Twenty days before the New Year, the capital has already become very festive.
Every household put up red lanterns and hung them under the doors and windows. They bought red candles and put them inside. When they were lit at night, they would glow red.
The new emperor did not show up, and only those in high positions were truly panicked.
For the common people, as long as there are no troops approaching the city, there is nothing to worry about. They should eat, drink, and celebrate festivals.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The only place where senior officials in the capital can truly have a stable life is the Prince's Mansion of Qingping County.
Even the die-hard supporters of the new emperor, such as the Liu family, Chai family, and Zhu family, although they got a few words from Ji Yunshu, they still felt a little worried because they had not seen the new emperor alive and kicking with their own eyes.
It is this worry that makes other people even more confused, wondering whether the new emperor is good or bad.
¡°This world is in chaos or not.
Qingping County Prince¡¯s Mansion.
Lianxinyuan.
Several children ran out to play.
The wet nurse held the white and fat little boy in her arms and came up to Qiao Lianlian to show her.
How about being a rich man?
Except when Qiao Lianlian was breastfeeding and when he wanted to amuse his son, he was held by his wet nurse at other times, and he couldn't stand being tired at all.
Precisely because of this, Qiao Lianlian has been sitting particularly well during this period of confinement. After only twenty days, she is already radiant and cultivated, and her figure is only slightly plumper than before she was born.
Qiao Lianlian felt uncomfortable and clamored to eat less pig trotters to reduce the amount of meat on her body.
"As a result, Li Chunhua scolded her with an envious look on her face, "Other people are fat during confinement, but look at you, you have put on some fat just after giving birth. This amount of fat is just right. It's not fat, but it's just not that thin."
Qiao Lianlian felt a little calmer in her heart. She stopped yelling about chewing two pig trotters and was in the mood to tease her son.
"Young Master, Young Master." She touched her son's little hand.
The little guy is only twenty days old. He eats and sleeps every day, and plays when he wakes up. He has a pair of grape-like eyes open, and he doesn¡¯t look like anyone, so he feels that he is definitely not ugly.
¡°I¡¯ve been calling him ¡°young master¡± all day long, but I didn¡¯t even give him a name.¡± Li Chunhua stood up.
She is now seven months old and her belly is very big and swollen, but she is still worried about the affairs of Lianxinyuan, especially Qiao Lian's confinement period, for fear that she will not recover well and suffer from any sequelae.
"As for the name" Qiao thought for a moment, "I may have to wait for my mother to make up her mind."
Of course the mother she was talking about could not be the mother from Gujiacun, but the Wushuang eldest princess.
Li Chunhua nodded. It is a blessing for elders to name their juniors, especially for someone with the status of the eldest princess. If the young master can gain her love, he will be able to walk sideways in the capital in the future.
only¡¡
Li Chunhua thought of something and suddenly bent down beside Qiao Lianlian and muttered a few words.
The smile on Qiao Lianlian's lips faded, and after a long while, she said softly, "That's not true, mother never mentioned it."
Li Chunhua was still a little worried and said hesitantly, "Do you want to make arrangements in advance?"
"No need." Qiao Lianlian refused almost reflexively.
Li Chunhua looked at her with some sympathy in her eyes, but more with emotion.
Rich people have their happiness, but they also have their troubles.
In the capital, most matrons begin arranging concubines for their husbands after they become pregnant.
Qiao Lianlian¡¯s whole pregnancy was fluctuating, and it didn¡¯t stop even after giving birth, so no one mentioned it.
But the Chinese New Year is almost here, which is the time when happy events come in pairs. Most matrons will arrange for new people to serve the head of the family during this season.
If it is the elders who make the arrangements, the candidate will not be too considerate, and may even be against the mistress.
It is better to strike first and arrange your own people directly, so as to silence the elders.
Li Chunhua was just reminding Qiao Lianlian.
Although the eldest princess Wushuang has been very gentle to Qiao Lianlian and loves the young master very much, after all, she is the mother-in-law, not the biological mother.
Seeing his son living in an empty house for a long time with no one to take care of him, it is inevitable that he will have other thoughts.
But Qiao¡¯s repeated resistance made Li Chunhua unable to say anything else.
It is not good to have too much status. You need to think too much and worry too much.??You have to be forced to accept these dirty things.
Think about Jiangchun, he is just a bodyguard, earning dozens of taels of silver every month, he is not rich but he can live a simple life, he has no father and no mother, no one forces him to marry a concubine.
Li Chunhua felt strangely comfortable.
For dinner, Qiao Lianlian ate a little less.
Li Chunhua knew it was because of what she said during the day, so she felt a little guilty and served her a bowl of pig's trotter soup, "No matter what, your body is the most important thing."
Qiao didn't say anything, and picked up the pig's trotters with two chopsticks.
Yu Feique sat next to him, looking puzzled.
When the new emperor ascended the throne, she, the eldest princess, moved out of the East Palace a long time ago. Now she no longer lives in her own mansion. She enjoys living in the Qingping County Prince's Mansion every day.
¡°Mom, why don¡¯t you eat?¡± she asked in a low voice.
Qiao Lian forced a smile and said, "I'm not hungry."
"Nonsense." Yu Feique looked unbelieving, "My mother used to chew a pig's trotter every day, then eat two bowls of noodles, and a big chicken drumstick. Tonight you only took two bites of pig's trotters, and you said you were full?"
Something is wrong, something very wrong.
But Yu Feique was so shrewd. Qiao Lian didn't want to say anything, so she didn't ask. After finishing the meal and clearing the table, she approached Li Chunhua and asked with a smile, "Aunt Chunhua, what's wrong with you today? Why don't you eat?" Xiangla, are you worried about something?"
Li Chunhua sighed, "Children don't understand, so don't ask too many questions."
"Oh, aunt, just tell me, tell me." Yu Feique used the trick of shaking her arms. If Li Chunhua hadn't been pregnant, she would have hung on Li Chunhua.
"Hey, you kid." Li Chunhua was really helpless and could only tell her a few words briefly, "Your mother is afraid that your father will marry a concubine, and she is a little worried."
Then he went to instruct the maid to wash the dishes and make Qiao Lianlian a late-night snack.
Yu Feique was left standing there, looking as if he had been struck by lightning.
What? Dad wants to take a concubine?
Mother is not even out of confinement yet, so he is going to take a concubine?
Yu Feique rushed out of Lianxinyuan in a daze, and met Yu Feizhong who was walking towards him.
Gu Lou has returned to the frontier, but Yu Feizhong is also a good helper.
Princess Hui rolled her eyes, took her brother aside and muttered for a while.
"What? Is this true?" Yu Feizhong was filled with anger and said with resentment, "Dad, do you really want to do this?"
"Don't be angry, dad hasn't done it yet." Yu Feique muttered, "Send the emperor brother here, so we can do this, this way we can stop dad then."
"Okay." Yu Feizhong agreed immediately.
The two siblings immediately walked boldly to Ji Yunshu's study. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
