Returning the Pearl and the Reborn Emperor

The time in the palace flies quickly, the cold winter months, and soon it will be the time of the Chinese New Year. There are a lot of things to do during the Chinese New Year in the palace. Fortunately, there are rules to follow. Qing Ting is used to it, and this year she is pregnant. She can't be made to work hard, so this New Year's Eve, she has relaxed a lot.

It is rare for Yongxing and Yongxing not to study, so they come to Qing Ting to play around. Qing Ting gave Yongxing a set of Yanchuan Stone Liquid Hui ink, Fang Xingrui inkstone, and rewarded him for writing better and better handwriting, and helped Yongxing. When he practiced calligraphy, Yong Xing's handwriting was not as good as Yong Xing's, and Yong Xing gave him many pertinent suggestions.However, the characters of the two children have gradually become stronger, and the differences in how they behave in the world have gradually become apparent. The only thing that has not changed is that they are still as good as their mother and brother.

The two brothers found out that there were more red envelopes for Chinese New Year this year than last year, so they were relieved, smiling, and Qing Ting sent them to find other brothers and sisters to play with.

The Chinese New Year in the palace is much more lively than outside, and it lasts for a long time. Apart from watching the lively drama, there are many things to do. On the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the seal of the Qing Dynasty is held, and the stove is sacrificed at the same time. From the emperor to the civil and military officials, it can be said that everyone is looking forward to this. In life, the emperor rarely had a few days of leisure in a year, and it was the time of the new year, the smile on his face was much more than before, and his attitude was much softer.

The emperor has developed a lot of chess in the past few days, but he played a few games with Hongzhou and others, and felt that their intention to let the chess is too heavy, and the harem's chess skills are too few, the queen is inconvenient to sit for a long time. Ziwei and the others played chess with the emperor.

Ziwei had a clever mind, and the emperor saw that she also intended to give up chess, but the emperor was very good at chess, and it was no problem to win her. Qing'er was similar to Ziwei. Every time the emperor asked her to let her play a few pieces, and finally Qing'er lost a few more pieces.

Lan Xin looked at the chessboard, thoughtfully, and said: "Emperor Niang once said that to play chess, one needs to be calm, stable as Mount Tai, and nothing should be surprised. It is not Huang Ama who can take care of both."

The emperor placed the sunspots and said: "Don't think that if you say good things, I will let you. Ziwei and Qing'er have become my defeats. Let me see how many you can lose. If you want to talk about your queen mother, I have always wanted It's a pity to win me, but I have never been able to win half of me."

Qing Ting fiddled with the little shoes and hats made by Nanny Rong and the baby's clothes, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, how many children have you won, so I am ashamed to say. In terms of chess skills, the three of them together are better than the baby." But half of you, rather than playing chess with you, it is better to say that you guide them a little bit."

"Huang Ama, you just taught your daughter a trick or two. The twelfth one has learned a few moves from you, and now the eleventh one can't beat him."

"Not only Xiao Eleven, but Xiao Ba is not his opponent either. It's rare for you Huang Ama to have a few days of free time. Don't make trouble for your Huang Ama. You rely on your own comprehension to play chess. You are not hot enough. Your Majesty, I found the satin you mentioned last time, it's still the emperor's note

Sex is good, if you don't tell me, I've forgotten about it. "

The emperor put down the chess pieces and sighed: "This is the problem of luxury in the palace. Good things are not taken seriously, just talk about how hard the people outside are, and then turn around and pick and choose about food and clothing."

When the emperor said something, Qing Ting responded. At the end, she asked the emperor what to do with the satin.

"You are a woman and you don't know how to deal with it. You can figure it out for yourself and ask me what to do."

"I want the people below to add cotton wool and make some new clothes for the maids. I'm afraid the emperor will say that I'm a waste, and it's not good to just do it for the maids of Kunning Palace."

