Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 105: Presenting Treasures

Gu Su's miscarriage caused a commotion in the palace, but it quickly subsided because of the empress' quick cutting of the mess.

Of course, it was only on the surface, and Concubine De went to Huanhua Hall to inquire about the news under the banner of paying respects to Yun Fenghuang: "My sister heard that Gu Guiren's pregnancy was not caused by an accidental slip, but by Gu Yuwan and Gu Yuwan. The two sisters of the same clan, Feng Yi, were tricked. It's not surprising, usually they come to the palace to serve His Majesty, Gu Guiren was above them in the first position, and was the first to conceive, so can the younger sister not be envious and jealous? If you want to talk about this matter, it is also the empress's fault that she can't have a bowl of water, especially after Gu Guiren is happy, Jia En, who sees the sky, either gives this or that, and even makes an exception to set up a small kitchen for her, because the concubines are pregnant , It’s almost the same treatment. As a result, it’s better now, it’s too late, a good emperor’s heir is gone, it’s really sad to think about it.”

She said she was sad, but her eyebrows were beaming, "I don't know if Your Majesty has heard of these things?"

"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, why don't you know? It's just that you don't care about the empress and Uncle Zhaowu's face." Yun Fenghuang smiled and said, "Speaking of which, the empress is also pitiful this time."

Concubine De immediately changed her tone: "Sister said, alas, how long has the empress been looking forward to the nobleman's child, and it's only been a few months... the empress is really not easy."

She didn't come here today just for the sake of chatting, so she turned to the topic at this moment, "It was only the Eighth Prince who was taken to Chongchang Hall to take care of him. This happened, and I don't know if the Empress can take it?"

"The eighth prince is the son of a virtuous concubine, and the empress is just helping to take care of it." Yun Fenghuang said slowly, "It's not the son of the middle palace, so why should the empress worry about it? How can the empress be too busy?"

Concubine De blinked, and said coquettishly: "But after King Chu's death, Empress Empress lost a healthy son. Now Gu Guiren has a miscarriage, and Gu Yuwan and Gu Fengyi have never been pregnant. It doesn't have to be the prince. The empress has never thought about it, so I'm afraid it's not a solution?"

"The empress would not snatch the heirs of the concubine Xian." Yun Fenghuang said calmly, "Otherwise, why arrange Gu Guiren and the others to enter the palace?"

"That's right." Concubine De was thoughtful, "But... what if Concubine Xian is willing to send the offspring to the Empress on her own initiative?"

Yun Fenghuang smiled and said: "Isn't this a violation of the rules? What kind of words are you talking about?"

"Sister said yes." Seeing her calm expression, Concubine De was relieved. She was afraid that Yun Fenghuang would not think carefully and asked Yuan's family to give the eighth prince to the queen as his son. When the Yuan family became rich for a long time, she I am afraid that I will have a hard time with the imperial concubine.

The two of them hadn't sat down to have a good conversation for some days, and after finishing their serious talk, they chatted about trivial matters.

With their current identities, all they can talk about is palace affairs and children.

When Wei Hengyan mentioned his own daughter, his brows and eyes softened, and he told Yun Fenghuang interesting stories about the three princesses for a long while. Seeing Yun Fenghuang listening with a half-smile, he realized that Yun Fenghuang Huang also has a daughter under her knees, and Princess Zhaoqing said that Yuxue is the cutest among the three imperial daughters, and now she is at an age where she can walk and run. Embarrassed, he said, "Sister Menglang is dead, please forgive me."

"Zi'er is also three years old." Yun Fenghuang said with a smile, "You are the only one in front of her, and she is lonely even if you think about it. If you have time, you can bring her here and play with Qin Wang Zhaoqing and the others. Children must still like people." There are many, besides, they should meet frequently between brothers and sisters."

"If my sister doesn't dislike Zi'er's naughtiness, of course my sister is what I want." Wei Heng said so on his mouth, but he was a little embarrassed in his heart.

