biography

As time goes by, the capital is approaching midsummer again.The weather changed from the scorching sun in previous years, but it was cloudy and rainy, and it was rare to see a few days of sunny days.Inside and outside the capital, the accumulated water formed canals, and the fields were submerged, and there was a tendency of waterlogging.

The drizzle was falling in a misty patter, as if covering the glazed tiles of the Forbidden City with a thin layer of mist.The stone chi beast on the Xumi seat in the main hall spits out a trickle of water, which is quite like "a thousand dragons spitting out water".But at this time, in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the princes and ministers braved the wind and rain, came early, and then rushed out in a file. All of them received the emperor's order and hurried out of the palace to run errands.

Even the fourteenth son, who seldom shows up in the palace, was announced to enter the palace today.The emperor commissioned him to intercept the grain and provide relief to relieve the plight of the people in Gyeonggi.

If this important matter of grain storage is ahead of the past, the emperor will naturally have to decide on it with his brother, Prince Lian alone.But if someone pays more attention, it is not difficult to find that since the beginning of summer in May, Prince Lian has been absent from court due to illness for more than a month.

Those well-informed confidential officials counted the days, watched the words and expressions in front of the imperial court, and carefully figured out the holy will, for fear that there would be another disturbance between the emperor and the prince.

But at the end of January, the civil and military officials saw that the emperor bestowed countless delicacies and valuable medicine stones to Prince Lian's mansion, and even added two princesses to serve in the prince's inner courtyard for the first time.This love and affection and brotherhood really don't seem to have created any suspicions.

Rumors gradually arose among the clan, and several theories emerged after coming and going.It is nothing more than to say that the Eighth Prince has not been in good health since he returned to Beijing.Not even the emperor was in a hurry to stuff people into his younger brother's house, probably because he wanted to keep more incense in Prince Lian's mansion.

When these words reached the emperor's ears for the first time, Yin Zhen choked a mouthful of hot tea in his throat and coughed for a while.The emperor couldn't laugh or cry in his heart, he just felt that this majestic Ninety-Five Supreme Being had such unspeakable things.He could only sigh with emotion, shake his head and give up, temporarily press the account, and ask for it back from the eighth brother later.

On the other side, Yinhu sat trapped in the mansion for several days, and she was even more unhappy.Seeing that the rain had finally weakened a little in the afternoon, he ordered people to change clothes and prepare sedan chairs, and wanted to enter the palace to meet the saint.

Fang Ruo was worrying in her heart, thinking about how to persuade her, when she heard that the master was getting impatient.

"Why isn't the car ready yet?" Yinhu threw off Biyun and strode out of the inner hall, stopped on the porch, and straightened the chaozhu that hadn't been put on.

Fangruo hurriedly followed and helped her up, she was a bit confused: "Master shouldn't be leaving the mansion today, look at the rain outside here, it may be heavy again soon, the water in the city has already covered the feet, what if there is someone Mishap, the master doesn't feel sorry for himself, but he also has to feel sorry for this person in his stomach."

Yinhu's face turned red when she heard this, she lowered her head and stretched her front skirt, no matter how she tried to cover it up, her seven-month-old body definitely couldn't hide it.

Fang Ruo is very good at watching the expression of the master, seeing the prince hesitated for a moment, she stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Eunuch Liu came down from the palace a few days ago and said: The capital rains continuously, and every day, several princes and county kings are rarely allowed to be raised. The heart hall discusses matters. With the princes accompanying the emperor to share worries and solve problems, the master can relax."

Yinhu squinted at the aunt, not understanding what Fangruo meant by her words.He is not afraid to meet the tenth and fourteenth brothers, but presumably he, Prince Lian, who is in charge of the prime minister, will not enter the court for a long time, the emperor will definitely choose Prince Yi to accompany him, so it is inevitable that we will not meet each other.Even Prince Cheng had to wait for the edict to enter the palace these days, and he didn't want to run into any of those young brothers.

Yinhu stood on the porch, watching the rain curtain outside the eaves rise again, getting denser and denser.Even the god of heaven was not beautiful, so he had to stand still for a while, turned around and went back to the house, quite a bit discouraged, and let Fangruo and Biyun take off his heavy court clothes.

The moisture from the rain had only been fumigated for a moment, and most of Yinhu's underwear was soaked with sweat.Seeing that the master was already sweating profusely, Bi Yun pouted her lips in distress, but didn't dare to say anything, so she quickly threw a few warm towels to wipe the master's face and body.

