Chapter 26 Cold Sweat
Chapter 26 Cold Sweat
Hearing that the imperial physician had arrived, Nanny Li and Ziyue stopped talking, and looked at Ziyue for instructions, and Nanny Li ordered someone to go out and ask Yufu to bring the imperial physician in.
After the imperial physician came in to salute, he took Ziyue's pulse. After a long time, just as the imperial physician got up to speak, the impatient Yufu was not shy and asked, "Emperor physician, what's the matter? Why hasn't my master been seen for two months?"
The imperial doctor calmly got up with a smile on his face, but his eyes kept looking down, not daring to glance at it randomly: "Congratulations, noble! Your noble is a happy pulse, and it has been two months!"
Nanny Li was taken aback for a moment, and then asked with a smile on her face, "Is my nobleman in good health?"
He thought: No wonder the master eats a lot recently and has a tricky appetite. It turns out that he has two bodies. God bless, the queen mother is so happy now!
The Yufu on the side was also deeply surprised, and looked at the imperial doctor with a smile.
The imperial doctor said: "Your honor is in good health, you just need to pay attention to your diet, don't overwork yourself, and take good care of yourself."
The palace people in the house were overjoyed, they had no hope at all, now their master is pregnant, this is a great joy, they all knelt down and congratulated loudly.
Ziyue was also delighted, Li Nanny hurriedly asked the palace people to go to the Queen Mother and the Emperor to announce the good news, after all this was done, Li Nanny hurriedly asked Yu Fu to help Ziyue back to the bedroom, and she went to find some pregnant women usually like to eat Dessert melons and fruits.
In Kangshou Palace, Zhao Huangling was talking with the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager sighed slightly by chance, looked at her son and said: "Have you ever been lucky when the Emperor appointed Ning Guiren?"
Zhao Huangling raised his eyebrows, there was a smile in his eyes but it was better than no smile: "But Ning Guiren complained in front of the mother?"
The queen mother smiled slightly, and said leisurely: "Did she complain? Didn't the fish suit be reported to you?" After a short pause, she continued: "Zi Yue is a good boy, his background cannot be changed, but his conduct is good. Alas. The family said this, not to force you to go to her place, but to tell you that this girl is not as bad as you think. She also bumped into that incident by accident. If you are free, you might as well go and have a sit, especially if you let her That girl will cook for you and keep you eating, and she will be reluctant to part with it."
"The mother thinks so much of her? She doesn't even want her son!" Zhao Huangling smiled as his expression changed.
"What nonsense! How can you be compared with her, Aijia just pity her, let's say a few more words, if you don't like to hear, Aijia won't say anything in the future." The Queen Mother laughed and snorted, and said: "You don't like it, but the Ai family likes it very much. She serves the Ai family alone, and the Ai family still doesn't want to let her serve you!"
Before the emperor could reply, a nanny came in outside with a happy expression on her face, she shouted with joy when she came in, she said Ning Gui from Jichang Garden was pregnant, and the imperial physician had just diagnosed it, it has been two months.
Zhao Huangling's heart was shocked, he had just been successfully brainwashed by the Queen Mother, but at this moment he had to believe that Mrs. Ning Gui was really a blessed person, even the heavens favored him.She was pregnant just once, such a good thing, he has never encountered it since he had a woman, and it should be rare for others to have such a thing.
The queen mother was also surprised, and immediately smiled and said: "Good! Good! This is a great joy, Your Majesty, this is really a great joy!"
Even though he didn't like a woman very much, he was still happy when that woman had his heir, and said with a smile on his face: "Reward..." After reading a series of precious items, he said again: "Wei Xi, let the imperial hospital Take good care of Mr. Ning Gui."
Wei Xi responded with a smile all over his face, and was very moved by the magic of this noble Ning who had met several times before!
The queen mother also ordered people to reward a lot of things. If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Ning's status is too low, she would have wanted to visit Jichang Garden.
Feeling regretful in my heart, but also secretly sighing: I am really a blessed person, but I am afraid that this child will not be able to be kept by my side.As a mother, the most unbearable thing is the separation of mother and child!
Naturally, Zhao Huangling did not go to Jichang Garden to visit Ning Guiren, and after ordering Haosheng to take care of him, he left from Kangshou Palace.
The rewards like flowing water entered the Jichang Garden, and everyone in the palace knew that the newly appointed Ning Guiren was happy.I don't know how many veils in the palace were torn, how many porcelains were smashed, no matter how much, everyone still congratulated and sent a lot of things to Changyuan. Also sent a lot of things over.
Zi Yue naturally liked her own child, but she was not as surprised as the people in the palace, probably because she knew it a long time ago.Looking at the rewards and congratulations that filled the whole room, the master said: "List out all the things sent by the empresses of the palaces and open a separate warehouse for storage. Keep some of these pastries, and give the rest to the people below." " After a pause, he said again: "The rewards of the emperor and the empress dowager are listed in a booklet. I read the booklet for what I want, and you all keep it, and put the rest in the warehouse."
Ziyue sighed in his heart: Although these things belong to her now, it's a pity that they can't be tampered with. They are all for a clear purpose, and she can't take them out casually.It's not like before, even if the surrounding maids didn't see the Queen Mother's reward, even if they asked, Zi Yue would still have something to say back.She had to find a way to exchange these things for gold coins in the smart world. She was poor again after the last time, and there were not many gold coins in her account.
Why don't you put a cabinet in the dormitory, tell them that she wants to keep some things for herself, and then find a way to steal them?Well, this method is feasible, let Yufu do it later, and go to 001 in the evening.
It's a pity that Ziyue didn't go to bed early at night as he wished, but the emperor came.
The emperor's arrival was all exciting, and everyone in Jichang Garden except Ziyue was full of energy and beaming.
Ziyue didn't expect the emperor to come to see her, he was slightly surprised, but received her without arrogance or impetuosity.After serving the Empress Dowager, Zi Yue has nothing wrong with him now, but this is the Emperor, no matter how calm he is on the face, he is still a little nervous in his heart.
When Zhao Huangling saw Ziyue again, Ziyue's shiny and smooth snowy skin suddenly popped into his mind that day when the Weiyang Palace was doing something charming. It's a disgrace!
But seeing him today slightly overturned his thoughts.Taking a closer look, this Ning nobleman has delicate features hidden in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, his voice and smile are gentle, and there is a special charm under the rich clothes and brocades.Probably because of the pregnancy, the temperament is lazy, making people look more pleasing to the eye and in a good mood.The queen mother is not wrong, it really makes people feel good!
Zi said with a gentle smile: "Can the emperor have dinner?"
Zhao Huangling glanced at the food in the room, the color and aroma aroused his appetite, and said: "Never."
Wei Xi felt a 'thump' in his heart, when did the emperor learn to open his eyes and tell nonsense, he obviously just had a meal with the imperial concubine.
The emperor stayed to eat, so Ziyue naturally had to serve him. After someone set up a new set of bowls and chopsticks, she stood beside the emperor and served him.Zhao Huangling saw that she was skillful in her movements, and her gaze was impartial yet tender. This feeling made him very happy, but he also cared that she was pregnant with the child, so he said, "Sit down and eat together."
Ziyue bent her knees slightly and sat down next to the emperor. Although she cared about the emperor's presence, she didn't dare to eat too much, but after all, she had a child, so she definitely ate a lot, and the frequency of stretching her chopsticks was not low.
Over there, the emperor saw that the dishes on the table were actually very ordinary, and he only responded to the sentence just now by seeing the appearance and smelling the taste. In fact, he was already quite full, and now he was really at a loss as to what to do.
Watching the emperor move his chopsticks less, Zi Yue had to stop, and asked worriedly: "But the dishes don't meet the emperor's wishes?"
But I was complaining in my heart: Hey, why don't you come, but choose to come when you are eating, it's really not worrying.Today's meal was all ordered by her. It took a long time for Madam Li, and it won't taste good when it's cold. She really wants to eat it!
Zhao Huangling turned her head and glanced at Ziyue, just in time to catch her flashing eyes of "I really want to eat", and almost didn't laugh on the spot: "I see that my concubine eats deliciously, so I don't know which dish to eat first, Why don't you give me an introduction first?"
Hearing the sound of "Ai Fei", Zi Yue was taken aback, thinking that it was not when he was dazzled, he secretly glanced at the dishes on the table, swallowed his saliva, then smiled and said: "The concubine first introduces a few ministers to the emperor. My concubine thinks it’s not a bad dish.”
