Chapter 52

Ziyue has been in the palace for so long, and she really hasn't experienced many verbal battles between concubines. Seeing what Concubine Xu said, she said indifferently: "Timid? Did I say anything scary just now?" Nanny Li glanced at her again, her eyes full of doubts.

Mother Li blessed Fushen with understanding, and said with a smile: "Master Liu has only been in the palace for a short time, and the empress kindly taught Master Liu how to survive in the womb, how can there be scary words."

Liu Liangren knew about Nanny Li's background, and when he heard the words, his face was ugly, and he lowered his head slightly, not daring to refute.

Concubine Xu is not afraid of an old slave. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Wang Chongyuan walking up to the maid who was holding the eldest prince, and said casually: "Since Liu Liang is timid, he can be frightened by just saying a few words." Well, it’s better to go out less in the future. Concubine Xu and sister Liu Liangren are very affectionate and help her train her courage, even if she makes a fool of herself, it won’t be too embarrassing.” Touching the little hand of the eldest prince, she immediately said to Zi Said: "Sister Ning, the sun is hot here, let's sit in the gazebo over there, it is our fault for warming up the First Prince."

Concubine Xu frowned, clenched her fists, and felt unwilling. Both Ning Zhaoyuan and Wang Chongyuan were in the position of nine concubines, but she was just a concubine. Besides, Ning Zhaoyuan was favored by the emperor, and now Jiang Cainu died of her With the support of the Queen Mother, she is not something she can easily contradict.After calming down for a while, Concubine Xu just gritted her teeth and stopped talking.One day, she will return all the humiliation to them a hundredfold!

Liu Liang's status is even lower, and she was just jealous and she felt that she had bargaining chips. Now that she was awakened by Wang Chongyuan's words, she dared not provoke Ning Zhaoyuan again.

Although Ziyue didn't know why Wang Chongyuan spoke for her, but she was showing kindness, there was no need to keep a cold face, but seeing Wang Chongyuan touching An An's little hand just now, she felt a little bit of her son being molested, not too warm He replied: "Sisters, if anyone wants to go, let's go together."

In the end, Lan Xiuyi, Xu Pin, and Liu Liangren all went back first, and the others followed Zi Yue to the gazebo by the lake.

In summer, the sun is shining and the willows are blowing in the wind. Despite the hot weather, the scenery is still unique.Ziyue couldn't feel the heat, she walked leisurely, very comfortable, the sun shone on her body, and she even felt a warmth.

Li Ronghua hadn't dared to speak just now, but at this time, seeing that there were fewer people, he came up to talk to Ziyue and said, "Sister Ning, if you don't apply makeup on such a hot day, you still have a delicate fragrance, and you haven't seen a drop of sweat. Could it be that sister has researched A wonderful recipe? It’s hot and sweaty, it’s not like a concubine dares to go out without putting on several layers of powder.”

"If there is such a good method, Sister Ning will definitely treasure it, and Sister Li will continue to put on powder in the future." Song Jieyu's smile froze slightly, and she coldly looked at Ning Zhaoyuan's face and licked her face. Li Ronghua sneered in his heart: Ning Zhaoyuan has nothing to curry favor with, but she is a maidservant from a humble background, but she was lucky enough to give birth to a son and she is what she is today. Without the eldest prince, Ning Zhaoyuan is nothing!

Wang Chongyuan smiled warmly, and said: "Women want to please themselves, and putting on makeup and powder is also a serious matter. Sister Ning doesn't like these, that's because she has the eldest prince." The corners of her eyes slanted, and she glanced at the two people next to her, and said with a smile : "When the two sisters have children in the future, they will naturally be the same as Sister Ning."

Song Jieyu and Li Ronghua's complexion changed completely, children, none of them want to have children, the number of times the emperor went to them was pitifully rare, and it happened that they were not up to date, and they had never been pregnant.