"You have always been frugal, and the maids under you are also strictly controlled by you. This time, it will be a reward. Anyway, it is your own satin. If other concubines have objections, let them use their private houses to make clothes for their maids."

"That's fine, Your Majesty, I'll figure it out, and I'll take some from my private room to make clothes for the maids in the Palace of Mental Cultivation, or just let me do it as a favor."

"Excuse me, if I hadn't reminded you, you wouldn't even be able to remember things if they were bad, and now you want to be a favor, whatever, it's up to you. By the way, if you feel bored, let your natal family come into the palace to accompany you more , It just so happens that your natal family has a happy event." The emperor said that it was the matter of the empress's natal family adding a child, and it was a direct son and grandson.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. It's rare that you still remember something about my natal family." In the past few years, the Nala family finally felt proud. People import and continue the incense lamps, and naturally everyone in the whole house is overjoyed.

The emperor smiled and said: "Your three nephews, each of them has to be an Ama. It's a good thing, it's best for each of them to be a man at one stroke, and the families of those important officials in the court, it's best for them to be prosperous."

After hearing this, Qing Ting felt that there were other meanings in it, but she still couldn't guess what the emperor really meant.

Lan Xin listened to their conversation, and said to herself: Whoever said that being a royal couple is not easy, even if it is an ordinary family, the couple can negotiate like this.

"Lan'er. Qing'er, Ziwei, there is also a show at the princess's house these few days. You are ready to visit the princess's place and the fifth uncle's. Before and after the Chinese New Year, the three of you will also visit everywhere. Girl, it’s rare to go out, but be careful not to be seen by messy people.”

Being able to go out, the eyes of the three girls are shining. Going out to watch a theater is also going out. You can go out so many times a year, so you must grasp it.

"If you want to prepare any congratulatory gifts, tell your mother-in-law, you don't have much on hand." The emperor urged.

Qing Ting was dissatisfied, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, you are right

Little Eleven and Little Twelve said that when you go to play at the house of your uncle, uncle, and brother, you must prepare gifts, and tell me if you need anything. Now that your daughter wants to prepare gifts, you should ask me for them. The whole day is in the hands of these children. "

"You are still reluctant to be a mother, don't worry, I will make it up for you, enough for you to reward people during the New Year."

Nanny Rong was waiting on the sidelines, seeing their husband and wife were harmonious and their children were filial, she couldn't help feeling relieved, the relationship between the emperor and the empress became better and better, without those people, their fortunes in Kunning Palace would be improved, and the concubines in the harem would also be fine. One can get along naturally and harmoniously like an emperor and a queen.

Qing Ting is also in a good mood. Apart from a few small episodes, this Chinese New Year is still perfect.

In the first episode, there is a noble person in the harem who is pregnant. Qing Ting caresses her belly, gives the reward with a smile, and tells Concubine Ying to take good care of her.

Concubine Ying smiled very happily, and agreed with a smile on her face. After returning home, she was really kind to this nobleman, and said more than once that she hoped that she would add a little brother to the emperor.

Behind her back, Qing Ting really wanted to punch that shy but proud face.

Concubine Ying wanted to throw her to the ground and stomp her violently.Proud, I make you proud, I let you get pregnant at this time, even the New Year is not safe for people.

The second episode, I only found out about it years later, and Nanny Rong didn't allow anyone to tell her about it.When Nanny Rong heard it, she was so angry that she was obviously disgusting.

Someone in the Leng Palace almost hanged himself, but luckily it was discovered that he was unsuccessful. The eunuchs in the Leng Palace broke out in a cold sweat. The empress is kind, and every year, she would give extra red envelopes to the servants in the Leng Palace and other secluded and cold places. It is a pity that they don’t get good things on weekdays. There was no income from the errands, and an accident almost happened this year, and the red envelope was almost ruined.

