Chapter 361: Discomfort
Tao Tao faced his father's dark face and grinned, "Father! Hug me!"
She also reached out to the emperor for a hug.
emperor:"……"
The emperor finally hugged Tao Tao and pinched his nose, "You are as cunning as your mother!"
He really thought that this kid was howling at the top of his lungs for a long time!
The emperor knew what Taotao liked, so he quickly asked people to bring a lot of novel things to divert his attention and shut this kid up.
The imperial study became quiet instantly after one person's crying disappeared.
It does make it easier for those old ladies to use their tricks.
There are indeed many talented people in the palace.
But in a moment, an old nanny coaxed the Sixth Prince, and carried the tearful Sixth Prince forward to pay his respects to the Emperor, with a very steady demeanor.
The emperor glanced at her and asked Shi'an, "Which palace does this servant belong to?"
Eunuch Shi'an said, "Your Majesty, she originally served the late Concubine Liu. After Concubine Liu passed away, she served in Yongming Palace."
"Last time, when the third princess was making a big fuss at night, she was the one who comforted her. She's quite skilled in taking care of children."
The emperor was just wondering why this nanny seemed to be very good at taking care of children, so no one wanted to hire her.
Now when I heard her mention the late Concubine Liu, I instantly realized what was going on.
The late Concubine Liu was also a figure.
Not too favored, but very fertile.
During the ten years she served the retired emperor, she became pregnant with six children and gave birth to four safely, but in the end she was unable to raise any of them.
They all died when they were five or six years old.
In the end, she died and passed away along with her youngest daughter. The retired emperor, out of consideration for their relationship, buried her with honor as a concubine.
The women in the harem envied Concubine Liu for her ability to conceive and give birth, but they were also wary of her for having killed four children in a row.
After the death of Concubine Liu, not many people in her palace dared to be employed, and they were all sent to the margins to do odd jobs.
When the emperor heard that this old nanny came from Concubine Liu's palace, he felt a little uncomfortable.
However, he also grew up in the palace. After becoming emperor, he read many secret scrolls and knew that the reason why Concubine Liu lost three sons and one daughter in succession was due to someone's conspiracy, and it was not because she failed to take good care of the children.
From another perspective, the late Concubine Liu was very good at taking care of children.
As long as she gives birth to a child, she will raise him well.
The first three princes who died were all sent to live as the prince's concubines, and there is no need to mention the little princess at the end.
It is not easy for a weak child born from difficult birth to be raised to the age of four or five, but if he drowns, he will be gone.
It was this child who exhausted all the efforts of the late Concubine Liu. After crying for a while, he passed away.
The emperor had already made up his mind, "Since you have the ability to please the Sixth Prince, you should stay by his side and serve him for a while."
"If you serve well, you will stay with the Sixth Prince. If you don't, you will accompany the late Concubine Liu."
The old nanny was shocked at first, then overjoyed and hurriedly thanked the emperor.
These days, it's very hard to stay in a place in the palace where there is no money.
Now that she is getting older, she is afraid that one day she will fall ill and be unable to get up, and then she will be wrapped in a mat and thrown into a mass grave to die.
If you can serve the Sixth Prince, your life will be much easier in the future.
If she can wait for two more years to raise the Sixth Prince, she won't have to worry about supporting herself in her old age.
Being the wet nurse of the crown prince is a great honor.
With this old nanny, Xian Zhaoyuan finally brought the sixth prince back to her own palace.
But when she went to the imperial study to pick someone up, she was scolded by the emperor again.
"The Sixth Prince is still young, why are you so anxious?"
"If you weren't in such a hurry to take the child away, how could you have frightened him and caused him to refuse to leave Showa Palace?"
"He's a child, he'll get close to whoever treats him well. You should just coax him well and go to Showa Palace every day to keep him company. Why would you make such a fool of yourself in the six palaces?"
"You used to be a calm person, why are you so impetuous now?!"
In the final analysis, the emperor was actually dissatisfied with Xian Zhaoyuan's eagerness for quick success and instant benefits, which scared his beloved son.
Xian Zhaoyuan's face was full of bitterness after being scolded, and she broke out in a cold sweat on her back when she left the imperial study.
However, the matter of raising the Sixth Prince was finally accomplished.
After Xian Zhaoyuan got what she wanted, her life was not much better.
Although he had the help of the old nanny, the Sixth Prince would still cry and ask Xie Run from time to time.
But when he cried, he still called out "Mother", which always made Xian Zhaoyuan feel as if a knife was stabbed into her heart.
Xian Zhaoyuan felt uncomfortable. After the Sixth Prince stopped crying, the first thing she did was to send back the people that Xie Run had previously arranged to serve the Sixth Prince.
Of course, the reasons for sending it back are all good.
Either she was worried that there were not enough people in Xie Run Palace, or she was worried that the Fifth Prince would not be able to be properly served without people around him.
He sent one away every two or three days, and finally even sent the wet nurse back, which made Xie Run so angry that he laughed.
"Her eating manners are too ugly?" Lady Lu couldn't help but complain to Xie Run.
"The Emperor always disliked her for being too eager for quick success, and now that she has the Sixth Prince, she's really not pretending at all."
"Did you really think that not many people knew about the fact that you sent someone back? Now the whole harem is laughing at her, and she is the only one who is still gloating over it."
"I'm afraid if the Emperor hears about this, he'll give her a good scolding and deprive her of the chance to raise the Sixth Prince!" Concubine Lu complained to Xie Run, "I used to think she was truly raising the Sixth Prince, but now it seems she's just scheming and doesn't care about him at all."
"If you truly loved the Sixth Prince, how could you bear to send away everyone familiar to him?"
Xian Zhaoyuan's move wiped out all the sincerity she had shown when she was humiliated in front of the emperor's study.
Concubine Lu was not the only one who thought this way in the harem. Almost everyone thought that Xian Zhaoyuan raised the Sixth Prince just for her own greed.
In winter, fragrant tea is boiling on the stove, bubbling with steam, adding a touch of tea fragrance to the house.
Xie Run moved the small orange beside him and said slowly, "Perhaps she really wanted to support the Sixth Prince in the past, but things just piled up and it became like this now."
Xie Run also knew that Xian Zhaoyuan sent back all the people she had arranged to be around the Sixth Prince one by one, not necessarily because she was complacent, but because she was narrow-minded and afraid.
She was narrow-minded and could not bear to see Xie Run's people still staying with the Sixth Prince. She was also afraid that Xie Run's people would instigate the Sixth Prince to continue to be close to Xie Run and not to her.
No one wants the child they raised to call someone else mother.
Especially since they are not your biological children, you will care more about these little things.
Xie Run could understand Xian Zhaoyuan's psychology.
Xian Zhaoyuan initially wanted to raise the Sixth Prince as her own son.
But first the Sixth Prince refused to recognize her and called Xie Run his mother.
Later, she was reprimanded several times by the emperor because of the Sixth Prince and became a laughing stock in the six palaces.
After much difficulty in raising the child, the child still cries every day for Xie Run.
It would be strange if Xian Zhaoyuan could calm down.
I'm afraid that the Sixth Prince is also a little bit confused now.
However, although he understood, Xie Run was unwilling to accept this injustice. He immediately took people to the imperial study to ask for an audience with the emperor.
Xie Run openly complained to the emperor.
"The Sixth Prince is shy about strangers, and she even sent away all the people who served him. Is she trying to force the Sixth Prince to get close to her?"
"But with this kind of behavior, how can you show any concern for the Sixth Prince?"
