A few days later, a layer of new snow fell in Yedu, and as far as the eye could see, the palace was white, and the gray sky was connected into a chaos.

Mu Biwei was wearing a very inconspicuous gray squirrel fur fur, and only a few pieces of the hairpin ring were left, wearing a very common bun in the palace, and was accompanied by Ah Shan all the way to the side hall that was cleaned in the Lanlin Palace.

This side hall has long been unoccupied, but the cloister is very wide, and half of it has not been covered with snow.

They were very careful to choose a place without snow, bypassing the cloister, not entering the hall, passing through directly, and arriving at the first courtyard behind the side hall surrounded by palace walls on three sides, with only a small door leading to the outside world, there was a small pavilion in the courtyard, and the door was tightly closed.

Mu Bi made a slight look, Ah Shan went up and knocked on the door, the door opened immediately, but it was Xie Yu, seeing the two of them, nodded: "The princess is inside, Xuanhui Niangniang, please go in." ”

While speaking, he went out and made a gesture of invitation, obviously to let Mu Biwei and Concubine Wen talk alone.

Mu Biwei said to Ah Shan: "You accompany Aunt Xie to sit nearby." ”

Entering the door, there was furniture in this small xuan, and there was no dust around, it was obviously cleaned up, Concubine Wen sat on the top, and put a pot of silver frost charcoal at her feet, and the red fox fur on her body was half draped and half dissolved, obviously a charcoal basin was not hot enough, even if it was put close, it could not be untied.

Mu Biwei saluted respectfully: "Concubine! ”

"Good boy, what more courtesy do you have with me?" Concubine Wen said lovingly, "It's cold here, you can't put more things, you come closer to the charcoal fire, don't freeze you." ”

"The concubine came out for me, and I caused the concubine." Mu Biwei is sincerely grateful to the former Wei princess who really cares about helping herself in this deep palace, but never wants anything in return, she has been in the palace for two years, although she relies on Nie Yuansheng's help, but Nie Yuansheng can't directly interfere in the affairs of the harem, not to mention that the Empress Dowager Gao doesn't like him very much, if there is no mediation and ventilation from Concubine Wen, her life will definitely be much sader.

In the past, in addition to occasionally exchanging glances with the Queen Mother, Concubine Wen had any news to ask Xie Yu to pass on, and this time she actually left Ganquan Palace to meet herself, obviously the matter is not small - but I don't know if it is related to the little beauty who has been moved to Ganquan Palace and stared at by the Empress Dowager Gao?

Mu Biwei sat down next to Concubine Wen's hand as she said, only to hear Concubine Wen smile and say, "What's not involved?" Since I knew that you were going to enter the palace, I wanted to meet you alone and say a few words...... It's a pity that I haven't had a chance, I'm afraid that it will be more difficult to have a chance in the future, thinking about taking advantage of the lack of spirit in the past two days, the Queen Mother came to see you. ”

As she spoke, she patted Mu Biwei's hand, her expression was gentle, like a loving mother, Mu Biwei couldn't help but think of her biological mother who died early, and her heart was sour.

"How is your grandmother now?" When Concubine Wen saw her expression, she hurriedly led her to speak.

Mu Biwei heard this, calmed down, and then suppressed the sourness, and said with a smile: "The blessing of the concubine - grandmother is much faster than these two young. She thought for a while, "Grandmother came to the palace twice last time, and she also asked if the concubine was good, she said that in the past two years, when she entered the palace and went to the Heyi Palace, she never saw the concubine, and she was a little worried." ”

"I was favored by your grandfather back then...... Concubine Wen saw that Mu Biwei was about to interrupt, shook her head with a smile, and said, "Grace is grace, even now Da Wei is still there, with your grandfather's maintenance back then, that is also grace!" Don't say anything about the king's minister...... Well, in short, my relationship with the Mu family, now His Majesty is young, I'm afraid I don't remember it very much, but the Queen Mother knows, I'm afraid of causing trouble on both sides, so your grandmother met the Queen Mother, I always looked for opportunities to avoid it, but I didn't want to, but I told her to worry. ”

Mu Biwei bit her lower lip and said, "In the past two years, I have also been protected by the concubine, I told my grandmother last time, and my grandmother said that I shouldn't worry about the concubine!" ”

"What's the point of being polite like that?" Concubine Wen smiled dumbly and said, "I heard that your grandmother has a great-eldest grandson?" ”

