130. Cold
"Is this man sick?" Xu Xun fainted when he heard the news. "What is she trying to do? Are you afraid that I won't be angry? ”
At this time, I came to ask Xu Xun for peace, Zhao Zhaorong was simply going against the sky. Even Liu Zhien was speechless, "Zhao Guiren is afraid that he will see the first layer, but he will not see the second layer." ”
The queen is no longer good, everyone can see this. Even if I didn't hear the report of Imperial Physician Liu and the emperor, it is an indisputable fact that he suffered heavy bleeding and near-lived death. I don't know that Imperial Doctor Liu alone knows that it is difficult for a pregnant woman with heavy bleeding to have children again, even if she really survives and recovers, the possibility of giving birth to a concubine is greatly reduced. There is hope to rise in the palace now, it must be pregnant Concubine Xu Zhuang, and if you want Concubine Xu Zhuang to ring the bell before she shines, it can't be said that it is anything wrong.
But that doesn't mean that you will come as soon as you hear the news!
Did Zhao Zhaorong want to kill her? What does this mean, there was almost a death in the Kunning Palace the first day, and Zhao Zhaorong came to the door the next day to congratulate him. Does this mean that Xu Xun is particularly looking forward to the queen's accident?
If you want to come, at least in two days, can you find a decent reason to come? Isn't this the same as throwing on Xu Xun's face?
Xu Xun was really so angry with Zhao Zhaorong that she lost her temper, and she said something heavy for the first time, "It would be nice to beat this slut out!" ”
But the problem is that she can't.
Because Zhao Zhaorong nominally came to greet her, and if he really beat her out, if there is a patient, she will become Concubine Xu Zhuang. What Xu Xun can do is to hang her out, explaining that he is in a very low mood because of the queen's affairs, and he has no intention of seeing guests-he has to politely say that he can't put on any prestige. Zhao Zhaorong is not under her control now, if she educates Zhao Zhaorong on her behalf, then Sun Guifei's lessons from the past are there-if Sun Guifei didn't want to educate these little concubines who don't belong to her, there would not be such a big dispute between the concubines.
After entering the palace, Xu Xun deeply felt for the first time that it was difficult to get along with the 'sisters'. If she could, she really wanted to find someone to beat Zhao Zhaorong and slap him more than 20 times.
It's so hard to endure this breath!
Although he has almost never done such a thing as bullying people, if he has the opportunity, it is difficult for Xu Xun to say whether he will step on Zhao Zhaorong, this person is hated because she didn't mean it, she was just stupid. She didn't realize how embarrassing her actions would push Yong'an Palace into at all.
Well, although the entire court will realize this sooner or later, but at least there is a 'sooner or later', isn't it? Now that Zhao Zhaorong is like this, it is not equivalent to beating gongs and drums to tell everyone that if she Xu Zhuang's baby is born well, maybe she will be able to become the biological mother of the prince, an indispensable and important person in the harem?
Xu Xun already had pressure on him, but now this pressure is suddenly increasing. At this moment, she can be regarded as experiencing Sun Guifei's mood: even if she has no intention of shaking the status and authority of the queen at all, but the times have changed to this point, and many things are simply out of her control......
As if to verify her worries, Zhao Zhaorong came to the door, and all the rest of the concubines couldn't sit still, and in the past two days, after going to Kunning Palace to ask for peace, one after another, they all found some decent reasons to come to Yong'an Palace to say hello to Xu Xun - although Xu Xun must not have been seen, and they could only salute the empty seats, but the eight people still came once in a few days......
This is equivalent to saying that the queen's face has been slapped eight times in a few days.
Then Xu Xun couldn't do anything yet.
It was impossible for her to go over and explain in person, first, now that she was pregnant, she couldn't act easily, and second, wouldn't her going to Kunning Palace be equivalent to sprinkling salt on the queen's wounds? In the final analysis, no matter what the current Yong'an Palace does, it is estimated that it will be understood as showing off by the Kunning Palace, so Xu Xun can't do anything, so he can only be silent until the child is born.
