Chapter 197: Chunjia's Hesitation

Now that the emperor has five sons and two daughters, and the emperor is still young, there must be other concubines who will be pregnant and give birth one after another. It is said that although Wei Hengyan's birth is more important because of the high status of the birth mother, it is not necessary. No.

So the imperial physician asked questions, but felt that Chunjia should be inclined to protect Wei Hengyan.

However, Chunjia pondered for a while when he heard the words, and ordered Yanyin: "Call all the imperial physicians from the imperial hospital for women and infants."

After saying this, he said to the imperial physician, "I want both Zhaorong and the emperor's heir, so you must do your best. If things cannot be done..."

He paused at this point, and Yun Fenghuang interrupted abruptly: "If something cannot be done, it is natural that Zhaorong is the most important thing. Zhaorong is still young, and the future will be long."

Looking at Chunjia at the end, he said softly, "Do you think so?"

Chunjia looked at her sideways, and after a while, she gave a faint "hmm", which was a tacit agreement.

Yun Fenghuang breathed a sigh of relief, and the imperial physician who was at a loss said, "Why don't you hurry up and look at Zhao Rong?"

The imperial doctor saluted as if he had received an amnesty, and the surrounding concubines saw this scene in their eyes, and their expressions were a little dazed.

Especially Luo Hanyi and other new concubines looked at Chunjia with complicated eyes for a while.

Wei Hengyan's family background was similar to theirs. Her grandmother was still the eldest princess of Dongxing. Hengyan... If Concubine Xian hadn't stood up to speak for Wei Hengyan just now, how would he have chosen?

Do you choose to protect Wei Hengyan like the concubine Xian, or choose the emperor's heir?

Will he treat Wei Hengyan like this, and others, such as Luo Hanyi and Ouyang Fulu, will there be any exceptions?

The concubines were silent, and they were in a bad mood.

Although after entering the palace these days, he knew that Chunjia was by no means a genuinely gentle and honest person, and that he would not be able to defeat Ji Shi if he was like that—but seeing his indifference with his own eyes, he still felt sad and hesitant.

...The imperial concubine ignored the ups and downs of the concubines, ordered the imperial physician to continue waiting.

When it was approaching Zishi, the palace people from Chunlan Palace and Jiashan Palace who came to wait for the news came forward to speak together, urging Chunjia to focus on political affairs and go to rest first: "Even the empress Zhaorong definitely doesn't want it because of her. The delivery has delayed your coming to court tomorrow. Besides, there are concubines Xian and others sitting here, so you will not be delayed if you go to resettle."

Chunjia thought for a while and agreed.

After he left, the lords of the palaces also left one after another, only Yun Fenghuang and Concubine Rui were left, because they were the assistants of the sixth palace, they had to stay.

At this time, Wei Hengyan's wailing had clearly subsided, and anyone would feel that the situation was not good, and Concubine Rui's expression was very uneasy: "Ms. Xianfei, you said Zhaorong...would she be all right?"

Yun Fenghuang glanced at her: "Zhao Rongji has his own aura."

Concubine Rui thought that this meant that Wei Hengyan could only resign himself to fate now, she couldn't help biting her lip, and subconsciously looked towards the side hall - that was where the Fifth Prince was placed.

Yun Fenghuang noticed it and sneered in his heart.

Of the five princes in the palace today, the eldest prince under the name of Concubine Shu is of course the most valued. In the absence of a legitimate son, this child has undoubtedly the highest status

The second prince and the third prince were naturally excluded from the possibility of inheriting the great line because of their biological mother.

The fourth prince was born of Concubine Xie, in terms of seniority and birth mother's status, they are all below the eldest prince. In addition, Concubine Xie is far behind the eldest prince's concubine and adoptive mother in terms of favor. It can be said that as long as the eldest prince is around for a day, the fourth prince will generally have little chance.

Under such circumstances, the fifth prince, who was born only two days ago, was not taken seriously at first, but once the fifth prince's mother and concubine Wei Hengyan had a dystocia, it would be different.

