105. Purple iris flower juice

Tang Zhen didn't listen carefully to the conversation between Tong Ya and Concubine Yi at all, anyway, it had nothing to do with her, she was in a hurry when she came out in the morning, it was really embarrassing to get up so early, she was still sleepy when she was supposed to have breakfast every day, she didn't eat anything at all, she waited until she returned to the courtyard after she dispersed from Fengyang Palace.

If she has been in the palace for a longer time, she should be able to get used to getting up early to greet the queen.

So Tang Zhen was very hungry, the pastries here were very soft and sweet, she ate very attentively unconsciously, and suddenly heard her name and almost choked to death.

What's worse is that now that everyone is looking at her, Tong Ya still showed such a smile, Tang Zhen put down the pastry in her hand and smiled: "Did Niangniang call me?" โ€

Yifei took a deep breath, a little helpless.

Tong Ya covered her mouth and chuckled, and when she saw Tang Zhen looking at herself pitifully, she retracted two points and pointed to the corner of her mouth to remind her.

Tang Zhen raised her hand and touched it, touching the pastry crumbs hanging on the corner of her mouth, and her face turned red all of a sudden.

Ruyi saw that Tong Ya would not go first, everyone in this palace was afraid of Concubine Yi, there was no higher rank than Concubine Yi, Concubine Yi naturally had a way to govern them, and no one wanted to stay in Qingyu Palace.

But Tong Ya is different, she is a concubine like Concubine Yi, although she is young, but if she can pick up Concubine Yi without changing her face, she chats back and forth, which is very unusual, Concubine Yi choked her away, and naturally it is not good to talk to herself alone.

I thought Tong Ya would be interesting, but I didn't expect it to be a smiling tiger, and I had my own ideas in my heart.

No matter what kind of calculation she makes, Ruyi feels that it can end here.

She was already very uncomfortable when she came out today, and she was embarrassed to say it just now, but she actually wanted to talk to Concubine Yi, but now it seems that she doesn't need to.

Seeing that Tong Ya was pointing to the corner of Tang Zhen's mouth, Ruyi took the opportunity to say: "Before coming out today, I asked Imperial Doctor Xu to come over to diagnose the pulse, counting the time, Imperial Doctor Xu should also arrive, and the concubine will come to talk to Niangniang in two days." โ€

Concubine Yi looked at her: "What's wrong?" What's uncomfortable? โ€

Ruyi bowed his head, and glanced at Tong Ya intentionally or unintentionally: "Probably because I was restless in sleep last night, and it was so cold that I couldn't eat anything in the morning, and I always wanted to vomit, so I could only ask Imperial Doctor Xu to take a look." โ€

Concubine Yi frowned, stood up to help her, and whispered with some annoyance: "You should have said that it was so uncomfortable, I still asked them to come with me to do something, go back quickly, rest well, don't worry about me." โ€

Ruyi's palms were warm, and he smiled and said yes.

Concubine Yi didn't care about Tong Ya and Tang Zhen, first personally sent Ruyi to the door, let Mama Zhao and Xiangcui serve carefully, and then when she turned back, she stood by the screen and looked at Tong Ya, smiling more indifferently: "Does Concubine Tong want to continue to stay here?" โ€

Tong Ya raised the teacup in her hand: "Concubine Yi is warmly invited, and the concubine is respectful and may not obey." โ€

Concubine Yi's face immediately collapsed.

The little bastard of the Tong family.

Ruyi returned to Yongshou Palace, Xu Chaogang asked the Queen Mother for a safe pulse, afraid that the Queen Mother would be worried, Ruyi asked Xu Chao to diagnose the pulse in front of the Queen Mother, and by the way, he said his symptoms and conjectures.

Xu Chaoshi gave her a sigh of relief, and the sticky feeling in her stomach immediately felt better.

However, it is always a symptom but not a cure, and it will definitely be uncomfortable for a few days, and now that I am pregnant, I have to consider taking all the medicines that I can take on weekdays.

Xu Chao thought about it and proposed to eat medicinal food for a period of time, not only because of the cold stomach, but also because he was worried that the pregnancy after falling into the water would have an impact on Ruyi, and now seeing that the fetal image is stable, it is almost four months, and the medicinal diet is slowly conditioning, and it is more secure.

The Queen Mother listened beside her, frowned, and said, "The medicinal diet is not delicious." โ€

She eats a lot of old people and is very sensitive.

Ruyi chuckled, and she, who was going to take medicinal food, turned around and comforted the Queen Mother: "It's okay, the concubines are used to eating." โ€

As long as it's good for your children and good for yourself, it's not a big deal.

