Chapter 569: Unspeakable Joy!
Concubine Shu took Xiao Qian's hand and said softly: "Pay more attention to your body on weekdays, Xiao Wu is busy with official business on weekdays, if there is some neglect, you don't take it to heart, we are women, we always hope that our men will be productive and can do great things, don't you say?" ”
Xiao Qian nodded and said, "What Niang Niang said is what Xiao Qian remembers in her heart." ”
"The sooner you give birth to a big fat boy, it will be more lively." Concubine Shu smiled: "The second grandfather is on the side of the East China Sea, and the news I am most looking forward to now is that I am afraid that I can hold my grandson ......!" ”
When Xiao Qian heard this, her face suddenly flushed, and Han Mo was also a little embarrassed, and coughed dryly.
Concubine Shu turned her head, glared at Han Mo, and said, "What, can't this palace say this?" ”
Han Mo smiled awkwardly: "No, that ...... No, hehe......! ”
"And what's your cough on?" Concubine Shu said angrily: "Is what Bengong said wrong?" Now that I am getting married, I have to look like an adult everywhere, no longer like I was not in shape, no matter what I do, I must remember that there is a daughter-in-law in the house! ”
Han Mo smiled bitterly: "Got it!" ”
Seeing Han Mo's embarrassed appearance on the side, Ling Yan'er couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker, Han Mo glared at her fiercely, Ling Yan'er was not afraid, she just turned her head and smiled to herself.
I didn't leave the palace in the morning, and the concubine took the little couple in Changchun. There are steps in the palace, this Changchun. The palace is one of the six palaces in the east, majestic and huge, and it is brilliant everywhere, but it can also be seen that the emperor is very fond of the concubine.
Han Mo only felt that Concubine Shu's mood was indeed very good, and her pretty face showed joy from time to time, and she didn't know if it was because the two of them entered the palace to meet her.
In addition, Han Mo felt that Concubine Shu's complexion was much better than the last time they met, and her body seemed to be a lot richer.
At noon, Concubine Shu led the two into the garden pavilion to eat, where the air is fresh, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and the pavilion is located in it, elegant and leisurely.
The wine and food in the palace are naturally unusual, after all, she is a favored concubine, and the food on Concubine Shu's side is also presented from the imperial dining room, but Concubine Shu developed a thrifty temperament when she was in the East China Sea, so there are not many dishes, but everything is exquisite, and it is more due to the environment, which makes Han Mo have a great appetite.
At this time, there were only Concubine Shu and Han Mo on the table, and next to them were Ling Yan'er serving, so Han Mo had no scruples, eating vegetables and drinking a lot, and he didn't say anything.
Xiao Qian has always eaten very gently, taking small bites, while Concubine Shu just smiled and looked at the two quietly.
"Sister...... Hmm, mother, why don't you eat? Han Mo raised his head and saw that Concubine Shu didn't move her chopsticks, so he couldn't help asking.
Concubine Shu shook her head and smiled: "I haven't eaten much recently...... You don't have to worry about me! After she said this, her expression suddenly changed, she covered her mouth, frowned, and bent her body.
Ling Yan'er hurriedly stepped forward and helped Concubine Shu to stand up, Concubine Shu put one hand on Ling Yan'er's body, quickly walked out of the pavilion, bent over, and retched.
Han Mo and Xiao Qian stood up at the same time, Xiao Qian was about to step forward, but Han Mo took her hand and shook her head gently.
Looking at Concubine Shu's back, Han Mo seemed to understand something in his heart, his expression became serious, his eyes were like electricity, he looked around, and found that there were no other palace maids and eunuchs in the garden, and his expression eased down.
Xiao Qian saw Han Mo's serious expression, and couldn't help but hold Han Mo's hand.
Han Mo smiled softly, patted the back of Xiao Qian's hand gently, and said softly, "It's okay......!" He walked forward slowly and walked to Concubine Shu's side, only to see that Concubine Shu had already straightened up, holding a brocade handkerchief and gently wiping her lips.
Ling Yan'er glanced at Han Mo, her expression was a little strange, Han Mo waved her hand, and said, "Ling Yan'er, you go to serve the young lady, I'll ...... Take a walk with my sister! ”
Ling Yan'er seemed to understand something, nodded, and retreated.
Han Mo held Concubine Shu's arm, Concubine Shu glanced at Han Mo, sighed faintly, and the two sisters and brothers walked slowly along the bluestone path to the depths of the garden.
Birds singing and flowers, pink butterflies flying among the flowers, the sun is shining, sprinkled in all corners of the garden, and the fragrance of flowers in the yard is blowing in the face.
The two siblings did not speak for a while, and walked to the shade of the garden, where a bamboo bench was under a few green bamboos, blocking the sun and being extremely cool.
Han Mo helped Concubine Shu to sit down on the long board, and then stood respectfully aside.
"Sit down!" Concubine Shu stared at the golden silk tree not far away, and her voice was soft.
Han Mo hesitated for a moment, and finally sat down beside Concubine Shu, stared at Concubine Shu, and asked softly, "Sister...... Does the Holy One know? ”
Concubine Shu shook her head slightly: "I didn't tell him, and...... Now is not the time! ”
"And who else knows?"
