Chapter 8: Couples of Eaters
Since the guest nurse has said it, the statement of "musk to miscarriage" will not be false, and there is no need to ask the imperial doctor for verification.
Therefore, before the imperial doctor arrived, Zhu Youxiao left in a hurry.
Obviously, he is for the dragon heir in Zhang Yan's belly.
In fact, from a medical point of view, natural musk has a unique and irritating fragrance, and also contains a steroidal hormone called "muskone", which can cause long-term contraction of the uterus, and it is indeed possible to cause miscarriage.
However, after a few hundred years, the forest musk deer has become a first-class protected animal, and the natural musk has been replaced by artificial musk.
Synthetic musk basically retains the unique fragrance of natural musk, but without various hormones, even if it is used in perfume or bone strengthening cream, it will not cause miscarriage in pregnant women.
Nevertheless, for the sake of safety, many ointments or perfumes containing artificial musk are specifically marked with the words "use with caution by pregnant women" or "forbidden for pregnant women".
"Little Princess......
Hearing Liu Ruyan's snorting voice, Wang Li couldn't help but tremble.
On the stone table, five hundred taels of silver!
Sparkle!
Liu Ruyan, Xu Caifeng and Lin Xue'er gathered around the table, each holding several of them, and they all refused to put it down.
"Little princess, you have a share, right?"
"Little Princess, you don't have to worry about making the bed and washing and warming the food in the future, okay?"
"Little Princess, in less than a day in Kunning Palace, you got 1,700 taels of silver, and you were promoted to the former eunuch from the Liupin Palace, you should also give us some reward, right?"
"Little princess, as long as you have us, you will never go hungry in the palace!"
Alas! It's annoying to be surrounded by women!
It's true!
It is not so much that the three palace maids are gathered around the stone table, but that they are gathered around Wang Li.
Because Wang Li was a eunuch, they had almost no scruples and tried their best to please him.
At this time, Wang Li almost hugged left and right!
The words of several palace maids are already obvious: they are willing to be a "husband and wife" with Wang Li!
In this scene, Lin Xiaoru, Song Wenhui and Xu Kang could only envy, jealousy and hatred.
"Uh...... This one...... Long live the Lord, don't you mean that I don't have to go to the Treasure Money Division? ”
"That's right, Long live the Lord has spoken, who would dare to transfer you to the Treasure Money Division?"
"Good! Take whatever money is on the table! Take as much as you can! But you can only take it once! You can only hold it by hand! Hahaha! ”
"Little Princess, you didn't lie, did you?"
"A gentleman's words, the horse is hard to chase! Take it, take it! Take as much as you can! ”
With permission, the three of them did not hesitate any longer.
In Wang Li's opinion, if he can only use his hands, each person can take a maximum of three or five silver.
In order to make the three of them happy, for the convenience of everywhere in the future, give them a few taels of silver to count as a fart!
However, the king immediately regretted it!
I'll go!
Is there such a thing as silver?
That Liu Ruyan, with her hands crossed and hugging her lower abdomen, Xu Caifeng and Lin Xue'er kept putting them in her hands like a pile of squares!
In the blink of an eye, she hugged more than thirty!
However, she is not yet satisfied!
The whole body leaned back slightly, and the silver was still being put on her body one after another!
I'll go!
The silver piled up to her chest, and it didn't even fall!
Nima!
They're still piling up!
Heap all the way to her chin!
Alack......
More than seventy pieces of silver, and that's it!
"Thank you, little princess! Little prince Wan Fu Jin'an! Hee-hee......"
Liu Ruyan turned around and left, Wang Li wanted to die!
It's just one!
Lin Xueer is concocting the same method again, putting silver on Xu Caifeng's body!
Alas!
They did use their hands, not in their sleeves!
I'm really embarrassed to take it back!
What's more, all three are little beauties!
That's it, that's it!
When I have stepped on the ground, I will let you warm your bed every day!
Hum!
"Little princess, the queen mother just said: the second room in the Westinghouse is now your bedroom!"
"Westinghouse? Which side is the West? ”
Wang Li raised his eyes and looked around, his face full of astonishment.
At this moment,
Lin Xiaoru stood up and couldn't wait to ask, "Aunt Ruyan, the queen's mother...... Have you assigned me a room? ”
"Yes! All three of you live in the East House, the first room! ”
"East ...... East House? ”
Lin Xiaoru's face became more ugly than pork liver.
Isn't the first room in the East House next to the thatched pit?
Moreover, it is still a room for three people!
Depend on!
The queen is too eccentric!
People are better than people, and they will really be angry!
That Wang Ergou, why do you live in a single room alone?
Why is there a chance to find someone to warm the bed?
Alas, that's it!
Admit it!
Who called him a ruthless man!
Who told him to do great things?
Alas!
On the second day of purification, he can run everywhere, except for Cui Chengxiu, the secretary of the military department, he is the only one!
Consider oneself inferior to another!
That's it, as long as you can stay in Kunning Palace, you will have a chance to make a fortune sooner or later!
Kunning Palace, except for daily cleaning, actually doesn't have much to do.
Moreover, Zhang Yan knew that the four of them had just been cleansed, and she specially told Lan Ruomei that she did not assign things to the four of them.
The four of them went back to their rooms, but Lan Ruomei stayed in Zhang Yan's bedroom.
"Yan'er, Wang Ergou has indeed made meritorious contributions, but I always feel that there is something wrong with him, so don't leave him here!"
"That's right! He has only been here for a long time, and the celebrant will immediately promote him to an official, there is indeed a problem! ”
"In that case, why did you keep him?"
"Aunt Lan, think about it the other way around: if he is Wei Zhongxian's person, why did the celebrant promote him to an official? Isn't it self-confessing?
