Chapter 14 Pregnancy

In the blink of an eye, it entered the middle of May, and the weather gradually became hotter. Even the palace servants changed into thinner spring shirts.During this period, the emperor passed all the new concubines who entered the palace to Minglu.But there is one exception, that is Feng Zhihe, this lady Feng actually said bad things about everyone in the harem when she was serving the bed, and even sued the queen for a long time.When Xie Xiao heard the previous words, she originally wanted to be more tolerant to her because her brother was still loyal and capable, until she actually took the queen's eye drops, even Xie Xiao was shocked by her stupidity, and directly called They sent her back.When the queen heard about it, she directly issued a decree, punishing her for three months and half a year's salary.

Now Feng Zhihe suddenly became the laughing stock of the whole palace, Shunv Feng grounded her feet in her own residence, and also heard some outside talk, she threw all the things in the room angrily.

Gu Panfu's life is getting more and more leisurely. She greets the queen every day and can come back to sleep. She spends the rest of the time by herself.Gu Panfu found a few travel notes to read, and got some interest from them, so she asked Hanlu to find some more.The emperor didn't know where he knew about it, so he sent a few copies over.Gu Panfu was flattered, so in the evening, she went to Taichen Palace to thank her, and she stayed there logically.

Gu Panfu found that Xie Xiao was a very interesting person, and when he was with concubines, he didn't stick to those rigid rules.The way he looks at you is always gentle and affectionate, but when you want to explore more, there is nothing but peace and no emotion below.Gu Panfu didn't care either, she didn't come to fall in love with the emperor, what did she want his sincerity to do.If she is dissatisfied at this stage, it is probably because the weather is getting hotter and she is not heat-resistant.But the ice in her allowance is limited, and the rest has to be bought by herself.It would be great if she could buy it, but if the House of Internal Affairs had to cook it on a hot stove, even if she gave money, she wouldn't get much.

The next day, when I went to pay my respects to the queen, Gu Panfu was a little drowsy, and Xie Xiao tossed so hard last night that she couldn't bear it.Xie Xiao was "considerate" and wanted to ask for leave for her, but she declined. She is not a precious concubine, so it's okay to ask for leave as soon as she goes to bed. She has no plans to offend the queen yet.

Just when Gu Panfu was going to meet the Duke of Zhou, Song Yunu, who was seated at the bottom, suddenly stood up, stroking her belly with happiness and gentleness, and saluted the queen: "My lady, the concubine seems to be pregnant. I would like to invite you The empress asked an imperial doctor to check the pulse for the concubine."

As soon as these words came out, there was a moment of silence in Fengyi Palace.The queen came to her senses first, and said with a smile on her face: "Zi Lan, you go and invite the Bai Court of the Supreme Hospital to judge in person."

During the period of waiting for the judgment from the White House, the concubines all came back to their senses, and put on a decent smile on their faces again, but there was a little more stiffness in the smile.Gu Panfu's drowsiness was also gone, and she looked at Song Yunu's stomach with some surprise. Didn't she serve her bed last month?

After a while, the judge from the White Court came, and he checked the pulse repeatedly: "I want to report to the Empress, Song Yunu is indeed two months pregnant."

"Okay, reward." The queen asked someone to put a cushion for Song Yunu, and asked someone to report to Taichen Palace.He said to Song Yunu gently and kindly: "This is the emperor's first child since he ascended the throne. You have to take good care of Song Yunu, and I will take care of you."

These words were like a reminder, and everyone had different expressions on their faces.Song Yunu's face paled slightly, and she exerted a little force on the hand holding the handkerchief, but she had to get up and thank her: "My concubine, thank you empress."

Gu Panfu hid the emotion in her eyes by drinking tea, the harem was about to become lively again.When she put down the teacup, she inadvertently caught sight of Precious Concubine's expression, and saw Precious Concubine pursing her lips tightly, with a hint of anger in her eyes.

Song Yunv frowned slightly all the way back to her residence, her grand maid Kidney gently kneaded her shoulders, and asked, "Master, why bother? Why don't you wait for the emperor's heir to be safe after three months?" Are we telling the empress?" Kidou has been with Song Yunv since the Qiandi, and with the support of the two of them till now, she naturally speaks boldly.

Song Yunu leaned on the soft bed tiredly, and her tone was not very good, "In a few days, it will be the day to ask for Ping'an's pulse. Last time, I used money to gag. How much money can I give this time?"

Kidney Dou fell silent, she couldn't be more clear about her master's situation.Song Yunu was just a court lady serving the prince's personnel affairs at that time, and she was even one year older than Xie Xiao.Because she was better looking than another court lady, she was left as a concubine.Entering the palace to have a decent position is already regarded as a great grace of the emperor.Now, her already thin love is getting less and less, having this child is really a surprise, how could she not want to keep this child?
It's just that her foundation is too shallow, and it's too difficult to rely on herself.Song Yunu wanted to surrender to the queen and begged the queen to keep the child.But she did not inform the queen in advance, but chose to say it when she greeted her.So being warned by the queen with the words of the emperor's first child after ascending the throne, Song Yunu thought nervously that the queen seemed unsafe, and she had to think of a way.

Song Yunu was pregnant, so the whole palace paid attention to it.In the afternoon, the emperor also sent a reward, although it was rewarded according to the quota, there was nothing special about it.But the precious concubine who was still angry was coughing and couldn't breathe.

