Lu Meiren snorted softly:

"September 13 is the emperor's birthday, I think that the emperor is not short of gold, silver and jewelry, I am afraid that I am used to seeing good things, so I want to do something with my own hands, but my female celebrity has always been not very good, I can only sew a belt."

If she wants clothes or something, it's just a little difficult for her.

Yun Ji nodded, indicating that her idea was right, and she looked at the belt carefully, it was not very outstanding, but it was not wrong either, the main thing was the mind.

Yun Ji followed her words and said:

"It's still the master who thinks thoughtfully."

It's just that when no one noticed, Yun Xi frowned, if she hadn't come to the palace today, she would have forgotten that the emperor's birthday was coming.

Chapter 21: Pregnant

Do you want to prepare a birthday gift for the emperor?

Yun Ji only thought about it for a day, but gave up this idea, first of all, she is different from Lu Meiren, Lu Meiren is a harem concubine, and it is natural for her to give the emperor a birthday gift, but she can't.

Secondly, she can't spare time.

Serving Lu Cairen took all her time during the day, and she didn't want to waste time staying up late at night.

Another point, she was sold into the palace, she has no money, no matter how much Gonggong Liu favors her, he will not stuff her with silver, she only has the savings of the past two years and the birthday gift given to her by Xiao Rongzi.

In terms of financial resources, she can't send anything to the emperor.

In terms of mind, she lived a poor life before entering the palace, and she could thread needles and threads, but a decent female celebrity would not, she was only learned by the monk clothing bureau after entering the palace, she was a little talented, but compared with the grandmothers of the clothing bureau, there is no comparison.

Yun Ji extinguished her thoughts, and after she recovered from her illness, Lu Meiren took her with her all day long.

Recently, Lu Meiren and Qiu Cairen have a good relationship, often go to Kunning Palace together to ask for peace, and occasionally come to sit with Yidian, after all, Lu Meiren's position is different, in Chonghua Palace, her position is the highest, speaking of which, if Lu Meiren cares a little, Qiu Cairen should have come to her every day to ask for peace.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather gradually cooled down, and the harem concubines and palace maids all changed into heavier autumn clothes.

On the eve of the Birthday Festival, Lu Meiren finally embroidered the belt, and after collecting the needle, she took a long breath and rubbed her shoulders:

"It's finally over."

Yun Xi came in with dinner, and when she heard this, she smiled: "The master has been preparing a birthday gift for the emperor recently, and the meal is not very useful, when the slave and maid went to the imperial dining room today, Gonggong Song also asked the slave and maid, but the meal is not to the master's taste?" ”

Lu Meiren is the more favored concubine among the new concubines, and she is also the only concubine who has been promoted, so the imperial dining room will naturally be attentive to Heyi Palace.

Lu Meiren's whole body was cowardly, and when she heard this, she wrinkled her nose:

"It's not that it's unpalatable, it's just that I don't have much appetite lately."

They are all human spirits, of course, they can hear that the imperial dining room is asking for food on the surface, but in fact, it is a test of Lu Meiren's attitude, and Lu Meiren's statement can at least make the imperial dining room feel at ease.

Yun Xi was a little surprised, she had the impression that Lu Meiren's appetite had always been very good, and many people would have a bitter summer, but Lu Meiren had no signs of this at all, and even when she was in Kunning Palace, she couldn't help but eat more pastries.

Without waiting for Yun Ji to think about it again, Lu Meiren had already picked up the wooden chopstick, ate a few bites selectively, and shook his head:

"Pull it off."

Yun Xi frowned lightly, she carefully observed Lu Meiren, and saw that Lu Meiren's face was ruddy, and her complexion was really good, so she had to swallow her doubts, she obediently withdrew the meal, but in her heart she remembered this matter, and planned to wait for the Wanshou Festival to ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look at the master.

The next day, Hallowe.

Yun Ji accompanied Lu Meiren to the banquet, and the road to the Taihe Hall today was very smooth, and she met many concubines on the way, but she didn't meet a single high position.

Lu Meiren and Qiu Cairen walked together, Qiu Cairen's gaze stayed on Yun Ji for a moment, Yun Ji lowered her eyes, of course she noticed Qiu Cairen's attention to her, but Qiu Cairen didn't do anything, she could only act as if she didn't know what to do.

