Despite the rumors spreading outside, the prince and the emperor could not help but pretend to be deaf and dumb. As time went by, these people understood that both the majesty and the prince were protecting the princess.

The princess really has a good father.

His Majesty has always been brooding over Su Chun's death, and now the guilt has been transferred to Su Chun's daughter. Not only did he make her the crown princess, but he also doted on the East Palace alone and did not even include anyone in the draft.

This makes many families who want to send their daughters to the East Palace feel uneasy. Su Chun has been dead for many years, and looking at the scenery of the Crown Princess, it makes people want to send their daughters there even more.

Even with Su Xinyi's reputation and toughness, he can be treated like this by His Highness the Crown Prince. His daughter is gentle and virtuous, and her future future will definitely be good.

If this draft doesn't work out, there will be another one, and they can afford to wait.

Su Xinyi didn't care about the ups and downs outside. The royal family's etiquette for accepting concubines was relatively simple. Prince Jing's Palace and Prince Wu's Palace didn't have any big arrangements for accepting concubines. The Ministry of Rites followed the regulations and carried the people in with a sedan chair.

A few days after Su Xinyi took in Prince Jing's concubine, she asked Nanny She to visit Tu Jingjia in Prince Jing's Mansion. It was not a high-profile matter, but people in Prince Jing's Mansion knew what they should know.

Mother She came back and replied to the Crown Princess: "Princess Jing looks very good and is in a good mood. Princess Rong sent a storyteller over, which made Princess Jing laugh all day long. Princess Jing asked the old slave to tell you, Don't worry, your life is comfortable now."

Su Xinyi looked at Aunt She in surprise and asked, "Mr. Storyteller? This is a good idea. I'm sorry that the princess can think of it. It's good."

"Yes, Crown Princess, you can rest assured now." Grandma She also thinks that Princess Rong's move is good. Most people can think of it and can't do it. Who dares to send a storyteller to the mansion, but behind Princess Rong's back There was a free-spirited Prince Rong, whom most people did not dare to provoke, and even several princes walked around Prince Rong.

In this way, Princess Rong didn't have so many scruples about giving it away.

Su Xinyi looked at Nanny She and asked softly: "What about Concubine Yan?"

Aunt She knew that the Crown Princess would ask this, so she also lowered her voice and said with a smile: "I knew you were worried, so I shamelessly asked Princess Jing. The Princess said that Concubine Yan is very peaceful these days. There was no commotion. Moreover, His Highness Prince Jing did not like Concubine Yan very much. His Highness Prince Jing rested there for several days when Concubine Yan came in."

Su Xinyi didn't quite understand what he said. He looked at Nanny She and asked, "Nanny, what do you mean by King Jing?"

If he didn't like him, he wouldn't have brought him into the house in the first place. If he liked him, he wouldn't be pampered much after he entered the house, which was strange.

Aunt She shook her head, "It's hard to say, old slave, but with the presence of the virtuous concubine in the palace, the empress will definitely remind Prince Jing not to embarrass Princess Jing. Maybe now he is worried about the princess being pregnant. Maybe Prince Jing was the one in the beginning. In order to be responsible, the old slave is not sure."

Su Xinyi felt that what she said made sense, and she could not interfere in other people's affairs, so she said to her, "It's best for now. As long as King Jing loves Princess Jing, that's enough."

As for whether Tu Jingjia wants King Jing's heart, Su Xinyi can't help with this kind of thing. The only thing she can do is to protect the face of Tu Jingjia, the princess.

"What the Crown Princess said is that if you are as careless as Prince Xiang's Mansion, you will have your hands full."

Su Xinyi also laughed, "That's not true, but since no one entered Prince Xiang's Mansion this time, Princess Xiang's life will be easier."

Aunt She coughed lightly and shook her head, "It's hard to say. I heard some news that His Royal Highness Prince Xiang has been staying with Fuyun recently, and Princess Xiang rarely sees people on weekdays."

Su Xinyi:......

Without Li Ji and King Yi taking charge of the overall situation for King Xiang behind his back, this soft-eared person could no longer be controlled.

However, You Xiangzhi is not a soft persimmon. I am afraid that she is not in a hurry now, but is waiting for the opportunity.

Su Xinyi had no time to talk about the affairs of Prince Xiang's Mansion. Seeing that the Crown Princess was not interested, Grandma She mentioned another matter.

"The old slave also heard something, and the Crown Princess will definitely be willing to hear it."

"What's going on?" Su Xinyi was indeed intrigued by Grandma She and looked at her with a smile and asked.

"It's a matter in Prince Wu's Mansion. The old slave heard that Concubine Zhou was punished by Princess Wu for having a fetal infection. Concubine Pei contradicted Princess Wu to protect the child in Concubine Zhou's belly. Princess Wu was furious and grounded Concubine Pei. . However, Mrs. Wu Anhou soon learned of the matter and reported it to Concubine Ruan Ming. Concubine Ruan Ming sent her nanny out of the palace to scold Concubine Wu at Prince Wu's Mansion."

