The emperor and queen gathered in Likun Palace, but what happened was not reported at all, everyone only knew that the eldest princess was carried to the queen's Fengyi Palace, and Zhu Xiurong was punished without edict.
And on the second day, when everyone asked for peace, they didn't see Gu Qingwan, who was in Likun Palace yesterday, and the queen's mood obviously looked extremely bad, even if Yue Chongyuan was quite open-minded on weekdays.
In the end, the queen glanced at Ye Xiuyi, who was already pregnant, and although she was tired in her heart, she was still concerned: "It seems that this snow is going to fall for a few days, so don't come here to say hello these days." So as not to make a mistake on the road. ”
Empress Zhang can't do this, she has made mistakes one after another on the issue of the harem heir, if this Ye Xiuyi makes a mistake again, presumably the emperor will not be able to spare her.
Ye Xiuyi was originally trembling about this fetus, but now that she heard the queen like this, she didn't shirk it.
After everyone left, the queen went back to the apse, and the princess's room was located next to her inner room. The queen looked at the child whose face was not good, and even her breathing was extremely weak, and after a while, she reached out and touched her face, but the expression on her face was sad and joyless, but it made people not know what she was thinking.
Since this Ye Xiuyi was exempted from asking for peace, this Gu Qingwan naturally didn't have to ask for peace.
Because she suddenly fainted yesterday, Shao Ye was quite angry, and without asking the reason, she punished Shui Bi and Yurong for half a year. Even Aunt Hongxi, Shao Ye is not easy to open her mouth to punish, but she is quite dissatisfied in her words.
A few days later, Gu Qingwan's canonization ceremony was to be held, so the queen asked Gao Quan of the Internal Affairs Office to bring a group of palace people over, according to the rules, the people who served around Gu Qingwan were not enough concubines.
After hearing that Gao Quan was coming, Gu Qingwan looked up at Aunt Hongxi who was standing next to her, and Hongxi also looked at her, and then said respectfully: "The master is unwell, why don't you let the slave go out to deal with it." ”
"That's annoying Auntie." Gu Qingwan was very satisfied with Hongxi's answer, she had only been in this palace for a short time, and she also needed to be polite to the chief eunuch like Shang Gaoquan, who held real power.
And Hongxi himself is old, and he is favored by the emperor. Although she is only the upbringing grandmother of this Changle Palace now, she is treated as a female official of the sixth grade, you must know that even a person like Gong Ruhai is only a fifth-grade woman.
Gao Quan stood in front and behind him was a group of minions he brought, and as soon as he saw Hongxi coming out, he would greet him first. But Hongxi returned the salute with a faint expression.
"I don't know why Mr. Gao came here today?" Hongxi asked politely.
Gao Quan smiled all over his face and replied: "Concubine Gu is now the master of the first palace, but there are not enough people to serve here. The slave was ordered by the queen mother to bring some people to choose from. ”
Since ancient times, as long as the queen is not particularly useless, this palace affairs are also in the hands of the queen. So even if this ordinary concubine is favored, she doesn't dare to be presumptuous to the queen, after all, as long as the queen wants to pit you, you really can't prevent it.
This time, the queen sold enough love to Gu Qingwan, and the people who served in Changle Palace before were directly assigned by the Internal Affairs Office, so how can you choose.
However, Hongxi glanced at the eunuch palace maid behind Gao's body, but there was no fluctuation on her face, but she said calmly: "Presumably Manager Gao doesn't know, Concubine Gu Niangniang was frightened yesterday, and the emperor has already issued an order for me not to wait to trouble Niangniang with ordinary things." ”
Hongxi's face showed a look of embarrassment, and she said softly: "Now no matter how big the Changle Palace is, it is no bigger than the dragon descendant that the mother is carrying, so it is okay to choose the palace slowly." ”
When Gao Quan heard this, he couldn't help but sip Hongxi in his heart, and secretly scolded her for being a dog, but he didn't dare to show a trace of dissatisfaction on his face. After all, when Hongxi assisted Queen Duanzhang in managing the harem, many old people did not dare to forget all kinds of methods.
