The silver charcoal in the house burned even more vigorously, and Guo Yizhu's heart burned hot like this charcoal fire, she could see the situation clearly, but she was unwilling. Since she came to the princess's house, she couldn't just quit, "The princess is suffering from the enemy, and she should also think of ideas." Since ancient times, the eldest son is the most favorable competitor for the son-in-law. ”

There was a touch of coldness at the corner of Wang Jingshu's mouth, how could this Guo dare to say this kind of thing? Deng Shi was full of anger, dropped the teacup, and listened to the sound of a broken one, "Is this what you should say as a Fengyi?" This secretive imperial city, didn't teach you well? ”

As soon as the four words were spoken, the meaning of this had clearly reminded Guo that anyone who had a brain would inevitably shut up immediately. However, Guo Yizhu is not such a smart person, "but the concubine is ......"

Originally, the Zhao family's small family was jasper, and the prince was still interested in staying in the back house for the night, she had never been happy with him, and the Guo family was used to getting tired of pleasing her, but unfortunately the current prince also didn't look down on her, and there were faint traces of falling out of favor. Now that the Zhao family is pregnant and can't serve the prince, I'm afraid that he will miss Miss Chen outside the imperial city even more.

Wang Jingshu interrupted her words, and immediately issued an eviction order, "Sister Fengyi should go back, so as not to let the prince hear it, and think that you are fanning the flames here to be bad for Zhaoxun." In this way, it will not do you half of the good. ”

Guo Yizhu left angrily.

Soon, the happy event that King Ning Zhaoxun Zhao was pregnant for more than a month spread into the Ninghui Palace, and the queen was also present at the time.

"I want to mourn the family, those supplements are secondary, the important thing is that the Zhao grade should be promoted according to the rules." The queen mother pushed the plate of mille-feuille cake, asked the palace maid to replace it with lotus root powder osmanthus sugar cake, and instructed the queen, "Last night's incident has just passed, so I should be quiet for a while." It is inconvenient to ask for a decree at this time, and after a while, when the Zhao fetal statue sits firmly, the mourning family will mention to the emperor that the Zhao family will be crowned as a side concubine. ”

Side Concubine......

Queen Jiang couldn't help but be worried, for fear that the fourth child would not agree, her son had a very hard temper, and he didn't even want to pretend to be something he didn't like. Like his wife, he and his wife seem to be born into conflict. asked the Zhao family to be the side concubine, and opened his mouth, "I'm afraid that the fourth child won't agree." He thought in his heart that the Chen family outside the imperial city was the side concubine, and this cold Zhao family was named a side concubine, and the concubine was afraid that not only he was unwilling, but even the princess was unwilling. ”

The Queen Mother's face sank suddenly, is it because the Zhao family is behind herself, so she doesn't want to be promoted? Is this not to give the Cheng family face? But she can't say these explicitly, "The former Wai family has seen the side concubine given by the emperor to the prince, and it seems that she is in good health, and she should be able to give birth, it is said that the prince has been lingering in several side concubines and princesses' rooms recently, and the happy event in the East Palace is really close." ”

The queen lowered her head, "I haven't been able to give birth for so many years... How could it be that all of a sudden... Again... The prince has always been diligent, how can he linger in the back house......"

"Ridiculous!" The Queen Mother said coldly and didn't give her a little face, "Why don't you want to think about it, there is nothing in the East Palace to endanger the status, and the prince is not allowed to go to the back house frequently." There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great. You think he is the fourth, there are three women in the back house who are not willing to touch it, and it is also the good luck of the Zhao family to get pregnant so quickly, otherwise the mourning family is afraid that King Ning will have no heirs. ”

King Ning did not enter the back house very much, and the queen heard about it, so she gritted her teeth and responded, "Or, he accepted the matter of the side concubine and agreed." Think about how big a side concubine can stir up waves, not to mention the Chen family, who has no official position in the imperial court. Besides, there are indeed not many women in his back house. Heirs matter. ”

