Chapter 2053 Picking up people
The Fourth Lady did not respond.
One by one, they were spoiled by these princes themselves.
He only thought about protecting his concubine, fearing that she would be bullied by his wife.
Now that you have broken the rules and damaged your reputation, do you feel regretful?
It's a pity for those spoiled women. They were all selected from the lowest classes. They were well-behaved and knew the hierarchy, but in the end, they all ended up in a bad ending.
The Fourth Lady was secretly dissatisfied in her heart, but she also knew the seriousness of the matter.
Instead of waiting for the emperor to point out the concubine who was born into a noble family, it is better to promote Li Gege.
Li Gege's frivolity and vulgarity have been exposed to others, and she has also grown old.
The Second Princess is intelligent, but the Second Prince looks ordinary.
It is not a bad thing for the Fourth Lady to have such a person occupy the position of concubine.
If there really were to be a concubine like Fucha or Guaerjia, who was young and had a good family background, the life of the Fourth Concubine would be difficult.
However, the Fourth Prince values his reputation and will not ask for a title too early. He will always watch what other princes' palaces do.
Something had happened to Lady Tian from Prince Cheng's Mansion, and so had Lady Liu from the Fifth Prince's Mansion. The only ones who were qualified to be appointed as concubines were Lady Li from her own family and Lady Nala from the Seventh Prince's Mansion.
Among the children born to the couple, the second princess was the eldest.
The time when Li was asked to be given a title should have been before the second princess' marriage proposal.
The Second Princess is nine years old this year, and the selection of candidates for her husband will start at least when she is sixteen, which is seven years later.
Forty-nine years...
The Fourth Lady knew what was going on, and became more calm. She said to the Fourth Prince, "I heard that the Tenth Uncle is going to ask for a name for their eldest prince. So, shouldn't our Second and Third Princes also ask for names?"
The two younger princes were both born in 1949, one year older than the eldest prince of Prince Dun’s Mansion.
The Fourth Prince nodded and said, "Then I will submit my memorial after the tenth round is finished."
Speaking of the youngest prince's name, the Fourth Prince thought of the Fifth Prince's legitimate son.
The little prince over there is the same age as his second and third sons, and is one month older. It is time for him to be given a name.
However, I don’t know if Lao Wu still remembers this, or has other plans…

The next day, the Ninth Prince got up early.
When the emperor is not in the garden, the departments will not take turns on duty in the garden.
He also had to go back to the capital to report for duty at the Lifanyuan.
"My Lord and Old Ten will not be back tonight. We will return to Haidian tomorrow morning..."
The Ninth Prince yawned and gave instructions to Shushu.
Shu Shu asked curiously, "Are you asking all the princes to accompany the emperor again?"
The Ninth Prince nodded and shook his head, "Not all the princes. The Crown Prince is in the West Garden and did not return to the capital this time. The Twelfth Prince is not among them. The others will have to follow suit."
Shushu smiled and said, "The emperor values his sons more and more."
The Ninth Prince curled his lips and muttered quietly: "Let's not torment the children like this in the future. Isn't this just idle?"
Shushu also whispered: "This is also love and respect. The emperor not only cares more and more about his old ministers, but also values his sons more and more."
Especially when entering or leaving the capital, he would always keep his sons by his side and keep an eye on them.
Gee...
Thoughtful...
The Ninth Prince blinked and said, "Is that so? But I didn't ask you to do anything, it's like you're just making up the numbers!"
Shushu hung the sachet on the Ninth Prince and said, "Master, think about the number of times you saw the emperor in the past and the number of times you see the emperor now. Is there any difference?"
The Ninth Prince nodded and said, "Yes, a lot more. Just look at me and you'll know. The other brothers have been to the Imperial Court no less often than I have."
The Ninth Prince knows his own limitations.
Among the eleven adult princes, his number of appearances before the emperor was still the lowest, only slightly better than the Tenth Prince, the Twelfth Prince, and the Fourteenth Prince.
After breakfast, the Ninth Prince reunited with the Tenth Prince and returned to the city.
Shushu was here, with Mrs. Bo, preparing to show off their children.
It means sunbathing in the real sense.
Around the beginning of the morning, when the sun was still weak, I took my little brother to the backyard to bask in the sun to supplement calcium.
Two quarters of an hour in the morning, and another two quarters of an hour after noon.
The head is positioned under the umbrella to protect the eyes from sunburn.
When the Ninth Princess came over, she saw Shushu and Mrs. Bo sitting in the yard watching the child.
"So fat?"
When the Ninth Princess saw the young prince, she couldn't take her eyes off him.
The little prince was just full of baby fat, and looked like a doll in a New Year picture, round and plump.
He was awake now, stretching his arms and legs. When he heard the sound, he turned his head to look over, looking very interesting.
Shushu and Mrs. Bo stood up and greeted the Ninth Princess.
Baiguo was smart and moved the chairs so that the host and the guests could sit back down.
However, Lady Bo looked at the time and thought it was almost time, so she took the wet nurse to settle the little prince and also made room for them to talk.
Shu Shu carefully looked at Jiu Gege and saw that she looked rosy. She said, "She looks good. The Empress Dowager can rest assured now."
Jiugege just came out of the North Garden and looked down at her abdomen with a complicated expression. She said, "It's weird. I'm not pregnant yet, but I feel different..."
Shushu said: "It's novel the first time, but it will be fine the next time."
Life is scary.
In the process of growing bones and flesh, there are not only physical changes, but also emotional changes.
