Concubine Yu and Concubine Xi had both given birth to each other, and they looked at each other closely at a glance.
The expression on the Queen's face could not be tense anymore. She usually moved her hands and feet, and her every frown and smile was measured, but at this time her face was full of turmoil. She just subconsciously murmured and repeated: "Hurry up and help Chen Concubine sit down.
Quickly help me sit down..."
Ji Ling frowned tightly, raised his hands and pinched his neck and did not dare to move, for fear that if he moved a step or raised his eyes, his stomach would sway and he would vomit it out to Ulanara again.
Wasn't it just "Thank you, Queen Mother... ugh!"?
The palace maids immediately moved the embroidered pier,
There was a feeling of bending in the knees behind, indicating that Xiudun had been moved in. Qixi and Bixue sat down carefully, one on each side, supporting Ji Ling.
Qixi was so distressed that she kept running her hands along Ji Ling's back and gently rubbing it on her mistress, hoping to alleviate some of her discomfort.
Another servant brought a small basin to Ji Ling.
It's okay if you don't look at this basin. Looking at it, it seems to have a psychological suggestion - Ji Ling's throat tightens and he is about to vomit again.
She endured it with all her strength and gently pushed the basin away.
Concubine Qian turned her head and saw the lightly fragrant tea that was originally prepared next to Ji Ling's seat, and immediately asked the maid next to her to bring it to Ji Ling.
The tea was boiled and just poured, so after waiting for a while, the temperature was just right.
Bixue took the tea, gave it to Ji Ling, and comforted her in a low voice: "Master, take a sip of the hot tea carefully and rinse your mouth!"
Ulanara finally came to his senses at this time.
She squinted her phoenix eyes, pinched her enamel armor, lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then raised her head and told Hua Rong: "Ask the imperial doctor to come here."
After Huarong left, Ulanala looked at everyone with a beaming face and said with emotion: "A happy event, a happy event, such a happy event! I am afraid that I will have a double happiness today - if I am really pregnant, the emperor will not know how happy he is.
What's going on!"
She paused and then told Ji Ling carefully: "Chen concubine, please have a good rest and don't walk around randomly until the doctor comes to take a look."
Ji Ling burst into tears from vomiting and wiped them with a handkerchief. He sniffed and said, "I have behaved inappropriately in front of the Queen. I am really scared. Please forgive me!"
Ulanara raised his eyebrows and said softly: "Chen concubine is still saying such silly things at this time, it doesn't make people feel distressed!"
She looked around and said in a low voice: "Listen! It's no wonder that the emperor likes Concubine Chen. With such a gentle temper, let alone the emperor, I feel pity for her when I see her."
Ji Ling supported Qixi's arm and saw a mixture of joy and sorrow on Qixi's face. What she was happy about was that if the master was really pregnant, it would be a great joy. The master's status in the emperor's heart would definitely be even greater.
important!
What's worrying is that after a while the imperial doctor came to make a diagnosis, and he still didn't know if the master was pregnant?
After all, the master had been weak in the past. Although he had been fed and fed well over the past year, he had finally recovered a lot...but there was Concubine Qi's plan to harm her body due to cold food.
Fortunately, Imperial Physician Dean took good care of him and said that his master is now fine.
But having said that, no one can give a final conclusion as to whether Concubine Qi's move hurt the master's body.
When Qixi thought of this, she hated Changchun Palace with itch.
The imperial physician came over quickly and directed his disciples to put down the medicine box. He knelt down and saluted the Queen without haste, then saluted Ji Ling and several concubines, and then began to diagnose.
After checking twice in a row, the imperial doctor raised his hand with confidence and said to Uranala: "Empress, the concubine is pregnant!"
Uranara suddenly tightened his grip on the armrest of the seat, and the enamel armor almost dug into his flesh, but with a smile on his face, he said, "Seriously? You have to look carefully!"
The imperial doctor was lying on the ground with his head lowered, his forehead resting on the back of his hand, and a hint of unhappiness flashed across his eyes - could he have seen it wrong?
