My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 1751 Undercurrent (Seeking monthly ticket)

The Fourth Lady was so angry that she was shaking all over. She called the nanny beside her and said, "Go to the cross courtyard and bring the Second Prince over. From now on, the Second Prince will live in the main courtyard!"

The maid agreed and was about to go down.

Li Gege's crying stopped abruptly, and then she remembered that her mistress's temper was not as gentle as usual, so she hurriedly said, "Fujin, no, no, I will take care of the second prince..."

If she is really brought to the main courtyard, even if the concubine has no intention of doing anything bad, she will still have to be on guard against the mischief of the concubines.

If a "loyal servant" really came out to share the Fourth Lady's worries, then Princess Li would have nowhere to cry.

The Fourth Lady looked at Li Gege and said sternly, "You are an old woman too. How come you still don't know the rules after being scolded by me? The Second Prince is the grandson of the emperor. He is precious. How to arrange his place is not decided by me or you. Only my words count!"

Li Gege's lips trembled.

Isn’t the Fourth Prince not in Beijing?

At this time, the Fourth Lady’s words don’t count, so who has the final say?
Is the prince's wife just a decoration?

He is just hiding a traitor. He is afraid of any mishap and being blamed, so he is just waiting like this.

Li Gege was secretly complaining but she could only agree obediently.

The Fourth Lady did not take it lightly and ordered the nanny, "Arrange two people to go to the cross courtyard. The second prince has given birth. From today on, the cross courtyard is sealed and no one is allowed to enter or leave..."

As dusk fell, the capital city gradually returned to peace after a day of hustle and bustle.

Those who had somewhere to avoid acne left the city.

Those who stay in the capital have to continue living their lives.

The main house of the Ninth Prince's Mansion, the west second room.

Niguzhu sat on a high-cushioned chair, looking at the table full of dishes with a smile on his face.

Because Mrs. Bo and her grandparents moved in, Shushu set up a round table for dinner tonight.

A family of six had a reunion dinner.

Niguzhu was still thinking about having delicious food tomorrow, but he didn't expect to have it in the evening.

She turned to ask Mrs. Bo: "Mammy, Mammy, can we eat it? Or should we eat it tomorrow?"

Seeing her well-behaved appearance, Mrs. Bo felt so soft-hearted that she said, "Eat, but eat a few bites and save some for yourself. There will be better ones tomorrow."

"Uh-huh……"

Niguzhu nodded, and watched the lady of the house and his parents pick up their chopsticks before he pointed at the braised meatballs and instructed the nanny beside him to pick up some food.

The Ninth Prince was drinking millet porridge. Seeing Niguzhu eating with relish, he also picked up a meatball with his chopsticks, but left it on the plate for a long time before putting it into his mouth.

But it was a bit difficult for him to open his mouth.

Perhaps because of this reason, the Ninth Prince did not pick up his chopsticks again.

Mrs. Bo found it strange but pretended not to see it. She looked away and looked at Shushu.

Shushu is eating spicy beef.

The beef has not started to freeze yet, so it is the cured beef made after the Double Ninth Festival.

Although it is not as delicious as fresh beef, it has a firm texture and tastes good.

The corners of Mrs. Bo's mouth twitched.

After a while, Baiguo brought in a small bowl with two peeled boiled eggs in it.

Shushu took it, put it in front of the Ninth Prince, and said, "Master, you can't just drink porridge to clean your stomach. Eat two eggs!"

The Ninth Prince glanced at Shushu, took the small bowl and started eating obediently.

The children ate eggs every day, either boiled eggs or steamed eggs. Seeing the Ninth Prince eating alone, they did not feel greedy.

Niguzhu, on the other hand, was the most kindhearted and could not help but say, "Father, father, eggs are not as delicious as meatballs..."

The Ninth Prince smiled and said, "Father, we'll have meatballs tomorrow. Let's have eggs today."

After the meal, it was time to light the lamps.

Fengsheng and Akdan returned to the back courtyard, and Niguzhu also followed the lady back to the west wing.

There was a smell of food in the room, so Shushu and the Ninth Prince asked someone to open the window to let the smell go, and the couple went to the east room to talk.

When the Ninth Prince sat down on the kang, Shushu walked over and said, "Master, open your mouth and let me see..."

The Ninth Prince raised his head and opened his mouth obediently. His entire mouth was filled with bubbles extending to the corners of his mouth.

Not only did my mouth blister, but the corners of my mouth also turned red and some rashes appeared.

Shu Shu let out a breath and said, "This is just the beginning. If I keep worrying like this, the children will be fine, but I will fall down..."

The Ninth Prince reached out his hands, hugged Shushu's waist, leaned his head on her chest, and said in a muffled voice: "My father is scared. My life in the past few years has been like a dream. Everything good has happened to me. My father is not at ease..."

For other people, eight out of ten things in the world are not satisfactory; for him, eight out of ten things in the world are satisfactory.

Now that he has encountered this hurdle, how can the Ninth Prince not be afraid?
Shushu also felt suffocated in the heart, and her throat had been itching for a long time. She was about to have a cough. She was afraid that Madam Bo and the Ninth Prince would worry, so she kept drinking water to suppress the urge, and only then did she cover it up.

Throughout the day, she was no less worried than the Ninth Prince, but she endured it and didn't show it, and she kept comforting herself in her heart.

This family has old and young people.

She is still in her advanced stage of pregnancy, so if anything goes wrong, it will just cause more trouble.

Shushu couldn't help but silently repeat twice the lucky mantra that she knew in her previous life.

