When he woke up the next day, he climbed out of bed with his body that was about to fall apart, and he had to go to the Kaiyun Hall to say hello to the queen!

It was a lot late, and it was too late to have breakfast, so Ming grabbed two pieces of canary crisp, put them in his mouth, and quickly asked the eunuch to carry his shoulders to the queen.

When I arrived, it was not too late. But the canary cake was so dry that it choked her, so as soon as the palace maid brought the tea, she quickly poured most of it, and finally pressed it down.

The queen raised her eyebrows and looked over, and asked faintly, "Does Concubine Shu look thirsty?"

Ming smiled awkwardly and said "yes".

Concubine Xian covered her lips and chuckled: "It seems that Concubine Shu got up late today, I'm afraid she didn't even enjoy breakfast, right?"

Such sour words, in the harem, where women gather, are just ordinary things, Hao Ming smiled faintly, and said elegantly: "Thank you Sister Xian for your concern, the tea rewarded by the queen is also just right for your appetite." ”

Concubine Xian touched a soft nail and had to pout.

The queen smiled solemnly, and said with great virtuous concern: "Concubine Shu served the emperor last night, and it was really hard. ”

"The queen is serious. He hung his head and made a gesture of humility.

The queen looked at her with a smile, her face was full of virtue and gentleness, "Concubine Shu has been deeply loved by the emperor since she entered the palace, and she gave birth to four princesses last year, and she will have to serve the emperor wholeheartedly in the future, and give birth to an heir for the emperor as soon as possible." ”

Hao Ming hurriedly said: "The concubines are blessed, and the matter of extending the emperor's heir may depend on the new sisters who have entered the palace." He said. His eyes swept over the concubines with flowers and moons, and the three of them were beautiful nobles and pitiful nobles. In fact, the poor noble Cui Shi has reached the double ten, and he is one year older than Bo Ming. It's just that the position of the voice is there, and you can't call a noble person sister, right?

The queen's smile became more and more gentle and decent, she looked at the delicate face of the concubine, and said: "Qiongluan Hall is also a cool and pleasant place, in the past, it was the residence of the emperor's favorite Huixian concubine Gao. The concubine is now living in, maybe she can be named a concubine in a few years. ”

There was no joy on the concubine's face. Although the Gao family is called Han Junqi, everyone knows that she is a clothed slave, and the concubine is proud of her own bloodline. Now that it is compared with a clothed concubine, the concubine is naturally unhappy.

The concubine got up and said nonchalantly: "How can the concubine and the concubine be compared?" -- this sound at first glance is that she is not as good as the concubine Huixian. But in fact, it is said that the Gao family is a concubine from Baoyi. How can she be compared to her, the daughter of a princess and the granddaughter of the Holy Ancestor Emperor?!

Concubine Xian snorted lightly, and said arrogantly: "The concubine is humble, although you are only a small fourth-grade concubine now, if you give birth to an imperial heir in the future, the concubine and the concubine Jin will not know!"

The queen smiled and nodded: "Concubine Xian is right." It's just that the concubine has been favored for a while, so why hasn't there been good news?"

The concubine rubbed the silk in her hand, frowned slightly, and said, "It's about the concubine's blessing." The concubine bit her lip and couldn't help but think in her heart. It seems that I really have to ask the imperial doctor to prescribe a medicine to nourish yin.

The queen's gaze fell on the poor lady Cui Shi on the last seat, and a deep disgust appeared in her eyes. But her face was very soft, and she said with concern: "After the poor nobleman gave birth, his body was still weak, so he should recuperate for a while." ”

The poor noble Cui Shi hurriedly got up, saw a thousand blessings and said: "Thank you for the care of the queen, the concubine's body is much better." The doctor also said that if it is warm today, it is better to go out and move around more. ”

Hao Ming glanced at the face of the poor nobleman, although it was still much paler, but the green qi had faded, and he looked a little energetic. Secretly calculated, it has been almost a month since the poor nobleman gave birth, and during this time, the emperor sent the best imperial doctor and gave her the best medicine, and the lord concubine also took care of it wholeheartedly, so it was very fast.

A group of women, each laughing and chattering some gossip in the Kaiyun Hall of the Broken Moon, left separately.

Walking out of the queen's palace gate, the poor noble Cui hurriedly caught up with the footsteps of Mingming, "Concubine Shu-"

Hao Ming stopped beside his shoulder, looking at the somewhat impatient appearance of the poor nobleman, and said in his heart, could something have happened?

The concubine was so warmly invited, and Hao Ming really didn't have any excuse to excuse herself, so she glanced at the noble person. Although the noble man was a little unhappy on his face, he really didn't dare to compete with the concubine, so he bowed slightly and retreated.

In the Qiongluan Palace, just like the gorgeous and rich in the early years, the concubines called a thick Pu'er Feng murmur underneath.

Ming has always loved light green tea, even if it is a good Pu'er tea, she always drinks it wrong. The Pu'er tea soup in the enamel pot is red and bright, and there is a rare layer of oil film on the soup noodles, which shows that it is a high-quality Pu'er tea with a long age. I don't like Pu'er tea too strong...... It even had a bit of a strange taste, so I just took a sip and put it down.

The rich taste is permeated in the mouth, and after swallowing, there is a faint sweetness in the mouth, but there is a trace of ...... in that sweetness astringency, and a hint of ...... Aromatic aroma - not tea, but seems to be the aroma of some kind of flowers and plants, both of which are very light, and Pu'er tea is too strong, if it is not for the six senses of Mingming, I am afraid that I will not be able to taste it.

