The Crown Prince in the Jade Pendant

In late September, the autumn was high and clear, and the blue sky was wide, and the honor guard of King Su drove away from the capital under the **** of officials of the Ministry of Rites.

Even though Su Wang is not the biological son of Concubine Shu, he has been raised under his own name for so many years, and the people who get along day and night have left like this. Concubine Shu has been depressed in her palace for several days as if she was taken away from her spiritual support. . But it was also because King Su was gone, Concubine Shu had no scruples, and the battle with Empress Xiaoqi gradually heated up.

Concubine Shu knew about the tricks Xiao Qi had to use to everyone in the harem. Concubine Shu was very angry, and she quickly dragged Li Fei into the water because she was not comfortable and others would never be comfortable. The harem, which finally stopped, immediately became tense with guns and arrows.

Chu Jinyao was happy to hear about it when someone asked Xiaoqi to trouble. However, these women in the harem were more crazy than others. Chu Jinyao stayed in Ciqing Palace all day, and the sign of closing the door to avoid guests and not wandering into the muddy water is very obvious, even so. Still can't stop the group after group of "visitors" who come with ghosts in their hearts.

Chu Jinyao refused to see guests in the name of meditation and recuperation, but could she refuse the concubine Shu and other female officials and maids, or could she refuse Concubine Shu herself? Concubine Shu worked tirelessly and suddenly became particularly concerned about the princess Chu Jinyao, and she felt distressed in her words. Chu Jinyao was struggling and missed Empress Wen Xiao, and tried her best to encourage Chu Jinyao to deal with Empress Xiaoqi together. Chu Jinyao was not stupid, and he immediately put aside the refusal, but because of that, the war in the harem still spread to her from time to time.

The harem was simply smoky during this period, and even the emperor was not immune. There were the emperor's women on the left and right. The emperor couldn't control it, so he simply blindfolded his head and let them make a fuss. The emperor could cover his eyes and pretend not to see, but Qin Yi could not.

The emperor committed evil by himself, so why did he toss his wife and children? It just happened that the end of the month had come, and the doctor Gao came to diagnose the pulse again. This time he pressed for a long time, stood up and said confidently: "The crown princess is indeed pregnant. The pulse condition in the first month is still a little fluctuating. After several months of recuperation, The fetus of the prince concubine is stable and full of energy and blood. This is a sign of great joy."

Chu Jinyao let out a long sigh of relief when she heard the words. Even if there are many signs that confirm that I am pregnant, it is better to listen to the doctor's diagnosis in person and feel at ease. Qin Yi heard that Chu Jinyao's body had been recuperated, and he silently put down a big stone in his heart. However, before they were happy for too long, Mr. Gao said: "It's just a matter of pregnancy to avoid exhaustion, and the minister observes the pulse of the crown prince. Although the blood is fluent, But there is a faint sign of stagnation, it seems that the worry is too heavy, the mind is drained, and there is no peace of mind."

This is true. These days, because of the affairs of the harem, Chu Jinyao is always vigilant, always holding her heart, even if she tells herself to raise her baby with peace of mind, but the outside environment is like this, how could she think of nothing.

Chu Jinyao was a little anxious and asked, "Doctor Gao, how should you take care of it in your opinion?"

Doctor Gao curled up his beard, pondered for a while and said: "The minister prescribes a few medicines, and the princess will take a note each morning and evening to warm up. But the medicine is inferior in the end, and the medicine is three-point poison. The princess is pregnant. Even if it is a warming medicine, it is not appropriate to drink too much."

"Ah, what should I do?" The several maids who were serving were a little flustered, and Linglong was also anxious. "Doctor Gao, you are good at medical skills. Think of a solution. There is always a way to do both."

"Doctor Gao." Qin Yi interrupted Doctor Gao and said, "Let's talk outside with the lone."

The doctor Gao was taken outside by Qin Yi. They talked for a long time. Chu Jinyao became more anxious as he waited. It was easy to see Qin Yi's return. Chu Jinyao quickly stepped forward and asked, "His Royal Highness, what did the doctor say?"

