Chaos in the Chu Palace

Chapter 26: First Pregnancy (3)
Su Yanqing took the jade pendant and felt it was warm and warm, hurriedly put it away solemnly, cupped her fists and said: "Madam Seven, don't worry. Su will definitely find the child for Madam."

Only then did Wan Hui help Ouyang Ruo up.

Seeing that things were over, Su Yanqing could not stay any longer, so she said goodbye to Ouyang Ruo, before leaving, she whispered to Ouyang Ruo: "Recently, the situation in Beijing and China is complicated, and some people in the Gyeonggi line newspaper office said that they saw some Chinese people who seemed to be doing something wrong. Among them, there is one person whom Lai Madam recognizes, that is Zhang Ziming who robbed Madam that day. Now he is lurking in Chujing, if Madam has nothing to do, don't go out."

Ouyang Ruo was startled, only feeling panic in his heart.

Seeing Su Yanqing walk away, she went back to the house.Dexuan came out from the inner hall, and said to Ouyang Ruo suspiciously: "Madam, why didn't you tell General Su the contact information of Diji. This servant sees that General Su is a great husband, and will definitely bring Diji back."

Ouyang Ruo let out a long breath, frowned and smiled bitterly: "If you tell him everything, what will we do if he is taken advantage of by others? I also know that he is upright, and I am not afraid of ten thousand, but ten thousand." One. The matter of finding Emperor Ji still depends on our long-term consideration. You should feel at ease to find out if there is Ling Huahang in Beijing, Eunuch Wu is a shrewd person, it is impossible not to think that we are here."

Dexuan thought for a while before suddenly saying yes.

The [-]th day of this month is coming soon, Ouyang Ruo and Wan Hui carefully prepared several after-dinner refreshments, and made several dishes of candied fruit.Because Ouyang Ruo started to feel sick and lost his appetite, Wan Hui prepared another appetizing side dish.

Wan Hui took care of these exquisite things and said: "The food in Chudi is more salty. If Madam is not used to it, just add a few chopsticks. When I come back, I will cook some snacks for Madam."

Ouyang Ruo smiled slightly and said, "How can you eat too much? Auntie, don't worry, there are many people who can't eat at the banquet. These are just for their appearance."

At the moment of Shushi, Ouyang Ruo was supported by Wan Hui, and took a few maids to Fuxi Garden in the mansion.A small pavilion was built in Fuxi Garden. The pavilion was open on all sides, and a small stage was built on the opposite side.Ouyang Ruo boarded the pavilion, only a few wives were there, and Princess Liu and others had not yet come.

Ouyang Ruo chatted and laughed with the wives for a while, before the concubine and Liu came over, Ouyang Ruo and the wives went to see the ceremony.Concubine Chu wore a red gold thread embroidered long dress today, embroidered with birds competing for spring, and a thin veil embroidered with auspiciousness, wealth and clouds, with a high bun on her head, and a golden step of flying butterflies and flowers on each side. Shake, put a few very fine hairpins in each side of the rest of the hair, embellished in the hair and sparkle, and double phoenixes hold pearls in gold Huasheng on the forehead, which looks even more rich and dignified.

She said with a smile: "This concubine is late. She was supposed to congratulate Sister Ouyang, but now she is being rude first."

Mrs. Liu hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Where, I went to find the princess first and came out together. On the way, the little prince was playful and walked slowly. Sisters, take care of yourself."

Ouyang Ruo smiled and said: "The two sisters are too polite, it should be the concubine who should thank you first."

Several people talked and laughed and entered the table.The maidservant waited on the little prince and the little princess at the small table next to him.It was the first time for Ouyang Ruo to see the little princess, everyone knew her daughter as Father Xiao, but Ouyang Ruo looked at her with pale complexion, thin limbs, and big eyes, which looked more like Concubine Chu.

Ouyang Ruo sat under Mrs. Liu, and there was an empty seat on the right of Concubine Chu for Mrs. Xu, but there was no one there yet.Ouyang Ruo looked up, Concubine Chu's face was expressionless, and Mrs. Liu even laughed at Yan Yan, so Ouyang Ruo relaxed her mind.

Concubine Chu smiled and pointed to this table of banquets and said, "You can eat as you please. Later, the mansion will invite jugglers and singers from outside, and you won't be able to eat if you just watch it."

