299: Chaojing
Liu Zhi was stopped by the palace people in the palace, pursed her lips and was very displeased, and she still didn't understand why she couldn't be as close to A-Niang as before.
Zhang Yan and her daughter have been separated for a long time, and they miss it very much in their hearts, so they winked at each other secretly. smiled and said to Empress Lu, "Don't worry, my body is fine." ”
"You're young, what do you know?" Lu Hou said, "The last time you were pregnant, your body was already weak, and now you are pregnant again after many years, and you have been on the road for so long on a hot day." So be it," she thought for a moment, and commanded,
"Imperial Doctor Dong serves me on weekdays, and his medical skills are very good, so I asked him to stay and take care of you for a while."
Zhang Yan glanced back at Feng Shu, who was standing on the side very embarrassed, and said with a smile, "The queen mother is so considerate of her son, and her son is very grateful. However, these days, Erchen's fetus is taken care of by Imperial Doctor Feng, and he is already very familiar with Erchen's physical condition. It is better to let him and Imperial Doctor Dong take care of Erchen together, so that they can consider each other so as not to make mistakes. ”
Empress Lu pondered for a while, "That's fine." She and Zhang Yan were almost incompatible before, and at this time, she couldn't pull her face, took the teacup handed over by Su Mo on the side and took a sip, and said, "Knowing that you are weak, don't toss around, if you damage my little grandson, I can't spare you." ”
Although the words were a little unpleasant, but when Zhang Yan listened, Empress Lu's heart was already soft, and she pursed her lips and smiled affectionately, "Thank you for your concern." The queen mother can rest assured that this child is also very important to Erchen, and Erchen will definitely take good care of himself. ”
After sending Lu away, Zhang Yan returned to the Jiaofang Palace, looked at the standing side with a good expression, and asked with a smile, "Okay, what's wrong?" Don't you want to be a mother? ”
didn't speak, just secretly glanced at Zhang Yan's lower abdomen, and there was some entanglement in a pair of beautiful apricot eyes.
Zhang Yan's heart moved. Knowing that Hao Hao was about "listening" about his pregnancy, he stretched out his hand, held the palm of Haohao, and gently pressed it on his abdomen.
The good hand shrank slightly as if it had been burned.
"Okay," Zhang Yan asked her with a smile, "This is your brother and sister, do you like him?" ”
Hao Hao still didn't speak, just looked at the apricot kernel on Zhang Yan's abdomen with some doubts in his eyes.
"What do you mean by your younger siblings," Zhang Yan patiently explained to her. "It's that there will be a child who is as lovely as Hao, who has the same blood in his body as you, and is called Ah Weng Ah Ong like you. Call me A-Niang, he will call you sister, will respect you, love you, and will you like to protect him the same? ”
The doubts in his eyes became more and more intense. It wasn't too long for her to get out of her dusty world and start to contact the outside world, Zhang Yan's words were too long and profound for her, she couldn't fully understand them, she tilted her head and thought about it, pointed to Zhang Yan's lower abdomen, and asked. "Brother?"
"Well, brother," Zhang Yan repeated with a smile. "Okay, do you like your brother?"
"Then," he asked, after a moment's thought, "will this brother like me?" ”
"Will Song Wei." Zhang Yan smiled. "My brother must like my sister."
laughed and threw herself into Zhang Yan's arms. said firmly, "Then I like my brother too." ”
Empress Dowager Lu and Empress Zhang were first grandchildren, and then mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and they once had a very good relationship. Later, because of the differences between the two on Liu Ying, and the reason why her life experience was exposed later, it broke down for a time, almost to the point of not being allowed to the world, and now, because Zhang Yan is pregnant again, they are bridging again, and they seem to have entered a honeymoon period with each other, respecting and loving each other, as if returning to the friendly appearance of a long time ago.
"Queen Mother," Tu Yu helped Zhang Yan to take a walk in the imperial garden in front of Weiyang Palace, and said with a smile, "It's easy for the Queen Mother to finally show you a smile." In the past days, I didn't talk so well. ”
Zhang Yan walked on the palace road with her lower abdomen, which began to bulge slightly, and said with a smile, "The queen mother is just for the sake of this child." "But the love between my grandparents and grandchildren when I was a child will never come back!
"But even so, it's good to be able to do the same as it is now." The days of confrontation with Empress Dowager Lu were really difficult. Empress Lu is worthy of being the first heroine in history to be called the ruler of the dynasty, and her mental fortitude and decisiveness have caused her great power. And the two of them are incompatible, sandwiching Liu Ying in the middle, it is really embarrassing for the two to maintain the current superficial and warm relationship,
Zhang Yan exhaled, "That's good! ”
"Ah Fu," Zhang Yan instructed Chu Fu Mu in private, "I'm pregnant now, although it's a good thing. But you also help me pay attention to the movements of some of the concubines in the palace. ”
"Do you suspect they're going to do something wrong?" Chu Fumu said solemnly.
"Not really." Zhang Yan sat down in the sun, caressing her slightly bulging abdomen. Because of her good mood, her pregnancy was very smooth, and her complexion was ruddy, compared to the last time she was pregnant, it was a world of difference. "It's just that I think that you can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't do without the heart to prevent people. Keep an eye on them a little more, and you won't suffer. Especially Yuan Meiren,"
Although Yuan Luo's position has always been just a beauty, far from her position as queen, because she has always been the biological mother of the emperor's only prince, her situation in the palace is very good. Zhang Yan has seen Yuan Luo a few times, she doesn't look beautiful, and her performance is a little restrained, but she doesn't know what's going on.
