Chapter 204: Relatives Examination (1)
Three months later, Zhuang Feiyu gave birth to a baby boy. Because Zhuang Feiyu was detained during pregnancy, the child was frightened in the womb, and was born prematurely in less than a month, with a weak constitution and a pitiful thinness. However, no one in the palace was willing to pity a newborn baby, and on the second day after the child was born, Queen Nan ordered all the concubines in the palace to come to verify the identity of the child.
Tang Bujing had come to the Feather Coat Palace half a month ago, checked Zhuang Feiyu's pulse, found that her fetal movements were abnormal, and predicted that Zhuang Feiyu was likely to give birth prematurely. Not long after, Han Xi secretly entered the Feather Cloak Palace under Situ Mu's arrangement. Through Tang Bujing's disguise technique, Han Xi disguised himself as Zhuang Feiyu's personal maid Yuerong. For half a month, Han Xi has been by Zhuang Feiyu's side and told her the original of their plan. Everything, just wait for the child to be born, and it will go according to the promise.
Situ Bi had just left the early dynasty when he was asked to leave by someone sent by Queen Nan to prepare for a family inspection. The main hall of Fengqi Palace, which has always been quiet and solemn, has already been densely packed with people. The little masters of each palace, regardless of their position, were all summoned. In addition, several inner wives and princesses were also invited. In addition, the four respected old ladies who were summoned for the purpose of inspecting their relatives, as well as the palace maids and attendants brought by each palace, dozens of people gathered in one place, and for a while, the huge Fengqi Palace Chaofeng Hall seemed a little crowded.
Queen Nan sat on the phoenix seat in the hall, wearing a honey-colored Zhai Fenghua dress, and the cuffs and neckline were embroidered with complex and dazzling golden phoenix feather patterns. Her hair is coiled high, and it is decorated with a gilded phoenix crown of southern pearls, a golden hairpin ruby step, and a jasper golden cicada pressed hair, with jewels, tourmalines, purple ying and other objects as embellishments. Queen Nan was once a beauty who was in full bloom. In addition, it is properly maintained, and after dressing up, it is more dignified and elegant, and the posture is dazzling. It has been more than 20 years since she became the mother of the Middle Palace, and Queen Nan has always been low-key and frugal, and rarely dresses up like this. Therefore, as soon as the concubines came to Fengqi Palace, they were also very surprised to see such a queen. But after thinking about it carefully, he immediately understood the queen's intentions, and looked towards the center of the main hall in unison.
Zhuang Feiyu has also been invited from the Feather Coat Palace. Only her personal maid is followed by her. Shortly after production. She was still unable to get up and walk on her own, and she was very weak. Because of her thoughtfulness during pregnancy, Zhuang Feiyu's skin was far less crystal clear than before, and her complexion was slightly gray. She wore only a simple, loose skirt. Covered with a heavy silver fox leather jacket. There are no elaborate hair ornaments and gorgeous palace dresses. Such a Zhuang Fei language looks pitiful. See each other. The queen in the costume clearly had the upper hand.
As everyone knows, since the queen married into the royal family, she has always been very respected by Situ Bi. The position in the harem is also unshakable, and none of the concubines in the harem can shake her status. Until Zhuang Fei appeared, in just three years, he completely covered the scenery of the queen. Although the queen is still very virtuous and generous on weekdays, everyone knows that she hates Concubine Zhuang who favored the sixth palace at a young age!
Today, the queen finally has a chance to take down her powerful enemy. The bureau she single-handedly planned forced Concubine Zhuang to death step by step. She just wants to dress up and send her, so that Zhuang Feiyu knows, and everyone knows who is the real master of the harem!
No matter how much she hated it in her heart, Queen Nan still behaved very compassionately, and personally ordered someone to carry a boxwood chair, on which thick futons and cushions were laid, so that Zhuang Feiyu could sit down.
