[Qing] Empress Xiao Chengren Reborn

Zhu Jin never had any objection to Xuan Ye's kindness to the concubines and how generous they were to them. Although in recent years, she has become less and less able to suppress the pain and sadness in her heart, she has never shown it in front of Xuan Ye. What, because she knows that Xuan Ye always treats her differently. She is a queen, and if it doesn't involve love affairs, she completely beats everyone in the harem. Can't get past her.

But now, she couldn't bear the matter of Wu Ya's.

Wu Ya's status, status and even appearance are all inferior to her, so why can she win Xuan Ye's favor so much?To be made an exception as a German concubine?

The only explanation may be that Xuan Ye likes her too much, and only if he likes her will he treat her like this, just like Xuan Ye treated her well back then.

She knew Xuan Ye well, Xuan Ye's temperament is like this, if he likes a person, he will definitely treat this person very well, and let the whole world know that he favors this person.

Thinking of this, Zhujin's heart ached. For so many years, she had always remembered what Ergenjueluoshi and Gabra had said to her. The emperor is a ruthless person, and she is definitely not someone she can rest assured to love. They all persuaded her to give up this kind of love, told her not to love Xuan Ye, but unfortunately she couldn't do it. For so many years, her love has been kept in her heart, and it has only increased. They also decided not to tell Xuan Ye in this life These.

But now, she found that she couldn't bear it anymore.

Thinking of the Wu Ya family now occupying Xuan Ye's heart, Zhu Jin's heart felt cold and painful. She didn't know what to do. After entering the palace for 14 years, it was the first time that she felt at a loss and was in a dilemma. There is no way to change this situation, but she has a lot of worries, and she doesn't know what to do when she is in a dilemma, and she doesn't know who to confide in this worry, but she has already restrained her emotions very well. This time, even the personal servant Her mother Long didn't even notice anything unusual, let alone Xuan Ye.

Wu Yashi is extremely well-behaved, never do anything overridden, lives a low-key and quiet life, Zhu Jin is not willing to do anything to Wu Yashi, Wu Yashi did not provoke her, and she does not want to take his life casually.

In November, concubine Dai Jia was pregnant; in December, concubine Guo Luoluo gave birth to fourteenth elder brother Yinqi.

In February of the 19th year of Kangxi, Depin Wu Ya gave birth to a fifteenth elder brother. Xuan Ye was overjoyed and named him Yinzuo immediately.

When the news that Xuanye named the fifteenth elder brother Yinzuo reached Kunning Palace, Zhujin couldn't sit still anymore, she almost bit her lower lip, Yinzuo, Yinzuo!

Doesn't Xuanye know what Zuo means?

Now that the crown prince has been decided, Xuan Ye named the second son of the Wu Ya family Yinzuo. Does this imply that he wants to be a Chu?Guozuo Sheji, is he going to hand it over to Wu Ya's son? !

Zhu Jin was angry, angry and sad, under such circumstances, she couldn't sit still, and immediately secretly summoned Meng Helan's wife, Qu Shi, into the palace.

The Qu family has also given birth to a son and a daughter for Meng Helan these years, and they have a very good relationship with Meng Helan. They also take good care of the children left by Meng Helan's former wife. The eldest son has married, and the second daughter has married. The youngest son is still at home, and I heard that the youngest son treats Qu Shi with great respect, and he also directly called Qu Shi as his mother. From this point of view, it is good for Qu Shi to marry into the Meng family, at least her life is very comfortable, compared to Good in the palace.

Meng Helan didn't have a concubine Ji either, and there was only Qu Shi in the family. It was quite good for the two of them to live like this.

Zhu Jin looked at Qu's who was about to turn [-], she took good care of herself, she couldn't tell that she was [-], and her temperament has improved a lot in these years, she is not like in the palace anymore, Zhu Jin stared at Qu Shi smiled slightly, turned all the people in the room back, and then said straight to the point: "I'll tell you the truth, I called you into the palace because I have something to ask you, and I hope you can give me a definite answer."

