Returning the Pearl: Xia Jiayouzi

Chapter 63

"News from Shufangzhai?"

In the study of his mansion, Baba was thinking about his brothers in his previous life, but he didn't expect to hear the conversation between Shufangzhai Ziweihua and Little Swallow in the Dark Guardian News.

After flipping through the two thin pages a few times, the corners of his mouth curled into a chuckle: "Send someone to secretly tell Huanzhu Gege that the matter of confinement is the emperor's holy order, and I don't have the ability to guess the holy will. In addition, six Tell them the news about Elder Brother going to Mount Wutai, and the news about Fu Erkang being ill in bed, let Xia Ziwei know about it."

"Yes."

The dark guard retreated silently, Baba was thinking about Tsinghua.Through the brief contact last time, I can be sure that this is definitely not his brothers in the previous life, but his methods are no worse than them. Qianlong gave birth to a good son, and this is his identity...

Otherwise, it would be enough to become a Great Treasure...

Thinking of the self in the previous life, isn't it because of the identity of Er Niang that...

It's not that he can't let go of the things of his previous life. Even if Huang Ama reprimanded him in public for "being born by Xin Zheku's cheap maid", he never really hated Huang Ama. It's only because he didn't see Huang Ama's true intentions clearly. In his eyes and heart, there is only one son, the crown prince...

Thinking of the prince, Baba also considered the possibility that Tsinghua's younger brother, Xia Fenghua, was the prince.The crown prince's Ni Lin in his previous life was Queen Hesheli. Even if he was imprisoned by Huang Ama and his spirit was flattened, but after being an emperor all his life, he shouldn't be unresponsive when he heard Fucha Haozhen's insults like that. yes.

Now there is only news about the boss, and I don't know what happened to the other brothers?And that straightforward person, in his previous life, after all, he was the one who made him suffer...

The boss doesn't care about anything now, and only Sansan is single-minded.Even after knowing the identities of the crown prince and Jiujiu, he didn't intend to tell Baba, a brother who has the time to think about the bad things in his previous life might as well spend his time trying to please the "beautiful woman".

As for Sansan, he didn't really forgive the boss, even though he knew Shi 34's identity, he didn't intend to tell the boss.Ten 34 is still young, Sansan is a princess in this life, and Baba has no chance to see her, so ah, poor Baba who misses her brother so much in her previous life!

Yanxi Palace.

"Your Majesty, I got the exact news that the sixth elder brother has already left the palace for Mount Wutai." Dong Xue, dressed in a pink court lady's attire, immediately went into the inner room to report to Fairy Ling after receiving the news.

Ling Xianzi looked happy, and covered her belly carefully, her hands, which were as white as jade, did not see the bright red Danko in the past, and gently placed them on her lower abdomen.

She has been pregnant for more than two months.

Last time because of Little Swallow's troubles, innocents were grounded, not to mention that they couldn't even keep their concubine position.But she knew Qianlong too well, she was only angry for a while, and after a few days, when the anger subsided, the imperial concubine was still hers.After all, isn't it just a matter of the emperor's words to be a concubine or a concubine?

She had known about her pregnancy a long time ago, she only had Qigege and Jiugege under her knees, she finally got an elder brother, Qianlong even gave her the name Yonglu, but she also died.Now she still lacks an elder brother, this child, no matter what, must be an elder brother.

So what if Little Yanzi's elder brother gets the Sacred Heart again?Qianlong had the idea of ​​establishing a reserve, and it also depends on whether the people in the clan agree or not.Not to mention the twelfth elder brother Prince Yinlulu, who was born by Lord Kangxi who is in charge of the clan's mansion, even the ministers of civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty would not agree.The establishment of a reserve is related to the country, the country, the national economy and the people's livelihood, and it is not determined by Qianlong's personal preferences.

However, Fairy Ling also knew Qianlong's temper. It was one thing not to set up a reserve, but another thing to love him.Now that he has just recognized this son, it is because he loves him so much, it is not a good thing to be pregnant at this juncture, it will make the concubines of the sixth palace look sideways, and Qianlong may not be very happy.It would be better to wait until Tsinghua left and Qianlong's enthusiasm cooled down, so that he would have the energy to turn his attention to Lingfei's stomach.

"Really? Then go ask the imperial physician, and tell me that I'm not feeling well." Ling concubine spoke softly, her gestures and gestures were naturally amorous.

Son, you have to give Er Niang some confidence...

"Yes, I'm going now, servant girl." Dongxue happily retreated. These days, the empress has been grounded, and she is no longer the same as before. The emperor seems to have forgotten the empress. The people in Yanxi Palace are worse than many palace people. Cold eyes, now I can finally feel proud.

In a short while, Li Taiyi came, and then the news that the concubine was two months pregnant spread throughout the palace.