After sending Gao Quan away, Hongxi went to the inner room to report to Gu Qingwan, but Gu Qingwan only said lightly: "Please don't forget what should happen on the curtain day." ”
Gu Qingwan slept and then became more and more heavy, this harem is just a fighting word, she used to think that this harem was a competition between concubines and concubines, now she not only has to fight with other women, but also has to play with the emperor and fight with those disobedient minions. It's a lot of fun.
When Yurong woke her up, she knew that the emperor had ordered the sign of Changle Palace tonight. So Gu Qingwan got up and put on her clothes, and Yurong put on makeup and combed her hair.
"Is the Lord still sleepy?" Yurong looked at Gu Qingwan with some concern, since she returned to the palace yesterday, Gu Qingwan has been sleeping, and even for lunch, she has only eaten a little bit.
Gu Qingwan held up her spirit and said, "I'm fine, isn't my face ugly?" ”
Yurong looked at Gu Qingwan's increasingly crystal clear skin, which was almost transparent, and immediately comforted: "Since the master became pregnant, this skin has become better and better, presumably Aunt Hongxi's soup is also useful." ”
When Shao Ye came over, he saw Gu Qingwan on the soft couch, her arms supporting her chin, but her head was little by little. It's funny to look at it from a distance, so the mood that wasn't so good is a little better.
As soon as Gu Qingwan raised her eyes, she saw Shao Ye, and she wanted to come down to say hello to Shao Ye. Shao Ye, on the other hand, took a few steps and pressed her shoulder and said, "You just sit down, you don't need to salute." ”
Shao Ye was wearing a vermilion regular robe, with a delicate dragon embroidered on his chest, while Gu Qingwan was sitting on the soft couch and was half-pressed and half-supported by Shao Ye.
Gu Qingwan stared closely at the place where her eyes could reach, but she made a move that surprised Shao Ye, only to see her wrapping her hands around Shao Ye's waist and pressing her cheeks tightly against Shao Ye's abdomen.
Gong Ruhai looked at the back and smacked his tongue, this Gu concubine's attachment to the emperor seems to be getting deeper and deeper, but looking at the emperor's expression, it seems that she is quite high-minded.
After a while, Shao Ye sat down next to Gu Qingwan, looking at her eyes flashing with tears, and couldn't help but say helplessly: "I see that since you became pregnant, this temper has become more and more difficult to fathom. Before I can say anything, you're going to cry. ”
After finishing, he reached out and pinched the tip of Gu Qingwan's nose, and his tone was full of pampering: "You tear bag." ”
"Your Majesty, is this disgusted with concubines?" Gu Qingwan pouted and said dissatisfiedly, in fact, even she didn't know why she suddenly became so sentimental just now, thinking that this pregnant woman's mood was really wind and rain.
"I haven't even made you teary-eyed before I say this, how dare you dislike our Qingwan," Shao Ye shook his head helplessly, even he had to admit that he was a little more patient with Gu Qingwan than with others.
If the other concubines dared to cry without saying a few words in front of him, Shao Ye's face would immediately turn ugly. What's more, even the queen wouldn't dare to speak in front of him at will.
And after dinner, a palace maid served refreshments to Gu Qingwan and Shao Ye.
Gu Qingwan lifted the lid of the cup and blew the tea leaves on it, but was stopped by Hongxi before she could bring the teacup close to her mouth.
"Master, don't drink," she said this, but even Shao Ye on the other side was startled.
Gu Qingwan was slightly puzzled and asked, "Auntie, what's wrong, what's wrong with this tea?" ”
Hongxi stretched out her hand to take the teacup in Gu Qingwan's hand, scooped the tea lid away so that Shao Ye and Gu Qingwan could see the contents of the cup clearly, she said: "Because the things I just ate were a little greasy, the slave maid asked people to add chrysanthemums to the tea made by the emperor, but who knew that there were also chrysanthemums in the Niangniang's cup." ”
Shao Ye's face sank immediately when he heard this, with his knowledge, he didn't know that this chrysanthemum was cold, and it was the worst for this pregnant woman.