Qu Shi hurriedly said: "Master wants to know anything, as long as the servants know it, they must know everything and say everything!"

"Don't make it so tragic, I'm not asking you to do something shameful,"

Zhu Jin smiled and said, "I have stopped the decoction to suppress pregnancy for a few days, and I haven't taken it again. At the beginning, I asked you and my husband to prepare such a decoction for me. The emperor approved it. You, husband and wife, The medical skills are excellent, the medicines given to me are very mild, and have not harmed my body. I have not been pregnant in these years, but now I have decided to stop the medicine. You don’t need to know the reason. I just need to ask you, After the drug is stopped, will this drug affect my fertility? Will I get pregnant again?"

She is not young anymore, she is 28 years old, and it is normal to get married at this age in modern times. If she is pregnant, she is an advanced puerpera. In ancient times, let alone, she is already the mother of several children. The son is already 11 years old. If she becomes pregnant again, it can probably be regarded as an advanced maternal age, right?

What's more, under such medical conditions, whether the body can bear the birth of a 28-year-old child is still unknown.

Whether she can still conceive is still unknown.

This is also the reason why she called Qu Shi into the palace.

She doesn't want to drink those medicines for Xuan Ye anymore, she does these things for him, but Xuan Ye already likes someone else, what's the point of her doing this?

If it's better to let nature take its course, the medicine is too bitter, she doesn't want to drink it, her heart is already bitter enough, why bother to make things difficult for herself?

If you can't conceive, it's okay; if you can conceive, then give birth.

She is a queen, and it's not that she can't afford it. Besides, it's not long before she dies. The emperor always likes the new and dislikes the old. Xuan Ye can't escape this law even if he thinks about it. One day, Xuan Ye will only have family affection with her. With passion, when Xuan Ye gets tired of having sex with her, she will not have any more children.

It's really sad to think about these things. The wish in her heart is to live well and raise her children, but she didn't expect that Lin Li lost her heart and forced herself into such a situation, but fortunately, it's not like before It's good to have such a tragedy.

Qu Shi was startled at first, then he guessed that it was related to Wu Ya Shi, but he didn't dare to say it out, and he didn't dare to ask more, after thinking for a while, he pursed his lips and replied: "Master, it's something to do." You have to know the pulse."

Zhu Jin nodded, without further words, she showed her wrist to feel Qu's pulse.

After a while, Qu Shi withdrew his hand, thought about his choice of words, and said to Zhu Jin: "Master is in his prime, and his body is still in good condition. After the servant felt the pulse, he found that the master's body was not affected by that person. Injured by the decoction, the master is still suitable for conceiving, but the master has just stopped taking the medicine, and part of the medicine is still in the master's body and has not dissipated, so the master will not be pregnant in a short time. But after a long time, it is also very important It's hard to say. But the servant girl can be sure that the master can still conceive, if the master doesn't force it and let nature take its course, maybe there will be."

What Qu Shi said was very general, but Zhu Jin had already heard the answer she wanted to hear, and even though Qu Shi was sent out of the palace, she stopped taking the medicine and didn't mention it.

At the beginning of the 19th year of Kangxi, Zheng Jing's navy was concentrated in Haitan.

In February, Fujian Navy Admiral Wan Zhengse led more than 240 officers and soldiers and 23 warships to attack Haitan. Fujian Governor Wu Xingzuo, Governor Yao Qisheng, and Land Admiral Yang Jie were responsible for solidarity and support.On February 28, Wan Zhengse and others sank [-] of Zheng's ships and wiped out more than [-] of them, and Haitan was conquered.Zheng Jing knew that since Haitan was lost, Xiamen could not be saved.Wu Gui and Luo Shiling, the generals of the Zheng Department, wrote to Yang Jie one after another, detailing Xiamen's support situation, willing to serve as a leader and contribute to the effect.Yang Jie then divided his troops into three groups and took Xiamen directly.Zheng Jing originally wanted to mobilize troops to counterattack, but there was no food in the army for a long time, and Zhu Tiangui was defeated by Chongwu. Chen Chang offered Haicheng to surrender to Qing, and Liu Guoxuan returned to Xiamen.Therefore, Zheng Jing knew that there was nothing to be done, so he set fire to the martial arts hall and led the rest of the people to board a boat and return to Penghu.Facing the powerful offensive of the Qing army, Huang Rui, the commander-in-chief of Xiamen, led his troops to surrender.Xiamen was then restored by the Qing army on February [-], and Wan Zhengse led his troops into the city.Yang Jiesui joined forces with Yao Qisheng and others, taking advantage of the victory to capture Jinmen and Tongshan.

