My father-in-law is Kangxi

Chapter 1756: Happy
Niguzhu developed symptoms and vomited out the egg custard he ate at night.

After the first watch, I started to have a high fever.

How can Shushu and the Ninth Prince feel at ease?
The couple were both guarding in the west wing.

Madam Bo looked at Shushu with concern and said, "Don't force yourself..."

Shushu said, "Don't worry, Amu. I know the severity of the situation. I will catch up on my sleep tomorrow morning."

"Mamma...Ene...Ene...Mamma..."

Niguzhu's face flushed and he moaned with his eyes closed.

Shushu held Niguzhu's little hand and said, "Enie is here, and so is Mama..."

"What about Ama?" Niguzhu whispered.

The Ninth Prince felt sad and said hurriedly, "Father is here too."

Niguzhu opened his eyes, looked at the Ninth Prince, and murmured, "Great, let's play pot tossing tomorrow..."

The Ninth Prince nodded and said, "Yes, yes, not only pitching pots, but also drawing bows..."

Several people gathered around her, coaxing her to drink antipyretic medicine and using a wet towel to wipe her armpits.

With these two approaches combined, plus the fact that there are sleep-inducing herbs in the medicine, Niguzhu became well-behaved after drinking it for a while.

The heat on my face also subsided a little.

The room fell silent.

Mrs. Bo pulled a pillow over and urged Shushu, "You have to accompany me, but you can't sit like this. Be careful of your waist pain. Lean a little..."

Seeing this, the Ninth Prince said, "Yes, I will be on duty for the first half of the night. You can close your eyes and take a nap first. I will take over for the second half of the night."

Shushu is indeed tired.

This is what Niguzhu is happy about, and Fengsheng and Akdan are behind him.

She lay on her side, and closed her eyes as her eyelids became heavy.

It’s just that I don’t feel at ease, and my dreams are full of bizarre things.

There was the Ninth Prince who was locked up in a low house, the old Qi Xi who had been stripped of his official position and title, the white-haired Jueluo, and the Lady Bo who died of vomiting blood...

Shushu wanted to call for help, but she couldn't open her mouth. It was as if there was an invisible barrier between her and everyone else. She was extremely anxious.

“Wake up, wake up…”

"Fu Jin..."

Shushu opened his eyes when he heard the familiar voice, already covered in cold sweat.

Madam Bo patted her back gently and said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, you are just in a state of terror..."

The Ninth Prince also pulled her hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay. Everything will be fine. The children will be fine. The Seventeenth Princess and the Nineteenth Prince will also be successfully vaccinated."

Shushu glanced at Lady Bo, then at the Ninth Prince, and tears streamed down her cheeks.

Mrs. Bo choked up and said, "You are already an elder, you must be strong..."

Shushu hugged Mrs. Bo's arm and whispered, "Amu must live a long life..."

Mrs. Bo nodded and said, "Yes, yes, Amu is worried about you and will not be able to close his eyes until he sees that you have many children and grandchildren."

Shushu looked at the Ninth Prince and said, "Your Majesty also wants to be safe, healthy, and prosperous for a long time. I cannot endure hardship, and I don't want you and the children to suffer."

The Ninth Prince scolded, "I am a prince. If I am not rich, who will be? Don't worry, when the epidemic is over, I will send people to Guangzhou to buy Western medicine. I guarantee that Khan Ama will live to be ninety-nine. By then, I will be a prince for seventy years!"

Shushu knew that she was being pretentious, but she still felt uncomfortable.

With so many relatives around, she became more timid and afraid of everything.

The Ninth Prince had been married to her for several years and knew that she was not a brave person.

The current discomfort, apart from the pressure of vaccination for the children, is also caused by the Seventeenth Princess and the Nineteenth Prince coming into the mansion.

He also felt resentment in his heart.

Khan Ama, really, is he too selfish?

The princes and princesses are so precious, do you completely ignore the safety of the emperor's grandchildren?
His children are children, but his son’s children are not children?

*
Everyone watched the princes and princesses leave the palace.

The news spread that day.

The Ninth Prince was resentful and indignant, while the Eighth Prince was shocked and confused.

He thought of the old days of Han Jing.

By sending the youngest son and daughter to the Ninth Prince's Mansion, does it mean that in the eyes of the Emperor, the Ninth Prince and his wife are more reliable?

If there is really such trust, what will happen when the prince loses his throne?

If the emperor's father has a similar lifespan to Taizong, then the eldest or third prince will have the best chance of succeeding the crown prince; if the emperor's father has the same lifespan as Taizu, then he may have to choose from the younger princes.

The Emperor's father hoped that his sons would be loved. The Ninth Prince was just normal to his older brothers, but he was indeed friendly to the younger princes.

It’s not the Ninth Prince, but the Ninth Lady who is reliable.

The Eighth Prince felt very sad.

On the Ninth Concubine's golden birthday, she gave birth to triplets safely. She was filial to the Empress Dowager and Concubine Yi, and friendly to her brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law.