She is not wronged, she is not wronged, Xu Xun is angry with Zhao Zhaorong - the angry person is Zhao Zhaorong, and the family still comes to the door with the eyes of pleasing her. This kind of ridiculous feeling, if Xu Xun is not the party, maybe he will be amused.
"It's really cold." She can only vent to the emperor who will come to visit her now. "Sister Hu is still on the hospital bed, and they all come over one by one, and everyone else is gone, it is Zhao Zhaorong who is the bad leader. is so snobbish, how can she be a concubine of the country! ”
But the emperor was not careless about this kind of thing, and his concern was Xu Xun's mood. "These little things, how can you be emotional? You are now a double body, you have to think about the child in your belly, and restrain your temperament more. ”
It's not that the emperor doesn't understand, but compared with Zhao Zhaorong's ugliness and stupidity, people must think that Xu Xun may have an heir in his belly. These are all thirty years old and have no children, and the eldest son of the seven-month-old son is gone with the queen's hope of giving birth, which is also a big blow to the emperor. He must have pinned all his hopes on Xu Xun's stomach now, if Xu Xunsheng was a boy, Zhao Zhaorong and the others might praise him even if he showed him - this kind of posture would also be of great help to Xu Xun to establish authority.
Now she is receiving attention and care, and she has naturally improved a while ago. The position of Imperial Physician Zhou was completely replaced by Imperial Physician Liu, and the emperor and the Empress Dowager called Imperial Physician Liu several times to inquire, and Xu Xun didn't know what it was, so they felt as if they were very worried that the queen's miscarriage would infect her. Imperial Physician Liu took her pulse very carefully - Liu Zhien seemed to know some inside information, but he refused to tell her.
Then, her food, medicine, and even daily life are now monitored by the Queen Mother's Nan Medical Wife, and there is no possibility of error at all. Qingning Palace also sent someone to inquire about Xu Xun's situation the next day, which would not have been treated before. And then this kind of excellence, but it also enhanced her nervousness, Xu Xun couldn't say that she was nervous, but she was really anxious, she hadn't been in a good mood these days, even Liu Zhien couldn't soothe her emotions, and the emperor could only add fuel to the fire.
"Niangniang, Qingning Palace has given Korean ginseng." Here, Hong'er came to report again, "There is also a request for a smooth birth charm from Huguo Temple." ”
Xu Xun held his forehead and □ silently, before he smiled and said to Nanyi, "The Queen Mother is so loving, it's really flattering......
As soon as the words fell, Lan'er also lifted the curtain and entered the back room. "Niangniang, Xianyang Palace also sent someone to ask Niangniang how she ......."
He is fortunate to invite grace, the palace car passes frequently, although Xu Xun tries his best to keep a low profile, but Yong'an Palace has been very lively these days.

In comparison, Kunning Palace is much more deserted. The queen has not recovered from a serious illness and needs to recuperate. The palace people and lieutenants went in and out, all of them tried their best to lighten their pace, even if a room full of people, the inside and outside of Kunning Palace were as silent as a ghost town, and even the sound of breathing had to be paid attention to in order to hear and see such a star.
Excessive blood loss made the queen's face as pale as rice paper all the time, she slept most of the time, Imperial Doctor Liu took the pulse twice a day, and changed the prescription at any time to fine-tune the amount, so that after nearly ten days, the queen's condition finally stabilized. -- Many women who have lost blood and miscarriage have just gone like this, and even if they are temporarily saved, they may die with another bleeding, especially the ghost fetus suffered by the queen, which is famous for its bleeding. Imperial Physician Liu was also cautious, not daring to slack off in the slightest, the ginseng in the Ten Great Tonic Soup was all opened in increased amount, and I don't know how many high-grade old ginseng were used, which was the queen's life. If this is not a heavenly family, it is difficult to say what will happen in the future.
