Chapter 461 Qingming! (Down)
Prince's residence;
The midwife and the doctor had already entered, and the maid kept passing things back and forth to boil hot water, and everyone was in a panic amidst their busy work.
Because He Sisi's cry in the delivery room has become weaker and weaker.
No one could have imagined that the princess would give birth prematurely, let alone that the situation would become so critical all of a sudden.
The news of the concubine's dystocia was not hidden from anyone, and there was no need to hide it from anyone.
Ji Chengjue ordered Eunuch Zhang to find the He family and his father.
The woman in the delivery room is doing her best for her child, and now it seems that she is likely to risk her life.
At this moment, as a man, Ji Chengjue's mentality changed.
Or in other words,
After all, he is not as cool as his own father,
he thinks,
At this time, her father and brother should also appear here.
Ji Chengjue didn't think about using this method to motivate her, as her husband couldn't do anything here, let alone others.
He just thought that if the worst happened, she wouldn't have any regrets.
You can't blame Ji Lao Liu for thinking in a bad way here, and you can't blame him for making such a plan.
Because he couldn't live in her place,
He can only stand here,
Hearing the screams from inside,
Is it possible that at this time, I can still consider the child's baby name with hope and great anticipation?
Ji Lao Liu is not crazy!
But, he wished he could go crazy;
The education and experience he has received since he was a child has formed an instinct in him, that is, the more important he is, the more peaceful he will be.
It is like a wounded person who cannot faint when he is in pain, but can only bear it soberly.
However, at this time, he was so powerless.
He could only stand there with his hands behind his back and his eyes looking straight ahead.
When the surrounding servants passed by him, they subconsciously lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.
This is the first time they have entered the prince's mansion. In the past, they always came here to deliver some vegetables and meat, and they always asked the imperial guards to turn in at the gate.
Ji Chengjue and He Sisi invited them in several times, but both of them refused, and they refused thoroughly.
It can be said that they are the most low-key royal relatives.
But this time, they were carried in.
After coming in, hearing the commotion inside, and seeing the maids who kept coming in and out carrying hot water and ginseng soup, the two of them understood what happened no matter how confused they were.
Old He Tou clenched his fists tightly,
"Why is it like this, why is it like this!"
He Chu also kept looking around in a daze, his lips trembling.
Ji Chengjue was still standing there with his hands behind his back. At this moment, he was not in the mood to entertain his father-in-law and uncle.
In the delivery room, every time He Sisi screamed was like a heavy hammer hitting his chest, but the more he was like this, the more he couldn't bend down. He hoped that his wife could get through it, and she must get through it.
Old He Tou instinctively wanted to go to his son-in-law to ask about the situation, but seeing his son-in-law's appearance, Old He Tou hesitated for a while, and still didn't dare to go there.
It's not that he's simply afraid, but he also knows in his heart that if he goes up and asks at this moment, it won't be of much help, and it won't help the matter.
However, this is also where he is most aggrieved;
When other father-in-laws encounter this situation, they can unceremoniously step forward to question their son-in-law, or even directly attack the son-in-law, even if they know it will not help, but at least they can vent the unknown anger in their chests go out.
But here he is, he can't do it.
He Chu wanted to help, such as boiling water or handing over things, but the court ladies and eunuchs who came and went were very meticulous in their work, and there was no shortage of manpower, so there was no room for him to intervene.
At this time, there is nothing to do, which is the most painful.
The movement here also alarmed the fourth and fifth children who lived in the prince's mansion together.
The fourth child came over, frowned, and looked at the scene in front of him.
The fifth child was busy with carpentry work just now, and when he heard the report from his servants, there were still wood chips on his head.
The two looked at each other and walked towards Ji Chengjue together.
The fourth child asked, "Sixth child, what's going on?"
Ji Chengjue didn't look back, didn't even look at his two brothers, but calmly uttered a word:
"roll."
The fourth child and the fifth child looked at each other with some embarrassment, and they both backed away silently, stood by the side, and said nothing more.
