Concubine Ning of the Wu family of Kangxi

Chapter 44

"Yes, Empress Dowager." Wu Anning replied softly.

The Empress Dowager nodded, and asked the maid to move a small chair for Wu Anning to sit down, which immediately attracted the attention of the nobles who were still standing in the room.

When they were standing, the Wu nobleman was given a seat to make them feel at ease, but how could they dare to talk to the queen mother? Watching the queen mother talk to Concubine Tong next to her, the standing nobleman Guo Luoluo and Nala Mrs. Hebu kept going to see her, especially Mrs. Guo Luoluo who paid the most attention.

Wu Anning is at the bottom, except for the concubines in the harem, Dafujin, Sanfujin and Sifujin are all there, and the crown prince's side Fujin Li Jia, who is six months pregnant, is also here, but she is taken special care of by the queen mother, Zhang Luo Sitting in a chair not far from the Queen Mother, before Wu Anning came to the future, the Queen Mother and Li Jiafujin were the ones who talked the most.

Although Li Jia's side Fujin is a side Fujin, but the crown princess has not decided, she is pregnant with the prince's child, if this is a son, then it is still the eldest grandson of the emperor, can it be precious?

It can be said that Li Jia's side Fujin's body is more noble than the fourth concubine's.

Wu Anning couldn't help mourning for the future princess. Kangxi always had the habit of picking Fujin first for his beloved son.Before the concubine entered the house, Fujin had an eldest son. If the crown prince could ascend the throne in the future, he would not fall into the current situation where the elder brother and the crown prince are in conflict!

When Mr. Kangxi said that the concubine was orthodox, Wu Anning looked at it coldly. He probably didn't care about the distinction between concubine and concubine, as he himself was a concubine.Looking at it now, I'm afraid not many people can see that the inside and outside of the palace are facing the inside.

It's good that Wu Anning knows this in her heart, she won't bring it up at all.

Such an emperor is also good, so as not to care too much about the orthodox emperor, she has no way to take the throne.

Sitting next to Wu Anning is Sifujin, and almost all the masters in the palace gather here. Sanfujin and Sifujin have to sit at the bottom no matter whether they are juniors or in terms of status, because the mother above Although concubines and concubines are all concubines, they are also concubines of the emperor. The sons of the emperor are all ministers except the prince, and the status of ministers' wives is just inferior.As for the nobles in the palace, those who are often present and promises, there is actually a common saying that they are not even considered concubines, so their status is relatively low.

Si Fujin kept his eyes fixed, and sat upright very gracefully.On the other hand, San Fujin was quite restless in the seat opposite, she was talking happily with the concubine Jing next to her, unaware that her mother-in-law Concubine Rong had glanced at her several times.

The days of sitting with him were extremely boring, she was not familiar with Si Fujin next to her, and she had nothing to say to Si Fujin, so she just sat quietly beside her.

I do not know how long it has been.

There was more and more laughter in the room, and the queen mother was amused by all the concubines.

At this time, footsteps were rarely heard outside.

"Queen, the emperor has arrived."

The house was suddenly quiet.

The Empress Dowager looked even happier and said, "Don't let the emperor come in?"

All the people in the room also looked towards the door, especially those who hadn't seen the emperor for several months, their faces were full of expressions like Wangfushi.

Kangxi strode in.

"I've seen the Queen Mother."

Empress Xiaohui got up and walked down, and then helped Kangxi up.

"The emperor will soon excuse me."

Kangxi took advantage of the situation and got up, and immediately the Empress Dowager Xiaohui moved a chair beside the Empress Dowager, and after Kangxi helped the Empress Dowager Xiaohui to sit down, she sat down on the chair next to her.

Glancing at the people below, his gaze stayed on Wu Anning for a while longer.

Then he glanced at Gu Wenxing, and Gu Wenxing asked the concubines to leave in a low voice, obviously Kangxi and Empress Xiaohui had something to discuss.

The group came out of Ningshou Palace, Ningshou Palace was quite crowded, gathering in twos and threes, Wu Anning stayed at the end and waited for one by one to leave in a sedan chair.

But she didn't want to, when Concubine Yi led nobleman Guo Luoluo away, she called Wu Anning.

"My palace and Yongshou Palace are close, so let's go together."

Yongshou Palace can be said to be the farthest place from Ningshou Palace if you walk from the harem. Concubine Yi is sitting, but she and Mrs. Guo Luoluo have to walk. Isn't this a living pain?Walk alone, but stop when you want, and rest when you want.

Wu Anning lowered his eyebrows and was about to speak when Gu Wenxing suddenly came out.

"I have met you ladies and gentlemen." He greeted and summed up the countless people present, and no one would say that he was disrespectful.

Concubine Wen Xi left first, Concubine Hui didn't come, so Concubine Yi is at the front.

"Boss Gu came out, but what orders does the emperor have?"

Gu Wenxing said respectfully: "Go back to your mother, Lord Long Live asked the slaves to ask the nobles to wait in the side hall."

With the last sentence, Gu Wenxing turned slightly to Wu Anning.

As soon as his words fell, the expressions of the concubines all changed involuntarily.

I really miss Mr. Wu!Hu Meizi!Everyone here must be thinking of Wu Guiren, as if they don't exist, right?
Someone has been cursing secretly in their hearts.

Seeing this, Concubine Yi lowered her voice, and said: "So, Mr. Wu will stay and serve, and I'm leaving."

Wu Aning blessed his body, and Gu Wenxing also bowed and saluted: "Respectfully send off the empress."

