Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Yinzhen is only three years old, and although he looks small...

Yinzhen is only three years old, and although he looks small, he still has some weight. Wen Shan picked him up from the snow, weighed him, and thought about the distance between Xianfu Palace and Cining Palace, and decided to let the eunuch Baoquan go to call for the sedan chair.

When she went out today, she wanted to enjoy the snow scenery and walked here, but Yinzhen's condition now cannot let him walk back.

Baoquan went to call for the sedan chair, and Wen Shan held Yinzhen to the corridor and waited. The bump on Yinzhen's forehead was now a little red and swollen, and his knees did not look comfortable after kneeling for so long.

"Zhenzhu, go to the Imperial Hospital to summon the imperial physician to wait in Xianfu Palace." Wen Shan tightened Yinzhen's cloak and instructed.

"Yes."

Zhenzhu bowed and hurried out. Wenshan called her again: "You don't have to come later. Go back to the palace to boil some hot water and prepare some food."

Zhenzhu nodded. Not long after she left, Baoquan came back with the sedan chair. Another personal maid of Wenshan, Feicui, protected Wenshan and carried Yinzhen into the sedan chair.

Yinzhen didn't say a word the whole time, just obediently letting her do whatever she wanted, with his eyes drooping.

Wenshan sighed and touched his head, saying softly: "Go to Empress Xuan and let the imperial physician take a look, then take a bath, eat something and sleep." Yinzhen

nodded and said sullenly: "Thank you, Empress Xuan."

The child was in a bad mood, so Wenshan didn't force him to speak, but just held him. The young master in the sedan chair was injured, and the eunuchs carrying the sedan chair were much faster than usual, and they arrived in a short while.

Wen Shan wanted to carry Yinzhen in, but Yinzhen struggled to get down from her arms and said seriously: "I'm fine, I can walk by myself."

Seeing the persistence on his little face, Wen Shan followed him, squatted down to straighten his hat that was a little crooked when he was sitting in the sedan chair, took his hand and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go in."

Yinzhen nodded and followed Wen Shan into Xianfu Palace.

He had never been to Xianfu Palace before. This area was usually quiet and now it was even quieter with the snow. The vermilion palace gate was already open, and several palace maids and eunuchs were waiting at the door. When they saw them coming back, they hurried to greet them.

"Master, you are back." Zhenzhu came up and said, "Doctor Zhang has arrived and is waiting in the hall. The hot water is ready. I will help the fourth prince take a bath later."

Yinzhen took Wenshan's hand and walked into Xianfu Palace for the first time. There were several trees planted in the front yard. Now they were still bare, but many paper-cuts were hung on them. From a distance, they looked like a red plum blossom. There were many flower beds on both sides. There was a swing in the southeast corner of the wall. There were several palace lanterns with koi painted on them under the eaves of the corridor. Several eunuchs and palace maids surrounded them and talked to Concubine Xuan. From their close expressions, it was known that Concubine Xuan treated them very well.

It was a very beautiful place full of fireworks.

When they entered the house, a warm air rushed up. Doctor Zhang was already waiting there. Seeing Wenshan and Yinzhen bowed, Wenshan took off Yinzhen's cloak and carried him to the bed.

"Doctor Zhang, please help the Fourth Prince."

"Your Majesty, it's serious. This is my humble servant's job." Doctor Zhang leaned forward and felt Yinzhen's pulse and looked at the wounds on his forehead and knees.

Wen Shan was a little anxious: "How is it? Is it nothing serious?"

Doctor Zhang touched his beard and put away his pulse and replied: "Don't worry, your Majesty, the forehead and knees are just skin injuries. Apply some medicine and rest for two days. It's just that the Fourth Prince has a cold. I prescribe two doses of medicine. I think he will be fine after taking it."

Wen Shan was relieved. Zhenzhu took Doctor Zhang out to get medicine, and Feicui came in with the freshly cooked ginger soup and the fried milk that Wen Shan had made before going out.

The fried milk was made for the two ancestors, but Wen Shan simply fried some more based on the principle of doing everything. She originally wanted to have it as a snack while reading in the afternoon. Yinzhen happened to be here, and the children should like these desserts.

Yinzhen sat on the couch and saw a lot of small things on the table early in the morning, including a few travel novels, a half-woven rattan rabbit, and a lifelike kitten pillow thrown in the corner.

Although it looked messy, it made people feel a little happy.