Seeing Zhao Huangling nodding his head, Ziyue listed the names of the dishes on the table one by one.Sweet and sour carp, braised pork with preserved vegetables, braised pork trotters, chicken stewed with mushrooms, spicy chicken, roasted pork ribs in iced plum sauce, cold pig ears, boiled beef.All meat dishes, not a single vegetarian dish.After finishing speaking, Zi Yue's face also turned red, and he lowered his head slightly, revealing a part of his pink neck.
After knowing that Ziyue was pregnant, Nanny Li quickly asked her old sisters for advice. Today, when Ziyue wanted to eat these dishes, Nanny Li was very embarrassed, it was too nasty!And several dishes are very spicy!Originally, Nanny Li thought it would be good to add two more vegetarian dishes, but Ziyue just disagreed, saying that she couldn't eat after looking at the vegetarian dishes. Finally, after Ziyue talked for a long time, Nanny Li let go of her agreement.
After hearing the names of this bunch of meat dishes, Zhao Huangling also felt bored, but seeing Ziyue's shy and eager appearance, he suddenly found it interesting and continued to tease her: "The concubine said Say, which one is better for me to try first?"
Ziyue thought about it, she didn't have the guts to let the emperor eat boiled beef and spicy chicken, which were specially ordered to be cooked abnormally spicy, so she suggested: "I think the emperor can have a taste of the pork ribs with ice flower plum sauce. It’s good to have this cold pig’s ears.”
After speaking, he picked up the serving chopsticks and put some into the dishes in front of Zhao Huangling, swallowing secretly.She was anxious, she was obviously not a foodie in the past, why did she have such a heavy appetite once she had a bun? !Could it be that this is a foodie in my stomach?
Zhao Huangling tasted it, and it tasted really good, but it was no better than the one made by the imperial chef. Thinking of the empress dowager's praise, he said, "Who made these dishes? It's not the same as the imperial chef's."
Zi Yue smiled and said: "These dishes were researched by my concubine when I was in the Empress Dowager's Palace, and now I have someone cook them if I want to eat them. Does the Emperor like it?"
Zhao Huangling didn't nod or shake his head, just said: "The empress praised Aifei's culinary skills, and she has a lot of research in food, but now Aifei has a child, I don't have that kind of food."
Ziyue's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "The emperor wants to eat, and the concubine will obey his orders. It's not a big problem to cook a few dishes. Why don't the concubines prepare it for the emperor now?"
"Don't be busy. Since my concubine likes to study food, I will allow Jichangyuan to have a small kitchen. When I am free, my concubine will cook for me." Zhao Huangling watched Ziyue's eyes shine, and he came more and more interest.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zi said, standing up and thanking him.God, she can finally find something to do. Ever since she became pregnant, Nanny Li didn't even let her touch her embroidery work. Now she can't do anything. Now that she has the emperor's golden words, she can finally find something to do After the small kitchen is built, she must go to the smart world to buy a few cookbooks, study them carefully, and supplement the children.She wouldn't say that she was greedy, she definitely didn't!
Zhao Huangling did not ignore the look of surprise and radiance in Zi Yue's eyes, thinking that she had been happy for a while, and she couldn't starve her child... Damn, Gu said: "My concubine, please sit down and eat."
The emperor was in a surprisingly good mood, and even used up half a bowl of rice.After getting permission from the small kitchen, Ziyue happily ate another bowl than usual. Seeing that the emperor had only eaten half a bowl, and the man was still staring at her with interest, she was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: " Chen Qie, Chen Qie is still growing, so eat more." After finishing, he added: "And Chen Qie still has a mouth in her stomach."
Except for Zhao Huangling who laughed in front of her face, the other waiters in the room were holding back their laughter and shrugging their shoulders.
"What Aifei said is, eat more." As she spoke, she also picked up a chicken leg for Ziyue.
After saying that, Zi Yue regretted it. Others said that she was pregnant and stupid for three years, and it was true!Staring at the chicken legs in the bowl, she didn't want to eat it, and she didn't want to eat it.
Zhao Huangling smiled lightly and said, "Why don't you eat?"
Ziyue raised his head and glanced at Zhao Huangling, seeing the playfulness in his eyes, he was taken aback, and suddenly became a little annoyed, he took a bite of the chicken leg to vent his anger.
Seeing this, Zhao Huangling clenched his fist and put it on his lips and coughed twice, to hide his smile, and said with concern: "Aifei is just a matter of growing her body, she should eat more, besides..." He paused, Eyes aimed at Zi Yueping's flat belly: "I can't starve my son!"
The few words were full of smiles, and there was that playful look in his eyes, Zi Yue bit the drumstick, wishing he could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.
Because Ziyue is pregnant, it is reasonable to not stay overnight, and Zhao Huangling originally planned to come and see, but never thought of staying overnight, so he happily left after dinner.On the contrary, he left Ziyue's thoughts of being depressed there, and it's fine to be treated as a joke, and the meal was so overwhelming, it's really annoying!
After a while, she felt that this was fine, the emperor didn't annoy her, and he found something interesting in her, so she could be counted as cleansing herself from the emperor. As for the superior, take your time.Now that you have a child, even though there is a smart world, you still have to be careful not to be too eager for quick success.
In the evening, Ziyue happily entered the smart world, and bought a 'Phantom', which was just like the name, and it was just able to cover up that she was exchanging some of the rewards from the Queen Mother.At that moment, she exchanged the things left in the box and handed them over to 001 for auction.
Ziyue's life didn't change much after she became pregnant. The Empress Dowager was considerate of her, forbidding her to ask for peace, and ordered people not to disturb her at Jichang Garden.Interested people wanted to visit, but because of the Queen Mother's order, they didn't dare. Besides, Jichang Garden is also close to the Queen Mother's Kangshou Palace, so no one dared to obey the Queen Mother.
When I am free, I go outside to bask in the sun to replenish calcium when there is sunshine. After dinner, I take a walk in the yard to digest food.On weekdays, I go to the Empress Dowager when I have free time. Now the Empress Dowager does not let her serve meals, but just chats with her. Most of the time, she tells her some things that pregnant women should pay attention to. Occasionally, she will tell a few stories about the emperor when he was a child. .
Most of the time, Ziyue was still staying in Jichang Garden. With the emperor's will, the small kitchen was built very quickly, and Ziyue also had a new start. The emperor said to study recipes, and even Madam Li had to follow. .Fortunately, Ziyue has always been in good health, and the imperial physician also said that he was very healthy, so Nanny Li let Ziyue cook with confidence.
The emperor hadn't been to Jichang Garden since that night, probably because he had never stepped into the harem. Hearing Madam Li mention it, it seemed that something happened in the previous dynasty.
In a blink of an eye, Ziyue's stomach was three months old, and the Empress Dowager Shengci, who never cared about things in the palace, suddenly issued an order to summon Ziyue.
After receiving this decree, Ziyue panicked immediately. The former emperor's original concubine, the current empress dowager, had been in the palace for more than half a year, but she had never seen her face to face, and she was even more confused about the empress dowager's temperament.When she was in Kangshou Palace before, she heard by chance that the empress dowagers of the two palaces had a good relationship on the surface, but they were not.The nanny didn't talk too much about such spicy things in the palace, and she didn't dare to ask nonsense.
Nanny Li naturally knew the inside story, so she didn't say much, she just comforted her son and said: "Master, you can relax, the empress dowager is kind, if you want to see your master, you probably want to see this unborn little prince."
With Mother Li's comfort, Zi Yue's mentality improved a lot. She was mainly afraid...now that everyone in the palace knew that the Empress Dowager was protecting her.After all, in terms of blood relationship, the child in her womb has nothing to do with that one.
After arriving at the Mingci Palace of the Empress Dowager Shengci, Ziyue also met another great empress who was in the palace without seeing her head and tail.Because it was the first time they met, Ziyue knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times to salute her. The Empress Dowager Shengci didn't make things difficult for her, and she was given a seat after she woke up.
The empress looked grand and dignified, she thought she had been sick for a long time, her complexion was not good, and her eyes also showed a trace of fatigue and sickness, when she saw Zi Yue, she said in a soft voice: "Today I heard that the empress summoned Ning Guiren, it is rare for me to step out of the palace gate, I didn't congratulate Ning Guiren either, so I came to add my congratulations today."
