Queen's Road in the Red House

Zhou Ling told Xu Ying's jokes for a while, and then got up to leave.

Unexpectedly, when I got up this time, I felt dizzy and swayed to the side. Fortunately, the maid helped me in time.Everyone in the palace thought that Princess An was joking, and they were about to faint. It wasn't until Zhou Ling's face turned pale that Mo Ran hurriedly went outside to invite Zhou Huangwei over.

This clinic diagnosed a happy pulse.

Seeing Zhou Ling surprised, happy and dazed, Empress Yang couldn't help but said: "You are too careless, you are still walking around under the sun on such a day. Also, why didn't you invite the imperial physician to see it earlier? "

Women in the palace are most concerned about pregnancy. Once the monthly letter is late, they will invite the imperial physician to look at it. Even if the month is not clear, they will follow the pregnancy precautions.

Zhou Ling blushed but did not speak.

Daiyu immediately thought that in the past ten or so days, there has been a lot of turmoil in the palace, and the queen's poisoning has involved more than a dozen imperial physicians in the imperial hospital.So the concubine in the palace endured a little discomfort in order to avoid causing trouble, and would not go to the imperial hospital to invite someone at this juncture.

Concubine Zhou was recommended by He Yushi, who was not open-eyed, as a candidate to be in charge of Fengyin a few days ago. Zhou Ling was naturally more cautious than others.

It's just that it's hard to say why.So Daiyu rescued her and said to Empress Yang, "Queen Mother, this is the first time that sister-in-law is pregnant, so I guess I'm still covered."

Empress Yang nodded, and said to Zhou Huangwei: "You can send Princess An back to the noble concubine yourself, so that she won't worry about it. You all just keep quiet."

--

Xin Hongcheng walked out of the duty room of the Ministry of Officials, looked at it from a distance, and liberated his eyes from all kinds of petty words.

Unexpectedly, when he looked at it, he saw Xin Hongyu walking out of the duty room of the Ministry of War opposite.

"Brother, why are you in such a hurry?"

Xin Hongyu's face was full of red light, like a red sun running towards Xin Hongcheng: "Fourth brother, fourth brother! Your sister-in-law has diagnosed a happy pulse."

Xin Hongcheng cupped his hands: "Congratulations, big brother, I'm going to be a father." But...he wondered: "Didn't the palace rules say that you can only say it after three months?"

The eldest prince is now dressed in the uniform of a prince, and he said happily: "Mother and concubine are also crazy with joy, she has forgotten the rules, and now it has been spread all over the palace, you are the only one who knows."

Zhou Ling has been in the palace for nearly two years, and the number of gods worshiped by the imperial concubine has also increased day by day, and gradually included dozens of well-known statues of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas and Arhats in her small Buddhist hall, and even asked for a piece of Taishan stone from Mount Tai. Come.

I heard that recently she has included in her daily worship, not to mention the Taishan old lady, but even the sage Confucius. I don’t know how the sage Confucius felt when he received this incense for a child.

Now, once the long-cherished wish is fulfilled, the noble concubine is dizzy with joy.

Empress Yang remembered to ask Zhou Huangwei to send the pregnant woman back quietly, but the imperial concubine herself immediately began to release the rewards. When everyone in the palace received the rewards and gathered to kowtow, the imperial concubine finally realized that Zhou Ling's pregnancy was only two months old Woolen cloth!

It's just that the words were splashed out, and the imperial concubine lost caution in her words, so she was going to make up for it in actions.

Anyway, everyone knew it, so they simply asked the Queen Mother, and directly pointed an imperial physician over to take care of Zhou Ling day and night.

--

It has been nearly two years since the four princes got married one after another, and this is the first good news to come out.From the Supreme Emperor onwards, the rewards were doubled according to the standards of princes and concubines.

The freshly baked King An was very excited, he patted Xin Hongcheng on the shoulder and said: "I heard from the little eunuch who sent the message that your sister-in-law was diagnosed in front of the empress and the princess, and the doctor Zhou sent it back in person. Thank you so much, your sister-in-law will be happy as soon as you get married."

Xin Hongcheng was stunned by his causal logic.

