CHAPTER XXXI

After Concubine De left. The fourth master's mood is very bad. I haven't been to the harem for a while.

I was still thinking about it. Who will be the first to lose their breath. The results were unsurprising. The first one couldn't hold his breath. It is the 'jade' Yao with a big belly.

"Master. Concubine Nian is here." Lan Yue said softly behind me.

I frowned: "She's 'stiff' with a big belly. What are you running for?" I guess it's just because the fourth master hasn't been to see her recently.

"Let her in."

Lan Yue invited Nian 'Jade' Yao to come in. I looked at her with a smile: "The young concubine is so heavy. Why did you come all the way here?"

The little maid beside Concubine Nian said arrogantly: "Why don't you say hello when you see my mother."

I sat upright: "Your master hasn't spoken yet. What qualifications do you have. Speak in this West Warm Pavilion. The Emperor gave me the right not to bow down to anyone. Even if it's your mother. It can't be broken, the rules left by the emperor are not."

Nian Yue sat down with a smile: "Don't be angry, princess. I'm not sensible."

"Minions are not sensible. It's good to save yourself from being angry. You're heavy. Be in a good mood."

Concubine Nian nodded: "It's been so long. I haven't been here to see the princess yet. Thinking about it today. It's time to come. Just come and have a look."

"It's annoying that the young concubine is worried. Lan Yue. Serve tea to the young concubine."

Lan Yue brought the tea. Concubine Nian took a sip. Whispered, "Princess. His Majesty...... Recently ......"

"The emperor is busy every day. Matters in the court. I'm sure your brother will tell you something about it. You also know. He was too busy to see you. Don't you mind."

Nian 'Yu' Yao nodded: "I really envy the princess. I can guard the emperor every day."

I shook my head and smiled: "What is there to envy. I can't sleep in the middle of the night with him every day. You have to get up with him before dawn. Such a hard life. I'm afraid that the mother has thought about it. The emperor also had to be."

"But it's good. Let's see each other every day."

"Don't say that, mother. The Queen Mother just went. The emperor felt uncomfortable. Inevitably, I snubbed you a little. After a few days. He's in a better mood. Niangniang is still the most favored concubine in this harem. Besides. Although the emperor did not bother to go up to see you. But the reward is gone. Isn't it?"

Nian 'Yu' Yao chuckled softly: "Yes. The emperor also rewarded a lot of things yesterday."

"Are the children's little clothes ready?"

"Ready. The emperor asked people to prepare a lot of the best ingredients. I made all kinds of clothes. The doctor said. Belly this. Surely he is still a son." Nian 'Yu' Yao smiled softly. But the irony in his eyes can't be hidden.

I really don't understand. How could Nian Qianyao bring out such a brainless sister. But I still had to perfunctory: "Is it. That's pretty good."

"The princess has been with the emperor for so long. Why is my stomach still not moving? Do you want to let the Imperial Doctor take a look?"

I thought I'd use this to poke me in the sore spot. I smiled softly: "Child. Forget it. One comes. I don't care too much about this. Second, what about it. I don't have a name after all. Gave birth to a baby. This kid's identity is also embarrassing, isn't it."

"Could it be that the emperor doesn't want children?"

"The emperor wants to. Then I have to be willing to give him a life."

Nian 'Yu' Yao gritted her teeth: "The princess didn't think about it. Let the emperor give you a name. The emperor is good to the princess. Let's give a concubine."

I thought about what the fourth master had just said that day. You want me to be the imperial concubine. But I rejected it. smiled and said, "Reputation. The emperor promised me the position of imperial concubine. I think it's just a bondage. So I didn't say yes."

Hear me say that. Nian 'Yu' Yao frowned. All she thinks about is being a queen. Now the emperor has not promoted her to the throne. But I first promised the position of imperial concubine. Naturally, she was dissatisfied. It's just that she has to smile with me on her face: "How can the princess touch the emperor's face like this."

"It's fine. Anyway, the emperor won't be angry with me. I want. He will give it to me. I don't want it. He won't be reluctant either. Isn't that 'good' now. When did the emperor dislike me. I'm still the Gulun princess of the Qing Dynasty. Status: Honorable. Go wherever you want. It's at ease."

Nian 'Yu' Yao bit her 'lip': "Princess. Actually I'm here today. It's something to ask for."

"Oh." I was a little expectant of what she would say: "Niangniang is extremely favored in the harem. Is there anything else you want from me?"

"yes. Princess. I've been recently. Always restless sleep. The doctor said. If only the emperor could be by his side. It is also beneficial for the rest of the fetus. It's just that I never see the emperor. So I want to ask the princess to help me talk to the emperor. Even if it's for the baby in my belly......"

But he knows how to use children to press me. I couldn't say no to it. I had to nod my head: "Okay. You can rest assured. I'll tell him when the emperor comes back."

"Thank you so much, princess."

"It's fine. It's all as it should be." I had a smile on my face. scolded in my heart: should be your sister. I hate it when I see you.

