Just when she was playing, Princess Yun moved to Yao Chuxi's side and stared at her belly.

"What are you looking at?" The emperor asked aloud.

If he didn't ask, I was afraid that Yao Chuxi would still be bent on the toy.

"Father, is there really a child in Yao Niangniang's belly?"

This question also aroused the interest of the second prince and others, and they also came over to take a look.

This situation made Yao Chuxi a little unable to cope with it, so he had to smile and say, "In a few months, the child will be able to come out to be your companion." ”

"Really?" The second prince raised his head, and when he heard that the child would come out, his eyes seemed to glow, "Is that a boy or a girl?" ”

"It's... I don't know," Yao Chuxi muttered.

"A child is so big, won't he break his belly if he stretches his legs and feet?" Yun Jing also leaned over and asked.

This really makes Yao Chuxi have two big heads.

"You'll know when Yao Niangniang gives birth." The emperor came over at some point, stretched out his hand and hugged Princess Yunyu, "Ningshou Palace has already set up lunch, it's too late to get cold." ”

Yao Chuxi sighed, got up and pulled the second prince with one hand and Princess Yunjing with the other, and the emperor not only held Princess Yunyi, but also led Princess Yunjing with his left hand.

It's not a common sight.

It can even be said that for the first time like this, even the palace people in the Taihe Hall opened their eyes wide.

The Taihe Hall is not far from the Ningshou Palace, and several people walked over together, and did not pass on the royal roll and the sedan chair.

"The concubine greets the emperor!" Concubine De seems to have been waiting in front of the palace gate for a long time.

Yao Chuxi also asked Concubine De for peace.

"Go in and say." The emperor handed Princess Yun Yuan in his arms to the palace maid Shuhuai, and everyone walked to the main hall together.

Passing through the spacious courtyard paved with bluestone bricks, and walking up two steps all the way to the front of the hall, the palace people who were busy in and out also stopped at this moment, and stood obediently and hung their heads.

There is a faint aroma in the hall, if there is nothing, it is not like the graceful but unsmelled smell of incense, nor is it like the faint fragrance when the flowers bloom, it is more like a disc of fruit placed in the box, take a deep breath before going to bed, and instantly a fresh and natural fruit fragrance will come to the nose.

Today's lunch seems to be much more sumptuous than that of Yingxue Pavilion, Yao Chuxi thinks that there may be several masters at this moment, so Yuan Shaoyu made a lot of dishes.

A large bowl of fish head soup is in the middle, with some chopped coriander floating here and there on the soup noodles, next to a plate of hot braised pork and red plum beads, and a plate of fragrant steamed pork and fried dumplings.

The dumplings are filled with shrimp, and the sides are fried golden brown, and in some places they are brown, so it looks like they taste good.

There are only three plates of vegetarian dishes, a plate of cold cauliflower, a plate of cucumber and white mushrooms, and a vegetarian stewed soup.

Closer to Yao Chuxi's position is a plate of fried fish, this fish was eaten by Yao Chuxi when Fang entered the palace last time, first marinated to taste and then fried in the oil pot, it tastes delicate and fragrant.

Princess Yun Yu's teeth haven't grown too much to eat that kind of crispy and hard food, so near her is a plate of soft pig's trotters.

It seems that today's lunch is very particular, and it should be that Concubine De deliberately did so.

Princess Yunjing already knows how to use chopsticks, Yao Chuxi took a closer look, the two silver chopsticks between her fingers were very stable, and she didn't delay eating vegetables.

After serving the few little masters, the eunuch retreated, and the emperor served Yao Chuxi a bowl of fish soup and a bowl of Concubine De.

"This palace has borrowed my sister's light." Concubine De said with a light smile.

The emperor didn't say anything, he also served himself a bowl, and put a fried dumpling on the plate.

Adhering to the rule of not talking when eating, several people didn't make a sound, Princess Yun Yuan ate slowly, and she was the last to use up, and after she used it, she came to the palace to withdraw the food.

"Niangniang's Ningshou Palace is really beautiful." After the meal, the children were still playing, while Yao Chuxi and Concubine De sat on the chairs and talked.

After not seeing her for a while, Yao Chuxi felt that Concubine De was becoming more and more energetic, as if she had spirits.

Thinking about it in the future, Concubine De has always been beautiful, her beauty is luxurious and generous, like a delicate big peony flower, but although the peony flower is beautiful, it is too formal, and now it seems that she is more like a budding half-open moon season, full of spirit and vitality.

It may be because the second prince has also arrived in Ningshou Palace now, so that Concubine De and her whole person are in good spirits, you can see these two children when you close your eyes at night and open your eyes in the morning, can you not be in a good mood?

I heard that Concubine De treats these two children very well, and it is better to be biological than biological.

"The palaces in the East Palace are all the same, and I can't say which one is good-looking and which one is not." Concubine De smiled faintly, "After my sister gives birth to the dragon heir, I will also move into this big palace to live, and when the time comes, it will not be worse than Ningshou Palace." ”

"The concubine doesn't dare to compare with the mother." Yao Chuxi said with a slight bow.

