The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 423 Lame ([-]) ①
The days of summer are already sweltering, and the cicadas and insects are called rustling, disturbing people's dreams.

At that time, Wanyu was lying on the warm seat and reading the jade tablet given by the emperor earlier, she looked out of the window and saw the flowers and plants growing in disorder in the courtyard, so on a whim, she ordered Yunchan to take the scissors and go to the courtyard to trim it. flowers and plants.

After about a stick of incense, Shuang Ruo hurried back to the palace.

Wan Yu glanced at her, smiled, and handed her the scissors: "I'm back."

Shuangruo took the scissors from Wanlai, saw that she had trimmed the dead branches and leaves, and quickly called the palace people to clean it up.Seeing Wanyu looking at the jasmine plant with a calm smile on her face, she said: "Your Majesty trimmed off the broken branches and leaves. Although this jasmine plant looks lonely now, it has a strong fragrance."

"What's the use of the flowers on the surface?" She smiled, raised her eyebrows and asked Shuangruo, "The news has spread?"

Shuang Ruo nodded and said: "Naturally, Que Zhen heard the private gossip of the servant girl, and ran back to Chengqian Palace in a hurry. When she got there, she tripped over the flower pot under her feet, and there was a big commotion."

Wan Lai said: "Do you think the imperial concubine will let her go?"

"Of course not."

Wan Lai lightly stroked the pure white jasmine petals, leaned closer to the flower and took a deep breath, and said happily: "Looking for someone to watch Cheng Qian Palace carefully, I am afraid that there will be a big commotion on the day Yu promised to give birth. "

However, the news that Wanyu in Chengqian Palace was looking forward to did not come until the night of July 25th.

That day the emperor was staying in the Changchun Palace, and had already fallen asleep at night, but he heard Liang Jiugong whispered outside the palace: "Your Majesty, Yu Xu of Chengqian Palace has made a lot of noise, and I am afraid she is about to give birth."

The emperor was in a deep sleep, so of course he didn't hear this sentence, but Wannao's ears sounded like the wind, she immediately woke up the emperor, and said with a happy face: "Your Majesty, Chengqian Palace is happy."

Waiting for the emperor to change his regular clothes, the two rushed into Chengqian Palace together.

When they came, Rong Yue and Ru Ge were waiting together in the main hall, seeing the emperor coming, they rushed to salute.

Wan Yu glanced at Rong Yue, and with a sneer on her face, she also greeted her: "The imperial concubine, Jin An, how about Yu's promise?"

Rong Yue narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Wan Yu: "What? Concubine Wan is very concerned about Yu agreeing to this child."

Wan Yu smiled and said: "What about the imperial concubine, the child Yu promised is the emperor's child, so what's so strange about us being nervous about the emperor's child?"

The emperor laughed and said that the two were always bickering and joking. After ordering everyone to sit down, he looked at Ru Ge with peach blossoms protecting his lower abdomen, and said: "In the future, you will be a woman, and you have to do many things early. Prepare. When Dai Yu promised to give birth to an heir safely, he must learn from her."

Ru Ge stood up, bowed respectfully, and said shyly: "What the emperor said is very true, and this concubine has exactly the intention. I'm afraid that sister Yu Wan will dislike my concubine's vulgarity and won't talk to her concubine too much."

The emperor laughed and said: "Yuwan's temperament follows the imperial concubine, she is the most gentle, she will not be as you said."

After waiting for about half an hour, he heard a loud cry of a baby from the side hall, the emperor was overjoyed and hurried to the outside, Ru Ge followed closely behind, but Rong Yue and Wan Yu leisurely walked side by side.

"If my sister wants to raise Yu and agree to this child in the future, it will be hard work." Rong Yue said with a little deep meaning.

Wan Yu also smiled and said: "My sister never thought of raising Yu and promised this child. In the past, Wen Yin's death, she couldn't escape the guilt. How can my sister be willing to raise her child?" She leaned closer to Rong Yue's ear, and said softly: "Did my sister think that my sister has such a heart after listening to the gossip of the servants?"

Seeing her bewitching smile, Rong Yue's heart tightened.