Wang An patted him hard twice before he was about to leave: "I'll treat you to a drink some other day."

Xin Hongcheng suddenly felt blessed and pulled his elder brother back.

He met his grandfather and uncle two days ago, and the two of them had a deep and painful reflection on the matter of Zhong's daughter going to Beijing privately, and then explained that only the wife of the eldest son was so stupid, and that the stupid lady had been deprived of her housekeeping rights And diplomatic power, this trip to Kyoto left the wife of the eldest son in Fujian to "recover from illness".

After many years, Xin Hongcheng saw Zhong's family again, and his mood was calm.Since we can't talk about feelings, we have to talk about reason.

Through a brief meeting, Xin Hongcheng's rationality told him that this grandfather and uncle are people who are good at thinking, discerning, talented and knowledgeable.

Zhong Zhen handed over the first olive branch, with an extremely kind attitude, never putting on airs like an uncle at all: "His Royal Highness and the Crown Princess have suffered unfair injustice by fate, the ministers are heartbroken, and must try to relieve His Highness' worries. Now arrangements have been made. That's right, it depends on what His Highness wants."

Xin Hongcheng smiled: "Thank you, grandpa and uncle, but you don't need to rush this matter, it would be bad if you show your craftsmanship."

The eyes of the two masters of the Zhong family were bright: it's hard for His Highness the Crown Prince to be so calm at the age of 15.With their ominous reputations on their backs, both themselves and their wives can endure and take pictures slowly.

"Okay, if your highness has the right time, please let us know at any time."

The canonization ceremony is scheduled to be in January, and Lord Zhong Hou and the son have already signed the papers and asked for instructions to stay in the capital to watch the ceremony.Not only did the emperor agree, but he also summoned the two into the palace, comforted him warmly, and even called Lord Zhonghou his father-in-law, which made Lord Zhonghou terrified.

--

Xin Hongcheng suddenly thought that now is a good opportunity, so he grabbed his eldest brother.

King An didn't understand, so he said, "Fourth brother, do you have anything else to do? If you want to give a gift, just ask someone to send it to me. Now there is no need to be polite."

Xin Hongcheng didn't let go: "Brother, what you said just now, you can also mention it to the imperial concubine later."

King An has already forgotten: "Which sentence?"

"As soon as I got married, my sister-in-law said that I was happy." Xin Hongcheng fooled him: "The imperial concubine is an elder in the palace. If you mention this, the empress will naturally like it more when she sees the princess."

King An said he understood, and he must bring the words to Concubine Zhou when he goes back.

Xin Hongcheng knew that his eldest brother had always been a careless person, and asking him to help might add to the chaos.But the imperial concubine is a shrewd person. After hearing this sentence, as long as she wants to reconcile with the prince, she will naturally know what to do.

Sure enough, Concubine Zhou understood after a little thought.

Because of He Yushi's recommendation last time, the imperial concubine has always had a pimple in her heart, especially after Empress Yang really abdicated, she was afraid that Xin Hongcheng would not show it on the surface, but in the future this matter would be blamed on her and her son.

Now that Xin Hongcheng showed his willingness to ask her for help, the imperial concubine felt relieved.

--

"So the best way to get closer to a person is not necessarily to be kind to the other person. Sometimes, expressing the need for the other person is the more effective way."

Daiyu was looking at the account of the autumn palace people's clothes sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Hearing what Xin Hongcheng said, she pursed her lips and smiled: "Anyway, you always have countless reasons. It's just that it can be done like this? It doesn't count that my sister-in-law is pregnant anyway. I'm on my head."

Counting her fingers, when Zhou Ling was pregnant, she was still embroidering dowry in Shaojingxuan.

Xin Hongcheng sat across from her, holding an ice bowl to eat: "This is not how it is calculated. If we talk about the root cause, Xin Hongying's psychological distortion has to be counted from the age of five. The sister-in-law's incident is just an introduction, mouse Pull the shovel, big head behind."

Daiyu thought of this and asked: "You want to use the fact that Mrs. Wu's daughter-in-law is also pregnant to refute others' comments about my bad luck?"

This time Xin Hongcheng was confused: "Who is Mrs. Wu?"