"This Changle Palace is so careless even for a maid who is responsible for the master's food, what's the use of asking you slaves?" Shao Ye put down the teacup in his hand heavily, but the anger that had accumulated in his heart was stirred up at this time.
Gu Qingwan saw that Shao Ye was really going to be angry, so she got up and pleaded guilty: "Is it the concubine □ the subordinates who are not effective, and please don't be angry about this matter?" ”
"Things? Today she can serve you the wrong tea, and tomorrow she will dare to let you eat the wrong thing," Shao Ye's words are not serious.
He suddenly turned his head to Gong Ruhai and ordered: "Send the palace maid who served tea just now to the Huanyi Bureau, and you can find some proper people to come and serve Gu Concubine." ”
Gu Qingwan stood aside with her head down, with a proper expression on her face, but she was already overjoyed in her heart, she originally thought it would be very difficult, but she didn't expect that this would let the emperor intervene and replace the people in her palace.
However, she didn't feel guilty at all about the palace maid who was sent to the Huanyi Bureau, because she was originally the eyeliner that someone else had placed in Changle Palace.
The etiquette of canonization in the palace has always been cumbersome, but because Ye Xiuyi and Gu Qingwan are both pregnant, the queen ordered the officials of the Ministry of Rites to simplify and simplify the entire ceremony, and strive to make the two of them not have accidents during the canonization ceremony.
And on the day of the canonization, the Shangyi Bureau sent the court clothes early. The court dress is the best embroidery in the world hand-sewn, if it is placed in modern times, it is a high-end custom level of clothing, but this kind of high-end is something that money can't buy.
Aunt Hongxi personally put on her court clothes, and her face was also excited.
After dressing up, Gu Qingwan was helped into the car, and her car arrived slightly earlier than Ye Xiuyi's. And after Ye Xiuyi arrived, they walked step by step to the Taihe Hall under the leadership of the officials of the Ministry of Rites.
Because when she was promoted to the position of concubine, she would be engraved with a gold book with her name to prove her identity. And Ye Xiuyi was promoted to the ninth concubine, and her canonization etiquette was even more complicated.
The other thing is that after tossing for most of the day, the faces of the two pregnant women are not good-looking. The female ceremonial officer next to her has long been trained by the queen, and she should mainly focus on the bodies of the two mothers, which is very late, although the process is slightly accelerated, but it is not slow.
And after the etiquette was over, Gu Qingwan first took a car and drove with Ye Xiuyi to greet the queen, although she only kowtowed outside Fengyi Palace, but this etiquette was unnecessary.
When she really returned to the palace, Hongxi had already ordered to boil the fetal pills, and Gu Qingwan fell asleep again after drinking it. She didn't know anything about the rewards sent by the palaces behind.
And on the second day, she had to force herself to ask the queen for peace, because this was the first time she was officially promoted to Gu Concubine. After dressing up according to the rank of the concubine, Gu Qingwan went to Fengyi Palace.
When Gu Qingwan greeted the queen, she saw Concubine Rou with a big belly next to her, and she was wondering how this Concubine Rou could be here.
I heard Concubine Jingde say: "Sister Ye and Sister Gu are really good-looking, that is, Concubine Rou came to congratulate you today?" ”
Concubine Rou didn't hear it, just idly fiddling with the lid of the cup next to her with her fingers, Concubine Jingde looked at her and was very annoyed, just thinking about it but saw the queen's gaze.
After everyone arrived, the queen admonished Gu Qingwan and Ye Xiuyi a few words. And just as the people were talking, Concubine Rou suddenly called out.
When Gu Qingwan looked over, she saw that Concubine Rou was holding her stomach and her face was sallow, and the beads of sweat on her forehead kept coming out. Hongru next to Concubine Rou was holding her by the side, but everyone in the hall was stunned for a while.
And the queen was the first to react, and she immediately shouted: "Why are you still stunned, why don't you invite the imperial doctor over." ”
Although Concubine Rou was holding on, the voice made because she couldn't bear the pain still knocked on every Rao Xinzheng
Hongru said on the side: "Queen Mother, I'm afraid our mother is about to give birth." ”
In this harem, the real scheming person is the kind of person who can quickly calm down in an emergency, and obviously the queen is such a person.
