At this time, there was a trace of hesitation on Hongxi's face, she seemed to want to stop Gu Qingwan, but Gu Qingwan didn't look at her, because she just let Gu Shuzhi understand that this harem was not as glamorous as she looked.
"Even the queen in this harem can't see the emperor every day, let alone those women who have been unfavored for many years, and there are also those who have not seen their faces for a few years at the low point. You are the daughter of the Gu family, and you have grown up with tens of millions of love, but how can you be so confused about this matter, not to mention that you actually let that sister of the Zhang family scoop it in your hands, but it is really a shame for our Gu family's daughter. ”
Gu Shuzhi has always held her hand in her heart because she is a concubine, and Zhou's teaching of her daughter has always been based on pampering, if it weren't for such nonsense, Gu Qingwan would not be angry and wanted to take her into the palace to teach her a lesson.
Originally, the Liu family did not agree to let Gu Shuzhi enter the palace, because she had already thought about the emperor, and if she was allowed to take the opportunity to catch up with the emperor this time, it would not be worth the loss.
When Gu Qingwan heard this, she immediately sneered: "Since I let her enter the palace, I can straighten her temperament for me." Besides, when a discerning person saw the situation that day, he knew that Shuzhi was also involved in it, and if I took her into the palace, others would at most think that she was just being used. ”
Over, Gu Qingwan also sighed and said, "If it weren't for the fact that the sixth brother was discussing marriage, how would I care about her these things, at most, I would send her to marry." But this is a matter of our Gu family's tutoring, and I don't want her actions to affect the marriage of the sixth brother. ”
After hearing this, Liu also felt that this was indeed the reason, so he acquiesced to her actions.
It was only in the past few days that Gu Shuzhi would be in Changle Palace, obviously accompanying Gu Qingwan to relieve her boredom, but in fact, Gu Qingwan really taught her a good lesson.
When Shao Ye came over, he saw Gu Shuzhi hanging his head and being helped out. However, he didn't ask much, just walked over and held Gu Qingwan's hand, and said gently: "It's still you drinking indiscriminately, it's really cold outside." ”
Gu Qingwan's hand was wrapped around Shao Ye's hand, and seeing that there were only zero snowflakes on his shoulders, and the palms of his hands were also extraordinarily warm, he whispered: "It's the queen mother who is sympathetic to me, and the silver carbon she gave me is twice as much as in the portion." ”
Shao Ye was in a good mood today, and said softly: "You are pregnant, you should be treated more preferentially, me and the queen, in the future, you can not go to this unimportant banquet in the palace." ”
When Gu Qingwan heard this, her heart was soft.
It's not that she doesn't have a heart, compared to other women in the palace, Shao Ye has taken care of her, and Gu Qingwan doesn't want to care about her, it's just that she is afraid of breaking the iron wall in her heart. She knew too well the consequences of falling in love with the emperor in this harem, and she didn't want to end up like that.
So she can only care about this man as much as possible on the premise of protecting herself, because she doesn't want to feel indebted to him.
"What are you thinking?" Shao Ye looked at her and seemed to be in a daze and immediately asked, and Gu Qingwan couldn't help but be stunned, and couldn't help but scold herself in her heart, she actually lost her mind in front of the emperor.
"The concubine thinks that this Sister Ye also has a body, and since the emperor has given me grace, it is better to give Sister Ye grace as well." Gu Qingwan reached out to hold his arm, while Shao Ye looked at Gu Qingwan and smiled a little happily.
"Why does the emperor look at the concubine like this?" Gu Qingwan was a little embarrassed to be stared at by Shao Ye's eyes.
It's just that Shao Ye stretched out his hand to wrap around her and said softly: "Qingwan is still so generous." ”
When it was night, Gu Qingwan was woken up by a leg cramp.
She tried to sit up, but it was difficult to even turn over, so she had to try to reach for her calf. And this kind of tossing woke Shao Ye up, and he watched Gu Qingwan move around with confused eyes.
"What's wrong with you?" Shao Ye looked at her appearance of using her hands and feet at the same time, and asked.
