Chapter 110: Spring Scenery
This poem of wanting to speak but not being able to is the best, like holding the pipa and half covering the face. The emperor will naturally understand the meaning of this poem.
Jiang Taigong was fishing, and those willing to take the bait.
Huimin didn't say much and just wrote this poem in her letter to the emperor.
As Huimin expected, the letter was handed to Su Peisheng and then sent to the Yangxin Palace.
When the emperor heard that the letter was from Concubine Xian, he immediately opened it and read it. He started to smile as he read it.
Su Peisheng was just puzzled by the emperor's reaction. Just at this moment, Su Peisheng saw that the emperor also wanted to chat with him about this matter.
Su Peisheng looked at the emperor's expression and asked carefully.
"The emperor is so happy, it shows that the letter from Concubine Xian made the emperor very satisfied."
The emperor deliberately suppressed his laughter, put on a stern face and said:
"Really? I think Xianpin is sensitive because she gave birth to a child. She is also narrow-minded."
However, Su Peisheng saw that although the emperor said that Concubine Xian was narrow-minded, she was smiling and looked very satisfied, so he also said:
"The Concubine Xian is always thinking about the Emperor."
The emperor was also satisfied, "Yes, the butterflies fly over the wall, but they think the spring is in the neighbor's house. Xianpin is dissatisfied that I only favor Wanpin and neglect her. Her personality has always been worthy of the word "Xian", but this time she is jealous."
Seeing that the emperor was interested in mentioning this word, Su Peisheng also asked:
"Forgive my stupidity. Your Majesty and Concubine Xian are the most talented writers. I don't understand what this poem means."
Seeing Su Peisheng coming to power, the emperor was also happy to show off that the women in the harem were vying for his favor.
"Before the rain, you can see the stamens among the flowers, but after the rain, there are no flowers under the leaves.
The butterflies fly over the wall, but I suspect the spring is in the neighbor's house. "
The emperor recited the poem again and said with a smile:
"This Xianpin said that I often visited her before she was pregnant, but now that she has given birth, she hasn't seen me for a long time, so she is complaining."
The emperor paused, looked at the next sentence, then smiled helplessly, thought for a moment, and said:
"Su Peisheng, send some things to Concubine Xian. I remember I just got some Western items. They are new, so send them all to Concubine Xian."
"To save her from thinking that I only favor Wanpin, that butterflies fly through the wall, and that the charming spring scene is all next door. She is more jealous than anyone else."
"The scenery of Chuxiu Palace is no worse than that of Suiyuxuan."
The emperor complained, but Su Peisheng clearly felt that the emperor liked it very much.
It seems that Concubine Xian really understands the emperor's preferences. This lady is definitely not an ordinary person.
This Concubine Wan is in favor now and looks so much like Empress Chunyuan, so it was a pity to let Jinxi leave at that time.
But since Concubine Xian already has a prince and is so valued by the Emperor, it's also a good idea for her.
Su Peisheng was thinking about all this secretly in his heart, and he did not forget to mention the Seventh Prince on behalf of Huimin.
"Your Majesty, what do you think we should do about the seventh prince's third-day baptism ceremony?"
When Su Peisheng mentioned the third-day bathing ceremony, the emperor also took it seriously.
"What does the imperial physician say about the young prince's health?"
When Concubine Xian was pregnant with the Seventh Prince, she happened to be infected with an epidemic, and the clothes she wore were laced with drugs that were not good for having children.
The emperor couldn't help but worry about the impact on the Seventh Prince's health.
How could Su Peisheng, the emperor's favorite, not know what the emperor was thinking? He had asked the imperial doctors long ago and was waiting for the emperor to ask.
"In reply to the emperor, several imperial doctors examined the little prince and said that he was well taken care of in the mother's womb and was born full-term, so he is in good health. It seems that the little prince is a lucky person, and those evil things have not been able to affect the little prince."
The emperor smiled happily and shouted:
"Good, good, good, my little prince, luckily you didn't get harmed by that vicious woman, may the Eternal Heaven bless you."
"Another healthy brother..."
The more the emperor thought about it, the more satisfied he became. He even stood up excitedly and walked around the Yangxin Palace.
Seeing that the emperor was happy, Su Peisheng smiled brighter than a flower and complimented the emperor:
"Yes, since His Majesty ascended the throne, he has had two healthy little princes. In the future, he will surely have many descendants and a long-lasting dynasty."
"Lady Hui hasn't given birth yet, maybe it's another healthy baby boy."
"There are also several favored concubines who may soon give birth to a prince for the emperor."
The emperor felt relieved after hearing this. It had always been a pain for him that he had few children and only three princes.
Now that the situation has gradually improved, the emperor has come to hate the queen even more. If her deeds had not been discovered, this vicious woman, the princes would have died in their wombs long ago.
As soon as the Ulanara family was mentioned, the emperor's good mood was ruined.
In anger, I couldn't help but blurt out:
"Vicious woman!"
"The Queen is like this, it's really..."
Even though the emperor was angry, he had to swallow the rest of his words.
Once the words are out, the king is serious and the queen must be deposed.
If the queen is deposed at this time, the disadvantages will far outweigh the advantages.
The throne of Queen is vacant and the imperial palace is unstable. Nian Gengyao is so powerful. Who will sit on the throne after the Queen is deposed?
Even the emperor had to swallow his anger for the time being.
Seeing that the emperor was in a depressed mood, Su Peisheng immediately changed the subject tactfully:
"Your Majesty, you haven't decided on the rules for the third-day bathing ceremony yet."
When the emperor saw Su Peisheng take the initiative to bring up a new topic, he felt a little better when he thought of his son.
The emperor hesitated for a moment and said:
"Although Hongyao is in good health, it is winter now and children are weak. Don't let a bathing ceremony hurt your body. Let's keep it simple."
Then the emperor felt that his son had been wronged, and continued:
"The third-day bathing ceremony is simple, but the full-month ceremony must be held in a grand manner. Xianpin's father is an important official in the court, and Ortai has always been loyal to the emperor, so the full-month ceremony must be held in a grand manner."
The emperor thought of the letter that Concubine Xian had just sent him and couldn't help laughing.
"But the third-day bathing ceremony should be simple, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs should just muddle through. Otherwise, Concubine Xian will blame me."
"You go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and supervise it yourself. Even if it is simple, you must not lose the prince's face."
The emperor was in a good mood when he thought of his son.
Concubine Xian is still in confinement and cannot meet the emperor, but the Seventh Prince Hongyao can.
The emperor loved his new prince very much and he stood up just thinking about his son.
"Su Peisheng, please go to Chuxiu Palace. I'm going to see Hongyao."
"Whoo."
Su Peisheng made a thousand and shouted:
"Go to Chuxiu Palace."
But when he arrived at Chuxiu Palace, the emperor was a little stunned when he looked at the boy Hongyao and listened to the wet nurse's report.
"Your Majesty, the Seventh Prince is very strong. He is well-behaved when he is not crying, but once he starts crying, he is terrible. His cries are so loud that they shake the sky."
"You can tell from your health at first glance."
Listening to the wet nurse's words, the emperor couldn't help but think of the child Hongqing. One of the two children didn't cry or make a fuss, while the other one would cry loudly and shake the earth when she did.
They are indeed two brothers.
But now it seems that Hongyao likes to be active, while Hongqing likes to be quiet, and their personalities are completely different.
The two brothers are of similar age. They are the only children in the palace and they will grow up together in the future. I wonder if their personalities will be compatible.
But it's good that Hongqing is well-behaved, and as an older brother he can set a good example for his younger brother.
