The middle palace is pregnant, the country's major event, the emperor's joy is beyond words, and even the eastern tour with the minister for a long time is exempted from taxes along the way, all of which are counted in the unborn child in the queen's womb.

This October pregnancy has just begun, I don't know how many things will be such a grand and colorful thing after that, but the queen has not yet given birth to a boy or a girl, if it is a princess, people think that now all this will become a joke, but the emperor doesn't care at all, even if it is a daughter, it is also his and An Yi's child, the importance and significance of it, how can others understand.

In the days before the emperor's trip, almost all of them accompanied the queen in the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, and the six palaces were colorless, and even the beauty in the autumn moon of Pinghu Lake did not show her face again.

And the queen mother disliked Wei Guiren's cold and explicitly forbade her to go to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, which is also obvious to all, it was rumored that the emperor and queen cultivated Wei Hongyan, looking forward to her giving birth to a boy and half a girl in the middle palace in the future, and now the queen herself is about to have a child, Wei Hongyan is useless, and she is waiting to watch a good show for a while, to see how this woman who has inexplicably occupied the emperor's heart for many years, how to fall out of favor and how to return to the harem, if Wei really falls out of favor, her hard life should begin.

But the emperor did not forget the red face, accompanied by the queen, is happy is the heart, is the husband and wife to bear the pain of losing a child should have the responsibility, a few days without seeing the red face, Hongli believes that she can understand herself, to the evening of the day before the tour, finally took time to go to Pinghu Qiuyue to see her.

Since Fu Heng set up checkpoints everywhere in the park to strengthen protection, the autumn moon of Pinghu Lake is even more quiet like a no-man's land, and when the emperor came from afar, he saw the suspension bridge being hoisted, and he couldn't help frowning: "This is a big spoiling scenery, but ...... That's it, just think about it. ”

He walked in, and saw only three or two eunuchs and palace maids in the spacious courtyard, and there was no red face, and suddenly saw Cherry coming back with a basket, she came forward in surprise and saluted: "The emperor is here?" ”

Hongli asked, "What about your master?" ”

Cherry pointed to a basket of red bead-like fresh fruits: "The master and the slave went to pick the fruit, and came back to make jam, which was very appetizing and sour, and I wanted to give it to the queen." ”

Hongli happily followed the direction of the cherry to find, Hongyan was really standing under the tree tiptoe to pick the fruit, and she and the cherry can basically pick the place, she is trying to pick a higher place, stepping on the bottom of the flower pot swaying, Hongli shook his head, remembered the little palace maid who picked flowers under the osmanthus tree, did not wait for a sound, stepped forward to help her with one hand, and picked the fruit with the other. Hongyan was a little surprised at first when she saw the emperor, but then she smiled sweetly, she hadn't seen anyone for a few days, and she didn't expect the emperor to come to see her before leaving.

"The jam is ready, when I come back and taste it, I know that you are kind enough to give it to the queen, but the queen has nothing to lose, and the queen mother or the people of the Fucha family are circling around her. I don't know what kind of temperament this fruit is, I don't know if it can be eaten by pregnant women, you keep it for yourself, keep a bite for me, and don't send it to the others. Hongli instructed, took a bite of the fruit casually, and it was really sour and astringent, so he sent it to Hongyan's mouth, frowning, "Look at it, can you eat this?" ”

But Hongyan only took what he held in his hand and tasted it, and then gave it to the emperor to eat, Hongli frowned and hesitated, the sour taste in his mouth had not dissipated, it can be seen that Hongyan said expectantly: "The emperor tastes it." He reluctantly put it into his mouth, and the sour taste spread again, making Hongli tense all over, and couldn't help but pat Hongyan on the head: "Is it deliberately bad, or is it sour and astringent, what's the difference." ”

Hongyan was so happy, she hid a few steps back and covered her mouth and laughed, Hongli was annoyed by the sourness, but when she saw her smile and joy, she knew that she was not sad and sad because she was left out here, and she was relieved, and stepped forward to hug her and said: "Don't mess around, you dare to send this thing to the queen, I'm not at home, don't make trouble for yourself, you know?" ”

Hongyan nodded again and again: "The emperor said that if he didn't send it, the concubine wouldn't send it, but this fruit tastes sour and sour when it is fresh, boil it and boil it, remove the astringency and add rock sugar, it is the best jam, and the concubine made it for the concubine Niangniang when she was in Yingtai." ”

"Save it until I come back and eat." Hongli said that he was going back with Hongyan's hand, saying that he was so sour that he was going to drink water and rinse his mouth.

The two came back in a hurry, Hongli stretched his brows after eating tea, and thought that Hongyan had just eaten it, and asked her why she was not afraid of sourness, and looked at him with a smile: "Women's families are jealous every day, what is this sour?" ”

Hongli was stunned, but he was a little distressed, seeing that she generously said that she was jealous, not only would she not be disgusted, but she felt real, and motioned for Hongyan to sit beside her, and the two snuggled up to each other, he said: "How about me and the queen, you must be more considerate than anyone else, but I am still looking forward to our children, Hongyan, this is my true words." ”

In fact, Hongyan really doesn't think it matters how important the emperor's sincerity or falsehood is, she herself is looking forward to becoming a mother one day, and wants to have children for her beloved, which is enough. She retracted herself into a world where there was only Hongli and her, so it didn't matter what the others were, maybe it seemed unusually negative or even pitiful to others, but she asked for peace and tranquility in her heart, anyway, there were all kinds of people in this harem, and it wasn't bad for her state of mind.

