Chapter 4 The Queen Mother Breaks Through
On the night of the Lantern Festival, Dong Qilin took Yi Zhaoyi and Xia Xiuyi out of the palace, I don't know how many people gritted their teeth, Yi Zhaoyi didn't say anything, anyway, since returning to the palace, she has been very spoiled, but Xia Xiuyi ......
Who in the harem doesn't know that the reason why Xia Xiuyi can sit in Xiuyi's position is entirely because of Xi Guifei, but now that Xi Guifei has been grounded by the emperor, how can such a good thing still fall on Xia Xiuyi's head? Could it be that Concubine Cheng Xi did not fall out of favor? Or did Xia Xiuyi see that Concubine Xi was grounded, so she tried her best to seduce the emperor?
Naturally, Li Ling didn't know about these things, she was about to give birth now, and she didn't want to care about the messy things in the harem at all, as for who Dong Qilin took out of the palace tonight, she didn't want to know at all.
At the beginning of the morning, Pear Ling had only eaten dinner for a short time, and wanted to walk around the house to eliminate food, but she didn't take two steps, and she felt that something was wrong, and Pear Ling knew that she was going to give birth!
Because the pear has already given birth once, this time it seems to be a lot calmer, and the doctor also said that she is pregnant well this time and should be able to give birth smoothly.
Zhihe and the others helped the pear to the delivery room, and at the same time asked people to invite Wen Po, who had been placed in Moshang Palace, and also asked people to invite Doctor Ye to come, just in case.
"Block up and down the Moshang Palace, no one is allowed to enter or exit, and the news that the palace is going to produce tonight is not allowed to be released, and let Xiao Dazi take Sanhui and Sanwei to guard at the gate, let them guard the palace, and wait for the palace to give birth to a child, naturally everyone will be rewarded, if anyone lets people in, the palace doesn't mind seeing blood!" Taking advantage of the fact that she still has the spirit, Li Ling hurriedly arranged it, and the people who prayed for Xiao Dazi's Dongqi, Sanhui and Sanwei were the people she trusted.
"The slave knows." Zhihe nodded, knowing that Liling was guarding against some people in the harem, such as Concubine Xiao, and for example, the Queen Mother, after all, a woman's birth is a trip to the ghost gate, and if she is not careful, she may have two lives in one corpse.
At the end of the hour, the pear was finally launched and production was about to begin.
Originally, Zhihe was guarding Liling's side, but soon a little palace maid came in and whispered a few words in Zhihe's ear, Zhihe's face was heavy, and she whispered to Lian Yu and Minglu to stay here, and she went out of the delivery room with the little palace maid.
"You are so bold that you dare to stop the mourning family!" The Queen Mother Yu Anqiao's face was unhappy, and she looked at the palace maids and eunuchs who dared to stop her, and there was a wave of anger in her eyes.
"The Queen Mother forgives her sins, and the minions/slaves are just acting on orders!" Xiao Dazi was arranged by Dong Qilin to Liling's side, so he naturally has more courage than ordinary people, and he is not afraid in the face of the anger of the Queen Mother.
"You really don't let the mourning family in?!" The Queen Mother didn't bother to talk nonsense with this group of minions, she didn't expect that someone would stop her from letting her in, so she only brought a few people to be so restrained, otherwise she would have broken in directly.
"The Queen Mother atons for her sins!" Zhihe looked at the door for a while, then ran out and knelt in front of the Queen Mother, and said: "The slave and maid thanked the Queen Mother for the concubine, thank the Queen Mother for coming to see her as soon as she knew that the Queen Mother was unwell, it was precisely because the Queen Mother was so loving, so the Queen Mother did not dare to let the Queen Mother go in to see her, otherwise if she was sick to the Queen Mother, wouldn't it be the sin of the Queen Mother?" begged the queen mother for the sake of the concubine's filial piety, so she didn't visit the concubine. "Zhihe remembered what Liling said not to let people know that she was in production, although the Queen Mother may have known, but Zhihe never dared to say it, only said that Liling was unwell.
