Chapter 31: "Framed"

Since Duanmu Chen's inexplicable "confession" that day, Jiang Yan has never seen him again, and I heard Mu Lin, who occasionally came to deliver things, said that there were many things at the end of the year, and the emperor's busy foot was about to hit the back of the head.

In the blink of an eye, it was Chinese New Year's Eve.

On Chinese New Year's Eve, all the masters in the palace had to get up at the beginning of the year and go to the Taimiao Temple to worship their ancestors.

There are many ancestor worship ceremonies, and a three-grade concubine like Jiang Yan has to kneel in the cold wind outside the Taimiao Hall until noon, unable to drink water or eat.

Fortunately, Jiang Yan, as a special group of people, came to the temple early in the morning and bowed three times and bowed nine times, so she could go to the side hall to sit and rest peacefully.

After taking a sip of hot tea with satisfaction, Jiang Yan looked at the crowd kneeling outside the hall and began to seriously think about the feasibility of getting pregnant every Chinese New Year's Eve.

"I really envy you." Concubine Jing, who was sitting opposite her, suddenly spoke up.

Jiang Yan didn't expect that Concubine Jing, who was usually taciturn, would take the initiative to talk to her, she was stunned for a while, and quickly returned to her senses: "Sister Concubine Jing laughed, what is there to envy about my sister?" The younger sister's position is not as high as that of the elder sister, and the family background is even more average. "Concubine Jing has some questions, she still remembers.

"You don't have to be so defensive of me." Concubine Jing held her already huge belly, lowered her head slightly and said: "I don't have ...... this child's accident" paused, and said: "When it comes to family background, why don't I ......"

She raised her head, glanced at Jiang Yan quickly, and lowered her head again: "Fortunately, your family is very good to you." ”

Jiang Yan raised her eyebrows: "Since I entered the palace, I have never had contact with my family." Sighing slightly, he said, "Presumably, my mother has been corrected, and my younger brother is the treasure egg on the tip of my father's heart." Who remembers me? ”

"Once upon a time, too." Concubine Jing is still like that, without sadness or joy, and said in a very soft voice: "I complained at that time, but now I know that it is better to ......"

Her voice became smaller and smaller, Jiang Yan listened very hard, and couldn't help but look at her carefully, but was taken aback.

Counting that Concubine Jing's belly has been seven months, today because of the ancestor worship, she is wearing the crown dress of the second concubine, I can't see it, but if you take a closer look, you will find that in addition to the big belly supporting the clothes, Concubine Jing's whole person is thin.

Jiang Yan was a little sad, she was less than five months now, she felt that her appetite was great, and she couldn't hold it back when she ate it, Concubine Jing's body was really unbearable to look at it anymore, she also lowered her gaze, and said softly: "No matter what happens, my sister must take care of her body, even for the sake of the dragon heir in her belly, and she must also take care of herself." ”

Concubine Jing seemed to smile, and said softly, "Thank you, sister." ”

The two continued to fall silent, but Jiang Yan was no longer in the mood to pay attention to how hard the people outside knelt. Even if there are people sitting in the room, there are many uncomfortable people.

finally waited until noon, and a little eunuch came to invite the two of them to Tianyou Palace for dinner. Jiang Yan stood up, walked to the door, and respectfully waited for Concubine Jing to go first, who knew that Concubine Jing whispered something in her ear, she was stunned, Concubine Jing had already rolled down the steps of the door.

The screams of the palace maids, the chaotic running of the little eunuchs, and the large area of blood red under Concubine Jing......

Jiang Yan was confused, and she seemed to be able to hear the words that Concubine Jing said in her ear: "I'm sorry for you, but I'm ...... There is no way, take good care of your child, he is a blessing. ”

Until she was led to the emperor and queen, Jiang Yan still felt a little unable to come back to her senses.

Duanmu Chen saw Jiang Yan's face pale, knowing that she was frightened, sighed and asked her to sit on the side first.

