016 Concubines

Regent's Palace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The night was thick, and the bangzi of the hour was knocked three times, and the keys had been laid everywhere, and it was quiet. Princess regent Xie Li held a book of poems in her hand, dressed in a light apricot bedclothes, and leisurely draped in a moon-white coat, leaning on the Jiaosha Palace lamp, looking quite leisurely.

Yan Xiao walked quickly into the warm pavilion, in the cold winter of December, the palace had already burned the earth dragon. She rubbed her hands and said with a smile: "Back to the princess, the prince has arrived at the second gate." The slave and maid had ordered hot water to be prepared in a short time. ”

The princess nodded, put down the book of poems, and thought thoughtfully.

Until there was a sound outside, she calmly put on her clothes, stepped on her cotton shoes, and greeted the outer hall. Today, Wang Yeyi has arrived in the capital, but he has not returned to the palace and went straight to the palace to deal with the government affairs, and he is busy at this moment.

"The concubine has seen the prince." The princess regent was blessed to the end, smiling and groaning.

"Excuse me." The regent raised the princess's right arm, his gaze softened, and a gentle smile appeared on his face that had been running around for days.

When the regent bathed and changed his clothes and entered the inner room, he took the princess's shoulders and said gently: "I have worked hard for you this time. ”

The princess regent smiled lightly: "It's all what a concubine should do." The prince went south this time, did everything go well? She thought of the pair of living treasure-like brothers and sisters, felt a little guilty, and said, "Xinzhi and Yi'er didn't cause trouble for the prince?" ”

"This trip is okay. There are always some surprises. The regent leaned on the bed, very tired between his eyebrows, "The letter is not under my nose this time, and I asked Zheng Daru for learning in Yangzhou, which was unexpected." Yi'er has always been measured and will not cause any big trouble. "As for the small mistakes, with the Xie family and his face, they can naturally get over it.

The princess ordered someone to blow out a few palace lamps, and the maids lowered the curtains and withdrew in turn.

"Xinzhi, aren't you eating, drinking, and having fun in Yangzhou?"

"Zheng Daru personally wrote a letter to me. Besides, if Xinzhi is in Yangzhou, how can he stay in Suzhou obediently, and the brother and sister are not crazy in Yangzhou together. ”

"That's not bad." The princess should have been, and when she saw that the regent was tired, she stopped talking and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, when the sky was still dark and the wind was cold, the regent was dressed, and the princess sent him out of the house and went to the court. I probably heard the news of the prince's return to the house, and the concubines came very early today, and they probably wanted to take a look at the prince.

It's a pity that I didn't even see my back.

The princess walked around, and the concubines were all ready, and most of their expressions were full of joy. After the maid served tea, she glanced at You Ji's belly and said with a smile: "Sister You is almost four months old." ”

You Ji already has an eldest daughter, she got up with her stomach in her hands, lowered her eyebrows, and said, "Thank you for the princess's concern, it's been four months." ”

The princess asked with concern whether the fetus was healthy and whether she was paying attention to her usual diet. Concubine Han Shu sat in the first place on the lower right of the princess, took a sip of tea, and smiled: "Who in the capital does not know the princess's tolerance and virtue, in fact, if you want me to say, it is really a blessing for a child to be born in the palace." ”

The rest of the concubines echoed one after another, looking at Concubine Han Shu with envy in their eyes.

To say that Concubine Han Shu is not from a high background, her father is just an old editor of the Hanlin Academy, and her family background is thin. The key is that her stomach is angry, and after giving birth to her daughter, she gave birth to a son, and she is counted as having both children in the house. And the elder brother is quite capable, and he entered the Ministry of Industry with the recommendation of the prince, and he did things neatly.

The hall was warm and full of laughter. The princess was about to disperse them, when a small group came over and talked slowly. It looks very eye-catching, and it seems to be an errand in the front yard.

"Princess Qiqi, the day after tomorrow, there will be eight boats to the Beijing-Tianjin ferry, and the prince instructed the servants to explain to the princess a deep explanation, so as to arrange for the maid and the woman to go to meet them." The little guy beat a thousand children, but his expression was dignified.

The princess's heart sank slightly, her face was silent, and she said with a smile: "I'm ready." And let the prince rest assured. ”

The little guy saluted again, and then the cat left.

None of the concubines here are stupid, Agarwood Pavilion has been busy in and out since the beginning of the month, and it is not something that needs to be hidden. It's just that no matter how deep the news is, not ordinary people can find it.

The prince brought Lin in the letter, causing the princess to be inaccurate, so the Agarwood Pavilion was elegant and generous, and the precious items were taken out of the treasury without money.

It's just that after listening to what Mama Qin said yesterday, the princess was completely relieved.

But a shameless thing, the prince still annoyed her, and caused such a big disaster, the news delivered by Xie Fu yesterday, the royal historian and the official were in a hurry, and everyone knew it. Even if his father once valued Lin Yanxuan, at this moment, this idea has disappeared.

"Are we going to have another sister?" Concubine Han Shu's color is bright, and her lips are lightly opened.

"Yes, the Lin family will probably enter the mansion the day after tomorrow and live there at the Agarwood Pavilion."

Agarwood Pavilion and Concubine Han Shu's mirror Chunzhai are only separated by a bamboo forest, which is extremely close. Concubine Han Shu chuckled and said: "I don't know what kind of fairy-like person this Sister Lin is, the golden and jade beauty of the Agarwood Pavilion makes the concubine's body red-eyed." ”

The princess glanced at her lightly and said, "Sister Han's mirror Chunzhai is full of laughter and laughter all day long, how can it be compared to Agarwood Pavilion." "The prince is tired of the Ning family, and the eldest prince is raised under the name of Wu Ji, but he goes once in half a month. But in this mirror spring fast, the prince must go almost every day, a son and a daughter, laughing non-stop.

Concubine Han Shu's original face was full of spring breeze for a long time, and the princess only didn't realize it, and said with a pleasant face: "When Sister You gives birth to a little son, the prince will already say that she will be promoted to a side concubine." It is not in vain that my sister worked hard to conceive a baby, and she opened up branches and leaves for the prince. ”

The concubines in the room were congratulated again, their eyes were warm and envious, and You Ji also smiled and humbly got up to thank her. Concubine Han Shu alone had a smile on her face, but she gritted her teeth so much that the roots of her teeth were sore.

This Xie Li.

is obviously generous and virtuous, and secretly gives her a head to eat, and beats her from time to time. But the prince believed her, and occasionally wanted to take eye medicine, but was frightened by the prince's faint eyes. Thinking of Ning's fate, Concubine Han Shu desperately warned herself that she must be patient.

Side Concubine - Hmph, side concubine.

If it weren't for her children, I'm afraid she wouldn't even be able to get a concubine. Concubine Han Shu pulled the veil, her heart was uneasy, Xie Li was better than her in addition to her family background, which point was better than her. She, Han Qianwen, is talented and good-looking, and she can give birth to a son, is the princess okay?

You is just a concubine who knows the same thing in the ground, and she is said to be the niece of Mrs. Bai of Changpingbo, and she is not a relative, but she didn't see how warm and thoughtful Changpingbo's mansion is. However, relying on her softness and pettiness, she coaxed the prince around, and even the princess was fooled by her pitiful, well-behaved and obedient appearance.
