Chapter 31

(Note: The last chapter mentioned that the third brother asked the brothers in Yongzheng to change their names. From this chapter, except for the fourth brother, everyone else’s "Yin" has been changed to "Yun". The name of the old fourteen drops from "Yin" Zhen" to "Yunyu")

On the eleventh day of the first month of the first year of Yongzheng, Prince Zhuang Boguoduo passed away.Bo Guoduo was the son of Shuosai and the grandson of Emperor Taizong, but he had no heir after death.In the meaning of keeping the family close to each other, Yongzheng chose his sixteenth brother Yunlu to inherit the title of Prince Zhuang.I didn't expect such a reasonable thing to make people pick a problem.

When I went to the Yonghe Palace to pay my respects in February, I ran into the Empress Dowager who was "cold and unwell." For a while, Yongzheng couldn't figure out what his mother was doing this time, so he had to sit aside and ask An to sit down.

"Your majesty has been working hard, so there is no need to come to pay his respects every day."

"What's the queen mother saying? My son came to greet Er Nie, that's what should be done."

"I see that the emperor has been busy these two days, and there are many things going on inside and outside the palace." The queen mother forced a smile, and replied: "Everything is fine here."

Yongzheng responded in vain, covered his sleeves and pressed on his waist while changing his posture, and said with concern still: "I heard from the servants that Er Nie doesn't work on her body, why don't you call the imperial doctor to have a look?"

"No need, what could be wrong with me? It's just that I'm very idle and empty-hearted," the queen mother shook her head, looked at him and sighed, and then opened her mouth in embarrassment: "A few days ago, the few people in your fourteenth brother's family He also came in and talked with me a few times, but these two days, he was always absent-minded, and I didn't feel like watching, so I sent them all back."

When Yongzheng heard this, he knew that she had something to say next, and it was because of the old Fourteen, who was not doing well, and was quite disheartened in his heart, so he let out a leisurely "um" and didn't respond.

Seeing him like this, the queen mother didn't want to make fun of him anymore, but thinking of her youngest son, she couldn't help but coughed, pushed away the tea that Yongzheng handed over, and said softly: "It is reasonable to say that you are the emperor, and our Qing Dynasty also There has been a law for a long time, and the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. I should not say some things. But the old fourteen is your brother after all, why do you treat him like this?"

"My son doesn't understand what the Queen Mother said."

"It's not that you don't understand, it's that you don't want to understand..." The Queen Mother panted for a while, and then raised her voice against her heart: "The old thirteen didn't even seal a shell when you, Ama, you continue He was made a prince the next day. You kissed him since you were young, and I know that the old thirteen is still a little older than Yunyu. But what is this now? Send it out, I will be responsible for this one today, and that one tomorrow. But how old is old sixteen? He has no merit at all, but you gave him the title of Prince Zhuang. From now on, if old fourteen wants to see him, he has to Salute him and say hello, what do you tell him to think in his heart, and how can he stand on his own outside?"

"The old sixteen is kind and gentle, and he does things properly. It's not too much to win this title..."

Yongzheng didn't want to get entangled, so he retorted lukewarmly.Frowning, he stood up and wanted to leave, but in a blink of an eye, he saw tears on the back of the mother, covering her face and weeping, her expression was the same as that day in front of Kangxi Palace.And the events of these days seem to be in front of my eyes, and finally I couldn't help but overturned the lid of the tea bowl: "I just let Yunlu take over the title of prince, the queen mother is afraid that the old fourteen will sweep her face, and she feels wronged. That day in the Imperial Father Zi Palace, why didn’t I expect that the old fourteen’s appearanceless behavior was in front of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and the eighth and the ninth, who broke my heart and swept away the dignity of the court?!”

"Emperor...you..."

"The Empress Dowager refused to accept the congratulations back then, and now she refuses to move the palace. Thinking about it, I feel that I am incompetent and unworthy to be a king. It would be best to give this seat to the old fourteen," Yongzheng said more and more anxiously, until now The son couldn't stop, he thumped the table and said: "Since the Empress Dowager is full of love and kindness only for Yunti, I don't dare to call myself a son anymore, so as not to embarrass you. Come, come!"

Su Peisheng had heard the voices inside rising from the outside, throwing bowls and cups for a long time.But Yongzheng didn't shout, and he didn't dare to go in to make trouble. While sending people to look for Yunxiang in the valet room of the study room, he listened intently to the movement inside, sweating all over his body in the winter.

Hearing that Yongzheng was in a hurry calling for someone, he dared not make a mistake, so he immediately opened the curtain and went in to greet him.I saw Yongzheng leaning on the armrest of the chair with one hand, his face alternately white and red, and he had issued an order: "The Empress Dowager is ill. In the past, there will be no orders or summons from me. No one is allowed to come in to disturb the Empress Dowager's rest."

Su Peisheng was horrified, he thought that the master didn't seem to care about this matter a few days ago, but today, I don't know what the Queen Mother said, but it has come to this point again.

But Yongzheng didn't care what he was thinking, he walked away after he finished speaking, and after walking a few steps, he felt pain in his abdomen, which made him want to bend down.He could only force his hiss to pass on Liu Shengfang.

