Concubine Wan looked at Xiaozhuang and said, "The concubine is guilty, but it is up to the empress dowager to deal with it." ”

Xiaozhuang smiled at this moment: "Ruobing, don't scare the concubines, Concubine Wan, why don't you send the letter on behalf of the inner supervisor, but let your palace maid go?" ”

Concubine Wan said: "Since the concubine entered the palace, she has been deeply immersed in the emperor's grace, thinking about how to repay her day and night, and recently she heard that she had framed her father for disobeying the holy order, and she was very worried, and she knew that the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, so she wrote a letter and ordered Xiaoyue to send it immediately to relieve her father's auxiliary government. ”

Ruobing handed over the letter to Xiaozhuang, Xiaozhuang looked at it, laughed, and said: "Ao Shaobao is loyal and tries his best to assist the government, which one dares to talk about it in the future, and will be severely punished; In addition, there is no need to worry about it in the future, all such family letters, can be delivered by the palace maid, if you miss your relatives, you can call your family members into the palace on the New Year's Day. Concubine Wan is loyal and commendable, and there is no fault. ”

After that, he ordered Ruobing to read the letter to everyone. It probably means that since the son entered the palace, he has been deeply favored by the emperor, and the time is excellent, and he is especially relieved by his father, but the son has nothing to do and is unable to repay the grace of the saint, so he only asks his father to be loyal to the government and repay the favor on behalf of the son.

Xiaozhuang immediately ordered someone to send the letter to the Shaobao Mansion, and rewarded one or two, in order to praise his daughter-rearing method, Ao Bai was overjoyed, and understood his daughter's thoughts.

Although Concubine Wan was designed by Concubine Chen, fortunately she was careful and did not hurt the emperor's favor, but Concubine Chen was dusty with her nose, dark and hateful. After this incident, everyone understood in their hearts that Concubine Chen was a domineering person, knew the means of filial piety and Ruobing, and understood that Concubine Wan was not a cow or sheep to be slaughtered, and they knew that they should be more cautious from now on.

On this day, Concubine Yi's January ban period had arrived, and Shangguan Lan'er came to Yanxi Palace early in the morning and ordered someone to bring some supplements to eat and money to take care of her daily needs. Although she is a concubine and is also rewarded by the emperor, Concubine Yi is not from a rich and prosperous family, and there is not much money, and the rewards cannot be bought and sold.

Shangguan Lan'er said: "My sister's suffering is due to being too favored and hated, but fortunately, this matter has not hurt your roots, and the emperor has his own thoughtfulness. ”

Concubine Yi nodded and said: "Sister Lao has bothered about this matter, since entering the palace, my sister has taken care of her, and a few days ago she took care of me and took care of the huge turmoil, but let me repay my sister." ”

Shangguan Lan'er said: "You and my sisters, what to report or not to report, in the deep palace, there are all dependents, the background of each concubine is extremely deep, Concubine Zhao and Concubine Chen are all from the Niu Hulu clan, the queen is from the Hesheri clan, and the concubine Wan is from the Guarjia clan, which one is not a deep family origin and the emperor's grace is vast, and you are like duckweed, naturally someone will make a fuss about you, but it is a common thing in the palace." A few days ago, the matter of the peacock gold and jade hairpin, nine times out of ten, was done by Concubine Chen's slave Ziling, who bought off your personal palace maid Yue'e and eunuch Xiaoyingzi, and then blamed you, these two have already been transferred out of your Yanxi Palace and went to Jingren Palace to work at Concubine Wan. This matter has been revealed, and I have a plan in my heart, so that it will be revealed in its original form and my sister's reputation. ”

It was day and night, Shangguan Lan'er secretly told the emperor, asked the father-in-law and two eunuchs to help, and hid it early next to a pavilion rockery, and after a while, I saw that Ziling staggered to this place, and after a while, the palace maid Yue'e came here, grabbed Ziling and said: "Sister, how is your body, you are beaten like this, why don't you protect you, you and I do the peacock gold and jade hairpin for her wholeheartedly, and the concubine Wan, the scheming is so deep, it is not leaky, but the sister is folded." ”

Ziling said: "Sister, don't be like this, who makes me a hard-working person, what if I don't serve my master in the deep palace." What's been going on with Concubine Wan over there? ”

Yue'e said: "Recently, Concubine Wan is nothing special, sister, if it weren't for this little money, would you take such a big risk?" While he was talking, Gonggong Xi suddenly rushed out from the side of the rockery, caught the two of them, and immediately sent them to the Shen Criminal Division. Take the confession and wait for the emperor to appear the next day.