Wen Shan originally wanted to use fried milk to coax Yinzhen to drink ginger soup and take medicine, but unexpectedly, there was no need for coaxing at all. Yinzhen picked up the bowl and drank it all by himself, frowning bitterly without saying a word.

As expected of the strong and unyielding Emperor Yongzheng, he has been a ruthless person since childhood.

But Yinzhen was still very interested in the plate of golden and fragrant fried milk. His eyes couldn't help but glance at it, but he was embarrassed to speak.

Wen Shan looked at it funny and pushed the fried milk over: "Eat it, it was prepared for you."

Yinzhen pursed his lips. Although he wanted to eat it, he still thanked her politely before picking up a piece of fried milk, and then his eyes lit up.

Wen Shan held her chin up to his head and looked at him: "Is it delicious?"

Yinzhen nodded with a slightly red face and whispered: "Delicious."

He had never eaten this dessert before. It was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the milk was smooth and slightly sweet and melted in his mouth.

Wen Shan was very satisfied. Sure enough, her cooking skills could conquer everyone from a 60-year-old man to a three-year-old child!

No one who ate it said it was bad.

Yinzhen ate up the small dish of fried milk and then lowered his head in shame. Did he show too much greed for food

? But he didn't expect that Concubine Xuan was so happy

that she kept praising him for eating it all to give him face. Yinzhen was also a little happy to be praised by her, thinking that no matter who came, Concubine Xuan's cooking skills would definitely be eaten up.

After drinking the medicine, Zhenzhu took Yinzhen to take a bath. Wen Shan picked up the half-woven rattan rabbit and had just made it for a while when Baoquan came in.

"Master, the imperial concubine sent someone to deliver some things for the fourth prince."

It was about time to come.

"Please come in."

The person who came from Chengqian Palace was the personal nanny of Concubine Tong Jia, whose surname was Chen. Nanny Chen bowed to Wen Shan and then said, "The Concubine asked me to bring some personal items for the Fourth Prince, fearing that he would not be able to adapt to the new residence."

Wen Shan looked at Nanny Chen, who was followed by two young palace maids, holding some clothes and daily necessities in their hands.

Zhenzhu took the items and moved a chair over.

Wen Shan smiled and said, "Madam, please sit down."

Madam Chen was very polite and bowed her body and replied, "Thank you for your kindness, Concubine Xuan. Concubine Gui still has something to tell me, and I have to hurry back."

"Concubine Gui is pregnant and has no time to take care of the Fourth Prince. Concubine Xuan can lend a helping hand, and Concubine Gui is very relieved. But Concubine Xuan is really not feeling well and cannot come to visit the Fourth Prince in person. I hope Concubine Xuan can take the Fourth Prince to Chengqian Palace from time to time to show her filial piety. After giving birth, she will definitely reward you handsomely when she takes the Fourth Prince back."

Wen Shan listened to these sarcastic words without changing her expression. She just smiled and said, "Of course."

After Madam Chen left, Pearl said angrily, "Master, listen to what she said. It's as if she was afraid that we would snatch the Fourth Prince away."

Feicui was also indignant, "She said so much but she didn't even mention that she liked the Fourth Prince. I really don't know if she was sincere or false."

"That's enough." Wen Shan interrupted them and reminded them: "Don't say these things in front of the Fourth Prince. Be careful in the future."

Zhenzhu and Feicui nodded.

"Since the emperor and the two ancestors have entrusted the fourth prince to me for care, we should do our best. After the imperial concubine gives birth, we will just listen to the emperor's arrangements."

Although Wen Shan knew that the three-year-old little bean in front of her was the future famous champion of the nine sons' succession, the next emperor, she had no intention of getting close to him and currying favor with him.

She had been here for more than two years and had never had any intersection with Yinzhen.

The reason was that the script she got was enough for her to lie down.

With a prominent status and in history, Concubine Xuan lived to the Qianlong Dynasty without any disasters, so there was no need to get involved in these things.

So she was very calm about Yinzhen and treated him as an ordinary child.

"How many months has the imperial concubine been pregnant?" Wen Shan suddenly thought of something.

Zhenzhu thought for a while: "It's been four months. The imperial concubine did have some troubles because it was her first child."

In history, Concubine Tong Jia gave birth to a princess in the 22nd year of Kangxi, but the child died before full term.

