Chapter One Hundred and Sixteen: Yun Fenghuang: Little Fool, Little Fool

"Why hasn't Sister Mao come out yet?" In the main hall of Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion, Yuan Lianniang touched her raised belly and asked Chen Zhu with a half-smile. That's all for her, sister Yaoning is here too!"

Chen Zhu wiped off his cold sweat and smiled apologetically: "Your Majesty is joking. My Majesty knows that the two Madams are coming, so there is no time to rejoice! I am afraid that I will neglect the distinguished guests, so I am still dressing up and will come down later. Please wait a little bit, Madam!" "

"That's good." Yuan Niangniang squinted her eyes and snorted coldly, "Yesterday, sister Mao went to take off her hairpin in front of the loving mother Empress Dowager to plead guilty, crying and talking, but she kept saying that she wanted to change her mind and be kind to others! If she is today, she will be right. The sisters in the palace shut their doors and refuse to accept, but it is too hypocritical!"

As he said that, he glanced at Gu Zhen, who was holding the tea, with no expression on his face: "I remember that Mao Zhaoyi thought she was young and beautiful, even if she was accompanying her, she would at most put on a thin layer of makeup, even if she only started to dress up after she knew the news, Shouldn't it take much time?"

"This..." Chen Zhu hesitated for a while, but Yuan Lianniang gave him a sharp look, worried that his vague words would cause more trouble, so he nodded bravely, "Don't worry, my lady, my lady will leave soon." coming."

Fortunately, not long after, I heard the sound of the stairs inside, and Yun Fenghuang, who was dressed up, led Nianxuan out gracefully, and said with a smile on his face, "What kind of wind brought the two of you here today? It really surprised me. "

While talking, he blessed Gu Zhen. Seeing Yuan Niangniang sitting firmly on the chair, she didn't intend to meet her at all, so she raised her eyebrows, didn't say anything, sat down on her own, and said with a smile, "Sister Yaoning Forget it, Yue Jieyu is pregnant, if I had known earlier, I should have gone to Fangyin Pavilion to visit you."

"There's no need for this." Yuan Niangniang snorted and said, "The loving mother Empress Dowager doesn't like extravagance, and there are only a few dowry in her hand. Elder sister Mao will go there a few more times, fearing that the loving mother Empress Dowager will not be able to resist."

These words made it clear that Yun Fenghuang took off his hairpin to plead guilty, but indirectly had a fight with Queen Mother Yuan.

But Yun Fenghuang acted as if he didn't understand, and said with a smile: "That's right, the empress dowager was ill before, and even Your Majesty was very worried. Although she has recovered in the past two days, it is not appropriate to disturb her. It is better to let her rest and recuperate."

The implication is that the Empress Dowager Yuan was so ill that even the emperor cared about her, so it is not suitable to disturb her, but you, Yuan Niangniang, still live with the Empress Dowager in the Fangyin Pavilion, which shows how unsympathetic the elders are!

"Sister Mao looks a little different today." Upon hearing this, Yuan Niangniang frowned, looked around her face, and then covered her mouth and smiled, "Well, this is the first time I've seen Zhaoyi do wine-smudged makeup. To be honest, this makeup doesn't match Zhaoyi's, Zhaoyi is young, her brows haven't even opened yet, she can't hold back such gorgeous makeup at all... Wait a minute, why is Zhaoyi's face like this?"

When she said this, the people around her subconsciously looked at Yun Fenghuang's face.

Although Yun Fenghuang used the most gorgeous and heavily powdered wine smudge makeup, but because of his fair skin and clear slap marks, no matter how much he covered them up, he could still see the slap marks if he looked closely-of course they didn't think it was Jiang. He called, but he thought of the fact that the emperor came to Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion yesterday and Yun Fenghuang then went to Fangyin Pavilion to stay for a long time, and his expression became subtle for a while.

"Is there something wrong with my face?" However, Yun Fenghuang was calm, as if the traces everyone saw were dazzled, lightly shook the round fan, and said to Yuan Lianniang with an innocent face, "As for the makeup, Yue Jieyu is also wearing heavy makeup today! There seems to be something wrong with Jieyu's face? Hmm, maybe she fell asleep at night?"

Yuan Niangniang was startled when she heard the words, and a look of embarrassment appeared on her face: she patronized to attract everyone to see Yun Fenghuang's embarrassment, but forgot that she had been covering her real complexion with thick makeup these days.

Because she was not very beautiful in the first place, she had seen beauties everywhere since she entered the palace, so Yuan Lianniang was very careful in dressing up on weekdays.