For one thing, this year, the sixth child who had been suppressed by his father suddenly rose up suddenly, and a big wedding made it clear that he would participate in the seizure of the heir apparent. Walk to recite words.
The queen passed away, and the wedding with the princess also ended without a problem.
To seize the heirloom, before the emperor died and the edict was announced, the so-called seizing the heir is actually seizing power.
Nowadays, it is obvious that the Eastern Palace is weak. The sixth prince is in charge of the household department, and is in charge of the money and food of Dayan. Outside, there are Hirano Boss of Xueguan, and the eldest prince is there to help. , the limelight is in full swing!
The prince also has a food chain. After all, there is only one dragon chair, and you can only sit on it by yourself. If you don't plan to sit on it or feel that you are unlikely to sit on it, then you have to think about it for the future. In the end, even the Xiaoyao clan couldn't maintain it.
Secondly, now that my wife is suffering from dystocia, it is understandable for me to be a little grumpy at this time.
The fifth prince licked his lips and looked around. He was busy making a crib and cradle for the sixth brother's child.
But looking at the situation now, the crib may not be useful.
He didn't care much about the child's safety, but he cared about the painstaking efforts he had put into the crib and cradle, which probably would have been wasted.
After all, ordinary people are not worthy of the prince to give this away. For those who are worth giving away, it will be unlucky for you to give this away.
The fourth prince lowered his head and looked at the ground.
From his point of view, he is somewhat pleased with this situation.
In fact, the boss already had two children, but they were both born to wild slaves, so there was no guarantee of pure bloodlines. After all, when the boss was sleeping in Xueyuan, he couldn't make a living note, so the two children couldn't even have the surname "Ji".
But now the little six sons are in full swing, if he is reborn as the eldest grandson of the emperor, alas...
In fact, after the first failure of the Eastern Expedition and the death of the Patriarch of the Deng family, the fourth prince kept a low profile, but how should I put it, as a prince, who wouldn't want to sit in that position?
Even if he knows that he has no foreign aid and lacks competitiveness, he still doesn't want that position to be confirmed early. At least, he can still have a dream to do when he sleeps at night.
But if you say to leave at this time, it is impossible to leave.
The Tian family is the most ruthless, but the Tian family needs to perform this emotion more than any other family in the world.
Although the two princes have their own thoughts, they can only continue to be mud tires here.
At this time, the eldest prince came.
The eldest prince had been leading troops outside before, helping the household department to clear up the local evils. In fact, it was helping to open up business routes around the country. It was not just bandits that were attacked. It must be over if you don't pick up the lost things on the way, but there are really not many bandits.
Two years ago, when the foreign war was at its most tense, even those who climbed the wall and had an affair would be caught by the government and sent to the front line to serve as prisoners. This bandit has no room to survive. What kind of "village" or "gang" is really going to be used , The local official uniform has long sharpened their knives and rushed to catch you.
What was attacked was actually "official bandits", the remnants of some powerful clans and some new forces that took advantage of the situation to control certain local industries or business routes after the powerful clans were eliminated.
Since the eldest prince married the barbarian princess, his political situation is actually similar to that of the fifth prince of Chu State, Xiong Tingshan, who is now the prince-in-chief.
When a person has no need for political fame, it is much more convenient to do things. Although many officials participated in the performance of the eldest prince and led the army to run amok outside, after seeing the income submitted by the Ministry of Households, Emperor Yan , and suppressed these voices smoothly.
The eldest prince came with the barbarian princess, who was holding a box in her hand.
Ji Wujiang walked up to Ji Chengjue, and did not ask stupidly, "What's wrong?"
Instead, he said directly: "Your sister-in-law brought a snow lotus that she married as a dowry."
Generally, when pregnant women give birth, in order to supplement their physical strength, ordinary people will prepare some brown sugar water, while wealthy people will prepare ginseng soup.
Ji Chengjue nodded, but didn't speak.
his home,
There is no shortage of this.
The eldest prince took a few steps back slowly, and stood with his wife. Then, he glanced at the fourth and fifth children standing there.