Gu Qingwan looked at Shao Ye with some embarrassment, Shao Ye, who tossed in the middle of the night when she was going to eat hot pot a few days ago, didn't sleep anything, and now she woke her up again.
Shao Ye saw the embarrassment on her face, so he comforted her: "I also know that this pregnant woman has always been unhappy with her body, and she is not comfortable with Xuan Taiyi. ”
"Don't, don't ......", Gu Qingwan grabbed his arm and said, her face was slightly embarrassed: "The concubine just has some leg cramps." ”
Shao Ye gently lifted the quilt, and the person also moved to Gu Qingwan's leg and put her leg on his thigh. When I asked carefully what the cramp was, I immediately started pinching it.
"Your Majesty, why don't you let Shui Bi and the others come," Gu Qing proposed in a gentle voice.
However, it was obvious that the emperor was still a little interested in this thing that he had never done before, and when he saw him pinching Gu Qingwan's legs, he asked, "Do you have such cramps every night?" ”
"Not really, just occasionally."
"Let's announce the imperial doctor tomorrow to come and take a look, this guy is tossing the concubine like this in the stomach, but he is really disobedient," Shao Ye stretched out a hand to touch Gu Qingwan's abdomen, but with a smile on his face.
Both of them were sitting in the gauze tent in close-fitting clothes, but such a bland conversation made Gu Qingwan feel very reassured.
And at this moment, Gong Ruhai's voice came from outside the door, and he said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty's ......."
"What?"
"The queen mother sent to pass the word, it's the eldest princess who is not good."
When Gu Qingwan looked at Shao Ye, she saw that the smile on the corner of his mouth had immediately froze. For the eldest princess, Shao Ye must be too complicated in his heart, because he was too guilty, so he chose not to care about the child.
"Your Majesty, the concubine will wait for you to change your clothes."
After the emperor left, Gu Qingwan slept again, and on the second day, a message came from Fengyi Palace, and there was no need to ask for peace these days.
Hearing this, almost everyone understood one thing in their hearts, thinking that it was really bad for the eldest princess to come this time. As for whether she can survive this time, it is really up to her best to know her fate.
Gu Qingwan changed her usual practice to copying Buddhist scriptures, although she knew that it didn't work, it was just a peace of mind.
And on the evening of the third day, when Gu Qingwan was copying the Buddhist scriptures, she heard the sound of the door opening outside. She thought it was Shui Bi and didn't raise her head, but when she finished copying a page and looked up, she saw Shao Ye standing there with snowflakes all over her body.
"It's snowing outside, why doesn't the emperor use an umbrella?" Gu Qingwan walked over and looked at the snowflakes on his body, and she was about to stretch out her hand to wave them down.
Shao Ye's expression was indifferent, so that people couldn't see his joy and anger, and he said disapprerovantly: "It's okay, I want to come in and see you when I pass by this Changle Palace." ”
Although Gu Qingwan felt strange in her heart, she didn't dare to say much, so she had to wait heartily. But Shao Ye waved his hand and motioned for Gong Ruhai and them all to go out.
When the two sat on the warm kang hand in hand, Gu Qingwan was first helped by Shao Ye to sit down, but Shao Ye was lying on Gu Qingwan's lap.
The two of them sat quietly like this, and Gu Qingwan saw a drop of water in the center of his eyebrows, so she reached out to wipe it away. But when he probed his forehead, he found it extremely hot.
"Your Majesty, you have a fever."
Shao Ye grabbed her palm, and then closed his eyes again, but said a little weakly: "I'm just tired, just rest for a while." ”
Seeing him not caring for himself like this, Gu Qingwan felt all kinds of bad feelings in her heart.
"Gong Ruhai, Gong Ruhai," Gu Qingwan couldn't offend him, so she wanted to call Gong Ruhai to announce the imperial doctor.
Seeing that Shao Ye's eyes were raised at this time, his eyes were sharp, and he grabbed Gu Qingwan's palm and said softly: "Were you copying Buddhist scriptures for the eldest princess just now?" ”
Gu Qingwan didn't know why he asked like this, but nodded silently.