Ever since she was pregnant, spots gradually appeared on her originally smooth and fair face—even though both Queen Mother Yuan and Emperor Chunjia thought it was nothing, and didn't find it ugly, Yuan Niangniang herself couldn't bear it, so she put on more and more makeup to cover it up.

Being exposed by Yun Fenghuang at this moment, he almost jumped up angrily, gnashed his teeth and said: "Sure enough, what you say about knowing your mistakes and being able to correct them is because you are looking at the loving mother, the Empress Dowager, who is easy to talk and talk smartly!"

"I don't understand Yue Jieyu's words." Yun Fenghuang said in surprise, "Did I say something wrong? Don't you have heavy makeup today? Didn't the marks on your face come from bumps? Ben Gong doesn't seem to have said any taboo words?"

She snorted coldly in her heart, she followed Jiang's order to confess her mistake to the Fangyin Hall, it was to change Queen Mother Yuan and Emperor Chunjia's view of her, not to please Yuan Niangniang!

Could it be that Yuan Niangniang still felt that she went to the Empress Dowager Yuan to take off her hairpin to plead guilty, and from then on she was inferior to others in this palace, and anyone could come over and step on her?

Even if Yun Fenghuang is willing to wrong herself so much, Jiang's still can't bear it!

"Of course this face of the palace is not bumped!" Yuan Niangniang stared at her for a moment, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she blurted out, "It's no wonder that Mao Zhaoyi misunderstood, after all, Mao Zhaoyi was never pregnant, and There will be no children in the future, of course I don’t know, it’s common for pregnant women to have freckles. After giving birth, it will naturally disappear, no matter how hard it is, it’s only about ten months!”

Before the words fell, the hall was completely silent!

After all, for women at this time, the pain of being unable to give birth is simply indescribable.

Although the former dynasty and the harem had already spread the difficult words of Yun Fenghuang's heirs, none of the concubines directly mentioned it in front of her.

Either pretend to be one's own identity, or rely on one's self-cultivation, or keep a line for oneself, in the end it's all about being sympathetic.

As a result, Yuan Niangniang said it so openly and nakedly that even Gu Zhen, who came with her, frowned slightly.

"..." Yun Fenghuang forcibly suppressed the urge to reply immediately.

Her regret about not being able to give birth is actually not as great as outsiders think. First, when she decided to exchange her fertility for a concubine, she was well prepared psychologically; The son has no obsession at all, and pays more attention to his own safety and interests.

Of course, the most important thing is that she doesn't love Chunjia.

There is absolutely no urge to continue his bloodline personally...

I am secretly delighted to lose my fertility so as to avoid the weak period of pregnancy and confinement...

But even if Jiang Shi didn't mention it, Yun Fenghuang knew that she couldn't show her true attitude.

Because this will not only expose the truth of her feelings for Chunjia Mode, but also a good opportunity to win the sympathy of Queen Mother Yuan—whether Queen Mother Yuan can't give birth by herself, or is it because Fuyang Duan Wang is weak that she didn't let the concubine Pregnant, the outside world naturally has no way of knowing. But the queen mother must have wanted to give birth but failed to give birth, so she had to settle for second best to adopt a bastard.

There is no need to describe the sadness in it, it can be imagined.

Yun Fenghuang counted silently in her heart, and was silent for quite a while, before she said quietly in the strange silence, "Yue Jieyu is wrong, although I have never been pregnant, how can I not have children in the future? The head of Xuanqing Palace, and the heirs born in Xuanqing Palace are all children of this palace."

"That's right." Yuan Niangniang frowned, and was about to say something, when Gu Zhen suddenly said, "Yue Jieyu has always been outspoken, and there is no other meaning in what she said, just seeing that Mao Zhaoyi doesn't understand, so give it to Zhaoyi." Please explain, Zhaoyi, don't get me wrong."

As she spoke, she tugged Yuan Niangniang's sleeve secretly, signaling not to get entangled on this topic—the more entangled, the worse it would be for them.

It's just that sometimes Queen Mother Yuan can't persuade Yuan Niangniang, even though Yuan Niangniang took the initiative to invite Gu Zhen to come here today, how can she give up now?

Seeing this, she ignored it, and said with a smile: "Mao Zhaoyi is young, and has never given birth, and she doesn't even know about such things as freckles during pregnancy. I am really worried about the heirs who will be brought up by Zhaoyi in the future. Can Zhaoyi take care of herself? One must know that the royal blood is born with dignity, not to mention the emptiness under your majesty's knees, whether it is a prince or a princess, it is extremely important. According to my palace, before Mao Zhaoyi took this job, he had to weigh it A bit good!"