"It's okay." Qin Yi stretched out his hand to support Chu Jinyao's arm, his movements were familiar and natural, as if he had done it countless times. He helped Chu Jinyao back on the couch and comforted him: "I thought about it before, but I still don't worry about you alone. But during this period of time, the palace is too chaotic. These people want to take advantage of the chaos to cause trouble. You have I’m pregnant and can’t withstand any risks. It’s better to go to Changhe Garden to avoid it. You will come back when I clean up the palace."

"Changheyuan?"

"Yes, it just so happens that my mother's birthday is approaching. In the name of praying for the Buddha, you can just go out of the palace to avoid chaos, and come back when things in the palace stop."

Changhe Garden is the imperial palace built by Xiaozong for his birth mother, Empress Dowager Shou'an. In her later years, Empress Dowager Shou'an loved to worship the Buddha. In order to please the Queen Mother, Xiaozong built Changhe Garden in the western suburbs. Changhe Garden is modeled on the gardens of the south of the Yangtze River, stacking mountains and arranging water, while retaining the elements of the palace. The front is along the central axis with imperial palaces such as palace gates and sacrificial ceremonies. In the back, there are many pavilions, terraces and pavilions dotted with the landscape of the garden. The northern palace and the gardens in the south of the Yangtze River are beautifully integrated. When Changhe Garden was completed, it caused a great sensation in the capital. Empress Dowager Shou'an liked it very much and often stayed in Changhe Garden to worship Buddha. In order to show his filial piety, Xiaozong built a magnificent temple in the back hall.

In a sense, filial piety is equal to fame. Men may still worry about loyalty and filial piety. However, for women, if they have the name of filial piety, it is comparable to educating their children and giving their husbands concubines and other good names. Much stronger. Changhe Yuanben has a reputation for filial piety. If Chu Jinyao goes to Changchunyuan to stay temporarily in the name of reciting filial piety to Empress Wenxiao, his reputation will be an overwhelming victory after he returns. What's more, this is not only beneficial to Chu Jinyao's reputation. As the only son of Empress Wen Xiao, Qin Yi has no siblings. He also needs to remind the public of Empress Wen Xiao's goodness from time to time.

Besides, Changhe Garden is vacant all year round. Once Chu Jinyao moves in, she will be the only master in the garden. The kitchen is all around her, and the people who want anything can be delivered immediately. It is a perfect place to raise a fetus. . It's really a good way to do this in one fell swoop.

But this method is a bit bad. Of course it’s okay for Chu Jinyao to go to Changhe Garden, but what about Qin Yi?

Qin Yi looked at Chu Jinyao’s expression and thought she would not dare to live alone, so he persuaded: "It’s okay, I will send someone to go with you. If you are bored alone, I will ask Shan Guang to send them to their wives. I'll accompany you in the past."

"No, if you speak, General Shan will certainly not have any objections, but it is not good to let the husband and the wife separate." Chu Jinyao said, "It is enough for me to ask my sister and maiden sisters to come and accompany me."

This is also true. After all, the wife of the foreign minister did not have her own dedication. Since Chu Jinyao said so, Qin Yi also let her. After Qin Yi finished speaking, he saw that Chu Jinyao was still unhappy. Qin Yi was a little surprised: "What's the matter, why do you still feel uneasy?"

Now that Qin Yi asked, Chu Jinyao joked half-truth and half-truth: "Changhe Garden is a well-known and good place. What can I worry about? Actually, I don't worry about you, your Highness."

Qin Yi paused for a moment, and suddenly figured it out. He also looked at Chu Jinyao and smiled, "What are you worried about?"

"Naturally, I don't worry about the maids around your Royal Highness, worrying about their negligence of duty, and worrying that they can't remember where to put things, so that your Royal Highness will catch the cold." Chu Jinyao snorted softly, full of sourness, "It's better than what your Highness thought it was ?"

Qin Yi refrained from laughing and said: "It turns out that the prince has been thinking about it for so long, and I plan to let you take away all the maids and maids. It seems that I have been worrying too much."

"Okay." Chu Jinyao said deliberately, "If your Royal Highness is not inconvenient, then I will take away all the women in the East Palace. When your Highness regrets it, don't blame me."

It is rare for Qin Yi to see Chu Jinyao's obvious jealousy, but after hearing it, he did not like such unlucky words, even if it was just a hypothesis.

"Don't say such things anymore, it's unlucky to say too much."

