Chapter Twenty-Nine: Nightmares
The queen is pregnant, which is naturally a great joy in the harem, and congratulatory gifts must be prepared everywhere, Qin Yunyi asked people to prepare and send them over, "I won't go." β
The queen said to the outside world that she wanted to lie down and recuperate, and since she couldn't see anyone when she went, she didn't bother to go this way.
When she went to Dengyun Pavilion to enjoy the snow, Miaoqing looked worried, "Niangniang, otherwise only open the windows on the south side, the windows on all sides are open, the wind is too strong, and you will be careful to catch a cold." β
"Didn't you put two braziers next to me, and you were afraid that I would catch a cold?" Qin Yunyi said, "What you want is this transparent scenery that can be seen on all sides, this snow scene is really beautiful." β
"The sky and the earth are white, and everything is clean. Qin Yunyi looked out the window and said that he was enjoying the scenery, but his eyes did not have a specific landing point.
Concubine Xian said that she saw that love was false, why was she sure that His Majesty's love for her was true?
Qin Yunyi fell in love with admiring the snow in Dengyun Pavilion, even the snow melted, she took it right, the clear air was more peaceful than the warm fragrance in the hall, the palace maid couldn't convince her, she could only watch her stay outside in the cold winter like a masochist.
Qin Yunyi, who was lying on the bed, dreamed again.
I dreamed that my young and beautiful mother hugged her and whispered, 'Yun'er, the most important thing in this life is to be innocent, come innocently, go innocently, don't be afraid, your father and brothers are waiting for you at the end. β
'Nurse, let go, let go.' Qin Yunyi couldn't stop kicking her legs, but the nurse hugged her legs tightly, "I can't help it, I am a big lady with my own hands, how can I be willing to send her to death, she is still so young." β
There were some people kneeling around, bowing their heads eagerly, Qin Yunyi felt that he was struggling and sweating, "Let go, nanny, it's too late if you don't let go." β
'The Divine Decree has arrivedβ'
Qin Yunyi thought in his dream, it was too late, it was too late.
She was put down from the noose, and someone said that His Majesty had given her to the Seventh Prince as a concubine, and the nurse looked at her with tears in her smile, 'Great, Miss, Madame, the nurse went for Miss, Miss must live well, live a long life.' β
"Don't. Qin Yunyi woke up in shock, she was the only one on the spacious bed, just dreaming, there was no mother, and there was no nurse. Qin Yunyi's tears fell uncontrollably, and the palace maid on night outside the curtain was awakened by her, and called Niangniang through the curtain with the lamp.
Qin Yunyi pounded his head, don't think about it, after the nurse said that, she slammed into the pillar hard, and blood splashed all over the ground.
And don't think about the scene she saw when she was put down that day, mother, aunt, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, their bodies hanging from the beams of the roof, their skirts drooping their feet, and they were broken like dolls made of cloth.
"Ahh
Qin Yunyi thumped his head harder and harder, "Why me?"
"Why am I alive?"
Miao Ping heard that something was wrong with the voice, and hurriedly hung up the curtain, "Niangniang, what's wrong with you?"
Qin Yunyi shook his head and couldn't hear the words of the outside world, his expression was painful, and he only roared sentence by sentence Why me, why me.
The movement of the dormitory soon spread to the entire Ronghua Palace, Miao Ping only let Miao An come in to guard Niangniang, she stood at the entrance of the compartment and ordered, "Niangniang has a nightmare, go and ask the imperial doctor to come, light up all around, the brighter the better, don't walk around, don't cast the figure on the window." β
Qi Zongwen slept until midnight and suddenly woke up, "Han Xing?"
"Your Majesty?" Han Xing bent in.
"Pour me a glass of water. Qi Zongwen woke up suddenly, only to feel tightness in his chest, and when he drank water, he looked suspiciously in the direction of Ronghua Palace, "Is there a sound over there in Ronghua Palace?"
"How can it be, Your Majesty? What time is it now, and the concubine has already gone to sleep. Han Xing thought to himself, he was just woken up by the little eunuch and said that the lights of Ronghua Palace were suddenly bright, and he didn't know what was going on, so he sent someone over to take a look and ask what was going on. Before this little eunuch came back, His Majesty woke up, and across the layers of palaces, he could still hear the voice of Ronghua Palace?
"I seem to hear a cry over there, you let people take a look, if the concubine is asleep, don't disturb her, come back and report to me." Qi Zongwen said.
"Yes. β
It happened that the little eunuch came back out of breath and beckoned to Han Xing at the gate of the hall, Han Xing went out, "What's the situation?"
"It was said that the concubine was having a nightmare, and the specific situation was not clear, saying that she had already gone to ask for a doctor. β
Han Xing was still thinking about how to tell His Majesty about this, but Qi Zongwen had already heard a voice get off the bed, "What did you say happened to the concubine?"
The little eunuch fluttered and knelt down, "The little one didn't go in, I didn't see the big palace maid, it was the little eunuch of Ronghua Palace who told the little one, and the mother seemed to have a nightmare." β
Qi Zongwen hurriedly went to the gate of the palace to see, Ronghua Palace was very close, close enough to see the candle flame in Ronghua Palace, "Oh, Your Majesty, be careful of catching a cold." Han Xing went to the gate of the hall when he saw him wearing his bedclothes, and hurriedly chased after him with his cloak, "If someone asks again, the imperial doctor has also been invited." β
"Don't move, all of you. Qi Zongwen said, "Han Xing, take my boots." β
Qi Zongwen went to Ronghua Palace with boots and cloak wrapped in it, and he didn't have time to wear a coat.
