"Your father won't let Concubine Chun ride a horse?" Concubine Xiang, who was checking the accounts of the harem, suddenly changed her expression slightly.
Lou Yu held her chin and said, "Yes, it seems that Lady Chunfei has sprained her foot, but I see that she can walk without any problems, but her feet will be sore after standing for a long time."
Concubine Xiang was stunned for a long time.
"Concubine, what's wrong with you?" Lou Yu looked at her mother in confusion and couldn't help but wave her hand twice in front of her eyes.
Only then did Concubine Xiang come to her senses. She smiled and said, "It's okay." Then she lowered her head again and continued to check the accounts.
Looking at Concubine Xiang's pristine face and listening to the crackling sound of abacus, she suddenly felt sleepy. "Then I'll go back and rest. Concubine, please don't sleep too late." - It's not the harem accounts.
Well, do you need to check it four, five, six or seven times... Even if there is a small mistake, the father will not blame it. The mother and concubine really find things for themselves to do, so they are not bothered.
Concubine Xiang nodded and couldn't help stroking her temples, "Since your father has spoken, then don't bother Concubine Chun about riding horses and shooting arrows."
Lou Yu lowered her head and looked at the pearls on her shoes, "Mother Concubine...don't you like me to see Concubine Chun?"
Concubine Xiang shook her head hurriedly: "Of course I didn't mean that! It's just that Concubine Chun has been feeling unwell recently. You have to be good and don't make trouble for her. Do you understand?"
Wayu said charmingly: "I understand!"
As the eldest princess left, Concubine Xiang couldn't help but murmur to herself: "I'm afraid..."
The palace maid standing beside her showed a look of surprise in her sleeves: "My Lady, are you saying that Concubine Chun is pregnant?"
Concubine Xiang sighed, "To make the emperor so nervous - he's almost inseparable!"
Yingxiu lowered her head and thought for a long time before saying, "Concubine Chun is so favored, if a prince is born, she will be the concubine."
Concubine Xiang laughed: "Noble concubine? Not just a mere noble concubine?"
Yingxiu was secretly frightened, it wasn't just the imperial concubine? The imperial concubine would become the queen!
"Your Majesty, what should we do? Do you want to discuss this with the noble concubine?" Yingxiu couldn't help but feel anxious.
Concubine Xiang glared at her personal maid. After all, she was newly promoted and was not as stable as the original Ying Xiu! That's right, Concubine Xiang's personal maid, Ying Xiu, had not changed for many years. Even if she changed the person, she would not change her name.
.Today’s Yingxiu is already the fourth generation.
"The emperor has not announced it to the public, do you want me to go against the emperor?" Concubine Xiang asked in displeasure.
Concubine Xiang sighed, "It must be that the fetus is not yet firmly seated. The emperor does not want to make any announcement, so how can I dare to do so? Just pretend that I don't know. After a few months, the fetus is stable, and the emperor will report it to your wife."
Concubine knows."
As she spoke, Concubine Xiang murmured to herself: "There hasn't been such a happy event in the palace for a long time... The emperor must be very happy."
There was some panic and uneasiness in Yingxiu's eyes, "I am just a little worried. If the pure concubine gives birth to a prince and becomes a noble concubine, can the concubine continue to take care of the affairs of the Sixth Palace?"
Concubine Xiang was silent for a long time, "I am not a person who clings to power." - But if you don't have to deal with these trivial matters, how will you spend this long time in the future? Concubine Rong likes calligraphy and painting, and Concubine Lan often grows flowers.
, even Chen Shuyuan can at least lead the palace maid to play with leaves, what about her?
The palace maid Anxiang added some spices to the incense burner and whispered: "My Lady, it's late at night, why don't I have my servant serve you and have a rest."
Concubine Xiang looked at the account book and said, "Have a rest after finishing this calculation."
The next day, Yue Wangshu originally planned to leave the palace, but she saw that the sky was gloomy and there might be a heavy rain, so she had to give up her thoughts temporarily. Being bored in the palace all day long was boring, so she asked someone to prepare a ceremony for her.
Then he went to Huiming Palace.
The arrival of Yue Wangshu undoubtedly surprised Concubine Xiang. She was astonished: "Why is my sister here?"
In fact, Yue Wangshu came to visit because he was bored...
"Um, I didn't bother you, did I?" Yue Wangshu smiled shyly when he saw what seemed to be some account books on the desk inside.
Only then did Concubine Xiang come back to her senses,
I couldn't help but think of Concubine Chun's pregnancy. I thought that Concubine Chun would come to visit at this time, and at least she had great trust in her. So I smiled and invited the guests to sit down and have tea in the flower hall.
