Chapter 291 Chenghua 6 Years
In the spring of the sixth year, the first month was already ugly, and the heaven and earth were worshiped in the southern suburbs.
Renshen, in the palace, Concubine Wan has activated
At that time, Wantong was at Wanxi's house, and Wanxi and his wife were scolding him: "If you don't go home for the Chinese New Year, what are you doing in your house? After the key is released in the palace, come here? Aren't you alone? "
"There is something promising next door." Wantong planned to let the elder brother and the others gradually get acquainted with the life of the two of them together.
Of course, Wu Youwei called this "boiling frogs in warm water".
"He is too. Why doesn't he go back to Moling Villa for the New Year? Here, he has to come again after the ancestor worship." As a straight and straight man, Wanxi didn't understand.
"The ancestor worship was handed over to his nephew, and he took his adopted son with him." Wan Tao said, "It's also to train them. In the future, he will always go up and down the yamen in the capital. Moling Villa is too far away."
Wanxi thought about it, isn't it.
And Wu Youwei was socializing in foreign affairs. There was a three-day rest period for the Chinese New Year, but it ended early. If you want to treat guests to dinner, you have to do so at night, so the night of the first lunar month in the capital is cold, but there are many people who come out. Especially during the ten days from the eighth day to the eighteenth day of the lunar new year, the streets are brightly lit.
Wu Youwei treats guests to hot pot, which is in his other courtyard behind the Dechuan Hot Pot Barbecue Restaurant.
Coincidentally, Xu Kuibi, the son of Duke Wei, was also entertaining guests next door.
At first, Wu Youwei didn't know that he was treating guests next door, but Xu Kuibi always brought many people with him when he traveled, and soon he knew that it was Wu's servant next door who was treating guests, so he came over with a glass of wine.
Wu Youwei invited Li Dongyang and the others. By the way, there are still their shares here, but they are just dark shares, and there are more than 30 Jinshi. They are also people who have shared weal and woe. During the exam experience, everyone laughed so hard that they couldn't help themselves. How could they be so energetic at the beginning?Especially Wu Youwei, who came up with this idea, became everyone's focus.
When he was having fun, Xu Kuibi came.
Wei Guogong's son is a stranger to the Imperial Academy.
However, Li Dongyang and the others have indeed heard about this son. After several generations, the nobles have begun to know how to be pampered, and even the unworthy descendants have become dudes.
But Wei Guogong's mansion is a different kind, not to mention the weak blood, the previous generation was cut off, and the brother died, but this generation, it is said that Wei Guogong's son is not... very strong.
Wu Youwei also knew that in history, Xu Kuibi was destined to die young, but when he saw Xu Kuibi this time, he almost couldn't recognize him!
I saw that Xu Kuibi really lived up to his name this time, not only his body became much stronger, but his face was as rosy as an apple, not as pale and weak as before.
With bright eyes, he laughed when he saw Wu Youwei: "I heard that you are entertaining your colleagues next door, so come over to say hello."
"My son." Wu Youwei swallowed, "My son is recovering well."
"Yes!" Xu Kuibi smiled more sincerely: "Thanks to Lord Wan.
"Wantong?" Wu Youwei was taken aback by him..."
"He gave me a few small pills, and I'm much better. Thanks to the excellent medical skills of the imperial physician who was rewarded by the emperor, my body, according to the imperial physician, is no different from ordinary people." Xu Kuibi's eyes brightened: "Shang The father-in-law also sends people to deliver suitable food to take care of his body every day, and he will marry a wife this year.
"Congratulations!" Wu Youwei laughed as soon as he heard it: "I'll go have a glass of wedding wine then.
"Definitely, definitely!" Xu Kuibi greeted Li Dongyang and the others again, because Li Dongyang's wife, Zhu Shi, was the daughter of Cheng Guogong Zhu Yi, and she was from a noble family, so she was half of her own.
Li Dongyang brought everyone to respect the prince with a glass of water and wine, Xu Kuibi left, as if he came here to say hello to Wu Youwei, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, did not hear, who is the prince of Duke Wei close to?Maid Wu actually knew him. It seems that the relationship is not bad?
