The princess's eyebrows were crooked, and she said with a smile: "It's a long one, the clothes that were originally rewarded by the mother didn't fit well, but now they are wearing just right, but the belly is getting bigger and bigger, and it's not easy to wear." ”

Lan Qi pulled her to sit down together, asked some important words, and then brought the imperial doctor to look at her in front of her, because the royal official woman has a regular life and a light diet, and the fetus and herself are excellent, the imperial doctor asked Concubine De to rest assured, Lan Qi rewarded the person who served Xiao Wang's family, and then told her: "You can rest assured that you can take care of your body, and you don't have to worry about other things." ”

Xiao Wang was grateful, but he heard Concubine De Niangniang say: "Through the emperor's promise, during the Dragon Boat Festival, I asked people to bring some things to your mother at home. When you give birth to this child safely, the Queen Mother will definitely give you a favor and promise you, and if there is a prince or the biological mother of the princess or daughter in the place, your father and mother will definitely be treated preferentially, and you will not have to rely on your uncle for help. ”

"Mother?" The princess couldn't believe these words, and was anxious to get up to thank Concubine De, Huanchun and a few people pressed her early, Lan Qi looked at her quietly, but Xiao Wang said, "Please also rest assured, the concubine will not forget her former duty because of this, nor will she deliberately provoke Wang Changzai, how the concubine lived in the past, how will she live in the future." ”

"I don't have to remember this, you can remember it yourself." Lan Qi's words were gentle, but the momentum gave enough pressure on Xiao Wang's family, "Whether the child in your womb is a princess or a brother, whether it is raised under the knees of a brother or other mothers, you are always her biological mother, your words and deeds will have a great impact on them, you can have a status, but you can't be lowly in character, in this palace in the future, not only for yourself, but also for the sake of the child." ”

The princess was very useful, and bowed deeply and said: "There is a mother to mention, the concubine's mood is clear, this palace can't control other people's minds, but she can manage herself." ”

Lan Qi was very happy to see her so transparent, and because it was not appropriate to stay for a long time, she took someone away after a few words. But halfway back to the palace, he ordered Huanchun to call the people from the Internal Affairs Office, and the people over there thought that Concubine De Niangniang had something important, so they hurried over, but they were reprimanded by splitting their heads and covering their faces. said that they dared to transfer people from Brother A's office to Qixiang Palace, and immediately ordered them to withdraw everyone to Brother Wang, and Qixiang Palace was not in a hurry at all in the past two days.

Concubine De Niangniang has always treated people preferentially, as long as the internal affairs office is conscientious and conscientious, very rarely blamed, this time I thought that there was the emperor's will, there would be no mistakes, who knew that Yonghe Palace was offended, and Ma Yuer rushed to Qixiang Palace to remove people, at that time, the pot-bellied Wang Changzai stood in front of the door and asked proudly: "What's the matter, why did you evacuate everyone again?" ”

The people who came didn't dare to push it on Concubine De Niangniang casually, but the people around Wang Chang could inquire, only to know that it was Yonghe Palace who sent a message, saying that it was not suitable for her to deploy the people from the elder brother here, and she would send a newcomer in a few days.

Wang Chang didn't dare to be disrespectful to Concubine De in front of outsiders, so he complained to his palace maid in private: "She just can't see me, okay, thinking of Fa'er to squeeze me, the emperor doesn't allow me to be rude to her, I already respect her very much, what else does she want?" "She came out of the little slut's house, and came to trouble me, it must have been instigated by the little slut, and when I gave birth to a child, I didn't round and flatten her, and I turned her upside down and called her cousin." ”

The concubines in the main hall hugged the fifteenth elder brother and didn't mix with this matter at all, and a group of people came to Hula in the morning, saying that they wanted to serve Wang Chang, she was very disgusted in her heart, and Wang's was only one Chang presence, which caught up with her specifications, and she couldn't show her resentment in her heart, only to be stuffy in her own room.

The concubine has always been unsatisfactory, and the only thing that makes her happy at the moment is that the fifteenth elder brother who has begun to toddle is very intimate with her, as if he was born by himself. Originally, she was worried that the Wang family would get in the way, but the Wang family was focused on dominating the emperor and fighting with those Han women, so she had no time to pay attention to this child.

In the past year and a half, from the baby who cries day and night, to the little doll who can stagger, babble and recognize people, the gap in the concubine's heart for more than ten or twenty years in the palace has been filled, and I think that it would be good if the Wang family didn't think about this child for the rest of his life. In this way, she doesn't care what is going on in the East Side Palace, she doesn't want to grovel to the Wang family, nor does she want her to be disgusted with herself. But even so, the days are still depressing and difficult, if it weren't for the lovely fifteenth elder brother by her side, the concubine felt that she would go crazy sooner or later.

Let's say that after Concubine De withdrew the people from Ah Ge that day, she did not make it difficult for Wang Chang, everything was focused on the fetus in her womb, and another person was deployed to prepare for delivery every two days. The queen mother asked a few words about this matter, the emperor didn't even raise his eyelids, as for the others to watch, the Qianqing Palace still has rewards sent to the Qixiang Palace every three or five days, Wang Changzai can still see the holy face from time to time, she is also a natural beauty, even if the big belly is about to give birth, and there is a beautiful face, ordinary people can't compare with the beauty, the palace people feel that she just relies on this face, it is enough to eat in the Qianqing Palace.