"Get the stuff out." Nian 'Yu' Yao said. Her 'maid' and 'girl' took out a brocade bag from her bosom. Nian 'Yu' Yao handed it to me: "This is the cat's eye ear pendant that the emperor has just rewarded. I look at the princess just right. So I brought it to the princess."

I smiled and accepted: "Thank you Nian Niangniang."

She smiled and nodded, "Then I'll go first. Princess. That thing. Please also help me talk to the emperor."

"Okay."

The young concubine is gone. Lan Yue looked at the pair of earrings: "Hmph. What is it. Such an ordinary cat's eye would dare to use it to 'trick' my family. The emperor gave Gege the best golden cat's eyes."

I'm playing with those pair of earrings. Smiled and said, "Earrings are not important. I'm afraid it's the greasy thing in this that matters." I said. Fingernails gently snap open a small mechanism on the earring. It's in there. It's just the best musk.

"See, no. She's going to give me this. You're not going to give me the earrings of the Rausch."

Lan Yue naturally knows this thing. exclaimed: "She's a 'woman'. Why are you so vicious?"

The old lady happened to walk in: "Lan Yue. Don't yell in the palace. What does it look like."

Lan Yue anxiously ran over to help the old lady over: "Mama. Look. The 'woman' brought such a heavy musk to Gege."

The old lady picked it up and took a look. Sniffed: "It's not just musk. This is blended. There's also a very heavy red 'flower' in it.Gege hurriedly threw this thing away. You can't keep it."

I shook my head, "Find a place to put it away. Throw can't be thrown. You can't wear it. When is there a shortage of money. Let's just take it and sell it." I covered my mouth and chuckled.

The old lady shook her head: "Gege......"

"It's okay, it's okay. What is this. The tricks of these 'women' in the harem. Can't you see enough?"

The old lady sighed. Seeing me frowning and 'rubbing' my shoulders. Came over and pinched it for me: "It's just that I've seen too much. Only then did I become more and more worried about Gege. You have to be careful. They must not be allowed to take advantage of any loopholes." She pinched my shoulder and asked, "Gege has been tired again lately?"

"It's fine. It's just that Concubine De has just left. The emperor is more thoughtful. That's why I went to bed late."

"How can this work. Gege has to take care of his body. to have a little prince sooner."

I thought about the 'medicine' that Kangxi gave me.I shook my head helplessly: "It's okay. It's enough for me to have Hongshi and Hongli."

"Princess. The third prince and the fourth prince are here."

"Oh." I raised my eyebrows and smiled, "That's really saying Cao ''. Let them in."

Hongshi and Hongli came to invite An. I smiled and sat them down, "Why are you here so early. Don't you have to go to class?"

"It's early for a gentleman. We rushed to see my aunt. Auntie, is she okay?" Hiroshi smiled.

I nodded, "Okay. You've been behaving a few days."

Hongli nodded: "I'm the most well-behaved. My brother is not well-behaved at all."

Hiroshi patted him on the head: "Don't 'mess' with the complaint." Then he asked me, "Auntie. We're on the way. I saw the young concubine. She's here to make trouble for her aunt?"

"It's not. Just to bring me something. By the way, let me tell you Emperor Ama. Let him go and see her."

Hiroshi frowned. Hongli snorted coldly: "Hmph. She's certainly not kind. Aunt. No matter what she sends you. You're going to throw it out as soon as it's too late."

"Hongli is right. Aunt. Her stuff. You must not take it."

I nodded: "Yes. Be of good cheer. Don't always worry about these things for your aunt. Study well. I'll help you share your worries as soon as possible. He can go to bed earlier. I won't stay up too late with me. Your aunt and I are thirty years old. Stay up like this. I'm afraid I'll age too fast."

Hongli tilted his head: "Auntie won't be old. Aunt looked. It's the same as it was back then."

Hiroshi also said on the side: "Yes. Aunt looked. It's like when you were just twenty years old. It hasn't changed at all."

I actually know it myself. From the age of twenty onwards. The face never changed again. No. More precisely. It should be since that year that the red lotus was tattooed from Wutai Mountain in the center of the eyebrows. The face never changed again.

"That's not going to stand up to this. Don't be lazy. Got it. Otherwise, my aunt is old. I won't be able to control you anymore."

Both children are older though. But before me. Still inevitably likes to be coquettish: "Auntie. My aunt won't get old. will always be with us."

"Stinky boy. It's all so big. I still like to be spoiled."

Hiroshi and Hiroshi laughed embarrassedly.

I looked at them. My heart is warm and gratifying.

The three of them said something that was not true. Time flies.

I'm just smiling happily. Xiao Shunzi suddenly ran in and said, "Princess. Something went wrong."

"What's wrong. Panicked."

"Concubine Nian was born prematurely. The doctor said that the situation was not good......"

I stood up and asked, "What. It was fine just now. How did you suddenly give birth prematurely. What's going on?"

"It seems to have arrived at the 'gate' of my own palace. I tripped and fell on the stairs ......"

"Hurry up and tell the emperor."
