Prince's Residence;
The midwife and doctor have already entered, and the maids are constantly passing things back and forth to heat hot water. Everyone is busy with a sense of panic.
Because He Sisi’s screams in the delivery room were getting weaker and weaker.
No one could have imagined that the princess would give birth prematurely, let alone that the situation would suddenly become so critical.
The news that the princess had a difficult childbirth was not hidden from anyone, and there was no need to hide it from anyone.
Ji Chengjue ordered Eunuch Zhang to find Mr. He and his wife.
The woman in the delivery room is doing her best for her child, and now it seems that it may cost her her life.
At this moment, as a man, Ji Chengjue's mentality has undergone some changes.
In other words,
After all, he is not as cool as his biological father,
He feels,
At this time, her father and brother should also appear here.
Ji Chengjue didn't think of using this method to motivate him. He, the husband, couldn't do anything to motivate him here, let alone others.
He just thought that if the worst happened, she would not have any regrets.
You can’t blame Ji Laoliu for thinking the worst here, nor can you blame him harshly for making such a plan,
Because he can’t give birth to her on her behalf,
p>
He can only stand here,
Listening to the screams coming from inside,
Is it possible that he can still go there with full of hope, enthusiasm and expectation at this time? Considering your child's nickname?
Ji Laoliu is not crazy!
However, he hopes that he can go crazy;
The education he has received since childhood and the experiences he has endured have made him develop an instinct, that is, to go crazy. When facing big events, you will feel more at peace.
Just like an injured person who is in pain, he cannot faint and can only bear it clearly.
However, at this time, I 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 lowered their heads subconsciously and did not dare to look at him.
Here comes the He family. 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 at the gate to turn in.
Ji Chengjue and He Sisi invited them in several times, but they both refused, and they refused completely.
It can be said that they are the most low-key relatives of the emperor.
But this time, they were carried in.
After coming in, they heard the noise inside and looked at the palace maids who were carrying hot water and ginseng soup. No matter how confused they were, they understood what was going on.
Lao Hetou clenched his fists fiercely,
"Why is it like this, why is it like this!"
He Chu also kept looking around in confusion, his lips trembling.
Ji Chengjue was still standing there with his hands folded. At this time, he had no intention of entertaining his father-in-law and uncle.
In the delivery room, every scream from He Sisi was like a heavy hammer hitting his chest. But the more this happened, the less he could bend down. He hoped that his wife could survive it. , we must get through it.
Lao Hetou instinctively wanted to go to his son-in-law to ask about the situation, but when he saw his son-in-law's appearance, Lao Hetou hesitated and still did not dare to go.
It's not that he is simply afraid, but he also knows in his heart that if he goes up to ask now, he won't be able to help, and it won't help.
However, this is where he feels most aggrieved;
When other father-in-laws encounter this situation, they can come forward to question their son-in-law without politeness, or even directly Even if he knew it would be useless to retaliate against his son-in-law, he could at least vent the unknown fire in his chest.
But here, he can’t do it.
He Chu wanted to help, such as boiling water or delivering things, but the palace maids 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.
It is the most painful moment when there is nothing to do.
The movement here also alarmed the fourth and fifth children who lived together in the prince's residence.
The fourth child came over and frowned, looking at the scene in front of him.
Lao Wu was busy with carpentry work just now. When he heard the report from his servant, there were still wood chips on his head.
The two looked at each other and walked towards Ji Chengjue together.
The fourth child asked: "Lao Liu, what's going on?"
Ji Chengjue didn't look back, didn't even look at his two brothers, he just spoke out calmly One word:
"Get out."
The fourth and fifth children looked at each other awkwardly, and both of them retreated silently, standing on the side without speaking again.
First of all, this year, Lao Liu, who had been suppressed miserably by his father, suddenly rose to prominence. A big wedding made it clear that he would participate in the fight for the heir, and the prince This year, I have been memorizing words continuously.