After watching Hui Guifei and Wen's production earlier, Ruyi knew in her heart that she and her children wanted to survive safely, and they shouldn't care about this appetite.

Seeing Ruyi firm, Xu Chao also breathed a sigh of relief, he smiled: "The Queen Mother can rest assured, some time ago, the imperial dining room was transferred to a new local cook, and Weichen is a good friend, he has studied the diet quite deeply, and is very good at making some ingenious things. โ€

When the Queen Mother heard this, she asked him curiously: "The new transfer of the imperial chef is your fellow villager?" โ€

Xu Chao bowed: "Exactly." โ€

"Your Qizhou is a good place, outstanding people, but there are a lot of talents, the fish soup that the mourning family ate yesterday heard that the new chef in the imperial dining room made it, it is very good, it turns out that it has this relationship with you." The Queen Mother laughed and praised without hesitation, "You are also very good, young and promising, and with time, you will definitely have a bright future." โ€

Xu Chao was flattered and kowtowed to thank him.

When they came out of the queen mother's house together, Xu Chao told Ruyi to close a few windows when he went to bed at night, and the two walked side by side, Ruyi said softly: "I just heard from the adults that the new imperial kitchen in the imperial dining room is an adult's friend, and the medicinal diet is completed by the adult and the imperial chef together, and the queen mother and I are very relieved, but there is one thing, I want to ask the adult to help, I don't know the adult. โ€

Xu Chao was stunned and blurted out: "It's convenient, I'm convenient." โ€

After speaking, he was shocked to realize that he had overreacted, and quickly lowered his eyes and lowered his voice: "The little master just orders, as long as he can help, Weichen will naturally take care of the little master." โ€

Half a month has passed, and summer has arrived.

Earlier, the queen and Concubine Hui discussed warming up, and the banquet held in the imperial garden was also prepared lively.

Tables and chairs are set up in the open space, and a pergola is set up, and the garden path is just a few steps away, with a great view.

The queen also specially arranged a cool position for Ruyi, and now that she is pregnant, many people are subconsciously staring at her belly.

Yuelang and Minmin study every day, and they are very uncomfortable, and today they can finally come out to let off steam, so they naturally run around with their feet spread.

The queen specially told the palace people below to look at it, the two little girls were curious about Ruyi's belly, and they were also led by the grandmothers.

Then both of them stood far away, completely believing what the queen said, the child in the belly was as fragile as a glass cup, and it was necessary to be careful.

Yuelang held Minmin, the two little girls were the same age, dressed similarly, they looked like sisters, although they were noisy on weekdays, but the relationship was getting better day by day, and the tacit understanding was also very high, looking at each other, Yuelang asked: "Is Ke Niangniang pregnant with a younger brother or a younger sister?" โ€

Concubine Ming listened beside her, and asked Yuelang with a smile: "Does the princess want to be a younger brother or a younger sister?" โ€

As soon as these words came out, the concubines naturally listened with their ears pricked up, Yuelang tilted her head and thought about it for a while, and then hesitated for a while: "Yuelang already has a younger brother, is it okay for Ke Niangniang to give birth to a younger sister?" โ€

After Yuelang finished speaking, many people laughed.

Most of them have bad intentions.

Concubine Rong has a fast mouth, but she can't speak with her brain: "Ke Chang is really a princess in this child!" โ€

After speaking, she was still laughing, but she was glanced at coldly by Concubine Yi, Concubine Rong immediately coughed lightly twice to cover it up, and looked away with a smile.

Coincidentally, it is not only Rong Concubine who has a fast mouth, as soon as he finished speaking, Hai Changzai answered with a smile: "If you want me to say, it's better not to give birth to a princess, let's Ke Chang is a lot of arrogant people, and people want to give birth to naturally add a prince to the emperor." โ€

Concubine Ming coughed lightly, and seeing that the queen's face was not good-looking, she interrupted: "Hai Changzai can't talk nonsense, Ke Changzai is not a princess or a prince, they are all royal blood, the same dignity." โ€

Hai Chang reacted at once, the queen gave birth to a princess, although she said this was to flatter Hui Guifei, belittle Ruyi, and laugh at her low background and only deserving of a daughter, but she didn't notice that she offended the queen even more by her words, and her heart was empty, and she hurriedly laughed: "Isn't this a joke the concubine, this ligui wine is sweet, and the concubine is really greedy for a cup, and it should be punished, it should be punished." โ€

The queen glanced at her lightly and didn't say anything, but when she looked at Ruyi again, her eyes softened: "What do you think Ke Chang thinks in herself?" Let's get together and make a joke, and no one should take it to heart. โ€

Ruyi took the pastries in front of her and gave them to Yuelang and Minmin to eat, and the two little girls each held two in their hands, saying that they were going to fly kites, and ran away in the blink of an eye.

