Empress, she doesn't want to fight

Chapter 13
"Since you are pregnant, you should reward it." Emperor Yong'an thought for a moment, and said, "I reward Jiang Cairen with two pieces of brocade, two pieces of woven gold silk, two gold-studded jewels, and a pair of suet jade bracelets." , a dendrobium of pearls."

Zhao Quanfu thought to himself, this reward is usually considered generous, but it is worth thinking about at this time. Not long ago, the rewards received by Lu Meiren and Ji Zhaorong, who were pregnant, were two or three times that of this reward, which was different from the one diagnosed last night. The rewards given to the pregnant Song Yuyi were even more incomparable.

Zhao Quanfu glanced at Emperor Yong'an's expression, and asked tentatively, "What about Jiang Cairen's grounding?"

According to the normal situation, Jiang Cairen is pregnant, the emperor should have relieved her confinement, but now it seems that the emperor has no such intention.

Sure enough, Emperor Yong'an said: "The merits and demerits cannot be offset."

Not a while after Lianqiu returned to Yufuyuan, the reward arrived. The little eunuch who delivered the reward turned around and left after delivering the reward. Lianqiu and the others looked at each other in blank dismay. Is this gone?The master didn't lift the ban?

Jiang Man waved her hand in a good mood, "Okay, what are you doing standing here, let's go our separate ways."

"Master?" Seeing that Jiang Man was still looking happy, Lianqiu called out to her worriedly, master, don't you be mad?

Jiang Man turned around helplessly, and said in an angry way: "Don't worry, I'm not angry and stupid, anyway, it's only a few days away from three months, it doesn't matter whether you lift the ban or not. You and Wan Dong will take all the rewards that are due." Get up, the two weaving golden silks will not be collected, just make two summer clothes, and wear them when the weather gets hot after a while."

After Lianqiu realized that he had accidentally muttered what was in his heart, but since the master was still in the mood to make new clothes, he should really not be angry.

Thinking of Jiang Man's first bedtime service where she was worried about gains and losses, but what Jiang Man should do, Lianqiu thought angrily, she was also in a daze, just as big-hearted as their master, let alone the emperor She didn't get rid of her confinement, even if the emperor didn't care about her after knowing she was pregnant, without any reward, their master might not care.

At the same time, the news of Jiang Man's pregnancy also spread in the palace, but before everyone was envious and jealous, they learned that the emperor had not relieved Jiang Cairen's restraint even after he knew that Jiang Cairen was pregnant. , and the rewards given are not comparable to those of Song Yuyi, Ji Zhaorong, Lu Meiren, etc. Afterwards, they become gloating, so what if they are pregnant, if they are not favored, they are not favored.

Therefore, everyone's attention is still focused on the Mincer Palace.

On May [-]th, Jiang Man had been confined for three months, but Yufuyuan was still as quiet as before. Everyone seemed to have forgotten that Jiang Man could go out and entertain guests. Maybe some people still remembered, but it seemed that the other concubines did not ask for help. The meaning of Yufuyuan gate, they pretended that they had forgotten it too.

Only the palace servants of Shang Gongju sent the summer clothes that should have been delivered long ago on May [-]th.

The palace servants who came were very talkative, saying that they should have sent over the prepared summer clothes earlier, but Yufuyuan didn't entertain guests recently, and they wanted to come over to say hello to Jiang Cairen in person, so they kept going. dragged until now.

No matter what the reason was for sending Xia Yi over now, at least what he said was nice, so Jiang Man believed it herself, and rewarded him with a smile.

Coming out of Yufuyuan, the oval-faced palace maid among the two from Shang Gong Bureau squeezed the purse in her hand, smiled and said to the round-faced one: "This Jiang Cairen is generous and unfavored." The masters are not the same, but they are a bit like Song Yuyi's kind of noble and upright."

She was fortunate to have followed Li Shanggong to send clothes to Minse Palace once, and Song Yiyi, like Jiang Cairen just now, listened to their conversation with a smile, and then gave each of them a purse, which contained several silver nudes.

The one with the round face nodded approvingly, but he was thinking that although the emperor treats Jiang Cairen just like him now, Jiang Cairen is pregnant after all. As a princess, the emperor would praise Jiang Cairen a little bit for the sake of the little princess.

Didn't Li Shanggong think of this so that they changed the summer clothes they were going to give to Yufuyuan into ones that were better in color and material, and asked them to send them over as soon as Jiang Cairen lifted the ban, and put Speak nicely.

Taking a step back, even if Jiang Cairen fails to give birth to a child and falls out of favor completely, they have nothing to lose.

And in Yufuyuan, Lianqiu and Wandong are showing Jiang Man the clothes sent by Shanggong Bureau.

"The workmanship is very fine. It should be sewn by some embroiderers who are good at needlework in Shanggong Bureau. The embroidery on the corners of the skirt seems to be done with care." Wan Dong has been in Shanggong Bureau for several years, and he can almost see it at a glance. I can see the quality of the clothes.

"The color is also very good, just suitable for summer wear." Such as water green, lake blue, blue and so on, it feels very refreshing at first glance.

Jiang Man asked the two of them to put away their clothes for the time being after reading it. The weather was getting hotter, and they would be able to wear the clothes in a few days.

Jiang Man stayed in Yufuyuan until the Empress Dowager's birthday in early June, and then she stepped out of the gate of Yufuyuan.

The Palace of Compassion and Ning, where the Empress Dowager lives, is on the same line as Yufu Garden, but the Palace of Compassion and Ning is at the front, while Yufu Garden is at the northwest corner.

After Jiang Man walked out of Yufu Garden for a while, she ran into Su Chongyuan and Bai Cairen. Since they met, Su Chongyuan was still higher in status than Jiang Man, and Jiang Man couldn't pretend that she didn't see her, so she had to go forward to greet them.

Su Chongyuan has been in the palace for some years, and it is said that she was once favored for a while. When she was the most favored, even Concubine Jiang avoided it. Jiang Man had never seen Su Chongyuan's scenery, but only saw Su Chongyuan's delicate appearance and weak willow With the posture of supporting the wind, Jiang Man could think that when she was favored, Emperor Yong'an must be reluctant to frowned at the beauty.

It's just that the emperor's favor is too short-lived. Su Chongyuan can't see Emperor Yong'an several times a year now. It's not that Su Chongyuan didn't work hard, otherwise Bai Cairen would not live in Fufengxie. At that time, Bai Cairen wanted to leave Yufuyuan , and Su Chongyuan needed a newcomer to attract the attention of Emperor Yong'an, so Bai Cairen moved to Fufengxie with Su Chongyuan's help.

However, Baicai people were not liked by Emperor Yong'an, and Emperor Yong'an's feet still rarely stepped into the gate of Fufengxie.

Su Chongyuan had a look of melancholy between her brows, her eyes glanced at Jiang Man's belly, a trace of jealousy flashed in her eyes, she quickly put it away, stepped forward to support Jiang Man, and said softly: "Sister Jiang, don't be too polite, you Now that you are pregnant, don't care about these false rituals."

Jiang Man smiled and said a few polite words to Su Chongyuan, and then avoided Su Chongyuan's arm holding her without any trace, "Let's go quickly, to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday, it's not good if we go late."
