Chapter 661 The saucy Concubine Jianing
Jiang Yuebai received the news that Concubine Xian was given the title of Concubine Yi and Concubine Meng was given the title of Concubine Zhen, and she was very happy for her best friends.

She dressed up carefully and went to Jingren Palace in person in a soft sedan to congratulate her. After getting off the sedan, she changed to a wheelchair.

When Concubine Yi heard that Jiang Yuebai came to congratulate her, she was much more excited than when the emperor arrived. Regardless of her pregnancy, she held Mo Yu's hand and walked quickly to the front hall to greet him.

Jiang Yuebai congratulated and presented two sets of exquisite red gold eight-treasure necklaces.

The two of them had tea and chatted very affectionately.

"Why is my sister's belly so big? It looks like she is four months old."

Jiang Yuebai leaned close to Concubine Yi's ear and whispered, "Tell sister a secret. I heard from the imperial doctor that they are twins. So they will be bigger than ordinary pregnant women."

Concubine Yi covered her mouth in surprise, her eyes fell on Jiang Yuebai's belly, and she asked with surprise, "Really?"

"Really. I just told you, but you have to keep it a secret for me." Jiang Yuebai looked happy.

Concubine Yi nodded understandingly, "Don't worry. I understand. Then you have to be more careful. Have you vomited recently? How is your food intake?"

A look of happiness as a secret was shared.

Jiang Yuebai stroked her belly and said, "I know how to be considerate of my mother. I won't vomit anymore."

This was the first time Jiang Yuebai went out after being injured. The news spread throughout the harem at rocket speed.

Soon everyone came over to see how Jiang Yuebai was recovering now, under the pretext of congratulating Concubine Yi. Are you still in a wheelchair?

After a while, a group of people came. Since she was in the name of Daoxi, it was hard for Concubine Yi to keep people out.

Everyone in the East Sixth Palace came, except Xiao Gui, who was in confinement, and Zhen Jieyu, who was in captivity, and it was very lively.

When everyone arrived, Jiang Yuebai was covered with a light blue thin silk quilt that had been prepared long ago. The actual size of her belly could not be seen.

Seeing Jiang Yuebai still sitting in a wheelchair, many people breathed a sigh of relief. There are even some who are shallow-minded, with a bit of gloating on their faces.

Jiang Yuebai saw all this, but she didn't care.

After Yi Jieyu sent the palace maid to send congratulatory gifts, she said with a teasing face, "Sister Jianing Fei and Sister Yi Fei are really close to each other. They came to Sister Yi Fei's place for the first time when they went out. I don't know what the emperor will do. think."

Before Concubine Yi could speak, Jiang Yuebai smiled and said, "You are really right. I just like and respect Concubine Yi, and my relationship with Concubine Yi is better than that of your cousins. Sister Yi Fei is not only the head of the harem, but the emperor also praised my sister's character by giving her the title "Yi". I'm afraid you are the only one who dares to be presumptuous in front of Sister Yi Fei."

After Yi Jieyu was pushed back, she said unwillingly, "Sisters Yi Fei and Zhen Fei are pregnant with the dragon heir. Not only were they promoted to higher positions but also received titles. Sister Jia Ning Fei was also pregnant with the dragon heir. What did the emperor say? No, sister, you don’t have any ideas?”

"I am not like my sister who has no rules and dares to speculate on the holy will. Concubine Yi will not care about you because of your young age. I am not that good-tempered. Someone, give me a slap!"

"How dare you! This is in Jingren Palace, how dare you hit someone. Is there any more law?" Yi Jieyu covered her stomach in panic and looked at Xia Zhi, who was walking towards her.

He looked longingly at his cousin sitting in the middle of the room, "Concubine Jianing is so arrogant, why don't you just ignore her?"

Concubine Yi smiled slightly, "When are you going to teach me how to do things? If you stand there and don't move, you can still save your child. If you struggle randomly, it's hard to say whether you can save it or not. If the baby is born, you will suffer a loss. It’s you. By the way, I remember that the emperor asked you to stay in the house and take good care of the baby, and not to wander around.”

"You!" Yi Jieyu was so angry that her mouth was full of smoke. She held her stomach and screamed, "Ah, my stomach hurts. It hurts me so much."

"Mr. Xuan. Mo Yu, go and report to the Emperor, saying that Yi Jieyu went out without authorization and spoke rudely to Concubine Jianing. She became sulky and suffered from abdominal pain. There are signs of miscarriage."

Yi Jieyu stared at her always docile and gentle cousin with her mouth open, and she scolded Concubine Yi and Concubine Jianing in her heart, "You have misunderstood me. I am just complaining about sister Jianing."

Jiang Yuebai said calmly, "I'm not familiar with you, so I don't need you to worry about my affairs. You should still slap those who should be slapped."

Yi Jieyu covered her face with her hands and said anxiously, "How could Concubine Jianing be like this? They are all concubines, and the empress is too much to bully others. I am pregnant with a dragon heir. If something goes wrong, my sister can bear it." ?”

Xi Concubine then advised, "Sister Jianing has always been generous. Sister Yi is young and ignorant. You should be an adult and not remember the faults of villains."

Jiang Yuebai smiled and said, "Sister Xi, I recognize you. Since you asked for mercy, I will spare Yi Jieyu for once. But Yi Jieyu screamed like a sister, which made me feel sick. . I don’t like anyone who bullies Concubine Yi for her good temper and makes Concubine Yi unhappy.”