"I always think that this woman is not simple, sometimes, even if you look at an inconspicuous character, if you don't take precautions enough, you may suffer a big loss."
In this Weiyang Palace, the one who doesn't like to hear the news of her pregnancy the most is probably this Yuan beauty.
After all, if she had never given birth to a prince, it would not be impossible for her son to ascend to the throne of the Han Emperor.
From this point of view, it is not impossible for Yuan Meiren to want to deal with herself.
"Don't deliberately embarrass her," Zhang Yan instructed, "but be careful, don't let her wander around the palace, let alone let her meet His Majesty." ”
Chu Fumu bowed down, "No." ”
Zhang Yan listened to the voice of Yuan Meiren who was begging to see outside the Jiaofang Palace, and was a little stunned.
She thought that Yuan Luo might have some small actions, and even went to Liu Ying to tell her thoughts, but she didn't want it, Yuan Luo would follow the normal procedures in the court and go to the Jiaofang Palace to see herself.
"If the queen feels unwell. The slave went out and returned to Yuan Meiren. Xin Yi said.
Zhang Yan lowered her eyes and said with a smile, "Announce her in." ”
After a while, Yuan Luo gently came in through the curtain that was raised, walked to the crimson lichen in the hall, and knelt on the ground, "Concubine Yuan, see the queen mother, the queen mother is happy and happy." "Bow deeply.
"Yuan Meiren, please get up." Zhang Yan said with a smile.
"Thank you for the grace of the Queen Mother." Yuan Meiren bowed again, and Fang got up gently. It's just that he didn't dare to look up at Zhang Yanhuayan directly, and the years have passed. The humble vulgarity of Yuan Meiren, who belongs to the sprinkling woman, has faded a lot, but she has also raised the delicate spirit of some concubines.
"What's the matter with Yuan Meiren?"
Yuan Luo's eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she was slightly afraid. He bowed his head and said, "The concubine heard that the queen was pregnant, so she came to congratulate her." ”
"My group was sent to Huaiyang by His Majesty, he is still young, and he has never left my aunt to a place he has not been to for so long. Must be scared. Every time I think about Danzi thinking about me there, I feel very uncomfortable. I heard that the vassal king can go back to Chang'an to worship during the New Year," Yuan Luo spoke incoherently, suddenly knelt down again, bowed deeply to the ground, and raised his voice.
"I beg the queen to have mercy on her concubines and let my tuanzi return to Chang'an this year."
Zhang Yan looked at her for a while and said with a smile. "Yuan Meiren has a heart of love for her son, I can understand. But the affairs of the vassal king are state affairs, and although I am the queen of the middle palace, I cannot interfere with ......."
"Queen Mother," Yuan Luo became anxious when she heard this. Hands on the ground, head slammed down. There was a "bang" knock out, "The queen mother pities the concubines." ”
Is this a force to be compelled by oneself? Zhang Yan was slightly displeased and gave Xin Yi a look.
Xin Yi knew the opportunity, and hurriedly helped Yuan Meiren with Fuyao, "Yuan Meiren, don't be like this." If you startle the queen and have a fetal gas, can you afford it? ”
"Okay, the baby in my belly is very stable, but it's not something that can be surprised at random." Zhang Yan said with a smile, looking at Yuan Luo and said,
"Yuan Meiren doesn't need to be in such a hurry, although I can't make the decision for you, but I can help you convey your request to Your Majesty, whether you should or not, and leave it to Your Majesty to decide, what do you think?"
Yuan Luo was stunned for a moment, and Fang said, "The queen mother is merciful, and the concubine has thanked the queen mother." ”
“…… Why did Niangniang respond to that Yuan beauty," After Yuan Luo withdrew, Shi Nan said angrily, "Yuan Meiren can't see the emperor at all, Niangniang just rejected her directly, it doesn't matter, why promise to convey it to everyone for her?" ”
Zhang Yan smiled faintly, "Why did I agree, why do you think so?" ”
Several palace people were stunned, and they knew that this was the queen mother testing herself. After a while, Shi Nan and Ming Feng were slightly dazed, Fu Yao half understood and half understood, but the rest of the palace people had already understood, Xin Yi looked around, and hurriedly said, "Niangniang, do you think that Yuan Meiren is not everyone's mind anyway, instead of hiding Yuan Meiren's affairs, it is better to convey it directly to everyone, and it also seems that Niangniang is generous and virtuous?" ”
Zhang Yan nodded, got up and walked a few steps, "Yuan Meiren has no grace, she is just the biological mother of King Huaiyang, I have done my best, why hide this matter, you must know that Weiyang Palace is a place with few secrets, if you ask Your Majesty to learn about it from other places in the future, you will think that I am stingy and damage the friendship between me and Your Majesty." ”
Shi Nan understood, and said ashamedly, "What Niangniang said is that it was the slave who said stupid things." ”
Zhang Yan pursed her lips and smiled, waved her hand and instructed Gan Tang, "Now that I understand, I can't wait to go and tell Your Majesty about this matter in person, you go and draw up an excerpt, let Yuan Meiren sign it, and hand it to the Xuanshu Palace." ”
Gan Tang curtched his knees, "No." ”
In the evening, Liu Ying returned to the Jiaofang Palace, and saw Zhang Yan sitting in front of the window with a light of flower and fruit tea, with a relaxed expression, with a faint maternal love in her expression, and her complexion was beautiful. ”
PS:
I hope that the 300th chapter can be written about the birth of this child! Also, about the name of this child, ahem, please don't expect too much, basically, the more a person lacks something, the more he thinks about something. Therefore, Xiao Baozi's final name, whether it sounds good or not, and the "mighty" he expects, may be a little far away.