The ladies all laughed.

Mrs. Liu was the first to raise the wine glass and said: "Let us toast this glass of wine to wish Princess Houye good health and a long life." The wives all smiled and applauded, and drank it all together.Ouyang Ruo couldn't drink alcohol, so he made a toast to the princess and Liu Shi with water as wine.

The faces of the ladies at the table are harmonious and harmonious, the pearls and hairpins are shining, and the clothes are fragrant and beautiful.The night breeze was refreshing, bringing the fragrance of flowers and plants in the garden, and the sound of frogs outside the pavilion. Fire, and some jumping circles.There are also children who look like children, each of them is soft and boneless, and they can drill into bottomless wooden barrels.

The wives in the mansion seldom go out, and Ouyang Ruo has been in the palace for many years, so they are all excited and praised again and again.Just watching, Mrs. Xu led a group of maids and mothers to the pavilion, and Ouyang Ruo saw that she was dressed in white, and sat on the mat with a cold and pretty face.Ouyang Ruo just ignored, but Wan Hui frowned.

She whispered in Ouyang Ruo's ear: "Ma'am, she is clearly here to make trouble."

Ouyang Ruo's face turned cold, she shook her lady's fluttering butterfly fan in her hand, covered her mouth, and said without turning her head: "Don't pay attention to her, the princess is the first one to get upset when she looks at her. This table is opened by her. .We just accompany the guests."

Wan Hui kept silent.Seeing that Mrs. Xu was dressed too plain, several wives talked in a low voice for a while.Concubine Chu was concentrating on watching, when she turned her head and saw Xu dressed like that, she couldn't help but straighten her face: "Madam Xu, if you don't feel well, don't come here, why do you want to offend someone by dressing like this?"

Mrs. Xu suddenly smiled, bowed down and said: "Princess, the fortune teller said that I have committed a villain in the past few days, so I should wear more plain clothes to relieve myself." After finishing speaking, she twisted her slender waist and sat down again. Back to the seat.

Concubine Chu's face turned pale with anger, she couldn't say a word, so she could only snort coldly and turned her head to continue watching the juggling.Ouyang Ruo watched the stage for a while, then felt tired, turned her eyes, and suddenly felt that there seemed to be a knife-like eyes staring at her from the opposite side.She was startled suddenly, and just as she was about to see clearly, she suddenly saw a figure by the stage flickering and then disappeared.The figure of the man was tall and straight, fast and powerful, Ouyang Ruo looked familiar for a while, but couldn't remember where he saw it.

While thinking about it, suddenly a lady screamed.Ouyang Ruo's heart skipped a beat, and saw a half-sized pug running up the pavilion, looking for something to eat on the ground.As soon as the lady barked, the ladies started to startle. Seeing that it was a dog, they screamed again, hiding and moving. Some of the maids and mothers were also afraid of dogs, so they immediately became chaotic.

Ouyang Ruo saw that the wives at the banquet started to panic, and panicked, and Wan Hui hurriedly stood in front of Ouyang Ruo.The little dog somehow ran all the way to Ouyang Ruo Liu's side. Ouyang Ruo was not afraid of the dog, but he was afraid of it jumping up and biting people.Seeing the dog running over there, the lady at the mat left the mat one after another and ran to the window.

Concubine Chu kept yelling: "Hurry up and drive this beast out! Where did the wild dog come from! Hurry up!"

The maidservant quickly claimed yes, and rushed to chase the dog away, but the puppy was agile and scurried around.Liu's face was also pale, she got close to Ouyang Ruo, and grabbed Ouyang Ruo's hand, screaming: "Hurry up and pick up Xiao Shizi, you guys quickly take Xiao Shizi away, a bunch of idiots, idiots!" What are you doing standing there!"

Ouyang Ruo's hand hurt from being pulled by her, but it was hard to break away.The people in the pavilion were making a fuss like porridge, Ouyang Ruo squeezed out more and more.Suddenly, the dog seemed to be determined, and rushed towards Ouyang Ruo.Wan Hui exclaimed and protected Ouyang Ruo.Ouyang Ruo only felt that there seemed to be a strong impact from the right. She was leaning against the window and was almost knocked down.Wan Hui was quick and quickly held her back.Ouyang Ruo screamed in fright and hugged Wan Hui tightly.

