[Qing Chuan] No pet little promise

After Shi Chang fell ill, Mrs. Li Jia's favor was even better, almost the best.

All of a sudden, in the Changchun Palace, there was a scene where nobleman Li Jia and Concubine Xi were evenly matched.

Various news came to Wei Rong's ears.

For example, when paying his respects, Mrs. Li Jia sarcastically satirized Concubine Xi again, and Concubine Xi was so angry that her face was flushed, but she couldn't directly scold her.

For another example, Dou Changzai and Liu Yingying both visited Li Jiagui frequently.A few days ago, Mrs. Li Jia went to Changchun Garden to play and took Liu Xin with her.

With Li Jiagui's favor firmly established, Changchun Palace gradually divided into two factions.Among them, Liu Ying seemed to be moving closer to the upstarts. After all, Concubine Xi had been out of favor for many years and had no children, so there must be no future for her to hang out with Concubine Xi. Instead, she might as well rely on Li Jiagui and fight hard.

Song Qing'er and Wei Rong were classified as hardcore Xi concubines because they "opposed" Li Jiagui many times, plus a reclusive Chen Yin.

"I don't think she will be complacent for long." Song Qing'er gritted her teeth, "I think most of what I said before about moving to the Yanxi Palace was blown out, maybe the Empress Hui didn't see her at all. .”

He laughed again, "My sister hasn't heard of it yet, she went to visit Concubine Hui the day before yesterday, and she was turned away, saying that Concubine Hui was unwell and didn't want to see guests."

Wei Rong lowered his gaze, guessing according to common sense, Shi Chang was falling ill, Concubine Hui was short of people, and Li Jia, who loved him even more, should pay more attention to attracting her.

The sudden coldness was probably because Concubine Hui was really in a bad mood recently.

After her birthday, Concubine Hui was not as concubine of the Jin Dynasty as rumored, and Shi Changzai fell ill... Wei Rong vaguely guessed that Concubine Hui might have known some clues about her son and Shi Changzai.

This is a big basket!How can I care about Mrs. Li Jia.

Next, the mother and son will definitely investigate this matter.

I don't know if the elder brother has found out what he left behind.As long as this game can be completed, I can sit back and relax from now on.

It's not that she is ruthless, Li Jiagui is always targeting her.

Wei Rong wants to be wise and protect her life, but she also doesn't want to be a soft dumpling who can be tortured.

"The small kitchen is using this unworthy stuff to fool me!"

There were more than [-] dishes and snacks on the small table. Li Jiagui took a sip of the sour bamboo shoot and chicken skin soup, and his face immediately changed.

The two young eunuchs who came to deliver the food hurriedly knelt down, one was more courageous, and said with a smile: "Forgive me, this season, the sour bamboo shoots have been stored for a long time, and they are not fresh. If you wait for the spring, there will be good ones." Here are the sour bamboo shoots."

It’s not that they don’t care about the small kitchen. The sour bamboo shoots are all prepared in spring. They have been stored in the same old bark, and they have been boiled in high soup all night, and they don’t have the crisp taste.

Li Jiagui threw the chopsticks away angrily, "Forget it, you go down."

The two young eunuchs hurriedly resigned.

Mrs. Li Jiagui is in a very bad mood. This time she regained favor, she looked glamorous on the bright side, and the days of accompanying her were more frequent than when she was favored for the first time five years ago, but she knew that it was different. In her eyes, she couldn't see any eager nostalgia from the beginning.

Yes, the way he looked at her was dull!

Women are sensitive, especially those who have experienced a fall out of favor.Mrs. Li Jiagui understands very well that to the emperor, the current self is just a thing to relieve boredom when the pillow is empty.

This favor can be lost at any time.

It made her panic.

Hui Xin persuaded in a low voice, "You should eat more for your own health. Maybe the emperor will flip your brand tonight."

Moved by the last sentence, Mrs. Li Jiagui finally took the chopsticks handed over by Huixin, looked down at the dishes on the table, took a long time to pick up a chopstick of shredded chicken, but just as soon as it was brought to his mouth, he felt sick.

She threw down the chopsticks abruptly, and lay on the table to retch.

Hui Xin hurriedly patted her on the back, and the little maid offered the teacup.

Li Jiagui took a sip, and the overwhelming taste eased slightly.It's been a long time since this uncomfortable feeling, the last time was... Recalling my experience of being pregnant five years ago, Li Jiagui's heart trembled slightly.

Hui Xin also asked: "Master, your appetite has not been very good these few days, should you invite an imperial physician over?"

"There's no need for now. In the evening, you can go and find Doctor Xue quietly." Li Jiagui said in a low voice.