Ziyue put on a reserved look, thanked her with a subtle smile, and posted a few words to let the queen take care of herself.
Immediately afterwards, the queen asked a few more questions about the pregnancy, and Ziyue took care of them one by one.She also didn't understand in her heart, the empress dowager was summoned by the empress dowager, why was it the empress who was asking questions?
It wasn't until the queen's face was full of fatigue that Ziyue was about to leave. Before leaving, the Empress Dowager Shengci called out two nuns, saying that they would serve Ziyue.
Ziyue was shocked, and his expression was a little stiff. After he calmed down, he immediately knelt on the ground and said softly: "I hope the empress dowager forgive me! It was originally given by the elders, and I can't refuse it. The concubine's status is low, and I have already received the pity of the empress dowager." , gave Li Nanny to follow around, and then gave a Zhang Nanny. Now accepting the gift from the Holy Empress Dowager, the concubines are terrified. The empress is in command of the harem, her appearance and bearing are a model of the harem, and the rules of the harem are strict The courtiers and concubines also know that they abide by the palace rules, and dare not go overboard!"
The Empress Dowager Shengci lost face immediately, but she didn't show it. She has already listed the reasons why she can't ask for someone. It is true that a noble person is pregnant, and it is true that she does not need four nuns. Everyone else in the palace didn't think much of it, especially the emperor.
Immediately afterwards, Ziyue kowtowed again and said: "The concubine has wasted the empress dowager's caring heart, please forgive me the empress dowager."
The sound of the head knocking on the ground was real, the queen was startled, and ordered someone to help him up quickly, if something happened to this man in Mingci Palace, he would not be able to tell with a hundred mouths.
Empress Cai only felt that Ning Gui had a certain amount of advance and retreat, and she didn't seem to be born as a court lady at all, but now that she came out, she had to look up to Ning Gui, who was born as a court lady.
Seeing nobleman Ning standing up gracefully, with red and swollen forehead, the queen also smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Ning is a man with a body now, so remember to put your body first. The queen mother only cares about you, so don't be afraid."
At this time, Empress Dowager Shengci also came to her senses: "Okay, you have no blessings to enjoy, and Aijia doesn't force you. Aijia sees that the Empress likes you very much, and you will go to Fengqi Palace to pay her respects to the Empress more often in the future. "
Ziyue bowed his knees to thank him, Li Nanny at the side said calmly that it was time for Mrs. Ning Gui to drink the medicine, the Empress Dowager Shengci and the Empress said a few words of comfort before letting Ziyue go.
When he came out of Mingci Palace, Ziyue was already dripping with cold sweat, and the clothes on his back were completely soaked.
Yu Fu supported her, and asked nervously: "Master, will this servant go and get you an imperial physician?"
Nanny Li stopped her, and said: "You are younger and stronger than my old lady. You help the master back to the palace, and I will invite the imperial physician."
Ziyue knew that Nanny Li was going to report today's matter to the Queen Mother in Kangshou Palace, and she did not stop her. With her current status, she can resist once, but it does not mean that she can pass the test safely every time. here.Thinking, she touched her stomach, there are birth control pills, the child should be fine.
Seeing this, Yufu said softly: "Master is usually healthy, so little master must be fine."
Ziyue nodded and did not make another sound.
After returning to Jichang Garden, Ziyue changed clothes under the service of Yufu, and lay limp on the bed, only then did he have time to think about what the Empress Dowager Shengci and the empress were doing today.The queen is the niece of the Empress Dowager Shengci. After the prince under her name died of illness, she has been in poor health. Not to mention no favours, she doesn't even have royal power.Could it be that Empress Dowager Shengci and the Empress are trying to find a puppet?This possibility exists, but there is a bigger possibility that she doesn't want to think about.
After all, her status is too low, and when she has a child, other than plotting, there are also people who are covetous!
Falling asleep and entering the smart world, Ziyue confides to 001 the boredom in her heart. Although Nanny Li and Yufu can tell them what is in their hearts, they must be constant, not everything can be said casually.
At the end, Zi Yue said with emotion as if complaining: "I really don't know if it's good luck or bad luck that this lucky stone came here."
The number 001 will not comfort people. It is still the same sentence: "You have to believe in the fortune stone. As far as I know now, the fortune stone has not undergone a qualitative change, and everything is good."
Ziyue smiled and leaned against 001: "I'm just complaining, not questioning the fortune stone. Now things are like this, I have long accepted the series of reactions caused by the fortune stone. It's just that when something happened today, I I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. Originally, I thought to wait until the emperor likes it first, then I will have a certain status and then have a child, but now because all the fortune stones have been reversed, I can’t raise my own child after giving birth, so I feel uncomfortable.”
Number 001 understood her words and nodded: "The world is impermanent, you have to get used to it."
Thinking of the ultimate consequences of the Lucky Stone, he opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything, he didn't understand feelings, he didn't know what words to use to comfort Ziyue, and there were some things he couldn't reveal, so it was best to be concise.
Ziyue took a deep breath, smiled and said, "Thank you, 001, thank you for always being with me!"
Number 001 blinked: "I am your butler."
Just as she was about to say a few more words to 001, Ziyue heard someone calling her again. After glancing at 001, Ziyue exited the smart world, acting as if she had just woken up from exhaustion.
Nanny Li stood at the end of the bed and said with an apologetic smile: "The old slave thinks that the master is quite tired today, for the sake of the little master, the master is still asking the imperial doctor to take a pulse before resting?"
Ziyue rubbed her forehead and nodded, Yufu put down the gauze bed curtain, and then Ziyue heard footsteps, faintly saw an imperial doctor come in to take her pulse.
After checking the pulse, the imperial doctor just said that there is no serious problem, so that the mood should not fluctuate too much, and it is enough to have a good life.
Ziyue was not in a hurry to let the imperial physician leave, and said leisurely: "I have a good appetite recently, I have eaten a lot of snacks and meals, and I am afraid of food accumulation, what can the imperial physician diagnose?"
The imperial doctor was startled, and his face froze: "Don't worry, nobleman, your body is fine, it's just that the medicine is three-point poisonous, I will write down some medicinal diets to help digestion later, and it can be used as a meal on weekdays." .”
After Ziyue nodded, he asked Yufu to send the imperial physician out.
After seeing off the imperial doctor, Yufu and Nanny Li rolled up the bed curtain, and Nanny Li took out a light green bottle, which was small and exquisite in appearance, and the color was light and elegant, it was very beautiful.
After Mammy Li opened it, there was a faint fragrance: "The queen mother knew that the master's forehead was injured, so she specially rewarded it to the master. This thing is precious, and it will never leave scars after wiping it. Can I wipe it for you?"
Zi said he nodded and agreed.She had already transformed the Refuge Pill into a silver ring and put it on her left index finger, with faint lines engraved on it, which looked very nice when viewed up close. The silver ring did not sound an alarm, which meant that it was harmless to her.
After applying the medicine, Zi Yue half-opened his eyes and forced a smile and said, "Ma'am, go to Kangshou Palace for me, so that the Empress Dowager can feel at ease."
Nanny Li was able to take out the ointment in such a timely manner, which showed that she would not hide anything from her. Although she played an important role in this matter, she only had to rely on the Queen Mother.It's just that just a while ago, I'm afraid Nanny Li couldn't explain clearly.
She responded with a smile, and waited for Ziyue to fall asleep before Nanny Li and Yufu left the dormitory.
After Li Nanny arrived at Kangshou Palace, the Empress Dowager retreated to the left and right, leaving only her confidantes, and Li Nanny told the details of today's Mingci Palace in detail.
The empress dowager's heart sank, and she sighed heavily: "My good sister of the Ai family, she really made a good plan!" The last few words almost popped out between her teeth, one can imagine how angry the empress dowager was.
Nurse Ming at the side hurriedly stepped forward to caress the Queen Mother's back, and said: "Queen Mother, please calm down. Fortunately, Mrs. Ning Gui is a smart person, but she suffered some physical pain while pregnant. It's really pitiful."
The Queen Mother just thought of it, and asked Madam Li: "Can the imperial doctor go see it? What should I say?"
Nanny Li said: "It's just that I was frightened, and I told you not to get too emotional, it's not a serious problem." Sighing slightly, she said: "Master Ning's body is usually fine, if it's that weak person, it's not a big deal." I was scared out of my wits.”
