Transmigrated into a Qing Dynasty concubine and asked the system to help me raise my children

Shen Jiang opened her sleepy eyes. It was already bright outside. She had indeed spent a little too much time in the wedding night last night.

Shen Jiang got up to change clothes and wash. Shi Liu said with a smile, "The Khan went to the council hall. Before he left, he told us not to disturb the concubine. The concubine can sleep as long as she wants. If she doesn't want to pay respects, that's fine too."

Shen Jiang smiled slightly and said softly, "How can that be possible? Please help me wash up quickly. I have to go and pay my respects to the Queen Mother."

Shi Liu immediately quickened her movements, and after she was dressed up, Shen Jiang went to where the Empress was.

Zhezhe was holding the two-month-old Eighth Princess in her arms. When she saw Shen Jiang coming, she smiled and said, "No need to rush to pay respects to me. The longer you sleep, the better. We aunt and niece still have to pay attention to these empty formalities!"

Shen Jiang pursed her lips and smiled, "Etiquette cannot be abolished. I am already the Khan's concubine and I should abide by the palace rules."

Zhezhe handed the eighth princess to the wet nurse and said, "I heard that the Khan gave you the name Hailanzhu. From now on, you will be called Hailanzhu, not Ulantana."

Shen Jiang: “Yes.”

"Have you had breakfast?"

"Not yet."

Zhezhe served breakfast, and just as they finished eating, Bumbutai came.

The two of them exchanged greetings, and Bumbutai smiled and said, "Sister is becoming more and more beautiful."

Shen Jiang smiled shyly: "Sister, you are making fun of me." But she was devastated in her heart. Help me, is it going to be so boring in the future?

The system laughed secretly: "Ha ha ha ha, who told you to play this delicate little white flower!"

Although her acting is very good and professional, people who are familiar with Shen Jiang will really get goose bumps when they see her.

The topic that Zhezhe and Bumbutai talked about the most was children. Shen Jiang was still sitting aside as usual, seemingly listening, but in fact his mind was already wandering away.

"The Khan is here!" A sharp voice dragged Shen Jiang back to reality.

Huang Taiji, wearing a dark blue feather satin, strode in. As soon as he came in, he glanced at Shen Jiang, then took off the feather satin and threw it to the palace maid beside him.

Zhezhe asked, "Is it snowing outside?"

Huang Taiji sat down and said, "Yes, it just snowed for a while. You guys were so engrossed in your conversation that you didn't even notice it was snowing."

Zhezhe laughed and said, "Let's talk about children! What else can we women talk about?"

Bumbutai smiled and said, "My aunt and I chatted a lot, and my sister couldn't get a word in, so I ignored her."

Zhezhe said: "It's nothing. It's good for her to listen more now. When she gives birth to a child for the Khan in the future, she will know how to take care of it."

Bumbutai hid her hands behind her sleeves and smiled: "Aunt, what you said is absolutely right."

Shen Jiang just pretended to be shy and said to the system in her mind: "Did you hear that? Learn more and watch more. Raising the child will be left to you in the future."

The system was not convinced: "Is this all we need to learn?" It has brought up so many children!

Huang Taiji looked at Shen Jiang lovingly. Zhezhe's eyes moved back and forth between the two of them, but she felt that the gazes between them were like spider threads that she couldn't get into.

She felt a little disappointed in her heart, but she still said virtuously: "It's snowing outside. I don't mean to chase you away, but I'm really tired and need to rest. Why don't you accompany Hailanzhu back, Khan?"

Bumbutai stood up first and said, "I'll take my leave first. Auntie, have a good rest."

Huang Taiji nodded and asked Shen Jiang in a low voice: "Did you bring rain gear?"

Shen Jiang shook his head: "No."

Huang Taiji immediately asked someone to go to the storehouse to get her some scarlet feather satin.

