Chapter 40 Chapter 40
Wu Junyi said in a deep voice: "Look, my son, this family is not bad."
The queen was in a hurry to go to the doctor, but she didn't expect Wu Junyi to give advice.She looked at Shen Yue's introduction, and after reading it for a long time, she didn't see anything extraordinary. "you mean?"
"For this family, the emperor once gave him a commendation for 'sincerity and kindness'." Wu Junyi had already thought about the answer.
The queen suddenly realized.Emperor Jianning said that he wanted to find a family with a clean family, and the righteous people he personally ordered were the most pure and kind!After she was overjoyed, she couldn't help but praised: "The prince is still sharp."
Wu Junyi smiled lightly and didn't say much.
In addition to the reasons for the queen, he certainly has selfish motives.How long will Shen Yu have to wait to enter the imperial court by relying solely on the imperial examination?Wu Junyi didn't know, but he knew that many poor scholars might not be able to go to high school after spending their entire lives.
What's more, Shen Yu's ignorance of poetry may displease his father...
If Shen Yue is concubine, her father and grandfather will all be rewarded, and Shen Yu will also be able to get one or two shades.At least...he could see Shen Yu.
Moreover, in the future...after he succeeds to the throne, he will definitely use Shen Yu again, and King Chu needs an in-law that he can rest assured of.
Wu Junyi had longing and anticipation in his heart, and he still had a humble smile on his face, and casually picked two or three families that looked pleasing to the eye, without factional disputes.While observing the queen's reaction, he knew it well: his father, the emperor, might not allow Princess Chu to come from a wealthy family.
"I'm really bothering the prince." After selecting about ten people, the queen finally stopped, closed the file, and thanked Wu Junyi repeatedly.
"Where the mother is, the son will naturally follow you." Wu Junyi got up and was about to leave.The queen suddenly remembered something, "That's right...the prince."
Wu Junyi was a little surprised, "What other orders does the queen mother have?"
The queen seemed a little hesitant, she looked at Wu Junyi for a while, and finally made up her mind. "Longevity banquet, you should be mentally prepared."
"What does the queen mother mean?" Wu Junyi asked.If it was a birthday gift, he had to prepare it every year, so there was no reason for such a sudden order this year.
The queen bit her lips and lowered her voice, "The one from Changchun Palace called the imperial physician frequently a few days ago, but suddenly became honest a month ago, and didn't even ask for the Ping An pulse."
This is... Wu Junyi had various guesses in his mind, and gradually frowned.
"Be mentally prepared." The queen hurriedly finished the last sentence, and then said in a normal voice: "I still have some chores to be taken care of. If the prince is free, go back and rest."
Only then did Wu Junyi come back to his senses and leave, walking into the night alone.
"Why haven't you come out yet?" Shen He's voice was rarely anxious.
It has been more than an hour since Mrs. Song was sent to the delivery room, but the midwives and maids came in and out, except for the constant screams, no news came out, and the people waiting outside were a little restless.
This is the Song family's second child and the fourth surviving grandchild of the Song family.Not only Shen He was nervous, if Shen Mu hadn't been convalescing and bedridden, he might have come to sit in the town himself.Moreover, when Mrs. Shi passed away and Mrs. Lu took up the post with her husband, the family didn't even have a mistress who was in charge.Shen He's worries were nothing but worries, and he didn't know what to do except go around.
Even the preparations for the delivery room and midwives were arranged by Mrs. Song before.
As soon as Shen Yu got home, she rushed to her parents' yard in a hurry, but there was nothing but a strong smell of blood and a serious father.
"Father, how is mother?" He hurried forward.
"Still, still waiting." Shen He stumbled a little while speaking.
Listening to those weak groans one after another, Shen Yu's heart became heavier and heavier.
When the youngest, Shen Jin, was born, he just remembered, and no one took him to wait outside the delivery room. He only saw the happy expression of the second uncle hugging the little brother, and he had no way of knowing that this woman gave birth and left behind the door of hell. together.
"Father, father has activated it. Do you want to send someone to the grandfather's house to deliver a letter?" Shen Yu asked.
Shen He slapped his head, "Look at me, I forgot in a hurry." He hurriedly asked the servant to report to Song's house.
In the past, the Song family was an official in Beijing, and the Shen family was in the countryside. Not to mention the distance, it was a few days away, so he didn't think about reporting to the Song family, but Shen Yu and the Song family traveled frequently. stand up.
Song sobbed softly, she was still gathering strength, but the pain was unbearable. "Ma'am, use force, use force!" The midwife reminded her that Mrs. Song was biting her lip, weeping uncontrollably and shaking her head. She only felt that her body was about to be torn apart, roughly like a death method like five horses dismembering a corpse.
No, Yulang is still young, she can't...!
"Ma'am is pushing harder again! The head is coming out!"
"Ma'am, keep working hard!"
"Ask someone to bring another basin of hot water!"
The midwives and maids shouted one after another, and the people outside the delivery room were stunned. Shen He had experienced it, so he was a little surprised. He held Shen Yu's hand and called out: "Ginseng soup, send ginseng quickly!" Soup in."
"Let me go." Shen Yu broke free from his father's big hand, and Shen He pressed his shoulder. "Men can't enter the delivery room, what do you do?"
Fortunately, the ginseng soup boiled for Shen Mu in the kitchen was also warming up, and the maid trotted over to bring in a bowl.
After pouring down a bowl of ginseng soup, Mrs. Song mustered up all her strength and tried again. At this moment, there was another voice outside the door, "Sister, how are you doing, sister?"
