Concubine Mi in the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 101

Because of the previous speculation, Wang Miheng tossed and turned all night and did not know when he fell asleep. It is conceivable that when he woke up early the next morning, there were bruises around his eyelids, and Qiumei looked at her. There was worry in his eyes, he hesitated to say something but swallowed it several times.

After repeating it several times, Wang Miheng still couldn't hold back and looked over.

"What's the matter, hesitating?"

Qiumei was silent for a moment, then said cautiously: "The master wants to open up about what happened last night."

Wang Miheng blinked, and asked half-truthfully, "Why don't I remember, what happened last night?"

Seeing the playfulness in her eyes, Qiumei choked for a moment.

The master really doesn't care that the emperor stays in Chengqian Palace, but why does it look like she hasn't slept well all night, Qiumei feels that her brain is not enough.

Seeing her expression, Wang Miheng smiled, and said softly: "In a while, you go to the Imperial Hospital and ask Imperial Doctor Zhou to come over."

As soon as Wang Miheng finished speaking, Qiumei asked worriedly: "Master, what's wrong with you, maybe you have a cold?"

Listening to her words, Wang Miheng was speechless for a while, does she look sick?

Wang Miheng glanced at her displeasedly, leaned into her ear and whispered something, Qiumei immediately froze there, and it took a long time to come back to her senses.

"Master, you mean..." Qiumei opened her eyes wide with joy, she walked up to help Wang Miheng to sit on the soft couch.

"Master, do you have any discomfort?"

Wang Miheng smiled and said: "No, besides, the imperial physician hasn't checked the pulse yet, maybe he hasn't."

Qiumei glanced at her, and said angrily, "Why not? The master must have a little elder brother again."

The corner of Wang Miheng's mouth twitched, little elder brother, little elder brother, everyone in this palace has a soft spot for these three words.

Seeing her finish the whole bowl of white fungus porridge, Qiumei asked for a while before calling the imperial physician.

Looking at her back, Wang Miheng couldn't help but laugh, is she that ignorant?This girl really has the demeanor of a big patriarch when she is stubborn.

Wang Miheng picked up a book from the table and read it. It was densely covered in Manchu, and she couldn't understand a single word.But Kangxi said that she would rather read some useful books than reading those landscape travel notes, and asked Li Dequan to bring them for her.But even though she was thinking about it, she didn't expect that the useful book Kangxi said would be in Manchu!
Looking at the manchu script in the book, which was twisted like little bugs, Wang Miheng deeply felt that he did not have this type of talent.What's more, she didn't use foreign languages ​​in her previous life, and she couldn't use them in this life, right?

Thinking of this, Wang Miheng sighed, and put the book in his hand on the table: Forget it, Kangxi didn't say that she must learn it, so she won't blame herself!

Not long after, Qiumei led Doctor Zhou in, and Wang Miheng immediately sat down upright.

"My minister pays my respects to my mother." Tai doctor Zhou was wearing a blue official uniform, holding a medicine box in his hand, kneeling respectfully on the ground to pay his respects.

"Get up, the imperial doctor doesn't need to be polite." Wang Miheng raised her hand slightly, seeing the man who was enough to be her father kneeling at her feet, she was really uncomfortable.Fortunately, after being in the palace for so long, those uneasiness gradually faded away.Speaking of which, she has become a concubine to a man who is 16 years older than herself, so what else can she not accept.

Physician Zhou responded, stood up, and asked respectfully.

"May I ask if there is any discomfort in your body?"

Sitting on the soft couch, Wang Miheng said softly, "I don't feel any discomfort, it's just that I've been sleepy for the past few days and my appetite isn't great."

As soon as Wang Miheng finished speaking, he saw Qiumei who was standing below cast a rather speechless look.Well, she is neither sleepy nor has a good appetite, it's just that the monthly letter is delayed.

Forgive her, this kind of private matter is really hard to say to a man who is enough to be her father, even if this man is an imperial physician.

She also felt that she was being a little hypocritical. In fact, the ancients were not shy about talking about this kind of thing. Compared with her later generations, she was much calmer.

Hearing what she said, Imperial Physician Zhou bowed respectfully: "Rong Weichen felt the pulse for the empress."

Wang Miheng nodded, and Imperial Physician Zhou walked over slowly, while Qiumei took out a handkerchief and covered her wrist.

Although this is not the first time he has experienced it, Wang Miheng still feels that the ancients' defense between men and women is too strict. Can you really feel the pulse clearly in this way?
Doctor Zhou put his finger on Wang Miheng's wrist, and took the pulse carefully. After taking the pulse, he thought for a moment, then suddenly stepped back and knelt down.

Wang Miheng was taken aback by his actions, wondering if there was something wrong with him because he was not pregnant.

Fortunately, at the next moment, she heard Zhou Taiyi's loud voice: "My minister congratulates the empress, the empress is already a month pregnant."