"The emperor asked you to make up your mind before, but you refused to accept the fold, and now you will go to the emperor again? How can there be such a thing as you, undecided! Just as the palace maid took the lotus root powder osmanthus sugar cake, the queen mother twisted a piece, the softness and sweetness of the entrance made her feel much better, and then mentioned: "The mourning family heard that there was Chen among the bridesmaids who toasted yesterday?" ”

"It should be. It seems that Princess Kang has been beaten well, and she has to add a few more glasses of wine to the fourth daughter-in-law. The queen also got a plate of dim sum to eat, she liked crab roe crisp more, and added, "At that time, there were too many people, and the concubines didn't pay attention." ”

"In this case, the mourning family mentioned to the emperor that he should be allowed to be a side concubine, so as not to worry about the fourth child in his heart and have no intention of extending the heir. Once a woman enters the door, the feeling changes. The Queen Mother bowed her head and twisted the jade Buddha beads in her hand, she was devoted to the Buddha, but she had to bear the burden of the future of the Cheng family, who called the emperor not her own child, she still wanted to plot something at such an age, "Sometimes men can't get it, so they will think about it." If you get it, you may not be able to take care of it. ”

A royal man is destined not to be in love with only one person in his life.

"Yes." The queen chimed in. I wanted to talk to the Queen Mother about the side concubine, but I heard the Queen Mother say: "There should be two princely side concubines, and if there are meritorious people in the concubine room, there can also be three." Now that the Chen family has set the position of side concubine, it is a pity that the Chen family has no available people, only that she is a childbearing person. And Zhaoxun conceived a son should be meritorious, and he should be able to set up another one in the future, if he adds another side concubine, it is necessary to have a thick and noble family. ”

"The fourth child worked hard in the previous dynasty, and the women in the back house must be chosen safely, and they should not be jealous too much, so as not to affect his official duties in the previous dynasty. Now that King Kang is no longer a threat, the East Palace is rejoicing, don't go hard. ”

The queen said yes again and again, but she didn't expect the queen mother to think so thoughtfully, "Zhao Xun's promotion, the concubine will mention it to the fourth child, and ask the fourth child to make his own decision, this is his first child, he will not lose the Zhao family, please rest assured." ”

This is also like the queen's guarantee to the queen mother. If King Ning has a future, he will not treat the Queen Mother and the Cheng family badly.

The Queen Mother smiled, waved her big hand, and doubled the reward, and the reward was passed into Zhao Zhaoxun given by the prince like flowing water.

Soon, even Emperor Zhu Yuanming got the news, although he was pregnant with a princely concubine, he doubled the reward, only hoping to cover up the gossip in the imperial city.

Sure enough, this method worked, and people speculated.

Especially on the side of the East Palace Crown Princess Ji, she couldn't figure it out, "One of King Ning's concubines is pregnant, and my father has rewarded him greatly, and it is unknown whether she will be born in this life." ”

The henchman palace maid on the side analyzed: "The descendants of the royal family are not prosperous, and there was another incident last night, the emperor naturally thinks that this happy event can be covered up, so he gives a big reward to make the people in the imperial city divert their attention." ”

The crown princess suddenly thought of something, "You say, could it be that King Ning deliberately broke out at this time?" "Is King Mo Feining looking at the right time?

"Whether it's or not, it won't affect our East Palace. It's not us who should be in a hurry now, it's Princess Ning. ”

"Heh," the crown princess gloated, "last night I was still thinking about getting into the eyes of my father...... I'm going to slap me in the face today. This Princess Ning... That's it. Zhao Zhaoxun, who is pregnant, and Miss Chen, who is loved by King Ning, tsk tsk-"

As the crown princess expected, everyone in the palace was watching Princess Ning's jokes. Wang Jingshu, who was only laughed at, didn't care about living her own small life, in addition to her daily life, she had to take care of her diet and daily life. The prince attaches great importance to this child, and he wants everything to be appropriate.

