Queen Xiaoxi

Chapter 12 Daily life in Changchun Palace

"Higher, higher, fly higher." Wanxian stood in the small garden of Changchun Palace and instructed the maids to fly the kite.

A butterfly-shaped kite was flown five feet high in the hands of the palace maid.Wanxian didn't think it was high enough, so she waved her handkerchief and instructed the palace maid flying the kite to fly it higher.

There were five or six palace maids around to guard him.

"My little master, if you go higher, you might be afraid that the kite will fly away." The palace maid who was flying the kite reported back.

"My lord, please take a rest. The sun is getting louder. Madam An will ask you to go over and have a cup of tea and some snacks." Aunt Yun walked from the pavilion to Wanxian and said.

Upon hearing this, Wanxian looked into the pavilion and saw An Bin sitting in the pavilion waving to her.

Wanxian stepped on the bottom of the flowerpot and walked into the pavilion.

An Bin and Bu Guiren were sitting in the pavilion. After Wan Xian made a Wanfu salute, she sat on the right side of An Bin.

"Hurry up and have a cup of tea. It's already June and I'm seriously suffering from the heat." An Bin looked at the sweat dripping from Wanxian's cheek and gently wiped it away with a handkerchief and said with concern.

"Concubine, I know." Wanxian replied, picked up the teacup, drank a cup of tea, picked up the Poria Cake next to it, and started using it.

"Let's play for a while longer and then go back. The sun is getting hot, so we should go back early." Seeing Wanxian eating snacks, An Bin said with a motherly smile.

"Yes." Wanxian replied with a smile, then walked out of the pavilion and walked towards the maids, shouting: "Let the kite fly higher."

An Bin watched Wanxian walk out of the pavilion with joy.

Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, it has been almost three months since Wanxian entered the palace.

In the past three months, Wanxian has not been summoned once, and Wanxian is not upset.

I don't know how much more comfortable I feel today than when I was at home, and I even developed a mother-daughter relationship with An Bin.

"I finally understand why the empress insists that the Ministry of Internal Affairs put Guarjia's usual residence in the Changchun Palace. This Changchun Palace has not been so lively for a long time." Looking at the bustle outside the pavilion, Bu Guiren felt that he could not help himself. I feel younger.

"At that time, I just felt that Changchun Palace was lifeless. Would it be better if a new person came in? That's when I came up with the idea. Now that I think about it, it's lucky that I had the idea, otherwise we would still be living in the Buddhist hall reciting scriptures." An Bin watched Wanxian playing outside the pavilion and felt glad for her decision. "It's just that my wife and concubine are a little worried!" Bu Guiren was afraid to say it out loud.

"There is no need to be secretive in this palace. You can say whatever you want." Concubine An didn't like it when someone looked at her in front of her.

"Your Majesty, you are not a concubine. It has been three months since Young Master Wanxian entered the palace, and Long Live Lord has not summoned her even once. Those two concubines have entered the Qianqing Palace several times. Do you want to pay some respects? Office." Bu Guiren also spoke for Wanxian's sake.

"What's the rush? Wanxian is still young. It's still too late to wait any longer. It's better to recuperate first." An Bin said calmly.

"I asked the imperial physician to check my pulse the other day. The imperial physician said that although I looked fine on the outside, I was still weak on the inside and prescribed a lot of medicine.

"Empress, it's not that concubines talk too much. It's just that Long Live Master is getting older now and doesn't like to enter the harem. Most of the concubines who enter the harem are concubines under the banner of the Han army. If you don't get some favors while you are young and have an heir, How will you live your life in the future? It doesn't matter if you have too much favor in the palace now. Heirs are the foundation of your life." Bu Guiren persuaded with earnest words.

"What you said is not unreasonable. It's just that Wanxian's body has not been fully restored, and Wanzai's body and bones are not so good." An Bin thought about Bu Guiren's words carefully, and it made sense.

"Concubine, I have carefully thought about the issue of the heir, so don't be in a hurry. The urgent thing is to let the long live master know that there is this person, and then slowly call him a few times. Take care of your body first, and the matter of the heir will naturally fall into place. Last year, the concubine Has Niu Gulu given birth to a daughter?" Bu Guiren carefully told An Bin what he had been thinking about for a long time.

"Empress, think about it carefully. According to the rules in the palace, only the queen who takes the throne can raise an heir. What is the difference between raising a child in your name and raising a child in Wanxian's name? If you have a child, it doesn't matter whether he is an elder brother or a princess. Call you concubine, concubine. When children cry, our Changchun Palace will truly be alive." Bu Guiren consoled her.

Life in this palace is really difficult. If there is a child crying and fussing, it will be really lively. No matter how many new people are brought into the palace, it will be useless. After a few years, there will be no smiling faces.

I only see new people smiling but old people crying.

This is Bu Gui's experience after spending more than twenty years in this deep palace.

There was still hope for his princess when she was in the palace, but after she got married, she couldn't even see her in person.

He was so shameless that he never went with Long Live when he was patrolling outside the Great Wall. The last time he saw his daughter was when she was married.

Thinking of this, Bu Guiren sincerely hoped that Wanxian would be favored so that she could have a son and a half daughters.Have a good time spending this long night.

"What you said makes sense. I want to go back to the palace and think things over carefully." Concubine An was obviously tempted by what Bu Guiren said and had an idea.
