No one expected that Concubine Wen would be lucky enough to be pregnant after working secretly for more than a month. When Xuan Ye heard about it, he just looked gloomy and remained silent. The Empress Dowager sighed and ordered Lan Qi: "Bring the baby with you."
Yinzuo, let’s go play.”
Lan Qi silently agreed, turned around and walked out. When she was about to go out, she heard the Empress Dowager say: "It is normal for the emperor to favor his concubines. Being pregnant is a blessing from God. It's just that Concubine Wen's activities are not allowed. It is said that
If you leave, where will the royal family’s face be?”
She didn't dare to listen anymore, and went out to find Yinzuo, promising to take him to find her fourth brother. However, Yinzuo asked her mother: "Is Huang Ama healed? Does she also have to take very bitter medicine?"
Lan Qi knelt down and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and whispered: "Huang Ama is just tired."
Sixth brother and E Niang slowly walked out of Cining Palace hand in hand. He said sweetly: "E Niang, Yinzuo really wants to go to the study room. Niang, I will study hard and be as good as fourth brother."
Her son's childish voice spoke full of ambition, which made Lan Qi feel much more peaceful. In the past time, she couldn't imagine how she hated Concubine Wen. What kind of love was she? Did she know that it would harm Concubine Wen?
Xuan Ye's body was destroyed, and even her own life was lost?
If she hadn't been pregnant, the Empress Dowager would never have let her go, but what she said was right. It was very common for the emperor to favor his concubines. Wu Yalanqi was never the only one in Xuan Ye.
He had told Xuan Ye a long time ago that he didn't know how long their relationship would last. Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong once said in front of him what would happen in a few years. Maybe their today is their tomorrow. What will happen in the future, who knows?
?
"Yinzuo, E Niang hugs you." When you are helpless and negative, children are the biggest support in your heart. Lan Qi thought of her little daughter and said to Yin Zuo, "The imperial grandmother is talking to her great grandmother, E Niang
Can I take you to see my little sister?"
But Yin Zuo muttered: "I don't like my little sister."
The mother was very embarrassed and asked with a smile: "Why don't you like your sister?"
"Because the fourth brother likes my sister more, the fourth brother likes my sister now." Yinzuo leaned on E Niang's shoulder and asked coquettishly, "Does E Niang like my sister more too?"
Lan Qi smiled helplessly, her arms getting more and more sore. She smiled and said that her son was getting stronger and stronger. After walking a few steps, she finally put him down. After struggling like this, they didn't go very far for a long time, but they saw Ci behind him.
There were sounds of people coming in and out of Ning Palace. The people who came hurriedly saluted and then ran away without knowing where they were going. The emperor's warm sedan was also prepared, and not long after, Xuan Ye was seen coming out of the door.
Xuan Ye thought Lan Qi had left, but now he saw their mother and son here not too far away. He was stunned for a moment. Both sides seemed a little embarrassed. Lan Qi calmed down and pulled her son to stand aside, hoping to wait for the imperial driver to go first.
.But when Xuan Ye saw her like this, he simply walked over. Yin Zuo was ignorant and happily asked Huang Amma if she would take him to the study. However, Xuan Ye ignored his son and asked Lan Qi directly: "Are you angry?"
Huan Chun, who was accompanying him, quickly came to take Sixth Brother away. The little guy asked Huanchun what he was doing. Huanchun smiled and coaxed him: "Amma and E Niang are whispering. We can't listen. Huanchun takes Sixth Brother to wait.
Is it okay for Fourth Brother to go to school?"
Here, Concubine De followed the emperor to Qianqing Palace. The people in Xianfu Palace who had just hurried past Concubine De brought a message from the Queen Mother, saying that Concubine Wen was pregnant with the emperor's heir. She was extremely precious and should not go out these days.
Move around more to have a baby at home, and it is said that Qin Tian’s monitoring of the concubine’s pregnancy date is a bit unreasonable. The ladies in other palaces don’t know whether the birthdays and horoscopes will conflict with each other, so there is no need to move around in the past few months.