The next day, Kangxi went down to the court, and the eunuch in charge of Yikun Palace came to report that Concubine Chen was sick, and then announced that the imperial doctor immediately rushed to Yikun Palace.

Concubine Yang Yang said: "Your Majesty, somehow, I haven't thought about food for a few days, maybe I have a bad stomach, but it's not in the way." ”

After the imperial doctor finished taking the pulse, he knelt down and hurriedly said: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, the old minister said hello to the emperor, Concubine Chen, it's a happy pulse!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was overjoyed, and Kangxi was even more physically and mentally excited from the inside out, looking at Concubine Chen's eyebrows, this is the first person in Kangxi's harem to give birth to an heir. Immediately instructed Gonggong Xi to deploy palace maids and eunuchs to serve the maids of Yikun Palace.

Concubine Chen said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to be like this, the concubines are not so expensive, but the belly is the emperor's flesh and blood, and the concubines will take care of themselves." ”

Kangxi said: "Concubine Chen, you will cultivate your body quietly, and if you have any need, you will go to Gonggong Xi to deploy, why don't you see your personal palace maid serving?" ”

Concubine Chen said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the palace maid Ziling is out of the palace on an errand, I think it will be time to return to the palace in a moment, the concubine has been served by Ziling since she was a child, and she is really inseparable from her, especially at this time." After that, he glanced at his father-in-law.

For Concubine Chen, this is another good thing, that is, Ziling escaped, she knows better, this is all because of her stomach, at this moment, the emperor will naturally not be angry with her because of Ziling's matter, and it will be over after a long time.

Poor Concubine Yi had just had the opportunity to severely punish the persecutors of the troublemakers, so she covered up the past as an understatement, and was diluted by this dragon heir.

Kangxi took Concubine Chen's hand and said with a smile: "Concubine Chen, in the future, I will leave the purchase to her, let Ziling serve well, and taking care of you is the biggest thing in the harem, hahaha." "Concubine Chen is extremely proud.

While he was talking, there was a eunuch from Kunning Palace who came to find Grandpa Xi, and for a while, Grandpa Xi whispered a few words in Kangxi's ear, Kangxi was first shocked and then delighted, laughed, and said to Concubine Chen: "Concubine Chen, I'll tell you good news again, double happiness is coming, and Queen Hesheri is also pregnant with a dragon heir for me, so you can rest for a while, and I will also go to see the queen." ”

Concubine Chen said with a smile: "Congratulations to the emperor, it's really a double happiness, great, the concubine went with the emperor to visit the queen's sister, and by the way, I asked the queen to say goodbye." ”

Kangxi smiled: "Concubine Chen, no need, you are still good at giving birth, be careful of the fetal gas." ”

After that, he rushed to Kunning Palace to visit the queen. Concubine Chen's mood fell directly into the abyss from the sky, she looked at Kangxi's departing figure with hatred, and said secretly in her heart: "Hesheri, is it possible that you are also against me, share favor with me, and take the emperor away from me alive!" ”

When everyone got the news, according to the rules, they all went to visit the queen first, and then visited Concubine Chen, and all day long, Concubine Chen was absent-minded, always thinking that it was Queen Hesheri who robbed her of the limelight and favor.

The palace is very lively, the concubine is pregnant with a dragon fetus at the same time, which is extremely rare, even the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang is a rare joy, and at the same time Xiaozhuang announced: "The queen is pregnant with a dragon heir, do not overwork, and Zhao Guifei assists in the affairs of the six palaces." ”
