Chapter 148: The Gardener

In the Buddhist hall of Cining Palace, sandalwood curls, and the Queen Mother, dressed in plain Buddha clothes, knelt on the futon, closed her eyes and recited the scriptures with a reverent face.

"Queen Mother, the news from Fengwu Palace is here."

"Say."

"The queen couldn't sleep after waking up in the middle of the night, and today the imperial doctor prescribed a prescription for soothing soup and let the queen take it."

The Li family probably guessed the ending of the bird's good bow back then, and before Emperor Jingcheng ascended the throne, he tried his best to bury the people of the Li family in the palace, and these people were not much active in the hands of the Empress Dowager Li, but had been dormant like herself.

"I can't sleep at this time, no matter how old the month is, can this queen still sit firmly, it's not cheaper than the one in Xirui Palace."

Empress Dowager Li stood up, threw the Buddha beads on the ground casually, glanced at the incense that was about to burn out, and said to Aunt Qin.

"What about the Xirui Palace? No movement at all? ”

"Nope."

"That's right, our emperor, I'm afraid it has been appeased a long time ago, otherwise where would the child in the queen's womb be able to live in peace until now."

"If it is really as the Queen Mother thinks, the emperor wants the concubine to raise the queen's child, then wouldn't the concubine ...... Queen Mother, don't you worry about ......"

"Worried? What to worry about? Worried that Jiang Ronghua will gain power and come to settle accounts with the mourning family? Not to mention that the queen's belly may not be a male fetus, even if it is, do you think she will be willing to give her child to Jiang Ronghua? ”

The boring days of Cining Palace day after day, Empress Dowager Li has long been numb, and at first she felt that it was difficult, but now she stays in the small Buddha hall for half a day every day, which is commonplace.

After pretending to be for a long time, I thought I was really a pious person.

Aunt Qin listened to the deep meaning of the Queen Mother's words, and also knew that the muddy waters of the harem were afraid to stir up more muddy.

"Back then, she could drink the poisonous wine for Jiang Ronghua with all her heart, and she would never sit back and watch her become the final winner, wait and see, our queen is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and when the two sisters completely tear their faces, the emperor should be embarrassed."

Although Empress Dowager Li lives in Cining Palace, her mind has never left the peak of power, and she doesn't care about the world, and no one who should know can hide it from her.

The eyeliner that the Li family planted back then and the contacts they cultivated now spread the movements of several palaces to Cining Palace from time to time, so that Empress Dowager Li would not really become a blind person.

Jiakangdi's Dragon Shadow Guard is not foolproof, and there is one in it who is also from the Li family, but this person Empress Dowager Li doesn't know who it is.

At a critical time, the shadow son of the Li family in the Dragon Shadow Guard will not contact the Empress Dowager Li, and it must be related to the prince at this critical time.

"What happened to those two of the old six family?"

Aunt Qin smiled when she heard the Queen Mother mention King Yu.

"That side concubine is ambitious, if it weren't for Princess Yu being found to be pregnant, I'm afraid she would have to hide it for a while."

"A concubine, who is also pregnant, is pressed everywhere, I'm afraid that girl's character can't bear it for long, you let people stare at it more, don't let her act rashly and ruin the plan of the mourning family."

"Yes."

Empress Dowager Li secretly asked people to secretly change Tong Manjiao's child-avoiding soup to make her pregnant with King Yu's heir, and she didn't want to use this child to do anything.

It's really that King Yu has been too much loved by Jia Kangdi recently, so he simply fulfilled him and made him dance more conspicuously.

Double happiness is not so easy to pick up, recently the eldest prince died, the second prince became the eldest son of Emperor Jiakang, the second princess was also diagnosed with twins in her belly, Concubine De was very happy, and she was even more hostile to Yuwangfu.

The news that the second princess was pregnant with twins was pressed down, and it took some effort for the Empress Dowager Li to know, and Concubine De thought that when the time came, she would give Emperor Jia Kangdi an auspicious saying, and earn more goodwill for King Yong, and the Empress Dowager Li would also be happy to do it.

In the palace of King Yong, Princess Yong is walking in the garden, and the gardeners are carefully waiting for the chrysanthemums of all colors in the garden.

Since she was pregnant with a child, the princess's status in the prince's heart has risen again, and the princess is busy with the affairs of the palace, and the princess has nothing to worry about every day except for raising the baby.

"Mother, do you want to sit down and rest?"

Wang walked around the garden a few times, his legs and feet were already sore, and he nodded after listening to the maid's words.

The upholstered chairs were laid out, and a small coffee table was placed next to it, on which four kinds of snacks and two kinds of preserves were placed, and the autumn sun was quite comfortable, and Wang sat there watching the florists busy.

No one noticed that Wang's eyes had been fixed on a gardener, and only the henchmen knew the purpose of Wang's frequent visits to the garden.

"The concubine greets the princess."

The abrupt sound disturbed Wang's peaceful thoughts, and he frowned unhappily and looked over, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes.

"Oh, it's you, get up."

Chen Peiwen stood up, glanced at Wang's big belly, put away her pantothenic emotion, and raised her lips.

"The princess is taking another walk in the garden today."

Since three months later, the imperial doctor said that it is necessary to take frequent walks to move the muscles and bones to facilitate production, and the Wang family often comes to the garden for a walk, and the king of Yong even ordered the idle people not to disturb the princess.

It is not the first time that Chen Peiwen has met Wang in the garden, and today she is purely bored in the house to breathe.

King Yong originally had some thoughts about women, but since the death of King Shen, there have been some changes, and he has been busy expressing himself every day, and he has not come to the backyard for a while, or should it be said that he has not been to Chen Peiwen for a while.

Wang didn't have the idea of chatting with Chen Peiwen, and he turned a deaf ear to her words, if it was before, Chen Peiwen's face would have been burning and uncomfortable, but now Chen Peiwen's ability to resist blows is a little stronger, seeing that Wang ignored himself, he cheekily sat on the chair on the other side.

Wang didn't give her a single look, he pinched a piece of orange crisp, and watched the busy figure of the gardener while eating.

Among those florists, there was a delicate-looking man who attracted Chen Peiwen's attention.

"That man looks like a scholar, but I didn't expect that the skill of playing with flowers is not bad."

Chen Peiwen just said casually, but Wang's hand holding the orange cake subconsciously tightened, glanced at Chen Peiwen slightly, and found that she just said it casually, so she was relieved and subconsciously explained.

"People should not be good-looking, and the women in the back house should be more cautious about their duties, what to say and what not to say, Concubine Chen should be clear."

Chen Peiwen didn't expect that Wang would admonish herself because of a gardener, but seeing that Wang's expression was very peaceful, she had to stand up and bend her knees.

Wang stroked her round belly, felt the fetal movement, and pierced Chen Peiwen's eyes with a loving smile, feeling even more depressed, so she retreated to her hospital to stay.

Before Su Yun followed Chen Peiwen and turned to leave, her eyes looked in the direction of the delicate man again, and there was a hint of interest in her eyes.
