[Qing Chuan] The Empress Dowager Raising Cubs Daily

On the other side, Baocheng came to Zhongcui Palace.

After reaching the door, he stopped again. In fact, from his previous life to this life, it was the first time Baocheng had returned to Zhongcui Palace.

When I came to the door, I didn't know what to do.

Baocheng probed his head, Baocheng stopped and circled for half a cup of tea before he dared to walk in.

I'm here for my younger brother!

Baocheng secretly cheered himself up, put his hands behind his back, and walked in with small square steps.

The palace people were stunned.

Looking at His Highness the Crown Prince who was as proud as a little rooster, everyone's faces were blank.After a while, someone came to his senses and knelt on the ground: "Slave pays respects to the crown prince!"

Then the rest of the palace people came back to their senses.

All the palace people knelt down in the courtyard, and the voices of greetings one after another also attracted the attention of the palace people in the palace. The court lady Qiuyun lifted the curtain and looked out, then she couldn't stop exclaiming, and rushed forward to invite the prince into the palace.

With a calm expression on Baocheng's face, he greeted Concubine Rong who came forward: "Concubine Rong..."

Baocheng's voice stopped abruptly.

He raised his head and was startled by Concubine Rong's appearance.

Concubine Rong's complexion was sallow, her figure was thin, her cheeks were so thin that they were sunken, and the fundus of her eyes was even faintly dark. She was clearly about the same age as Empress Empress, but she looked ten years older. a feeling of.If Baocheng hadn't been sure that he had come to the wrong palace, and had even seen the older Concubine Rong, he might not have recognized him at first sight.

Baocheng's eyes widened.

He couldn't help raising his voice and asked: "Rong, Concubine Rong? You, are you... Are you sick?"

Concubine Rong was slightly taken aback, and then forced a smile.

She replied in a low voice: "The concubine is not sick, please trouble your highness to take care of me."

Baocheng hesitated to speak.

Concubine Rong's voice was gentle and melancholy, she didn't look like she was fine... What?But Concubine Rong didn't want to say it, and Baocheng couldn't force it, so she had to change the subject dryly: "I'm here to see... the third and sixth brothers."

Concubine Rong hesitated for a moment.

The prince's question made her a little bit at a loss, and at the same time, she was a little on guard.

Concubine Rong's eyes flashed with vigilance, and then she felt that she was too nervous.She stood there looking very tangled, she pursed her lips for a while, and replied in a low voice: "...Bao Shun just fell asleep, maybe His Highness the Crown Prince can come back next time?"

The voice fell, but there was a burst of crying in the room.

Concubine Rong's excuse just now was useless in an instant, Baocheng, who even heard Concubine Rong's polite refusal, felt a little embarrassed for Concubine Rong.He scratched his cheek: "Madam Rong, how about... go and coax my younger brother first? Gu will come with Han Ama tomorrow?"

Concubine Rong saw that the prince who was only three years old behaved gracefully, and his words were even more generous, she immediately felt more ashamed and decided that she was too petty.

She hesitated for a moment, but said in a low voice: "If His Royal Highness doesn't mind being noisy...how about going in together to have a look?"

The surrounding palace people showed some disbelief.

Baocheng's eyes lit up, and his big black eyes sparkled: "Is it really possible?"

The little prince is so cute and healthy...

Concubine Rong's heart trembled, thinking that if Baoshun could get in touch with the prince more, maybe Baoshun would be as healthy as the prince?Her heart beat faster, with a sincere smile on her face, she invited the prince to go inside.

Baocheng walked into the next room.

The main hall and the second room were separated by a green gauze cabinet, and the moment the door was opened, a gust of hot air and the smell of medicine swept out together, hitting his face directly.

Baocheng paused.

He opened his eyes wide in surprise, and looked forward in surprise, the sweat that had just collected was so hot that it evaporated again.What surprised Baocheng the most was that Concubine Rong and the palace people walked in calmly as if they didn't know anything about it.

Baoshun was lying on the small bed in the middle.

He opened his mouth and wailed loudly, and it was useless for several palace people to comfort him repeatedly.