And her state of mind, in the eyes of the emperor, is even more precious.

Hongli accompanied her until nightfall, and then left in the night, after all, she was going to set off for the eastern tour tomorrow, and it was not suitable to stay in the palace of the concubines. The two parted in front of the door, Hongyan looked forward to the emperor's early return, and Hongli repeatedly advised: "You just stay here, don't go anywhere, anyway, I will come back soon, I just want to go to see the queen, and wait for her to find you, don't run away by yourself." Now the Changchun Immortal Pavilion is very cautious, and even I ...... It's all a little uncomfortable. ”

"The emperor can rest assured, the concubines will be fine." Realizing that the emperor was afraid that she would be bullied, she knew how painful it was to get what she couldn't get, so she would rather take a step back and only protect these small but own sweetness and happiness.

A peaceful night, the next morning the emperor set off from the Old Summer Palace, before leaving naturally to say goodbye to the queen mother and the queen, others are still difficult to see the face of the sky, but the rumbling of the sound of cars and horses disappeared, when the garden regained tranquility, but there were gossips, saying that the emperor went to Pinghu Qiuyue last night, and even stayed there for the night.

The Old Summer Palace is so big, each place is far apart, it is not better than living next to each other in the Forbidden City, and it is impossible to see anything in the autumn moon of Pinghu Lake, so he said nonsense that it is not the one who arranges the red face, anyway, no one can see the red face unpleasantly.

But when these words reached the ears of the queen mother, it naturally made her unhappy, now it is time for everything to focus on the queen, but the emperor has the heart to take care of Wei Hongyan, and he really does not understand the queen's hard work. The queen mother couldn't clearly target the red face, so she issued an edict and ordered the six palaces not to walk around in the garden at will during the emperor's travel days, the reason is naturally that the garden has strengthened the guards and guards much more than before, and no matter what it is, the queen mother said that she can't go out, and no one dares to disobey.

But everyone thought that it was the emperor who favored Wei Guiren, so that he angered the queen mother so that they were implicated and could not be free, and sour words floated everywhere, but Hongyan lived his own small life in Pinghu Qiuyue, ignoring it.

On the contrary, the queen was in Changchun Immortal Pavilion, and heard a few rumors, and asked how Qianya Hongyan was, Qianya said that everything was fine in Pinghu Qiuyue, and she seemed to want to excuse Hongyan, saying that the emperor just went to look at it that day, and did not stay there.

The queen smiled: "You protect her like this? ”

Qianya panicked in her heart, isn't it, she is the queen's person, how can she turn her heart to outsiders, but her friendship with Hongyan, even if a woman who has become an emperor and a woman who is still a palace maid, has not faded by half a point. When Qianya went to Yongxiang to deliver things, Hongyan's painful plea was still in her heart, and it wasn't that Hongyan was willing to come to this point, it was not easy to survive after so many things, and those who blamed her for being jealous of her were really unreasonable.

"It should be like this, you and her have a sisterhood, and they were by my side at the beginning, but now if they are separated, it will be chilling." The queen said, "I'm not suspicious of you, I just feel that there is still truth in this harem." ”

Qianya breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If Niangniang wants to see Wei Guiren, the slave will pass it on for you." ”

The queen said: "The queen mother is still very nervous these days, and wait a minute, I don't have anything myself, but they are too careful." More things are better than less, after the first three months, everything is stable, and the Queen Mother is at ease. ”

Qianya said with a smile: "Niangniang forgives the slave and maid for talking too much, now look, only the mother is the most calm, whether it is the queen mother, or the ladies in the house, they are all very nervous, and the third lady came that day and said, let the slave and maid put away the needlework and scissors." ”

The queen gently touched her unmanifested belly and said with a smile: "After fourteen years, I am nervous myself, but when I think that God gave it to me, I will definitely bless him with safety." ”

When she said this, a palace maid came to ask Qianya to speak, she listened in front of the door, frowned and came back: "Niangniang, Kyushu Qingyan Chun Guifei asked for a decree to announce the imperial doctor, it seems that the pure concubine's fetus is not very stable. ”

The queen said curiously: "It's not that there is a doctor who takes care of her. ”

Qianya said embarrassedly: "I'm afraid that the Empress Dowager's decree is all around us, if Concubine Chun can find someone, she shouldn't come to you rashly to ask for it." ”

The queen sighed and instructed Qianya: "If you go and take a look, just say that it is what I mean, the imperial doctor who serves the pure concubine does not have to come to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion again, so that he can take care of the pure concubine." ”

Qianya took the order and brought the imperial doctor to Kyushu Qingyan, and Baoqin greeted her very politely, but when asked how the pure concubine's body was, she flickered, and Qianya finally learned from the other imperial doctors that the pure concubine was not in good health, and the fetus in her womb was also very unstable.

The words were transmitted back to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, and the queen secretly thought, isn't it because she used medicine on the emperor on the day of the silkworm?
