Transmigrated into a Qing Dynasty concubine and asked the system to help me raise my children

Yongzheng came back in the afternoon. He was a detail-obsessed person, so he naturally noticed the fragrance and casually asked if the spices had been changed.

Shen Jiang said with a half-smile: "Yes, I heard that the princess specially asked for the fragrance recipe from the palace. What do you think of it?"

Yongzheng was indifferent to all this and just said, "That's it! If it smells good, use it. If it doesn't, change it back to the original one."

Shen Jiang stood beside the large cloisonné incense burner, looking at the drifting smoke. She waved her hand gently, and the smoke scattered. She smiled faintly and said, "This is a token of my love from the princess. I will definitely use it every day."

After that, she really used this incense every day. Yongzheng just thought that she liked it, so he instructed the steward to provide this incense recipe exclusively for his concubine.

Shen Jiang gradually became "weak" due to excessive use of harmful incense and drugs. Yongzheng was very worried and asked the imperial physician to see her, but the imperial physician could not say anything.

"It's probably because the concubine was injured during childbirth." The imperial physician was vague.

Yongzheng was furious and shouted, "If you said that she was injured after giving birth, how come you didn't find out until the little princess was over a year old? It shows that you are ignorant and incompetent!"

Fortunately, he was not the emperor yet, otherwise he would have been frightened to death by the dismissal of the imperial physician.

Shen Jiang advised him: "Sir, don't blame them. Maybe I just developed the disease late. I know my own body. I am weak to begin with."

Yongzheng comforted her in return: "Don't be afraid, I will cure you even if I lose everything I have."

Shen Jiang sighed inwardly. She had wanted to put on a good show, but ended up making him worry about it.

She raised her arm and gently touched his face, giving him a guilty smile.

Yongzheng held her hand and rubbed it against his lips. Although the two looked at each other in silence, their eyes were full of tenderness.

Since Shen Jiang was "sick", everyone in the mansion had to come to visit him.

I don’t know if the princess felt guilty, but she didn’t show up in person and only asked Sister Qiu to come.

Sister Qiu secretly observed Shen Jiang's complexion and saw that she was pale and weak in her limbs, and she coughed from time to time while talking.

She went back to report to the princess, and Ulanara was surprised, "Is this medicine really so effective? It didn't seem to have worked before!"

Sister Qiu said, "This incense recipe has been revised and improved. Plus, Concubine Nian is already weak, so if these two things happen, she will become seriously ill."

Ulanara nodded and said, "If you are sick, it will be fine. If you are sick, you will lose favor. If you lose favor, you will have no children. No one can surpass me."

Sister Qiu: "The master is right."

Shen Jiang knew that the princess had been deceived by her, so she just went ahead with the show.

The next day, Li also came.

As soon as Li entered the room, she smelled that familiar scent. At this moment, her expression changed, as if she had returned to a scene from the past that she never wanted to recall.

"Concubine Li, are you okay?" Shi Liu, who was opening the curtain, looked at her suspiciously.

Li's expression changed again and again, and finally she calmed down, forced a smile, and said, "It's okay, it's okay, go in quickly!"

She walked into Shen Jiang's room, the smell became stronger, her eyes fell on the cloisonné incense burner, and she froze again.

Shen Jiang had already seen through her expression. It seemed that Li knew about it.

"Sister Nian, are you feeling better?" Li asked with a smile.

Shen Jiang smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, sister. That's all."

Li asked tentatively, "Why did you suddenly get sick when you were fine?"

Shen Jiang held the handkerchief and coughed twice, saying, "Who knows? The imperial physician said that she was injured after giving birth, so let's just assume that's the case!"

Li said: "Even if that's the case, the little princess is already over one year old, how could it be possible?"

Shen Jiang smiled and said, "My master said so too, but what can I do? Just think of it as my weak body and bad luck."

Li was silent. As she sat there, the scent of the fragrance filled her nostrils, making her feel very uncomfortable.

Shi Liu brought her tea. She took a few sips to get by. Then she put the tea bowl down, saying that she had something else to do in the yard, and left in a hurry.

Before leaving, she took another look at the incense burner, gritted her teeth, and lowered the curtain.

After waiting for a few days, Li still did not take any action, so Shen Jiang knew that she would not say anything.

The women in the backyard seemed to be harmonious and peaceful on the surface, but in fact they all had their own ulterior motives.

Since no one said anything, Shen Jiang remained "sickly" as before. People thought that Yongzheng would favor other women if she was sick, but they didn't expect that Yongzheng still regarded this as his only backyard and was more considerate to her than before.

Although this made Ulanara slightly dissatisfied, she was relieved that Shen Jiang could not have children.

In a blink of an eye, it was the little princess's two-year-old birthday. There was no big celebration in the mansion. Yongzheng just had a meal with Shen Jiang and her daughter.

A few days later, a message came from Ulanara's family saying that the eldest daughter of Li, who had married, was not feeling well.

Before Yongzheng returned from the court, his only grown-up and married daughter died.

When Li found out, she couldn't stop crying. When the prince wanted to marry her daughter to the princess's family, Li was reluctant. But if she didn't marry, her daughter would be forced to be humiliated, so Li had no choice but to agree.

Unexpectedly, after only a few years of marriage, her daughter...her daughter is gone!

"The Second Princess must have been killed by someone from the Ulanara family! She was murdered!" Li was overwhelmed by the pain of losing her daughter, and she wanted the prince to avenge her daughter!

How could Yongzheng feel good when he saw Li crying and sobbing?

Li gave birth to a daughter and three sons for him, and one daughter and one son survived. This daughter finally grew up, and he watched her get married and have children. With him as a father, he thought there would be no troubles in the second half of her life. But who knew... It was really fate that played tricks on him!

Yongzheng suppressed his grief and warned Li to be careful with her words: "Since the beginning of winter last year, the second princess's health has not been good. The second princess died of illness. Don't let your imagination run wild."

"No! No!" Li cried, "Second Princess is not a child anymore, how could she die from illness? Xingde was not good to her, he abused Second Princess!"

Yongzheng shouted: "No one dares to abuse the royal princess!"

Li opened her tearful eyes and looked up at him. Suddenly she laughed. She laughed almost crazily, crying as she laughed. She said, "It's retribution! She harmed my Hongyan, and I've returned her. My Second Princess is innocent! I lost favor in front of you, but Concubine Nian did not. You are so smart, how could you not guess why Concubine Nian has been bedridden for the past year?"

Yongzheng's face turned pale, and he pinched her jaw and asked, "What did you say?"

Li just cried, and Yongzheng pushed her aside and went to Shen Jiang's yard.

Shen Jiang was leaning on the couch reading a book when he saw Yongzheng and two trusted imperial doctors walk in. He pretended not to know and walked up to him and asked, "What's wrong, Master?"

Yongzheng waved his hand and said to the two doctors, "Check carefully and don't miss a single inch!" He comforted Shen Jiang and said, "Don't be afraid, I will give you justice."

Shen Jiang pretended not to know, carried the little princess out, and went to Yongzheng's front yard first.

She didn't expect it to happen so soon. She thought she would have to wait for a while!
