Because when she found out that she was pregnant, the child was already about to be three months old, so this time Yuxi was pregnant very quickly, and it didn't take long for Hua Ying's belly to start bulging slightly, and the minions around her were more careful, and the emperor's intimacy and care were even more obvious, they knew that as long as their master could give birth to a child safely this time, regardless of men and women, this reward would definitely be enough to subsidize their family for a year.

The emperor did fulfill his promise, and called several chefs from the Sichuan and Shaanxi regions to enter the palace, each of which was carefully selected by local officials to report it, just to give the harem pregnant and spicy Concubine Yun Niangniang to appetize, although Hua Ying felt a little excessive, but it felt good to be pampered, and he was indeed no spicy after being pregnant, so he left two cooks who specially cooked meals for Jingyang Palace, of course, the details of these cooks were inspected by the emperor and Hua Ying, Before each meal, there are also subordinates and doctors to check to ensure that every meal of Hua Ying is safe.

Hua Ying held her waist slightly, every time she was pregnant and pregnant, she always felt that she had some backache, but when she thought of her daughter who had left her in her belly, she felt that it was worth it even if she was bitter and tired.

"Niangniang, the sun is not too big today, the slave maid has an umbrella for you, you might as well go out for a walk." Qingxu saw that Hua Ying was either sitting or lying in the palace for a long time, and felt that she must be a little bored, so she proposed: "And last time, Imperial Doctor Jia also said that since the two imperial chefs entered the palace, Niangniang's appetite has improved, but in case the fetus is overnourished, Niangniang will suffer more at that time, so going out for a walk at this ordinary time is good for both Niangniang and the fetus." ”

"It's okay, these days in the palace are either eating or using snacks, or drinking tonics, let's see if the palace has gained weight." Hua Ying looked in the mirror, always feeling that she had been plump recently, and said with some annoyance.

Hua Ying's three pregnancies, except for the second time, were a little emaciated, the other two times were more ruddy, except for a little plump, the others were blessings that others couldn't ask for, and there were no lines on this belly because of the rapid bulge of the belly, and the grandmothers also praised her for her good skin, so she was light and immediately denied what Hua Ying said: "This pregnant woman, if the weight does not rise but falls, then it is not good, Niangniang is the best woman who has ever seen the best woman who has maintained her body after childbirth, Don't say that. ”

"You're going to praise this palace." After Hua Ying was dressed neatly, she did look more graceful and luxurious, even if she didn't wear too heavy gold and silver jewelry because she was pregnant, but this aura and face were there, and she was a perfect person wherever she went.

"The sedan chair is ready, where does the mother want to go today?" Xiaofuzi came in to report, and when he saw Hua Ying's radiant appearance, he also smiled from ear to ear: "Our mother is really good-looking, and she is the best-looking person a slave has ever seen." ”

"Xiaofuzi has become flamboyant, since he is going out for a walk, then he doesn't need to take a sedan chair, just go out for a walk with the palace, by the way, I haven't seen the Queen Mother for a few days, so let's go to Cining Palace."

"Hey, the slave still let the sedan chair follow behind, so that the mother doesn't get tired of walking, and you can also sit."

"It's still our little Fuzi who is clever." Lan Yi inserted a hairpin rewarded by the Queen Mother for Hua Ying: "This is the last time the Queen Mother rewarded the Mother, I heard that the Queen Mother rarely rewards people with hairpin rings and other things, and it is obvious that the Queen Mother likes it." ”

"You are boasting about Xiaofuzi, but you are also a clever person, if you don't say it, this palace will forget."

"That's for sure, otherwise how can you serve the mother." Lan Yu was not modest, but Wang Po sold melons and boasted about herself, which made several people laugh, she is such a little girl who can bring joy to people, and she does not complain that the emperor once took a fancy to her.

There are only a few rhododendrons in front of Cining Palace, I heard that it is the queen mother's favorite flower, so the flower room only allows people to cultivate these, Hua Ying held her stomach and entered the hall after being informed, the queen mother was still worshipping Buddha in her small ancestral hall, Hua Ying simply went directly to the ancestral hall.

"The concubine asks the Queen Mother to say goodbye, and the Queen Mother Jin An."

The Queen Mother first glanced at her belly, and when she looked at it again, she found that what Hua Ying was wearing on her head was given to her by herself, and then she got up from the cushion with a smile and said, "Why is Concubine Yun here, isn't it safe to raise a baby in Jingyang Palace these days?"

"It's not like I haven't seen the Queen Mother for a few days, I miss the Queen Mother, and I haven't walked for a few days, and I always feel that my body and bones are going to be weak." Although Hua Ying was pregnant, she still helped the Queen Mother to sit aside: "And these days are not idle, I just want to learn Buddhism, and I can discuss it with the Queen Mother in the future, isn't this coming?"

