Chapter Ninety-Three: Panic
Xiang Hongxuan happily sat in front of Feng Yingying's bed, he gently held Feng Yingying's hand, and his face was full of smiles. He was going to have a child again, and he thought that this time he should be a prince, and he should have a son.
"Yingying, take care of the fetus and give birth to a healthy prince for me."
Feng Yingying's heart was hot, and her eyes gradually became rosy. She doesn't remember when it started, Xiang Hongxuan no longer calls her so intimately, at this moment Xiang Hongxuan's sentence Yingying, let her keep recalling the time when she first entered the palace, Xiang Hongxuan's tenderness for her is like water, she loves the man in front of her, it has nothing to do with the dragon robe on his body, as long as he is happy, Feng Yingying is willing to die for him, not to mention just giving birth to children for him.
"Your Majesty, the concubine must raise the fetus in Xiyan Palace well, so that the child in the womb will not be lost in the slightest."
Xiang Hongxuan nodded with satisfaction again, he turned around, waved his hand, and the attendants immediately stepped forward, presented many exquisite ornaments, Xiang Hongxuan picked up a pair of white jade pendants, handed them to Feng Yingying's eyes, and said, "Yingying, what do you think of this pair of white jade?" After I plan to give the prince a name, I will engrave the name on the white jade, and also carve a piece for our southern princess. There is a saying in Dongyu that after the child is born, if you wear a good jade to ward off evil spirits, you will be able to grow up healthy and healthy. ”
As soon as she heard this, Feng Yingying was moved, maybe Xiang Hongxuan's warmth at the moment was just for the child in her belly, but these are not important, the important thing is that Xiang Hongxuan has her and her child in her heart, she doesn't dare to ask for Xiang Hongxuan's love for the rest of her life, as long as the family can be together, she already feels very happy.
Suddenly, a tear rolled out of Feng Yingying, gently slid across her face, frowned at Hongxuan, raised her hand and wiped away the tears on Feng Yingying's face.
"Yingying, I said that I should take care of the fetus, but I can't be sad and sad, otherwise my son will be wronged in the stomach."
Feng Yingying excitedly threw herself into Xiang Hongxuan's arms, Xiang Hongxuan gently patted Feng Yingying's back with one hand, comforting her as before, Xiang Hongxuan looked at the somewhat pitiful Feng Yingying in front of him, and suddenly he felt that some time ago, it seemed that he was too strict with Feng Yingying, and said: "Yingying, don't worry, I won't let you be wronged, Mrs. Zhao doesn't know the severity, she bumped into you, I have punished her for thinking about it behind closed doors for a month, and she also knows that she is wrong, so don't mind." ”
For this punishment, Feng Yuying was 10,000 dissatisfied, she almost lost her child in Zhao Xinyue's fault-finding, and Xiang Hongxuan just gave Zhao Xinyue a grounding punishment so lightly.
She remembered that she overheard the conversation between Ling Xi and Aunt Yan, after she had an accident, Zhao Xinyue went to Chuxiu Pavilion, it is estimated that Xiang Hongxuan's not heavy punishment was made by Xiao Xiangxiang, presumably Xiao Xiangxiang also said a lot of bad things to her in Xiang Hongxuan's ear. If she wasn't pregnant, would it still be Zhao Xinyue who is being punished now? Feng Yingying could only nod helplessly in Xiang Hongxuan's arms.
.....................................................................................................................
Snow was flying outside the house, and soon the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow, Xiao Xiangxiang wrapped herself in a brocade dress, although her house had been lit with double silver frost charcoal, but she was still shivering with cold, Dongyu's winter was too cold, so cold that she didn't dare to go out of the house, she remembered Nanxi's harem, even in winter, there was at most a little freezing rain, how could there have been this freezing three feet of cold? Xiao Xiangxiang frowned, she didn't like Dongyu's winter.
She lowered her head and smiled bitterly, but it was a pity that she could coax Xiang Hongxuan to give her all kinds of gifts, but she couldn't make this winter warm. She looked back at the house, and even Yingrong was not in Chuxiu Pavilion early in the morning, and she didn't know where she went? Li Mengqing said that she was serving herself a soup woman, but as soon as she went out, she didn't see her come back for a long time? Could it be that you are lost again?
After a while, Li Mengqing came to Xiao Xiangxiang's side with Tang Pozi in her hand, Xiao Xiangxiang took Tang Pozi, obviously feeling that she was no longer warm, and suddenly she saw that Li Mengqing's fingers were a little red and swollen, and when she thought that she had been gone for so long, I was afraid that she had not spilled over the hot water and was burned.
"Mengqing, what's wrong with your hand? Burned? Xiao Xiangxiang asked with concern.
Li Mengqing covered his red and swollen fingers with his sleeves and whispered, "No, the slave maid just accidentally wet the firewood in the backyard, and the water didn't boil." The slave's hand is not burned, but chilblains. ”
"Chilblains?"
"The old man in the palace said that it was not a serious illness, and it would be fine after winter, but it was just a little itchy."
Xiao Xiangxiang raised Li Mengqing's hands and took a closer look, they were red and swollen, there were cracks in some places, blood and thick water flowed out together, and it looked very painful.
"In the future, you don't want to boil water, stay warm and warm in the house, and the winter will soon pass, and your hands will be fine."
