Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Chapter 201 Chang Zai's Promotion 31

Ji Huan received the imperial edict and immediately began to take care of her pregnancy, after all, her pregnancy was not in good condition.

During her pregnancy, the harem was relatively peaceful. There was no other way because there had been too much turmoil in the recent period. Although there was still a vacant position for a concubine, the ladies in the imperial concubine positions were obviously not as turbulent as these few ladies.

During this period, Jihuan's main source of happiness was Concubine Jia.

Make fun of her.

Qianlong was a vengeful person. After the imperial concubine was decided, he finally remembered that Jiafei had come. Thus, Jiafei started to have bad luck.

Qianlong had many ways to make trouble for people, and Concubine Jia had a hard time during this period.

Jihuan was very happy watching the fun.

The palace is lonely, but it’s really nice to have something fun to watch.

Finally, before Jihuan gave birth, Concubine Jia was demoted to Concubine Jia because of her misconduct in front of the emperor. After she was demoted, Emperor Qianlong was no longer interested in tormenting her. However, after experiencing so many things, she also realized that what she had done had been discovered.

Then she fell ill, and her illness was quite serious, so she had to stay in the palace to recuperate.

At this time, she and Concubine Ling gave birth one after another. Both gave birth to princesses. They looked weak and needed careful care. They might not grow up.

Qianlong was not surprised at all when he thought about what happened during their pregnancy.

However, he didn't know that the princess born to Concubine Ling was truly weak, while the princess born to Jihuan was pretending to be weak. It was just that her pulse looked a little weak. In a few years, she would become healthy under the careful care of her mother.

After giving birth, Ji Huan thought of her enemy, Concubine Ling, and decided to teach her a lesson.

Thinking that she was similar to Concubine Jia, both had fertility physiques after becoming pregnant. The reason why she conceived slowly, as opposed to so quickly in history, was simply because the quality of Qianlong's seeds declined.

So, she decided to restore Concubine Ling's historical "good pregnancy" physique.

To be honest, in her opinion, making a woman pregnant continuously is definitely one of the most vicious punishments in the world, so why not just keep her belly busy?

So, three months after Concubine Ling came out of her confinement, she was diagnosed with the good news that she was two months pregnant.

A group of people went over to congratulate her and envied her good fortune in getting pregnant.

As for Jihuan, she devoted all her heart and soul to her daughter, and her dedication made Qianlong privately sigh many times that she was a good mother.

What impression did Jihuan leave in Qianlong’s mind?

Unlucky yet a little lucky, weak yet strong, dependent and obedient to him, beautiful, talented, good at poetry and songs, she can catch up with his words, kind-hearted, and most importantly, she has a mother's heart.

She is a woman who needs his protection.

Although Qianlong had doubted and tested her many times, it did not prevent him from coming to this conclusion.

During the two years that Jihuan had been carefully "nursing" his daughter's health, Concubine Ling gave birth to two children in succession, a son and a daughter.

However, during this period, Concubine Ling's second daughter died because she was not well raised.

In this regard, Qianlong had some complaints about Concubine Ling.

He felt that Concubine Ling was not careful in raising her children. Jihuan and Concubine Ling gave birth to daughters one after the other. Jihuan was always concerned about her daughter and raised her well, but Concubine Ling's daughter died young.

The imperial physician said at the time that Concubine Ling's daughter had a better constitution than Ji Huan's daughter, and if she was taken care of carefully, there would be no problem keeping her alive.

Based on this idea, Qianlong began to distribute Concubine Ling's children in large numbers. When Concubine Ling gave birth, she would give them to the childless concubines to raise.

Concubine Qing was promoted to Royal Concubine Qing last year, and she has been supporting Concubine Ling's fourteenth prince.

There is also Concubine Wan, who raised Concubine Ling's youngest daughter.

Her eldest daughter had been sent to the princess' home because of her age, but it was said that her health was not very good.