When they arrived at the Taihe Palace, everyone found that today's high positions had come very early, and Lu Meiren muttered in a low voice:

"Is the sun coming out in the west today?"

Yun Xi tugged at her sleeve and whispered, "Master be cautious." ”

As soon as the words fell, she motioned to Lu Meiren to look at the steps, Lu Meiren didn't know why, looked up carefully, and found that something was wrong, many concubines were talking with a smile around a person.

There was no need for Yun Ji to explain, Qiu Cairen's face changed slightly:

"It's the Queen Mother."

Lu Meiren was shocked, she hadn't seen the Queen Mother since she entered the palace, it was said that the Queen Mother was unwell and had been recuperating in Cining Palace, and now she was actually out of the palace, is she sick?

No matter how many doubts in their hearts, Lu Meiren and Qiu Cairen respectfully stepped forward to say goodbye, Xu because today is the Halloween Day, the Queen Mother has been smiling all the time, nodded and asked them to get up, and asked Lu Meiren's identity.

Lu Meiren: "Concubine and Yidian beauty Lu Shi." ”

Although the Queen Mother has been in Cining Palace, she obviously knows everything about what is happening in the harem, she turned her head and smiled with the queen beside her:

"In this draft, you are bothered, the mourning family looks at these beauties of Peugeot."

Although she was talking to the queen, everyone could see who the queen mother was praising her, Lu Meiren's cheeks were red with shame, and the queen also smiled and agreed:

"Lu Meiren has always been well-behaved and decent, and the emperor likes her very much."

The Queen Mother nodded: "It's a good one." ”

When the words fell, the Queen Mother didn't say much, and talked about other topics with the queen, there were many concubines around her, but only the queen could win her favor.

Actually, no, there is still Concubine Jing, but Concubine Jing is not in good health and was unable to attend today.

Lu Meiren and Qiu Cairen took advantage of this gap and finally returned to their positions, the two of them were about the same, and they lived in the same house, so their positions were together and they sat at the same table.

A quarter of an hour later, Tan Yuanchu finally arrived, and the banquet officially began.

The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet was held not long ago, this time the Halloween was not very grand, Lu Meiren's position was low, and the distance from the emperor was also very far, Yun Xi looked up, the emperor was surrounded by everyone, she didn't see it very really, so she quickly lowered her head.

Today is the emperor's birthday, special grace, the imperial dining room to each table to prepare Taihu Lake silverfish, Taihu Lake silverfish is a tribute, even the harem concubines, it is rare to taste, all need the emperor's grace.

The whitebait is still steaming when it is served.

Lu Meiren took a chopstick with great interest, but frowned uncomfortably when she took it into her mouth.

Yang Jieyu, who was sitting in front of her, caught a glimpse, covered her lips and said sarcastically:

"Some people really don't have a blessed life, this Taihu Lake silverfish is rare and precious, if it weren't for the emperor's grace, some people may not be able to taste it for a lifetime, and they actually dislike it."

The song and dance covered up the farce in the position, Yang Jieyu's voice was not big or small, just enough to be heard before and after, but it would not reach the emperor's ears, Lu Mei's body stiffened, and she was not polite:

"Yang Jieyu is noble, she should be different from concubines, there are many opportunities to taste this tribute on weekdays, right?"

It is said that it is a tribute, and it is not available to the emperor's grace and concubine, Yang Jieyu naturally does not eat it often, Lu Meiren's words, but she is sarcastic Yang Jieyu, they are half a catty to eight taels, they are all people who can't eat on weekdays, what qualifications does Yang Jieyu have to laugh at others?

Yang Jieyu was annoyed, turned her head to Lu Meiren and said coldly:

"The emperor is only fortunate to have you for a few days, but he has made you frivolous, it seems that the lesson of that day is not enough for Lu Meiren to remember for a long time."

Lu Meiren's eyes suddenly turned cold, and she hooked the corners of her lips: "Not as good as Yang Jieyu." ”

Yang Jieyu was stunned for a while, and then she reacted, what Lu Meiren said was not as frivolous as her, Yang Jieyu was so angry that she choked, if she wasn't in the Taihe Palace, I was afraid that she would have to stand up and teach Lu Meiren a lesson.