The queen passed away, and her wedding to the princess also ended without a problem.
To seize the direct descendants, before the emperor dies and the edict is announced, the so-called seizing the direct descendants actually means seizing power.
Nowadays, it is obvious that the East Palace is weak. The sixth prince is in charge of the household department and is in charge of Dayan's money and food. Outside, there is the support of Uncle Hirano of Xue Customs, and there is also the eldest prince as support, and there are a group of new scholars inside. It has become a climate, and it is obvious that it is in full swing!
The prince also has a food chain. After all, there is only one dragon chair, and only one person can sit on it. If you don’t plan to sit on it or think it is unlikely that you will sit on it, then you must do it. Think about it in the future, don't even end up being unable to maintain a happy clan.
TwoCome on, my wife is having a difficult childbirth right now, so it’s understandable that I might be a bit grumpy at this time.
The prince licked his lips and looked around. He was currently busy making a crib and cradle for his sixth brother's child.
But looking at the situation now, this crib may not be useful.
He didn't care much about the child's safety, but he cared about the fact that all the hard work he had put into the crib and cradle would probably be in vain.
After all, ordinary people are not worthy of the prince giving this to someone who is worthy of giving it. It would be unlucky for you to give this to someone who is worthy of giving it.
The fourth prince lowered his head and looked at the ground.
From his standpoint, he is somewhat happy to see this situation.
The eldest child actually has two children, but they were both born from savage female slaves. There is no guarantee of pure blood. After all, the eldest child was unable to take care of himself when he was laid to bed in the snowy field. Therefore, the two children even The surname cannot be "Ji".
Now that Xiao Liuzi is in full swing, if he is the eldest grandson of the emperor again, alas...
In fact, after the initial failure of the last Eastern Expedition and the death of the head of the Deng family, The fourth prince is much more low-key, but as a prince, who doesn't want to sit in that position?
Even if I know that I have no foreign aid now and am not competitive enough, I don’t want that position to be nailed down early. At least, I can still have a dream to do it when I go to bed at night.
But if you say you want to leave at this time, it is impossible for you 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 muddy here.
At this time, the eldest prince arrived.
The eldest prince has been leading troops outside to help the Ministry of Households clear out the local remnants. In fact, he is helping to open up trade routes in various places. It is not just bandits that he has attacked. In fact, within the territory of Dayan, not to mention Jin. , in the pure territory of Yan State, it is definitely an exaggeration to say that people do not pick up things on the road, but there are really not many bandits.
When the foreign war was the most intense in the past two years, even those who climbed the walls to have affairs would be caught by the government and sent to the front line as prisoners. This bandit had no room to survive. What kind of "stronghold" were really going to be built? "What kind of "gang" banner, the local officials have already been sharpening their knives to catch young men from you.
What they are attacking are actually "official bandits", the remnants of some clans and some new forces that take advantage of the opportunity to control certain local industries or business routes after the clans are eliminated.
After the eldest prince married a barbarian princess, his political situation was actually similar to that of the fifth prince of Chu State and his current betrothed prince, Xiong Tingshan.
When a person no longer has the need for political reputation, it becomes much easier to do things. Although many officials participated in the eldest prince and led the troops to run rampant outside, Emperor Yan watched After the Ministry of Revenue presented the income, these voices were suppressed.
The eldest prince came with the barbarian princess.Holding a box in hand.
Ji Wujiang walked up to Ji Chengjue and didn’t ask stupidly, “What’s wrong?”
Instead, he said directly: “Your sister-in-law brought a snow lotus that she was given as a dowry. . ”
In order to replenish the pregnant woman’s strength when giving birth, ordinary families will prepare some brown sugar water, while wealthy families will prepare ginseng soup.
Ji Chengjue nodded but said nothing.
His family,
does not lack this.
The eldest prince slowly took a few steps back and stood with his wife. Then, he glanced at the fourth and fifth sons standing there.
