Chapter 57: The Aftermath (3)
Because of Empress Xiao's affairs, Tuoba Hong was in an unusually bad mood, and he was in a hurry to thoroughly investigate Changxin Palace, and he didn't recruit concubines for a few days. Purple >
The queen's loss of power was like a vast mansion toppled, which caught people off guard. Concubine Jing naturally became the hottest person in the palace, and gradually there were even rumors that "the queen is afraid that she will be deposed for her crimes, and Concubine Jing will enter the middle palace just around the corner." And Hui Concubine Lin Yuan here, because Ye Liangyuan, who was also pregnant, was implicated by the queen and was disliked by the emperor, and the remaining Hui Concubine was even more eye-catching.
Concubine Hui and Concubine Jing both live in Huayang Palace, so that the prosperity of Huayang Palace is better than that of January. The grand occasion of Huayang Palace has the posture of overpowering Changxin Palace to become the master of the harem.
In such a turbulent time, Ye Liangyuan is about to give birth. The harem became more and more restless.
Ye Liangyuan has moved out of Changxin Palace since the empress was grounded, and the emperor's will is that the queen is seriously ill and cannot take care of Ye Liangyuan's pregnancy, and Ye Liangyuan's residence in Changxin Palace is next to Xie's family, and Xie is given death, which is very unlucky.
Although the reason is high-sounding, anyone with a discerning eye can see clearly that the emperor just doesn't want Empress Xiao to have the opportunity to take over this child.
Ye Liangyuan moved to a small attic not far from Jianzhang Palace according to the emperor's wishes, called "Tinglan Xiaozhu". Although it is not one of the 12 signs of the East and West, the place is exquisite and luxurious, and the corners are good, so it is not a grievance against her. At this time, Concubine Jing was in power, and Ye's fetus was naturally handed over to Concubine Jing to take care of.
The production of the Ye family is the first major event to be done since Concubine Jing first took charge of the palace.
Whether it is done well or not is crucial to her future.
Concubine Jing was devoted to this matter. There were still more than ten days before Ye Liangyuan's due date, so she ordered the palace people to build a delivery room in Tinglan Xiaozhu and arrange for the midwife. In fact, when the concubine is pregnant, she will assign medical women to serve from the beginning, and they are skilled in medical skills and skilled in delivering babies, which can be said to be properly arranged. But Concubine Jing was especially cautious, and specially invited the elderly midwives to come, in case those medical girls were young and inexperienced.
Ye Liangyuan's attachment to the queen is a well-known fact in the palace, and because of the queen's accident, the emperor also snubbed Ye Liangyuan. Speaking of which, Ye Xiuxin is very pitiful, the Queen of the Big Tree behind her happened to have an accident, even if the emperor is precious to the piece of meat in her stomach, he will inevitably have a lot of mustard for her in his heart, and he will not like her. The harem concubines were so jealous of her humble background but fortunately pregnant, when they saw that the emperor was cold to her, they didn't know how happy they were, and they rushed to practice her.
Soon after there were rumors in the harem that the Dao Ye clan and the queen got along closely, I am afraid that it was also related to the poisoning of Changle Palace.
Concubine Jing was as careful as a hair, afraid that Ye Liangyuan would think too much during pregnancy, so she personally came to comfort her. Later, during a morning province, Concubine Jing spoke in front of the concubines in the palace:
"The Ye family is about to give birth, and now she is the most expensive person in our harem. This palace knows that some of you in public are jealous of the Ye family in your hearts, and you are still gossiping behind your back to slander the Ye family, and you are squeezing her everywhere. Now this palace will tell you that if you let this palace hear similar words again, this palace will definitely deal with her according to the palace rules to set an example. ”
This is the first time that Concubine Jing has been stern in front of everyone.
Although she is weak and not as graceful and majestic as the queen, she is meticulous in her words and deeds, and she is convincing. Now she is beating the concubines, and everyone claims that they are, and they dare not disobey.
After this time, there was really a lot less gossip about Ye Liangyuan in the harem.
On May 26, when Concubine Jing was inviting the concubines to listen to Huangmei Opera in Huayang Palace, Ye Liangyuan began to suffer in labor in the dormitory.
Concubine Jing changed color when she heard this, got up and put on makeup and ordered to go to Ye's place.
The concubines got up one after another and followed Concubine Jing, but Concubine Jing ordered everyone to go back to the palace separately and did not have to go together. There have always been rules in the harem of Daqin, the palace concubines should get along harmoniously, and when the pregnant concubines give birth, everyone will pretend to be concerned and go to guard, if any one does not go, it will be considered by the emperor to be unkind-hearted and not care about the sisters.
When Empress Xiao was in power, this rule had always been followed in the harem, but now that Concubine Jing was here, she made an exception first.
When the concubines heard her say this, they were at first surprised and puzzled, but then they all rejoiced in their hearts, and hurriedly withdrew from the good way. Living in the palace, everyone screams at their sisters and sisters, but in fact, how can there be a trace of affection behind their backs? It's a blessing not to make enemies. And every time a palace concubine is pregnant and gives birth, everyone has to work hard to pretend, and often stand outside all day. Who wants to suffer this sin?
What's more, accidents during childbirth are endless, and Tuoba Hiroshi has several children who are full-term a few years ago, and they have trouble during childbirth. As soon as this accident happened, the concubines present were inevitably implicated, and finally made people panic. If that dirty water is splashed on you again, the consequences are enough for you to not be able to turn over in this life.
Therefore, the last thing a harem woman likes to do is accompany other women to have children.
In the past, there was no way to hinder the rules, but now there is a Jing Concubine Niangniang who understands the righteousness and orders to break this rule.