Su Xinyi was quite surprised. She didn't expect that the one causing the most commotion would be Prince Wu's Mansion.

Will Pei Huiran confront Ji Yun over a concubine?

I'm afraid Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was intended for Pei Gong.

Sure enough, none of the girls in the Pei family are simple.

Thinking of this, she looked at Nanny She and asked: "Princess Xiang and Concubine Pei are cousins. Since they have entered the royal family, Princess Xiang has not supported Concubine Pei?"

Grandma She shook her head, "I haven't heard of it."

Su Xinyi made a "tsk" sound, looked at Aunt She and smiled: "These cousins ​​are nothing more than that."

"What the Crown Princess said is that when Wu'an Hou Mansion pushed Princess Xiang out, she had no good intentions and wanted to send her into the harem. Princess Xiang is not stupid. The reason why she remained silent was probably because she wanted to use Wu An Hou's help. The house jumped up. However, things went wrong in the end, and I heard that the two families were not happy. It is not surprising that they don't have much contact now. "

Su Xinyi said with a smile: "It will be very lively in the future."

"Just wait and see the big show."

Su Xinyi was in a good mood. It wasn't that she wanted to see other people's jokes. In fact, these people were also waiting to see her jokes. Don't think she didn't know that Mrs. Wu'anhou was going out to ruin her reputation this time.

After the draft, the capital suddenly became quiet.

The caravan had already set off, and Su Xinyi saw off his two cousins, hoping that they would return safely.

Mu Xing went to Duogan, but no news came back.

As time goes by step by step, Su Xinyi's belly is getting bigger and bigger, and in the past two months, the marriages of several young masters in the Duke's Mansion have also been decided.

Su Bei chose Wei, the daughter of the Minister of Industry, Su Ju decided Zhang, the daughter of the minister of Taichang Temple, and Su Chu decided Luo, the daughter of the Imperial Academy.

The one with the highest family status is Su Bei's fiancée Wei, but the Ministry of Industry is the lowest among the six departments. She is in charge of construction and does not have much power. Taichang Temple is in charge of sacrifices and rituals in the ancestral temple, and the Imperial Prince supervises scholars. They are all in-laws with no real power.

It’s not good for people to keep an eye on the several marriages in the Duke’s Mansion. No one expected that the Duke’s Mansion would decide on these marriages. With the current momentum of the Duke’s Mansion, there is also a princess in the family, so the marriage should be better. Aristocratic families are the right ones, but the people marrying into the Duke's office are all civil servants with no real power in the court.

Su Xinyi was also surprised. Although he had known that the family had this plan for a long time, he never expected that the marriage arrangements for his brothers would be so low.

It wasn't that Su Xinyi looked down upon her future sisters-in-law, but she was afraid that her brothers would feel wronged.

She was worried, so she wrote a letter back home to her mother to inquire more about it.

The fourth lady's letter was sent back very quickly. Su Xinyi read it and let out a long sigh after reading it. The letter said that the marriage of several brothers was the idea of ​​his grandfather, and that the Duke's Palace was now too focused and should not be publicized. Besides, Although the selected girl's family background is not obvious, the family has carefully inquired and there is no one with a blemish on her reputation.

Su Xinyi held the letter and fell into deep thought. Among the first brothers in the family, the eldest brother and the second brother were the quickest to show up. Especially the eldest brother Su Yi, who followed Shang Junyan back south and was rewarded by His Majesty. The second brother had to do several errands. Official positions will also come down. As for the next few brothers, they will naturally compete with each other. They will have to stay dormant for at least a few years. If they want to get ahead, it depends on the opportunity.

Therefore, at this time, marriage is the most important thing. It is right for the family to choose a wife for them rather than focusing on family background and focusing on character.

Now that Su Xinyi knew the family's plan, she felt relieved. Her grandfather must have thought more carefully than she did.

She is getting heavier and heavier now, and her delivery date is very close. Every day, Grandma She will accompany her to walk around the garden to eat.

The delivery room in the East Palace also began to prepare, and everything was in order.

After entering June, Su Xinyi felt that it was getting harder and harder day by day, even though he was a martial arts practitioner. He couldn't sleep well at night, and even His Highness was also having a hard time.

She also advised him to go to the front hall to rest, but Yan Junchu refused.

The weather in early June already had the dryness of early summer. Su Xinyi shook her fan and checked the accounts of the East Palace. Zhu Chanyi found out that she was pregnant in May. The Queen was very happy. Now King Rong was detained by the Queen, and he was not allowed to take advantage of it. What other thoughts does the wife have when she is pregnant?

