323, One after one concubine happy pulse (please complete order)
In the box, there are two luminous pearls the size of quail eggs.
Silk lining.
In the dark room, the light shines brightly.
"Sister Jinxian, you have wronged me."
"This pearl of the night really needs to be placed in the inner room to show its dazzling effect."
Concubine Wu Hui smiled sweetly and showed no signs of panic after her "adultery" was revealed.
How could someone as smart as her not be prepared?
"You are playing this kind of trick..."
"Do you really think that this princess doesn't know what you are talking about, what you are saying, and what you are about to do?"
Princess Jinxian glanced at Concubine Wu Hui and pointed it out directly.
Compared with Concubine Wu Hui's worries, she really does not need to save any face for Concubine Wu Hui. Although Concubine Wu Hui is favored now, she does not have a prince yet. Without a prince, she is just an ordinary concubine. Even if she has a prince, even the prince's biological mother, Zhao Lifei, is in front of her.
, I don’t dare to be too presumptuous, let alone the concubine of an ordinary prince.
After hearing this, Concubine Wu Hui's expression turned cold.
There is no way to regain composure.
After all, it is no longer the time for her to calm down. No matter how calm she is, if she cannot change Princess Jinxian's mind, Princess Jinxian will destroy her immediately.
"Jinxian, Wu Jieyu once gave you the Alchemy Scripture, which can be regarded as a favor."
"She made a big mistake today. It's hard for you and me to talk to the saint. Even if the saint deals with her face to face, he will hate you and me. Besides, Wu Jieyu and you have a sisterly relationship after all. How can we entangle her?"
Don’t let go.”
Bai Gui saw that the two of them were getting worse and worse, so he stepped forward to persuade them.
He must have refused to let Princess Jinxian expose Concubine Wu Hui's "crime", because even if Concubine Wu Hui was punished, for him, Li Longji would probably feel uncomfortable in his heart and would gradually stay away from him.
Currently, he still cannot do without Li Longji's support in planning some things.
So... In this case, neither he, nor Concubine Wu Hui, nor Princess Jinxian, there is a winner among them.
"What does Marquis Lin Yi mean?"
Concubine Wu Hui's eyes lit up, and she heard another meaning from Bai Gui's words.
Is this not a disaster but a blessing?!
Use this as an excuse to seize her, and then the three of them can cooperate better. After all, at the status level of Princess Jinxian and Lin Yihou, although they need to make good friends with the harem, they are definitely not as urgent as her.
She pressed harder and harder, and Bai Gui had no choice but to direct and act the scene by himself. The purpose was to force her to give in and take second place in future cooperation.
Although we don't want to make her a puppet, the benefits gained from manipulating her, a beloved concubine, will definitely be greater than having a good relationship with her.
But Concubine Wu Hui didn't mind Bai Gui manipulating her behind her back.
She was never afraid of others taking advantage of her. What she was afraid of was that she would lose the value of her use.
Besides... how could she, a mere prostitute, have any leverage that could fall into Bai Gui's hands?
"What does the empress want?"
"Favour in the harem? I can't help you with this matter. It all depends on you."
"Befriending foreign ministers and coveting the throne? This is only possible if the empress is the next prince."
Bai Gui asked rhetorically.
Although it seems that Concubine Wu Hui, a concubine without a prince, is in a hurry to make friends with foreign ministers so early, but this can prove Concubine Wu Hui's foresight. After giving birth to a prince, she will rush to make friends with foreign ministers. It is not too late, but this is a political means.
When used, there is no silent feeling like spring rain.
Similarly, after giving birth to a prince, before making friends with foreign ministers, it is absolutely necessary to keep an eye on Concubine Wu Hui.
Also, this is the last point.
The women of the Wu family are all good at giving birth, and they have inherited the excellent genes of the Wu family. It is rare to see people from other ethnic groups who have difficulty conceiving. Based on her appearance, Concubine Wu Hui is sure to have many children and be blessed.
Concubine Wu Hui was confident enough that she could give birth to a prince.
Therefore, planning in advance is understandable.
Princess Jinxian heard what Bai Gui said. Although there were some self-interested actions that might be harmful to the Li Tang royal family, she frowned slightly and said nothing.
