Chapter 126 Imperial Concubine
Chapter 126 Imperial Concubine
"Empress Hefei, you have just given birth to a child. Crying like this is not good for your health."
Fat Orange quickly helped Su He wipe the tears from her face. "Wei Lin is right, Xiao He, don't cry. All babies look like this when they are born, and our baby is already much prettier than other children."
[You're lying. It's not like I haven't seen newborn babies on TV before. They look exactly like this.]
"My lady, this child changes every day. He will be good-looking in two days."
"Yes, sister, the emperor and Doctor Wei are right. My nephew was much uglier than this when he was born. I disliked him at first, but after a few days, he became cuter and cuter."
"Sister Xia is right, sister. My brother was also very ugly when he was born. Your child is already very handsome."
Su He nodded and took the little princess from the emperor's arms. "Your Majesty, have you named the two children?"
"The Sixth Prince will be named Hongzhou. How about you come up with the name for the little princess?"
[What's good about it? There's no creativity at all. Why is he still called Hongzhou? Can't the Sixth Prince have a different name? This name is the same as the name of Zhen Huan's child in the drama. It sounds a bit disgusting.]
Fat Orange:...
"If you don't like the name of the Sixth Prince, I have thought of several alternatives. You can choose. If you really don't like the name I came up with, how about you come up with the name of our Sixth Prince?"
[Is it so obvious? How does Fat Orange know that I don’t like this name? ]
"What other names has the emperor prepared?"
Fatty Orange's brain was spinning at high speed, "I have also prepared three words: Jing, Qi, and Cheng."
"All three words are good. Your Majesty, please choose any one of them. I like them all."
"Then I will use the character Qi, and Xiaoliu will be called Hong Qi from now on."
Su He nodded in agreement, "Your Majesty, how about you come up with the princess's name? If I don't like it, we can change it?"
"Wei Lin, when was the princess born?"
"Your Majesty, I was born when the sun rose."
"Then let's call her Chaoyang, Princess Chaoyang."
As long as it's not the same name as the character in the play, she's fine with it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the names you bestowed upon me. I like both of my children's names very much."
"Xiao He, you have suffered so much and been hurt so much in order to bear a child for me. I will make you an imperial concubine."
Before Su He could react, everyone knelt down to congratulate him.
Congratulations, Imperial Noble Consort. Congratulations, Imperial Noble Consort.
Su He was very upset. "Your Majesty, skipping the rank to be promoted is against the palace rules. Please take back your decision."
[I’m dying, I’m dying, Fatty, are you dissatisfied that I’m not dying fast enough? If I become the Imperial Concubine, I’ll probably have to live in fear again.]
"Xiao He doesn't want to be a royal concubine?"
"Your Majesty, I don't mind the title. Once I become the Imperial Concubine, I'm afraid the former court and the harem will be in chaos for a while. I don't want to cause Your Majesty trouble because of my own selfishness. Please take back your order."
"Then I will let you be a concubine like Shilan, and you can't refuse me anymore."
"Okay, I will obey your Majesty."
"Then how about I give you a two-character title? I always feel that it is unfair to just let you be a concubine."
[Thank you, aren't two-character titles usually given posthumously to people? ]
"Your Majesty, I like my current title very much. If you feel that I am wronged, I have a request. Your Majesty, please listen to it. Can you agree to it?"
"Xiao He, tell me. I am really curious about what you can ask for."
"If Your Majesty goes on a tour incognito in the future, can you take me with you?"
Fat Orange knew in a flash that Su He wanted to go out and take a look. "Okay, I promise you, I will take you with me whenever I go out incognito in the future."
The sea was dark, and the small lamp entangled on the deck was said to be the treasure that Concubine He found according to the guidance of the gods in her dream.
There is a layer of transparent material on the outside of the small lamp, which can make the flat-shaped lamp not afraid of erosion by sea water and moisture in the air.
"Hiroshi?"
"Uncle Eight, Uncle Nine, Uncle Sixteen, why are you here too?"
"Why are you standing on the deck so late and still not asleep?"
"Uncles, I saw that the moonlight was beautiful tonight and I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a walk."
"Hongshi, we know you are worried about Concubine He, but I believe that with Concubine He's ability, she will be able to turn danger into safety."
"Uncle Ba, what do you mean?"
"Your mother can get the guidance of the gods, so the gods will definitely protect her, so I said that your mother will be fine."
"Hongshi, the situation at sea is complicated and changeable. We are not used to the food, clothing and accommodation. So if you don't get enough rest, you will easily fall ill. Wouldn't that make Concubine He worry about you?"
Hongshi hung his head, his voice a little muffled, "Uncle Eight, I know you mean well, you are worried about me, but I can't help worrying about my mother."
"Don't be afraid of being laughed at by your uncles. My mother had trouble giving birth last night. It wasn't my mother's fault. Someone wanted to harm my mother. Uncle Sixteen knows that they want to harm not only my mother, but also the imperial physician who treated my mother. They want to kill my mother and my brothers and sisters. How can I not be worried?"
"Yesterday, when I saw the basins of blood pouring out, I felt like all the blood in my body had solidified. When I left, I didn't know whether my mother was alive or dead."
Prince Heshuo Zhuang patted Hongshi on the back and patiently comforted him, "Don't worry, Hongshi. Uncle Sixteen has already given instructions on what you asked him to do last night. He will definitely find out the truth."
"Yes, Hongshi, what Eighth Brother and Sixteenth Brother said is right. It's useless for you to worry now. You should do what you should do now and live up to Concubine He's expectations of you. What's more, what Eighth Brother said makes sense. Concubine He is not an ordinary person, so your worries are unnecessary. You should learn from the three of us this time, so that you will have the opportunity to honor Concubine He in the future."
"If you are depressed all the way and fall ill before you even get to the destination, then your trip will be in vain, and all the preparations that Concubine He has made for you, me, and everyone else will be in vain."
As he spoke, Yinzhen took out a small card with common phrases in five languages from his waist bag and waved it in front of Hongshi.
Hongshi lowered his head and wiped his face with his sleeves. "Three uncles, I know I was wrong. I will go back and have a rest. I will not let my mother down."
Yinsi held Hongshi back and said, "You are such a stubborn kid. If you can't fall asleep, you don't have to force yourself to fall asleep. It's good to close your eyes and rest. Let's go back together."
"What did you say? He Fei is not dead, she is still alive and well?"
"My lady, I have inquired and found out that the Emperor is going there tonight."
"And Concubine He has now become Concubine He Guifei."