She didn't know if she wanted to move into the East Palace, but the only thing she knew was that no matter whether she was born or a man or a woman, it was impossible to live in Yingxue Pavilion, so it didn't depend on her whether to move or not, it just depended on when she gave birth to a child and when she moved.

The emperor went to the back room to see the folds, and there was only one person left in the palace, Concubine De.

"Mother." Shuyuan came in from outside, bowed and said, "Lin Jieyu from Juning Palace is here." ”

"What is she here for?"

Shuyuan shook his head, "I heard that I can't rest assured that Princess Yun Yuan, so I came to take a look." ”

Concubine De smiled: "The palace and the emperor are here, why is she worried?" Let's let her in. ”

The purpose of Lin Jieyu's trip is not only understood by Concubine De, but also by Yao Chuxi.

How old is Princess Yunyi? Not to mention that Concubine De and the emperor are here, there are more than a dozen palace people and two nurses here, and the princess will have a group of people to follow her when she takes a step, where is there anything to worry about?

It seems that this drunkard doesn't mean to drink, Lin Jieyu is coming to the side.

Lin Jieyu has always been demure and gentle, stroking her face or coughing twice at every turn, this kind of woman is very easy to be favored in the palace, Lin Jieyu was favored because of this, the emperor cherished her poor health, so he pampered her.

But later I found out that everything was disguised by her, and I didn't love her anymore.

Yao Chuxi didn't know about this, because before the death of Shu Cairen in Lanyue Pavilion, the emperor had summoned her to accompany her to the Taihe Hall for three consecutive days, which shows that the emperor is a soft-hearted person, thinking about letting Shu Cairen live for a while longer and leave her some thoughts.

Concubine De remembered that the emperor had just ascended the throne for about a year, and Lin Jieyu was almost there at that time, and she always spoke softly, and she didn't seem to have heard her raise her voice in her impression, just such a person, she was indeed favored by the emperor for a while.

It's right to think about it, a weak woman like Lin Jieyu, men will probably have a desire to protect.

"Concubine to Concubine De Niangniang?" Lin Jieyu saluted after entering the hall.

Looking at her outfit carefully, she only felt that it was eye-catching and fresh, and it was no different from Yao Chuxi's body.

The tender green green lotus embroidered skirt is embroidered with a large piece of lotus leaves, and the upper body is wearing a green rosette Qiao's placket palace dress, with two willow leaves on the head, and the tassels are very long, almost touching the shoulders.

Concubine De thought to herself that this Lin Jieyu had a feeling of being in good spirits, but fortunately, Lin Jieyu was not bad, even if she had given birth to a child, her figure was still so good, compared to Yao Meiren, who is now pregnant with Liujia, it is not a complete loss, but it is also half a catty.

"Princess Yun Yuan is here, with the palace and the emperor in charge, what are you worried about?" Concubine De asked straight to the point, raised her hand to signal her to get up, and the palace maid moved a four-legged stool and put it on the thick Chu Jiang peony carpet, and helped Lin Jieyu to sit down.

"There's nothing worrying about concubines." Lin Jieyu smiled lightly, and her voice was still so soft and beautiful, "I'm just worried that Yun Yuan is young, and then she is noisy with the mother and the emperor, so I came to ask for a few words." ”

After hearing this, Yao Chuxi glanced at Concubine De and knew that she was a little displeased, but there was no place for her to speak here, so she had to shut up.

"This palace is now raising a prince and a princess, but it is even harder than Lin Jieyu." Concubine De calmly picked up the saucer, gently flicked the lid of the teacup, knocked on the edge of the tea, and continued, "If you want to tell when is a good time, why do you think about it now?" Isn't it that Lin Jieyu has a bad upbringing, Princess Yun Yuan, and she has to follow her all the time, right? ”

"That's not what the concubine meant..."Lin Jieyu only felt that her body was heavy, and she didn't dare to sit on the stool completely, nor did she dare to get up rashly.

She thought that the emperor would be in the palace, but who would have thought that there were only Concubine De and Yao Chuxi in the palace?

"And what do you mean?" Concubine De took a sip of tea, and then said, "Now you have also seen it, this Ning Shou Palace up and down the circle of palace people, will definitely ensure that Princess Yun Yuan is healthy, as for the upbringing, if you are not competent, Jieyu, anyway, there are already two here in the palace, don't care about adding one more." ”

The meaning of these words was very clear, Yao Chuxi understood it at once, this was slapping Lin Jieyu's face fiercely.

looked at her and found that she was blushing with her head down, and her palms were slightly together, she should be angry.

"The concubines can't say that they are worried about Yun Yuan, the main thing is that several princesses and princes are here today, for fear of disturbing your tranquility, since the concubine thinks it is okay, the concubines have all retired."

Concubine De raised her head slightly, didn't say anything, just stared at Lin Jieyu's back until she walked out of the gate of Ningshou Palace.

Then he picked up the teacup and took another sip, "She is still the same, always thinking about seeing the emperor, but she doesn't think about whether the emperor wants to see her." ”

"How?" Yao Chuxi asked.

"In the past, she always showed weakness, as if she dragged this sick body all day long, if she wasn't so weak, I am afraid that she would have been folded in the hands of the Chen family."

When he heard this person after the abolition of the Chen family, Yao Chuxi tilted his head slightly, very serious.