"Yes, it's my eldest brother's eldest son, named Mu Rong." Mu Bi said slightly, "It's a pity that I'm still young now, and I haven't even seen it, but I heard that he is a fat and cute child, very strong, but I don't know if I am handsome when I grow up." ”

"It's good to be strong, it's not a big deal whether Lang Jun is handsome or not, not to mention that although I haven't seen your brother and sister-in-law, but looking at your appearance, they can't be bad, how can their children be bad?" Concubine Wen sighed with emotion: "In the blink of an eye, our generation is old!" ”

"Where does the concubine deserve an old word?" Mu Bi smiled slightly, Concubine Wen smiled, and shook her head: "The two of us have been in this palace for a long time, and now we have to coax each other if we can't say two words...... It's really coaxing, and people are used to it. ”

Mu Biwei also felt that although Fang Cai's words were sincere, they were too scene, and she couldn't help but laugh to herself: "What the concubine said is ...... Then I also said bluntly, everything is fine in my family, my grandmother went back to the palace, and asked about the marriage of King Gaoyang when no one was around, saying that the king is now sixteen years old, and he has reached the age of marriage, otherwise the royal ceremony is cumbersome, and he can't ask the king to rush to get married, so he asked me if the queen mother deliberately refused to mention it. ”

Concubine Wen smiled and said: "Your old lady has always been an honest person, when she married your grandmother, I can still meet her a few times occasionally, I know her temperament best, and I can ask her to ask this, that is really suspicious - next time you tell her that it is okay, Shiro's marriage will be discussed tomorrow spring, in the end, this year to catch up with His Majesty's crown, immediately mention Shiro's marriage, don't let Your Majesty meet those cumbersome ceremonies, don't say a lot of things, if something goes wrong in the middle, it is Shiro who suffers." ”

Mu Biwei knew that what she said was the truth, King Gaoyang only tied his hair last year, according to royal habits, it was time to discuss marriage, but this year is the year of Ji Shen and the crown, so it is easy to force this monarch to pro-government, those state affairs and court affairs are piled up, and suddenly add a piece of King Gaoyang to get married, who knows if Ji Shen will make trouble when he is busy? You've got to give him some time to get used to.

And even if Ji Shen doesn't feel upset about the things that were added when he was busy at first, it is easy to make mistakes in the rush in the end - but Concubine Wen doesn't know that those pieces were not changed by Ji Shen at all, and he was not forced to go crazy by state affairs at all......

This is not a small matter, and it may not be a blessing to know it, Mu Biwei thought about it again and again but didn't tell Concubine Wen, but said: "Actually...... I have also heard some shadows about the marriage of King Gaoyang......"

Concubine Wen smiled: "But don't you dare to tell your grandmother at will?" Actually, it doesn't matter, she knows it. ”

"And that's not all." Mu Biwei thought about it, what Ji Shen Kaichun wanted to do might be to anger the Empress Dowager Gao again, and it might not have anything to do with Concubine Wen, so she whispered, "I heard...... His Majesty intends to propose marriage for King Gaoyang, and then choose a woman to enter the palace! ”

Hearing this, Concubine Wen frowned, but she didn't look surprised: "I haven't picked it for three years, and it's time to talk about it, it's just ...... In the name of proposing a marriage to Shiro? Could it be that His Majesty intends to admit the daughter of Gaomen into the palace? ”

"After only hearing such a shadow, the concubine also knows that there are not many high-ranking positions in the palace now." Mu Biwei said truthfully, "The scattered number is uncertain, the twenty-seventh woman and the eighty-first maid are still early from the full quota, these two are also serious concubines, not very low, the people in the past, Your Majesty doesn't think it's too fresh." ”

Concubine Wen herself has been a princess and an imperial concubine, and now she has survived to the concubine, and she is no longer clear about the nature of the king, not to mention that Ji Shen still saw the end of the trouble for the Sun family back then, so she sighed: "This is what happened when I entered the palace, I want to see you and tell you this." ”

As he spoke, he solemnly took out a palm-sized brocade box from his sleeve: "This is a transcription, but the original recipe is inconvenient for you." Concubine Wen explained, "In order to find this recipe, I asked Xie Yu to come forward to inquire and buy it, for fear that revealing traces in the future will make people suspicious of you...... So I kept the original recipe, but I copied it myself, so it can be inferred that I care about Shiro's heir. ”

Mu Bi glanced at it slightly, and had already found that it was a prescription, and when she heard the word heir, her heart jumped: "Concubine? ”