The Empress Dowager nodded appreciatively: "She has never disappointed Ai's family, Ai's family rewarded me with something, and I will take them back with me later." After a pause, the Empress Dowager asked solemnly: "You came out like this, are you covering it up? "
Nanny Li paused, and hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother doesn't need to worry. Master Ning thought that she had hired an imperial doctor, and he must not hide it from the Queen Mother, so he ordered the servants to come here so that Tai Hao can rest assured."
The Queen Mother nodded reassuringly: "Go back and take good care of her. Don't make any mistakes. Just come and tell Ai's family if there is anything missing."
Nanny Li smiled and nodded yes, and said something like Ning Guiren's good fortune.
Nanny Ming also said at the right time: "Mr. Ning Gui is used to making people feel at ease, and it is not in vain for the Queen Mother to favor her."
The queen mother smiled and didn't speak any more, but her expression could clearly see that she agreed with Nanny Ming's words.
After the imperial physician left Jichang Garden, everyone in the palace knew that Mrs. Ning Gui invited the imperial physician as soon as she came out of Mingci Palace, but when they heard that the imperial physician was hired because of accumulated food, everyone didn't take it seriously.Because Ning Guiren can eat after pregnancy, everyone in the palace knows this, and they all wondered if something happened in Mingci Palace at first.But this incident also became a joke in the palace.
The imperial doctor who diagnosed Ning Guiren had just returned to the imperial hospital, and was told several times by others. Before leaving, Ning Guiren's inexplicable words shocked him, and thinking that Ning Guiren had been to Mingci Palace, he was even more displeased. Those who dare to tell the truth, those who follow the vines and climb the poles, will tell others that Ning Gui just ate too much and accumulated food.As for the pulse case, he didn't prescribe a prescription for Ning Guiren. Of course, he wrote about accumulated food, and he also attached a few medicinal meals.
The Queen Mother knew the truth, and after learning of the rumor, she admired Zi Yue even more.It's just that there is also a hidden worry in her heart. If she can't catch such a person, it will be a disaster!Thinking of what Nanny Li said, she wasn't very worried about this hidden danger. The day was for her, so she didn't have to worry.
The first thing Zhao Huangling heard was the imperial physician's words, and he couldn't help laughing that Ning Gui could really eat it, and he was so precious that he invited the imperial physician.At the same time, he also missed the atmosphere of the dinner together that night. In the past few days, he was busy with government affairs and never stepped into the harem.After hearing this interesting story, he immediately rewarded a lot of things to Jichang Garden, but after Yufu's report made him silent for a while, he added some things to reward, and refreshed his impression of Ning Guiren in his heart.
Perhaps the queen mother is right, he shouldn't look at Ning Guiren with colored eyes, this woman, as far as he knows these few times, does have a lot of merit.With a slight smile, he immediately promoted Ning Guiren to Ning Ronghua.Of course, the reason is sufficient, and the birth of the emperor's heir is meritorious.
The queen mother was naturally happy with the emperor's move, Ziyue was also happy when she was promoted and had gold and silver in her account.She thought about why the emperor had a convulsion to give her a promotion. It must be because of today's incident, she started conspiracy theory. Could it be that the emperor dislikes the Holy Empress Dowager very much?So today she rejected Empress Dowager Shengci, the emperor thought she was quite sensible, so he was happy and gave her the position?She couldn't figure out the reason, and she didn't think about it anymore. A promotion is always a good thing.
But except for these two people who were happy, the other concubines were not very happy.Oh, of course there is one exception, the imperial concubine is getting more and more interested in watching the theater.Except for Ning Ronghua, who came out halfway through the sky, and her long-awaited draft has quietly kicked off!
Ziyue is somewhat interested in the talent show. She must be excited to watch such a selection of beauties with her own eyes. She has read so many novels, and now the scene is reappearing, she is really moved.It's just that her status and current physical condition don't allow her to watch it live.
After the start of the draft, the most popular thing is which show girl is outstanding in appearance, which show girl is graceful, which show girl is multi-talented and so on.Ziyue can only follow the gossip to live a dry addiction, and can't do anything.
Ziyue is not just gossip, these people are all potential enemies, isn't there a saying that is good, knowing yourself and your enemy is the only way to win a hundred battles?Moreover, in this draft, there are some people with high family backgrounds, and I am afraid that if they enter the palace, they will have to be higher than her.
Among this year's show girls, the one Ziyue heard the most was Lin Jinghao, who was rumored to have a very beautiful appearance and a soft temperament. What's more, it was said that this girl was synonymous with everything beautiful.Ziyue also asked about Lin Jinghao's family background. Her father was a civil servant, and his official position was a bit higher than that of the concubine's father in the palace. It is a big deal to enter the palace.
Secondly, it is rumored that a woman surnamed Jiang who is in love with the emperor at the age of eighteen is still waiting for the emperor. This time the draft is not just the arrival of Baba, the age just reaches the upper limit.I heard that she is also a rare beauty, but her family background is not prominent enough.
There is another person who is particularly eye-catching, and that is a beautiful daughter of the Empress Dowager Shengci's family, she can be regarded as the Empress Dowager Shengci's niece, but the relationship may not be as close as the empress.
What's more, it's all fragmentary information, Ziyue can't show great interest, but occasionally talk to Yufu and Nanny Li when she's bored, and don't ask too much, lest they will guess whether she has something else idea.
After the ten-day primary election, there were only more than a hundred outstanding girls left. After the re-election, there were only four to fifty people left, and these people will live in the palace for a month, learning the etiquette and rules of the palace, Finally, the emperor, empress dowager, and noble concubines were selected together.
Because of the draft, all the concubines in the palace set their sights on those beautiful women. Even though Ning Ronghua is pregnant, but her background is such that she can't make any trouble.But those show girls are different, and some of the prominent family backgrounds have to be on guard in advance.
After the turbulent primary election and re-election, the palace seemed to have calmed down, and Ziri had no motivation to gossip every day, and her belly had been more than four months old, and it was round and pregnant.Ziyue prepared the prenatal education books early on, and would operate according to the books every day.
Nanny Li has seen pregnant women, but she has never seen such a troublesome one. She didn't put her heart back until the imperial doctor came to check the pulse and said that there was nothing wrong and the baby was healthy.
Yufu has never given birth before, and has never seen a pregnant woman before, so he feels novelty about what Ziyue said, and walks around Ziyue happily every day, watching Li Nanny always shaking her head speechlessly, these two people really live more and more gone back.
There are too many people in the palace, although those beautiful girls can't walk around at will, but the queen mother still told Ziyue to stay in Jichang garden more in the near future, and come to Kangshou palace when bored, so as not to be caught by some blind people when walking outside. Got bumped.
Of course Ziyue agreed, and he also knew who the empress dowager was talking about. The distant niece of the Empress Dowager Shengci was probably used by the family, or because of her own family background, she was unruly and self-willed after entering the palace, although she was rarely seen in front of others. She behaves well and knows how to cover up, but some things will still reach the ears of the Queen Mother.After all, this Xu Tianjiao is the opponent's niece, whether they are close or not, it is an indisputable fact that they are of the same clan, and it is necessary to take more precautions.
The Queen Mother will basically not interfere with the kind of woman the emperor chooses, as long as those women do not touch her bottom line, she will not care.Of course, after many years in the palace, she has never seen any methods, so she naturally doesn't have much affection for these women.
Ziyue was considered an accident in the eyes of the Queen Mother, but it was not.Ziyue is her favorite court lady, the woman who became a son by chance, every word and deed of the canonized posthumous Ziyue is under her nose, she appreciates Ziyue's knowledge of current affairs, and also likes her never-ending heart Change of heart.In her heart, Ziyue was different from the daughters of those courtiers.
No matter whether Xiu girls come from a prominent or humble family background, they are all tools sent to the palace by their families to gain power. From the starting point, Zi Yue's pure wealth is even better.In terms of eyesight, the queen mother doesn't understand those beautiful girls with beautiful skins. Even if she understands, she will become rotten after entering the palace.And she has long been used to being served by Ziyue, and now Ziyue is surrounded by her people, so she is absolutely at ease.
The emperor owns the Sangong and Six Courtyards, and the queen mother cannot choose a woman she likes to be his son's wife, because the queen must have a prominent family background and be a great help to the emperor's government, but she can choose one she likes to comfort her as a mother's heart.Undoubtedly, Ziyue is a good candidate. Her family background is not what she is looking for, but her character.
