The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 363 Lanxi
In May, the beginning of summer came quietly, and Wannai's deceased sister's injury eased a lot.

Since the conferment of Empress An Xiaozhao, the emperor has turned over the sign of Wanyi almost every day, and for a while, others are envious of his favor.

On this day, Hegong invited Concubine An to Chengqian Palace. As soon as Wannai entered the door, she heard laughter and joy in the hall, so she saluted and took her seat and said: "I heard all the sisters laughing and talking about Yingying when I was far away, but what's the matter?" fun?"

Rou Jia bowed to me, then pointed at Lin Lan's stomach and laughed: "Just now when the concubines were talking, Lan Changzai talked about her daily food, just the noon meal, she could eat it alive Down with a whole chicken."

She giggled and was about to be speechless with joy, and Wen Yin beside Linlan continued, "It's not enough, and I can't finish eating at night. A few days ago, my concubine Didn't my mother's house bring in some dried sour plums and distribute them to the sisters in the various palaces, just now I asked, but Lan Changzai had finished it."

Lin Lan was ashamed, and said with a blushing smile: "What can I do for my concubine? If you want to blame it, blame the food in Concubine Wan's palace for being too delicious. If you don't eat for a day, you will panic."

"You will complain." Wanyu smiled helplessly, and sighed: "How can I control her tongue, when she entered the Changchun Palace from the front, she was not greedy. Taotie, she doesn't care about people watching her and making fun of her."

Seeing what Wanyu said, Linlan blushed and said 'Hi': "Sister always likes to laugh at me." She frowned as she spoke, which made Rongyue on the high seat laugh again and again, busying the palace people I brought pea yellow and pear flower cakes for the big guys to bicker.

Lin Lan first sneaked two yuan into it while others were not paying attention, and then saw that it was delicious, so she just stuffed it into her mouth one by one.

Not long after, she filled half of the full plate of dim sum. Luo Fu glanced at her, and said happily, "Oh, Lan Chang is here, you can take it easy, our emperor always likes thinner women. Don't eat yourself into a Concubine Yang Gui, but without her fate, makes people disgusted."

Wannai raised her brows, gently stroked the pear blossom wood patterns on the case, and said calmly: "I see that Mrs. Luo is thin, why don't you see the emperor call you to sleep? I thought, the emperor should have three months Didn't you turn over your sign?"

Luo Fu corrected his complexion, and said calmly: "The emperor is so concerned with running to Concubine Wan's palace every day, how can he care about others? In fact, everyone understands this truth, just like Concubine Wan scolded concubines in the past. The concubine got such great favor because of the emperor's memory of Empress Renxiao. The concubine especially remembers that the empress once said that if it were you, she would never dare to have such a favor. Why? Now you are so flocking to it Yes, it is really more strict with others than self-discipline."

Because of Yide's sudden collapse, Wanyu had been depressed for several months and had nowhere to vent her anger. Today, she encountered such a mindless idiot as Luo Fu who made offensive words, so she had to teach her a lesson. memory.

He just got up and wanted to walk towards Luo Fu, but he heard a burst of vomiting.

Looking back, she saw that it was Lin Lan covering her mouth and nose with a silk, gagging again and again.

Luo Fu was suddenly overjoyed when she saw it, and said with a smile: "I have never seen a concubine who is so full that she vomits. Lan Changzai really opened our eyes."

Everyone followed her words and smiled, but at that time Yuwen and Xiuyan looked at each other with doubts.

Both of them have given birth before, so they can naturally distinguish the difference between morning sickness and ordinary vomiting.

Seeing that Lin Lan's abdomen was slightly swollen, she liked sour food and was greedy, so she asked, "Lan Chang is here, your monthly letter for this month, is it here?"

After the words fell, everyone heard the meaning behind the words, so Qiqi turned his attention to Linlan.

Lin Lan replied a little shyly: "Tiankui ② is not allowed to treat the illnesses caused by working in Xinzheku in the past. Sometimes it is not uncommon for them not to come for three or two months."

Xiuyan said again: "Have you seen the imperial physician?"

Lin Lan shook her head, Xiuyan was stunned for a moment, and after a while she came back to her senses and said to Rong Yue: "Young Concubine, I'm afraid there will be a happy event in this palace."

