127. Yiqing's pregnancy
"Scared? Father is not a suspicious person, don't think nonsense. Hua Wushan comforted her.
"Hmm." Yilan didn't hide it, "Someone may say in front of my father that the two of us have a twist, and my father asked me to ask." ”
"That's why you're scared like this? Father likes you so much, even if it is a trouble, he will not blame you. Although Hua Wushan said this, his teeth itched with hatred in his heart, and he couldn't tolerate any bit of harm to Yilan. Chewing the root of his tongue in front of the emperor is unbearable or unbearable.
There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Hua Wulin got a report that Xiangguo went to see the concubine Niangniang, but unfortunately the content of the words is unknown.
Hua Wushan was not worried that Yilan was sick and was at home alone, so he didn't go to the morning court the next day, but talked about Fancheng with Yilan in detail. It is a pity that the recent interruption has found that there are signs of increasing troops on behalf of the country at the Longshan Pass, so the Dragon Boat Festival Sanye Hua Wuchen will not return to the capital.
In two days it will be the Dragon Boat Festival, and the palace will be lit up everywhere to prepare for the festival.
The children in the academy stopped their afternoon classes and began to prepare for the royal gathering the day after. The good character writes two couplets, the good one paints a picture of the emperor's spring outing, and the good poetry is good, and makes a few articles to prepare for the Dragon Boat Festival to be presented to the emperor on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival.
On the fifth day of the Dragon Boat Festival in early May, the college is on holiday, but the sky is still bright, Yilan has already gotten up, carefully dressed up, and is ready to enter the palace to congratulate.
Yilan and Hua Wulin didn't go together, Hua Wulin had to go to the palace early to accompany the emperor to accept the congratulations of the hundred officials, but Yilan didn't need to meet the concubine, so she didn't have to arrive too early. "Hmph, I said I didn't have to arrive early, but I still have to get up with you, women are trouble." Yilan, who is used to lazy bed, complains sleepily at Hua Wulone.
"Madame is hard, when you see your father there, I will arrange a place for you to sleep, okay." For ylang-ylang flowers, Wu Lin has always been good-tempered, and today he is dressed as a prince, which is particularly grand.
"Hmph." Ylang ignored it.
Wearing complicated clothes, you can't ride a horse, with the beginning of spring and autumn, sitting in the carriage of the palace, all the way to the palace entourage, slowly swallowing to the palace to catch up, heavy hair accessories, delicate makeup to rely on the front seat to maintain, in the car can not take a break. "Miss, it's coming soon, you can't bluff like that." Lichun can't see it, but he reminds him.
"The slave has seen the girl." When I arrived at the gate of the palace, I saw that Zhao Qishou was already waiting there, "It's really hot today, it's not yet time, it's already unbearable, long live the Lord knows that the Yilan girl is unwilling to sit down, so he deliberately let the slave wait." ”
Yilan was stunned for a moment, driving away all the drowsiness and depression, the emperor would be so sure that Hua Wushan didn't know what to say in front of the emperor.
There are many officials and nobles coming and going at the gate of the palace, where are there people who sit down, seeing this, they all look sideways, and this surprised look makes them still very unaccustomed.
The place of the banquet is located next to the Weishan Lake on the east side of the Imperial Garden, the wind with water vapor sent from the lake makes people feel cool and comfortable, the lotus flowers on the shore of the lake are blooming, one by one is straight through the outside, not vines and branches, the fragrance is far and clear, the pavilion is planted, the pink and white are alternate, swaying with the wind.
By the time Yilan arrived, the long pilgrimage had already ended. The imperial concubines all changed into civilian clothes, and they were watching the programs prepared by the concubines and their families, and there were constant laughter and laughter in the spacious Wanghu Xuan.
As Yilan expected, Hua Wushan, who had changed into the prince's casual clothes, was standing under the eaves of the porch at this time, looking forward to it. "Why don't you go in and stand here in the sun." Yilan helped Hua Wulone's hand and stepped down.
"You can't get the old man, where do I dare to go in, or you are unhappy and turn back, don't pity me and have to brave the sun to chase back." Hanagou lonely hippie smile.
"Death Phase." Although he scolded in his mouth, he smiled brightly on his face.
"Why did the sixth master come so late?" As soon as Hua Wushan stepped in, everyone stood up except for the emperor, and Concubine Yi also came over to greet her. The ladies of the Six Princes' Mansion, who had been waiting next to her, all gathered around Hua Wulone.
"Hua Wulin has seen his father and the emperor, and he has seen all the mothers." Hua Wulin just stepped forward and bowed slightly, and Yilan stood side by side beside Hua Wushan, blessed.
Zhu Lihua and the others didn't have such treatment, they stood behind Hua Wulin and knelt down to salute.
"Sixth, Yilan, sit down." The emperor said with a smile.
"Rise up all of you." Concubine Yi's face was ugly, and she beckoned Zhu Lihua and the others to get up, and was very angry that Yilan only performed the princess ceremony, but the emperor didn't think so, and asked her to sit by name, and Concubine Yi couldn't say anything. just glanced at Zhu Lihua.
I didn't go to sit down immediately, and there were brothers who needed to be greeted.
"Sister Yiyi, today is hotter than that day, you come all the way, there is no heat stroke, you scared us to death a few days ago." Today, Hua Wuxiang behaved very 'Sven', just pulled Railan's hand, and did not have a bear hug.
