The Prime Minister's Wife

Chapter 252 The Empress Is Happy (2)
Because of yesterday's little incident, the circle was confined within his vision, and even the jade chessboard was moved into his study, which is called "inseparable".

Boqing picks up a chess piece, plays with it in his hand, examines this man thoroughly, the feeling of mixing attention and ignorance is really uncomfortable, and puts the chess piece on the chessboard casually.

Snapped!
A square immediately bounced off the chessboard, and the flinty face couldn't help but froze.

She studied this move for more than a month, but she still didn't understand it thoroughly. She didn't expect to be opened by mistake. Resisting the excitement in her heart, she pulled out the small box.

However, there was nothing inside except a piece of sheepskin, so I was a little disappointed.

Spreading out the sheepskin, the two ancient fonts on it immediately attracted ruthless eyes.

Burn the moon!

This is the secret book of burning moon.

In the previous life, it was taught by mother orally. I didn't expect that there was also a copy hidden in the jade chessboard. It seemed that it was older than the one used by my mother. I couldn't help but read it carefully.

While looking at the version I am practicing now, I didn’t expect that after thousands of years, the current practice has been much improved compared to more than 1000 years ago. When I turned to the last page, I just glanced at it casually. A slender finger suddenly pressed down on the sheepskin, and flinched involuntarily.

Mu Zhaoming did not know when he was already standing behind her, and where his finger pointed, there was a line of small characters only the size of rice: "The secret book of exercises is written in a font more than 1000 years ago, and these small characters are written in You should study the bone inscriptions from 3000 years ago, and you may find something new.”

Boqing couldn't help being surprised. The bone inscriptions from 3000 years ago, that is to say, the burning moon technique already existed 3000 years ago. I really didn't expect the Bo family to be so old. It has nothing to do with burning the moon.

He raised his head and looked at Mu Zhaoming: "Your matter has been dealt with."

Mu Zhaoming smiled: "I will ask someone to find some documents from 3000 years ago for you." After thinking for a while, he said: "I have already suggested to the emperor to let the prince attend the New Year's Eve banquet. If you don't like to socialize, you can accompany me more Accompany the empress." A palace card for entering and exiting the palace fell into Bo Qing's hands.

Playing with the palace cards, he smiled affectionately and said, "That's exactly what I mean."

Instead of being passive and waiting for others to make a move, it is better to take the initiative.Since the eldest prince's weakness is in the palace, then she will go to the palace.

The eyes are seven points clear and three points cunning. Mu Zhaoming loves her eyes to death, especially when she is plotting against others, he bites her earrings: "After the next court, the emperor told me that he really wanted to drink The empress makes tea, the empress does not have suitable water for making tea, I would like to ask you to send a jar of good water to Fengyi Palace."

The fickle eyes flickered lightly: "Oh! Got it! Let Bo'er accompany me into the palace."

The empress refused to make tea, not just because there was no suitable water for making tea, but for other reasons.

Mu Zhaoming kissed her lips: "Smart girl."

Bo Qing held a red umbrella and took silk, followed Shun Hua, the female official sent by the emperor to greet her, and walked as if no one else was there, to the passage of the East and West Six Palaces.

Due to the continuous heavy snowfall, the imperial palace was decorated into a glazed world of powder carvings and jade. From the visual point of view, this place full of filth was finally temporarily clean. I couldn't help but stop and watch: "The imperial palace under the snow has a special charm."

Shun Hua said with a smile: "Madam Zhongshuling, let's go. I'm afraid the emperor will come down if it's later."

Bo Qing nodded with a smile, and when he was about to reach the gate of the East Six Courts, suddenly a group of guards of honor came out from the West Court.

Seeing the imperial concubine's ceremonial guard, she knew that it was Concubine Yi who was going to travel.

The three of them had no time to dodge, put away their umbrellas, and knelt down respectfully.

The team was mighty and mighty, passing in front of Boqing and the others without any intention of stopping, but after the guard of honor entered the gate of the East Court, they stopped suddenly, and Concubine Yi's voice came from inside the gate: "Is it Shunhua?"

Shun Hua quickly trotted forward: "The imperial concubine and empress are blessed with good fortune."

Sitting on the sedan chair, Concubine Yi said with a smile that was not a smile: "Who entered the palace and wanted to bother Shun Hua to greet him personally?"

Shun Hua lowered his eyes and said with a smile: "Hui Niangniang, it's Mrs. Zhongshu Ling."

Concubine Yi frowned imperceptibly, and said with a smile on her lips: "Mrs. Zhongshuling, I haven't seen her for a long time, let her come forward." The eunuch beside him hurriedly turned around to pass on the message.

Baoqing lowered her head slightly, lowered her eyes, walked to the front of the sedan chair, and saluted respectfully: "The concubine sees the imperial concubine, and the imperial concubine is blessed and safe!"

Concubine Yi looked at the slender and romantic figure in front of her from her senior year. The outside was a cloak with a red feather gauze and a white fox inside, while the inside was still a white dress embroidered with dark patterns of the other shore flower, simple and noble as always.

The bare-foot-long black hair is not combed in a bun, but the hair around the ears is gathered behind the head, braided into a coiled flower, tied up with a straight hosta, and the rest of the hair is casually scattered behind her. Undeniably charming.

The simple and flamboyant demeanor and the young and indifferent face made Concubine Yi feel deeply jealous, and she said without any expression on her face: "Madam Zhongshuling, I don't know why you are rushing into the palace at this moment?" The tone was broad With a hint of sourness.

