Chapter 213 Crack
Chapter 213 Crack
As the due date approaches, Concubine Jin is nervous but also full of anticipation.
This pregnancy of Concubine Zhang exhausted her physically and mentally. Her due date was in late summer, but she waited and waited in the Old Summer Palace but the baby just didn't go into labor until she returned to the palace.
She had worked hard to take care of it for half a year, but now it was time to reap the fruits of her labor.
Not long after Concubine Zhang entered the delivery room, all the concubines in the palace rushed over upon hearing the news.
With Concubine Jin going through so much trouble, everyone in the harem must be curious whether Concubine Zhang can have the baby she wants.
Cao Qinmo arrived quite early. After Huimin arrived, she and Huimin exchanged glances seemingly unintentionally, and both of them understood each other tacitly.
Whether Concubine Zhang's baby is a boy or a girl will determine how the plan will be implemented.
The person who just went there informed the emperor, but the one who replied has not come back yet.
Everyone is also waiting to see the emperor's attitude towards this child. If he comes in person to wait, things will be different.
Concubine Jin's palms were sweating from nervousness.
I pray silently in my heart, hoping that my wish will come true.
Later, Xiao Xia Zi, who was beside the emperor, came to report that the emperor was busy with government affairs and would not come.
Concubine Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and the people present had different thoughts.
Huimin sat in the chair calmly and waited, this was not something that could be solved in a hurry.
The gender of a child cannot be determined by these concubines praying for two days and cursing a few words.
Seeing Concubine Jin who was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, Huimin turned her head and started chatting with Shen Meizhuang about family matters.
This will take some time.
Huimin just watched Concubine Jin pace back and forth, then sit down on a chair and sigh anxiously, then stand up again and look at the tightly closed palace door with eager eyes.
But no matter how anxious she was, the birth of the child would not be quick, especially since this was Concubine Zhang's first child.
Huimin took a sip of tea to moisten her lips. Her body became stiff from sitting, and she didn’t know how long it would take.
Huimin yawned sleepily, covering her lips with her sleeve. Even though she was extremely tired, she still had to pay attention to her manners.
Suddenly, the palace door opened with a bang and the people inside walked out.
Concubine Jin's eyes narrowed suddenly and she stood up.
Huimin also looked at the swaddling clothes solemnly.
The concubines, who had been waiting so lazily, also sat up straight.
Finally waited.
Facing Concubine Jin's fiery gaze, the old woman said joyfully:
"Congratulations, Madam, the young lady has given birth to a prince."
Brother?
Brother!
Some of the concubines present had dark faces, some felt contempt in their hearts, some pouted sourly, and some were dismissive.
But Jinpin didn't care what others thought.
She strode forward anxiously and held the child in her arms first.
The moment she saw the child, Concubine Jin's eyes changed, filled with tenderness and ambition. These conflicting emotions mixed together, making Concubine Jin's expression look a little weird.
Cao Qinmo looked at Ulanara and also put on a smile.
She really got what she wanted.
Then Cao Qinmo looked at Huimin's back, but no matter who it was, no one could block Prince Hongyao's way, let alone Wen Yi's way.
Concubine Jin held the child tightly and refused to let go. The more she looked at the child, the more she liked him. She couldn't let go of the soft baby.
That’s great! Lady Zhang is so blessed.
Concubine Jin felt unhappy.
Concubine Zhang is so lucky that she can give birth to a prince despite her condition.
However, Concubine Jin is a blessed person holding the little package in her arms.
After all, there is a world of difference between a mother who came from the fifth banners of the Han army and a mother who came from the upper three banners of the Manchu army.
How can it not be considered a blessing for Concubine Zhang that she can raise her child by herself?
Concubine Jin held the child and hurried into the inner hall, leaving the concubines outside looking at each other in bewilderment.
This……
Is Concubine Jin so happy that she's silly?
Sure enough, Concubine Jin put the child down and hurried out to entertain the concubines.
But everyone knew what Concubine Jin was thinking about now, and the concubines all said goodbye one after another.
Few people want to see Concubine Jin's smug look now.
The villain succeeded, Xia Dongchun flicked his sleeves and stepped out of the gate of Yonghe Palace first.
Huimin had instructed early in the morning that after Concubine Zhang gave birth, no matter whether the baby was a boy or a girl, she should not communicate too much with Concubine Jin, nor should she stay in Yonghe Palace for too long, but should return to her own palace early.
Huimin didn't say why, but Xia Dongchun and the others all obediently returned to the palace.
Huimin was walking on the way back to Chengqian Palace, thinking slowly.
It's a boy, I'm afraid the emperor will start to hesitate.
With the emperor's temper, he will definitely have people keeping an eye on Yonghe Palace, so we must not cause any trouble today.
Otherwise, if something happens to the child in the future, the emperor will inevitably be suspicious.
If everything goes smoothly for the child, the emperor will start to suspect that someone else also wants to raise this prince and that is why he has conflicts with Concubine Jin.
The emperor's thoughts are hard to guess, but also easy to guess. Just guess in the direction that the emperor would be suspicious.
Just guess based on the imperial power.
The emperor would not think that the women in the harem would betray him because he is the master of the world.
But he was afraid that the women in the harem would covet his throne.
Because these women have families and children behind them, it is normal for them to support their sons to ascend to the throne.
The emperor came from the battle for the throne among the nine dragons and is the most suspicious.
He disliked Concubine Jin, but if someone said something to Concubine Jin at this critical juncture, he would start to doubt that person's motives.
Huimin walked slowly, step by step, stepping steadily on the bluestone slabs.
Concubine Zhang was lucky and gave birth to a healthy prince safely.
You know, having a biological mother around is always an eyesore, so Concubine Jin couldn't help but think of going over to keep her son.
But the fact that Concubine Jin could be tolerated must be the ability of Concubine Zhang.
He is obedient and submissive, but this noble man is not as submissive as he looks.
The Fourth Prince only stared at Concubine Jin and the newborn prince, but he was wrong.
Speaking of the Fourth Prince, he had already received the news that Concubine Zhang had safely given birth to a baby boy.
I have mixed feelings in my heart.
The Fourth Prince hoped very much that Concubine Zhang would give birth to a princess, but things did not go as he wished.
Brother!
How come he is just a brother?
The Fourth Prince clenched his hands tightly, his nails digging deep into his flesh, so that he could appear calm in front of others.
After the Fourth Prince entered the study, he began to practice calligraphy.
But the more he wrote, the more frantic he became, and the more sloppy his handwriting became.
The Fourth Prince looked at the papers, gathered them together, and tore them into pieces in his hands.
Homework, homework, how can I hand it in like this?
Concubine Jin had other choices. If she couldn't please her and the Emperor more, she would become an abandoned person sooner or later.
In other words, the Fourth Prince had a gloomy face and felt that he was almost abandoned.
The Fourth Prince tried hard to calm down his anger. He must not let anyone notice that anything was wrong with him today.
Absolutely not, you can't break any porcelain or damage anything.
The Fourth Prince endured it tightly, but he was even angrier inside, and a feeling of malice gradually welled up in his heart.
Concubine Jin looks down on me, that’s good.
The Fourth Prince slowly calmed down.
I need someone in the harem who can help me, it can be Concubine Jin or someone else.
As for Concubine Xiang...the Fourth Prince lowered his head.