Upon hearing this, Wan Lai's heart felt sour, but it was replaced by joy immediately.

All the concubines had already got up and gathered around her to ask for warmth, but Luo Fu snorted and murmured: "Doesn't she know if she has children? How can we use our idleness? I'm afraid it's nothing but joy." stop"

The house was full and no one paid any attention to her, Wan Yu held Lin Lan's hand and asked Fei Yan who was waiting behind her: "When was the last time your little master sent a monthly letter?"

Feiyan thought for a moment and then replied: "It will be three months at least."

Looking back at Rong Yue, Rong Yue was also full of surprise, and hurriedly called Aqiong to the imperial hospital to ask the imperial doctor to come and see.

The matter of the emperor's heir is cautious, so Aqiong simply invites the court judge Fu Zhuo and Liu Taiyi, the daughter of the obstetrics and gynecology department, to check Linlan's pulse.

Not long after, the imperial physician beamed with joy and reported: "Congratulations to Lan Chang, you are already three months pregnant! And the fetal image is stable, which is an excellent thing!" Fu Zhuo bowed his hands to congratulate her, and then hurriedly packed the medicine Box then bid farewell to Rong Yue: "I'm going to inform the emperor about this."

For a while, the concubines Yingying and Yanyu were chattering endlessly, but Rong Yue reprimanded them, and they would not stop until everyone returned to their seats.Then another palace maid took a comfortable cushion and put it on Lin Lan, and said with a smile: "You too, a person with a body in March, still doesn't know it."

Compared with the joyful expressions of others, Lin Lan was not half happy.

Her face was as calm as water, she hesitated in response to Rong Yue, then lowered her brows and eyes and said nothing again.

Seeing her appearance, Yipin Roujia couldn't help joking: "Yo, this unexpected blessing has come to you, why do you still look wronged?"

Luo Fu laughed and said, "I'm afraid I'm overjoyed. It's really a blessing that Lan Chang is here, but it's only a few times." She cast her eyes on Wan Yu, and said: "The concubine Wan is the most favored, Even the Hegong sisters together can't compare to you, why is there still no movement in this stomach?"

That's right, Lin Lan became pregnant after only a few times.

And since I had a miscarriage, no matter how many favors I have, I still don't see the mercy of the heavens.I have to say a word of blessing.

Wan Lai smiled indifferently, only caring about the joy of acquaintance with Lin Lan while holding her hand, and ignored Luo Fu.

Luo Fu saw that she was dumb and her aura became stronger, but when Fang was about to speak, she heard Rong Yue on the high seat say coldly: "Concubine Wan has been pregnant after all, but it's Yibi and Luo Guiren, you two She has served in the palace for many years, and there is no sign of having a child at all. How can she have the leisure to talk about others here? No matter how poor Concubine Wan is, she has endless favors, how about you? With such thoughts, I don’t pay much attention to how to please her. On the emperor's heart, on the contrary, he chattered endlessly every day without any tension. If he continues to do so, be careful and be merciless."

Wan Lai looked at Rong Yue, the two looked at each other, smiled at each other, and nodded.

Although the eldest sister has gone, Rong Yue will always be with her for a long time.

How much, it can be regarded as some consolation.

　Remarks ①: Taotie (taotie) is a mysterious monster in ancient Chinese myths and legends.The ancient book "Shan Hai Jing" introduced its characteristics as follows: its shape is like a sheep's body and a human face, with eyes in the armpits, tiger teeth and human claws, and a big head and a big mouth.The character is greedy, and it is a metaphor for a person who eats food. It is often seen in bronze statues.He is the son of the Jinyun family, not the ninth son of the Dragon (the fifth son of the Dragon in the legend).The Taotie pattern first appeared on the Liangzhu culture jades in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River 5000 years ago.

　　Remark ②: The ancients called menstruation as Tiangui and Yuexin. "Heaven" means that it comes from the innate, and "Gui" means that its essence belongs to the Kuishui in the heavenly stems, which means the yin in the yang.Zhang Jingyue said: "The man who is the mandarin is the water of the sky, and the dry name is also.... Therefore, the man who is the mana is the ear of the yin energy of the sky. The qi turns into water, because it is called the mandarin. ... It is called the primordial yin in the human body. It is also called Yuan Qi" ("Lei Jing Zang Xiang Lei").