None of the concubines said much, they all hid their joy in their hearts, and secretly praised Concubine Jing for her wisdom and generosity.
At this time, Concubine Jing saw that the group of women had dispersed, and she didn't have time to rub it off, so she hurriedly took a sedan chair to Tinglan Xiaozhu. The palace people at the bottom are fast, and this time they have come to report to her for the second time, the situation on the Dao Ye side is fine, and they have just entered the delivery room, and they haven't started yet.
Concubine Jing is a person who has come over, and she knows that the process of this woman giving birth is not simple, and it will take two or three hours for the labor pains alone, and then when the amniotic fluid is really broken, she will have to wait for most of the day. But she didn't dare to slack off, even if Ye Liangyuan gave birth for three days and three nights, she, the head of the harem, would not be allowed to accompany her for three days and three nights?
After a while, they arrived at Tinglan Xiaozhu, and the palace maids around the Ye family had already come to welcome Concubine Jing's sedan chair. Concubine Jing went straight into the main hall and asked Imperial Doctor Zhao, who was kneeling on the side, "How is Liangyuan doing now?" ”
Imperial Doctor Wu was the imperial doctor who was pointed out to Ye Xiuxin by the queen at the beginning, although he later went to serve Lin Yuan, and the emperor saw that there were not enough people and pointed out a Lu imperial doctor to Ye's family, but Imperial Doctor Wu still came to check Ye's pulse from time to time, and he did his best.
Imperial Doctor Wu lowered his head, arched his hand and replied to Concubine Jing: "Little Master Ye's mother and son are healthy, and now it is a smooth delivery. ”
Concubine Jing breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this, and said, "That's good, God bless." Saying that, he sat down on the main seat, and said with a relaxed expression: "The children in the palace have always had many disasters and disasters, and the Ye family also experienced the scourge of witchcraft at the beginning and almost died. But she will be blessed if she doesn't die, and she wants to be able to give birth safely this time. ”
Imperial Doctor Wu didn't say much, saluted Concubine Jing and turned around to take care of Ye Liangyuan in the inner room. The palace maid beside Concubine Jing smiled and said, "With Niangniang sitting here, Little Master Ye is naturally stable." At the beginning, Ye Xiaozhu had been living in our Huayang Palace, and later moved to Changxin Palace, but Ye Xiaozhu was pregnant but was pregnant in Huayang Palace. I think it's our Huayang Palace feng shui. ”
The words of this palace maid are quite arrogant, the feng shui of Huayang Palace is good, and the feng shui of Changxin Palace is ...... But now that the emperor is not there, Concubine Jing has no taboos, and answered with a smile: "This is also the blessing of the Ye family itself." When Chang and Concubine Guiguan were pregnant again, everyone said that she was the most blessed, but in the end, she had a difficult birth and almost had an accident. Therefore, this blessing cannot be concluded until the end......"
Before he finished speaking, the curtain in the inner room was lifted, and a woman dressed in a rose-purple stacked pattern and large-sleeved palace dress burst out. If it weren't for the fact that this woman's big belly looked a little bloated, her posture could almost be called as agile as a flying fairy. She held a gold-woven beauty ivory-handled palace fan, shook it lightly, and smiled at Concubine Jing: "Concubine Jing seems to be talking something funny?" The concubine didn't hear it clearly, but I can ask the mother to say it again? ”
Wei Mizhuang looked at her underbeaten face and panicked in his heart. I have to say that this Hui Concubine Tianzi is worthy of her reputation, and in terms of posture alone, she can't compare to Hui Concubine, let alone Chang and Guifei.
But what kind of wind did this concubine smoke today, she was pregnant, and she stayed in the scarlet building to raise her, but ran to Tinglan Xiaozhu to make trouble.
And the palace people in Tinglan Xiaozhu didn't even inform them in advance that Hui Concubine was here......
Concubine Jing's fingernails were ripped on her cuffs, and she said angrily, "Why is Concubine Hui here?" Bengong Fang is talking about Ye's family, afraid that her birth will not go well. ”
Lin Yuan sat down on the chair beside her with a smile, not treating Concubine Jing as an outsider at all, and said with a smile on the corner of her lips: "It turns out that Concubine Jing is caring about Ye Liangyuan." No wonder Niangniang mentioned Changhe Guifei just now, and said that Changhe Guifei was not blessed, and finally had a difficult birth...... Well, it's a good thing that you're worried about the Ye family, but Changhe's concubine is higher than you, so don't talk about her casually in the future. ”
Concubine Jing was so angry when she heard this, her face turned white. She was originally an elegant and restrained woman, and she felt that her endurance was strong enough, but since she met the Lin family, she was always provoked by her to want to jump to her feet. But I can't ...... again.
If it were ordinary, Concubine Jing would never say that the concubine was not in front of people, and she would be talked about. Seeing that the Ye family is in chaos here, and there are no outsiders, it is not taboo. But who would have thought that the Lin family was hiding in the house.
Lin Yuan looked at her face, and secretly mocked in her heart, Concubine Jing's words were not finished yet, what she really wanted to say was that Concubine Changhe was unlucky, not only had a difficult birth, but also ended up leaving the palace.
I'm afraid that in the eyes of Concubine Jing, whether it is Empress Xiao or Concubine Changhe, sooner or later she will be trampled underfoot.
Without waiting for Concubine Jing's interface, Lin Yuan preemptively said: "Concubine Jing is knowledgeable and reasonable, and she is in charge of the harem, so Fang Cai's words must be unintentional." ”
The best way to deal with Concubine Hui is to ignore her. Concubine Jing glanced at her, beckoned the palace maid and said, "You can go and see Ye Liangyuan's situation again." ”