"Liu Xin, put a charcoal basin in front of Concubine Zhuang to warm her body." After Zhuang Feiyu took her seat, Queen Nan instructed the palace maid with the highest rank on her side, saying, "It's been cold recently, and this woman who has just given birth to a child is weak, so she can't stand the cold!" ”
Liu Xin answered, and immediately held a charcoal basin that burned extremely vigorously and put it in front of Zhuang Feiyu.
The heat is pouring out, and it's really comfortable. Zhuang Feiyu looked at the queen with a kind smile, as if she was just inviting everyone over today and gossiping. She was very disgusted with the queen's inconsistent and virtuous appearance, but she also had to put on a grateful look on her face: "The concubine thanks the queen for her compassion." The concubine is weak and can't go down to the ground to ask Niangniang for thanks, and I hope that Niangniang will forgive me. ”
"Where is Sister Zhuang's words," Queen Nan still had a smile on her face, "Your body is important, what are you doing with these false courtesies?" ”
In the Chaofeng Palace, only these two people greeted each other, and the rest of them were silent. The high-ranking concubines are all people who have seen the deceit in the palace, and they can be promoted to today's position step by step, and they also have some means, so they choose to look at the nose and the nose and the heart. Some people who have not been in the palace for a long time or have never been favored are not so calm. Although they didn't dare to say anything, they looked at the queen and Concubine Zhuang curiously, wanting to see how the two most eye-catching women in the harem would start a battle.
It wasn't until the eunuch outside the door shouted "The emperor has arrived" at the top of his voice that everyone collected their thoughts, knelt on the ground in a solemn manner, and asked for peace in unison: "The concubines welcome Your Majesty, Your Majesty is blessed and safe!" ”
Situ Bi was accompanied by Wan Hai, the chief supervisor of the internal prison, and strode into the Chaofeng Palace. He walked all the way over, didn't pay attention to others, and at first glance saw Zhuang Feiyu who was holding the maid and kneeling on the ground. Coincidentally, Zhuang Feiyu also raised his head, a pair of graceful eyes with tears, looking back at him affectionately. Concubine Zhuang was a lot haggard, and the sharpness and pride that once belonged to her seemed to have been smoothed out. Situ Bi thought so, and felt pity and pity in his heart. He had to admit that he liked this girl from the bottom of his heart. Her brightness, her intelligence, her fearlessness, her wantonness, all attracted him in such a way.
Situ Bi sighed almost inaudibly, retracted his thoughts, and no longer looked at Zhuang Feiyu, but stretched out his hand to help the queen and smiled: "The queen is the mother of the country, there is no need to give me such a big gift, hurry up!" ”
Queen Nan keenly captured the deep attachment and reluctance to Zhuang Feiyu in Situ Bi's eyes, and she was unhappy, but she didn't show it at all. She stood respectfully opposite Situ Bi: "Although the concubine is the mother of the people in the world, she is also the queen of His Majesty. His Majesty is the Son of Heaven and the King to his concubines. The concubines rule the six palaces, and they must set an example in everything, how can they not bow in front of your sisters? ”
Situ Bi patted her hand: "It's the Son of Heaven, it's the king, but the most important thing is the husband." The queen always keeps etiquette like this, but she teaches us that the relationship between husband and wife is separated, right? ”
The emperor and queen spoke one by one, as if everyone else was like air. Especially Situ Bi's words to Queen Nan made the concubines who were still kneeling on the ground and did not dare to get up jealous and envious, and the atmosphere was a little embarrassing for a while. It was still Wan Hai's thoughts, and he immediately said with a smile: "Your Majesty and Niangniang, it can be said that they are a husband and wife, and they are really envious of the old slave!" It's just that Your Majesty, our mothers and masters, are still kneeling, look at ......"
After being reminded by Wan Haiyi, Situ Bi remembered that he had not yet made everyone get up, so he smiled and immediately said: "Everyone, concubines, give you a seat!" (To be continued.) )