At this moment, Wu Anning felt the eyes of countless people staring at her fiercely, Wu Anning raised her eyes and glanced lightly, most of the concubines were envious and resentful, and the faces of several leaders were calm, or there were smiles at the corners of their mouths, Pretty much conceals emotions.

Sanfujin was curious, as was Li Jiashi, the crown prince's side Fujin, but Sifujin and her mother-in-law Concubine De had the same expression, smiling slightly, showing no emotion.

Sure enough, it was Fujin who was known as the most dignified and respectful as soon as she got married.

After Concubine Rong left, Gu Wenxing led Wu Anning into the side hall of Ningshou Palace.

There is no owner in the side hall, only a few court ladies are waiting on the side, Gu Wenxing said in a low voice: "My lord, wait a moment."

Wu Anning nodded slightly, and said, "Thank you."

Gu Wenxing quickly called: "Don't dare", and then retreated.

Wu Anning in the Ningshou Palace is naturally too disciplined. The days of waiting have always been difficult, especially waiting on someone else's site, which is even more tormenting. There has never been a change.

For about two quarters of an hour, I didn't see Kangxi, it was Gu Wenxing's apprentice Liu Jinzhong who came to ask Wu Anning to leave.

Outside Ningshou Palace, Gu Wenxing was outside the dragon chariot, motioning for Wu Aning to go up, it can be seen that Kangxi was already on the dragon chariot.

Pushing aside the dragon carriage, Kangxi sat on the dragon carriage drinking tea, saw Wu Anning and said, "Come here."

Wu Anning nodded, and sat down beside him calmly. At this moment, she could feel that Kangxi was not in a good mood.

"Why don't you have anything to say to me?" Kangxi, who was not in a good mood, even took the initiative to ask.

Wu Anning couldn't just say that he was in a bad mood, so she immediately said, "Anning is thinking about how to thank the emperor for taking care of Anning's legs."

Kangxi glanced at her lightly, and said, "Did I say that I would send you back?"

Wu Anning hurriedly smiled and said: "It will be fine for the emperor to return to Qianqing Palace."

When you arrive at Qianqing Palace, walk from Longfumen, and the distance from Yongshou Palace is very close.

Kangxi didn't say anything after hearing this, he was indeed planning to go back to the Qianqing Palace, and it was only incidental to bring Wu Anning, and it was also on his whim, thinking that today she said she was not feeling well, and the Yongshou Palace was too far away, it might take an hour to walk, Just let the word pass.

Unknowingly, Kangxi has been able to take pity on Wu Anning in daily trivial matters. If other people know this, let alone other little nobles, even if the former queen is here, they will start to pay attention to Wu Anning and prepare to suppress it.

When the queen is in the position, the harem needs to be balanced. You can stand out, but you must not monopolize the favor, otherwise the queen's position will be unstable.But now there is no queen, and even the palace affairs are divided among the four concubines. The four concubines have mutual interests and grievances. Wu Anning is the exclusive favor.

The distance from Qianqing Palace to Ningshou Palace is not far, and the time for a stick of incense will arrive. If Wu Anning hadn't walked from Qianqing Palace, Wu Anning would have to go around the East Sixth Palace, and then pass through the huge imperial garden, as well as Yikun Palace and Chuxiu Palace. Going back to her own palace would definitely be a living punishment.

After getting off the dragon chariot, Kangxi returned to Qianqing Palace, and Wu Anning returned to Yongshou Palace from Longfu Gate, which was much earlier than Concubine Yi's return.

Even so, Wu Anning also felt tired.

After all, today she did walk a long way, and sat motionless for a long time, her body was a little stiff.

"Go find an imperial doctor and tell me that I'm not feeling well." Wu Anning thought, in addition to revealing the matter of pregnancy, he can also win some benefits for himself. After pregnancy, he will go from Yongshou Palace to Ningshou Palace. According to Kangxi's sympathy, it should be easy to lift the sedan chair.

"What's wrong, little master?"

Wu Anning smiled and said to Yun Ping: "It's just that I get tired easily these few days and always want to sleep. I think I'd better find a doctor first."

Yun Ping didn't realize that Wu Anning's fatigue in the past few days was due to her body, because Wu Anning seemed to be in good health, and she attributed her fatigue to the fact that she was too tired to serve the emperor... There were also some days when the emperor came to Yongshou Palace in this half month So many times, when the two of you rested, she and Gu Wenxing were outside watching the night, so it was absolutely clear. If you toss so late every day, can you not be tired the next day?
"The slave is going here."

Wu Anning nodded, and then she huddled on the kang and sat on the couch with her eyes closed and rested. Yun Ping made a fox fur blanket to cover her, and then told Fu Lu to find an imperial doctor.

Fu Lu was also taken aback. The young master invited the imperial doctor because he was doing well, and he didn't dare to delay, so he ran to the imperial hospital in person.

The imperial hospital is far away, and the imperial physicians practice medicine in the harem, whether it is to avoid suspicion or travel, and they rarely appear in the harem. Basically, the time is set every month to check the safety pulse. Report it to the attending imperial physician, and the imperial physician will come to have a look every day or three days.

However, those with low status and unfavorable status are not so lucky. It is very inconvenient for the imperial physician to come to treat diseases and dispense medicines. This is also the reason why low-ranking concubines tend to die silently.

Because of the inconvenience, Wu Anning told Kangxi to wait for the Ping'an pulse in a few days instead of asking the imperial physician, after all, she is just a noble person.