There are also a small number of female imperial physicians in the imperial hospital, mainly for gynecology and pediatrics. Their status is lower than that of serious imperial physicians, and they are regarded as female officials.

Among them, Doctor Xue is the one she has been used to for the past few years. She is honest and loyal, and she is also respectful to her who has fallen out of favor.

Why go secretly at night?Huixin was puzzled at first, but when she saw Mrs. Li Jiagui's hand on her lower abdomen, she suddenly realized, with a happy expression on her face, "Master, could you be..."

"Don't say anything, it's not certain." Li Jiagui interrupted her, but a smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

Recalling my performance these days, I am lazy and unwilling to move, I like to eat sour food, and I often feel nauseous, all of which are very similar to when I was pregnant.It is true that heaven has eyes, if one is lucky enough to give birth to a child, even if the love is gone in the future, there will be support for life.

The emperor valued heirs the most, as long as the concubines had children, even those with lower backgrounds, they would praise them.I don't see that Wang Guiren is now coming according to the order of concubines.

In the evening, Dr. Xue was invited to come, and after a short diagnosis and treatment, she looked happy.

"Congratulations, nobleman, it really is a happy pulse."

Mrs. Li Jia was overjoyed, and ordered Huixin to take out two small golden lockets, and gave them to Doctor Xue, and asked her to keep it secret for the time being.

She didn't want to spread the news until the fetus in her stomach was stable.

After all, the first child was gone when she was three months old.Now that she and Xi Concubine are in conflict, she has too many opportunities to attack.

After the dynasty was over, the elder brother Yinyi left the gate of the Yizheng Hall.

Say hello to a few courtiers you come across.Everyone's face was full of smiles.

These days, Yinbi can be called the proud horseshoe disease, because of his previous military achievements, he was officially canonized as the king of Zhijun, and he was the first among his brothers.

Although the mother and concubine were not formally enfeoffed, at the birthday banquet, the emperor rewarded her a lot, which was enough face.

His mother's Nala family, his uncle and cousin's official positions have all been promoted to a higher level, especially the second cousin has served as the patrol inspector of Suzaku Gate. He is in charge.

In Yinyi's selfish heart, compared with the position in the harem, the Jin title obtained by the mother clan is more affordable.

The only fly in the ointment is that the person who appeared outside the window that day has not been found for a long time.

However, after careful investigation, there are already clues.Follow the clues, and sooner or later let him show his true shape.

Just as he was thinking about it, the guards came up to meet him, and one of his confidants stepped forward and said in a low voice: "My lord, I have already found out, the owner of that crabapple flower."

Yinfei's eyes lit up, and he really said that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will be there.

He asked anxiously, "Who is it?"

"It's Mrs. Li Jia from Changchun Palace. At the banquet that day, the little maid in charge of serving tea remembered that she had seven or eight crabapple flowers on her hairpin behind her wings."

Mrs. Li Jia... Yin Yin's eyes flickered.

He lost someone that day, and he didn't give up after returning. He ordered people to search the grove in the apse carefully, hoping to get some clues.

The hard work paid off, and he really found a clue. A crabapple flower that should not have appeared there fell on the edge of the stone on the path, and it was half withered.

The rules in the palace are strict, and servants like maids and nuns are strictly forbidden to wear these scented things on their bodies, while concubines usually wear gold and silver at banquets, and not many like hairpins, only some low-ranking concubines.

After searching, he found the target.

It's just Li Jiagui, isn't he the new favorite of the emperor recently?This is a headache, if it is an unimportant person, it is fine to kill him quietly, but it is not easy to kill someone who is favored.

The guard said again in a low voice: "This subordinate ordered someone to investigate. Mrs. Li Jia is living in seclusion these days, and has not attended several harem banquets."

It really is a guilty conscience!Yinbi's eyes were gloomy and cold, and he ordered: "Let's keep an eye on it first."

There is always a chance to strike.

***

Yufu took down the vase that was placed in front of the window, and said, "This flower also faded too quickly."

The crabapple flowers inside are half gone.

"Yes." Wei Rong looked at the taupe petals in the bright red.

I don't know if my method of diverting disasters to the east will work.

Yinbi is a cruel master, and he will never give up until he finds that person. If he wants to get away, he can only send him a real murderer.

The first time she took the initiative to frame her, Wei Rong felt a little psychologically stressed, but it was Li Jiagui who designed her to dirty Shi Changzai's clothes, which caused this series of incidents.It is only natural that she will bear the consequences of the follow-up.

Thinking of that day, I couldn't help but think about the person who had only seen two sides.

Wei Rong has been telling herself not to think too much these days.

What kind of bridgehead appointment, it is absolutely impossible for me to keep the appointment.

As for the fourth elder brother, I have been there several times, but if I can't wait for anyone, I should give up.

Maybe……