(End of this chapter)
Hearing that the imperial physician had arrived, Nanny Li and Ziyue stopped talking, and looked at Ziyue for instructions, and Nanny Li ordered someone to go out and ask Yufu to bring the imperial physician in.
After the imperial physician came in to salute, he took Ziyue's pulse. After a long time, just as the imperial physician got up to speak, the impatient Yufu was not shy and asked, "Emperor physician, what's the matter? Why hasn't my master been seen for two months?"
The imperial doctor calmly got up with a smile on his face, but his eyes kept looking down, not daring to glance at it randomly: "Congratulations, noble! Your noble is a happy pulse, and it has been two months!"
Nanny Li was taken aback for a moment, and then asked with a smile on her face, "Is my nobleman in good health?"
He thought: No wonder the master eats a lot recently and has a tricky appetite. It turns out that he has two bodies. God bless, the queen mother is so happy now!
The Yufu on the side was also deeply surprised, and looked at the imperial doctor with a smile.
The imperial doctor said: "Your honor is in good health, you just need to pay attention to your diet, don't overwork yourself, and take good care of yourself."
The palace people in the house were overjoyed, they had no hope at all, now their master is pregnant, this is a great joy, they all knelt down and congratulated loudly.
Ziyue was also delighted, Li Nanny hurriedly asked the palace people to go to the Queen Mother and the Emperor to announce the good news, after all this was done, Li Nanny hurriedly asked Yu Fu to help Ziyue back to the bedroom, and she went to find some pregnant women usually like to eat Dessert melons and fruits.
In Kangshou Palace, Zhao Huangling was talking with the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager sighed slightly by chance, looked at her son and said: "Have you ever been lucky when the Emperor appointed Ning Guiren?"
Zhao Huangling raised his eyebrows, there was a smile in his eyes but it was better than no smile: "But Ning Guiren complained in front of the mother?"
The queen mother smiled slightly, and said leisurely: "Did she complain? Didn't the fish suit be reported to you?" After a short pause, she continued: "Zi Yue is a good boy, his background cannot be changed, but his conduct is good. Alas. The family said this, not to force you to go to her place, but to tell you that this girl is not as bad as you think. She also bumped into that incident by accident. If you are free, you might as well go and have a sit, especially if you let her That girl will cook for you and keep you eating, and she will be reluctant to part with it."
"The mother thinks so much of her? She doesn't even want her son!" Zhao Huangling smiled as his expression changed.
"What nonsense! How can you be compared with her, Aijia just pity her, let's say a few more words, if you don't like to hear, Aijia won't say anything in the future." The Queen Mother laughed and snorted, and said: "You don't like it, but the Ai family likes it very much. She serves the Ai family alone, and the Ai family still doesn't want to let her serve you!"
Before the emperor could reply, a nanny came in outside with a happy expression on her face, she shouted with joy when she came in, she said Ning Gui from Jichang Garden was pregnant, and the imperial physician had just diagnosed it, it has been two months.
Zhao Huangling's heart was shocked, he had just been successfully brainwashed by the Queen Mother, but at this moment he had to believe that Mrs. Ning Gui was really a blessed person, even the heavens favored him.She was pregnant just once, such a good thing, he has never encountered it since he had a woman, and it should be rare for others to have such a thing.
The queen mother was also surprised, and immediately smiled and said: "Good! Good! This is a great joy, Your Majesty, this is really a great joy!"
Even though he didn't like a woman very much, he was still happy when that woman had his heir, and said with a smile on his face: "Reward..." After reading a series of precious items, he said again: "Wei Xi, let the imperial hospital Take good care of Mr. Ning Gui."
Wei Xi responded with a smile all over his face, and was very moved by the magic of this noble Ning who had met several times before!
The queen mother also ordered people to reward a lot of things. If it weren't for the fact that Mrs. Ning's status is too low, she would have wanted to visit Jichang Garden.
Feeling regretful in my heart, but also secretly sighing: I am really a blessed person, but I am afraid that this child will not be able to be kept by my side.As a mother, the most unbearable thing is the separation of mother and child!
Naturally, Zhao Huangling did not go to Jichang Garden to visit Ning Guiren, and after ordering Haosheng to take care of him, he left from Kangshou Palace.
The rewards like flowing water entered the Jichang Garden, and everyone in the palace knew that the newly appointed Ning Guiren was happy.I don't know how many veils in the palace were torn, how many porcelains were smashed, no matter how much, everyone still congratulated and sent a lot of things to Changyuan. Also sent a lot of things over.
Zi Yue naturally liked her own child, but she was not as surprised as the people in the palace, probably because she knew it a long time ago.Looking at the rewards and congratulations that filled the whole room, the master said: "List out all the things sent by the empresses of the palaces and open a separate warehouse for storage. Keep some of these pastries, and give the rest to the people below." " After a pause, he said again: "The rewards of the emperor and the empress dowager are listed in a booklet. I read the booklet for what I want, and you all keep it, and put the rest in the warehouse."
Ziyue sighed in his heart: Although these things belong to her now, it's a pity that they can't be tampered with. They are all for a clear purpose, and she can't take them out casually.It's not like before, even if the surrounding maids didn't see the Queen Mother's reward, even if they asked, Zi Yue would still have something to say back.She had to find a way to exchange these things for gold coins in the smart world. She was poor again after the last time, and there were not many gold coins in her account.
Why don't you put a cabinet in the dormitory, tell them that she wants to keep some things for herself, and then find a way to steal them?Well, this method is feasible, let Yufu do it later, and go to 001 in the evening.
It's a pity that Ziyue didn't go to bed early at night as he wished, but the emperor came.
The emperor's arrival was all exciting, and everyone in Jichang Garden except Ziyue was full of energy and beaming.
Ziyue didn't expect the emperor to come to see her, he was slightly surprised, but received her without arrogance or impetuosity.After serving the Empress Dowager, Zi Yue has nothing wrong with him now, but this is the Emperor, no matter how calm he is on the face, he is still a little nervous in his heart.
When Zhao Huangling saw Ziyue again, Ziyue's shiny and smooth snowy skin suddenly popped into his mind that day when the Weiyang Palace was doing something charming. It's a disgrace!
But seeing him today slightly overturned his thoughts.Taking a closer look, this Ning nobleman has delicate features hidden in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes, his voice and smile are gentle, and there is a special charm under the rich clothes and brocades.Probably because of the pregnancy, the temperament is lazy, making people look more pleasing to the eye and in a good mood.The queen mother is not wrong, it really makes people feel good!
Zi said with a gentle smile: "Can the emperor have dinner?"
Zhao Huangling glanced at the food in the room, the color and aroma aroused his appetite, and said: "Never."
Wei Xi felt a 'thump' in his heart, when did the emperor learn to open his eyes and tell nonsense, he obviously just had a meal with the imperial concubine.
The emperor stayed to eat, so Ziyue naturally had to serve him. After someone set up a new set of bowls and chopsticks, she stood beside the emperor and served him.Zhao Huangling saw that she was skillful in her movements, and her gaze was impartial yet tender. This feeling made him very happy, but he also cared that she was pregnant with the child, so he said, "Sit down and eat together."
Ziyue bent her knees slightly and sat down next to the emperor. Although she cared about the emperor's presence, she didn't dare to eat too much, but after all, she had a child, so she definitely ate a lot, and the frequency of stretching her chopsticks was not low.
Over there, the emperor saw that the dishes on the table were actually very ordinary, and he only responded to the sentence just now by seeing the appearance and smelling the taste. In fact, he was already quite full, and now he was really at a loss as to what to do.
Watching the emperor move his chopsticks less, Zi Yue had to stop, and asked worriedly: "But the dishes don't meet the emperor's wishes?"
But I was complaining in my heart: Hey, why don't you come, but choose to come when you are eating, it's really not worrying.Today's meal was all ordered by her. It took a long time for Madam Li, and it won't taste good when it's cold. She really wants to eat it!
Zhao Huangling turned her head and glanced at Ziyue, just in time to catch her flashing eyes of "I really want to eat", and almost didn't laugh on the spot: "I see that my concubine eats deliciously, so I don't know which dish to eat first, Why don't you give me an introduction first?"
Hearing the sound of "Ai Fei", Zi Yue was taken aback, thinking that it was not when he was dazzled, he secretly glanced at the dishes on the table, swallowed his saliva, then smiled and said: "The concubine first introduces a few ministers to the emperor. My concubine thinks it’s not a bad dish.”