Wan Hui was surprised and angry: "Madam Seven is pregnant, who of you dares to squeeze over here! In case something bad happens, let's see how Princess Hou will deal with you."

Seeing how chaotic the crowd was, Concubine Chu slapped the table and cursed: "A bunch of idiots, what are you doing here? Get off! Take all the princes and princesses down! And invite the wives down first too."

Seeing the chaos here, the jugglers on the stage stopped quickly and looked at each other.Concubine Chu's scolding soon had an effect, and some maidservants came to their senses and hurriedly left the pavilion.The dog was still running around the pavilion.When passing by Ouyang Ruo, Wan Hui was not polite and kicked it away fiercely.The dog was caught by some old nuns, barked loudly, and took it away.

Concubine Chu saw that the banquet was not complete, and said angrily: "I dragged that dog down and beat it to death with sticks. Find out who brought it. How can the mansion keep such a wild thing?"

When she turned her head and saw Ouyang Ruo's complexion turned pale, she came to her senses with an ouch and said, "Come on, call the doctor and see how Mrs. Seven is doing." She said and walked over nervously.

Ouyang Ruo gradually calmed down, forced a smile and said: "Go back to the princess, I'm fine, I'll go back and lie down first."

Concubine Chu was full of remorse, and said repeatedly: "Go back quickly, by the way, ask someone to lift a shoulder to bring you back. And call the doctor. Take a good look."

Ouyang Ruo responded softly.Soon the shoulder was raised, Ouyang Ruo sat on it, and returned to Jingyun Pavilion.Following the doctor, he came to take the pulse. Fortunately, Ouyang Ruo was not weak, and the fetal image was stable. After seeing it, the doctor prescribed some anti-fetal medicines, and then left.

After hearing what the doctor said, Wan Hui was really relieved.Said to Ouyang Ruo: "Fortunately, God blesses, otherwise the servants are really anxious."

Ouyang Ruoyi lay on the bed, covered with a thicker quilt, curled up inside and took a deep breath, trying her best to calm down her mood.Hearing Wan Hui's nagging, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Auntie saved my life. If I fall down, it will be over."

Wan Hui cursed bitterly: "It's all Mrs. Xu, who wore white clothes for no reason and brought in all the dirty things. If something happens, the servant will be the first to go to her."

Ouyang Ruo didn't speak when she heard it, but the eyes on the side of the stage made her feel familiar, but she just couldn't remember it.

Wan Hui was talking, when Mingying suddenly came over and said, "Ma'am, Master Hou is here."

Just as she was talking, Ouyang Ruo felt a gust of wind in her face, the curtain was lifted, and a figure sat in front of her.Ouyang Ruo saw that Chu Huotian was full of alcohol, wearing a thin robe embroidered with auspicious clouds and auspicious bats, a purple gold crown inlaid with jade on his head, and a jade belt to slim his body.There was a touch of flush on the face, as if returning from a banquet.

"How is it? What did the doctor say?" Chu Huotian took her hand and asked with a frown.

Ouyang Ruo frowned slightly, and said: "Go back to Lord Marquis, it's nothing, just take some anti-abortion medicine. Fortunately, Wanhui is holding the concubine. Otherwise, if you fall..."

Seeing her beautiful face, Chu Huotian was startled and angry, so he couldn't help but put his arms around her and said: "Since you have nothing to do, don't go to banquets with many people in the future. Hui Wan is also true, you can eat at a banquet." Let something happen."

His dissatisfaction was palpable.

Ouyang Ruo pulled him and said anxiously: "Master Hou can't blame the princess. The princess is also kind-hearted and wanted to celebrate the concubine's life. Now that something happened, the princess felt uncomfortable. If Master Hou blames her again, she will be fine in the future." The concubine is also ashamed to see the princess."

Seeing her eagerness, Chu Huotian reluctantly responded.After saying a few words, Chu Huotian looked tired and took off his clothes. Ouyang Ruo hurriedly called his servants to fetch hot water to clean his face and body.

Chu Huotian tidied up, lay down on the bed, pulled Ouyang Ruo over and smiled and said, "Your side is more comfortable, although it's not wide enough, but everything is done properly, and you can feel at ease when you lie down."