On March [-]th, I was ordered by the general, Prince Kang Jieshu and others to report that the coastal islands of Fujian were recovered by the Qing army.

In June of the 19th year of Kangxi, the concubine Wei was pregnant; in July, the concubine Dai Jia gave birth to the sixteenth elder brother Yinyou.

In July, there was another happy event in the harem. The empress, who had not been pregnant for seven years, was diagnosed to be pregnant in the hot weather.

The decree conferred the honorary concubine Zhang as Concubine Rong, the concubine Dong as Concubine Duan, the concubine Nala as Concubine Hui, the concubine Wuya as Concubine De, the concubine Guo Luoluo as Concubine Wen, The concubine Dai Jia was made a concubine, and Wei was canonized as a good nobleman.

The concubine Guo Luoluo in the decree is the younger sister of the concubine Yi. This time, she was granted the title of concubine as well.

Basically, all the concubines with children in the harem are canonized, but it’s nothing more than a few senior concubines who can be concubine. However, Wu Ya, who has just been promoted to be a concubine, has been promoted again, and he is directly ranked One of the four concubines, this has to make people feel depressed.

The most depressed person has to count the brocade. She really doesn't understand what Xuan Ye means. It's true that she is pregnant. What about embarrassing her?

Concubine De's two sons, the twelfth elder brother Yinzhen now lives in Nansan, she is Concubine De now, and she can see her every day, but Yinzhen is already two years old, and Wu Ya's family has not Raise Yinzhen in her own palace, but raise the weaker fifteen elder brother Yinzuo in her own palace.

Yinzuo was born very weak, and often fell ill after birth. If you say that this Wu Yashi is indeed a very scheming person, as long as Yinzuo is sick, she can always find ways to invite the imperial physician to her palace He sent the news to Xuan Ye. After Xuan Ye learned about it, he felt sorry for his son, so he always went to her to see Yin Zuo. After this trick was played, Wu Ya's intercepted people from other people's palaces not once or twice. that's it.

There were even two times when Wu Ya's family intercepted Xuan Ye from Kunning Palace, Zhu Jin couldn't get angry because it was related to the 'safety' of the fifteenth elder brother.

Wu Yashi provoked her like this, if she still suffers like this, what kind of empress is she in charge of the harem?

To toss a concubine, she has a lot of means, and Wu Ya can only accept the torment in an upright manner.

Meng Helan is hers, and the entire imperial hospital is under Meng Helan's control, and the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital have friendship with Baocheng as teachers and students, and will never betray Kunning Palace.

Therefore, Zhujin announced Qu's entry into the palace, and asked Qu to live in Wuya's palace to see Yinzuo's illness, but did not allow the imperial hospital to go to Wuya's place again. The fifteenth elder brother's illness was delayed, Qu's medical skills were praised by the emperor, and she is also a woman, so she can take care of fifteenth elder brother day and night, which is very convenient.

With Qu's and Meng Helan's arrangements, Wu Ya's never succeeded in delivering Yinzuo's news to Xuanye, and Meng Helan personally informed Xuanye of Yinzuo's illness every day, and Xuanye was never again. Wu Yashi intercepted her, Wu Yashi calmed down, and Zhu Jin didn't bother her any more.

One day after the harem was sealed off, Xuan Ye came to Kunning Palace to see the brocade after finishing his political affairs.