Seeing Zhao Huangling nodding his head, Ziyue listed the names of the dishes on the table one by one.Sweet and sour carp, braised pork with preserved vegetables, braised pork trotters, chicken stewed with mushrooms, spicy chicken, roasted pork ribs in iced plum sauce, cold pig ears, boiled beef.All meat dishes, not a single vegetarian dish.After finishing speaking, Zi Yue's face also turned red, and he lowered his head slightly, revealing a part of his pink neck.
After knowing that Ziyue was pregnant, Nanny Li quickly asked her old sisters for advice. Today, when Ziyue wanted to eat these dishes, Nanny Li was very embarrassed, it was too nasty!And several dishes are very spicy!Originally, Nanny Li thought it would be good to add two more vegetarian dishes, but Ziyue just disagreed, saying that she couldn't eat after looking at the vegetarian dishes. Finally, after Ziyue talked for a long time, Nanny Li let go of her agreement.
After hearing the names of this bunch of meat dishes, Zhao Huangling also felt bored, but seeing Ziyue's shy and eager appearance, he suddenly found it interesting and continued to tease her: "The concubine said Say, which one is better for me to try first?"
Ziyue thought about it, she didn't have the guts to let the emperor eat boiled beef and spicy chicken, which were specially ordered to be cooked abnormally spicy, so she suggested: "I think the emperor can have a taste of the pork ribs with ice flower plum sauce. It’s good to have this cold pig’s ears.”
After speaking, he picked up the serving chopsticks and put some into the dishes in front of Zhao Huangling, swallowing secretly.She was anxious, she was obviously not a foodie in the past, why did she have such a heavy appetite once she had a bun? !Could it be that this is a foodie in my stomach?
Zhao Huangling tasted it, and it tasted really good, but it was no better than the one made by the imperial chef. Thinking of the empress dowager's praise, he said, "Who made these dishes? It's not the same as the imperial chef's."
Zi Yue smiled and said: "These dishes were researched by my concubine when I was in the Empress Dowager's Palace, and now I have someone cook them if I want to eat them. Does the Emperor like it?"
Zhao Huangling didn't nod or shake his head, just said: "The empress praised Aifei's culinary skills, and she has a lot of research in food, but now Aifei has a child, I don't have that kind of food."
Ziyue's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "The emperor wants to eat, and the concubine will obey his orders. It's not a big problem to cook a few dishes. Why don't the concubines prepare it for the emperor now?"
"Don't be busy. Since my concubine likes to study food, I will allow Jichangyuan to have a small kitchen. When I am free, my concubine will cook for me." Zhao Huangling watched Ziyue's eyes shine, and he came more and more interest.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zi said, standing up and thanking him.God, she can finally find something to do. Ever since she became pregnant, Nanny Li didn't even let her touch her embroidery work. Now she can't do anything. Now that she has the emperor's golden words, she can finally find something to do After the small kitchen is built, she must go to the smart world to buy a few cookbooks, study them carefully, and supplement the children.She wouldn't say that she was greedy, she definitely didn't!
Zhao Huangling did not ignore the look of surprise and radiance in Zi Yue's eyes, thinking that she had been happy for a while, and she couldn't starve her child... Damn, Gu said: "My concubine, please sit down and eat."
The emperor was in a surprisingly good mood, and even used up half a bowl of rice.After getting permission from the small kitchen, Ziyue happily ate another bowl than usual. Seeing that the emperor had only eaten half a bowl, and the man was still staring at her with interest, she was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly said: " Chen Qie, Chen Qie is still growing, so eat more." After finishing, he added: "And Chen Qie still has a mouth in her stomach."
Except for Zhao Huangling who laughed in front of her face, the other waiters in the room were holding back their laughter and shrugging their shoulders.
"What Aifei said is, eat more." As she spoke, she also picked up a chicken leg for Ziyue.
After saying that, Zi Yue regretted it. Others said that she was pregnant and stupid for three years, and it was true!Staring at the chicken legs in the bowl, she didn't want to eat it, and she didn't want to eat it.
Zhao Huangling smiled lightly and said, "Why don't you eat?"
Ziyue raised his head and glanced at Zhao Huangling, seeing the playfulness in his eyes, he was taken aback, and suddenly became a little annoyed, he took a bite of the chicken leg to vent his anger.
Seeing this, Zhao Huangling clenched his fist and put it on his lips and coughed twice, to hide his smile, and said with concern: "Aifei is just a matter of growing her body, she should eat more, besides..." He paused, Eyes aimed at Zi Yueping's flat belly: "I can't starve my son!"
The few words were full of smiles, and there was that playful look in his eyes, Zi Yue bit the drumstick, wishing he could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.
Because Ziyue is pregnant, it is reasonable to not stay overnight, and Zhao Huangling originally planned to come and see, but never thought of staying overnight, so he happily left after dinner.On the contrary, he left Ziyue's thoughts of being depressed there, and it's fine to be treated as a joke, and the meal was so overwhelming, it's really annoying!
After a while, she felt that this was fine, the emperor didn't annoy her, and he found something interesting in her, so she could be counted as cleansing herself from the emperor. As for the superior, take your time.Now that you have a child, even though there is a smart world, you still have to be careful not to be too eager for quick success.
In the evening, Ziyue happily entered the smart world, and bought a 'Phantom', which was just like the name, and it was just able to cover up that she was exchanging some of the rewards from the Queen Mother.At that moment, she exchanged the things left in the box and handed them over to 001 for auction.
Ziyue's life didn't change much after she became pregnant. The Empress Dowager was considerate of her, forbidding her to ask for peace, and ordered people not to disturb her at Jichang Garden.Interested people wanted to visit, but because of the Queen Mother's order, they didn't dare. Besides, Jichang Garden is also close to the Queen Mother's Kangshou Palace, so no one dared to obey the Queen Mother.
When I am free, I go outside to bask in the sun to replenish calcium when there is sunshine. After dinner, I take a walk in the yard to digest food.On weekdays, I go to the Empress Dowager when I have free time. Now the Empress Dowager does not let her serve meals, but just chats with her. Most of the time, she tells her some things that pregnant women should pay attention to. Occasionally, she will tell a few stories about the emperor when he was a child. .
Most of the time, Ziyue was still staying in Jichang Garden. With the emperor's will, the small kitchen was built very quickly, and Ziyue also had a new start. The emperor said to study recipes, and even Madam Li had to follow. .Fortunately, Ziyue has always been in good health, and the imperial physician also said that he was very healthy, so Nanny Li let Ziyue cook with confidence.
The emperor hadn't been to Jichang Garden since that night, probably because he had never stepped into the harem. Hearing Madam Li mention it, it seemed that something happened in the previous dynasty.
In a blink of an eye, Ziyue's stomach was three months old, and the Empress Dowager Shengci, who never cared about things in the palace, suddenly issued an order to summon Ziyue.
After receiving this decree, Ziyue panicked immediately. The former emperor's original concubine, the current empress dowager, had been in the palace for more than half a year, but she had never seen her face to face, and she was even more confused about the empress dowager's temperament.When she was in Kangshou Palace before, she heard by chance that the empress dowagers of the two palaces had a good relationship on the surface, but they were not.The nanny didn't talk too much about such spicy things in the palace, and she didn't dare to ask nonsense.
Nanny Li naturally knew the inside story, so she didn't say much, she just comforted her son and said: "Master, you can relax, the empress dowager is kind, if you want to see your master, you probably want to see this unborn little prince."
With Mother Li's comfort, Zi Yue's mentality improved a lot. She was mainly afraid...now that everyone in the palace knew that the Empress Dowager was protecting her.After all, in terms of blood relationship, the child in her womb has nothing to do with that one.
After arriving at the Mingci Palace of the Empress Dowager Shengci, Ziyue also met another great empress who was in the palace without seeing her head and tail.Because it was the first time they met, Ziyue knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times to salute her. The Empress Dowager Shengci didn't make things difficult for her, and she was given a seat after she woke up.
The empress looked grand and dignified, she thought she had been sick for a long time, her complexion was not good, and her eyes also showed a trace of fatigue and sickness, when she saw Zi Yue, she said in a soft voice: "Today I heard that the empress summoned Ning Guiren, it is rare for me to step out of the palace gate, I didn't congratulate Ning Guiren either, so I came to add my congratulations today."