Today's Wang Chongyuan is a little aggressive, not like the invisible person in the past, and every word is helping Ning Zhaoyuan, Song Jieyu and Li Ronghua couldn't help frowning.The two suddenly looked at each other tacitly, their mouths moved, they didn't say anything, they just responded obediently, "That's natural".

Ziyue and Wang Chongyuan were already one or two levels above Song Jieyu and Li Ronghua, and Li Ronghua wanted to curry favor with Ziyue, but Ziyue didn't show her a straight face, the two couldn't stay any longer, and they all said they had other reasons to leave beforehand.

In the end, only Ziyue and Wang Chongyuan arrived at the gazebo.Before the two of them entered the gazebo, someone from the palace had already set up all the melons, fruits and refreshments. After Zi Yue sat down, his mouth was really dry. After taking a sip of tea, he said to Madam Li: "Mama and the eldest prince Go and play under the shade of the tree over there, and watch out for mosquitoes." Zi Yue pointed to an open space in front of the gazebo, which she could just see when she was sitting, and An An would not leave her sight.

After Nanny Li took the order to leave, Ziyue was only surrounded by Yufu. Wang Chongyuan looked at Yuxue's lovely eldest prince, and smiled enviously: "The eldest prince is carved with jade, smart and cute. Blessed."

Ziyue has been staring at An'an all the time, without looking away, he smiled and said: "Raising children is hard work, it's not a worry-free job, but watching the eldest prince grow up day by day, there are new changes every day, other Nothing in my heart is important anymore, I only have happiness and joy in my heart.”

Wang Chongyuan was taken aback when she heard the words, she was also at the age to have a child, but she hadn't conceived in these years, so she didn't think about it.Ever since she realized that she was a soy saucer when she crossed over, her mentality has gradually changed. She heard Jiang Cainu's last madness described by Li Ronghua, and it was very similar to her in the past.

At that time, she thought that she was the heroine, and she must have the halo of the heroine. As long as she hooked her fingers, the emperor would surround her. All the good luck belonged to her. In fantasy, she was also crazy at that time.Express disdain for everyone, she is the heroine, there is no need to take the initiative to treat others well.

But after Ning Zhaoyuan appeared, all of this changed greatly. It was obvious that Ning Zhaoyuan was more like a heroine than her. Later, the emperor gradually became indifferent to her, and her family background and status made her not like the heroine. The kind of important female supporting role.

After knowing that she was a soy saucer, she was lost for several days. She traveled all over the world just to be an unknown concubine, and spent her whole life? !In fact, she doesn't have much love for the emperor. The emperor is very gentle and good-looking, but for some reason, she hasn't fallen in love with the emperor all these years.

Suddenly, she thought of that person, the person she met for the first time in this world, perhaps, she had made a wrong decision when she chose to enter the palace.If at that time, she had not dreamed of being a heroine, and had been with him instead of marrying the emperor at that time, would her fate have been different?

It should be. At that time, he was so kind to her, they talked about everything, and got along very happily. It's just that it's over, everything is over.There is no turning back when she opens her bow. She is now the emperor's concubine and will never see him again.I don't know if he still remembers her, a poor woman...

Ziyue noticed that Wang Chongyuan hadn't answered the words, turned his head to glance at her, and was startled suddenly.What is Wang Chongyuan thinking, her eyes... so complicated?Regret, nostalgia, and some emotions that she couldn't see clearly.Frowning, Ziyue had an illusion, she felt that Wang Chongyuan's mood at the moment seemed to be a lovelorn, saying goodbye to the one she loved.

Wait, they talked about their children just now, and then Wang Chongyuan expressed his feelings. According to how favored Wang Chongyuan is when he is idle, and her few observations, Wang Chongyuan didn't have a deep feeling for the emperor. That kind of love, so now it can only be other people who can infect Wang Chongyuan to express this kind of emotion.

Tsk, did Wang Chongyuan have a love brother before entering the palace?According to the plot probability of reading novels before, the probability of this is very high. Every woman will have a supporting actor in her life. In Wang Chongyuan's world, it is commonly known as the affectionate second actor.She almost forgot that Wang Chongyuan is a time-traveling woman, and with the modern concept of free love, this possibility is even greater.

