"Xuan Xiuyi is pregnant with His Majesty's child, if she gives birth to a prince, Your Majesty will be happy, and it is very likely that she will be promoted again. If she gets the position of concubine, won't my wish for a favorite concubine be disappointed? ”

"Lingxi, do you want to give birth to Your Majesty? There is still some truth in the fact that a mother is more expensive than a child, especially since Your Majesty's heirs are still very thin. ”

"I don't want to, I heard those palace maids say that when you are pregnant with a child, you can't eat this, you can't eat that, if you want to live like this for ten months, it's better to kill me. Besides, I want to be a favorite concubine, not the queen mother, and I will be angry when I listen to my mourning family every day. ”

Lingxi's rebellious words startled Nanxing, and he quickly looked around, "My ancestor, can you talk through your mind?" Can this also be said nonsense? If anyone listens, we'll both have to be clicked. ”

"Sister, don't worry, it's going to be too late, and those palace maids and eunuchs should be asleep. Besides, I wouldn't admit it to death without evidence. Who can record me? ”

"I've seen it for a few days, I have to go to Shangshan Jian to get some more, bring more walnuts for you to eat, make up for your pig brain, obviously a very clever person, why are you confused at a critical moment?"

"Sister, it's not that you don't know, they all talk yin and yang, and besides, I want to be a favorite concubine as long as Your Majesty likes it, why should I think about their thoughts."

"You, if you don't suffer a loss, I'm afraid you won't learn to be obedient, just like Shang Lu's previous temperament." Nanxing flicked the candle in the corner of the house to make the candle flame not so bright, "You go to sleep, I heard from Xiao Dezi that Your Majesty may go back to Taiye Pool tomorrow, and then we might as well go to have a chance encounter." ”

Taiye Pool, also called Penglai Pool, takes its meaning of Penglai Wonderland.

The whole Taiye Pond is divided into two parts, the West Pond is the mainstay, and a lot of precious flower varieties and rare numbers are planted, and it is the season when the chrysanthemums are in full bloom at this time. A few days ago, the craftsmen of the flower house cultivated several new varieties of chrysanthemums, presumably the saint went to see them.

Lingxi and Nanxing came to a bamboo pavilion on the west side of the Taiye Pool. The pavilion is all made of arm-thick green bamboo, which looks tall and soft, and there are many green bamboos planted around the pavilion, and there are also pointed bamboo shoots in some places.

instructed the palace maid to put the prepared snacks and tea on the table, and Lingxi waited for His Majesty to arrive while pretending to enjoy the scenery.

About a stick of incense passed, and a bright yellow canopy was seen wandering among the trees in the distance. Nanxing tugged at Lingxi's sleeve, Lingxi hurriedly swallowed the snack in his mouth, drank a few sips of tea, tidied up his clothes again, and prepared to drive.

Who knows, the bright yellow canopy stopped as he walked, and after a while he walked back again.

Lingxi stomped her feet a little angrily, she couldn't catch up if Her Majesty didn't come, as a concubine, if she chased His Majesty's honor guard, it would be too rude.

From the end of October to the end of December, before the Chinese New Year's Eve, the situation of Lingxi's sleeping in these two months was good and bad, and she was also a little unsure of His Majesty's temper.

When he used to get along with His Majesty, Lingxi felt that His Majesty was a very gentle and considerate person, if it was to be described in one word, it would be "warm man".

But His Majesty will not be lucky with her for ten days and half a month, it can be said that it is like a child's face, cloudy and uncertain.

In any case, Lingxi, who has been in the palace for almost a year, is going to spend her first Chinese New Year's Eve in the palace.

The empress wants to have a lively time, so it is recommended that all concubines go to Fengzao Palace for dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve, and the saint will also come at that time, after all, the Chinese New Year's Eve is an important day, and the saint is supposed to stay in the queen's palace.

The concubines had no objections, and those concubines who had never seen the saint for half a year or a year raised their hands in favor. Presumably, when I returned to my room, I had to start thinking about the outfit for the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, thinking about how to make the saint look at it twice.