Yi Jieyu refused to admit defeat and said angrily, "Who dares to make Concubine Yi unhappy?"

Jiang Yuebai looked at Xi Bin speechlessly, "Xi Bin, I've given you your face. But I can't stop some people from disobeying your advice. You still need to be taught a lesson to remember."

Concubine Yi looked at Jiang Yuebai with a smile, and felt that Jiang Yuebai, who stood up for her, was very cool.

Yi Jieyu was so angry that her stomach didn't hurt at first, but now it really hurt.

At this moment, Concubine Tian walked in.

She heard that there was a big melon in Jingren Palace and rushed over without changing her clothes. From a distance, I heard what I just said before I even entered the door. After she walked in, before congratulating Concubine Yi, she walked up to Yi Jieyu in a few steps, waved her hand and gave her two big ear scrapers, and snorted coldly, "I have tolerated you for a long time! These two slaps are still good. times.”

Yi Jieyu covered her face and held back the tears that were about to fall, "I'm not feeling well, so I'm going to leave now."

After saying this, without waiting for Concubine Yi's response, she took the maid with her and left angrily.

Concubine Yi looked at everyone and said, "If nothing happens, let's get over it. Concubine Tian, ​​you have just arrived and are sitting and chatting. In the future, if anyone is like Yi Jieyu who doesn't abide by the palace rules, ignores the superiority and inferiority, and speaks rudely, no matter he is a master or a slave, , all should be punished.”

Concubine Tian suddenly stopped her concubine, "Xi concubine, how come you, a concubine, are better dressed than I am?"

Concubine Xi was horrified. Little did she know that wearing the eight-treasure head and face given to her by Concubine Jianing would offend Concubine Tian. "This is the head and face given to me by Concubine Jianing. I didn't know that I would break the rules."

Concubine Tian sneered, "Sister Jianing thinks highly of you and gives you such a valuable gift. Do you really think you can afford it? It's so kind that you feed the dog and speak for that bitch Yi Jieyu."

Concubine Xi whispered, "I'm afraid that something will happen to Yi Jieyu, and Concubine Jianing will be implicated."

Jiang Yuebai said with a smile, "I know that Sister Xibin has no bad intentions. Sister Tianfei, if you are jealous of Sister Xibin, I will give you a better condom later."

Concubine Tian said coldly to Xi Concubine, "What are you doing here? Why don't you leave quickly?"

He turned around and ran to Jiang Yuebai with a smile, and said coquettishly, "Sister Jianing, you just promised me."

Jiang Yuebai said in a playful manner, "Okay, okay. I'll give you a set."

The concubines fled in a hurry, looking back from time to time to look at the three senior officials who stayed behind. She always felt that she was running into a high-end game and her brain was often not enough.

Jiang Yuebai actually thinks that Xi Bin is not a bad person.

Although he is not very smart, when others are watching the show, he often fights for others and protects the relatively weak party. He's not a bad-to-the-bone kind of person.

Concubine Tian pulled Jiang Yuebai's sleeve, looked left and right, stroked the pattern on it, and praised:
"Why is the pale pink butterfly embroidery on sister's dress so beautiful? It's so vivid and different from what I've seen before. Is this embroidered by the embroidery lady of the Shangfu Bureau?"

Concubine Yi came over and said, "It's true. It's like flying."

Jiang Yuebai's second aunt's quiet and intellectual face appeared in her mind, and her heart felt warm. Every stitch was given with her second aunt's hard work. She stroked the patterns on it and said:
"It was embroidered by the Shangfu Bureau. The pattern is very unique. I also like it very much."

"I'll also get a dress from Shangfu Bureau later~" Concubine Tian said excitedly.

"By the way, Sister Jianing, do you know? On the 12th of next month, the concubine ceremony will be held. By then, my sister and I will be conferring the concubine together."

Jiang Yuebai pretended not to know and asked, "Really? I don't know yet. Do we need to prepare anything?"

Concubine Tian said with expectation and excitement: "Sister, don't worry, I heard that a female officer will come to teach you. The Shangfu Bureau is also rushing to make the clothes for the concubine ceremony. I don't know if the three of us have the same style."

"Do you want the same thing or something different?" Concubine Yi asked following Concubine Tian's words.

Concubine Tian thought for a while and asked, "It's still the same, okay? They are all concubines with titles, so that it won't appear to favor one over another."

Concubine Yi nodded and smiled lightly, "That's right."

Concubine Tian was here and there was nothing to talk about, so Jiang Yuebai left early. Concubine Tian wanted to go with her, but Concubine Yi was very discerning and stayed for lunch.

Concubine Yi was afraid that Concubine Tian would trip up Jiang Yuebai when she wasn't paying attention, so she kept on guard against her.

Jiang Yuebai returned to Yonghe Palace and received daily letters from the emperor.

Li Chun smiled and teased her mother, "The emperor and his wife write letters three times a day. He is most attentive to his wife."

Jiang Yuebai took the letter, stroked his belly, smiled lightly, and was noncommittal.

Li Beichen's letters to her were sometimes a reflection, sometimes a poem, sometimes about state affairs, sometimes about his illness.

She replies to almost every email. The two sides are like pen pals.

Jiang Yuebai spared no effort to encourage and comfort Li Beichen, and shared his own opinions on state affairs.

Li Beichen's illness seems to be getting worse and worse, and it is becoming more and more difficult to control.

Jiang Yuebai heard that the emperor's temper was getting worse and worse, and he was often very emotional.

She understood his vulnerability and desperation.