Seeing this, the fourth and fifth children came together and whispered:
"Brother, sister-in-law."
"Brother, sister-in-law."< /p>
The barbarian princess was slightly blessed by the two princes. She had been in Yan for a long time and was familiar with the etiquette of Yan.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"
The fourth child, the fifth child and the eldest prince were all a little surprised. What was the prince doing here now?
The prince is here,
He looks a lot thinner.
After he came in, his eyes just glanced at the brothers. He didn't come over or get close to Ji Chengjue. He just stood silently on the outside.
Ji Chengjue didn’t go to greet the prince either.
After a while, Li Yinglian, the prince's companion, came over, holding a box in his hand, which contained a fish-shaped jade.
This jade is a piece of protective jade prepared by the prince in the palace when the prince was canonized. It can ward off disasters.
Because the palace prince had retreated on Tianhu Mountain, this jade became an only copy.
Ji Chengjue looked at the jade, stretched out his hand to signal a palace maid to come over, took the jade into the delivery room, and placed it under the bed.
Then,
Ji Chengjue turned around and bowed to the prince standing outside.
The prince did not return the greeting, but sat down on the steps of the inner door, with his hands hanging down and his head lowered.
At this moment,
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
The prince who had just sat down did not move, as if he was asleep, still maintaining the posture.
The boss, the fourth and the fifth all knelt down and said:
"My son, I will see my father!"
"My son, I will see my father!"
Emperor Yan walked in. He didn’t seem to notice the prince sitting in the corner, or he seemed to notice but didn’t even bother to take a second look. He walked straight to Ji Chengjue and waved at the same time. Signaling them to stand up.
Ji Chengjue did not kneel, he was still standing there, and at the same time, he waved his hand behind his back.
For a time, all the large sacrifices and guards that the Sixth Prince had borrowed from various escort agencies that were inside and outside the courtyard were withdrawn, and were replaced by the masters of the Secret Service brought by Wei Zhonghe. Rearm this place.
The Emperor Yan did not care about the ignorance of the Sixth Prince.As a matter of etiquette, I asked directly:
"Who did it?"
Three words,
I asked directly,
With a kind of aura that belongs to the Nine-Five Masters!
Emperors are suspicious, and their first reaction when encountering something is always: Who is plotting against me? Who is up to no good?
That’s what it means to be alone.
The most important thing is that Emperor Yan does not think that his son will not know how to take care of his pregnant wife.
If someone does not take advantage of the opportunity,
< p>It can’t really be just bad luck, right?After asking these three words,
Yanhuang glanced at Lao Si and Lao Wu standing beside him.
"..." The fourth prince.
“…” The fifth prince.
The two princes themselves live together in the prince's mansion. If they want to take action, it is undoubtedly the most convenient.
But after seeing the look in their father's eyes, the two princes almost knelt down and complained.
Oh my god,
Father,
Do you know how many experts the sixth brother has placed in this prince's mansion in the past six months?
On the surface, there are three fourth-grade masters alone!
Three, Father!
Do you know how frightened we two brothers are now living in the prince's mansion?
If the sixth brother suddenly gets nervous and wants to cheat on him, the two brothers who live with him will definitely be the first to be "clicked" and the 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, who were sent by the madman from the princess on the night of their wedding, after that, Ji Chengjue unceremoniously mobilized his power and got into the hands of several big escort agencies. They all have real masters, and they are the kind of big, low-priced priests. These priests are not hired through money, but through debts of favor to get them to do things for you.
It can be said that use it once and less once.
But despite this, Ji Chengjue still borrowed them. There are three fourth-level masters!
There are also several other experts who are not of high rank but have rich skills and experience. They are also protecting this place in the shadows at all times, protecting their wives and the unborn children in their wives' bellies.
It can be said that unless the Forbidden Army in Beijing is mobilized to attack the prince's residence, Ji Chengjue will not be afraid even if the princess wants to go crazy again.
