Quick Wear: The paranoid beauty grabs the waist and spoils her

When Biling left, she glared at Nanxiang angrily, and Nanxiang readily knelt down to thank her for seeing her off.

After the two groups of people had gone far away, Nan Xiang stood up, her knees were already numb.

But she didn't care much, she had gotten used to it over the past five years.

Nan Xiang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh.

I hope Concubine Li can forget about other things. Lady Liu's affairs can distract her a little and make her forget about such a small fry as me.

However, the malicious look in the eyes of the senior palace maid in front of Concubine Li when she left still frightened Nan Xiang.

Will Biling cause trouble later?

Nan Xiang thought to herself, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that what happened tonight was not simple.

But she didn't want to think about it any further, for fear that if she figured it out, it would be gone the next day.

Fortunately, Concubine Liu is giving birth tonight, and fortunately the Queen has granted her special grace.

If it weren't for the eunuch Sun under the Queen's command who came rushing over, she would have been seriously injured if not killed. After receiving those twenty beatings, even if she survived, she would have had to lie in bed for three months.

The Queen is merciful, Nan Xiang silently prayed in her heart, clasping her hands together.

Find an opportunity to thank the Queen.

Nan Xiang made a decision in her heart.

But she is just a little eunuch now, so she can only bury her gratitude deep in her heart and wait to repay him in the future.

Nan Xiang looked at the moonlight and immediately stepped forward to check the magnolia flowers that Qiu En had placed aside.

Nan Xiang checked carefully and found that the magnolia potted plants were not damaged. She breathed a sigh of relief again.

so far so good.

If the magnolia flower is damaged, even if she escapes Concubine Li's harassment this time, she will still be punished by Concubine Wan and the Shang Gong Bureau.

Nan Xiang thought it was getting late, so she immediately picked up the magnolia flower and quickened her pace.

As for the disappearance of the two young eunuchs, Nan Xiang didn't care much. After all, the timing of their departure was too coincidental.

As soon as they disappeared, she bumped into Concubine Li.

It would be strange if there weren't ghosts.

But she couldn't figure out how she had offended these two people.

These two people just met today when they were delivering flowers together.

Forget it, don’t think about it, don’t worry about these things.

Just be careful next time.

Nan Xiang walked out of the bamboo forest and suddenly heard two familiar voices again.

There is a light before my eyes.

Nan Xiang narrowed her eyes, opened them again and looked at the person who came, and couldn't help but sneer in her heart.

"Xiao Xiangzi!"

Nan Xiang heard the eunuch holding another pot of magnolia flowers calling her, and she nodded slightly: "Yes, Xiao Zhuzi, Xiao Shunzi."

Although she was somewhat wary in her heart, she still had to be polite on the surface. Nan Xiang greeted the two young eunuchs just like she did during the day.

In short, maintain the status quo for now, avoid it if possible after sending the flowers, and find a chance to get to the bottom of the matter.

"Xiao Xiangzi, why are you so slow?" Xiao Zhuzi held the lamp, reached out and patted Nan Xiang's shoulder and asked.

Nan Xiang originally wanted to step back to avoid being touched by the small pillar, but after thinking it over, she decided not to move.

Just keep quiet and observe.

Nan Xiang replied, "This section of the road is darker, and the flowers I sent to Wan Zhaoyi are very precious. I am not as good as you, Xiao Zhuzi, and Xiao Shunzi, so naturally I am behind."

Xiao Zhuzi looked at Nan Xiang's thin body and nodded in agreement: "That's right."

Nan Xiang took the opportunity to ask, "When I walked into the bamboo forest, I didn't see you two. I was alone. I was really scared. How come you two disappeared so quickly?"

The three of them chatted on the way to Qixia Palace.

Xiao Zhuzi originally wanted to ask Nan Xiang indirectly whether she met anyone on the path in the bamboo forest, but he was afraid that if he asked this, Nan Xiang would suspect him again, and he was conflicted.

Hearing Nan Xiang's question suddenly, he breathed a sigh of relief and spoke out the draft he had prepared in his mind:

"Xiao Shunzi went to the toilet. It was dark and I accompanied him. Don't you think so, Xiao Shunzi?"

Xiao Zhuzi signaled Xiao Shunzi with his eyes.

Xiao Shunzi nodded quickly and replied: "Oh, yes, yes, I'm afraid of the dark, so I naturally troubled Xiao Zhuzi to take me there."

Nan Xiang sneered in her heart, said "Oh" and said no more. Instead, she walked faster and faster, overtaking Xiao Zhuzi and walking in front of him.

Xiao Zhuzi was relieved when he saw Nan Xiang didn't ask any more questions, but when he saw Nan Xiang walking faster and faster, he asked:

"Xiao Xiangzi, why are you walking so fast?"

Nan Xiang answered in front of Xiao Zhuzi: "It's not that I walked too slowly and was left behind by you, so I have to walk faster."

Xiao Zhuzi: “Oh.”

"Why are you so slow? If you don't hurry up, Empress Zhaoyi will blame you."