Although I have doubts in my heart, there is no rule that Hanlin cannot make friends with nobles.
Everyone laughed and passed away, and continued their topic, basically talking about things in the Hanlin Academy. After eating and drinking enough, they went outside in groups to watch the lanterns, and they even guessed riddles together to win the lanterns. There are activities every year, but they enjoy it very much.
They went shopping again, and finally left. Wu Youwei returned home, and Wantong also returned.
The next day when the two of them were about to go to work, the father-in-law from Wanfei Palace came to report.
"Is it the prince or the princess?" Wantong stood up excitedly.
"It's a prince!" It was the disciple of the chief eunuch of Zhaode Palace who came to report the letter, smiling so hard that he couldn't see his eyes: "It only took an hour to give birth, and it didn't even use ginseng soup!"
Both Wu Youwei and Wantong were overjoyed. The steward of Wanfu specially sealed a big red envelope for the father-in-law who came to announce the good news, and then happily asked people to drag out the congratulatory gifts that had been prepared a long time ago, and let the adults send them into the palace.
Wantong was already ready quickly, pulling Wu Youwei to go outside.
"Why are you going?" Wu Youwei walked a few steps with him involuntarily being pulled by him, and when he finally reached the door, he hugged the door frame and stopped.
"Enter the palace and see the elder sister!" Wantong was so happy that he couldn't control himself: "I have a nephew."
Even if Bai Xiang'er gave birth to the eldest son of the emperor, and the eldest sister also gave birth to the second son of the emperor, they would have someone to rely on when they get old, and the two princesses would not become rootless duckweeds.
"Are you overly happy?" Wu Youwei said amusedly, "I can't enter the palace."
He only went in twice, once for the Palace Examination and once for the Qionglin Banquet, and he went to the front palace, not the harem.
"Look at me!" Wantong was taken aback for a moment, then laughed dumbly: "It turns out..."
I was so happy that I forgot that Wu Youwei was not him, so he couldn't just bring him into the harem.
"Okay, you go. I can hear the news when I go to the Imperial Academy." Don't underestimate the Imperial Academy. As the emperor's close minister, the news from the Imperial Academy is the most flowing, no slower than that of the supervisor.
The two went out happily, Wantong took his things to the palace, and Wu Youwei went to the Imperial Academy to see how the wind is going today.
This second son of the emperor was born to Emperor Xianzong's beloved woman Wan Zhen'er. When Emperor Xianzong obviously disliked the eldest son of the emperor, this second son of the emperor might make some people stand in line...
In the palace, Bai Xiang'er's pretty face was already distorted: "Concubine Wan, Wan Zhen'er...you old woman gave birth to a son by luck!"
Hearing the same news, Mrs. Bozhen, who entered the palace early in the morning, also said sourly: "It's really lucky!"
Liang, you have to help Xiang'er! "Bo Xiang'er tore off several handkerchiefs: "She was already favored, but now she has a son. "
'An old woman, what are you afraid of? Mrs. Baizhen has never met Wan Zhen'er, so she thinks that a 40-year-old woman can be pretty? The most important thing is her grandson: "How long can I have more love?"Now you must take good care of the eldest son of the emperor is the key point, she gave birth to the second son.
Bai Xiang'er was upset: "She has already given birth to a son! Adding to the rumors some time ago, I have no idea!
She looks at Wan Zhen'er every day, but it seems that time takes special care of Wan Zhen'er, she has always been like that, neither old nor young, 30 years old, is the most mature age for a woman, stable, quiet, like old wine, with years aroma.
She is still the woman who knows the emperor best, and the emperor was raised by her alone...
"Your is the eldest son of the emperor!" Mrs. Baizhen emphasized: "Your father is working outside, and your concubine sisters have grown up, it's time to contribute to the family.
Marriage, no matter how old the other party is or what they do, as long as it is beneficial to the Bai family, then get married, no matter what!
Anyway, there are quite a few concubines in the Bai family, all of whom are used by her son and daughter to win connections, otherwise how could she tolerate those sluts?
