Prodigal Son of the Ming Dynasty

  Chapter 649 That’s right, it’s the crow’s mouth

  It is already early winter, and there is already snow in the capital.

   Bad news came one after another, so that Fang Jifan had to hide, it's better not to wander around.

  Seven side concubines, all of them were princesses.

  Fang Jifan likes the princess, but it doesn't mean that he ran to congratulate Zhu Houzhao at this time.

  People have different concepts. In this era, in the world of the clan, males are of great significance. Logically speaking, there are seven of them. If you count as buying two-color balls, you may not win seven in a row.

   But fate is so wonderful, Zhu Houzhao hit seven in one breath.

   This had to make all the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty frustrated.

  Where's the emperor's grandson? Where's the promised emperor's grandson?

   In order to wait for the grandson of the emperor, what a disaster.

  The cabinet ministers can clearly see that their spirits are not very good recently.

  As for the Hanlin Academy, it is like mourning and concubine examination.

  Fang Jifan couldn't understand how people of this era were so obsessed with their sons.

  So, he obediently hid in the princess mansion and didn't go out for almost a month.

  Seeing Her Royal Highness's belly growing day by day, Fang Jifan felt a little bit more hopeful. He had so many disciples and grandchildren, but the child in his stomach gave him a completely different feeling.

  Zhu Xiurong's body was a little clumsy, and it seemed to be more of a psychological factor. At this time, the child in her belly was still young, so there would not be any inconvenience.

  Zhu Houzhao finally came to the door: "Old Fang, Lao Fang."

  He was always so carefree, and Fang Jifan didn't look very good when he saw him.

  Zhu Houzhao saw the princess knitting a sweater with her head bowed, so she stepped forward and said cheerfully, "No, sister, you have no talent. My brother can knit better than you with his eyes closed."

  Zhu Xiurong: "..."

  At this time, Zhu Houzhao is obviously the most depressed and vulnerable. Fortunately, he is still interested in studying this.

  Fang Jifan hooked his shoulder: "Your Highness, let's go, let's have a few drinks."

  Zhu Houzhao was reluctant to let go, and couldn't help but said to Zhu Xiurong: "Sister, next time, I will teach you, a new stitch method has been developed recently, which can be knitted more densely..."

  Fang Jifan was afraid that Zhu Houzhao would irritate his wife, and then the child in his belly, so he finally pulled Zhu Houzhao away.

After looking for the pavilion in the back garden, the two sat down and ordered someone to cook wine and vegetables. Zhu Houzhao just said with emotion: "I don't understand why when you turn your legs, it's a girl, and when you turn your legs, it's another girl." , seven in a row?"

   He shook his head and sighed.

Fang Jifan comforted him and said: "Your Highness, men and women are the same, there is nothing wrong with it, I just like princesses, look, how cute, I couldn't go there a few days ago, lest I see you angry, this is a full moon gift for children. Everything is ready, Your Highness is my uncle, and these seven princesses, each of them is 30,000 taels of silver, it's a trivial matter, it's not a respect."

  Each person is 30,000 taels, seven people is 210,000 taels of silver, which is definitely a terrifying amount.

But now for Fang Jifan, although two hundred and one thousand taels of silver is a lot, it is nothing. The sales of coal mines in Xishan are amazing, sweaters from weaving workshops, glass workshops, farmhouse projects, and fishing products. To share dividends with the royal family, after one year, it will be as much as one million taels just in the account.

Zhu Houzhao shook his head: "That's not what I mean, you don't understand, I just can't swallow this breath, I know myself, my daughter is also my own flesh and blood, but the world knows that I gave birth to seven children in a row Girls, don’t they want to be made fun of? I can’t swallow this breath. Besides, girls are not good either. How can I pass on the ability of riding and shooting to those girls? You must have a son.”

  He sighed with emotion, thinking his son was crazy, his eyes were bloodshot.

Fang Jifan laughed: "This is your pedantic opinion. I really want to give birth to a girl and teach her how to ride and shoot. Just wait and see, the child in the belly of the princess, I see, nine out of ten will be... "

   When he said this, Zhu Houzhao covered his mouth: "Shut up, I still want a nephew!"

  Fang Jifan could hardly breathe, finally broke Zhu Houzhao's hand away, panting heavily.

  Zhu Houzhao said: "Wang Shouren went to Jiaozhi, I don't know how he is? I heard something."

  Fang Jifan said: "What did your Highness hear?"

  Zhu Houzhao seemed displeased: "Jiaozhi Tixue impeached Bo'an, saying that he was not doing his job properly, and the deputy Tixue had the duty of observation, but Bo'an was in Jiaozhi..."

  Fang Jifan became angry when he heard it: "That old dog dares to scold Bo'an, but he scolds me. Is his family in the capital?"

  Zhu Houzhao said: "Calm down, don't be impulsive."

  Fang Jifan rolled up his sleeves: "Look for his son, I don't even recognize him after all this time."

Zhu Houzhao said cheerfully: "Let's just listen to what Ben Gong said, and Bo'an also made a memorial to impeach this pedantic scholar. Sure enough, people who have read the book are different."

  Fang Jifan's talents became smoother.

  Think about it carefully, yes, he is Wang Shouren, what kind of evil is Wang Shouren, he has been in the rivers and lakes for decades in history, where can't he get along?

