach straight and continue to move forward. After walking for a while, seeing the palace maids and the maids and the others behind them all hanging in the distance, they asked Qi Sheng softly, "When will the King of Chu be moved?"
Qi Sheng was silent for a moment after hearing the words, and replied, "Wait until Yang Yu returns from Yunxi."
After a little thought, I understood Qi Sheng's plan. A general like Yang Yu, even if he has no military power in his hands, can't be taken lightly.
Qi Sheng paused and said suddenly, "You...don't think about it."
I nodded calmly, but my heart was wailing, and I saw that the storm was about to rise. Can I think about it? Hey? By the way, can the word "Fengyunjihui" be used here?
In February, Lu Li was full of confinement, and came to the palace with the child to say hello. After coming out of the Empress Dowager, he came directly to my palace. First, I asked the nurse to hold the baby and show me, and then Taking advantage of the freehand brushwork to take the nurse to the apse to feed the baby, I whispered to me when no one was in front of me: "The slave has already asked someone to check, and the emperor approached those people before. I have never given Bizi Tang, but I don't know why I have never seen them pregnant."
After hearing this, I became more and more puzzled. It is reasonable to say that occasionally there is a bad piece of land, and it is normal to have no harvest, but it is not normal for so many pieces of land to be so bare that no grass grows.
There was a look of disappointment on Lu Li's face over there, and he said in a low voice, "Before, the servant was thinking about whether the emperor has a concubine in his heart, so he just pretended to be elsewhere, but I didn't expect that it was really all over him. "
I couldn't help laughing when I heard this. After all, Qi Sheng is also a young man with strong vigor. The Huang family members are his legitimate concubines. He entered this harem to provide him with services.
How inhumane!
Lvli observed my face, and then gave me an idea: "Miss, why don't we take this opportunity to secretly pour a bowl of safflower for a few of the Huang family, and they will suffer from it after they are completely gone. Anyway, they never gave birth before. , even if we don't give birth in the future, we won't blame us."
She said it with a relaxed expression, but I was terrified when I heard it. If it weren't for the fact that her body was too heavy right now, I would have jumped up from the chair.
Green hedges, green hedges, you said that you are a mother, how can you be so vicious and reasonable?
I hurriedly stepped forward to cover her mouth, and said anxiously, "You can save your life! To cut off a man's descendants will damage your virtuousness!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Sheng came in from outside.
Lu Li was so frightened that he immediately stood up, bowed his head and bowed to Qi Sheng, and called timidly, "Your Majesty."
Qi Sheng glanced at Lu Lili coldly, didn't even bother, and asked me directly, "Where's the people? Why isn't there anyone around to serve you?"
This is all about pouring safflower into people, how could it be possible to ask people to wait on the side.
I saw that Qi Sheng's face was not very good, so I had to explain: "Wei Erfei was clamoring to see the little brother. I thought she was making trouble, so I asked them to take the two children to the apse to play."
Qi Sheng only nodded lightly when he heard the words.
Lvli glanced at Qi Sheng cautiously, then hurriedly bowed his knees and saluted, and said, "It's been a long time since I've been out, so I have to go back, so I'll say goodbye."
After he finished speaking, he even forgot his own child, so he just lowered his head and slipped out along the corner of the wall.
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so I hurriedly called out to her and reminded her to go back with the children in the apse.
Until Lvli took the child away, Qi Sheng still looked bad, I looked at him helplessly, and persuaded: "Lvli is just a little girl, you are a big man, do you have the same knowledge as her?"
Qi Sheng frowned slightly, looked at me silently for a long time, and asked me, "Do you remember the time you were drunk in Zhang Jiayuan's house that year?"
"Remember." I nodded, it was the first time I had sex with Qi Sheng after drinking.
Seeing that I answered casually, Qi Sheng's face darkened, and he asked, "Then do you remember what you said when you were drunk?"
Since I'm drunk, I can't say much when I'm drunk. I thought about it seriously this time, but I couldn't remember which sentence he asked, so I honestly shook my head.
Qi Sheng's face was dark, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You said... Lu Li, it's the two of us... let's sleep."
Hearing this sentence made me stunned for a moment, but when I reacted, my mouth was subconsciously half-open and couldn't close.
Qi Sheng walked up to me with cold brows and eyes, and wanted to stretch out his arms to hug my waist, but my waist was too thick. The other hand lifted my chin lightly, snorted coldly, and asked, "You said, I didn't kill the hedge, is it cheap enough for her?"
"Cheap, it's really too cheap for her." I replied in a daze, and then hurriedly raised my hand and swore to the sky: "Your Majesty, there is absolutely nothing between me and Lu Li, her body is stronger than Jiang's. It's limited, even if I'm a man, I like Huang's. You've also slept, do you know the difference? How comfortable is it to sleep..."
The blue veins on Qi Sheng's forehead jumped up happily again, and the hand that held my chin slid down and landed on my neck, and said bitterly, "Zhang Pengpeng, I really want to strangle you!"
As soon as we entered March, the atmosphere in Xingsheng Palace suddenly became tense, and the bosses of various palaces began to send stable wives to my palace. It seems that everyone is very familiar with it, and it was actually used when I was born last time. I was happy, I thought that this is good, it’s easy to be familiar with people, and not to mention other things, it’s easy to get together to play horses and hangs, and they are familiar with the style of cards.
Qi Sheng was more refreshing this time, and asked someone to pack up the office items in Daming Palace and moved directly into Xingsheng Palace.
Seeing that none of the Jiang sects followed, I couldn't help but ask him, "Should I transfer the Jiang sect over to serve you? Well, I'm already familiar with it."
Qi Sheng glanced at me contemptuously, "I don't have the same knowledge as you now."
Wei'er ran over from the apse with a "dong dong dong", threw herself into Qi Sheng's arms, and shouted, "Father!"
Qi Sheng lifted her up, asked her to sit in his arms, and asked her with a smile, "Did you listen to your mother today?"
Wei'er nodded hard, then turned her head to point at my stomach and shouted, "Brother, brother."
Qi Sheng was even happier, pressed his forehead against his daughter, and asked with a smile, "Wei'er wants a younger brother?"
Wei'er was amused by him, making her giggled, but she nodded, and kept calling, "Brother, younger brother."
