Chapter 18 The Hidden Little Palace Maid vs. the Cold-blooded Emperor Without an Heir 18
The sky is clear and the morning sun is rising. Outside the window, little birds are jumping on the branches and chirping.
While dressing up in the early morning, Dongmei pinned a red hairpin into Mengjiao's hair while praising her for her beauty like a fairy.
Meng Jiao couldn't help but look up at herself in the mirror. The moon-white cicada-wing gauze was lightly draped over her body. Her face no longer had the youthful beauty of the past, but instead had a hint of mature charm that was enough to shame a young girl in her prime.
It was June, and the weather outside was already hot. The Ministry of Internal Affairs had to deliver fresh ice every day, but Meng Jiao still felt hot.
"Jiaojiao, you are pregnant now, you can't be so cold, be careful that the cold air enters your body, it will hurt you and the baby."
Lu Xueyan and Meng Jiao are now good sisters. She comes to Meng Jiao whenever she has time and either embroiders handkerchief purses for her or various small things for the birth of the two babies in Meng Jiao's belly.
Meng Jiao herself got accurate information from the system and was not worried at all. However, Jun Ye and Lu Xueyan had to control her eight hundred times a day.
Although she was unhappy with her pout, she knew they were all doing it for her own good.
Dongmei, who was standing by, was waving a simple fan made by Mengjiao and tried to persuade them.
"Your Majesty, I heard that one third of the ice in the palace has been used by Guanju Palace. The Ministry of Internal Affairs is worried that the ice stored last year is not enough, and they reported it to the emperor the other day."
Meng Jiao paused, no wonder, she said it was strange, this ice has a certain number,
"Dongmei, don't tell me that the ice in the palace is all stored in winter."
Dongmei nodded.
"Yes, what do you think, madam?"
Meng Jiao got up and went straight to the Imperial Hospital. She remembered that saltpeter, also known as Xiaoshi, was a kind of traditional Chinese medicine in ancient times.
Behind her, Consort Xian and a group of palace maids and guards were supporting her. When they passed by the Cining Palace, Empress Dowager Wei in the room asked,
"Who is making so much noise?"
"Your Highness, it's Concubine Jiao, the one in the palace who is pregnant with the royal heir."
Queen Mother Wei was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke,
"How many months are you pregnant now?"
"My lady, the baby is now four months pregnant. Look at her belly. It's like a five-month pregnant woman. The doctor said it's twins. I think she'll give birth early."
"Well, I'll go and send some ice cubes to Lantingyuan when I have time."
Although the nanny didn't understand, she still obeyed.
With Meng Jiao's persistence, saltpeter ice was successfully made. Jun Ye embraced Meng Jiao, looked at the ice cubes frozen by the little guy yesterday with curiosity, and praised them.
"How did Jiaojiao come up with this idea? She is so smart. Doesn't it make your husband ashamed?"
Meng Jiao has become somewhat immune to his praise mode, ever since she mentioned the problem of the river when he was reviewing documents last time. Now, no matter what she does, he has to praise her. However, a man who can provide emotional value is still great.
"Hehe, wait for me, Your Majesty. I will make you a bunch of delicious food next."
"With this ice?"
"Well, just wait and see."
.....
Because of the ice-making method, everyone in the harem had enough ice. Jun Ye took the opportunity to replenish the national treasury.
Later, when it became popular, the people knew that the method of making ice came from the concubine in the palace who was pregnant with the heir to the throne. Jun Ye took the opportunity to build momentum for her and spread the news that the child was diagnosed and it rained in the north.
For a time, Meng Jiao's reputation for kindness, virtue and good fortune spread among the people.
Meng Jiao in the palace froze popsicles, fruit smoothies, milk smoothies, iced green bean soup and milk tea, and also iced fruit salad. Life was wonderful for a while.
Jun Ye didn't know where she came up with so many ideas. He just followed Meng Jiao around every day. When he saw that she had almost finished eating, he would start to make jokes and snatch her ice cream.
The imperial physician said that although her fetus is now firmly seated, there is still a lot to pay attention to. The hottest days of summer are coming soon, and if she is taken to the palace then she won't feel so hot.