"The pulse is completely stable." Imperial Physician Liu put down the queen's vein and whispered with satisfaction, "How has Niangniang been sleeping lately?" ”
"I can sleep seven or eight hours a day." The palace maid whispered, "When I woke up, I was also a little confused, and I closed my eyes most of the time. ”
That's because Imperial Physician Liu's prescription also has ingredients to calm the nerves and help sleep, and he nodded. "Although sleeping for a long time nourishes qi and blood, sleeping too much is also a little detrimental to the sanity. From today onwards, the soothing soup will no longer be opened, and the mother will slowly take supplements, and within a year and a half, she will be able to recover unharmed. ”
When the imperial doctor speaks, it is not a special occasion, it is all particularly tactful and subtle. The soothing soup is no longer prescribed, which means that the queen has generally recovered to the point where she is allowed to think. In other words, the people around him can tell the queen the truth of the matter with a little peace of mind, without worrying that she will be stimulated to cause heavy bleeding again and die.
Although there are still risks in this way, as long as the queen is sober, some questions will definitely be asked, which subordinate dares to hide it? Qingning Palace and Qianqing Palace did not explain this matter, and if the queen asked, the people below must answer truthfully, and there is no second choice in this matter.
After Mama Ouyang went, the queen was trusted to be a major palace maid who was lotus lotus. After the queen really came to her senses, it was natural that she should also be named to serve by her side.
"How long have I been asleep?" The voice is naturally very weak.
"Niangniang has been resting for ten days." Holding back tears, she bit her lip and tried to answer calmly. "Now I have recovered a lot, as long as I meditate and recuperate, I should be able to recover."
The queen didn't pay attention to it at all, and continued to ask directly, "The child is gone, right?" ”
The tone was all very affirmative—although she had passed out by then, and had not really regained her senses in the past ten days, there must have been some vague impressions left, and in retrospect, it should not have been difficult to draw a vague conclusion.
"Brother's unfortunate ......" Lotus couldn't help but start crying: in this matter, her grief was not even much less than that of the emperor.
The queen was silent for a moment, and then asked, "Can you still give birth in the future?" ”
The lotus lotus's crying voice was already a good answer--there was no need to ask her how she knew, although the queen mother and the emperor had retired from serving people at that time, but after all, it was in the Kunning Palace, and naturally someone would try to eavesdrop.
The queen fell silent for a long time.
Lotus cried for a while, and finally regained her self-control, she covered her mouth and wiped her tears, and looked at the queen carefully, wanting to observe the master's expression and speculate on her mood......
But when he saw the queen's face, he was so frightened that he turned his gaze away.
The face is still the same face, and the queen is not disfigured in the miscarriage. But that look......
Lotus is not a very literate person, she has no words to describe the expression on the queen's face, she just doesn't dare to look at it - after serving the queen for so long, there is still some affection between the two after all, and she really can't bear to look at it.
The room fell silent, silent like a black hole, devouring everyone's breath with impunity. The breath left the nasal cavity, and it seemed to be swallowed aggressively into the stomach.
It was a long, long time before the queen's low voice rang out in the room. "Concubine Zhuang, what's going on now?"
Lotus Lotus cheered up and counted all the people who had been to Yong'an Palace in the past few days. When to go, how to go, and how long she stayed, she remembered it better than Xu Xun. Zhao Zhaorong passed the next morning. At that time, Imperial Physician Liu had only left Yong'an Palace for less than half an hour - Imperial Physician Liu had saved Niangniang Imperial Physician Order on the same day......"
Babbled about the time of the incense, the queen seemed to be tired of listening, and half-closed her eyes, but she didn't say it, and the lotus didn't dare to stop, but just concisely stated the ins and outs of the whole thing. “…… Yong'an Palace is the same as Xianyang Palace and Changning Palace, and you will come over on time to say goodbye, and there is nothing else to say. ”
Then there was silence again.
