The Golden Partridge of An Lingrong's Rebirth

"How?" Concubine Hua looked at Zhou Nan nervously.

Zhou Nan carefully felt the pulse beating under his fingers, and remained silent for a long time, until he felt that Concubine Hua was already a little anxious, then stopped his hands and slowly got up, put on a pleasant smile, and said: "Congratulations, congratulations, congratulations, there is indeed a concubine. Yue's is pregnant. To be on the safe side, the empress can call two more imperial physicians to check the pulse."

Concubine Hua was slightly taken aback, and after a daze for a while, she touched her belly and laughed out of joy: "Okay, okay, I finally got this child. Doctor Zhou, you are very skilled and capable, I only believe in you One person." Let Song Zhi bring him three large-amount silver notes, "I said before that if you can successfully conceive a dragon fetus, there will be another reward. You take the 3000 taels of silver notes first, and take care of yourself The palace recuperates your body, and you will have a good time in the future."

"Yes, thank you, ma'am." Zhou Nan pretended to be terrified and greedy to accept the bank note, then got up and left.

Song Zhi was very happy for Concubine Hua: "Your Majesty, it's hard to get an heir, so you have to tell the Emperor quickly." She smiled and coaxed Concubine Hua, "The Emperor loves Your Majesty so much, and there was a great general in the previous dynasty. The empress has a child now, no one in the harem can pass over the empress, even the empress, I'm afraid she will bow her head when she sees the empress in the future."

Concubine Hua had tears in her eyes, and she smiled very happily. It took her a while to calm down: "The emperor will return to the palace tomorrow, so don't rush to tell the emperor about this matter. It's okay to tell the emperor after the fetus is seated firmly." It's not too late." She held Songzhi's hand and walked to the couch and sat down, "If you say that the nobleman Fucha is really unlucky, let alone the epidemic in the palace just after she was pregnant, it's been four months. To be able to have a miscarriage by a cat, so many people were admiring the flowers that day, and the cat would jump at her without anyone, it's wrong!"

Concubine Hua smiled coquettishly and teased Huan Yixiang: "Fortunately, the Japanese Palace was standing far away, so they didn't bump into each other, otherwise the child would be hurt."

"Your Majesty, now that you are pregnant, shouldn't this Huanyi incense be put away and not used?" Songzhi looked at the incense burner and asked.

"Physician Zhou said that this incense is not harmful to the fetus, so it's fine to use it." Concubine Hua stood up, signaled the palace servants to open the incense burner, and sprinkled some more into it, "The emperor loves Huanyi incense for this palace. I didn’t smell it when I came here, but I’m going to be angry.”

Concubine Hua took a deep breath of Huanyixiang, showing an intoxicated and infatuated look.

In the afternoon, An Lingrong was taking a nap, and when he was sleepy, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar bright yellow sitting beside the bed, blinked and woke up for three minutes: "Your Majesty?"

The emperor was sitting on the edge of the bed squinting his eyes to rest when he heard An Lingrong's voice and woke up suddenly.

"Didn't the emperor come back tomorrow?" An Lingrong sat up, raised his hand and touched the emperor's dusty face, "I must be rushing back, the emperor should lie down and rest for a while, and this concubine will rub it for you." , loose and loose."

Without saying a word, the emperor stretched out his hand to hold An Lingrong's hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "I'm in Henan, and I heard about you and the nobleman Fucha. That day my complexion was very bad, I want to come and see you, and I can rest assured only when I see with my own eyes that you are well."

Seeing the emperor's sadness, An Lingrong smiled softly and said: "The emperor remembers my concubine, everything is fine."

The emperor touched her face, smiled briefly, and turned to talking about the nobleman Fucha, with deep sadness in his eyes: "The nobleman Fucha has no children, and I don't have a child again." He looked down. Touching the blanket on the ground, he said in a daze, "Why, none of my children can survive well."

"Don't talk nonsense, Shiro, isn't the sixth elder brother living a good life?" An Lingrong has never seen the emperor like this, so he quickly comforted him, "There are also concubines and sister Guan's children, and they will be able to live well too." Survive." She raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Sister Wan is two months pregnant, is the emperor happy?"

The emperor raised his eyes to look at An Lingrong, and saw her warm and touching smile, and his heart moved: "Well, for this, I have something to discuss with you."