Daiyu said angrily, "The lady who gave us the wine is the sister-in-law of Princess Jing'an."

This Mrs. Wu once gave birth to two pairs of dragon and phoenix twins, and she directly made a pair of "good" characters for Wuyi Houfu, which has always been praised by people.

Now she is over forty years old, her sons and daughters are all filial, and her marriages are smooth.As a result, Mrs. Wu became Mrs. Quanfu more and more often. Even if many people couldn't invite her to come forward to work hard, they had to force her to have a glass of wedding wine.

This time for Xin Hongcheng's wedding, Mrs. Wu, relying on her golden signature of a smooth life, successfully squeezed out the other nine candidates and became an important person who offered the wedding wine.

Daiyu just listened to the Queen Mother yesterday, saying that Mrs. Wu's eldest daughter-in-law is pregnant again.

Seeing that Xin Hongcheng couldn't remember, Daiyu snorted: "It's only been a few days, and I even forgot the lady who handed us the wine. In the future, I'm afraid I will forget the people who came to worship with you!"

Xin Hongcheng cried out for injustice: "That's just picked a hipa, how could I ignore my bride and stare at the lady who is delivering wine! I can't remember her name, and I don't care what she looks like." From the looks of it, even if it’s a bigwig in women’s clothing, I probably don’t know about it.”

Only then did Daiyu tell Mrs. Wu to Xin Hongcheng, and then asked, "Don't you want to use the two happy events related to me, sister-in-law and Mrs. Wu, to talk?"

Xin Hongcheng almost bent over laughing, seeing his wife's face was as white as the bright moon, eyes as clear as autumn water, and his heart was soft and sweet, he couldn't help stretching out his hand to gently pinch Daiyu's cheek, and then laughed loudly Get up: "My wife is so cute."

It wasn't until Daiyu laughed so hard that Xin Hongcheng barely stopped, and wiped his eyes while saying: "Why did you think of this? No wonder people say that a wise man is bound to make a mistake, and a wise man is terrible when he is on the edge of his horns." .I want to wash away the dirty water that they framed my daughter-in-law as having a bad life, and I don’t want to make you the number one in the capital and give away your son, Guanyin—it’s okay for my sister-in-law. Then Mrs. Wu’s daughter-in-law is pregnant with us. I can't even hit the pole."

Outside the house, Xiao Luo was taking advantage of the sunny weather to watch the palace people drying ancient books and winter clothes when suddenly she saw the crown prince being pushed out of the door.

Xiaoluo only had time to see a plain white jade hand slam the curtain shut.

She stuck out her tongue, and immediately turned her head to pretend not to see, and continued to concentrate on her job. Well, the girl taught me that you must not look at evil when you enter the palace!

--

It just so happened that two days later it was the fifteenth day, which was the day when the clan and family members entered the palace.

It's just that they are a little embarrassed now. The queen has become a fairy teacher and sees no one when she is sick. Naturally, the crown princess can't see her when she is on the side. Except for the dignified princess who dares to go directly to the gate of Fengyi Palace and expresses that she wants to see it with her own eyes. Other than the patient, others had to salute at the gate of Fengyi Palace.

Jia Min is not the eldest princess, and she didn't want to cause trouble for her daughter, so she simply didn't come in.

Although it is said that the imperial orders do not visit the imperial concubine in the past, but this time it is different. Hearing the good news of Princess An, as long as there is no enmity with the imperial concubine, they must go to congratulate her.

Concubine Zhou was still elated when she mentioned this matter, Zhou Ling was invited out for a walk like a rare animal, and was amazed by others.

She couldn't take it any longer, so she left immediately.

Only the imperial concubine opened the chatter box and talked eloquently: "I was shocked by the previous son. The female doctor Zhou sent Ling'er back in person. I thought someone was committing evil and poisoning others. What's wrong with her? Who I expected such a happy event!"

Then there was an order to accompany the smile: "Your Majesty is worrying too much. The Emperor's Sacred Heart judged that the disaster has already been eliminated. Your Majesty just waits to hold a grandson."

