When the people from the Duke Yongnian Palace were brought into the Kunning Palace, Wang Rong and her mother did not call Wang Zhixi over. When they saw that the ones who came were their grandmother and sister-in-law, they exchanged greetings with their grandmother and smiled as if they understood what was going on.
"When I heard at home that the Empress was pregnant, I was overjoyed. I hurriedly wished in front of the Bodhisattva that this baby would go smoothly." The old lady said, "And then I heard that the Empress was going to lie in bed with a baby. What is going on? Is the Empress well? "
It was also my negligence. The child hadn't been discovered for two and a half months, and had fainted just in time, so the imperial physician told him that the king had also been treated seriously. He then went to bed for a few days, and only now did he summon his grandmother to the palace.
How did he faint?" The old lady anxiously asked, "The Empress is at home, and even the slightest headache requires a doctor to come take her pulse. Don't you have an imperial physician treat her to a safe vein in the palace?" It's only been two and a half months and you're already aware that this Palace Mistress is not in a hurry? " The old lady was very dissatisfied.
"Grandmother, don't worry. There are no major problems now." Wang Rong and An Ying said, "The imperial physician said the fetus was very stable."
"Presumably, Imperial Physician and palace maid also wouldn't dare to underestimate the Empress, but did the Empress act on her own accord?" The old lady thought it through and said, "How can Grandmother be at ease at home when the Empress is so willful?" The old lady's expression was very serious.
"I was wrong." Wang Rong He said, "I won't dare to do that again." In the future, no matter how willful you are, you will never take your body as a joke. "
"Empress, is there anyone in the world who treasures your body more than you do?" The old lady said, "The Empress has made up her mind and said that she will not treat you if you don't allow me to use the 'safe' meridian. The palace maid is not free, and no one dares to dissuade you, so I am very worried."
"Grandmother, don't worry. This time the empress dowager and His Majesty have both spoken about me. They won't be so careless in the future." Wang Rong He could only promise again and again.
"Grandmother, the Empress is the smartest. One lesson is enough to prevent her from committing another offense." The Lady Zeng helped to persuade her, "Fortunately, the fetus is still alright. The Empress was also blessed. Pregnancy is the hardest period of the first three months. Now that two and a half months have passed, it will be easy for me in the future. "
"Has the Empress vomited recently? Do you like sour food? How's your appetite? Was his waist sore? "What about sleeping?" As expected, the old lady turned her attention to the more important matter at hand.
"I don't vomit and I don't like to eat sour food. My appetite is extremely good. "My waist feels sore, but I like sleeping a lot." Wang Rong patiently replied, "I already said that the girl I'm carrying in my heart is definitely a girl. She's too considerate and doesn't let me work hard at all."
"Right now, even the commoners in the imperial palace are watching the Empress's birth. It would be better if she were a prince." The old lady said anxiously.
"Little Princess is also doing quite well." The Lady Zeng helped to say, "They all said that the flower would bear fruit first, so Big Sis took little brother and left. In the future, if the Empress were to carry two children in her arms in three years' time, it would be good for the children. "
The old lady was a little disapproving, "It's better if it's a Little Prince, the Empress can really be considered to be safe."
"Regardless of whether it is a prince or a princess, they are all hoping for him to be born smoothly and grow up healthy. Everything else is not important." Wang Rong He said.
"Yes, it will definitely be born healthy and healthy." The old lady said, "When I was at home, I would always chant Buddha for the Empress. The Bodhisattva will definitely protect the Empress."
"Grandmother, don't work too hard." Wang Rong He said. She also knew that her grandmother wouldn't be able to look after her when she wasn't around, so she told Lady Zeng, "The family's internal affairs all depend on eldest sister-in-law. It's hard on you."
"That's my duty as a wife." The Lady Zeng said, "Fortunately Grandmother doesn't find me stupid. I will personally teach you everything so that nothing can go wrong."
"How are Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law doing? Which family does little sister's marriage come from? " Wang Rong asked.