How can the prince who is not yet full moon have no mother and concubine to take care of him?

Wei Hengyan's status is Zhaorong, according to the tacit agreement in the palace, she is gone, and the fifth prince can only be taken over by concubines above nine concubines.

Among them, Yun Fenghuang has both sons and daughters, and Concubine Xie has her own flesh and blood, so she should not fight for it.

The rest of the original Concubine Xuan, Jieyu Luo Hanyi, has only one daughter under her knees; Concubine Rui and Mrs. Yaoning both adopt the prince born of the daughter of the Ji family; .

Even though the emperor is still young, he will have heirs and sons in the future, and the concubine princes will naturally not be so expensive, but who knows what will happen in the future?

From Concubine Rui's point of view, even if she sat in that seat and gave birth to her own prince in the future, there's nothing wrong with adopting a few princes in advance. It can not only help her own flesh and blood, but also win over a group of people when she grows up for marriage, right?

She lowered her head and thought for a while, then raised her head, only to see Yun Fenghuang looking at her thoughtfully, she was startled: "Your Majesty?"

"..." Yun Fenghuang didn't say anything, and looked away blankly, which made Concubine Rui a little flustered, wondering if Concubine Xian had noticed her thoughts just now?

But this is not easy to ask, so I can only comfort myself with composure: "This palace is just thinking about it, and the concubine Xian has no proof, so what can I do with this palace?"

But her thinking was in vain, because when it was daylight, there was a cry in the delivery room that hadn't heard much for a while, and Granny Wen, relieved for a moment, came out to show them a swaddling baby. It is said that Zhaorong gave birth to a little princess.

The little princess's wrinkled cry was also a little weak, which looked very pitiful.

Yun Fenghuang was used to Zhaoqing Princess Yuxue's cute appearance, so she looked down on the child a little bit, reluctantly hugged her, and ordered to send her back to the house to stop blowing the wind: "Where is Zhaorong? How is she?"

Wen Po hurriedly said that she passed out due to exhaustion.

"I'll take care of you." Yun Fenghuang nodded, said something in the usual scene, and was about to leave, but saw Mrs. Wen looking at him eagerly, hesitating to speak, and was surprised, "What else is there?"

"Ms. Zhaorong took the maidservant's hand before she fainted and told her to ask you to stay and help manage the overall situation, and leave after she wakes up." Wen Po glanced at Concubine Rui several times anxiously when she said this, for fear of being caught by her. Concubine Rui seemed to hold a grudge.

It's no wonder that Concubine Xian and Concubine Rui are all associates of the Sixth Palace, but Wei Hengyan only entrusts Concubine Xian and does not mention Concubine Rui, even though she has a better relationship with Concubine Xian and Yijia Palace is adjacent to Xuanqing Palace. Because of her residence, Concubine Rui was somewhat offended.

Concubine Rui simply didn't want to accept this kind of errand, so she said after hearing the words: "The concubine has worked so hard for you, as long as Zhaorong's mother and daughter are safe, the concubine will leave first!"

After she left, Yun Fenghuang asked the Wen woman: "Zhaorong is always careful, why is it difficult to give birth this time? Is there anything unusual?"

Wen Po shook her head and said, "Nothing unusual, it's just that Zhao Rong was very nervous about giving birth for the first time..."

After hesitating for a while, he whispered back, "Perhaps I was frightened by what happened to Mrs. Chen a few days ago."

Wei Hengyan's courage is really not great. She panicked for several days about Xinqing's incident. Yun Fenghuang sighed and said: "I know, since Zhaorong wants me to stay and help, then I will help you." The palace will make arrangements for now."

So he gave some instructions to the main hall, and ordered Qingdu to wait for the servants to supervise separately, so that no one would take the opportunity to attack Wei Hengyan—this is why Wei Hengyan insisted on Yun Fenghuang staying before he passed out—such a thing It was already dawn, but Wei Hengyan still didn't wake up, and Yun Fenghuang didn't bother to go back to Huanhua Hall, so he just found a random place in the side hall for a while.