"Returning to the Empress, I am sure that it is indeed a happy pulse - the concubine has plenty of Qi and blood, her pulse is smooth and strong and has twists and turns. When I press it, it is as smooth as a ball. She is already more than one month pregnant.
"
There was silence in the hall, and everyone was counting the days quickly in their minds - it was more than a month, and if you go forward, the noble lady would be pregnant in July or August.
When was that? After the Hungry Ghost Festival? Before the Mid-Autumn Festival?
Ulanara let go and said with a smile: "Okay!"
She lowered her eyebrows, her eyes slipped from the ring on her hand for a moment, then she raised her head and said loudly to Hua Rong: "Arrange the arrangements, send people out, and report the good news to the emperor in an upright and fair manner!"
Concubine Yu rolled her eyelids, looked at the queen, and then suddenly looked back.
Both Mao and Qian congratulated Ji Ling with smiles on their faces.
Not to mention how happy Qixi and Bixue were!
If it weren't for the fact that they were in the open air, the two of them would have jumped up and down with gongs and drums.
The two girls looked at me and I looked at you, both grinning, showing two rows of white and neat teeth.
Ji Ling cleared her throat gently, reminding them that this was still outside—not our own yard!
She was still a bit confused - she was pregnant? She was actually pregnant?
In modern times, she didn't even know what it was like to be pregnant, but after traveling to this time and space, she experienced it instead.
The morning sickness of vomiting acidic water just now - it's really very similar to the vomiting of a fever.
Anyway, it feels like an upset stomach.
But the meaning is quite different.
This vomiting was caused by a little life in her belly.
It's Yinzhen and her child.
Ji Ling lowered his head, stretched out his hand and gently touched his abdomen, and felt a strange and unspeakable feeling in his heart - through a layer of belly, Yinzhen's bones and blood were being nurtured, taking root, sprouting, and growing vigorously.
To be honest, she was really confused, because menstruation was often delayed. This month, it was almost time for menstruation, but it never came, and she didn't care.
She thought it was because she had just arrived at Yuanmingyuan, traveling all the way, and her body had not gotten used to the new environment, so her monthly letter was delayed.
How can you think of this reason?
After all, it has been so long since I traveled back in time, and since the first time I slept with Yinzhen, the two of them have had skin-to-skin contact, not just once or twice.
When he was with her, Yinzhen was very tolerant and loved her in every possible way. However, it has been almost a year and there has been no news.
Ji Ling has gradually faded this matter out of his mind.
I didn't expect that this joyful pulse would come so soon.
The imperial doctor turned around, kowtowed to Ji Ling and said, "Congratulations, Concubine Chen!"
He turned around again, kowtowed to Uranala, and said respectfully: "Queen, the concubine was weak in the past, and this is the first time she has been blessed. She needs to be taken care of carefully, and she can't move around too much."
"Excuse me, I'm overworked. The most important thing is not to worry or worry."
Ulanara nodded and said: "Today I ran into her concubine ceremony. After working so hard for a long time, it was something I never expected."
The imperial doctor nodded and said: "Yes, it is true that you can't work hard."
She tilted her head slightly, raised her eyebrows at Ji Ling, and said with a virtuous expression: "Chen concubine, do you feel better now?"
Ji Ling stood up, reluctantly knelt down and saluted to reply. Seeing this, Ulanala quickly smiled, lowered her hands and said, "No need, I can just sit down and reply."
Ji Ling said with a meek look on her face: "Thank you, Queen, for your concern! I took some time off and am feeling much better now."
Concubine Yu was listening, and then she suddenly interjected: "It's so hard to give birth to a child. The most you can do at this time is vomit acid, unable to eat, and unable to sleep at night, but it's nothing. You need to know what happens next.
There is still a big hurdle to overcome!”
Ji Ling knew she was talking about giving birth.
Concubine Yu sighed slightly and looked at Ji Ling with a concerned look on her face: "Chen concubine's little face looks pale and her body is thin. I'm afraid she doesn't know what she will suffer in the future!"
The queen glanced at Concubine Yu and said softly: "Concubine Yu, you are serious. You have given birth to a child, and the child is already this big. Concubine Chen doesn't know the importance of it, so why are you trying to scare her with these truths?"
