Biography of Concubine Shujia

Chapter 137

"Jing'er is awesome. Go, bring your concubine mother in. She couldn't bear to disturb you to ask questions outside the palace. She stood there for a long time."

When Shi Niang came back to her senses, she heard the emperor's voice, lowered her head to hide the expression on her face, calmed down, and was about to step into the main hall.

After listening to the emperor's order, the sixth prince greeted him.He trotted all the way, and when he saw Shi Niang, he slowed down instead, stepped forward lightly, and after greeting Shi Niang, he stretched out his hand to pull Shi Niang's sleeve, and looked curiously at Shi Niang's belly with peach blossom eyes.

"Concubine mother, is my brother good today?" Mu Jing had a serious look in his eyes, and then said to Ten Niang's stomach, "Your brother must be good, mother and concubine work hard, so don't be naughty. When you grow up, brother will teach you Read the Three Character Classic."

Shi Niang raised her hand, and Mu Jing hurriedly put down the sleeves she was holding, fearing to hurt her mother and concubine.

Shi Niang touched the sixth prince's head with her hand, "My sister will be angry when she hears this. Doesn't Jing'er like my sister?" Shi Niang would rather have a girl in her belly.For the three princes, not only the concubines in the harem would taboo her, but also the previous dynasty would criticize her a lot, and the emperor would also be suspicious of her and her son.

"But, mother and concubine really have a younger brother in her stomach." Mu Jing insisted, "Father will like younger brother, and elder brother and Jing'er also like younger brother." Mu Jing's words surprised Shi Niang.

"Okay, mother concubine said you are so obedient today, obediently go to take a nap. It turns out that you want to wait for mother concubine to go to Yangxin Palace to trouble your father?" Ten Niang understood that the emperor came to Yaohua Palace purpose and reason.

It is likely that the sixth prince went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to look for the emperor, and the emperor came to Yaohua Palace because he was unable to entangle him.

The sixth prince loved to cling to his elder brother and respect and love his father since he was a child.Over the years, the emperor still loves to tease his youngest son.

The first few princes born out of Emperor Rui gradually grew up and were able to go to the court to listen to the government. Knowing the difference between monarch and minister, they didn't seldom go to the emperor's presence.

Among the remaining little princes, Mu Jing is the biggest, so Mu Jing is not afraid of him, and always loves to ask him for advice.Emperor Rui watched his youngest son come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation with books or pens and paper to ask for advice, but he let him.When he is not busy, he often calls the Sixth Prince to teach in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

It's just that today, with her son going so fast, those who didn't know thought she was using her son to fight Concubine De.But these words cannot be told to his son in front of the emperor.

Seeing Shi Niang's expression, the sixth prince defended in a low voice, "Aniang, my son misses my father. After coming back from Luo City, my father hasn't taught my son calligraphy for a long time."

Said and looked at Shi Niang eagerly, "You don't allow your son to go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation these days, so..."

"You!" Ten Niang patted the sixth prince's head with her finger, "Your father is busy going to court, and he is just trying to make trouble."

"I don't have a son. Concubine Demu has also gone to the Hall of Mental Cultivation. The emperor is not angry at being disturbed. It must be that the emperor is already busy." The sixth prince grabbed the hand of the concubine mother and blinked at his concubine. .

Shi Niang laughed, there are no simple children in this palace.Before that, she was still thinking that Mu Jingxu was unintentional, but looking at the child's actions, it was clear that she had heard about the emperor's call for Concubine De, and she did it on purpose.

At such a young age, he knew how to win his father's favor, and knew how to use his own advantages better than his older brothers and sisters.Either way, I thought that I would teach him things after he was formally enlightened, so my father and brother would teach him.

Shi Niang stopped talking and pinched Mu Jing's palm, meaning "don't play too much".Mu Jing squeezed back, and pulled Shi Niang into the hall.

When Shi Niang walked into the hall, she was stopped by the emperor before she knelt down to pay her respects, "You are heavy, so those vain rituals will be avoided. Yao'er, go and help your mother and concubine to sit. Your younger brother's small body will not damage your mother." The concubine's sleeves are fine."

The emperor teased his youngest son in a pleasant manner.Seeing the youngest son glaring at him angrily, he was even happier, "Xiao Liu, is the father wrong?"