An Lingrong blinked and asked him silently.

"Your Majesty Guan suffered a lot of grievances when her father was demoted a few days ago. Now that she is pregnant, I want to make up for her." The emperor said slowly, "I want to ennoble her as Guan How do you feel, my wife?"

This is a debt that has been hidden in the emperor's heart for many years.The former Empress Chunyuan was unable to give birth to her second elder brother despite all the hardships, and she passed away in dystocia. Now that Zhen Huan is pregnant, the emperor felt that God sent the child back to him again. After learning that Zhen Huan was pregnant At that moment, he had expectations for this child that were different from ordinary people.

But regarding the concubine matter, the emperor also had to consider An Lingrong's mood.

There was a lot of battle for An Bihuai to manage the salt affairs, the emperor stopped thinking about conferring An Lingrong as a concubine in Jin Dynasty, but now he wanted to make a nobleman from Guanwan as a concubine, he was afraid that An Lingrong would be spoiled.

"It's fine for the emperor to decide, what should I ask my concubine to do?" An Lingrong was a little strange, this was not the first time, the emperor always came to ask her opinion, but she didn't have enough status, how could she be the master?Could it be that if she said no, the emperor really wouldn't do it?

An Lingrong would not know that if she said no, the emperor would definitely put her wishes first.

An Lingrong thought for a while, thinking that the emperor felt that she would be jealous because of this, so he asked her specifically.So he said empathetically: "Sister Wan has indeed been wronged recently. On that day, Mrs. Cao taunted my sister Jiucheng Shengen for failing to conceive in front of Jingren Palace. My sister was so angry that she fainted. It is in danger of causing catastrophe.”

"Cao Guiren has been a bit outrageous recently." The emperor frowned, "I went to see Concubine Duan a few years ago, but Cao Guiren didn't take Wen Yi there a few times. I told her that it would be better. Concubine Duan hurt her body early. , can no longer have children, and with Wen Yi by her side, her health is getting better day by day."

An Lingrong smiled lightly, and then said: "Is the emperor going to see sister Wan later?"

"En." The emperor signaled An Lingrong to lie down, and then twisted the corner of the quilt for her, "Sleep a little longer, I will come to see you tomorrow."

"The concubine sent the emperor off respectfully." An Lingrong had become sleepy more and more recently, and now his head was sticking to the pillow, and the drowsiness swept over again.

At dusk, news came from the palace that the emperor granted Zhen Huan the title of Concubine Guan, and accompanied Concubine Jing in the canonization ceremony.

The next day, the emperor was eating oranges in the queen's palace. After taking a bite, he almost lost his teeth due to the sourness.

The queen quickly confessed: "The concubine has never tried it, so I don't know it is sour. The emperor should not eat it."

"It's so sour." The emperor didn't take his eyes off the book in his hand, but he still told the queen, "Don't throw it away in a hurry, send it to Concubine Guan, she has changed her appetite now, and she likes sour food the most."

The smile on the corner of the queen's mouth paused, and then she said, "It's a good sign for a sour girl."

"Your Majesty, King Guojun has arrived at Ninghui Hall." Su Peisheng came in and said.

The emperor hummed softly, got up, and left without looking back: "I'm going to Suiyuxuan tonight, the queen doesn't have to wait for me."

The queen looked at the back of the emperor leaving in surprise, and only had time to salute and send the emperor off in a hurry.

"Your Majesty, I'm fifteen today, the Emperor..." Jian Qiu could not help saying when he saw that the Empress was in a state of despair.

"Concubine Guan is gentle and intelligent. She is the best at understanding the sacred heart. She is just pregnant with the emperor's heir. It is inevitable to look forward to the emperor's favor. It is also right for the emperor to accompany her more." Gentlemen make excuses.

But even though she knew that this was what the emperor meant, the empress was still burning with anger. The unwillingness to be deprived of her husband and the humiliation of keeping the vacant room in the palace tore her apart. It was really hard to swallow.

In the past, she was Concubine Hua, now she is Concubine Guan, all of them are ignorant little girls!

In the Ninghui Hall, the emperor and the king of Guojun were talking about how to make Zhen Huan's birthday banquet lively and innovative.

