The empress's quarrels were like a god's quarrels to the empress dowager, it had nothing to do with her, it was even a good thing. How many people would be lucky to have less Kunning Palace during those days when the emperor left? However, with the addition of a sister in the palace, it was still better to buy one for free. Clearly, he was a formidable opponent in the future.
Although she was only from palace maid, she still wanted to see which palace she came from. The empress dowager was someone who could rely on her. Who would dare to look down on her?
Everyone suspected that the Emperor Empress was arguing because of the Imperial Lower Consort Jing, so they all watched from the sidelines and did not move around to take a look at the Jingyang Palace.
It was only until the empress's bestowal of the Jingyang Palace that the rest of the imperial concubines were able to send their gifts to the Imperial Lower Consort Jing He. "Imperial Lower Consort Lan originally wanted to give the main hall to Imperial Lower Consort Jing, but Imperial Lower Consort Jing said there was no need," Before elder sister bestowed me a concubine, even elder sister was bestowed with a concubine due to pregnancy. If the main hall was given to me, how could I afford it?
Imperial Lower Consort Lan looked at Imperial Lower Consort Jing, and seemed to be a person who abided by etiquette and restrained herself, her heart was at ease. They lived together in a palace, and people with good character would always get along a bit easier.
"I'm not lucky, sister, don't be like me." The Imperial Lower Consort Lan said with a wry smile, "Little sister, remember this, do not overdo it."
"This time, empress is giving us cloth, jewelry and other items. There are no herbs." "Even if little sister wanted to make up for it, without a single decent amount of medicinal ingredients, how would you be able to make it up to her?" She touched her stomach, and everyone said that she came from the Palace of Tzu An with the empress dowager looking after her from behind. She knew, however, that other than the prince involved, the empress dowager would not protect her any further.
That's right, she was just a little palace maid, who was she to be considered?
The empress dowager had slapped her across the face of the empress. In this imperial harem, it was destined that every step of the way would be difficult for her. Now, she could only hope that her stomach would work hard enough to safely give birth to a Little Prince before she could plan for the future.
"I still have some medicine from the empress. I'll get someone to bring some to you later, but if you need them, ask the imperial physician for them." The Imperial Lower Consort Lan said.
"Thank you elder sister." "Imperial Lower Consort Jing looked at Imperial Lower Consort Lan emotionally," Elder sister, everyone else said that I ascended to the sky in one step, no one knew that I was extremely panicked in my heart.
"I understand." "At that time, I discovered that you were in the same mood as your concubine, not daring to sleep even at night, unable to believe that all of this is real."
"But it's true." The Imperial Lower Consort Lan said, "You can only be at ease and give birth to your child. Once the child is born, you will have someone to rely on for the rest of your life."
"But I've made the Empress unhappy." Imperial Lower Consort Jing said worriedly.
"empress is a person who is gentle and benevolent. Even if she doesn't like him, she won't use any underhanded methods." "My child was not careful, but the Empress blamed herself more than I did. From then on, it was my fault that she did not bestow any medicinal ingredients to the Queen."
"You must give birth to a child because neither you nor I are fond of you. If you fail to grasp one opportunity, then there will be no next time." "Imperial Lower Consort Lan advised Imperial Lower Consort Jing." Look, I already know where I will be able to see Her Majesty again. "
Imperial Lower Consort Jing nodded her head.
"Wang Rong and the fourth concubine called over to take care of the palace affairs." I will bring the Little Princess along to Ying Tai in a few days' time to take shelter from the summer heat. I will still have to rely on you for everything within the palace. "
"How is the Empress's health?" The imperial concubine said, "Our palace is restricted by our hands and feet. If the Empress is better, it would be better for her to be in charge herself."
Wang Rong said while covering her chest, "My body gave birth to the little princess on its own, my strength is truly lacking. The imperial physician also told me to recuperate without worrying too much."
"If you feel that the palace is too difficult, why don't I choose a few more people to help you?" Wang Rong He said, "I've already reported back to His Majesty about your matters at the palace. They've all agreed to work at the empress dowager's place, and they've all seen how diligent your palace is."
"Since the Empress trusts us, we are naturally duty-bound, and do not feel that we are fortunate." Imperial Consort Guo raised her eyebrows and said to his imperial concubine. If your concubine feels that it's difficult, why don't you just give it up? There's one more Imperial Lower Consort Jing's younger sister. "
"It's not difficult, it's not difficult." The concubine hurriedly said carefully that she had no love for any of her children. Now that she was sitting here, she was only relying on her first love. It would be beneficial for her if she were to be in charge of this palace. He'd thought that the empress would still want the power of the palace, so she'd feigned loyalty and behaved obediently. He hadn't thought that the empress really didn't want to regain control of the palace. After that, she just sat there like a flower on one side, not wanting to easily open her mouth.
"Imperial Lower Consort Jing is pregnant now, so you can't work for her." She then said to the Imperial Lower Consort Lan, "The reason Your Majesty allowed the Imperial Lower Consort Jing to live in the Jingyang Palace is to trust you."
"You have to take care of Imperial Lower Consort Jing and ensure that the child in her womb is safe." Seeing Imperial Lower Consort Lan's nervous face, Wang Rong said, "You don't have to worry too much, there's always a rule about how to take care of pregnant women, just follow the rules."
"This concubine will naturally take good care of Imperial Lower Consort Jing and the child in her womb." The Imperial Lower Consort Lan said.
"Good, you took good care of him. Your Majesty and the empress dowager both remember your contribution." Wang Rong He said.