It's just that what Gu Qingwan didn't expect was that there was another person who was Concubine Jingde, and she looked at Concubine Rou next to her and commanded Hongru in a deep voice.
Then he looked at the queen and said: "Queen, Concubine Rou's sister is about to give birth, I wonder if Niangniang can borrow Fengyi Palace to let Concubine Rou give birth?" ”
When Concubine Jingde said this, the worry on her face made Gu Qingwan feel that she really cared about Concubine Rou. It can be seen that even if the woman in this harem is a word, there are other meanings behind it.
Concubine Rou suddenly gave birth prematurely in the queen's palace, if the queen forcibly let her give birth in the palace, not only the emperor but also the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty estimated that the queen was not generous enough.
But once the queen allowed Concubine Rou to give birth in Fengyi Palace, not giving birth to a child has always been regarded as a filthy thing in ancient times, and once Concubine Rou and the prince have three long and two short, then the queen is a thousand mouths are not clear.
The queen looked at Concubine Jingde, and said coldly: "This palace is the master of the harem, and this concubine Rou's sister will naturally bear the relationship with her childbirth." ”
The expression on Concubine Jingde's face froze, although she always scooped up the queen, but once the queen was angry, she didn't dare to do anything.
"Come on, help Concubine Rou to the side hall."
The queen calmly commanded the palace people to help people to the side hall, and at this time, Wen Po, who was in charge of production, was also dragged over from Guan Ju Palace. Obviously, Concubine Rou's premature birth is bound to break some of Rao's plans, but I wonder if this queen is also in the plan?
The other concubines couldn't leave at this time, and the other people sat in the main hall with big eyes, but Gu Qingwan never looked up at anyone.
After a while, in the silence of this room, suddenly Yue Chongyuan spoke: "This Roufei Niangniang really has a fate with our queen's mother, a few days ago, I heard that the queen's fourth sister and the third brother of Roufei were discussing marriage, and today the child in Roufei's womb was born in this Fengyi Palace." ”
Yue Chongyuan suddenly covered her handkerchief and said with a smile: "In the future, our concubine Rou and the queen will not kiss each other." ”
When other people heard this, they only felt that this Yue Chongyuan was jealous of the relationship between Concubine Rou and the queen in the future, and some people thought that she was just worried. After all, the relationship between the favorite concubine and the queen will not become harmonious because of the marriage between the two families.
But after Gu Qingwan heard this, her heart was abrupt, and she didn't know why, but she couldn't help but panic.
Although the people of this Fengyi Palace have never served on the matter of childbirth, they are also orderly under the command of Wen Po and the medical woman.
In the inner room, Wen Po looked pale, and beads of sweat kept sliding down to Concubine Rou from her forehead, and couldn't help but say: "Niangniang saves some strength now, and when the palace road is opened, the slave and maid will exert more force." ”
Concubine Rou's slender white fingers tightly grasped the quilt under her body, and the feeling of falling in her lower abdomen made her can't help but want to shout the big sword, she thought that the queen must be sitting outside, so she held back.
I thought that my fourth sister and the queen's family would get married, and the queen would be soft on herself, at least she would not embarrass herself in the matter of the prince's birth, but I didn't expect this woman to be so vicious.
Thinking of this, Concubine Rou took another breath, and Hongru came in with a bowl of natural birth medicine, and she and Wen Po worked together to lift Concubine Rou's upper body and let her drink this natural birth medicine.
The more she got to the back, the more drowsy she felt, and she wished to fall asleep immediately.
And the queen sat outside and listened to the miserable screams inside, and after being upset for a while, she suddenly said to the red sleeves beside her: "Red sleeves, you go to the main hall and let the others disperse." ”
Red Sleeves looked at the queen's appearance, and without even daring to say anything else, he immediately walked towards the main hall.
After everyone heard the news, some were disappointed, some were unwilling, and in short, their expressions were extraordinarily rich. Only Gu Qingwan wanted to go back quickly, because she really wanted to sleep very much.
