Nalanjiao held up her skirt and spun around in front of Jiang Qi, her smile more beautiful than the plum blossoms in the garden.

"Sister Imperial Concubine, you must be pretty and filial. This is indeed true. No wonder you always like to dress like this. My sister has learned this today."

These words were too straightforward and hurtful, but Nalanjiao didn't care. Who made her a brainless concubine? If she was too shrewd, she wouldn't be her.

The smile on Jiang Qi's lips froze for a moment, and she clenched the handkerchief quietly. Nalanjiao dared to openly mock her. How brave he was.

"Sister Jiaojiao, everyone has their own style. You look bright and beautiful, so naturally you should wear those bright clothes, while my sister is suitable for plain clothes."

Nalanjiao curled her lips, "Okay, sister is eloquent, and I won't argue with you. Now that everyone is here, let's start walking in the snow to look for plum blossoms."

"Since Sister Jiaojiao is so elegant, we will naturally accompany her to the end."

A group of concubines held the hands of the palace maids and walked all the way towards the depths of Merlin.

Concubine De and Concubine Shu walked very carefully and soon fell behind the others.

Jiang Qi stopped and waited for the two of them, with a touch of worry in his eyes.

"You two sisters, are you okay? If you are tired, please go to the pavilion to rest." Jiang Qi's tone was full of concern, which made people feel good about her.

Gu Xueyao shook her head, "I'm sorry to bother you, Concubine, but I'm fine."

Zhang Zhizhi was not as good-tempered as Gu Xueyao. She couldn't help complaining, "Sister, the noble concubine, the virtuous concubine is becoming more and more troublesome. We are still pregnant, and she behaves like this. She is Don’t look down upon us.”

Gu Xueyao took Zhang Zhizhi's hand and said, "Zhizhi, you can't say that. Concubine Xian is not in good health. She suggested coming to enjoy the flowers because she was probably feeling depressed."

"She's just selfish. She has to pull us to relieve her discomfort when she's not feeling well, right? If we fall, can she afford the responsibility?"

Zhang Zhizhi had trouble getting along with Nalanjiao when they were in Chuxiu Palace. Later, after they were both concubines, they disliked each other even more.

Especially after Nalanjiao became favored, she often made trouble for Zhang Zhizhi, and the feud between the two became deeper and deeper.

Seeing that Zhang Zhizhi could not be persuaded, Gu Xueyao had no choice but to give up.

Jiang Qi smiled and patted Zhang Zhizhi on the shoulder, "Sister Concubine Shu, you are still pregnant with a child, so you can't be angry. Concubine Xian is just like that. She doesn't mean any harm."

Jiang Qi wanted to continue to persuade her, but Zhang Zhizhi screamed and fell to the ground.

The palace maid who was following him was frightened and hurriedly went to get someone, but she was still a step too late.

Zhang Zhizhi fell to the ground, and her face turned pale in an instant.

"Your Majesty, why did you push me?" Zhang Zhizhi looked at Jiang Qi with a horrified face. People walking in front heard the sound and looked back.

Jiang Qi was a little confused. She just patted Concubine Shu on the shoulder. She was sure that she didn't use any strength at all. How could someone fall down?

When Nalanjiao saw Zhang Zhizhi sitting on the ground, she hurriedly ran over with her skirt in hand, "What are you still waiting for? Why don't you hurry up and ask the doctor to get a cushion?"

"Yes, Concubine Xian."

When the palace maids and nuns realized what was happening, they hurriedly called for the imperial doctor, and for the soft cushions, for fear that if it was too late, the child in Concubine Shu's belly would not be safe.

Nalanjiao let Zhang Zhizhi lean into her arms and thoughtfully wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief.

Concubine De, Gu Xueyao, wanted to come over to help, but Nalanjiao stopped her, "You are also pregnant with a child, so you should take care of yourself first. You two must protect Concubine De, and there must be no harm to her."

At this time, Nalanjiao was completely different from the usually domineering and domineering Nalanjiao. If no one had seen it with their own eyes, no one would have imagined that Nalanjiao could be so calm and wise.

Jiang Qi looked at her hands and had a bold guess in her mind. She should have been plotted by Zhang Zhizhi, Nalanjiao and others. Oh, she always thought these were easy fools, but she didn't expect that she fell into their hands. She was really careless.

Another pregnant concubine fell down, and Huangfu Chenyang hurried over with Long Wei.

By the time he arrived, the imperial doctor had already finished diagnosing Concubine Shu. "Back to Your Majesty, Concubine Shu has fetal gas and needs to rest for a month."

"What's going on?" Fortunately, the child is okay, otherwise Huangfu Chenyang would definitely kill a few people to vent his anger.

"Your Majesty, I don't blame the imperial concubine, she definitely didn't mean it." Concubine Shu weakly interceded for Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi plopped down and knelt in front of Huangfu Chenyang, "Your Majesty, I just want to comfort Concubine Shu, and I definitely don't want to harm the dragon heir in her belly."

Huangfu Chenyang's eyes were cold. He leaned over and pinched Jiang Qi's chin, "You can't tolerate my child so much?"

As soon as Huangfu Chenyang said these words, it showed that he did not believe Jiang Qi's words.

Jiang Qi's tears fell instantly, "Your Majesty, I didn't expect that Concubine Shu would fall down with just a light touch.

I was afraid that Concubine Shu and Concubine De would be in danger while walking in the snow with their stomachs full to enjoy the plum blossoms, so I walked slowly with them, but I didn't expect that the road would be so slippery. "

After Huangfu Chenyang heard Jiang Qi's words, her eyes fell on Concubine Shu.

"Concubine Shu, if you and Concubine De didn't settle the baby properly in the palace, why did you come out to enjoy the flowers?"

Before Concubine Shu could answer, Nalanjiao spoke first, "Your Majesty, all this was my concubine's idea. I was afraid that they would be depressed staying in the palace, so I proposed to go out to enjoy the flowers together, but unexpectedly an accident happened.

But no matter what, this is all my fault, and I am guilty. "

After Nalanjiao finished speaking, she knocked her head directly to the ground. Soon, her forehead began to bleed.

Seeing Nalanjiao acting like this, Huangfu Chenyang couldn't bear to blame her anymore, and besides, it was not her fault today.

"Doctor Wang, please hurry up and bandage Concubine Xian's wound."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Doctor Wang did not dare to neglect and hurriedly disinfected and bandaged Nalanjiao's forehead.

Jiang Qi, who was also kneeling, looked even more ugly. Nalanjiao had become so strange now. Didn't she care about that face the most? How could she hit him so hard?

Nalanjiao was just like her name, very delicate. When she kowtowed just now, she didn't feel much pain. Now that the medicine was applied to the wound, she moaned softly in pain.

Looking at those similar eyes, Huangfu Chenyang's anger disappeared, "Since you know it hurts, don't be so reckless next time."

"Your Majesty, I feel sorry for you." Nalanjiao began to act coquettishly, and Huangfu Chenyang's heart softened even more.

"Come here, take Concubine Xian, Concubine Shu and Concubine Virtue back to the palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Huangfu Chenyang asked the other concubines to retreat, leaving only the noble concubine kneeling on the ground.

Jiang Qi felt extremely embarrassed. How could she manage the harem after today? His Majesty was too ruthless.

Huangfu Chenyang reached out and pulled Jiang Qi up from the ground, "The ground is cold, get up."

Jiang Qi couldn't understand Huangfu Chenyang's sudden concern. Is Your Majesty just giving me a slap in the face?