Qiu Cairen was dumbfounded, Yun Ji didn't expect Lu Meiren's combat power to be so strong, and she dared to face Yang Jieyu head-on.

When she was about to pull Lu Meiren slowly, Lu Meiren had already lowered her head and ignored Yang Jieyu, she looked at the fish on the chopsticks, frowned for a long time, and swallowed it.

There is no way, Yang Jieyu is right about one thing, it is the emperor's grace to reward Taihu Lake silverfish at each table, if she spits it out, she will inevitably be installed by Yang Jieyu with a disrespectful name for the emperor.

Lu Meiren did not reject fish in the past, but today for some reason, she always felt that the fish in her mouth had a fishy smell, which aroused a burst of nausea in her heart and made her face a little pale.

Yun Ji sensed that something was wrong, bent down, and whispered anxiously:

"What's wrong with the master?"

Lu Meiren covered her lips and shook her head, she wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, she couldn't suppress the nausea anymore, and immediately retched.

The people around exclaimed, and the singing and dancing could not hide the chaos here, Yang Jieyu heard the movement and hid aside in disgust, and the Taihe Hall was quiet because of the changes here.

Yun Xi didn't care a lot, she immediately supported Lu Meiren, Lu Meiren's abnormality kept echoing in her mind in the past few days, and a guess suddenly rose in her heart, which made her unconsciously clench the handkerchief in her sleeve.

Yun Ji's whole attitude changed, she looked at Lu Cairen with great concern, protected Lu Meiren with one hand, and looked down at the food on the table vigilantly.

But no one knew that Yun Xi's mind was in a mess at the moment.

Not only her, but many people had some guesses, and for a while, the atmosphere in the hall became a little solidified, and the concubines who were close to Lu Meiren opened a little distance without a trace.

Tan Yuanchu noticed this at the first moment of the accident, he raised his eyes and saw that the woman was protecting Lu Meiren tightly, the song and dance stopped, Lu Meiren's retching sound had not stopped, her face was pale in discomfort, and she was about to cry.

Tan Yuanchu frowned:

"What happened?"

Xu Shunfu quickly sent someone to inquire back, and when he heard the words of the palace people, the queen's eyes flashed slightly, and the smile on Concubine De's face was a little faint, but Rong Zhaoyi lowered her head and couldn't see any emotion.

Tan Yuan Chu paused: "Please ask the doctor." ”

Lu Meiren's condition was not suitable for staying in the Taihe Palace, and she was quickly sent to the side hall, Lu Meiren was a little panicked, she grabbed Yun Xi's wrist, and asked anxiously:

"Yun Xi, what's wrong with me, have I been calculated?"

Xu Shunfu got the order, and when he heard this sentence as soon as he stepped into the side hall, he couldn't cry or laugh for a while.

Yun Ji didn't dare to say anything that made the master look forward to it, so she could only whisper to reassure:

"Master, don't worry, the imperial doctor will be here soon."

If it is really the same as she guessed, the master may have an unexpected joy today.

It's just that happiness is the master's joy, Yun Xi's mood is a little complicated, she thought that Lu Meiren would be pregnant, but she never thought that it would come so quickly.

Lu Meiren has been in the palace for too short, she has no foundation in the palace, and the emperor's favor for her is not top-notch in the palace, and she even offended Yang Jieyu.

The Imperial Physician arrived soon, and after waiting for the pulse, the Imperial Physician smiled, Yun Xi pursed her lips lightly, and lowered her eyelids.

"Congratulations to Lu Meiren, Lu Meiren is a happy pulse, and she is half a month pregnant."

Lu Meiren was stunned, everyone was a little stupid, and it took a while to come back to her senses, and she surprised in disbelief:

"Really?!"

Imperial Doctor: "Regarding the imperial heir, Weichen doesn't dare to say anything." ”

Xu Shunfu got the letter, first congratulated Lu Meiren, and immediately turned around and went out to report this matter to the emperor, but before leaving, Xu Shunfu subconsciously glanced at the people around Lu Meiren.

She hung her head, a little quiet.