Dead.

Wang Jingshu was picking up the lamp to settle the accounts, and instructed Qingyi, "It's getting colder and colder this day, don't be careless about the diet and daily life of the Zhao family, if she is cold if necessary, you can allow some silver carbon to go." It's just the same, don't give her food, not even the imperial food that our hospital gets. "She is afraid that something will go wrong in the meal, so she, the princess, will do it.

"Don't worry, Mama has some experience, and we won't send anything she said."

said that Cao Cao Cao would arrive, and Mama Huifen entered happily, "Master princess, the prince is rushing here." Go out and meet you. ”

Wang Jingshu took the account book, it is better to come than not to come, anyway, they are sleeping in clothes. I only asked someone to clean up the inner room and hurried out of the house to greet him.

Zhu Pei came suddenly, he didn't come to sleep for anything else, he just came to tell her that the emperor approved the excerpt to welcome the Chen family as a side concubine, and he ordered Wang Jingshu to Zhang Luo one or two.

Although Zhu Pei was difficult to talk about such a thing, he said in the end, "You are the princess, and you have to make up your mind for some things." ”

It was only five days after the last wedding, and the father agreed to let him welcome the Chen family as a side concubine? But Wang Jingshu clearly remembered that Miss Chen was reluctant to enter the palace. responded, "Congratulations to the prince, you got what you wanted-"

——Chen Qingzhi's daughter Chen gave King Ning as a side concubine and chose an auspicious day to welcome in.

The howling cold wind blew for two more days, and Wang Jingshu was invited to Chonghua Hall by Princess Wu Ningfang, which was one of the palaces where the fiefdom princes and other fiefdoms returned to Beijing to temporarily live in the imperial city, because the fiefdom princes did not build a palace in Kyoto, and the Son of Heaven would temporarily change some palaces to be moved in by the princes and their families in order to facilitate the princes.

Wu Ningfang's expression was not good, "I'm going to return to the fiefdom with King Yi tomorrow." The prince said that he would not return to Kyoto for the New Year this year. It will not be until the beginning of spring next year that the sixth brother will marry his daughter-in-law and return to Kyoto. ”

Wang Jingshu had just come from outside, and she was so cold that she poured several cups of hot tea, "In the coming year, I will also have to follow King Ning to the fiefdom, and I don't know when to leave." Originally, it was the beginning of spring, and this time Zhao was pregnant, but he was afraid of variables. However, I also ate the sixth brother's wine. ”

"Yesterday afternoon, the Imperial Doctor gave me a pulse of peace, and he said that everything is business as usual." Wu Ningfang squeezed out a few smiles, very helpless, "I want to be happy." ”

Wang Jingshu smiled and was relieved, "Maybe I just got pregnant with my nephew and niece, and I don't know if the imperial doctor can't take the pulse." He added, "Don't think too much about it, lest you hurt your spirits." ”

Wu Ningfang sighed lightly, how could she not sigh at all for such a few words of comfort. As soon as I thought of going back to the fiefdom, my heart sank to the bottom, and I had to face the prince's concubines who were warblers and swallows.

Wang Jingshu knew that she was overwhelmed by the incident of conceiving a child, and thought again, "My sister said before that she would invite us out of the imperial city to hang out, why hasn't there been any movement for several days." ”

originally thought like this, but later Wu Ningfang felt that she was pregnant with a child, so she was careful and nervous, and she couldn't wait until she was idle in Chonghua Palace. However, there is no joy in the pulse, but I am glad that this matter has not been spread, otherwise I will be laughed to death. "If something like that happens, I can't ask for a warrant from the queen mother again. Not to mention the crown princess...... I must be worried about the affairs of the East Palace, and I have no time to have fun. ”

"What's the matter with the East Palace?"