While speaking, even Yingrong also walked into the house, she patted the snow on her body, looking like she was full of thoughts, Xiao Xiangxiang glanced at Li Mengqing, Li Mengqing immediately brought a cup of warm tea to Lian Yingrong, Lian Yingrong took a sip of hot tea, her body was slightly warmer, she turned her head to look at the ice and snow outside the house, Dongyu's winter is really too cold, for them southerners, it is really a little uncomfortable.
"Aunt Lian, why did you go early in the morning, it's so cold outside, don't get caught in the cold."
Lian Yingrong lowered his head and sighed, and said with a solemn expression: "There is a big event in the palace today, can the slave not go and take a look." ”
"What's going on?"
"Today, the queen has sealed three beauties, namely Zhu Meiren, Wei Meiren and Shang Meiren, as well as six female histories, and after a while, those female histories will come to Chuxiu Pavilion to settle down."
Xiao Xiangxiang sneered, she looked disdainful, and said: "The queen mother is really generous, what are you doing when she gets nine palace concubines at once?" Do you think that if you have more people, you can be favored? ”
Lian Yingrong took another sip of hot tea and said slowly: "When the queen mother sealed these beauties and female histories in Qingfeng Garden, Your Majesty was also there, and these palace concubines were personally selected by Your Majesty, and it is estimated that Your Majesty will not summon you in the past few days." ”
As soon as she heard this, Xiao Xiangxiang was also a little restless, and even Yingrong saw her like this, and said: "A few days ago, the slave maid went to Yingyue Pavilion to give jewelry to Mrs. Zhao, Mrs. Zhao is a lot thinner, and she looks panicked. ”
"Aunt Lian, don't say that you didn't see it, Your Majesty has long had a deep opinion on Concubine Shu in her heart, and Your Majesty will look at her so differently just because she is pregnant, and Concubine Shu is not afraid."
Lian Yingrong looked at Xiao Xiangxiang and said meaningfully: "It doesn't matter whether Your Majesty favors Concubine Shu or not, as long as she gives birth to a prince, then she will be the prince's biological mother, and then it won't be a matter of who can succeed by provoking a few words." Mrs. Zhao just understood it, so she was so frightened. Xiangxiang, Concubine Shu didn't give any room that day, if she gains power, not only will Mrs. Zhao be unlucky, but you will also be struggling. ”
"Then let's fight, it's not just that she will give birth to a son, who can capture His Majesty's heart is the key." Xiao Xiangxiang said confidently.
"Some time ago, the slave maid sent gifts to everyone in the harem, and today the queen got a lot of palace concubines, plus the fact that the concubine was pregnant, I am afraid that the palace concubines who were finally enveloped before are useless, Your Majesty is greedy for freshness, it is estimated that the newcomers will occupy Your Majesty's side for a period of time, the queen is really not simple, as soon as she makes a move, she will smash our hard work, a queen plus a concubine, Xiangxiang, you can't be careless."
Hearing Lian Yingrong say this, Xiao Xiangxiang also thought about it, although she was very sure of Xiang Hongxuan, but there were so many women in the harem, it was impossible for the emperor to leave them all aside, maybe her grace would be diluted, and she was also a little unnaturally flustered, originally she wanted to put the tea bowl on a few cases around her, but if she was not careful, the tea bowl fell to the ground, and the tea was stained all over the ground.
"I have to dress up and go to the Flying Feather Palace, I can't sit still." Xiao Xiangxiang muttered to himself.
Lian Yingrong called Li Mengqing to clean up the broken tea bowls in this house, she came to Xiao Xiangxiang's side, and whispered: "Xiangxiang, you can't go to Feiyu Hall now, you have to call yourself sick?" ”
Xiao Xiangxiang was stunned, she thought for a moment, and said, "Aunt Lian, you said that you want me to pretend to be sick?" ”
Suddenly, there were many palace people in Chuxiu Pavilion one after another, and they were busy, sending the luggage of their own female history to Chuxiu Pavilion. Soon, rows of footprints were left on the thick snow, and the heavy snow outside continued to fall, but because of the heads of people moving in the Chuxiu Pavilion, it seemed that the white snow had also become black and hot.
After being busy for a while, a relatively handsome woman slowly walked into Chuxiu Pavilion, and with the support of the palace people, she went to their respective rooms, and made a fuss for a while, the heavy snow continued to fall, and the clear footprints in the snow were soon covered by new snow, and the layers of snow were slowly piled up, so smooth that it seemed that there were no footprints, and Chuxiu Pavilion returned to its previous tranquility.
Lian Yingrong exhaled a breath of hot air and whispered, "Xiangxiang, how can you be pretending to be sick?" The winter of this Dongyu is extremely cold, where have we southerners seen such ice and snow, and it is natural to be sick, you can recuperate in the Chuxiu Pavilion and avoid its edge, Your Majesty needs time to kill the spring color of this winter, Xiao Biesheng is newly married, you have to calm down, and the most important thing in front of us is to plan well, how to deal with the women of this harem. ”
Saying that, Lian Yingrong helped Xiao Xiangxiang to walk to the inner room, Xiao Xiangxiang glanced back at the rooms of other female histories, she knew that Lian Yingrong's words were right, instead of competing for favor at an inopportune time now, it was better to let Xiang Hongxuan pass this freshness, so that Xiang Hongxuan would feel that she was the best, but she was a little uncomfortable in her heart, I don't know if it was the snow in the sky that shook her headache, or the cold wind blew her headache, in short, a chill came from her heart.