If she had voted for the imperial concubine with her family anyway, she would be happy to see her daughter get closer to Qin Wang Zhaoqing.

The problem is, not long ago, the King of Qin and Zhao Qing teamed up to beat up the third prince, and Liu Gong had heard about it to some extent.

She has no feelings for the King Chu who is not her own, and doesn't care about King Chu's life or death.

But her own daughter, Gongxiang, is still very important to her, and she treats her like a jewel like a treasure. What if she is also bullied by King Qin and Zhaoqing when she comes to Huanhua Palace?

It's just that Yun Fenghuang spoke up, and Wei Hengyan didn't dare to object, so he just apologized and said, "I'm afraid that Zi'er will be very noisy if she is pampered by my sister, and it will disturb the cleanliness of my sister's place."

Yun Fenghuang waved his hand: "As for the six children here in this palace, except for the seventh prince who is still too young to run around and make trouble, which one of the other five is a fuel-efficient lamp? I'm used to it."

When Wei Hengyan heard this, he had no choice but to respond dryly: "My sister was joking, the children raised by my sister must be the most well-behaved. If Zi'er can get some guidance from her sister, my sister doesn't have to worry about her future."

So it was settled.

It is simply that after King Qin and Zhaoqing beat the third prince, they came back to the palace and were severely reprimanded by Yun Fenghuang in private, forbidding them to be rude to their brothers and sisters again.

So after the arrival of the three emperors, King Qin and Zhaoqing were at first because they were used to playing with each other, and they were quite friendly with the three cousins ​​of the Xie family. Later, Xie Kuo, who was still the most sensible, took Xie Mu to pick up the third princess, and the children gradually played together.

Every time Wei Hengyan waited for his daughter to go back, he had to interrogate his daughter carefully. After learning that his daughter was treated coldly at first, he quickly became acquainted with his brothers and sisters. The relationship between the children was fast, and he had already started chattering with her about King Qin talking about Zhaoqing. , he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it is still beneficial for him to tirelessly support the imperial concubine for the past two years.

It is estimated that Yun Fenghuang ordered it privately, otherwise, the King of Qin and Princess Zhaoqing were so arrogant in the middle palace, how could they treat Gong Xiangjin preferentially?

So she no longer worried that her daughter would be angry and bullied when she went to Huanhua Temple, and sent people to Yunfenghuang almost every day.

After all, not to mention that both their mother and daughter need to be favored by Yun Fenghuang, they come here most often for Chunjia, so it is worthwhile to do so.

The reason why King Qin and Princess Zhaoqing are loved by Chunjia the most is because they see each other frequently and fall in love for a long time?

But in the past few days, Chunjia didn't come to Huanhua Palace very much, but frequently summoned Gu Shao and Gu Liman when Gu Zhen repeatedly went to Taichu Palace to ask.

Because he was busy with government affairs and he didn't have much sincerity for the three Gu sisters, so every time he came and went in a hurry, he never visited Gu Su who was still recuperating in bed.

Therefore, all the missions to appease Gu Su fell on Queen Gu Zhen: "Is she arguing to seek death again? Forget it, I don't want to stop this time. Good words can't persuade the damn ghost, so let her go like this." !"

"My lady, don't be like this. After all, it's a blood relationship. Gu Guiren is young, so he can't help but think about it when he suffers such a crime." The attendant advised her, "The fourth wife of the family has been crying to the old man in the past two days. Even if you really don't want to take care of her , at least waited for this period."

Otherwise, the fourth wife of the Gu family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. Although she has lost her husband, it is precisely because of her husband that she has kept the festival so far. Be extra generous to show kindness.

The Fourth Madam might not care much about Gu Su, a concubine who she didn't spend much time cultivating, but she must be very concerned about the heir adopted from the big house, that is her old queen's reliance.

I'm afraid the Fourth Madam would love to exchange the misfortune of the concubine's daughter for the family's compensation for the heir.

Most of the losers will be Gu Zhen's same mother and brothers.