It was a bit late when he came, and the children had finished greeting Zhujin, and they all went back to Nansan to sleep. Duoxihun had already moved to live in Nanxi's residence two months ago, she just listened to Chenghu's words He said that he moved away to make room for the younger brother and younger sister who were coming soon. The little girl was very domineering in other places, but she listened to Cheng Hu very much, and she moved away when she was told to move away.

Now the Kunning Palace is quietly waiting for the son in Zhujin's womb to come to the world.

As soon as Xuanye entered the room, he saw Zhujin gently leaning against the edge of the bed and gently stroking her lower abdomen. He walked over and sat down beside her, and said with a soft smile, "I don't know if it's Elder Brother or Gege this time. I still want another Gege like Duoxihun. I have too few daughters, but Shuyierha, Urgon, and Guoxin are all well-behaved and sensible, while Yargan and Yitu are not. A more lively personality, but she is afraid of me in front of me, not very lively and interesting, but you and my daughter are better, she is sensible and lively, just like my pistachio."

As soon as Xuanye approached, Zhujin smelled the irresistible fragrance of rouge from his body. She had not used rouge powder since she was pregnant, and there was absolutely no such fragrance on her body, and she also smelled it. Not wanting such a scent, frowning, I felt a little stuffy and uncomfortable in my heart, so I moved a bit away from Xuan Ye, and looked at Xuan Ye with a faint smile on my face: "Which concubine's womb is this from, Your Majesty?" Did you come from here? With such a strong fragrance on your body, it doesn't look like a noble concubine or a concubine Rong!"

Without waiting for Xuan Ye to answer, he said to himself: "The concubine is pregnant now and cannot serve the emperor. In fact, the emperor doesn't have to force himself to come here. The emperor can stay in that beauty's palace!"

Such a strong fragrance must belong to Wu Yashi, she felt disgusted in her heart, so her tone was not very good.

Xuanye himself didn't know it, he sniffed the sleeves and smelled the fragrance, then frowned and called Liang Jiugong to come in and change clothes with him, and then smiled apologetically at Zhujin: "I forgot that you are not pregnant. Rouge who loves such a fragrance, this time I was negligent."

Immediately he said again, "I heard Meng Helan say that Yinzuo is not good, so I went to have a look at him, and Concubine De was also with me, it probably happened at that time. When I went, I told Concubine De that yes Those who go to see Yin Zuo will not rest at her place, and she knows that."

Zhu Jin sneered in her heart when she heard this, presumably it was after hearing these words that Wu Yashi contaminated the scent of rouge on Xuan Ye's body, right?

This Concubine De was on duty in Qianqing Palace before, she must have heard of some of her little habits, but she did not expect to use them here now.

It's not that these women don't know about the trivial kung fu jewels, and it's not that they don't understand, they just disdain them.

In these years, no one else has the guts of Wu Yashi to dare to provoke her like this. It seems that Xuanye has given Wu Yashi too much favor, which has made Wu Yashi somewhat confident. This Wu Yashi Probably thought that she was not far from the imperial concubine after giving birth to two elder brothers and being one of the four concubines?

Such a scheming and insidious woman is really annoying!

Seeing Zhu Jin's silence in Xuan Ye's eyes, he couldn't help curling his lips into a half-smile and said, "Why, is Ah Jin jealous?"

Zhu Jin didn't deny it like before, and then teased with Xuan Ye gently, she was unhappy in her heart, and her voice was a little cold at the moment: "The emperor can see through the thoughts of the concubines at a glance, but the concubines can't see through the thoughts of the emperor. .”

"You admit that you are jealous?"

After hearing the first half of the sentence, Xuan Ye was very happy, and even laughed twice, then seeing that Zhu Jin didn't smile, the second half of the sentence floated into his ears, he also stopped smiling, fixedly looked at Zhu Jin and said, "What is the meaning of the second half of Ah Jin's sentence? You are my queen, how can you not know what I'm thinking?"

What he said was what he wanted to be a confidant at the beginning, but in Zhu Jin's heart, it seemed like irony.

