Youxi, the maid of space

Chapter 67 Ripples Palace

Suddenly, a court lady came in with a tray and saluted, then walked to the imperial concubine and whispered something.The imperial concubine looked down at the tray and her expression changed, she winked, and the maid immediately stood aside.

Then the imperial concubine called an imperial physician and asked him to check the contents on the tray, and when he lifted the white cloth, it was a stack of bird's nests.The imperial doctor opened it and smelled it, then asked for a cup of white water to soak it, studied it for a while, frowned, and bowed to report that the bird's nest was indeed soaked in musk, but the technique was very clever, and it was not easy to find it under normal circumstances.

The imperial concubine immediately ordered someone to investigate the origin of the bird's nest and who handled it.

Concubine Zhuang sighed and said with regret: "This Liu Liangren is too careless. If she is pregnant, she should be extra careful when eating. She didn't even find the most common things. She is really careless."

Li Ronghua paused, raised his face, and could not hide his sorrow in his tone, and said, "Concubine Zhuang, don't blame Liu Liangren, didn't the imperial physician just say that it is not easy to be discovered, this is not negligence .”

Concubine Xu chuckled, with a tinge of sarcasm, and said: "It's not easy to find out, but it's not like it won't be found out. In the final analysis, Liu Liangren didn't care about the child in his stomach."

Listening to them one by one, the imperial concubine couldn't hold back her anger, frowned, put down her teacup and said sharply: "The matter is not yet clear, Mrs. Liu Liang is still giving birth in there, so there is no place for you to gossip here. , if you don’t want to stay, everyone will go back to the palace.”

Ziyue was also a little depressed. She had to come over every time the concubines gave birth, and then listened to their sour verbal battles. She couldn't get used to this kind of thing.

Among the crowd, Concubine Xian looked slightly dazed, as if wandering away from the sky, out of her mind.It is rare for her to have such a dazed look in front of everyone. After everyone finished talking, she was still in a daze, as if she was thinking about something unspeakable.The noble concubine was not surprised, coughed lightly, and called out: "Concubine Xian, what's wrong with you?"

Concubine Xian came back to her senses after a while, her cheeks were slightly pale, she concealed her hesitation and said: "The concubine is just worried about Liu Liangren."

Concubine Gong breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed: "It's been a long time, why is there no news yet?"

Although Ziyue took the health-enhancing pills, she had been tossed and tossed for so long anyway, and it was already midnight, and she felt sleepy, so she said a little sleepily: "It takes a few hours to have a baby, and it takes a long time to give birth to a baby." It's been a few days, there is nothing wrong with the delivery room, I think Liu Liangren is still struggling to give birth."

It was rare for Concubine Gong to hear Zi Yue's comforting words, her eyes fell on her, and she said with a smile: "Well, I'm just impatient."

Concubine Xu's eyes lit up slightly, but her tone was laziness and she said: "You can't be impatient to have a baby. I think it took three days for Lin Jieyu to give birth to the second princess. Thinking about it now, it's really jaw-dropping. "

Concubine Gong was startled when she heard the words, the hatred in her eyes deepened, and she said: "The deceased is already dead, please concubine Xu speak carefully."

Xingui's eyes turned red in an instant, and he said in a low voice: "Sister Lin Jieyu has gone, she deserves to be rested in peace, the second princess is also the child of Concubine Gong, sister Concubine Xu, stop talking about the past."

Concubine Xu's eyes dimmed in an instant, and lost their brilliance in an instant, her voice could not hear any emotion, she said: "Unexpectedly, Mrs. Xin Gui's harm to Lin Jieyu is really affectionate, I just expressed my feelings just now. "After speaking, he gave a 'hum' to Xingui, with a bad look.

Immediately, Mrs. Xingui looked panic-stricken and wept softly, "I just respect my sisters."

Concubine Xu wanted to say something else, but the imperial concubine smiled rather than a smile, and said with a cold look, "Concubine Xu's spirit is really good in the middle of the night." After speaking, she was slightly sad, and said with a long sigh: "This It's really hard to know when to give birth, and Musk Bengong hasn't found it yet. Since Concubine Xu is so energetic, you can go outside later and wait at the door of the delivery room. When Liu Liangren gives birth to a baby, how can you Time to leave!"

Concubine Xu gasped, stood up and said in surprise, "Young Concubine!" In such a cold weather, asking her to stand outside would kill her, wouldn't it? !

The noble concubine smiled peacefully, with an unspeakably tired look on her face, and said softly: "Okay, Liu Liangren gave birth, and it's my best to see you, let's go." After speaking, she glanced at Concubine Xu sternly At one glance, Concubine Xu was terrified, stepped back again and again, lowered her head, and stopped talking.

Ziyue was soothed that he could finally leave. After saluting with the rest of the concubines, they started to go out one after another.

At this moment, a nanny came in hurriedly, lowered her head slightly, and said in an urgent and flustered voice: "Madam, Mrs. Liu Liang may have a difficult delivery. The imperial doctor asked whether to protect the adults or the child. Time It's urgent, and please make a decision early, Madam."