Hao Ming secretly felt weird, this Pu'er tea can be naturally fermented, and there is no need to add any spices, how can there be a faint aromatic fragrance? ?

The concubine looked very fond of this tea, blew the hot air, drank several sips, and then said with a smile: "When the concubine was in Horqin, she was used to drinking Pu'er tea, but she was not used to the fragrance of green tea. ”

Hao Ming secretly thought, Horqin is far away, and green tea is not suitable for preservation and transportation, in contrast, Pu'er tea pressed into bricks or cakes is the first choice. For hundreds of years, people in the Mongolian steppe have become accustomed to the smell of Pu'er tea.

But Ming was full of thoughts about the faint aromatic smell, and couldn't help but want to get to the bottom of it, so he took it up and took another sip.

Concubine Yu saw it in her eyes and said with a smile: "Does Sister Concubine Shu also like Pu'er?"

Hao Ming smiled and said: "I don't usually drink much, but my sister's Pu'er here tastes extraordinarily outstanding, and it's quite good to drink." ”

Concubine Yu said with a bright smile: "This has been cellared for twenty years Pu'er, and the natural taste is particularly mellow. If Sister Shu likes it, I'll give it to my sister. ”

Hao Ming had the heart to find out what the fragrance was, so he didn't refuse the concubine's courtesy, smiled and thanked him, and accepted it.

Concubine Yu glanced at the palace, and asked in a low voice: "Sister Concubine Shu, the Huixian Guifei Gao who lived in this Qiongluan Hall before, is the emperor's cousin really still thinking about her?"

Hao Ming smiled faintly, "Who knows, but even if the emperor doesn't forget it, she is already dead." Why bother with the concubine's sister. ”

The concubine pursed the corners of her lips slightly, "With such a background, I didn't expect to live in such a gorgeous and majestic palace...... Hmph!"

Hao Ming hurriedly said: "There are some words, but it's nothing for Sister Concubine to muttered a few words in private. Only when she is in front of the emperor, the concubine sister must not speak ill of Huixian and Guifei, otherwise the emperor will be unhappy. ”

The concubine smiled sweetly and said, "Thank you sister for reminding me." My sister remembered. ”

In fact, the words of the humming are also nonsense. Today in the Kaiyun Hall of the Broken Moon, although the concubine looked down on the Gao family in every way, she was extremely cautious if she didn't speak anyway? It can be seen that she was also afraid that some words would reach the emperor's ears, and the emperor would be unhappy.

Hao Ming immediately sighed for a long time, and his face showed a look of regret, "Concubine Huixian not only crowned the six palaces, but also learned very well, so the emperor favored her." After a pause, he said again: "The reason why this palace can be favored is also because, like Concubine Huixian, she has read four books and can write well." ”

After the concubine entered the palace for a few months, she naturally heard about Mingming's "talent", so she naturally did not doubt Mingming's words, and asked in a low voice: "Does the emperor's cousin like talented women?"

Yu Ming smiled and nodded, "This is no longer a secret thing, there are many favored concubines in the palace, not to mention the far, the eldest sister of the noble lady, Rui Guiren, in terms of gorgeous appearance, is even more above the palace, so when she first entered the palace, she was also extremely favored." But how long can you be favored just by your appearance? Rui Guiren made a mistake, and was sent to the cold palace by the emperor, and died of depression. ”

Hearing these words, Concubine Yu really listened to it in her heart, and couldn't help but be curious: "What mistake did the noble man of Narui make?"

Hao Ming smiled faintly and said, "It is said that when Concubine Qing was about to give birth, she moved her hands and feet that should not have been moved. I don't know if it's true or not, but when I look at it, I'm afraid it's the water inside!"

The concubine nodded secretly, thinking, is the Qing concubine who is silent on weekdays also a ruthless character?

Bo Ming didn't say any more, and found an excuse to leave.

Back to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, the Pu'er tea given by the concubine, I tasted several cups in a row, and I had faintly tasted a few signs, but the thing with a faint directional smell seemed to be added very little, and the taste of Pu'er in the past twenty years was too thick, and it was really difficult to taste. However, thinking of the concubine Duomeng's summoning of the emperor, but there has been no good news, Yu Ming faintly has some guesses.

At noon, the emperor came to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion in Mingming, and when he saw her tasting Pu'er, he smiled and asked, "Don't you like to drink Pu'er tea?"

Yu Ming hurriedly got up and said with a smile: "This is a gift from the concubine, and the concubine tastes good." ”

But the emperor's face instantly fell, and he hurriedly asked, "Is this the Pu'er sent to you by the concubine?!"

Seeing the emperor like this, he nodded in confusion.

The emperor went up with an arrow step, poured the remaining half of Pu'er tea into the gentleman's orchid pot on the side, and said with a calm face: "Don't drink these things in the future!!"

"Why?" Ming's face was puzzled, but he couldn't help but feel more sure in his heart—the ...... added to the Pu'er tea It should be safflower, right?

This is a powerful medicine for abortion, even if you are not pregnant, you will not be able to give birth after taking it for a long time.

"Don't care why! Don't touch a mouthful of it in the future!!" the emperor's expression was unusually serious.

Honne's answer was "yes". Afterwards, Hao Ming inquired that since he had been favored by the concubines, the aged Pu'er he had drunk had been rewarded by the emperor. Bo Ming suddenly felt cold in his heart, it turned out that it was the emperor who didn't want to get the concubine pregnant! ! )
