Chapter 1933 Husband (rolling around asking for monthly tickets)
"The princess of the Guarjia clan..."
At the Prince of Zhi's Mansion, when the eldest prince returned home, he was invited to the main courtyard by Zhang and told about what happened in Ningshou Palace today.
"From what the Empress Dowager said, the wedding date should be very soon. So... should we prepare gifts according to the example of the Eighth Prince's Mansion last time?"
Zhang asked.
The eldest prince is still thinking about Furdan.
Among the civil nobility, duke is the highest.
The total number of people in the government offices in the capital does not exceed ten.
However, in recent years, the Guwalgiya clan has mainly relied on Gongpolpen. I don’t have a deep impression of this Fuerdan, and he seems to be in his early twenties.
Is this to elevate the Guwalja clan?
Come to think of it, this is not impossible.
Now, among the noble families of the upper three banners, the Tong family, the Niuhulu family, and the Hesheli family have all lost their posts as ministers of the imperial guard, and their sons have also been cleared out of the imperial guard and the Luanyi Guard.
Then we need to rebalance to avoid one company dominating the market.
After hearing what Zhang said, the eldest prince nodded and said, "Well, just follow the rules."
Zhang then talked about Concubine Wang's move to a new palace: "I looked through the account books this afternoon and there is no precedent for gifts for a noble moving to a new palace. But Concubine Wang is different after all. How should we prepare this gift?"
Although Concubine Wang was not decreed to be a concubine, she enjoyed the daily supplies of a concubine and also had servants led by half of the eunuchs.
During the visit to the Ningshou Palace, Concubine Wang also had a seat, sitting behind Concubine Min, and was basically no different from a concubine.
He really can't be regarded as an ordinary nobleman.
This time it was moved to Qixiang Palace and the main seat was reserved, so the gift could not be taken lightly.
The eldest prince knew why Zhang asked him and did not make a decision on his own. That was because this unprecedented matter did not concern their family.
The other princes' palaces will also follow this example.
He was impatient with these trivial matters, but when he thought of the obedience of the fifteenth prince and the cleverness of the sixteenth prince, he loved the house and the dog, so he said: "Let's reduce it by 20% according to the rules for the concubine's mother to move to the palace!"
Zhang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll have someone prepare according to what you said..."
At this point, she remembered what she was worried about, hesitated for a moment, and decided the importance of it.
"I know you're busy, but other princes' palaces have had many new babies in recent years, but our palace has been quiet for several years. The palace even gave a reward. You should stop staying in the study and go around the side courtyard more often. Let's not talk about others first. Princess Wang has served the queen for more than ten years. She has also made contributions by taking care of the third and fourth princesses in recent years. She is not young anymore..."
Zhang advised with some seriousness.
Wang was a senior palace maid in the Yanx Palace in the early years, and served Concubine Hui.
In the thirty-seventh year, the first wife passed away, and the princesses in the backyard were causing trouble. Wang happened to be of age and had to leave the palace, so Huifei took the initiative and awarded the eldest prince as a princess, asking him to take care of the young masters on Huifei's behalf.
Wang Gege was 24 when she left the palace, and she is 30 years old this year.
If she had married early, she would have become a grandmother at this age.
Zhang was willing to honor Wang Gege because she was respectful and was an old friend of her mother-in-law, so she was also happy to honor her.
The eldest prince glanced at Zhang and said, "You are so virtuous!"
The eldest prince was hoping to have a legitimate son. After he already had Hongyu, the eldest legitimate son, he was still hoping for a second legitimate son. So when he was in the backyard, he usually stayed in the main courtyard.
When Zhang was not feeling convenient, she would stay in the study and rarely go to the side courtyard.
Zhang whispered, "I know that Master is giving me respect, but I'm afraid that over time, the elders in the palace will blame me for being unvirtuous..."
The couple is about ten years apart in age, and when they are together in private, Zhang is more dependent on each other, unlike ordinary couples who respect each other like guests.
Seeing her like this, the eldest prince softened his heart. He glanced at her belly and said, "Don't worry, there's still a lot of time. I've discovered that sometimes God likes to be against us. The more you ask for something, the less it will come. Let's be more open-minded. If three years doesn't work, then five years will do. We still have a lot of time left..."
Zhang felt relieved and nodded, saying, "Yes, yes, Master treats me so well, I feel at ease, it doesn't matter if the child comes early or late..."
The eldest prince was vigorous and healthy, and Zhang herself was also strong and healthy. Zhang didn't believe that she would be unhappy all the time...

Prince Cheng’s Mansion, main courtyard.
The Third Lady expressed her guess, and the couple remained silent.
The Third Prince was thinking about the interactions he had with the Fifth Prince over the past few months.
"Could it be that I'm overthinking it? When the epidemic first broke out in Dongyue, Lao Wu was indeed not very friendly to me. Afterwards, I apologized, and it became normal. I didn't notice anything different."