When the queen heard that Nanny Rong came to tell the time, she was listening to Yongjing's endorsement, but she just smiled and said "I know, let me take care of you" and ignored it. Instead, Yongjing asked curiously: "Emperor Niang, does Yongjing have a little brother again?"

The queen said softly: "I don't know whether it's the little brother or the little sister. I will know later. Yongjing should memorize the book first, otherwise Tsinghua brother will be angry when he comes back and sees that Yongjing didn't memorize the book."

"Well, Yongjing studied hard, Tsinghua brother will definitely praise Yongjing when he comes back."

Qianlong, who was in the Qianqing Palace, knew about it, and smiled inscrutably, and asked Gao Wuyong to pass the decree to relieve the concubine's half-year confinement, and restored her status, and the concubine became the concubine again.

All the concubines in He Palace sent gifts and went to Yanxi Palace to congratulate, except for the queen and the two noble concubines, all the others went to Yanxi Palace in person.Afterwards, Qianlong's rewards also flowed into the Yanxi Palace like flowing water, and the concubine Ling really gained a lot of limelight.

"Dongxue, let the word out, just say that this palace wants to raise the baby with peace of mind, and temporarily see no guests [of course, this no-visitor does not include people with higher status than her], especially people from Shufangzhai." Ling Fei sent off After the concubines, they walked into the inner room while stroking their bellies, and gave orders to Dong Xue.Concubine Ling was also afraid of Little Swallow's recklessness, if she was not careful, and something happened to the child, she couldn't afford to lose.

"Your Majesty may have forgotten that Shufangzhai has long been grounded by the emperor, and Huanzhugege still has a hundred scriptures to copy." Dongxue laughed, trying to make Concubine Ling happy by telling some interesting things.

"The emperor will not ban her feet for ten months. It will be too late when the ban expires. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that this palace is targeting Shu Fangzhai. By the way, is there any news from this palace? Is there a message that my younger brother is about to marry a wife? Why is there no news at all?" Lingfei picked up a piece of delicate pastry on the small table, and suddenly thought of her beloved younger brother.

"Your servant doesn't know either." Dongxue frowned, saying that it was really a long time since there was any letter from the empress's family, "Why don't you send a message to Master Wei?"

Wei Qingtai is the father of Concubine Ling, and his official position is the internal management leader. He is neither big nor small. If you want to contact him, you can.

"Alright. There is also Yongqi, the sixth elder brother went to Mount Wutai, but didn't Yong Qi come back with the sixth elder brother? Why is there no news of him these days?"

"Your Majesty, this time the Emperor really annoyed Brother Fifth." Dong Xue hesitated, and finally said softly.

Concubine Ling was only slightly surprised, "What's going on? Hasn't the Emperor always liked Fifth Elder Brother?"

"On the day when I came back from the chaos, I was supposed to visit the emperor. Even the sixth elder brother went to Qianqing Palace early, but the fifth elder brother stayed outside the palace for a long time. Not only did he save a girl who sold herself to bury her father, but also He sent her to Prince He's mansion, and Prince He directly sent her to the palace, and the emperor arranged for the girl to be in the Yonghe Palace of Concubine Yu, but he never saw Fifth Elder Brother again."

"What? How could Yongqi be so confused? It's fine to just tell a servant about this kind of thing, why is he getting involved in it himself?"

"Your servant doesn't know either, and," Dong Xue lowered her voice, "According to reports from our people, the fifth elder brother met a friend from the rivers and lakes outside the palace. It’s the meaning of seeing each other late. I didn’t take any action against the emperor’s obvious indifference.”

Concubine Ling tapped her fingers on the table, thinking over and over again.

"Tell me, could it be Brother Six..."

"The servant also guessed, but why? If it is said that the sixth elder brother is now deeply favored by the emperor, it makes sense to frame the fifth elder brother who was also favored by the emperor, but people in the palace are competing to praise it. Not to mention the twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth princes under the queen's knees and Princess Lanxin, even the seventh elder brother Yong Rong and ninth elder brother Yongxuan who were not valued by the emperor usually got along very well. Moreover, the sixth elder brother has just returned to the palace not long ago and is not familiar with the situation, so it seems unreasonable to deal with the fifth elder brother rashly."

Concubine Ling nodded, agreeing with what Dong Xue said.

"Besides...the servant also heard something..."

Concubine Ling smiled and said, "What's so hard to say? Come on, I can hold on now..." Concubine Ling couldn't help making a little joke, but what Dong Xue said next made her unable to laugh.

"I heard that the sixth elder brother went to the third elder brother's mansion with the prince on the day when he went to fight against the chaos. Moreover, the third elder brother has lived in the prince's mansion for a long time."
