When the surroundings returned to calm, Wei Ning'er sighed softly. 【 】

"My lord, don't you want to visit the empress?" Bing Ruo knelt beside Wei Ning'er, asking a little puzzled.

"No need, the empress is not in the way!" Wei Ning'er laughed.

"Then how long are you going to kneel like this, little master?" Bing Ruo asked with some distress.

"Two hours, this is the Queen Mother's order!" Wei Ning'er laughed.

Although Bingruo didn't know why she did this, but since the master said so, she would naturally accompany her as a slave.

The news of the queen's pregnancy spread all over the palace in an instant, even the pure noble concubine who never walked around in the name of raising a baby heard about it.

The empress fainted this time, which really worried the emperor. Fortunately, the imperial doctor said that the child in the empress's womb had been three months old and did not hurt the fetal gas, which made everyone heave a sigh of relief.

"Since you are pregnant, queen, why didn't you tell Aijia, Aijia almost made a big mistake!" The queen mother was relieved when she heard that the imperial doctor said that the queen was fine. .

"Emperor mother!" The emperor looked at the queen mother, and wanted to say something, but held back. No matter what, the emperor would not be disrespectful to the queen mother.

"Why? Ai's family can't even ask?" The queen mother's face suddenly turned ugly.

The emperor took a deep breath and said, "The empress is weak now, so let's talk about it sometime later!"

"Well, the emperor, you can accompany the queen, Ai's family has returned to the palace!" Although the queen mother was a little dissatisfied that the queen was hiding it from her, she was also very happy that the queen was pregnant, so she turned and left without thinking about it.

Concubine Xian made up her mind and followed.

"Empress Dowager, Empress Dowager Empress is pregnant but did not tell you, and she is willing to be punished. This is to let the emperor blame you!" Concubine Xian whispered in the empress dowager's ear.

The queen mother shook her head and said: "Aijia knows the queen's character, she will not use her children to make trouble, let alone her children." The queen mother said this, looked at Concubine Xian and said: "Minruo, Aijia Those who can help you have already helped, but today it almost caused a catastrophe. The Ai family is still in a state of turmoil until now. From now on, the Ai family does not want to get involved in the harem matter. You should take care of yourself !"

When Concubine Xian heard the words, her heart sank, but she had no choice but to nod her head lightly.

How could the queen mother not know the queen's intentions, the queen was telling her not to favor concubine Xian too much, otherwise she would definitely not sit idly by as usual.

Looking back over the years, the Empress Dowager also knew that she preferred Concubine Xian more than the other concubines in the palace. Take care of.

Back at Songhezhai, the queen mother found that Wei Ning'er was still kneeling, so she couldn't help but take another look at her.

"Concubine Ling, get up!" The queen mother said calmly.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager!" Wei Ning'er kowtowed and got up.

"Speaking of which, although you were rude today, it was because of your rudeness that the Ai family did not cause a catastrophe. The Ai family saw that you are a smart kid, so come and help the Ai family to copy Buddhist scriptures in the future! "The Queen Mother laughed.

"Copying Buddhist scriptures!" Wei Ning'er looked at her with a little astonishment. What does copying Buddhist scriptures have to do with being smart?What's more, isn't it what Concubine Xian always does to transcribe and veto the empress dowager?

"Well, to copy Buddhist scriptures, you must be pure-hearted and ascetic, take a bath and fast. From now on, you can no longer serve the emperor!" The queen mother said pointedly.

"Yes!" Wei Ning'er dared not say anything.

"Don't worry, you won't be allowed to copy Buddhist scriptures when you leave the Xinggong Aijia. Otherwise, even if you want to, the emperor won't!" The queen mother laughed.

Wei Ning'er nodded slightly, she didn't know the Queen Mother's intentions.

Now that Concubine Chun is pregnant and Empress Empress is pregnant, this also means that Concubine Chun and Empress Empress cannot sleep together for a long time. If she is controlled again, the rest will be Concubine Xian, Concubine Jia, Concubine Shu, Concubine Yi, after all, the Empress Dowager is still helping Concubine Xian, Wei Ning'er doesn't understand why the Empress Dowager likes Concubine Xian so much.

"Do you think that the Ai family didn't let you serve the emperor because of the concubine Xian?" The queen mother seemed to see through Wei Ning'er's thoughts, and a wry smile appeared on her face.

"Ah... no!" Wei Ning'er was shocked and immediately shook her head.

"Hmph... there are not many people who can fool the Ai family." Once the queen mother becomes serious, nothing in the palace can be hidden from her eyes, it's just that she doesn't care about it after decades of leisure Well, there have always been battles between concubines in the harem, and she never thought of ending these battles by herself, even if she wanted to, it would be impossible.

"Yes!" Wei Ning'er nodded slightly, and didn't say much.

"Aijia asks you, where did the wound on the emperor's right face come from?" The queen mother asked after Wei Ning'er entered the main hall with the queen mother.

Wei Ning'er was startled again, and almost bumped into the Queen Mother, but fortunately, Bing Ruo who was beside her grabbed her.

