Looking at the two children in the cradle, Concubine Hua couldn't help but think of her own child whose hands and feet were already formed but was killed by a bowl of abortion medicine given by that bitch Qi Yuebin.

She just felt so heartbroken that she couldn't breathe, and her eyes were sore and red. She had to hold back her tears.

The other concubines followed closely behind: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations, Imperial Concubine, on the birth of twin sons."

Yongzheng was delighted to have twins, a boy and a girl. He said immediately: "Your Highness has contributed greatly to my birth of my sons. I will confer you the title of Imperial Highness. The ceremony of conferring the title will be held after the full-month banquet for the eighth prince and the ninth princess, and she will be in charge of the power of the six palaces."

Yongzheng also took into consideration that the imperial concubine's enthronement was very complicated, and the full-moon banquet happened to be the day she left confinement. At that time, she had just left confinement, and it was most appropriate for her to accept the imperial concubine's enthronement.

When the concubines heard that the emperor was going to appoint the noble concubine as the Imperial Noble Consort and exercise the power to manage the six palaces, they were envious and jealous, but also convinced in their hearts.

Now Ulanara Yixiu has six princes and one princess, and the offspring she will give birth to are qualified enough to sit on the position of Imperial Noble Consort.

But seeing how happy the emperor was looking at the two children, she couldn't help feeling a little sad.

The queen was extremely dissatisfied and her expression became extremely ugly.

The position of Imperial Noble Consort is given to the emperor when there is no queen in the harem and the emperor does not want to appoint a queen, so he appoints the Imperial Noble Consort to take charge of the power of the six palaces. Now she is still fine, but the emperor wants to appoint that bitch Yixiu as Imperial Noble Consort. Has he ever considered her feelings?

The concubines said congratulations, but there were so many people and the noise was so loud that the sleeping little prince and princess immediately started crying.

Yongzheng frowned and said unhappily: "Keep your voice down, you are disturbing the prince and princess."

The concubines quickly fell silent, feeling very uncomfortable.

Yongzheng glanced at Qi Changzai who was sitting across from him, "You're the noisiest person here."

Qi Changzai was the only concubine who was named by the emperor. She had only served him a few times in bed. She immediately knelt on the ground in panic and kowtowed to apologize: "Your Majesty, please calm down. It was I who disturbed the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Princess, not you."

"Okay, get up." Yongzheng waved his hand impatiently to signal her to stop making noise. Seeing that the two maids had coaxed the Eighth Prince and the Ninth Princess, he glanced around.

"The Imperial Concubine has just given birth and is weak and needs to rest. Everyone should return to their respective palaces."

Yongzheng was still concerned that Yixiu needed more rest after giving birth.

She had already missed the best time to have a baby, and when she saw a pair of boy-and-girl twins, she wanted to look at them a little longer. Unexpectedly, the emperor ignored their past friendship and drove her away.

Some concubines who had no children and had just entered the palace originally wanted to take advantage of the auspiciousness of the dragon and phoenix, and wanted to lead the emperor to their palaces in the hope of getting pregnant tonight. However, the emperor got angry and chased them away just because the twins cried a few times. The concubines were worried that the emperor's anger would affect them.

"I will take my leave first."

After all the concubines left, Chengqian Palace became much quieter.

Zhen Huan is sick, and Shen Meizhuang is with An Lingrong.

An Lingrong also made sure that there was no one around before she dared to speak in a low voice to Shen Meizhuang.

An Lingrong: "Sister, the Imperial Noble Consort's Chengqian Palace is even more luxurious than the Empress' Jingren Palace."

Although I have never been inside the Chengqian Palace, I can tell from the golden phoenix carved on the rock of the Chengqian Palace that the luxury of the Chengqian Palace is unmatched by the Jingren Palace.

"I heard that Concubine Hua's Yikun Palace is also extremely luxurious. I wonder which one is more noble and magnificent, the Imperial Noble Concubine's Chengqian Palace or Concubine Hua's Yikun Palace."

Shen Meizhuang: "Of course it is Chengqian Palace. Chengqian Palace has always been inhabited by the Imperial Noble Consort and the concubines most favored by the Emperor."

She was somewhat envious of the Imperial Concubine, oh no, now she was the Royal Concubine, and she envied the good fortune of the Royal Concubine.

Guaerjia Wenyuan frowned irritably and had a cold face, which made Jingtai dare not get too close to her on the road.

The young lady had a bad temper. Whenever she was unhappy, she would take it out on the palace servants who served her.