Nanny Rong scolded at that time: "It's the New Year's Eve, it's a natural evil star to cause such a thing, and it deliberately makes people suffer. Who has heard of such a bad thing happening during the New Year's Eve. You all, really You can’t scold me, it’s how you do things, is it eyeballs or two holes, you can’t see people.” After scolding the manager, he scolded the troublemaker, “You can’t do without beating, a natural vixen, never let people live However, I let you escape last time, not to mention being honest, but you still dare to act like a moth, don’t live, why not earlier, what is the trouble with your son now.” After scolding enough, I will be myself By the way, let the palace people not to talk casually about it, so as to save this year from being unsatisfactory.

Concubine Xin and Concubine Ying, who were assisting with the palace affairs, heard about it, and even ordered the people in their own palace not to talk nonsense, and not to cause trouble for people who were born during the Chinese New Year.

After Qing Ting had finished watching the Lantern Festival, she heard about it after the Lantern Festival. She was surprised and said: "She still..." She didn't die, and the Fu family brothers gritted their teeth and didn't involve her. Concubine cares about before and after

She has no manners and no face, and this time she is a former concubine in the cold palace, so she really can't do much. Anyway, the emperor has almost forgotten about this person, so she was lucky to escape.

Mother Rong thought she was angry about the person who hanged himself, and said angrily: "Master, look what's going on, it's a New Year's Eve intentionally not to let people live in peace."

Qing Ting thought to herself: It's the Chinese New Year that people hang themselves.Especially on New Year's Eve.From a psychological point of view, in a lively environment, some people have a stronger sense of loneliness and frustration than usual, and are more likely to do extreme things. From a fate point of view, it is really the king of Hades who wants you to die in the third watch, who dares to keep you It's five o'clock.But she said: "The year has passed, and I see that the day is coming soon. There are some things that I can't care about, but don't be in trouble at this time. I have only had such a day in the past few years."

"That's exactly the case, so the old servant has to tell the master that he has to take some precautions." What Rong Rong meant was to make some preparations to ward off evil spirits, in case someone lowers his head, something serious will happen.Nanny Rong also knew that it would be impossible not to tell the queen about this kind of thing. She has sharp eyes and a careful heart, and if she sees it, she will think wildly. She will not be afraid if she tells her, but will make preparations early.

"There are taboos in the palace. Don't do those things. If you want to lower your head, you have to see if you have the ability." Qing Ting sneered, "By the way, Qi Gege is good. I think Concubine Shu treats this daughter well. Concubine Shu must be intensifying her brainwashing, so as not to raise her daughter in vain for others, maybe she feels pity that she is not a son.

Mother Rong smiled and said: "That's not it, Concubine Shu's name is only this girl, so she naturally treats it as her own pain." She understood and knew what to do.

There are still some well-meaning people in the palace. There are maids who are leaving the palace. It is not easy to look forward to this day, especially those who were originally from the Yanxi Palace. Overjoyed, before leaving, thinking of how kind the old master was to the people in his palace in the past, how much kindness he had, secretly looked at the old master once, and speaking of Qi Gege, how kind Shu Fei's adoptive mother was to her, how sensible Qi Gege was Obedient, and very close to the adoptive mother, not just one or two said this, there are many maids who are going out of the palace, and there are also some who are kind.

Wei Shi was already very desperate, but now he is even more hopeless. If he had known earlier, he would have hanged himself sooner.After all, she was her daughter who was born in October of her pregnancy. How could a mother not love her daughter? She still remembered how kind Qianlong was to her and her daughter in the past. After her daughter was born, she also imagined that her daughter would be born She has become slim and fit for a wishful man. Now, there is nothing, and her daughter is kissing others. Maybe, now that she sees herself, she will not recognize herself as a mother. Now that she looks in the mirror, she will recognize her as her mother. not come out.How old are you this year?Why are you so old?Why did he fall down?

After a long time, she also understood that it was the emperor who had changed, and her heart had changed.

