As soon as the queen couldn't afford to get sick, the direction of the wind in the palace changed in a blink of an eye, and Jian Qiu came out of Nanfu, listening to the discussions of people coming and going to the palace along the road, and couldn't help but sneer. Depending on who she is, she can't get past the queen mother, and let's be beautiful for a while.

"I went to send a newly cut summer dress to Yongshou Palace yesterday, and when I saw Concubine Xi's belly, it seemed to be bigger than the ordinary five months pregnant."

"It's really strange, after Concubine Xi was pregnant, her body didn't rise, why is her belly so big?"

"I heard that Concubine Xi was pregnant outside the palace, and I couldn't see it in the first three months, but I could see it when I was a month old, this baby, I'm afraid it's not the emperor's......"

Jian Qiu paused suddenly, walked to the edge of the wall, listened carefully for a while, was horrified in his heart, turned around and hurried back to Jingren Palace.

"Really?" The queen leaned on the head of the bed, her face full of surprise and a little surprise, and suddenly frowned vigilantly, "Let people push behind the scenes, pour dirty water on Zhen Huan, as long as this child is born with a stain, this palace has a way to deal with Concubine Xi." A ruthless light flashed in her eyes, "First bring down Concubine Xi, then Concubine Rong, and Concubine Hui, don't even think about escaping." ”

Jianqiu responded to the order.

With a sigh of relief, the queen closed her eyes a little tiredly: "How is Concubine Jin's voice trained?" ”

"The results are remarkable, and there are already three points of similarity." Jianqiu replied.

"That's good." The queen sighed lightly, "If it weren't for the situation, this palace wouldn't want to support the girl of the Tong family, but fortunately, Concubine Jin is not a deep city, and this palace is safe to use." ”

However, before Concubine Jin was favored, Shun Guiren was the first to regain favor, as if it was overnight, and Ning Chang, who was already favored, was promoted again, and the two of them were like flowers blooming on the branches, and they were in the limelight for a while.

"Shun Guiren is silent, why did he return to favor again? Hasn't she slept in a long time? Although the queen asked her to practice for a few more months and wait for the Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, but where can she take her time in the current situation, she hurriedly instructed Meijing, "Today is the first day of the new year, the emperor will definitely visit the queen in Jingren Palace, you go and tell the masters of Nanfu, just say that the palace will add two more hours of practice singing tonight, so that they must come over." ”

"Yes." The view is gone in no time.

At night, the emperor came to see the queen after dealing with government affairs, and was talking to her, when he suddenly heard a faint singing voice, singing Jiangnan Minor, the tone was soft and tactful, evoking the emperor's memories of being silent for a long time, although it was not very similar, but it was also heartwarming.

"Who's singing?" The emperor asked.

The queen's face changed slightly, and she could stabilize the expression on her face, she scolded Concubine Jin for being stupid in her heart, but now she had to send it: "It seems to be a voice from the direction of Yonghe Palace, why don't you go over and take a look?" ”

"Then the queen should rest early, and I will go to see Concubine Jin." The emperor got up, and after a few words of concern, he left Jingren Palace without looking back.

Jian Qiu knelt on the ground, not daring to look up at the queen's face.

"Jiangnan can pick lotus, lotus leaves He Tiantian, there are double carps, play between the blue waves, fish play lotus leaves east, fish play lotus leaves south, who is a daughter in the depths of lotus leaves, laugh and throw a lotus ...... across the water"

"E-Niang sings so well." The seventh elder brother applauded the venue very much.

An Lingrong put away the end note, laughed out loud, and hugged the seventh elder brother: "Little slippery head, will you still be happy?" ”

"Although the seventh elder brother is small, he also knows whether it sounds good or not, and Niangniang's singing voice is unmatched in the palace, why is it hidden?" Shun Guiren asked on the side.

"It's enough for a woman in the palace to have a skill, everyone in the palace knows that I am good at cooking, so why should I provoke right and wrong again." An Lingrong looked up at the dark sky without stars and moons today, and the dark night was reflected in his eyes, so deep that he couldn't see the end.