Xie Yi smiled and joined in on the fun, saying: "The words of a child are the most accurate, the empress will definitely give birth to a little highness this time."
Pull it down, a one-and-a-half-year-old child, younger brother and sister who know shit, you didn't teach it.
I glanced at my mouth disdainfully, stood up with support, took Wei'er's hand and asked, "Will Wei'er want a younger sister or a younger brother?"
Wei'er called, "Brother, younger brother."
I asked another way: "Will Wei'er want a younger brother or a younger sister?"
Wei'er called out without hesitation, "Sister, sister."
I looked at Qi Sheng disdainfully, "Hey, can you see? How does she know about younger siblings, she will only repeat the last two words of you."
Qi Sheng looked at me, then looked at the daughter in his arms, suddenly burst out laughing, kissed Wei'er on the cheek, then unexpectedly leaned over and gave me a peck, and said in a low voice, "Brothers and sisters are fine. , don't worry, take your time one by one."
I was stunned for a moment, but the freehand on the side was "puchi" and laughed, and I was afraid that I would be annoyed, so I hurriedly lowered my head.
Qi Sheng put the Wei'er in his hand into the nurse's arms, turned around and helped me walk to the bed, and asked, "Is the little guy kicking so hard these two days?"
I shook my head. Recently, my stomach has obviously gone down, and the little doll inside has also stopped a lot. According to Wu Mama, it is only a few days' effort.
Sure enough, on the night of March 12, my stomach suddenly broke out.
Qi Sheng slept next to me, woke up first, and hurriedly leaned forward and asked me, "What's wrong?"
I endured the initial pain first, and then calmly said to him, "It may be about to give birth."
Qi Sheng was stunned for a moment, then immediately lost his calm. He didn't even care about putting on his clothes. He rushed under the bed and shouted, "Come on, come on!"
It doesn't matter who comes here, a group of people poured into the hall.
Several stable mothers have been on call around the clock for a long time. They stepped forward to give me a brief look, and instructed the maid to help me into the delivery room. As a result, the palace maids had just gathered around, and before they could reach out, they were pulled away by Qi Sheng three or two times. He picked me up from the bed and carried me directly into the delivery room.
I was afraid that he would lose his hand and fall me again, so I was so scared that I hurriedly hugged his neck and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, don't be nervous, sir won't come out, and besides the goods are in my stomach, it's useless for you to be in a hurry. ."
Whoever thought that Qi Sheng didn't appreciate it, gave me an angry look.
The delivery room was ready a long time ago. As soon as Qi Sheng put me down on the delivery bed, she was invited out by Granny Wen. Before leaving, he shook my hand firmly, and said to me in a calm tone, "Don't be afraid, I will always watch you outside."
The sensational words he said there, I didn't want to continue to be indifferent, so I had to shake his hand back, "With you here, I'm not afraid."
Qi Sheng got my words, finally let go of my hand and went out contentedly.
To be honest, watching his broad and solid back disappear outside the gate of the palace, my heart actually felt a little throbbing, but before I could smack the taste, another throbbing pain hit my stomach, so I also I can't help but feel whether this feeling is heart palpitations or palpitations.
However, giving birth to a child is also done once and twice. This time, it was much faster than when the baby was born, and even the snack in the middle was one less than last time.
At noon the next day, I successfully gave birth to a six-pound baby boy, and the mother and child were safe.
Madam Wen took the child out to Qi Sheng to see, Qi Sheng was very happy, and rewarded all the staff in Xingsheng Palace heavily, even the little maid sent by the Empress Dowager to ask for a letter received 10 taels of silver.
I was still lying on the delivery bed, and when I heard the words, I patted the bed board angrily. This fellow doesn't know how to live, and in the blink of an eye, he sent out thousands of taels of snowflake silver, what a prodigal man!
Freehand came over and tucked the quilt for me, softly persuading me, "Niangniang, close your eyes and squint for a while."
After tossing for a long time, I was already tired and tired, but I still insisted on shaking my head and instructing her: "You ask someone to bring the child in and show me."
Freehand left in response, but after a while it was Qi Sheng who came in with the child in his arms. Seeing me look at him, a very bright smile bloomed on the corner of his mouth, he carefully put the child in my arms, and said with a chuckle: "Look, is there more like me? They all say like me. "
He looks like a villain who is so successful that I can't see it, but it's just a compliment from everyone, but he takes it seriously.
When Xiaoyanzi was recognized by Qianlong as her daughter, Concubine Ling's group also said that Xiaoyanzi and Qianlong were carved out of the same mold! But the result? Is there a relationship between Xiaoyanzi and Qianlong? Bai Bai called Xiao Yanzi her mother a false name.
Qi Sheng stretched out his finger and gently touched the little doll's face, and suddenly said in a low voice, "Qi Hao, it's called Qi Hao."
I was stunned when I heard it, but before I could figure out which word it was, Qi Sheng had already pulled one of my hands over, and slowly wrote the word "Hao" in my palm with his fingers.
The force he used was very light, like a murmur between lovers, his fingertips slid from the palm of his hand as if they were off the ground, and each stroke seemed to scratch the tip of the person's heart, making his heart itch. On the other hand, his complexion was condensed, stroke by stroke, and his writing was extremely serious.
After a long while, he finished writing this word, then looked up at me and asked, "Okay?"
There was still a tingling feeling in the palm of my hand. I was a little stunned. After listening to his question, I realized that I was lucky that this child didn't have to take any exams. Otherwise, if you write a name here, everyone will finish two multiple-choice questions. Now, it will definitely fall on the starting line.
Qi Sheng was still looking at me, and I said, "I thought you had to walk all the way to the dark on the lush green road."
He raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes contained a smile, sparkling and incomparably clear, "You also know the meaning of the word 'wei'?"
How fresh, even if I don't know, don't you want me to look it up in the dictionary?
I curled my lips subconsciously, but Qi Sheng smiled, and asked the nurse to take away the freshly-baked child Qi Hao, then carefully helped me to lie down, and said softly, "You have a good night's sleep. "
Immediately, I nodded from remonstrance. It's like working overtime and rushing all night, and the work is finally completed successfully. No matter how sleepy or tired, it has been until the big boss came to condolences, and it is time to climb into bed to make up for sleep.