After the food and wine were served, Fang Jifan lamented: "These disciples are all outside, and Ouyang Zhi is with the emperor. Only Jiang Chen and Liu Wenshan have nothing to do. Stereotypes, sometimes, when I think about it carefully, Jiang Chen and Liu Wenshan really shouldn't have accepted them as disciples in the first place, and I have lost my reputation."

   Zhu Houzhao sneered.

Eating and drinking, the two of them have been in the wine shop for a long time. The alcohol content of the drinks in this era is low, but Fang Jifan likes rice wine, the alcohol content is not high, after warming up, the taste is excellent, and the body is also warm. He can't understand. Why is the white wine sought after.

  After the wine was over, Zhu Houzhao suddenly became depressed: "Sometimes, this palace is really worrying. After giving birth to seven daughters, why are there seven? Even if there is a boy, it will be a bit of face to go out."

   Shaking his head.

Fang Jifan said: "I think His Royal Highness don't have to worry, isn't there still Concubine Shen? The child in her belly is already eight months old. No matter how bad Your Highness is, how can I give birth to an eighth daughter, Fang Jifan... He He ...I still don't believe it, if God has the guts, let's try another daughter..."

   Zhu Houzhao stared at Fang Jifan: "Shut your crow's mouth."

   "..."

  Is your own mouth really a crow's mouth?

  Fang Jifan was a little suspicious: "Where is my crow's mouth, just wait and see, Concubine Shen will definitely give birth to a son safely."

  But at this time, Liu Jin came out of breath and said: "Your Highness, Your Highness...it's not good, it's not good."

  Liu Jin is not like an **** now. Most of the eunuchs speak in a high-pitched voice, but since Liu Jin cooked that pot of hot pot, his voice is particularly deep and hoarse, very demeanor of a bass.

  When he saw Zhu Houzhao, he bowed down, trembling all over: "Your Highness, it's too bad."

  Zhu Houzhao was furious: "You crow mouth, shut up."

Liu Jin howled and cried: "Your Highness, Your Highness, Concubine Shen... for some reason, she suddenly felt a severe stomachache. The imperial doctors have already gone, and even your majesty and empress have already been informed. The imperial doctors said... said ..."

  Fang Jifan's face was miserable.

   Fuck.

  Zhu Houzhao also shuddered: "This... only eight months pregnant, didn't you mean October pregnant?"

   Liu Jin said: "His Royal Highness, hurry up, go and have a look."

  Zhu Houzhao shuddered, also anxious.

  Now, he puts all his hopes on Concubine Shen.

  Who ever thought, something went wrong.

  He didn't dare to neglect: "Old Fang, follow me."

  Fang Jifan didn't hesitate either. Although he had no experience in things like giving birth, but now that something like this happened, he had to go and see.

  The two of them hurried out of the Princess Mansion, rode their horses and swung their whips, and arrived at the East Palace.

  In the East Palace, it was already a mess.

  It seems that everyone's face is covered with a gloomy atmosphere.

  Zhu Houzhao thumped in his heart, feeling that his legs were a little weak.

  Maybe he didn't feel it normally, but at this moment, he suddenly realized that he was also afraid sometimes.

  He didn't dare to ask these eunuchs and maids what happened, but strode to the apse.

  Fang Jifan followed behind. Seeing that he was about to enter the imperial court, he was a little hesitant.

  Zhu Houzhao walked a few steps, saw Fang Jifan standing beside the moon cave with hesitation on his face, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Come quickly."

  Fang Jifan thought to himself, I am aboveboard, why not go in, I Fang Jifan is a decent person, everyone knows that I am Liu Xiahui, so let him go.

  Hurriedly followed Zhu Houzhao to the back bedroom, at this time, he saw the imperial doctor.

  When an imperial doctor saw Zhu Houzhao coming, he hurriedly saluted: "Your Highness, for some reason, Concubine Shen's stomach hurts badly...it seems...the child is about to be born early."

   "Premature?" Zhu Houzhao's face turned pale.

  But the imperial doctor's face was not at all relaxed.

  Conceived for eight months, in fact, it doesn't matter if you are born.

   At least in later generations, this is nothing.

   It's just that in this era, having a baby is risky after all.

  But the imperial doctor was like a mourner: "The biggest problem right now is...is..."

  Zhu Houzhao sternly said, "What is it?"

  The imperial doctor was scared out of his wits, as if he was afraid that if he said it, Zhu Houzhao would slap him and send him flying.

   "Looking at it now, I'm afraid...I'm afraid it didn't go so smoothly. The fetal position is wrong, with the feet on the bottom."

  Zhu Houzhao looked sideways, and glanced at Fang Jifan: "What does it mean that the feet are down?"

  Fang Jifan tried his best to explain: "If the fetal position is correct, the head will be at the bottom. When it is born, the head will be seen first. But if the fetal position is not correct, it will be difficult to give birth. This means that it may... Difficult delivery."

  Zhu Houzhao's face turned pale, and he suddenly said: "I would rather have a daughter, why is it difficult to give birth? You **** quack doctors, get out of here."

  …

  The second chapter was delivered, and the forty-second leader was picked up by the classmate "Just Like Xiaoyu". We thanked "Just Like Xiaoyu" with warm applause. The tiger bowed and thanked the boss for his care.
