Chapter 286: Beg

Princess Huyang moved out of the palace hopefully.
King Ning kept his promise, and he delivered thousands of taels to host an initiation banquet for Huyang County.
Not to mention how the princesses and the princesses ridiculed the Huyang princess at the banquet, and how the Huyang princess fought back, causing a good feast to be a mess.
Pei is really satisfied.
Finally, Princess Huyang was driven out of the shit-chucking stick, thank God.
Good things are in pairs, Xiao Qin'er is really pregnant, only more than a month.
Pei was so happy, she first told Xiao Qin'er to have a good baby, and she would arrange someone else to take care of it in the sewing room.
Then he sent someone to send a letter to Liu Yi, asking Liu Yi to be happy too.
After finding out that she was pregnant, Xiao Qin'er began to suffer from morning sickness every day, vomiting into a dark place.
Gu Jiu kindly gave Xiao Qin'er a prescription to stop morning sickness.
In front of people, Xiao Qin'er thanked Gu Jiu for his kindness.
Carrying people, she threw the prescription decisively.
And arranged: "Who knows whether she is really kind or fake. I am pregnant, and she gave the prescription. If I really eat her prescription and something goes wrong, can she be responsible? I think she is obviously hiding the evil heart."
The maid persuaded: "Madam calms down. Madam is pregnant this time. If he is a brother, he will be the eldest grandson of the Royal Mansion. The slave and maid must be anxious, so she deliberately sent someone a prescription."
Xiao Qin'er agreed, "Gu Jiu wants to crush me in everything. This time I am pregnant first. When I give birth to the eldest grandson of the palace, I will see how she can crush me."
The maid smiled and said: "The son Zhao is still in the Zongzheng Temple. The lady wants to get pregnant, but I don't know the year of the monkey."
When Xiao Qin'er heard this, she was in a good mood, "I, I hope that Gongzizhao will be detained in Zongzheng Temple for many years. It is best to keep him locked up for ten or eight years. When Gu Jiu's old Zhuhuang, Gongzizhao will be released. The son Zhao saw her, he must have been very disgusted. By then, I will have to see what Gu Jiu is capable of insane."
"Madam is right."
Xiao Qin'er stroked her abdomen, "You said my baby is really a brother?"
The maid said affirmatively: "The slave and maid can guarantee that it must be the brother."
Xiao Qin'er said with lingering fears: "I hope this pregnancy goes smoothly."
She was frightened by Ouyang Fu. Ouyang Fu married into the palace for two or three years and was pregnant before. However, because of the unstable fetal image, the child failed to survive in the final miscarriage and was also a brother.
Since then, Ouyang Fu's stomach has not moved. I heard that I have been taking medicine for recuperation.
"Madam, don't worry, this baby will be safe and smooth."
Xiao Qin'er nodded secretly.
...
Princess Huyang left the palace, and the palace seemed to be deserted.
Throughout April, I spent the whole month peacefully, and even nothing happened.
When the time entered May, the weather suddenly heated up.
The sky in the capital is like a big steamer, everyone is crying that it can't stand it.
The emperor is too old to bear the heat.
When the weather is hot, he thinks about it. Decided to go to Changle Palace in Beimanshan to escape the summer heat.
A hundred officials of civil and military affairs, accompanied by royal family members.
There were still a few days before leaving to go to the palace to escape the summer heat, Gu Mei's stomach was activated.
After two days and one night of hard labor, she gave birth to a girl weighing six kilograms in the evening.
On the day of washing three, Gu Jiu took the three golds he had already laid and went to Daihou Mansion to visit Gu Mei.
The Daihou Mansion was beaming up and down.
Gu Jiu first went to meet the old lady of Daihou Mansion, and then went to the backyard to visit Gu Mei.
The eldest wife, Xiao Wei, was also there, she was speaking with Gu Mei.
When Gu Jiu entered, the expressions of the mother and daughter were a little unnatural.
"Auntie Lobby is also here, you have worked hard these days."
When Gu Mei gave birth, the eldest wife and Xiao Wei had been guarding outside the delivery room.
Gu Mei was born for two days and one night, and the eldest wife, Xiao Wei, guarded her for two days and one night.
