Transmigrated into a Qing Dynasty concubine and asked the system to help me raise my children
Chapter 70 Kangxi Defei 23
With the example of Concubine Yi before her, Shen Jiang was unwilling to step forward and make a fool of herself.
Although there were a few people behind who had good riding skills and speed, they were nothing compared to Concubine Yi's stunning performance.
The princes also showed off their skills. The crown prince, the eldest prince, the third prince and the fourth prince all rode on their own ponies. The fourth prince had practiced riding and archery in his lifetime, and this time he achieved a result comparable to that of the third prince.
After all, the eldest prince is a little older and more outstanding.
The Sixth Prince had not yet started learning archery and horse riding, so he had to use his slingshot to shoot birds in the trees and the buttocks of palace maids and eunuchs.
He was discovered by Shen Jiang, who picked him up and slapped him twice on the butt.
"If you keep being so naughty, I'll send you to the study!"
The Sixth Prince yelled, "No, no, I don't want to go to school!"
My fourth brother has to go to school every day. He gets up before dawn and practices calligraphy after dark. He has no time to play. It’s terrible!
The fourth prince was very tolerant of his younger brother and said with a smile: "Are you bored because no one is playing with you? Come on, I will take you out for a walk."
The Sixth Prince rolled his eyes and said, "You don't need to compete with the Third Brothers to flatter Father. No, Father is a real dragon, so he should be called Dragon Fart!"
Shen Jiang pulled his ear: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
The Sixth Prince covered his ears and said, "Isn't it?"
Although the wording is not elegant, it is indeed a disguised form of flattery in that situation.
The fourth prince smiled and said, "No, I'll play with you."
Anyway, he had already shown Khan Ama his riding and archery skills, so he could let others do the rest.
Shen Jiang asked them to bring more people and let the system follow, and then let them go.
The lotus flowers in the lotus pond were in full bloom, so Shen Jiang walked by the pond. After a while, he ran into Wei.
Thanks to Concubine Hui and the Eighth Prince, although Wei was only a concubine, she was also able to come to the palace.
Wei saluted Shen Jiang, who raised his hand slightly and said, "I heard that you were not feeling well a while ago. Are you used to the palace?"
Wei smiled softly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Sister Defei. I'm fine, nothing serious. I feel more comfortable in the temporary palace, which is much better than the Forbidden City."
Shen Jiang smiled and said, "That's right. If I were in the palace, I wouldn't have the leisure to go out and stroll around. It would be so boring to be stuck in the palace."
The two of them simply walked together, chatting about the past and their children.
"The Imperial Concubine wants to take the Eighth Prince away, but Concubine Hui refuses. You are stuck in the middle. I guess you are in a dilemma, right?"
"If someone else had asked me this, I would have kept silent. Sister Defei is not an outsider, so I might as well speak to you from the bottom of my heart! Alas, I hope that the Imperial Concubine can raise the Eighth Prince, but I don't want him to be too far away from me."
The two stood under a big willow tree, with willow branches hanging down and gently brushing their shoulders.
Wei looked at the pond and sighed, "You know, I was born in a low family and was not supposed to have a child. God blessed me and I was able to have a child safely, but what about the child's future? Although Concubine Hui is good, she is not as good as the Imperial Noble Concubine."
Shen Jiang nodded: "I understand what you mean."
Wei looked at her gratefully and said, "I only hope that after the Imperial Concubine raises the Eighth Prince, others will forget that he has a biological mother like me."
But this is almost impossible. The higher the Eighth Prince's position becomes in the future, the more people will remember who his biological mother is.
The two were silent for a long time. Wei smiled to herself and said, "What's the point of me saying so much? Anyway, I, the one who gave birth to him, have no right to decide who will raise the child."
The emperor no longer turned over her card. With a child of such humble origin, one is enough.
After talking with Wei, Shen Jiang was in a bad mood.
Although they are NPCs, why are female NPC characters always miserable?
She had been in a bad mood for several days, so the Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince stopped going out to play and stayed with her.
In fact, only she herself knew the reason, she was pregnant.
More than a month later, the imperial physician diagnosed that the baby was pregnant.
Shen Jiang happened to be in the early stages of her pregnancy when the emperor returned to the palace. Kangxi was worried about her pregnancy and asked her if she would wait until the first three months before returning to the palace.
Shen Jiang didn't want to be separated from the children, so she followed the group back to the palace.
When they arrived at Yonghe Palace, Shi Liu and Pu Tao were busy packing boxes and cages. Shen Jiang sat on the kang and sighed, "Why does it feel so cramped in the palace?"
Shi Liu smiled as she worked and answered her, "The houses in the temporary palace are tall, wide and spacious, so the houses in the palace seem cramped."
Shen Jiang sighed: "It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality!"
Shi Liu said, "Isn't the emperor repairing the garden? Please ask the emperor to take you there later."
Shen Jiang snorted: "He brings nothing!"
Kangxi never brought his concubines with him when he went to Changchun Garden. He spent almost all of his later years in Changchun Garden. Naturally, there were young concubines serving in the garden, leaving a group of old concubines in the palace to decay together with this aging building.
Now that she had returned to the palace, the matter of the Imperial Concubine adopting the Eighth Prince was put on the agenda again.
Concubine Hui tried her best to stop it but failed, and was even scolded by Kangxi. Just when she was about to give up, the Imperial Concubine fell ill.
She was happy in her heart, but then the news came out that the Imperial Concubine was not sick, but pregnant! Concubine Hui was not happy at all.
Six years after Tong Jia entered the palace, she finally received the first good news.
After six years, the emperor finally allowed her to have her own child!
Tong Jia placed her hands on her belly, looked at Kangxi, and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, I have a child, are you happy?"
Kangxi didn't know what he was thinking about, so he didn't answer for a while. It took him a long time to come back to his senses and said, "I'm happy, of course I'm happy."
Tong Jia smiled and didn't ask any more questions. It didn't matter, she was already pregnant and didn't care about anything else.
Originally, Kangxi would not allow high-ranking concubines to give birth to children before the crown prince came of age, but unexpectedly, Tong Jia became pregnant...
Since she is pregnant, it is her destiny and he will not stop her.
"You take good care of your pregnancy. I'm going to handle government affairs." Kangxi did not stay long and left Jingren Palace.
Tong Jia gently stroked her flat belly. Adopting someone else's child was ultimately futile. It would be better to give birth to her own child.
God still has mercy on her. She has been waiting for six years and finally got it.
A teardrop fell, Songge quickly wiped it away for her and said, "Master, you finally got pregnant, you should be happy, please don't cry!"
"I am happy, I am very happy!" Tong Jia understood that she was crying with joy.
The news that the Imperial Concubine was pregnant spread to every corner of the palace like wings, and some people sincerely wished her well: "Amitabha, the Imperial Concubine finally has good news."
Some people were sarcastic: "Humph, so what if you get pregnant? Giving birth to the baby and raising it to adulthood is what counts as achievement!"
Some people were also worried about the crown prince: "The crown prince's foundation is not stable yet. If the imperial concubine of Tong Banchao gave birth to a prince, wouldn't the crown prince's position be in jeopardy?"
And all this had nothing to do with Shen Jiang. She set up a barbecue grill in the courtyard of Yonghe Palace and was grilling chicken wings.
The system has examined Tong Jia, and just like in history, her daughter was born with congenital deficiencies and died before she was one month old.
