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

When Shen Jiang arrived at the main hall, Concubine Tong and the other seven concubines had also arrived and were surrounding the Crown Prince, clapping and laughing.

The Crown Prince was driving the tricycle, and the more people around him praised him, the more proud he became.

The Fourth Prince was in his wet nurse's arms, watching coldly.

Shen Jiang stepped forward to pay her respects, and Tong Jia said with a smile, "You are pregnant, so don't be so polite. Look, the crown prince is having so much fun!"

Shen Jiang pulled the corner of her mouth, but before she could say anything, Yipin followed up and said, "I heard that this tricycle was made by Depin's sister at the Imperial Household Department. It looks really good. When my little prince is born, I will also ask the Imperial Household Department to make one for him."

Shen Jiang: Haha!

Huipin touched her belly and said, "Looking at the shape of your belly, it really looks like a little prince. You should give birth in two months, right?"

Yipin smiled and said, "She was born in about the twelfth month."

"That child will suffer during his third birthday."

"Yes!"

"I don't know which of you sisters will be the master. If both of you are princes, your Guoluo family will be in a good position."

"It's all the grace given by the emperor."

Shen Jiang did not participate in their conversation. He walked to the other side of the Fourth Prince and touched his head.

Yinzhen looked up at her, his eyes calm.

Shen Jiang seemed to see no emotion in the child's eyes. If it were any other child, seeing the Prince playing with a tricycle, they would definitely reach out for it, but the Fourth Prince seemed to have no emotion.

"Enie," Yinzhen called her.

Shen Jiang squatted down to be at eye level with him, and asked with a smile: "Fourth Brother, today is your birthday, are you happy?"

Yinzhen nodded, but didn't say he was happy. He just held her arm and said, "Enie, get up."

Shen Jiang has a big belly, so it must be uncomfortable for her to squat like this.

Shen Jiang felt the Fourth Prince's concern and smiled more gently, but she still felt that the child was too sensible and didn't look like a one-year-old at all.

The banquet was ready and everyone was seated. Kangxi was merciful and allowed the Fourth Prince and Shen Jiang to sit together.

When Yipin saw the baby chair that the Fourth Prince was sitting on, she was curious again and said, "Sister Depin is always creative. Look, this chair was specially made by the Imperial Household Department, right?" She turned around and said to Kangxi, "Your Majesty, ask the Imperial Household Department to make a few more. When my child can sit, he will sit on this one, too."

Kangxi agreed and said, "From now on, every child should be given a chair like this."

Shen Jiang smiled and said nothing.

System: "Shame on you! This is clearly what you gave to the Fourth Prince!"

Shen Jiang was open-minded and said, "This is not my patent."

The system was still cursing in dissatisfaction, and the palace servants began to serve the dishes. The Fourth Prince could not eat any of these dishes, and he only ate a bowl of longevity noodles in the end.

After the meal, a red cloth was covered with various small toys, including small bows and arrows, pens, ink, paper, and inkstones, rattles, small abacus, small seals, etc.

The Fourth Prince stood in front of the red cloth. According to his nature, he should have reached for the seal! But Kangxi and the Crown Prince were both there, so he had no choice but to hold a pen in one hand and a book in the other.

The Fourth Prince didn't want to listen to the praises coming from all around him. When the Crown Prince was doing his one-year-old birthday celebration, he grabbed a bow and arrow and a seal. What was the result?

In my previous life, I was the ultimate winner, and I must be the winner in this life as well!

"Let's eat cake!" Shen Jiang pushed out the birthday cake.

Everyone had never seen this kind of cake before, and they gathered around. The crown prince secretly dipped a little with his finger and put it in his mouth. His eyes lit up immediately: "So sweet!"

Originally, the first piece of cake should have been given to the birthday boy, but that was not possible now. The first piece had to be tasted by the eunuch. After confirming that there was no problem, Kangxi gave it to the Grand Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager first, then ate it himself, followed by the Crown Prince and other concubines.

When it was the Fourth Prince's turn, he got a small piece, tasted it, and nodded: "Well, is this the gift that Enie wants to give me? It's called a birthday cake, not bad."

Shen Jiang, who was originally full of expectations for the first birthday party, was constantly poured cold water on from the very beginning, and now she has become numb.

