Chapter 167 (3)
Orondai performed outstandingly on the first day, and was gifted by Kangxi with a roast leg of lamb that the emperor personally hunted, which has a different meaning.With the spirits, I had a great time eating.After eating and drinking, a bunch of people who praised Mr. E's stinky feet came to praise him and respect him.When he was happy, Elundai also drank to his heart's content, and soon he drank too much. The little eunuch guarding beside him saw that something was wrong, so he sneaked to Kangxi and reported: "Long live, Lord E is too drunk!" .”
Kangxi was listening to the Mongols praising his sons and grandchildren, and when he heard the news, he immediately said: "Tell someone to coax him out to sober up." The Mongolian who was speaking stopped talking with a wink, until Kangxi finished his orders, and asked him kindly: "I remember you have three sons in your family?"
"Yes, the eldest son is fourteen years old. The younger two are about the same age, and both are ten years old."
Kangxi laughed and said, "Let me keep your eldest son."
The other person smiled immediately: "Listen to you." After speaking, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one go.
Kangxi used a gold cup, which was not as big as others, and he did it with pride.When I looked down, the seat of Orondai was already empty.
Orondai was abducted by Qingde.The little eunuch won the order, so he didn't dare to look for bad luck by himself. Thinking about the good relationship between Qingde and Erlundai, he begged him in a low voice: "Long Live Lord asked E Gongye to go outside to sober up."
Qingde looked at him with a half-smile, and the little eunuch immediately said: "You should always be a poor servant, I don't have the ability to persuade Lord E."
"I just said, how could the emperor send me such an errand? It turns out that you are playing tricks."
The little eunuch begged a few more words, Qingde agreed, and got up to look for Erlundai: "Old E, congratulations."
The little eunuch wants to jump and asks you to persuade him to go out to sober up, not to persuade you to drink.Orondai was very happy: "Do it!"
Qingde leaned over: "Old E, you..." looked around, "Come on, let's go outside to play! Someone beat Buku."
Orondai was fascinated by these violent games, so without saying a word, he put down his glass and said, "Let's go."
Outside, Qingde can't let a drunkard fight, can he?Asked mysteriously: "You are so proud today, do you have any tricks?"
Orondai let out a belch: "I asked the third elder brother, where is the eldest elder brother, I will go to him for a while first, and hit everything that can be beaten, and drive away everything that cannot be beaten... ..."
"Old E, you..."
"Ok?"
"Continue to work hard tomorrow, ah, there will be more tomorrow, just recharge your batteries."
"You're right. Go!"
It's really not easy for big brother to get the current ranking, I'm afraid it's not less occupied by other people's territory.Qingde called two passing guards to help Erlundai back to his residence, and squatted on the grass in a daze.
Hey, there were not many mosquitoes on the grassland at this time, and he was told to meet one.Slapping himself, Qingde staggered back to continue drinking.
While singing and dancing on the grassland, there was a woman in the palace who was fighting for her life.
Wang Pin gave birth.
This is the third time she has given birth, and she is already very experienced, both physically and externally. She is very familiar with the process.As soon as the expected delivery date is reached, preparations will be made at the Imperial Hospital, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will also prepare the people and things that the young master will use in the future.Everything is ready, only production is owed.
Concubine Wang is very experienced. As soon as she felt something was wrong, she immediately told the nanny who came to take care of her in advance.Mammy reported immediately, and all the things that should be prepared were sent over like a stream.Concubine Tong personally sat down to welcome the arrival of this new life.
Standing outside the door, Concubine Tong raised her voice and said: "Don't worry, this baby will be all right," she turned her head and ordered, "Let people divide into two groups and report to Ningshou Palace and East Palace."
In Ningshou Palace, after receiving the news, the Empress Dowager did not rush over in person. One was because she was getting older and everyone was afraid of accidents for her, and the other was that she didn't want to move much.In recent years, the royal family has grown and imported very quickly, and it is not uncommon to have children.The concubine Wang is not a serious lord of the first palace, so the empress dowager doesn't have to move.
The empress dowager only sent someone to send a message to Concubine Tong: "Your concubine, take care of me a little more, and tell me if you have any news. Then ask someone to tell the prince, no matter whether the baby is a boy or a girl, he has to report it to Khan Ama." .”
