Before leaving the New Year, good news came from the palace that Concubine Li was two months pregnant, promoted two levels in a row, and became a concubine. When Mu Xuefu heard the news, she was cooking a pot of brilliantly blooming daffodils, and her lips hooked a little cold smile, only saying that Emperor Xuanwu really had many sons and grandchildren, and after she left the pot of daffodils, the flowers and leaves were scattered, and there were not even leaves left.

Concubine Li is pregnant and promoted to two levels, some people are jealous, some people are red-eyed, some people don't care about themselves, and some people are cold-eyed.

In the Imperial Concubine's Yanfu Palace, the Imperial Concubine held the imperial grandson and teased, and Jing Yu and Mu Yurong sat down.

"Isn't the mother in a hurry at all?" Jing Yu looked at his mother and concubine and was still teasing her grandson here, smiled gently, and said.

The imperial concubine gently hooked the corners of her mouth, patted the back of the little imperial grandson, and leaned at Jing Yu and said, "What's there to worry about, isn't it just pregnant?" It's only been two months, and it's not certain whether it's a man or a woman, even if you give birth to a prince? My grandchildren are older than him, and I'm afraid that he won't be able to rob you? ”

Jingyu picked up the tea cup, and the curled tea leaves in the cup stretched out, like a butterfly dancing under the water, and then slowly precipitated, like the posture of autumn leaves falling. He blew lightly, took a sip, and said, "But the queen and Concubine Xian attach great importance to Concubine Li's birth, and the queen rewarded a lot of treasures to Huayang Palace, and Concubine Xian personally sent supplements." ”

"Hmph, don't I know what they have in mind?" The imperial concubine snorted lightly.

With the last Hua Xitan, the emperor is particularly fond of Concubine Li's son in the womb, and he is an old man, and even the most favored Mrs. Ning Xin is not as favored by Emperor Xuanwu as the current Concubine Li.

Jing Yu said with a smile: "It is natural for the queen to control the harem and reward treasures, but Concubine Xian is a little too concerned. ”

Jingxi is getting more and more naughty now, it's okay to sit honestly for a while, but it will make trouble after a little longer. The imperial concubine hugged the little emperor and grandson in a different position, raised her head and thought about it carefully, pondered for a moment, and said quietly: "Besides, it is unknown whether it can be born, and the Hua family is an example." After speaking, she picked up Jingxi and lifted him up, "Xi'er, are you right about what grandma said?" ”

Jing Xi didn't understand what she was talking about, but it was just very funny to fly and fly, which made him laugh. Listening to his silver bell-like childlike voice, the imperial concubine was in a good mood, as if the depression in her heart was healed by the laughter of her grandson, "What are you afraid of if you have a grandson in this palace?" ”

After losing it for a while, Mu Yurong saw that the imperial concubine was a little tired, so she took the child back.

The imperial concubine tugged at her clothes, looked at Mu Yurong, looked stunned, and said, "You have a good relationship with Princess Chen, isn't it?" ”

Mu Yurong hesitated, the imperial concubine had never asked her about her and Mu Xuefu, why did she care about it today? She nodded and said truthfully: "Sisters with the same father and mother are naturally very good, and even the daughter-in-law had a difficult birth when she was a child, and it was Xuefu who found someone to deliver the birth to save the lives of our mother and son." ”

Jing Rong looked at the imperial concubine and said, "Why did the mother concubine suddenly mention Princess Chen?" ”

The imperial concubine said: "If her heart is towards Yurong, then King Chen will naturally stand on your side in the future." ”

Jing Rong raised his eyebrows lightly, and said suspiciously: "Originally, Yurong's sister married King Chen just to win him over, but Jing Rong didn't take the bait at all, and now he is just working as an errand in the household department, and even Jinggi Wei has been replaced by Jingzong, what use value is there?" ”

The gemstone on the head of the imperial concubine was inlaid with gold and green hairpins, and she said meaningfully: "Today is different from the past, King Chen's beloved wife knows the streets and alleys, and Yurong's sister is blowing the wind on the pillow in King Chen's ears, are you afraid that he won't help you?" In addition, you also have to broaden your horizons, Jingrong does not have Gyeonggi Wei now, but he still has 500,000 troops. ”

Jing Yu seemed to have been woken up from a dream, his eyes lit up, he hugged his fist to the imperial concubine, and said with a smile: "It's still the mother concubine who has a vision, and the son is negligent." He was a man as gentle as jade, and this shallow smile with his merry peach blossom eyes also gently raised upward, handsome and seductive, making the maids serving in the palace of the imperial concubine blush.

Mothers all over the world only think that their children are the best. The imperial concubine has only one son, Jing Yu, who has been cared for since she was a child, and she only feels proud of her son when she sees her son getting better and better. He looked sideways at Mu Yurong and said, "What to do, what to say, the mother concubine must know with your intelligence." ”

She is still satisfied with this daughter-in-law, with good appearance, good family background, knowledgeable and reasonable, gentle and intelligent, and it can be said that she is a perfect match for her son. What's more, now he has given birth to a little grandson for himself. Since having a little imperial grandson, the emperor's favor for himself has gradually increased, which shows how much the emperor attaches importance to the first grandson of the royal family, and these are also the credit of this daughter-in-law.

