Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

Yinzhen was very upset.

The cool night breeze woke him up a little.

Perhaps this is the way the women in the harem use to win favor.

He has heard too much of Rouze jumping around in front of him over the years.

He thought of Geng Rou.

He turned around and went to Geng Rou's yard.

Sure enough, tables and chairs had been set up in Geng Rou's yard. She was sitting alone at the table, drinking alone under the moon.

Seeing Yinzhen coming, Geng Rou hurriedly saluted, and Yinzhen immediately pressed her shoulders.

Yinzhen blurted out: "Brother Gangzi, please don't be polite."

As soon as the words fell, both of them were stunned, and then burst into laughter.

Yinzhen's mood suddenly improved a lot.

Geng Rou poured him some wine, and Yinzhen took a sip and exclaimed in admiration.

"So you got all this good wine, but you didn't ask me to drink it."

Geng Rou tilted her head back slightly and leaned against the back of the chair.

"The Fourth Master is a very busy man now, so I'd better hide this wine and drink it myself."

"Are you blaming me for saying this?"

"Of course not. I just want to drink a few more sips of good wine."

Yinzhen smiled and shook his head, "You, you..."

You are different from other women.

Yinzhen said the second half of the sentence in his heart.

"What's wrong with me?" Geng Rou asked.

Yinzhen shook his head, "You are a greedy cat."

The two of them soon leaned against each other while drinking.

Yinzhen couldn't help but pinch her belly.

"Brother Gangzi, you've been eating well recently, and your figure has become more plump and smooth."

Geng Rou was a little drunk and her speech was slurred.

"How...how did it become so round and smooth?"

Yinzhen smiled again.

Then he pinched her belly.

-----------------

The next morning, Yinzhen had already gone to court. Geng Rou touched her belly and remembered what Yinzhen said last night. Her face turned red with embarrassment.

But Yinzhen seemed to have fallen in love with coming to her place and came here every few days.

For the first time, Geng Rou felt the distress of a favored concubine.

Yinzhen became more and more energetic.

She really wanted to persuade Yinzhen not to come.

Her maid suggested a solution, "Princess, why don't you do something else with the Fourth Master, like eating something delicious. The new cook in our house is really good at cooking."

Geng Rou was delighted when she heard this, "You still have a solution!"

She went to the kitchen herself.

This cook was hired recently. Although she is a woman, her cooking skills are very good.

He has already reached the level of a master chef in a Beijing restaurant.

Actually, it was Geng Rou who helped her.

At the beginning, because of her identity as a woman, she could only help in the kitchen and could not cook for the masters.

That night, Geng Rou wanted to find some snacks to go with her drinks and happened to meet her in the kitchen.

The woman helped Geng Rou prepare some snacks to go with the wine, which immediately captured Geng Rou's heart.

From then on, whenever she drank, she would always have the side dishes she made.

"Shang Yanhui, please make me another table of appetizers today. Also, please make some hot dishes. Make a few more dishes according to the Fourth Master's taste."

Shang Yan replied: "Okay, but I don't know what the Fourth Master likes."

Shang Yanhui was indeed in a difficult situation.

Because she was promoted by Geng Rou, the people in the kitchen more or less excluded her and naturally would not tell her these things.

Geng Rou racked her brains to think about it.

"Just... sour radish and old duck soup. You can make the other dishes as you like."

Shang Yanhui nodded.

-----------------

In the evening, Yinzhen came to Geng Rou's place and saw a table full of delicious food and wine at a glance.

"What good thing happened today that makes you so excited?"

Geng Rou said, "Nothing much. I just found that a cook in the mansion cooks very delicious food, especially the side dishes. So I thought of asking the Fourth Master to eat with us."

Yinzhen sat down and picked up the wine glass.

He picked up a piece of food with chopsticks.

“This tastes really good.”

Geng Rou thought about what she had learned. In order to avoid being punished, the royal chefs all followed the golden mean when cooking. The food was not delicious, but it was not bad either.

The food cooked by Shang Yanhui avoided the path of mediocrity, so it was exceptionally delicious.

Drinking wine with this dish makes the wine taste more mellow and long-lasting.

"I am curious about this cook."

After the two of them had taken a few bites, Geng Rou began to feel a stomachache.

“Is there something wrong with the food?”

Yinzhen's eyes fell on the table of dishes.

If there is a problem, I'm afraid it will be directed at him.

He couldn't imagine that anyone would attack Geng Rou.

Maybe it's because he got the throne, and someone with ulterior motives wants to plot against him.

Yinzhen quickly asked Su Peisheng to invite the imperial physician over.

He also sent for the cook.

The imperial physician hadn't arrived yet, but the cook came over.

Yinzhen said, "Geng Gege had a stomachache after eating the food you cooked today."

Shang Yan replied: "In reply to the Fourth Master, there is absolutely no problem with the food I cook!"

"eat."

Shang Yan stood up with his body hunched, walked to the table, picked up a pair of chopsticks, and took a bite of each dish.