In her previous life, she also became the emperor's new favorite with this "lotus picking song", until later I learned that this song was not adapted by the master of Nanfu, but when the queen of Chunyuan and the emperor picked lotus in the summer, she sang casually, and the graceful singing greeted the wind between the lotus leaves, and pulled the emperor into the whirlpool of love.

This song is equivalent to a love work between the emperor and Queen Chunyuan, which is of great significance, so when An Lingrong knew that Concubine Jin was secretly practicing this song, she guessed what the queen was going to do next.

The queen wanted to let Concubine Jin practice hard and then be favored in one fell swoop, but she refused to let it.

An Lingrong blinked her eyes slightly, her expression returned to normal, she looked at Shun Guiren, and said with some guilt: "Concubine Jin has no brains, and she can't bear it if she is a little excited, but it's hard for you." ”

"It is the honor of a concubine to be able to serve Niangniang." Shun Guiren said with a light smile, "The concubine serves the emperor not because of the love between men and women, but because of respect for him as the monarch of the world. Besides......" She paused slightly, leaned into An Lingrong's ear and whispered, "The emperor is old, and many times he will be unable to do it, and the concubine feels quite relaxed." ”

An Lingrong was taken aback, it was hard to imagine that the noble man Shun would say such a wild word with this cold and rippling face, he couldn't help but feel hot on his face, shook the handkerchief and slapped her lightly, and said angrily: "You are thick-skinned, so you can say this kind of thing on your lips?" ”

Shun Guiren covered his mouth and laughed twice: "What is this, the concubine and Ning Guiren often say in private, Niangniang doesn't know." Seeing that An Lingrong was about to beat her again, he was busy begging for mercy and skipped this topic, "Recently, there have been rumors in the palace, all of which say that the origin of the dragon fetus in Concubine Xi's womb is unknown, does Niangniang know about this?" ”

"Of course I know." An Lingrong twisted his handkerchief to wipe the thin sweat on Honghao's forehead, and let him play, "You don't have to worry about this, you can inadvertently mention a few words when you are alone with the emperor, you can control the proportions yourself, don't make the emperor angry." ”

Shun Guiren's eyes turned around, and he immediately came to his senses, and the corners of his mouth pursed a deep smile, and he nodded yes.

The rumors were rampant, and finally reached the ears of the Queen Mother and the Emperor.

On this day, it happened that the king of Guojun came to the palace to bid farewell to the queen mother: "Erchen is a character who can't stay, and recently plans to travel to Shengjing, and the luggage has been packed. ”

"I'm used to you running around, and staying in Beijing to recuperate these days makes me a little unaccustomed to it." The emperor has always been happy to see the success of King Guojun's travel through the mountains and rivers, and mentioned it with a smile, "I heard that you have been recuperating for a while, and the Mengguo Mansion has sent you a lot of medicinal materials, and the young lady of his family has been waiting for you for so many years, don't you plan to marry her?" ”

King Guojun's face stiffened slightly, revealing a reluctant smile: "When fate comes, Miss Meng will marry." ”

"You, stubborn." The emperor said casually, didn't care, raised his hand and let him go.

King Guojun breathed a sigh of relief, and bowed to the Queen Mother before leaving, and when he left, he suddenly heard the Queen Mother say "Concubine Xi's fetus", and couldn't help but pause, but unfortunately he couldn't hear it clearly.

Walking out of Shoukang Palace, he glanced at the direction of Yongshou Palace from afar, and instructed Ah Jin: "Let the mansion prepare more medicinal materials and send them to Wen Shichu." The corners of his lips twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, "He knows everything." ”

"Yes." Ah Jin nodded in response.

However, as soon as he walked on the front foot, Zhen Huan took a sedan chair to Shoukang Palace, and she held her stomach to ask the Queen Mother for peace: "The Queen Mother is blessed with Jin'an." ”

"Get up." The Queen Mother smiled, her eyes were full of love, but there was a faint suspicion.

The emperor hurriedly beckoned someone to move a stool over, and personally took Zhen Huan's hand to help her sit down.