I haven't taken a rest yet, so I came back today to do the cleaning for the child again.
"Xiao Jiu is here, sit down quickly."
"Sister Xiao Jiu, please sit down."
"Auntie in the lobby, sister Mei, you don't have to be polite with me. What about the children?"
Gu Mei smiled and said, "The nurse took it out to feed her, and she will be sent in later."
Gu Jiu held Gu Mei's wrist and diagnosed her pulse, "Sister Mei's complexion looks good. After giving birth, you must pay attention to rest, not to be tired, and not to get angry. In the confinement, you should pay attention to what you should pay attention to."
Gu Mei's body has no major problems, but is weak after childbirth and needs to be recuperated.
Gu Mei has dark circles under her eyes, and obviously she hasn't rested well these days.
She said: "Thank you, Sister Xiaojiu. I also want to take a good rest and take care of my body, but the tree wants to be quiet and the wind keeps going."
Gu Jiu hesitated for a moment and looked at the eldest wife Xiaowei.
The eldest wife, Xiao Wei, tucked the quilt for Gu Mei, and then said: "You, I told you a long time ago, don't think so much in the confinement. Take care of your body and take care of your body as soon as possible.
You have just given birth to a child, and your body is so weak that you always wonder, can your body get better? If your body is broken, wouldn't it be cheaper for that screwdriver? "
Gu Mei said aggrievedly: "I understand what my mother said. But my daughter just can't help thinking about it, thinking about it over and over again."
Gu Jiu tried to ask, "Is sister Mei worried about anything?"
Gu Mei was silent.
The eldest wife Xiao Wei sighed, "Your sister Mei gave birth to a girl, and someone in Daihou Mansion secretly talked about gossip, and it reached your sister Mei's ears.
No, she thinks about it all day long, making trouble for herself.
I have persuaded her, Daihou Mansion is not a shallow-eyed family, and will not do anything just because you gave birth to a girl.
On the contrary, if you don't have a good body, and you can't have a second child within three to five years, Daihou's Mansion might really give the son a good concubine. "
Gu Mei's eyes reddened immediately, "Stop mother, I know it's all mine."
"You kid, why are you crying again? You can't cry during the confinement period, or you can't cry, how many times I have told you. Be careful that your eyes are broken by crying." The eldest lady, Xiao Wei, was in a hurry.
Gu Jiu also persuaded: "Sister Mei, you really think too much. When I came, I looked at Daihou Mansion and was beaming up and down. Everyone was very happy. No one made irresponsible remarks that it is not good for you to have a girl. .
Sister Mei, I know that after giving birth, my mood fluctuates a lot, and it's easy to get stuck. But I still hope that Sister Mei can think about it as much as possible, think about more happy things, and regulate her emotions.
If you have any grievances and difficulties, talk to the son. Let him share the burden for you. You must not bear it alone, it is too hard. "
"Xiao Jiu is right, think about something happy. It's a good thing to have a girl, as the saying goes, it will bloom first and then bear fruit. The second child must be a brother."
Gu Mei wiped her tears and nodded, "I know, I will try to drive a little bit. Sister Xiao Jiu, do you think my body is recovering well?"
Gu Jiu pulled her wrist and said with a smile: "Listen to the imperial doctor's words, take good care of her, and her body will be well soon."
Gu Mei nodded.
At this time, the nurse came in holding the baby.
Gu Mei instantly became happy, "Sister Xiao Jiu, look at my girl, the more you look, the better."
Gu Jiu tried to hug the child, trembling with hands and feet, and sweating profusely.
Gu Mei laughed, pointed at Gu Jiu, and said, "So there are things Xiao Jiu can't do."
After she finished speaking, she took the child from Gu Jiu's hand skillfully and softly put it to sleep.
Seeing the maternity exuding from Gu Mei, Gu Jiu was stunned for a moment.
I thought, a woman will definitely change after she has a baby.
In the future she will also have her own children, I don't know what she will become.
...
After washing three days, a few days later, Gu Jiu sent away King Ning, Pei's, Concubine Shen and Concubine Luo.
They will go to the palace to escape the heat.
Gu Jiu will stay in the palace to look after.
