Film and television actress, she has many children and good fortune
Chapter 257: Legend of Zhen Huan - Shen Meizhuang 19
Today is the day when the Emperor appoints Concubine Hua as Imperial Concubine. Even though I have a splitting headache, it is even more severe than last time.
The queen still endured the pain and sat up from the bed, letting Jianqiu put thick makeup on her face, which barely covered her haggard face.
Jianqiu saw that the queen was in a bad mood due to the headache, so she advised: "Your Majesty, you are in such a state of pain, why don't you take a day off today and skip the visits from the other ladies in the palace."
"No, if I show that I am in a headache, wouldn't that make Nian proud?" The Queen rejected Jianqiu's suggestion without even thinking about it.
She didn't want Nian to laugh at her, and she was also worried that after Nian became a noble concubine, she would become even more arrogant and domineering and would seize power in the palace from her.
Seeing that persuasion failed, Jianqiu followed the empress to the greeting hall.
The Queen deliberately suggested that Concubine Hua follow Concubine Wan's example and give birth to a child, which made Concubine Hua, who had not been pregnant for many years, unhappy.
Speaking of children, Concubine Qi, who has the Third Prince as her wife, would naturally join in the conversation. Moreover, Concubine Qi is also a person who knows how to finish off the enemy. She has the Third Prince and the Queen's support. Even though Concubine Nian is already a noble concubine, she is not afraid at all when it comes to confronting Noble Concubine Hua, and she is always adept at rubbing salt into Concubine Hua's wounds.
Nian Shilan is no pushover either. Except when facing Zhen, she has never lost in a confrontation with anyone else. She knows Concubine Qi's weaknesses well and uses the Third Prince's stupidity to hit back at Concubine Qi.
Concubine Qi was so angry that she couldn't speak.
The smile on Nian Shilan's face became more and more proud, and she mentioned Wanpin again.
Although Concubine Wan resolved the situation cleverly, she still offended Concubine Qi because she was too late to fill the hole dug by Concubine Hua.
Watching the concubines below engaged in verbal battle, the queen raised her hand to support her forehead. This time her headache not only did not get better, but it became more painful because the time for paying respects was prolonged.
I secretly felt lucky that I had acted early and had made all the necessary preparations in the past few days.
Zhang Mi had said that Huipin was weak, and the fetus in her belly was overnourished and underdeveloped, so there was a high probability that she would have a difficult delivery, and the midwife had also taken care of it.
As for Concubine Wan, she was not worried because she had the Shuheng glue prepared by An.
Hearing these people talking about children, the queen felt her headache getting worse. Although she was the queen, she had no children. Looking at the listless Concubine Qi below her, she suddenly thought of a perfect plan.
Even though she had a headache that made her dizzy, she would not allow herself to miss the opportunity to implement her plan because of the headache, and she forced herself to stay awake until the greetings were over.
He left Concubine Qi alone, and took advantage of the fact that Concubine Qi had just had an unpleasant argument with Concubine Wan when she was paying her respects. He held a grudge against Concubine Wan and took the initiative to bring up the fact that Emperor Shunzhi had a young child and that the baby died in the cradle, in order to induce Concubine Qi to take action against Concubine Wan.
After hearing what the Queen said, Concubine Qi was worried that if Wanpin gave birth to a child, her Third Prince would no longer be valued by the Emperor, and she began to think of getting rid of the child in Wanpin's belly.
The Queen knew that Concubine Qi was stupid, and only by saying the right words could she guide Concubine Qi to do something that would harm the baby in Concubine Wan's belly.
Seeing that Concubine Qi had heard him, he said he was not feeling well and asked her to leave.
Concubine Qi was standing under the oleander tree, thinking about how to get rid of the piece of meat in Concubine Wan's belly.
An Lingrong pretended to pass by and took the initiative to remind Concubine Qi that the oleander flower juice and oleander pollen were poisonous and could harm the heart and the fetus. She also pretended to sigh that fortunately there was no oleander in Concubine Wan's Sui Yuxuan.
With the previous preparation, An Lingrong often went to Suiyuxuan.
Concubine Qi had chestnut cake with oleander added to it made, and had Cuiguo send it to Suiyuxuan. An Lingrong happened to be there, and she pointed out that poisonous oleander was added to the chestnut cake, reminding Zhen Huan who was about to eat it.
When Zhen Huan found out that Concubine Qi had poisoned her child, she was furious. She stood up angrily and was about to go to the Yangxin Palace to complain to the Emperor.