Seeing this, the fourth child and the fifth child came together and said in a low voice:
"Brother, sister-in-law."
"Brother, sister-in-law."
The barbarian princess gave a little blessing to the two princes. She has been in Yan for a long time, and she is familiar with the etiquette of Yan.
"His Royal Highness is here!"
The fourth child, fifth child and the eldest prince were all a little surprised, what is the prince doing here now.
The prince is here
He looks a lot thinner.
After he came in, he just glanced at the brothers, he didn't come over, let alone approach Ji Chengjue, he just stood silently on the outside, just stood there.
Ji Chengjue didn't go to greet the prince either.
After a while, Li Yinglian, the prince's companion, came over, holding a box with a fish-shaped jade inside.
This jade is a piece of protective jade prepared by the grandpa in the palace for the prince when he was canonized, which can ward off disasters and disasters.
Because the grandpa in the palace had been disbanded on Tianhu Mountain, this jade became an orphan.
Ji Chengjue looked at the jade, stretched out his hand to signal a court lady to come over, took the jade to the delivery room, and placed it under the bed.
Subsequently,
Ji Chengjue turned around, and bowed to the prince who was standing outside.
The prince didn't return the salute, but just sat down on the steps of the inner door, with his hands down and his head down.
at this time,
"His Majesty is here!"
The prince who just sat down didn't move, as if he was asleep, still maintaining that position.
And the boss, the fourth, the fifth, etc. all knelt down:
"My son, see the father!"
"My son, see the father!"
Yanhuang walked in, he didn't seem to notice the crown prince sitting in the corner, or he seemed to notice but didn't even bother to take a look, walked straight in front of Ji Chengjue, and waved his hands at the same time to signal them to get up.
Ji Chengjue didn't kneel, he was still standing there, at the same time, he waved his hands behind his back.
All of a sudden, the big offerings and guards that belonged to the Sixth Prince borrowed from the major bodyguards inside and outside the courtyard were all withdrawn, and replaced by the secret spy masters brought by Wei Zhonghe to re-arm the place.
Emperor Yan didn't care about the sixth prince's ignorance of etiquette, and asked directly:
"Who did it?"
three words,
directly asked,
With a kind of aura that belongs to the Ninth Five-Year Lord!
Emperors are suspicious, and the first reaction when encountering things is always: Who is calculating me? Who is plotting?
That's what it means to be alone.
Most importantly, Emperor Yan didn't think that his son would not know how to take care of his pregnant daughter-in-law,
If it weren't for someone with a heart who took the opportunity to start,
It can't really be purely bad luck, right?
After asking these three words,
Yanhuang's eyes swept to the fourth and fifth children standing beside them.
"..." Fourth Prince.
"..." Fifth Prince.
These two princes live together in the prince's mansion, if they want to attack, it is undoubtedly the most convenient.
But after seeing their father's gaze, the two princes almost knelt down and cried out for injustice.
God,
father,
Do you know how many experts the Sixth Brother has placed in the prince's mansion in the past six months?
On the bright side, there are three fourth-rank masters alone!
Three, Father!
Do you know how frightened we brothers are living in the prince's mansion now!
If the sixth brother suddenly loses his nerve and wants to mess with Qing Jun, our two brothers who live with him will definitely be "clicked" first and second!
Ji Chengjue shook his head and said:
"My son's life is not good."
Ji Chengjue replied like this.
Except for being threatened by Uncle Qi and Li Liangshen sent by the lunatic of the princess on the night of the wedding, after that, Ji Chengjue unceremoniously mobilized his power. , and it is the kind of big offering at the bottom of the box. These offerings are not hired through money, but through debt of favor to let him do things for you.
It can be said that one time is used less once.
But even so, Ji Chengjue borrowed it, and there are three fourth-rank masters!
There are also a few other masters who are not of high grade but have rich means and experience. They are also protecting this place in the dark all the time, protecting their wives and the unborn children in their wives.
