Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 231: Chronicles of Yongzheng's Harem 29

"My lady, I am willing to obey your orders..."

Jiayue smiled and interrupted her: "Mammy, don't be in a hurry to reply to me, go back and ask your son-in-law first. After all, working for me may not always bring you peace, I am not in a hurry."

Nanny Chen nodded: "Then I will ask my son-in-law what he thinks first."

Nanny Chen’s son-in-law was called Fabao, a genuine Manchu name, with a relatively rare surname, Sala.

The bannermen did not have to work, but they could still receive money. Although Fabao's path to the imperial examination was cut off, he still lived a good life. Even though he started a business that the bannermen looked down upon, he did not follow those bannermen and start walking his birds and playing with his cats.

It is easy to see whether a person is ambitious or not.

He also paid attention to the education of his children. He spent most of the hard-earned money from his small business on educating his children.

It is indeed reassuring to use it with such people.

If his children were trained, they would not be much older than Hongzhao, and would also be a ready-made team.

The legal protection department will agree to things that are mutually beneficial.

This was indeed the case. Nanny Chen got the chance to meet her son-in-law and told him Jiayue's ideas and plans. Fabao agreed after thinking about it for a while.

His mother-in-law works for Jiayue, and Jiayue has a healthy brother, which is enough for him to take a gamble.

He suffered the consequences of having no background, otherwise his hand would not have been broken, and he would not have been able to take the imperial examination or seek redress. He did not want his son to become like him.

In official circles, there is a difference between having a background and having no background.

Nanny Chen: "Madam, the Dharma Protector said that you can tell him to do whatever you want."

What this means is that it is okay even if you do something shameful.

Jiayue smiled and said, "Why do you have to do this? You can't do anything that is against the will of heaven. I just want to do some business to earn some money for Hongzhao so that he won't have enough money for his family when he gets married in the future."

Nanny Chen breathed a sigh of relief: "Fabao has read a lot of books and is a smart person, but I don't know what business the queen wants him to do?"

Jiayue took out two recipes and said, "These are two recipes that I got by chance. One is for dyeing fabric, and the other is for fixing the color."

Jiayue then took out another 1,000 taels of silver note and said, "Here is 1,000 taels. Ask Fabao to buy a farm in the suburbs and give it a try. If it works, then we can start a cloth business."

If it cannot be accomplished, then Fabao either has flaws in his character or lacks the ability, and naturally there will be no future for him.

Nanny Chen did not ask where the recipe came from, and said respectfully: "Yes, Madam, I will tell the Fabao what you said."

After saying that, Nanny Chen took the banknote and the prescription and left.

Interest relationship is the best way to bind. Jiayue is also guaranteed to meet her expectations. Nanny Chen's ability to connect people is indeed quite interesting.

After that, Jiayue's life became normal again.

With Concubine Nian around, Yinzhen's favorite person would only be Concubine Nian. Of course, although Jiayue's favor was not as great as when Nian was pregnant, it was second only to Concubine Nian.

She was content with this.

To be honest, she was not worthy of the favor from Concubine Nian.

The second year of Yongzheng's reign passed quickly.

In the third year of Yongzheng's reign, on a spring day, Jiayue was painting in her study when Baochun came in in a hurry.

"My queen, the Seventh Prince is seriously ill, and Lady An has given birth prematurely."

Jiayue frowned and put down her pen and ink: "Why is it so sudden? And you're pretending to be together."

"The weather is good today. Concubine An was strolling in the Imperial Gardens and ran into Concubine Nian taking the Seventh Prince for a walk. When they bumped into each other, somehow, there was a mess and Concubine An fell down, and the Seventh Prince also fell down. Now Concubine An is going to give birth prematurely, and the Seventh Prince's face is covered in blood."

"Mrs. An is seven months pregnant and almost eight months pregnant. Why would she want to go to the Imperial Garden? Let's go to the Yikun Palace and take a look."

