Chapter 241: The Second Prince
The full moon banquet of the second prince ended hastily, and even the emperor did not show up, only letting Yu Bao send a gift.
The paler Yumeiren's face became paler, and she didn't know if she was tired or what, Lin Qingluan glanced at her lightly, and sighed slightly in her heart.
It was Zhai Hanjing, but he seemed to be a little more interested, it turned out that when he came, he only glanced at the second prince a few times, but now he was interested in coming over to take a closer look, and after reading it, he also praised Yumeiren.
Some people may think that this is because the emperor did not come, and the queen made a face for Yumeiren, but Lin Qingluan felt that Zhai Hanjing was really happy.
Probably because of ...... The emperor's disdain to the second prince reassured her.
Lin Qingluan raised her eyes, her eyes swept over the four concubines, Concubine Yun's lower abdomen was already very obvious, and the other three concubines were still pregnant, so they couldn't see it.
Concubine Wan is really in a bad state, and at a glance, you can see that she is covered with thick powder, and her summer clothes are hanging empty on her body, and she is even thinner.
Why bother.
Lin Qingluan looked away, but happened to see a vicious and unwilling gaze, she paused, and in the blink of an eye, Concubine Rou had returned to her original lively and bright appearance, chatting with Concubine Fang beside her, and she still looked innocent when she smiled.
Looking at Concubine Li, who didn't know anything and only stroked her stomach and smiled lightly, Lin Qingluan couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Master, what's wrong?" An Lan noticed Lin Qingluan's mood swings, and leaned over and asked in a low voice.
Lin Qingluan shook his head slightly, and after a while, he couldn't bear it, and said nosyly: "Find someone to send to the Chengxiang Palace to protect Concubine Rou." ”
"Yes." An Lan immediately replied, without even asking why.
Lin Qingluan was silent for a moment, and then smiled helplessly, feeling that he simply didn't know what to do. I can't protect myself, and I still have the heart to help others.
It's just a gesture, if she still can't dodge, at least Lin Qingluan won't feel ashamed when she thinks about it in the future.
But peace of mind.
Because of the war in the south, Lin Qingluan originally wanted to take a walk outside, but the weather was too hot, and the more she walked, the more upset she became, and she was about to turn around and go back to Wan'an Palace, but she saw Concubine Yun, Concubine Li and Concubine Rou sitting in the pavilion, chatting about something.
Lin Qingluan didn't want to go over, but she didn't want to be seen by Concubine Rou's sharp eyes.
The three of them saluted her, and Lin Qingluan couldn't pretend to be fine, so she had to walk over and smile: "What are you talking about, so happy." ”
"The concubine is envious of Sister Yunfei, the third princess Yuxue is cute, Sister Yunfei said that she can sit up now, and the concubine really likes it." Rou Concubine hurriedly said.
Lin Qingluan bowed: "The third princess is indeed getting more and more cute." ”
"Lao Niangniang praised, the little tiger sent by Niangniang a few days ago, the princess likes it very much, and the concubine has not thanked Niangniang." Concubine Yun said with a smile.
Lin Qingluan shook his head: "It's just a gadget." ”
A few people casually talked about the child's interesting stories, Concubine Li was pregnant for the first time, and she was really young, her eyes were shining to look at this and that, and she gently stroked her stomach from time to time, her face was full of gentleness.
Lin Qingluan couldn't help but laugh when she saw it, she only felt that Concubine Li was really a simple person, and it even reminded her of ...... Concubine Wan when she first entered the palace last year.
Her eyes flashed slightly, and she glanced at Concubine Rou again, Concubine Rou was still smiling, but those eyes always made people feel chills for no reason.
Concubine Yun seemed to be unconscious, and continued to talk about some interesting stories about parenting, she is really a wonderful person, and the disturbances in this palace always have nothing to do with her, and because there is no family background and the emperor's favoritism, everyone does not embarrass her, so that she is like an ordinary mother at this time, smiling gently and indifferently.
If Concubine Li didn't have such a family background and didn't have anyone around her, maybe she would be like Concubine Yun.
Lin Qingluan smiled and chatted with a few people for a while, seeing that the sun was about to set in the west, the four of them were ready to disperse.