She was angry, and she couldn't help blurting out the question that had lingered in her heart for a long time: "If the emperor doesn't say anything, how will the concubine know what the emperor is thinking?"

"If I don't tell you, you won't ask me yourself?"

The two were confronting each other. They looked at each other for a long while, and Zhu Jin's heart sank. You asked me to ask this, so I will ask.

"The concubine doesn't understand why the emperor favors Wu Ya so much?"

Zhu Jin said, "Your Majesty, you know that the harem needs to share the rain and dew evenly, but why have you treated the Wu Ya family so specially in the past few years, and now the harem has become a place of resentment, does the emperor know? Didn't the concubine say that the emperor can't Doting on the Wuya family, the concubine felt that the emperor should take it easy. She was promoted to the concubine after only one year of being a concubine. Isn't this too fast? Everyone in the harem is upset, isn't the emperor so aggressive People, why can't you worry about one or two?"

Xuan Ye stared at Zhu Jin with deep eyes: "I want to know, are you asking this for others, or for yourself, or are you talking to me like a queen?"

Zhu Jin was silent for a while, then lowered her eyes and said, "I... I am asking for myself."

She didn't call herself a concubine, but used the word 'I', which shows that she is speaking on her own behalf, not for the people in the harem, nor as a queen, but as herself, as Zhu Jin. of.

Hearing Zhu Jin's words, Xuan Ye stared at her for a long while, but laughed loudly: "I have been waiting for you for a long time, and finally I have waited for you to ask these questions! I thought you would not ask!"

Zhu Jin was dumbfounded by Xuan Ye's smile, and looked up at Xuan Ye in bewilderment. Shouldn't he be angry when she spoke like that and questioned him so boldly?

Why did you laugh after hearing these words?Zhujin really doesn't understand.

Seeing the puzzlement in Zhu Jin's eyes, Xuan Ye was not in a hurry to explain, but just approached her, and asked with a soft smile: "A Jin, I want to know your thoughts, tell me honestly, I treat Wu like this. Yashi, what are you thinking in your heart? Also, what did you mean by that sentence just now? I treat Wu Yashi well, shouldn't you be happy to see it as a queen, why are you jealous?"

"Why should you be happy to see it come true? Wu Ya has a deep mind, she is not a good concubine in the harem! The emperor can spoil others, but she can't! I don't like her!"

Zhu Jin sighed in her heart, since she has said so much, she can only express her own thoughts, and immediately lowered her eyes and said, "Seeing the emperor like this, I am just unhappy, leave me alone My own identity, putting aside my prejudice against Wu Ya, I think there is only one reason why I am so unhappy, I like the emperor, I like it so much that I can't accept that the emperor treats others so well!"

She raised her eyes, looked at Xuan Ye fixedly, and said word by word: "I take all the love words that the emperor said to me before, I take it seriously, what you said, in your heart, I am different from them , no one can surpass me, so I don't worry about whom you favor, but Wu Yashi, I saw in her that you treat her unusually, so I was not happy, and I also found out, I don't want you to treat her like this. I believed in the emperor's love for me, and then I fell in love with the emperor, so I can't accept the emperor's behavior. "

She saw the threat from Wu Yashi, and that's why she felt so anxious and so distressed.

After she uttered her thoughts, she felt relaxed in her heart. No matter what the result was, it was good for her to say it. Originally, she wanted to say those words to Xuan Ye. After she said them, she would have no regrets in her heart.

Xuanye heard these words, the smile on his face disappeared little by little, he stared into her eyes and said: "You told me at the beginning that you didn't want to accept my sincerity, you only wanted to be my queen. You You also told me about your dream, and in order to reject me, you also said a wish that I couldn't fulfill."

"So, what you are saying now is to tell me, have you changed your mind?"

"No, I haven't changed my mind, I still think that way in my heart, I just—"

Zhu Jin looked at Xuan Ye with sad but clear eyes, "I just can't control my own feelings, I know intellectually that I can't have such feelings, but I can't control it, the emperor treats me too well, And I also gradually understand my own heart, it clearly loves the emperor."

