The Golden Partridge of An Lingrong's Rebirth

"Okay, okay." The emperor looked at the latest military report and nodded repeatedly, "Nianfu lived up to my trust and put an end to the Zhuozishan rebellion. It really is a tiger father but no dog son." How happy she was, but she breathed a sigh of relief after all. She looked up at the invitation papers piled up on the table, and knew that it was time for her to visit the concubine Nian.

Su Peisheng saw the emperor's intentions, and said at the right time: "Your Majesty, it's almost time for lunch. Are you going to use it in the Hall of Mental Cultivation today? Or in the palace of some young master?"

"Didn't the Imperial Dining Room make stewed quail with pearl rice today? I remember Shilan's favorite food, so let's go to Yikun Palace." The emperor rubbed the military newspaper in his hand, lowered his eyes and said in a low voice.

Su Peisheng hurriedly smiled and said: "It's a coincidence that the people from Yikun Palace have just come to invite you." Coincidentally, it was he who said that Zhou Ninghai would come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to invite the emperor every day anyway, saying New Year's Concubine Day Looking forward to the emperor's favor, Su Peisheng just listened to the emperor's tone of reply.

The emperor smiled calmly: "It seems that I and her are in the same mind."

When the concubine Nian got the news, she was so happy that she burst into tears.

I feel sorry for the beautiful woman crying, not to mention that the emperor came here on a whim. As soon as he heard the soft voice of the concubine Nian, his heart softened: "Okay, don't cry, I will cry that day!" It’s true that the words are a little heavy, don’t take it to heart.” He stretched out his hand to greet the concubine, walked to the table and sat down, “The Jiang brothers have already obeyed the law, they are eager for quick success, you are just deceived by the two of them, when the leader It's just a crime of negligence." In a few words, the responsibility of the concubine Nian was completely pushed away.

"Your majesty..." Nian concubine leaned into the emperor's arms with tears in her eyes, soft as if she was boneless, "My concubine couldn't bear to see the emperor worrying about the epidemic every day, so I read medical books every day, just hoping to do my best. Li Li, after hearing Jiangcheng Jiangshen said that the prescription for curing the epidemic had a good idea, she hurriedly went to see the emperor." She sobbed and cried, "The concubine doesn't know medicine, but what she listens to, that's all. The emperor severely punished the concubine that day, the concubine...the concubine was really wronged."

Concubine Nian has practiced many times in private, and it is easy to grasp this delicate appearance, and Songzhi is adding fuel and jealousy to the side, which makes the emperor feel distressed and comforted.

"The concubine looks forward to the emperor's coming every day, and prepares a table of good dishes every day. Today, I can finally meet the emperor." Concubine Nian wiped away her tears, no makeup on her face. Get weaker, "Pearl stewed with abalone, ham stewed with fish maw, shark skin chicken soup, and fresh mushroom cabbage heart, all are the emperor's favorite food on weekdays."

"These dishes are the most labor-intensive. You must have woken up in the middle of the night to watch them cook." The emperor took the chicken soup that the concubine Nian personally scooped up, and said.

"The concubines have to watch what the emperor eats." Concubine Nian got up and sat down opposite the emperor.

The emperor raised a shallow smile: "I really can't bear to have you bother so much about eating a meal."

"I will do my best for the emperor, and my concubine will love it." Concubine Nian looked at the emperor affectionately.

The emperor nodded, took a sip of the chicken soup, and slowly said: "That day I punished you out of anger. Thinking about it later, this punishment was really heavy. Fortunately, you have kept your own during this time. I heard from the queen that you have I often recite scriptures and copy books in Yikun Palace. I think I have already reflected on it. Just in time, the good news came in this morning. Your nephew is rich and worthy of the holy grace. He put down the Zhuozishan rebellion for me. During this period of time, Nian Gengyao often asked if you were well, so he planned to resume your position. What do you think?"

Nian concubine bit her lower lip slightly, and said softly: "The concubine knows that she is guilty, and the emperor deposed him as a punishment. The concubine should follow the emperor's will and think about it carefully. Now that the empress dowager's phoenix body has not healed, the concubine often asks Song Zhi to take it. Copying the Buddhist scriptures and going to Baohua Hall to pray for the Empress Dowager is also a filial piety." Seeing the emperor nodding at her, Fu continued, "Nianfu won the first battle, it is because of his brother's good teaching, and even more so, the emperor's ability to employ people well. , The concubine has never put all her heart into it, so she dare not ask the emperor to restore her status as a concubine." She looked at the emperor with a choked face, "The concubine only asks the emperor not to neglect the concubine, even the concubine with honorable status can be disregarded. "

The emperor's heart was touched for a moment, and his hard heart softened at this moment: "It's not only for the sake of getting rich, but also for my own selfishness." He put down the soup bowl in his hand, "Yesterday, I went to Concubine Qi's palace to listen to her words. I'm not happy with all the cynicism and sarcasm at you. You've always been proud, but this time you've really been wronged."

