Concubine, she is so charming

Chapter 228
"Look at Xiurong like this, did you win another battle today?"

Nan Zhi smiled and brought two plates of fresh fruit, and joked a bit.

The one who followed today was Huiyue, who also smiled, "We are very good at grooming, so naturally we are the ones to win. You haven't seen Yi Xiuyuan and Fang Xiuyuan, they have bad mouths."

"Isn't it just a satire that I'm not pregnant? I eat salty radish every day and don't worry about it. If I'm really pregnant, they'll be so anxious that they won't be able to sleep." Ye Yun rolled his eyes.

The group of women in the harem are still a bit poor at speaking, except for being spoiled and not having children, they can't tell anything new.

She is tired of hearing it.

"Have you noticed that Fang Xiuyuan's activities have gradually increased recently? Although she used to be slightly favored, she never participated in the bickering between concubines, but now she always likes to mix things up."

Holding a silver fork, she pierced a piece of watermelon and put it in her mouth. Ye Yun spoke vaguely.

Huiyue nodded, "The maidservant has also noticed, so I guess I still can't sit still."

"I always feel that she targets me more, but it stands to reason that Yi Xiuyuan is the biggest threat to her." Ye Yun said.

Nan Zhi thought for a while, then said, "I guess it's because we broke up with her, didn't her dowry maid take the blame for her? I'm still thinking about it."

"It was definitely her who did it that time, but she acted cautiously, and the Dongchuang incident was completely wiped out when it happened, and the emperor cared about saving his life. In addition, Yi Xiuyuan did not have a miscarriage, so she escaped a catastrophe."

Ye Yun narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking of that time of framing, she still felt uncomfortable.

In the end, Yao Shi only lost one of her maidservants, and it was still cheaper for her.

If things were to happen in the first place, the one who died would be himself, not Yao's maid.

"The less barking a dog is, the more likely it is to bite. Fang Xiuyuan and I have married. She has a lot of power, so I just need to take more precautions in the future."

Hui Yue and Nan Zhi nodded.

After staying in the palace for a long time, it can be regarded as seeing a lot of private affairs, and now he is very careful.

For these ghosts and monsters, those who should come can't escape. Ye Yun is not a timid person.

For the next few days, the direction of the wind in the harem was very strange.

It can't be said to be weird, it's an unprecedented rule.

Ning Chen strictly followed the queen mother's requirement of sharing the rain and dew, and went to a concubine for a day.

Whether it's sleeping or eating, anyway, I will go to see one every other day.

Starting from the empress, they are Concubine Shu, Concubine Jing, Wang Xiuyi, Fang Xiuyuan, Yi Xiuyuan, Xia Meiren, and Cui Baolin.

Yes, Ye Yun and Chen Jieyu were picked out alone.

The reason is that both of them have already been seen first.

After one operation, half a month has passed, and one day will be the Double Ninth Ceremony.

On the eighth day of September, the emperor didn't go anywhere.

But he did send a message, and he will return to the palace after the Double Ninth Ceremony, and he will leave on September [-]th.

I have been away from the summer heat for several months, so it is not easy to stay for too long without going back.

Perhaps it was because of the excitement of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it took less than a month for another banquet to be held, and everyone's interest was not so high.

At the banquet, Ning Chen was mostly talking to the ministers, and he didn't pay much attention to the concubines in the harem.

But this can't stop the enthusiasm of the harem women.

Yi Xiuyuan played the piano and Cui Baolin danced.

Concubine Shu still carried out the method of letting her daughter compete for favor as always, and pushed the child to recite a poem for Ning Chen.

During the festive season, Ning Chen was in a good mood, and he gave him a lot of face.

As for Ye Yun, she didn't prepare anything, but fought vigorously with the crabs on the plate on the table.

The crabs in September are plump and delicious. The dining room has prepared several flavors such as spicy, steamed, and braised, which are really delicious.

Ning Chen's eyes drifted over from time to time, always wanting to say something.

But Ye Yun was too conspicuous at the Mid-Autumn Festival last time, if it was mentioned again now, it would inevitably appear too favored.

The emperor can spoil his concubines, but if he spoils his concubines too much, his courtiers will always have something to say.

He was annoyed when he heard it, and what's worse, Ye Yun was inevitably involved.

Yes, now Ning Chen can't help but think about her more.

The banquet went smoothly, the queen mother said suddenly.

"It's been a long time since I saw the princes and princesses. Today is the holiday season. Let's bring them to the Ai family to see. I'm getting older. I always like to see my children and grandchildren. Seeing how the eldest princess looks so good, she can recite poems. Time." How time flies, Aijia is getting old."

"The queen mother wants to see it, just ask them to bring it." Ning Chen obeyed.

Grandmother wants to see her grandchildren, why stop her?

The queen warned carefully, "The wind is cool at night, and it is cold in the garden. Take care when the children are brought here, so that they don't catch the cold air."

Only the older princess was present at the banquet, and the other children were not brought along, and they were in their respective residences.

The queen mother glanced at her, smiled and took her daughter-in-law's hand and patted it, "The queen has a delicate mind. Although she has no children, she is good at taking care of children."

For a moment, people couldn't tell whether it was a boast or a loss.

But when the elders speak, boasting is also a loss, and loss is also a boast, and the queen has to bear it.

"This is what a daughter-in-law should do. As a aunt, the heirs in the harem are all daughter-in-law's children, so they should be taken care of with care." The queen looked very gentle.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are a picture of loving each other.

In less than half an hour, several princes and princesses were brought here,

These few are still young, but they were awakened by the slaves, so they are more energetic now.

Of course, the eldest prince must be eliminated here.

The child was sick. Although his complexion was not bad, his eyes always seemed to be closed, and he looked weak.

The child who was almost two years old looked as big as the second princess who was half a year younger than him.

The Queen Mother was obviously prepared. After seeing the children one by one, they all rewarded a jade pendant engraved with the word "Fu Shou".

"It's no wonder that the empress looks a bit tired. It's because of taking such good care of the eldest prince and taking so much trouble." The queen mother said, and waved again, "Ask the eldest prince to come forward and give Ai a hug."

The nurse understood, bent down to put the child down, and coaxed him to move forward.

Madam Fu immediately stepped forward to protect her.

The eldest prince walked over slowly, still a little unsteady, and called out to the stranger in a milky voice, the emperor's grandmother.

"Hey, good boy, ask Grandmother to give you a hug." The Empress Dowager responded with a smile.

Pick up your grandson and sit on your lap.

The eldest prince is thin and small, so it really doesn't take much effort.

"Emperor, this child has been taken care of by the empress. It is inevitable that the empress will be tired. There are many affairs in the harem that require the empress to take care of her. She had a miscarriage not long ago and needs to be taken care of. Ai's family is very lonely in the palace of compassion. It's better to take the eldest prince to Ai's family to raise him, so that the queen can take care of her body so that she can conceive soon and give birth to a son-in-law."

When things got to this point, everyone could see it.

This is by no means the Queen Mother's whim, she must have had this idea long ago, and she just took advantage of today's opportunity to say it.