"It's just that I didn't understand my own heart at that time. To tell you the truth, until now, I still think it was right for me to reject the emperor at that time. The emperor and I will never reach an agreement. What I want Things that the emperor can't give, but what the emperor wants, I have already got it today."

This is the real tragedy.

Two people who can obviously be happy with each other, because of the difference in concept, are doomed to have no way to be together well.

It was Xuan Ye who took a step back at the beginning, and the two of them got along well all these years. Now, she is the one who is determined to take a step back. After expressing her heart, she will still be a competent queen.

Xuanye listened to these words quietly, and after she finished speaking, he pinched her hand in his big palm, his eyes bright and with a smile: "I have done so many things in vain, finally I forced you to tell the truth! But I never thought that you could hold your breath so hard that you refused to tell me the truth after holding it back for two years!"

"what?"

Zhu Jin was dumbfounded, and looked at Xuan Ye with wet eyes.

Xuan Ye took her into his arms and explained to her in a low voice: "Do you think I gave up this idea after being rejected by you? I didn't."

"I'm not the kind of person who doesn't count. Since I have expressed my mind, I can't change my mind unless I go to heaven and earth. Although things between you and me are a bit complicated, it is not hopeless. I want to realize your Your wish is not impossible. I want to make some arrangements, but I must also know your mind, so I tested your mind with Wu Yashi. Now I know that you have my heart, You admire me, now I feel relieved and can continue to arrange the things at hand."

"Test me?"

Zhu Jin asked in Xuan Ye's arms, "What did the emperor do without telling me?"

"Yes, to test you. I want to know what you think about me. I chose Wu Yashi after many choices. She has some scheming, she doesn't look very good, and her status is not high. She is the most suitable for such a thing. I If you promote her, it will definitely arouse the jealousy of the people in the harem. If you do the same, then I will know your thoughts. The reason why I promoted her so quickly is also for this, but there is no Thinking of how lucky she is, I didn't spoil her a few times, she was pregnant one after another, and gave birth to two little elder brothers for me, so I took advantage of the opportunity to promote her position, you really said you The truth, but I still waited for two years!"

Zhu Jin couldn't help but cry when he heard this, did he use this method to tempt people?

"Why is the emperor so troublesome, why don't you just ask me?"

"Ask you directly? If I asked you directly, with your temperament, would you tell me?"

Zhu Jin couldn't help nodding secretly when she heard this, it was indeed the case, if Xuan Ye really asked her directly, she would definitely not get the answer she just gave.

"Then does Wu Ya know about this?"

"Her? Of course she doesn't know, how could I tell her?"

Xuan Ye said, "I can only arrange the rest of the matter after I am sure of your thoughts. I am just using Wu Yashi. I have no sincerity towards her. In fact, she is not pitiful. She is now a concubine. Now that I have two sons, it doesn't matter if I use her for a while, I have given her enough. Besides, I am not ignorant of her little tricks in private, although I don't like such scheming A woman, but as long as she lives in peace and order in the future, I won't make things difficult for her."

Hearing that there are things to be arranged later, Zhu Jin immediately had a thought, and used Wu Yashi to get her to tell the truth, and confirmed that her thoughts were not Xuan Ye's ultimate goal, so Xuan Ye finally wanted to—

Just now Xuanye said repeatedly that he did not give up fulfilling her wish, so what he meant was that her wish of being a couple for a lifetime can be fulfilled?

How can this be? !

Zhu Jin understood what Xuan Ye meant, and looked at Xuan Ye in disbelief, only to see Xuan Ye smiled at her and said: "You are right, after I have confirmed your intentions, I am determined not to touch those concubines in the harem again." Concubine, I already have sixteen elder brothers, you and Wei are both pregnant, either elder brother or Princess is fine, I have far more children than the former emperor. With the empress dowager, you can also It's over. The remaining thing is to arrange everything properly, choose an auspicious day in the next two years, and pass the throne to Chenghu. I will be the Supreme Emperor, and I will only be with you alone."
