Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 450 is about to give birth (1)
"No matter how good they dance, how can they compare to a stunning beauty like Ji Jieyu? Not to mention, she still has a deep affection for you." Hearing what he said, the corners of Su Wan's lips could not help but curl up slightly. If he really had feelings for Ji Jieyu, he would definitely not compare her with the dancer of the Jiaofang Division, but seeing Emperor Xiande's former favorite concubine, she still couldn't help but make fun of him.

"But I only have you in my heart, doesn't Wan'er know?" Emperor Xian De looked at Su Wan with burning eyes, and said softly.

Su Wan suppressed a smile and gave him a sideways glance.

Due to the cover of the music, no one heard what the two were talking about. However, they got together intimately, whispering and expressing affection. It was obvious that they were talking about love, which was enough to blind everyone. Eyeballs gone.

All the concubines couldn't help but look at them a few more times.

And Ji Jieyu, who was dancing on the stage, accidentally caught sight of this scene, and was so angry that her dance steps were messed up, and she almost fell down, almost unable to dance.

The emperor doesn't look at her, why is she dancing?

But she still didn't give up, she continued to dance, hoping that the emperor would finish talking with the imperial concubine quickly, and then turn her gaze over. Unfortunately, Emperor Xiande was peeling pomegranate seeds for Su Wan, so he had no time to pay attention to her.

Well, I heard from the imperial doctor that it is better for pregnant women to eat more pomegranates, and the implication is also good, so Wan'er has to eat more.Liang Hong thought so, and the speed of peeling the pomegranate became faster and faster.

Until Ji Jieyu finished dancing, Emperor Xian De didn't look over there, he had no choice but to be busy feeding Su Wan.

Su Wan doesn't need to do anything, just wait for the food while watching the dance.

After Ji Jieyu finally finished dancing, Su Wan applauded appreciatively, seeing that Ji Jie seemed to be stepping down, she quickly said: "Sister Ji's dancing is really good, it really opened my eyes, I can't stop thinking about it. "

Ji Jieyu forced a smile, bent her knees and said, "The imperial concubine has won the prize."

Her dance is for His Majesty to watch, who cares if she likes it or not?Hmph, I really think of her as a dancer.

Thinking of this, he looked at Emperor Xian De unwillingly, and found that he even peeled pomegranates for Su Wan and didn't want to watch her dance, so he was a little discouraged and wronged.

Just about to step down, she heard Su Wan say: "I didn't win the award, Ji Jieyu's dance is indeed very good, I didn't watch enough just now, you can dance again!"

"I..." Ji Jieyu wanted to refuse, she was already tired after dancing once, and why should she entertain others like a dancer?

"What? Is Ji Jieyu unwilling?" Su Wan asked with a smile.

Ji Jieyu bit her lip, of course she didn't want to, she was already very tired, but facing the imperial concubine, she could only hold back her breath silently and continued to jump up.

After dancing like this three times in a row, Su Wan made her stop.

The women in the palace basically don’t exercise much. Even when they go to other places, they often sit in soft sedan chairs. They don’t have much physical strength. After dancing three times, their faces are already pale and crumbling, but they still have to step down to thank you before they can sit down again. .

After Ji Jieyu saluted, Empress Ning looked at her, sighed and said, "It's so pitiful, sister Ji, please sit down and have a rest."

"Thank you, empress!" Ji Jieyu said gratefully.

Although Empress Ning didn't say anything to blame, she was actually blaming Su Wan.

Su Wan didn't care, anyway, she wouldn't lose a piece of meat, so she just pretended not to notice.

Concubine Hu Gui, on the other hand, has not changed much after being imprisoned for such a long time.

Unable to understand Su Wan's behavior, she said directly: "The imperial concubine wants to watch singing and dancing, so she can just ask the dancer from the Jiaofang Division. Why bother with sister Ji?"

So what if she seduces the emperor?Who in this palace didn't come here like this?This imperial concubine is too domineering and too narrow-minded.

Su Wan glanced at Concubine Hu Gui, and said, "Where did Concubine Hu come from? You should have seen it just now. This is Ji Jieyu's initiative to ask for the dance. I just asked her to dance twice more. How did it become a torment for her?"

"Didn't the imperial concubine see that Ji Jieyu was about to collapse?" Hu Guifei said angrily.

"I didn't know that her physical strength was so poor, she only danced the three dances twice, and she became like this." Su Wan said.

It was true that Ji Jieyu was tired, but it was impossible to be so tired.

"This is what I mean." Concubine Hu Gui was about to argue with Su Wan, when Emperor Xian De said suddenly, Emperor Xian De looked at Concubine Hu Gui coldly, "Could it be that I am also at fault?"

Concubine Hu Gui was dissatisfied, but she didn't dare to refute, her face turned red, she could only say: "I dare not!"

"Not the best! It's okay, it's getting late, let's all go away!" Emperor Xian De left with Su Wan after saying this.

"Respectfully send off Your Majesty!" Everyone stood up and saluted, watching His Majesty and the imperial concubine get on the sedan chair, the group of people gradually moved away, and everyone turned their eyes away.

Concubine Zhou De snorted coldly and said to Empress Ning: "The concubine is really worthless for my sister. My sister is the empress of the palace, but Your Majesty only cares about her. Those who don't know think she is the palace!"

Concubine Zhou De copied the scriptures for a month, and the resentment in her heart almost solidified. Once Emperor Xian De left, she couldn't help but complain.

Empress Ning didn't seem to care, she smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty dotes on her, what can I do?"

The momentary favor is nothing, the one who laughs last is the winner. The matter of enshrining the second prince as the crown prince has already begun, and she doesn't care about other things.

Concubine Shu also couldn't help but said: "Could it be that the empress just tolerated her like this? If this continues, how can you save face? Who will take this empress of yours seriously in the future?"

These words can be regarded as hitting Queen Ning's weakness. She knows what Concubine Shu said. Of course, she is also afraid of losing her status and face, but she can only try her best to ignore it now, because she has more important things to do. To do it, she can tell the importance.

Empress Ning took a deep breath and said, "Okay, don't mention this matter again. It's getting late, I'm going back to the palace first, you should go back to rest early too!"

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the voice of the crown prince began to appear in the court.

There are many people who support the establishment of the second prince. It is not that these ministers were bribed by the queen, but because the systems of the past dynasties are "there is a son who establishes a son, and there is no son who establishes an elder." Yes, worthy of being a prince.

After the crown prince is established, Zhan Shifu, which is the official institution of the prince, should also be re-established, and try his best to assist and teach the prince to make him a qualified successor.

Only when the next successor is determined, will the ministers feel at ease.