After hearing this, Chu Jinyao raised her eyebrows: "His Royal Highness is such a superstitious person?"

"I am not." Qin Yi smiled and looked at Chu Jinyao, with a faint smile, but there was a danger deep in his eyes, "but I don't want to listen, even if it's impossible to assume."

Chu Jinyao, who was originally a little angry, felt a lot more comfortable in her heart, but don’t think that this would be able to confuse the topic of the talents. Chu Jinyao still clearly remembered that they were talking about the maids: "Don’t say I can’t get everything All the women in the palace are taken away. Even if I really do such things, there will be no women outside of Ciqing Palace. As long as your Royal Highness is really interested, how about I take all the people away? What if I don’t take them alone? "

"I haven't done anything yet. You are about to convict me." Qin Yi laughed, his fingers were a little itchy, originally wanted to rub Chu Jinyao's hair, but thought that she was different now, so she held it back. "Jin Yao, they are nothing but palace ladies to me, but you are my wife, with my only child in my belly, and in the future will be the mother of my other children. Other men may be addicted to the freshness of the moment. It is different from beauty, but I am different. If these insignificant women may cause you to be apart from me, then why should I do such a thing that is obviously more harmful than good?"

Qin Yi rubbed the palm of Chu Jinyao's palm. In this place, there was a wound made by the scattered wooden frame. He now remembers the moment when the blood poured out. At that time, he was seriously injured and he was still experiencing a mental gap from the imperial city to the border. If it hadn't been for Chu Jinyao, Qin Yi would not have been able to pass the most important turning point in his life so smoothly. Later, Qin Yi was able to return to his body in time to restore the situation at the border, probably because of the blood flowing out of Chu Jinyao.

Thinking of this Qin Yi, he wanted to scold Tang Xinyi, although to a certain extent, Tang Xinyi was ordered by him, and it did push Qin Yi back to the throne. Besides, Qin Yi himself is the master of domineering, how could he not know the virtues of Donggong's courtiers outside, but no matter how you say it, bullying Chu Jinyao with his power is no good.

Qin Yi suddenly wanted to punish Tang Xinyi again.

Qin Yi didn't know why his injury was pinned in Chu Jinyao's Jade Perry. All coincidence seemed to be an artificial arrangement. Qin Yi, a person who has a strong personality and hates being forced by others, is not disgusted with this "coincidence". If it is an artificial arrangement, then his mother Empress Wen Xiao personally asked for his jade pendant, and Chu Jinyao's jade pendant is also Wear it at birth, perhaps, this is what God means.

Therefore, Chu Jinyao's significance to Qin Yi is far more important than she thought. And the child is just Chu Jinyao's subsidiary. Qin Yi cared about this unborn child not because it was his eldest son or eldest daughter, but because he was in Chu Jinyao's belly.

Therefore, Chu Jinyao's worries are actually superfluous. There is no difference in Qin Yi's eyes for the women under the world, but there is only one Chu Jinyao. With Chu Jinyao's axis of personality, once you really hurt your heart, you can't do anything in the future. Zhao is the best example. Qin Yi watched with his own eyes how Chu Jinyao and the Zhao family got to this point. How could he repeat the mistakes of others after fighting for power for so many years.

Qin Yi's words were so sensible and ruthless, he talked about the pros and cons from the perspective of a politician, but Chu Jinyao thought about it and accepted it without any obstacles. Qin Yi is such a person. If he said something numb and touching, Chu Jinyao would have to doubt whether he wanted to cover it up.

A woman's temper is the sky in June. Chu Jinyao has always believed that she is a reasonable person, but facts have proved that it makes sense that the saying can be passed down. Chu Jinyao, who was inexplicably angry, was inexplicably coaxed again. She was relieved in her heart, but the scene always had to be dressed up: "Your Highness really does not mind? My father still has a common room for a few concubines, and I entered the palace. I won’t arrange someone for you. I’m pregnant now, and I can’t take care of you. I have to go to the palace in a few days. If I’m still stubborn, is there a way to lose my wife?”

"What is the way of being a wife?"

Chu Jinyao paused. The elders and the female ring were always talking about the way to be a wife, □ a woman in the world should be a good wife, but what is good and what is the way?

