We didn't sleep that night, I pillowed in Zhu Di's arms, Zhu Di put his hand on my stomach all the time, and the two of us were like the most ordinary couple, chatting about the joys and sorrows of ordinary people. I told him that I would make small clothes for the child from tomorrow, and I would also have to ask Zhu'er for a good daughter, and Zhu Di said that he wanted a princess......

Sure enough, early the next morning, Xu Yunhua took the lead in ordering the palace people to send gifts, and then the concubines from each palace came over to congratulate them in waves. I had to endure the nausea of a ** reception. Zhu Di is diligent in political affairs, and he is very indifferent to the harem, because in addition to Xu Yunhua's children born in the Yan Wangfu in his early years, there are almost no concubines and new princesses. In addition to the concubines brought by the Yan Palace, there are almost no new concubines in the harem. However, at the beginning of this year, there was a new Lu Jieyu.

This Lu Jieyu was promoted to the throne by the queen, the reason is well known to everyone, Jieyu Lu's family, formerly known as Magpie, is a personal girl beside Queen Xu Yunhua. What is rare is that she has a beautiful appearance and outstanding temperament, and slowly Xu Yunhua began to value her.

The Ming Dynasty was the same as all past dynasties, men were polygamous. When a man is weak, he will generally marry a woman who is the same age as himself or even older than himself, and then either because of the order of his parents, or because he meets a more attractive woman, more or less have to accept a few concubines, and the new women are often young and beautiful, and the wife of the main house, old age, gradually won the favor of the concubines, in order to keep the husband's heart, often contribute their own companion girl, or personally select the powerful love general, and even more will marry the maiden sister to the husband, In this way, a small group can be formed and the husband's favor can be won together.

This is still the case in ordinary families, and even more so in the imperial harem. Xu Yunhua is a very generous wife, but this is also due to the fact that Zhu Di is not a good woman, but in the past few years, she has become more and more jealous of me, and finally made this move. At that time, after some entanglement, when she was about to dedicate the magpie to Zhu Di as a palace person, Zhu Di refused in one bite. Helplessly, Xu Yunhua finally thought that he was getting older, and he had no ability to give birth, the royal heirs were weak, and when the emperor was there, there were more than 20 princes alone, so as to create a solid Ming Dynasty, and only magpies served decently, magpies knew how to advance and retreat, and knew the general situation, which was very suitable for entering the royal family, and the emperor needed such a woman.

Zhu Di knew that she said such a lot of reasons just to add wings to herself, and she didn't want to save her face, and the management of the harem was still in my hands at that time, if she didn't agree to this request, she would complain that her position as the queen of the harem was just a void. In the end, she had to turn a blind eye and let her do it.

The name magpie is too ordinary, and it shows a lowly identity, Xu Yunhua helped her change a charming name, called Yunyi, and she was directly sealed as soon as she took the position. It's just that on the day of canonization, Zhu Di didn't go. After the canonization, Yunyi did not set up a new palace on her own, and still lived in Xu Yunhua Palace, but moved out of the palace maid's residence and reopened a side courtyard for her. In fact, he is still doing what he used to do.

Some meaner concubines said behind their backs that she was a palace maid with the name of Jieyu, and the emperor had never been fortunate even once.

But today, she came alone, and came to say hello to me in her own name, and did not come with Xu Yunhua's maid. She didn't come until the afternoon, and there was no one in the palace, I originally thought that she was Xu Yunhua's person, and she was always a little reluctant to contact, but today she came to the door in person, and when she came in from outside the door, she was cowardly and cowardly with a thin and pitiful appearance, thinking that she was also pitiful, but she was just a chess piece, and her heart softened all of a sudden, so she stood up and greeted, "Lu Jieyu is here." ”

Lu Shi hurriedly said cautiously, "Don't get up, don't get up, those who have a body, don't make a big move." ”

As he spoke, he bowed his body and made a blessing. I gave Bao'er a look, Bao'er stepped forward to help her up, and arranged a chair, Lu's face was always timid, and when he saw the chair, he waved his hand again and again, "How can this be, I can just stand and talk." ”

I smiled, "You are too careful, you are a guest when you come here, how can there be a reason for the host to let the guest stand and speak, besides, you and I are harem sisters, don't talk so much about false etiquette." ”

After hearing my words, the Lu family had to sit down, but he was still timid, "I don't dare to call me a sister to Queen Niangniang, Yunyi is different from you." ”

I laughed, "Your name is Yunyi, then I'm mud." ”

I didn't expect that I was just a joke, Lu Shi was so frightened that he hurriedly got off the chair and knelt on the ground, "Slaves and maids should be damned, don't make random analogies, don't take it to heart!" Don't be careful! ”

I was also shocked by her reaction, and hurriedly called her to get up, "It's just a joke, I don't mean to blame you at all, hurry up and get up." You're here, we're just talking about family life, and it's hard for you to talk like this. ”

Lu Shi looked up at me, and saw that I didn't make fun of her, so she got up, but no matter how much she persuaded her, she didn't dare to sit down, just stood and talked.

