Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 161 is approaching
After the discussion between the emperor and the empress, the day when the palace people left the palace was moved forward from March of the next year to the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month.

After the palace people heard the news, most of them were very happy, even if some of them had no family members, they were willing to leave the palace early.

There are too many variables in the palace, no one knows what will happen in the next second, it is also a good thing to leave the palace early.

After counting the palace servants who were going to leave the palace, the queen discussed with the emperor and prepared five taels of silver for each palace servant who wanted to leave the palace, which was counted as their resettlement fee after they left the palace.

Although it is not a small amount of money, some palace people have worked hard in the palace for many years, and now they are leaving, and it is approaching the end of the year, so they should express something no matter what.

For this, the emperor agreed, and the empress ordered Dian Zhongsheng to prepare silver for the palace people who were about to leave.

In a blink of an eye, it was the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, and a large number of palace people were released from the palace.

In the palace, the most indispensable thing is people. Although a group was released, a group was added in March this year, so the number of palace people in the palace did not lose much.

However, due to the adjustment of the quota, a lot of money was still saved.

Leaning on the soft couch, Concubine Chu Guifei's face was a bit ugly, and what was placed on the small table was not the blood swallow she used to eat, but white swallow.

Although Bai Yan's grade was also very good, for Concubine Chu Gui, who was used to eating blood swallows, Bai Yan was not enough to look at at all.

"Take it out and pour it out. I want blood swallows. Go tell the people in the palace that I only want blood swallows here."

After she became pregnant, her temper became very irritable, and she wanted to smash things to vent her anger.

In this regard, Zizhu and Zixiao had nothing to do, and it was not that they had not persuaded them, but Concubine Chu did not listen at all.

"Your Majesty, the slaves have already said this before, but the palace said that there are no more blood swallows at the moment. The empress ordered that only white swallows are allowed during this period, and blood swallows are not allowed, so..."

Zizhu took a step forward and saluted Concubine Chu Gui, she knew about the adjustment of the harem.

Although the food has been adjusted, everything else is provided normally. In the harem, those concubines who eat less will have a portion of their ration reduced when it comes time to eat, and those who eat a lot will be given more food. Some.

In this way, waste is avoided.

Of course, doing so is likely to cause dissatisfaction. After all, the share that should have been reduced and given to others, whoever it is, will feel uncomfortable.

Zhishu and Zhihua both thought of this point, and gave the queen an idea, those concubines who had reduced food, would make up for her in other places according to the situation in her palace.

In this way, those concubines have no objection, anyway, the original portion can't be eaten up, and throwing it away is also a waste.

Now that she has made adjustments, she will not waste food. Not only that, she can also make up for what she needs, which is a good thing for them.

After all, concubines who are not favored on weekdays will inevitably have some deductions in their lives. Now that they have made such adjustments, their lives are much easier.

"That bitch, you want to live the life of an ascetic monk yourself, but you have to implicate others!" Concubine Chu said bitterly, looking at the bird's nest on the table, and waved the bowl to the ground.

Suddenly, the bowl was smashed to pieces, and the bird's nest inside spilled all over the floor, which is really a pity.

Zizhu greeted the palace servants and cleaned up the mess on the ground. Together with Zixiao, she came to Concubine Chu Gui and persuaded her to calm down.

Stretching out her hand to cover her lower abdomen, Concubine Chu took a deep breath to gradually stabilize her emotions. She also knew that it was not good to be angry all the time, but she just couldn't control her emotions.

There was a dull pain in the lower abdomen, and Concubine Chu frowned, feeling irritable.

There is still a long time before March, and she is really worried about long nights and dreams.

I told the queen mother about it, but she was reprimanded by the queen mother, telling her to raise her baby with peace of mind, and don't think too much about the rest.

…………

Entering the twelfth lunar month, the New Year's Eve is getting closer and closer. With the emperor's order, everything in the palace banquet on New Year's Eve will be kept simple.

During this period of time, the emperor finally relaxed a little. Most of the news sent back by the dark guards was good news. What he wanted to do could be regarded as going well, which made him secretly heave a sigh of relief.

Su Qingning's condition is very good. In the twelfth lunar month, she will be eight months pregnant. The twins may be born earlier, or they may be on normal days. No one can predict when Su Qingning will give birth.

Under such circumstances, everyone could only stare at Su Qingning every day, for fear that something would happen to her suddenly.

Day by day, the New Year's Eve is getting closer and closer.

"Nurse Qin, how is the arrangement going?" Leaning on the chair, the Queen Mother asked Nanny Qin.

"Back to the Queen Mother, everything is going according to plan. Don't worry, things will definitely work out on New Year's Eve."

The Empress Dowager did not want the child in Su Qingning's womb to survive. As her person, Mother Qin naturally helped the Empress Dowager.

They don't think about it, if the child is gone, Su Qingning may not be able to live. For them, all they want is the result.

"Yu Rou, how are you doing lately? Is your temper still so irritable?" The Empress Dowager is well aware of Concubine Chu's situation. After all, she is her niece, and she is pregnant with her grandson.

"It's still the same. I tried to persuade her, but the imperial concubine didn't listen to it. She should lose her temper. I still lose my temper. The old servant is worried that if this continues, it will not be good for the fetus in the womb."

"If it's not good, it's not good. This child shouldn't have been born." Although Xuanyuan Qi attached great importance to the child in Concubine Chu Guifei's womb, it was still a shame for the Empress Dowager to be pregnant under such circumstances.

If she really can't keep it, it's better to have a miscarriage, and when she wins the throne in the future, when she can stand beside her son in a fair manner, then she can talk about pregnancy.

"The imperial concubine has been married to the emperor for many years and has never been pregnant. Now she finally has one. If she can keep it, she should try her best to keep it. Otherwise, if she can't have children in the future..."

Nanny Qin believes that according to the Sixth Prince's love for Concubine Chu, she may be the queen in the future. Under such circumstances, the child in her stomach is still very important. If in the future... really There is no way, having a child is better than not having one.

"What are you afraid of? At the beginning, the Ai family was not pregnant, so didn't they also 'give birth' to the emperor? If you want a child, are you afraid that you won't be able to give birth?" The queen mother didn't think so, after all, there was a precedent for her.

"In short, keep an eye on her and tell her to restrain herself a little. It's only been a few months. After she gets through it, she will be in her early years. If the child is gone, then someone else will be the queen."

The Queen Mother knew very well that her niece's lifeblood, she looked at Qin Nanny and gave orders.

After receiving the order, Nanny Qin saluted and responded, and exited the hall. There are still many things waiting for her to be safe at the New Year's Eve palace banquet...