"...What crime did I do?" Gu Zhen let out a sigh of relief, sat down slumped, and said, "There is no one at home who can rest assured!"

"It's more work for those who are capable." The servant persuaded, "You see that Gu Yuwan and Gu Fengyi don't need to think too much, but are they qualified to think so much? Whether it's entering the palace or serving the bed, just listen to it. ordered?"

Gu Zhen sneered and said, "They came here following orders? If they had really followed orders, would this incident happen again?! And they are not qualified to think too much, but they have no less thoughts!"

"You still use them now, and let them pamper you for a while. When the prince falls to the ground, why don't you do whatever you want?"

That's what I said, but in a blink of an eye it was time to escape from the summer heat again, and Gu Shao and Gu Liman didn't make any movement.

Chunjia got tired of it, and went to Yunfenghuang Palace again.

The two of them hadn't seen each other for some time, and even the emperor's heirs were a bit unfamiliar with their father, and they were a little timid when they were called by Yun Fenghuang to pay their respects.

The third emperor's daughter-in-law, Xiangzi, was very shy, she hid behind Xie Kuo and refused to come out.

When Chunjia saw it, she asked, "Why is there another child, who is this?"

"What did your Majesty say? Where are there more children? Isn't this your child?" Yun Fenghuang said angrily, "The third princess born of Concubine De, how long has it been since you went to Yijia Palace? Zi’er doesn’t know her anymore? You picked her boudoir name yourself!”

Chunjia laughed dumbfounded, and said: "This kid is a bit timid, he can't hide, I can't even see his face, how can he recognize it?"

Although he didn't care much about his offspring, the children are still young, just at the age that they are cute and can't cause trouble. As a biological father, he looked at him with a bit of affection, so he beckoned Gong Xiangzi to come to him.

But Gong Xiangjin didn't dare, grabbed Xie Kuo's sleeve and refused to let it go, finally Yun Fenghuang yelled, she often came to Huanhua Palace these days, and was taught by Concubine De, she trusted Concubine De, hesitated for a while Er, carefully moved to Yun Fenghuang, and called out "Mother and Concubine" in a soft voice.

"This is your father, he called you." Yun Fenghuang touched her small face, and coaxed softly, "You go to him, ah?"

Gong Xiangzi supported her knees, looked up at Chunjia, with a hesitant expression.

Chunjia smiled kindly at her.

However, Gong Xiangjin remained motionless, pulling at the hem of Yun Fenghuang's skirt.

Seeing this, Chunjia was a little embarrassed, took a sip of tea, and said, "This child is an emperor after all, why is she so shy?"

Yun Fenghuang snorted and said, "Your Majesty hasn't come to visit for so long, how old is the Empress? How do I remember you?"

However, Princess Zhaoqing ran over, threw herself into Chunjia's arms, and said with a smile, "Sister is so stupid, I only remember father!"

Chunjia hugged her up: "Look, the third princess is too cowardly, Zhaoqing is not like this."

Seeing this, the King of Qin also hurried over: "There are also sons, father, sons also remember, you also hug sons!"

Chunjia smiled and leaned over to hug him and Zhaoqing. The two children are only three years old now. When he was in the prime of life, he didn't feel tired like this, so he talked to Yun Fenghuang calmly: "It's better for the noble concubine to teach the children well. However, King Qin and Zhaoqing are much more generous than the three imperial daughters, so I have to talk to Concubine De when I have time, so she can learn more from Concubine Gui."

Yun Fenghuang didn't appreciate it, and just glanced over: "Your Majesty, don't pick things up, it's okay to spoil the friendship between us sisters! I think the third princess is very good."

He hugged the third princess and coaxed her, "Zi'er is so obedient, isn't she?"

The third princess still doesn't understand the importance of Chunjia's doting to her at this age, she is very unfamiliar with this father, and has no idea of ​​getting close at all. As for the neck, he didn't give the emperor the slightest glare.

