Long Harem Road

Chapter 27

The autumn rain was drizzling, at midnight, an autumn rain ruthlessly washed the entire palace, the sound of "rustling" drizzle fell silently with a touch of sadness, desolate and desolate.

"One autumn rain and one cold", gusts of autumn wind blew, and gusts of coolness rushed to the face. Baozhu and Liu Quan, holding umbrellas, walked in the autumn rain with joy.

Walking through the golden bamboo forest, stepping through the small puddles everywhere, the continuous rain sprinkled on the face and body, cold, desolate, and resentful, "it is easy to wither, but there are more, ruthless wind and rain."

After the "Christmas Festival", Baozhu has always had a vague premonition in her heart that the balance in the palace seems to be broken, and there will be another bloody storm at that time.

"Master, the one in front is Zhang Zhaorong." At the gate of Kunning Palace, Huanxi saw Baozhu's expression wandering, reminded in a low voice.

Standing at the entrance of Kunning Palace, Zhang Zhaorong looked at Tingting's orb, and had to admit that her eyes were picturesque, coming from the hazy, lingering drizzle, people who watched were mesmerized .

"Sister Zhang." Baozhu smiled sweetly, walked to the steps and bowed gracefully.

"Sister Bao is really like the fairy in the rain. My sister is drunk after seeing it. No wonder she is cherished by the Holy One!"

With a smile on his face, Zhang Zhaorong stretched out his hand to grab the orb, and said coquettishly, with a normal heart, his words seemed to be envious and relieved, but there was no jealousy, even the orb was a bit puzzled.

"Thank you for your praise, my sister deserves it!" Baozhu sensed Zhang Zhaorong's kindness, and the two looked at each other with a smile, and walked into the hall, believing that the scene in front of the hall had already caught the eyes of the queen.

"Greetings to the empress!"

"Please, two sisters, the two sisters are really destined to come here together?" The queen sat on the head, her tone was flat, as if it was just a common question between friends, isn't it? On the same level, it is indeed destined.

"Go back to your mother, the concubine arrived one step earlier, and saw that sister Bao was fascinated like a fairy, so I wanted to wait for my sister and take a closer look." words, said with a laugh.

"Yes, Sister Bao is really loved by everyone. I believe the emperor will find out soon." Zhu Cairen, who was the original Zhu Zhaoyuan, raised his eyebrows and looked quite disdainful.

Since the lifting of the embargo, the emperor may have stayed with her for two consecutive days in order to compensate her for the grievances she suffered in the eldest prince incident, and rewarded her a lot.

Baozhu pursed her lips and smiled indifferently, biting the word "sister" and said, "Thank you sister Zhu for your good words, the emperor will definitely find out.".

It's just "Christmas", two weeks ago, the emperor hasn't been to Cuiluxuan yet?Baozhu curled her lips, this Zhu Cairen really knows how to scratch the sore spots, if it is an ordinary woman, her lungs must be blown up.

It doesn't matter to Baozhu. In this sensitive period when she was just promoted, if the emperor really dotes on her unscrupulously, she should think about how to continue to live. It seems that the emperor is not so "scumbag".

Only then did Zhu Cairen realize that her status was lower than that of Baozhu, so she could only consider herself a "sister", glared at Baozhu bitterly, and closed her eyes, Concubine Ma, it was all caused by you bitch, you wait.

He Meiren is Princess He, when no one noticed, her gloomy eyes swept across Zhu Cairen.

After learning from the last lesson, she has matured and endured a lot, but she can't stand it. So far, the emperor has not favored her any more. No wonder she is jealous of Zhu Cairen. She has just lifted the ban. Pet.

"Sister Bao is indeed a good one!" The queen smiled lightly and smoothed things over. At this time, Concubine Xian also entered the palace gracefully to pay her respects, and sat quietly at the head of the queen.

"Why hasn't the noble concubine arrived today, does the concubine Xian know?" The queen glanced at the crowd, then turned to Concubine Xian and said.

"Going back to the Empress, the concubine doesn't know, it's rainy and the road is slippery, the imperial concubine's sister's carriage is a little slower." Xianfei replied calmly, her voice was like pearls falling on a jade plate, it was really pleasant.

"Dongmei, ask someone to take a look. The imperial concubine's younger sister is weak. If she's not in good health, I'll go and ask for an imperial physician." The queen turned and said to the grand lady.

At this moment, a maid hurriedly ran in from outside the palace, her head was still dripping with rain, she knelt on the ground, and said anxiously, "I want to report to Empress Empress, something has happened to Empress Imperial Concubine."

"What's going on?", the queen stood up, clasped her fingers tightly, and asked anxiously, but a smile was pulled from the corner of her mouth that no one noticed, and everyone in the hall also stood up anxiously, their eyes full of anxiety.

"I don't know, it's not far from Kunning Palace. I saw the sedan chair of the imperial concubine and empress from a distance, so I hurried over to report."

"Sisters, let's go and have a look quickly?" The queen hurriedly walked out of the hall, followed by the concubines, maids of honor and eunuchs in a "huh-huh-lah" manner.

Small puddles of water can be seen everywhere in the imperial palace in the drizzle, the imperial concubine's sedan chair fell on the bluestone road, and Wei Guifei was unconscious in the arms of the close-fitting palace maid, and was being hugged by someone, heading towards the nearest side hall of Kunning Palace. go.

And behind Concubine Wei, there was a comatose concubine who was being held by a court lady, her face was pale, and the scarlet blood stains on her lower body mixed with the rain, ticking, glaring and weird.

