Chapter 851: Falling out of favor
Whether it is Zhuo Na Zhuo Guifei or Pei Xiaodie Pei Concubine Pei, these two people are not the candidates for Queen Rouyi in Helian Yunjue's mind.
However, these two people are now intriguing, and each of them wants to use Helian Yunjue's power to take the lead.
Helian Yunjue's wisest thing to do is naturally to find a third person, so as to balance the relationship between the two women, Zhuona and Pei Xiaodie. Thus, continue to contain them. so that they will not cause a big mess for Helian Yunjue in a short period of time.
But things turned out to be the opposite of what was expected.
On the day of Empress Dowager Chunde's birthday, Concubine Pei Xiaodie inadvertently announced the news of her pregnancy in public.
Everyone present, including Rouyi Xinjun Jitu, Empress Dowager Chunde, Zhuo Guifei Zhuo Na, and even Pei Xiaodie's backer, Helian Yunjue, were surprised when they heard about this.
Especially Zhuo Guifei Zhuo Na.
Originally, the Empress Dowager Chunde received her birthday gift and was very happy. Zhuo Na has obviously felt that the Empress Dowager Chunde's love for Zhuo Na far exceeds that of Pei Xiaodie, the well-versed concubine Pei Xiaodie.
However, subsequently, Pei Xiaodie became pregnant, and this big reversal completely attracted almost all of Zhuo Na's hard-won Empress Dowager Chunde's favor to her to Pei Xiaodie's belly.
This made all the efforts and foreshadowing that Zhuona had made before all in vain.
Zhuo Na knew that even if the Empress Dowager Chunde liked her very much, her position was not as important as the imperial heir in the belly of Concubine Pei Pei Xiaodie.
As soon as the Empress Dowager Chunde heard that Pei Xiaodie was pregnant, she couldn't help but be overjoyed, and she ignored Concubine Pei Xiaodie's love, and instantly became enthusiastic.
"Concubine Pei's birthday gift really makes the mourning family overjoyed! This kind of birthday gift is more popular than those real money! ”
The Empress Dowager Chunde said, and the palace maid set up a seat for Concubine Pei Xiaodie, and deliberately placed the seat next to her. Holding Concubine Pei Xiaodie's hand, he spoke with a smile.
"How long have you been pregnant? Why is it worth not seeing you tell the emperor and the mourning family? ”
Concubine Pei Xiaodie smiled slightly, "The concubine also suddenly felt a little unwell two days ago, and ordered the imperial doctor to take a look, and then I found out." The concubine originally thought that on the day she knew that she was pregnant, she would tell the emperor and the queen mother. But then I thought that in two days it would be the Queen Mother's 50th birthday banquet! Therefore, I delayed it for two more days, and I wanted to surprise the Queen Mother today. ”
Concubine Pei Xiaodie said cleverly, and the Empress Dowager Chunde, who was very pleased, kept praising her for her intentions.
Just now, she also praised the Empress Dowager Chunde, who offered "Blessing is like the East China Sea, Shoubi Nanshan Embroidered Picture", and in such a blink of an eye, it was like Zhuo Na Zhuo Guifei was left aside.
just talked to Pei Xiaodie, the concubine Pei who was pregnant with the imperial heir.
This made Zhuo Na feel very uncomfortable.
The mandarin mandarin who also went to the banquet saw the lost expression on the mandarin mandarin's face. hurriedly stepped forward, secretly took Ladrona's hand, comforted her with his eyes, and nodded at her.
Although everyone present didn't say anything, everyone knew very well in their hearts that Concubine Pei Xiaodie was the first to conceive the imperial heir, and Concubine Pei Xiaodie's status was noble, and she was the righteous daughter of Pei Qin, a scholar of Hanlin Academy. As long as Concubine Pei Xiaodie can give birth to the child with peace of mind, as long as she gives birth to the prince, then the future position of the queen mother must be her Pei Xiaodie.
Zhuona had to admit that no matter how hard she tried, she was still one step behind Pei.
Thinking of the position of queen that she had at her fingertips, at such a turning point, passing by herself, although Zhuo Na's heart was unwilling, but she was helpless.
Zhuo Na Zhuo Guifei can only pin her hopes on Xinjun Jitu now. I hope that the emperor will not become cold to himself because Pei Xiaodie is pregnant with the imperial heir.
However, Zhuo Na still overestimated the emperor's thoughts.
After hearing the news of Concubine Pei Xiaodie's pregnancy, the new monarch of Rouyi, Jitu, apparently looked even happier than the Empress Dowager Chunde.
even threatened to promote Pei Xiaodie to be a concubine and sit on an equal footing with Zhuo Na.
This temporary decision left Zhuona heartbroken.
No matter how much she thought about it, she didn't expect that Concubine Pei Xiaodie had just announced the good news of her pregnancy, and the new Jun Jitu was so hasty that she didn't even think about it, so she promised to promote her to a concubine.
Even when no one can guarantee that Pei Xiaodie's child will be born safely and will definitely be the prince, everyone's attitude has become very unfamiliar.
Zhuona's heart, as if she was being stared at and paying attention to Pei Xiaodie by the people around her, cut one by one.
The attention that should have belonged to her was stolen by Pei Xiaodie.
Zhuo Na was suddenly left out in the corner as if she had been beaten into the cold. Except for Yuan'er, no one seems to be able to pay attention to her anymore, let alone what kind of comfort she can bring.
Zhuo Na, who was in a lost mood, did not eat much at all at the birthday banquet of the Empress Dowager Chunde. Suddenly, feeling that she had no appetite and was not feeling well, Zhuo Na got up and asked the Empress Dowager Chunde and Xinjun to retreat.
The words that the Empress Dowager Chunde said inadvertently made Zhuo Na, who already felt very aggrieved, almost burst into tears.
"Concubine Pei is now pregnant, so she sits here dignified and eats with the mourning family. Is Concubine Zhuo's body too delicate? ”
The words of the Empress Dowager Chunde were originally just unintentional words.
However, the speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention. In addition, the Empress Dowager Chunde did suddenly snub Zhuo Na because of Concubine Pei Xiaodie's pregnancy, so the Empress Dowager Chunde's statement made Zhuo Na's face even more unbearable, and she suddenly blushed.
Even the new Jun Jitu, you think Zhuo Na is a little hypocritical, and she lost her courtesy as the emperor's daughter-in-law in front of the Empress Dowager Chunde. Jitu even felt that Zhuona was jealous of Pei Xiaodie, heard that Pei Xiaodie was pregnant, and saw that Pei Xiaodie was favored and snubbed her, so she felt unbalanced and wanted to throw off her sleeves and leave.
At the birthday banquet, the new monarch Jitu was in front of the queen mother, concubines and retainers, and it was not easy to find out directly, Zhuo Na had her inner thoughts. I had to glance at Zhuo Na, who was willful and had no eyesight.
No one came forward to relieve Zhuo Na, and everyone was looking at Zhuo Na with doubts and even disgust, which made her feel pressure.
The most ironic thing is that when the new Jun Jitu is already silent, Zhuona's rival Pei Xiaodie is the first to stand up for her.
Although Pei Xiaodie said this, it was just to deliberately highlight her own kindness, generosity and benevolence in front of the Empress Dowager Chunde and the new monarch Jitu, and she did not have any good intentions towards Zhuo Na.
"Since my sister is not feeling well, let's go back to the room early to rest. There is a younger sister here who takes care of and serves the emperor and the queen mother. Pei Xiaodie, who has a mouth as sweet as honey, can coax people far away with a fake word.