The noble concubine also nodded: "That's right! It's just that the empress was harmed innocently, so it's hard for the princess. She entered the palace as a new daughter-in-law, and she was sick day and night. Everyone was tired and thin, and summer clothes shook her body. What a shame!" It's a pity. It can be seen that no amount of God's will can offset man-made disasters."

When the orders came out, those who were acquainted with each other winked and whispered: "This is a trick to speak to the princess."

The other laughed: "It can be seen that this young concubine has the right time and place, but she is friendly. Even the imperial concubine speaks for her. After all, the daughter-in-law is happy, and she is willing to use the imperial physician who is kind to the concubine."

"That's right, the theory of fate is illusory, it depends on what the boss thinks."

In this world, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.Just as the emperor is weak and his courtiers are strong, so is the harem.

When the empress dowager was in office, she arranged for the wife of the middle of the capital clearly and clearly in 30 to [-] years. Everyone was convinced and admired, and no one dared to make a fuss.

When it came to Empress Yang, some relatives of the clan or concubines bullied her that she was unfavored and straightforward, and her words were not guarded.So he often pinched out a few inappropriate words of Queen Yang and went back to publicize and ridicule him. Although he didn't dare to be disrespectful in person, there were rumors coming in to some extent.So Empress Yang has been really aggrieved and unhappy to be a queen these years.

Now that this younger princess is replaced, although there are many people waiting to flatter her, there are also many people waiting to watch the excitement and stir up trouble.

Just not sure what the above means.

--

Soon Jingzhong Xungui knew the meaning of the above.

Two days later, Mr. Jing Zhaoyin and Kong personally brought a white deer into the palace respectfully and respectfully, and presented a congratulatory form at the same time.

It has been explained from various aspects that because of the emperor's benevolent love for the people, his ruling Qingming and other countless wise and powerful words and deeds, God was moved, and he specially bestowed a pure white deer on the eastern outskirts of the capital.

The sacred deer was discovered by simple villagers, and they reported it to the government with fear and fear. Jing Zhaoyin and the leaders of the five cities' soldiers and horses dispatched together, please return the divine deer and send it to the palace.

Emperor Xuanhe, Longyan Dayue, even stretched out his own dragon claws, took the reins personally, and led them all the way from Mingzheng Palace to Ningshou Palace where the Supreme Emperor lived.

Both His Majesties were very satisfied, and watched the stars at night with the Qin Tianjian.

On the second day of the official history of Qin Tianjian, there was an inscription: The divine deer appeared in the eastern suburbs of the capital, facing the prince of the East Palace. It can be seen that the Supreme Emperor's sages made the country return to its original state, and only then did it receive auspiciousness from heaven.

The emperor was even more joyful, and personally wrote an "Ode to the Deer", and the price of venison jerky in Beijing increased accordingly.

--

Daiyu laughed privately with Xin Hongcheng: "This is your way of fighting poison with poison?"

Xin Hongcheng nodded: "Since they love to believe in gods and ghosts so much, I will return one of them."

Seeing that no one was around, Daiyu asked in a low voice, "Is this prepared by the Marquis of Changyuan?"

Xin Hongcheng blinked, all pure and kind: "Hey? I don't understand what you said. Didn't Mr. Jing Zhao Yinkong report back? That Shenlu is a simple and kind-hearted working people who accidentally discovered it while farming. of."

Daiyu couldn't help poking him twice with her finger: "You're doing these things again! I can tell, but others can't?"

Xin Hongcheng was itchy all over from being poked by her, so he held her in his arms with his backhand and said, "Grandfather and father can't see it, and others will think that he has no eyes. When I come back at night, I will tell you a nice story." The story is called the emperor's new clothes."

Daiyu pushed him: "You also know it's not night? Don't talk about it—the queen mother is still sick. If my clothes are a little messy, I really don't need to see people."

Xin Hongcheng let go of goodness like an exile, and muttered: "Sometimes I also envy my eldest brother and them, they can move out in a few months. In the palace, but they are completely in charge of their own affairs, and people will watch over the province's actions."

Then he said sternly: "I know you are under a lot of pressure these days. If I don't do this before the canonization ceremony, in the future you will take over the palace affairs and hold the phoenix seal. Naturally, you will also see your orders. If you hear something dark inside and out Yin Yang Yang words, wouldn't it be wronged in vain."