Instead of having a big event, it’s better to have a small and quiet one!

After Kangxi and the others left, Shen Jiang was left alone in the Cining Palace.

The Empress Dowager was a little tired, so she said, "You and your son haven't had a good conversation today. I'll take a break and you two can have a good chat!"

"Thank you, Queen Mother."

Shen Jiang came to the Fourth Prince's room and sent the wet nurse away. The mother and son sat on the kang. Shen Jiang asked, "Is the birthday cake delicious?"

The fourth prince nodded: "It's delicious."

Shen Jiang said: "On your next birthday, I will save the first piece of cake for you."

In the mind of the Fourth Prince, the elders should pick up their chopsticks first, and then the younger ones can eat. But Ene was so serious, he was very grateful, raised his head and smiled: "Okay!"

Shen Jiang held him in his arms and said softly, "Baby, I love you, I will always love you. Do you want that tricycle, baby?"

But the Fourth Prince shook his head like a rattle and said in a very resistant tone, "No!"

"why?"

The Fourth Prince looked at her and said two words: "How stupid."

Shen Jiang: ...

Is this true? This child is so precocious?

Perhaps this is the appearance of an emperor, born with a domineering aura?

The Fourth Prince yawned and tugged at Shen Jiang's sleeve: "I'm sleepy."

Shen Jiang held him in his arms, patting him and singing a nursery rhyme to lull him to sleep, the same one he had listened to since he was a child.

The Fourth Prince loved this moment the most, falling asleep in his mother's arms listening to nursery rhymes.

After the Fourth Prince fell asleep, Shen Jiang tiptoed out and asked the wet nurse to go in and take care of him while she went to say goodbye to the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager smiled and asked, "Falling asleep?"

"Yes, it's time for me to leave."

It was cold outside, so the palace's sedan chair was replaced with a sedan chair. As they boarded the sedan chair, Shen Jiang said to the system, "I always feel that the Fourth Prince is a little different from other children."

System: "Is it worn? No, I have marked him, and he doesn't usually say anything shocking, so it shouldn't be."

Shen Jiang: "Please keep an eye on it for me."

System: “Understood.”

At the end of December, Guo Luoluo gave birth to a daughter and Yipin gave birth to a son.

Kangxi was very happy that he had both a son and a daughter at once. The daughter could be raised by anyone, but the son had to be raised by a high-ranking concubine.

"Isn't Concubine Yi already the main concubine? Why can't she raise the child?" Shen Jiang asked.

Kangxi said bluntly: "Although Concubine Yi is the main concubine, she is a bannerman after all, and her status is not high enough. Moreover, she herself has little knowledge and is not suitable for raising a prince."

Shen Jiang subconsciously covered her belly. She thought that she could raise the child herself after being promoted to concubine. She didn't expect that Kangxi's class concept was so serious!

Baoyi! Baoyi! Don’t you like sleeping with the servants of the Baoyi family? Now that you have a child, you look down on the identity of the Baoyi family!

Kangxi saw that she was pale and holding her stomach, thinking that she was feeling unwell, and asked hurriedly: "Are you feeling unwell in the stomach? Do you want to see a doctor?"

Shen Jiang shook his head, took a deep breath, looked into Kangxi's eyes, and asked, "Your Majesty, if this baby of mine is also a prince, can you let me raise it myself?"

Kangxi was stunned and did not answer immediately. He remained silent for a long time.

Shen Jiang became more and more disappointed as he waited, and smiled bitterly: "Forget it..."

"It's not impossible," Kangxi suddenly said.

Shen Jiang opened his eyes wide, stuttering a little, and asked, "What? What did you just say?"

Kangxi smiled and said, "Although you are of a low birth, your knowledge and literary talent are among the best in the harem. To be honest, even Tong Jia is not as knowledgeable as you."

Shen Jiang hugged him all of a sudden, kissed him hard on the forehead, and said, "Your Majesty, you are so kind!"

System: "Hey? Didn't you just scold me about him, saying that he wanted to organize a peasant uprising and join the anti-Qing and restoration of Ming?"

Shen Jiang: "Shut up!"

Kangxi hugged her and laughed, feeling that the woman in his arms was so cute and straightforward.