As soon as Guaerjia Wenyuan reached the rockery, she shouted angrily: "Isn't it just because the imperial concubine gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl, that she deserves to be promoted to the imperial concubine?"

The Eighth Prince and the Ninth Princess only cried a few times just now, but the Emperor was so distressed and worried about the two children that he scolded her in front of so many concubines for two newborn children.

Recalling the contemptuous looks that Concubine Hua and the other concubines had given her, a flash of hostility appeared in Guaerjia Wenyuan's eyes, and she also began to resent Concubine Ulanara Yixiu, whom she had not seen since her pregnancy and childbirth.

Jingtai: "My lady, please be careful with your words. Don't say these things in the inner courtyard of the palace from now on."

The Imperial Noble Consort gave birth to more than just a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. She gave birth to six princes and a princess. Even a little maid who had just served the young master was not qualified to arrange the relationship between the Imperial Noble Consort and several young masters.

Guaerjia Wenyuan was about to reprimand Jingtai. Jingtai would never give her a chance and whispered, "My lady, the walls have ears. Concubine Xin is right behind us."

Guaerjia Wenyuan turned around and saw Concubine Xin not far away. Her heart skipped a beat: "Jingtai, what should I do? She must not have heard what I just said, right?"

Jingtai: "It's not far away, Concubine Xin should have heard it."

Guarjia Wenyuan's delicate face fell, "What should I do? If she reports me to the Imperial Concubine, she will definitely cause trouble for me."

Jingtai: "My lady, don't panic. Words are not enough. Noble Lady Xin is going to complain, and the Imperial Noble Consort has to believe her. By the way, my lady, the Imperial Noble Consort has been named Imperial Noble Consort by the Emperor today. Imperial Noble Consort is the correct title. Don't call her the wrong name again."

Guarjia Wenyuan: "I understand. Jingtai, let's go quickly."

Supported by Jingtai, the master and servant walked very quickly.

Jingtai: "My lady, you may have forgotten what happened to Concubine Xia. Concubine Xia was too outspoken. She only offended Concubine Hua with words, and was punished by Concubine Hua. This palace is not like the Guarjia mansion. You need to be careful in every aspect. If you offend the Imperial Concubine because of this..."

Jingtai deliberately did not say the rest of the words. Up to this point, it was enough to scare the young lady from ever speaking disrespectfully to the Imperial Concubine casually in the future.

When Jingtai mentioned the fate of Concubine Xia, Guwalja Wenyuan became even more panicked.

She had never seen the Imperial Concubine, and didn't know what kind of person she was. If what she had just said reached the Imperial Concubine's ears, she would treat her like Concubine Hua treated Concubine Xia. Just thinking about it made her break out in a cold sweat.

Cheng Qiangong

The room where Yixiu had just given birth had been cleaned by the palace servants. Unlike the rooms where other concubines had given birth, the room where she had just given birth did not have a strong smell of blood and needed to be cleaned many times to avoid the smell of blood.

Yongzheng visited Yixiu, who was sleeping with a pale face. He thought she was just weak after giving birth.

"Imperial Physician, how is the Imperial Concubine's health?"

The imperial physician said: "Your Majesty is deficient in Qi and blood, and your pulse is weak and thready. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to conceive a heir in the future."

Yongzheng: "You mean, my Imperial Consort can no longer bear children for me?"

The imperial physician said, "Your Majesty has given birth to many children, and her health is seriously depleted. When you gave birth to quadruplets in Prince Yong's mansion, it was not appropriate for you to continue having children. This pregnancy was also saved by your Majesty with your own blood and essence, supplemented by tonics, and great effort."

The imperial physician let the sweat drip down his forehead and secretly raised his eyes to look at the emperor, only to see that the emperor looked unhappy.

Thinking of what the Empress had said, the imperial physician gritted his teeth and continued, "Given the Empress's current physical condition, it is not impossible for her to get pregnant again if she takes good care of herself in the future. However, giving birth to twins will harm her body, so I'm afraid she won't be able to have sex again in the future."

Yongzheng was relieved when he learned from the imperial physician that Yixiu could no longer have children. He had a total of eight princes, six of whom were born to Yixiu, including Honghui, who had already entered the court and was outstanding in all aspects.

Hongyao and a few others also showed that they are smarter than other children and excellent in all aspects.

He has been training Honghui as his successor. Having experienced the battle among nine sons for the throne, he does not want his heir to suffer as much as he did.

