Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 38 Miscarriage
The queen sat down with a smile, and her face froze for a moment when she heard the words, and only for a moment, she smiled again and said:
"Greetings to the queen mother on behalf of the palace."

The servant made a big salute, bowed and retreated.

The empresses of the various palaces couldn't help exchanging glances in private, and they still looked dignified in front of people.

The empress got up and delivered a Mid-Autumn Festival message in a loud voice, and all the female relatives shouted a thousand years old.

Together with the dance and music, the Qiwu Palace is peaceful again.

Li Taiwei remembered something and looked up at the banquet.

As far as he could see, he didn't see the woman in the light yellow dress, Li Taiwei was thinking about it, the old widower's advice that day, now people can't guess the clue.

"I haven't seen Chonghua for quite a while, the princess is so quiet, how is your mother?"

The empress looked over with a smile, looked at Li Taiwei, and then angrily said to Princess Changping:

"You should also learn from Chonghua, how old you are, and mess around all day long."

Li Taiwei came back to his senses, bowed to the empress, and said with a smile:
"Thanks to the empress's concern, my mother is fine. My mother just praised me a little bit ago. My mother is not here today. I am afraid that I will get into trouble and no one will take care of me. I will have to ask my father to copy the books when I go back."

"Princess Changping has a delicate temper since she was a child, and she is protected by His Majesty and the Empress. Even if she gets into trouble, it doesn't matter. If she is really punished, she will have a few cousins ​​of the prince to help copy the book."

Li Taiwei showed a very envious expression, which made the queen laugh heartily:
"You girl."

Changping is the only first-born princess. She was raised in the palm of the queen's hand since she was a child. She looks sweet and has a pleasing temperament.The empresses of the various palaces doted on her very much, and even the few princes loved her very much.

When Chang Ping was young, he once broke a glazed lamp in the Empress Dowager's Palace, and was punished by the Empress Dowager to copy books.Chang Ping wiped his tears and went to the emperor brothers to cry and cry. A total of 50 women's orders were fined, and more than [-] of them were taken back. This matter was heard by His Majesty, and everyone laughed heartily. .

The ladies sitting on the side were also amused by her childish words, covered their mouths with a handkerchief, and said with a smile:

"Even if Princess Zhaohe is not here today, and the empress is supporting you, Princess Chonghua doesn't need to be like Princess Changping."

"Yes, no matter how bad it is, there are still us. Who dares to make our Princess Chonghua unhappy."

Li Taiwei showed her daughter's tenderness rarely, got up and thanked them one by one.

Chang Ping made everyone laugh, his face was hot, he pouted and said dissatisfiedly:

"A Luan, you copied the book last time, and I helped you, so you don't expose your faults!"

Everyone laughed again after hearing the sound.

Mrs. Li smiled and apologized:
"I'll bring back that set of Longshan Duan Inkstone later, and make an apology to you!"

Chang Ping's eyes lit up, and he nodded in satisfaction.

The queen glanced at her with a smile, and then her eyes fell on the mother and daughter of the Bai family.

"I heard that your family has just married a new daughter-in-law. Ben Gong looks really nice, and the fourth young lady in your family has a stable temperament. You are a blessed one."

Bai Shi blushed, stood up with Li Yao and Zhao Shi to salute, but told the empress to stop.

"Today's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet, there is no need to pay attention to etiquette, and tell the children not to be cautious."

Bai Shi nodded and said yes, his face couldn't help being happy.

After drinking for three rounds, the atmosphere suddenly heated up.Concubine Hua proposed that if there are daughters from all prefectures who are good at singing, dancing and instrumental music, they can perform on stage.

All of a sudden, there was a moment of restlessness.

Li Taiwei knew all the virtues and abilities of these noble girls in his previous life, so he was naturally not interested, so he quietly winked at Changping.

Chang Ping understood, whispered a few words to the empress, and then retreated with Li Taiwei.

Arriving at a secluded gazebo in the side hall, Chang Ping asked the maid to guard outside, and pulled Li Taiwei to sit on a stone bench.

