Chapter 312: It's Hurry
Concubine He De knew that she was pregnant, but she kept holding back.
Previously, Emperor Zhiyou snubbed her because of her brother's affairs, and happened to give her the opportunity to quietly protect the fetus.
She has already given birth to two royal children, and now this one is just the icing on the cake, but the timing of its arrival is so good that even Concubine He De herself can't help but sigh: she really met the good luck road, which just made her pregnant at this time.
The royal temple is dirty, the imperial tomb is ruined, and all kinds of ominous things, she is pregnant, is it suitable for joy?
She knew the importance of the fetus in her womb, so she tried her best to hide it, and now that more than three months have passed, and the fetal gas is stable, she dares to let Imperial Doctor Chen go to the palace to tell her.
Emperor Youyou's joyful reaction was also expected by her. - She knew that the emperor would no longer snub her.
But this is not enough, she still has to hold the emperor tightly in her hands, otherwise people like Wei Xian and Queen Qian are watching from the sidelines, and it is difficult to say what the emperor's intentions will be in the future.
Concubine He De knew that the harem concubines wanted to hold the emperor's heart, in addition to the family background behind them, the most important thing was lust and desire.
Now that she is pregnant, she can't do these two points of lust and desire, and if she wants to keep the emperor's heart, she can only think of another way - when the eldest sister-in-law came to visit her in the palace before, she gave her an idea.
This idea is often done by pregnant concubines in the palace, but the eldest sister-in-law pointed out someone to her, that is, Zheng Heng, the eldest daughter of Uncle Yongning and her sister's stepdaughter.
For Zheng Heng, Concubine Duhe is certainly no stranger.
In fact, because of Zheng Heng's beautiful face, she also did a stupid thing at the Yuyuan luncheon for this reason.
That is, I was afraid that the emperor would think of this person, and my heart was full of a sense of crisis, but my sister-in-law said that I would send this person to the palace to hold the emperor?
Concubine He De hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't make up her mind, and only said to her eldest sister-in-law that she would consider it carefully.
Indeed, now she is missing such a beautiful and not too stupid chess piece by her side.
This person is my sister's stepdaughter, and it is easy to hold this person, and more importantly, she has a look that no one in the palace can match.
- This is an invincible weapon.
In the end, Concubine He De still accepted the advice of her brother and sister-in-law. Of course, she finally made up her mind, not only because of her brother and sister-in-law, but also because she heard about the Pei family's various preferential treatment and love for Zheng Heng.
The circle of Jingzhao's powerful ladies is so big, and the old lady of the Pei family, the Lu family, attaches great importance to a widowed eldest daughter, and what kind of thoughts she has, Concubine He De will not know.
The Pei family has been against her everywhere and has repeatedly spoiled her good deeds, how can she let her go smoothly?
Thinking of this, Concubine He De felt more and more that it was a matter of profit to take Zheng Heng to the palace.
As the eldest sister-in-law said, a widow and eldest daughter are just a widow, and the palace can't handle it?
At this moment, listening to Emperor Zhiyou's words of concern, Concubine He De's eyes flowed, and the thoughts in her heart went around a few times, but in the end she still didn't speak.
Now that she has just become pregnant, it is not the time to say this plan, such a means is too obvious, and it will inevitably fall behind, which may cause the emperor to dislike.
She'll have to wait, be patient, and wait a while.
At this moment, in Kunning Palace, Queen Qian was leaning on a soft pillow and said coldly: "I am three months pregnant...... Concubine Hede's skills are really extraordinary, and the palace still thinks that her days have really stopped......"
Queen Qian didn't expect that Concubine He De would be pregnant, which really surprised her.
There are not many heirs in the palace, but there are also a lot, Queen Qian herself has no heirs, and she does not have the idea of letting Emperor Zhiyou cut off her children and grandchildren, Concubine He De is pregnant, which is not a very important thing.
However, what Queen Qian cares about is not the imperial heir herself, but the person of Concubine Hede.
However, Concubine He De concealed this for three months, which impressed Queen Qian.
Sure enough, Concubine He De has been in charge of the harem for more than three years, and her ability and power should not be underestimated.
Behind Concubine He De is tied to the general He Yingtang of the Gyeonggi Guard, now the emperor has been far away from He Yingtang, and now that Concubine He De is pregnant, will He Yingtang's position in the emperor's mind change?
This is something she has to care about.
"Niangniang, not only that, but the people we planted in Yongqing Palace also heard a news, saying that it was ......" The eldest aunt of Kunning Palace, Jin Ingot, said a few words in Queen Qian's ear.
"What?, take the girl of the Zheng family into the palace?" Empress Qian sat up straight suddenly, and her expression was even more shocked than when she heard that Concubine He De was pregnant.
If the concubine is pregnant, she will generally use someone close to her to serve as a servant to keep the emperor's people, this practice, Queen Qian is very clear. But she couldn't have imagined that the person chosen by Concubine He De turned out to be the girl from the Zheng family!
Thinking of the girl from the Zheng family she had met, that different person, and thinking that she would be sent to the palace, the queen felt that there was a ridiculous feeling, and she couldn't accept it at all.
Didn't Concubine He De dislike the Zheng family girl the most? She had also designed to let the Zheng family girl have an accident, why did she want to take the Zheng family girl into the palace at this time?
At this moment, Queen Qian didn't understand what Concubine He De was thinking.
After thinking about it, Queen Qian instructed: "Spread the news to the Pei family, and let the Pei family prepare early." ”
When Pei Ding came to cooperate with her, he made it very clear that he had different ideas about the Zheng family.
No matter what Concubine He De's plans are, this matter must be known to the Pei family as soon as possible.
After giving this order, Queen Qian continued: "Jin Ingot, you tell Concubine Shun the news that Concubine De is pregnant, and find a few more people to go to Yongqing Palace to do a few things." ”
Empress Qian thought quickly in her mind, and quickly gave a few orders, now, she can't let Concubine He De be idle, she has to make Concubine He De have no time to say this plan in front of the emperor.
Since she and the Pei family are allies, of course she has to help the Pei family, not to mention, if she has a lover, of course, she must be fulfilled, how can she be accepted into the palace?
Soon, Pei Ding and the others knew Concubine Hede's plans.
Pei Guang stroked his beard, and his excessively beautiful face was full of obvious anger: "Concubine He De actually wants to take the little girl into the palace...... It's a good idea! We must not let her say this in front of the emperor, it seems that we have to hurry. ”
Otherwise, once Concubine He De opened her mouth in front of the emperor, things would be in trouble.
As a courtier, there must be no such thing as competing with the Son of Heaven for beauty, once this matter is revealed in front of the emperor, it is not only bad for the Pei family, but also bad for the little girl!
Pei Ding's face was calm, and he couldn't see any joy or anger, but said, "Father, I already have an idea." Tomorrow, I have to trouble my aunt to go to Zheng's house. ”
After Ah Heng and Lu Li, he thought about going to the Zheng family to propose marriage, and he made preparations early, and there was no rush to say anything.
Originally, he still thought that Ah Heng and Lu Li had just passed, and he would immediately go to the pre-marital meeting, but now that Concubine He De has such a plan, he can't do it if he is not happy.
They were discussing various methods against Concubine He De, but they didn't know, because Cuihua Pavilion had already planted people in the palace, and Zheng Heng learned about Concubine He De's plan earlier than them.
