Chen Guiren in Comprehensive Qing Dynasty

Bai Ling was quite satisfied with Qianlong's appearance, and when it was time to go to bed at night, Bai Ling prostituted with unprecedented care. Every day, Bai Ling began to look forward to the early arrival of the baby.

When paying her respects, she saw that Concubine Xian had already started to touch her pregnant belly with one hand, and made a tired support with the other hand.Concubine Xian's fetus was very stable, and the queen's belly grew rapidly with Concubine Xian's, and her temper also became violent. She attacked Concubine Xian more than once, but the Ulanara family obviously valued Concubine Xian's birth. After spending a lot of money to protect Concubine Xian, the Ulanara family had a former queen after all, and there were many of them in the palace, so the queen couldn't hurt Concubine Xian at all for a while.

The empress dowager was also very unhappy. She knew the real situation of the empress and Yong Cong. After all, the secret recipe could be safely in the hands of the empress, and the empress could use it with confidence. , she also opened the door for them.

She originally thought that Lin'er would be able to enter the palace next year, and the empress would last until the next year at most. Once the empress fell, Lin'er would have her own backing, and the position of empress would be up for grabs.Originally, she was [-]% sure that Lin'er would become the queen, but now that Concubine Xian is pregnant, her [-]% certainty is gone.Concubine Xian was a concubine given to Hongli by the former emperor. If there is a prince by his side, after the position of queen is vacant, the emperor's courtiers will definitely let Concubine Xian take the position.

The anxious queen and the irritable empress dowager did not need to discuss words when they greeted each other. When they looked at Concubine Xian's belly, they knew each other that they did not want Concubine Xian to live safely. After giving birth to this child, the two reached a tacit understanding without saying anything, and Concubine Xian's life suddenly became more difficult than before.

Concubine Chun is actually pregnant. Not long after Concubine Xian became pregnant, she also broke out. When she just found out that she was pregnant, she was terrified. After all, she was the only one in the palace who had two sons. .Concubine Chun carefully protected the pregnancy for three months. When she couldn't hide it anymore, Concubine Xian was pregnant. pregnant.

"The days go by really fast. The 11th year of Qianlong is coming to the end of the year. There are always many things to be busy during the Chinese New Year. The queen has to take care of Yong Cong and also busy with He Jing's marriage. Will the queen be too tired?"

Greetings from the Palace of Compassion and Ning, I thought it would be the same as before. Everyone said flattering words to Lafayette, said some innocuous clothing, or talked about non-political gossip for discussion. Of course, the most topical topic recently is of course It's about the pure concubine Xian who is pregnant.Everyone thought that today was nothing more than that, but they didn't expect Lafayette, who has been in poor health recently and has been out of business for a long time (who said she didn't care, why did Niu Lulin'er enter the palace so diligently when she didn't care, the old lady just Without the support of my son, I dare not blatantly intervene in the palace affairs), why did he suddenly attack the queen, is Lafayette trying to seize the queen's power?

The queen did not show any signs of fear or anger. After all, this was what she and Lafayette had discussed a long time ago. After all, it is not as good as a tiger's den, "Hehe, it's still the emperor's mother who loves her daughter-in-law. Even if the emperor's mother doesn't say it, the daughter-in-law Today I also want to say that my daughter-in-law is getting tired easily recently, and she always feels powerless in what she does. The imperial doctor also said that her daughter-in-law has not recuperated after giving birth to Yongcong. She is advised to take care of her daughter-in-law and not be too tired. But now it's the end of the year again, and my daughter-in-law wants to find someone to share the burden of so many palace affairs, what do you think, Empress, which younger sister is suitable?"

Lafayette looked relieved, as if he was very satisfied with the queen's statement, "Hehe, so the queen and Ai's family want to go together, Ai's family might as well just be the fourth concubine, and they are all old people around the emperor. It is enough, and the status is enough, it should be for the empress to relieve her troubles."

The queen listened happily, without any anger at being separated from power, "Hehe, what the queen said was exactly what my daughter-in-law thought, and our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law really have a good understanding, haha." I didn't notice that the women in the harem were shaking with aversion to cold.

After flattering Lafayette, the queen turned to the fourth concubine sitting below and asked, "I don't know the four sisters, would you like to help my sister?"

Bai Ling was the only one who knew what the play was about except for Lafayette, the Queen and their people. She wanted to watch the play, but she had no intention of acting in person for others.Besides, the queen will not really divide the rights. She thinks that the rights below are just some thankless petty tricks. Even if they are real rights, Bai Ling doesn't want to touch them.

Women in the harem want power not because they can better buy slaves, better deploy people, better get comprehensive information, and live better in the palace.Even if Bai Ling doesn't have those rights, she can get them. Plants are much more loyal than people, and she doesn't have to be afraid of rebellion. , forgive me for not being able to help the Empress Empress, so I can save my concubine from helping more and more."

Bai Ling's evasion was beyond everyone's expectation.Concubine Xian and the three of them also know that the queen can't give them good tasks, and it's impossible for them to get in touch with the center of palace affairs. Yes, just when they were ready to accept the queen with joyful faces, they did not expect Concubine Wan to refuse.

Lafayette is more happy that Concubine Wan is so sensible, if it is not bad to single out Concubine Xian, especially when Concubine Xian is pregnant, he has no choice but to mention the fourth concubine.In fact, for Concubine Wan, Lafayette does not want her to get involved in palace affairs at all. The temptation of power to women is great. Lafayette, who has successfully reached the position of empress dowager from a small princess, knows very well that if Concubine Wan gets involved in palace affairs If Lin'er pulls her down from the concubine in the future (Lafayette firmly believes that Qianlong's promise will let Lin'er take the concubine's position, and pull down Concubine Wan's position), she will trip Lin'er behind her back, then she will not alright.