"Then you can help me ask the Buddha for something, if there is an afterlife, don't let the eldest princess be reincarnated in this emperor's family."
Youchong is the emperor, how fortunate and unfortunate.
Gu Qingwan looked at the person lying on the bed, but she didn't know what it was like in her heart, she wanted sympathy but felt a little distressed. When a man who has always been strong in front of him, the motherhood of a woman's nature will always be brought into full play.
She turned her head to look at Shui Bi and said, "Why hasn't the hot water been brought yet?" ”
At this time, Shao Ye's cheeks were already red, but the heat in his forehead made him uncomfortable and unable to sleep, and his consciousness was no longer as clear as before.
Gu Qingwan looked at his somewhat chapped lips, then turned her head to stare at Shui Bi impatiently and said, "You go to urge, how can you serve the emperor so carelessly?" ”
It only took a few minutes for this palace person to go out to bring hot water, and Shui Bi wanted her to be patient, but looking at the master's expression, how dare she dare to do anything else.
When Shui Bi went out, Shao Ye barely opened his eyes, he looked at Gu Qingwan who was guarding next to him with an unhappy face, and reluctantly said: "Let those minions come and wait for me, it's you, don't let me give you this sickness." ”
"I don't want it," Gu Qingwan blurted out, her tone resolute to the point of being a little disrespectful.
She looked at Shao Ye's slightly trembling lips, and said with some pity: "The concubine wants to accompany the emperor, and others are not at ease when serving the emperor's concubine." ”
"Cough, cough, cough......" After Shao Ye coughed out a series of coughs, he immediately looked at Gu Qingwan and said, "Good, go out, you don't care about yourself, but also think about the child in your womb." ”
Just when the two of them were still arguing about the problem of not being able to get out, Gong Ruhai came over with the imperial doctor. Fang Hong, the envoy of the Tai Hospital, was responsible for consulting the emperor, and at this time, not only Fang Hong came, but also two hospital cows followed
"Take your master out first," Shao Ye coughed, but he still said to Gong Ruhai first.
Gong Ruhai looked at the emperor's concubine Gu who was looking pitifully at the side, and then looked at the emperor who was already struggling to sit up, and after weighing it in his heart, he still said to Gu Qingwan: "Master, let's go out first, the imperial doctor is consulting the emperor." ”
"I don't talk nonsense, why can't I watch here," Although Gu Qingwan was so kind to Gong Ruhai, her eyes were still staring at Shao Ye.
When Shao Ye saw her appearance of not getting oil and salt, he really wanted to be angry and laugh, and just as he was about to open his mouth, he coughed repeatedly.
"Can't I go out? Your Majesty, don't be angry," Gu Qingwan looked at him coughing, her face flushed, and she relented for a moment and retreated.
And the three imperial doctors were not like this Gong Ruhai who saw more of the situation when Gu Qingwan and Shao Ye got along, and they were shocked for a while and didn't dare to look up, but in their hearts, they re-evaluated this Gu concubine.
Gu Qingwan only stood at the door when she went out, and she didn't sit down, but at this time she didn't feel tired. If she doesn't feel sorry for Shao Ye, that's the real Hu Jacket. Those who ascended to the throne at a young age have not yet learned to grow up and are already responsible for this all-powerful person.
In her impression, the first emperor was not a loving father, but he was quite cold to Shao Ye or other princes. The first emperor probably only had one Concubine Chen in his heart, and he only had the son born to Concubine Chen.
If Shao Ye treats the concubines of the harem as chess pieces, but he himself is not a chess piece on this chessboard, and the front and harem are wrestling. He can't even pamper whoever he wants tonight and reward whoever he wants tomorrow, so this is not a misfortune.
Gu Qingwan didn't want Shao Ye to think too beautifully, because he would never be a beautiful person, but she knew that he always wanted to be a good emperor, so she tried her best to be a good concubine.
Don't talk about love, don't talk about love, but when this man needs him, give him a sincere comfort.
Not long after Gu Qingwan sat down, the queen took her party to the Changle Palace. The emperor was sick, and the queen naturally came.
But when she saw the queen's dress, she faintly felt a little bad in her heart. Because except for the queen, all the palace people are plain.
