Half a month later, the imperial doctor came again for consultation.
It was indeed a happy marriage, and the news that the Queen was pregnant again spread.
Perhaps because of what happened in the past, the Queen's pregnancy attracted special attention this time. The ministers in the court even suggested to the Emperor that he should have more guards and midwives in Fengwu Palace. , you must take good care of the Queen no matter what.
The royal heir is really too important.
It was on this day that Si Ningchi called Shen Ting.
"Find a way to send the news of my pregnancy to the Queen Mother outside the palace." Si Ningchi calmly reached out to pick up the tea cup on the table, took a sip and continued: "Go and call Concubine De and Xu Zhaorong. , I want to choose a concubine for the emperor."
"..."
After these words fell, everyone in Fengwu Palace was shocked.
Suyun looked at the Queen Mother and pondered for a while before she seemed to have thought of something. She stepped forward carefully and asked: "Is the Queen Mother trying to deal with the Queen Mother..."
Si Ningchi chuckled and said, "Yes."
She wants Cui's life.
Now that the fetus in her belly has not yet formed, Queen Mother Cui participated in the murder of her royal son, and just waved her sleeves and hid from the palace. Do you really think she will let her go?
Si Ningchi will never allow something like that to happen again.
She knew that Mrs. Cui would not come back to the palace so easily, otherwise she would not hide out of the palace so decisively.
And if Si Ningchi wants to let Cui return to the palace, he must make a scene with Zhao Zongheng. If this scene wants to be fake and real, the best way Si Ningchi can think of is to let the harem return to the palace. Add new people.
There were a lot of words in the court, but Zhao Zongheng tried his best to suppress them and prevented them from reaching Si Ningchi's ears.
But how could Si Ningchi know nothing about this?
"Since I am pregnant, I cannot serve the emperor." Si Ningchi raised his lips and smiled, and said to Su Yun: "Now that the position of concubine in the palace is vacant, it is a good thing to add a new one to the emperor."
"My slave, I understand." Su Yun sighed silently in her heart, and finally nodded firmly. No matter what, she was on the Queen's side.
The queen was so generous and considerate that she won praise from the court and the central government.
The draft matters were also arranged immediately afterwards.
Zhao Zongheng came to Si Ningchi to complain about this countless times, but finally gave in under the threat of Si Ningchi's eyes.
Seeing Zhao Zongheng like this, he felt endless annoyance. He finally managed to get rid of the Yingge Yanwu in this harem, but the Queen recruited a new group of people for him.
bother.
So annoying.
The matter of selecting the concubine, Si Ningchi, was all handled by Concubine De and Xu Zhaorong. In order to highlight Xu Zhaorong's status, she was specially given the title of Concubine Ning.
This concubine Ning is now considered to be the closest person to the empress. She has come up step by step from a little Jieyu, and is now in the concubine position. It is expected that she will be promoted to the concubine position in a short time.
Now everyone in the palace praises that Concubine Ning is really capable. She stood in the right position early in the morning and hugged the Queen's lap. Look, there is no obstacle to her promotion. She is so suitable every time.
.
"The Empress is so anxious. The list of these beautiful girls has been handed over. Can Sister Ning Bin take a look?" Even though Concubine De is a concubine, she is really polite when facing Ning Bin.
"It's up to Concubine De to think about it, I think there's nothing wrong with it." Concubine Ning smiled submissively, took the list, took a quick look at it, and handed it back.
"That's good." Concubine De was very sensible and immediately asked someone to send a copy of the list to the Empress.
"There are not many people walking around in the palace now, and Concubine Shu is ill and recuperating again." Concubine De said in a low voice while turning the Buddhist beads in her hand: "The Empress attaches so much importance to it that she let me take care of such an important matter as choosing a concubine.
I’m really scared.”
"Empress De Concubine has been in charge of the harem for many years. I think the Empress also values her sister's calm behavior." Ning Bin smiled and looked at De Concubine and said, "Since the empress has left this matter to Concubine De, I think she can be trusted."
What Concubine Ning said made Concubine De feel happy and scared at the same time. She thought about it seriously and said, "Then what do you think it means that the Queen suddenly wants the Emperor to choose a concubine?"
Concubine De always felt that the empress's thoughts were not sudden, and something must have happened.
The empress is pregnant. She doesn't take good care of the emperor's favor at this time, but wants to add a new member to the harem. No matter how she looks at it, she feels uneasy and kind-hearted!
Concubine De is really scared now!
I was afraid that I would miss some news or fail to do something, which would make the Queen unhappy, and her life would not be saved!
"Concubine De, there is no need to worry too much. The empress has her own reasons for doing this." Ning Bin lowered her eyebrows in response.
"..."
In fact, Ning Bin didn't know what the Queen wanted to do, but she never wanted to go into details. It was the Queen's idea. She just had to do her part and do whatever the Queen asked her to do.
What.
On the day when the beautiful lady entered the palace, neither the queen nor the emperor showed up.
Concubine De and Concubine Ning were fully responsible for the draft. Concubine Li and Yan Zhaorong came to watch the fun, but they didn't see anything to see.
Everything seemed to be going very smoothly until the draft was about to end when a man walked out of the hall.
"Folk girl Jin Siyu, here are the two empresses." The woman who stepped into the palace was as white as snow and as beautiful as snow. The moment she came closer, the concubine who was sitting high on the stage dropped the cup in her hand in shock.
Ning Bin also opened her eyes in shock.
"You..." Concubine De couldn't find her voice for a long time.
"Jin family? Luonan Jin family?" Concubine De's face turned pale, and her eyes widened as she looked at the beautiful lady named Jin Siyu in front of her.
It's not really her fault for being so surprised, but the fact that this Jin's appearance is very similar to that of the Queen Mother, except that the Queen Mother's eyebrows are sharper and more expressive, while this Jin's appearance is much gentler.
It’s not like there aren’t many people in the world who look similar. It’s just that you know that she looks similar to the Queen Mother, so how dare you let her enter the palace!?
Who dares to be so bold!
Concubine De felt that she could not make the decision, so she immediately asked Jin Siyu to stay, and then ordered someone to tell the Queen that if she wanted to deal with this beautiful girl, she would not have to leave the palace.
What Concubine De didn't expect was that the Queen's order was to let the Jin family stay and be given a high status.
Concubine De secretly breathed in as she listened to the Empress's words. She knew that the Empress must have some conspiracy in arranging the selection of the concubine!
"Who does it look like!?"
"Queen Mother!?"
When Li Bi and Yan Zhaorong, who had left early but didn't see the news, heard the news, their eyes widened in shock. They had expected a lot but never expected...
