The Job of an Imperial Concubine

Chapter 99

Views:

Imperial Physician Mao was soon summoned to Xihe Palace, but Zhuang Luoyan was a little surprised by the diagnosis of Ximai.

"Are you sure?" Zhuang Luoyan retracted his hand, looked at Imperial Doctor Mao's wrinkled old face, and took a slow sip of the honey tea handed by Tingzhu, "I hope Imperial Doctor Mao will make no mistakes this time."

When Imperial Physician Mao heard this, his heart shuddered, and his whole body felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. This Concubine Zhao actually knew that the Huamai detected last time was a misdiagnosis. Thinking about how many points Concubine Zhao has advanced since she pretended to have a miscarriage, Imperial Physician Mao felt that he was out of breath. This is a positive and powerful master. The most terrifying thing is that in the eyes of others, such a terrifying woman is actually beautiful, which shows her deep scheming.

Zhuang Luoyan looked at the sweat on the face of Imperial Physician Mao with a smile: "It seems that it is a little hot today, Imperial Physician Mao is getting older, it is really hard work for so many masters in the palace these years. This palace heard you. The old grandson is quite accomplished in medicine, and if he can enter the Imperial Hospital to receive your mantle, the Mao family can be regarded as an aristocratic family above medicine."

Don't look at the novels, but all able-bodied doctors don't like to go to the imperial hospital, and those who stay in the imperial hospital are full of wine bags and rice bags. In reality, it is quite the opposite of the novel. Don't you see that any institution that is linked to a certain country will make people feel more high-end atmosphere.

Therefore, being able to enter the Taiyuan Hospital is a recognition of a person's medical skills. Because the imperial doctors and doctors and women of the Taiyuan Hospital are all serving the royal family and the dignitaries, so entering the Taiyuan Hospital is to pass five barriers and five generals. , In terms of innocence, demeanor and morality, and the so-called doctor who treats life, which ruling class dares to joke about its own life

Imperial Physician Mao's heart trembled, he understood Concubine Zhao's meaning, and immediately kowtowed: "Wei Chen kowtows to thank Niangniang for her grace."

Putting down the jasper lotus leaf tea cup, Zhuang Luoyan smiled, "This palace is only in the position of concubine, how can I afford the word grace, Imperial Doctor Mao is serious."

Imperial Physician Mao looked up at Zhuang Luoyan, and kowtowed again: "Wei Chen lost his words."

"You don't have to be like this," Zhuang Luoyan looked at Imperial Doctor Mao's gray beard and waved his hand: "Go back and ask for the pulse of this palace in the future."

Imperial Physician Mao knew that Concubine Zhao wanted him to keep the fetus in her belly wholeheartedly, and now that the current situation could no longer allow her to think too much, he made a big gift and withdrew.

Seeing Imperial Physician Mao retreating, Tingzhu said with some worry: "Master, the pulse is only a month old now, and the fetus is not stable. Do you want to cover it up, the servant is worried..."

"What's the use of covering up?" Zhuang Luoyan stood up indifferently, "It's not that there is no lesson from the past, so what will happen in the end of covering up?"

Looking down at her flat belly, she was just going to make a big gamble, betting that the emperor really wanted this child, and that Emperor Chengxuan was not a stupefied monarch who was controlled by the harem. Unless her body really does not live up to its expectations.

Pushing open the window and looking at the direction of the palace where the emperor lived, I wonder how the emperor would react when he found out that he honestly reported that he was pregnant

The emperor's palace has never lacked luxury and style. The queen and Concubine Shu, who had just been summoned to accompany him to listen to the music, posed each other, looked at the graceful singer with a flat expression, and occasionally said some compliments.

Feng Jin held the tea cup and listened to Concubine Shu Gui's praise to the singer with a half-smiling smile. He waited until the end of the song to say, "The sound is nice, but it's a pity that it still lacks a bit of charm. It's a pity."

"Your Majesty has heard Concubine Rou's wonderful voice, and naturally thinks that other people always lack a bit of charm," the Queen glanced at Concubine Shu with admiration, "I have been in the palace for many years, and I have never heard a more beautiful voice than Concubine Rou. "

Concubine Shu Gui showed her approval, but she felt a little sarcastic in her heart. Ever since she came to the palace, the queen she saw had always shown such a generous attitude, but it was a pity that the emperor treated her with respect and love. Even in the phoenix position, she is still a poor woman.