I slept so sweetly this time, it was the next day after I woke up. Qi Sheng was not in the palace, and he said that someone from Yunxi had come again. .
I thought about it for a while, and under the pretense of making it easier for Qi Sheng to handle political affairs, I asked someone to pack up all his belongings and pack them up and send them to the Daming Palace.
Freehand persuaded me: "Why is it necessary, Niangniang, others can't ask for such favors, why do Niangniang push the emperor out."
In response to her little romantic tone, I once again conducted a profound ideological education on her, and righteously pointed out that I was the queen and the master of the harem. First of all, I must not break the rules. Before giving birth, Qi Sheng lived in my palace for a long time. It was excusable. He could also rely on the emperor and empress's affection. It's time to trouble the censors.
Anything is too much. I have to maintain a detached style and unswervingly follow the line of a professional queen.
Furthermore, as an empress, the emperor's respect is more useful and lasting than favoring.
Of course, there is a more important point that I didn't say to Xianyi, that is, I'm about to collapse when I give birth by myself. If I drag Qi Sheng by my side, the two of them must be depressed after giving birth together!
After the things were moved into Daming Palace, there was no response from Qi Sheng. He stayed in Daming Palace very calmly, and called Wang Zhaorong to sleep at night.
This incident caused a great reaction in the palace, and the news spread at the speed of light. It is estimated that Wang Zhaorong just got on Qi Sheng's dragon bed, and the news has already reached Xingsheng Palace.
I have always thought that it is not advisable for women in the harem to focus on Qi Sheng's lower body. You must know that a man's upper body and lower body have always been brothers. They are intimate but never subordinate.
Too bad women never figured this out.
So, my confinement confinement person is not depressed yet, but the confinement confinement confinement confinement person is depressed first.
I actually quite understand the mind of a little girl like her. She has been looking forward to seeing a love fairy tale of "three thousand weak water, I only drink a scoop" on me and Qi Sheng, to satisfy her girl's heart. Pink dreams.
Freehand brushwork, as well as the former hedge, there are many such young and imaginative girls in the harem. They are smart, but immature, and they always fantasize that there will be the most sincere feelings in this world, that there will be a man who can love a woman like life.
Even if this woman is not themselves, even if they are just a spectator in this relationship, they will still be deeply moved. Then, using this emotion to support his emotions, he would endure day by day in this harem that devoured women's youth and flesh.
But life is never a fairy tale.
Just thinking about it randomly, I suddenly felt that I am too hypocritical now, and even my mental activities have to be so literary and refreshing. I couldn't help but sighed, secretly thinking that there is no benefit to having too many children.
"I don't want it, I don't want it..." I muttered to myself twice, turned over and continued to sleep in my sleep.
I slept in the middle of the night, and when I was half asleep, I felt that someone was sticking up behind me, hugged me into his arms, and slowly tightened.
In the harem, it is estimated that there are emperors who dare to climb on the queen's bed at this time.
I didn't feel scared in my heart, I was just a little surprised, my eyelids were heavy, and I didn't bother to look back, so I just asked him in a daze: "Why are you here this time? Where's Mr. Wang?"
Qi Sheng, who was behind him, didn't speak, but put his chin on my shoulder gently.
Half of my brain was still asleep, and I muttered inarticulately: "This is not good, how can I run half asleep, go back quickly."
Qi Sheng was silent for a while, and suddenly said in a low voice, "It's boring...it's boring."
I was so sleepy that I didn't think much about it, and I said casually, "If you don't want to change people, if you really can't, choose some new people..."
Before I could finish speaking, I felt the arms around my waist tighten punitively.
With such a restraint, he finally restrained my drowsiness away a bit.
I felt that it was really not easy for me to be a queen. I worked so hard to give birth to a child on weekdays, not even taking maternity leave. I adjusted my expression, turned around, and asked him solemnly, "Could it be that I've been under too much pressure recently? If not, I'll ask the imperial physician to take a look and take some medicine."
Qi Sheng's voice contained a hint of anger, "Zhang Pengpeng, you have to be mad at me, don't you?"
I shut my mouth wisely, patted his arm lightly with my hand, motioned him to relax, and then automatically found a more comfortable position in his arms, "Sleep, I'm still confinement. Woolen cloth!"
Qi Sheng didn't speak any more, but he sighed lowly, and after a while, he suddenly said without thinking, "I want to do it."
I held back my body from appearing stagnant, and after a while, when I felt that I could fully control my voice, I calmly said, "Go on, as long as you don't charge yourself with treason. ."
Once it is related to conspiracy, it will be involved in a wide range, and there will be countless mistakes.
Qi Sheng was silent for a long time, then replied softly, "Okay."
At the beginning of May, Yang Yu led the army to defeat the main force of the rebel army in Yunxi, and won more than 30 people from the king, concubine, prince, and county master of Yunxi, as well as treasure seals, gold medals, gold and silver seals. So far, Yunxi has completely merged Enter the southern summer map. The good news spread to Shengdu, and the whole country cheered. Qi Sheng named Yang Yu the Marquis of Pingxi, and in his edict, praised Yang Yu as being comparable to Maishuai.
In August, Yang Yu was ordered to return to Beijing, and Qi Sheng gave him a thousand hectares of fertile land, countless golden and beautiful family members, and even a village of the royal family in Cuishan was given to him. For a time, the Yang family was very popular in Shengdu, and Yang Yan, the youngest son of Yang Yu, also rose with the tide, and was named Hou at a young age.
Yang Yan became more and more arrogant and arrogant, and even blatantly came to Xingsheng Palace to see me.
Now I have completely reduced to a housewife. Wherever I go, I hold a Qi Hao in my arms and hold a Qi Wei in my hand, and I almost have another in my stomach.
Yang Yan looked at me disdainfully, and sneered, "Can you be even more unpromising?"
I ignored his provocation and went straight to sit under the shade of the tree in the courtyard. I first asked the wet nurse to lead Qi Wei, and then ordered Shuyi to make tea. Then I teased Qi Hao in my arms and asked Yang Yan casually. : "Why do you remember me here?"
Yang Yan raised his eyebrows, "If he didn't come, how could this scene be true? How could he believe me that the Yang family still didn't know the disaster was coming!"