"It's been half a month since you came back, and you don't know that you came to the palace to look for me. These days, I'm suffocated!"

Chang Ping complained again and again as soon as he came up, Li Taiwei carefully looked at the delicate and lively face in front of him, and his heart warmed.

"I just came back and met my mother's happy event. The imperial doctor said that my mother needs to be more cautious about this pregnancy. I was worried, so I kept watching. Didn't this come here as soon as I have time today?"

Chang Ping nodded when he heard the words, if her mother and queen were pregnant, she would be so cautious, when mentioning pregnancy, Chang Ping drooped his brows and eyes again, and sighed.

Li Taiwei noticed something different, and said:

"What? But what happened in the palace?"

"I see that Concubine Xian is missing from the palace banquet today, and the Empress Dowager is also absent. Could it be that something went wrong in Guanju Palace?"

Chang Ping's eyes lit up, then went out quickly, and said with a bitter face:

"Hey, don't mention—"

"Concubine Xian fell a few days ago and had a miscarriage. The imperial grandmother insisted on blaming my mother's back."

"But Concubine Xian's pregnancy was kept from everyone. Even my mother's empress only got the letter after the incident. How could this implicate my mother?"

Li Taiwei was surprised.

Concubine Xian is the direct niece of the empress dowager, and it is heard that she almost became empress back then.Married into the palace for many years, the favor is not fading. The only regret is that she has never had any children.

The queen mother has been worrying about Concubine Xian's body for these years, and this time she finally got pregnant, and she lost her life. No wonder the queen mother was upset. Concubine Xian has no heirs, so the queen has secured her position in the middle palace.

Concubine Xian concealed her pregnancy, probably for the sake of defense, but unexpectedly there was an accident.The empress dowager was so angry that she had nowhere to vent her anger, so she could only change the way to wear small shoes for the empress.

Li Taiwei narrowed her eyes. In her previous life, she did not attend the palace banquet because of Zhao He's illness, and she did not know that Concubine Xian was pregnant.But she still knows the queen empress.

In the previous life, the prince contracted smallpox and passed away. It was rumored in the palace that the eldest prince Ming Xiang brought the infected guards into the palace, and that's how he offended His Royal Highness.His Majesty was so angry that he wanted to criticize the eldest prince, but it was the Queen's empress who personally begged for it.

She suppressed her grief, sent the white-haired man to the black-haired man, but never touched the eldest prince at all, even the servants and guards beside the eldest prince were never implicated until she died of a serious illness.
The harem is turbulent, and there are so many dirty things buried all the time. The empress is deep in the center of the whirlpool, but she can maintain a pure heart, which shows the precious character.

Li Taiwei didn't know how to comfort Chang Ping, so he patted the back of her hand twice and said:

"The empress dowager is mostly just thinking about it for a while. When this matter is found out, I will give the empress dowager an explanation."

"It's said that people's hearts can be seen over time. Everyone can see the empress's temper. You don't have to worry too much. After a while, these things will be forgotten."

Chang Ping nodded, his eyes filled with regret.

"By the way, the female doctor you arranged with me earlier is still at your house now? What's going on? There's also Doctor Fang."

"Your Highness, the Empress invites you to go over."

Before Chang Ping finished speaking, the palace maids outside said through the half-transparent brocade curtain.

Chang Ping frowned:

"I finally met you last time today, so I only said a few words."

Mrs. Li smiled and said:
"Your Majesty called you, there must be some business, just go and have a look. I will go to the palace to look for you in a few days, and I will ask Mother Jin to make you some hibiscus soufflé cakes."

Only then did Chang Ping start laughing, and told Li Taiwei to tell Li Taiwei to keep his word.

Li Taiwei smiled helplessly, and personally sent her away for a short distance, then turned around and called Dafu and Nianxia, ​​and accompanied her to recomb her hair and change her clothes.

The three of them chatted and laughed a few words, then turned around the corridor, facing a maid carrying a tray, she tilted her hand, and the tea on the tray splashed towards Li Taiwei.