I took a closer look at her, Ying Ying held Chu Gong's waist, a thin face, a pair of peach blossom eyes are very charming, and the skin is very white, but it is not that healthy white, some lack of blood, it is a handsome appearance, the posture is considered to be successful, but it is a little timid and childish. Just because she always looks like she will be frightened by a sentence at any time, I don't dare to say more to her, but ask a few words how old she is, who is in the family. Only then did I know that she was a girl who Xu Yunhua bought again after Xu Yunhua dismissed many wavering subordinates in Yanwang's Mansion at the beginning of the Jingjing, and she was only eighteen years old this year. The people in the family were all gone because they were injured by the Southern Army because of the war that year, so they hated Zhu Yunwen's court very much, and served Xu Yunhua wholeheartedly, hoping that Zhu Di could avenge her.

After talking a lot, I found that although this girl was cowardly, she was articulate and cautious, she was very a person in the inner show, the person picked out by Xu Yunhua, yes. Zhu Di is a little repulsive to all women, if he really comes into contact with the Lu family, I think he will also value her.

After chatting for a while, she said some words of congratulations, and said that there was still something in the queen's palace, and I didn't keep her, and gave her some gifts in return.

Bao'er saw that Lu Shi left, and also smiled, "I've seen her a few times before, but I didn't expect her to have today." It's a pity that the emperor doesn't want to see her. ”

I shook my head, "The emperor doesn't want to see the queen, if one day the queen can push this Lu family in front of the emperor, she still has a lot of room for the throne." ”

Bao'er pouted, "It doesn't matter if she can take the throne or not, our palace is dedicated to welcoming the birth of our prince." ”

As soon as I mentioned the fetus in my womb, I couldn't help but smile at the corner of my mouth and touched my lower abdomen, although he couldn't interact with me yet, but I still had an indescribable touch, that kind of spiritual communication, which is indescribable.

Zhu Di came to visit me at night and said with a smile, "I heard that the six palaces are here to say hello to you today?" ”

"No, I've been tired all day, and I'm tired now."

Zhu Di heard this, and hurriedly said, "Oh, blame me, blame me, you still think right, if you don't tell anyone, you won't have to suffer from this today." ”

I snorted and laughed, "My stomach always can't be hidden, and when it gets bigger day by day, it will be seen through one day." ”

Zhu Di scratched his head, "It's the same." ”

I couldn't help laughing, "The queen mother has raised so many children, and the other concubines are not without children, haven't you experienced enough, why do you look like a novice father now?" ”

Zhu Di's face turned red, and he said, "I used to be young, and I didn't care about their birth and upbringing at all, seeing you vomit every day, now that I think about it, they may have experienced it, but I haven't cared for it, and I'm quite guilty." ”

Looking at Zhu Di, I know that his affection for Xu Yunhua is far deeper than I thought, that is the love of a young man and a couple, that is the love of raising seven children together, even if it is not his own wish when they are combined, after so many years of getting along, even a piece of pig iron has to cover the heat.

"I'm pregnant now, so go to other concubines. Always haunt me, and you'll be criticized. I thought about it, but I said it anyway.

Zhu Di sank his face, "If someone talks too much and competes for favor with a concubine who is pregnant with a dragon, it is too unvirtuous, and he is not worthy of being favored in the harem." ”

"Your words are just the words of a family, you know, the law does not blame the public, what if the entire harem people say so?" I looked at Zhu Di and smiled reluctantly, "I shouldn't say this, it's just that I'm a woman, I always have to be considerate of others, according to myself, I want you to only accompany me alone for the rest of my life, and I don't want to see you have anything to do with any woman." But which of those women who married into the emperor's family was not raised by their father's mother? A good woman, entering the palace, some people regard it as a great honor, and some people may be like you, not voluntary, but you have the right to choose them, as soon as they step into this deep palace, they will no longer have the opportunity to choose, this life is just to serve you alone. There are 3,000 beauties in the harem in history, how many women have never waited for their husbands to be lucky once, your harem is quite tidy, but there are less than ten concubines, if you can't get wet with rain and dew again, you really have to be said to be a favored concubine. ”<
