Fu Bao and Fu Hui hummed: "That's more like it. Isn't this coming? In the past, being favored was a thing of the past. Now that our empress comes in, we have to take a few steps back. It's good to be sensible."
Concubine Xin smiled: "What kind of gift is it? Bring it up."
Yuanxiao smiled and stepped forward to greet her: "Hello, Concubine Xin, this is a gift our master asked his servants to send. Come and open it."
He had already explained it, so the twelve eunuchs cooperated with each other very quickly to pull the cloth and open the door.
Thirty mature black-bone roosters ran and flew out of the cage in just a few breaths.
For a while, there was a bustle of noise and shouting. Because they could not fly high, they still had wings, so they had to flutter.
It was nothing at all, but the palace maids had never seen such a battle before, so they were naturally frightened and had to slap them in fear.
It doesn't matter what the shot was, the chickens were also frightened, one was frightened, and the whole group was frightened.
In an instant, the courtyard of Yongning Palace was in an uproar.
The Lantern Festival and the others left long ago.
Not only did he leave, he also closed the door thoughtfully.
Go ahead! Don’t you like black-bone chicken? I’ll give you a yard!
Yongning Palace was in a state of turmoil all morning. At noon, we caught all thirty silk-bone chickens that were jumping around and flying.
But the black-bone chickens probably didn’t know where they were coming today, so they were unprepared and ate a lot.
So there are a lot of people pulling.
Everyone who has smelled the smell of chicken shit is familiar with it.
The entire Yongning Palace was filled with a stink. Although it wasn't particularly smelly, I don't know if it was because the chicken poop was powerful or if it smelled like it just made the whole courtyard smell like this.
Especially, someone stepped on it while chasing the chickens...
Not to mention how disgusting it is.
Concubine Xin was in the room, her face turned green with anger!
This matter had spread throughout the morning.
I don't know how many ladies and mistresses in the palace have sprayed tea. Jing Xiuyi really has to do it if he doesn't take action. If he does, he will be killed.
I thought she would die out this time!
Everyone was really disappointed and relieved.
Disappointed that Jing Xiuyi remained stubborn even after the newcomer entered the palace.
It was Jing Xiuyi who relieved her anger and suppressed Concubine Xin's arrogance.
In the Tai Chi Palace, Qi Yixiu almost spit out tea and burst out laughing: "Why did this woman come up with such an idea? This is really damaging!"
"Your Majesty, Concubine Xin's people are waiting outside." Chu Si smiled.
"Just say that I still have something to do." Qi Yixiu smiled and waved his hand: "Tell Concubine Xin that I am busy with government affairs these days, so I won't go."
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, I agreed and went out to talk.
I thought that although Concubine Xin was important, it was normal for the Emperor not to go there these days. Who would want to smell the smell of chicken shit
Concubine Xin could still bear it, but she couldn't send those black-bone chickens to Cuiyunxuan again. After all, they said they were sending them away, and they knew it was intentional, but it couldn't be said that Jing Xiuyi did it on purpose.
There are a hundred reasons for people to shirk it.
So in the end, this black-bone chicken still has to be sent to the dining room.
No matter how she counterattacked in the future, Cheng Xinfei still didn't win this time.
When saying hello the next morning, Concubine Jin exaggeratedly covered her nose and smiled meaningfully.
When everyone looked at Concubine Xin, they were still respectful, but there was always something in their eyes that made her uncomfortable. It was a mockery, she knew it. But no one said anything, what could she say
Concubine Feng Shu smiled half-heartedly: "Jing Xiuyi's gift is quite original."
"If Concubine Feng Shu likes it, can I also give you a copy? I will give it well this time and don't close the cage. By the way, is Concubine Xin okay? It's all my people who are stupid. That's a live black-bone chicken. How can I not? Close the door? But I am impatient. I know that Concubine Xin likes black-bone chickens, so why am I anxious to please you? You have only been in the palace for a few days."
Obviously you mean to please me, but in reality you just came to steal my things after entering the palace a few days ago
Concubine Xin gritted her teeth angrily and just smiled: "Jing Xiuyi is too polite."
Two days later, Concubine Xin met Qi Yixiu again.
She didn't stupidly complain, but Qi Yixiu said it first: "My beloved concubine has just entered the palace, and she doesn't know what is going on in the palace. The queen respects etiquette, and as long as the rules are good, she doesn't care about you."
Concubine Xin's heart skipped a beat and she said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong. I really shouldn't have done that when I entered the palace before. I'm not sensible. Please don't blame me for what happened in the past. I will definitely respect the Queen in the future. No. Don’t dare to make another mistake.”
What she said was interesting. She didn't say it was because she didn't understand the rules, but she simply said it was her fault.
This made Qi Yixiu glance at him and said, "As long as my concubine understands, I won't talk about the past. Your father died to save me, and I should give you a worry-free life. But after all, life in the palace is no better than elsewhere. It would be better for my beloved concubine to be more respectful and polite."
Qi Yixiu thought that he was taking Concubine Xin seriously.
Concubine Xin thanked the emperor.
"Also, Jing Xiuyi..." Qi Yixiu started laughing as he spoke.
"If your beloved is fine, don't mess with her. She doesn't want to suffer. But she's a bit more powerful, and she also abides by the rules. If you don't mess with her, she won't mess with you either."
Concubine Xin's heartbeat quickened, thinking that the people the emperor said were powerful were really powerful, right
"Yes, I remember, I should not argue with Jing Xiuyi... I just... I just heard that the emperor loves her very much, and I feel a little envious... I will never dare to do it again in the future."
Being so frank again, Qi Yixiu thought that this Qian family did have some merits.
The black-bone incident just passed, and there was no follow-up for several days.
Everyone agreed that this was Concubine Xin taking a step back.
It's a pity that no matter how much he retreats, the emperor still goes.
In September and October, in the nearly two months since returning from the north, the number of times Concubine Xin visited her bed almost caught up with the times when Concubine Yi was most favored.
This made everyone feel very uncomfortable.
But in the name of being the daughter of a lifesaver, no one dared to say anything.
On the ninth day of December, the night just after Laba, Zhen Jieyu started.
She had just moved back not long ago, and counting the time, the child was here half a month early.
But it doesn't matter. When I'm born, it won't be a big deal sooner or later than half a month.
It's just that the time of activation was unfortunate, it was late at night.
When Empress Dowager Li heard about it, she immediately told everyone in the harem not to go.
It was said that it was too cold at night, so that everyone would not catch the cold. In fact, everyone knows whether this is the case.
But of course everyone was happy not to go.
As soon as Shen Chuliu was woken up to go, he was told that he couldn't go, so he hurriedly lay back and said, "Let her give birth slowly." After saying that, she fell asleep again.
Tonight was Yomei and Chisu's vigil. They were startled in the middle of the night and couldn't sleep well. They felt very cold, so they lit a charcoal fire and placed it at the door where the inner and outer doors meet.
The two men sat under the fire and talked quietly.
"Do you think it's a boy or a girl?" Chi Su put his hand on the brazier to heat it, and then asked softly.
I'm afraid you'll say I'm lazy, so I'll add one more chapter.