"What a palace maid who can speak well!" The Queen Mother sneered, she had already received the news, so she came to the palace just now, how could she believe that Concubine Xi was unwell because of the palace maid's words?
"Concubine Xi is obviously giving birth, but you, the palace maid, said that she was just unwell, what crime should she be guilty of deceiving the mourning family like this?!" has been the queen for so many years, and has been the queen mother for nearly ten years, Yu Anqiao is naturally a little majestic when she speaks.
"The Queen Mother atons for her sins, and the slaves dare not deceive the Queen Mother! What the slave said is true! "Zhihe keeps kowtowing to the Queen Mother, anyway, it can be delayed for a while.
"Concubine Xi is giving birth, but you have guarded the entire Moshang Palace, and you don't let the mourning family in, could it be that you put Concubine Xi under house arrest?!" The Queen Mother's eyes flashed slightly, and the words in her mouth completely changed direction.
The faces of the palace people guarding the door changed in unison, the Queen Mother's words were more serious than them blocking the Queen Mother from letting the Queen Mother in, this is completely saying that they committed the following offenses and put the Xi Guifei under house arrest! They have nine lives, and that's not enough to cut!
"The Queen Mother said with a smile, the slave maid is the personal palace maid next to the concubine Niangniang, the slave can confirm that it is indeed the order of the concubine Niangniang, in order to prevent the Queen Mother from being sick, let them not let the Queen Mother go in, if the Queen Mother is infected after entering, then they all have to fall to the ground! Maybe you even have to implicate your family! "Zhihe is offending everyone on the one hand, and threatening the people guarding the door on the other, if the queen mother is allowed to enter, then they will all suffer, and even the family.
Zhihe's words, the Queen Mother naturally understood it, and the Queen Mother snorted coldly in her heart, what a Xi concubine, even the palace maids around her are so difficult.
"The mourning family speaks, how can you interject! Come on, slap your mouth! "But no matter how powerful Zhihe is, she is just a palace maid, and the Queen Mother wants to punish her, which is a reason casually.
Zhihe was held up by the people around the Queen Mother, and then he was slapped on the mouth, and the Queen Mother didn't say much, so Zhihe was beaten down all the time, his face was red and swollen, and the blood at the corners of his mouth couldn't stop flowing, and he looked very miserable.
Rao is like this, Zhihe didn't snort, and endured it completely silently.
"That's it!" It wasn't until she knocked down Zhihe that her whole face couldn't be seen that the Queen Mother shouted to stop.
Seeing that the most favored Zhihe around Liling was beaten like this by the Queen Mother, everyone else trembled, for fear that the next person to be beaten by the Queen Mother would be himself.
The Queen Mother was very satisfied with the silent appearance of everyone, and the trick of killing chickens and setting an example for monkeys was not bad.
So the Queen Mother raised her feet and was about to go in, because she felt that no one would dare to stop her now, who knows, the Queen Mother only took a step and was blocked by someone.
"Drag it out......" The Queen Mother originally wanted to say that she would be dragged out with a cane, but before she could speak, she was interrupted.
"Hong'er see the imperial grandmother, the imperial grandmother Wan'an!" The second prince appeared at the door with a few palace people and saluted the queen mother.
"Get up! It's all here, why haven't you rested yet? When the Queen Mother saw Dong Zihong, her tone softened a little, after all, she still had the purpose of supporting the second prince in the future, who made the second prince the only prince in the harem who was related to her by blood.
"Hong'er had already fallen asleep, but who knew that when she heard a commotion outside, she knew that it was the imperial grandmother who came, so she came to see the imperial grandmother." Five-year-old Dong Zihong has already spoken in an orderly manner.
"So it is." The Queen Mother nodded, obviously very happy that the second prince had heard that she was coming, so he came to see her.