--

As September approaches, central Beijing gradually cools down.

Autumn cicadas sing in the trees, and grass insects sing in the wild.

On the way back, Daiyu saw that the pomegranates in the garden were all in bloom, so she stopped and watched.It just so happened that Zhou Huangwei came from the imperial hospital: "Don't look at it, be careful to drop a caterpillar." Then she said to Daiyu: "This pomegranate flower is just for looking at the flowers, it doesn't bear fruit. If you look at the residual flowers, you may see them again." Want to be sad? Why don’t you look at the two big pomegranate trees in the imperial garden, they have already produced bright red fruits, and they are very cute while taking advantage of the green leaves.”

Speaking of Dululu, Daiyu thought of the peony kept in Rongguo Mansion, and missed it a little.

Zhou Xuanwei smiled and said, "It's okay, I just want to be a companion for Shi Taijun. The elderly raise cats and dogs like raising grandchildren."

The two walked back talking and laughing all the way, and entered Tsinghua Hall. Zhou Huangwei saw that the palace people were coming and going, and there were many boxes and cages piled up on the ground, so she asked, "After the canonization ceremony, are you going to move to Chonghua Palace?"

Daiyu nodded: "Actually, I didn't live here for two days, I almost lived in Fengyi Palace."

Zhou Xuanwei took her hand: "Many people say that you are lucky. You have transformed from the fourth prince concubine to the crown prince concubine. I am angry when I hear it. You have been married for less than a month, how many ups and downs have you encountered? You are not crazy Uncles and brothers who are mad are mad sisters-in-law."

Daiyu smiled and said something fair for Xu Ying: "Second sister-in-law is not crazy, at least not completely crazy."

Zhou Xuanwei looked at her for a while, then suddenly reached out and rubbed her back like coaxing a child: "What a poor child, you still have to smile every day."

One sentence made Daiyu almost cry.

People who have been stretched for a long time can't bear such coddled coaxing from others.

In front of Xin Hongcheng, Daiyu really couldn't bear to cry—he was already so busy that he even muttered about the positive things when he was sleeping, and he was struggling to clear himself of the malicious and slanderous fate theory.

Daiyu always wants to show him a smile.

But she is really tired.

During the few days when Empress Yang's life and death were unknown, she stayed by the bed all the time, listening to the slight breathing sound on the bed, and the slightest sound made her shudder; The palace people's attitude of avoiding or probing is like a needle piercing people.

Although Xin Hongcheng was also caught in the rumors, everyone knew that His Royal Highness had a bad temper and was not easy to provoke, so he still treated him with a low eyebrow.But Daiyu is different, people always have a bit of deceitful nature, and relying on the fourth prince's concubine as the new daughter-in-law, she has to respect herself and not get angry easily, so it is inevitable that she will be a little presumptuous.

Mo Ran gave them two bowls of fish fillet soup with milk sauce. Under the tender fish fillets lay a group of glistening mung bean vermicelli.Because I asked the queen mother to get up early, Daiyu didn't need anything when she got up early, so Mo Ran always remembered to prepare a breakfast-like snack for her.

"Physician Zhou is here, so there's no need to keep anyone in the house." Mo Ran and Zhou Huangwei are also very familiar, and their smiles are relaxed.

"Don't keep anyone, the two of us can just talk by ourselves."

Mo Ran blessed the blessing, and joked: "Yes, Mr. Zhou." Then he withdrew and stared at the palace servants to pack things with Xiao Luo.

Daiyu took a bite of the fish fillet lightly, only to feel that it was so tender and smooth that it melted in the mouth.I couldn't help but think of the fish noodles my mother ordered someone to make for me in Rongguo Mansion, and the freshest fish meat was also spread on top.

"Sister Ming, when I looked at this fish, I thought, it's the same with human beings. When I look at a bowl of Bai Shengsheng fish fillets, I don't know which bite has thorns. The person who pricks them will bleed, and they may not be able to vomit. inferred."

Zhou Mingwei nodded: "That's right, who will eat plain rice for a lifetime without sand in it?"

The two smiled at each other.