The noble man Jue Chan takes good care of you.
Concubine Wen and Concubine Juechan could only listen. After the eunuch who came had finished saying these words, he said in a more serious tone: "The Queen Mother has another decree, and what she said just now must not be spread outside the Xianfu Palace.
If one or two rumors are heard, the empress will lose her face, and all the servants in Xianfu Palace will not be able to survive."
The eunuch spoke solemnly and without any expression, but everyone present was stunned. He gave a clear explanation and walked away, and by the way, he told the door of Xianfu Palace to be closed tightly so that no one could move around. He was the only one who went back, so follow him.
The two powerful eunuchs have been staying here ever since.
The imperial concubine never explained to Jue Chan what was going on. After she fainted just now, the Queen Mother was the only one talking to her in the room. Jue Chan guessed that the things found were medicines, but the Queen Mother said that the emperor's room was overly stuffed.
She wasn't around when I was talking about it, so I couldn't guess what it was used for.
At this moment, Dongyun went to warn the palace maids and eunuchs. They only knew that the Queen Mother brought people to search, and they couldn't figure out what was found. But now, although the master was lucky enough to be pregnant again, why did Xianfu Palace suddenly become like this?
With the appearance of a cold palace, the people who lived in the palace would look at her and feel that if the master had not had this child, he might not be in the right situation now.
Master Juechan also noticed this.
"I'm really sorry that I made you sit in the cold palace with me." Concubine Wen smiled sadly and put one hand on her lower abdomen. There was an indescribable emotion on her face, "I am hungry every day and my waist is tightened.
It’s time to relax, why is my life so bad?”
Jue Chan was startled. She had never heard that a woman in the palace did not want to conceive an heir to the emperor. But considering that Concubine Wen cared so much about the emperor coming to see him, and now she would not be able to get close to him for another year and a half, it was no wonder that she did not want to.
.
"I thought those medicines would only help keep the bed warm. How did I know it would hurt my body?" Concubine Wen gradually curled up and muttered with a dazed look in her eyes, "I also took them. How can I be fine? Your Majesty, he
Why are you dizzy and unable to stand? It's not poison. Besides, he's not here with me every day. He used to stay in the Yonghe Palace every day and nothing happened."
It was not long before the first lunar month, and Concubine Wen had not slept with her yet. Although she had the most days in the twelfth lunar month, it was not the night and night as the Empress Dowager said. She was not surprised that the Empress Dowager directly pointed the finger at her.
, after all, whoever spends more time with her will definitely have a problem, but the emperor doesn’t come every day and eat every day, so why should those who are usually elsewhere be counted on her head?
Jue Chan listened to her mumbling a few words from time to time and already guessed something. Concubine Wen also realized her presence and suddenly asked: "You must be laughing at me and hating me, now I've ruined your future too."
.”
Jue Chan said hurriedly: "I have nothing to do with you. There is no other place to go except Xianfu Palace. I can just take care of you here."
However, Concubine Wen lost her temper for no reason, blaming her for not knowing how to please the emperor. If she could make the emperor like her and come to Xianfu Palace often for this purpose, Concubine Wen would not have to go to great lengths to invite favors and keep his heart. Until now
Not only can’t I keep my heart, I can’t keep my body either.
Mrs. Juechan didn't want to ask any more questions, but Concubine Wen told her everything. When she heard that she had used an aphrodisiac on the emperor, she was stunned. Concubine Hui did the same thing to the emperor back then.
The emperor was confused and obsessed with her, a strange palace maid, and ruined her life.
The imperial concubine always emphasized that the emperor did not come every day, and she did not give the emperor medicine every day. However, Jue Chan had some insight and told her that this thing was said to be an aphrodisiac, but in fact it was an aphrodisiac, and it could help the ejaculation in bed.