However, if Wang Chongyuan really never forgets her old lover, will she cuckold the emperor?But in the harem, it is difficult to wear it, because I just don't know who Wang Chongyuan's love brother is.

Well, no matter what, it has nothing to do with her. Now it seems that this Wang Chongyuan can't have a deep friendship, even on the surface.If Wang Chongyuan really cuckolded the emperor in the future, what if the emperor also suspects her when he sees that they have a good relationship (on the surface)? !This person is very suspicious in this regard, let alone a creature with such strong self-esteem as the emperor.

Thinking about it, Zi Yue moved his body away silently, away from Wang Chongyuan.Thinking that An'an had also been out for a while, he said to Yu Fu behind him: "Go and call the eldest prince back, we've been out for a while too, it's time to go back."

At this time, Wang Chongyuan was also awakened by the sudden sound. She smiled at Ziyue calmly, and said smoothly: "It's hot, children really shouldn't stay outside for too long."

Ziyue nodded and said: "Sister Wang should go back earlier, the sun will be more poisonous later, and it won't be beautiful if you suffer from heatstroke."

Wang Chongyuan nodded with a smile, feeling that she and Ning Zhaoyuan had more or less a relationship. What she did today was so obvious. Ning Zhaoyuan is a smart person. She must understand that if she wants to establish a friendship, there will be opportunities in the future.

The two of them separated in the gazebo with different thoughts.

As soon as he walked away, Yu Fu complained on behalf of his master, and said bitterly: "Concubine Xu, relying on the Holy Empress Dowager and Empress Empress, still has a bit of capital to be arrogant, who is that Liu Liang, who dares to fight against Master Crazy in front of you."

Nanny Li was not so angry, she explained to Yu Fu, "Liu Liang is somewhat beautiful, and he has a relationship with Concubine Xu, so naturally he will not deal with our master. It's just a shallow-skinned thing, Yu Fu If you take it to heart, you will praise her."

Although Yufu and Nanny Li belong to different camps, they both have good hearts and have no conflict of interest. Now the two are more and more able to get together, and they can speak directly when they have anything to say.

Zi said that he quite agreed with Li Nanny's words, nodded and smiled and said: "Li Nanny is right, Concubine Xu will not be arrogant for long, so don't be angry with them."

If she guessed right, Empress Dowager Shengci and Empress would probably fail this year, and if they fell, Concubine Xu would not have the capital to go crazy.According to Concubine Xu's arrogant temperament, she has no backer, and there are many people who taunt her.

But she was quite surprised that the Empress Dowager Shengci didn't help sharpen Xu Cong's temper. No matter what, she is the queen's successor. If she spread her teeth and claws like this, she would die very quickly.

As for Concubine Xu, whom they mentioned, she had returned to her residence at this time, and her anger was hard to calm down.Xingui still lived with her, and happened to meet the gun.

Seeing Xingui who just came back from a trip, Concubine Xu sneered and took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "Going to see your good sister again? Have you seen anyone?"

Xin Gui's complexion tightened, Xu Bin's words undoubtedly touched her heart.Sister Lin Concubine always shuts the door to thank guests these days. If she goes out, she always visits the imperial concubine. She has been shut down several times. In the palace, Lin Concubine is the focus of attention. Naturally, this small matter cannot be hidden from others .

She didn't know why Sister Lin Pin became indifferent to her suddenly, she had a bad premonition, it could be seen that Sister Lin Pin didn't meet with Sister Gong Concubine either, which dispelled some of this bad feeling.But even so, she still felt that Concubine Lin and Concubine Gong were alienating her intentionally. Thinking of this, she tugged on the handkerchief tightly.

Xingui clenched her lower lip and murmured: "Sister Linpin is getting heavy, so it is understandable not to see my concubine."