As soon as his words came out, Wang Miheng didn't show much joy, but Qiumei grinned her whole mouth.If it wasn't for Dr. Zhou's presence, he would have cried out with joy.

Wang Miheng had a joyful expression on his face: "Thank you, the imperial physician, please keep this matter a secret for the palace." She didn't want to make it known to everyone all at once, if she stole the limelight from Chengqian Palace, then the loss outweighed the gain.

Hearing her words, Imperial Physician Zhou was taken aback for a moment, and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, don't worry."

When he came out of the Qixiang Palace, Imperial Physician Zhou couldn't help but turned his head to look at the large gold-plated plaque in the Qixiang Palace, and thought to himself, this concubine is really lucky.

The little elder brother and the little princess are only one year old now, and they are happy again.

No wonder people in the palace said how the emperor doted on this empress, now he really understood.

After Imperial Physician Zhou left, Qiu Mei smiled and said, "My servant congratulates the empress, and the empress should hurry up and tell the emperor about this happy event."

Wang Miheng gently stroked his lower abdomen, but shook his head and said: "How can I steal the limelight from the imperial concubine? Let's talk to the emperor in a few days."

After realizing what Wang Miheng meant, Qiumei nodded, and said: "Young lady is more thoughtful, the imperial concubine is now in favor, if the lady steals her limelight, life will be difficult in the future."

Without saying a word, she smiled and continued: "However, I feel that the emperor will not neglect the empress even if he spoils the imperial concubine. The empress can rest assured." Qiumei's tone was full of certainty. , and a faint trace of rejoicing.

Wang Miheng secretly sighed in his heart, this is probably the most normal way of thinking for women in this era.As long as that man can still remember you when he dotes on other women, it can be called favor or love.Or to them, the words pet and love are no different, because they have never heard a sentence: love is a matter between two people, and there is no room for the existence of a third person.

Wang Miheng smiled, and didn't say yes or no, anyway, she took care of her own heart and never had the idea of ​​not changing.There is only favor but no love in this harem, and it is his own good luck to get Kangxi's favor.

As a concubine, no matter what, you have to have this kind of consciousness, otherwise you will find it hard to find yourself.

Taking Kangxi's stay in Chengqian Palace last night as an example, she really didn't think it was a big deal, anyway, he was the emperor, and there were so many women in the harem that it was his freedom to sleep.After being in the palace for such a long time, if she can't even accept this, then how fragile she must be.

She had always told herself this way, after Kangxi had slept with other women, he would have to take a bath, and it would be meaningless if he really paid attention to those in the harem.

Well, it doesn't seem to be entirely correct to say that, anyway, the general meaning is the same.

At noon, a message came from Qianqing Palace, saying that it was almost the imperial concubine's birthday, and the emperor ordered the House of Internal Affairs to handle it.

When he heard the news, Wang Miheng just hummed, raised his head and asked, "When is the imperial concubine's birthday?"

"On the fifth day of November, it will be half a month away."

Wang Miheng thought for a while and ordered: "See if there is anything you can give away, get ready first."

"Yes." Qiumei nodded again and again, and said: "The imperial concubine has just returned to favor, and the emperor has to put on a show. I have never seen the emperor value this much before."

Hearing the meaning of her words, Wang Miheng could only laugh and said: "Okay, the alarm has nothing to do with us, after all, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will handle it."

She didn't know, there was envy, jealousy and hatred written on her face, and it had nothing to do with her, but she had to give an expensive gift.

Regardless of her young age, she still understands these ways of the world, after all, she has lived two lifetimes, right?
Looking at her expression, Qiumei finally felt relieved. She heard that when she was outside, the news had reached Zhongcui Palace, and afterward, Mrs. Yugui invited the imperial physician.

Thinking about it, I knew I was angry.

Thinking of this, Qiumei felt again, why is her mother so easy to serve?
Ever since she found out that her master was pregnant again, Qiumei seemed like she had been injected with chicken blood, and she was extraordinarily energetic in everything. After this day, Wang Miheng was exhausted for her.

No, it wasn't long after dinner, and I went to the kitchen to cook a bowl of bird's nest porridge. It was called for the sake of the little elder brother in my belly, and I really treated her like some kind of animal!

Wang Miheng took the bird's nest she handed over, picked up the spoon and stirred it constantly.In my previous life, I thought bird's nest was something only rich people could eat, but here I see it every day, and I can't even eat it if I don't want to.

Just as he was thinking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the hall, and then Qiulan walked in leading a young eunuch.

"Qi empress, the emperor is on his way to Qixiang Palace, empress, hurry up and get ready."

Wang Miheng was stunned when he heard this, but Qiumei looked at her with joy, she just said, even if the emperor dotes on the imperial concubine, he will not neglect his master.
