Chapter 214: Mid-Autumn Festival
Yuqing Palace, East Side Palace.
Yuxia drove all the waiting servants out of the room, leaving only one kumquat, closed the door, and the master and servant whispered.
"How? Did you find it? Yuxia asked. These days, she has never seen Yu Xin again, Yu Xin closed the door to thank guests, and entrusted the palace affairs to a few grandmothers to handle it all, unless she encountered particularly important affairs, she didn't care about the rest. only said that he was in a small health.
Imperial Doctor Gong also came to see it every once in a while. Externally, it is said that the crown princess is overworked, and she has to live and recuperate. Yu Xin directly exempted Yuxia and the concubines and nobles from the morning and dusk. This Yuxia can't even find an excuse to see her.
Yuxia was very uneasy, a woman has a son to rely on. If Yuxin gives birth to a son, even if the prince doesn't like her, he will give her a little dignity in the child's face. When the time comes, it will be even more difficult to squeeze her out of the position and take the position herself.
So if she is really pregnant, this child must not be allowed to be born!
Kumquat said: "The slave and maid quietly inquired around, and there is no clue so far. Although the crown princess failed to hold the prince's heart, she held Yuqing Palace tightly in the palm of her hand. ”
Yuxia couldn't help but show disappointment when she heard this. Kumquat said: "In the courtyard of the main hall of the crown princess, you can often smell the smell of boiling medicine, and you can smell it far away when the wind blows. It looks like he's really sick! ”
Yuxia thought for a while and said, "Boiling medicine may also be a tocolytic!" Her eyes lit up, and she proposed: "Can you buy the mother-in-law who poured the medicine, get some medicine residue, and ask the doctor to test it?" ”
Kumquat shook his head and said in distress; "The slave and maid tried, but even the rough maid in the courtyard of the main hall had a very tight mouth, and refused to ask for money. The crown princess's house was even more difficult to enter. The medicine room and kitchen are also on alert, and irrelevant people go in, and if they are caught, they will be beaten and thrown out of the palace immediately! ”
Yuxia's face was ugly, she didn't expect that the hot-tempered eighth sister would become so difficult to deal with now. "Isn't there a way?"
Kumquat said: "I just heard that Grandma Qigu sent two grandmothers to the crown princess last time, and now they are waiting by the princess's side!" This is the palace maid Yang Liu who is in charge of the flower garden told the slave maid that her godmother was waiting in the main hall of the crown princess, and one day she drank too much wine and revealed it to Yang Liu Zhidao. ”
Yuxia's hands clenched tightly unconsciously, and her two eyes rolled wildly: "Grandma Seventh and the crown princess have such a good relationship, they will definitely not send two mothers-in-law in for no reason." What the hell are these two mammas doing? Could it be to help her keep the baby? "The so-called suspicion gives rise to dark ghosts, the more Yuxia thinks about it, the more she thinks it may be like this.
Kumquat snorted: "Master, let's not check, right?" The crown princess is so strict, even if we find out that she is really pregnant, there is nothing we can do about her! "She has used all her strength to breastfeed during this time, but she hasn't even touched the edge of the princess's main hall.
Yuxia said viciously: "No. This little slut must not be asked to give birth to a child like this! We can't let her have a miscarriage ourselves, so let's spread the news quietly, the harem is so big, and we are not the ones who think she is unlucky. The Chengqian Palace will definitely not want to see the crown princess give birth to the emperor's eldest grandson! Hum! ”
Kumquat saw a crazy light flashing in Yuxia's eyes, and her face became distorted, and she suddenly didn't dare to persuade again.
A few days later, the news of the crown princess's pregnancy quietly spread in the palace.
Chengqian Palace.
Concubine Xiao reclined on the throne, and the two eleven or twelve-year-old little palace maids knelt on the ground and pinched her legs. At this time, the eldest aunt of Chengqian Palace hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words in Concubine Xiao's ear.