In an instant, the concubine's face was anxious and troubled, she thought for a moment, and said: "If it is really only one of them, then...the child." After finishing speaking, she asked the maid beside her to visit Weiyang Palace , Tell the emperor about this.

Liu Liangren's family doesn't have much weight, status is not high, love is more or less, now the situation is urgent, the imperial concubine can make the decision, and it will be enough for someone to report a letter to the emperor.

Those who don't like Liu Liangren can't help showing a little joy when they hear this, while those who think long-term feel sad for Liu Liangren, and can't help but think that it would be really chills down their spines.

Seeing the serious expressions of the women in the crowd, the imperial concubine's always proud face revealed a hint of sadness and disdain, and said, "Why, do you think there is something wrong with this palace's decision?"

Among the people present, no one dared to question the imperial concubine's words, and they all knew that in the harem, women were only a tool for reproduction and entertainment for the emperor, and moreover, they were factors to stabilize the family status, and they had no choice.

The noble concubine got up, and could hardly restrain her cold smile, and said: "I believe that if the emperor were here, he would make the same decision as this palace." After saying that, she hurried away with her people.

The concubines also regained their composure and went out separately. Because the imperial concubine left her own people behind, Concubine Xu did not dare to disobey her orders, so she had to go outside the delivery room and wait, her eyes staring at the door of the delivery room, revealing a hint of sinister emotion.

The cold night made Zi Day's drowsiness dissipate a lot. Just now when she heard that the imperial concubine kept the child, she felt an indescribable sadness in her heart. In this age when giving birth to a child is life-threatening, it is really sad!I don't know, I don't know if it was her who was lying in the delivery room today, would Zhao Huangling protect the child or the adult?

Her state of mind is ostrich, and she doesn't want to think about the answer to this question, she is afraid that she will be disappointed or disheartened.Slowly exhaling foul breath, she emptied her head, returned to Jichang Garden, and fell asleep.

On a winter morning, without having to greet the queen, Ziyue slept in very comfortably, even when he woke up, he didn't get up.Because it was so late last night, Nanny Li didn't nag, but An An was carried back from the queen mother and placed next to Ziyue, who played with him under the covers.

Holding the literacy cards he made, Ziyue taught An An to recognize the characters on them. After a long time of hard work, An An had already learned 80.00% of the characters. Ann.

Ziyue half leaned on the bed, An An's small body nestled in Ziyue's arms, every time Ziyue picked up a piece of wood, An An pointed to the words and pictures on it and read out, then raised her little head to look at Ziyue.If it is correct, Ziyue will give him a smile, and then continue to take another one. If it is wrong, Ziyue will kiss him on the forehead and tell him the correct pronunciation.

Just when the mother and son were entertaining and entertaining, Yufu walked in. Seeing her expression changed, Ziyue put An An aside, told him to play by himself for a while, and brought a tiger puppet to her. He then got out of bed and casually put on a cloak, walked to the chair next to him and sat down, asking, "What's wrong?"

Yufu said: "Suyaxuan just received news that Liu Liangren gave birth to a little prince. I heard that Liu Liangren is fine, but it will be more difficult to conceive in the future."

Raising his eyebrows, Zi said in his heart: This Liu Liangren is really lucky, in such an urgent situation yesterday, he was able to give birth to a child, and his body is fine.

Seeing that Yu Fu's expression was still serious after speaking, Zi Yue's heart sank, and he said in a hoarse voice, "What else is there?"

Yu Fu pursed his lips, and the corners of his mouth suddenly curved, he couldn't believe it, and said in a low voice with surprise: "The servant heard that the imperial concubine seems to have caught the murderer of Liu Liangren, and it must be the Xian concubine."

Ziyue's brows twitched, and he was silent for a long time. He said, "Concubine Xian? Does everyone in the palace know about this? Concubine Xian wants to adopt Liu Liangren's child with all her heart, so why would she do this to harm Liu Liangren?"

After listening to her doubts, Yu Fu said slowly: "The servant has someone he knows in Yilan Palace, the little sister also saw that the servant is from Jichang Garden, and the concubine Xian went to Yilan Palace, carefully I don't know what to say, at least the Concubine Xian seemed to have cried when she came out, and her expression was a little unusual."

Ziyue's expression calmed down, he reached out to flip the lid of the teacup on the table, and said with a frown, "Concubine Xian went to Yilan Palace, one is to adopt Liu Liangren's child, and the other is to have suspicions about the Liu Liangren incident. , Crying out, it doesn’t mean anything, both are possible.”

Yufu shook his head when he heard the words, and said: "The servant just said that I don't know what the concubine and the concubine said, but the bird's nest was given to Liu Liangren by the concubine Xian, and the little sister of the servant said it herself."

In Yufu's mind, his master is now the tallest among the nine concubines, and there is only a noble concubine, a virtuous concubine, and Zhuang concubine in front of him, and there is no one else.

"Let's stop this matter here. I used to stay in the imperial concubine's palace, and the rules are strict. If your little sister leaked the word to you, the imperial concubine may know about it. In the future, don't inquire if there is no need, so as not to cause trouble."

Yufu answered 'yes', blessing his body.