It was only the 20th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. Wen Shan estimated that Concubine Tong Jia's child was most likely aborted before birth, otherwise it would not have been recorded in history.

Then Yinzhen would not have to wait for six months before he could be taken back.

Thinking of this, Wen Shan felt a little sad. Concubine Tong Jia had a hard time carrying this baby, and the next one died young. It was hard not to say that it was because she and Emperor Kangxi were close relatives.

But now it is normal for cousins to marry.

Nanny Chen returned to Chengqian Palace. Concubine Tong Jia was taking a nap on the bed. She was sleeping a little unsteadily and suddenly woke up to see that Nanny Chen had returned.

Concubine Tong Jia rubbed her sore brows and sat up. The maidservant beside her hurriedly put a cushion on her and opened the bead curtain.

"Mammy is back. What did Concubine Xuan say?"

Mammy Chen felt very distressed when she saw her master's tired look. She stepped forward and personally offered a cup of ginseng tea and said, "Don't worry, Madam. In my opinion, Madam Xuan is honest and has no wrong thoughts. It is really difficult for Madam to be pregnant this time, so it is better to entrust the Fourth Prince to him."

Concubine Tong Jia drank a sip of ginseng tea, frowned slightly, and she looked much more haggard because of her frail body.

"How is the prince? Did the emperor say anything?"

This morning, someone came to report that Yinzhen and the prince had a dispute. The prince kicked Yinzhen down the stairs in anger and fainted from anger. The emperor was very angry. The Empress Dowager found out and called the emperor over. Yinzhen was also punished by the emperor to kneel in the Cining Palace.

Upon hearing this, Imperial Concubine Tong Jia almost lost her temper. She often accompanied the Emperor and naturally knew how much the Emperor doted on the Crown Prince. This time, Yinzhen had made a big mistake and was likely to be disliked by the Emperor.

And now she was pregnant, so after thinking it over again and again, she still did not go to the Cining Palace, although she was a little worried about Yinzhen.

Nanny Chen gave Imperial Concubine Tong Jia another hand warmer and said, "I have heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has woken up and is fine. The Emperor knew that the Empress was pregnant and had a hard time, but he didn't say anything."

"Then... why did you take Yinzhen away from me? Do you think I am an unkind mother?" Imperial Concubine Tong Jia's brows were full of worry. Now she came to her senses and was a little worried that the Emperor thought she was mean to Yinzhen.

"Your Majesty, you worry too much." Nanny Chen comforted her: "I heard from the gossip in the Cining Palace that the Emperor personally told the Fourth Prince that he was unstable and had no filial piety. He was not suitable to be kept in our palace for fear of disturbing your pregnancy." "

In my opinion, the emperor is worried about you, so it's better to send the fourth prince away now, so that the emperor won't come to Chengqian Palace and see that the fourth prince is angry and then take his anger out on you."

Imperial Concubine Tong Jia was shocked: "Did the emperor really say such harsh words to Yinzhen?

" Nanny Chen nodded: "It's true, the emperor is angry."

Imperial Concubine Tong Jia's heart sank all of a sudden. The baby in her belly was still unknown, and the adopted son was rejected by the emperor...

Nanny Chen saw that Imperial Concubine Tong Jia looked unhappy and thought she was still worried about not going to plead for the fourth prince. She comforted her: "Your Majesty, don't forget that the fourth prince's biological mother on the jade plate is still Depin. She didn't go to plead, so it

's naturally not our fault." Speaking of Depin, Imperial Concubine Tong Jia was even more depressed: "Depin is proud now. She just got the sixth prince last year. With a new support, she is naturally afraid to avoid Yinzhen."

"So it's better for the Fourth Prince to be raised by Concubine Xuan, rather than returning to Yonghe Palace." Nanny Chen saw that Imperial Concubine Tong Jia's thoughts had finally shifted, and she quickly struck while the iron was hot.

After talking for a while, Imperial Concubine Tong Jia felt a little tired again. She raised her hand and said tiredly: "I can't care about so many things now, you guys can leave first."

Nanny Chen instructed the palace maids to wait for Imperial Concubine Tong Jia to rest before leaving.

At this time in Xianfu Palace, Yinzhen, who had just finished bathing and changed into a snow-white nightgown, was staring at the pile of delicious dishes on the table and drooling silently. Wen Shan rolled up her sleeves and personally brought in a bowl of yellow peach honey soup.

"Okay, the dishes are ready, let's eat!"