"Hehe, since Concubine Wan said so, how could the Ai family make it difficult for you? Concubine Wan pushed Aijia to understand that she really didn't care about these things. Concubine Xian, you can't push it anymore, but you have to take good care of your master." Empress relieves tiredness"

Lafayette had already agreed with Concubine Wan's words, and gave Concubine Xian and the others a step down, and made it clear that they would be in charge. They naturally agreed with a happy smile.

"Then Concubine Xian will help the palace to take care of the annual banquet. The dishes for the annual banquet are all customized. The chief stewards of these imperial dining rooms know that my sister only needs to let the people below ensure that the ingredients purchased are fresh. Concubine Chun My younger sister is already six months pregnant, so I don't dare to overwork my younger sister. Concubine Chun is in charge of distributing the items for the New Year in each palace. The list of items for each palace is already fixed here. My younger sister can just distribute it according to the distribution. It will tire my younger sister. As for the concubine Jia, the most important thing in the Chinese New Year is the sacrifice. My sister will help me arrange the ritual vessels in the ancestral temple. The officials of the Ministry of Rites will be responsible for how to place the ritual vessels. Let's move things out of the imperial treasury, and then wait for the priest to finish, and move them back in a safe place. Queen Mother, my sisters have no experience in handling palace affairs after all, if something goes wrong, this year will not be good. Yes, there are rules for the daughter-in-law to choose, so do you think the arrangement is good for the daughter-in-law?"

Concubine Xian and the others knew that they would definitely not get any good palace affairs, but they didn't expect the queen to be so ruthless.The Queen of the New Year's Banquet said it was very relaxed, fresh ingredients, hmph, the ingredients for the New Year's Banquet have always been the most troublesome thing for the head of the imperial dining room.

Concubine Chun is now focusing on the baby she is carrying. After six months, the imperial doctor has clearly stated that the baby she is pregnant with is a princess. Concubine Chun is very satisfied with the result. After all, the emperor still has a few elder brothers. He Jing is the only one who will get married next year.The task assigned to her by the queen, although she did not gain any real power, was fortunately not tiring, as long as the servants distributed things according to the list, it would not tire her.Concubine Chun thought that it was cumbersome and annoying for the queen to let Concubine Xian take care of the New Year's banquet, which was impossible to perform well and worried about making mistakes.

Concubine Jia is a bit annoyed by the queen's arrangement, and placing the ritual vessels is a thankless task. The ritual vessels are extremely valuable, and they are all recorded in the Ministry of Rituals, unlike the vessels of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, where no one cares about anything greedy , this sacrificial utensil can neither be put into one's private treasury, but must be handled with care, and cannot be easily damaged, but during the hectic Chinese New Year, it is really a joy not to break a few that year Wake up to the palace.

In fact, these trivial and annoying things are not what makes Concubine Xian and the three of them the most unhappy. They are unhappy because these things are all for the Chinese New Year. That is to say, after the Chinese New Year, the queen does not need to take power, and they have no palace affairs. , This will keep them from being angry, but now they want to refuse like Concubine Wan, but Lafayette has already spoken, there is no choice but to smash their teeth and swallow their blood.

Lafayette nodded, "The queen is very considerate, not bad. Well, I am tired of mourning, you all step back." Lafayette is dissatisfied with the queen's distribution, and she controls the palace affairs so tightly, how could she like.

————————————————————————————————————————

It has just snowed in the capital, and the roads in the palace have already been cleaned by the servants, and it is impossible to hear the creaking sound of stepping on the snow.The plum blossoms after the snow are still standing proudly on the branches. Looking at the proud plum blossoms and smelling the fragrance, what Bai Ling thinks of is not a poem, but that such fragrant plum blossoms should be used to make plum blossom cakes. It's delicious, "Moju, Xuemei, let's pick some plum blossoms and go back to make plum cakes."

Mo Ju was not surprised that the master thought of eating such beautiful plum blossoms, "Hehe, master, this servant has already thought of it. When I went out, I brought a small basket with me just to pick some plum blossoms. The master makes a plum blossom feast"

Mo Ju Xuemei went to pick plum blossoms, while Li Nanny helped Bai Ling to watch.When Xiaoye wakes up from practice, it leaves a trace of consciousness on Bai Ling, and it will know when its master is attacked. Although Xiaoye can't leave Bai Ling to practice like Xiaomei, it still seizes every moment to work hard. It can also transform into shape as soon as possible, and can hug the baby in the first time.

Xiaoye woke up and felt a second breath of life from her master, and excitedly shouted in Bai Ling's mind, "Master, master, the baby is here, the baby is here"

When Bai Ling heard Xiaoye's words, she also felt it with her heart, activated her supernatural ability, and finally felt the small, faint, almost imperceptible life in her abdomen. The baby has just begun to exist, and she has a baby too!Now Bai Ling suddenly felt that it was so cold outside that it would be bad for her baby to freeze, so she had better go back quickly (is the silly mother mode turned on?), "Nurse, let Mo Ju and the others pick it here, Let's go back first"

Li Momo saw that the master pulled the big coat on her body, and thought that Bai Ling was cold, "Oh, it's all the fault of this old slave. I didn't notice that it's so cold today. The clothes the master is wearing are really not thick enough. The master is weak, let's hurry up Go back, hurry back" Mammy ignored the layers of clothes she put on Bai Ling before going out, she just felt that it must be cold because the master pulled her big.