Without her, if the emperor still had her in his heart, he wouldn't throw himself into the dust all at once.Sometimes she wondered why the empress won. In fact, it wasn't the empress who won. The emperor didn't value her very much at that time, and she was just lucky.

But ah, luck is so important sometimes, the emperor hated what happened later, annoyed that what Qianlong did later went against his will, despised Jiaqing and his descendants for not living up to expectations, and did not see how important she was to Empress Nala Wrong, she was abolished later, but the fault was on Qianlong, and this woman was chosen by himself for Qianlong. Subconsciously, he also believed that he was right, and even Qianlong was the same. Subconsciously, he had to think that he chose Qianlong. What was wrong was that Qianlong changed later, and even subconsciously believed that there were problems with the people around Qianlong, which affected him.Although the emperor didn't think so on the surface, subconsciously, he really had such thoughts.

So Qing Ting was lucky to win the grand prize, but Wei Shi was unlucky to be struck by the lightning that fell from the sky.After hearing the words of those maids who were about to leave the palace, Wei Shi didn't want to live any longer, but after what happened last time, the people in Leng Palace would not easily let her seek death again.

It turns out that living is so uncomfortable, wanting to die but not being able to die is crueler than being subjected to any torture. When the torture is over, maybe it will be over if you can’t make it through, and it’s only a few days, but now, is it going to be endured? A few months, or a few years?At least Wei knew that the Queen would not die in the months before and after giving birth.

Whoever said that the queen is kind, she is more ruthless than anyone else, killing people without blood.Wei Shi hated her to death.

————————————————————————————————————————

Because the queen's due date was approaching, the emperor told the people below to pay attention three times and five times. The queen was not young after all, and the emperor was really worried that something would happen.

There are a lot of things going on this morning. It’s spring, we need to pay attention to farming, and we need to be prepared on the border. In winter, some places were hit by disasters. Although we sent officials to deal with it properly, but now there are problems such as reconstruction, so it took a long time. , When he came down to court, he recruited the princes and ministers from the Shangshufang and the Military Aircraft Department.When he finally got some free time, the eunuch of Kunning Palace knelt down in front of him sweating and said that the empress had given birth.

The emperor was taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "Why did you come to tell me now, didn't you tell me when you have a letter? The queen is safe, how is the child, is it Elder Brother or Princess?"

"Returning to the emperor, the queen said that the emperor is busy with state affairs and should not be disturbed. Please rest assured, the emperor. After the birth of the empress, everything is safe, and little Gege is also safe."

After hearing this, the emperor felt relieved, waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Go, go to Kunning Palace, and see the queen and my little princess."

Kunning Palace

Nei, with a look of shock, needless to say, was frightened by the queen's delivery just now, but anyone who entered the delivery room just now, it is estimated that the heart will beat faster for a while.

After all, Qing Ting is not young, and the childbirth is not very smooth, but this is not a TV series, and it is not that whenever a woman gives birth, she will have dystocia, and she will not always have to do the multiple-choice question: keep the big one or keep the young one.

Qing Ting's physical strength is not as good as before, but fortunately, after the age of 30, Nala can safely give birth to a few children, and her body is still quite strong. In addition, Qing Ting pays attention to health preservation on weekdays, and her physique is not bad.After persisting for half a day, she felt that her physical strength was a little exhausted, but giving birth to a baby requires a lot of strength. The maid hurriedly asked her to take a decoction to replenish physical strength. From the labor pains to now, she has been fed a lot of food to replenish physical strength. rare.

When Qing Ting drank the ginseng soup, she glanced at the midwife, and under the effect of the pain, her mind was very clear for a moment.In ancient times, there were no modern obstetrics and gynecology medical skills and machinery, and there were differences between men and women, so midwives were very important during childbirth. Midwives were not like those later staged in film and television dramas. Experienced midwives have a lot of secret recipes that they don’t pass on to the outside world, and they can deal with various situations that arise during childbirth. There is no need for the mother’s family to do multiple-choice questions about whether to keep the big or small. However, when encountering some When the situation is serious, the method used may cause life-long harm to the mother, and some pregnant women may even have a short life due to their physical condition or bad luck.