"Princess Yuelang is lively and cute, and the concubines like it very much."

Hearing Ruyi say this, Hai Changzai immediately rolled his eyes and muttered, "Who doesn't know that she wants to have a son, and her mother is expensive by virtue of her son?" Now it's just about currying favor with the queen. โ€

Concubine Li sat beside Hai Chang and heard Cao Yu persuade Hai Chang in a trembling voice: "Don't say a word, everyone is out to have fun today, be careful that it really annoys the queen." โ€

Yu Guiren seemed to be quite resentful, and snorted: "You just let her say it, she is so open-mouthed all day long, offending people everywhere, we will all have to suffer with her when the time comes!" โ€

Hai Chang sighed: "If you don't want to, if you ask for your own convenience, who let you follow me?" โ€

Yu Gui laughed twice: "It's just right, you don't come to the door, let's go our own way." โ€

Cao promised to be sandwiched in the middle to persuade or not, and his voice was mixed with various voices, but it did not attract the attention of others.

Li Concubine put down her wine glass, she hadn't drunk much for so long, and when she raised her eyes to look at the other side, she found that Rong Concubine's eyes were dodging, as if she had been shooting back and forth between herself and Hai Changzai.

Li Concubine picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth expressionlessly, seemingly inadvertently looking away, as if she hadn't found anything.

Concubine Hui was holding the fourth prince in her arms, and she kept smiling on her face, but after looking at it for a long time, she felt that she was just stiffly maintaining this action, and she didn't seem to be really happy.

Soon the queen wanted to hug Chengyi, and after Concubine Hui handed over the child, she returned to her lazy appearance, and her eyes did not follow the four princes nervously, and from time to time she glanced at who was carried away, and that's it, but the queen asked Yuelang and Minmin about kite flying from time to time, and asked Chunmei to tell them, don't run away, and when it gets hot later, you must bring the children back to drink water, and the children forget everything when they play.

"Boys are fine, girls can't burn their skin." The queen sighed, since Min Min came, Yuelang has indeed been a lot more cheerful, but she has also been taken by Min Min to be a lot more childish, I really don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

Concubine Ming smiled and teased the fourth prince Chengyi in her arms, and when she heard the queen sigh, she said with a smile: "How good is that the princess can run and jump now, it shows that her body is getting better and better, and the queen can be more at ease." โ€

This is also the case, and the queen breathed a sigh of relief: "You can always comfort me." โ€

Today's banquet prepared all kinds of wine and tea, Ruyi still only holds her own milk to drink, she has not seen Hai Chang there, but every time she sweeps over, she can always find that Hai Chang is paying attention to herself.

She knew that Hai Chang was going to the knitting bureau, and she deliberately spread the news of her eating medicinal food through the imperial chef fellow chef in the Xu Dynasty.

Most of these things should be taboo, Hai Changzai should have learned about it in private, and Ruyi guessed that if Hai Changzai was going to do it, he should have fused a small amount of what she couldn't eat into the food given to her.

For others, there is no poisonous thing sent into the mouth of Ruyi, the medicine is opposed, it is poisonous, every time the dose will not be detected, if it is taken for a long time, it may cause the child to be deformed or born is stillborn, these. Ruyi has already asked Xu Chao, and it is completely achievable.

As long as Hai Chang is using a little dim sum, he is really ruthless, and he naturally knows how to use the red leaves and the fellow who works in the imperial dining room.

Ruyi has paved a long road for her, if she has no evil thoughts and is frank, she will naturally be able to walk smoothly.

But if she still has the intention of harming people, then the end of this road will make her fall into hell.

Those who have a bad mind will eventually become cocooned and bound themselves.

Ruyi glanced at the various pastries that were re-served in front of her, she picked up a piece to cover her mouth and ate it slowly, and finally left a small piece in the palm of her hand, and turned sideways to make sure that Hai Chang handed this small piece of pastry to Mama Zhao next to her when she couldn't see her small movements.