He finally got in, but the celebrant transferred him to the Treasure Money Division, didn't he fall short? ”
Lan Ruomei couldn't refute, Zhang Yan smiled softly: "Didn't you say that when he was in a couplet, Wu Chunfu happened to be next to him!" ”
Saying this, Lan Ruomei suddenly realized.
It's obvious: Wu Chunfu thinks he's a talent and wants to recruit him into his command, so he can't wait to show his goodwill!
This just shows that he is not Wei Zhongxian's henchman!
After figuring out the reason, Lan Ruomei no longer objected, called Lin Xue'er and Xu Caifeng, and hurriedly decocted the medicine according to the prescription.
……
In Xian'an Palace, Ke Yinyue was so angry that she gritted her teeth.
She expected that Zhu Youxiao was going to Kunning Palace, so she concealed it from the imperial doctor in the palace and pasted musk bone cream on him.
Unexpectedly, halfway to kill a king and two dogs!
Although Zhu Youxiao did not blame, the queen's side will still be vigilant!
If you want to make it happen, it will be even more difficult!
In fact, several princes and princesses died early, and several princes and princesses were stillborn, which was indeed done by Keyinyue!
Concubine Zhang Yu, who was pregnant, but was starved to death, was also killed by Wei Zhongxian's false decree because she offended Ke Yinyue!
Concubine Fan Hui, who once gave birth to the second prince, quietly stored food in the palace because of the experience of Concubine Zhang Yu;
It didn't take long for him to be imprisoned by Ke Yinyue for half a month!
It was with the hidden food that Concubine Fan Hui survived!
Zhu Youxiao would never have imagined that his concubines and the children in their wombs, as well as the few princes and princesses who were fortunate enough to be born, were all victimized by his "grateful" nursing mother!
In fact, what Wei Zhongxian and Ke Yinyue did was not to plot the throne, but for their own selfishness!
In Wei Zhongxian's view, Zhu Youxiao is a living treasure!
It is precisely because he is obsessed with being a craftsman all day long and does not ask about the government and politics that Wei Zhongxian has the opportunity to lean into the government and the opposition!
If Zhu Youxiao has an heir, if there is a prince who is "not easy to control", Wei Zhongxian's good days will come to an end!
Fortunately, this living treasure is only 23 years old!
Moreover, he is not addicted to women, and he does not take pills indiscriminately!
It stands to reason that he will live to be at least fifty or sixty years old!
At this time, Wei Zhongxian was nearly sixty, if this was the case, he would basically not worry about the rest of his life!
However, man is not as good as heaven!
Zhu Youxiao accidentally fell into the lake and fell into the root of the disease, the doctor was helpless, and it was estimated that his life would be short!
In Wei Zhongxian's opinion, Zhang Yan is very cunning!
She already knew that she was pregnant, but she hid it for two months!
Moreover, she also dismissed the eunuchs and palace maids around her, leaving only a few henchmen!
If Zhu Youxiao dies, if Zhang Yan gives birth to the prince safely, with her ingenuity, it is likely that she will listen to the government!
really let her gain power, and the first ones to get rid of must be Wei Zhongxian and Ke Yinyue!
Therefore, when they learned that Zhang Yan was pregnant with the prince, the two of them could no longer hold their breath.
"She's already vigilant, and it's hard for us to do it. However, it is not without chance! ”
"We don't have much time!" Wei Zhongxian shook his head, with a look of worry on his face:
"Doctor An told me, long live the Lord this is a return to the light! I guess it's been half a month! ”
Ke Yinyue thought for a moment and smiled mysteriously: "This matter should have spread all over the harem." If I'm not mistaken, tomorrow, the concubines of all palaces will go to congratulate me. This is the perfect opportunity to get close to her! ”
Wei Zhongxian was noncommittal, and Ke Yinyue continued to smile: "Have you forgotten the maid beside Concubine Li Cheng? This time, she will come out, and great things will be done! ”
"I can only let her try! These days, let's not show up! ”
"I'm doing something, what else are you worried about?"
"Hahaha!"
Wei Zhongxian laughed and took Ke Yinyue into his arms.
In the palace, there are countless "couples" like Wei Zhongxian and Ke Yinyue!
According to the rules of the Ming Dynasty palace, the eunuchs on duty could not cook in the palace, and they could only eat their own cold food when it was time to eat.
However, the palace maid can make a fire!
As a result, the eunuchs would ask familiar palace maids to help warm the rice, and this situation was called "opposite food", or "vegetable households".
Over time, many "anti-food" have developed into "mutual warmers", almost no different from ordinary couples!
For more than 100 years in the early Ming Dynasty, this phenomenon of "eating against food" was still sneaky.
Since Emperor Wanli, this phenomenon has almost been public, and if a palace maid has no companion for a long time, she will be ridiculed by other palace maids!
The most exaggerated thing is that the emperors of all dynasties after Wanli have shown acquiescence to this phenomenon!
Ke Yinyue's original "antithesis" was actually the Wei Dynasty!
He recommended Wang An, the eunuch of Bingbi, many times, and Wei Zhongxian was promoted all the way.
However, Wei Zhongxian gained a little momentum and immediately squeezed out the great benefactor Wei Chao!
It was at this time that Ke Yinyue was promised by Zhu Youxiao to Wei Zhongxian, and the Xian'an Palace was given to the two to live in.
"Ahem...... Ahem......"
Cui Chengxiu coughed a few times, didn't care about the two of them, and strode in.
"What's the matter?"
Wei Zhongxian did not evade, still hugging Ke Yinyue.
"Father-in-law! I just found out: that Liaodong Governor Yuan Chonghuan is likely to be the Donglin Party! ”
"Donglin Party?!" Wei Zhongxian pushed Ke Yinyue away and bounced up: "Are you sure?" Is he really the Donglin Party? ”