The Li Tang royal family is the Li Tang royal family, she is her, and she understands this quite clearly.
Moreover, she also firmly believes in Bai Gui's character, and she should give her a proper explanation later. It would be meaningless to refute Bai Gui's words now, and it would only cause trouble between the two of them.
"Marquis Lin Yi... just speak up if you have something to say?"
Concubine Wu Hui frowned and said.
"Your Majesty asked me to speak out, so I will speak out."
"With your current identity and status, with all due respect, you are not qualified to cooperate with me and the princess."
"Unless the queen can give birth to a prince..."
"Concubines with a prince, and concubines without a prince... I believe the empress also knows the difference."
Bai Gui looked calm and said slowly.
"Prince?"
"If I could have known when Lin'er would be born, I would have given birth to her long ago..."
Concubine Wu Hui's pretty face flashed with a hint of embarrassment.
Wu's daughter was good at giving birth, but Li Longji had three thousand beauties in his harem. How could she get the king's favor all the time, and Li Longji was also diligent in political affairs now. According to the daily records, the time she was able to accompany the king,
Seven or eight times a month is considered the ultimate favor.
But she also knew that Bai Gui was right. There was a huge difference between concubines with a prince and concubines without a prince. In the latter, after the emperor died, the lower-level concubines became nuns, while the higher-level concubines lived in Chongsheng Palace.
, died of old age here.
Some emperors may even ask for burial!
"I have been practicing Taoism for many years, and I know a prescription that can help people get pregnant. I will prescribe it to you later..."
"The empress only needs to take this prescription, and the birth of the prince will be just around the corner."
Bai Gui smiled and said.
"really?"
Concubine Wu Hui was moved.
Which woman in the palace doesn't want to get pregnant?
I took a lot of pregnancy preparation pills.
"Brother Bai Dao is a successful cultivator, how could he lie to you?"
"Besides, Wu Jieyu, you alone are not worthy of being deceived by Brother Bai."
Princess Jinxian glanced at Concubine Wu Hui and said calmly.
"I naturally believe what Marquis Lin Yi said..."
Concubine Wu Hui raised her eyes and took a closer look at Bai Gui, her pretty face turned red.
One of the reasons why she covets the power of Bai Gui and Princess Jinxian is that her heart is really moved by beautiful men like Bai Gui who are successful in cultivating Taoism.
Bai Gui wrote the prescription and gave it to Concubine Wu Hui.
Concubine Wu Hui left the two pearls behind and hurried back to the palace with the prescription and the maid. She couldn't wait to test the magic of the prescription.
Bai Gui is a monk and knows some medicine, which is understandable.
In addition, she could also ask the imperial doctor at the Imperial Medical Office to find out more about the medicinal materials in this prescription. As long as it is a beneficial medicine, there should be no major problems after taking it. Bai Gui also had the motive to harm her in this regard.
After Concubine Wu Hui leaves.
Princess Jinxian then began to ask Bai Gui about the purpose of taking such measures.
"Concubine Wu Hui has a sinister and vicious personality, and is as cunning as a fox or a rabbit. It would be a disaster for someone like her to accompany a saint, not to be submissive..."
"I gave the prescription, firstly, to stabilize her temporarily and let her focus on this matter. Regardless of whether she is pregnant or not, she will not come to disturb me in a year or two. Secondly, except...
Besides Concubine Wu Hui, there are others who are more anxious to have a prince."
Bai Gui smiled faintly, confident of victory.
According to history, it was probably this year that Concubine Wu Hui would become pregnant, and next year she would give birth to her first prince, Prince Xia Yu, Li Yi. And the medicine he prescribed did have some fertility-assisting effects, but the effect was not that obvious.
"In the harem, there are those who want a prince... and the emperor's wife?"
Princess Jinxian said.
"Compared to Concubine Wu Hui, Empress Wang comes from a well-known family and has a much more stable and virtuous personality. Although she was a little resentful last time in Furong Garden, it is understandable that whoever lives in this position and has been idle for a long time will inevitably have some personality disorders."