"This is handed down from the former Wei Palace." Concubine Wen said gently, "Concubine Ping, who was extremely favored by Emperor Zhao of Wei in the past, have you heard of it?" Concubine Ping was born sick, and when she was sick, Emperor Zhao loved her very much, but she was a woman in the palace, and if she was sick, she would not die early, that is, it would be difficult to give birth, but Concubine Ping used this recipe for only half a year, and she was pregnant, and gave birth to a son and two daughters...... Before the death of Wei, this recipe fell into the hands of an old mother, I also did the concubine of the first emperor back then, the queen mother gave birth to three sons, I don't have any news, at that time was Xie Yu's mother Han, she was anxious, so she remembered that when Wei died, I heard a companion who escaped from the Wei palace mentioned a sentence or two, and wanted to find this recipe for me...... Just as I was talking, I found out that I was pregnant, and I let it go for fear of too many things. ”

Concubine Wen said with a smile, "This recipe is a good person who doesn't care about it, I've seen all the medicines in it, it's not difficult to get, you can take a few other medicinal herbs, so as not to let people see it...... Well, the inner division has changed now, I heard that you and Gu Changfu have known each other since they entered the palace, so it's not difficult to get it? Don't worry, it's that you lost your body when you drank the shunzi soup, and this medicine can be drunk for two or three months at most - that Ping Guifei is not born delicate like you, she is born with a deficiency disease, a veritable sick beauty, and your complexion is not comparable to her! ”

Mu Biwei didn't know how to describe it in her heart at the moment, her eyes were red, and she suddenly burst into tears, and hurriedly took the prescription away: "The concubine treats me so well......

"I don't like to hear that." Concubine Wen patted the back of her hand and said gently, "In this palace, women rely on their heirs, favored by the emperor, unless they meet those lovers, but you see, how many lovers can have a good end and the women who are protected by them have a good end?" Since you have come in, and now you are pampered, don't think too much, it is only right to give birth to your own flesh and blood with peace of mind...... I'm not saying that Princess Xiping is bad, but it's different if a woman doesn't have a biological flesh and blood in her life, whether it's a princess or a prince, she was born by herself...... It's a joy to watch, too! ”

"I don't know how to repay this kindness, concubine." Mu Biwei put the prescription back into the brocade box, wiped her tears and choked up, "Don't hide it from the concubine, the last time the Sun family made a public disturbance on the Queen Mother's birthday, after I went back, I guessed that someone on the Sun side was pregnant, and even secretly broke the male fetus, so I deliberately made such a fuss, and asked the Queen Mother to personally refuse to raise Princess Xintai, so as to prepare for the Sun family to raise the prince...... Even if the Queen Mother agrees, with Princess Xintai here, the Sun family can say that the Queen Mother is not tired...... Originally, although her position was above me, I could still compete with her, but if she had a prince, speaking of which, His Majesty would frequently summon palace concubines, but the heirs in the palace ......"

She wiped a handkerchief a few times and got wet, which would not care about her manners, she wiped her sleeve indiscriminately, and kneeled in front of her knee with a cry and a smile: "I haven't slept well for a few nights, just thinking about how to find out the pregnant concubine, but I can find out if I started...... I hesitated, let's talk about it, as the concubine said, I don't have a biological flesh and blood, this heart really can't be determined, even if Xintai is a princess, it is always the Sun family's biological ......"

"I know." Concubine Wen's eyes showed sadness, "My own blood and blood are connected, this is different from the feeling of raising others, not to mention that I struggled to give birth in October?" Good boy, don't worry, I'm here to give you a package ticket, as short as a year, or as late as a year and a half, you will definitely be able to hold your own blood! ”

Mu Biwei reluctantly suppressed her crying, and was pulled on the bed by Concubine Wen again, and after calming down, she said to Concubine Wen: "The Queen Mother has now taken that little beauty to Ganquan Palace, but I think that since the Sun family dared to make such a fuss in the Heyi Hall or the Queen Mother's birthday last time, the arrangement will definitely not be so simple...... Concubine, I doubt that there may not be only one pregnant concubine in the Sun family, and both of them may not be male fetuses! ”

Concubine Wen heard the meaning of her words, but smiled strangely: "Don't worry, although the Queen Mother is a little inferior in means...... But in some things, I am not confused! ”

When these words were brought, Mu Biwei saw that Concubine Wen didn't mean to say much, and she didn't ask, and continued to accompany her to gossip, and listened to Concubine Wen carefully mention it for a long time, looking at the time, it was really not early, Xie Yu also came in and urged again and again, and the two were reluctant to say goodbye.