According to her understanding of Yinzhen, between Noble Concubine An and the Seventh Prince, the Seventh Prince, who was born to Concubine Nian, was naturally more important. After all, Yinzhen did have feelings for Concubine Nian. Moreover, Concubine Nian's father and brother were both being used by him.

Emotionally and rationally, I have to go to Yikun Palace.

On the way there, Jiayue was thinking that the Imperial Garden seemed to be a bit unlucky for the Imperial Concubine Nian.

At the same time, the impression that the Imperial Garden was a high-risk area became more and more deeply rooted in her mind. No matter what, she had to set up surveillance on the Imperial Garden.

Chuxiu Palace is close to Yiku Palace and the Imperial Garden. She received the news early and was the first one to arrive.

As soon as she came in, she saw the atmosphere in Yikun Palace was depressing. When Jiayue came in, she saw Concubine Nian holding the Seventh Prince, her eyes were red from crying, and the Seventh Prince was crying even harder.

Imperial Concubine Nian would occasionally say, "Why hasn't the imperial physician come yet? Imperial physician, hurry up and urge the imperial physician!"

The maid of Yikun Palace beside her saw Jiayue and whispered, "Hello, Concubine Jing. Our Concubine's mind is on the Seventh Prince right now, so I am sorry for not entertaining her well."

Jiayue understood: "I am also your mother, so I understand. You don't have to worry about me. Just do what you need to do. If you need anything, just tell me."

"Thank you, Madam Jing, for your understanding."

Jiayue didn't like to meddle in other people's business. Soon, the imperial physician came, then the queen came, and then Concubine Yu, Concubine Qi, Concubine Xi... all came.

The only one who didn't come was Concubine Mao. She was the main concubine of Concubine An. Concubine An gave birth prematurely, so someone had to look after her, and Concubine Mao was the best candidate.

The last to come was Yinzhen.

It's not that he wasn't paying attention, it's because the incident happened suddenly and he was in court. After hearing the news, he came over as soon as possible.

The imperial physician looked solemn, and after examining the patient, he said, "Your Highness, I can only try my best."

As soon as these words came out, Concubine Nian couldn't hold back any longer: "I beg you, please save my son..."

This was the first time Jiayue had seen Concubine Nian being so humble, and she truly loved her children.

In the Imperial Garden, the Seventh Prince's wet nurse was knocked down, causing the Seventh Prince to fall out. The little boy had a broken forehead and was bleeding profusely.

The Seventh Prince was already weak, and after this fall, it can be said that he was lucky not to die directly.

Yinzhen stood aside, frowning, hugging the concubine and comforting her.

Then he looked at Su Peisheng: "Go to the Imperial Hospital and call a few more doctors over."

"Yes, slave, go right away."

Su Peisheng went out in a hurry.

Yinzhen and the imperial concubine were in no mood to deal with them, so the queen could only sit aside with them and wait quietly for the result.

In such a depressing atmosphere, several more imperial doctors came. They talked together for a long time and finally came up with a plan. After a while of operation, about an hour later, Concubine Nian cried loudly: "My child~"

The seventh prince died young.

To many people, this was not sudden.

It was difficult to raise healthy children in the palace. When the Queen "gave" the child to Concubine Nian, she knew that the child would not live long. She was just not sure how, when, and how the child would die.

Yinzhen was well prepared for this.

So it is true that he dotes on Concubine Nian, but he deliberately avoids getting along with the Seventh Prince.

Yinzhen could only hug the imperial concubine and comfort her: "There will be children again."

Concubine Nian couldn't accept it: "But if I have another child, it won't be my Fu Yi, my child, wuwuwu..."

Yinzhen's eyes became red as he looked at the silent child. He no longer had any emotional investment in the child, but the child was his after all, born to him by his most beloved woman.

He also hated God for not letting him keep the child.

The queen at the side had a worried look on her face: "My noble concubine, the Seventh Prince is gone. I feel sorry and sad too, but the deceased is gone, and we must not indulge in grief. The emperor should do the same."