According to later generations, the baby in the belly will produce a self-protection mechanism at this time, which will make the pregnant woman's maternal love overflow and make her love the child dearly.
This is why when encountering a difficult delivery, the mother would not think of giving up the baby but of keeping it.
This is clearly against human nature, what a terrible self-protection, I can't think too much about it.
Jiu Gege laughed when she heard this and said, "It just came to me now, Jiusao will tell you about the next time."
Shushu smiled and said, "If you are happy, there will be no shortage of food..."
She said it lightly, and Jiugege's fear of giving birth was reduced a little.
She smiled and said, "Let me take a look first. I wonder if he will look like my uncle or my uncle..."
If he looked like my uncle, that would be fine. But if he looked like my uncle...
The Ninth Princess had not thought about the question of whether to have a boy or a girl before, but now that she thinks about appearance, she feels that the younger prince is better.
If the daughter looks like her uncle, she will probably have to prepare more dowry.
"These past few days, Madam has been so excited that she can't wait to come to my side and nag me every day, calling me the eldest grandson and the eldest granddaughter..."
Jiugege couldn't help but complain to Shushu about her mother-in-law: "You are so eager to have a legitimate grandson and granddaughter, why did you find several maids for your husband? You are afraid that you won't have a concubine's grandson..."
Shu Shu said: "When you get older, you tend to be nagging. If you don't want to see me, then don't let me greet you."
Pregnant women are the biggest.
The Ninth Princess covered her mouth and laughed, saying, "Madam is not even forty yet..."
Shushu thought about Buxi's age, two years younger than Jiugege, and said, "I forgot about that. How could he act so foolishly when he's so young?"
She is not yet forty, and was even younger two years ago. However, she has been acting like a confused old lady in the past two years. Even someone as good-tempered as Jiugege can't stand it anymore.
The Ninth Princess sneered, "What else? You're afraid of wronging your husband, so you're just pretending to be crazy and stupid!"
Shu Shu: "..."
Is it considered unfair to take fewer concubines and maids? !
The issue between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is indeed different for everyone.
Shushu didn't want to talk about this anymore, so she changed the subject and said, "Did your husband send you here? I guess he's staying with you in Haidian these days?"
The Ninth Princess said, "Yesterday, Khan Ama summoned my husband, and he went to Shengjing today..."
Shushu remembered the Ninth Prince's words about the title of the Hesheli family.
Should the Tong family give up the first-class public loan that was previously reserved for them?
"Are you going to bring the old master to the capital, or do you have a candidate for the succession to the title?"
Shu Shu asked.
Like the Ninth Prince, she doesn't like Shun Anyan.
Thinking that he should have been the Ninth Princess's husband, Shushu felt a little weird.
That is also a serious illness.
He was not close to the Fourth Prince, his brother-in-law, but instead stood on the side of the Eighth Prince and was part of the "Eighth Prince's Party".
The Ninth Princess shook her head and said, "It seems that they haven't made a decision yet. They didn't mention the old master, but only asked the Prince Consort to bring a few uncles back to Beijing..."
Tong Guowei and his entire family were inside the wicker wall and were not allowed to go out.
He originally had eight sons, but the first four were gone. The eldest and second sons were still alive, and the third son was Longkodo. The fourth son had no heir, and the last four sons were all young illegitimate sons who were still young when they left the capital.
However, after a few years, the sons who were young before have now almost grown up.
Shushu heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Shun Anyan is excluded from the list of inheriting the title!
You know, Tong Guowei also has a granddaughter, Princess Niuhulu, who was engaged to Fusong.
That princess's half-brother inherited the title from Alinga and became a second-class duke.
The status of the eldest princess also rose rapidly. Originally, she was a concubine living in her maternal family, but later news came back to the capital that the old master had decided to marry her to his cousin Shun Anyan.
If Shun Anyan Chengjue, the couple would inevitably meet each other in the future when they come back, which would be very frustrating.
It’s great that the couple can’t come back now.
Jiu Gege was also thankful, and said to Shushu: "Fortunately, Shun Anyan was allowed to stay and serve the old master, otherwise it would make people uncomfortable."
The Ninth Princess already has a child, so she is not so shy about talking about her early marriage with Shun Anyan, but she also doesn't want others to talk about it.
Shu Shu thought of something and said, "What about the mansion? There is no idle mansion in the capital now?"
Originally, the two mansions of the Tong family were next to each other, but after the Ninth Princess was demoted, the Emperor ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to convert Tong Guowei's mansion into a princess' mansion, and gave the idle land next to it to Bu Xi as a prince consort's mansion.
This is also the reason why Longkodo lived in the official residence in the imperial city when he returned to Beijing.
Jiugege said: "Let's circle another place."
There probably are no existing mansions, otherwise the three princes' mansions could be directly rebuilt instead of building new ones.
Shushu raised an eyebrow.
By that time, the Tong family of the Xianghuang Banner lived far away, and naturally became two families.
Besides, the current head of the Tong family, Orondai, looks down on illegitimate children. He treats his illegitimate brother as a slave, and he probably doesn't even look at his illegitimate cousins from the next room.
The emperor probably did not choose Shun Anyan on purpose.
The descendants of the three families of the upper three banners are so prominent that an orphan girl from a concubine's family calls herself the "daughter of the Phoenix Nest" and is pure and innocent. In a few years, the head of the family has changed and their status has improved.
The backbone of the "Nine Dragons Fight for Succession" was originally these foreign relatives and the impoverished royal family. Now that the foreign relatives are seriously injured, the power to fight for succession is reduced by half...