Ziyue put on a reserved look, thanked her with a subtle smile, and posted a few words to let the queen take care of herself.
Immediately afterwards, the queen asked a few more questions about the pregnancy, and Ziyue took care of them one by one.She also didn't understand in her heart, the empress dowager was summoned by the empress dowager, why was it the empress who was asking questions?
It wasn't until the queen's face was full of fatigue that Ziyue was about to leave. Before leaving, the Empress Dowager Shengci called out two nuns, saying that they would serve Ziyue.
Ziyue was shocked, and his expression was a little stiff. After he calmed down, he immediately knelt on the ground and said softly: "I hope the empress dowager forgive me! It was originally given by the elders, and I can't refuse it. The concubine's status is low, and I have already received the pity of the empress dowager." , gave Li Nanny to follow around, and then gave a Zhang Nanny. Now accepting the gift from the Holy Empress Dowager, the concubines are terrified. The empress is in command of the harem, her appearance and bearing are a model of the harem, and the rules of the harem are strict The courtiers and concubines also know that they abide by the palace rules, and dare not go overboard!"
The Empress Dowager Shengci lost face immediately, but she didn't show it. She has already listed the reasons why she can't ask for someone. It is true that a noble person is pregnant, and it is true that she does not need four nuns. Everyone else in the palace didn't think much of it, especially the emperor.
Immediately afterwards, Ziyue kowtowed again and said: "The concubine has wasted the empress dowager's caring heart, please forgive me the empress dowager."
The sound of the head knocking on the ground was real, the queen was startled, and ordered someone to help him up quickly, if something happened to this man in Mingci Palace, he would not be able to tell with a hundred mouths.
Empress Cai only felt that Ning Gui had a certain amount of advance and retreat, and she didn't seem to be born as a court lady at all, but now that she came out, she had to look up to Ning Gui, who was born as a court lady.
Seeing nobleman Ning standing up gracefully, with red and swollen forehead, the queen also smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Ning is a man with a body now, so remember to put your body first. The queen mother only cares about you, so don't be afraid."
At this time, Empress Dowager Shengci also came to her senses: "Okay, you have no blessings to enjoy, and Aijia doesn't force you. Aijia sees that the Empress likes you very much, and you will go to Fengqi Palace to pay her respects to the Empress more often in the future. "
Ziyue bowed his knees to thank him, Li Nanny at the side said calmly that it was time for Mrs. Ning Gui to drink the medicine, the Empress Dowager Shengci and the Empress said a few words of comfort before letting Ziyue go.
When he came out of Mingci Palace, Ziyue was already dripping with cold sweat, and the clothes on his back were completely soaked.
Yu Fu supported her, and asked nervously: "Master, will this servant go and get you an imperial physician?"
Nanny Li stopped her, and said: "You are younger and stronger than my old lady. You help the master back to the palace, and I will invite the imperial physician."
Ziyue knew that Nanny Li was going to report today's matter to the Queen Mother in Kangshou Palace, and she did not stop her. With her current status, she can resist once, but it does not mean that she can pass the test safely every time. here.Thinking, she touched her stomach, there are birth control pills, the child should be fine.
Seeing this, Yufu said softly: "Master is usually healthy, so little master must be fine."
Ziyue nodded and did not make another sound.
After returning to Jichang Garden, Ziyue changed clothes under the service of Yufu, and lay limp on the bed, only then did he have time to think about what the Empress Dowager Shengci and the empress were doing today.The queen is the niece of the Empress Dowager Shengci. After the prince under her name died of illness, she has been in poor health. Not to mention no favours, she doesn't even have royal power.Could it be that Empress Dowager Shengci and the Empress are trying to find a puppet?This possibility exists, but there is a bigger possibility that she doesn't want to think about.
After all, her status is too low, and when she has a child, other than plotting, there are also people who are covetous!
Falling asleep and entering the smart world, Ziyue confides to 001 the boredom in her heart. Although Nanny Li and Yufu can tell them what is in their hearts, they must be constant, not everything can be said casually.
At the end, Zi Yue said with emotion as if complaining: "I really don't know if it's good luck or bad luck that this lucky stone came here."
The number 001 will not comfort people. It is still the same sentence: "You have to believe in the fortune stone. As far as I know now, the fortune stone has not undergone a qualitative change, and everything is good."
Ziyue smiled and leaned against 001: "I'm just complaining, not questioning the fortune stone. Now things are like this, I have long accepted the series of reactions caused by the fortune stone. It's just that when something happened today, I I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. Originally, I thought to wait until the emperor likes it first, then I will have a certain status and then have a child, but now because all the fortune stones have been reversed, I can’t raise my own child after giving birth, so I feel uncomfortable.”
Number 001 understood her words and nodded: "The world is impermanent, you have to get used to it."
Thinking of the ultimate consequences of the Lucky Stone, he opened his mouth, but still didn't say anything, he didn't understand feelings, he didn't know what words to use to comfort Ziyue, and there were some things he couldn't reveal, so it was best to be concise.
Ziyue took a deep breath, smiled and said, "Thank you, 001, thank you for always being with me!"
Number 001 blinked: "I am your butler."
Just as she was about to say a few more words to 001, Ziyue heard someone calling her again. After glancing at 001, Ziyue exited the smart world, acting as if she had just woken up from exhaustion.
Nanny Li stood at the end of the bed and said with an apologetic smile: "The old slave thinks that the master is quite tired today, for the sake of the little master, the master is still asking the imperial doctor to take a pulse before resting?"
Ziyue rubbed her forehead and nodded, Yufu put down the gauze bed curtain, and then Ziyue heard footsteps, faintly saw an imperial doctor come in to take her pulse.
After checking the pulse, the imperial doctor just said that there is no serious problem, so that the mood should not fluctuate too much, and it is enough to have a good life.
Ziyue was not in a hurry to let the imperial physician leave, and said leisurely: "I have a good appetite recently, I have eaten a lot of snacks and meals, and I am afraid of food accumulation, what can the imperial physician diagnose?"
The imperial doctor was startled, and his face froze: "Don't worry, nobleman, your body is fine, it's just that the medicine is three-point poisonous, I will write down some medicinal diets to help digestion later, and it can be used as a meal on weekdays." .”
After Ziyue nodded, he asked Yufu to send the imperial physician out.
After seeing off the imperial doctor, Yufu and Nanny Li rolled up the bed curtain, and Nanny Li took out a light green bottle, which was small and exquisite in appearance, and the color was light and elegant, it was very beautiful.
After Mammy Li opened it, there was a faint fragrance: "The queen mother knew that the master's forehead was injured, so she specially rewarded it to the master. This thing is precious, and it will never leave scars after wiping it. Can I wipe it for you?"
Zi said he nodded and agreed.She had already transformed the Refuge Pill into a silver ring and put it on her left index finger, with faint lines engraved on it, which looked very nice when viewed up close. The silver ring did not sound an alarm, which meant that it was harmless to her.
After applying the medicine, Zi Yue half-opened his eyes and forced a smile and said, "Ma'am, go to Kangshou Palace for me, so that the Empress Dowager can feel at ease."
Nanny Li was able to take out the ointment in such a timely manner, which showed that she would not hide anything from her. Although she played an important role in this matter, she only had to rely on the Queen Mother.It's just that just a while ago, I'm afraid Nanny Li couldn't explain clearly.
She responded with a smile, and waited for Ziyue to fall asleep before Nanny Li and Yufu left the dormitory.
After Li Nanny arrived at Kangshou Palace, the Empress Dowager retreated to the left and right, leaving only her confidantes, and Li Nanny told the details of today's Mingci Palace in detail.
The empress dowager's heart sank, and she sighed heavily: "My good sister of the Ai family, she really made a good plan!" The last few words almost popped out between her teeth, one can imagine how angry the empress dowager was.
Nurse Ming at the side hurriedly stepped forward to caress the Queen Mother's back, and said: "Queen Mother, please calm down. Fortunately, Mrs. Ning Gui is a smart person, but she suffered some physical pain while pregnant. It's really pitiful."
The Queen Mother just thought of it, and asked Madam Li: "Can the imperial doctor go see it? What should I say?"
Nanny Li said: "It's just that I was frightened, and I told you not to get too emotional, it's not a serious problem." Sighing slightly, she said: "Master Ning's body is usually fine, if it's that weak person, it's not a big deal." I was scared out of my wits.”
