Drunk in the Red Chamber Lying on Beauty's Lap

Baochai picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Aunt Xue. The elegant fragrance of the tea came to her nostrils, and it was the best Biluochun.

"Daughter remembers what mother said. If there is something really undecided, my mother and I are both in the capital, so there is always something to discuss."

Aunt Xue took a sip of water, and gently put the teacup on the table, "My son has always had his own ideas, so I'm not worried about you. But your brother... Sigh!"

"Brother has gotten better recently." Baochai persuaded softly, "After these days, Mom will help my brother marry a wife again, so he should take it easy."

Aunt Xue sighed: "Although I said that, I always feel uneasy. When you marry a wife, you should marry a virtuous one, but your brother's personality, what kind of virtuous wife can control her."

Baochai said: "Mom, Xiangling is a good person, but he can't control his brother. In my opinion, it's better for my brother to marry a sister-in-law with a stronger personality."

Aunt Xue frowned, "How can I do that? What if someone is unreasonable, won't the whole family be uneasy? It's not urgent, I have to think about it."

The mother and daughter talked for a long time before falling asleep.

Early the next morning, after washing and dressing, Baochai was carried by her elder brother into the sedan chair.

Thinking that her daughter will belong to someone else's family from now on, Aunt Xue couldn't help but shed tears.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Sister Feng had already passed the dangerous period of the first three months.Under the careful conditioning of Dr. Chen, her body gradually became healthy.

Mrs. Wang was busy managing the big and small affairs of the house all day long, so the number of times she entered the palace was inevitably delayed.It wasn't until Sister Feng took over the responsibility of the housekeeper again that Mrs. Wang came to the palace to visit Yuanchun again.

It is still a magnificent palace, but Mrs. Wang seems to feel that the palace is much deserted this time.

Yuan Chun's belly was already showing, and she leaned on the brocade, her body plumped up a lot.

When she saw Mrs. Wang, a trace of excitement flashed in her eyes.But she still forced herself to be calm and let all the servants go down, leaving only Baoqin by her side.

Mrs. Wang looked at her daughter's blue eyes, frowned and said, "Your Majesty hasn't had a good rest these days? Why do you look so haggard?"

Yuan Chun sighed softly, and said: "The pregnancy is hard, and the weather is hot and dry, so it's hard to avoid sleeping."

"Your Majesty, you can use some milk before going to bed. The old lady also suffered from insomnia a few days ago. Later, Baoyu said that drinking milk is effective. The old lady would drink a bowl before going to bed every day. After these days, she really improved a lot."

Yuan Chun smiled and said, "Then I'll ask someone to cook a bowl every night."

Mrs. Wang looked at Yuan Chun who seemed to have infinite things on her mind, and couldn't help asking: "What embarrassing thing is there for your empress?"

Looking at his mushrooming fingers, Yuan Chun forced a smile, "Mother, don't worry, it's just that the Emperor's body is not feeling well these days, and I'm just a little worried."

Mrs. Wang was taken aback, she had never heard of this.

Yuan Chun motioned to hold the piano to guard the door, not to let other people get close, and then said: "Since I became pregnant, the emperor has stopped coming to my place.

I heard people around me say that this is a rule in the palace, and emperors generally do not see pregnant concubines.I didn't care too much at first, but taking this opportunity, Concubine Zhen pushed a court lady beside her onto the emperor's dragon bed.

According to the information Baoqin and the others inquired, that court lady was extremely seductive, and seemed to be good at one-of-a-kind skills in the room, fascinating the emperor fascinated.In order to keep his energy undefeated, the emperor indiscriminately took some pills refined by Taoist priests, who would have hurt his body.This matter is not very glorious, so Concubine Zhen issued a strict order, no one will talk too much. "

Speaking of this, a slightly higher voice holding the piano came from the door: "Just give me the things."

After a while, Baoqin came in, holding a pure white jade bowl, "Madam, this is the bird's nest porridge that has just been stewed. Madam didn't eat much for breakfast, so let's eat something to pad my stomach." Then he lowered his voice Said: "That lotus picker looks like a spy, he just stood outside for quite a while."

Yuan Chun took the jade bowl lazily, took a few sips, and then stopped.

Mrs. Wang said softly: "Is it so restless here, Madam?"

A sneer appeared at the corner of Yuan Chun's mouth, "Now that Concubine Zhen and the Empress are joining forces, where in the harem is there no one they can install? I am pregnant, and they dare not go too far, and the other concubines with lower ranks don't know how to take it easy. "

Mrs. Wang was shocked, "Could it be that the emperor didn't care about this?"

Yuan Chun smiled wryly, "A few days ago, the Emperor was obsessed with that witch, and didn't care about anything. Now he is sick in bed, and let Concubine Zhen do anything wrong."

"Don't the emperor just ask?"

Yuan Chun's heart felt sore. Pregnancy was supposed to be a great event, but in the end someone took advantage of it.If you give birth to a child but lose the grace, you don't know whether you should be happy or worried.

Sighing, Yuan Chun said: "The emperor has not been on the throne for a long time, and the affairs of the court are busy, and he is not easy to take care of the affairs in the palace. Recently, I heard that the frontier is not peaceful. The empress's father led the army. The power of the Chen family It’s getting higher and higher.”

Speaking of this, Yuan Chun looked around worriedly, and then said: "These days when the emperor is sick, Concubine Zhen does not let people tell the emperor, but let her son Ning Junwang personally attend to the sickness. In the words, There is no lack of words to provoke the relationship between the emperor and the emperor. Mother, what do you think?"

Mrs. Wang was silent for a moment, although she had rich experience in inner house struggle, but her wisdom was not enough for the court affairs.

So after thinking for a while, she finally said: "Your Majesty, just stay in the palace and don't go out of the palace easily. Although the emperor is in his prime, he is the king of a country. No matter what other people do, they may not succeed. You Just be on your own. You know, the dragon seed in the empress' stomach is the most reliable support for the empress in the future."

"Mother is right!" A relieved smile appeared on the corner of Yuan Chun's mouth. She tossed and turned these days because the news she heard was too sensational.

What does Concubine Zhen want to do?Could it be that she still wants her son to take the emperor's place?

The Chen family is even more strange. After the girls in their family are expensive for a country, is it possible that they are still not satisfied?To join hands with the Zhen family.Could it be that Prince Ning promised some greater benefit, so that the Chen family could not help but intervene in it?

She has been by the queen's side for many years and knows that the queen has no grace, so she has no heirs.

Could it be that the Chen family hated the emperor because of this?

Mrs. Wang looked at Yuan Chun thoughtfully, and she said again: "Your Majesty, please remember that you must be especially careful in the court. With Concubine Zhen standing in front of you, and Your Majesty has a dragon seed, you can't find anything big When it comes to the empress, the empress only needs to relax her mind and take care of it with peace of mind."

After a pause, Mrs. Wang said again: "As for other things, you shouldn't ask too much, don't ask, and don't talk too much, and don't say too much. The only way to survive is to be wise and protect yourself."

Yuan Chun nodded, "I wrote down everything my mother said."

When it was time to leave the palace, Mrs. Wang left another roll of bank notes, and then she got up and left.