It can be said that Ji Chengjue will not be afraid even if the princess wants to go crazy again unless the Forbidden Army in Beijing is mobilized to attack the prince's mansion.
In addition, Ji Chengjue has also been extremely meticulous in terms of food and clothing.
Therefore, he can rule out the possibility of artificial attack.
can only say,
this time,
It's God's will
It was him, Ji Chengjue, whose fate was not good, and his fate should have been such a catastrophe!
This,
And the most depressing,
Because if the worst happens, your anger and unwillingness will not even have a channel to vent!
Sky,
At this time, it became gloomy again. It was clear and rainy, and the silky rain, not only did not quench the anger entrenched in the yard at this time, but made people feel more irritable.
Emperor Yan stood with his hands behind his back,
what he looks like now
It was exactly the same as when Ji Chengjue was standing here alone.
As an emperor, he has many things to think about, but there is one hurdle that he cannot avoid, and that is inheritance.
He, Ji Runhao, has seven sons.
When selecting a successor, there is no doubt that there is much room for choice.
Although there is an eldest son system here, but now that the family of Dayan has been wiped out by him, how can an eldest son system be able to trap this emperor?
Either he wants to or doesn't want to.
Moreover, in addition to the choice of successors, there is another point, that is, if the population is thin and something happens, it will either cause the state affairs to be in chaos, or it will cause the dragon chair inheritance to be withdrawn from its own lineage. Transfer to another channel.
It seems that they are all surnamed Ji, but the brothers are still clear about the accounts. The direct line is the direct line, and the direct line can ensure the next generation, and the next generation, the direct line is all in themselves.
And once the collateral line gains power, your lineage will be completely out of touch with the power center from now on, and you will even suffer even more severe suppression, even the most basic inheritance may cut you off.
This is not alarmist talk. The Emperor Taizong of the Qian Kingdom is the younger brother of the Emperor Taizu. He succeeded to the throne as the emperor's younger brother. Pass the throne back.
Then, Emperor Taizu's son and two concubines "died of illness", and even his grandson either died young or became demented. In the end, the inheritance of the throne of the Qian Kingdom has always followed the line of Emperor Taizong.
As for the lineage of the Emperor Taizu, now he can only rely on the help of his stepchildren in the past to serve as a front for blood.
For Yanhuang,
The children born to the boss's savage women, on the one hand, are obviously different from the Yan people in appearance, and on the other hand, God knows whether their blood is really pure.
The emperor is ruthless, he will not waste his own little feelings on a child who may not be his grandson.
so,
From Yan Huang's point of view, from the point of view of the current ruling and opposition parties,
The child in He Sisi's womb,
If it is a boy,
That is the grandson of the emperor!
This is the first of his grandchildren, and Yan Huang didn't want any accidents.
Come in with Emperor Yan, there are also a group of imperial physicians.
But in fact, the famous doctor in the delivery room has already been prepared.
The best doctor, the best midwife, the best medicinal materials, and even some tools for blessing are all available.
What Ji Chengjue could think of was done ahead of time.
And at this time,
The highly respected Doctor Sun in Tai Hospital ran out of the delivery room,
knelt down,
road:
"Your Majesty, Your Highness Sixth, I deserve to die, I am guilty, but I will definitely do my best to keep my little master safe!"
Among the folks, it is not easy to marry a wife. When encountering this situation, they will ask to protect the elder and younger.
But in Royal...
The bloodline of the emperor's heir is extremely important.
If it was a concubine with a special status, she might ask, but in the eyes of Imperial Physician Sun, He Sisi, a woman from a butcher's family, was obviously not as important as an imperial heir.
The question of protecting the big and the young is something that ordinary folk doctors or midwives will not ask unless they have to. They are not allowed to trouble you in the future and tell you right and wrong. In the royal family, you can't ask, otherwise it will be a difficult problem. Throw it to Your Majesty and Sixth Highness.
This is a general report, which means that judging from the current situation, it is very difficult for adults and children to take care together, so I choose to take care of children.
