Chapter Eighty-Eight: Concubine Ming

The Queen Mother took Hui Concubine and the second princess back to Shou'an Palace, but she never talked to Hui Concubine again, and her face was also faint, Hui Concubine was worried, I don't know if the Queen Mother will protect her this time, she watched the Queen Mother there and softly coaxed the second princess, and she didn't dare to speak.

After the imperial doctor looked at the injuries on her hands and arms for the second princess, and rubbed the medicine, the second princess may have been tired of crying and fell asleep in the arms of the queen mother.

The Queen Mother looked at the second princess with her eyes closed and tears on her eyelashes, gently wiped away the tears that were about to fall for her with a handkerchief, put the person on the bed gently, and ordered her personal palace maid Lingxiu to personally guard the second princess on the side, and turned around and walked out of the room.

Concubine Ming glanced at the second princess on the bed distressedly, sighed silently, and followed the queen mother out of the room, without giving Concubine Hui a look during the whole process.

Concubine Hui saw Concubine Ming go out and hurriedly chased after her.

The Queen Mother was sitting outside and was asking Laifu, the great eunuch of Shou'an Palace, "How is Qu Cairen's situation?" ”

Laifu replied: "The imperial doctor just went to see it, and I heard that it was an inducing drug, but after all, the time has not yet come, and it may not be so easy to give birth." ”

When the queen mother heard this, she threw off the eye knife of the concubine who happened to come out, and asked Laifu again: "Has the queen passed?" ”

Laifu said: "The queen mother may have just heard the news, and she has already rushed over at this time." ”

"Heh......" The Queen Mother laughed mockingly, wanting to say something, but seeing Hui Concubine swallowing back the words in her mouth again, she said to Lingyuan: "Take Hui Concubine down to rest first, don't bother hurting the fetus in your womb." ”

Concubine Hui squeezed out a smile and said, "Queen Mother, the concubine is not tired at this time, and the concubine is not at ease with the second princess, the concubine wants to wait here for the second princess to wake up." She hadn't heard the assurances in her favor from the Queen Mother's mouth, and she didn't want to go on like this.

The Queen Mother's eyes fell on Hui Concubine, and the expression on her face did not change in the slightest, but it made Hui Concubine feel that her whole person had been seen through by the Queen Mother.

Just when Concubine Hui couldn't stand it and wanted to kneel in front of the Queen Mother to admit her mistake, the Queen Mother looked away from her eyes and said, "Concubine Hui, do you know that the most important thing now is the fetus in your womb?" ”

Concubine Hui was stunned, as if she understood something from the Queen Mother's words, and saluted the Queen Mother, "The concubine thanks the Queen Mother for her teaching, the concubine will go down to rest." ”

After speaking, Concubine Hui relaxed and left the main hall of Shou'an Palace, and went to the side hall to rest with Lingyuan.

She thought that since the Queen Mother said that the most important thing now is the fetus in her womb, it means that for the sake of the fetus in her womb, the emperor will not do anything to her.

Concubine Ming looked at Concubine Hui's back and shook her head secretly, her niece was really not smart.

After Concubine Hui went out, Concubine Ming looked at the Queen Mother with a guilty face, and said: "The Ming family has no way to teach a daughter, and it is really a shame to teach such a daughter who does not know the importance of it." ”

Although the Queen Mother was angry with Concubine Hui, she would not be angry with Concubine Ming and the Ming family, she shook her head and comforted Concubine Ming: "You, you are just too careful, Concubine Hui's personal behavior, where does the entire Ming family be involved?" If the Ming family really has no way to teach their daughters, how can they teach a loyal and kind person like you, old sister? ”

"The mourning family still remembers when the mourning mother and son were rejected by the emperor, sister, how you helped the mourning mother and son, and interceded for the mourning mother and son in front of the emperor, if it weren't for your sister's secret care in those years, the mourning mother and son might have been tortured to death before the emperor changed his mind."

This matter is not only remembered by the Queen Mother, but also by the Emperor.

It was because I remembered the secret help of the Ming concubine back then, so after the death of the first emperor, the unborn concubines in the palace were either sent to the first emperor for burial, or sent to the royal temple for cultivation.

Concubine Ming, who did not give birth to a son and a half daughter for the emperor, stayed in the palace in the name of staying with the queen mother, enjoying the honor of the concubine, and the Ming family is still glorious.

Concubine Hui was able to be in the position of concubine, not only because of her stomach fighting for the second princess, but also because of Concubine Ming.

If it weren't for Concubine Ming's face, the emperor would not have such a high tolerance for Concubine Hui.

The emperor is a person who misses the old love, if Concubine Hui can honestly not be a demon in the palace, then she will not be sad in the palace with the good fate accumulated by Concubine Ming.

It's just that Hui Concubine is really ......

The Queen Mother shook her head again and said to Concubine Ming: "Concubine Hui is indeed a bit too much this time, the emperor is afraid that he is ruthless, and it is not just for the sake of Qu Cairen, you see that she is to Lan'er, if we don't know that Lan'er came out of her belly, she is not Lan'er's own mother." ”

Concubine Hui said that she would punish Qu Cairen for the sake of the second princess, but if she really cared about the second princess, when she saw that the second princess was injured, she didn't immediately find a doctor to see the injury for the second princess, but threw the second princess aside and ran to punish Qu Cairen first.

And the second princess was scared like that at that time, she didn't even notice.

Concubine Ming listened to what the Queen Mother said, and lowered her head in shame, she felt ashamed to have such a niece who didn't know the severity, and she was not as angry with Hui Concubine as the Queen Mother was with Hui Concubine, the second princess was born weak, she took care of the second princess day and night for two years, and the second princess was much heavier than Hui Concubine in her heart.

Hui Concubine doesn't take the second princess to heart, regardless of the life or death of the second princess, she really can't wait to slap Hui Concubine a few times to see if she can wake her up and let her know how to be a qualified mother.

The reason why she didn't do this was that firstly, there was the Queen Mother, she just wanted to teach her niece that she could not act beyond the Queen Mother, and secondly, Concubine Hui was now more than seven months pregnant, and she also had to take care of the fetus in Concubine Hui's womb.

Concubine Ming said: "Concubine Hui misbehaved, misbehaved, no matter how the emperor punished her, she deserved it, if the fetus in Qu Cairen's womb has three long and two short, the emperor wants her to pay for her life, and the Ming family and I will not have any complaints." ”

The Queen Mother shook her head and said, "Where is it as serious as you said?" Even for the sake of you and the second princess, the emperor will not let Concubine Hui pay for her life, at most, she will be demoted. ”

Concubine Ming said: "She did such a thing, and it was too cheap for her to only reduce her position." ”

The Queen Mother said: "After all, Concubine Hui gave birth to the second princess for the emperor, and now she is still pregnant with the imperial heir in her belly, which can be regarded as meritorious." Don't be too harsh on her when you look back, let her relax and give birth to the fetus in her womb. ”

Concubine Ming nodded in response, "Don't worry, Niangniang, I understand, nothing is as important as the imperial heir." ”