Xiao Qin'er now has a strange taste in her early pregnancy. She wants to eat like this for a while and like that for a while.
The kitchen worked hard and sent it to her, and she said she didn't want to eat it again.
The woman in the kitchen talked a lot of gossip in private.
The matter reached Gu Jiu's ears, and Gu Jiu instructed Madam Fang, "You will take a trip to the kitchen for me and ask everyone to be patient. The fourth wife is now in twins and is in early pregnancy. It is normal for the taste to be a little weird. They will be more patient and things will get better in one or two months."
Madam Fang had a very serious face, "As soon as the princess left, they began to make noises, and they really didn't put the wife in their eyes. The slaves and maids would go and beat them."
Mother Fang beat the woman in the kitchen, and those people really stopped a lot.
Xiao Qin'er was still dissatisfied when she heard about this.
"I just asked the kitchen to cook something to eat, and one by one was impatient. Such a servant should be kicked out. The sister-in-law just sent someone to beat it. It seems that she doesn't care about my body at all. If there are three long and two short births, she is the culprit."
The maid asked for instructions: "Madam, do you want the slaves to take someone to the kitchen to have a fight and beat up all those broken-mouthed women."
Xiao Qin'er hesitated.
Don't look at her mouth, but her heart is clear, knowing that Gu Jiu is not an easy master.
Now that the prince and the princess are not there, if she is bullied by Gu Jiu, there will be no place to complain.
She thought for a while, and said to the maid: "This lady is not the one who screwed up the chicken belly, a little thing, nothing to worry about. But there can be no next time. If I let this lady hear the gossip of the kitchen woman again and arrange me , This lady will not spare them."
"It's still madam generous." The maid took the opportunity to flatter her.
The weather is getting hotter.
Xiao Qin'er was pregnant and was intolerant of heat, so she used a lot of ice cubes every day.
Fortunately, there are enough ice cubes in the palace, so there is no need to worry about running out of ice cubes.
In the afternoon, it is the hottest time of the day.
She fanned her fan and chatted with the maids.
"I knew it was so hot, so I went to the palace to escape the heat with my mother and concubine. I heard that Beimang Mountain is extremely cool, and I have to cover my bedding at night."
The maid gave an idea, "Why don't you write a letter to the princess and the empress, the princess and the empress feel sorry for your wife, and she might send someone to take her to the palace to escape the heat."
Xiao Qin'er pondered for a while, and immediately ordered: "Serve the pen and ink."
The maid was elated.
Xiao Qin'er went to the palace to escape the summer heat, and they, as personal servants, naturally also followed.
Xiao Qin'er wrote a letter and handed it to the Royal Palace Chang Shi, asking Master Chang Shi to send it to the palace.
After that, she waited for news from the palace.
The palace travels to the palace, and a letter is sent every three days.
Three days later, the letter from the palace arrived.
In the letter, Pei first cared about Xiao Qin'er's body and told her to take care of her baby and not to think about it.
Then he said that the palace rules are big and can't walk around at will, which is not suitable for Xiao Qin'er. He also said that the road was bumpy, so Xiao Qin'er was asked to stay in the palace with peace of mind. Don't think about what you don't have, and don't think about going to the palace to escape the heat.
After reading the letter, Xiao Qin'er was so angry that she almost tore it apart.
Seeing her face is bad, the maids dared not speak.
After sulking for a while, Xiao Qin'er asked, "Is there a letter from the lady?"
The maid said in a low voice: "Yes. The lady is now in charge of the inner courtyard. Every three days, the princess will communicate with the lady."
"Do you know what the princess said in the lady's letter?"
The maids shook their heads together, how do they know this.
Xiao Qin'er sat up and said, "Let me see the lady."
...
Gu Jiu bitter summer.
It was extremely hot this summer.
Every day, she was unwilling to move. When she moved, she felt sweat gurgle from her pores and her clothes were soaked.
Because of the hot weather, she did not go to Zongzheng Temple to visit Liu Zhao this month.
Only Bai Zhong and Rong Xin two small yellow gates were sent to Zongzheng Temple for her.
As a result, the two returned and told her that they had not seen Liu Zhao.