In this way, the East Palace received the news that Concubine Wang was giving birth.For this one, Yinfeng doesn't have to worry about it. Wang Concubine's background and status are not high. Even though she has two sons who are quite favored by herself, she still didn't have her share when she was entrusted with the Jin Dynasty.Wang Pin's son is also young, so he is not a threat to the prince now.
Yinfeng said, "Understood, let me know as soon as there is news." Then he asked if the Ministry of Internal Affairs and other departments were well prepared, and then ordered someone to hand over the matter to Shujia to deal with it.He only cares about the outcome of the matter, and just write a report to Kangxi.He would not get involved in the affairs of his father's harem if he could, so as to avoid suspicion.
Shujia was a bit dumbfounded when she received the news: "What's the use of telling me now? I don't know if it's a man or a woman? It's hard to decide what kind of gift to prepare."
Soon, she will know.
Wang Pin's childbirth had no effect on Yinreng. After finishing his work, he went home for dinner.By the way, she asked Shujia if she had any plans, and Shujia said: "I have sent Qingjin and Qiaoer to look at it, and I will report back when I have any news. It is better to know whether it is a man or a woman."
Yinfeng said: "I remember that I will soon be with my concubine?"
"That's right, it won't be until this month. It's going to be quite lively now. Concubine Wang is so lucky, she already has two elder brothers."
Yinfeng put his hand on Shujia's stomach, feeling the beating inside: "Why do I feel that you are praising yourself for your good fortune?"
Shujia nodded seriously: "Well, you found out."
Yinfeng was about to say something when the two of Qingjin came back: "Master, the slaves came out when they came. The key to the palace gate is about to be released. The noble concubine master asked the servants to come back first. As soon as she has a letter, she will send it away." Someone came to report."
"Understood, you are also tired, go and rest."
Shujia said to Yinfeng: "By this time, it's already in its early stages, so it's going well. There will be news in a while, do you want to wait?"
Yinfeng stretched his waist: "I'll wait, you go and rest."
"Just wait."
The two laughed for a while, and then talked about Hongdan and Wang Bin's two sons traveling together.Yinfeng was quite proud of his son: "Khan Ama has always praised him for coming, and now he is familiar with riding and shooting. Well, they started hunting today, and I don't know what the harvest will be..."
The two chatted for a while, Yinfeng urged Shujia to go to bed again, and the announcer knocked on the door: "The concubine master sent the slaves to report to the crown prince, the concubine Wang is born, it is an elder brother, an eighteenth elder brother!"
Shujia ordered someone to reward him with a purse, and Yinfeng called him over and asked, "What time? Is the mother and child safe? Is the imperial concubine still watching? Are the nurses, babysitters and other servants here?"
After getting an affirmative answer, he asked him to send a message: "The superior concubine, the key has been released, we don't want to trouble everyone, and I will go to pay my respects tomorrow morning."
After sending them away, Shujia ordered: "Take out the gift that you plan to give to elder brother."
Yinfeng said, "It's finally time to rest. I'll write a note. Don't forget it tomorrow." After a few strokes, the report was written, and the two fell asleep.
It's none of your business, hang high, the prince and his wife slept soundly.Some people in some places in Miyagi are not so calm.
Amidst the congratulations of the crowd, Concubine Tong's eyes flashed a trace of disappointment.As a woman, no matter how high your status is, you are helpless without a son.The situation of the empress dowager is different, she is the empress dowager, but she is just a concubine.After Kangxi for thousands of years, she could only put down all the power and entertainment in her hands, and shut herself up in the Palace of Compassion and Peace or Ningshou Palace, and the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng passed away for the rest of her life.There are no children around the knees, no children and grandchildren.Lonely and miserable, just like the old concubines living in Ningshou Palace attached to the empress dowager.
Concubine Tong wanted to emulate her elder sister, and it would be best if she could adopt a child.It's just that this matter has to be approved by the emperor, Concubine Tong frowned, Kangxi didn't mean it.
When they are not a threat to themselves, people are happy to hear good news and spread good news.The good news spread all over Miyagi immediately, the four heavenly kings belonged to very calm people, each of their grandchildren were as old as Wang Concubine's son, as the crown prince thought, Wang Concubine's son was too young to be competitive.