"Twelfth Master Xie cares, I came in today and I am not tired." But in front of everyone, Yilan still blushed.
Seeing that Hua Wulin and Yilan were about to go to the chair, "The slave maid has something to congratulate the emperor and the concubine." Zhu Lihua stepped forward and smiled at the emperor.
"Oh, what's the matter?" As the old man next to Hua Wulone, a relative of Concubine Yi, Zhu Lihua is usually very sensible, the emperor neither likes her very much, nor does he dislike her, and when he hears her solemnly say his joy, he asks casually.
"The Six Kings' Mansion is about to add Ding again. Sister Yiqing in the house is already five months pregnant, and the sixth master didn't tell us before, but now that the belly is revealed, we only know. Zhu Lihua said lightly and happily.
"Really? The sixth master is also true, why didn't he tell the emperor about such a big happy event earlier? It is a big deal to spread the branches for the royal family, and it can also make the emperor reward her. Yi Guifei's face was the excitement and love that a grandmother should have.
Obviously coming to herself, Yilan smiled in her stomach. I'm afraid that Zhu Lihua will be disappointed.
"It's the children's own business, and the sixth will take care of it." The emperor does not accept the stubble of the concubine.
"How can it be done, the child is pregnant for the first time, while the month is still young, let her enter the palace to ask the emperor for peace, and give some rewards, so that the child can raise the fetus with peace of mind." Yi Guifei did not forgive.
"No need, she's fine in the house now." Hua Wushan interrupted Concubine Yi's words very abruptly, and there was obvious annoyance in her tone.
Hey, Yilan is very sympathetic to Zhu Lihua, the most taboo thing about Hua Wushan now is the child in Yiqing's belly, this time she really offended Hua Wulone, this thing can never be good.
Hua Wulone's abrupt opening made everyone stunned, and then Yi Guifei and Zhu Lihua looked at Yilan with mocking eyes.
Unable to stand the worried gazes of the seventh and twelfth masters, Yilan smiled and nodded, and said, "I knew that Sister Yiqing was pregnant two months ago, but Wu Lin wanted to wait for the child to be born before giving the emperor a surprise, so I never reported it to the emperor and the concubine." Now that Sister Zhu has said it, she should be allowed to enter the palace to greet the emperor and the ladies. ”
Everyone was stunned.
She already knew? You'll find out in March? Hua Wulin didn't even hide this kind of thing from her? Concubine Yi was both shocked and angry, while Zhu Lihua was only scared except for shock. You must know that after knowing that Yiqing was pregnant last month, Zhu Lihua was also furious, thinking that in addition to this child, it was Concubine Yi Guifei who stopped her, saying that she was using this child to fight Qiu Yilan. It's a pity that the abacus of the two did not succeed.
"Since Yilan said it, let her come over." The emperor also came from being a prince, and he didn't know anything about women's fighting and jealousy, and he began to say that he didn't let her come in order to take into account Yilan's feelings, and Yilan's performance of not being humble or arrogant made the emperor very surprised.
"What are you doing standing? Who just said that you still want to play the piano? The emperor spoke out to end the battle between the women's words.
Hua Wulin glanced at Zhu Lihua with a warning look, and took Yilan's hand tightly and walked to the edge of the seat.
Everyone sat down with their own thoughts, and Yilan felt that Hua Wushan was holding his hand and trembled a little, and he could feel how angry he was now. "It's okay, don't think about it, wait for the singing to listen to you, okay?" A sweet smile at him.
The piano is played by the daughter of a county lord, only less than 14 years old, not beautiful but very delicate, this piano is very beautiful, the sound of the piano is sorrowful, and it is difficult for the girl in this flower season to deduce so full of feelings.
At the end of the song, they bent their bodies and retreated into the crowd with the piano, and everyone was still immersed in the sound of the piano.
"If you play it well, you really put effort into the piano." The emperor praised.
The child's mother brought the child over to thank him, praised the child for how obedient and sensible, in addition to the piano, he also did a good embroidery job, and gave a sachet to the concubine, and received a lot of rewards.
I saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child in the company of his mother, and he came up timidly.
"Yilan, why did you just hear that you were going to sing a song to the sixth brother, so we can't listen to it together?" The Twelve Princes said with a flattering face. Now that he has become a relative, he no longer sits next to the emperor, and today he is sitting at Hua Wulone's hand, next to Yilan.
Yilan glanced at the twelve princes fiercely, this girl can perform in front of the emperor's concubine for a purpose, mostly to leave a good impression on the emperor's concubine, and to be able to point to satisfactory family affairs, I don't know how much effort I have to hold back to prepare, I was interrupted by you, how can I continue, Yilan is in my stomach.
"The twelfth master smiled, Yilan is not good at playing the piano and singing, and he can't be in the hall of elegance, how dare he show ugliness in front of the emperor and all the mothers." Ylang Road.
"So far, this king hasn't seen which one is good? No, since you leaked your mouth today, you have to sing here. "The Seventh Master Flower Enlightenment Coaxed on the side.
Yilan's eyes rolled to the sky, and when he said this, how could the people below continue.
The most embarrassing thing is that the mother and daughter who just came up, they don't know whether to go down or stay here, the girl is almost crying.