Ji Ling just smiled and lowered his head.
Facing Uranala, Concubine Yu lowered her broad shoulders, smiled and said, "I'm talking too much! I'm a concubine, and when I talk about these things, I can't help but talk a few more words.
Chen concubine, don’t take it too seriously, just take good care of your baby.”
The queen looked at her deeply, but there was a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
Concubine Yu suddenly thought that the queen had never given birth to a child, and she couldn't help but feel horrified, and she immediately closed her mouth.
The queen stood up.
Only then did Ji Ling realize that Ulanala was wearing a pair of absolutely high high heels today - ultra-high flowerpot-soled shoes. The height of the heels was... super exaggerated, almost longer than the length of the uppers.
When Ulanara wore it like this, his height immediately gave him an advantage, adding a sense of momentum out of thin air.
She walked up to Ji Ling and said with a smile: "My concubine is happy. In addition, I will be gentle and respectful and thank you for your kindness. I will not give you the admonishment. You can go back and rest early! I am in the upright and bright place. I am afraid that the emperor has already suffered from it by this time."
Believed."
Ji Ling was supported by Qixi and Bixue, and asked Ulanara to leave.
When she came out of Tantantan, the concubine's attendants were already waiting for her at the door. When the eunuchs who were serving in the sedan chair saw Ji Ling coming, they all shouted in unison: "Concubine!"
In the Qing palace, the carriage or sedan chair was an important means of transportation for the concubines. There was no curtain on the carriage, and some were covered or not covered depending on the season.
Qixi and Bixue, one on each side, carefully helped Ji Ling get on the shoulder carriage. Ji Ling knew that she was pregnant, so she was extra careful, touching her belly and slowly sat down.
The shoulder cart had long been covered with a thin brocade mat with a light gold edge. Because it was summer, there was a circle of cool and slippery bamboo strips next to the thin mat, arranged in an orderly manner, which felt warm and cool to the touch.
Yinzhen gave her a sedan chair before, but this was her first time sitting in a sedan chair.
This looks like a walking chair!
Ji Ling put his hands on the armrests, and then he understood the benefits of the shoulder straps - the armrests were designed to be so comfortable, in modern terms, they are called ergonomic.
The arms rest on it and hang down smoothly along the shoulder line.
At the bottom where the wrist is placed, there are two other places that are thoughtfully wrapped in brocade, so that the bulges of the wrist can be supported.
The handrails of the shoulder cart are also made of fine yellow bamboo and are water-slippery.
"Concubine Chen, get up and drive——!"
With a song, the sedan chair was steadily lifted up until it was as high as the shoulders of the eunuch serving the sedan chair.
It's quite far from the ground.
Ji Ling: (﹏) I'm a little afraid of heights...!
Qixi and Bixue were walking on either side of Jianyu. Qixi turned around and saw Ji Ling hunched her neck and squinting her eyes, huddled on the chair like a little bear, with one hand still covering her head.
Little belly.
She quickly reached out her hand, held Ji Ling's hand tightly, and whispered to comfort her: "Master, you are not used to sitting. You will get better in the future!"
The chariot is in front, and the concubines' colorful banners are following behind. They are cheering in front and crowding behind each other for a while. From a distance, they look very majestic.
…
Zhengda Guangming Hall.
The Zhengda Guangming Hall is located in the south of the front lake of Yuanmingyuan, opposite Jiuzhou Qingyan across the lake.
Under the shade of green pines, the majestic rolling shed and the top of the mountain are solemn and solemn.
The four cauldrons on the platform in front of the palace symbolize peace in the world - whenever the court goes to court, the cauldrons will be lit to produce smoke.
In the main hall, as soon as you enter, you will see a huge golden lacquered dragon carved on the screen. The carved dragon is vivid and powerful, ready to fly away.
Yinzhen's dragon throne is also carved with a golden dragon.
Behind and on the sides of the dragon throne are pairs of lanterns, cranes, elephants, incense tubes and incense burners.
Above the main hall, the powerful four characters "upright and bright" are written by Yinzhen himself.