Frequent childbirth, coupled with the deterioration in the quality of Emperor Qianlong's seeds, resulted in Concubine Ling continuing to give birth, but none of her children were healthy.

In the 21st year of Qianlong's reign, a few months after Concubine Ling gave birth to her fourth child, she became pregnant again.

Regarding this, the concubines in the harem, who were envious at the beginning, no longer feel envious now, and even feel a little sympathetic.

Although human beings are still in ignorance, they have also summed up their own wisdom.

The value given to women in this era is reproduction, but they are human beings. They know that having many children means more blessings, but they also understand that the consequence of such frequent childbirth is wasting life.

Concubine Ling looked at her belly. Her appearance was still there, but her eyes were no longer as lively as before.

Frequent childbirths put a huge burden on her body, but she didn't dare to use contraceptive drugs openly because she didn't have a healthy son and she didn't dare to completely destroy her fertility.

But she is extremely easy to get pregnant, and she can't just give up her grace just to avoid getting pregnant.

Being caught between a rock and a hard place is exactly what Concubine Ling is facing now.

Having many children is not necessarily a good thing.

After Concubine Ling was three months pregnant, Ji Huan also revealed that she was two months pregnant.

A few months later, the two gave birth to three princesses at the same time.

That’s right, Jihuan has twins this time.

In the Qing Dynasty, multiple births were still a taboo, but the taboo was for male births. In the folks, giving birth to twin sons or multiple births would be considered unlucky, and in serious cases, they would be punished.

But my daughter is fine.

Qianlong was quite happy about this, and the full-moon ceremonies held for his two daughters were very grand.

In the following years, Jihuan focused on raising children. In fact, playing with children was more interesting than vying for favor. Of course, she was also devoted to Qianlong. Life in the harem would be difficult without favor.

In the past few years, Concubine Ling's belly was almost always empty. It was no longer one baby a year, but almost two in three years. This gave her a chance to recuperate and take a break.

Similarly, after her children were born, they were sent to other concubines to be raised. They were all sickly, but they did not die in the end.

During this period, Concubine Shu had a miscarriage, and the empress dowager also had a miscarriage. However, there was no conspiracy, as they were due to physical reasons. Qianlong's current health condition had serious problems with his offspring.

But Shu Guifei and the Queen Mother did not think so. They believed that it was done by the banner concubines. Since there was no evidence, they would suppress them indiscriminately.

Jiapin died of illness under the day-to-day care of Shu Guifei. Qianlong buried her as a concubine and the funeral was very ordinary.

It was not until the 26th year of Qianlong's reign that Jihuan became pregnant again.

After ten months of pregnancy, she gave birth to her second son, who was also Emperor Qianlong's seventeenth prince.

Over the years, Concubine Ling gave birth to many children, but she only had three sons: the fourteenth, fifteenth, and sixteenth princes.

When Seventeen was born, she was already not young anymore. She entered the palace in the twelfth year of Qianlong's reign, and now it is the twenty-seventh year of Qianlong's reign, fifteen years in the palace. Her eldest child is already in his early ten years old.

Her face remained the same, but her eyes were not as bright as before.

After giving birth to Seventeen, Ji Huan stopped getting pregnant again and continued to raise her children.

Although she has many children, it is not difficult to raise them. The system helps monitor their health and psychology. Of course, it is not the kind of surveillance. As long as there is no problem, the system will generally protect the children's privacy.

Jihuan herself is not a person with a strong desire for control, so she accepted this well.

After Jihuan became a noble concubine, the structure of the harem was settled. Even if there were conflicts, they could not happen in front of her. The fierce conflicts among the harem caused Qianlong to lose many children.

Qianlong was able to take it easy on this difficult situation.

After all, he looks healthy now, and he has many concubines and children in the Manchu army.

Of course, he is more optimistic about the fifth prince Yongqi, the daughter of Concubine Yu.
