Poor children

Chapter 208

一
"Are you Xia Jinzhi?" Zhihui raised her head and looked at her. Although the Xia Jinzhi in front of her was not a beauty, she was well-born and had the aristocratic aura of a noble lady.

"To the Queen, my daughter is Xia Jinzhi," Xia Jinzhi replied
Pao'er didn't say anything, just watched quietly. Everyone said that Miss Xia's temper was bad and domineering, but she concealed it very well at this moment, and she looked even more gentle and dignified. Pao'er also knew that Zhihui would not What made her stay so easily was just because of the singing last time. Zhihui's dearest nanny didn't kick her out. It seemed that her father had already spent enough money. I'm afraid it wouldn't be easy for Zhihui to kick her out.

"Why are you dressed so plainly? It is a happy occasion for His Majesty to choose a concubine. You are almost completely dressed in white. Are you here to get into trouble with us?" Zhihui asked.

"If the Empress asked this, she would be wronging my daughter. Originally, it was a happy event for Your Majesty to choose a concubine, but I heard that Your Majesty loves Her Royal Highness the Queen of Ruihua Hall in the northwest, just because Her Royal Highness the Queen is elegant, noble, and neither flattering nor vulgar. Since the Queen Your Highness can set an example for the harem, and my daughter naturally wants to imitate it, but she didn’t learn it well and made the Queen laugh." Xia Jinzhi replied
Xia Jinzhi's words were well answered. If Zhihui said that her Sujing was not good, that was to say that poor children were not good, which was against the will of heaven. She could not find fault with her dress, and at the same time, she took photos of poor children. At this moment, she was feeling proud of her own words.

Pao'er held the tea and looked at her slightly. The proud look on her face had put all her little thoughts on it. Pao'er thought to himself, this is also a person without a city, or does she have one? Good father, otherwise I'm afraid he would have been kicked out long ago.
"What a clever mouth. Let me tell you something, and you brought up your sister. Do you think you can win over your sister just because you are dressed in plain clothes?" Zhihui wanted to make the pauper feel dissatisfied with her.
The poor boy didn't speak, he just drank tea by himself, while Concubine Yu quietly observed the poor boy while sitting at the side, but couldn't tell what she was thinking

"When it comes to competing for favor, my little girl doesn't have that ability. Her Royal Highness the Queen is naturally beautiful, intelligent, and virtuous. My little girl only imitates her out of admiration. How can I compete with the sun and the moon? I'm just imitating others. That's all, please don't laugh at me, please." Xia Jinzhi didn't panic at such a command and could handle it with ease.
At this time, the poor child felt that she had underestimated her. Although this girl was not worried, she still had a good brain and eloquence. As for her temper, she could see a little now. After all, she dared to argue with Zhihui without being timid.

Seeing that Zhihui couldn't talk about her, she said to the pauper, "This Xia Jinzhi has sharp teeth and a sharp mouth. I don't think it is suitable to stay in the palace. He is full of lies all day long, and I might spoil the atmosphere in the palace."

The pauper then put down the tea bowl in his hand and said leisurely, "I think Miss Xia's family is really good-natured. Even though she is a bit too sharp-tongued, it's not a big problem. You just need to be more careful when speaking in the palace in the future."

Hearing that the pauper said this and stayed, Xia Jinzhi thanked him with a smile.
Although Zhihui was dissatisfied, she had settled down as a pauper, and she had no choice but to give her this face. She thought in her heart: if she keeps her in the palace first, she will live in the palace worse than death in the future.

"Queen, there is only one left, she is Yan Yao, the eldest daughter of Mr. Yan from the Ministry of Punishment." Mammy reminded her when she saw Zhihui sitting there in a daze.
The pauper had also seen that girl a long time ago. He didn't call her or bother her for a long time. He just stood there, with a very tall and straight posture and a decent appearance. In her impression, Mr. Yan from the Punishment Department should be She is a member of the Communist Party of China, and there is nothing special about her. This girl is just like her father, the kind of person who seems to be the least noticeable.

At this time, because Xia Jinzhi choked her a few words and did not push her out as she wished, Zhihui felt unhappy. When she heard that there was only one left, she lost the mood to read any more and just said, "Stay here." "Come on, stay, we'll be here today. I'm tired, so I won't accompany you." After saying that, he got up and went back to rest.
Seeing that Zhihui was gone, the nanny went to ask the poor children where Miss Xia and Miss Yan lived. Go live in Yongde Palace." Poor Er stood up and prepared to go back to the palace. After all, she spent a whole day here, and her current physical condition is really enough for her.

In the early morning of the next day, in addition to Yu Qingran, who had long been granted the title of concubine and lived in Chaohua Palace, Li Wanyun and Xia Jinzhi were also granted the title of concubine, while Cheng Ruolan, Xiao Baihe and Yan Yao were granted the title of noble. The originally vacant The palace is now mostly occupied, and the originally deserted harem is also becoming lively.

Now that there are more people, the poor boy doesn't go out much. He only spends time in his yard doing flowers and plants, accompanying Hong Yue, reading some books, or going to the back to chat with his eldest aunt. Several concubines came over to say hello, and the poor man felt that they had to go to Changle Palace to say hello again, and then they had to come all the way to him. The whole morning passed like this, and he was so quiet, so he asked them to just come here. Just go to Changle Palace to say hello. You don't have to come to her every day. After that, Ruihua Palace became quiet. Maybe it was because other people were too lively. It seemed that Paoer's place was getting quieter and quieter. sense of presence

And Zhihui was busy dealing with those women and didn't care enough to only target the poor boy, which actually made the poor boy feel a lot more relaxed.

At night, chaos suddenly broke out in Changle Palace. Zhihui, who would not be full term until next month, suddenly gave birth prematurely. She was usually irritable and had qi and blood stagnation, which was really dangerous. At this time, the imperial doctor in the palace and the famous doctors outside the palace were... Most of them are in Changle Palace

Pao'er is also a queen. When he heard about this, he immediately changed his clothes and rushed to Changle Palace. Tianxing also arrived at Changle Palace earlier. At this time, he was anxious outside Zhihui's dormitory. When Pao'er saw him, he comforted Tianxing a few words.

He only heard Zhihui screaming in the dormitory. He knew some medical skills, so he hurriedly went in to visit. He saw that Zhihui's face was pale and her blood was bleeding, but she did not give birth to a fetus. The doctors were even more busy and sweating. But the poor boy felt that something was wrong. Zhihui usually ate the best food. No matter how he was raised, how could he have symptoms of blood deficiency? Even if he was born prematurely, he was only one month away from reaching full term. Why? So much bleeding?
The pauper stopped talking. All the famous doctors were here, and they were naturally much better than her. So she quietly exited, called the maid serving Zhihui to ask questions, and then checked on Zhihui that night. However, he didn’t see anything wrong with his diet. When he was about to leave, he happened to see Zhihui taking a bath.
"Why is the water your master bathes in this color?" Paoer asked when he saw the red water in Zhihui's bathtub glowing with golden light.

"This is water boiled with roses and osmanthus, so it is this color," the girl replied

Pao'er walked closer to the bathtub and took a closer look. She saw that there were still many roses and osmanthus flowers floating in the water. They looked the same, but she found a few slender red stamens inside, which were obviously for promoting blood circulation. Saffron