In addition, Ji Chengjue is also extremely meticulous in terms of food and clothing.
So, he can rule out the possibility of artificial attack.
I can only say,
What happened this time was
God’s will.
It was Ji Chengjue’s bad fate. This calamity is what it deserves!
And this,
It is also the most depressing,
Because if the worst happens, your anger and unwillingness will not even have a channel to vent!
The sky,
at this time, became gloomy again. It was rainy during the Qingming Festival, and the soft drizzle did not extinguish the anger lingering in the yard at this time. Makes you feel more irritable.
Emperor Yan stood with his hands behind his back.
His current appearance
was exactly the same as when Ji Chengjue stood here alone before.
As an emperor, he has many things to think about, but there is one obstacle that he cannot avoid, and that is inheritance.
He, Ji Runhao, has seven sons.
When selecting a successor, the choice space can undoubtedly be much wider.
Although there is a system of eldest son here, but now that the Yan family has been wiped out by him, how can a system of eldest son trap this emperor?
It’s just that he thinks about it or doesn’t want to.
Furthermore, in addition to the choice of successor, there is another point, that is, if the population is thin and something unexpected happens, it will either cause chaos in the country's affairs, or it will cause the inheritance of the dragon throne. He was transferred from his own lineage to another lineage.
It seems that they all have the surname Ji, but the brothers are still settling accounts. The direct line is the direct line, and the direct line can ensure that the next generation, and the next generation, will all have the direct line within themselves.
Once the collateral lineage gains power, your lineage will be completely cut off from the center of power. You will even suffer more severe suppression, and even the most basic inheritance may be cut off from you. .
This is not alarmist. Emperor Taizong of the Qian Kingdom was the younger brother of the Emperor Taizu. The younger son will be the prince, and he will pass the throne back later.
Then, Emperor Taizu’s legitimate son and two concubines “died” of illness, and even his grandsons either died young or suffered from dementia. Finally, the inheritance of the throne of Qian Kingdom has always been in the lineage of Emperor Taizong. .
As for the lineage of Emperor Taizu, now they can only rely on their adopted descendants to help fill up the facade and provide blood and food.
For Emperor Yan,
The children born to the eldest son’s barbarian women are obviously different from the Yan people in appearance. Secondly, God knows whether their bloodline is Really innocent.
The emperor is ruthless, and he will not waste his limited feelings on children who may not be his grandchildren.
So,
In the eyes of Emperor Yan, and in the eyes of the current government and the public,
The child in He Sisi’s belly,
If it’s a boy,
it’s the emperor’s eldest grandson!
This is the first of his grandchildren, and Emperor Yan doesn’t want any accidents to happen.
A group of imperial doctors came in with Emperor Yan.
But in fact, the famous doctors in the delivery room have already prepared.
There is no shortage of the best doctors, the best midwives, the best medicinal materials, and even some tools for blessing.
Ji Chengjue has done everything he can think of in advance.
At this time,
The highly respected Dr. Sun in the Imperial Hospital ran out of the delivery room,
knelt down,
Dao:
"Your Majesty, Your Highness Sixth, I deserve to die and I am guilty, but I will do my best to keep my little master safe!"
It is not easy to marry a wife among the people. In this case, we will ask about the big and small children.
But in the royal family...
The bloodline of the emperor is extremely important.
If she 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 elder and the child is something that even ordinary folk doctors or midwives would not ask unless it was absolutely necessary. It is impossible to guarantee that others will come to trouble you in the future and tell you right and wrong, but in the royal family, this is even more impossible. Ask, otherwise we will leave the problem to His Majesty and His Highness the Sixth Prince.
This is a warning, which means that according to the current situation, it is difficult to insure both adults and children, so I choose to insure the children.
The Emperor Yan nodded slightly.