"The day after tomorrow will be Concubine Guan's birthday, and I want to go to the Old Summer Palace to give her a good time and make her happy." The emperor said slowly with his hands behind his back, "It's just that the cancellation of the exam in Henan is only right now. Just settled down, I have a lot of things on hand, I want to find someone to spend more time on my behalf."

Guo Junwang's eyes flickered slightly, and he replied: "This idler, my brother, is the best at doing this kind of thing, don't worry, Brother Huang."

On the other side, the queen mother summoned the queen and Zhen Huan to Shoukang Palace to talk back and forth.

"Empress, it will be the day of canonization in three days. How are you preparing?" The Empress Dowager looked at the Empress, "The days are a little tight, so it's a bit rushed."

Zhen Huan hurriedly got up and said: "The concubine dare not ask for anything, everything depends on the queen mother and queen."

"Sit down, Aijia knows you are sensible." The queen mother motioned her to sit down, and then looked at the queen again, "It's just that although it is hasty, this etiquette cannot be lost."

"Emperor Niang, don't worry, the concubine is ready." The queen smiled, "It's too late for the auspicious clothes on the day of the canonization of the nobleman, so the concubine asked the Ministry of Rites to change the auspicious clothes for the concubine's concubine."

The Empress Dowager nodded, and praised the Empress a few words: "It is expedient and polite, Empress, you have done a good job."

After coming out of the Empress Dowager's Palace, the Empress returned to Jingren Palace by herself, while Zhen Huan went to Chunxi Palace.

"Rong'er, do you feel better?" Seeing that An Lingrong was still sitting on the bed, Zhen Huan couldn't help worrying, "It's been half a month, why hasn't he recovered? Didn't Imperial Doctor Zhang take good care of her?"

An Lingrong smiled: "I don't blame the imperial physician, it's because I've been lazy for a while and don't like to walk around, but the imperial physician Zhang has advised me to come down and walk more." She touched her swollen feet, "Walk for a few minutes My feet swelled up, and Aunt Fenruo's daily massage didn't help."

"Looking at you, I'm also scared." Zhen Huan rubbed her stomach, "There are still three or four months left, and it's already so difficult."

"If the child can be delivered safely, no matter how difficult it is." An Lingrong held Zhen Huan's hand and said with a smile, "The day after tomorrow is my sister's birthday, so I can't move around. Give the gift first." Turning her head, Cuiyin asked Cuiyin to get the brocade box on the second shelf, "This is a silk fan I made by myself, and it's the most useful for cooling in summer."

Inside the brocade box are two round fans with jade ribs. The surface of the fan is shiny and lustrous, without the slightest embellishment, but it exudes a sense of low-key luxury.

Zhen Huan couldn't put it down when she saw it, she took out one of the handles and fanned it, and a cool breeze came to her face: "Ronger, your hands are so skillful, you can do everything. You can cook, brew wine, embroider, and embroider." You can make rouge, you can also make silk fans, and you have ten fingers, but yours is ten times better than mine."

"It's just some gadgets to pass the morning light. My sister's hands are good at reading and writing, how can I compare them like that." Seeing Zhen Huan's liking, An Lingrong was also happy.

While talking, Ju Qing suddenly hurried in from outside.

"My lord, the emperor sent someone to pass the decree, saying that he will leave for the Old Summer Palace tomorrow. Aunt Jinxi asked the servants to come and find the little lord to see what they should bring back." Ju Qing changed into a suit of a court lady. Dress up, said to Zhen Huan.

"Okay, I see." Zhen Huan nodded, then got up to say goodbye to An Lingrong.

An Lingrong sent Zhen Huan away with a smile, and looked at Ju Qing's back from a distance, a smile flashed in his eyes.In this life, Ju Qing has become the person serving her sister, which is great.

After talking to Zhen Huan about his son, An Lingrong lost sleepiness and was about to get up when he heard the sound of a copper basin falling from the door. He couldn't help but looked up and saw cardamom hiding behind the pillar: "cardamom What's wrong?" An Lingrong got up and got out of bed, walked to Dou Kou's side, but found that her body was trembling uncontrollably.

An Lingrong was a little strange, and looked further away in the direction of Cardamom, only to see King Guojun walking into Shoukang Palace.

Frowning slightly, An Lingrong let Dou Kou enter the room.
