Little Zhenbao recovered in just two days, but she became even more dependent on her father and mother, and wanted to take a nap with her mother every day.
Hongyu had lost his vitality and it took him a month to get out of bed.
He Zhuo did not dare to give him a lot of nourishment, but could only nourish and cleanse him every day. Anything abnormal must be a sign of something sinister. After a month of cleansing, Hongyu had fully recovered. However, He Zhuo used a trick to make him look weak, and his pulse was also changed.
The herbal medicine was all thrown away, and since everyone in the room was family, Bai Xia replaced it with a more nourishing medicine.
It's already July, the height of summer, and the hot weather makes people reluctant to move.
Chunfen, the maid, hurried over and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince's Consort Li has just given birth to a prince."
He Zhuo didn't even lift his eyelids: "Didn't you say it was only 8 months?"
Granny Shi: "I didn't hear about labor starting. She gave birth so quickly. What did the imperial physician say?"
Chunfen was taken aback for a moment. She came after hearing that a prince had been born, but she didn't ask for details. "This servant will go and find out more."
Granny Shi: "Why are you still so impetuous?" the nanny scolded.
"That's enough, go down. There's no need to ask anymore. An eight-month-old child..." He Zhuo didn't finish his sentence.
Spring Equinox: "This servant takes her leave."
“They wanted to get rid of my son because they knew he was a prince,” He Zhuoyou said.
Granny Shi comforted her, "Princess, there's no need to worry. Our Prince Hongyu is very healthy. This eight-month-old baby..."
He shook his head after saying that.
"The princess is now quite far along in her pregnancy, and the servants can handle everything else; there's no need for her to worry about anything else."
"Let me tell you a joke. The other day, this concubine Dong actually said to the master that she wanted to become a secondary consort. She's gone mad! The master scolded her for being nonsensical and dragged her out of the front yard with her hair disheveled. She's completely fallen out of favor now."
The concubine Cao who came with her, I heard, is also ill.
He Zhuo took a sip of the spiritual honey: "She's not sick, she's just scared, afraid of being implicated. There's no need to worry about Concubine Cao. Since she's gone mad, she should just rest and recover. There's no need to release her again."
With a single sentence from He Zhuo, Cao's concubine's future was sealed; she was essentially confined to her quarters forever.
This is because it is not easy to act in the palace; otherwise, which mistress would so easily let go of a concubine with disloyal intentions?
My own death is a small matter; if I harm the young master of the manor, my whole family will be doomed.
This is what power tastes like.
Yinzhi was still very interested in Cao and Dong, especially Cao's concubine, whose plump figure, like a peach, surpassed his own. She would take up 10 days of his time each month, something that had never happened before. For a time, the two of them were the talk of the town.
When Consort Fan came to this garden, she was summoned to the front courtyard once. During the half-month that Yinzhi rested in the front courtyard, he had Cao and Dong serve him, and for the other half-month, he rested in the main courtyard.
He Zhuo was happy to have some free time; the days without Yin Zhi were perfect for him to cultivate.
Sure enough, a day later, everyone learned that the Crown Prince's youngest son was in poor health and needed careful recuperation.
They didn't even hold a baby shower ceremony for the baby's third day, but everyone still sent gifts.
Although the weather was hot, it did not dampen Yinzhi's enthusiasm for going to the Ministry of War.
Despite it being the height of summer, the Eight Banners soldiers still had to train every day. During this western expedition against Galdan, Kangxi discovered many problems with the Eight Banners. They were far less brave than the Mongol soldiers on the battlefield. After returning to Beijing, he severely reprimanded several banner leaders.
Therefore, even in the height of summer, the Eight Banners soldiers dared not slacken their efforts and vowed to avenge their previous defeat.
As the emperor's son, Yinzhi practiced with the soldiers every day, which was rare and earned him unanimous praise from the army.
Because of this, Yinzhi has been showing off his baby all year, and Hezhuo can't help but laugh when he thinks about how his little treasure doesn't want to be held by his father.
"Father, Blackie!"