Lady Zeng glanced at the old lady. Why is it that even the Empress has asked such a difficult question, she wouldn't be able to answer then. Wang Rong looked at the old lady and asked, "When I go to the Qianqing Palace and meet the Third Brother, I'll tell him."
"He has his own fortune. The Empress has a heavy body, so there is no need to worry about him." The old lady said, "As for Chang'er, she is still young, so it might be possible for her to stay at home for another year. Otherwise, if you go to someone else's house to cause trouble, it will also be to cause trouble for your own home. "
"Grandmother, just make up your mind." Wang Rong said, "I want to discuss the matter of my wife's marriage with my mother, so that she won't make a fuss and let others see it as a joke."
The old lady nodded. "Naturally."
Inside the Jingyang Palace, Wang Zhixi waited all this time. When it was almost noon, and there still wasn't anyone from the Kunning Palace summoning her, she asked her trusted aide. Did you ask? Is the family of the Duke Yongnian Palace entering the palace today? "
"It's today." palace maid said, "Beauty, don't worry, this servant will go ask again."
When palace maid returned, her face was anxious, "The family members of Duke Yongnian Palace entered the palace today, but when this servant went to investigate, the people from Duke Yongnian Palace had already left the palace."
"Out of the palace?" Wang Zhixi asked, "Then why didn't the Empress summon me here today?" Since the empress was pregnant, the empress would naturally allow the empress to select a family to enter the palace to accompany the baby. Initially, she had planned to take advantage of the time when the grandmother's mother entered the palace to recommend herself and stay in the Kunning Palace to serve the empress.
But why didn't the Empress summon her?
"I heard that the only ones who entered the palace today were the madame and her eldest grandson's wife, and that Duke Yongnian's wife did not enter the palace." The palace maid said.
nodded her head frantically. Sitting on the chair, the Empress would definitely not want her to go to sleep, but now that she did not have any external help, she could just stay in the Kunning Palace.
Wang Zhixi thought for a long time but did not have any ideas, she felt a headache coming, thinking that since the Empress had summoned her family today, then no matter what, she would summon the imperial concubine tomorrow. Wang Zhixi went to Imperial Lower Consort Lan, wanting to ask what kind of things she prepared for the Empress.
The Imperial Lower Consort Lan made a pair of tiger shoes and a tiger hat, preparing to gift it to the empress, "Does the Empress still lack some rare and precious treasures? "What we can give the Empress is just a little bit of kindness."
"Even if you did, how could the Empress not worry to use it?" Wang Zhixi said. When you were pregnant, you made yourself some clothes. They were given to you by others, do you dare to use them?
"Whether or not the Empress uses it is her business. I just need to send it over." Imperial Lower Consort Lan said that she only treated Wang Zhixi like a normal beauty.
"empress being pregnant is a great joy for the harem, and I, as her younger sister, am also very happy. Logically speaking, His Majesty should have agreed to let the members of the Duke Yongnian Palace enter the palace to accompany the children. I don't know why the Empress did not agree." Wang Zhixi said, "Actually when I was in the palace, I should have gone to serve empress."
"You will serve them? How can you serve the Empress without the common sense of being pregnant? " "You don't even know how to make up for your injuries."
"What do you mean?" Wang Zhixi's face alternated between green and white, "How would I know that you're heavily injured? Should I know how to heal my wounds? "
"I didn't say that you knew?" "Imperial Lower Consort Lan laughed coldly. I only said that you don't even know this, how can you have the nerve to say that you want to serve empress? "
"Actually, how could this empress be interested in something like this? But no matter what, we have to prepare it, or else it wouldn't be worth it if we came empty-handed to congratulate you." Imperial Consort Guo laughed.
"This is all thanks to your kind intentions, I appreciate it." Wang Rong said with a smile.
"Empress, I have just entered the palace, there are not many good things, and the things I send are not as good as those of the other sisters. Empress, don't blame me, in order to make up for Empress, I will serve the Empress with tea at the Kunning Palace."
