Chapter Seventy-Four: A Miscarriage of a Concubine
Seeing that she was so emotional, Su Yichen had nothing to do, so he had to obey her first: "Then help my sister get up and go out for a walk, put on more clothes, it's winter, it's windy." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
If the concubine gave up, Qiu Jing and Su Yue helped her finish dressing, added another cloak, and helped her out of the hall. She was nearly three months pregnant at this time, and in terms of posture, except for a slightly thicker waist, there was no big change from usual.
Two days ago, the weather was not cold, although there was wind, but the sun hung warmly in the sky, the courtyard was full of sunshine, but there was a bit of spring-like warmth. When the concubine walked out of the hall, she only felt that she could even breathe incomparably smooth, and her face showed a smile that she had not seen for many days, and she was excited to go to enjoy the flowers. The winter of the imperial city will not wither everything, and there will be seasonal flowers and trees in each season for the masters in the palace to enjoy. There is a small flower garden in the courtyard of Dexi Palace, and the flowers and trees rewarded by the emperor are planted there, and now they are handed over to Xiang Mo to take care of.
A few people moved to the flower garden, and as far as the eye could see, except for a few evergreen trees, everything else was bare, and there was no bright color at all. If the concubine was displeased, she asked Qiu Jing to summon Xiang Mo to ask: "How do you take care of this flower garden?" used to be prosperous, but now it is full of decay, but lazy? ”
Xiang Mo shouted and said: "Niangniang wronged the slave maid, how dare the slave and maid be lazy, it stands to reason that the flowers and trees in early winter should have been sent over a few days ago, but the slave maid went to ask, Cui Gonggong said that Niangniang is now in bed to protect the fetus, there is no need to enjoy the flowers, and it is a waste to send it over, and she refuses to give it to Dexi Palace." ”
Emperor Xuan didn't come to Dexi Palace for a few days, and the steward in the palace dared to oppress openly, simply taking advantage of the Shen family's suffering, not putting her, a mother with a dragon fetus, in her eyes, how could Ru Concubine suppress this breath, pointing at Xiang Mo and asking angrily: "Is that what Gonggong Cui really said?" ”
Xiang Mo knelt down and defended: "The slave and maid are honest, don't dare to deceive the mother, if the mother doesn't believe it, she can go directly to ask Grandpa Cui." ”
If the identity of the concubine is, how can she go to Gonggong Cui to question it in person, but if he bullies Dexi Palace, it will inevitably make people ignore the Shen family and Dexi Palace. Ru Concubine said to Su Yichen at the moment: "Chen'er, I bother you to go for a trip, this palace wants to see what other ugly things these dog slaves can say!" ”
Su Yichen didn't expect that the people in the harem could be snobbish so much, as soon as the Shen family fell, someone dared to jump out and target Ru Concubine, if he let it go, I don't know if something more excessive would happen. She had a plan in her heart, and she also planned to go through this experience in person, so that people could see that although the Shen family had fallen, the Shen family's mother in the harem had not fallen yet!
The flower garden is ruined, and there is really no scenery to enjoy in the courtyard of Dexi Palace. Xiang Mo saw that Ru Concubine was standing there and looking left and right, very bored, and encouraged: "If Niang Niang wants to enjoy the flowers, it is better to go to the imperial garden for a walk, Yunxi has newly offered a few newly cultivated best purple orchids into the palace, the emperor specially ordered the craftsman to build an orchid room, I heard that the flowers have bloomed, but beautiful." ”
As soon as Concubine Ru heard this, she became interested, and hurriedly asked Qiu Jing and Su Yue to accompany her to the Imperial Garden. The two of them got Su Yichen's orders, and they couldn't let Ru Concubine out of Dexi Palace during this time, for fear that what happened in the Shen family would be told to her that Xiang Mo offered such an idea, which really made the two of them angry, and it was not good to behave obviously in front of Ru Concubine. Qiu Jing could only pretend to reprimand: "Bastard thing, don't you know that Niangniang is pregnant now and can't work?" It's not a short distance back and forth from the Imperial Garden, what if you are tired of your mother? ”
Xiang Mo hurriedly said: "How can you be tired, let the mother sit on the jade chariot to go over, and after reading it, take the jade chariot back." ”
Ru Concubine agreed: "This idea is very good, Jing'er, pass on the jade, the palace is going to the orchid room to enjoy the flowers." ”
Su Yue said: "Niangniang, why don't you wait for the second lady to come back and then go, it's good to have one more person to accompany you." ”
Xiang Mo said: "You don't have to wait to delay the mother to enjoy the flowers, the slave maid is here, and as soon as the second lady comes back, let her go to the orchid room to find the mother." ”
Su Yue's brows have been slightly twisted, this Xiang Mo doesn't know what kind of heart he has, first he opened the second miss, and now he is agitating like a concubine out of the Dexi Palace. But like the concubine's temper, once she made up her mind, who could stop her, and before Qiu Jing and Su Yue spoke, she had already ordered to go down and let Xiaofuzi prepare the jade chariot.
Su Yue quietly gave Qiu Jing a look and asked her to inform Cai Ping to find the second miss immediately. The jade chariot was quickly ready to stop outside the palace gate, and Xiaofuzi came in to ask for a concubine. Qiu Jing and Su Yue went with each other, one left and one right.
Since the imperial doctor announced that she was pregnant, Ru Concubine had never stepped out of the gate of Dexi Palace, and when she thought of the snobbery of the people in the harem after her brother's accident, she felt more and more that she could not let them despise her. Want to see her fall out of favor like a concubine? Dreaming, she still has a dragon seed in her belly, Chen'er is right, as long as she gives birth to a dragon son for the emperor, are you afraid that the emperor will not be light on her brother? The Shen family can still restore the same scenery as before, no, it is even more beautiful. So she sat on the jade chariot, stroked her belly that was not yet bulging, and smiled more and more calmly and delicately.
There were many palace maids and eunuchs along the way, and when they saw her jade chariot coming slowly, they all faced the wall and gave way. Her heart was full of pride, but she didn't notice that after the jade chariot passed, everyone turned their heads and looked at her with sympathy in their eyes. The Shen family was full of questions today, she smiled so proudly, she must not know it yet, but no one would take the initiative to come forward to tell her the truth.
The orchid house is in the south of the imperial garden, because the orchid grass is delicate and not tolerant of severe cold, so a warm house was specially built. For example, the concubine Xiaofuzi and others parked the jade chariot outside the door and waited, and she took Su Yue and Qiu Jing into the orchid room. As soon as I stepped in, I already smelled a wisp of rich fragrance, like a concubine, and sped up my pace. I saw that the left and right sides are a slip of the three-order white jade carved column flower case, on the top of the high and low scattered placed different varieties, different forms of rare orchid grass, although it has entered the winter, but under the careful cultivation of the florist, it is still in full swing. Although these varieties are rare outside the palace, they are not rare in the palace, such as the concubine only took a few cursory glances, and then lost interest, and the best orchid grass offered by western Yunnan is obviously not here.
At the end of the flower table is a whole mahogany screen, with a door on the left side, and a silk curtain with a picture of colorful butterflies and flowers hanging on the door. When I lifted the curtain and entered, I saw a mahogany flower table in the center of the room. The flower case is slightly higher, in the form of a table case, covered with golden brocade, and in the middle is placed a Jingdezhen green smoke begonia shaped flower pot after the rain, and what stands in the pot is naturally the tribute of western Yunnan - purple orchid.
