The Empress is Always Unambitious

Chapter 187: Five-needle pine

Views:

Everyone who had been watching the high-ranking fight all morning also expressed their pleasure.

Anyway, Yi Fei is no longer the Yi Fei who talks about everything.

Ying Meiren is here, she finally has the energy to hug her child. Now the third princess can't tell what she looks like, but her eyes are big. It will definitely not look bad in the future.

Beauty Ying looked at it for a while and sighed: "I'm not lucky either."

I don’t know if the first miscarriage was a boy or a girl. This time it’s a girl. I don’t know where the next baby is.

"Master, don't say that. You are a great blessing to give birth to the third princess. Even if you give birth to a prince now, you cannot be promoted to the ninth concubine all at once. She is a princess. In a few years, your position will be reached. Just take it back," Ju Xiang advised.

If he were a prince, someone would definitely be plotting against him, and he would probably not be kissed when he was brought back.

But as for the princess, it is easier to say that no one will specifically plot against the princess.

"Look at Lu Baolin. Even if the prince has given birth, Baolin still cannot get ahead. As long as you give birth, you will be promoted to the throne. That is a good thing." Ju Xiang said.

"I entered the palace together with Jing Xiuyuan. Look at her, how can I feel at ease?" Beauty Ying sighed.

"Master, don't be discouraged. In time, you will be the same. Look at Concubine Jin, isn't she a princess? But she had a high position when she entered the palace. It can be seen that in the eyes of the emperor, the princess is also very noble."

Beauty Ying sighed: "You are right, she entered the palace to practice rituals."

"So don't be discouraged now. There will be new people entering the palace next year. By then, aren't you the ones who have given birth to princes and princesses who will be awesome?" Juxiang said with a smile.

"Let's talk about next year, but I heard that Jing Xiuyuan's sister is also coming in? The Shen family's appetite is really big. By then, Jing Xiuyuan will also be worried."

"That's not true. She is favored now, and she is already fearful. If she can't attack herself, I'm afraid she will have to start with her sister. Unless her sister comes in and doesn't fight, things will inevitably happen." Ju Xiang said.

"Well, my Li family is not as prominent as theirs, but it's not that bad." Ying Meiren sneered: "As time goes by, I'd like to see if she, Jing Xiuyuan, can remain invincible forever."

Shen Chuliu, who was missed by Beauty Ying, was looking in the mirror in Cuiyunxuan.

She touched her belly and looked left and right: "Has it grown a bit?"

"Yes, Master, it's been more than four months, so of course it's time to grow up." Zhemei said funny.

"It's really magical." Shen Chuliu was not only looking forward to the pregnancy, but also novel.

"Master is pregnant for the first time, which is very strange." Zhemei said.

"It's very strange. There is a little child in my belly like this. I thought it would be very cute when it was born." Shen Chuliu touched his belly: "Do you think it's a boy or a girl? Don't say it against your will."

Did she know that all the slaves would say he was a prince.

Needless to say, ancient people favored boys over girls.

"I see that I am still a prince." Zhemei still felt that it was better not to go against her will.

"I can't tell you. I just feel it intuitively. He's still the prince." Chi Su said.

Shen Chuliu sighed: "Okay, you all think he is a prince, you won't find out until he is born, right?"

"You'll be able to see it in five or six months, but I think it's better not to look at it, right?" Zhemei said.

Shen Chuliu nodded: "Well, I won't look, I'm just curious. If it's a little princess, give her beautiful clothes when she is born. If the little prince is born, he will be able to protect me when he grows up. They are both cute and I like them all."

The master and the servants were joking and very happy.

Yuan Xiao came in and reported: "Master, I just heard that Concubine Yi has called the imperial doctor again."

Shen Chuliu laughed: "If her mind is not broad enough, she will be angry to death sooner or later? She was much prouder in the past, but now she can't hold on when people liquidate her."

He said and shook his head. "It's because of the severe cough." Yuanxiao said.

"Her cough hasn't been cured since last year, right?" Shen Chuliu asked.

"Yes, I used to cough a lot when it was cold. Now that it's hot, it's a little less severe. But whenever something bad happens, I still cough."

Zhemei whispered: "It's like this, I'm afraid it's not good."

If you cough too much, you will easily become tuberculosis.

What's more, even if it's not tuberculosis, coughing was very serious in ancient times.

Even in modern times, pneumonia is still a serious disease, not to mention other lung problems, and the fatality rate is still high.

If Concubine Yi continues like this, she may really hinder her longevity.

"Look, my slave, the palace is now facing this girl from the Li family as if it were a formidable enemy." Chi Su said.

Shen Chuliu hummed: "You should indeed feel like facing a formidable enemy. After all, you have an extraordinary background, right? However, everything depends on the emperor."

Empress Dowager Li's niece definitely didn't come here to be cannon fodder.

"Anyway, this Miss Li must be more scheming than Concubine Feng Shu. Master, you must be careful," said Chi Su.

"Well, with you, I can rest assured." Shen Chuliu said with a smile: "No matter what kind of girl she is, she can't be in a high position all of a sudden after entering the palace. Walk slowly and take your time. It is said that she is the niece of Empress Dowager Li. , but who in this palace really buys it?"

Sometimes one's background is too good, and the more hardships one faces.

"Master, the reward from Tai Chi Palace has arrived." Yuan Xiao came in again.

Shen Chuliu held Zhemei's hand and went out to receive the reward.

What was delivered were two pomegranates, the kind of ornamental pomegranates planted in large flower pots.

The flowers are blooming well, and they are bright red and very beautiful.

"Oh, it's so beautiful. Let's put it there." Shen Chuliu waved his hand.

Yuanxiao took the eunuchs and placed the pomegranates into the main hall.

"Thank you, do you just give it to me, or do you have it elsewhere?" Shen Chuliu asked.

The eunuch of the Taiji Palace smiled and said: "In the morning, there were flowers at the Queen's and the Queen Mother's. Downstairs, there is a pot of orchids at the Queen Mother's house, and you have two pots of pomegranates here. It is said that there is a five-needle pine at the Queen Mother Ning Chongyi's house, which is beautiful. Empress Chongrong has camellias, and Su Baolin has orchids.”

"Thank you so much, father-in-law. Come to Lantern Festival and take them to drink something cold. Remember to bring money for the father-in-law to drink tea." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.

It was not the usual twelfth lunar month that came to Tai Chi Palace. The leading young eunuch hurriedly thanked Empress Jing Xiuyuan. I went to drink sour plum soup with the Lantern Festival.

There is not much else in summer, this is the most.

Shen Chuliu looked at the pomegranate flowers, which were indeed beautiful. She still quite liked it.

"Ning Chongyi likes five-needle pine?" Shen Chuliu asked as he picked a flower.

"To tell you my master, Empress Ning Chongyi has always liked pines, cypresses, bamboos and orchids." Zizhu said.

Shen Chuliu nodded: "Although these plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums are said to be the Four Gentlemen, the emperor now rewards Ning Chongyi with five-needled pine, and concubine Yi with orchids."

"Orchid means nobility, but the emperor personally gave it away, why do I think it will be ruined on the street?"

It's not as good as this five-needle pine.