She asked, "What's the matter? Is it the people from Zongzheng Temple that wouldn't let you in?"
Bai Zhong said: "When the young man arrived at Zongzheng Temple, he gave him some benefits, saying that he was giving him some food to cool off the heat. As a result, the people at Zongzheng Temple didn't receive the benefits at all and drove the two of us out. We argued with them, they Send someone to beat us."
Gu Jiu wondered, "Why is this? Didn't you find Mr. Chen Chongwei?"
"The little one asked Master Chen. But Master Chen is not in Zongzheng Temple. He said he was going out for business and would not be back for a few months."
Gu Jiu frowned, "What else did the people at Zongzheng Temple say?"
"Just telling us to leave, nothing else."
This is a bad sign. Is it because the emperor ordered that visits are not allowed?
It makes no sense!
Things have passed for many months, and the emperor doesn't need to hold on to the things that happened a few months ago.
She said to both Bai Zhong: "You go down to rest first, and follow me to Zongzheng Temple tomorrow."
At this time, the little maid walked in and reported, "Mrs. Qi, the fourth lady is asking to see you outside."
Gu Jiu glanced out the window, the shining sun was hanging high in the sky.
"In such a hot weather, why did the Fourth Lady come? Isn't she afraid of the heat? Go and invite the Fourth Lady in."
"Slaves obey orders."
Xiao Qin'er was invited into Xiaohua Hall.
She smiled on her face, "Sister-in-law, we haven't seen each other for some days, so I miss you."
Gu Jiu smiled and greeted, "Four younger siblings sit down and talk. What kind of wind is blowing the fourth younger siblings over."
"Hey, it's not God's trouble. The weather is getting hotter day by day, and I am pregnant again. The days are really miserable."
Gu Jiu was inexplicably surprised, "Could it be that who deducted the ice from the four younger siblings?"
Xiao Qin'er waved her hand, "That's not true, there are enough ice cubes. Sister-in-law has misunderstood."
Gu Jiu was relieved, "It's fine if no one is undermining. If someone doesn't know what is good or bad, and dare to be angry with the fourth younger siblings, please tell me, and I will help you."
"My sister-in-law's kindness is appreciated. I happen to have something to ask my sister-in-law here."
Gu Jiu raised her eyebrows and smiled, and she knew that Xiao Qin'er had nothing to do with the Three Treasures.
"Sister, please say. As long as I can help, I will definitely not refuse."
Xiao Qin'er laughed, "Just wait for my sister-in-law. Look at the weather getting hotter, I can't sleep well all night long.
Hearing that the palace was particularly cool, I wondered if I could go to the palace to escape the heat.
However, my mother and concubine felt sorry for me, worried about the bumps on the road, and told me to overcome the difficulties, not to go to the palace, just in case.
What worries the mother and concubine is exactly what I worry about. But I was worried that the hot weather would make me sick and would harm my child.
Sister-in-law, you and your mother and concubine will communicate in a few days. Can you please beg for me, tell the mother and concubine about my situation truthfully, and let the concubine send someone to pick me up to the palace to escape the summer heat? "
It turned out to be this idea.
Gu Jiu smiled clearly.
She took out Pei’s letter, "Today, my mother concubine still tells me in the letter to take care of you, and you are not allowed to be willful. Four younger siblings, your request is helpless for me."
Xiao Qin'er snatched the letter and looked like.
Sure enough, Pei really told Gu Jiu to take good care of her and not allow her to go out.
Xiao Qin'er's face collapsed, obviously very unhappy.
She returned the letter to Gu Jiu, "Sister-in-law can't help me beg for mercy? The weather is so hot, doesn't the sister-in-law want to go to the palace to escape the summer heat?"
Gu Jiu put away the letter, "Four younger siblings, you are now in double body, and you are not full of March, and your fetal image is unstable. You are not afraid of accidents when you go out at this time and the road is bumpy?
If there is a case, can the mother and concubine be happy? Can the fourth son be happy? The weather will not be so hot all the time, and it will definitely rain after a while. It will cool down when it rains. Just be patient. "
Xiao Qin'er was so wronged that she cried and bluffed Gu Jiu.