————————————————

On Chinese New Year's Eve, a heavy snowfall covered the entire palace, and the word "silver wrapping" could not be more appropriate, and festive red lanterns were hung in the Fengzao Palace, and red plums in bottles were also dotted throughout the front hall.

After a while, the concubines came to the Fengzao Palace one after another.

The concubines sat around in threes and fives, some were helping to cut the window flowers, some were checking each other's clothes and accessories, and some were like Lingxi, picking up the delicate snacks on the table from time to time and putting them in their mouths.

The queen arranged for Xuan Xiuyi to sit down beside her, as for Empress Feng only symbolically letting her sit near the stove, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the queen paid more attention to Xuan Xiuyi's birth, and now both of them are a little pregnant.

Xuan Xiuyi was wearing a purple breast-length shirt and skirt, without any powder, and even the bun was a relatively ordinary style. In addition to a few small hairpins on it, there is only a durian and a hundred sons rewarded by the queen's mother, I don't know if it is the relationship between first-time mothers, Xuan Xiuyi's every move exudes a soft meaning.

On the other side, although Imperial Girl Feng was also wearing a breast-length shirt and skirt, the red color and the pink peony flowers on the sideburns made her look a little radiant.

Nanxing stood behind Lingxi, looking at the others, and at the same time ready to serve at any time, it is not good to be a grandmother and a palace maid.

The master sits and you stand, the master eats and you watch, and fortunately, Nanxing is from the bottom, otherwise it may be really unbearable.

Lingxi had already eliminated a plate of dim sum and was about to attack another plate, when Feng Yunu got up and moved to Lingxi's side.

"Ye Meiren, the concubine has a few words I want to tell you alone." The sound of Feng Yunu's weak mosquitoes and flies sounded in Lingxi's ears.

Lingxi glanced at Nanxing, and saw that Nanxing also looked uncertain, so he didn't say anything.

"Just a few words, it won't delay Ye Meiren's dim sum. Please also ask Ye Meiren to appreciate her face. Feng Yunu saw that Lingxi didn't answer, so she could only say it again.

Lingxi can't ignore her now, "You are delicate now, say whatever you want here." ”

Feng Yunu looked around carefully, "There are many people here, can Ye Meiren go to the outside of the palace with the concubine......

"Feng Yunu, it's freezing outside, if you have three long and two short, it won't be good. You can move to Yutang Palace tomorrow for afternoon refreshment. Nan Xing interrupted Feng Yunu's words with a loud voice.

Seeing that Lingxi didn't answer, Feng Yunu bit her lip, as if she had made some decision, "What the concubine wants to say is related to Qin Meiren." ”

Lingxi looked at Feng Imperial Maiden, then turned her head to look at Nanxing, and after getting a positive look, she spoke, "That can only be at the entrance of the hall, and you can't go far." Your Majesty may be here in a moment. ”

"Thank you, Ye Meiren." Imperial Lady Feng turned her head and got up, facing the direction of the queen, "Queen Mother, the concubine feels a little tightness in her chest, and she wants to go to the gate of the palace to breathe, hoping that the Queen Mother will allow it." ”

"It is extremely hard for a woman to have a hard time in the early stages of pregnancy, perhaps because the charcoal fire in the palace is a little hot." The queen's words didn't seem like she said to Imperial Lady Feng, but it seemed to be explained to the other concubines.

"Although the snow in the courtyard has cleared, the main palace is still a little worried. It's better to order someone to put a chair at the door, you can sit there to cool down. ”

"Thank you for your care." When Imperial Lady Feng heard the queen's words, she hurriedly bowed down and saluted, and said, "Just stand at the door of the concubine." ”

Lingxi also got up and bowed, "Queen Mother, the concubine has eaten too much, so you might as well let the concubine accompany Imperial Daughter Feng to stand at the door, so that you can consume your food." ”

The queen saw that the two of them insisted, and saw the entrance of the palace in the palace at an unobstructed glance, so she allowed it.
