Splendid concubine

Chapter 89 The Empress Dowager Returns to the Palace
Because the imperial concubine was pregnant, she ate very finely. She couldn't help smiling when she saw the surprised look of the two little girls eating at the table.

In a good mood, I drank a serving of ginseng chicken soup and a bowl of wolfberry and millet porridge.

Seeing that they couldn't pick it out by themselves, I asked the maids to serve them a bowl of bird's nest porridge.Admonish: "This is a good thing, beautifying and beautifying, you are just young, you should take good care of that face."

Drinking bird's nest again, Liu Ruyi almost burst into tears. In her previous life, she drank bird's nest and just got married. When she entered the palace to meet the empress, the empress looked down on her, the concubine of an unfavored prince, and she was still a concubine. Girl, just reward her with a bowl of bird's nest that she is eating and that's it.

She didn't live a good life after that, and she was not favored in the Seventh Prince's Mansion, and when she wanted to save money, she seldom used these things.

With these good things, I also sent them to the Seventh Prince, so I can keep them for myself.

In this life, she was reborn in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Although she also had money, she hadn't thought of such a luxury. Seeing her teary face, the imperial concubine seemed to understand her situation in the mansion. No more talking.

Mu Zitan didn't realize it at all.

After drinking the bird's nest, Liu Ruyi felt a little full, so she stopped eating.

The imperial concubine, seeing that she seemed to have something to say, ordered the servants to share the breakfast and not to waste it, and then led them to the inner room.

Said to the imperial concubine: "My lady, I think that since the emperor knows that the second prince is not his own son, he will not be able to inherit the throne sooner or later. Obviously it depends on whether the child in the mother's stomach is a boy or a girl. If it is a boy, then everything will be happy. The emperor is now at the peak of his age, and he was raised from a young age, so he just happens to inherit the throne."

The imperial concubine sighed, "Why don't I think so, the gender of this child cannot be determined."

Liu Ruyi thought about it, she vaguely thought of such an idea last night, in order to climb up, she was a little unscrupulous and shameless.

But the events of her previous life were still revolving in her mind, she couldn't care less about it anymore, besides, she treated the imperial concubine and Mu Zitan sincerely.

"My daughter has heard of a folk remedy that can make sure that the child in the pregnant woman's womb is a boy, and it won't damage the boy's intelligence. It's just that his body was a little weak a few years ago and needs to be carefully adjusted by the imperial doctor." The benefits alone , there is no harm, no one will believe it, and it will be easier for people to believe it if they say something about the harm that is acceptable.

The imperial concubine's eyes lit up immediately, "Take care carefully? I have the conditions in this Palace, and the best doctors in the world are here. Besides, didn't we get a miracle doctor last time? What do you need for your folk prescription? Go quickly Get it, if you still need money, just ask me."

Liu Ruyi pretended to be troubled, and frowned, "The medicinal materials used in this recipe are scarce, and my daughter has to go out to find them, so I will leave this matter to my daughter, and please rest assured, Madam."

The imperial concubine quickly said: "I don't worry about you, we are the mother and daughter of the direct relatives, so we laughed after we finished speaking."

Mu Zitan looked at them from the side with a blank face, only understood the mother and daughter of the first relatives, followed by a smirk, she was distracted thinking about the second prince while listening to those words, she had only a half-knowledge.

I don't know what to do, but for this lost and recovered daughter, the imperial concubine was very patient, and explained it to her carefully, Mu Zitan only half understood.

But the imperial concubine had long known that her lost and recovered daughter was a naive and ignorant little girl.

As long as the child in the womb is confirmed to be a son, he dares to declare that the second prince is not of royal blood, even if someone objects.The decision made by the emperor's humanity will also let the Mu family go.

As long as the Mu family is not completely weakened, it won't be long before they get up again. When the time comes, this little girl won't have to suffer, and she won't need to be so brainy. She lives so innocently, and it's good to have someone to protect her.

At that moment, the imperial concubine was a little worried, she pulled Mu Zitan over and told her carefully: "You are innocent and ignorant of worldly affairs, no matter where you go, even if you don't have me, you still have to listen to the second prince, listen to your sister if."

Mu Zitan heard clearly and nodded, thinking of the second prince, she lowered her head shyly and stopped talking, holding the purse at the corner of her clothes and spinning it around.

Liu Ruyi thought it was a bit funny, and said to her with a smile: "Imperial Concubine, I think the Second Prince and Zitan seem to fall in love at first sight."

After finishing the arrangements, the imperial concubine smiled and rubbed her stomach, "Isn't that good? I was worried that the two of them wouldn't be able to develop a relationship."

Hearing this, Mu Zitan was even more shy and lowered his head.

At this time, a court lady hurriedly reported: "The Empress Dowager heard that a princess and a princess were conferred in the palace, and she came back from Hantan Temple."

The face of the imperial concubine changed instantly, and Mu Zitan looked at his new mother without knowing why, "What's the matter, what's the matter with you, mother? But the younger brother in your stomach is making trouble with you, why don't you feel uncomfortable, do you want to call the imperial doctor?"