Could it be that Yu Wan didn't ask Wan Lai to raise her heir that day?
Then what was she asking for when she entered Changchun Palace?
Without thinking too much, everyone went outside the side hall, only to see the midwife coming out alone, without the emperor's heir in her arms.

The emperor panicked when he saw this, and hurriedly asked, "Where's the child?"

The nanny didn't dare to look directly at the emperor's face, she just knelt down and replied in a trembling voice: "The little master gave birth to a little elder brother for the emperor safely."

Hearing these words, he put his heart in his stomach, and urged: "Hurry up and bring the child here for me to have a look at."

The nanny seemed a bit embarrassed, and knelt down without moving. The emperor was suspicious, and walked into the palace regardless of the blood in the delivery room.

But the scene in front of him made him startled.

Yuwan was exhausted after giving birth, her complexion was pale and she lay flat on the bed, she didn't even have the strength to speak.

The little elder brother was lying flat in the arms of another nun, but he saw that the nun's hands were covered with blood, and she was carefully supporting the little elder brother's right foot.

At first I just thought it was the mother's blood, but I didn't want to take a closer look, which suddenly made my stomach churn.

The little elder brother's right foot seemed to have been broken by someone, and the white joints were exposed. The child was crying heart-piercingly. The emperor couldn't bear to take another look. He turned his back and said angrily: " Why is this?"

The mother hurriedly said: "The emperor forgives the sin, elder brother was born like this, slaves have been delivering babies for several years, this is the first time this has happened to me."

Seeing the emperor like this, Rong Yue, Wan Lai and Ru Ge surrounded him.

Seeing this, Ru Ge burst into tears, and seeing Yu Wan struggling to stand up to take a look at the child, she lay down in front of Yu Wan's bed sobbing and comforted her: "Sister, don't look, sister"

On the other hand, Rong Yue was very hurt and shook her head again and again: "Hey, this child will suffer in the future. If the child is like this, he will have to find someone to treat him. Doctor Liu is a master of gynecology, so he is determined not to be good at it. My concubine early in the morning Zhang Kui is arranged to wait outside the palace, may the emperor want Xuanren to come and have a look?"

The emperor was heartbroken, he couldn't care less about other things, he just said what Rong Yue said, and walked out of the palace staggeringly.

But at this time, Wanyu carefully looked at the child's injury, and suddenly raised her voice: "For such a serious injury, it may be futile to treat it with bone grafting, and the root cause of the disease will always be left behind. Doctor Zhang's medical skills are superb, but for surgical injuries, it is still a matter of fact." It's not as good as Imperial Physician Bai who is always serving the courtiers and concubines." She glanced at Rong Yue coldly, and then said to the emperor: "Now Imperial Physician Bai is waiting outside the palace, the emperor may invite the two of you to treat them together. "

That Zhang Kui was originally Rong Yue's personal physician, after receiving his treatment, even if the child's injury was caused by external force, he would definitely keep it secret.

From that day when Yuwan entered the Changchun Palace inexplicably, Wanyu knew that she must be plotted by others.Just now when he saw the child, a smile flashed across Ru Ge's face, and he knew that the two of them were not compatible, it must be that Ru Ge intentionally caused Rong Yue to suspect Yu Wan's sincerity.

So she ordered Shuangruo to spread rumors in private, and she saw Quezhen come out of the palace to inquire, so she listened to the words.

The words reached Rong Yue's ears, how could she sit still?She would never allow herself to raise Yu Wan's child, if so, it would be tantamount to pushing Yu Wan to Wan Yu, then the story of her murder of Wen Yin in the past would spread from Yu Wan's mouth to the Sixth Palace sooner or later.

However, Yuwan is already a month old, if she slips out of the usual way, she will definitely be involved.Only by making it traumatized and damaged, will the emperor's idea of ​​moving to the palace be broken.

He was originally a sick child, how could the emperor be willing to separate him from his biological mother?

However, all of this was in Wan Lai's calculations early on.

　Remarks ①: Yinyou, the seventh son of Emperor Kangxi, was the No.15 son for the first time. He was born on July 19, Gengshen, the 25th year of Kangxi. His biological mother was Dai Jiashi (the future concubine Cheng).