"Father!" Mu Jing let go of Ten Niang, ran to the emperor's side quickly, grabbed the emperor's leg, and was about to climb up.

"Jing'er, don't be rude!" Shi Niang glared at the third prince, you are such a good brother.

The third prince touched his nose, supported his mother and concubine without speaking, but praised his younger brother in his heart.His younger brother is the hope and bargaining chip of his mother and concubine and their brothers and sisters. What he can do is to do his best to make his father recognize, trust and love his younger brother.

It's still early to talk about recognition and trust, so the younger brother has to be the most favored prince, the most caring youngest son of the father, and the candidate for the prince in the heart of the father.

He watched his father teach his younger brother and lead his younger brother to deal with government affairs, and he had a vague perception in his heart, but before the dust settled, there were also many variables, so he should not take it lightly.

His father is in good health, Jing'er is still young, don't worry, the future will be long.

The third prince ignored Shi Niang's eyes as if nothing had happened, but the emperor had no time to pay attention to the wits of the mother and son.

He scooped up Mu Jing with a big hand, "Why, you are angry with your father, and you want your father to hug you?"

The sixth prince put his arms around the emperor's neck, "Then father put me down, hum."

The emperor was not annoyed, and put the sixth prince next to him, "Sit obediently, and write ten big characters after dinner."

The sixth prince wanted to cry at this punishment, but he had already written big characters today, and if he wrote again, his hand would break.Father must be teasing him.

The emperor ignored his youngest son, and stretched out his hand to Ten Niang who was approaching, "Come on, girl, let me take a good look at you."

He took Ten Niang's hand, took her to the empty seat beside him, and glanced at the third prince.

Mu Yao tactfully let go, turned around and sat beside his younger brother, far away from his mother and concubine.The father and emperor are probably planning to let him take care of his younger brother and take away the job of taking care of his mother and concubine himself.

Shi Niang was pulled by the emperor, and after sitting down, Fang smiled at the emperor, "The emperor has lost a lot these days, no matter how important the government is, you must pay attention to your body."

"The bird's nest porridge you asked Ruo Min to send is not bad, you have a heart." The emperor stroked Shi Niang's head, "It's you, pay more attention on weekdays. Why did you hear from your palace that you went to Nanhuachi today, feeling bored gone?"

"The imperial doctor said, it's good for the child to move around more." Shiniang hid from the emperor's hand, and was in the child's face, being patted on the head like Jing'er, feeling uncomfortable after all.

"After all, it's cold, and the water over there is gloomy and cold. If you're bored, go to the Royal Garden for a walk. The white pear blossoms in the greenhouse are in bloom. I wonder if you'll be lucky enough to invite Madam to enjoy the flowers?"

"The Royal Garden is weird at this time of year. If you are interested, I will accompany you to see it." When Shi Niang heard Bai Lihua, the sarcasm flashed across her eyes.

The emperor still likes to use this gorgeous flower to show his love for him. After so many years, he always does this. After a long time, it is difficult not to get tired of it.What's more, I don't really like the pure white and pink pear blossoms.

"I was afraid that you would be bored, so I just didn't want to go." The emperor's voice was a little cold, and he was a little irritable when he remembered what happened in that year.

"Father, didn't you say that the mother and concubine will pass on the meal when they come back?" The third prince saw that the two had cooled down, and interrupted at the right time, "My son is hungry. Mother and concubine, I want to eat the eight treasures from your palace."

"Son wants to eat sweet-scented osmanthus and taro." Mu Jing saw his brother's behavior and chimed in.

"Pass the meal." The emperor ordered, "First serve the lady a bowl of medicinal food."

The palace servants put the prepared dinner on the table, and Si Jin handed over a small amount of Gu medicinal food to Shi Niang.

Shi Niang silently took the medicinal meal that she had prepared earlier, looked at the thing in her hand with disgust, and was reluctant to do it for a long time.

The emperor's voice came from next to his ear, "Emperor Zheng, let him go to Ganye Temple in a few days and show it to the queen. You know it well, and drink the medicinal food prescribed by him. They are the mothers of several children." Don't be afraid of suffering like a child, and don't eat when you lose your temper."