The imperial concubine slowly shook her head and said: "I'm fine, but the empress dowager has been at odds with me, I'm afraid I will make things difficult for you two when I come back."

As if grabbing a life-saving straw, the imperial concubine grabbed Liu Ruyi's hand and shook it fiercely, "You must protect the red sandalwood. I have only one daughter, and the emperor has only one daughter. If something happens to her, I will I don't want to live anymore."

The imperial concubine's expression was too sad, Liu Ruyi had no choice but to solemnly nod her head, agreeing, the imperial concubine would be better.

"I heard that the Empress Dowager brought Princess Dingguo with her." The little maid added after remembering.

Princess Dingguo?Hearing the name, it seems very impressive, but I have never heard of a Dingguo Princess.

Seeing her doubts, the noble concubine explained: "The empress dowager's natal family was originally named the Duke of Qi, and later the emperor ascended the throne, and he was also named the king of Qi. This Dingguo princess is the granddaughter of the empress dowager's natal family. above."

Hearing this, Liu Ruyi's sense of crisis intensified. The princess of Dingguo has a high status as soon as she heard it.

Hantan Temple is in the outskirts of Beijing. It is said here that the Empress Dowager is coming back, and the Empress Dowager has already brought Princess Dingguo into the palace.

The imperial concubine hurriedly took Liu Ruyi and Mu Zitan to greet her. Please settle down, kneel down, and set the rules. Liu Ruyi felt exhausted. She peeped over and saw that the queen mother was a kind-faced old lady, but she had a smile on her face. A pair of shining eyes did not seem to be a good match.

Besides, in the fight in the harem, to come here or to the queen mother, which one is easier?

The Princess Dingguo looked like a pretty girl, about the same age as herself, with a cute smile, always by the empress dowager's side.

I don't know if it's because I don't know the rules or it's intentional, but when the imperial concubine knelt down to worship the empress dowager, I sat with the empress dowager.

However, although the imperial concubine was angry in her heart, she didn't dare to say anything, but her disgust towards Princess Dingguo grew stronger in her heart.

I must be sure that Princess Guo's well-behaved appearance, every sentence can be just right, so it should be done on purpose.

The Empress Dowager drank tea for a long time without yelling. After a pot of tea, she raised her eyelids and said, "Which one is the new princess and which one is the new princess? Come out and let the Ai family have a look. "

Liu Ruyi and Mu Zitan were the only faces in this room, and it seemed that the Empress Dowager was going to give her a big blow.

Liu Ruyi had no choice but to take a step forward, "Returning to the Queen Mother, the daughter of the people is the princess of Ping'an County."

My heart has been beating drums, everything is the same as in my previous life, and I can easily deal with it, but this is the first time for the empress dowager, so I can only deal with it based on experience.

"It's also a princess, but it looks like it's far from my Dingguo. It doesn't matter if it doesn't look good, but it's still a concubine with no rules."

Princess Dingguo smiled foolishly beside the empress dowager, and when she heard what the empress dowager said, she quickly smiled and said: "Cousin, this is a compliment to me, I feel a little embarrassed."

The queen mother looked at Princess Dingguo, and said with a pleasant face: "You are the princess who was appointed by the Ai family. How can any wild girl in the country compare to it? Relax, the Ai family loves you the most. Seeing, you It's almost time to get married. Whoever you fancy, the Ai family will give you a marriage."

Princess Dingguo immediately said: "What if I like the second prince?"

Mu Zitan's face froze suddenly.

The empress dowager suddenly pointed the cannon fire at Mu Zitan, "Where did you come from, how did you fool the emperor and make her a princess?"

The imperial concubine knelt down on the ground with a plop, "It was the wrong thing my daughter-in-law did before. My daughter-in-law was originally born as a dragon and phoenix twin. She was wrongly carried by the nanny because of a little carelessness. I found it later, because I was afraid at the time, and I didn't Dare to tell the emperor and the queen mother that you can only make mistakes, no, I finally told the emperor in the past few days, and brought her back in time, seeing that my daughter is about to marry, I can't let her marry a countryman."

The empress dowager paused for a moment, and said to the imperial concubine with an unfriendly expression: "Since you know that you are at fault, you should receive the punishment, but for the sake of your pregnancy, this punishment will be temporarily exempted, it's just a reduction." It’s all about status, well, you will be Concubine Lin from now on.”

Even after being demoted as a concubine, she didn't even have a title.

But the imperial concubine knelt on the ground, not daring to say a word.

The Empress Dowager said, "Then girl, come here and let me see your face."

Mu Zitan could only take a step forward.

The Empress Dowager took a closer look and said suddenly: "A vicious face is a good thing to seduce men, you have to train it well."

Hearing this, the imperial concubine almost burst into tears.

We all know that this daughter looks like her, but the queen mother is calling her a vixen in a roundabout way.

But facing the empress dowager, no one dared to say anything.
