Chapter 101: Wise Bird Reports Good News
Ansu wasn't too surprised by this answer, she had vaguely guessed it earlier. It is confirmed that Mrs. Luoyan is involved, and it is clear that the enemy will always be able to take precautions in the future, but Mrs. Luoyan has always been low-key on the surface, and there is no need to be urgent.
It's only been two months, but An Su has to brace himself to deal with all the enemies, not even only An Su, the entire Huanning Hall is starting to get nervous.
This change came from that morning, late in winter, Xu Meiren thought that the weather was cold, so she sent most of the palace people to rest a little more in the morning, leaving only a few people to wait. That day was an excellent winter day, and magpies circled in flocks over the Huanning Palace, attracting many palace people to come out to watch without fear of the cold.
Xu Meiren heard the chattering voices outside, and couldn't sit still in the house, so she let An Su help her and ran out, which led Mo Sheng to chase after her with her outer robe.
Although the weather is cold these days, the snow has not yet fallen, and today I finally saw a white snow. Xu Meiren always looks forward to taking a look at the snow scene in this palace, on the red walls and green tiles, plus the fine white snowflakes, it must be beautiful.
Xu Meiren has been in the palace for almost a year, and she has just stepped into this Huanning Hall in the last winter, and she is still subtle and shy, and she can hear how happy the palace people outside are building snowmen and having snowball fights, and she doesn't dare to go out to mix and mix. Now that he is familiar with it, he doesn't care about the disparity in the identity of the master and the slave, and as soon as he goes out, he mingles with everyone in the courtyard.
There were palace people who got up early, and they piled snowmen in the four corners of the courtyard. The snowman pile was so vivid that it was decorated with branches and stones, and Xu Meiren was very happy to see it.
"Ansu, come here." Xu Meiren was looking at the snowman, and suddenly turned around and beckoned to An Su, but she didn't know what she had found.
An Su walked over for some reason, and as soon as he took two steps, he was hit by a snowball head-on, and it turned out that Xu Mei and Mo Sheng exchanged glances. An Su smiled, also grabbed a handful of snow on the ground, kneaded it into a large snow ball in three or two, turned around and threw it at Mo Shang.
With them starting with this, the other palace people couldn't stay idle and started this chaotic battle one after another. Chu Ruo was originally hiding behind the pillars next to the main hall, watching everyone in the courtyard laughing, but he was also pulled by An Su, and he also fell into the big brawl in the courtyard.
It's just that it didn't take long to play, and something was wrong with Xu Meiren. It was when she just pinched a snowball and threw it at Mo Shang, the snowball just threw out, but Xu Meiren didn't stand firm and fell to the ground all of a sudden. The ground was full of soft snow, and this fall was nothing, just Xu Meiren held her forehead, looking uncomfortable.
An Su hurriedly ran to her side: "Niangniang, what's wrong?" β
"Bengong is so dizzy, his chest is stuffy, and he is nauseous." Xu Meiren's voice was a little softer.
The palace people in the courtyard were all panicked, and they no longer made trouble, and they were all under the arrangement of Mo Shang, inviting the imperial doctor, inviting the imperial doctor, and inviting the emperor, please the emperor. An Su and Chu Ruo helped Xu Meiren into the dormitory and let her lie down and rest for a while.
After a period of busyness, the Imperial Doctor finally hurried to the Huanning Palace. Worried about disturbing Xu Meiren, the palace people consciously stood at the door and waited, leaving only An Su and Mo Sheng to accompany them in the dormitory.
After diagnosing the pulse, the expression on the face of the imperial physician was blue and white for a while, and he sighed unconsciously, and the same was true for the two imperial doctors. An Su and Mo Sheng were shocked, and they always felt that Xu Meiren's condition was very serious, and on a cold day, a few drops of cold sweat unconsciously broke out on their foreheads.
"The emperor has arrivedβ" A report pierced through the cold wind and arrived at the dormitory, followed by Liu Ying's hurried figure.
Xu Meiren was lying on the couch, but she didn't fall asleep, and when she heard Liu Ying's voice, she propped herself up and wanted to get up and salute.
"Lie down, no need to be polite." Liu Ying stepped forward to help Xu Meiren lie down again, and then turned around and asked the imperial doctor, "What's the matter?" What happened to Heo Ji? β
"Back to the emperor, Xu Ji Niangniang...... Xu Ji Niangniang is happy. When one of the imperial doctors at the head reported it, he finally squeezed out a little smile on his face.
"Really?" Liu Ying and Xu Meiren glanced at each other, and both of them were happy. An Su and Mo Sheng were standing next to them, and naturally when they heard the news, a slight smile involuntarily appeared on their faces.
"Your Majesty, it's true, Xu Ji Niangniang is indeed happy."
"Great." The smile on Liu Ying's face couldn't be hidden.
An Su couldn't help but think, maybe Liu Ying has a little bit of love for Xu Meiren in addition to pets! In the past, Xu Meiren was frustrated that she only had his favor, but now there is love, and she should be somewhat comforted.