Seeing that the young man who was originally heartless and committed crimes from time to time has turned into such a thorny and angry youth, I didn't know what to say, and after a moment of silence, I asked, "How have you been recently? "
Yang Yan squinted at me and asked with a half-smile, "Don't you know that I'm the most sought-after bachelor in Shengdu now? The threshold of my house will be trampled by the matchmaker."
Seeing him like this, I couldn't help feeling a little sad. Outsiders looked at the excitement, but the current excitement was just an illusion created by Qi Sheng on purpose. Soon, all this will be destroyed in a tragic form in front of the world.
The cruelest thing is that the Yang family knew that there was an abyss ahead, but they had to keep going.
Yang Yan raised his head and looked at the tree head with luxuriant branches and leaves, and asked himself, "Are you saying this is right? Take the lives of more than a dozen members of my Yang family to bet on one. Oral agreement."
I thought about it and replied, "Because of Michael's reputation, he doesn't dare to hurt your lives. Also, don't forget that there is me, you can't kill your family."
"You?" Yang Yan tickled the corners of his mouth sarcastically, "Just because you give birth to Qi Sheng's children one by one?"
I glared at him, why didn't I just give birth to two, what is one after another?
Yang Yan was silent for a while, and said in a low voice; "Sometimes I really don't understand you guys, you, Brother Ninth, and my father, especially Brother Ninth and my father, I don't know why they gamble with their lives. In such a dangerous situation, if it were me, I would rather break the jade together and fight to the death rather than compromise like this."
I looked at his young and flamboyant face, and sighed lowly, "Actually, they also chose to fight to the death, but it's just another form. Put death first and then live."
Hearing this, Yang Yan snorted coldly, and said, "If I don't strike first, I will eventually be ruled by others, and then I will die and wait for my death. It's better to strike quickly."
Freehand over there has already brought tea, and respectfully put the teacup in Yang Yan's hand.
I glanced at Xieyi, and suddenly I got excited, so I asked him with a smile: "You said that there are many matchmakers for you now?"
Yang Yan nodded, "A lot."
I asked again, "Is there something you like?"
Yang Yan shook his head.
I pointed to the freehand standing by the side, and asked him with a smile, "What do you think of this girl next to me?"
Yang Yan is famous for being thick-skinned. Hearing that, he actually raised his head to look at the freehand brushwork. He was embarrassed and embarrassed by the freehand brushwork.
After Yang Yan finished looking at it, he nodded solemnly and replied, "It's good."
Freehand was so embarrassed that her ears were red, she couldn't hold it any longer, she hurriedly bent her knees at me, and hurriedly retreated like a hooligan.
Yang Yan looked at the back of the freehand, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth, then turned to look at me and asked, "Do you think I should really marry a wife now? When the incident happens, I can do more. Bring the family in, it's so lively!"
I smiled, "Okay, if you don't like it right now, you can go marry his daughter."
Yang Yan sneered and said, "Then I should marry your Princess Wei Yuan!"
Princess Wei Yuan is Wei'er's title, and just by listening to the meaning of the name, you can know her status in Qi Sheng's heart.
I consider myself an enlightened parent, and I always feel that age is not a problem, let alone that I have crossed genders here. He didn't feel annoyed when he said this, just shrugged his shoulders casually and replied, "It doesn't matter, as long as you can keep exercising and keep your body and mind healthy, if Wei'er is willing to marry you in twenty years, I won't. It's a slap in the face. Anyway, the mother-in-law looks at the son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the better."
When he was done, he squinted his eyes and looked him up and down.
Yang Yan was choked by me. His handsome face was like a palette. It first gradually turned red, then turned blue, and finally turned white, and said angrily, "A mother like you is really rare!"
I smiled and shouted for the maid to come over and change the tea for Yang Yan.
Before the palace maid came, Yang Yan stood up from the low stool, flicked the corner of his robe, and threatened me with a gloomy tone: "You also know my methods, I hope you keep your promise, otherwise , I will definitely not let you go."
I didn't lift my head, I just tipped Qi Hao, who was in my arms, with my legs, and mocked, "What means? Are those who climb trees or those who climb walls?"
"You!" Yang Yan wanted to get angry, but he endured it. He bent down and tilted his head to look at me, his face had returned to a grinning expression, and said, "I will steal you from this palace, and then Throw it into the Wanjiang River and tell you to float along the river for a hundred or eighty li."
I just remembered the incident of falling into the water in the Wanjiang River, and I couldn't help but have a cold war.
Yang Yan felt that he had finally found his place, laughed twice, and walked away.
In October, when the Yang family was in the limelight in Shengdu, there was a censor, Yang Yu, who was proud and complacent. Qi Sheng suppressed more than a dozen cases in a row, but he did not expect that not only did he not suppress the matter, but it caused a strong rebound from the censors.
On October 11, the two imperial censors who were the first to impeach Yang Yu were suddenly killed at home. The case immediately shocked the court inside and outside. On the thirteenth of October, the imperial censors from the left and right of the Duchayuan led their 100th brothers to the outside of the Hanyuan Hall of the Daming Palace. In addition, Qi Sheng was asked to investigate the case thoroughly.
Under the pressure of the civil service system, Qi Sheng had to order the Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to hear the case.
This trial does not matter, not only all the clues point to the fact that Yang Yu, the Marquis of Pingxi, is the black hand behind the murder to vent his anger, but also pulls out Yang Yu's previous illegal actions in the army. ...The charges were increasing, and soon, they followed the clues to the King of Chu who was in close contact with Yang Yu's young son. Immediately afterwards, even Zhang Ling of the Yue family Jingyang of the King of Chu was implicated.
The Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Metropolitan Court were all a little stupid. Although no one said anything, they all knew in their hearts that if this thread continued to be tampered with, Zhang Fang, the minister of the Ministry of War, would be behind. As for Zhang Fang's two daughters, one married the He family, another giant in the army, and the other married the emperor Qi Sheng.
Unless everyone has the heart to uproot my queen, otherwise, this matter can't be investigated further.
It is estimated that the censors of the Duchayuan did not expect this matter to develop to such a degree when they first knelt down to the palace, and all of the three members of the army were all at once pulled together, including me, the queen, okay, fight. A table of mahjong was just right, and even the King of Chu was not qualified to be at the table, so he could only watch the cards by the side.