Zhen Huan said with a smile: "The Queen Mother's complexion looks better." ”

"Drinking so many bitter medicines every day, my face is red when I drink it, no matter how bad my body is, and I look good, it's all coaxing." The Queen Mother said this, looking at Zhen Huan's expression, she alluded to the fact that things can't just look at the surface, but also see the truth inside, reminding Zhen Huan that she already knows these rumors in the palace, if it is not true, you should explain it as soon as possible.

Zhen Huan smiled and said nothing, and the Queen Mother continued: "Emperor, you see that Concubine Xi understands the rules, how many times has the mourning family told her, and if she is pregnant, she can be exempted, but she doesn't listen." Then the conversation changed and he said, "Concubine Xi's belly looks bigger than usual, five months faster." ”

Zhen Huan was waiting for this sentence, she lowered her head slightly, stroked her stomach and said, "The imperial doctor said that there are twins in the womb, so the belly is extraordinarily big." ”

The queen mother, who had originally prepared a basket of words to ask Zhen Huan about the crime, was suddenly speechless with joy, and the emperor was even more impatient to verify: "Huanhuan, what you said is true?" ”

"What Imperial Physician Wen said, the concubine didn't dare to say anything." Zhen Huan smiled and pushed Wen Shichu out, now he has the highest reputation in the Tai Hospital, and his superb medical skills are even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, hearing that it was him who diagnosed, the Queen Mother and the Emperor dispelled their doubts.

The rumors were all dispelled at this moment.

The emperor stroked his palms to suppress his joy: "Such a big happy event, I should announce it to the world." ”

"It's a great fortune for the concubines to be able to serve the emperor again, how dare they tell the world the luck of the son in the womb, such an honor, the concubines don't dare to bear it." Zhen Huan naturally wanted to persuade her, she didn't want to bear another infamy, besides, if she broke this situation early, how could she play the burden of forbearance and humiliation in the future, so she tried her best to stop the emperor, "The concubine has just returned to the palace, and she doesn't want to cause more trouble because of her own affairs, and she also wants to raise the fetus quietly and avoid the disturbance of congratulations." Therefore, the fact that the concubine is pregnant with twins is not known to a fourth person before the melon is ripe. ”

These words touched the heart of the Queen Mother, and the more she looked at Zhen Huan, the more satisfied she became: "Concubine Xi is very sensible. She nodded, and also helped persuade the emperor, "The six palaces are all known, and it is not suitable for Concubine Xi's birth, and they will all know when they give birth in the next day, so there is no need to rush for a while." ”

"Huang Eniang, you and Concubine Xi both said so, and the son naturally has no objections." The emperor felt a little regretful, "It's just that no one celebrates such a happy thing, it's a pity." ”

"If it is really as the imperial doctor said, is the emperor still afraid that there will be no day to celebrate?" Zhen Huan smiled and dispelled the emperor's last thought.

The emperor smiled and reached out to touch Zhen Huan's belly.

The Queen Mother took the opportunity to mention Shen Meizhuang: "Concubine Xi has twins, and it is even more inconvenient to serve the emperor." Among the concubines who are good friends with Concubine Xi, there are many virtuous and gentle people, why doesn't the emperor let Concubine Xi have a good rest, and they will serve her. According to Eniang, Concubine Hui is dignified and pure filial piety, which is very good. ”

"The son obeys the teachings of the emperor." The emperor agreed.

"Also, although the queen's illness is not serious, she has not been cured, so it is better to ask Qin Tianjian to see what is going on." The Queen Mother replied again, "Let the Baohua Hall chant and pray again." ”

Zhen Huan sat on the side and listened quietly, and her heart changed her mind, and she immediately had a plan.

"Qin Tianjian's deputy envoy Ji Weisheng is diligent and diligent, and I think he is a usable talent." Shen Meizhuang said to Zhen Huan, "The person who is making the queen early in the morning used the danger of celestial phenomena to trap Rong'er for half a year two years ago, but fortunately, she was prepared so that she would not suffer." In his position, without words, it is time for him to rest. ”

Zhen Huan nodded, flicked the armor on her hand, looked at the glass lamp sent by Concubine Jin on the day she just returned to the palace, and sighed softly: "It's a pity, she just got favored." ”
