Chapter 190 Everyone faints together!

"Sister Concubine Shu, it's so early."

She was supported by Qinghuan and walked to Concubine Shu. She leaned down to greet him, but Concubine Shu took the first step and interrupted her with a warm voice.
"Sit down quickly, I feel scared just looking at your belly."

In the past few days, preparing for the palace banquet with Concubine Shu made the two of them less polite and more familiar.
So she didn't refuse much, turned around and sat directly on the seat that belonged to her on the side.

Taking the round fan from Qing Huan's hand, he shook it gently, "This summer seems to be longer than before."

"It's not long, it's just that your body can't stand the heat,"

Concubine Shu waved away a eunuch who came to report something, and sat down next to her.

"Don't worry, I've asked people to place ice in the four corners of the palace, and there are maids and eunuchs who will fan you. It will be cool after a while."

"Thank you, Sister Shu Fei, for taking the trouble," she said meaningfully with a smile and a look:

"The Queen will be here later. She must be very happy to see the care taken in organizing the palace banquet."

"I don't want to please the Queen, I just want to make no mistakes." Concubine Shu looked at her and smiled.

"The Queen has arrived."

Yes, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao has arrived,

The two of them hurriedly frowned and stood up to greet them.

Ms. Lin was dressed in a red phoenix robe and slowly entered the main hall, supported by Bai Zhi.

"Sisters don't need to be polite,"

"Every step of the way, the decorations in the Hall of Supreme Harmony have not been left unattended. It can be seen that you have put a lot of thought into it, and it's a big thank you to my two sisters."

Gu Wanyu and Concubine Shu looked at each other and said in unison: "I don't dare, this is a matter between ministers and concubines."

"Why can't I see Wang Guifei's sister?"

"I just sent someone to listen to Yuxuan's biography, and they must be on their way here now," said Concubine Shu.

"Yeah." Ms. Lin nodded slightly.
She just asked casually and didn't really care about Wang Gui's concubine. After getting the answer, she threw it away.

He turned around and entered the phoenix seat at the top, and waved his hand for her to sit down.
"Speaking of it, we should have gone to Shoukang Palace to welcome our mother. However, our mother has always been considerate of the younger generation and was worried about the physical inconvenience of me and Concubine Ning, so she specifically said there was no need to go to Shoukang Palace."

"The Queen Mother is kind and kind, which is a blessing to my concubines and others."

While chatting, Wang Gui's concubine also hurried over. Seeing that the queen was with them, she couldn't help but look panicked.
"My concubine's dress was stained by a blind servant on the way. It was too late to go back to the palace to freshen up. Please forgive me, the Queen."

"It's just a small matter, please take a seat." Mrs. Lin waved her hands. Although she didn't know what she was feeling in her heart, she looked very kind.

Wang Guifei breathed a sigh of relief and blessed Gu Wanyu and Concubine Shu before sitting down in the back.

Many clan members and wives also arrived one after another, and the Queen Mother only appeared after everyone had arrived.

Without Song Jingzhang around, and in front of many royal wives, the women in the harem were still in harmony.
Pushing cups and changing cups, reciting poems and composing poems, admiring flowers, chatting and laughing...

Time passes quickly,
Until the lanterns start to light up and a full moon rises from the west,

Everyone stopped talking and laughing, followed the movements of the Queen Mother and Mrs. Lin, and stood up, walking towards the sacrificial platform.
Gu Wanyu, who had been paying attention to Mrs. Lin, noticed that she had not made any movement just now, and knew that she must be planning to do something during the moon worship ceremony. He raised a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and when he stood up, he gave the green lady behind her a smile. Huan winked,

Qing Huan nodded knowingly.

Moon worship in the palace is different from that among the people.
In addition to the more elaborate and luxurious sacrifices, they are also divided into deacons, worshipers, officiants and participants.
Officials from the Ministry of Rites serve as deacons and celebrants.
Gu Wanyu and other concubines and wives of the clan participated in the sacrifice.
As for the officiant, the Queen Mother was present, it shouldn't have been Lin's turn.