It is said that the Censor Zuo Du of the Ducha Yuan was so anxious that his mouth was bubbling, and the Dali Si Qing was not much stronger than him.
When Lu Li came in and said this to me, although she looked relaxed, some subconscious movements revealed her inner tension. Later, I might think that it was really hard to force a smile like this, so I sank my face and asked me a little impatiently: "Miss, will the emperor use this matter to completely suppress the family? If you put on the hat of treason, not only Everyone in the family will die, and even the empress will be implicated."
I lay lazily on the soft couch in the dormitory, and replied nonchalantly, "He doesn't want to destroy the queen now, so he won't be involved in treason."
As long as it is not a crime of treason, then this seemingly shocking case can only end in a lot of thunder and rain in the end.
Yang Yu was Mai Shuai's eldest son, and Qi Sheng didn't dare to kill Mai Shuai's descendants even if he looked at Cheng Zu's face. Therefore, the Yang family is fine.
Matou Jun is Qi Sheng's brother and the only son of Empress Dowager Song. If he dares to kill Maotoi Jun, Empress Dowager Song can go to the Hanyuan Hall of Daming Palace to hang him, not to mention Empress Dowager Song still holds in her hand the one left by the late emperor. The edict of Sheng mutilating siblings. In this way, the latrine gentleman can't die.
The rest is the Zhang family who was implicated. The Zhang family has me, the queen who gave birth to Qi Sheng's eldest son. If Qi Sheng didn't want to abolish the queen, he couldn't kill the Zhang family.
Crunching his fingers, he felt that Qi Sheng was actually quite suffocated. So many confidants were easily copied in one net, but because of these intricate relationships, they couldn't kill a single one.
Sometimes I think, if I were Qi Sheng, what would I do.
Guess I don't have Qi Sheng's forbearance skills, and I won't think about it as much as he does. In all likelihood, I will grit my teeth and my heart will completely solve these confidants' troubles. No matter what he is, Mai Shuai or not, go to his uncle. The edict of filial piety will be destroyed first!
Sure enough, the case stopped when Zhang Ling was found.
After the tribunal of the three divisions, the report was presented to Qi Sheng, and the articles were full of various crimes, including Zhang Ling's forced marriage to a widow, but the word "treachery" was not seen.
The case is over, and the rest is how to decide.
Although Yang Yu had his life at stake, he also had military exploits. In the end, he was sentenced to cut the title and seize the coupons, and the family moved to Lingnan.
The king of the latrine was demoted from the king of Chu to the king of the county, and he was fined three years' salary.
As for Zhang Ling, it would be better to say that he was directly fired from the army and never recovered.
This result, although it was much worse than the toilet king expected, but it did not deviate from the general direction. After all this tossing, it was not until March of the following year that this vigorous "the murder of the imperial censor" came to an end.
March 12 is Qi Hao's first birthday.
Since the previous "the murder of the imperial censor" was too broad, all the ministers in the court who had nothing to do with the court fought a lawsuit for half a year. Qi Sheng himself seemed to feel a little embarrassed, so he thought of taking this opportunity to ease the court. In the atmosphere, he decided to celebrate the birthday of the eldest son of the emperor.
I actually like this kind of lively, but because of the queen's reputation, I have to pretend to be virtuous and go to the Daming Palace to persuade Qi Sheng to be thrifty and not to make a big deal of Qi Hao's birthday party.
Qi Sheng was standing in front of the book desk and making a post. Hearing that, he only glanced at me and asked, "Do you really think so?"
I have always adhered to the principle of "speaking the truth in small matters, and talking nonsense in major matters", I shook my head when I heard that, and replied, "I also want to do something lively, it's better to have an amnesty for the world and call everyone. You all know Hao'er's place in your heart."
Qi Sheng sneered softly, "That's enough."
I followed him with a haha, took the initiative to walk aside to help him grind, and said with a laugh, "Isn't it all to deal with fame? I'm just here to tell you this, you can listen to it or not. I'm happier."
Qi Sheng stopped writing, looked up at me, and suddenly said after a while, "I want to make Hao'er the crown prince."
I was really shocked when I heard this, and without thinking, I said, "No, it's okay."
Qi Sheng looked at me carefully and asked, "Is this true or false?"
I was going to take the path of love and affection, and said sternly: "You have also been a prince for more than ten years, don't you know what it is like to be a prince? If it is said that a prince is the most difficult thing in the world, then the prince is the second in the world. It's hard to do, why let Hao'er suffer this hardship."
Qi Sheng raised his eyebrows, "Do you think the crown princess is more difficult than the crown prince?"
I have become accustomed to his behavior of being unable to grasp the key points of the sentence, and I ignored it, just said: "The emperor is young and strong now, if he can stay away from drinking and sex, exercise diligently, go to bed early and get up early, and work less hard, I guess I will live another four years. Fifty years is no problem."
These words were probably fair to hear, and Qi Sheng nodded slowly.
I said again: "That means if Hao'er is made the crown prince now, he will be forty or fifty years old. Have you ever seen any prince who can survive forty or fifty years?"
Qi Sheng looked at me quietly, without saying a word.
"He is still too young, I don't know what he will look like in the future, is he really capable of taking over this country." I stopped and lowered my eyes before continuing, "And you are too young, There will be more and more sons in the future, and maybe there will be one who is more liked by you than Hao'er, what will you do then? What do you want Hao'er to do?"
Qi Sheng still didn't speak, I didn't look at him, and I didn't know what expression he would have at the moment, I could only guess what he was thinking, and then whispered: "In the royal family, father and son are jealous of each other. Little, I have seen it in the first half of my life, and I don't want to see it again in the second half of my life."
After a long time, Qi Sheng sighed softly and said, "I see."
Sure enough, although Qi Hao's first birthday was beautiful, he did not mention the matter of the prince. A few days later, when I went to the Daming Palace again, I discovered a very strange thing.
Xiaojiang, who has always been working hard and never complaining about the wind and rain, has disappeared for more than ten months.
The little maid leaned beside me, bowed respectfully, and whispered, "The emperor asked someone to send her away, and the slaves don't know where she sent Miss Su to."
This gossip surprised me so much, I couldn't help but ask: "Okay, why did you send it away? Will you come back?"