They discussed the cooperation, there were many people at the banquet, it was easy to cover up the past, and it would not be paid special attention to, Ruyi had tasted every kind of dim sum, and Mama Zhao found a gap, handed over the small piece of dim sum wrapped in a handkerchief to Qinglin, who was standing aside with his head down, and whispered: "Hurry up and send it to Imperial Doctor Xu to see, don't crush it." โ€

Qinglin is clever, naturally knows what to do, he noticed Hai Chang from under the brim of his hat, after Ruyi ate the pastry, Hai Chang obviously paid attention to go somewhere else, there was talk and laughter, Qing Lin followed the palace people walking around to move their feet, and soon moved away from the pergola, and quickly ran towards the Tai Hospital.

Ruyi also naturally spoke to Tang Zhen beside her: "This pastry tastes good, it should be a few new samples from the imperial dining room, have you tasted it?" โ€

After asking Ruyi, she covered her mouth and laughed, she didn't pay attention to it, Tang Zhen almost bottomed out a few small plates in front of her, Tang Zhen smiled embarrassedly: "I... I like to eat these, the things in the palace are so delicious. โ€

She pursed her lips and laughed, her cheeks bulging, very cute.

Ruyi thought about it and brought her pastries: "Let's eat together, I can't finish eating so much, I haven't had a good appetite recently, and Imperial Doctor Xu is taking care of me." โ€

Tang Zhen blinked, thinking that Ke Changzai was really a kind-hearted and good person, I don't know why they don't want to see each other, just because everyone doesn't want to see her, and she doesn't dare to get too close, for fear that she will not be seen, but now it's a banquet, and it should be okay to eat something and talk.

Thinking like this, Tang Zhen laughed and stared at Ruyi's belly, she was the youngest in the family, and she had never seen how the child came to be, she was a little curious and felt a little pitiful about Ruyi: "I thought that I could eat anything when I was pregnant, but it turned out that I was also going to be managed by the imperial doctor?" โ€

Ruyi bowed: "Yes, for the sake of the child, we have to control ourselves in many things." โ€

Tang Zhen licked her lips and said vaguely, "Will it be very uncomfortable?" โ€

Ruyi lowered her eyes, her eyes full of love and firmness: "There will be times of discomfort, but there will also be times of happiness and anticipation. โ€

Tang Zhen's eyes lit up, stretched out his hand and carefully touched Ruyi's stomach, and then took it back like an electric shock: "It's good, the emperor must always accompany you." โ€

After speaking, Tang Zhen held her face and sighed: "I have been in the palace for so long, I have seen the emperor once, and it is estimated that the emperor is not in a hurry for me, and when I came to Langjing Palace, I went to see Concubine Tong or Concubine Li, and I never came to the East Courtyard once." โ€

Hearing the East Courtyard, the smile on Ruyi's face froze.

Tang Zhen sighed and looked at Ruyi again, seeing that she was not smiling, she suddenly realized what she had said, and quickly covered her mouth, and only after a long time did she look at Ruyi's face and whispered: "Ke is always here, I... Am I saying the wrong thing? โ€

Tang Zhen had heard that the Wen family, who used to live in the east courtyard of Langjing Palace, was the old owner of Ruyi, and the two had a good relationship, but unfortunately the Wen family went crazy and died.

Ruyi came back to his senses, pulled the corners of his mouth, shook his head lightly, and then really lost the nature to continue talking, so he simply turned sideways and took two sips of milk, the discomfort in his stomach came up a little, and Ruyi took a few deep breaths to endure the nausea.

Tang Zhen was uneasy, Ruyi refused to speak, she didn't know what to do, she could only bite the pastry in fright, pay attention to Ruyi's state from time to time, and the things in her mouth seemed to become less sweet.

Soon Qinglin came back with the news, he leaned into Mama Zhao's ear, and said softly: "Mama, Imperial Doctor Xu and the imperial chef have repeatedly checked, there are indeed some things in the hibiscus shortbread, but the dosage is very cautious, it is the flower juice of purple kite, cold, generally used for color toning, non-toxic, but it is compatible with the medicinal diet of the little master, and if you take it for a long time, it will become a stillbirth." โ€

This hibiscus shortbread is not a new style, and there is a lot of work that can be done, I don't know whether to say that Hai Chang is shrewd or stupid, Mama Zhao bowed her head and signaled that she knew, and the cat waist said it with Ruyi.

Ruyi had a bad appetite because of the medicinal diet, and she suddenly remembered her sister just now, and she was even more disgusted, and Mama Zhao couldn't help it anymore as soon as her voice fell, and retched on to the chair, so frightened that Tang Zhen, who had been paying attention to Ruyi, jumped up excitedly.

"Ke Chang is here, are you alright?!"