Shen Yaohe also believed Jiang Yan, but when Concubine Jing had an accident, only the two masters were in the side hall, so she could only ask her first: "Concubine Zhen, how could Concubine Jing roll down the stairs when she is so dignified?" You were on the side at the time, but what happened? ”

Jiang Yan stood up in a daze, and just as Fu Shen wanted to answer, Duanmu Chen said impatiently: "Sit and say." ”

Jiang Yan sat down again in a daze, opened her mouth a few times, and then found her voice: "Concubine, concubine didn't see ...... clearly"

The two people in the audience frowned, Duanmu Chen thought about it, and nodded at the little eunuch who went to call them: "You say." ”

"Minion, the minion was ordered to call the two masters to come to the Heavenly Blessing Palace...... "The little eunuch was already frightened, and stammered.

"Let's get to the point, how did Concubine Jing get down?" Duanmu Chen was very displeased.

"Concubine Jing, Concubine Jing fell down by herself......" The little eunuch lay on the ground, trembling.

Duanmu Chen and Shen Yaohe breathed a sigh of relief, while Concubine De wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "Sister Concubine Jing is too pitiful, it's okay, why did you get down by yourself?" What do you say, sister Zhen? ”

"The concubine doesn't know." Jiang Yan said woodenly. She really didn't know what Concubine Jing's reason was for doing this.

"Hey, what was Concubine Zhen doing before Concubine Jing fell?" Concubine De covered half of her face with a handkerchief and asked the little eunuch.

"It seems to be, it seems that Concubine Jing said something to Concubine Zhen, Concubine Zhen didn't move, Concubine Jing Niangniang just fell down." The little eunuch replied.

Finally asked for useful information, Concubine De didn't take the veil anymore, but just choked up and said, "Poor Sister Jing, I'm still unconscious." I don't know what my sister said to Sister Jane before she fell? ”

At this time, even Duanmu Chen's eyes looked at Jiang Yan with an inquiry.

Jiang Yan smiled bitterly, what should she say?

I had to keep silent.

Fortunately, at this time, the imperial doctor came to report that Concubine Jing and the child were fine. The side hall is not commonly used, and the steps at the door are only two or three floors, although Concubine Jing is thin but the fetus has been raised well, several imperial doctors have joined forces, and they have been saved.

Duanmu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand, and said, "Since Concubine Jing is fine, forget about this matter." ”

Concubine De's eyes widened, and just as she wanted to say something more, Shen Yaohe answered: "Exactly, since the little eunuch saw that Concubine Jing fell by herself, it has nothing to do with Concubine Zhen." Concubine Zhen's sister was also frightened, so she went back to recuperate, and she didn't have to come to the vigil at night. "On the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone in the harem has to go to the queen's palace to keep watch until the time of the child.

Li Yarou sneered from beginning to end, she knew that not to mention that Concubine Jing was fine, even if Concubine Jing had two lives, Duanmuchen would not seek any justice for her. What is called hard-heartedness, she once again understood.

Jiang Yan was blessed: "The concubine is fine, thank you for the love of the emperor and queen." Concubines...... I want to go and see Sister Jingfei. ”

Duanmu Chen nodded: "Let's go together." ”

Due to the chaos, Concubine Jing was just arranged in the apse of the small palace room next to the Taimiao. When Jiang Yan and the others arrived, she had already woken up, touching her stomach with one hand and looking at her eyes with holes.

"Sister Jingfei." Jiang Yan said softly, I don't know why, although Concubine Jing's actions today can be regarded as a malicious frame-up, but Jiang Yan only has deep sympathy for her.

He ...... It's okay? Concubine Jing asked with the same expression.