The little maid carefully looked at my face and said, "My servant doesn't know what's going on, why don't the empress ask the emperor?"
I ask? What position do I have to ask? The Jiang family is not in the establishment, and the salary is never received from me. Besides, what can I ask? Ask Jiang Shi is this a temporary leave or a long-term retirement? Is there any compensation? Will you pay three insurances and one gold in the future?
The little maid by the side was still looking at me out of the corner of his eye, and I nodded casually, but when I saw Qi Sheng, I pretended not to know about it and didn't mention it.
Qi Sheng didn't mention this, but just said: "Hao'er will gradually grow up in the future, and he can't be called better than a woman's hand. From tomorrow onwards, you will bring him here every day, and I will teach him personally."
Qi Sheng's idea of "Education must start from the baby" is good, but the practice is a bit disgusting. People have to be three years old before going to a kindergarten, so you call a person who has just turned one year old. Does the little doll come to study government affairs every day?
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he said it very seriously, without the slightest joking look, and could only nod his head in response.
On the second day, Qi Sheng really sent a small servant to Xingsheng Palace to urge me. I had no choice but to bite the bullet and take Qi Hao to Daming Palace to Dianmao.
When Qi Sheng met the courtiers, I was listening behind the screen with the child in my arms. While he was reviewing the memorial, I was sitting on the imperial couch with the child in my arms.
At the beginning, Qi Hao was unfamiliar with this environment and behaved very well, so he sat in my arms honestly. But within two days, he would no longer sit in my arms honestly. He insisted on twisting his body down, and then staggering to the outside of the screen.
Qi Sheng was listening to several officials from the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Households outside. I dared to tell him to run out, so I could only pull him back with his collar. Who knew that this would be a big disaster, Qi Hao glared at me for a moment, pouted his lips in grievance, and burst into tears the next second.
I couldn't coax him here, I was sweating profusely, and when I wanted to cover his mouth with my hands, Qi Sheng came around from the screen, carried him out, put him on his lap and whispered softly. Coaxing to the ground, with a calm expression, he instructed the Minister of the Ministry to continue.
I was still sitting behind the screen, and I couldn't see the expressions of the people outside, but the Minister of Tobe's speech was obviously not as smooth as before.
Later, things gradually turned into Qi Sheng holding the child to meet the courtiers outside the screen, and I listened carefully behind the screen alone. The first two times, the courtiers were still a little surprised, and gradually they calmed down.
After more than a month, I don't know if Qi Hao has long been familiar with him, but I have heard all the affairs of the DPRK and China. When Qi Sheng was lazy occasionally, I helped him read the book. Although it is still not very quick to break the sentence, Qi Sheng can understand it, and then close his eyes and read the approval.
I grabbed the writing brush in my hand, jotting it down on the note, then put it in the memorial, and waited for Qi Sheng to transcribe it again.
When Qi Sheng saw what I wrote for the first time, he didn't speak for a while, then pointed at the piece of paper and asked me expressionlessly, "What did you write?"
I didn't know for a while whether he was laughing at my poor handwriting, or whether I didn't know these shorthand characters. After thinking about it, I replied: "This is called shorthand characters, it is a simplified version of the traditional Chinese characters you use, don't you think so Are the words easier to learn?"
Qi Sheng carefully looked at the words I wrote, but he was noncommittal, but said: "Don't write such words in the future, it will be bad for people to see."
I nodded in agreement, but when I wrote it next time, I subconsciously wrote simplified characters.
After so many times, Qi Sheng became angry, stopped lying on the soft couch, got up and walked to my side to supervise me personally.
I stood there clutching the brush, the ink dripping from the nib, and I couldn't write a single word.
Qi Sheng squinted at me and asked, "What's wrong?"
I was sweating all over my forehead, and after babbling for a long time, I replied embarrassedly, "I can't write."
Qi Sheng wondered, "Can't you write anything?"
I touched my sweat and replied, "Traditional Chinese characters, I haven't learned them before, so I won't."
Qi Sheng looked at me in surprise: "Didn't you know them all when you read them?"
I replied: "It looks familiar to me, so I just read it blindly. The scholar can read and recognize half of it!"
Qi Sheng looked at me and was finally speechless.
Since then, I've had one more job. While Qi Sheng was sitting on Criticism, I was standing beside me practicing big characters. Since then, I spend most of the day in Daming Palace. Sometimes Qi Sheng is busy with government affairs, and I have to work overtime with me until late at night. By the way, I also stay at Daming Palace.
I made a preliminary calculation, and now I am not only working as the head of the harem, but also working as a secret secretary and a life assistant, and I have to sleep with me from time to time... I can be considered to be multi-tasking.
In addition to being tired, I miss the Jiang family more and more. I think that classmate Jiang is really a good comrade who pursues the best, is down-to-earth and works hard. If she was still in the Daming Palace, Qi Shengxu would not treat me like this. Livestock made.
In May, reports from Jiangbei suddenly increased, most of them from the military. I vaguely felt that it was time for Qi Sheng to attack Bei Mo.
One day, I accompany him to work overtime until late at night, and after doing some physical work with him in bed, I said, "I want to go back to Xingsheng Palace."
Qi Sheng's breath was still a little unstable, and after a while he asked, "Why?"
I covered my chest with a thin blanket, raised my body to look at him, and replied, "Because I am the queen, I have to lead the six palaces, what's the point of staying in the previous dynasty all day? The two cloths got into a quarrel and tried to find me to judge, but they were stopped outside the Daming Palace and didn't come in. The two turned around and went to the queen mother's place crying again, and then the cloth was divided neatly. "
Qi Sheng turned his head to the side and looked at me quietly, and I looked at him without hesitation.
After a while, I couldn't help laughing. I stretched out my hand and pushed him, and said with a smile, "What are you practicing with your eyes? It's so dark in the tent that I can't even see my eyes, and my winks are all in vain!"
Qi Sheng also laughed sullenly and pulled me down on his chest. His chest was thick and strong, and it vibrated slightly because he was laughing. After a while, the vibration stopped, and after a while, he heard him whisper: "I'm going to fight Beimo, this is Chengzu's legacy. ."