Before Concubine Yun left, she glanced at Lin Qingluan with some concern, and even asked in a low voice, "Niangniang is not comfortable?" I look thinner than a few days ago. ”
"It's always like this in the summer, it's very hot, I can't eat and sleep well." Lin Qingluan said with a smile.
Concubine Yun nodded, but she was not an ignorant person, so she persuaded in the end: "General Ji people have their own natural appearance, and it is important for Niang Niang to take care of herself." ”
"Hongu knows." Lin Qingluan nodded with a smile, patted Concubine Yun's hand, and didn't say anything more.
Back in Wan'an Palace, I didn't expect Liu Yuanju to wait. As soon as Lin Qingluan saw him, he asked, "How?" Can the epidemic be solved? ”
"Hey." Speaking of this Liu Yuan's judgment, he motioned to Lin Qingluan to stretch out his hand to ask for a pulse, and sighed, "The hospital is busy, but now there are many pregnant concubines in the harem, and the second prince can't leave people......
"Court Liu's sentence has worked hard." Lin Qingluan said softly, "The epidemic situation in the south is critical, and the court should also take care of yourself." ”
Liu Yuanju showed a flattered look, withdrew his hand, and said with a smile: "Niangniang is still bitter summer? ”
"It's okay, it's more comfortable than in previous years." Lin Qingluan didn't want to drink those bitter pills, so he replied casually.
Liu Yuanjuan recalled Lin Qingluan's pulse, and felt that something seemed wrong, but Lin Qingluan was asking about the body of the second prince again, and Liu Yuanjuan ignored the strangeness that flashed in his mind, and replied: "The second prince was born prematurely for a long time, and he was already weak in the womb, so he needs to be carefully raised." ”
"Well, what about Yumei?" Lin Qingluan raised her eyelids and looked over, how could Liu Yuanju not understand what she meant?
It's just that this matter is really difficult to say, and Liu Yuan sentenced: "The minister doesn't know." ”
"Well, it's been hard work for Liu Yuan recently, but you don't have to always ask for a pulse from this palace. The palace is just a bit of a bitter summer, and there is nothing unusual, or the epidemic in the south is important. Lin Qingluan frowned, and sighed again, "It's really not peaceful......
Judge Liu also sighed.
Natural disasters catch up with man-made disasters, isn't it not peaceful?
He also knew that Lin Yaochen went to the south with his injuries, thinking that it was normal for Lin Qingluan to be so worried, so he only advised her not to worry, this epidemic is not too difficult to treat.
"Hey." Lin Qingluan held his head and sighed, Mu Tang came over and asked carefully, "What does the master want to use at night?" ”
"I don't think about it......" Lin Qingluan didn't finish speaking, seeing An Lan and Mu Tang showing worried looks, she sighed, "You don't have to serve those meats, just make a few cold dishes." ”
After her words, Mu Tang went happily. Seeing that Lin Qingluan was really not interested, An Lan simply called Mu Yun over and asked her to tell Lin Qingluan about the affairs of each palace, divert her attention, and if there was anything interesting, she could still make the master happy.
Mu Yun also understood what she meant, and opened his mouth to talk about the matter of Kunning Palace first: "Since Aunt Jinru came back, the queen mother has relied more and more on her, I heard that now Aunt Jinru is resting outside the queen's bedroom, and every few days she calls the imperial doctor to change the prescription for Aunt Jinru. ”
"Well, how is Jinru's body?" Lin Qingluan asked casually without much care.
Mu Yun shook his head and sighed: "Aunt Jinru committed a big crime in the Shen Criminal Division, and she took care of her body, which also affects her longevity. ”
Lin Qingluan nodded and continued to listen to Mu Yun's rumors about Kunning Palace.
These are not conclusive news to inquire about paintings, but rumors that almost everyone in the harem knows.
"When the second prince was born, the queen mother was supposed to go to the Liangyi Palace to sit down, but ......" Mu Yun paused, "but the eldest prince happened to be sick, and the queen mother only ordered Concubine Fang to take a good look, and everyone said that in fact, the eldest prince was fine that day." ”
Lin Qingluan paused slightly, she didn't know this, they were still in the other palace at that time, but they were just ...... The emperor was also in the palace at the time, didn't anyone go to the Liangyi Palace?