"Only Ling Yan'er!" Concubine Shu sighed lightly: "How did you see it? ”
"Sister, it's not like you don't know, when I was in the East China Sea, I read a lot of books, and I also dabbled in many medical books, such a thing...... You can see it! Han Mo smiled bitterly: "Then are you going to keep it a secret like this?" ”
Concubine Shu was silent, and after a long time, she stared at Han Mo and said, "Little Wu, this matter ...... You must not mention it to anyone, that is...... Third uncle, don't say it for the time being! ”
"I understand." Han Mo nodded: "But that's the case...... Isn't it bitter to yourself? ”
"Bitter?" Concubine Shu's face was filled with a happy smile: "I wake up every day now, and my heart is very happy, how can I be bitter?" ”
Han Mo pondered for a moment before asking, "Are you going to ...... How long? ”
"Hide it for as long as you can!" Concubine Shu said lightly: "One more day of concealment, one more day of safety." ”
Han Mo stood up suddenly, and sneered: "I don't believe it, that woman dares to attack you, if she dares to hurt you a single hair, I will definitely not let her live!" ”
A bamboo leaf fell gently from the bamboo, and gently fell from Concubine Shu's eyes, Concubine Shu stretched out her jade hand, gently caught it, and said softly: "Xiao Wu, you haven't been in the palace, you don't know the insidiousness of the palace." This is the most luxurious place in the world, this is the most luxurious place in the world, and the people in the palace are all rich and noble...... But who knows what kind of ugly thoughts are wrapped under the brocade? In the midst of singing and dancing, how many shameless and sinister things are happening? Speaking of this, her face showed a look of self-deprecation: "How can I not be one of them!" ”
Han Mo looked at Concubine Shu and did not speak.
……
Concubine Shu pondered for a moment, and finally said: "Since the Holy Lord ascended the throne, although there are no three thousand harems, ...... The daughters of our families have entered the palace, and there are more than a dozen concubines with proper names! ”
Han Mo knew this.
Not to mention anything else, just say that each of the nine great families at the beginning had a daughter sent to the palace and occupied a place in the palace.
The harem of the Yan Kingdom is also hierarchical.
Now there is no queen in the harem, the concubine is the first, and there are five concubines under it, Li, Hui, De, Shu, and Xian, who are the six concubines and the master of the East Sixth Palace.
Today, the saint does not have much interest in women, so there are very few harems, but the six concubines and nine concubines are indispensable.
However, with the fall of Ye Wu and other families, a group of female dependents naturally fell in the harem, and among the six concubines, only Xiao Guifei, Concubine Su Li, Concubine Fan De and Concubine Han Shu remained, as for the daughter of the Hu family, she was only ranked as the ninth concubine Zhaoyi at the beginning, and she was not even named a concubine.
Behind each concubine, there is naturally a group of palace maids and eunuchs, each with a group of forces.
"There are many harems, but since the death of the queen, there has been no ...... of dragon children born in the saint!" Concubine Shu stared at Han Mo and said softly, "Do you know the reason?" ”
Han Mo shook his head, this was a secret in the palace, and he naturally didn't know it.
"First, the Holy Dynasty is busy with politics and rarely stays in the harem, and there are very few harem concubines who can be favored." Concubine Shu said slowly: "The second is that there are harem maids who have received the grace of the saint and are pregnant with the dragon seed, but they are ...... Can't give birth to it! ”
Han Mo frowned, he knew that these words were taboo words, if it weren't for the two sisters and brothers alone, Concubine Shu would never have been able to say a word.
"It's all ...... The woman? Han Mo's voice was a little cold.
Concubine Shu sighed faintly and said with a wry smile: "Of course, there will be no evidence to prove which person did it." It's just that she may not be the only one who has this thought...... Anyone who harbors a dragon species is the target of the harem, and anyone can attack it...... The women in the palace, even if they are not smart, but the minions behind them will have some despicable means to come up with...... In the face of countless intrigues and intrigues, who can give birth to their children safely! ”
When Han Mo heard this, he only felt a chill in his back.
He had heard for a long time that the harem dispute was cruel and insidious, no less than the court dispute, and even more ferocious than the court dispute, once a woman became vicious, it was incomparable to a man.
Concubine Shu is in the harem, which can be said to be the largest conspiracy place in the world, and she is frightened every step.
"When I entered the palace, my grandfather told me that there were no good people in the palace, and I should always be on guard, but I was young and ignorant at that time, and I didn't understand the meaning." Concubine Shu's expression was indifferent, "It wasn't until after entering the palace that I understood the meaning of my grandfather's words...... Everyone wants you to die, and in order to live, you also want everyone to die...... In the two years since I entered the palace, if it weren't for the protection of the Holy Heaven, I am afraid that I would have become a pile of dry bones in the dust today......! ”
These are the words that Concubine Shu has held in her heart for many years, she has been holding back, and she has nowhere to confide, but today she can't help but tell her brother about the hardships in the palace.
Han Mo walked up to Concubine Shu, half-knelt in front of her, holding one of her hands, and the two sisters and brothers looked at each other silently, speechless.