When he arrived at the door of the hall, hearing Qin Yunyi's cry, Qi Zongwen was even more anxious, Miaoping Miao'an was at a loss, no matter how he called Niangniang, they should not be called, and the imperial doctor was delayed.
"Your Majestyβ" Why is Your Majesty here at this time? What should I do? Niang Niang can't take over at all now.
Qi Zongwen understood what was going on when he saw Qin Yunyi's condition, he asked the maid to go down, took off his cloak and boots and went to bed, and hugged her tightly, "Yun'er, Yun'er, I'm here." β
"Why am I alive?"
"Why don't I die?"
"I'm so uncomfortable, I'm so uncomfortable, I don't want to live anymore, it's too hard to live. β
"Yun'er. Qi Zongwen hugged her tightly, called her name over and over again, and didn't say anything else.
Qin Yunyi fell asleep in Qi Zongwen's arms after crying and tired, Qi Zongwen saw that her back was sweaty, so he whispered to someone to bring hot water in, "The imperial doctor has come, do you want him to check the pulse of the mother?" Han Xing asked in a low voice.
"Not now. Qi Zongwen said, "Let him stay in Ronghua Palace, and wait for Niangniang to wake up tomorrow." β
Qi Zongwen cleaned up Qin Yunyi, then stuffed her into the quilt, and asked the palace maid to put the hot copper dates into the quilt, "I shouldn't wake up again tonight, but I may have a fever tomorrow morning, you always pay attention, if there is something wrong with your face, call the imperial doctor in." β
"Don't tell her I've been here. Qi Zongwen still confessed before leaving.
He came from Tianqing Palace in a hurry, he didn't call Bu Yuan, he ran all the way, Han Xinghou called Bu Yuan to wait outside Ronghua Palace, and he could sit on the chariot when he went back.
"Go around the Tianqing Palace twice and then go back. Qi Zongwen said.
"Your Majesty. Han Xing persuaded, "This winter night is too cold, Your Majesty is wearing thin clothes, and you have been away for a long time, what if you get a wind cold." β
"Your Majesty will go to court tomorrow. β
Qi Zongwen sighed, "That's it, let's go back." β
Qi Zongwen sat on the dragon bed, he looked at Han Xing and suddenly asked, "You say, is it a good thing or a bad thing for me to save the concubine?"
"Why did Your Majesty suddenly ask that?" Han Xing lowered his head and took off Qi Zongwen's boots, not daring to answer directly.
"Forget it. Qi Zongwen shook his head and didn't embarrass him, "I thought she had come out, but she didn't." β
"Thinking about this, I suddenly felt a little timid to go to see the concubine. β
"After all, it was my fault that the Qin family ended up so miserable. β
The queen was pregnant, Mrs. Guangping Hou and Mrs. Xia Bohou came to visit the palace together, they had been looking forward to this child for too long, "Hou Ye was very happy when he heard the news at home, and hurriedly called for wine to celebrate." β
"Tell my brothers not to be so exaggerated, it's not too late to wait for the child to be born safely. The queen said.
"Before His Majesty ascended the throne, he was more tolerant of the Jiang family, but who would have expected that after ascending the throne, he became more and more indifferent to the Jiang family, General Shen was in the city, and the Hou Ye was indignant at home, I don't know why His Majesty didn't use him?" β
"It's good now, Niangniang is pregnant, Your Majesty will be happy, Niangniang will say some soft words for the brothers at this time, this brother-in-law and second brother-in-law, isn't it better than others?"
"This palace will find an opportunity to tell His Majesty about this. The queen said, "It's just that Your Majesty has a reason for doing things, and don't speculate as a courtier." β
"It's not a hurry to say this, the Marquis Hengzhu has been idle at home for a while. Mrs. Guangping said, "It's just that there is one more important matter at the moment, and Niangniang has an idea?"
"What's the matter?" the queen wondered.
Guangping Hou shook his head disapprovingly, "Niangniang, this is an ordinary family, there is an eldest son, it is an extremely difficult thing." β
The queen was speechless.
"If you say that the mother didn't have a pregnancy letter before, and the time difference in the middle is too much, there is no need to attack Concubine Yao, after all, no matter how many princes she gave birth to before, she can't compare to the dignity of the concubine of the middle palace. Mrs. Guangping Hou said, "But Niangniang immediately had a pregnancy letter, and the concubine of the middle palace is the eldest son, which is a blessed thing." β
"Concubine Yao is not necessarily the prince. The queen said that Mama Cui had actually mentioned this matter to her, but she subconsciously ignored it, and she was not ready to attack other people's children.
"Niangniang, everything wants to be in front of you, so you won't be tied up in advance. Mrs. Guangping said, "Niangniang is not ruthless now, and then there will be endless troubles." β
"Does Niangniang want that after the crown prince is born in the future, no matter where he is, there will still be a big prince standing in front of him?"
Qin Yunyi was sick that night, but although she was sick, her spirit still came back, and without the pain of the night demon, Miaoping Miaoan didn't dare to say more, for fear that she would feel uncomfortable when she heard it.
Qi Zongwen's reward entered the Ronghua Palace like flowing water, but no one came again.
Qin Yunyi didn't think about why.
