Giving birth?
I don’t know what to give birth to? Can you be safe and sound...
Zhu Cihong and Wu Sanfu became nervous at the same time. These days, women have to go through hell when giving birth. If they are able to do so safely, it is because their ancestors have blessed them.
In addition, having a boy or a girl is another headache.
Because Zhu Cixi broke the common practice of choosing a son for a concubine and married a wealthy family such as a warlord or the richest man, the benefits were obvious. He could draw on the strength and financial resources of his father-in-law. But it's not without trouble - palace fights are inevitable!
Even if Wu Sanmei and Zheng Chagu don't want to fight, the families behind them will push them to fight in the palace.
Between the two wealthy families, the Wu family and the Zheng family, Zhu Cixiang actually leaned towards the Wu family. At first, Wu Sanmei was his wife, and the two of them went through hardships together.
Secondly, the Wu family's strength is a bit weak, and a two-state master or something like that is useless. The few servants of the Wu family have long been digested by Zhu Cihong, and they are just short-term princes... Wu Sangui, who slipped away to the northwest somewhere, still has strength, but Wu Sangui has zero influence on the center of the Ming Dynasty.
In addition, Wu Xiang, an old man, was afraid of his wife, so he had no concubines and few children. And Wu Sanfeng and Wu Sangui were not on the Ming Dynasty side.
So they are Wu Xiang and Wu Sanfu. And Wu Xiang is old, and another ten or eight years is about the same. Wu Sanfu is a mediocre person. He is satisfied with being a wealthy uncle and does not have too much ambition at all.
Therefore, Zhu Cixiang could confidently and boldly promote Wu Xiang and Wu Sanfu to the positions of father-in-law and uncle-in-law. I also set an example for the heroes who have overcome difficulties - although this prince is the reincarnation of Taizu Emperor Gao, he is very interested in the heroes, so everyone can rest assured.
But Zheng Zhilong's side is different. Old Zheng is a big pervert, with a wife and a wife who can make up half a platoon, and he has twenty or thirty children. Moreover, Zheng Zhilong also had two younger brothers (one died) and a bunch of nephews and nieces... That was really strength in numbers!
Even if Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Sen don't live long, there are still a lot of Zheng family nephews who can become high officials.
In addition, the Zheng family is very powerful! Not only do they have as many as 30,000 naval officers, but they are also the richest people in the world. They must be strictly divided into classes, but they belong to the evil bourgeoisie...
Can Zhu Cixi not be on guard against the Zheng family?
So Prince Zhu had been having trouble with Zheng Chagu for so long, and he couldn't bear to say anything. He also used the excuse that Chagu was young and didn't understand the rules in the palace...Wu Sanmei had rules? Is it different that he just followed Zhu Cixiang without any training? And she is not much older than Tea Girl. They are both naive little girls, so fresh and delicious!
But it's one thing to guard against the Zheng family, it's another thing to clearly suppress the Zheng family.
If Wu Sanmei gave birth to a son, no one would be able to say anything about her becoming a concubine. But if he can't give birth to a son... then Zhu Cixiang can't always ignore Zheng Chagu!
If Zheng Chagu had a son first, Zhu Cihong would be in a bit of a dilemma!
So Zhu Cixiang asked his ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang for blessings all the way out of the university campus - he must let his third sister have a son! Of course, the most important thing is that Wu Sanmei is safe and sound...
When he returned to the gate of Wenhua Hall in the Imperial City, before he got off the horse, he heard the cry of a baby and the hearty laughter of a man.
"Ha ha ha ha......"
This is Emperor Chongzhen laughing!
When Zhu Cihong heard this, his heart skipped a beat. Damn it, if Chongzhen is so happy, he must have a granddaughter!
Thinking of this, he quickly got off the horse, entered the courtyard in three steps and two steps, and then went straight to the main hall of Wenhua Hall - the so-called Wenhua Hall is actually a row of taller tile-roofed houses, not three A palace like the Great Hall.