"It is not easy for us to suppress Concubine Wu Hui, but if the Queen has a son, with Concubine Wu Hui being domineering in the palace, the Queen will never tolerate Concubine Wu."
Bai Guidao.
Only then did Princess Jinxian understand that Concubine Wu Hui had planned to seduce Bai Gui, a foreign minister, and Bai Gui had no way to deal with it. After all, Concubine Wu Hui was extremely smart in doing things. Most people couldn't catch the clues, and even if they caught the clues, it would be difficult to deal with them. Just like today.
This look.
But Concubine Wu Hui... Bai Gui, a foreign minister, was difficult to deal with, but in a palace battle, it was not difficult for the king and queen to govern Concubine Wu Hui.
But she didn't know how Bai Gui could make Queen Wang give birth to a prince.
If Queen Wang had no prince, it would obviously be difficult to deal with Concubine Wu Hui in a palace fight.
After Princess Jinxian leaves.
Bai Gui also hurriedly left Linyi Houfu and walked to a private house.
Concubine Wu Hui has been waiting inside for a while.
Negotiable matters.
An hour later.
Concubine Wu Hui wore a curtain hat and walked out.
"How can it be so easy to stabilize Concubine Wu Hui..."
"I caught the handle of Concubine Wu Hui, and Concubine Wu also wanted to catch the handle of me."
Bai Gui shook his head and thought to himself.
…
News from the palace spread quickly.
Concubine Wu Hui got a prescription from somewhere that could help her conceive.
Take more frequently every day.
She also used this as an excuse to let Li Longji favor her day and night.
About a month later, the imperial physician from the Imperial Medical Office diagnosed that Concubine Wu Hui had a happy pulse.
Although Concubine Wu Hui had a happy pulse because of her constitution, many concubines in the harem also thought that the prescription might also have some merits, so they asked around, and then they found out that Concubine Wu Hui got the medicine from Lin Yi last time when she went to Linyi Marquis Mansion to apologize.
I asked for it from Yihou.
Lin Yihou is a high disciple of Zong Sheng Guan. It is normal to have one or two medical skills. Taoist medicine does not distinguish between families.
So some concubines who thought they had some status sent people to Linyi Houfu to ask for the prescription.
But Bai Gui rejected them one by one, saying bluntly that he didn't.
"Show off!"
In Qingning Palace, Queen Wang said in a deep voice.
Compared with other concubines, she has no connections and is difficult to find. But she is a queen, and her status and power are much stronger than ordinary concubines. It is not difficult to enter and leave the palace.
She first went to Jinxian Temple.
Princess Jinxian is her sister-in-law, she can see her whenever she wants.
Listen to your intentions.
Princess Jinxian also secretly spies on Bai Gui to learn that things are going well.
So he drove to Linyi Marquis Mansion.
Bai Gui has the Chixue Liuzhu Pill given by Shushan. This pill may make people alive, and the flesh and bones are white. It is impossible for him to give the Queen Queen to take all this pill, but relying on his modern medical knowledge, he is in high school.
He Dongda had studied in the medical school, and with the help of this elixir, Queen Wang's stubborn illnesses were quickly eliminated.
The one I contacted this time was the Queen.
Logically speaking, the curtains and silk threads should be hung to check the pulse, but the Queen was in such a hurry that she could not care about so many etiquette precautions.
A great deed.
Queen Wang also felt that her whole body was harmonious and much more comfortable than usual.
Return to the palace.
After all, Queen Wang was Li Longji's wife. She was in her thirties, which was not too old. After several times sending people to the Zichen Hall to beg Li Longji, Li Longji had no reason to refuse and went to the Zichen Hall to sleep.
After about a few days, Queen Wang asked the imperial physician to check her pulse every day, and finally she had a happy pulse.
In the palace, Concubine Wu Hui and Empress Wang were both pregnant. Although they both regarded each other as a thorn in each other's side, after becoming pregnant, they could not go to war without authorization. Compared with before, they were more stable.
And Bai Gui is about to leave Chang'an. His time in Beijing has been long enough. If he didn't have to supervise the refining of yellow gunpowder, he would have left at the beginning of spring to serve in Jiannan Road and Jingnan Protectorate.
