202. I will be by his side without hesitation
The news of Shen Ci's pregnancy spread throughout the Sixth Palace overnight.
With such good news, some people naturally rejoice and some are worried.
For example, the two most powerful female relatives of the Zhu family in the harem:
The queen stayed awake all night, made a rag doll with Shen Ci's birthday written on it, and tied it with silver needles on its lower abdomen.
The Queen Mother stayed awake all night, kneeling and bowing and kneeling in front of the gods and Buddhas in the hall, restoring the clear spirit of the gods, and praying for the Bodhisattva to bless Shen Ciwu and give birth safely.
Early the next morning, Fengluan Palace ushered in many new faces.
It was Sanfu who brought them here, saying that it was a skillful worker of the Internal Affairs Office, and Li Mobai pointed out that they came to do things.
The queen thought that Shen Ci was pregnant, but Li Mobai finally had time to stop and look at herself, thinking that she had not changed everything in Fengluan Palace for all these years, so she pointed someone to help her add bricks and tiles.
Thinking that the concubine was going to come to ask for peace for a while, it was inconvenient for them to be here and ding, so he said: "The concubine is going to come to ask for peace later, and it is not convenient for these craftsmen to work here, so it's better to wait for the concubine to disperse and then let them come, right?" ”
Sanfu smiled: "Don't get in the way, half an hour's work will be good." ”
The queen was still curious about what she could do in half an hour, but when she returned to the main hall after dressing up, she saw that everything was the same, except for the chair that Shen Ci was worried about when the sun set had changed greatly.
The pineapple high chair was replaced by a lower square chair.
The chair is covered with goose down on three sides, and people feel like they are surrounded by down, no matter what posture they sit in, they are very comfortable.
In addition, the chair cushion is sealed with three layers of thick bamboo cotton, and people can't feel the slightest hardness when they sit on it, just thinking that they are sitting on cotton, and they won't have back pain if they sit for a long time.
Sanfu said: "This is a success." Queen Mother, the emperor asked the servant to give you a message. Concubine Rong is now pregnant, and she can't kneel after standing for a long time, so she doesn't have to let her be restrained by such a thing as asking for peace every day. ”
The queen smiled dignifiedly, "That's natural, Concubine Rong is pregnant, and the palace is very happy." Her child is also a child of the palace, and to tell you the truth, the palace is also up and down in her heart, and she is even more nervous than the emperor. In fact, Xiangling prepared a soft cushion early in the morning, and replaced the tea with milk for Concubine Rong, but in the end, it was still not as thoughtful as the emperor thought. ”
"The queen is really virtuous, and the slave will tell the emperor what she wants, there is nothing to do here, and the slave will retire first."
After he walked away, Xiangling was not angry: "The emperor feels sorry for her and doesn't let her come to ask for peace, why do you need to make so many tones?" How can there be a concubine's seat more exquisite and luxurious than the middle palace lady? When the emperor did this, he inevitably didn't care about the face of the queen! ”
In the end, it is the queen's domestic slave, and if such words are changed to other palace people, they dare not say it if they are killed.
The queen was not annoyed when she heard her say this, she only stared at the down warm seat for a long time before she smiled self-deprecatingly, "When did the emperor take care of the face of this palace?" If the emperor had this palace in his heart, the younger brother of this palace would not have died in vain, and the mother family of this palace would not have been prosperous overnight and fell into the mud from the clouds. ”
Xiangling persuaded: "No matter what Niangniang says, she is the queen of the main palace, even if the mother's family is down for a while, there is always the queen mother to support you." What about Shen's pregnancy? Isn't it still the same to your morning and dusk? ”
The queen raised her hand to interrupt her, "She has a lot of tosses on the road every day, in case there is something long and two short, or if she dies and has fetal gas, she has to rely on this palace if she can't keep it." It's better to wait for her to come, and the palace will promise her not to come to ask for peace in the future, in the end, out of sight and out of mind. ”
Later, when the concubines came to ask for peace, Shen Ci was worried about the scenery.
No matter how sour the concubine is, she has to say congratulations when she sees her.
This should be the first time she hasn't listened to these concubines chewing her tongue after she was lucky.
It's not that they don't want to, they don't dare.
The emperor and the empress dowager attach great importance to the emperor's heir in Shen Ci's womb, and they can't tolerate the sour words of others.
The queen said that she would not have to work hard to greet her every day after giving birth to a good baby in the future, but she said: "It is the concubine's duty to ask the queen to give her a good baby, and the concubine can't hide from this laziness before the time of giving birth in October." ”
Of course she's coming.
She is in charge of assisting the affairs of the six palaces, and now the Zhu family is ready to move, who knows what the queen's heart is?
These women in the harem seem to be useless, but if they really have any bad intentions, they are even more difficult to deal with than those courtiers in the previous dynasty.
On this day, when Concubine An was gone, Concubine Duan caught up with her halfway and sent her back to the palace with her.
The two of them walked in front, the minions followed, and Concubine Duan took her hand and sighed: "With this child, your status is very different." ”
"What's different?" Shen Ci touched his lower abdomen worriedly, and Qi Qiran said: "This child is also wronged. ”
"How can it be a sin?" Concubine Duan put her hand on the back of her hand on her lower abdomen and said, "He is the emperor's first son, and he is a noble son." Besides, there are few lonely nights in the deep palace, you have the emperor's favor, and this child will definitely be able to be raised by your side. With such a little guy by your side, life is always better. ”
"I don't have the heart to think about it so much. Now that I am pregnant and can't sleep, it is a good time for Xue Guiren and my sister. Xue Guiren is beautiful and gentle, and the emperor often mentions her when he is alone with me, and he is very satisfied with her. When I was pregnant, the emperor would often come to accompany me, and when he came, I coaxed him to go to my sister or Xue Guiren. I can't let other women take advantage of the loophole in the months when I'm pregnant. It's not easy. ”
Duan Feiqian said with a smile: "You don't need to worry about these now, just raise this baby with peace of mind." ”
"But isn't the master's task for us to support Xue Guiren?"
Concubine Duan raised her eyebrows, turned her gaze from her lower abdomen back to her face, looked at her with smiling eyes, and said word by word:
"Compared to her, this child in your belly is obviously more expensive."
Concubine Duan's meaningful words suddenly woke up Shen Ciwei.
She is a meticulous work, and she is governed by the people behind the scenes, so her children will also become the pawns of the people behind the scenes.
Will this kid's falling to the ground be the day when the people behind the scenes will set up a chess game and be able to do it?
Historically, Li Mobai did not come out during his reign.
Now that he has children of his own, it means that history will be changed again.
The sunlight cut through the thick clouds one after another, and when Shen Ci raised her head, the clear sunlight just sprinkled on her face.
Slightly harsh, with warmth.
At this moment, she seemed to have figured out something:
[I used to think that fate tricked me to travel back to the Qi Dynasty to kill me in the name of a tyrant. 】
[Now I figured it out. It is for me to stand by his side and wash away the dust that has been blinded to him for thousands of years. 】
[I will also accompany him without hesitation to tear through the veil of conspiracy and find out the truth of the eternal puzzle. 】
[For him, for himself, and for our children.] 】
Shen Ciwu looked at the silhouettes of the clouds and clouds all over the eaves on the endless stone road in front of him, and suddenly felt that this road seemed to be never smooth sailing.
But she still held her head high and kept moving forward step by step.