If she gets pregnant again, even if Yixiu is the only one in the harem who can give birth to a smart and clever prince for him, he will consider giving her a portion of Huan Yixiang as well.

Yongzheng couldn't help feeling a little sorry that Yixiu could no longer sleep with him. Among so many women in his harem, only her body was the most compatible with his.

After staying for a while and spending some time with the children, Yongzheng went to the Yangxin Palace to continue reviewing the memorials that he had not finished reviewing.

It was already late when Yongzheng finished dealing with government affairs. He wrote down the names of his eighth son and ninth daughter on rice paper.

The eighth prince Hongzhao was given the title of Jing and made king.

The word "Jing" means "sunlight, scenery, brightness, brightness, and auspiciousness."

The only person who was crowned king at birth in the Qing Dynasty was Hong Zhao.

The ninth princess, Jingya, was given the title Fu'an.

Fu'an means 'auspiciousness, smooth sailing, wealth, longevity, tranquility, good fortune, happiness and comfort.'

Yongzheng stamped the imperial edict with the jade seal and rolled it up.

"Su Peisheng."

Su Peisheng stepped forward and took the imperial edict: "Your Majesty, I will go to Chengqian Palace to announce the edict. The Imperial Concubine will definitely be happy."

Yongzheng: "No hurry, the Imperial Concubine has just given birth, let her have a good night's rest, you can go and announce the decree tomorrow."

Su Peisheng: "Yes, it must be because the Emperor loves the Imperial Concubine."

On the second day, Yixiu received the imperial edict from Yongzheng to confer titles on the two children. Yongzheng gave the eighth prince the name Hongzhao, the title Jing, and also conferred him the title of king.

The ninth princess was given the name Jingya and the title Princess Fu'an.

After paying respects, everyone left and only Concubine Qi remained in the hall.

Queen: "Concubine Qi, what else do you want?"

Concubine Qi: "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine's twins are so honored. The eighth prince and ninth princess were only born two days ago, and the Emperor gave them titles, making them kings and princesses. Your Majesty, please look at my Hongshi, who has not yet been made a king."

Thinking of her second prince Hongshi, he had never been crowned a king, not even a title, and was often scolded by the emperor. Why was a child who hadn't even grown all his teeth crowned a king and given a title? Just thinking about it made her angry.

Even though the queen was used to pretending to be kind and generous in front of others, she was so jealous when she heard the news about Yixiu's twins that she could no longer pretend. She laughed dryly and said, "The emperor likes the imperial concubine, so he naturally values ​​the twins she gave birth to."

"Concubine Qi, the emperor is the ruler of a country. He can make any prince the king he wants. The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. The emperor's decision is not something that I, the queen, can influence."

It’s so hateful. Why can’t I give birth to a prince?

Originally, the queen wanted to push the well-trained palace maids out to sleep with her, preferably if they got pregnant at once, and then she could manipulate the birth to kill the mother and keep the child, so that she could raise the child as her own son.

Unfortunately, the Emperor only comes to Jingren Palace on the first and fifteenth day of every lunar month, and he has never found an opportunity to send the trained palace maids out to sleep with him.

Concubine Qi knelt on the ground with a plop: "If the emperor doesn't see Hongshi, I'm afraid he will forget about this prince Hongshi. Empress, you are the empress, the mother of Hongshi. I beg you, can you just mention Hongshi in front of the emperor?"

The Emperor allowed Prince Jin to follow him and teach him personally. Prince Jin (Honghui)

The emperor would often test the third prince, the fourth prince, the fifth prince, the sixth prince, and even the seventh prince Hongzhou. However, he only tested Hongshi a few times, and scolded him every time. He never summoned Hongshi again, as if he had forgotten about him.

The Queen said: "You are Hongshi's biological mother. Why don't you go, but ask me to go instead? What's the logic behind this?"

She was not liked by the Emperor to begin with. If she mentioned that idiot Hongshi in front of the Emperor, being scolded would be a minor matter. But if the Emperor accused her of meddling in government affairs, her position as Empress would be over.

After being out of favor for so long, the queen has finally figured it out. Now she no longer dreams of the emperor's unrealistic favor, but only wants to adopt a prince and become the queen mother.

Concubine Qi: "Your Majesty has not come to my Changchun Palace for a long time. If Your Majesty doesn't come, how can I tell Your Majesty about Hongshi?"

"Then wait until the emperor wants to see you, and then you can mention it to him." The queen said impatiently.
