Chapter Ninety-Four: Surprise but Joy
Now that the queen is pregnant, the capital is full of joy.
The best candidate for the prince of a country is naturally the son-in-law, the queen is weak and unblessed, and it is already criticized, if it were not for Jiakangdi's insistence and the deep background of the Chu family, the position of the queen would not have been surnamed Chu for so many years.
There is no summer anxiety in Fengwu Palace, everyone walks briskly like the wind, and the dead palace in the past reveals a vigorous vitality everywhere.
Honglian watched Chu Shumo happily drink the fetal pill, and after handing the empty bowl to the imperial doctor, she hurriedly handed over the candied fruit, but Chu Shumo raised her hand to block it.
"This fetal pill is not bitter, let's put it away in the future, I don't need it."
Honglian was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
"Niangniang is sweet in her heart, so this medicine doesn't feel bitter."
Chu Shumo smiled faintly when she heard this, and she didn't deny it, but in fact, she just took all the bitter medicines, just fetal pills, what could not be tolerated.
"Your Majesty, the message has passed?"
"Yes, the Queen Mother personally ordered someone to send a letter, and I guess I should be able to receive a reply today."
Chu Shumo lowered her eyes and glanced at her lower abdomen, which was still flat, and cheered up and waited for the news of the palace.
When Tong Qingyan had not yet arrived at the palace in the capital, she learned the news of the queen's pregnancy from Song Zhan.
"What's going on? Could it be that the queen also went to Wuhuang Temple to worship the Buddha? ”
Tong Qingyan took a bite of the smoothie, squinted her eyes and waited for the coolness in her mouth to pass, and sighed and looked at Song Zhan who was sitting opposite.
Song Zhan was not interested in this kind of sweet, but seeing Tong Qingyan's joy, it was indeed cold and relieved of the heat, so he also tried to eat it.
"The queen is risking her life."
"Is the queen's health so bad?"
"The news from the hospital is that the queen should have taken a secret medicine and forcibly raised her vitality to conceive this child."
"The queen has a full-time imperial doctor, doesn't he know?"
"You also said that he is the queen's full-time imperial doctor, and he naturally takes the queen's heart as the guideline."
Tong Qingyan was silent, a woman is willing to overdraw her longevity for the sake of her child, this kind of sacrifice is not commendable, but at least the queen does this, Tong Qingyan feels that she is very sad.
Song Zhan told Tong Qingyan about this, purely in the spirit of gossip and sharing together, Song Zhan has never paid much attention to the queen prince, this queen has been transparent for too many years, and the recent actions are a bit much.
"Why didn't the emperor's dragon shadow guard get the news?"
Tong Qingyan suddenly remembered that this organization that went directly to Tianting was responsible for all the intelligence collection that the emperor wanted, and it stands to reason that the matter of the Empress Prince should be no later than Song Zhan's secret guard knew.
"The Dragon Shadow Guard in Fengwu Palace should have been exposed a long time ago, if I guessed correctly, the Empress Prince has been stable for so many years, and the emperor never imagined that she would suddenly take action."
The Chu family has a queen, in order to protect the posteriority, the Chu family sacrificed the officialdom for many years, although there is no Chu family, but no one dares to ignore this family.
The Chu family in the capital has been low-key for many years, and now that the queen is pregnant, the door of the Chu family has faintly begun to be lively, and several groups of people who came to visit the door came in an instant, but they were all blocked back, and no one could get in.
Jiakangdi has completely relaxed his body and mind since he came to the palace, enjoying a rare and comfortable time, listening to a song today and taking a boat to a lake tomorrow, the concubine often accompanies him, and occasionally summons one or two low-level concubines, although he still has to review the music every day, but the number of music after screening is less than half of the time in the capital.
This kind of comfort and calm did not last for a few days, but it was broken by the news from the fast horses in the capital.
"What do you say? Tell me again! ”
Emperor Jiakang sat up in disbelief, and the concubines who were rubbing the acupuncture points for the emperor also stood up and knelt down in shock.
The messenger was the eunuch of Cining Palace, who knelt on the ground with uneven breath at the moment, and when he heard Emperor Jiakang's question, he repeated it as smoothly as he could.
"The queen mother is happy, the queen mother ordered the slaves to come to the news, the emperor is happy, and the queen is happy."
The little eunuch really didn't hear Jia Kangdi's tone, there was only surprise and no joy, Jia Kangdi looked at the palace people who were kneeling on the ground, and it took a long time to react, and hurriedly walked out of Lusheng Garden to Lanyue Pavilion.
The concubine who was pruning the flower branches in the Lanyue Pavilion, after hearing the words of the palace people's reply, the scissors in her hands fell off in shock, and they fell on the tip of her shoes at once, and she suddenly fell down in pain.
Qiu Xin screamed and pounced, and the other palace maids also stepped forward anxiously, trying to pull the concubine up from the ground, and Jia Kangdi saw this scene when he arrived.
"What's going on?! What's the matter, Aifei, what's wrong with you? ”
Jiang Ronghua looked up at Jiakangdi who stepped forward and grabbed his wrist, and after being stunned for a few seconds, he waved his hand violently to open Jiakangdi's hand to support him, grabbed the scissors and walked towards the house in despair.
Jia Kangdi wanted to catch up, but suddenly remembered something, turned around and glanced at the palace people kneeling on the ground, and said in a deep voice.
"Who chewed the root of the tongue in front of the concubine?!"
Qiu Xin glanced at the trembling palace maid, closed her eyes and replied resignedly.
"If you go back to the emperor, it's her."
Jia Kangdi looked in the direction of Qiu Xin's finger, his eyes full of anger.
"Who told you to tell you right and wrong in front of the concubine?!"
"Your Majesty, the slave knows that she is wrong, and the slave and the maid don't dare anymore! The slave just heard a father-in-law shouting all the way, it was the mother who asked the slave to listen to what the father-in-law said, the slave didn't mean it, the slave really didn't mean it......"
Jia Kangdi's mood at the moment was extremely tyrannical, his gloomy gaze swept over everyone in Lanyue Pavilion, and finally made a light order.
"Drag it down and be killed, and be a companion with that eunuch, something that doesn't understand the rules."
Before the palace maid could call for help, she was gagged by someone who appeared out of nowhere, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Qiu Xin's hands were tightly clasped together, and he suppressed his trembling body to the point of trembling.
When the movement of Lanyue Pavilion reached the ears of Song Zhan and Tong Qingyan, the two were playing chess.
Tong Qingyan is a stinky chess basket, she has always regretted playing chess but is still full of interest, Song Zhanle hides here to kill time, it is better to face a stinky chess basket than to face the emperor and the concubine.
Because of Song Zhan, Su Miao and Ran Dong wanted to come to Tong Qingyan to play but didn't dare, so they could only go to Shuangxi and Pearl, who also didn't dare to disturb the two of them.
Under the teaching of Tong Qingyan, Pearl is also a good eater, and the support of Su Miao and Ran Dong has stimulated the potential of Pearl, and she is particularly enthusiastic about eating.
The four little girls were chattering and pondering the delicious, Su Yu looked at the fire, glanced at the pot from time to time, and waited to eat, but it was also very harmonious.