Everything that happens will be good for me!
Everything that happens will be good for me!
Thinking of this, Shushu was no longer anxious, and his anxious heart calmed down.

She lowered her head and kissed the Ninth Prince on the forehead.

For a prince like the Ninth Prince, even if something really happened to him and his children, it would just be a new generation replacing the old.

The reason I feel so sad is because I love them and their child.

The Ninth Prince was feeling upset and he didn't expect Shushu to react like this.

He raised his head and said with dissatisfaction: "Really, how come you don't know the priorities? Are you thinking about it again?"

Shushu laughed angrily, pinched the Ninth Prince's face, and said, "Master, can't you think of something else? Master, think about whether the grandson of the emperor is more precious or the prince is more precious. Who is smarter, Master or the emperor?"

The Ninth Prince thought for a moment and said, "As for preciousness, it depends on who it is. To me, our three great treasures, even if they are grandchildren, are more precious than the princes in the palace. As for intelligence, I am lazy and don't need to use my brain. Otherwise, I am the son of Khan Ama, and I am just as smart..."

Shu Shu snorted softly, "Then Master, let me think about this. Since the smallpox vaccination was started in the palace, has any prince or princess died from smallpox?"

The Ninth Prince shook his head and said, "Don't worry. The seedlings used in the palace are all mature and less toxic. They have all been planted safely..."

For this reason, the princes and princesses who came after him were basically all established.

The deaths of the eleventh prince and the twelfth princess are really sad. They both died at the age of twelve, just as they were about to become adults.

Although the two were not given titles, they were both ranked according to their seniority.

Shushu said, "Then why should I worry? Human pox is reliable, not to mention the cowpox which is even better now. Didn't Fu Song say that fever is mild, much milder than human pox."

The Ninth Prince widened his eyes and said, "That's right, I'm just worrying for nothing. Don't I look at Han Ama, and you and the Tenth Prince? If both of you think that vaccination is possible, then what is there to worry about?"

He felt relieved, his whole face wrinkled, and he licked it in his mouth with his tongue, and said to Shushu: "It doesn't hurt now, but when the blister bursts, it won't hurt, right?"

Shushu has never had this experience before, so she really doesn't know how to do it.

Seeing that the Ninth Prince was afraid, she said, "Ask the doctor tomorrow, sir, be careful not to let the blisters burst, it should be fine if they shrink back."

The Ninth Prince bared his teeth and said, "If it breaks, I will rinse my mouth with liquor to make it heal faster so as not to delay the meal!"

He understood why Shushu ate half a bowl of rice more than usual for dinner.

Everyone in this family, old or young, hopes that the couple will be well.

Shushu felt itchy in her mouth just by listening to it...

*
Prince Cheng’s Mansion, side courtyard.

The Third Prince glared at Tian Gege and said, "Didn't the Master send a message? He told you to go to Haidian with your wife, why didn't you go?"

Although Tian Gege was a mature woman, her fourth daughter, Gege, was only eight months old.

Since her biological mother did not move, the Third Lady would naturally not ask for trouble by taking the Fourth Princess to Haidian, so the mother and daughter in the side yard stayed.

But the Third Lady took her concubine and children to Haidian, so the supply of guards that followed would definitely be closely related to the Third Lady.

Here in the palace, all the people were given a day off and there was a shortage of staff everywhere.

Tian Gege looked down at her belly, then looked at the Third Prince and said, "Master, I am ten days late..."

Third Prince: “…”

After all, he is the person I have spoiled for more than ten years, so the love between us is extraordinary.

They both lost one piece.

The Third Prince now has both legitimate and illegitimate sons, but the ones born to Lady Tian are different after all.

The Third Prince wanted to laugh, but then he sighed and said, "This child came at a really bad time."

Tian Gege had a smile on her face.

She is the first daughter of the Third Prince, the same age as him, and is also almost thirty years old.

I have been waiting for this child for too long.

She couldn't help but whispered, "I think he came at the right time."

The Third Prince listened to the implication of her words and still suspected the Third Lady. He said softly, "I checked and found that the young princes... it really has nothing to do with the Lady. She doesn't have the guts, and I won't indulge her. No one would be so stupid as to dare to murder the royal bloodline..."

Tian Gege showed some stubbornness and said, "Is there really such a coincidence in the world? The second prince died the next day, the fourth prince died as soon as he was born, and the fifth prince died before he even finished his confinement. By the time the third prince was vaccinated safely, the wife had two princes who were able to stand, and the sixth prince also stood up..."

The Third Prince smiled bitterly and said, "It's just a coincidence. I asked the imperial physician. You and Wang are both thin and have small appetites, so you can't raise the child well..."

Tian Gege frowned and said, "What about Fu Cha? She is not thin, her waist is two feet three inches, and the Fifth Prince is gone..."

The Third Prince exhaled and said, "Fucha is young and was born in the twelfth month. She looks chubby, but her body is not yet strong. She was born too early."

Tian Gege: “…”

After a while, she pleaded, "Please, please let me stay in the palace. I am already this old and I dare not make any mistakes."

Although the Third Prince felt sorry for her worries, he was still a little annoyed and said, "You only care about the baby in your belly and not the Fourth Princess? Once the smallpox epidemic breaks out, how many children will die in the capital? How dare you ask the Fourth Princess to stay?"

Tian Gege's face turned pale as she listened. She took the Third Prince's hand and said, "Then... could you please arrange for someone to send Fourth Gege to Haidian tomorrow..."

The Third Prince looked at her and said, "Are you not on guard against Fu Jin now?"

Tian Gege said awkwardly: "Fourth Gege is a Gege..."