After Gong Ruhai reported outside, the queen entered the inner room alone Zheng
Gu Qingwan looked at the red sleeves standing next to her, and saw that there was no decoration on her head, even the most ordinary hairpin ring.
"Red-sleeved girl, I don't know ...... eldest princess" Gu Qingwan didn't ask, because she saw that Red-sleeved's eyes were moist.
"Mother, the eldest princess has gone."
The eldest princess of the Dayan Dynasty went through her short life in this winter, and Emperor Zhaoxuan mourned, gave Princess Anning the honorific title, and buried the imperial mausoleum.
Because of the matter of the eldest princess, the entire palace is immersed in a kind of silence, and this silence has a kind of blessing that is about to come
Gu Qingwan already had the body of May at this time, and Hongxi and their hearts became more and more serious, and her food was not touched by others.
Shao Ye has only stayed in the Qiyuan Hall alone these days, and even the queen doesn't dare to touch his moldy head.
And although the queen exempted Gu Qingwan and Ye Xiuyi from asking for peace, the others had to go to Fengyi Palace to ask for peace despite the heavy snow.
When Lin Ziyu asked for peace, he looked at his palm a little carelessly, while Liang Yuanrong next to him pretended to scoop up the teacup and drink tea.
And Luo Xiuhua on the other side had an indifferent look, since she had that red rash on her face in Xiyuan before, the emperor has treated her more and more like before when she came back.
Yue Chongyuan, who was on the side, glanced at the people sitting in the hall, and immediately sighed a little and said, "First of all, there are really fewer and fewer people who come here to ask for peace. ”
Although her words sounded rebellious, they were true. After Luo Qianning was reprimanded from the Zhaoyi throne, he avoided the palace, and then asked the queen for confinement for half a year. So far, it is a simple residence in this harem.
And Zhu Xiurong was personally ordered by the emperor not to go out, and everyone didn't even know the reason.
The queen was a little displeased when she heard her words: "If you are more angry, you don't have to sit and listen to my nagging today." ”
When Yue Chongyuan heard the queen's words, she didn't know that the queen was already angry, so she immediately stood up and pleaded guilty. And Rong Jieyu next to her scooped out the handkerchief and covered her mouth and nose, but everyone knew that she was snickering.
After waiting for the concubine to leave, before the queen got up, she saw another personal palace maid beside her, Yuzhu, hurriedly entering. I saw her approaching the queen's side, bowed down and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, just now the slave maid saw Gonggong go to Nalikun Palace." ”
The queen was shocked when she heard this, and countless thoughts were already turning in her mind for a while. The eldest princess died of illness, although the emperor did not have too much sadness on his face, but when the queen saw the emperor's sick face in Changle Palace that day, she knew in her heart that this Zhu Xiurong would not end well.
It's just that she didn't expect that the emperor would do it so quickly, and Gong Ruhai did it himself, which shows that the emperor must have hated her to the bone.
In the evening, it was rumored in the palace that Zhu Xiurong suddenly fell seriously ill and actually went.
Later, the emperor's will came down, and Zhu Xiurong was buried as Jieyu.
This will is really unexpected, if an ordinary palace concubine dies in this harem, even if the emperor doesn't like her, he will let her be buried in a higher position.
But this Zhu Xiurong was buried in the position of Jieyu, you must know that only the palace concubines above the concubine position can be buried in the imperial mausoleum, but all the palace concubines below the rank of concubines are buried far away from the emperor after death.
Zhu Xiurong's father also started with military exploits, although he was not as prominent as Concubine Shu's father, but he also had no military achievements. If it weren't for the eldest princess who left so suddenly, Gu Qingwan believed that she would always have a day to rise again.
But it's better to count people, Gu Qingwan was extremely pitiful when she heard that the eldest princess was leaving, no matter how ruthless the emperor was, he was still her biological father. How can you not hate, how can you easily let go of this woman who poisons her daughter every day. So even if she died, the emperor didn't want to see her.
In a few days, it was the first seven days of the eldest princess, and Gu Qingwan had copied a lot of scriptures in the past few days. Such a child is gone, and it must be just a little wave in the hearts of everyone in the palace.