Concubine Rong originally wanted to entertain the prince well, but seeing the crying Baoshun, she immediately put the prince's existence behind her.Concubine Rong eagerly took Baoshun, hugged her in her arms and comforted her in a low voice, perhaps because she was in the arms of her familiar mother, Baoshun's crying gradually became softer, turning into sobs.

It just didn't stop.

Baocheng wiped his sweat, and he took a closer look: "Baoshun..."

A bit ugly?

Baocheng still remembered that Concubine Rong was still by his side, and subconsciously swallowed the evaluation back to his stomach.It's been three months, but Baoshun hasn't grown much, but it seems... seems... getting thinner?Moreover, his skin was yellow, his crying was weak, and he looked unhealthy.

Baocheng frowned: "... Is my brother sick?"

He thought about it for a while, and was a little puzzled: "During the full moon, Gu Wang's younger brother was still chubby and chubby."

At the full moon, Baoshun was still healthy.

White and fat, round and round, even the Empress Mama, who never liked Concubine Rong very much, couldn't hold back, hugged her and teased her for a while.

Concubine Rong felt bitter.

Just as she was about to explain, a court lady rushed in: "Master, the Empress Dowager and Empress Empress are here!"

Concubine Rong and Baocheng were taken aback at the same time.

The two had the same idea, both felt that the Empress Dowager and Empress Xu came to find the prince/orphan.Therefore, Concubine Rong hurriedly handed Baoshun into the hands of the nanny, and said to Baocheng in a warm voice: "Your Highness the Crown Prince will go out with the concubine first?"

Baocheng said hello.

The strange thing is that the empress dowager and the empress did not enter the palace, but wandered around in the courtyard.Both Concubine Rong and Baocheng were very puzzled. When they went out to have a look, Qiqi was a little dazed.

Baocheng blushed a little, it didn't seem like he was looking for him?

What was even more surprising was Concubine Rong. She was surprised to find that the one who was leading the empress dowager and empress dowager around the courtyard... was actually Ling Yi.

Concubine Rong opened her mouth, but did not speak.

She stared at Ling Yi intently, as if she saw another child... It was like.

Ling Yi has always been gentle and dignified, careful and conscientious, she is still young enough to manage Zhong Cui Palace well, she is her caring little padded jacket, and she is not a child to worry about.

But Ling Yi in front of him is different.

Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her black eyes seemed to be filled with starlight.Lingyi raised her head slightly, and proudly introduced Zhongcui Palace to the Empress Dowager, Empress and Baoqing.She was not in a hurry to bring everyone into the hall, but pointed to the swing under the corridor: "Emianang sent someone to make this for my son!"

Then Ling Yi ran to the front of the hall again.

There is a large water tank with a few big lotus leaves on it. When the lotus leaves are opened, the little fishes who are escaping the heat appear in front of everyone in an instant.They shook their heads and flicked their tails, very uncomfortable, different colors but beautiful faces, Ling Yi was very proud: "This is what Er Niang and Er Chen fished in the pond together... Er?"

Where else could there be a pond in a palace?

Qiqige looked at the little koi inside, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and stretched out her hand to flick the forehead of the bomber.

Ling Yi sticks out her tongue, and then turns to point to the little doll on the window sill: "Also, this is also made by Er Niang and Er Chen together?"

All kinds of small animals and flowers lined up in a row.

The cute and lovely shape made people's eyes shine, and Qiqige couldn't help boasting: "Concubine Rong's hands are very skillful."

"The grandson is also..."

"Okay, Lingyi is also great!"

Ling Yi jumped up and down happily.

She happily pointed to the vase next to it, the hanging wind chime and the small house made of dried flowers, leaves and branches...

Concubine Rong stood where she was, a little dazed.

Before Baoshun, she always took Lingyi to look at this, play with that, and walk and play together in the garden.

During that time, Ling Yi was also so happy.

When did she hold back her smile, help herself with things, and often call out "Er Niang to rest, Erchen can do it by himself..." in a sensible way?

It seems to be after six months of pregnancy.