It turned out that Song Zitao's wife had arrived.
Mrs. Song Er was married to a warrior, and she acted swiftly. As soon as she came, she rushed into the delivery room, sent out the maids who couldn't help and made troubles, and told them to only bring hot water and ginseng soup. And another maid to help the midwife.
"Sister, the baby is halfway out, you need to push harder, Yulang is waiting outside - give Yulang a brother, and someone will help him in the future." Mrs. Song whispered in Song's ear.
As a woman, she knew where Song's weaknesses were, so what she said would undoubtedly give Song a shot in the arm.Mrs. Song just kept trying to get in the soup, so hard that her face was extremely ferocious, but she didn't say a word.
"Out!"
Finally, with the joyful cry of the midwife, the cry of the baby resounded throughout the delivery room.
"It's a young gentleman!" Mrs. Song was also very happy. She patted Mrs. Song on the shoulder, "You have worked hard, so I have a rest. I will see you later."
When Song heard that it was a son, she let go of her heart, and the pain came back, and she closed her eyes wearily.
The midwife held the bloody baby, wiped it clean with a red cloth, wrapped it up, and carried it out for reward.Both Shen He and Shen Yu heard the voice of the midwife, and immediately jumped up and surrounded the door. The midwife said, "Congratulations! You are a young man, mother and child are safe!"
When the words "Mother and son are safe" came out, both father and son breathed a sigh of relief.Shen He took his son, grinning from ear to ear, calling for a reward.Shen Yu also looked at the baby, and a strange feeling came to her heart - the baby's wrinkled little face was flushed, and she couldn't tell who it looked like, but this was his brother who was connected by blood, and in the future, they would also depend on each other through wind and rain .
"How is Madam now?" Shen He wanted to go to the delivery room.
"No, no, Mr. Lang can't go in." The midwife hurriedly stopped him, "Madam is resting, and there is still no wind."
Shen Yu was also relieved to hear that her mother was fine.
Mrs. Song also came out this time.In the absence of Song Zitao, Mrs. Song and Shen He also avoided.She saluted lightly, said hello, and then took her leave and returned home.
"Father, do you want to tell grandpa?" Shen Yu thought of another thing.
"Of course, I have to ask my father to give me a name." Shen He called the wet nurse whom he had found earlier, handed the child to her to hold, and then went to Shen Mu's room.with
There was a lingering smell of medicine in Shen Mu's room.He was lying under a thin quilt, and in just a few months, his whole body wasted away, leaving only skin and bones.
Even if Shen Yu resisted in her heart, she felt a little sad in her eyes.
"Father, congratulations on becoming a grandfather again." Shen He walked in quickly, smiling.
Shen Mu raised his head, seemed to be smiling, and asked vaguely, "Is it a gentleman?"
"Exactly, I gave Yulang a younger brother." Shen He replied. "I also ask my father to give me a name."
With difficulty, Shen Mu raised his thin hand like a dead tree branch, and pointed to the desk.
"Father." Shen Yu reminded in a low voice.Shen He walked towards the desk, and saw a few manuscripts on the table, with many words densely listed on it, all of which meant beautiful jade.It was Shen Mu's handwriting.The last one that was circled was Lin.
"Shen Lin. That Goro's name is Shen Lin." Shen He walked to his father's bed and said softly.
"No..." Shen Mu spoke out with difficulty, his breath was short, and the words he spoke were almost silent: "It's Saburo..."
Shen He was stunned for a moment, and understood what his father meant, "Then reorder their generation, Yulang is the boss, Qilang is Erlang, and Linlang is Saburo?"
Shen Yu's heart suddenly ached like a needle prick, and self-loathing and hatred surged up like a tide.Shen Yu could hardly look at the dying old man lying on the bed, so he could only look away from him.
The doctor's letter was refuted one by one by Zhou Kuang, the crown prince's grand teacher.The courtiers were all relieved.Although they faintly smelled the anger of faction, the upcoming Longevity Day overshadowed everything.
The Longevity Banquet is the highlight of the year, and this year is the [-]th birthday of Emperor Jianning, so the Queen has already prepared for it.The outer court and the inner court will hold banquets, civil servants and military generals, noble clans, and every aspect must be extra cautious, for fear of any omissions.
At this kind of banquet, Wu Junyi usually started with Emperor Jianning, with the emperor's brothers King Yu, King Chu, and the prime ministers, generals, and ministers.
Even though it was written by Dr. Wei, everyone knew it was written by Jia Shengde. Because of the empress's instructions, Wu Junyi was so concerned, but he still had to endure the gentle greetings with this old man, and he almost exploded.
Fortunately, there was a certain distance between each person's table, and Jia Shengde couldn't forcefully climb up to talk to Wu Junyi, so Wu Junyi turned his head to greet King Chu and King Yu.
Before the banquet began, Emperor Jianning took his seat, and then the clan and officials would present gifts together.In terms of identity, Wu Junyi is naturally the first.However, just as he was about to get up, a young eunuch suddenly ran in quickly.
Eunuch Gao was about to stare at him, but he ran to Eunuch Gao's side and said a few words sideways.Eunuch Gao was shocked, and immediately stepped forward in small steps, whispering in Emperor Jianning's ear.Wu Junyi also stopped his movements and sat down again.
All the officials saw this behavior and wondered in their hearts, only Wu Junyi suddenly remembered what the queen said, and his body shook slightly.
Emperor Jianning burst out laughing, "Zhang Jieyu and Wang Meiren are pregnant, I am very lucky, and I want to have fun with you all."