"Yes, marriage, marriage!" Bai Xiang'er seemed to have found a life-saving straw: "United ministers, let my son be the crown prince, I think what can Concubine Wan do? So what if she is favored? My son is the crown prince!"
Mrs. Bo Zhen nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, my grandson is the eldest son of the emperor. The future wife..."
On the other side, in the Qingning Palace, the Empress Dowager Zhou was listening to the old mother.
Because of Wan Zhen'er's background, after she had the final say in her own Zhaode Palace, she was very kind to the palace people, so after the old mother passed, she also treated them equally, and the palace people in Zhaode Palace were the most united Because Wan Zhener is not a lady who can hold airs, she is very kind and lives like a family. This is a rare paradise for the palace people, and Wan Zhener herself is because of her age The relationship with the emperor has always been subject to all kinds of attention from the outside world, so she is absolutely reluctant to let the maids in her palace spend their time in the palace like her, so usually when she is 20 years old, she will let the maids marry on their own , When they leave the palace, they will be rewarded with 20 taels of silver, a set of gold noodles, a set of silver noodles, and two bolts of red silk as dowry.
In addition to the silver accumulated by the maid herself, it is enough to live a stable life.
If it is a grand palace lady, she can get more dowry, but the father-in-law will not have this treatment.
However, Wan Zhen'er was also very kind to her father-in-law, never beating or scolding them, and never withholding the monthly money of the palace people, so that after the old woman passed by, she felt that the treatment she received from Bai Xiang'er was completely different from that of Bai Xiang'er's. !
Naturally, the old mother was talking to Wan Zhen'er: "The concubine Wan has taken good care of her. The prince was born fat and white. When he was in labor pains, the maidservant said that he would invite the imperial doctor, but the empress said that the New Year's Palace is busy. Very soon, don't worry about it, anyway, it's not the first time to give birth, and it won't be too late to surprise people after it is born." "This child is just considerate." The Queen Mother Zhou was very satisfied with Wan Zhen'er's knowledge and wit.
When Bai Xiang'er gave birth to the emperor's eldest son, she started to tossing and tossing early, causing her to wait anxiously for a long time. She was extremely tired, not physically, but mentally.
From the time she was born to when she was born, everyone in the palace was tossing and turning.
Wan Zhen'er was much more considerate. When she gave birth, she woke up in the morning and had just had breakfast. At dawn, she began to have labor pains. An hour later, the second son was born.
"The prince is also filial. It only takes an hour from the time of labor pains to the birth." The old mother smiled and said something that the Queen Mother Zhou loved to hear: "It is really right for the concubine Wan to close the palace. It is really hard for the emperor's heir. She was raised so meticulously that she gave birth to a fat boy without even using ginseng soup!"
The old mother is also a person who holds grudges. She has served her in the palace all her life. Who wouldn't give her some face?
Concubine Bai treated her whenever she was called, showed no respect at all, and even beat and scolded her; while Concubine Wan respected her very much, and even asked two little maids to serve her and learn from her , a comparison, of course she likes Concubine Wan more
So there are pitfalls inside and outside the words, and Bai Xianger is trying hard to pit Bai Xianger.
When she said that, it reminded the Queen Mother of Zhou that when Concubine Bai was pregnant, the movement was so loud!
The Empress Dowager and the Empress turned a blind eye to the fact that the Bai family secretly sent things to the palace, but they already knew about it.
Simply what the emperor meant was that the Bai family could just give it to Concubine Bai, as long as the Bai family didn't give it to other palaces, they could raise Concubine Bai if they were willing.
It can also save some money for the internal treasury.
"That child is an honest person. The emperor has no sons. She is more anxious than anyone else. Maybe the emperor likes her." The Empress Dowager Zhou smiled and nodded: "Let someone go to the library to get some good medicinal materials and send them to Zhaode Palace. Make up for Concubine Wan." "The empress dowager, the concubine Bai didn't give it to the concubine Wan, so I gave it to the concubine Wan, this...?" The old mother hesitated: "Is it okay?"
