Because at this stage, everyone's attention was on Chu Qingyan's impending childbirth, and they didn't pay much attention to the outside world. Xiao Lieqi had sent the information up earlier, but Xiao Xu was not in the mood to deal with it, so he was at the bottom. Now these rumors finally reached his ears.
"Snapped-"
The memorials that were brought up were thrown on the table by Xiao Xu, and the entire imperial study room trembled three times.
Xiao Yao glanced at a memorial that was scattered on the ground. There were some very dazzling words on it, and he couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth. These people really dared to say it.
"Third brother, what do you think?" Xiao Yao saw that his royal brother was angry, and couldn't help but stab the people around him.
Xiao Hou frowned slightly and looked away from the memorials, then bowed his hands to the people in the seat and said, "This matter is very noisy, and there is a lot of commotion outside. Originally it was the people who were roaring, but now even the ministers are involved. Well, it's not very good."
Xiao Yao snorted, "It must have been some time ago that the imperial brother rejected the courtier's choice of a concubine, and was shocked by the imperial brother's taunting. They were uneasy, so now they are taking this opportunity to put pressure on the imperial brother. "
Since ancient times, the emperor is the god of the country, and no one dares to disobey the master, but once the emperor deviates from the normal track and does not follow the direction expected by the courtiers, they will invisibly condense a force to persecute the emperor.
Now, the matter of Chu Qingyan is a knife they have been dormant for a long time and are ready to use it to coerce.
Xiao Xu rubbed his tired brows and eyes. Recently, he didn't know if the little guy was about to give birth. She hadn't slept well all night, and the cramps were getting more and more frequent. He often got up in the middle of the night to massage her. Calf, originally she wanted to sleep in a separate bed with herself, worried that his rest would be affected by a lot of things, but at such a time, the less likely he would let her bear these discomforts alone. Even if it takes a while, so what
It's just that this kind of thing happened again at this critical juncture, and he really even has the heart to kill.
It's not that he has any influence on the court, but that he is worried that the little guy will affect his body because of these things. Kong Ling has already said that during this time, it is best not to let her have any mood swings, otherwise it will lead to difficult production.
"Third brother, go check it out, who is behind the instigation!" Xiao Xu's voice was as cold as ice.
Xiao Hou immediately responded, "My brother obeys the order."
"In any case, you must not let your imperial sister-in-law know about this matter. You have to keep your mouth shut and not let any rumors leak out."
In the face of the emperor's brother's advice, the two finally realized the seriousness of the matter. It seems that the people behind this are not as simple as the imperial court.
The two responded with serious expressions.
"It seems that we should not hang out in front of the Queen's Wife in the past two days, just to be on the safe side!" Xiao Yao covered his mouth knowingly.
Xiao Hou glanced at him, "It seems that's right."
The harem, Yanxu Palace.
Chu Qingyan was half lying on the slump with a lazy expression.
Originally, her belly was not that big. At that time, Big Ice was still worried that she would give birth to a baby as big as a kitten. Unexpectedly, from three months ago, her belly began to expand like a balloon. When she got up, she felt like she was carrying a big ball, and her body was getting heavier and heavier. She once suspected that the baby was fighting against the big ice cubes.
Didn't you say my little kitten? I'll show it to you! A fat doll rolled his eyes hummingly with his waist on.
After she made up the picture, she couldn't help laughing at herself.
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Xining immediately brought fresh fruits, which were cut into small pieces with toothpicks inserted for her convenience.
After the fruit plate came up, Xining began to instruct the imperial kitchen to bring the warm soup.
Now Xining seems to have become the most powerful maid in the entire harem, because there is only one master in the harem.
The palace concubines in the past of Emperor Xixuan had basically been sent out. Even if they stayed in the palace for the rest of their lives, they would not come to Chu Qingyan, who was loved by 3000 people and all of them, to find a sense of existence. Retirement in the palace.
And Empress Liang has been behind closed doors since the Liang family's affairs got what she wanted, and she didn't want to get in the way of her son and daughter-in-law.
Although Chu Qingyan wanted to take charge of the entire harem, but now there are few people in the harem, she doesn't have to worry about managing it at all, and since she is pregnant, Xiao Xu won't let her bother.
"Xining, you girl, I didn't see that I had become so fat, and you didn't give up on giving me supplements."
Xining knew that her master had nothing to do with fun, so she was willing to be said a few words by her master, and then began to repeat those words, "Master, you also know that the little master is about to be born, you have to eat more. Order something, gather some strength, and then the production will go smoothly, isn't this also what Master Kong Ling explained?"
Saying that, Xining innocently wiped away the tears that didn't exist in the corners of her eyes, looking like she had no good intentions.
"The slaves know that what the slaves say has no weight. When His Majesty returns, he will say three words to the slaves. Then the slaves should wait for His Majesty to come back and teach you!"
Chu Qingyan was delighted, "You girl, you know to block me with this! Cheng Cheng Cheng, can't I eat it?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xining diligently handed over the toothpick, and Chu Qingyan shook her head amusedly, "It's only been a few months, and you're so articulate, I'll see if Jinxin can stand you in the future!"
"He dares!" Xining hummed.
Chu Qingyan's eyes brightened, and it seemed that when she didn't know it, the couple's relationship took a qualitative leap!
"Master, don't worry, your appearance and figure are not out of shape because of this, and you are still so beautiful, so you just eat!" Xining winked and said naughty.
Chu Qingyan smiled, "Just your sweet mouth!"
At this time, Kong Ling walked in with a few midwives.
These midwives were selected by Xiao Xuming Kongling half a year ago. They had delivered experienced wives to the official family. They had been raised in the palace. Now that they were about to give birth, Kongling brought them here to get acquainted with them.
These midwives, Chu Qingyan, have also met, and their faces are familiar.
At this time, Kong Ling opened the medicine box to prepare the hand pillow and checked the pulse daily.
And several midwives, because of the honorable status in front of them, will have a bright future if they can handle this errand well, so they began to scramble to talk about the precautions during childbirth, as well as some easy-to-follow words.
Chu Qingyan knew that ancient production was like passing through the gates of hell, so she listened to it.
After talking, other topics started.
"The lady is so beautiful, the old lady's mouth is too stupid, I don't know how to describe it." One of the old ladies was attentive and flattering.
Another old woman replied, "Isn't it a sentence that looks back and smiles, the country is also the city?"
At this time, another voice sounded, "Yes, the lady's face is kind-hearted and beautiful, and the old lady is thinking, how can someone say that the lady is fox-like without long eyes?"
The ethereal hand, who was about to give a hand to his little princess to check the pulse, was about to open his mouth to stop it, but it was already a step too late.
"What did you say, say it again!"