I don't know how long I slept for, but when I woke up, I heard someone whispering outside the tent, and a familiar voice asked: "... How long has it been? What time did you wake up?"

She asked lazily: "Is your majesty coming? I'm already awake."

He heard Chunjia give orders in a low voice for a while, then walked in alone after a while, and said, "Ah Huang is kind to Zhao Rong, and she is allowed to make such a big fuss, and she stayed up all night."

"Love me?" Yun Fenghuang sat up with his arms propped up, and said with a smile, "Among the concubines, Zhaorong respects your Ah Huang the most. I shouldn't feel so sorry for her?"

Chunjia snorted, "Yeah, all the pain in my heart has passed me by!"

"Zhaorong is not an ignorant person. You have to give the fifth prince to Gu's side, and tell her well that she will agree." Yun Fenghuang got up and went to the coat hanger next to him to get his outer robe. Seeing this, Jia took it off and handed it to her, sneered and said: "Of course I know that Zhaorong will not disagree, it's not because of this that I hesitated just now."

This made Yun Fenghuang a little surprised. She interrupted just now because she was afraid that Chunjia would say something about Baoxiao, and Chunjia's impression of Wei Hengyan was not bad. The only thing that made him make such a decision was nothing more than It was he who decided early in the morning to entrust the fifth prince to Gu Zhen's upbringing, so Wei Hengyan, who was a natural mother and concubine, naturally became a stumbling block to a certain extent.

But Chunjia said it wasn't the reason... She put on her coat and asked while tying it up: "You think so much of the third princess?"

This is a question, but with a clear negative.

To put it bluntly, it is still a question of whether or not she can grow up with the weak appearance of the third emperor's daughter.

As for Chunjia sacrificing Wei Hengyan for such a daughter who hadn't landed at that time?

"..." Chunjia hesitated to speak, then sighed slightly after a while, and said, "That's all."

He didn't want to talk about this matter, so he changed the topic and said, "Your own two children are still young, and a lot of people went to reorganize the palace a few days ago, so don't worry too much about Zhaorong's side, and pay more attention to yourself. Don't let Zhaorong recover by then, you will be devastated."

Yun Fenghuang said disapprovingly: "Not long ago, what happened to Mrs. Chen frightened Zhaorong. In fact, I didn't do anything here, but just let her know that she felt at ease. They will not forget the lessons learned so quickly."

While speaking, Yan Yin coughed outside, and reported through the door that Wei Hengyan's family had already entered the palace. Knowing that Sheng Jia was here, he did not dare to come rashly. After all, they are in a sick state, so they just find a flower parlor to send them to drink tea.

"I forgot, today is the day when married women come to the palace for a small gathering." Yun Fenghuang patted his head when he heard the words, and said to the outside, "Let Zhaorong's natal family come here quickly, Your Majesty is busy with government affairs , come to see Zhaorong once, and I will go back."

Looking at Chunjia while talking, Chunjia laughed and said: "You have arranged everything for me, can I not leave later?"

After thinking about it for a while, she told her again, don't neglect her own palace because of Zhaorong's side, "Zhaorong only gave birth to a princess this time, so how can there be any eye-catching eyes in your palace?"

"Did A Ji hear something, and the concubine was a little flustered." Yun Fenghuang asked him after hearing this, "You never said this before."

Chun Jia said: "Before, you never stayed in other people's palaces like this to help out, and you didn't care about your own palace!"

At this time, Yanyin came over to remind him that Wei Hengyan's natal female relatives were already coming here—this was a tactful urging of the emperor to leave, after all, Wei Hengyan's elders were fine, young female relatives such as sister-in-law, According to the rules, it is not suitable to meet the emperor face to face.

So Chunjia got up and left, and before leaving, he asked Yun Fenghuang: "Don't forget to go to Qingci Palace to say hello, if the imperial grandmother asks about Ji's recent situation, you can say that you are still in the circle, the court didn't find out why, Ye The Duke of the State has submitted a request to return to his hometown, and now I am still discussing with the ministers whether to agree or not."
