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

When the queen passed away, the concubines in the harem had to mourn her day and night for three days, and Shen Jiang, who was pregnant, was no exception.

Kangxi would not give her this exception. At most, he would stuff a few more balls of cotton into the cushion on which she was kneeling to make her kneeling more comfortable.

But no matter how much cotton she stuffs, she will still have to kneel for three days!

Not only do you have to kneel, you also have to cry, really cry!

If your fake crying is discovered, it will be considered disrespectful to the late Empress and you will be punished!

Qianlong's eldest son Yonghuang was scolded by Emperor Qianlong because he did not cry sadly enough at the funeral of Empress Xiaoxianchun. He became depressed and died of illness within two years.

"Men from the Aisin-Gioro family are all bad guys!" Shen Jiang cursed in his heart while rubbing his knees.

The system felt sorry for her, so it said, "If it doesn't work, just cheat. I will pretend I didn't see it and won't tell the Lord God."

Shen Jiang: "Didn't you already give me the tear potion? How else can I cheat?"

System: "Your legs! I can't do anything about it."

Shen Jiang thought about it and looked around. Everyone around her was crying very hard and no one paid any attention to her.

So, she gathered her true energy at her fingertips and injected a stream of true energy into her knees. She immediately felt a warm force in her knees, and they were no longer painful or cold.

System: "The boss is the boss."

Shen Jiang: "You promised not to tell!"

System: "Don't worry! I won't tell anyone. Everything is for the child. If you get hurt, the baby in your belly will also suffer."

Shen Jiang: "Humph, so it's for the child, scumbag!"

The system was anxious: "Not only for the child, but also for yourself. I didn't complain to the Lord God about you knocking out the female supporting character with your palm wind in the last plane."

Shen Jiang: "...Since you remember it so clearly, I should clear your memory as well."

The system was speechless.

In fact, the Lord God turns a blind eye to this kind of harmless cheating that will not change the plot.

After getting through three days by cheating, Shen Jiang went back to his room to rest, but he didn't rest for long.

Someone came from Kangxi's side and said that this place would temporarily be used as the coffin of the late empress and it was not suitable for living, so she had to be moved away.

Where should I move to? Since the Yonghe Palace is still unused, I should just live there!

For Shen Jiang, it doesn't matter where you live!

She packed her bag, not taking the two palace maids who served her with her, and went to Yonghe Palace alone.

Before leaving, she saw Aunt Ruyi, who was crying so hard.

I wonder what will happen to her in the future?

Maybe she would guard the coffin of the late queen until her burial, or she might be assigned to another palace. Maybe the emperor would be so kind as to allow her to leave the palace and return home, considering that she had served the late queen.

no one knows.

From then on, Shen Jiang and Aunt Ruyi became strangers.

There were not many people in Yonghe Palace, but there were two little princesses like Shen Jiang, but they were not favored. It was said that there was a concubine in the past, also surnamed Tong Jia, who left the palace inexplicably last year.

It is also rare for a woman who has entered the palace to be able to leave again.

Shen Jiang first lived in the East Side Hall, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs allocated two palace maids to her.

This is officially allocated, not given by a private person, so she feels more at ease using it.

When I asked her name, she called her "Mou Niu" again.

"You will change your names from now on. One will be called Grape and the other will be called Pomegranate." Shen Jiang didn't think much about it, he just felt that these two names were very familiar.

"Thank you, my master, for giving me a name." The two palace maids were also very happy. The master gave them a name, which meant that the master was willing to use them.

As long as they are willing to use it, it's good. They are afraid that they will be sent back to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and then they will never be assigned to a good place and can only do odd jobs.

The system also thinks these two names are good, and it even plans to use these two names for the maids in every plane in the future.

Many children and good fortune, a good omen!

Kangxi suspended court for three days due to the death of the empress. When he returned to court three days later, he was busy with state affairs while taking care of the harem.

Shen Jiang soon received the reward from Kangxi and also welcomed an imperial physician specializing in obstetrics and gynecology.

It turned out that Kangxi was afraid that she would get hurt while kneeling while crying, so he rushed to remedy the situation.

The imperial physician felt her pulse and said with relief, "The patient's pulse is very good, there is nothing serious." He did not even prescribe any medicine.

After returning to report, he presented the pulse diagnosis case to Kangxi, who read it carefully, nodded, and had no intention of interfering.

The imperial physician breathed a sigh of relief. This master was proficient in so many things, even medicine. He often discussed pulse cases and modified prescriptions. All the imperial physicians in the Imperial Medical Bureau were extremely nervous when they met him.

Kangxi asked the imperial physician to leave. At this time, a frail woman walked out from the east room. It was Tong Jia.

"Is the little princess okay?" She asked with a faint smile. When she heard that she was okay, she continued to smile and said, "Palace girls are born with good foundations. I think this time, the emperor will surely have a healthy little prince."

Kangxi glanced at her and said with a smile, "Even the imperial physician doesn't know whether it's a boy or a girl, how do you know it's just a little prince?"

Tong Jia smiled and said, "I guessed, isn't that okay?"

"Okay!" Kangxi shook his head and laughed.

Although there was no explicit rule about the death of the empress, Kangxi still decided to wait for Nianhulu for one year.

He did not summon his concubines, at most he just asked someone from the harem to accompany him for dinner. More often, he would go to Jingren Palace to see Tong Jia, and to Yonghe Palace to check on Shen Jiang...'s belly.

When Shen Jiang had free time, she would copy scriptures. When Kangxi saw these scriptures, he naturally knew that she was copying them for the late empress.

"No matter what, the late queen was very kind to me." Shen Jiang sighed softly, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.

Kangxi was a man who valued friendship and loyalty, so he hoped that everyone around him would be the same as him. No matter how bad the Nianhulu family was, that was a thing of the past.

After the person died, he felt more pity for Niuhulu.

The sadness shown by Shen Jiang was exactly what Kangxi wanted to see, not too sad, nor too cold.

Excessive grief will inevitably harm the body, which is tantamount to disregarding the dragon fetus.

If a person is too cold and indifferent, then what is there to love about him?

Shen Jiang understood Kangxi's thoughts just right, and Kangxi gradually grew fond of her.

While Kangxi still liked her, Shen Jiang made a request: "Your Majesty, the imperial physician said that my pregnancy is good and the baby in my belly is healthy. I would like to ask for a favor. When the child is born, can you not send him out of the palace to be raised?"

That's right, because the mortality rate of Kangxi's early children was too high, most of them were sent out of the palace to be raised by ministers. Except for the crown prince Yinreng who was raised by Kangxi himself, the other princes were all raised in the same way!

Shen Jiang didn't understand. If the palace couldn't even keep the baby alive, how could it be kept alive if sent to someone else's home?

The facts prove that this is not the case. Children raised outside the palace still die.

Kangxi did not agree to her request immediately. No matter how much he doted on a woman, he would never put his love above that of his offspring.

"Don't think too much. Let's wait until you give birth to the baby safely, and then we can discuss where to raise the baby!" Kangxi stroked Shen Jiang's belly and smiled faintly.

Shen Jiang cursed him in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. The system comforted her: "Historically, starting from the Fourth Prince, they were raised in the palace. Don't worry."

Shen Jiang: "But this is not history. A butterfly can cause a tsunami. How can you be sure that nothing will change? If nothing will change, does that mean that the children born to Concubine De will still die if they are destined to die?"

System: "Of course not! Our mission is to protect the child!"

Shen Jiang: "That's it. We have to be careful of any changes."