After tidying up, Yinhu dragged his slightly clumsy body on his back on the couch, let Fang Ruo put two soft pillows behind his neck, and just stared straight at the huge bulging belly in front of him, his thoughts were hard to calm down .

This fetus was not tested until after the beginning of spring.After the emperor's fourth brother got the secret performance in the Forbidden City, he went out of the palace at starry night, stuck at the head of Prince Lian's bed, and stared at Yinhu in the middle of the night, for fear that the old eight would become a monster and cause trouble.

Yinhu saw the fourth brother coming in a hurry, with an earnest smile on his face, his attention was not taken away from his stomach for a moment, he felt dissatisfied, and said with a slightly sullen expression: "The fourth brother has been courageous all his life, leaving the palace at night, Don't be afraid of someone hurting you."

Seeing that Yinhu had been stalemate all night and finally opened his mouth, the emperor slightly curled his lips, took off his shoes and boots, lay down beside Yinhu without saying a word, and whispered softly: "You don't want to hurt me."

Seeing that Yinhu pursed her thin lips and stopped talking, Yinzhen even leaned closer, hugged the eighth younger brother's waist and said, "I know you are stubborn, but you are happy in your heart."

Yinhu's stomach was already churning, and his throat was choked by the emperor's words. He immediately sat up, leaned half of his body out of the tent, and vomited all over the floor.

Seeing the emperor on the couch, Fang Ruo retreated to the outside with knowledge and interest, but suddenly saw such a change in the house, no matter how quickly she stepped forward, it was too late.Suddenly, the inner bedroom was in a mess.

The emperor quickly blocked Yinhu's waist with his eyes and hands, so that the man did not fall.With one hand, he rolled up Yinhu's loose black hair, and with the other hand, he ran it down his back.Thinking about my eighth brother's life of bearing children for me, he will have to go through such a lot of troubles every time, it's really hard.The emperor has mixed feelings in his heart, pity and shame, and he cherishes the children under his knees even more.

Yinzhen caressed Yinhu's back, seeing him throwing himself into his arms with red eyes and red ears from vomiting, he couldn't help but said: "I will never let you suffer like this again in the future."

Yinhu leaned back with a distracted expression, and suddenly heard the whisper of the fourth brother, and really wanted to say: Can this time save me the pain?But in the end, he still didn't say anything, he stroked his stomach, thinking of this child of flesh and blood who hadn't met yet, he couldn't bear it.

And the servants underneath have already tidied up the bed swiftly, but they dare not burn incense to remove the smell because they are concerned about the prince's body.In addition, this spring season, the night is cold and windy, and it is impossible to open the windows to change the wind.Only two palace maids stepped forward and fanned the round fan.

The emperor is the son of heaven, so it is rare for him to be in such a situation, so he frowned slightly.In an instant, Yinzhen felt a light in front of him, and Yinhu sat up and left his embrace.I saw Yinhu beckoning Biyunshui to rinse his mouth, and said coldly: "I'm sorry, I'm so disgusting to the fourth brother."

Yinzhen cried out for being wronged secretly, and was at a loss for words for a while.Seeing that Yinhu had already rinsed his mouth and Biyun was putting on a new cup of tea, he reached out and snatched the silk handkerchief from the hand of the palace maid, wiped the corners of the eighth younger brother's mouth, and said with a light smile, "I just didn't expect that the eighth younger brother is like an exile." Such a character, there are times when he is in such a mess."

Yinhu almost sprayed the tea on the emperor's face with a "bah", and saw that the fourth brother's smile was even wider, so he said first: "The ugly time is over, the fourth brother should hurry back to the palace. Now this palace is no better than the inner palace, don't worry about it." Missed the morning meeting."

"I'll stay with you for a while longer, and I'll leave after Yinshi." The emperor wanted to rest, but Yinhu held his arm and prevented him from lying down.

"The fourth brother just said that he would not let his younger brother suffer anymore. The emperor won't leave now, but he will leave after a while. My younger brother can't sleep well." Yinhu saw that the emperor seemed to be thinking, so he took the fourth brother's hand. In his belly, he continued: "Fourth brother can't let go of his younger brother, obviously he can't let go of this little one."

The emperor smiled and said, "You two are one body, so naturally I feel sorry for you." But seeing that Yinhu had already covered his mouth and yawned a few times, knowing that he was sleepy today, he waved for someone to come in and put on his shoes.