Afterwards, the effect of the medicine will stay in the body. The emperor's body is always excited during the days of taking the medicine, not to mention that he will take it again every few days. For the emperor in his prime, it is easy for him to feel that he is normal.
In this situation, when you need to notice that something is wrong, it is almost the time when the outsiders are strong and the middle is doing it.
"The emperor is in his prime, and the concubine's use of these medicines is undoubtedly a burning fire. It's better to find it early now. If it really goes on for a long time, I'm afraid it will damage the foundation of the dragon's body." Jue Chan's heart trembled.
Trembling, he repeatedly said to the imperial concubine, "How could you even think of doing this? Madam, if you hadn't been pregnant, I'm afraid the Empress Dowager would..."
Concubine Wen stared at her with ferocious fear on her face, her eyes were dull and her lips moved slightly, "What will happen? Kill me?"
Jue Chan nodded without saying anything.
At this moment, Dongyun came in and said with a worried look on his face that the two powerful eunuchs from Cining Palace had withdrawn for some reason and it seemed that they would never come back. Perhaps the Empress Dowager was also afraid of doing something too ugly and embarrassing the people in the palace.
People are suspicious.
Concubine Wen asked casually: "How is the emperor doing now? Have you seen the imperial doctor?"
After all, Xianfu Palace has a huge family backing outside the palace. The Niu Hulu family has a lot of spies in the Forbidden City. They will not be truly isolated from the world in the palace. There are always ways to know what is going on outside. Dongyun
It was said that Concubine De followed the emperor to Qianqing Palace, and the Empress Dowager asked the emperor to rest because he had a cold, and ordered Concubine De to take care of him. These words obviously stimulated Concubine Wen.
Dongyun knew clearly that it would make her master angry, but she was so resentful that she seemed to want to tell her on purpose. After all, Dongyun tried to persuade her again and again, but her master just insisted on going his own way and ended up in the current situation.
"Look, you see, after knocking me down, Wu Yashi immediately got up to me." Instead of reflecting on her own mistakes, Concubine Wen vented her resentment on Lan Qi, and even said bitterly, "The Emperor's
Why am I in such poor health? She must have been instigated by her jealousy that I was favored by the emperor."
Jue Chan is the smartest person. If she doesn't say anything to comfort or persuade, she also understands that Concubine Wen is not stupid. In a few days, she will be able to figure out what is wrong. Maybe she knew it was wrong from the beginning.
But in order to get everything that I want, I will not hesitate to walk on this road with my eyes closed, even if it is a point of no return.
In the Qianqing Palace, the imperial concubine learned that the emperor was ill and rushed over, but was stopped outside. Lan Qi came out to greet him and was scolded as soon as they met. The imperial concubine was worried about Xuan Ye's health and blamed Lan Qi for even doing this.
He had to take care of everything and said to her unceremoniously: "Why don't you in turn persuade the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager to persuade the Emperor? Aren't you afraid of being hated like this? The Emperor is not yours alone. You usually have many
It’s okay to be partial to you, but why do you want to take advantage of me even when you’re sick?”
Lan Qi listened silently. The Imperial Concubine's temper was like this. She became anxious for a while and then got better. Now compared to Concubine Wen's bad behavior, Lan Qi found it pleasing to everyone. Anyway, she was better than Concubine Wen.
The imperial concubine was straight forward, so she didn't have to spend any effort to deal with her. After being scolded and complained by her, it was over quickly.
When Lan Qi returned to Xuan Ye, she was preparing the medicine for the emperor to take. After the eunuch who tested the medicine checked it over and over again, Lan Qi brought it to the emperor. Xuan Ye looked at her indifferent and calm expression and thought of what he had just heard.
When the imperial concubine scolded someone, she reached out and handed over the medicine bowl. He didn't take the bowl, but held her wrist and said softly: "It's my fault, please don't be angry, okay?"
The grown man in front of him acted like a child who had done something wrong, looking innocent and pitiful, but Lan Qi couldn't help feeling sorry for him, and the more she looked at him, the more angry she became.