Concubine Xu's face turned cold, and when she was about to sweep the teacup off the table, there was a crackling sound, which startled Xingui, and the teacup fell to her feet, but she didn't dare to move a step, she just bit it firmly. His lower lip was pursed, and his body was trembling.

"What do you mean by what you said just now? Are you mocking me for not having a child?!" Seeing that Concubine Xu's face became more and more gloomy, the maid at the side tried to comfort her.Concubine Xu glanced at the court lady, but she calmed down a bit, but her eyes still stayed on Xingui.

Xingui raised her head slightly, her heart was shocked, Xu Pin's eyes seemed to drink her blood and eat her flesh.She also complained endlessly in her heart, Xu Concubine was unreasonable when she lost her temper, whatever she said was wrong, and it was wrong not to say anything.

Now that she has lost the help of Concubine Lin and Concubine Gong, she can only suffer silently.However, she had to find a way. Although she didn't know why Concubine Lin and Concubine Gong were so indifferent, she couldn't lose Concubine Lin's heart just because of Concubine Lin's twins.

After being tortured by Concubine Xu for a long time, Mrs. Xingui kept thinking after she returned to her residence. Concubine Xu's attitude towards her was humiliating in the same way. She never thought of making friends with Concubine Xu. how long?How long can the queen last?She wouldn't be so stupid as Liu Liangren to get on the boat of Concubine Xu.

Xingui took a mouthful. The maid brought over the tea, which was warm and comfortable to drink.Putting down the teacup, she suddenly asked: "Yiqing, why do you think Concubine Lin is so indifferent to me all of a sudden?"

Yiqing thought for a while and replied cautiously: "Master Lin's fetal image was always unstable in the palace before, but this time when he came to the palace, something like Jing Yuan happened again, it is natural to be more prepared." Seeing that Master Lin's expression did not change , Then he said again: "Master Lin is not only missing the master alone, don't be too sensitive, master."

Xin Gui was not convinced by these words, and said lightly: "If you are on guard, you should stay behind closed doors like Concubine Zhuang, so why does Concubine Lin keep going to see Concubine Gui so often?"

Yiqing was stunned: "This..." Suddenly, she immediately thought of the reason, and said, "The imperial concubine is in charge of the palace power, Master Lin asks for the protection of the imperial concubine, after all, in the palace, the imperial concubine also has great rights?"

Xingui had thought about it, and hoped it would be true.If she couldn't get the emperor's favor, she couldn't lose the help of Lin Concubine and Concubine Gong.

On the other hand, Concubine Lin, although she had approached the imperial concubine several times, the results were not very good. No matter how she tried to please her, the imperial concubine was still arrogant and indifferent, and had no intention of alliance with her at all.

On this day, Concubine Lin came out of the imperial concubine's residence. Huayu couldn't help it, and persuaded: "Master, your belly is getting bigger and bigger now, and the imperial concubine didn't give me a good face, so don't make trouble."

Concubine Lin pondered for a while, not listening at all: "Although the imperial concubine is not eager enough for me, but I have been here these days, if I give up halfway, what will the imperial concubine think of me?"

"But..." Huayu frowned as she looked at her master's surprisingly big belly, "But you also have to think about the little master in your stomach."

Concubine Lin gave her a comforting smile, and said, "Don't worry, since I haven't seen Mrs. Xin, I've gotten better. Didn't the imperial doctor say yesterday that my body is fine?"

Huayu sighed helplessly, and suggested: "This servant thinks that you should focus on the emperor now, and hug the emperor while you are pregnant. Even the noble concubine has to think highly of us."

It's not that Concubine Lin has never thought about this question, but since she became pregnant, the emperor still seldom comes to her place, and even if he does come, he only asks about the child and her body, and doesn't stop at all.In addition, she is pregnant now and cannot serve the emperor.

Concubine Gong's temperament is too optimistic, it is dispensable to the emperor, so it may backfire if Concubine Gong favors her more, maybe it will cause a gap between the two of them.Originally, she was very optimistic about Rumeiren and Xinguiren, but she would definitely not dare to use these two people now, and if they were favored, it would be herself who would suffer.