The Third Lady said, "The Fifth Master is kind and tolerant, and he doesn't bear grudges. He must have figured it out. We didn't want this smallpox. It was a natural disaster. Our family made some mistakes, but we were punished... In addition to his legitimate son, he also has two or three illegitimate sons. He has no shortage of sons, but for the Fifth Lady, they are her lifeblood. I'm afraid she hates our family to death. I'm afraid this grudge can never be resolved."
The Third Prince sighed and said, "If it is really as you said, then it is reasonable for us to hate you."
The Third Lady felt guilty and said, "How about we prepare a generous gift to make amends?"
The Third Prince looked at her and said, "If you can't even inherit the title, it will hurt the Little Prince. It's hard to say whether he can stand firm. Can you compensate for this?"
The Third Lady rubbed her handkerchief and said, "We can't just do nothing. It would be a shame..."
The Third Prince thought for a moment and said, "I'll ask the Fifth Prince later to find out what the illness is. We'll buy some good herbs and prepare an extra portion... When the little prince grows up, we'll see how to compensate him..."
Thinking of her eldest daughter who had died and her aborted child, San Fu Jin couldn't help but have red eyes. She looked at San A Ge and said viciously, "If you hit me in the face again, I will teach you what a jealous woman is!"
The Third Prince couldn't bear to hear this.
If time could go back, he would like to slap his stupid self twice.
She lost her eldest daughter, abandoned her favorite concubine and illegitimate son, and left a bad impression of her father as a person who did not know how to manage the household.
His intestines were filled with regret.
He stood up and said, "Alright, alright, from now on, I won't be in charge of the affairs of the inner courtyard. It's up to you..."
After saying that, he walked out.
The Third Lady looked at his back and felt a chill in her heart.
If the Third Prince was a typical fickle person, then the Third Lady would not be afraid.
Princesses and concubines came one after another.
It just so happens that the Third Prince not only loves new things but also loves the old things, and that old thing is unique to him.
Apart from this old man, no one else can catch the Third Prince's attention.
The reason why the Third Lady couldn't tolerate Lady Tian before was because of this.
Now that Princess Tian has become Lady Tian, she has been listed in the imperial court with a nominal title, but has not been treated well. She has no chance of becoming a concubine either, but the Third Lady does not feel relieved.
To pay for a life with a life is what she hopes for.
Thinking of this, Sanfujin called the nanny in and asked, "How many months has Tian been pregnant?"
The nanny did some calculations in her mind and said, "I haven't changed my clothes since August. It's been seven and a half months..."
The Third Lady said, "Tell the kitchen to serve well and prepare food for her according to Master's rules, so as not to let her mouth suffer..."
The nanny hesitated for a moment, looked at the Third Lady, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Master, do you want to adopt Tian's son?"
The Third Lady sneered and said, "Of course you have to keep her under my nose..."
If she can’t give birth, then just give the eldest princess her life.
If the child was born, Tian would be guilty and naturally would not be able to raise the prince.
If she were given to someone else to raise, given the Third Prince's love for his wife and all his family members, there would be one more favorite concubine in the mansion.
A bastard son who can never be granted a title in his lifetime can just be raised by someone else.
By then, the one who will have trouble sleeping at night will be Tian...

The Fifth Beile's Mansion, the main courtyard.
When the Fifth Lady came back, she vomited blood.
Her face was ashen, she lay on the couch, not wanting to say anything.
If she were given a choice, she would rather die, but she didn't even have the chance to choose.
My little brother, my maternal relatives...
These are things she can't give up.
The Fifth Prince came back late. When he came out of the South Study, the eunuchs from the Ningshou Palace were waiting outside, so he went to the Ningshou Palace.
When we returned to the Prince's Mansion, it was already dusk.
The Fifth Prince thought about it and decided to head towards the main courtyard.
He felt very uncomfortable.
Everyone has different degrees of closeness and distance.
During these few months, he had convinced himself to accept that his legitimate son was ill and that his eldest son would support the family.
Now another concubine has fallen.
The situation of Hongsheng, the eldest son of a concubine, became increasingly embarrassing.
But he also knew that his wife was not a strong-willed person and was afraid that she would get stuck in a rut and become unable to get over it.
When he saw that the upper room was pitch black, the Fifth Prince was frightened and took a few quick steps and pushed the door open.
The young eunuch holding a lantern hurriedly followed behind.
"Fu Jin..."
The Fifth Prince rushed to the west room where the Fifth Lady usually lived.
The little eunuch's lantern caught up in time, and there was finally light in the room.
There was a person lying on the south kang, motionless.
The Fifth Prince hurried forward, not daring to breathe.
Only when he saw that the Fifth Lady had her eyes open and was staring at him did the Fifth Prince breathe a sigh of relief.
Immediately, he noticed something was wrong.
The Fifth Lady’s face was swollen.
"What happened? Who hit you?"
The Fifth Prince saw it clearly and became furious immediately.
Hit someone but don't slap them in the face.
Husband and wife are one.
The Fifth Lady is his wife, who dares to attack his wife?