"It's all trivial things, it doesn't matter." Concubine Xiang walked over with a smile. She quietly looked at Concubine Chun's face and figure, but she couldn't see the plumpness...
"Sister, her complexion is getting better and better." Concubine Xiang said, looking at Yue Wangshu's rosy face.
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but look at Concubine Xiang, "Your Majesty, she looks a little thinner."
Concubine Xiang was startled, couldn't help but touch her cheek, and said immediately: "It's sultry in summer, and it's inevitable that you'll have a bad appetite. Is Sister Chunfei's appetite okay recently?"
Yue Wangshu nodded: "I do have a good appetite."
"That's good." Concubine Xiang nodded.
Yue Wangshu always felt that the atmosphere in the palace was a bit awkward. It would be nice if the eldest princess was here... But he also knew that the eldest princess went to study at this time and would not be able to come back until after midnight. If there were horse riding lessons, they would have to be after five o'clock.
.
Fortunately, at this time, the palace maid An Xiang came in, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to see you, my concubine."
Concubine Xiang couldn't help but feel disgusted on her face: "Why is she here again?"
Yue Wangshu couldn't help but wonder: "Does Concubine Fang often come to Huiming Palace to cause trouble?"
Concubine Xiang smiled bitterly: "This noble concubine is really hypocritical. Today she doesn't think that Bingluo is enough, but tomorrow she will complain again, saying that the material of her satin dress is too short! If she doesn't respond, she will cry endlessly, which is really annoying.
There is no peace of mind at all!"
Yue Wangshu: Uh... This is crying and making trouble, almost hanging myself.
"Who told you to be the empress in charge of the harem now? If not you, who would I look for?" Yue Wangshu couldn't help but laugh.
This joke made the atmosphere relax a lot. Concubine Xiang sighed: "But I haven't seen anyone else like this! Could it be that the inner court alone treated her slowly?"
Yue Wangshu pondered slightly: "The inner court may not be neglecting others, but others are unwilling to bother you for such a trivial matter."
Concubine Xiang was startled. It is true that Fanggui's concubines often cry and make trouble, and although they often make fuss out of molehills, they never make false accusations...
"Forget it, let her in." Concubine Xiang is a soft-hearted person after all.
After a while, Concubine Fang Gui came in looking like she was about to cry. But the moment she saw Yue Wangshu, she couldn't help but hesitated, "Why is Concubine Chun here too? Everything in the inner court is tight now."
Following you!"
Yue Wangshu: This is indeed how the beloved concubine is treated.
She was speechless for a moment.
Concubine Fang Gui turned around and rushed to Concubine Xiang: "My queen, you have to make the decision for me!"
Concubine Xiang felt her brain aching, "Come to think of it, what's wrong with you?"
Concubine Fanggui pouted with tears in her eyes: "This concubine is not doing it for her own son!"
Concubine Xiang couldn't help but be surprised. Could this concubine still be complaining about others?
Fang Gui's concubine sobbed: "Those wet nurses went too far! They secretly added salt to the food!" As she said this, Fang Gui's concubine couldn't help but gnashed her teeth, "I don't know how long they secretly ate salt behind my back. No wonder Pei'er
I’ve been getting more and more depressed lately!”
Yue Wangshu: In fact, it’s okay for wet nurses to eat a little salt. The lack of energy is probably mainly due to the hot weather, right?
As a mother, Concubine Xiang could understand, so she said sternly: "Since I am a member of your palace, you can give me a few words of reprimand or a punishment."
Concubine Fang Gui pouted and said, "They are wet nurses. How dare I punish you casually? What if they hold a grudge and secretly take revenge on Pei'er?"
Yue Wangshu thought to himself: Although Concubine Fanggui has a bad temper, she is really a good mother.
"Then what do you want?" Concubine Xiang asked patiently.
Concubine Fang Gui immediately said: "It's better to just kick her out and find a new wet nurse."
Concubine Xiang's face darkened slightly.
Seeing Concubine Xiang's disapproval, Concubine Fanggui started to cry again: "Poor concubine, Pei'er is still in her infancy and doesn't even have good milk! Concubine is really heartbroken! Those people
The wet nurse just sees that the concubine and her daughter are not favored, so she just takes care of the dishes! The concubine can tolerate it, but Pei'er is still a child! Please make the decision!"
Concubine Xiang was howled so hard that her ears were ringing, "Okay, okay, I just ask the inner court to change it for you!"
Hearing this, Concubine Fang Gui broke down in tears and laughed for a second: "Thank you so much, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is really Pei'er's reborn parents!"
The corner of Yue Wangshu's mouth twitched: You are such a talented girl!