Concubine Xiao's originally lazy posture straightened up suddenly. He sat up straight and asked, "Really?" She glanced at the two little palace maids: "You two go down first!" ”
The little palace maid Shi Li stepped backwards and closed the palace door, and the eldest aunt said in a low voice; "The news came from Yuqing Palace. It is not yet possible to determine whether it is true or not. ”
Concubine Xiao frowned: "The emperor has been talking about hugging his grandson more than once. Now that the clan is withering, the emperor is old again, and he takes the dragonborn very seriously. If the crown princess is asked to give birth to a son, it will be a big trouble! ”
The eldest aunt said: "All the people we planted in Yuqing Palace have been pulled out by the crown princess, and if you do it now, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult!" ”
Concubine Xiao smiled faintly and said, "The crown princess is a smart one!" It's a pity that the queen and the crown prince are too stupid. He picked up the tea bowl on the table and took a sip, and said: "If you want to do something to the crown princess, you don't necessarily have to be in Yuqing Palace!" ”
The eldest aunt's face changed slightly: "You mean ......"
Concubine Xiao had a grim smile on her face. "However, our plan has been arranged in a step-by-step manner, and it is really not appropriate to start some branches in vain at this time! This matter, let Bengong think about it carefully! ”
The eldest aunt suggested, "Why don't you invite the two Xiao elders to come in and discuss!" ”
Concubine Xiao said with a smile: "You said yes, spread a message, ask the mother's family of the palace to hand over the sign to come in, the palace has not seen them for a while!" After thinking about it, he said: "Then ask someone to keep an eye on Yuqing Palace to see if the princess is happy!" ”
The eldest aunt responded: "The slave knows what to do!" ”
At the same time. In Jingyang Palace, Concubine Hui also got the news. She was keenly aware that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. She paced slowly in the side hall until she finally stopped. "Go and call His Royal Highness King Lu!"
A confidant palace maid beside her was stunned: "Niangniang! This kind of thing ...... "Shouldn't it be called King Lu Zhidao?"
Concubine Hui sighed and said, "This palace has been planning for so long, and it's not all for him!" He should know a little bit about it, too! ”
The palace maid was still a little hesitant: "But His Highness is only twelve years old this year!" ”
Concubine Hui smiled indifferently, her face full of pride: "He has grown up, and he is no longer a child." "Since Ye Yichen and Yulan got married, Ye Minzhao has grown up at a very fast speed, becoming sensible, calm, and gloomy. The two elder brothers were gradually estranged by the emperor, but he coaxed the emperor happily every day. The palace maid saw all these things, and she sighed slightly in her heart, saying that tribulations will make people grow, which is not bad at all.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a big festival, and there are a lot of things to be busy with. Yulan arranged to give gifts to each family, and also received gifts from the family to the palace, and was so busy that his feet touched the ground. Just at this point, Ye Minwen was moved to the main courtyard, and Yulan at least devoted most of his mind to Ye Minwen. I can't wait to split myself in half.
As the festival approached, all families not only sent gifts, but also sent their mothers-in-law to ask for peace. Yulan can't be seen if he can, but there are some people who have a good relationship with Ye Yichen outside, so Yulan can't be seen. At the end of this day, there are no less than a dozen people who can't be seen in this way, ushering in and sending them off, talking for entertainment, can't put too much on the spectrum, and can't lose the princess's share, Yulan has a sore back at the end of the day.
On this day, Ye Yichen got off the ya, returned to the main courtyard, and saw that Yulan was so tired that he didn't want to speak. The maids served him and changed his clothes, Ye Yichen sat beside Yulan, put one hand on her shoulder, and said with a smile: "What's wrong?" How many people do you see in a day, and you are tired like this? Do you want me to ask two little maids to pinch it for you, loose and loose? ”
Yulan leaned to the side, pressed his weight on Ye Yichen's body, glanced at Ye Yichen and said, "No sincerity!" ”
The maids serving on the side have long been accustomed to it. If this was another person talking to the prince like this, he would have been dragged down and beaten a board a long time ago. But the princess...... No matter what he says, the prince will never be angry.
Ye Yichen reacted for a moment before he reacted. "You're telling me to pinch you?"
Yulan nodded, didn't you just want you to pinch me? I can't call a little girl myself!
Ye Yichen showed a wicked smile on his face: "Are you sure?" ”
Yulan nodded again and again, what is uncertain about this!
The maids on one side are stupid! Ask the prince to pinch her shoulder? They have a feeling of shattered views!