Nian concubine cried again while twisting her handkerchief.

After the emperor left, Songzhi cleaned up the mess and asked in a low voice: "Why didn't your empress mention the matter of asking for a reward for the second young master in front of the emperor? The general sent a message in advance to say so."

Concubine Nian sighed deeply: "This palace is too busy to take care of itself now, it's better not to interfere too much in the affairs of the previous court. The emperor rarely came to this palace today, and he was relieved to regain his position in this palace. Before the imperial decree comes down, I’d better be more careful.” Because of what she said today, she was physically and mentally exhausted for several days, and she cried too much just now, and she was a little exhausted, so she quickly threw away the handkerchief stained with onion water , "Go and tell Cao Guiren that if the palace is successfully restored, I will not forget her contribution today."

What I said to the emperor today, every word has been carefully considered in advance, otherwise how could it be so smooth.

Concubine Nian calmed down, got up and took a nap in the room, and did not forget to explain: "Let Zhou Nan come and talk later later."

"Yes." Song Zhi bowed down and saluted.

"Nian Gengyao has a big appetite, so he actually wanted to get a title for the young man." The emperor returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and seeing that the first memorial on the case belonged to Nian Gengyao, he casually took it over and looked it over. Seeing this, he laughed angrily, "His eldest son Nian Xi has inherited the title of Viscount, and now he is here to ask for rewards for his second son."

Even though he said so, he didn't refute the book immediately, he hesitated for a long time before writing a reply, and rewarded Nian Gengyao with a first-class male world position, which was inherited by Nianfu.After finishing writing, the emperor threw the vermilion pen aside and raised his palm to cover his eyes.

Not yet.

"Your Majesty?" Su Peisheng came in carrying a food box, and called out in a low voice, "Mr. Rong's newly made Jasper Soup and Snowflake Cake, thinking that the Emperor likes to eat them, I specially asked someone to bring them over."

Hearing that it was delivered by An Lingrong, the emperor managed to cheer up and took two bites.

Seeing that the Biyu Tang had bottomed out, Su Peisheng heard the emperor speak slowly: "Speak to the Sixth Palace, the concubine will be a concubine in the next year, and her title will remain the same."

Hearing the hidden displeasure in the emperor's voice, Su Peisheng's heart skipped a beat, he bowed his head deeply, and was about to step back, when suddenly he heard the emperor say: "Go and call the nobleman here."

"Whoo."

Concubine Hua, who was restored by the emperor's imperial decree, has returned to her previous flamboyant style. She first showed off in front of the queen during the morning parade, and regained the place she had lost before in one go. Ling Rong and the nobleman of Fucha sneered, saying, "Conceiving a child is like carrying a gold ingot. I wish I could have my eyeballs hanging on my stomach."

An Lingrong didn't take it seriously, but the nobleman Fucha was so angry that he took advantage of his physical discomfort to snatch someone from Yikun Palace.

"How is it so good, nausea and chest tightness? Isn't the fetal image stable?" The emperor frowned and looked at the nobleman Fucha, then asked the imperial physician how he was doing.

Zhou Nan stood up and replied after taking the pulse: "Report to the emperor, it's okay, the young master just eats too much food to support her chest, so she feels uncomfortable in her chest, as long as the dinner is light." He bowed and lowered his head, holding back smile.

The emperor was helpless for a while: "Why are you holding on to yourself, or really uncomfortable, and you can't tell the difference."

"Then the concubine is just afraid." How could the nobleman of Fucha dare to say that he deliberately fed up to find trouble, so he could only speak softly and act coquettishly.

"Forget it, you lie down first, I have something else to do, and I'll come to see you at night." The emperor felt tired, so he dealt with it casually. Come back and see and you will come."

The nobles of Fucha couldn't keep the emperor, so they could only watch him leave.

"Your Majesty is auspicious!" Chun Chang walked in from the outside, bumped into the Emperor, and got up after a playful salute, "Is the Emperor also visiting sister Fucha? She vomited badly for the first two months Well, it's been better for a while."