My body froze uncontrollably, but the heart in my chest was beating violently. In order not to be noticed by him, I hurriedly supported his chest with my hands, slightly separated the bodies of the two of them, and asked him in a somber voice, "Do you want to recruit yourself?"
Qi Sheng didn't speak, but put his palm on my vest lightly.
My heart was beating like a drum, and I didn't dare to move at all, so I could only let his warm and dry palms stick to the place where there was only a layer of flesh and blood from my heart.
In the dimness, I vaguely saw that the corner of Qi Sheng's mouth seemed to tick slightly, and then slowly said: "Don't be afraid, in case I can't come back, you will support Hao'er to ascend to the throne, just in time for you to do everything. Queen Mother's thoughts."
It was obviously a joke, but these short dozen or so words exploded in my heart like a dull thunder. My heart was still beating on the drum, but every string in my brain was stretched like a steel wire. I swallowed a mouthful of spit subconsciously, and thought about saying something to express my feelings. loyalty.
In the darkness, his sight was like an invisible sword, which could pierce a person's soul directly.
I opened my mouth for a long time but couldn't make a sound.
He said this obviously not on a whim. He asked me to accompany him to handle government affairs. Was it a trial or pre-job training?
And what kind of answer does he need from me now?
Thinking like this, the intense heartbeat gradually calmed down, and I asked calmly, "What if Lao Jiu refuses to accept it?"
Qi Sheng spit out a word lightly: "Kill."
Well, the answer is always concise and to the point!
I looked at him admiringly and exclaimed: "Good idea! Really good idea! The question is...how to kill?"
Qi Sheng smiled again, caressed my back lightly with his hand, and replied, "I will kill you. Before handing the scepter to you, I will remove all the thorns on the handle of the scepter for you."
I was inexplicably surprised in my heart, but I forced a smile on my face, and said easily: "Well, but, don't give me the whole scepter to polish it so that it won't hurt anyone else."
Qi Sheng thought for a while, then nodded: "Okay."
I felt that whether he believed it or not, it would be good for him to be sensational at this moment, so I buried my head in his arms, and after holding it for a while, I asked him in a hoarse voice, "You can't ask others to lead the troops. go?"
Qi Sheng's hand went up slowly along my back, touched the top of my hair, and then casually wrapped his fingers around a lock of hair on my temples, and replied softly, "No one is more suitable than me. "
He was telling the truth.
The old coaches of the same generation of ancestors have basically been invited by Yan Jun to go to Huajiu, even if there are one or two left, they can't be counted on.
In the next generation, Yang Yu had handsome talents, but he couldn't use them. Zhang Ling was just pulled off his horse by Qi Sheng a while ago. 's burden.
As for the grandchildren, they are still too young, most of them have more than Confucius and Wu, but not enough intelligence, and they have no qualifications, and they dare not use them.
After all the calculations, Qi Sheng himself was the most suitable. He learned the art of war at a young age, and has a high military talent. In their spare time, the grandfather and grandson not only played the tactics against the sand table, but from time to time they also took their men and horses to practice on the Xihu grassland, which was hated by the grassland people.
It was not until the late emperor ascended the throne that the people of the grasslands lived a peaceful life.
The late emperor was a literate person, and he only wanted to develop economic and cultural development. Although he had to make Qi Sheng the crown prince because of Chengzu's face, he didn't think much of a martial artist like him.
Qi Sheng also has self-knowledge, knowing that he is not liked by his father and emperor, so he simply does not make people hate him. He is very familiar with Bei Mo.
He personally fought for Bei Mo as a handsome man, as long as he didn't commit the fault of Zhao Kuo and Zhao eldest brother, he would be more suitable than others.
In the darkness, the two of them just lay quietly for a while, and the atmosphere was just a little quiet when Qi Sheng sneered softly and asked me, "Can't you bear me?"
This question stumped me all of a sudden.
If I answer "I don't want to", I guess he won't believe it, but if I answer "I don't want to", I guess he will be unhappy. I thought about it for a while and decided it's better not to answer directly.
I raised my head from his arms and said half-truthfully, "We have come to this day, and we have even given birth to two children. If we say that we have nothing to do with each other, it is purely hypocritical. You have something for me. Beware, I am wary of you, this is normal. Trust is not maintained by words, it is only right to see people's hearts over time. You are going to fight in person, I will not stop you, and I will guard the capital for you. You Come back, I will continue to be the queen for you. But if you really can't come back, I won't tell you the lies to fool you, I will only guard Wei'er and Hao'er well, and the throne can be preserved. Bao, if you can't protect me, let me go, nothing is as important as living."
Qi Sheng was speechless after listening to it for a long time, and finally sighed without knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Are you so insolent?"
"Integrity?" I smiled and blew on his face deliberately, "If I want that thing, I've been hanged eight hundred times, can I still lie on the same bed with you now?"
This time, Qi Sheng didn't smile, just stared at me seriously for a moment, and then said softly, "It's been a long day, go to sleep."
I fell obediently in his arms, but in my heart I was scolding: Sleepy! This evening is so exciting | exciting, the brain is already excited, it is strange to be able to fall asleep!
After a while, Qi Sheng asked again, "Can't sleep?"
I was silent and gave a soft "um".
Qi Sheng smiled and said, "Me too, since that's the case, don't sleep for now, let's do it again!"
Before the words were finished, the man turned over.
At first, I was not very interested, but then I thought that if he was really left in Jiangbei by the master of the toilet, I would have to be a widow here, and it would not be easy to sleep with a man at that time. Thinking of this, I followed with enthusiasm, and the two of them tossed until it was almost dawn, and then fell asleep.
In May, Qi Sheng really announced that he was going to tour the North.
The emperor's border patrol was a major event, but because Chengzu paid too much attention to the defense of northern Xinjiang, he had to travel to Jiangbei every three years, so that no one regarded it as a major event.
In the generation of the late emperor, he prefers the Lingshan Xiushui in the south of the Yangtze River, and does not like this rough style of "Northern Xinjiang Double Riders in January". Unfortunately, the rules that my father left behind were not easy to break. After suffering twice, I had the inspiration to change the way, and changed the Northern Tour to the emperor who paid for the crown and the prince.
As the crown prince, Qi Sheng has made three tours to the north on behalf of the emperor. During the last tour, he was smitten by the brothers of King Zhao and almost capsized in Wanjiang.