Seeing that Chu Jinyao understood, Qin Yi smiled and nodded her forehead: "We are husband and wife. I think it's good to get along like us."

"What if someone says me?"

"Who would dare to say you, please write down the list and pass it directly to me."

Chu Jinyao snorted: "His Royal Highness, you don't distinguish between public and private, and you just listen and believe."

Qin Yi was also very confident: "They dare to talk about you, they deserve it."

After making up his mind to go to Changhe Garden, the rest of the matter will be a matter of course. Qin Yi proposed to send Chu Jinyao to reciting the scriptures to the Queen of Daqi. The emperor saw that the chanting was false and that it was true to avoid the harem. However, this was also the emperor's grandson. The emperor did not ask much, so he agreed.

The crown princess went to Changhe Garden to pray for Empress Wenxiao. This is naturally a major event. The servants and maids in Changhe Garden immediately tightened their nerves, and the soil inside and outside the garden was dug out three feet. Jin Yiwei repeatedly explored to ensure that the place is absolutely safe. , Chu Jinyao's frame just started from the East Palace.

Chu Jinxian accompanied Chu Jinyao to stay in Changhe Garden. On the frame, Chu Jinxian looked at Chu Jinyao and said inexplicably, "You are really brave. You are still pregnant, so just ran out by yourself. Now? The prince is left unattended in the palace alone and don’t talk about it. Can you trust the palace ladies who are left behind?”

"If he thinks, no matter what I do is useless, if he doesn't want to, those palace ladies will not be able to get out of his control. Therefore, the key is not me." Chu Jinyao can see clearly that if a man wants to steal fishy, The wife can't help but tie the man on the belt. It doesn't make any difference whether Chu Jinyao is in the East Palace or not. If that's the case, it's better to raise a baby with peace of mind and don't make yourself suffer.

Chu Jinxian thinks about it, heirs are the foundation of a woman's life. As long as she has a child, it doesn't matter if she is not favored. Changhe Garden is located in the western suburbs. This area is full of the private gardens of the emperor's relatives, literati and inkmen. There are many famous gardens, but in front of Changhe Garden, all of the previous ones don't add up to a big deal.

It was also the first time for Chu Jinyao to come to Changhe Garden. Although the palaces in front were magnificent, they were all immortal. She lived in the Yunya Temple at the back. Although Chu Jinxian and Chu Jinyao are sisters, they are already married, so she lives in Tanningju with her son.

Chu Jinxian walked along the road, and only seeing it on the road was enough to make her amazed: "It's a royal garden. After seeing it, I realized that the Bieyuan I had seen before was just a small villager."

"This is only the palace in front. This area is modeled on the palace. At the back is the garden. It is five or six times the size of the palace area, and there are four lakes. When we are settled, we will take Brother Lu to go. Look at it later." Chu Jinyao leaned over to tease Brother Lu as he said, "Brother Lu, Aunt Wu will take you to the garden. Are you okay?"

Chu Jinxian came to stay with Chu Jinyao, and of course also brought his son Zhao Lu. Chu Jinyao is pregnant, and now it is the time when maternal love to children is overflowing. Brother Lu is not afraid of having a baby. The two get along very well.

Chu Jinxian smiled and allowed Chu Jinyao to tease the child, but reminded her when Chu Jinyao was holding the child: "Be careful, you are lighter now. Beware of hurting the child in your stomach."

"I know." Chu Jinyao is very caring about her children, and she doesn't need to say Chu Jinxian, she is cautious enough to act on her own.

After Chu Jinyao moved to Changhe Garden, all she had to do every day was gossiping with her sister, seeing brother Lu, and when the weather was fine, she could go to the garden behind to relax. Everything went well without the need for a doctor. Chu Jinyao could feel that her health was much better.

One afternoon, Brother Lu fell asleep. Chu Jinyao and Chu Jinxian sat in the warm sunlight. They both looked after Brother Lu while talking in a low voice. Chu Jinyao remembered about the Changxing Marquis, and asked Chu Jinxian in a low voice, "Sister, how did you find out what the second sister-in-law said last time?"

"This matter." Chu Jinxian pursed her lips, her expression suddenly turned strange, "This is a long story, and it's no wonder that the second brother didn't dare to let the family know about this."
