Princess Baoer drank enough milk, closed her eyes and burped, and soon fell asleep.
Nurse Pang carefully placed Princess Bao'er on the bed and exited the door with Mrs. Wu.
Uncle Chang Ning immediately entered the bedroom and closed the door again.
Pang and Wu have a special room. The place is neatly tidied, the charcoal basin is always burning, and it is warm. Wearing a thin coat is enough. The two of them are here during the day, waiting to be summoned at any time to breastfeed Princess Bao'er.
Needless to say, the food and drink were all excellent.
Wu laughed quietly and said: "It has been less than two months since I entered the palace, and I have already gained weight."
Pangzi also smiled and said: "Isn't it? In the past, at home, you could only see meat and fish every few days, and you had to eat first after the men and children. When it came to me, it was considered good if I could only eat two or three bites. Now every day Chicken, fish, meat and eggs, delicious and delicious, this good life is like a dream.”
"There is also a monthly payment of ten taels of silver. After two years in the palace, we can save more than two hundred taels of silver, and we can build a new house when we return."
"Today I met the Emperor for the first time. The Emperor is younger and much more beautiful than I imagined."
"He's extra gentle and kind to us. He calls you and me by our names!"
For these two nannies who came from private backgrounds, this last item was even more inspiring than the generous monthly money. They couldn't explain the reason either. In short, the Wu family, who was used to being called Pang family, suddenly seemed vague and dim.
Osmanthus, green and green.
It feels like she has returned to the carefree boudoir, the time when she was a girl who was loved by her family... no, her waist is even straighter than that time.
That was the Ninth Five Emperor, the most noble person in the Liang Dynasty. It was a great honor to be called by her first name by the Emperor.
"We have to take good care of the princess in the future." Wu Guihua said in a low voice.
Pang Cuicui nodded vigorously: "After the emperor is finished confinement, he has to go to court to deal with national affairs. We will take good care of Princess Bao'er and not let the emperor be distracted."
In the dormitory, Jiang Shaohua was also talking to Cui Du about the two nannies: "When Chen Changshi selected the nannies that day, the criteria were that people from three generations had a clean family, had raised more than two children, and had a gentle and solid temperament. These two The nannies have chosen well.”
"Wu Guihua is a little bolder, and Pang Cuicui is a little more docile. Both of them are agile with their hands and feet, and they are also good at taking care of children."
Cui Du smiled and said: "The person selected by Chen Changshi will definitely be suitable."
Jiang Shaohua sighed softly: "I'm going to have a confinement period, and Chen Changshi has to worry about it again."
After all, Wang Jin is still young, and behind him is Prime Minister Wang and half of the Prime Minister's Party in both the government and the opposition. It can be reused, but it cannot be completely delegated. The only person who can truly trust him wholeheartedly is Chen Changshi.
Fortunately, Chen Changshi was here, so she could lie down on the bed with peace of mind.
……
Princess Bao'er's christening was particularly lively.
Empress Dowager Li personally came to perform the three baptism ceremonies, and the concubines in the harem also came to join in the fun. Empress Dowager Zheng was ill, so she asked her close confidants to send a generous gift.
Nurse Wu Guihua held Princess Bao'er in her arms, and the concubines took turns coming forward. When they arrived at Concubine Fan Gui, Concubine Fan Gui smiled and stretched out her hand to hug her.
Wu Guihua looked at Concubine Fan Gui's slightly vain smile and long nails, and refused without hesitation: "Princess Bao'er is still young, and the emperor has personally ordered that no one can hug her today."
Concubine Fan Gui did not expect that a little wet nurse would dare to refuse, and she was a little unhappy. She glanced at her and said, "I want to hold a baby in my arms. How dare you refuse!"
