After playing in Beizhuang for nearly half a year, Jiang Yan couldn't help but sigh when she thought of returning to the high city wall to stop it, that boxy world, and that little Yonghua Zhai.
Duanmu Chen looked at her wrinkled little face with amusement: "So reluctant? I'll take you back next year to escape the summer. ā
Escape the summer? Jiang Yan pursed her lips, the quality assurance of the system, she must be pregnant now, and the due date is next summer, how can she come to Beizhuang to play again.
"There are a lot of rules in the palace, and they are ......" Jiang Yan bit her lip and whispered: "Ask the queen mother to get up early......
"Hahaha," Duanmu Chen smiled: "I'm going to go to the court when I'm in Yin, but you just go to the queen to say goodbye at the end of the day, and it's too early to get up?" ā
"The emperor is the Son of Heaven and the Lord of the people, so he naturally has to be diligent, and the concubine is a little girl......" Jiang Yan was a little sleepy, although the emperor's carriage was big and spacious, much more comfortable than Jiang Yan's own carriage, but no matter how comfortable it was, it was just a carriage, and it made her just want to sleep.
Duanmu Chen looked speechlessly at the person who was still chatting just now, lying on the table and snoring lightly, couldn't help laughing, helped Jiang Yan up from the table, let her sleep more comfortably with her head resting on her lap, and picked up a book casually and read it.
When she was about to arrive at the gate of the palace, Jiang Yan was woken up, Duanmu Chen looked at her reddish little face that was sleeping, couldn't help but peck, and said: "I just remembered that the Yonghua Zhai where you live is too far away from the queen's Kunyuan Palace and my Qiankun Palace, and I will see that the palace is still empty after I go back, so let you move there first." ā
Jiang Yan rubbed her eyes: "Yonghuazhai is very good, although it is a little smaller, I live by myself and is clean." "She is a five-grade Jieyu, I'm afraid she is going to live in someone else's side hall.
Duanmu Chen obviously thought of this too, didn't say anything, only gently smoothed her hair that was a little messy when she was sleeping, because she was about to get to the palace, it was not good for her to be seen sitting on the dragon, so he asked Mu Lin to stop a little and let Jiang Yan return to his car.
Jiang Yan, who returned to Yonghuazhai, let Pei Lan and them pack up their things, fell on the bed and began to fall asleep, and when she woke up, it was already dark outside.
"Perran?" Jiang Yan whispered.
"Master," but it was a star: "Today is the slave and maid on duty, but the master has something to find Aunt Peilan?" ā
Night watch? Jiang Yan asked, "What time is it?" ā
"Back to the master, it's already the fourth watch." Light a star and light a lamp, and hold the small table next to Jiang Yan's bed: "The master has been sleeping since he returned to the palace, and dinner is useless, are you hungry at this time?" There is still five-kernel glutinous porridge on the stove, can the master use some? ā
Speaking of food, Jiang Yan felt that she was really hungry, so she nodded, and then instructed again: "It's going to be October soon, and it's cold at night, so you might as well put a bowl to warm your body, and you can accompany me." ā
"Thank you, master, that little star is getting more and more momentary." Dianxing responded with a smile and trotted to serve porridge.
Jiang Yan smiled slightly, Dianxing is younger than Yulan, naturally more lively, she is neither ready to have a disagreement with the queen, nor does she care about the queen's person, anyway, Dianxing embroidery is so good, it is better to take advantage of herself!
After drinking a bowl of porridge hotly, Jiang Yan felt a lot more comfortable, looked out the window, it was still early, so she sent some stars to continue to sleep, she also turned off the light, lay on the bed and tried to fall asleep again, and after a while, she really fell asleep again.
The next morning, when I got up to say hello to the queen, all the concubines were dazed by a big bomb - Concubine Luo was pregnant!
And that belly looks at least five months old!
Even the queen looked at Concubine Luo dumbfounded and asked, "Concubine Luo, what are you ......?"
"Back to the queen's mother, the concubine is pregnant...... It's been more than five months. Concubine Luo stood up and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Well, sit down and talk." The queen calmed down for a moment, and then asked, "Why didn't you come to report before?" Can you ask the doctor to ask for a pulse on time? ā
Concubine Luo sat upright, lowered her head, and replied: "Don't hide it from the queen, since the beginning of this year, the emperor has only come to Xian Ya Palace once, or at the end of May...... Later, the emperor and queen all went to Beizhuang, and the concubines took over the palace affairs at the beginning, and they were busy for a while, and they didn't care about whether the kuishui was normal. In August, the concubine wanted to vomit when she smelled the fishy smell, only to find out that something was wrong, and called the imperial doctor to take a look and found out that it had been more than three months. She paused and continued: "But at that time, the concubine just learned about Concubine Zhao's sister, thinking that the emperor and the queen must be sad for Concubine Zhao's sister, so she didn't let anyone report it, so she ......."
Speaking of this, Concubine Luo had to stand up and bow again: "The concubine was thoughtful, and she failed to report it to the mother in time, and she hoped that the queen would atone for her sins!" ā
The queen hurriedly let Shuangyu hold her and stopped her from bowing down again: "Concubine Luo is pregnant with the imperial heir, so there is no need to salute again." Dai Yun, you go and report this matter to the emperor, the emperor must be happy to know it! Little bird, go and call the Imperial Doctor. Imperial Physician Wang can be regarded as a golden saint, and it is appropriate for Concubine Luo to let him be diagnosed again. ā
Concubine Luo replied in a low voice.