Her words were very sinister, and Yun Fenghuang didn't answer well. In the future, raising the emperor's heir would be a matter of course.

It's just that Yun Fenghuang has always been cunning, how could he be so easy to be caught?

He chuckled at the moment, and said: "Don't worry about Yue Jieyu, Jieyu may have been pregnant a little less often, so she has limited experience: Yi Yuwan here in this palace is also pregnant, but so far her face is smooth, her skin is fairer than snow, look It turns out that the face is more radiant than before Wei Youxi. It can be seen that people in the world are different, and not all pregnant women have spots, but it’s not that I don’t know anything about pregnant women.”

"It's just that I didn't expect Yi Yuwan to have no experience before at such a young age, and everything is as usual during pregnancy, and Jieyu is considered a person who has experienced it, but she will still have such troubles."

Although he didn't deliberately emphasize certain words, it's hard not to let the two concubines, who have been in the palace for nearly ten years, suspect that Yun Fenghuang was alluding to their age.

"..." Yuan Lianniang only felt that an arrow had been shot in her heart. She was so depressed that she couldn't speak, she couldn't help sitting up straight, and said angrily, "What do you mean?! You mean that you took good care of Yi Yuwan, and your loving mother Didn't the empress dowager take good care of this palace?!"

She was going to mess around.

Yun Fenghuang almost didn't laugh out loud, he thought that this is a little fool, he dared to come to the door with such a low standard: "Yue Jieyu really knows how to joke, who doesn't know why you have been living in the Fangyin Pavilion , but because the loving mother Empress Dowager is sick and wants to be close to the sick? Could it be that these days, the loving mother Empress Dowager is taking care of you when she is sick?"

Yuan Niangniang: "…………………"

A mouthful of old blood was stuck in her throat, she wanted to have an attack but couldn't, she wanted to swallow but was really unwilling, after a while, she slapped the table angrily, got up without saying hello to Gu Zhen, and left!

Gu Zhen who was thrown down suddenly: "..."

The man was holding the tea bowl, seeing this, he had to put it down, endured the embarrassment, said goodbye to Yun Fenghuang in a neutral manner, and left in a hurry.

The two left the Lanzhou Yeyu Pavilion with their front feet, and rushed to the Fangyin Hall with their back feet. The Queen Mother Yuan had already prepared to clean up the chicken feathers when Yuan Niangniang insisted on going to Yunfenghuang for a "visit". Seeing her niece come back, she raised her eyelids and said, "Didn't you say you were going to get close to Mao Zhaoyi? Why did you come back so soon?"

She thought that her niece would definitely sue and slander her, but Yuan Niangniang hesitated for a while, but said nothing, only frustrated: "Her words are not pleasant, I am impatient to wait."

Empress Dowager Yuan was a little surprised, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Why doesn't it please you?"

"..." Yuan Niangniang recalled the conversation process, flicked her sleeves in anger, and snorted, "This person can't give birth at such a young age. Seeing a pregnant woman like me, who is still pregnant with the emperor's heir, I feel unhappy, and I just can't speak. Three or four! I'm too lazy to argue with her!"

After I finished, I said that I felt a little tired and wanted to go back to my room to take a nap.

The queen mother said gently: "Then you go quickly, don't get tired."

Just as he was talking, someone from the palace came outside to report that Mrs. Yaoning had come after Yuan Niangniang and was begging to see her at the door.

"I don't want to see her!" Yuan Lianniang said with a look of boredom, "She's like a piece of wood, she can't speak, I want to rush ahead of everything... I would have known better before I didn't want her to go! She's like a piece of trash!"

Empress Dowager Yuan was a little tired, and she was too lazy to correct her for speaking so openly about a concubine with a higher status than herself, especially with such a loud voice, Gu Zhen probably could have heard it outside, so she waved her hand feebly: "The Ai family knows, Aijia will send her away...you can go if you want to rest."

The Queen Mother cheered up and took care of the aftermath for her niece and daughter. On the Lanzhou Night Rain Pavilion, Yun Fenghuang had just returned to the upstairs room when she heard a sound on the stairs, and the little palace lady came up to report that the Queen sent When someone came, it was said that Empress Dowager Ji planned to take the princesses and princesses to Shanyuan Temple for a short stay in two days, and asked the concubines in the harem if they wanted to go?