Emperor Yan nodded slightly.
In the eyes of Emperor Yan, his eldest grandson is undoubtedly the most important, and there is almost no need to hesitate or think about it.
Physician Sun kowtowed, got up, and prepared to go back to the delivery room.
at this time,
Ji Chengjue, who was already red-eyed, suddenly said:
"I want my wife to live!"
Physician Sun trembled and stopped walking.
Standing on the side, the fourth and fifth children also raised their heads abruptly, looking at their sixth child.
Even the prince, who was sitting on the threshold of the inner door and almost "hidden" himself, raised his head at this time.
This Ji Lao Liu,
Are you crazy?
Yan Huang's eyes suddenly fell on Ji Chengjue,
with a wave.
Physician Sun immediately bowed to the order.
However,
Ji Chengjue suddenly shouted:
"If my daughter-in-law dies, you, you, you, all the people from the Taiyuan Hospital present, those who participated in the delivery, I will not let anyone go!"
As the son of Emperor Yan,
Ji Chengjue knew clearly,
He doesn't have the right to change his father's will,
All he can do is to threaten these people who follow orders.
He's crazy,
He knew he was crazy,
He naturally knows best what it means for the eldest grandson of the emperor to be his own son, which means that his son will likely be valued by his father, and will even be brought up by his father.
Father Huang has long been disinterested in these older children, so he is more patient with Xiao Qishi, because Xiao Qi is still young, and Yan Huang can get some "fatherly love" feeling from him.
As the so-called next-generation relative, will his first grandson feel different?
Will he show more grandpa's kindness when treating him?
Will he value his son more because of this grandson?
An emperor's eldest grandson can play an incomparably helpful role in seizing the heir.
Ji Chengjue knew all of this.
even,
Before today, he had already planned many scenes in his mind about how his son would tease his father and fight for his favor in the future.
In fact, not only mothers are more expensive than children, but also fathers!
even,
Even before today,
If someone came to ask Ji Chengjue this question, if this happened, would he keep the big one or the young one?
Ji Chengjue felt that he would probably drink a glass of wine, his eyes turned red, and said, "Baoxiao."
Then,
Then, with a slight drunkenness, showing pain, he said to his dead wife: I will take good care of our child and give her the best.
To counteract the guilt in my heart.
Among the seven princes of Emperor Yan,
The one who is most like my father is actually Ji Laoliu!
He can endure hibernation for so many years, he can go to his mother's grave and fake cry, he can endure what ordinary people can't, and he can do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.
He has all the qualifications of a hero, whether it is temperament or ability.
He felt that he was like this, and he felt that he should be like this.
He can have a thousand reasons to comfort himself,
No,
Even if it is to endure a little suffering of conscience, what is it?
but,
but,
but,
But that's where it happens,
After He Sisi entered the delivery room,
Ji Chengjue,
I have been standing outside the delivery room for more than half a day.
He clearly heard the screams from his wife in the delivery room, the heart-wrenching screams.
He was very distressed, very very distressed.
This butcher girl from Nan'an County, because of what she said that night, put a hairpin on her neck and forcibly entered her house when her father and brother stopped her.
Without the order of her parents, without the words of a matchmaker, she gave her clean body to herself.
Later, she joked that she was just coveting his masculinity at the time and didn't think too much about it.
Standing outside the delivery room, under the screams from his wife, for some reason, Ji Chengjue hated his unborn child more and more.
Yes, abominations.
It was him who made his wife suffer such great pain.
Ji Chengjue's mind is in a mess now, he has no way to think carefully, he can only rely on, rely on his own instinct to do things.
He didn't want to lose this woman, and he didn't want to lose her. If the child is gone, he can have another one in the future. If she is gone, he will be gone.
For the child he has never met, Ji Chengjue showed the greatest cold-bloodedness.
Since you haven't opened your eyes and seen the world, then just pretend that you... don't exist.
Everyone present was shocked by Ji Lao Liu's sudden madness.
include,
Emperor Yan.
"Ji Chengjue, you..."
