Empress, she doesn't want to fight

Chapter 30 What Reward Do You Want?

Emperor Yong'an hugged the child wrapped in the quilt with stiff hands, and he didn't dare to move for a while. Although he had had several princesses, he had hugged them when they were young, but the children were only two or three years old. After that, it was the first time for him to hold such a small child.

But at this moment, the child in his arms suddenly opened his eyes, and being stared at by those eyes, Emperor Yong'an suddenly softened, this is his child, the continuation of his blood, Emperor Yong'an tremblingly said : "He...he opened his eyes!"

"Really?" Jiang Man exclaimed in surprise, and leaned over to look, and sure enough, she saw the infant child with a pair of black grape-like eyes.

"Mrs. Liu and the others said that children usually open their eyes only two to three days after birth. I didn't expect the emperor to open his eyes immediately after he hugged him, and he kept staring at the emperor." Jiang Man asked softly in the arms of Emperor Yong'an. The child said, "Little guy, do you know that it is your father who is holding you?"

Emperor Yong'an was even more happy when he heard the words, he hugged the child and said cheerfully: "He must know."

The two of them teased the child like this for a while, until the child in his arms yawned a little, Emperor Yong'an reluctantly handed over the child in his arms to Lianqiu, and asked her to find a wet nurse to put the child to sleep.

When Lianqiu took the child away, Emperor Yong'an looked at Jiang Man with a smile that hadn't dissipated, "It's a great achievement for my concubine to give birth to a healthy prince. What reward does my concubine want?"

"Can I get any reward I want?" Jiang Man said happily.

Emperor Yong'an said jokingly: "My concubine, tell me first, if my concubine wants the stars in the sky, even if I want to give them to my concubine, I can't do it."

Jiang Man pouted and said in dissatisfaction: "Look at what the emperor said, is this concubine such a messy person?"

Emperor Yong'an laughed, and said: "I was wrong, Aifei is the most sensible person, how can she be such a messy person, so what reward does Aifei want?"

Jiang Man originally wanted to ask Emperor Yong'an to agree to hand over the second prince to Guo Chongyi's upbringing, but she changed her mind after thinking about it, "I want the emperor to agree to raise the second prince until the full moon."

Emperor Yong'an laughed and said, "That's what I originally thought, this doesn't count, and I allow you to mention it again."

Jiang Man didn't know if Emperor Yong'an really thought that way in the first place, but she was still very surprised to hear Emperor Yong'an say this. She was already very content to keep the second prince until the full moon.As for other rewards, she couldn't ask Emperor Yong'an not to hand over the second prince to other high-ranking concubines anyway, so she had nothing to ask for.

Pretending to ponder for a while, Jiang Man said: "Then I beg the emperor to allow my sister to visit me in the palace. When I was pregnant, my sister was very worried about me. I want to tell my sister that I am blind. The emperor blesses and gave birth to the second prince safely."

Emperor Yong'an readily agreed, "Okay, I'll send someone to deliver the decree to your sister later." After speaking, Emperor Yong'an asked Jiang Man, "Do you have any thoughts about the choice of concubine for the second prince?"

Jiang Man smiled, and replied: "It's all up to the emperor. The second prince is the emperor's own child. I believe that no matter what the emperor arranges, it is for the second prince's good."

Emperor Yong'an was quite satisfied with Jiang Man's answer, he nodded, and said a few words of concern to Jiang Man before leaving from Yufu Garden.

After sending Emperor Yong'an away, Wan Dong asked Jiang Man suspiciously, "Master, the emperor asked you, why didn't you tell the emperor that you wanted Guo Chongyi to educate the second prince?"

Jiang Man explained: "The emperor values ​​the second prince now, even if I don't say it, the emperor will think about it for the second prince. If I say it, maybe the emperor will dislike the second prince, so why should I bother?"

"It's the servant who is stupid."

Jiang Man didn't speak, she thought about Emperor Yong'an's attitude again.After the first prince was born, Emperor Yong'an gave the first prince a name on the spot. It seemed that he was very honored and favored by the eldest prince, but he didn't have the status of Jin Ji Zhaorong. The second prince was born and Emperor Yong'an hadn't mentioned the name yet, but she still I think Emperor Yong'an really likes the second prince, but I don't know what Emperor Yong'an thinks?Or maybe she felt wrong, Emperor Yong'an's liking for the second prince was just pretending?

But this should not be possible. If she has some great family background, she is worthy of Emperor Yong'an acting in front of her. She is just the daughter of a fifth-rank official family. If Emperor Yong'an doesn't really like the second prince, there is no need for him Acting in front of her.

Not only Jiang Man didn't understand, but other people in the harem also couldn't understand.

Said that Emperor Yong'an didn't pay much attention to Jiang Man and the second prince, and Emperor Yong'an went to Yufu Garden for two consecutive days to say that he paid attention to it. It has been a day since the child was born, and the imperial decree about the child's name and Jiang Man's promotion has not yet come out.

In the Changchun Palace, Concubine Jiang tapped her teacup with her hand painted with scarlet danko, and asked Haitang, "What do you think the emperor thinks?"

Haitang thought for a while and said: "This servant feels that the emperor still values ​​the second prince, but Jiang Cairen may not be liked by the emperor."

Concubine Jiang nodded, she thought the same way, although yesterday she felt that the emperor valued Jiang Cairen for a moment, but after thinking about it, she thought too much.It's just that I don't know how the emperor arranged for the second prince. She mentioned it to the emperor tactfully once before. Although the emperor didn't agree, he didn't refuse either. She thinks she is still very promising.

If the second prince is raised under her name, then it is no matter what the eldest prince is. In terms of status, the second prince must be more noble. If she sits in that position, then the second prince is the eldest son. It's a little in the way.

It was also Jiang Cairen who was lucky. She had been prepared before, but who would have thought that something unexpected would happen suddenly.

If the second prince can't be raised under her name, then she has to think about how to go next.

And Ji Zhaorong in Yuxiu Palace also received a letter from outside the palace. In the letter, Mrs. Ji comforted her and said: "Even if Jiang Cai gave birth to a prince, it is impossible for the second prince to threaten the status of the eldest prince. You should focus on the eldest prince and Song Yuyi, the one in Song Yuyi's belly is the one who can threaten the status of the eldest prince and will become a stumbling block on your way to the top."

After reading the letter, Ji Zhaorong calmed down a little, but then he gritted his teeth again, "Song Yuyi!"

When the second prince died for the third time, although Emperor Yong'an rewarded the second prince with a lot of things, the matter of Jiang Man's status, the matter of the second prince's naming and the issue of the second prince's upbringing were still not mentioned.

Everyone in the harem couldn't understand what Emperor Yong'an was thinking, but no one left behind the congratulatory gift that should be given to Yufuyuan.