Gu Qingwan felt some pity for the motherless eldest princess because of the child in her womb, so that thinking about copying the scriptures a few times was not only to comfort the eldest princess's spirit, but also to calm her own heart.
Just as Gu Qingwan was about to pass on dinner, she saw the emperor come in with Gong Ruhai. The wind and snow outside are still falling non-stop, although it is a rainy year, but if it continues like this, it is inevitable that there will be frozen bones on the road.
Gu Qingwan reached out and brushed the snowflakes on the emperor's shoulders, and helped untie the cloak on his body.
"It's so cold, just eat some hot pot to warm your stomach, does the emperor think it's okay?" When Gu Qingwan raised her face, the candlelight next to her illuminated her cheeks, and the tenderness in her eyes also shone into the emperor's heart
"Let's follow the concubine," Shao Ye's expression was still a little cowardly, but it looked much better than a few days ago.
The two sat hand in hand on the soft couch, whether it was the earth dragon or the stove next to them, the whole room was warm, and because Gu Qingwan was now heavy, soft cushions were placed wherever she sits.
As soon as Shao Ye sat down, he felt extremely comfortable, and he couldn't help but relax.
"You are used to being a person who will enjoy it, and I look at these palaces, which is the most comfortable place for you." Shao Ye stretched out his hand and fished Gu Qingwan over, and the two were talking together.
"It's just that I ordered a few more pots of charcoal and some soft cushions, which provoked the emperor like this. If the emperor likes it, just take care of the concubine, why bother beating around the bush like this. Gu Qingwan also replied jokingly.
Shao Ye listened to the whistling wind outside, and was in a trance for a while.
Gu Qingwan raised her eyes slightly, snuggled up to him and whispered, "What is the emperor thinking?" ”
"I think it's really a big snow outside." Shao Ye's words stopped here.
Gu Qingwan looked at him, and thought about taking the topic elsewhere, so she said: "Although the snow is a good year, but this heavy snow has been falling for so long, if it is a poor family, how can there be so much silver carbon for the winter." ”
Shao Ye looked down at Gu Qingwan steadily, only looking at her a little hairy, Gu Qingwan was just thinking about whether she had a wrong sentence, or if Shao Ye didn't like the harem concubines to comment on current affairs at will.
"All the harem concubines in this harem have grown up pampered, and this is the first time I've heard someone thinking about poverty." When Shao Ye said this, there was a bit of sarcasm in his tone.
Gu Qingwan didn't know how to follow his words for a while, so she had to be obediently silenced.
After a while, Shao Ye seemed to say to himself and said to her again: "Jing Zhaoyin should indeed be asked to arrange this matter of resisting the wind and snow, and this blizzard will not stop for a while." ”
When it was time to go to bed, Gu Qingwan thought about the fact that the emperor came to sleep two days ago, not only did she not get enough rest, but she was more tired than doing exercise on weekdays, and the guilt in her heart couldn't be eliminated.
When she euphemistically proposed that she was now a pregnant woman, and when there were a lot of things at night, Shao Ye hugged her without saying a word. Even when Gu Qingwan was so frightened that she hugged his neck to death, it was really a bad thing to do this kind of princess hug to a pregnant woman.
The two went to bed, but they couldn't sleep for a while.
If this emperor insists on going his own way, she really can't scoop him.
But Shao Ye just said in a dumb voice: "Qingwan." ”
Gu Qingwan was bewitched by such a suppressed hoarse voice, and such a seductive sex appeal immediately bewitched her heart. So she really did what the emperor asked. When Gu Qingwan fell asleep, she seemed to hear someone whispering in her ear, but the voice was so light that she only heard the word daughter.
The women of this harem can't live without a boiling word, and the queen wants to boil the emperor to death and become the queen mother herself. But even if she wants to be the queen mother, the most important thing is to have a son of her own.
Queen Zhang looked at herself in the mirror, and the corners of her eyes seemed to have some fine lines. She couldn't help sighing, and asked Grandma Sun behind her in a complaining tone: "Nurse, are you and I old?" ”