"It's okay, the little prince is blessed with a great life, and the imperial doctor said that my sister only needs to recuperate for a few days." Jiang Yan gently stroked the hand that Concubine Jing put on her stomach, and said gently: "The child is innocent, I still hope that my sister will take care of herself." ”

"Childish and innocent...... Childish innocent............" Concubine Jing repeated twice, suddenly burst into tears, and laughed again: "Hahahahaha ”

"Concubine Jing!" Duanmu Chen shouted displeasedly: "Do you know the charge of deliberately mutilating the dragon heir? ”

Shen Yaohe hurriedly answered: "Concubine Xu is Jing was tripped by the threshold, it must not be intentional. Then he sat next to Concubine Jing, helped her wipe her tears, and said softly: "You don't have to think so much, just recuperate for a few days and give birth to the child." ”

Luo Jia...... Shen Yaohe also knows a few points in the end, and she can guess a thing or two about today's events. The unappreciated woman in the family is fated to be like this.

picked up the handkerchief and pressed the corner of her eyes, Shen Yaohe hurriedly ordered someone to carry the soft sedan chair and send Concubine Jing back to Xian Ya Palace.

"It's really not easy for Sister Concubine Jing to conceive this child." Liu Xiaxuan also said while wiping the corners of her eyes.

"Hey," as if she was reminded of the past, Concubine De also sighed: "When a woman gives birth to a child, it is a trip between life and death." She glanced at Jiang Yan again: "Sister Zhen should also take care." ”

"Nonsense!" Duanmu Chen was very unhappy: "No one will be fine!" Okay, let's all go to the Heavenly Blessing Palace. "This banquet at noon, as well as all the princes and ministers, is really late now.

At a feast, Jiang Yan ate very little. Things went smoothly before and after, and she already roughly understood what Concubine Jing meant. The more I understand, the more sympathetic I feel.

"Hey." Jiang Yan couldn't help but sigh again.

"Hmph." According to the position, Li Yarou happened to be sitting next to her, and when she heard her sigh, she was very disdainful: "The cat cries for mice." ”

Jiang Yan was so mentally blocked that she didn't pay attention to her.

Li Yarou waited for a while and didn't respond, then sneered and said, "What's the use of you acting here?" Why don't you think of a way to help her? ”

"How can I help?" Jiang Yan is still very unenergetic.

Li Yarou snorted: "Just kill her father who has a sick brain." ”

Jiang Yan glanced at her speechlessly, it was too whimsical.

"You know it's impossible, so there's no way." Li Yarou took a glass of wine and drank it all: "It's the most stupid thing to worry about what you can't do." As he spoke, he glanced at her from the corner of his eye, full of ridicule.

Jiang Yan sighed again, raised the teacup and gestured to her, and drank it in one gulp.

At night, when I went to Kunyuan Palace to keep vigil, it was peaceful, and everyone was happy and said auspicious words, hoping that the new year would be happy and safe.

What made the concubines even happier was that at the end of the day, Duanmuchen also came over. Suddenly, the whole hall was even more happy, and the sound of swallows and warblers was endless.

Jiang Yan still deliberately sat next to Li Yarou, and at this time, watching her pour wine cup by glass, she couldn't help but say, "Sister Li, aren't you going to talk to the emperor?" ”

"What is there to say?" Li Yarou said with a smile while pouring wine, she looked extremely cold, even if she was laughing at this time, it was like a piece of ice: "Where can the emperor have so much to say, but it is perfunctory." Boring. ”

Jiang Yan raised her eyebrows, didn't speak, and only slowly sipped a bird's nest specially prepared for her by Shen Yaohe.

"Where's Sister Zhen? Why don't you join in the fun? Li Yarou drank another glass of wine, laughed at her and said, "Doesn't the emperor love to talk to Sister Zhen the most?" ”

Jiang Yan smiled: "I usually talk a lot, and I don't care about this." ”

"Hahaha," Li Yarou smiled, "That's good! He held up the cup: "To you!" ”

Jiang Yan also raised the bird's nest in her hand helplessly, and probably understood that Li Yarou was probably drunk.

As soon as the time passed, the concubines asked for their resignation one after another, and Li Yarou also stood up and patted Jiang Yan on the shoulder: "Drink it another day!" He staggered and was helped away by the palace maid.

Jiang Yan lowered her head and smiled, thinking for the first time that Li Yarou was also quite cute.

It's a pity that being born a woman always has all kinds of unsatisfactory expectations.