Bumbutai's maid was waiting for her at the door with an umbrella. She walked out into the snow and saw two figures holding hands in the wind and snow, one in dark blue and the other in red. They looked so perfect together just by looking at their backs.

She looked quietly for a long time, until she could see no more.

The maid quietly reminded: "Concubine, go back quickly. It's cold in the snow. Be careful not to catch a cold."

Bumbutai seemed to be asking a question or muttering to herself: "What kind of person is the Khan?"

She had been married to Huang Taiji for ten years, but she seemed to have never understood this man. It was true that this man was brave and good at fighting outside and had made great achievements. But inside... he had never shown any special affection for any woman, even the one who had been with him for more than ten years.

But he seemed to treat his sister differently. She had never seen that kind of look, that kind of expression and tone at any other time.

She laughed at herself. In this world, there are some things that others cannot give you. There are also some things that you cannot give to others.

"Let's go back!" Bumbutai walked towards her own yard.

Shen Jiang and Huang Taiji returned to the yard, and Grape quickly brought up the hot milk tea and dried meat.

Huang Taiji held Shen Jiang's hand and said, "Your hands are cold after just walking for a while. There are a lot of fine leathers in the warehouse. I will make a few cloaks for you later."

Shen Jiang thanked him with a smile and sat down in front of the brazier to warm himself by the fire.

Huang Taiji still looked at her like that. Shen Jiang blushed and said shyly, "Why is the Khan staring at me?"

Huang Taiji stroked her cheek and sighed, "I can't get enough of looking at you, Hai Lanzhu, you really make me love you so much."

He stretched out his arms and embraced Shen Jiang in his arms.

The palace maids gradually withdrew, and the only sound in the room was the two people's soft whispers as they leaned against each other.

It snowed heavily in the winter, and Huang Taiji did not go out except to the Council Hall. If he was in the harem, he would be in Shen Jiang's yard. For convenience, he simply moved his study here.

The thick cotton curtains blocked the wind and snow outside the door. Shen Jiang sat on the big kang by the window doing needlework, while Huang Taiji sat behind the desk reviewing memorials.

The two of them did not disturb each other, but were warm and peaceful.

At lunch time, Huang Taiji put down the memorial and walked to Shen Jiang.

Shen Jiang was making a pair of slippers. Although she was very good at needlework, this was her first time here and she couldn't appear to be doing it too smoothly.

Huang Taiji laughed and said, "You have spent several days making this pair of shoes, how come there is only one?"

Shen Jiang blushed and said, "This is the first pair of shoes I made for the Khan. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect. The first pair of shoes is a bit time-consuming, but you will get better as you make more!"

Huang Taiji held her hand and said softly: "Actually, just let the servants do these things. I really don't want you to work so hard."

Shen Jiang was also tender and affectionate: "It's not hard for me. I can do what I can for the Khan. Hailanzhu is very happy and it's not hard at all."

Huang Taiji kissed her temple affectionately, and they walked hand in hand to the west room to have dinner.

Huang Taiji, like all Manchus, loves to eat barbecue and doesn't like vegetables. But recently Shen Jiang personally wrapped barbecued meat with vegetable leaves and dipped it in sauce, which was very delicious, and Huang Taiji also fell in love with this way of eating.

Today we not only have barbecue, but also hot pot.

Shen Jiang asked the kitchen to cut the beef and mutton into very thin slices, which they could pick up after just a few brushings. They tasted particularly tender and fresh.

Huang Taiji liked this place more and more. No matter how noisy it was outside or how strong the wind and snow were, as long as he entered this courtyard, he would be isolated from the disturbance outside.

Speaking of Zhezhe and Bumbutai, Zhezhe would report trivial matters in the harem to him, while Bumbutai would discuss political affairs with him, which made it impossible for him to completely relax.

Being with Hai Lanzhu, it was like being in a paradise. They didn't seem like a king and his subjects, but a newlywed couple.

For the first time, Huang Taiji felt that he was just a man when he was with Hai Lanzhu.
