Qige held his stomach up, pacing back and forth in the room, and every time he walked, he was extraordinarily gentle and slow, for fear of shaking the fetus in his belly, so he was very careful. And the clear and loving smile on her face is not impurities at all, clear like the morning dew on the lotus leaves in summer, crystal clear and shiny.

Linglan walked in with a smile on her face: "The Queen Mother has just returned to the palace from the Palace of Nourishing Heart, and the emperor's imperial chariot is coming to our Yonghe Palace." Is it okay for the slave to wait for the little master to change his clothes and prepare for the ride? ”

"The emperor is here?" Qiqige's eyes were full of joy: "It's not necessary to change clothes, but it's inconvenient for me to go out during pregnancy, so it's good to be so lightly faint." stroked the bead flowers on his head, and his character always felt a little fancy: "Linglan, take off the flying butterfly play hibiscus that presses the sideburns, and give me the good-looking pomegranate hairpin." ”

"Yes." Linglan also moved quickly, and neatly brought the hairpin for the sea nobles. "Pomegranates have many sons and many blessings, and the emperor likes it for a while."

"So far, it doesn't matter if the emperor likes me or not, as long as he can like the child in my womb, it's a blessing." Qi Qige gently stroked his soft abdomen, for fear that the child would be wronged a little. "All I can count on is him."

"Little master, don't worry too much, how can the emperor not love his child. What's more, although the emperor treats you as close as the queen, he has never given up in the end, has he? The slave maid heard from the old man in the family that this child was a bridge between the two of them. The emperor likes children, and he will inevitably be more and more kind to the little master, you can rest assured. ”

"I hope so." Qiqi smiled comfortably, and before the words fell, he could already hear the sound of steady footsteps outside the door recently. "Quick, Linglan, follow me."

Hongli instructed Li Yu not to spread the word, so as not to startle the Hai nobles who had a safe birth. Wuzi walked outside the door of the inner room, but saw the beautiful woman come out.

"The concubine greets the emperor, and the emperor is blessed." Her movements are very light, but even if it is a small movement like bending her knees, she is cautious.

"You are pregnant, so you don't have to be polite. What's more, this is in your palace again. Hongli was full of smiles, and affectionately held up the hands of the Hai nobles: "Empress Fang Cai looked at me later, and when she said that you were unwell during pregnancy, I couldn't rest assured, so I came over to take a look." But do you have a bad appetite? ”

"Let the emperor worry, the concubines are just happy from time to time, and it will be good to eat some sour plums, sour dates or something." His gentle and virtuous appearance was a little different from usual, with a hint of love between his eyebrows, and the whole person seemed to suddenly become dignified. It's no longer the unflattering look of Mao Mao who is stunned and has no one in his eyes.

This change made Hongli feel very comfortable, after all, only dignified and sensible is what he likes women to look like. What's more, Hai Guiren is pregnant, so he should be a little more stable. "Once upon a time, you were by my side, often a little more willful, acting like a child who had not grown up, although you were playful but a little less calm. Now I look at you again, but it's very different.

Since you became pregnant, your temperament has changed a bit, which reassures me a lot. I remember that your position was still sealed when you entered the palace, and when the imperial heir is born on the next day, I will canonize you as a concubine. Only by being the lord of this Yonghe Palace can we manage the affairs of the first palace justifiably. Don't be awkward at every turn, can you? ”

As he spoke, Hongli gently shaved Qiqige's cheek, and finally landed his hand on her abdomen.

"Thank you for your grace." This position has been looking forward to it for a long time, and today with the emperor's words, she is finally relieved. But I am afraid of careful scrutiny of everything, once I have passed my mind and thought about it seriously, I am still uncomfortable after all.

In the past, when he was in the house, the emperor's favorite Sakura Gege was such a wanton, arrogant and playful woman. And look at Concubine Xian again, isn't she also a tough mind with a strong temperament and would rather be straight than bend? And that Hui Guifei, how is it that she is not arrogant, but this arrogance is hidden under the benefits of suppleness, so it is not particularly obvious.

In this way, it's not that the emperor doesn't like women with sex, but he doesn't like himself.

For women he didn't like, the emperor had to ask them to be the same kind of supple. At least when you see it, when you accompany it, you can feel the supple mood you like, and that's enough.

After thinking about it, he was reluctant to be more serious, and bowed his head respectfully and said: "The concubines were always willful and arrogant in the past, which annoyed the emperor, and the concubines were not good." He rested his hand on the back of the emperor's hand, and said softly: "But since I had this child, the concubines are grateful to the emperor and God, and they dare not act arbitrarily anymore and insult the longen of this heavenly family." I don't dare to mess around anymore, I just ask for God's blessing, so that I can add a little brother to the emperor, and the concubines are convenient and willing. ”

Hongli held his hand and said with peace of mind: "It's best if you think so." ”

"If you say that you are hungry for a while, the emperor will also be thirsty. Linglan, go and offer a dragon well. "His thoughtful appearance is not lost to the concubine who is known for her meticulousness and thoughtfulness.