Huayu seemed to see the master's concerns, and turned to say: "The emperor's place is not good, we can also go to the queen mother's place. It is because Ning Zhaoyuan is liked by the queen mother that Ning Zhaoyuan is today. Master is better than Ning Zhaoyuan not knowing." How many times, the queen mother will definitely like the master, and the master is pregnant with twins now, even if Ning Zhaoyuan doesn't have such luck, the master will definitely be liked by the queen mother."

Seeing Huayu frequently giving her advice, Lin Bin smiled gratifiedly, leaned on her arm and said, "Perhaps you are right, the queen mother is a good place to go."

The reason why she didn't go to the queen mother and chose the second best concubine was precisely because she already had Ning Zhaoyuan Zhuyu in front of her. If she wanted to surpass, the twins in her stomach were not enough.The queen mother's love for Ning Zhaoyuan is not only the children, but also Ning Zhaoyuan.Thinking about entering the palace and hearing all the rumors about Ning Zhaoyuan, there is no doubt that she herself would not be able to do what Ning Zhaoyuan did.

As the prostitute of the Lin family, what she has learned since she was a child is how to be a good mistress, as well as the bearing and planning that a mistress should have.In Ning Zhaoyuan's eyes, it is narrow-minded in her eyes to study some things purely to win the Queen Mother's love.

Choosing a day is worse than bumping into the sun, Lin Cong thought that she would come out now anyway, so she said to Hua Yu: "Let's not go back now, let's go to the Queen Mother now, it is not far away."

Huayu was taken aback, and said worriedly: "Master, you have been out for quite a while, let's go back and rest, and go to the Empress Dowager's place tomorrow."

"Go now."

Hua Yu didn't dare to refute what Concubine Lin said, so she could only obey her orders and help her master go to the Queen Mother.

When Concubine Lin came to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was joking with An An, and Zi Yue also had a few words with the Queen Mother occasionally.When she heard that Concubine Lin asked to see her, the Queen Mother was surprised for a moment, but she soon understood.Thinking that Concubine Lin has been pregnant for more than five months now and has twins again, it must be hard work, so he hastily asked someone to bring her in.

After seeing Lin Bin's big belly, the Empress Dowager flashed a bit of blame, but she still smiled lovingly and said, "Stop saluting, look at your big belly, Mother Ming help her to sit down quickly." Waiting for Lin Bin to sit down Finally, he said again: "I know you have filial piety, but you have to take care of yourself." Then she said to Nanny Ming: "Go, Aijia remembers the prescription Ning Zhaoyuan used to drink tea when she was pregnant. It’s still there, let the small kitchen make it and bring it over.”

When Concubine Lin came in, she didn't see the scolding in the Queen Mother's eyes, and now that the Queen Mother loves her so much, she warmed up in her heart, and said with a smile: "The concubine seldom goes out after she is pregnant, and I haven't seen the Queen Mother for a long time. Originally, I wanted to come here, but I just came to the palace, and I don't know if the Queen Mother has time, so I haven't been able to ask to see the Queen Mother. Seeing that I am in good health today, I really couldn't bear it, so I thought about coming to see the Queen Mother. "

The queen mother narrowed her eyes and smiled, hugged An Anle in her arms and said, "It's good if you have a heart." As she spoke, she coaxed An An and said, "An An, do you want a younger brother or sister?"

An An heard the unfamiliar words of younger brother and sister, blinked her big eyes, and babbled: "Low and beautiful"

Ziyue didn't have the time to explore what Concubine Lin did today. After all, she just wanted to win favors. After hearing what the Queen Mother said and An An's milky voice recounted, she said with a smile: "An An is still young, so I don't know what younger brothers and sisters are now. .”

The queen mother hooked An An's small chin, wiped his saliva, and said with a smile: "An Anke is smart, she must understand what the younger brother and sister mean." Don't trust An An's bad girl, okay?"