But the smile on Liu Ying's face didn't last long, he turned around and sank his face in a place where Xu Meiren couldn't see. It was a kind of anticipation for the future, mixed with a feeling of fear, a look that should not have appeared on the face of an emperor.
An Su understood a little, thinking that Liu Ying was in the joy of having a son, and suddenly remembered the queen mother's desire for the eldest son, and knew what Xu Meiren would face next, so she showed such a complicated expression. Originally, I only felt that the days in the palace were a kind of suffering, but being born in the emperor's family, maybe there was another unknown pain.
"Your Majesty, we have a child." Xu Meiren was still immersed in the joy of being a mother for the first time, and she didn't notice Liu Ying's strange expression, but just took his hand and said softly.
Liu Ying retracted her erratic thoughts, and held Xu Meiren's hand: "Yes, we have a child." β
"Your Majesty, can we give birth to this child?"
Xu Meiren had already known from An Su that there was a problem with the spices given by the Queen Mother, but in order to have a child, she resolutely decided to fight against all the turmoil in the harem by herself. Facing Liu Ying at this time, Xu Meiren couldn't help but show her weak side.
"Of course, I will definitely let you give birth to this child in peace." Liu Ying helped Xu Meiren tuck the quilt, "You have a good rest these days, the snow road is slippery, it's better to go out less, I will come to see you from time to time." β
Xu Meiren listened to Liu Ying's assurance, and her heart was settled, so she lay down obediently, but her hand unconsciously touched her lower abdomen. This has given birth to the blood and blood of the man she loves, and no matter what, she must protect him well and let him come to this world safely.
"Your Majesty, Xu Ji Niangniang is pregnant, do you want to report it to the Queen Mother immediately?" The imperial doctor's question swept away the joy of everyone in the dormitory.
An Su's heart sank violently, Xu Meiren bit her lip even more, and Liu Ying's face darkened. He was silent for a while before he sighed quietly: "Don't let the queen mother know about it first, and wait until the fetal image is stable after three months, and then tell the queen mother about this happy event." β
"No." When the doctors got the answer, they bowed and withdrew.
The atmosphere in the dormitory was still the same as when the imperial doctors were there, and the air was a little cold, as if it was integrated with the ice and snow world outside, and the temperature was terrifyingly low.
"Shangguan Ansu, Mo Shang, you two are Xu Ji's most trusted girls, and you usually serve well, so you have to be careful these days." Liu Ying held Xu Meiren's hand tightly, turned her head and instructed.
"No."
"Moshang stayed to serve Xu Ji, Shangguan Ansu, you come out with me." Liu Ying nodded to An Su meaningfully, and said to Xu Meiren, "I'll come to see you another day", and asked An Su to follow him outside.
"You already know all about the spices?" As soon as Liu Ying walked out of the dormitory, she asked bluntly.
An Su also replied truthfully: "The slave maid went to the palaces to deliver spices under the orders of the Queen Mother, but at that time I just felt strange and didn't fully know. Later, when he was on an errand in Huanning Palace, he was stained with some smells, and was sniffed out by a friend of the slave maid who was on an errand in the hospital, so he told the slave maid about the musk. The emperor also knows about this? β
Liu Ying nodded helplessly: "This matter is still my idea for the queen mother." β
"What?" Ansu was really shocked now. I thought that the queen mother wanted the queen to give birth to her eldest son, so she used this method to avoid the concubines of the palace from getting pregnant first, but I didn't expect this vicious idea to be from the emperor who has always been benevolent?
"Yes, the queen mother is tough, and she wants Yan'er to give birth to her eldest son, if the other concubines are pregnant, either she will order someone to forcibly give birth to a fetal pill, or she will have two lives. In recent years, most of the concubines who have entered the palace, most of the mother's family have some power in the court, and they can't be said to be too direct on the surface, so the queen mother began to do some secret poisoning methods. Liu Ying's eyes were full of sadness, "I really can't do anything, in order to save their lives, I can only make this decision, it is better to have no children than to risk having children and losing my life." β
"So the emperor called the slave and maid out, did he want the slave and maid to secretly kill Xu Ji Niangniang's child?" Ansu said her guess in disbelief.
But Liu Ying shook her head: "No, Xu Ji has a deep affection for me, and I can't treat her like this." β
Hearing this, An Sucai breathed a sigh of relief, if Liu Ying really made such a request to her, she would really be in a dilemma.
"Can the emperor allow Ji Niangniang to give birth to this child?"
"yes, I don't want to put up with it anymore." Liu Ying clenched her fists, "Under the power of the queen mother, I don't know how many children I have lost, and I really don't want Xu Ji's children to lose too." β
"Then what does the emperor want the slave to do?" An Su knew that he deliberately called himself out, and it would not be as simple as just saying what was in his heart.
"Ansu, you have always been smart, and you have always been an idea, with you by Xu Ji's side, I must always rest assured." Liu Ying looked at An Su seriously, "I want you to protect Xu Ji's fetus, and all aspects must be strictly supervised, and you must let the queen mother send someone to make some small moves." β
"It's nature. Xu Ji Niangniang is as kind to the slave maid as a mountain, even if the emperor doesn't say it, the slave and maid will do their best to protect Xu Ji Niangniang. β