"She's lucky." The precious concubine drank the pear soup and calmed down, stroking her stomach with her right hand, her eyes turned red unconsciously.The nurse in charge who served her hurriedly stepped forward and advised, "Master, don't be sad. As long as the master takes good care of her, she will definitely be pregnant." In fact, there is no serious problem with the precious concubine, it is just that she is weak.During the miscarriage in Qian Mansion, Precious Concubine was anxious and obsessed with pets and emotional, so she didn't take care of her well.So for so many years, I have never been pregnant again.

"Mommy, but I have followed the imperial doctor's instructions to take good supplements, and I have taken so many prescriptions, why are they still useless?" Precious concubine firmly grasped the hand of the nurse in charge, tears were already rolling in her eyes.She doesn't envy anyone in the palace who is favored, only the heir, obviously she is the most favored person in the palace, why there is no sign of pregnancy at all.She regretted her carelessness more than once, trusting that bitch Zhao Jiarong so easily that she harmed her child.But that bitch gave birth to the prince safely, and every time she thinks about it, she seems to be burning with anger, wishing to peel off that bitch's skin.

Not only that, but the precious concubine also felt that given the emperor's love for her, it was not a problem to give her the position of nine concubines.In the end, only the noble concubine was given, which was only one step away from the nine concubines.At first, she complained a little, but the emperor explained to her personally, saying that her family background is not good, so she can't be given too high a position all at once.The precious concubine believed it at first, but as time got longer, she felt that in addition to her family background, it was also because of her children, even if she had a princess.

The precious concubine was sobbing, and the nurse in charge couldn't persuade her.Zhu'er, the court lady who was standing at the side, moved her eyes slightly, walked to the center of the room and knelt down: "Master, please take care of yourself. This servant has a stupid idea, but I don't know whether to say it or not."

The nanny in charge turned her head, she had some bad premonition, and wanted to stop Pearl from speaking.But it was too late, Precious Concubine wiped away her tears with a handkerchief, looked at Zhu'er and said: "Stupid or not, let's listen first, if you can relieve my worries, you will definitely be rewarded."

Zhu'er kowtowed: "The servant thinks that the master can adopt Song Yunu's child."

Precious concubine frowned when she heard this, it's not that she hadn't thought about it.In order to elevate the backgrounds of princes and princesses, it is actually very common for high-ranking concubines in the palace to adopt the children of low-ranking concubines. If she asks, the emperor will agree.It's just that what she has always wanted is her and the emperor's own child, and that is the crystallization of their love.What are other people's children?

Precious concubine was a little hesitant, she hadn't been pregnant for many years, and she watched the new couple enter the palace year after year.Will the emperor still treat her as before?If she doesn't have any children by her side, will she end up old and decrepit and lonely in the end?

Seeing her hesitation, Zhuer understood that there was something to be said for this matter.If she could accomplish this, she would be able to replace the nurse in charge as the most trusted person of Precious Concubine. "Master, I heard that there is a folk saying that a woman who has not conceived for a long time raises a child, and this child can attract other children, and she can conceive herself soon." Zhu'er looked at the precious concubine's face and continued. : "Master, you can adopt the child first, and don't record it under your own name. When you have your own child, you can also return Song Yunu's child."

These words are full of loopholes, if the heirs in the palace let them make random arrangements, wouldn't it be a mess.The nurse in charge immediately interrupted Zhu'er's words, and reprimanded her severely: "Nonsense!" Then she turned to precious concubine and said, "Master, this is not a trivial matter, you are still thinking about it, if the child is adopted, You are the adoptive mother. The rules in the palace cannot be wrong, even the emperor will not allow you to send the child back."

Precious concubine naturally understands that if she adopts her, she will have to keep her forever, but she has tried all the methods, praying to gods and worshiping Buddha, taking tonics and folk remedies, but nothing works.Zhu'er's words moved her a little bit, what if, what if it would be useful this time.She pointed at Zhu'er: "Go, go and send some tonics to Song Yunu, test her a few words, and don't say anything else."

Zhu'er took the order and left. The precious concubine looked at the nanny's expression of hesitating to speak, and said: "I understand what the nanny said, and I have heard what Zhuer said before. Besides, I am not here. If you can’t afford to raise a child, just think of me as a way out for yourself.”

"But Song Yunu is the biological mother of the emperor's heir after all." The nurse in charge said with a little worry.

"Heh, let her raise the fetus first." The precious concubine returned to her previous appearance.He pretended to cough twice, but he was thinking about how to tell the emperor.

Gu Panfu is admiring the flowers in the imperial garden. Today is sunny and warm.The flowers in the imperial garden are blooming more and more prosperously, each one is delicate and charming.

Hanlu led people to set up refreshments in a pavilion not far away, while Hanrui came back and said, "Master, the congratulatory gifts have already been sent, and they were received by Kidou who was in front of Yunu Song, saying that Yunu Song was asleep. Tell Song Yunu immediately when she wakes up."

"It's okay, just be courteous."

"Master, don't worry, you will definitely have an emperor's heir in the future." Hanrui said hesitantly, fearing that Song Yunu's pregnancy would make the master anxious.

"Huh? Silly girl, how long have I only been in the palace, why are you in a hurry." Gu Panfu looked at Hanrui with some amusement, thought of something, and ordered seriously, "During this time, those who told us should be careful, you still have Sister Hanluma must take good care of her family, and don't let someone with a heart take advantage of her loopholes."

"Yes, the slave has written it down."