After the emperor left, Yinhu had to sleep for the night.

The next morning, the morning meeting ended, the emperor had not yet settled down in the Xinuang Pavilion, when he saw Su Peisheng come in to report that Prince Lian had arrived.

As soon as Yinhu entered the door, he heard the emperor complaining: "Why don't you live in the mansion and rest, what are you doing when you wake up so early in the morning?"

Seeing that the emperor was so anxious, Yinhu didn't realize it. He lowered his head and looked at the loose court clothes. He had made up his mind to go to the court to listen to the government as usual before showing his pregnancy, and he didn't have the slightest intention of having a baby in the palace.

The emperor got up and pulled the man to sit on the soft couch, and then ordered Su Peisheng to replace the tea and snacks that Chuxiu Palace used when raising babies.

Yinzhen was busy inside and out for a while, but he saw Yinhu crooked on the soft couch flipping through the booklets, looking at ease, wishing to detain this person in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.But the emperor knew that this was a big taboo in Yinhu's heart, so he couldn't bring it up.Then he changed his mind and said, "Why don't my eighth brother go with me to live in Penglaizhou for a while?"

Yinhu closed the booklet, glanced at the emperor, and naturally knew what the fourth brother was planning, and simply replied: "My Prince Lian's eldest son will naturally be born in the mansion."

In the past, the eighth younger brother didn't like to hear what the emperor said about adding a son, but now he is so forthright, and the emperor naturally appreciates it, so he discussed kindly: "The eighth younger brother loves the son, and I am very relieved. It's just that in the palace It doesn't make sense to have an extra baby out of thin air. I think it's better to give birth to the prince in the name of the middle palace, and then I will adopt him to the mansion, which is more appropriate."

"No way!" Yinhu put down the teacup he had just picked up in his hand, and said rather dissatisfied: "Fourth brother don't mention the queen in the palace anymore, the inner courtyard of my courtiers is empty, I just ask the fourth brother of the emperor to carry two princesses into the mansion, a few months After that, it will be a matter of course."

"Then how can I do it?" The emperor suddenly felt a block in his heart, let alone adding a woman to the old eighth courtyard, no matter how hard he thought, he just said that if Yinhu's method was followed, wouldn't this son have no father-son name with the emperor? separated.

Yinhu also lost his face suddenly, and muttered: "Although no one inside and outside the court dares to speak out, no one knows the strangeness of my brother's return. The emperor's Gan Gang is arbitrary, and now naturally there is no wave, but I don't know the history of Qianqiu. A hundred years later, what kind of argument will it be?"

The emperor saw that Yinhu's voice was getting louder and louder, so he had to sit beside him and comforted him: "You and I have stolen for a lifetime, so why do you care about those hard work."

Yinhu let the emperor embrace him, and looked up, not hiding the sadness in his eyes, but he said helplessly: "The fourth brother has been the emperor for two generations, and he is sitting on the world, so he doesn't want to suffer this for his younger brother." A little bit wronged?"

The emperor couldn't see Yinhu's appearance the most now, so he had no choice but to agree, and added a sentence at the end: "When the son is born, there is no need to keep those two princesses."

Yinhu gave the emperor a hard look, and said with a smile: "Fourth brother is so boring, and the inner courtyard is lonely, so it's not good to add someone to talk?" Could it be that the emperor was jealous of him doing something incompetent?

"No, you can only talk to me about yourself." The emperor felt that he had made a huge concession, and he definitely couldn't open this hole for Lao Ba.

In this way, Prince Lian used lavish court clothes to cover up his pregnancy, and it was difficult to cover up until May, so he had to say that he was sick and quit the court.

And Gege, who was chosen by the two emperors to enter the mansion, was confined in a corner of the inner courtyard, and he had never even seen the face of the prince.

The whole month of rain in midsummer completely disrupted the emperor's plan to go out of the palace to see the prince every few days. When he got busy, Yinzhen hadn't seen his eighth younger brother for more than ten days.

After the ministers retreated and the Xinuang Pavilion was quiet for a while, Su Peisheng led Liu Yungui, the eunuch in charge of Prince Lian's residence, in.

In this wet and greasy afternoon, the heat was unbearably hot, and the emperor was in a bitter summer, so he tugged at his collar involuntarily.Seeing that the servants from the prince's mansion finally arrived, he couldn't wait to ask: "Is the prince's health better? Can you let the doctor Liu see it on time? Are you more comfortable eating and sleeping?"