She had only taken two steps when she was stopped by An Lingrong. An Lingrong used the possibility of the Third Prince ascending the throne in the future to dissuade Zhen Huan from complaining to the Emperor and instead let the Queen handle the matter.
The Queen successfully took the custody of the Third Prince from Concubine Qi by scolding and threatening her, and punished Concubine Qi, which also served as an explanation to Zhen Huan.
After half a month, the Queen's headache finally went away. This time she had something on Concubine Qi, so she was not afraid that Concubine Qi would disobey her in the future. However, after thinking about it over and over again for half a month, she was still worried that Zhen Huan would tell the Emperor about it, so she had to comfort Concubine Wan herself.
The Queen instructed Jianqiu, "Jianqiu, please invite Concubine Wan to Jingren Palace."
Jianqiu: "It's the Queen."
Not long after, Jianqiu invited Concubine Wan to Jingren Palace.
Queen: "I have been thinking about it for a few days, but I am still worried, so I asked you to talk to me."
Zhen Huan: "Yes."
Ever since the Queen's migraine relapsed, Zhen Huan had asked Wen Shichu and knew that the Queen was plotting against the Nian family. The Queen was not as kind as she seemed. After thinking about it carefully over the past few days, she realized that the Queen was so scheming and her secret plots were more terrifying than Concubine Hua's openly evil and vicious behavior.
When meeting the Queen this time, Zhen Huan seemed much more restrained and became more wary of the Queen.
The Queen: "I have wronged you in the end, but I have no choice but to let you go. The Emperor can only be at ease in the court if the harem is not in chaos. The matter of Concubine Qi affects the entire court. If those people with ulterior motives in the court knew about it, I am afraid there would be another uproar."
Zhen Huan: "Fortunately Lingrong discovered it quickly, otherwise both I and the baby in my belly would have been in danger."
The Queen felt relieved when she saw that Zhen trusted An so much.
"An Changzai is very considerate. I feel relieved to have her accompany you. You must be extra careful about your health in the future."
Zhen Huan: "I will be extra careful."
Queen: "This year is different from usual. There is also drought outside the palace. The Emperor and I have decided to go out of the palace to pray for rain at the Temple of Heaven, and then stay at Ganlu Temple for a few days to pray for the country. All the affairs of the harem will be handed over to Concubine Hua to take care of, and Concubine Jing will also assist."
Zhen Huan: "I will stay in the palace to take care of my baby and will not go out unless necessary."
The Queen said: "That's good. I am worried about Huipin. Wanpin, please go with me to Chengqian Palace to check on Huipin."
"Yes." Zhen Huan responded in a low voice.
The Queen and Concubine Wan came to Chengqian Palace together.
The Queen noticed that Shen had become a lot rounder, but her belly was frighteningly big. No, it was not frightening, but rather abnormally big.
Zhang Mi only said that Huibin's belly was big, but he did not report to her that Huibin's belly was so big.
"Your servant greets Her Majesty the Queen." Shen Meizhuang tried to get up, but the Queen raised her hand and pushed her down.
"No need to be so polite, Concubine Hui. You look much better, but why is your belly so big? Have you seen the imperial physician?" the Queen asked with concern.
She had a bad suspicion in her mind. Huipin's belly was so big that she might have more than one child. Zhang Mi could even diagnose whether the baby was a boy or a girl. It was impossible for him not to diagnose that Shen only had one baby. There was only one possibility: Zhang Mi betrayed her and helped Shen to conceal it.
Shen Meizhuang: "Thank you for your concern, Queen. I asked the imperial physician to see me, and he said that the baby in my belly is fine."
"That's good." The Queen's smile has never disappeared since she entered Chengqian Palace, but if you look closely, you will find that the smile does not reach her eyes.
Zhen Huan looked at her with a smile: "Sister Mei is about to give birth."
Shen Meizhuang placed her hand on her belly and replied softly, "Yes, the due date is in these few days."
The emperor knew that Concubine Hui and Concubine Wan had a deep grudge against Concubine Hua. One was almost four months pregnant and the other was about to give birth. Nian also lost Shen's child. Shen became emotionally unstable whenever she saw Nian.
The Queen will go out of the palace with him. There will only be the Queen Mother in the palace. The Queen Mother is not in good health and there is no one to protect them. He is really worried.
Before leaving the palace, the Emperor specifically gave Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan some instructions. At the moment of departure, except for Shen Meizhuang who was unable to move, all the concubines went to see her off.