"Sour plum juice is the best way to quench my thirst, and I can smell the fragrance." Hongli smiled lightly: "Longjing is enough, I always feel that I can't taste anything when I drink it every day." Just give me a bowl of sour plum juice. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Its character made color, and Linglan retreated willingly.

Hongli remembered something, raised his eyebrows and said, "In a few days, I will go out of the palace and go for a walk outside the gate." You have a body, and it is inconvenient to accompany you, so stay in the palace and raise the baby with peace of mind. ”

"Yes." Qi Qige first responded, and then said: "The concubine heard the internal affairs office mention this matter." The emperor has been on the throne for five years, and it is natural to worship the ancestors. One is that the emperor is filial piety, and it is reasonable to go to worship his ancestors outside the customs in person, and the other is that since the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the children of the Eight Banners have become richer and richer, and their lives are inevitably more extravagant, which also reminds them not to forget their roots. ”

Comforted in his heart, Hongli held his hands and put them in his palms: "Your words are very knowledgeable. The Empress had reminded me of this. ”

"The emperor went out to worship his ancestors, and the queen should be by his side, although the concubines could not accompany him, his heart was with the emperor and queen." Qi Qige stared at the man in front of him with a smile, such an intimate and warm scene, there have not been a few times since entering the palace. How can you teach her not to be sentimental. "But I don't know if the emperor is the only one who accompanies the emperor out of the customs? The concubine wanted to prepare some pastries and supplies for the journey. ”

"I haven't thought about it yet, you don't have to work hard, there are servants from the Internal Affairs Office to manage it, and everything is simple." Linglan served the sour plum soup, and Hongli took it and handed a bowl to Hai Guiren first: "It's just the right temperature, you can't be cold during pregnancy." ”

"Your Majesty." His eyes rolled around, but he lowered his head and looked at the black soup in the bowl, but he didn't show his thoughts. In his selfish heart, he still hopes that Concubine Hui can stay in the palace, and only in this way can he take care of her dragon fetus. After all, Concubine Hui only thinks that she treats her with one heart.

Concubine Xian is a strong character, and when things are inevitably reckless, she is not as delicate and gentle as Concubine Hui, and she knows how to experience the holy will. Let's say that Qi Qige has been in contact with Concubine Hui these times, and he also understands her temper better. Thinking like this, Qi Qige made up his mind and wanted the emperor to make up his mind as soon as possible.

"Your Majesty, how is the sour plum juice in the palace of the concubines?" He smiled sweetly.

"Not bad." Hongli drank a bowl and smiled peacefully.

Qiqige shook his head: "Two days ago, the concubine went to Huiguifei Niangniang, and also tasted the sour plum juice in Niangniang's palace. It's much better than that. Not only that, but the pastries in the Niangniang Palace are also exquisite, and the concubines have eaten a lot. On weekdays, I look at the concubine Niangniang Niang Fairy, beautiful and refined, but I don't want to have much better craftsmanship than fairies, which is coveted. ”

Pursing his lips and giggling, he said self-deprecatingly: "In the end, the concubine grew up on the grassland, and she didn't know how to do these fine skills, which made the emperor laugh." ”

Linglan followed Hai Guiren for a long time, and immediately understood her thoughts: "The little lord is worried about the pastries in the palace of the concubine, but it is a coincidence, Wang Xizi also sent a lot of them over early this morning, and the slave maid will go to get them, so that the emperor and the little master can try them." ”

"Go." Qi Qige smiled happily: "The emperor is blessed." ”

"The concubine treats you very well." Hongli's tone couldn't hear the emotion, but the smile on his face was still friendly.

"The concubine was ignorant in the past, and she didn't have a doorkeeper, so she offended many sisters and sisters. That is, the concubine is good at motherhood, does not care about the concubines, and has always been good to the concubines. Qiqi took advantage of the situation and stuck to the emperor's chest, and laughed slowly. But nothing more was said.

However, her mind was indeed ingenious, and she moved the emperor in a few words.

Early the next morning, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent a message. said that the emperor ordered Concubine Xian to serve on the queen's side, and went to worship the ancestors outside the customs together. Concubine Liuhui and Concubine Chun assisted in the trivial matters of the six palaces in the palace.

It's okay for others, Gao Lingxi is so stunned that he doesn't know what to do. Hurriedly invited Concubine Chun to Chuxiu Palace to discuss countermeasures. "The emperor left the palace and only brought the queen and Concubine Xian, but left you and me in the palace to take care of trivial matters, which is obviously a suspicion of the palace and the father of the previous dynasty. Concubine Chun has always been smart, so she has to think of a way for this palace. ”

Su Wanrong didn't want Concubine Hui to use herself so quickly, and she also had some faint concerns in her heart. But he smiled with a smile on his face: "Niangniang really doesn't have to worry too much, the emperor did this, not only did he not blame you, but he wanted you to experience more." Looking at the harem, in addition to the queen mother, your position is noble, and the queen has no Duanhui crown prince, and her body is becoming more and more unsatisfactory. Niangniang, you take the matter of the sixth palace sooner or later. The emperor has a long-term plan, how can he not do this? ”