The middle part of this row of tile-roofed houses is built relatively tall, which is the so-called main hall. On both sides of the main hall are the residences of Zhu Cihong and several selected attendants. The east side is called Dongnuan Pavilion, which is the residence of Zhu Cihong and Wu Sanmei. On the west side is Xinuang Pavilion, where Zheng Chagu, Ning Xiangyu and Fei Zhen'e all live, each with a room. Speaking of the current housing conditions, they are really not as good as when we were in Dakongfang.
In the Wenhua Palace, Emperor Chongzhen was holding a swaddling baby and rocking it there. I wonder if he wanted to shake the baby to faint? Empress Zhou followed him. When she saw Zhu Cixiang coming in, she quickly took the child from Chongzhen's hands and carried her to her son.
"Brother Chun, she is a girl..."
"Hahaha..." Chongzhen burst into laughter again, "Hello, my dear, my dearest! I like my granddaughter the most..."
You fool! How can my granddaughter be the heir? Is it difficult for the Ming Dynasty to have a female emperor?
Zhu Cixiang really has the urge to usurp the throne right away!
"Brother Chun," Zhou Hou spoke at this time, saying softly, "You and Third Sister are still young and have plenty of opportunities, so don't be in a hurry."
As she said that, she sent a baby with a flushed face who had been shaken unconscious by Chongzhen (actually fell asleep) to Zhu Cixiang, and asked Zhu Cixiang to hold her child.
When the soft baby was held in the hands of Prince Zhu, the original frustration caused by not getting a son had been swept away. An indescribable father's love surged out of Zhu Cihong's heart like a spring.
Zhou Hou said again: "Brother Chun, let's go see Third Sister..."
"Oh." Zhu Cixiang responded, handed the child to his mother Zhou Hou, and walked quickly to Dongnuan Pavilion, still thinking: I wonder how the third sister is doing? It doesn't matter if I didn't give birth to a son this time, as long as my health is fine.
"Wow..."
Before Zhu Cixiang entered Dongnuan Pavilion, he heard Wu Sanmei's angry cry. It seemed that there was a little girl crying with her. I don't know who it was?
The prince quickly quickened his pace and walked into a small room in Dongnuan Pavilion that was used as a delivery room.
There were a bunch of women in the room, all surrounding Wu Sanmei, who was sitting on the embroidered pier and crying, trying to persuade her. Zhu Cixiang looked around and saw that Ning Xiangyu, Fei Zhen'e and Zheng Chagu were all there. Zhu Cixiang's sister, Princess Zhu Ainao of Kunxing, was also in the room. Wu Sanmei was holding Zheng Chagu's waist and crying, while Zheng Chagu was holding Sanmei's big face plate and crying too! It looks quite sad...I don’t know if I’m really crying or if I’m pretending to shed tears?
Zhu Ayao was the first to notice that Zhu Cixiang was coming. She rubbed her eyes and shouted: "Brother Prince, you are here. Sister Wu is so pitiful. She gave birth to a daughter..."
"What are you talking about, sister? What's so pitiful about giving birth to a daughter?" Zhu Cixiang walked forward with a smile, came to Wu Sanmei, and whispered, "Sanmei, please don't cry. I love my son and daughter."
I like it, but he can't make a princess!
"Third sister, please stop crying. Mr. Qiantose said that he also likes his daughter..." Teagu Zheng is still young and doesn't understand anything. She has no idea why she is crying and she is still trying to persuade her.
"Yes, yes," Zhu Cixiang nodded quickly, "Third sister, we are still young. We didn't give birth to a son this time. We will continue to work hard next time!"
Zheng Chagu was still there to help, "Yes, third sister, let's work hard together!"
"Wow..." Wu Sanmei cried even more sadly when she heard that Zheng Chagu had to work hard.
Zhu Cixi didn't know what to say. He really had to work hard with Zheng Chagu. He couldn't just ignore her all the time, right? Such a cute little girl, so fresh and beautiful... But if she has a son before Wu Sanmei, should she be made the princess?