The Empress Dowager nodded appreciatively: "She has never disappointed Ai's family, Ai's family rewarded me with something, and I will take them back with me later." After a pause, the Empress Dowager asked solemnly: "You came out like this, are you covering it up? "
Nanny Li paused, and hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother doesn't need to worry. Master Ning thought that she had hired an imperial doctor, and he must not hide it from the Queen Mother, so he ordered the servants to come here so that Tai Hao can rest assured."
The Queen Mother nodded reassuringly: "Go back and take good care of her. Don't make any mistakes. Just come and tell Ai's family if there is anything missing."
Nanny Li smiled and nodded yes, and said something like Ning Guiren's good fortune.
Nanny Ming also said at the right time: "Mr. Ning Gui is used to making people feel at ease, and it is not in vain for the Queen Mother to favor her."
The queen mother smiled and didn't speak any more, but her expression could clearly see that she agreed with Nanny Ming's words.
After the imperial physician left Jichang Garden, everyone in the palace knew that Mrs. Ning Gui invited the imperial physician as soon as she came out of Mingci Palace, but when they heard that the imperial physician was hired because of accumulated food, everyone didn't take it seriously.Because Ning Guiren can eat after pregnancy, everyone in the palace knows this, and they all wondered if something happened in Mingci Palace at first.But this incident also became a joke in the palace.
The imperial doctor who diagnosed Ning Guiren had just returned to the imperial hospital, and was told several times by others. Before leaving, Ning Guiren's inexplicable words shocked him, and thinking that Ning Guiren had been to Mingci Palace, he was even more displeased. Those who dare to tell the truth, those who follow the vines and climb the poles, will tell others that Ning Gui just ate too much and accumulated food.As for the pulse case, he didn't prescribe a prescription for Ning Guiren. Of course, he wrote about accumulated food, and he also attached a few medicinal meals.
The Queen Mother knew the truth, and after learning of the rumor, she admired Zi Yue even more.It's just that there is also a hidden worry in her heart. If she can't catch such a person, it will be a disaster!Thinking of what Nanny Li said, she wasn't very worried about this hidden danger. The day was for her, so she didn't have to worry.
The first thing Zhao Huangling heard was the imperial physician's words, and he couldn't help laughing that Ning Gui could really eat it, and he was so precious that he invited the imperial physician.At the same time, he also missed the atmosphere of the dinner together that night. In the past few days, he was busy with government affairs and never stepped into the harem.After hearing this interesting story, he immediately rewarded a lot of things to Jichang Garden, but after Yufu's report made him silent for a while, he added some things to reward, and refreshed his impression of Ning Guiren in his heart.
Perhaps the queen mother is right, he shouldn't look at Ning Guiren with colored eyes, this woman, as far as he knows these few times, does have a lot of merit.With a slight smile, he immediately promoted Ning Guiren to Ning Ronghua.Of course, the reason is sufficient, and the birth of the emperor's heir is meritorious.
The queen mother was naturally happy with the emperor's move, Ziyue was also happy when she was promoted and had gold and silver in her account.She thought about why the emperor had a convulsion to give her a promotion. It must be because of today's incident, she started conspiracy theory. Could it be that the emperor dislikes the Holy Empress Dowager very much?So today she rejected Empress Dowager Shengci, the emperor thought she was quite sensible, so he was happy and gave her the position?She couldn't figure out the reason, and she didn't think about it anymore. A promotion is always a good thing.
But except for these two people who were happy, the other concubines were not very happy.Oh, of course there is one exception, the imperial concubine is getting more and more interested in watching the theater.Except for Ning Ronghua, who came out halfway through the sky, and her long-awaited draft has quietly kicked off!
Ziyue is somewhat interested in the talent show. She must be excited to watch such a selection of beauties with her own eyes. She has read so many novels, and now the scene is reappearing, she is really moved.It's just that her status and current physical condition don't allow her to watch it live.
After the start of the draft, the most popular thing is which show girl is outstanding in appearance, which show girl is graceful, which show girl is multi-talented and so on.Ziyue can only follow the gossip to live a dry addiction, and can't do anything.
Ziyue is not just gossip, these people are all potential enemies, isn't there a saying that is good, knowing yourself and your enemy is the only way to win a hundred battles?Moreover, in this draft, there are some people with high family backgrounds, and I am afraid that if they enter the palace, they will have to be higher than her.
Among this year's show girls, the one Ziyue heard the most was Lin Jinghao, who was rumored to have a very beautiful appearance and a soft temperament. What's more, it was said that this girl was synonymous with everything beautiful.Ziyue also asked about Lin Jinghao's family background. Her father was a civil servant, and his official position was a bit higher than that of the concubine's father in the palace. It is a big deal to enter the palace.
Secondly, it is rumored that a woman surnamed Jiang who is in love with the emperor at the age of eighteen is still waiting for the emperor. This time the draft is not just the arrival of Baba, the age just reaches the upper limit.I heard that she is also a rare beauty, but her family background is not prominent enough.
There is another person who is particularly eye-catching, and that is a beautiful daughter of the Empress Dowager Shengci's family, she can be regarded as the Empress Dowager Shengci's niece, but the relationship may not be as close as the empress.
What's more, it's all fragmentary information, Ziyue can't show great interest, but occasionally talk to Yufu and Nanny Li when she's bored, and don't ask too much, lest they will guess whether she has something else idea.
After the ten-day primary election, there were only more than a hundred outstanding girls left. After the re-election, there were only four to fifty people left, and these people will live in the palace for a month, learning the etiquette and rules of the palace, Finally, the emperor, empress dowager, and noble concubines were selected together.
Because of the draft, all the concubines in the palace set their sights on those beautiful women. Even though Ning Ronghua is pregnant, but her background is such that she can't make any trouble.But those show girls are different, and some of the prominent family backgrounds have to be on guard in advance.
After the turbulent primary election and re-election, the palace seemed to have calmed down, and Ziri had no motivation to gossip every day, and her belly had been more than four months old, and it was round and pregnant.Ziyue prepared the prenatal education books early on, and would operate according to the books every day.
Nanny Li has seen pregnant women, but she has never seen such a troublesome one. She didn't put her heart back until the imperial doctor came to check the pulse and said that there was nothing wrong and the baby was healthy.
Yufu has never given birth before, and has never seen a pregnant woman before, so he feels novelty about what Ziyue said, and walks around Ziyue happily every day, watching Li Nanny always shaking her head speechlessly, these two people really live more and more gone back.
There are too many people in the palace, although those beautiful girls can't walk around at will, but the queen mother still told Ziyue to stay in Jichang garden more in the near future, and come to Kangshou palace when bored, so as not to be caught by some blind people when walking outside. Got bumped.
Of course Ziyue agreed, and he also knew who the empress dowager was talking about. The distant niece of the Empress Dowager Shengci was probably used by the family, or because of her own family background, she was unruly and self-willed after entering the palace, although she was rarely seen in front of others. She behaves well and knows how to cover up, but some things will still reach the ears of the Queen Mother.After all, this Xu Tianjiao is the opponent's niece, whether they are close or not, it is an indisputable fact that they are of the same clan, and it is necessary to take more precautions.
The Queen Mother will basically not interfere with the kind of woman the emperor chooses, as long as those women do not touch her bottom line, she will not care.Of course, after many years in the palace, she has never seen any methods, so she naturally doesn't have much affection for these women.
Ziyue was considered an accident in the eyes of the Queen Mother, but it was not.Ziyue is her favorite court lady, the woman who became a son by chance, every word and deed of the canonized posthumous Ziyue is under her nose, she appreciates Ziyue's knowledge of current affairs, and also likes her never-ending heart Change of heart.In her heart, Ziyue was different from the daughters of those courtiers.
No matter whether Xiu girls come from a prominent or humble family background, they are all tools sent to the palace by their families to gain power. From the starting point, Zi Yue's pure wealth is even better.In terms of eyesight, the queen mother doesn't understand those beautiful girls with beautiful skins. Even if she understands, she will become rotten after entering the palace.And she has long been used to being served by Ziyue, and now Ziyue is surrounded by her people, so she is absolutely at ease.
The emperor owns the Sangong and Six Courtyards, and the queen mother cannot choose a woman she likes to be his son's wife, because the queen must have a prominent family background and be a great help to the emperor's government, but she can choose one she likes to comfort her as a mother's heart.Undoubtedly, Ziyue is a good candidate. Her family background is not what she is looking for, but her character.