In the eyes of Emperor Yan, his eldest grandson is undoubtedly the most important. This requires almost no hesitation or thinking.
Doctor Sun kowtowed, stood up, and prepared to return to the delivery room.
At this moment,
Ji Chengjue, who was already red-eyed, suddenly said:
"I want my wife to live!"
Doctor Sun trembled and stopped.
On one side, the fourth and fifth boys standing there suddenly raised their heads and looked at their sixth child.
Even the prince, who was sitting on the threshold of the inner door and almost "hiding" himself, raised his head at this time.
This Ji Laoliu,
Are you crazy!
Emperor Yan’s eyes suddenly fell on Ji Chengjue and he waved his hand.
Doctor Sun immediately bowed and responded to the order.
However,
Ji Chengjue suddenly yelled:
"If my wife dies, you, you, you, all of us from Taipei Hospital are here. , I will not let anyone participate in the delivery!"
As the son of Emperor Yan, Ji Chengjue knows very well,
He doesn't have that! If he is not qualified to change his father's will,
all he can do is threaten these people who are doing things according to his orders.
He is crazy,
He knows that he is crazy,
He naturally knows best what it means for the emperor’s eldest grandson to be his son, and what it means for him This son is likely to be valued by his father, and may even be taken around to be cultivated by his father.
My father has long been disinterested in these older children, so he is more patient with Xiao Qishi.Because Xiao Qi is still young, Emperor Yan can still get some feelings of "fatherly love" from him.
As the saying goes, kissing another generation, will his first grandson feel different?
Will you show more grandfatherly kindness when you treat him?
Will he value his son more because of his grandson?
An emperor's eldest grandson can play an extremely helpful role in seizing the legitimate son.
Ji Chengjue knows all this.
Even,
Before today, he had planned many scenes in his mind of how his son would tease his father and compete for his favor.
In fact, not only is the mother more valuable than the son, but the father is also worthy!
Even,
Even before today,
If someone comes to ask Ji Chengjue this question, if this happens, should we protect the elder or the younger? ?
Ji Chengjue thought that he would probably drink a glass of wine, his eyes would turn red, and he said: "Keep me safe."
Then,
with the help of a smile, Drunk and showing pain, he said to his late wife: I will take good care of our children and give her the best.
Use this to offset your inner guilt.
Among the seven princes of Emperor Yan,
the one who loves his father the most is actually Ji Laoliu!
He can bear to lie dormant for so many years, he can go to his mother's grave and fake cry, he can endure what ordinary people cannot endure, and he can do whatever it takes to achieve the goal.
He has all the qualifications of a hero, both in temperament and ability.
He feels that he is like this, and he also feels that he should be like this.
He can have ten thousand reasons to comfort himself,
No,
Even if he endures a little torture of conscience, what does it mean?
But,
But,
But,
But the problem lies in,
He Sisi After entering the delivery room,
Ji Chengjue,
has 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 against her neck and forced her to enter her house after her father and brother stopped her.
Without the orders of her parents or the words of a matchmaker, she gave her clean body to herself.
Later, she joked that she was just coveting his male lust and didn’t think much about it.
Standing outside the delivery room, under the screams from his wife, for some reason, Ji Chengjue felt more and more disgusted with his unborn child.
Yes, hate.
It was him who made his wife endure such tremendous pain.
Ji Chengjue's mind is very confused now. He can no longer think carefully. He can only rely on his own instinct to do things.
He doesn’t want to lose this woman, he doesn’t want to lose her. If the child is gone, he can have it again in the future. If she is gone, it is gone.
Ji Chengjue showed the greatest cold-bloodedness towards the child he had never met.
Since you haven’t opened your eyes to see this world, just pretend that you... don’t exist.
Everyone present was shocked by Ji Laoliu's sudden madness.
Including,
Yan Huang.
"Ji Chengjue, you..."
Before Emperor Yan finished speaking,
Lao Hetou on the side suddenly shouted: "My daughter, protect my daughter, my daughter!!!!!!!!!"