Childbirth sometimes lasts for a long time, but when Qing Ting saw the midwife, she thought of her own age. After a long time, the situation must not be compared with those young women. At that time, the midwife would be afraid of accidents and resorted to special measures to save Qing Ting is not afraid of mothers and children, what she is afraid of is lifelong damage, not to mention that she is in her 40s now, even in her twenties, she can't stand the harm.

"Your Majesty, try harder, the fetus is already in the basin, your Majesty, please don't relax your strength."

Hard, hard, if she still has enough strength, she doesn't need to replenish her strength.She gasped for breath and pushed down again, but the result was not satisfactory.

"My lady..."

"Help me up." Qing Ting said suddenly.

The midwife was stunned for a moment, but thought that letting the queen half-sit on the bed would help the fetus move down, so she quickly helped the maid to help the queen sit up.

Qing Ting took a deep breath, forcibly holding back the abdominal pain, so that she could speak completely: "Remember what I said before, if you can't reproduce, just do as I told you before."

The maids Qiusi and Shu Qing who supported her couldn't help shaking their hands, and the faces of the others also turned pale. The queen had already ordered them to prepare a big wooden barrel in advance.

If she lost strength, she was helped into the wooden barrel, which must be filled with warm water, and the water temperature must be kept constant at all times. As soon as the words came out, she was dissuaded by the left and right, and Qing Ting considered the disinfection technology of this era, so she regressed from it. However, if it is helpful for the birth of the child, she is still willing.But for others, it was a thunderbolt from the blue sky. There had never been a precedent in the palace for waiting in warm water. If something happened to the dragon species, the emperor would still skin them alive. No one except the queen would dare to do this. Mammy, I dare not take the risk.

Qing Ting was held up by the maids on the left and right. In fact, she couldn't sit still. No matter how many times she experienced the pain of childbirth, each time it was unforgettable. The child should have come out, but at this time, she was exhausted.Nurse Rong was wiping her sweat by her side, but now she is sitting on the delivery bed, supporting her from behind, and constantly whispering encouraging words in her ear, thinking about Brother Twelve and the others, and looking forward to it for a long time kids, can't give up and stuff like that.

The midwife rubbed Qing Ting's abdomen. Her hand was so strong that Qing Ting's eyes were red from the pain. She was gnashing her teeth as if she was about to kill someone. With a hiss, the cloth towel in her hand had been torn by her.But even so, Qing Ting refused to shout.

She looked down at her abdomen. Compared with when she was pregnant, the high protuberance had moved down. As long as she exerted more force, the baby could pass through the pelvis.The child can't have an accident, and she can't have an accident either, otherwise she won't be reconciled. "Rub Ben Gong's abdomen hard, or help Ben Gong into the warm water."

The midwife has been sweating profusely for a long time. The queen's condition is likely to be due to lack of physical strength, and the fetus will not be born for a long time. After a long time, the child will be bored, and the queen herself is prone to danger, but as an experienced midwife She has a way to deal with it, but it is better to let the mother give birth by herself as much as possible, and the fetus is not very big. The biggest problem is how long the queen's own physical strength can last. We have come up with some means.However, the queen empress herself made her a little scared. She had delivered these nobles for so many years, and it was the first time she saw a queen empress like this. Other mothers would panic, scream, and be weak, but the empress empress insisted on not screaming, and She is much calmer, and sometimes, the empress's eyes look hideous, very scary, now the empress is going to give birth in some warm water, I really don't know what the empress will do if this continues.She heard that the empress wanted her to step up her efforts, so she didn't dare to hesitate.