Boqing sneered in her heart, she was indeed a jealous jar, and said with a respectful face: "Returning to the imperial concubine, the concubine is ordered by the emperor to send a jar of water to Fengyi Palace."

Concubine Yi frowned: "Why send a jar of water?"

Boqing lowered her eyes and said: "The concubine dare not hide it. The emperor just asked the concubine to send a pot of water for making tea to Fengyi Palace. As for what it is used for, the concubine does not know."

Making tea, these two words seemed to irritate Concubine Yi, and she couldn't help but lose her mind for a while while sitting in the sedan chair. A seemingly capable girl next to her whispered: "Your Majesty, it's time to go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace to pay respects to the Empress Dowager."

Concubine Yi came back suddenly, and said in a hasty tone: "Let's go, don't keep the Queen Mother waiting."

With cold eyes and a sideways look at the ruthlessness, sooner or later he will take care of this little vixen, who dares to seduce the emperor, even Shen Yue can't beat me, what an underage yellow-haired girl is.

Boqing looked at the guard of honor that was rushing forward, and raised the corners of her lips: "I will send my concubine to the imperial concubine!"

Turning back to Shun Hua, he said, "Let's go."

Open the umbrella to block the falling snowflakes, and walk slowly towards Fengyi Palace.

In the Zhongcui Hall of Fengyi Palace, the empress walked in from the outside with great demeanor, and the corners of her lips could not help raising her lips when she saw the thinness: "It's almost Chinese New Year. I can only see you at this time, I didn't expect you to enter the palace at this time."

Boqing went up to see the ceremony, turned around, opened a square box on the table, revealed the white porcelain altar inside and said: "Go back to the empress, this concubine has brought you a jar of good water by order of the emperor. Make tea for the emperor."

Hearing this, the empress suddenly felt dizzy, her body couldn't help taking a few steps back, she hurriedly supported the maid beside her, she stared at the porcelain altar with a pale face, the maid next to her wanted to make a sound, she immediately asked the empress to stop her, and looked at the enthusiastic voice in front of her. Woman, pretend to be calm.

Opening the lid of the jar, she didn't seem to notice the queen's change, and continued flirtatiously, "This is the snow water collected by the concubine on the bamboo in Banyueju, and it is hidden with half of the jar of bamboo drained water. The boiled tea will bring There is a faint fragrance of bamboo, and the bamboo drain can clear away heat and reduce phlegm."

"Do you think it's okay?"

Turning around, seeing the empress's complexion was not right, her heart sank slightly, she hurriedly stepped forward to support the empress, and said worriedly: "Empress, your face is so pale, do you feel uncomfortable?"

Hastily said to the maid next to her: "Quick, the empress is not feeling well, hurry up and ask the imperial doctor to come and take a look."

Boqing helped the queen to lie down on the beauty couch, and covered her with a thin quilt lined with velvet. Thinking about Xiaoyu that day, this time must have brought back the most painful memory of the queen.

What did the emperor do that made the empress so afraid, even the concubine Yigui just now, but the aunt beside her left a deep impression on her, that kind of shrewdness and composure, even in the empress dowager. Never seen.

A moment later, an old doctor with white beard and hair came to feel the queen's pulse.

After seeing the ceremony, the old doctor took out a white handkerchief and put it on the Queen's wrist, feeling for the pulse.

Looking at the queen, the old doctor showed a hint of surprise on his face, and hesitated to take the queen's pulse again, which made everyone feel strange and worried.

After repeated confirmation, the imperial physician knelt on the ground with a smile on his face: "Congratulations, empress."

The maid in charge of the empress immediately became anxious: "You old man, what's the matter with you! Don't be foolish, tell me quickly."

Seeing the joyful expression on the old doctor's face, the fickle heart moved slightly, and the old doctor smiled and said: "Congratulations, empress, you are happy."

Everyone couldn't help being stunned, and looked at the queen in surprise, and An Nu who was standing next to her immediately exclaimed: "Really, that's great."

The palace maid hurriedly led all the people in the palace to congratulate her: "Slaves (slaves) congratulate the empress!"

The queen said calmly: "Get up." She said to the old doctor: "Physician Xu, I don't want to spread the news about the pregnancy for the time being, you should understand."

As expected of an old man in the palace, Imperial Physician Xu nodded quickly. There are too few children who can be born safely in the palace, and grow up safely: "The empress, don't worry, I know what to do. The empress is pregnant at an advanced age and needs to be recuperated." Take a look at your body, and ask the queen to send someone and Wei Chen to the imperial hospital to get the medicine together."

The queen took a deep breath and said lightly: "Chaolu, you can go with Doctor Xu."

"Yes."

After Chao Lu left, the people in the palace immediately came forward and said: "Congratulations to the empress, congratulations to the empress."

The empress looked at the crowd, not angry but prestige: "There is something happy, I don't want people outside Fengyi Palace to know for the time being, do you understand?"

"Slaves understand!"

"The servant understands!"

The Empress nodded and said: "In Fengyi Palace, everyone has rewards. Luoxia, go and get some."

After the imperial doctor Xu left, he stood up tenderly and looked at the queen, only to see the queen's face was indifferent, without any joy on her face, she stepped forward to hold her hand and said, "Your Majesty, are you unhappy?"

The queen said indifferently: "Should I be happy?" This child is not what she wants.

Bo Qing pondered for a moment, looked at the jar on the table, recalled those shrewd eyes, and said lightly: "Empress Empress, this concubine wants to ask you about someone, this person is... the aunt next to Concubine Yi?"

The queen's complexion couldn't help but change: "What do you want to do?"

Thinly smiled and said: "The concubine wants to let the empress feel at ease!"