This Dayan Palace is destined to be not quiet, although the entire palace looks quiet on the surface, but there is an endless stream of people sent out by various palaces to inquire about the news.
And the Changle Palace, which has always been quiet, is even quieter at this time, and everyone in the palace seems to have not heard of Concubine Rou's birth, and even the six sons, who are responsible for finding out the news on weekdays, also stay in the palace Zheng honestly
Because Gu Qingwan only said a word after coming back, she gave me a good stay in the palace, and then fell asleep again.
Hongxi stayed alone inside and outside, and occasionally when Shui Bi came over, she only saw her silent.
When Gu Qingwan woke up, it was dark in the room, and it was already night when she looked through the window. In winter, the day becomes more and more broken.
After thinking about it for a long time, she still bracked herself up, trying to get up from the bed slowly. And as soon as she left, she heard the sound of the door being pushed at the door.
Gu Qingwan followed the faint light outside and watched the black shadow approach her step by step.
"Auntie, have you been guarding outside?" Gu Qingwan asked softly.
After Hongxi approached and helped Gu Qingwan, Fang said, "The slave has been outside." ”
"How's it going?"
Hongxi lowered her head and replied softly: "It's been four hours, but Concubine Rou hasn't given birth to the child in her womb yet, so the situation is not good." ”
Gu Qingwan lowered her head and looked at the jade bracelet on her arm, this was given to her by Shao Ye when she was just pregnant, and it had an excellent effect on pregnant women.
At that time, she secretly laughed at the superstition of the ancients, but it was just a jade bracelet, which was from the gods and gods, and now it seems that she is not stupid.
"Since my aunt is well-informed now, why don't you ask my aunt to tell this palace, whose hand is it today?" Gu Qingwan's voice at this time seemed unusually distant in this dark room.
Hongxi's heart moved, but she just said slowly: "Can't Niangniang see it?" ”
Gu Qingwan first chuckled, and then became choked, but Hongxi did not say anything to comfort her. Hongxi couldn't see Gu Qingwan's expression clearly, she could only see her slender body shaking, and the sound in her throat seemed to be laughter and crying.
"I can't see it, I just can't see it, how can I see it?" Gu Qingwan asked three times in a row, while Hongxi only stood silently aside.
In the end, Gu Qingwan said sharply: "I want my aunt to give me an answer today, I don't want to guess anymore, I don't want to think about it anymore, I just want to hear your aunt with my own ears." ”
Hongxi looked up at the person who was still trembling opposite, but his voice was unusually firm: "Presumably Niangniang already knows about the upcoming marriage between the Zhang family and the Lian family, one is the head of the civil officials, and the other is a military general who holds military power at the time, who do you think wants them to marry the most?" ”
Who else?
Naturally, it is the one in the Qiyuan Palace.
Gu Qingwan knew at this time that it was not a good thing to see too clearly, because if you saw too clearly, you had to make a choice.
In her previous life, Gu Qingwan was the first batch of only children, and the whole family was pampered and pampered, and her parents loved her like a jewel. She always thought that although Shao Ye was not a good husband, at least he could be a good father. But from his treatment of Zhu Xiurong that day, Gu Qingwan had already gotten a glimpse or two, so today she really knows this creature called the emperor.
For the sake of the emperor, everything must be worthless in their eyes.
"Our saint is really a good emperor."
Hongxi stood on the opposite side, and the Buddha didn't hear Gu Qingwan's rebellious words.
After a long time, Gu Qingwan's voice regained clarity, and she said calmly: "Auntie come over to change clothes in this palace, this palace is hungry." ”
After the news of dinner came, Yurong found that the master was very silent tonight, but he had eaten more than before.
It wasn't until the night when he was going to bed that news came from Fengyi Palace that Concubine Rou gave birth to a prince.
Gu Qingwan had already changed her bed clothes when she heard the news, she answered lightly, and then took Yurong's hand and walked to the bedside.
Yurong wanted to speak, but when she looked at her face, she didn't dare to say anything.