Liu Yungui knelt down and saluted, and politely greeted the emperor.

In the past in Chuxiu Palace, Liu Yungui worked as an errand on the outer corridor of the dormitory, and seldom waited on the emperor.But now the master is out of the palace to build a mansion, and the aunts and maidservants have trouble walking, so he enters the palace to report to the emperor about the prince's daily life, sitting and sleeping.

The emperor asked these questions every day, but he cared every day and never neglected.Naturally, Liu Yungui also fulfilled his duties, describing how many hours the prince slept every day, whether there was any harm in his mouth, how to eat, drink and medicine, and described everything one by one.

What's more, the master and son have to give a few words every day, nothing more than greeting the emperor's health, caring about the situation of the flood in the capital, and finally urging the emperor not to sleep and forget food because of state affairs.

Although these words sounded not much different from day to day, the emperor felt extremely warm in his heart when he heard them.Thinking that Yinhu has a big belly and is about to give birth, and she is most exhausted in this scorching summer season, so it must be difficult.But he still misses me every day, with such deep love, it is hard to find a thousand gold.

The emperor and the prince were separated from each other, and another ten days passed in a flash.The rainy season was coming to an end, and the Forbidden City finally ushered in the summer sun. The emperor felt refreshed, and went to Prince Lian's mansion in micro-clothes that day.

As soon as he entered the inner courtyard, he saw Hongmin toddling in the courtyard, Fang Ruo was afraid of the wetness on the ground, and stretched out his hands to protect the left and right, while Yinhu was sitting on a bench basking in the sun.

"It's a big sun, don't be afraid of the heat." The emperor said to Yinhu, while holding Hongmin in his arms. He hadn't seen the little princess for more than a month, and Yinzhen was really thinking about it.

"It's a rare sunny day, so I need to bask in the sun." Yinhu squinted his eyes slightly and adjusted his lower body shape. Now his body is heavy, and it is extremely difficult for him to sit in one position for a long time. Even when he goes to bed, he has to change his lying position many times.

"I haven't seen you for a few days, but you don't miss me." The emperor teased Hong Min with his arms in his arms, and asked with a smile, "Min'er, do you miss Huang Ama?"

"Think." The little princess said in a sweet tone, and then she giggled.

Only then did Yinhu open his eyes, looked at the emperor and his father, and said frankly: "I don't miss the emperor, and I will ask Eunuch Liu to pass on messages every day."

"I think those words are repeated over and over again, and they are nothing more than those. You are about to punish Liu Yungui for his crime of deceiving the emperor, so you really ordered it?" The emperor then put Hongmin in the nurse's hand, and sat down beside Yinhu, He reached out and touched the Eighth Brother's stomach which was already as small as a hill.

"Hmph." Yinhu snorted softly, but didn't answer, let the emperor caress her body, like a cat warming up, narrowed her eyes again, and regained her composure.

I haven't seen him for more than a month, and the eighth brother's stomach has grown a lot. Thinking that this man didn't sleep well at night, knowing that it is rare for him to squint for a while at this moment, he didn't care about it.

This summer is getting hotter and hotter day by day, with the concern of the Prince's Mansion, the Emperor will naturally not go to the Old Summer Palace alone.Every now and then, I would go to Prince Lian's mansion to sit for an hour, and hurried back to the palace when the lights were on.In a blink of an eye, it was finally the end of summer, and it was the day when Yinhu was due to give birth.

The emperor went to the mansion every day to guard, but Yinhu's stomach did not move for a long time.Yinhu had no choice but to take a walk in the inner courtyard according to the method suggested by Liu Yuduo, and finally gave birth after six days.

It really complied with the folk slang, the first time was born and the second time was acquainted, and the third child was even smoother.Within two hours, the baby was heard croaking powerfully.

When the royal palace adds children, the emperor stops working for a day.The civil and military officials only heard that the birth in Prince Lian's mansion was dangerous. The concubine Ge Ge, who was supposed to be a precious mother, died, but the little elder brother who was born was healthy and lively.Not only the prince loves her, but even the emperor is extremely happy.

Within a few days, the emperor wrote in his own hand and named "Hongshi" to the elder brother of the palace. The word "Yes" is an ancient word for "Xia", implying the hardships of breeding in midsummer and the preciousness of gains.