Concubine Rong's heart throbbed for a moment, she couldn't say what the emotion in her heart was, but she had a feeling in a trance—maybe when she didn't pay attention, she... lost something.

What Lingyi said was not enough.

Qiqige, the queen and Baoqing were all very face-saving, and they either gave praise or applauded wherever they said.

The instrument is very satisfied.

When she turned around and saw Concubine Rong walking out the door, she was even more happy.

Ling Yi bouncing and trotting forward.

She handed the sunflowers she had just picked in the garden to Concubine Rong, and at the same time chattered: "Er Niang—Er Niang—Er Chen brought you sunflowers! The emperor Mama said that the flower language of sunflowers is not to ask for help." The protection of reciprocation - just like Erniang! And the sunflowers are as bright as the sun, dazzling and dazzling, full of vigor and vitality, my brother can cheer up when he sees it... Eh? Erniang?"

Maybe...it's not too late, right?

Concubine Rong hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her slightly trembling hand, and hugged Ling Yi tightly.

Ling Yi opened her eyes wide, a little shy.

Her cheeks were flushed: "Emiang... let go, Huang Mama and Huang'eniang still have Baoqing... Huh? Why are you here, Baocheng?"

Baocheng, who eats melons, blinks.

He showed an innocent smile: "... Gu was here just now?"

Then Baocheng looked at Baoqing with a half-smile.

His sight was full of murderous intent, which made Baoqing shrink his neck subconsciously, and waved his hands: "Yo!"

"Hey! Baoqing!"

"Tsk, I just kissed it, why does it seem like a girl is so irritable..." Baoqing yelled, but he didn't expect to say the words, Baocheng, who had calmed down most of his anger, became angry again, chasing Baoqing and surrounded Qiqige And around the queen.

In the end, Qiqige and the queen had to go out.

Qiqige hugged Baoqing, and the queen at the side grabbed Baocheng and forcibly interrupted the battle.

Then they looked at Concubine Rong, mother and daughter who were hugging each other.

Although I don't know what Concubine Rong realized at once, but it's a good thing to think about it, right?With a smile on her face, Qiqige walked into the hall with the queen. They were also taken aback by the heat and the smell of medicine in the second room. Qiqige raised her voice and said, "What's going on? Baoshun is sick. , why doesn't the Ai family know?"

Concubine Rong cheered up.

She had a bitter face: "The imperial doctors couldn't figure out why, Baoshun didn't like to eat or drink, and always cried a lot."

Ling Yi also nodded.

She looked at Qiqige pitifully: "My younger brother is always crying, Erniang can't even have a good rest at night..."

Qiqige sized up Concubine Rong carefully.

Concubine Rong was able to regain Kangxi's favor after she made a mistake, so naturally she has her own capital.She has a beautiful appearance and a graceful figure, which can be called a national beauty, but now after looking up and down, Qi Qige was taken aback.

Concubine Rong's face was haggard, her cheekbones protruded because of her thinness, except for the beautiful outline that could still be seen between her eyebrows and eyes, she had long since lost the beauty in Qiqige's memory.

It can be seen that Concubine Rong has had a bad rest recently.

The problem is Baoshun... Qiqige walked straight into the next room, raised her eyes to look at the bed.

Qiqige's face darkened.

She stepped up again, walked straight to the window, pulled aside all the gauze curtains with a clatter, and even opened the window.Not only that, Qiqige also bowed her head and ordered: "Bring in an ice basin."

Concubine Rong stood there blankly.

Baocheng blinked, and suddenly remembered the thought that flashed through his mind earlier.He let out an ah, and opened his eyes wide: "It can't be...too hot, right?"

Qiqige rested her forehead and sighed.

She glanced at Concubine Rong: "It's the end of June now, you still close the windows, don't use the ice basin, and put three pieces of clothes on Baoshun and put them in the bedding..."

This child is a ghost if he doesn't cry!

Qiqige looked at Baoshun's sallow face, then looked at the lines of red letters, and couldn't help complaining: "The medicine is three-point poisonous, how can such a young child drink medicine every day? Aijia stopped it, Concubine Rong, you take Baoshun to bask in the sun every morning and evening, so it won't take long to get well."