Who knew that Ye Yichen really agreed. He rolled up his sleeves and said, "Then the king will come and wait for you!" ”
Yulan sat down beautifully, waiting for Ye Yichen to serve her. asked a handsome guy like Ye Yichen to pinch her shoulder, and when she thought about it, she felt energetic, the key is that he is still a prince with such a high status, and others have always waited for him!
After a while, Yulan knew how to write the word "cup".
"Ahhh Yulan's screams could be heard ten miles away in the wind. She looked at Ye Yichen with tears in her eyes and complained, "Lord Wang, can't you just be light?" ”
Ye Yichen saw that her tears were about to come out, and she looked very innocent: "I'm useless!" "The prince's martial arts are extremely high, and his hand strength is also very big, it really doesn't use much energy, but Yulan's small body can't stand it!
"Again, I'll be lighter this time!"
Where did Yulan dare to let him come again: "Forget it!" I've been much looser, much looser! ”
Ye Yi looked at her very much and just smiled.
Yulan moved his shoulders, although it hurt terribly just now, and after the pain passed, it was really a lot looser now. Yulan couldn't help but be amazed.
Ye Yichen sat down and talked to her about business: "According to the rules of the Mid-Autumn Festival, you have to enter the palace to receive the banquet!" ”
Yulan nodded, she knew these rules before she entered the palace. In order to express the celebration of the whole world, the emperor will generally hold a banquet in the Taihe Palace, and the princes and ministers, civil and military officials above the third rank will enter the palace to receive the banquet. The queen gave a banquet in Kunning Palace, and the internal and external wives also went to Kunning Palace to receive the banquet.
Of course, it is a very face-saving thing to be able to enter the palace to receive the banquet, but if you want to deal with so many nobles, the things in the palace must not be eaten well, and you feel tired when you think about Yulan. But at this time, she categorically couldn't back down, so she said: "I have already arranged these things!" ”
Ye Yichen nodded, he was more and more convinced of his little wife's housekeeping skills.
"But Wen'er ......"
Yulan was slightly taken aback: "Is Brother Wen going too?" ”
Ye Yichen's face became a little unsightly, and said, "Last year, the emperor mentioned it to me, saying that he wanted to meet this kid, so I pushed it on the grounds that the child was unwell." This year, the emperor has brought up the old words again! ”
Yulan was taken aback, and only felt cold all over his body: "Could it be that the emperor wants to be unfavorable to Brother Wen?" ”
"Poof!" Ye Yichen was amused by her. "What's going on in your head! The emperor doesn't have many sons, and he doesn't have any grandchildren, he just wants to meet Brother Wen and sell me a good son! ”
Only then did Yulan realize that he had overdone it. The emperor met Ye Yichen's son in front of the emperor to show his concern for his little nephew, which is also a kind of grace and glory.
Yulan said: "Then why don't you ask Brother Wen to go?" ”
"After all, he's only five years old, I'm afraid of ......"
Yulan has been a stepmother for a few days, and she also understands Ye Yichen's thoughts a little. He is very fierce to Brother Wen on the surface, but in fact, he thinks more seriously than anyone else about this only son, he is afraid that Ye Minwen has entered the palace and is not familiar with life, and he can't always follow Ye Minwen, and if something happens, he will regret it.
Now that he has a son, and all his eggs are in such a basket, can he not be careful?
Yulan thought about it and objected: "If you want me to say, let's go!" ”
"Oh?" Ye Yichen looked at her strangely.
Yulan explained: "Brother Wen...... It's too delicate! "It's easy to understand if you think about it, to raise Ye Minwen with a servant girl of the Qi family, it is really like an ancestor to offer, and it is a big deal to knock a little bit and touch a little. Yulan said: "I was thinking that in the future, Brother Wen will inherit the palace from the top of the family." The boy should be free-range, let him contact more people, and consciously exercise him a little more. Although it is a little hard to enter the palace, it is also a good opportunity! Just like a flower can't be kept in a greenhouse forever, once it is moved outside, it will no longer be able to adapt to it. "Ye Minwen is not a delicate little flower in a greenhouse now!
Yulan said: "I will arrange more people to follow him, there will be no accident." There are some children in the clan who are about his age, and it's good to be able to play together! Otherwise, this child will be a subordinate and a parent when he opens his eyes, and the spiritual world is too unhealthy! ”
Ye Yichen pondered for a long time and finally said, "That's it!" "The author has something to say: there is another chapter in the evening!