"My sister, nothing can happen to my sister, protect my sister!!!!!!"
The He family's father and son did not understand the meaning of the words when Imperial Physician Sun came out. They thought it was just the Imperial Physician who came out to make a routine announcement.
It wasn’t until they heard Ji Chengjue’s roar that the He family and his father understood what they were trying to do!
At this time,
the most low-key royal relatives broke out, and the two of them started shouting. If the guards nearby had not stopped them, they would have rushed directly to Yan Yan. The emperor went in front of him. Even so, they were still pushing and pushing the guards who were blocking him, especially He Chu. As a pig butcher, although he didn't know martial arts, he had a lot of strength. The two guards could barely suppress him. Get off him.
The Emperor Yan ignored the He family and his father.
He just stared at his son with an extremely calm look.
In this look , and there is an emotion called disappointment.
Because he felt that it would be an unforgivable mistake for his son to lose the kindness of a woman at this time.
Ji Chengjue obviously understood the meaning in his father's eyes, but he did not retreat, but looked at his father's eyes.
"I want my grandson."
He is the emperor,
He speaks of the Constitution of Heaven,
His will Afterwards, Tian Wujing had to go to the snowfield to drive away the barbarians, and Li Liangting had to return to Beifeng County to continue guarding the barbarians.
If he said to fight, he must fight. If he said to make peace, only the officials of Qian State and the regent of Chu State could make peace.
Now,
Now,
Now,
He,
just wants his eldest grandson. !
Ji Chengjue's chest rose and fell. For the first time, he showed his ferocious face to his father.
He hated this face, this face of his father.
At the same time,
Somehow, deep in my heart,Suddenly he remembered the time when he secretly bribed the eunuch and ran into the cold palace where his mother and concubine were. When he opened the door, what he saw was,
his mother and concubine was hanging on the beam. figure.
Now,
he is here again,
he appears in his home,
he did not ask himself, He decided the fate of his mother and concubine.
Now,
he still decides the fate of his wife without asking himself. < /p>
Word by word:
"I, want, my wife!"
No one could have expected it,
At this time,
A confrontation between monarch and minister, between father and son,
actually happened in this clear drizzle, in such an extremely sudden way... Expand.
And at this moment,
"Wow! Wow! Wow!!!!!!"
A baby's clear cry,
It broke the almost stagnant atmosphere in the hospital at this time.
A female medical officer with blood on her clothes ran out,
knelt on the ground,
crying and laughing at the same time:
"Congratulations to Your Majesty on the birth of your grandson. Congratulations to Your Highness the Sixth Prince. Mother and son are safe!"
At this time, the He family heaved a sigh of relief and no longer struggled with the guards around them. Zhu murmured: "God bless, God bless."
At this time,
Wei Zhonghe knelt down directly,
"I congratulate Your Majesty." , I am so happy to have a grandson, God bless my emperor, may the Yan Dynasty live forever!”
All around, all the escorting maids and eunuchs knelt down and shouted in unison:
“Congratulations, Your Majesty! "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on your grandson!"
The fourth prince, the fifth prince, the eldest prince and his concubine, as well as the prince sitting in the corner, At this time, they all knelt down and said:
"I congratulate my father on the birth of a grandson!"
"I congratulate my father on the birth of a grandson!"
Emperor Yan was unmoved and continued to stare at his sixth son.
After the female officer said, "Mother and child are safe," Ji Chengjue felt as if all her strength had been drained from her whole body,
and she was slapped on the butt Sitting on the floor tiles that had been wetted by raindrops,
He raised his head,
opened his mouth,
his eyes were a little blank,
He was breathing heavily, not knowing whether he was laughing or crying.
In the entire prince's mansion,
everyone was kneeling on the ground.
Only Emperor Yan stood there.
And this Qingming oneRain,
keeps falling.