Wang Rong quietly went with him to the Ying Tai Palace. Zhu Yijun sat at the Qianqing Palace with the book in hand, but was unable to read. "Has the empress reached the Ying Tai?"
"How can you be so fast?" Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "I've only just left the palace, your majesty does not need to be anxious, the Empress will send someone to deliver a message to your majesty when she's settled. Isn't it the same as always for the past few days?"
Zhu Yijun sighed, "Why doesn't mother like the Queen? We remember that during the selection, mother liked the empress very much. "
"How could Esteemed Empress Dowager not like the Queen?" Zhang Cheng said, "Your Majesty is overthinking it."
"Could it be that the empress is overthinking things?" Zhu Yijun said.
"We have not seen Rong Chang for a few days and are still worrying about him. "Thinking about how I haven't seen her for such a long time ever since she was diagnosed in her mother's womb …" Zhu Yijun said.
"When the eldest son of the Emperor is born, the Esteemed Empress Dowager won't be so worried." Zhang Cheng advised.
The last time they had returned to Ying Tai, the empress and their companions, as well as King Lu and Princess Rei An, were extremely lively. This time, there were only the empress and little princess. The palace maid did not say anything. She only tried her best to create a lively atmosphere, so as to prevent the Empress from feeling sad as she gazed at the loneliness.
They all thought that the Empress was crying because Her Majesty doted on the palace maid and hid in the Ying Tai.
Wang Rong didn't explain too much and asked others to put the little princess on the bed. For almost five months, besides eating and sleeping, she knew how to play. If she put her on the bed, she would be able to play with her feet in a few minutes. Wang Rong tried to stop her wet nurse who wanted to go forward and play with the little princess, "Let her play on her own."
"Now that I have Ying Tai, Nanny can finally relax." Wang Rong He said, "I have nothing to do for a long time, so I can bring more little princesses with me."
This time, without His Majesty, the Ying Tai's population was simple, Wang Rong lived more casually, her clothes were simple and casual, she coveted to be light, so she let others do the opposite of her. Her dress was full of silk, and on her sleeves there was a thin veil, and on her arms, shoulders and chest, both were faintly discernible, holding onto a bun, a silk lotus flower was inserted diagonally, "Do you have the elegance of Tang Dynasty?" Wang Rong asked with a smile. Even when she was in the Wang family, she didn't use this disguise. However, now that he was alone in Ying Tai, he could play a role as much as he wanted.
"The Empress has given birth to the Little Princess, which makes her even younger and more beautiful." Wuyou said.
"She was originally of average looks, so how could she be younger and more beautiful?" Wang Rong said with a smile. She called Yanluo over, but this time she didn't want to watch him dance, rather she wanted Yanluo to teach her how to dance, "My hands and feet are very stupid, I wanted to learn when I was young, I was afraid that Sir would dislike me and hence I didn't dare to speak. This time I got close to him and wanted to learn.
Yanluo did not dare, as she knew how to play music, and let her play. Yanluo had taught Wang Rong and her dancing skills, and Wang Rong was a little stiff first, but she learnt it quickly. Yanluo laughed, "If the Empress is still stupid, there won't be any intelligent people in this world."
Wang Rong said with a smile, "After jumping for an hour, my body began to sweat like the rain, and I realized that it would be very difficult for me to train my Faculty Division day after day."
"It's always hard for people to live in this world. It's always hard for people to cultivate, but it's so sweet." Yanluo said, "Everyone in Faculty Division thanks empress for his great kindness."
"I didn't do anything." Wang Rong He said, "Like you said, people in this world have to go through a lot of hardships, those who endure it go up. Although it's bitter and sweet, those who can't bear the hardships, those who succumb to their corruption can only suffer first."
"I acknowledge a teacher as my mother." Yanluo said. Every single day, I would be glad that she recommended me to go to the Chuxiu Palace to teach the Imperial Consort Candidate how to dance, allowing me to get to know the Empress. The Empress would not resent my humble birth, and every single time I spoke with her, she would make me feel as if I was bathed in spring breeze.
"Because you and I are happy too." Wang Rong He said. It's also fate that brought us together. "
The bathing pool of Ying Tai was extremely huge. When Wang Rong and the others were submerged in the water, they asked for Rong Chang to be carried over, "I almost forgot that you learned swimming from your stomach, do you remember it now?"
Wang Rong supported Sister Xi's stomach with her hands and placed it in the water. She seemed to like water very much. Her hands and feet tapped on the water surface, her mouth was wide open, and her eyes sparkled.
"Sis Xi'er likes it too, doesn't she?" Wang Rong said with a smile.
Sis Xi'er slapped the surface of the water twice in agreement.
"Then from now on, how about mother brings you here to play with the water every day?" Wang Rong asked.
Sis Xi'er focused on hitting the water surface.
If any other palace maid were here, they would definitely advise him not to let the little girl play with the water to prevent her from catching a cold. At this time, only someone with no illness would serve her, so she did not advise the Empress.
Miss had her reasons for doing everything, and she would definitely not do anything that was bad for the little princess. There was no need to disturb their intimate moments at this moment.
He waited until the little princess had been in the water for half an hour before he came forward and said, "The princess has been in the water for half an hour. She should be hungry by now."
"Wang Rong and her brother came out of the water with their arms wrapped around each other." I really shouldn't play anymore. Swimming is going to cost me a lot of energy. "
After personally helping Sis Xi to dry off her body and put on her small clothes, she seemed to know something and looked at her with her grape-like eyes. She was so cute that it hurt to look at her.
Wang Rong and the person holding her foot kissed again and again. Sis Xi'er grinned, as if she was smiling happily.
"It's really my darling." Wang Rong said.