At the beginning of June, Wang Changzai gave birth smoothly and gave birth to a little brother again. Countless people secretly cursed her for stepping into the ghost gate when she gave birth and not coming back, but she had a good life, not only gave birth to the prince again, but her body did not suffer much, plus this time she herself has experience, and there will be no more things that happened to the concubine who assassinated her at the beginning, and the postpartum recovery is also orderly, which makes the palace people grit their teeth and hate secretly, and they don't understand why the more annoying people are, the more obedient they are.

But in this world, there are a lot of unfairness, so people have to live harder for the fairness of their hearts. No matter how lively the palace is these days, the princes and officials living in remote courtyards, and the attitude of being quiet and indisputable with the world, let Lan Qi see such a beautiful and precious character, and if she doesn't fight, she won't lose to injustice, and letting herself live in peace and peace is the long-term way.

As soon as the happy event of the royal family added a son in June, she looked forward to adding another grandson in July, and Li Fang Fujin in the fourth elder brother's mansion will also be in force, since the previous disturbances, Yuxi managed the mansion in an orderly manner, I don't know how she persuaded the Song family to stop entangled with the Li family, at least in the days when the Li family was born, everything was peaceful in the family.

Lan Qi's side, the children don't come to tell her, she just asks, at most when the Queen Mother occasionally asks, she has to send someone to inquire, which provokes the Queen Mother to blame her for being a mother, Lan Qi has always laughed perfunctory, but when she turned around, she still followed her own thoughts, and was unwilling to interfere more in the children's affairs.

On the sixth day of the seventh month, the palace was preparing for the princess and concubines to beg for the next day, and news came from outside the palace that Li Fangfujin was about to give birth. The first child is always more difficult, until dinnertime, when Lan Qi wrote a gift list with Bu Guiren in Yonghe Palace, Lu Zhu ran over happily, and said to the mother that Li Fangfujin gave birth to a little county lord, and the mother and daughter were safe.

Lan Qi remembered that the mother and daughter were safe last time, but when she turned around, her little granddaughter was gone, in the end it was her own flesh and blood, and she was very unsure, so she sent someone to ask for the news, and she and Sister Bu prayed and burned incense in the small Buddha hall. Without waiting for them to come out of the Buddha's worship, the fourth elder brother personally entered the palace to report the good news, saying that he had been to the Qianqing Palace and Ningshou Palace, and the noble people couldn't help but be disgusted: "The fourth elder brother is too restrained, this must be the mother who is most worried about you, you occasionally come to Yonghe Palace first, and no one will care." ”

Yin Zhen smiled: "If you come first, you will be driven to Ningshou Palace by Eniang, and you will be reprimanded, it won't work, I will be Amma's person." ”

There was a lot of joy in the house, and Yinzhen solemnly saluted her mother to report the good news, and confidently told her that this child is very strong, although it is a female doll, she was born with a tiger head and a tiger brain, and she must be able to feed well.

Lan Qi was overjoyed, told him a few words of caution, and said that he would wait for the child to be hugged in the palace after a hundred days, don't be in a hurry to take it out to show off, and it is good to take it leisurely, so he pressed his mind to see the little granddaughter with his own eyes as soon as possible, and sent his son to leave the palace as soon as possible.

And the Qianqing Palace followed up with the will, saying that the emperor invited Concubine De Niangniang to come over to talk, Lan Qi guessed that Xuan Ye was probably too busy to leave, otherwise he would have come first on such a good day. When they came to the Qianqing Palace in full dress, they saw the prince and the princess walking out, the two didn't seem to realize that Concubine De was outside the door, and the princess caught up with the prince and said: "You see, the emperor Ama said that the words of the concubines are right, since ancient times, the concubines can't coax you like the side Fujin and them, the concubines just want to be your virtuous helpers." ”

The prince impatiently put down a sentence: "Okay." Turning his head and seeing Concubine De and his party by the door, her face was slightly embarrassed, and she was busy coming to greet her, and the princess was also very unnatural, Lan Qi didn't want everyone to be difficult, so she simply didn't wait for Liang's father-in-law to come out to greet her, and went straight to the door.

Lan Qi led people away, but she didn't know that the crown princess was muttering behind her: "Concubine De doesn't seem to have many rules, Huang Ama hasn't said the summoning yet, why did she walk in by herself." ”

This sentence annoyed the prince, and sneered and teased her: "Could it be that people stay here and watch us quarrel?" ”

The crown princess was speechless, the prince turned around and left, and instructed the servants around him: "Tell Wen Fujin to prepare, I will spend tonight in her house." ”

Lan Qi didn't know that there was such a thing behind her, and she didn't see the emperor unhappy when she entered the study, and what surprised her was that the man who was forty years old, Xuan Ye was still like before, thinking that she was going to come out of the palace, and then when the night was dark, the two of them sneaked out of the Forbidden City under the protection of the guards. When Lan Qi came back to her senses, the carriage had stopped in front of the fourth elder brother's mansion, and Xuan Ye took her hand and said, "I know, you must want to see what your child's son and son's home looks like, and you have never seen it." ”