What worries me is He Concubine, He Concubine is younger than Wang Concubine, and it is the first time she gave birth, so she is very sensitive to troubles.When she heard the news that Concubine Wang was giving birth, she felt that her stomach was a little strange, and hurriedly called someone to come and see, but got the news that it was not a childbirth.
Hebi frowned: "Why is there no news yet?"
Mammy knew that she was thinking of herself, so she explained: "Master, don't worry, the best doctors in the world are here."
The concubine didn't know what she was worried about, so the maid came to persuade her to lie down: "It's good to fall asleep. It's already past your rest time, so you're not in a good mood?"
The concubine lay down and still couldn't sleep, until the messenger came: "Master, the palace is shouting, it's an elder brother."
The pressure on the concubine immediately increased.She suddenly understood her worry just now, she wanted a son.
In August of the 40th year of Kangxi, Lord Kangxi frequently received good news.First, Wang concubine gave birth to a son for the eighteenth elder brother, and He concubine gave birth to a daughter, ranked No.18 daughter.Two eighteen, made up a word "good" for Kangxi.Then, Guo Luoluo, the concubine of the ten sons of the emperor, Ben gave him a grandson, and Qi Fujin gave him a granddaughter.
During this period of time in the paddock, Kangxi was in an exceptionally good mood.
He is 49 (false) this year, and has given birth to a son and a daughter, obviously in very good health.When Kangxi accepted everyone's congratulations, that smile really came from the heart.
Soon he couldn't laugh anymore: the first son of the emperor's ten sons, died this month at the age of six days.At the end of this month, the eighteenth daughter of the emperor died.
Immediately afterwards, Prince Jane's Yabu was seriously ill, and Yaerjiang couldn't take off his clothes, and he was sick day and night, but Yabu's illness continued to worsen day by day.
Kangxi didn't show it on his face, and issued orders one by one, ordering the eldest son Yinti and the third son Yinzhi to return to Beijing in advance, and arrange the return to Luan along the way.Order Jingzhong to bury Xiao Gege as usual, without waiting for his return.Order the emperor's grandson to be buried in a small red coffin as usual, and the scene does not need to be big.
Reply to Yinfeng: "King Jian may not be able to afford it, and I ordered Yousi to prepare first." Finally, I couldn't help but think about my daughter: "She is a child who is not yet full-term, and she can't even see her face, so I won't let her go." It's too sad. I just hope that she will be safe and happy in the next life. You should persuade the Empress Dowager a lot, and don't make the Empress Dowager sad."
Shengjia Huiluan's residence report was passed on to Yinreng together with Kangxi's letter. While writing back to Kangxi, he urged his father to mourn his father's day. Khan Ama is always waiting for him in Beijing.
Kangxi sighed for a while, the work of reading letters is now done by Hongdan.
Although he still can't understand the mysteries of life and death, he can see that Ta Mafa is sad.Hongdan thought for a while, put down the letter paper in his hand, and took a few steps forward.Standing on tiptoe, he patted Ta Mafa on the shoulder, and put it in his arms: "If Mafa is sad, come here, I don't see you crying."
This time reflects how cute a caring child is.
Kangxi hugged his grandson, but he didn't cry.He's been through a lot with the dead child, and it shouldn't have had such a big impact on his mood, but the older he gets, the more emotional he becomes.Kangxi patted Hongdan: "Mafa is sad, but she didn't cry."
Perhaps the low pressure on the emperor was too strong, and rascals such as Oron Dai did not cause trouble again.Let the emperor deal with political affairs silently and deal with Yabu's death.
Prince Jane died of illness while driving with him.He ordered the ministers to send them back to Beijing, and the eldest son Yinti and the third son Yinzhi went out to welcome them, sent officials to attend the funeral, and gave 4000 taels of silver, and the prince jointly contributed 3000 taels of silver.When it was issued, the prince sent him to see him off, and erected a stele for his funeral. His posthumous title was Xiu.In view of his friendship with Yaerjiang A, the crown prince sent a report to Kangxi and went to pay a memorial ceremony in person.
As the established heir, Yarjan'a took over the iron hat of Prince Jane.
On the way back to Beijing, Kangxi received another message from the crown prince, that Pingjun Wang Naerfu, the imperial doctor, was preparing for his funeral.
The crown prince's expected reshuffle of new generations has begun to take shape.