However, the Queen Mother has always been cautious and bluntly stated that such important matters must be presided over by the mother of the country.

Under the gaze of everyone, the two declined each other.
Mrs. Lin then stepped forward as instructed, stood in front of everyone, took the blessing message from the deacon's hand, and read it to the moon by the light of the moon and candles.

"Tonight the sky is vast, the air is clear and the sky is bright, looking at the Toad Palace in the distance..."

Gu Wanyu's position is behind the right side of the Queen Mother.
You don't even need to raise your head, you can catch all Lin's movements with just a quick glance.
After Mrs. Lin recited the congratulations, she put the congratulations and moonlight paper into a small basin in front of the banquet, lit them, and burned them.
The next step is for the participants to offer incense one by one.

At this moment, Mrs. Lin, who was slowly getting up with the help of Bai Zhi, suddenly fell down.

"Miss!"

Almost at the same moment, this exclamation pierced the sky and attracted everyone's attention.

Bai Zhi's prepared shout was stuck in her throat, and she turned back in disbelief.
They saw Gu Wanyu, pale and unconscious, lying in Qing Huan's arms.

Bai Zhi's hand holding Lin's hand was shaking a little. When no one was paying attention, she quietly pulled the corner of Lin's clothes.

Seeing that she had no response, he could only bite the bullet and continue to act according to the original arrangement.
"Miss!"

Only then did everyone realize that not only Concubine Ning had fainted, but the Queen had also fainted.

The Queen Mother, who was looking forward to the emperor's grandson and the emperor's direct grandson wholeheartedly, also shook her hands, "Carry the queen and Concubine Ning to Shao Jingxuan next to them first, and quickly send the imperial doctor!"

When many members of the clan and wives saw this, they knew that it must have been caused by a fight in the harem, but they did not dare to say anything because of the royal family's reputation.

His eyes circled around the only remaining concubines - Concubine Shu and Concubine Wang Gui.
I quietly lamented that for even daring to interfere with such a major event as worshiping the moon, the emperor and his harem are all extraordinary people!
Then they all took their leave and left.

Such a big commotion here naturally cannot be hidden from Song Jingzhang and the princes and ministers in the front hall.
When Song Jingzhang learned that the two pregnant concubines had fainted on the platform, his face turned dark on the spot.
Many princes and ministers are not stupid either.
Realizing that something was wrong, they didn't care about anything else. They took advantage of the situation and excused themselves to worry about their wives, so they resigned and left the palace.

"Where are the Queen and Concubine Ning?"

"The Empress Dowager immediately gave up and ordered the two empresses to be sent to Shao Jingxuan first, and the imperial doctor also went there."

Song Jingzhang snorted coldly, turned around and strode towards Shao Jingxuan.

Although Shao Jingxuan is also a palace, it is actually just three rooms connected together.
Because it is located at the junction of the former dynasty and the harem, it was used as a place for concubines to meet their natal families during the reign of the late emperor.

At the same time, it is close to the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Occasionally, those who need to sober up and change clothes during the palace banquet will come here.
Therefore, not only are there no shortage of little maids and eunuchs to do errands, but the palace is also very tidy.

Gu Wanyu and Mrs. Lin were placed on the soft couches on the left and right sides of the room respectively. In front of them were several imperial doctors who came after hearing the call.

The Queen Mother clasped her hands together, holding the beads tightly, looking this way, then that way, standing in front of the hall, chanting the Buddha's name constantly.

When Song Jingzhang arrived, he saw this scene:
"Mother." He called softly.

"The emperor is here!" The Queen Mother was reminded by Aunt Ping and turned to look at Song Jingzhang.
"The Queen and Concubine Ning suddenly fainted for no reason. The imperial doctor is diagnosing their pulse. Go and have a look."
