Red makeup against the world

Chapter 231
The distance from Chunling Palace to "Baolin Garden" is not short. If you follow the normal pace, it will take at least half an hour to go back and forth.

But Wu Guangqi only spent two cups of tea on this trip back and forth.

It has been many years since the palace has not given birth to an imperial heir. Although Emperor Qinglong didn't care about it, seeing what Empress Dowager Xiao meant, he was still concerned.Wu Guangqi used his housekeeping skills this time, until he returned to Chunling Palace and shouted the word "medicine" before he let out his breath and slipped to the ground.

Several young eunuchs quickly caught him, and one of them rushed down the corridor to report.

"Are you taking medicine?" Imperial Physician Yu's face turned pale, but since the emperor had made a decision, he didn't hesitate any longer.With a wave of her hand, the female doctor who was on standby picked up the medicine that had already been prepared and entered the delivery room.

Court Envoy Zhao said nothing, it was the emperor's decision and he had no right to question it.

Only Concubine Fu Xian was not surprised to hear this decision.

As the oldest concubine in the palace at the moment, she accompanied the emperor all the way from the hidden residence, and experienced many winds and rains.

She can see most clearly the former concubine Jiang's and the former prince's deep and affectionate husband and wife.

At that time, the prince was afraid of Jiang Shi being melted if he held it in his mouth, and afraid of falling when he held it in his hands. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell the affection in his eyes.The entire Prince's Mansion was decided by Jiang's one word, and he never had the slightest intention to go against it.

In the eyes of those two, her side concubine is just a transparent decoration, used to stop people from saying that the princess is jealous.In order not to create trouble for the Jiang family, he even specially found the daughter of a small family like her.

But with such affection, when the late emperor made up his mind, in order to consolidate the crown prince's power, he wanted to give the eldest daughter of Duke Dingguo to the crown prince as his concubine.It was also the prince who loved the Jiang family to the bottom of his heart, and resolutely came forward to depose the Jiang family and sent him to the Royal Taimiao, which made the late emperor more satisfied with him, and since then he has secured the position of the crown prince.

She still remembered that the day before Jiang's departure, it was raining heavily, and Jiang knelt in the rain, wanting to see him again in a sad voice.But how ruthless he was, the door was closed tightly without making a sound.

The Crown Prince's Mansion that night was shrouded in an atmosphere of sadness and despair, and Jiang Shi was unable to see him for the last time, so he had no choice but to leave desolately under the urging of the Clan Mansion.

How long has it been since I thought of that night?Concubine Fu Xian shuddered, maybe the atmosphere now was somewhat similar to that night?
The emperor can be so ruthless to Jiang Shi, that mere Shi Xinmei in the delivery room, not to mention that she has been sentenced to death, even if she is not, she will not be pitied by him, right?

Looking at the gradually darkening sky, it turned out that it was so late before I knew it.

Hong Xing took a sapphire blue cloak with crabapple pattern and put it on for her. This cloak was her favorite, the color was very positive, blue like a sapphire.But now that I saw it in my eyes, I felt it was a bit dazzling, and said softly: "Change to a plain one!"

Hong Xing was startled, and instantly understood her thoughts.Shi Xinmei in the delivery room is probably dying, the empress is kind-hearted, although she can't do anything for her right now, she avoids some taboos in her clothes and expresses her condolences.

Shi Xinmei was lying on the delivery bed, her consciousness was in a daze, and the pain under her body had already made her numb.She seems to have returned to her childhood, and she is enjoying herself at the feet of A Niang. How innocent and happy she was at that time!

The nurse took away the ginseng slices she was holding, helped her half sit up, and poured a bowl of decoction into her belly.

She swallowed it instinctively, and within less than a cup of tea, big cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her stomach was cut into pieces like a thousand knives, and the long-lost scream resounded over the sky of Chunling Palace.

Hearing this miserable scream, Concubine Fu Xian couldn't help shaking.Hong Xing put on a light autumn satin cloak for her again, and said: "It's windy, empress, take care of yourself."

Concubine Fu Xian nodded silently, assuming she was too cold.

In the delivery room, the female doctor said pleasantly: "It's in the basin, it's in the basin!"

Imperial Physician Yu stood close to the door of the delivery room, and said, "Hurry up, hurry up! Hurry up and massage, within a quarter of an hour, you must give birth!"

In "Baolin Garden", as the sky gets darker, the gongs and drums on the stage gradually stop, and the birthday banquet is put on in the hall like flowing water.

Emperor Qinglong supported Empress Dowager Xiao to walk in front, Empress Cao followed closely behind, surrounded by princes, princesses, and concubines, and took their seats one after another.

The prince raised his wine glass first, and said sincerely: "I wish my father and emperor good fortune forever, and live as long as the heavens!"

Looking at the son he loves the most, the corners of his eyes and brows are very similar to Wei Wei, so outstanding.Emperor Qinglong smiled and said: "Come, let's drink this cup together!"

King Qi, Princess Zhaoyang, and King Chu also toasted one after another, and Emperor Qinglong drank one by one.

Empress Cao's eyes flashed a trace of imperceptible sadness. In the eyes of the emperor, only the son of the prince was the only one.Before last month, King Qianyang had to be added.

As for such a big matter of King Qianyang's rebellion, the prince, as his elder brother, only closed the house for a month to thank the banquet, and the emperor didn't even blame the prince.Under the strong suppression and firm support of Emperor Qinglong, it did not have any impact on the status of the prince.

But Empress Cao has seen the prince's temperament for more than ten years, how can she not know?
Under the prince's gentle appearance, there is a cruel and tyrannical heart hidden deep.Especially for herself who robbed him of his biological mother's status, she has long hated her to the bone.Every time she sees him smiling and calling her "mother queen" without any warmth in his eyes, Empress Cao can't help but feel chills in her heart.

She lowered her eyes slightly, and now she looked full of flowers.His position in the harem is stable, and his children are all promising and promising. Although they are not favored by the emperor, they have due respect.

But what about after a hundred years from the emperor?If the crown prince really inherits the Datong, then his mother and son will die without a place to bury him.

It's up to me not to fight, this big man.Not for myself, but also for those children.Is it just waiting to go to the underworld together?

Emperor Qinglong drank a few glasses of wine, and spoke a lot more casually, and accompanied Empress Dowager Xiao to chat casually.

Seeing the emperor's easy-going attitude, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became lively.For a time, the fragrance of clothes, shadows on the temples, jingle of rings, intertwined cups and swaying cups, and delicate swallows are the scene of the prosperous age that can't be finished.

In the city of Luoyang, the lights are just on at this moment, and it is very lively.

On both sides of Luoshui, there are people from the capital who are traveling with their families.There are big ladies surrounded by servants, there are also small groups of romantic scholars, and the sons and daughters of powerful families also go out together. This annual lively event can be enjoyed all night long, who would miss it!It is the holy birthday of the emperor, and the joy of all the people.

The Jingzhaoyin Mansion had anticipated the crowds, and dispatched all the government officials and police officers to form teams to patrol the streets to maintain order.The water dragon team is fully armed and on standby at any time.

The six armies of the Beiya were also dispatched, and there were three armies patrolling inside and outside the palace.Wu Sheng personally led a team of the Shenwu Army to patrol around the imperial city.

Today is Emperor Qinglong's big day, we must ensure that no accident can happen, disturbing the emperor's holy life is a serious crime.
