From Zhen Huan

.

When I came in, Zhu Rou was almost fainted, I rushed to the bed and pried open her mouth and poured half a bowl of warm ginseng soup, then pinched the softest part of her armpits hard .

Zhu Rou let out a scream, and immediately regained her sanity.

I stuffed a towel into her mouth for her to bite on, and while massaging her raised belly, I continued to pinch the most painful part of her body. After another half an hour, the baby was finally born.The price was Zhu Rouze's life, almost the whole bed was soaked in her blood.

After changing the quilt, Xuan Ling finally came in. I didn't want to see the couple parting, so I retreated to the outside room with the nuns, cleaned the second prince, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes.

Because the mother's body was weak and the delivery took too long, the second prince looked very thin and pitiful. After holding him in her arms, the queen mother heard his weak cry and shouted "poor".

At this time, Xuan Ling's voice came from inside, and I helped the Queen Mother go in, while Zhu Rou lay on the bed and looked at the swaddling baby in the Queen Mother's arms stretching out her hand, Xuan Ling sat on the side of the bed and held Zhu Rouze's hand tightly.I hugged the second prince from the empress dowager's arms and handed it to Xuan Ling. Xuan Ling's hands holding the child were trembling, but he insisted on holding the child for Zhu Rou to see.

Seeing the hard-working child, Zhu Rou couldn't help showing a weak and loving smile, and then called out: "Yixiu." She motioned for me to pick up the child.

I picked up the second prince as I said, and Zhu Rou motioned me to sit down again, putting Xuan Ling's hand on my arm, her eyes full of longing.Then she looked at me and begged, "Yixiu, promise me to take care of the second prince and Shiro, and treat it as my sister's last request to you."

I was already in tears at this time, but I couldn't bear to refuse, so I had to reply: "I will only help you take care of these few days, and I will take care of you after a few days when you are well, sister, don't blame me for being lazy, what else can I do? There is a biological mother who takes care of it carefully and properly!"

Zhu Rou nodded, then grabbed Xuan Ling's hand firmly, and said, "After I die, I will be the empress."

Xuan Ling's eyes were red, and she suppressed tears and refused: "You are my queen, I will not stand up for anyone else."

Zhu Rou grasped Xuan Ling's hand with force instantly, her veins popped, and said with difficulty: "Promise me, promise me..."

"I promise you, I promise everything you say." Xuan Ling replied with tears in his eyes, with a painful and desperate expression on his face that I had never seen before.

Following Xuan Ling's answer, Zhu Rou seemed to lose all her strength in an instant, her hand slipped and fell on the bright red bed sheet, she was pale and pitiful.Looking at the baby in my arms, I said very softly: "My child..." Then I closed my eyes and never opened them again.

For a long time afterwards, Xuan Ling was immersed in the grief of losing his loved one. After three months in court, he did not summon a concubine for more than a year. Apart from dealing with political affairs, he devoted all his energy to Accompany the prince, that is, the second prince.

In order to commemorate Zhu Rouze, Empress of Chunyuan, the second prince was named 'Yuze', and he was established as the crown prince, who was temporarily raised by the queen mother.

And my child, the three-year-old eldest prince, finally has his own name, Yuhan.

13. Successor should be repaired

Half a year after my elder sister Chunyuan Empress Zhu Rouze passed away, I was finally promoted from imperial concubine to empress. So far, I have a beautiful appearance, a healthy body, lively and lovely children, and a supreme status.

I already have what a woman pursues in her life, beauty, health, children, money and status.

Although my relationship with Zhu Rouze is far better than that between Zhu Yixiu and Zhu Rouze before, but as the only child of Zhu Rouze and Xuan Ling, the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Xuan Ling is not at ease entrusting me to take care of it , but handed over Prince Yuze to Empress Dowager Zhu Chengbi.

I am naturally happy and relaxed. Due to the weakness of the mother, Yuze was not well nourished in the womb, and it was difficult to give birth. It took a long time to be born. It is much more difficult to take care of than ordinary children. One mistake may be possible. lead to premature death.But I also promised that Zhu Rou would take good care of her child, so I often took my Yuhan to see this newborn little brother, and I was able to check his body secretly.

The Empress Dowager is indeed the most powerful woman in the harem. Yu Ze's residence has been cleaned up like an iron bucket. It is very difficult for me to do anything, and it is even more difficult for the few other concubines in the harem.Therefore, even if Yu Ze has always been weak and weak, he is still growing up gradually, but he has been raised with medicine since he was a child, and he is afraid that he will not live a long life in the future.

Xuanling didn't set foot in the harem, and there were few concubines in the harem at this time, and the only heirs were my Yu Han and the crown prince Yu Ze, which made my life very leisurely and comfortable.