The intensity increased, and the pain also intensified. Qing Ting couldn't help crying. When she gritted her teeth, her lips were bitten.Qing Ting was given a few mouthfuls of qi-invigorating decoction. She took a few breaths and felt that she still had some energy in her body, but she was afraid that if all this energy was used up, the child would not be born yet, and she would be completely exhausted. .She sits like this, in the gravity

Under the effect, the fetus slipped down stronger than when it was lying down. Qing Ting suddenly leaned forward, grabbing a palace lady, and forced herself to keep leaning forward.

The curvature of the body strengthened the downward force of the fetus. She felt that the position of the fetus had moved much more than before. The midwife quickly stretched her hand to the birth canal, and she had already touched the baby's head. "Your Majesty, work harder, the baby's head will come out."

Qing Ting didn't dare to relax at all, fearing that once she relaxed, she would no longer be able to muster up any more energy, and she would no longer have any energy. She just kept herself in this state and used up all her last energy.

When the baby completely left the birth canal, Qing Ting was paralyzed, and she didn't even know what other people said, let alone heard the baby crying.

In fact, the baby's crying sounded healthy. After the baby was washed, Nanny Rong hugged the baby and refused to let go. She liked it more and more, and felt that Little Gege was as beautiful as the Empress Empress. .

But in the delivery room, except for Nanny Rong who quickly adjusted, the others still had lingering fears. They recalled that the empress seemed to only yell once during the whole process. , don’t disturb the emperor’s business.”

Other concubines, as long as their status is high enough, when they give birth, they will always ask if the emperor has come. After hearing that the emperor has arrived, they scream miserably, but if they can scream so loud, it means that she has no problem giving birth.

But empress, I am afraid that the emperor is really sitting outside, and she is unwilling to call out. During the whole delivery process, she never asked, the emperor——is her husband here?Although Qing Ting did not become the first pregnant woman waiting to give birth in the Qing Dynasty, she became the first frightening pregnant woman in the Qing Dynasty, which can be regarded as a consummation of merit.

The maid captured by Qing Ting suffered from severe pain in her shoulders and arms. She must have turned blue and purple even without looking. It seemed that her bones were about to break. There were tears in her eyes, and she forced herself not to cry.Fortunately, Qing Ting herself remembered this incident, and asked Nanny Rong to give her an extra reward, plus a bottle of good external medicine.

When the emperor finished his business, her labor was over. The emperor didn't know what happened in the delivery room. He looked at the newborn little Gege with a happy face. Although it was not the first time he was a father, this was his life. , the first is really his own child.But after watching for a while, his complexion gradually changed, and he turned into his usual serious and even gloomy expression.The emperor was like this, and ordered them to take good care of the queen, little Gege, and then walk away.

The people in Kunning Palace couldn't help feeling uneasy, doesn't it mean that the Emperor doesn't like Little Gege?But the emperor distributed rewards according to the rule of giving birth to a son, and everyone was puzzled: Does the emperor like Xiao Gege, or does he not like Xiao Gege?

Qing Ting woke up after sleeping for two days. She hadn't recovered yet, she had no strength in her body, so she could only lie on the bed. She happily looked at her daughter, the newborn child, her pink facial features, and her tender arms like bamboo shoots. not enough.

Qing Ting asked about the behavior of the emperor that day, she was silent, and others didn't know, she knew in her heart that the emperor must have thought about the issue of seniority, this matter can only be said to be a trick of good luck, put it simply, God is too much this time Wicked.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor may still want a son-in-law, but the Emperor still likes Little Gege very much. You see, Little Gege's nose looks like the Emperor's, and his mouth looks like the Empress's." Nanny Rong thought the Queen's silence was a Worried that the emperor didn't like Xiao Gege, she hurriedly comforted her and changed the subject. In her opinion, Xiao Gege is the most beautiful woman in the world. What is the beauty of the world is our little Gege.

Qing Ting stared at the child for a long time, and felt that it was too early to tell who he looked like.