"You girl is also interested in Buddhism, and the mourning family thinks that only older people like the mourning family like the mourning family like you like it, what have you studied?" Doing what she likes is what Hua Ying is good at, and she will also use it well to please the queen mother or the emperor.

Naturally, the words have been spoken, and Hua Ying must really have a deep understanding of the Buddhist scriptures, otherwise she would not mention it easily, so as not to slap herself in the face: "The concubine's favorite recitation recently is the "Huayan Sutra", that is, the "Dafang Guang Buddha Huayan Sutra", which is after Shakyamuni Buddha attained enlightenment, under the Bodhi tree for the five bhikshu monks and Manjushri, Puxian and other great bodhisattvas preached, the scriptures record the Buddha's wish to do fruit, and show that the fruit is endless, everything has no barriers, the concubine feels that this "Huayan Sutra" The verses and their great wisdom should be recited by everyone, and they are worthy of being called the king of the scriptures along with the Lotus Sutra. ”

"The mourning family saw that you copied more of the "Diamond Sutra" before, and I didn't expect to have such attainments in other scriptures, so are there any sentences that impress you?" The Queen Mother nodded with satisfaction, even if it is a Buddhist scripture that she only understands in order to please herself, but according to what Hua Ying just said, she must have worked hard, who doesn't like serious children?

"Meng Bi Rulai has been imparted, the incarnation has no hundreds, the intelligence is vast in all directions, and all sentient beings are purified. The concubines also want to get the sea of wishes of the Bodhisattvas of Fuxian, and finally enter the Dharma realm. Hua Ying chewed through this obscure scripture, but she didn't feel very bored, after all, Buddhism is an esoteric doctrine, and Daqi also believes in Buddhism.

"Yes, it seems that your child also has a bit of fate with Buddhism, in addition to copying Buddhist scriptures and making prayer flags on weekdays, you can also come to worship the Buddha with the mourning family, and over the years, as long as you are sincere, you will definitely be able to find the blessing of the Buddhist family." Older people believe in cause and effect more, although the queen mother did not do anything hurtful when she was young, but in the harem, if you have not done anything harmful, it is unreasonable.

"The queen mother is willing to take in the concubines, and the concubines are grateful, and the concubines also hope to be able to shelter their children, accumulate virtue for them, and everything will go smoothly in the future." Hua Ying's reverence for these things does exist, and said.

Empress Dowager said kindly: "As long as you are sincere, everyone can be sheltered, but in this life, you can't do too many things that hurt nature and reason, otherwise the final retribution will still fall on your own head, karma, all things are circulating, so life is endless." ”

"What the Queen Mother said is that people are watching the sky, and even if this retribution is not on themselves, it must be on their children, so they still have to be like the Queen Mother, and be merciful."

"You, you're changing the law to please the mourners." The Queen Mother smiled and took Hua Ying's hand over: "Compassion and tolerance are good things, but they can't be the capital of others bullying you, but looking at what you do on weekdays, it doesn't seem like you can be easily bullied." ”

"That's natural, to be honest, concubines are sometimes swayed by the emotions in their hearts and do something out of the ordinary, and the queen mother just needs to watch it as a joke." Hua Ying also smiled, while pouring a bowl of hot tea for the Queen Mother herself, it should have been instructed that there were no other palace maids and eunuchs in this small Buddha Hall, only if Aunt or Aunt Zhu Li sent hot tea and withdrew, it can be seen that the Queen Mother attaches great importance to the Buddha and retreats some subordinates.

"What's this, who hasn't been young yet, including the fact that you once went to the Shangyi Bureau to seek justice for the Shun nobles, if it was the mourning family back then, you would definitely do it like you." Everyone has had a time when they are high-spirited and not afraid of the earth, and the Queen Mother is the same: "Speaking of the position of the Shun noble, I haven't moved for a long time, in the final analysis, it is because the previous child was not born, and the mourning family should also mention this matter to the emperor. ”

The Queen Mother can see that the relationship between Hua Ying and Shun Guiren will not change because of a few words, since she did not avoid Hua Ying saying these words, Hua Ying is also happy for Shun Guiren: "To be appreciated by the Queen Mother, Shun Guiren must also be very happy, but you also know that Shun Guiren is a person who likes to be free, and he doesn't care much about fame and fortune, so you don't have to put any pressure on yourself." ”

"You are really sensible, and the mourning family thinks the same way." The Queen Mother smiled when she heard this: "I heard that you like to eat spicy food now, why is this skin still so good, it really makes the mourning family jealous." ”

"The grace of the Queen Mother is not comparable to that of a person like a concubine."
