Because she wanted to hear or even see her Majesty's rage against Concubine Shen Shu and her son as quickly as possible, the Queen could not wait for a moment and hurried to Tai Chi Hall.
However, Xia Huanyu was not in the Taiji Hall. The queen frowned and asked the chamberlain at the door with a hint of anger in her voice: "Didn't Your Majesty already attend the morning court? Where are you now? The Meeting Hall?"
The waiter at the door hesitated for a while, but before he could answer, he saw Concubine Xiang coming out from around the corner and walking slowly towards Tai Chi Hall.
When the Queen saw Concubine Xiang, she put away the displeasure on her face, raised a dignified smile, and said with a soft smile: "Concubine Xiang is also here to find Your Majesty? Your Majesty is not in this Tai Chi Hall."
Ning Qian smiled slightly, shook her head slowly and said: "Just now, my concubine met Your Majesty and Concubine Shen Shu in the Imperial Garden. Your Majesty said that he would have dinner at Shuya Palace later, so he went to Xiangzhu Hall to ask my concubine
I come to the Tai Chi Palace to take the book on the royal case to the Xiang Bamboo Palace. Your Majesty will see it later." After saying that, he took out a gold medal from his sleeve and showed it to the chamberlain at the door.
The queen squinted her eyes and recognized that the gold medal was Xia Huanyu's personal belongings.
The chamberlain opened the door of the palace, and Ning Qian smiled lightly and saluted the queen, "Then I will go and get the book for Your Majesty first." After saying that, without waiting for the queen's response, she invited the queen.
He hired Tingting and entered the Tai Chi Hall.
As the master of the harem, she was refused entry to the Tai Chi Hall for two days in a row. The queen's eyes were full of indifference, she sneered, turned around and left the Tai Chi Hall.
Returning to Weiyang Palace, the queen's eyes were full of scarlet. She just sat quietly on the chair with a cup in hand, closed her eyes for a while, and the scarlet in her eyes faded slightly.
"Concubine Shen Shu, Concubine Xiang..." The queen murmured to herself, sneered, and put the tea cup in her hand on the table with a heavy sound.
A palace maid slowly walked in with a green bowl in her hand. The bowl was filled with dark brown juice.
"Empress, the medicine for today is ready." The palace maid saluted and put the bowl on the table. The aunt beside the queen quickly walked to the side and took a few candied fruits and put them on the table.
on the plate.
"Mom, you have to drink this medicine while it's hot." Mammy reminded me softly.
The queen picked up the bowl and brought it to her mouth, but suddenly threw the bowl to the ground. Everyone in the palace was shocked and knelt down quickly, "My queen, please calm down."
The queen closed her eyes, and her smile became a bit sadder: "Drink it while it's hot, drink it while it's hot, what's the use of drinking this medicine? Your Majesty hasn't spent the night in Weiyang Palace for so long, how can I get pregnant alone!
"
The maids in the palace all lowered their heads and eyes, pretending not to hear anything. The maid next to the queen was startled and quickly waved the other maids out of the inner hall.
"Oh, they are all pregnant. They are all pregnant. My father and mother ask me every day when I will be pregnant. Why don't they understand my difficulties? I also have a child! My child once was
The prince! But he is gone now!" The queen roared desperately.
"Mother, the walls have ears." Grandma was silent for a long time, and finally reminded her.
The queen smiled bitterly, her voice a little softer, "I am the queen, the queen..."
The nun bit her lip and said softly: "Although the empress does not have a prince now, she still has a heir apparent. Moreover, the empress is the master of the harem. Even if the concubines below the concubine give birth to a prince, the empress can report to the middle palace.
Feed Hui Zhaoyi, but she is under the concubine position. If the empress likes it, she will take Hui Zhaoyi's child to Weiyang Palace, and then quietly deal with Hui Zhaoyi, and the child will be
It’s yours.”
The queen raised her eyelids, and the nanny continued: "If the empress doesn't like Hui Zhaoyi's children, isn't the empress very fond of the beautiful girls who entered the palace last year? And the servants have all inquired about it, and they are right
The empresses are all loyal, and the empress will find a way to make them favored. When the time comes, if someone gives birth to a prince, the empress can hold him by her side."
"After all, we are not biological." The queen smiled bitterly.
When grandma heard this, she lowered her head and did not speak.
The queen was silent for a long time, and then she said softly: "Let me think about it again..." Then she waved her hand and asked her to leave.
Because there was something on her mind and lunch was not of much use, the queen ordered people to leave and lie down on the bed to prepare for a lunch break.
As soon as she lay down on the bed, a palace maid hurriedly walked in and saluted the queen, "Queen, Qian Xin from the Xiangzhu Palace is here, saying that Your Majesty ordered her to come to the Queen to get a piece of warm jade with auspicious words engraved on it.
Buttoned.”
The queen frowned, reached out and took out the warm jade from under the pillow: "What is your majesty doing with this warm jade? This was given to me by the prince on my birthday the year before last."
The palace maid raised her head and glanced at the queen's expression, seemingly hesitant.
"You can just say whatever you want, why are you hesitating?" The queen frowned, a little displeased.
The palace maid hurriedly responded: "Na Qianxin said that just now when His Majesty was in the Xiangzhu Palace, he felt that Concubine Xiang's hands and feet were cold, so he reported it to the imperial doctor. The imperial doctor said it was because Concubine Xiang was pregnant.
Concubine Xiang is pregnant and cannot take medicine. His Majesty said that the Queen has a piece of thousand-year-old warm jade here, and asked Qianxin to come to the Queen to get it and let Concubine Xiang wear it..."
"That's too much!" the queen reprimanded angrily, with veins popping out on her forehead. She gritted her teeth and said after a while, "You then went back to the palace maid outside and said that the piece of warm jade in my palace just disappeared a few days ago.
Yes, I have been searching for it these past few days. I have searched almost all over Weiyang Palace and still haven’t found it.”
Seeing the queen's anger, the maid trembled, so she quickly responded and left the inner hall.
After a while, there was no sound outside, and the queen's anger subsided a little. Then she called the nanny standing by: "Go and bring Su Luo and the others over."
Mammy responded, pondered for a moment, then raised her head again and asked: "Mother, what about Wang Wanzhi..."
The queen frowned, repeated the name softly, and then said after a while: "Wang Wanzhi has other uses for keeping it. The position she is in now is the position where she sees His Majesty the most, and all memorials and decrees have to pass through her hands.
A useful chess piece. If she gets pregnant, this chess piece will be useless."
Mammy agreed softly and exited the inner hall. The queen lay down on the bed, her eyes filled with tears. She was actually the biggest loser in this palace. (To be continued)