Emperor Yan hadn't finished speaking,
Old He Tou on the side suddenly yelled: "My daughter, please protect my daughter, my daughter!!!!!!!!!"
"My sister, my sister can't do anything, protect my sister!!!!!!!"
When the Imperial Physician Sun came out, the He family and his father did not understand the meaning of the words. They thought it was just the Imperial Physician who came out to report on a routine basis.
It wasn't until they heard Ji Chengjue's roar that the He family and his father realized what they were going to do!
At this moment,
The most low-key relatives of the emperor broke out, and the two of them yelled directly. If the guards next to them didn't stop them directly, they might have rushed directly in front of Emperor Yan. That's it, they were still pushing and shoving to stop Looking at his guards, especially He Chu, as a pig killer, although he doesn't know martial arts, he has a lot of strength, and two guards can barely suppress him.
Emperor Yan ignored the He family and his father,
He just stared at his son with a very calm gaze,
In this gaze, there is also an emotion called disappointment.
Because he felt that it was an unforgivable mistake for his son to lose the benevolence of a woman at this time.
Ji Chengjue obviously understood the meaning in his father's gaze, but he did not back down, but looked at his father's gaze.
"I want my grandson."
he is the emperor,
He proclaims the Constitution of Heaven,
under his will,
Tian Wujing had to go to the snowfield to drive out the savages, and Li Liangting had to return to Beifeng County to continue guarding the savages.
He said to fight, so he had to fight, and he said to make peace, and only the officials of the Gan state and the regent of the state of Chu could make peace.
now,
at the moment,
Now,
he,
I just want my grandson!
Ji Chengjue's chest heaved for a while, and for the first time, he showed a ferocious face to his father.
He hated this face, this face of his father.
at the same time,
For some reason, in the depths of my heart, I suddenly remembered the moment when I secretly bribed the eunuch and ran into the cold palace where my mother and concubine was, and opened the door.
What he saw was,
The figure of the mother and concubine hanging on the beam.
now,
here he is again
He showed up at his home,
He once decided the fate of his mother and concubine without asking himself.
now,
He still decides his wife's fate without asking himself.
Ji Chengjue stretched out his hand,
pointing to the delivery room,
Staring at his father, staring at the Ninth Five-Year Lord of the Great Swallow,
Word by word:
"I, want, my, daughter-in-law!"
no one could have predicted,
currently,
A confrontation between monarch and minister, between father and son,
Unexpectedly, in this clear drizzle, in such an extremely sudden way... unfolded.
And at this moment,
"Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!!!!!!"
A baby's crisp cry,
It broke the almost stagnant atmosphere in the courtyard at this time.
A female medical officer with blood on her clothes ran out,
kneeling on the ground,
Weeping and laughing, he shouted:
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, the emperor's grandson, congratulations to the Sixth Highness, mother and child are safe!"
At this moment, the He family and his father breathed a sigh of relief, no longer struggled with the guards around them, and couldn't help muttering: "God bless, God bless."
At this time,
Wei Zhonghe knelt down directly,
"My servant congratulates Your Majesty, happy to have the grandson of the emperor, God bless my emperor, Yan Wannian!"
All around, all the guarding ladies and eunuchs knelt down and shouted:
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, happy to have a grandson!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty, happy to have a grandson!"
The fourth prince, the fifth prince, the eldest prince, the eldest concubine, and the crown prince sitting in the corner all knelt down at this moment:
"My son congratulates the emperor, happy to have a grandson!"
"My son congratulates the emperor, happy to have a grandson!"
Emperor Yan was unmoved,
Continue to stare at his sixth son.
Ji Chengjue, after the female officer said "mother and child are safe",
The whole person seems to have been sucked out of all energy,
He just sat down on the floor tiles that had been wet by raindrops,
he looked up,
open mouth,
eyes a little dazed,
Panting heavily, I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
Throughout the prince's mansion,
All kneel down on the ground,
Only Emperor Yan stood there alone,
And this clear rain,
down all the time.
