Chapter 324 Sister-in-law of the Wen family (client closed and pushed to add updates)
Because Wen Xiaotu's belly became pregnant, Emperor Ming Zhao was afraid that his beloved wife might have fetal motility, so he decided not to return to the palace for the time being.
Although Wen Xiaotu didn't think it would be a hindrance, it seemed good to stay in the garden. Although there were no ground dragons, there was plenty of charcoal and there was no need to worry about being cold.
What's more, the scenery of the Summer Palace is much better than that of Daxuan Palace. Even on a bleak autumn day, there are maple leaves like fire, chrysanthemums in full bloom, and a sea of hibiscus flowers.
There are also countless rare birds in the garden, including peacocks and golden pheasants in the Peony Garden, mandarin ducks, gulls and herons in Xiaoqing Lake, and a crane lining the clouds in the clear sky, creating a poetic and picturesque scene.
Such leisurely and contented life, it would be nice if I didn't have a belly that is getting rounder and rounder all day long.
Although it is certain that this time it is not twins, it is still the first time for this body, and many discomforts during pregnancy are still inevitable. Although she did not suffer from morning sickness at the beginning of the pregnancy, as her belly got bigger, it became more and more severe.
Work hard.
After giving birth to Congee Rice, she had obviously vowed never to have another baby, so why was she pregnant again now?
When Wen Xiaotu thought about that year, he couldn't help but feel that his brain must have been crazy.
"Your Majesty, Huang Yuanling is here to ask you for a safe pulse." Aunt Qiurong walked in quickly to report.
Wen Xiaotu, who was leaning on the beauty's couch, said "Hmm" and ordered: "Help me up." - She had a big belly and it was inconvenient to get up by herself.
Huaixu quickly and carefully helped her up.
Now that she is pregnant, she needs to take Ping'an pulse every day. Wen Xiaotu is young and healthy, and the fetal image is natural and unobstructed.
"The Empress is already seven months pregnant, and the fetus in her belly is strong, but she still needs to be careful, especially since the weather has been cold recently. The Empress needs to be careful to keep out the cold." Huang Zhuzai, the hospital orderer, warned carefully, "In addition, starting from today, you need to be careful.
You have to ask the midwife to confirm the position of the fetus in the belly."
At seven months, the baby in the belly should be lying head down.
It was obvious that Wen Xiaotu had given birth once, but Huang Huan didn't know that she had given birth to a baby before, so he quickly introduced the reincarnation to her, "Even if you haven't reincarnated yet, you don't have to be impatient. At seven months, even if the dragon
It's normal for the baby to be head-down and change from time to time."
Wen Xiaotu: That’s so verbose.
After Huang Hui left, Wen Xiaotu saw that the weather was fine outside, so he asked Huaixu to help him go for a walk in the courtyard outside the palace. He held his waist with one hand and walked slowly, like an old lady with a big belly.
At this moment, Qiu Sang hurried over and reported: "Your Majesty, Madam Yangweihou, County Lord Wanning, and Madam Xinsi handed over signs asking to see you."
Wen Xiaotu raised her eyebrows. Ever since Wen Li was deprived of his title, the Duke of Wen Jiachang had asked for permission to meet him several times, but she had always rejected them. However, this time, the request was for the other three separate families.
"Will the empress receive you?" Grandma Qiu Sang asked cautiously.
Wen Xiaotu said calmly: "Since there are only three rooms, let's be sure." - The Wen family is her mother's family. It is impossible for her to stay away from her mother's family forever, but she doesn't want to be a member of the Changguo Duke's palace.
Bye now.
The Yiyuan Palace did not have as many rules as the Daxuan Palace, so three wives were quickly arranged to visit the palace.
Since the Empress Dowager, Madam Yangweihou, Xin Shuren, and Wanning County Princess were gone, the three sisters-in-law went straight to the Queen's Heqing Palace. All three of them were dressed according to style, behaved humbly, and gathered their skirts to say hello.
Wen Xiaotu had a watermelon belly, but she was not dressed up. She was only wearing ordinary clothes, and her expression was quite gentle. She nodded, "No courtesy, please sit down."