Yunxiang wasn't on duty that day, he was discussing with Zhang Tingyu and Long Kedo in the upper study to deal with the political affairs, and he was hesitating whether to turn around and go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation because he was afraid of infecting Yongzheng because of the cold at night , but took the message sent by Su Peisheng and hurried to the direction of Yonghe Palace.

The palace eunuchs along the way saw him in a hurry and didn't know what happened, but they also knew that he was the emperor's most valued and trusted prince, and he was free to walk in the palace.Therefore, everyone just saluted and greeted them, and did not dare to stop them.

Yunxiang walked in a hurry, seeing Su Peisheng helping Yongzheng come over.Surprised, he also forgot to greet Yongzheng, and only took over to help Yongzheng, and asked anxiously, "What's going on? Call Liu Shengfang."

"Already... called..." Yongzheng replied panting, seeing that it was him, he let go of his strength, leaned on him, and let him help him back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Ask me well, why did you ask like this again? What is it for?" Yunxiang was anxious, seeing Yongzheng's pale lips and cold sweat on his forehead, he was also very anxious, glaring at Su Pei and said angrily : "How do you serve? There is no one who can do anything!"

"It's not bad for them..." Yongzheng felt the pain in his abdomen eased, took a breath and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, there's nothing wrong now."

Yun Xiang was so angry that he almost wanted to smash things. Seeing that he was covering his belly with one hand, he felt that the other hand was wet and cold. He secretly checked his pulse, and was even more anxious. After finally waiting for Liu Shengfang to arrive, he hurriedly pulled Follow him for diagnosis and treatment.

"Your Majesty, King Yi...this, this slave..."

Yongzheng originally thought that the slight pain in the abdomen was a sign of improvement, but he didn't expect that after a while, the pain in his abdomen began to sink down.I also knew in my heart that the situation was not as good as I thought, so I just took a breath, gritted my teeth and said, "Tell me."

"Your Majesty, forgive me... Your Majesty is overly sorrowful about the matter of Emperor Sheng Zuren, and you have hurt your vitality first. These days... and you are busy with general affairs, and your fetal breath is too weak right now. I am afraid, I am afraid that it will be difficult to protect."

"Can you say that again."

Yongzheng's voice turned cold instantly, and it made people tremble. Yunxiang sat beside him and shook his hand, but couldn't help but tighten it again and again.

Being stared at by the two of them, Liu Shengfang wished she had died seven or eight times, but she still had to pull herself together and tremblingly said: "I deserve death for my crimes, I am incompetent..."

"If you are incompetent, find someone who is capable. If you can't keep it, you can't keep it...you will die for him!"

Yongzheng's breath was already in chaos, and he couldn't stop panting for a while. Yunxiang heard him panting hoarsely, and for a while, he didn't care about the presence of outsiders, and comforted him repeatedly, while comforting: "Fourth brother, don't worry... you First things first..."

"Yinxiang!"

"Yes, I'm here." Yunxiang hugged him a little tighter, and motioned to Liu Shengfang: "You take a break first, I'll have a few words with Liu Shengfang."

"Just, just say it here." Although Yongzheng was anxious, he was not easy to be fooled, and grabbed his hand, his eyes were full of persistence: "You say it."

Yun Xiang couldn't resist him, so he could only kowtow to Liu Shengfang, who was kneeling on the side to plead guilty: "Tell me honestly, how is the child? What's the condition of the emperor's body?"

"Yes... His Highness is also well-versed in medicine. It should be seen that this pregnancy... was a little unstable. It couldn't bear the great joy and sorrow, and worked hard, but it happened to meet Emperor Sheng Zuren again. Collapsed, the emperor was greatly troubled by the great sorrow, it really shouldn't be saved anymore..."

"I don't ask you if you should, but if you can." Yongzheng barely listened to him, and immediately understood the meaning of it, and said in a cold voice, "Tell me the truth."

Yun Xiang couldn't stop her in time, so Liu Shengfang nodded her head and admitted, persuading her: "The emperor's heart is strained, if he wants to save this child, some symptoms may become chronic diseases, I should not be careless in asking the emperor... ..."

Yongzheng seemed to be relieved, rubbing his palms on his slightly protruding abdomen for a moment, nodded and said: "It's just some cough and asthma, it's not a big deal, it's worth it if it can exchange his life."

"Fourth brother, if this matter can't be done, I won't agree." Yun Xiang was silent for a moment, then lowered his eyes: "I'd better listen to Liu Shengfang."

Yong blanked his face, but refused to answer his words, stretched out his hand to push him away, and said to Liu Shengfang: "Go and prescribe the medicine, I will rest now."

Liu Shengfang knew the reason for the child in Yongzheng's womb, seeing Yunxiang couldn't persuade her, so she had to be ordered to prescribe medicine.Naturally, Su Peisheng also went out to get the medicine.Yongzheng sat for a while, his waist was already sore and painful, and his stomach was a dull pain that didn't stop for a moment. He tried to lie down with his hands on his hands, but he couldn't use any strength in his whole body, and he couldn't move his body twice in a row.

Yun Xiang couldn't see it, and felt pain and anxiety in his heart, he finally stepped forward to help him lie down, his eyes couldn't help turning red, he choked up and said: "Fourth brother, listen to me, can't you?"