"Hurry up and take him to the side hall. Where's the imperial doctor? Hurry up and invite him!" Seeing this scene, the queen's eyes widened, and she said sharply, turning her head to glance at everyone coldly.

The concubine who followed behind her also exclaimed and shut her mouth, but the gloating in her eyes couldn't be concealed. In front of the queen's bedroom, the concubine had an accident with another concubine, and the queen might be involved as well. up.

Concubine Wei Gui and Ma Cairen were carried into the side hall of Kunning Palace, and the two imperial doctors finally arrived.

"You don't need to be too polite, go and check the pulse of the two younger sisters first!" The queen said anxiously.

"Yes!" The two imperial doctors took the boxes in their hands and entered a room one by one. After a while, a woman's suppressed cry came from Ma Cairen's room.

After a cup of tea, the imperial doctor came out and wiped the sweat from his forehead with lingering fear, this imperial doctor is not so easy to be, the older ones speak first.

"Back to the empress, the imperial concubine was frightened and suddenly fainted. She is not in any serious health condition, but," the imperial doctor looked up at the queen, and continued, "The imperial concubine is two months pregnant!".

The people behind them no longer cared about taking pleasure in other's misfortunes, and tore the brocade handkerchief fiercely. The imperial concubine was pregnant. The imperial concubine who had been in the queen's backyard for nearly seven years was pregnant. To them, this was like a bolt from the blue.

Rao the queen guessed it a long time ago, and couldn't help turning blue, but she had to pretend to be concerned and asked, "How is the fetus in Concubine Wei's body?" The doctor gave bad news.

"Going back to your mother, it's not a serious problem. You just need to meditate for a few days." The imperial doctor wiped his sweat carefully, and was stared at by more than a dozen hungry wolves, Alexander.

"Well, which imperial doctor is in charge of the safety pulse of the noble concubine's sister? Once every ten days, why didn't it be reported earlier? And how did the close person take care of it? The noble concubine's sister suffered this disaster for nothing!"

When the queen heard that the concubine's fetus was fine, she pinched her trembling nails on the palm of her hand and continued, since the fetus is fine, let's take this opportunity to cut off your left and right arms.

Concubine Wei's close maid, Qiu Yu, stood behind the imperial physician, without making excuses, and knelt down to plead guilty, "My lord, please forgive me, it's the negligence of this servant girl, please punish me!"

The queen glanced at Qiu Yu indifferently, then glanced at the inner room with contempt, and said loudly to the people behind her, "It's not good for the protector, drag it down, and hit thirty big boards again.".

Qiu Yu was dragged down, and the people behind him also understood that the Queen did it on purpose, and couldn't help but gloat, hoping that Concubine Wei Guifei would be weak and could not bear the blow and would have a miscarriage.

Lying in the inner room, Concubine Wei Gui was already awake, her beautiful face was pale and transparent, she closed her eyes, her pale hands gripped the bed sheet resentfully.

Baozhu stood in the corner, quietly watching the performance of the queen and concubines, her quiet eyes were calm, it turned out that Concubine Wei was pregnant, it seemed that the harem was really going to be messed up.

"As for the imperial physician who requested Ping'an pulse for Concubine Wei, I will report back to the emperor!" The queen continued, scanning the two imperial physicians with her eyes.

The imperial doctor couldn't help shivering, the affairs of the harem really couldn't get mixed up, money is so easy to get, it's better to be loyal to the emperor, so as to save your life.

"Where is Ma Cairen, how is it?" After dealing with Concubine Wei, the Queen finally remembered the low-ranking talented person, and Baozhu also remembered that this was Ma Lijuan, who was selected from the same batch as her. I also checked, and there was no major threat, so I let it go.

The young imperial doctor moved forward tremblingly, wiped his forehead and said, "Mother, Ma Cairen has had a miscarriage."

"What did you say?" Not only the queen, but all the concubines were also in disbelief. Of course, although everyone had guessed when they saw the ticking scarlet, they still couldn't believe it.

Ma Cairen has not been favored since he entered the palace, he seems to be a little transparent person, but after two or three times of Cheng Huan, he was lucky to conceive a dragon species, but unfortunately passed away.

"Yes, Ma Cairen has been pregnant for more than a month. This time, she was hit in the abdomen and had a miscarriage." The imperial physician continued regardless of everyone's reactions.

"what happened?"

"Empress, you must make the decision for us." Ma Cairen's close maid jingled forward, knelt down with a "plop", and cried, "Empress, it was Concubine Wei's sedan chair that fell and hit the master. , I beg your empress to be the master."

"You get up first, follow the imperial physician to make medicine, first serve Ma Cairen well, I will definitely give her justice!".The queen looked meaningfully at Concubine Wei's inner room and said.

"Empress Xie" Ding Dang cried, followed the imperial doctor and left.

Baozhu sighed softly, the status is low, and if one is not careful, he will become a victim of the high-level game, so this talented person, after all, has lost his child.

The queen thought that the side hall of the Kunning Palace was defiled by two concubines, especially one who was pregnant, and she couldn't express her displeasure in her heart. Regardless of the whispers of the concubines, she turned and left.

"Come here, take all the people who carried the sedan chair today to the Punishment Department and interrogate them carefully."

"Yes!"

"All the sisters are gone, don't talk nonsense about today's affairs, go back to your own palace and wait for the news." The queen said with a dark face, raising her hand and kneading her brow, and waved her hand impatiently.

"Yes, the concubine is resigning!" Baozhu also retreated with the concubine, smiled at Zhang Zhaorong in a friendly way, and left separately.