"Go to ......" After a period of rest, the queen's voice was a little louder and clearer. Go to Yong'an Palace and ask Concubine Zhuang for good. Pass my word, let her take care of her health, and be sure to give birth safely. ”
The corners of her lips seemed to curl a little. "Just say, I'll wait for her to come to Kunning Palace to see me with the big fat boy in her arms."
Lotus Lotus breathed a sigh of relief and was busy singing, "Niangniang Shengming is virtuous!" ”
After waiting for a while, he didn't wait for the queen to reply, and he had the courage to take a look, but he saw that the queen had closed her eyes peacefully, as if she had slept again.
Of course, this sentence is very comforting, very encouraging, generous, and very virtuous, and it was also passed to Yong'an Palace within a time, showing the queen's attitude to Xu Xun. - This sentence somewhat calmed Xu Xun's emotions, so that she could wait for the moment when her melons would ripen.
"Whatever others think, I believe it." She said to Yoo Ji-eun, "I'm really ready to take this seriously." ”
She showed up to be pregnant, Liu Zhien had to follow her words no matter what she thought, and he also said, "The queen has always been virtuous, and at this time, there is no need to tell lies." You just have to rest assured, she definitely didn't blame Zhao Zhaorong for stupidity. ”
Seeing Xu Xun close his eyes steadily, he slowly withdrew from the room and sighed deeply under the porch.
After a while, Mama Qian, who had been serving Xu Xun, also paced out - the mother was asleep, and the people below could avoid it a little, standing on the edge of the flower pot under the porch, loosening her legs and resting.
"How's that going to be passed on in private?" Mama Qian really didn't know, she had been waiting by Xu Xun's side for a while, and she hadn't returned to the room for a long time.
Liu Zhien smiled bitterly and shook his head, "There are all kinds of sayings, and some people say that the queen mother is the curse of our mother......"
The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, now in this situation, where is Xu Xun or the queen's will to change? No matter what the queen says and does, she will be interpreted by people with a heart to come up with countless ideas, and this kind of helplessness is not only found in Yong'an Palace.
Mama Qian thought about it, and couldn't help but sigh, "Master Liu, what do you think, what does the queen's words mean?" ”
Kunning Palace's statement is indeed a bit abrupt and bizarre, at this time, what the queen should do, what she can do is to recuperate with peace of mind, just take care of her body, what else can you think about? Even if she shows infinite virtue and generosity to Xu Xun now, she can't change her impression of the emperor.
No pets, no children, and it's hard to have children...... Did she still think that by saying such a sentence, she could shake the authority of the Empress Yuan again? Or did she think that with such a sentence, she could win Xu Xun over and be willing to continue to be her pawn?
Although she is not familiar with the queen, Yoo Ji-eun doesn't think she will be so naïve. He shook his head, but didn't think any further.
"It doesn't matter what the queen means now." He said, looking at the door not far away. "We'll know how the real situation will develop in two months."
And in the past two months, neither the emperor nor the queen mother will allow a little change in the court - I believe that the people below can still feel this little bit of the master's heart.
Whether it is Xianyang Palace, Changning Palace, or Kunning Palace, Xu Xun was extremely silent in the last two months of pregnancy, everything went according to plan, and Yong'an Palace has become a real paradise, and gossip outside can't reach Xu Xun at all. All she had to do was eat, drink, and raise herself like a pig. Everything was left to her loyal subordinates.
Finally, one afternoon at the end of the first lunar month, Concubine Zhuang felt a bout of abdominal pain while taking a walk—this abdominal pain developed into a regular pain.
Due to the number of times she has been favored and her menstruation is irregular, Xu Xun's conception date cannot be speculated, maybe it is the beginning of September, maybe it is the end of eight months, anyway, no matter what time period it is, it is a normal time to give birth, and she started her own 'stepping on life and death' fertility process so normally.