The fragrance of the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng gushed out of Wang Rong's nose as she leaned back and covered her mouth with a handkerchief. The Imperial Lower Consort Zheng is too kind, I can't treat the last wife as the palace maid. You just have to dress up and wait on His Majesty. " In his heart, however, he had a whole new level of respect for the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng.
Just like Imperial Consort Guo, even if she really wanted to curry favor with her, she would not reveal the slightest bit of fear in front of her. This was her pride in being the first to enter the palace. When the Imperial Lower Consort Zheng entered the palace, she was the only concubine in the room who dared to call her elder sister. Now, her eyebrows had not even changed and she had changed her name to "Empress" and was still willing to serve her as the palace maid.
It wasn't an easy thing for a concubine who had never been favoured to say such words.
It was not only Wang Rong who thought this, but all the other concubines present also looked at Imperial Lower Consort Zheng. As for whether she was envious or not, it was hard to tell.
"Serving the Empress is just serving His Majesty." Imperial Lower Consort Zheng said. His Majesty wasn't meeting the heavens, but the Empress was meeting the heavens. Your Majesty will be happy to serve the Empress well. "
"I believe that the other sisters also wish to go to the Kunning Palace to serve the Empress. Don't you think so? " When Imperial Lower Consort Zheng saw that Wang Rong She only smiled and did not speak, she came to the palace and more or less knew what was going on. As a result, she looked at the consorts behind her, wanting to use the public sentiment to get the emperor's approval.
"Imperial Lower Consort Zheng must be joking, how can we be more considerate than the palace maid serving the Kunning Palace?" The Imperial Lower Consort Liu said, "I'm afraid they are just causing trouble for the Empress."
"When the Empress gets pregnant, we need to rest. If we go over, we will definitely have to follow behind a palace maid or two. Wouldn't that be disturbing the Empress?" Imperial Lower Consort Yang also said.
"Although there is definitely no lack of servants in the Kunning Palace, for those of us who are careless and stupid enough to serve the Empress, it is still good to be able to interact more with the Empress in the Kunning Palace." Her concubine, who had been sealed the same day as Imperial Lower Consort Zheng, said those words carefully. After all, it would be better to be honest than to say that she was willing to serve her.
"Yeah." The rest of the officials agreed, "When we enter the palace, we won't be as close as the other sisters and the Empress. If there's a chance, we can go to the Kunning Palace and get closer to the Empress every day. That would be the best."
"Does that mean we don't want to get close to the Empress?" "Beauty Sun said." We also want to get close to the Empress. "
"The Imperial Consort Guo sneered. When is it bad to get close, and you must get close when empress is pregnant? "
"Imperial Consort Guo." Wang Rong said with a smile, "They both want to get close to me. If I don't allow it, then doesn't that mean I'm cold and heartless? You guys form your own charts and each of you will have one day."
"Many thanks, Empress." said the concubine in unison.
"Since this was proposed by Imperial Lower Consort Zheng first, this Imperial Lower Consort Zheng shall go first." Wang Rong and Wen Yan said with a smile. I'll let you go first with the Kunning Palace today. It was agreed beforehand, this place is very boring, Imperial Lower Consort Zheng doesn't want to get bored. "
"Many thanks, Empress." Imperial Lower Consort Zheng said with a smile that was like flowers, "I'm going to serve the Empress, how can I be bored."
It was beyond Wang Rong and her concern how the rest of them would argue with each other on their shifts. When she went to pay her respects to the Ci Ning Palace, she had not mentioned this matter at all. On their way back to the palace, Wuyou said, "Why would the Empress agree to Imperial Lower Consort Zheng's suggestion? "How would they want to get closer to the Empress? They want to get closer to His Majesty."
"Do you think that if they don't agree today, they won't borrow my name to stop you?" Wang Rong smiled and said, "I can't refuse to come visit my second wife, especially since I'm pregnant right now. Such a good excuse."
"There are only Thieves for a thousand days. There are no Thieves for a thousand days." Wang Rong said with a smile, "Since they want to block His Majesty with their Kunning Palace, then let them know if there's a problem. Once and for all, there will never be another person who would think like this again. "