Nothing happened.

At this time, the imperial physician had also arrived.

Geng Rou's face turned pale and her eyes were filled with tears.

"Fourth Master, I'm not going to die, am I?"

Yinzhen said, "How can I let you die while I am here? Don't say that word."

The imperial physician examined Geng Rou and looked somewhat serious.

Yinzhen said coldly: "Just say whatever you want to say, don't be secretive."

"My Lord, the princess is pregnant, but..."

A flash of joy flashed across Yinzhen's face, and he asked, "Just what?"

"It's just that Gege seems to have been drinking, which is not good for the fetus. It's a little unstable."

Geng Rou's eyes widened.

She said in panic, "Fourth Master... I, I really don't know."

Although Yinzhen felt a little distressed and annoyed, his anger was not directed at Geng Rou.

It was for the wine. (Not for myself anyway.)

Alcohol can cause harm to one’s career!

"Tell me quickly, what should we do?"

The doctor swallowed nervously, then said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. There is still a way."

"Princess, you are in the early stages of pregnancy now. It is normal for you to feel a little unstable. Just take good care of yourself, stop drinking, and pay more attention to yourself. I will prescribe some pregnancy-maintaining medicine for you."

Geng Rou felt relieved a little, but she still felt a little guilty and stroked her belly.

Yinzhen called Geng Rou's maid and said, "From now on, keep an eye on your princess and don't let her drink again."

As he spoke, he ordered his men to take away all the wine in Genglou's yard, leaving nothing for her.

"I know you can make wine, but you can't move."

Geng Rou nodded.

Yinzhen stayed with her for a long time and coaxed her to sleep before leaving the room.

When I went out, I saw the cook still kneeling on the ground.

The cook knelt straight.

Yinzhen touched his nose.

It seems that I have wronged her.

"Get up."

The cook thanked him and stood up. Yinzhen thought that Geng Rou seemed to like her cooking very much, so he asked, "Can you cook food for pregnant women?"

"When I was at home, I served my mother when she was pregnant with my younger brother. I can cook all kinds of food."

Yinzhen asked one more question, "Since your parents are still alive, why would you sell yourself to the palace?"

Shang Yan replied: "There was a flood in Tongcheng, and my family...are all gone."

It turned out that it was gone that time.

Yinzhen felt a little more intimate with her.

"Then you will be responsible for the princess's food. I will ask someone to build a small kitchen here tomorrow."

Shang Yanhui lowered his head and responded softly, "Yes."

After Geng Rou woke up, she learned that Yinzhen had opened a small kitchen just for her, and she was extremely happy. Although she no longer had the pleasure of drinking, Shang Yanhui's cooking was really delicious.

She thought to herself that when she felt better, she would ask Qi Yuebin and Xiu Yue to come over for a meal.

-----------------

Upon hearing that Geng Rou was pregnant, Yi Xiu paused for a moment.

The prince she gave birth to in her previous life was the fifth prince Hong Zhou.

I don’t know if it is still the same now, but Yixiu thinks it is most likely the same.

However, although this person lived a long life, he posed no threat, and Hong Zhou's talent was also mediocre.

As the wife of the emperor, she went to see her in person.

Geng Rou smiled happily, "Fujin, I will be a mother in the future, but I have never had a child before, so I will have to learn more from you in the future."

Yixiu: "Take good care of your pregnancy. I will pass on all my experience to you when the time comes."

As the two were talking, a woman came in.

She lowered her head, looking cautious and timid, holding a tray with a bowl of red dates and white fungus soup on it.

"This servant pays respects to Madam Fu Jin."

Yixiu glanced at her and paused.

This woman reminded her of an old friend.

It was An Lingrong.

They don't look very similar, but their temperament is exactly the same.

Yixiu narrowed her eyes.

"Are you the cook who is responsible for the princess's meals?"

"To answer Fu Jin's question, yes."

"Take good care of the princess and don't have any unnecessary thoughts. If you do well, you will be rewarded."

Shang Yanhui responded very respectfully, "I will definitely take good care of the princess."

Yixiu let her go.

Geng Rou's child was the first child born to Yinzhen after he ascended the throne.

According to Fu Cha Langhua's future statement, this child is the first child born after Yinzhen ascended the throne, and should be a noble son.

As expected, Yinzhen also valued this child very much.

He comes every few days.

What Yixiu was worried about never happened, so she forgot about it.

After two months, Geng Rou's fetus was finally stable.

She also became more lively.

Half of the year has passed and the weather is getting hot.

The grapes have been transported to the capital, and because Geng Rou is pregnant, she got a lot of them.

Although Geng Rou couldn't drink, her hands were itching to do it.

She said to her maid Dongqing: "I will make some wine, but I promise not to drink it. I will drink it after the baby is born next year."

Dong Qing quickly advised her: "Gege, you can't touch this wine. If the Fourth Master finds out, you'll be in big trouble."

Geng Rou pointed at the bunch of grapes and said, "What I touched was not wine, but grapes."

Holly opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