For fear that her son would be plotted against, the Queen specifically asked Your Majesty to send him to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing.

On the day when King Rong came to the East Palace to complain, Su Xinyi was so happy that he saw a joke. King Rong was laughed at by Su Xinyi, and he suddenly felt that he couldn't hold it in his face, so he left again angrily.

It's interesting when I think of Su Xinyi.

In addition, what is surprising is that Prince Wu's Pei Huiran was found to be pregnant in April. In comparison, Ji Yun, the Princess of Wu, was simply slapped in the face.

There is good news everywhere in the royal family. The emperor is in a good mood. He caught a cold in spring and recovered in less than half a month.

However, it was because the old man of the Duke's Mansion was too old that the cold lasted for two months before he recovered.

Su Xinyi has been worried about this, because in her previous life, the old lady disappeared due to the cold. She asked His Highness to send an imperial doctor to the Duke's Mansion for diagnosis and treatment. His Majesty was also very concerned after hearing about it. The Imperial Hospital worked hard and finally got the result. Su Xinyi was very happy.

When Yan Junchu came back, he saw Xin Yi sitting in the study, frowning and not knowing what he was reading. He walked over gently, looked at her and said, "Why are you coming to the study again? The doctor said, you are now Can’t sit for long periods of time.”

Su Xinyi raised his head when he heard Yan Junchu's voice, calmed down, and then said: "I just came in a while ago, but His Highness came back early today."

Su Xinyi stood up, and Yan Junchu took her hand and walked out, "There are fewer official documents today. How do you feel today? Has the imperial doctor come to take your pulse?"

Su Xinyi felt that she was about to give birth, and the prince was more nervous than she was. She smiled and said: "The hospital does not dare to neglect. I come here every day to say hello. My pulse is very good today, so you don't have to worry."

How could Yan Junchu not be worried? Su Xinyi was worried about the old man's illness every day, and she lost a lot of weight. Finally, the old man recovered from his illness, and she felt better now. , and I didn’t see a few ounces of meat growing.

"That's good..." Before Yan Junchu could say anything, he looked at Xin Yi's eyebrows and frowned, and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong?"

Su Xinyi felt a sharp pain in her waist and abdomen, and her face suddenly turned pale. She held His Highness's hand tightly and was about to say that nothing was wrong, when she heard His Highness shout, "Mr. Xuan!"

The prince's voice made the entire East Palace tense. Aunt She happened to be away. Su Xinyi calmed down and felt that the pain was not so much anymore, so she said to His Highness: "It's okay, I don't feel any pain now."

Yan Junchu carefully helped Xin Yi into the inner hall and asked her to sit down. He said with a straight face: "You are always so indifferent, how can everything be okay?"

His face turned pale from pain just now.

Su Xinyi was about to speak when she suddenly felt the sharp pain from before, and there were faint beads of sweat on her forehead.

The doctor is here.

Yan Junchu hurriedly asked someone to come in and check her pulse. After checking her pulse, the imperial doctor immediately said, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess is about to give birth."

Su Xinyi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, looked at the prince and said: "Maybe this is the travel pain that Grandma She was talking about..."

She was inexperienced and didn't know that this was a sign of childbirth. Grandma She had told her about it, but she didn't think about it for a while.

The prince held Su Xinyi's hand tightly and immediately asked someone to clean up the delivery room. Then he looked at the imperial doctor and asked, "How is the princess doing now? Why is she in so much pain?"

Su Xinyi is a person who is very tolerant of pain, but this time her face turned pale from the pain, which showed how painful it was.

Imperial Physician:...

Which woman doesn’t feel pain during childbirth?

But His Highness the Crown Prince asked this, he would definitely not dare to reply like this, would he risk his life?

The imperial doctor hurriedly replied: "Your Highness, this is all normal. It will be fine when the midwife comes to take a look. You don't have to worry."

Su Xinyi also looked at the prince and said, "Everything the imperial doctor said is right. Aunt She also told me so. Your Highness, don't worry."

Yan Junchu had never experienced such a battle, so how could he not be worried? His face turned faintly blue, and he didn't want Xin Yi to worry so he nodded stiffly.

The midwife came over on hot wheels and helped the princess into the delivery room. Yan Junchu was locked out.

Aunt She quickly ran back after getting the news. She was out of breath and didn't bother to greet His Highness, so she opened the door and went in.

Yan Junchu couldn't care less about whether Nanny She was being rude or not. He was relieved when he saw Nanny She go in. Only then did he have time to send someone to the Queen to send a message that the Crown Princess was expecting a baby.

After thinking about it, he asked the people around him to go to Zichen Hall to report back. He stood outside the delivery room, walking around anxiously, feeling that the days were passing like years, how could it be so slow.

Moreover, I heard that other people's screams were miserable when they gave birth to children. Why didn't my wife make any move?