Yuhan was more than three years old at this time, so I compiled an enlightenment textbook for him with some simple and interesting historical stories. It is more vivid and interesting than the Three Character Classic, and it is more life-like.

I have reincarnated for several lives. I have read various poems, history books, and travel notes, and I can remember a lot. Sometimes I improvise when I am excited, the content is imaginative, and the stories are very interesting.Not only Yuhan listened with gusto, but Huichun and Jianqiu, including the newly promoted Xiuxia and Randong, were all very interested.

If Xuan Ling didn't come to the harem, there would be less fighting and more peace in the harem.

When the weather is good, I will also invite Concubine Duan out to sit, drink tea and chat, watch singing and dancing, and there are no other entertainments in the palace.

Concubine Duan naturally likes children, but she has nothing to do for so many years, and the prince cannot get close, so she loves my eldest prince Yuhan very much.Yuhan also likes Concubine Duan very much, and sometimes she hides in her palace when it makes me angry, and the two of them plead with me together, which makes me dumbfounded.

As for Concubine De and Concubine Xian, they were still implicated by Zhu Rouze as in the book, and of course these two were not really innocent.The only ones in the harem who have been preserved are Concubine Duan, who has always been wise and safe, and me as my own younger sister.

By the time Yuhan was almost five years old, Empress Chunyuan had passed away for more than a year, and Xuanling also began to spend less time in the harem at this time.

Concubine Duan is indifferent, and she is considerate but not affectionate with the emperor. Xuanling's loss of his beloved wife is just the time when he needs comfort, so he comes to my palace more often.

Compared to the frail and sickly Yu Ze, my Yu Han is lively and active, and she is used to being obedient and playful when she sees people. She doesn't admit that she is a stranger to Xuan Ling. After getting along a lot, Xuan Ling also cultivated some father-son feelings towards Yu Han.

And when we were together, we mostly sighed with me and recalled my sister Zhu Rouze, and I just responded to this in a neutral way.One of the advantages of getting along with each other in several lifetimes is that I am very familiar with Xuan Ling's preferences and habits, and I take good care of him very carefully, which makes him very useful. Later, when I came to see me, I was a little more sincere.Occasionally, he will also care about my preferences, and no longer blindly recall his other woman. After doing this a few times, he was surprised to find that we actually have a lot of common topics.Whether it's piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, astronomy and geography, or even current affairs and politics, I can interject, and we have a good conversation.

Xuan Ling has not been in power for a long time, and the government is not stable. There are often times when I am bored. Whenever this happens, my Zhaoyang Palace becomes a good place to relax.

I have a demure personality, and I don't need to coax him. Instead, I gave him considerable leisure and freedom in Zhaoyang Palace.The service to him is even more meticulous, taking into account his preferences in every point, so that he can relax his whole body and mind.

Until the draft, we got along like this for more than a year. Unlike Zhu Rou who fell in love with him heart-to-heart, I finally took a place in his heart with a completely different way of flowing slowly and quietly.

In this draft, the most eye-catching one is naturally Murong Shilan, a woman who is as delicate and beautiful as a raging fire. Even if such a woman had not been pre-determined because of her status, Xuan Ling would not be willing to let it go.

In addition to this, there was Feng Chaoruo, the later Concubine Jing, Zhen Huan's good helper.In addition, Cao Moqin is also a familiar name, but I can't remember the others clearly.

In addition to Murong Shilan, I also selected several different types of women, such as dignified, gentle, or charming, and Xuan Ling seemed more reserved. Except for Murong Shilan, who was personally selected by him, the others were basically I chose it.But looking at his appearance, he seemed very satisfied. That's true. The women I selected are not only beautiful, but also have their own characteristics.

At this time Xuan Ling was only in his early twenties, and he hadn't gotten along with many women, so at first glance, he would inevitably be dazzled by so many beautiful women.

Murong Shilan entered the palace as the fourth-rank Ronghua, and was promoted to a noble concubine of the third rank just after serving in bed. She was titled 'Hua' and was the head of Mixiu Palace. Palace, the momentum is extremely strong.

My more than a year of hard work has not been in vain, and Xuan Ling and Zhu Yixiu are not as eccentric as Zhu Yixiu was at the beginning, so although Xuan Ling favors the newcomers, one of them will stay in my Zhaoyang Palace for seven or eight days, not just The first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, the two days stipulated by the ancestors.

Although there are many more concubines in the harem, the foundation is not stable after all, and they are busy buying people's hearts, currying favor with Xuan Ling, and fighting for favor.And I not only have a harmonious relationship with Xuan Ling, but also have a son who is in charge of the power of the six palaces. Even the increasingly arrogant Huagui concubine dare not presumptuously in front of me, and will obediently come to pay my respects every day.It is far from Concubine Hua in the future, who can stand against Zhu Yixiu and stand on equal footing