What about your own home?
The Fucha family had no legitimate status and her identity was awkward when she went out to interact with others.

I can come out by myself, but what about Guo Luoluo?
Guo Luoluo has been very well behaved in the past two years.

Things that happened in my early years can be said to be due to my youthful willfulness, and I learned a lot of lessons.

Among so many princes' families, only theirs has a concubine.

As for the Prince An's Mansion, they used to send people to visit Guo Luoluo almost every month, but in the past few months, there have been fewer people doing so.

Is it because of his own reasons that he is angry with Guo Luoluo?
If she continues to be imprisoned like this, the Prince An’s Mansion will forget about Guo Luoluo first, right?
If he is not even close to his niece, how can he, his nephew-in-law, be close to him?

Thinking of this, the Eighth Prince picked up a lantern and went to the west wing.

Seeing the locked door, the Eighth Prince paused and then asked the maid on duty to open it.

The yard was pitch black, with only the east room having light.

The eighth prince lifted the curtain and went in.

The Eighth Lady had her hair loose, was wearing a middle-length dress, and was soaking her feet.

There was a girl about ten years old sitting on a small stool next to her, massaging the Eighth Lady's feet.

Seeing the Eighth Prince come in, the little girl was startled and quickly stood up and stepped aside.

The Eighth Lady looked at the Eighth Prince with great surprise.

The Eighth Prince waved his hand and was about to send the little girl away.

The little girl did not move, but looked at the Eighth Lady.

The Eighth Lady took her feet out of the foot basin and said, "Go down..."

The little girl responded and bent down to carry the foot basin down.

The Eighth Prince didn't care. He sat down on the edge of the kang and looked at the Eighth Lady.

The hostility on the Eighth Lady's face was gone, and she looked very peaceful.

"Does Fu Jin want to 'get well'?"

The Eighth Prince asked with some temptation.

The Eighth Lady looked at the Eighth Prince, but what she was thinking about was the fat girl in red and the clear child's voice.

If I can "recover from the illness", I will be able to go out, and then visits from relatives will be inevitable.

This was clearly the thing that the Eighth Lady disdained and hated the most before, but now she is looking forward to it.

It was just that the Eighth Lady had smoothed out her impetuousness and became more patient in this courtyard.

She remained calm and asked instead of answering, "Master, do you need a legitimate wife?"

The Eighth Prince nodded, without denying it, and said, "Yes, I need a legitimate wife. If you are willing to 'recover', I will find a way to let you out..."

If she is unwilling, or does not learn her lesson, and makes trouble again after coming out, then I will have to find a way to change her as the legitimate wife.

The Eighth Prince lowered his eyes, his heart trembling.

If the current situation is not changed, the disadvantage will always be a disadvantage, and he will be suppressed by the Ninth Prince.

Perhaps, from the beginning to the end, what I lacked was not only identity, but also courage.

The Eighth Lady felt a chill in her heart, but tears welled up in her eyes. She said, "I knew I was wrong a long time ago. I also need you..."

The Eighth Prince held the Eighth Lady's hand and said, "Next year will be Khan Ama's fiftieth birthday. Let's start preparing for the birthday gift now. When the time comes, husband and wife will present the gift together. I will then ask Khan Ama for mercy and let you come out..."

"Master..."

The Eighth Lady only felt that the palm of the Eighth Prince's hand was wet and as cold as a poisonous snake. She wanted to shake it off immediately, but she was still choking with sobs.

"Thank you, sir. I will definitely learn from my fourth sister-in-law and behave properly, so that no one can find fault with me..."

The Eighth Prince nodded, feeling very relieved, and said, "It's good that you have figured it out. You and I are husband and wife, and we will prosper together and disgrace together..."

Haidian, South Second Institute.

The Third Lady had also finished washing up and was ready to settle down.

She also heard the news from the capital and knew that the Seventeenth Princess and the Nineteenth Prince were taken to the Ninth Prince's Mansion.

She thought similarly to the Third Prince and felt a little embarrassed.

Although taking care of her precious young brother-in-law and sister-in-law was not an easy job, she felt uncomfortable when it fell on someone else, especially her own cousin.

"What a flatterer, this is a familiar face..."

The Third Lady couldn't help but grumble to the maid who was on duty at night: "She looks generous, but she's full of tricks. She clung to the Empress Dowager as soon as she entered the palace. She's such a cunning bastard..."

The girl was reluctant to agree with the Ninth Lady's criticism, so she just said, "It's all because the master is honest and kind to others, so she didn't take precautions..."

The Third Lady curled her lips and said, "What's the use of having a good heart? They are willing to spend money to buy good relationships. Who can compare with them?"

As the master and servant were talking, there was a noise at the door.

The Third Lady couldn't help but frown and glanced at the clock.

It’s already the second watch of the day, what are you still making a fuss about?
The third wife's face drooped as she said, "That servant is making a fuss, let her get out of here!"

When the person came in, it was none other than the Fourth Princess's wet nurse.

She looked panic-stricken and knelt down as soon as she came in.

"Fujin...Fujin...the fourth princess is happy..."