Looking at it, Chunjia couldn't help laughing, and said, "This child doesn't look like Concubine De at all."

When did Concubine De not be overjoyed when she saw him?

Why did my daughter not want to pay attention to me when she saw him?

Yun Fenghuang sneered and said: "It's better not to be like Concubine De, after all, Concubine De is soft-spoken and soft-spoken, but Empress should be stronger, so as not to be bullied when she grows up!"

"Who dares to bully my daughter?" Chunjia didn't think so. Seeing the imperial concubine gave her another blank look, she was wronged. She coughed dryly and didn't refute. He and Zhaoqing got tired of being hugged and coaxed by his father, struggled and fell to the ground, yelling to go out to play.

Seeing this, the third princess also began to struggle with Yun Fenghuang's knees, and she wanted to be with her elder brother and elder sister.

The imperial concubine then let them go down, told the waiter and Xie Mengsan to watch, and let them run out.

Looking at the backs of a group of children, Chunjia felt a little emotional: "It seems that I just came to the throne yesterday, and the children can run all over the place in a blink of an eye."

"However, Your Majesty is still young." Yun Fenghuang said lazily, "I am a concubine, and I don't know how many more years I can survive when I see the sky being pestered by these little ancestors?"

As he spoke, he caressed his face in a serious manner.

She is not yet double ten this year, and it is the time when she is at her most radiant. Because she is pampered, her skin can be broken easily, her eyebrows and eyes are a little longer than when she first entered the palace, and she looks more and more beautiful. I didn't come, I missed her at first, but now my eyes followed her movements, but I saw scarlet spots on the fingertips, which were freshly dyed impatiens flower juice, my heart was moved, I turned sideways and held her wrist, and said with a smile: "Ah Huang is gorgeous. Shuguang, youth is eternal, why do you lament this youth?"

Before Yun Fenghuang could speak, he said again, "The emperor's heirs are really bothering people at this age, why don't they go out to play now, why don't we also go inside to rest for a while?"

What's the point of this blue-sky-white-day rest?

Yun Fenghuang raised his eyebrows, looked him up and down, saw that the emperor's brows and eyes were as handsome as before, and his eyes were burning, so he propped his cheeks and smiled sweetly.

The Qing people winked, and the waiters quietly retreated.

... After a long while, the two ordered people to carry water into the bedroom to help them freshen up. After tidying up, they changed their skirts and gowns, and came out of the main hall refreshed. Just in time, they heard a series of movements outside. It was the emperor's heirs who had been playing for a while and came back to find their father. Empress Dowager.

The three brothers and sisters seemed to be chasing and playing. Zhao Qing was the fastest runner and bumped in headfirst. Panting, he held a bunch of things and presented treasures to his parents: "Father, Queen, Mother and Concubine, look what I found!"

It was a large handful of mud, and there seemed to be something wrapped in it, and it was too dark to see clearly for a while.

King Qin chased after him and shouted unconvinced: "Obviously I dug it!"

Although the imperial concubine has lived a life of calling slaves and servants since she landed, she doesn't dislike the mud, she is very happy when she sees it, and she even asks the third princess who ran last and was held by Xie Kuo to barely cross the threshold of the palace. : "Your elder brother dug it, and elder sister brought it here. What did you do?"

The third princess glanced at Yun Fenghuang shyly, then muttered in a low voice: "I'll pass the shovel to the big brother and big sister."

"Zi'er is really powerful." Yun Fenghuang boasted casually, "It's just what are you digging this soil for? But you plan to grow something?"

"Mother and concubine, this is not dirt." Zhao Qing was clever and articulate, and said before King Qin could explain, "There is something inside, show us, is it some kind of treasure?"

Yun Fenghuang smiled and said: "You guys brought it here without knowing anything? You're not afraid that it's full of insects."

That's what she said, but she still asked Chen Jing to come up and break the pile of dirt to see what was inside.

It was only when Chen Jing made a move, and Yun Fenghuang's pupils suddenly shrank!
