Chapter 19

Mr. Dai left after writing for a while, and Ah Xiu ordered someone to put away the recipe and came out of the house. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Bijin and Yan'er saw Ah Xiu standing still, and worked together to move out a bamboo couch, and Ah Xiu leaned under the eaves, waiting for the father and daughter to return. After a stick of incense, only Cheng Huan came back, and the palace maid followed behind with most of the basket of osmanthus flowers. Cheng Huan's face was covered with fine sweat, the fine hair on his face was shining, and Ah Xiu wiped her with a handkerchief: "Why did you run back alone." What about your father? ”

"I told my father that the osmanthus flowers in the west bloomed better than those in the palace in the east, and my father followed me all the way to pick flowers all the way, until I arrived at Yuhua Pavilion, where the palace room was still being built, and it was messy, so my father took me back around. When I came back, I passed by Changchun Palace, and there were people crying inside, and my father stood on his feet. I asked my father who was crying inside, and my father thought about it, and said that he would go in and have a look, so he asked me to send the flowers back first. Cheng Huanzai replied carefully.

"Changchun Palace......" Su Xin listened to the whispered chatter and frowned slightly. Ah Xiu turned his head and said, "If I'm not mistaken, Changchun Palace is where Tianying lives, right?" Su Xin had no choice but to reply: "Yes." Ah Xiu thought for a while: "I'm tired, Cheng Huan should be tired after running around like this, you go back and change your clothes and sleep to find your mother, okay?" ”

Cheng Huan nodded: "Then I'll help my mother go in first." Ah Xiu smiled and asked her to help her into the inner room to lie down, pretending to be asleep, and when Cheng Huan tiptoed out, Ah Xiu opened her eyes and looked at the bed curtain in a daze. Su Xin was worried and asked: "Do you send someone to tell Your Majesty about the pregnancy?" ”

"No need, just let people stew the soup and decoction according to Mr. Dai's recipe, since Your Majesty has not returned, naturally there is no hurry, let alone rush to Changchun Palace to report the good news now." Ah Xiu said lightly.

"Niangniang mind the one in Changchun Palace?" Su Xin gently fanned Ah Xiu. Ah Xiu shook her head: "She is the only blood and blood of her father, and it would be good if she could give birth to a boy and a half girl to inherit the incense, but she is too stubborn and affectionate, which reminds me of the situation when she committed suicide on the birthday of the prince in previous years, and it is a little taboo." ”

Bijin said: "If it weren't for the mother's quick eyes and quick hands that day, how could she be alive?" Ah Xiu smiled instead: "Yes, you naturally remember clearly, that day is also your birthday." 's face turned red, and she bowed her head and said nothing. Su Xin quipped: "It is often said that those born on the same month and day are husband and wife, why don't you let Niangniang open her mouth and point you to Your Majesty?" ”

Ah Xiu sneered: "When did Su Xin catch it like this?" Bi Jin twisted Su Xin: "Niangniang, don't listen to Sister Su Xin's random arrangement, there are more women in this palace, I am a cheap bone, I am used to being a slave, and I never want to be a master." Su Xin teased her again: "What's wrong with being the master?" ”

Bijin stomped his foot: "No matter how tall his master is, no matter how grace His Majesty is, he is always no taller than our queen mother, rather than sharing favor with others, it is better to marry a guard!" Seeing her, Ah Xiu hurriedly spoke out to relieve the siege: "Okay, okay, she just teased you, you can take it seriously, isn't there a ready-made one in this palace who is now a slave and maid?" Speaking of this, Ah Xiu paused, "How is Qiu Qin now?" ”

Su Xin also replied with a smile: "There are six remaining show girls living in Shouchang Palace, and there are many noisy people, so that's it." Ah Xiu thought for a while: "It's better to have a body and then lose it, it's actually more pitiful than having no hope, having hope and then losing it." ”

Bi Jin took a sip: "If you step on the master with your scheming, any blessing will be empty sooner or later." Ah Xiu comforted her: "Okay, okay, isn't the anger still gone?" Marry whoever you like, and I'll show you the right to marry. ”

Ying'er smiled: "Niangniang, don't pay attention to her, she has always been so stinky and temperamental." However, it was also a matter of the fact that the concubine and Hu Jieyu were not in harmony at the beginning, but now that the concubine is favored, it is normal for her life to be difficult. ”

Ah Xiu's heart suddenly moved: "The remaining six palace maids live with her?" Ying'er nodded. Ah Xiu was about to speak, when Zhu Yuanzhang's voice sounded outside: "I said that I will eat with flowers, this basket of osmanthus flowers is about to wilt, where is the queen lazy?" ”

Su Xin hurriedly stood up with a few girls to greet her, Ah Xiu was lazy and couldn't get up, Zhu Yuanzhang came in and waved a few people to avoid the salute, and asked Ah Xiu: "Queen Mother, aren't you happy?" Ah Xiu thought that he would rest at Tianying's place, but now he was in a good mood when he came back, and he was amused by his strange voice, and snorted: "It's not unpleasant." ”

Su Xin said with a smile: "Slaves and maids say hello to Your Majesty!" Ah Xiu blushed and glared at them, but Zhu Yuanzhang raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Oh? Where does the joy come from? Su Xin smiled: "Mr. Dai just left, and Niangniang has been pregnant for nearly two months." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang stood up straight and glared at Su Xin: "What did you say?!" Su Xin smiled and explained again, Zhu Yuanzhang squatted beside Ah Xiu and stroked Ah Xiu's belly: "Here, there is our emperor?!" ”

Ah Xiu smiled: "Why is it the emperor, not the princess, Your Majesty wants the emperor, but the concubine wants a princess." Zhu Yuanzhang said with a straight face: "Since the grace of heaven is vast, let Ah Xiu conceive the emperor's heir, I think it must be the emperor!" I want to make him the crown prince and let him inherit the throne! ”

Ah Xiu frowned: "If Your Majesty is like this, the concubine will not give birth to this child." Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, stopped stroking Ah Xiu's belly, and said quite unhappily: "Is the queen talking faintly!" The queen's sister-in-law is naturally a legitimate prince, and the queen actually said such a thing? What does it mean not to have this child? This is my blood and bones, and the queen can't play with her temper! ”

"Your Majesty's eldest son is a standard, no matter how virtuous or long-term, it should be a standard! Your Majesty cannot change the prince of the country because he loves his ministers and concubines. Ah Xiu also admitted the truth, "Everyone in the world knows that Biao'er is a concubine, how to abolish the elder and the young!" Biao'er is already thirteen, and it will be possible to tie his hair in less than two years, not to mention that Xu is a princess in the belly of the concubine, even if it is a prince, the position is the eighth prince, among the seven brothers in front, there are also two sisters-in-law, Your Majesty is called the world, what do you think of the brothers? ! ”

The two of them spoke fiercely, and you and I were at a stalemate, but someone came in from outside to gently persuade them: "The emperor and queen are one, why Your Majesty and the queen mother have to quarrel so fiercely, you can hear it from afar outside the palace." Zhu Yuanzhang turned around angrily, but it was Lian'er, and said angrily: "You came just in time, you are the closest to the queen in Su Ri, she is stubborn now, you come and persuade her!" ”

Lian'er bowed first, got up and asked with a smile, "What do you mean by what do you think?" Does Your Majesty have another heir? Zhu Yuanzhang pointed at Ah Xiu: "The queen has a concubine in her belly, but she refuses to let me make her the prince." (To be continued.) )