After the initial shock, the queen was finally able to arrange things normally: "Since Concubine Luo is pregnant, there is no need to come to the palace every day to ask for peace." After the Imperial Physician Wang has seen it, if you think it is good, ask him to go to you once every three days to ask for a safe pulse. Is the arrangement in the palace appropriate? Later, the palace will ask the emperor to take care of the two pregnant mothers and ...... you."
After babbling a lot, the queen stopped to take a sip of tea, and couldn't help but complain to Concubine Luo: "Concubine Luo is pregnant for the first time, she should have reported it earlier, otherwise if something happens if she doesn't take care of it, won't it make the emperor and the palace feel uncomfortable?" ā
Concubine Luo still bowed her head and said yes.
Concubine De smiled and said, "Doesn't the queen still know Concubine Luo's temperament?" We have been waiting for the emperor for many years, Sister Luo has always been quiet, what my sister said to the queen just now, but the concubine has known her sister for so many years, and she has heard the longest sentence that her sister said. He laughed.
The queen was also a little laughed by her: "No, Concubine Luo is the first old man to accompany the emperor, since the palace entered the mansion, I only heard Concubine Luo say so many things today." ā
Everyone laughed, and then said hello to Concubine Luo, who was still like that, hanging her head slightly and not talking much.
After they dispersed, Li Yarou walked to Jiang Yan's side as if carelessly, and while waiting for the high-ranking concubine to leave first, she said, "I don't see that this Concubine Luo is quite scheming." ā
Jiang Yan's eyebrows did not move: "My sister doesn't understand what Sister Yan means." ā
"Hmph, who doesn't know that the first trimester of pregnancy is the most dangerous, and she can delay until this time to be discovered. Not to mention that we have no news in Beizhuang, it is Concubine Lin and Concubine Zhang who stayed in the palace, I am afraid that they don't know that Concubine Luo is pregnant. Li Yarou looked into the distance and said with disdain.
The high-ranking concubines had already left, so Jiang Yan bent her knees and said, "Congratulations to Sister Yancai." ā
"Huh." Li Yarou laughed, glanced at Jiang Yan meaninglessly, and left.
"Master, what does this, Master Yan mean?" Perrin asked worriedly.
Jiang Yan lowered her eyes: "Probably in a hurry." ā
To say that Li Yarou, who has just been reborn, still hates Duanmu Chen very much and doesn't want him to get close, but now I'm afraid I don't think like this anymore, and when I see Concubine Luo pregnant today, I will inevitably be a little anxious.
The slave and maid looked at her, and she seemed to look at her master differently. But do you want to join forces with your master? Perrin frowned.
"Not necessarily." Jiang Yan pursed her lips and thought about it, "It's okay, it's just a move." After that, he patted Peilan's arm and returned to Yonghuazhai.
Soon the reward given by the emperor to Concubine Luo arrived at Xian Ya Palace, and after the queen asked for peace, she took the imperial physician to Concubine Luo's palace. At this time, all the concubines naturally couldn't sit still, so they packed a few gifts and arrived at Xian Ya Palace.
When Jiang Yan arrived, the east hall of Xian Ya Palace was almost full of people, she stepped forward with a smile, handed a small green jade kang screen and a piece of black jade paperweight she brought to Imperial Doctor Wang to check, and said: "My sister is stupid, I don't know what Sister Luo likes. It took a long time to choose these two things, and my sister is excellent whether she is posing for it or usually holding it for fun. ā
Concubine Luo's face was calm, she was wearing a set of light apricot clothes at this time, half-sitting on the bed, and nodded with a smile when she heard the words: "Thank you Sister Zhen for remembering." ā
The queen was sitting on the edge of Concubine Luo's bed, and her eyes narrowed when she saw Jiang Yan handing the things she brought to the imperial doctor, and then she bowed her head and said: "Zhen Jieyu is a good one, this palace sees that these two things are very transparent and exquisitely made, so you are willing to give it up." ā
"Zhen Jieyu is favored by the emperor, just one or two things, what is there to be reluctant to, the queen feels sorry for her." Concubine Ning squinted and answered.
Jiang Yan only smiled, didn't say anything, and after giving another blessing to the queen and Concubine Luo, she stood behind the people.
The queen frowned and glanced at Concubine Ning, but didn't say anything, only patted Concubine Luo's hand and said: "The emperor has been on the throne for three years, and the heirs are still thinner. Send someone to tell the palace what you want to eat and drink, but you also have to listen to the pregnant mother, don't eat anything you shouldn't eat. This palace knows that you are a good person, so I won't say much, you have a good rest. He glanced back at the room and said with a smile: "I'll take this group of people away for you, so I won't quarrel with you." ā
After listening to the queen's words, everyone was also blessed, and after saying hello to Concubine Luo, they walked out of Xian Ya Palace.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the palace, I saw a few people coming from afar, and the queen asked with a smile: "But what did the emperor reward Concubine Luo again?" ā
After Mu Lin bent down and saluted everyone, he replied: "The emperor decreed that Concubine Luo had made a meritorious contribution to giving birth to the emperor's heir, and rewarded her with the title of 'Jing', and at the same time allowed Xian Ya Palace to open her own small kitchen, and asked the servants to bring two grandmothers who were proficient in cooking. ā
The scene was silent for a moment, but the queen smiled and said: "The emperor has a heart, so you can go to Xian Ya Palace to announce the decree, compared to Sister Luo, she will be very happy to know it." Oh, it should be called Sister Concubine Jing now. ā
The rest of the concubines, regardless of their faces, also echoed one after another, and Mu Lin bowed again and hurriedly announced the decree.