At that time, I was still the Crown Princess Zhang, and during the day I dragged Yang Yan across most of the Wanjiang River, and at night dragged King Qi Han of Chu along the entire Jiuqu Gorge, which made me dizzy when I saw the living water.
This is Qi Sheng's first northern tour since he ascended the throne, and his momentum is naturally much greater than when he was the prince before. However, except for a few important officials who knew that this time he was using the name of "Northern Tour" for "personal expedition", the rest of the people only acted as Qi Sheng and traveled at public expense, and didn't pay much attention to it. There was even a censor. Criticizing Qi Sheng's northern tour is a waste of money and labor.
Flies don't bite, but they are annoying!
I handed a stack of memorials to Qi Sheng and asked him, "Can't you think of a way to shut up these guys?"
Qi Sheng flipped it over and threw it aside, smiled and said, "They call them, you just keep your head down and do your own thing, no matter what they do!"
It's so easy to say that, when you're going to pat your butt and beat Beimo, you'll have to leave me in Shengdu with such a bunch of gangsters.
I raised my eyes to look at him sincerely, and discussed, "Why don't you just take them to the north with you, and there will be a few chatters in your spare time."
Qi Sheng lifted his eyelids and glanced at me, and said without yin or yang, "No, I have to bring too many people this time, so I'll leave it for you."
I really feel that this matter is only "don't want to take it", there is no "can't take it", you can even take the king of Zhao and the king of Chu together, are you afraid of adding a few more carriages for the censors to use?
That's right, this "Northern Tour" Qi Sheng actually ordered King Zhao and the toilet king to accompany him.
When I first heard the news, I was stunned for two seconds, but I quickly understood Qi Sheng's intention. He was not very worried about these two brothers. Rather than keeping them in Shengdu, he would be more relieved to watch them beside him.
Before leaving, the toilet master finally seized the opportunity, broke through many obstacles and met me at the Empress Dowager Song, and showed me an imperial decree that was more like the real thing.
It was written in Qi Sheng's tone, and it can also be regarded as an edict of guilt. The words are full of emotion, and the writing is brilliant. In simple and refined words, it summarizes an emperor who did not listen to his ministers to dissuade him and insist on the northern expedition, which eventually led to his own death on the battlefield. fact".
Is this sentence long enough? Seems strenuous, doesn't it? Don't complain, this is a simplified version compared to the original imperial decree I read, and I added a comma for you anyway.
It was also thanks to me that I practiced classical Chinese under the pressure of Qi Sheng a while ago, and I finally understood this imperial edict.
At the end of the imperial decree, Qi Sheng passed the throne to the eldest son Qi Hao.
After I finished reading, the maid took the imperial decree back from my hand, smiled lightly, and said, "For safety's sake, put this thing first with the queen mother. If Jiangbei can't make it happen, the queen just thinks she has never seen such a thing before. share of things. But if Jiangbei is a thing..."
He stopped here and looked at me calmly.
I smiled and continued: "If you succeed there, I will use this imperial decree to help the eldest son of the emperor ascend the throne, and then order you and Zhang Fang to assist in the same dynasty. However, you must pay more attention, don't give Bei Mo If they take advantage of it, once they take the opportunity to counterattack, it will be difficult to drive them out."
The latrine gentleman nodded and said solemnly: "I am also a descendant of Chengzu, and I will definitely not ask the Tartars to go to Jingyang, and I hope the queen will keep her promise."
Keep your promises, not just what you say, but what you do. I didn't say anything, just tugged at the corner of his mouth, then got up and walked out. As soon as the person walked to the door, the latrine gentleman called me from behind again, and when I turned around to look over, he refused to speak, just looked at me quietly.
I asked him, "Anything else?"
The latrine gentleman smiled lightly and shook his head gently.
I couldn't stand this kind of literary and fresh style the most. I just felt that my teeth were half sore. I hurriedly turned around and went out, taking the two little beauties that the Queen Mother Song gave me back to Daming Palace.
In the apse, Xie Yi had just instructed the maids to bathe Qi Wei and Qi Hao's two little ancestors. It was no less than just after a water battle. Even the hair was dripping with water droplets. I heard that I came back. , hurriedly greeted me, and asked me with concern, "Niangniang, are you alright?"
She asked, and only then did she see two little beauties behind me, with a look of surprise on her face.
I briefly introduced these two little beauties to Xinyi. They are both distant relatives of the Queen Mother Song who could not be farther away. On the surface, they said they were sent to serve the emperor and the queen, but secretly, they hoped that I could open a back door. Set this work place to Qi Sheng's dragon bed.
After listening to the freehand brushwork, he pouted, and when everyone left, he said to me: "The slave servant is still the queen mother and asked the empress to come over, what is the matter, so it turns out that Hu Meizi came over again. If the slave maid says that the empress is not polite to them, she will leave the person behind. Serving the empress in the palace and seeing if they survive to make a tour of the emperor's north."
The two little beauties are both fifteen or sixteen years old, and they are as tender as Huaguduo. Just looking at them is pleasing to the eye. I have the intention to keep them by my side, but after all, this person was sent by the Queen Mother. , you have to talk to Qi Sheng anyway.
Qi Sheng heard that the queen mother sent two more distant relatives, but Jianmei frowned slightly and said, "I don't know where the queen mother got so many family members. It's not over yet."
I closed my eyes and didn't say a word, but I thought to myself, what's the point of this, if it's in modern times, a few turns can make you and African chimpanzees climb relatives. This is still a beauty anyway, so be content with it.
Qi Sheng glanced at me and asked again, "Are these two beauties?"
I answered sincerely: "She is indeed a beauty, naturally beautiful, and charming."
Qi Sheng nodded slowly.
I asked tentatively, "Your Majesty's northern tour, do you want to take them with you to relieve your boredom?"
Qi Sheng shook his head, "I'm going to war, what woman do I bring with me!"
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but said with a smile on my face: "Yes, people say that women can't enter the military camp, otherwise it is unlucky, these two should stay in the palace first."
Qi Sheng looked at me suspiciously, frowned slightly, thought about it and said, "Forget it, take it with me, and feel more at ease."
When the emperor opened his mouth, he didn't dare to disobey, but I honestly answered "yes", but in my heart I despised his capricious temper.