"Looking at your reckless appearance, you must be the one who injured the emperor!" The Empress Dowager immediately darkened her face.

Wei Ning'er didn't answer, and she didn't answer, she stood there in fear.

Seeing her like this, the queen mother smiled: "Okay, since the emperor didn't say anything, the Ai family should pretend that they didn't see it, but...you have to be careful in the future, otherwise the Ai family won't be as lenient as this time." you!"

"Yes!" Wei Ning'er responded with a slight blessing.

At this moment, she is full of doubts, Queen Mother...why do you want to do this?What is her idea?Wei Ning'er couldn't figure it out, but there was nothing she could do.

In the evening, Cheng Bi came to her bedroom and said that the empress had invited her to have an audience with her. Wei Ning'er did not dare to neglect her and went immediately.

After entering the bedroom, Wei Ning'er saw the queen lying on the bed, she was shocked, forgot to salute for a while and walked quickly to the bed.

"Ma'am, what is this?"

"Don't worry, I'm not in the way!" The Queen took her hand and smiled, then winked at Chu Xia, Chu Xia immediately retreated with the servants in the room.

"Ning'er, it's thanks to you this time. If I kneel for a while longer, I might really hurt the child in my belly!" The queen's brows showed a look of fear.

"Your Majesty is indeed taking too much risk this time!" Wei Ning'er said solemnly.

But the queen shook her head and said: "At least everything is within my expectations. If you hadn't helped me up at that time, I would not have gambled with the child even if the success fell short. But... fortunately, the emperor came quickly. !"

"Your Majesty, don't you make the Empress Dowager feel dissatisfied with you by doing this?" Wei Ning'er said with some worry, it seems that the queen's actions are not worth the loss.

"The empress dowager is dissatisfied with this palace, and it is not a matter of a day or two. Concubine Xian, I want to tell the Empress Dowager that I will always be in the Emperor's heart. Even if she is the emperor's mother-in-law, she should not try to destroy the relationship between me and the emperor over and over again. This time, maybe she can see it more clearly!" The Queen laughed.

Wei Ning'er was slightly moved when she heard the words. Could it be that...over the past few years, the empress dowager and the empress...had dissatisfaction with each other.

The queen held Wei Ning'er's hand and said with a smile: "The empress dowager doesn't necessarily like Concubine Xian very much, she just wanted to find someone to suppress this palace, but she didn't know that Concubine Xian disappointed her, but even so, she had no other choice choice."

"Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager?" Wei Ning'er was full of doubts.

The queen sighed and said: "The rift of the early years has not been resolved until now. This matter has to be talked about in the fifth year of Yongzheng. In that year, my palace was ordered to enter the palace for a draft. At the time when the fourth elder brother chose Fujin, the empress dowager was just an ordinary concubine—Concubine Xi. She was not favored by the late emperor, but her son, the fourth elder brother, was the emperor's favorite prince. The female middle school picked Bengong at a glance, but even if she had a favorite candidate, she still had to ask the queen what she wanted, to respect the empress constitution, Ulanara was the first consort of the first emperor, and she was from a famous family and was very popular. Due to the late emperor's respect, she has always been the one who decides the affairs of the palace."

"The Ulanara clan, Concubine Xian is also from the Ulanara clan. She is a relative of Empress Xiaoxian?" Wei Ning'er asked in surprise.

The queen shook her head slightly: "It's just a surname, and it's all from the same clan, but it doesn't have much relationship!"

The queen paused, and then said: "Empress Xiao Jing Xian also likes this palace, but... when she heard that the queen mother also liked this palace, she sneered and said, Concubine Xi is not born high, but she wants to choose one for her son." Fujin, who came from a famous family, really made it difficult for Concubine Xi, knowing her own shortcomings, she thought not to let her son suffer, but it was a painstaking effort, so I decided to ask the emperor to marry Fucha to Hongli. "

"Honoring Empress Xian, she..." Wei Ning'er felt panicked when she heard the words.

The queen sighed and said: "Empress Xiao Jing Xian's elder brother Honghui died early, this has always been the greatest pain in her heart, so she doesn't like the children born to other concubines, and later she raised Concubine Qi. The third elder brother who came out was Hongshi, but it happened that the third elder brother was seriously ill at that time, and it seemed that he was about to die, so she naturally felt uncomfortable, so she vented her anger on the empress dowager."

"The Empress Dowager hates you, Empress Dowager because of her filial piety to Empress Xian?" Wei Ning'er was puzzled. It stands to reason that the Empress Dowager was chosen by the Empress Dowager herself for the Emperor, even though Empress Xiao Jing used this to mock the Empress Dowager. , she shouldn't hate the queen either.

The queen shook her head and said: "At the beginning, the queen mother was just a little dissatisfied, but she never made things difficult for the palace, but... Later, people in the palace often used this matter to ridicule the queen mother's birth. The empress dowager is even more dissatisfied with the deep affection with the emperor, so despite the objections of the emperor and this palace, she just let Concubine Xian become a side fortune and marry into the palace!"