Xiao Zhuzi was choked by the "boomerang" just now and didn't know what to say.

He was a little worried whether Nan Xiang had discovered something, but when he saw the innocent smile on Nan Xiang's face after she turned around, he felt relieved.

He was making a fuss out of nothing. Little Xiangzi has always been simple and is just a 13-year-old child.

Moreover, Xiao Xiangzi was just giving a "friendly reminder". Wan Zhaoyi always loved to play with flowers and plants, and among these flowers and plants, she particularly loved magnolias.

The current emperor learned that two pots of magnolias had bloomed and were growing very well in the Siyuan Department, so he naturally sent someone to deliver the two pots of flowers over.

After all, Concubine Wan has been quite favored in the past three months, so they still have to be careful.

After Xiao Zhuzi sorted out his thoughts, he gave Nan Xiang a complex but sincere smile: "Thank you, Xiao Xiangzi."

Nan Xiang naturally accepted this thank you.

Although she didn't understand why this person wanted to thank her, she still had to accept the verbal thanks. To survive in the palace, one had to be flexible.

This was taught to her by Eunuch Zheng, the head of the Shanggong Bureau, and was also something she had figured out from her five years of experience in the palace.

Soon, Nan Xiang and his team delivered the magnolia flowers to Qixia Palace within the specified time.

Although it was getting late, Concubine Wan was not in Qixia Palace, and only palace servants were present there.

Aunt Zhao from Qixia Palace checked it, asked Nan Xiang to put it in the designated location, gave Nan Xiang and the others some rewards, and let them go.

As soon as Nan Xiang walked out of Qixia Palace, she parted ways with Xiao Zhuzi and Xiao Shunzi.

Nan Xiang weighed the purse, and the broken silver and a gold leaf inside made a crisp sound, and Nan Xiang was very happy.

Although there were some unexpected events during this trip, Nan Xiang felt that it was worth it as she could get extra rewards.

No wonder Wan Zhaoyi was promoted directly from a noble lady to the head of the Nine Concubines in just three months.

Wan Zhaoyi was very popular in the palace, except for Concubine Li. This was not only reflected in her interactions with other concubines, but also in her treatment of palace maids and eunuchs. She was both firm and gentle, and generous.

The young palace maids and eunuchs from every department were very happy when they received the assignment to work in Qixia Palace.

This is also the reason why Nan Xiang did not refuse when Si Yuansi asked her to borrow her to deliver magnolia flowers during the day.

Otherwise, given her relationship with Eunuch Zheng, if the Shangqin Bureau wanted to borrow her to help deliver something, Eunuch Zheng could just refuse.

Nan Xiang knew that Concubine Wan was not in Qixia Palace, so she must be with Concubine Liu.

But this has nothing to do with her for now. It's just that when Concubine Liu gives birth smoothly, I'm afraid the situation in the palace will change again.

Ever since the queen gave birth to the fourth prince, no concubine in the palace has successfully given birth to a prince or princess in the past five years.

This was the first time in five years, and Emperor Chengming was naturally very happy.

If a prince is born, Concubine Liu's position will probably be promoted. How can this not make the concubines who have no news of pregnancy envious and jealous?

Even so, when Lady Liu gave birth, the concubines who were able to do so went to wait for her. Those who were not able to wait for Lady Liu also sent gifts to express their feelings.

Even Concubine Xu and the Empress arrived early and were waiting outside. Emperor Chengming had turned over a sign early in the day to stay at Concubine Li's Yuqing Palace, but when he got the news from Concubine Liu, he changed his route and headed towards the Yonghe Palace where Concubine Xian was.

Because Concubine Liu lived in a side hall of Yonghe Palace to recuperate during her pregnancy.

When Concubine Liu took the initiative, Concubine Xian naturally notified the Emperor and the other palaces early on.

She also arranged people to help. After all, Concubine Liu had always been well-behaved, and she already had the third prince by her side, so naturally she didn't pay too much attention to Concubine Liu's pregnancy.

She has done what she should do, so His Majesty will naturally not lose out on any benefits from her.

When Concubine Li rushed over, she only heard a loud cry coming from the palace.

After a while, the palace door opened, and a midwife ran out holding the newborn prince to congratulate the emperor and the concubines:

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! The beauty has given birth to a healthy prince. The beauty is a little weak after giving birth and is resting."

The grandmother who came to congratulate had been delivering babies in the palace for more than 20 years. Seeing that Emperor Chengming was very happy, she naturally handed the little prince to him in a very tactful manner, and patiently instructed Emperor Chengming on the precautions of holding the baby. She was extremely sensible.

Emperor Chengming was very pleased and promoted Concubine Liu on the spot - she was promoted to Xiuyuan, moved to Zhongcui Palace, and gave her many rewards.

The queen then gave many rewards as well.

Naturally, other concubines also added some things on the original basis.

All of this was sent to Zhongcui Palace.

The fact that Concubine Liu gave birth to a child and was promoted to a higher position in such a grand manner naturally made all the concubines grit their teeth.

But his expression was naturally warm and considerate congratulations.