In the harem, the ladies from several palaces gathered together, drinking the iced milk tea that Meng Jiao had the imperial kitchen prepare for each palace, and chatting under the shade of a tree.
"Oh~ It feels so good. This is the first time I've used ice like this in all these years. Even when it was popular at home before, it was only the one in the house."
"Who says it's not true? I heard that these were all thought up by the Imperial Concubine. No wonder she is favored by the Emperor. Tsk tsk."
"Hey, I heard that the Imperial Concubine has a lot of food. Last time I saw the maid of the Concubine Xian, she was holding a lot of things I had never seen before. They looked delicious." Concubine Jing took a sip of milk tea and said with a longing look in her eyes.
"How about we give it a try? It's been more than half a year now, and I feel like the Imperial Concubine doesn't take us seriously at all. Why don't we try to get a hug from the Imperial Concubine?" The more Concubine Hui talked, the more she thought it was feasible. She exchanged a glance with Concubine Jing who had stood up.
The remaining few people took a quick look and thought...will this work?
After discussion, a few people decided that they would take the lead and go to pay a visit tomorrow with generous gifts, as it is wrong not to hit someone who smiles at you.
On the second day, the two of them really went to Meng Jiao's Guanju Palace. Meng Jiao held her belly and looked at the two of them. She called the system to check, as if she had seen these two people somewhere before.
"Your Highness, we are sisters. We were the two who delivered the cakes to the Imperial Study earlier..."
Meng Jiao patted her head. She felt her mind was getting more and more confused recently.
"Oh, now I remember, you were the one holding the cakes."
Concubine Hui twitched with embarrassment.
"My lady, it's me..."
"Excuse me, come on, sit down and have some tea."
Meng Jiao was embarrassed. The system had just scanned her and it was clear that the two people had no ill intentions this time. However, she still did not let her guard down.
Some time ago, my younger brother discovered that the Queen Mother had been secretly taking care of the woman in Lanting Garden. Although he was thinking about the original owner's wishes, Meng Jiao knew that she couldn't be impatient at this time.
Concubine Ning is already at the end of her strength, and this final blow must make her unable to fight back from now on. As for the Queen Mother, she still has to test Jun Ye's attitude, but if she really dares to attack her, then she can't be blamed for being disrespectful to the elderly.
In July, Jun Ye's long-prepared summer palace vacation was finally on the agenda. Meng Jiao had a new playmate recently, and excitedly took out the mahjong she had played only once before.
After Mahjong was ready, she taught it to the palace servants. However, she found it boring and stopped playing.
It just so happens that all the people who came here recently were very interested, and after getting interested, they stayed here every day.
That day, Jun Ye reorganized the people who were to protect Meng Jiao all the way, and felt completely relieved. He got up and went to Guanju Palace to pick up his Jiao Jiao.
Jiaojiao has been having a lot of fun recently, and thanks to the protection of the secret guards, he really doesn't want to come into contact with other women, so he only kisses and hugs her when she is free.
In Guanju Palace, Meng Jiao had long forgotten that today was the day to go to the temporary palace to escape the summer heat. Early in the morning, several ladies came to her palace to have morning tea, and then they prepared to win back the golden beans that they lost to Meng Jiao yesterday. Of course, Meng Jiao accepted all the requests.
Before sitting at the table, Meng Jiao was still shouting, "If you lean against the window, you will lose everything; if you lean against the door, you will win a lot." Today, Meng Jiao dreamed of sitting at the door to make a fortune.
The result is predictable. As the fight went on, the people at the same table didn't dare to move. Meng Jiao didn't understand why and called for them to hurry up.
Jun Ye's voice came faintly from behind.
"Jiaojiao, are you having fun?"
Meng Jiao paused as she reached for the cards. Oh no!
With a roll of his eyes, he turned around and smiled flatteringly.
"I'm earning gold beans for the emperor, hehe."
"You're so talkative." Jun Ye said this but his mood was obviously better. He picked up the little guy and went back to the bedroom. He left a few concubines from other palaces behind, and when they saw the two men enter the room, they ran away.