"The concubine knows." Ten Niang angrily finished the medicinal meal, put down the bowl, and wanted to vomit.He covered his mouth with a veil, endured it, and suppressed the smell of medicine.

The emperor handed a small cup of sweet-scented sweet-scented osmanthus to Shi Niang, "Use some to suppress the bitterness."

Ten Niang ate a few candied taro and drank a few sips of osmanthus syrup before putting down the spoon.

"Hurry up and eat, the concubine is fine." Shi Niang looked at Ruo Min, who stepped forward to pick up food for the emperor.

A dinner is spent in the royal family's emphasis on "eat without words".

After dinner, the third prince took the sixth prince's hand to leave, and before leaving, he said to his father, "Father, my son took the sixth brother to my son today. He ate too much tonight. It’s just good for digestion.”

When the sons all retired, the emperor and concubine sat in the hall and drank tea.

Ten Niang held a cup of tea, took a few sips and put it down.The palace servants around her watched closely, and in the past they didn't tell her to drink more tea, for fear that she would be sleepy at night and would not sleep well.Today, I had a few sips with the emperor, and Ruomin was always watching from the sidelines.

"I asked you to get up and walk?" Seeing Shi Niang's troubled look, the emperor stretched out his hand to pull her.Just after eating, I was so sleepy.I woke up in the middle of the night, and it was time to make a fuss again.

"No, I'm tired." Shi Niang was so sleepy that she didn't want to move, and she didn't look like she did when she was in front of her son when facing the emperor.

"Your master is always like this?" the emperor asked Ruo Min, "Is this sleepy, is your body okay?"

"Returning to the emperor, Imperial Physician Zheng said that the master was tired a few days ago. Sleep can help the little master replenish his strength. If the master is sleepy, it doesn't matter if you sleep more." Ruomin replied, "tonight, the master is You stood in Nanhuachi for a while, and then sat in Taoranting to enjoy the scene. Mr. Lu next to you came to ask about Tong Shi, and it took a while longer for the master to come back late."

"Xiao Luzi, when did you bother your good master?" The emperor looked a little cold.

"Master, this servant is wronged. Didn't you ask this servant to send a message to Master Jia that he would come to Yaohua Palace for dinner this afternoon. The servant came here to deliver the message, but who knows that Master Jia is not in the palace. Aunt Ruomin is not there either, Jia Miss Si Jin who is beside the master hastily came back."

"Si Jin said that Eunuch Lu came to pass a message, and the emperor summoned Mrs. Dezhuang in the Hall of Mental Cultivation." Ten Niang pointed out, isn't this the news that you came to pass on your master's behalf?

"It's true that the master is accompanied by Xuande, but before the slave could finish his words, Miss Si Jin left in a hurry." Xiao Luzi said injustice, but he was proud in his heart.Don't lie to you like this, don't deliberately induce the eldest maid in your palace to make you misunderstand, and then let the emperor vent this resentment with a petty temper, you don't know how long you will be angry with the master.

The emperor is the master, and the emperor can't make mistakes.So this life, don't have to be more accommodating.Today, the master summoned Mrs. Li of Dezhuang, and he also put the sixth prince into the palace.

Otherwise, when Li Shi's mother and son regain their favor, with their mother and son's crazy personality, I, the head eunuch who once offended Li Shi and secretly gave to Mrs. Shujia, will not have a good life.

"It's their fault too. Your Majesty, didn't you summon Sister De during the day? Even if you summoned Sister De, the Emperor should go to Linzhi Palace. There should be a door reserved for you! To save the sisters in this palace from saying, The concubine is relying on Jinger and her own pregnancy to bully you!" Ten Niang rolled her eyes at Xiaoluzi, and stretched out her hand to push the emperor.

"Come on, little vinegar jar." The emperor stretched out his hand to pull her, "I don't want to go out for a walk, so I move around in the palace. I just asked, but you have a lot to say."

"Since you think I'm annoying, go find someone who doesn't bother you." Shi Niang said angrily.She was pregnant and didn't want to get bored with the emperor, so her tone of voice became quite aggressive.

"Come here, my little girl." The emperor looked at her dangerously, "Stop making trouble, and have a good talk with me."