The three sisters-in-law were seated according to their elders. Although the highest status of the three was undoubtedly the county head Wanning, Wanning was married to Cheng Bai, the youngest of the four Wen brothers. Since entering the house, she has never used her status to treat her elders.
My sister-in-law has always been respectful, so she took the initiative to give in and took the last chair.
Mrs. Shen of Marquis Yangwei had a careful look on her face, "I know that my wife is getting heavy, so I shouldn't bother you, but... I am mainly afraid that my wife will misunderstand me, so I want to go to the palace and explain it to you. Mrs. Tai.
We really don’t know anything about it!”
Chengsong's daughter-in-law, Xin, and Chengbai's daughter-in-law, Wan Ning, nodded one after another, with a look of grievance and helplessness on their faces. Who would have thought that the old lady would be in trouble with the empress of the middle palace?!
Wen Xiaotu said calmly: "Of course I don't have to worry about this. We are all divided into different families. Naturally, everyone has their own affairs."
The three sisters-in-law all breathed a sigh of relief, but they could also see that the Queen and the Duke of Changguo were at odds!
Mrs. Shen hurriedly presented another red gold Guanyin statue, "This is the one my wife specially asked Taiming Temple to consecrate. If I bathe in the incense in the temple for seven or forty-nine days, I will definitely protect the Queen and give birth to the emperor's heir safely."
"
Wen Xiaotu glanced at it, oh, it was still pure gold, with a smile on his face: "I'm interested." - She knew that her second brother was rich, so she was not polite.
He asked casually: "Second brother, how is your health now?"
Mrs. Shen showed a flattered look, and she quickly stood up and folded her clothes: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, Mr. Hou... everything is going well in my term of office, but I am a little worried about Your Majesty. Mr. Hou also ordered people to buy a lot of specialties from Jiangnan Province. After a few days, he will be fine."
If they can be sent to the capital, I will go back and select some good ones to send to the palace. I hope the empress will not dislike them."
Wen Xiaotu nodded and asked casually: "Is Mrs. Tai okay?"
Mrs. Shen was stunned for a moment, but she still answered truthfully: "The old lady has been ill intermittently. My wife also went to serve her a while ago. The old lady deserves to be said to be okay."
Wen Xiaotu said, "Hmm" in a nonchalant manner, "Mrs. Tai always has her own ideas."
Mrs. Shen smiled bitterly, the old lady just had too many ideas, and she could still persuade the old master when he was still alive. Mrs. Shen said carefully: "Perhaps the empress does not believe some of her words, but I still take the liberty to speak out - Guo Guo
My father-in-law...actually doesn't know about it either."
Wen Xiaotu:??Her eldest brother, the second generation Changguo Gong Wen Chengdong didn’t know about it?!
How can this be?!
Lady Xin also hurriedly whispered: "The Duke just trusts his wife and mother too much..."
The head of Wanning County also hurriedly echoed: "As I said before, the Duke of Guo thought that his mother was ill and had resigned from the James Mansion, and the Emperor agreed."
Resigned? Although she was a high-ranking official, it was okay not to be a small official, but she obviously meant to take the blame and resign... The emperor did not tell her about this trivial matter.
Wen Xiaotu was silent for a while. Her eldest brother... was never very smart, and he was filial to his parents and protective of his wife. If Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu teamed up to hide it from him, maybe he would really be kept in the dark.
"That's fine." Wen Xiaotu sighed deeply. She also wanted to believe that her brothers were all virtuous.
"Since Xin Shuren has entered the palace, she will go to Shengping Hall to visit Concubine Shu." Wen Xiaotu said with a gentle face, "Concubine Shu misses you very much."
"Yes, thank you so much, empress!" Xin Shuren couldn't help but smile.
Marquis Yangwei's wife Shen and the head of Wanning County both looked envious. This concubine Shu was really a capable person. The sage empress regarded her as one of her own. The current empress also regarded her as her arm. Although she was not favored, she also had people under her knees.
It is the first time that a concubine has achieved this level of being a concubine.