Mu Xuefu could only bite the bullet and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the mother-in-law will do her best." ”

Mu Yurong smiled a little bitterly and helplessly, she didn't want to involve her sister in this war that didn't know life and death, but because she was Princess Rui and Princess Chen, from the moment her identity was determined, the two of them were destined to be involved in right and wrong together.

"Okay, you guys go back, I'll also go to Huayang Palace to have a look." The imperial concubine waved Jing Yu and sent them away.

Jing Yu joked: "The mother concubine just said that she was not in a hurry, why do you want to visit again?" ”

The imperial concubine glared at him, "The queen is noble, she doesn't have to set foot in the palace of the concubine, she is under me, if the concubine goes, but I don't go, it will inevitably make people think that I think I have too high a self-esteem." And the emperor is now pampering Concubine Li, rare like a treasure, if it reaches him, then the virtuous lady I have built up in the emperor's heart for so many years will lose points. So, although I didn't want to go, I had to go. After a pause, he said, "By the way, the gifts you send to Concubine Li must not be food, in case someone uses this to slander you." ”

This kind of thing is very common in the palace, although the pregnant concubine is very careful in eating and wearing, but at some point she will be unclean without knowing it.

Jing Yuzhen said: "My son has prepared them, they are all precious but impractical things, and Concubine Li will not touch them." ”

The imperial concubine was also very relieved of him, nodded straight, and smiled at the little emperor grandson in Mu Yurong's arms, the little emperor was picking up his hand and stuffing it into his mouth, and was looking up at his grandmother smiling at him, he seemed to be happy, dancing and "giggling".

"If it weren't for the fact that there are a lot of things in the palace now, I really want to keep Xi'er here for a few days." The older the child, the more pleasing he becomes, and the imperial concubine is really reluctant to let him leave when she looks at her grandson's cute appearance.

Mu Yurong said gently: "If the mother concubine is reluctant to leave Xi'er here today, anyway, Xi'er is now older, and with the nurse to take care of her, she can also stay in the palace." ”

Although the imperial concubine also wished, she still waved her hand, "No, the New Year is approaching, and your house still needs you to cook, so that the running concubine in and outside the palace feels sorry for you." Besides, I'm also busy, and I have to help the queen take care of the six palaces, and I can't take care of Xi'er wholeheartedly, and I'm not at ease when Xi'er isn't by my side in this palace. ”

"Yes." Jingyu stood up and arched his hand towards the imperial concubine, "Then wait for the New Year's Festival, and we will take Xi'er to disturb the concubine here for a few days." ”

The imperial concubine smiled: "That's good." She got up and walked to Jing Yu and patted him on the back, "Okay, the concubine knows your filial piety, go back." ”

After Jingyu's family of three left, the imperial concubine changed her clothes and went to Huayang Palace, at that time, there was a lot of laughter in Huayang Palace, and the imperial concubine walked in slowly, and saw Concubine Xian sitting next to Concubine Li and laughing the most, although Concubine Wen also laughed with her, but there was no smile in her eyes. The rest of the people were also laughing with hypocrisy on the sidelines.

When everyone saw the imperial concubine come in, they all got up and saluted, only Concubine Li did not move on the bed, only smiled at her and said, "The concubine can't get out of bed to greet the imperial concubine." ”

The imperial concubine didn't blame her, the smile on her face was still calm, and she said gently: "You are now a double body, what kind of etiquette do you have, so that you can give birth to a prince for the emperor is the most important thing." ”

Concubine Xian took the lead and sat beside Concubine Li, took her hand and patted the back of her hand, "You see how much the imperial concubine feels sorry for you, and even the number of courtesies is waived." You are a great hero now, you just need to rest and maintain. She casually picked up the tonic soup from the table next to the bed and fed it to Concubine Li, "This is the Sydney Chuanbei bird's nest specially stewed by this palace, didn't you say that I vomited so much that my throat was uncomfortable?" This is most suitable for eating. ”

Concubine Li pursed her lips and smiled, "How dare Sister Lao Xian feed me, let the next person come." She silently accepted Concubine Xian's overtures, she knew that even if she had a son, she couldn't fight, so it was better to take a good team now, and she could have a good plan for the child's future.

Concubine Xian called the maid beside Concubine Li to serve her and drink. After Concubine Li finished drinking, she wiped the corners of her mouth with a silk handkerchief, and said: "Sister Xian, this stew is very delicious, and the concubine suddenly felt that the disgusting feeling in her heart was also suppressed when she drank it." ”

Concubine Wen Guifei looked at the urn stew pot and rolled her eyes in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face, "I don't think your morning sickness is bad, it seems that this child is very well-behaved, and he knows that his mother is working hard to conceive him, so he didn't toss you." At first glance, he is a filial and sensible prince, unlike the worry-free of the palace, he tosses endlessly in his stomach, and now he is even more naughty. ”

Concubine Li touched her belly, her face was stained with the tenderness of a first-time mother, "Where is the prince, the concubine hopes to give birth to a little princess who can be as beautiful and lively as Princess Sanssouci." ”

The imperial concubine took all the expressions of several of them into her eyes, sighed slightly in her heart, and said with a smile: "Whether it is the prince or the princess, they are all heirs, and they are due to the society." Now in the entire palace except for the emperor and queen, you are the most precious, and you can only mention it to the palace and the queen if you have any needs. She glanced sideways at Concubine Xian, and said gently: "Now that the New Year Festival is getting closer, the palace and the queen are already busy and have no skills, so it is better to leave Concubine Li's baby to Concubine Xian to take care of." ”