When Emperor Taikang was alive, Concubine Fan Gui was a favored noblewoman. When Emperor Taihe was on the throne, Concubine Fan Gui, as the biological mother of Prince Ping, had a different status in the harem than ordinary concubines. If Jiang Shaohua hadn't suddenly snatched the throne (Concubine Fan Gui never recognized Jiang Shaohua's rightful claim to the throne), Concubine Fan Gui would now be the Queen Mother in the palace. The arrogance and arrogance of being bossy can be seen at a glance who is superior to a nanny with a clear background.
Pang Cuicui was so frightened that she trembled.
Wu Guihua was also afraid, but she straightened her back: "The women of the common people are vulgar and don't know anything else. They only know how to listen to the emperor."
Concubine Fan Gui: "..."
Concubine Fan Gui was so angry that she was about to glare and lose her temper when Empress Dowager Li turned her head and looked over.
The warning meaning of this glance is very obvious. If you dare to make a scene during Princess Bao'er's baptism ceremony, the Aijia will not forgive you!
Concubine Fan Gui shut up angrily.
After Jiang Shaohua learned about this, his eyes became cold and he said to Chen Sheren beside him: "From now on, Concubine Fan Gui is not allowed to take even one step closer to Bao'er."
Chen Jinyu's face was filled with anger: "Just ban Concubine Fan Gui from coming to Zhaohe Palace."
Jiang Shaohua nodded slightly: "That's fine. I've told you that Concubine Fan Gui will not set foot in the Zhaohe Palace from now on."
With this dictation, Concubine Fan Gui's face was thrown to the ground.
Concubine Fan Gui had always been resentful about Jiang Shaohua's ascension to the throne. She was full of complaints in private and made frequent small moves, but she was suppressed by Empress Dowager Zheng.
Jiang Shaohua was just too lazy to argue with her. Now Concubine Fan Gui is actually trying to make a move on Bao'er, which also angers Jiang Shaohua.
If you don’t want face, then don’t want it!
Chen Jinyu was very excited: "By the way, should this oral edict pass through Jingyang Palace first?"
"No need," Jiang Shaohua said lightly: "Send an oral edict directly from the Zhaohe Palace and let everyone in the palace know."
……
What?
His Royal Highness Zhaohe issued an oral edict, reprimanding Concubine Fan Gui, and strictly ordered Concubine Fan Gui not to set foot in the Zhaohe Palace?
Empress Dowager Zheng, who was leaning on the soft pillow, sat up straight as if being pricked by needles: "What's going on?"
Eunuch Zhao hurriedly told the whole story in a low voice.
Empress Dowager Zheng was very angry: "Fan, this stupid woman! The Ai family had her grounded for three months before, but she only came out a few days ago and started causing trouble again."
He was also angry with Jiang Shaohua: "If there is such a thing, tell the Ai family, and the Ai family will automatically disgrace the Fan family. If you go beyond the Ai family and issue an order like this, where will the Ai family's face be put!"
After Jiang Shaohua ascended the throne, he almost never interfered in the harem. The entire harem is still the territory of Empress Dowager Zheng. Firstly, Jiang Shaohua did not have the free time to manage the harem, and secondly, he gave up part of his power to appease Empress Dowager Zheng.
This is also a tacit understanding between each other.
Now Jiang Shaohua's imperial edict has torn apart the appearance of peace. The emperor's strength reflected the gradual loss of power and weakness of Empress Dowager Zheng.
Eunuch Zhao hurriedly opened his mouth to comfort: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Your Majesty loves your daughter so much that you severely punish Concubine Fan Gui. Your Majesty has been lying in bed to recuperate, and the Emperor cannot bear to disturb your Majesty with such a trivial matter. Why should your Majesty worry too much."
Empress Dowager Zheng’s face was still ugly, and she sneered again and again: “Aijia knows clearly whether she is overly worried.”
"Go to the Zhaohe Palace and tell the emperor on behalf of the Ai family. The Ai family is not feeling well. The Ai family cannot afford to worry about the affairs of the harem in the future." (End of Chapter)
