"This concubine Xin's vicious heart is really like that of Wei Jingxuan back then." After scolding her like this, Jin Ping smiled again, "It's a pity that she never dreamed that the mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole follows behind; the master
I have long understood her thoughts, and have always asked Qi Kuan to monitor her secretly."
Xianyue smiled and said to Qi Kuan: "Since you know that Xin Bin will do something, you and Lin Yuan must wake up the 120,000 people to monitor the other side. If anything is discovered, come and report it to me immediately; in addition, besides Yong,
Cong, the concubine should also be her target, you must pay more attention."
After Qi Kuan responded one by one, Xianyue softened her tone and said: "You are tired after a night of surveillance. Go back and rest. Remember to tell Lin Yuan to avoid accidentally missing clues."
"My slave knows." Qi Kuan retreated as he was told. In the next few nights, he and Lin Yuan would alternate surveillance day and night. And every night, Xiao Huazi would go to the stable to stay for most of the night, but it was always the same as the first night.
Can't see or do it.
In the past few days, Xin Bin often went to Chen's or Wang's place, and occasionally she would go to Shen Bin's place to sit and talk for a while. As for Xianyue, although she hated Xianyue in her heart, the latter always
She is a queen, and she dare not neglect her. She looks at each other in the morning and dusk every day, and is respectful and humble, so that no one can find a single fault. Only each other understands in their hearts that this is just the most hypocritical illusion, and a storm will come soon.
.
Mrs. Wang, on the other hand, complained every three days that she was feeling unwell during pregnancy and her limbs were weak, so she couldn't come over to say hello. For this, Xianyue not only did not blame her, but instead sent someone to send a message to her, so that she could have a good rest and rest.
On this day, after coming out of Xianyue Palace, Xin Bi and Chen walked together. Taking advantage of the fine weather, they went for a walk in the garden behind the palace. Rows of golden osmanthus trees were planted on both sides of the path. Now is the season when osmanthus flowers are in full bloom.
, the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus floats all over the road.
After Chen ordered someone to climb a few branches and smell them carefully, she said with a smile: "The golden osmanthus trees here are blooming better than those in the imperial garden. The fragrance is rich and long. Smelling this fragrance, my mood becomes particularly good."
Concubine Xin took one and sniffed it and said, "It smells good. If you like it, you can fold some more and put them in a vase. You can change them every two days. Or you can have people collect the osmanthus flowers, wash them and dry them in the sun.
It can be accessed at any time.”
Mrs. Chen nodded, then saw Xin Bin with a blank look on her face, and asked doubtfully: "What's wrong? You've been looking like this since just now, but what's on your mind?"
Xin Bin sighed softly, shook her head and said, "It's nothing, I just suddenly feel that things in this world are really unfair sometimes."
Mrs. Chen thought for a moment and said, "But are you thinking about Dun Bin?"
Xin Concubine smiled bitterly and said: "I have tried my best to do everything, but I still can't please the Empress. On the contrary, I am dissatisfied with Dun Concubine. It is obvious that she has done many things wrong, but the Empress has always been lenient to her and not only agreed to marry her."
For my concubine’s sake, I don’t have to worry about her morning and evening.”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Chen also frowned, shook her head and said: "Since Mrs. Wang was pregnant with the dragon fetus, she has been arrogant and arrogant, and has become more and more excessive. However, the Queen has always indulged her, but she always treats you.
Neither cold nor hot, even a slightly closer word
I don’t have anything to say, it’s really... Well, I don’t know what to say.” After saying that, she patted Xin Bin’s hand and said, “But don’t worry too much, the distance will tell the horse’s power, and the time will tell the people’s hearts.
"The Queen will understand all this sooner or later."
"I hope so." Xin Bin responded softly. At this time, Xiuzhu said uncertainly from the side: "Master, the person in the pavilion seems... to be Dun Bin."
"Dun Bin is not feeling well, why are you here?" Before Xin Bin finished speaking, Mrs. Chen frowned and said, "No, that person seems to be really Dun Bin. Come on, let's go over and have a look."
Xin Bin nodded and walked to the pavilion with her. After getting closer, it turned out to be Wang. When the palace attendants around Wang saw them, they lowered their heads and whispered in Wang's ear. A trace of light flashed in the latter's eyes.
Impatient, he stood up holding the palace attendant's hand and bowed his knees to Mrs. Chen who was walking into the pavilion, "I have met your empress, my empress is blessed."
"Excuse me." Ms. Chen said with a serious look on her face: "Didn't Concubine Dun say she was feeling unwell? She didn't even go to see the Queen to pay her respects, so why are she here again?"
Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "Returning to your Majesty, I did feel dizzy before. I couldn't even sit still. I rested for a long time before I could barely get up. I heard that the osmanthus flowers are in full bloom here, so I came here to have a look. I didn't know that it was so good."
I happened to meet the empress and sister Xinbin. By the way, I have asked someone to make some snacks. Would you like to have a try?"
"No need." Mrs. Chen said with a cold face: "Since Concubine Dun is fine, you should go to the Empress to pay her respects first. Although the Empress is generous and spares you the trouble of sleeping in the morning and dusk, you should still exercise some discretion.
, don’t be too casual.”
Mrs. Wang's face turned green and white as she spoke, and she forced out a smile and said, "Your Majesty taught me a lesson, I will go over to pay my respects to the Queen in a moment."
After the Chen family walked away, Wang's face suddenly darkened, and she gritted her teeth and said: "Even the queen didn't blame me, so who is she to teach me a lesson like this!"
The palace servant next to her said: "Empress Wan Fei has been very close to Xin Bin these days. I think she saw that the empress treated her master favorably but had a cold attitude towards Xin Bin, so she felt dissatisfied and took the opportunity to reprimand the master."
Mrs. Wang stared at the direction they were leaving and snorted coldly: "It's Xinbin's incompetence that makes the Queen happy. Who's to blame?" As she said that, she stroked her gradually protruding belly and said coldly: "Let her try it again.
After a few days of majesty, she will not have this chance when I give birth to a prince."
The palace man heard the meaning of her words and said with a smile: "That's right. According to the emperor's favor towards the master, when the master gives birth to a dragon fetus, even if it is a little princess, he will definitely make you a concubine, or even a concubine.
Concubine, when the time comes, it will be Concubine Wan who will look at your face."
He originally wanted to please Ms. Wang, but in the end he received Ms. Wang's cold gaze, "What are you talking about, little princess?"
The palace servant realized that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly slapped himself on both sides of the mouth. He endured the pain and said with a smile: "Look at this slave's bad mouth. He always says the wrong thing. My mother said that the son is sour and the woman is hot. The master has been saying this since he got pregnant.
If you like to eat sour food, you will definitely be pregnant with a little brother."
Although the prince and the princess are both dragon fetuses, the latter is not qualified to inherit the throne. Therefore, whenever the concubines in the palace are pregnant, they hope that they will give birth to an elder brother; just like Wei Jingxuan, who has given birth to three daughters, but still
Thinking of getting pregnant in order to give birth to a brother, so that the mother is more valuable than the son.
After hearing this, Mr. Wang's expression improved and she said coldly: "Think about it before you speak next time. Don't let me remind you every time."
The palace attendant hurriedly said: "This slave must remember the master's instructions."
Mrs. Wang looked down at her belly and murmured: "My child, you must strive for excellence and never let me down. After you are born, my mother will definitely give you the best things!"