On one side of the main hall is a panoramic view of the Old Summer Palace, with all the landscapes clearly visible.
Yinzhen's political affairs ended early today, and the concubine's appointment was formal. The deputy envoy waited outside for a long time. When he saw the ministers and servants filing out, he came to the emperor to confirm his order. Yinzhen heard that everything went well.
, I was satisfied. Because I was in a good mood, I even praised the chief and deputy envoy officer a few times.
This is idle talk, let’s not mention it for now.
At this time, Yinzhen was standing behind the dragon chair, with one hand on the back of the dragon chair and the other hand looking at the report in front of him.
Around his waist was a gold belt inlaid with ink-colored gemstones, which made the whole person more powerful and heroic. Under the sword-shaped eyebrows, Yinzhen's eyes were deep, revealing the majesty of the emperor and a bit of lingering gloom.
.
The eunuch who came to report the news frankly was named Mi Yugui. He turned out to be the chief eunuch of Queen Shang Fengjia of Kunning Palace. He was also a respectable eunuch who could be named around the queen.
He had just arrived in front of the Zhengda Guangming Hall, and the little eunuch in front of the emperor had already recognized him. He came all the way to greet him with a smile. Even though he was far away, he stretched out his sleeves to pat him on his robe.
Fu Chen, who was sitting on the ground, quietly gestured to him and said: "Eunuch Mi, the emperor is still in there at the moment, I'm afraid he won't be available."
Mi Yugui sniffed his nostrils, hummed, and thought to himself: If I tell you a piece of news, your Majesty will be sure to be free immediately!
He suppressed his racing thoughts and looked around. The little eunuch knew that he was looking for Xiao Chenzi, so he whispered: "Eunuch Chen happened to be out on business today, and he won't be back for a while!"
Mi Yugui said "Oh" and was about to speak when in a blink of an eye he saw Jingtian, the eunuch of Yangxin Hall, walking towards here.
Jingtian is also Su Peisheng's apprentice. He single-handedly brought him out back then and is now at the same level as Xiao Chenzi.
Mi Yugui saw him coming in front of her, stretched out her hand with a smile, patted him on the shoulder, and shouted in a low voice: "I haven't seen my brother for a while, and I was thinking of going to see him."
!”
Mi Yugui still remembers Jingtian's original appearance - broad forehead, big forehead, thin and small, although not ugly, but not very decent-looking.
Somehow, since he became an apprentice with Su Peisheng, he has become fatter and taller, and even his big head no longer looks so eye-catching. When he smiles, he will reveal a row of neat front teeth, slightly
It has a somewhat honest meaning.
It is this honest and honest demeanor that makes him look exceptionally honest and reliable - Mi Yugui has no idea what the true nature is.
Mi Yugui could no longer wait for Xiao Chenzi to go in and deliver a message to Su Peisheng. He waved to Jingtian and said: "I have a good news for your master - a huge happy event: the imperial doctor has come to see me, and the concubine is happy."
!”
After he finished speaking, he slapped Jingtian behind, telling him to get in quickly.
Jingtian blinked his eyelids and didn't react for a moment: "Concubine?"
Mi Yugui was about to cry because of his stupidity. He glared and said as if he was killing a chicken and wiping his neck: "That's the former Jigui!"
Jingtian kept saying oh oh, and suddenly realized - yes, this is really a great happy event for the emperor!
Then he turned around and trotted in.
Mi Yugui looked at his back, turned around and shook his head with his hands behind his back.
When passing by Su Peisheng, Jingtian still hesitated for a moment, but he only wanted to deliver the good news, and without thinking about it, he knelt down in front of the emperor and kowtowed, saying excitedly: "Congratulations to the emperor! Congratulations to the emperor!
This servant brings good news to the Emperor, and the Emperor is overjoyed!"
The emperor's gaze turned over, so deep that he couldn't see the bottom.
Jingtian did not dare to look up at the emperor, but just swallowed his saliva and continued: "The Queen has just sent someone to report that the Concubine... is happy!"
Yinzhen stood up suddenly and said, "What?"
Su Peisheng was beside him, and he heard the emperor's voice trembling slightly with joy.