The emperor slightly relaxed his brows and eyes, and nodded. He seemed to understand why Fucha's nobleman ate too much, and suddenly he cared less about her.Instead, he asked Chun Changzai, "Why did you come here? You were so bouncing around, you accidentally bumped into the nobleman's child."

"No way, my concubine should be careful." Chunchang said with a bright smile, pointing to the Shu brocade held by Suyun behind him, "Concubine likes children, so it's better to make an appointment early to be a concubine. No, the empress has just rewarded my concubine with a piece of Shu brocade, and this concubine borrowed flowers to present Buddha to Sister Fucha, so it is considered a betrothal gift for my concubine."

The emperor couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard Chun Chang's words like a little adult, and left after making a few jokes.

The nobleman of Fucha heard it from inside, and hurriedly greeted Chun Changzai to come in, and said with a smile, "Fortunately, you came and explained a few things for me, otherwise the emperor would have thought I was greedy and overeating."

"My mother said that women have different bosoms. Some are like Sister Rong, and some are like Sister Rong. It's normal." Chun Chang asked Suyun to bring up the Shu Brocade, "Sister Fucha, look at it." Look, how do you like the color? This year, the empress got two brocades from Shu brocade that were presented as a tribute. She saw that the color of this brocade was so bright that it might not be suitable for her, so she gave it to me. I don’t pay much attention to my clothes. I just wanted to give it to my sister."

The Shu brocade is of course the best, with its crisp, tender and delicate colors, and the pattern woven with silver threads, it is instantly beautiful.

"Since that's the case, I'll accept it." The nobleman Fucha saw that he really liked it, so he accepted it with a smile, "Brother Six will not be able to catch up with the hundred-day banquet, and when the new clothes are cut, next month's reward The Flower Conference may be able to be worn on the body in a hurry."

"Yeah." Chun Chang nodded.

Leaving Yanxi Palace, Chun Changzai went to Chunxi Palace again, where An Lingrong was basking in the sun on a recliner in the yard.

"Chun'er is here." An Lingrong covered his face with a fan and opened his eyes. When Chun Chang approached, he suddenly wrinkled his nose and covered his mouth and nose with some nausea, "Chun'er, you have smoke on your body today. What kind of fragrance is it, why is it so strange?"

Chunchang raised his sleeves and sniffed, "No."

But An Lingrong kept retching, and his face turned pale in the blink of an eye, so he hurriedly asked Dill to take Chun Changzai to change his clothes, which would make him feel better.

"Recently, my lord is very sensitive to smells. I think it's because Chunchang accidentally got some pollen on the road." Fen Ruo carefully checked Chunchang's changed clothes, and found nothing wrong. Thinking of An Lingrong's recent Symptoms, only this guess.

"No wonder my sister hasn't gone out these few days." Chunchang nodded understandingly, "Then the next day, will my sister not be able to go to Sixth Brother's hundred-day banquet? I heard that the empress has prepared a lot of delicacies. It's a pity No, my sister can't taste it."

Anling couldn't help laughing: "Little greedy cat, do you think everyone is like you, thinking about eating all day long?" She changed into a comfortable position and sat down, "It's just right, why don't you eat my share for me? , the only thing is, I can’t support my stomach.”

"Thank you sister." Chun Chang stretched his head over with a smile, rubbed An Lingrong's shoulders, and then took out a pair of silver bracelets, "This is the silver bracelet I wore when I was a child. It was made by my grandfather. Yes, give it to my sister's child, you can call me your aunt in the future." She stretched out her hand, carefully touched An Lingrong's pregnant belly twice, and smiled sweetly, "Baby, when you come out, Call me Auntie."

"I don't know how many betrothal gifts you have to give out throughout the year. If you are so eager to be an aunt, you are afraid that no one will call you a mother in the future?" An Lingrong accepted the gift and said with a smile, "Wait for Sister Wan and Sister Mei. After you have a child, you have to prepare to give the engagement gift again, if your small treasury is emptied, then don't cry!"

Chun Chang wrinkled his nose and smiled and said no.

And in the Queen's Palace, they are busy preparing for Sixth Brother's hundred-day banquet. Because of the epidemic situation, Sixth Brother's three-year wash and full moon banquet are not held. It is hard to wait until the hundredth day. The Queen is working hard. Let's have a good time.

There are three more changes today, which are supplementary rewards in June