Holding up the delicate tea cup in front of her, Concubine Shu's lips curved into a faint smile. What if she had the most honorable position among women in the world, and some of her favorite queens would never have been in her life.

Feng Jin lazily listened to the Queen's words, and was about to say a few words, when he saw a eunuch at the door saying something to Gao Dezhong who was guarding the door with a beaming face, looking at what seemed to be the palace attendant of Xihe Palace.

He waved his hand and stopped the waiters who were playing and singing, "Gao Dezhong, let him come in and answer."

After the eunuch knelt down in front of him, Feng Jin remembered that this eunuch was a more useful eunuch in Concubine Zhao's palace, and looking at his happy face made Feng Jin a little curious.

"The slave has seen the emperor, and the slave has announced the good news to the emperor." The eunuch knelt in a proper manner, and did not have a trace of joy.

Feng Jin frowned, involuntarily sat up straight, but his expression did not change: "My beloved concubine, what good thing do you want to tell me?"

Concubine Shu's hand holding the tea cup froze long ago. She thought of a possibility that she didn't want to see. Out of the corner of her eyes, she swept to the Queen, and she saw that the other party's generosity was somewhat reluctant.

"Back to the emperor, just now the imperial doctor checked the pulse of the empress. The imperial doctor said that the concubine Zhao was pregnant for more than a month."

Sure enough, Concubine Shu Gui felt a little bitter in her heart. Although she did not admit that Concubine Zhao was favored more than her, she had to say that Concubine Zhao's life was really good.

"Concubine Zhao is pregnant?!" The emperor sat up straight and leaned forward, with a smile on his face, "Is Concubine Zhao asking you to come?"

"When the lady heard that she was pregnant, she cried with joy and asked the servant to report to the emperor." The joy on the eunuch's face could not be concealed. "If the two girls hadn't stopped the master, I'm afraid the master would have come to see the emperor in person."

When Concubine Shu heard what the eunuch of Xihe Palace said, she couldn't help but feel unhappy. It was too frivolous. Could it be that Concubine Zhao was the only one in this harem who was pregnant with a child? But I don't know if Concubine Zhao was overjoyed or what, she was so eager to let the whole harem know that she was pregnant. Isn't this waiting for the concubines in the harem to hate her

Sure enough, the word complacent can be used by anyone.

If it was someone else, Feng Jin might guess like her, but now it is Concubine Zhao who has done this kind of thing, but he understands why Concubine Zhao is so happy.

Concubine Zhao had a real love for him, so she was so sad after the miscarriage. Having another pregnancy gave her hope, and even made her forget the dangers of the harem. She only wanted to let him know that they had another child.

Just when the Empress and Concubine Shu Gui thought the Emperor would say something to reward them, they saw the Emperor stand up and strode out of the palace.

"Congratulations to see the emperor." The queen and Concubine Shu bowed their knees, watching the emperor's back disappear quickly behind the palace gate, with mixed feelings in their hearts.

The hall became silent for a while, except for the palace attendants who were quietly kneeling on the side, there were only the Queen and Concubine Shu standing in the hall.

The queen walked towards the palace gate, and when she heard Concubine Shu's soft greeting, she couldn't help but turn her head to look at Concubine Shu, who had low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, until Concubine Shu's bent knees trembled, and she said, "You are not the only one who understands the harem. People, you think you can see through her, how do you know that she can see through you too." After saying this, the queen held the hand of the palace maid and walked out of the emperor's palace with the queen's majesty.

As long as she is the empress, she is the emperor's wife, the direct empress of the Emperor Chengxuan of the Kyushu Dynasty, and the favored concubines are nothing more than the emperor's stuff. Even in future history books, her name is written on these women. No one can get past her.

Concubine Shu Gui stood up straight, her face darkened a bit, but she glanced at the palace attendants who belonged to the imperial front, and walked out with her expression unchanged.

When Feng Jin arrived at Xihe Palace, the whole palace was filled with joy. The woman he met was standing at the gate of the palace and looked at him with a smile. His small face was a little hazy in the continuous autumn rain. He sat in the imperial carriage and watched. Looking at her, she seemed to see the despair she looked like when she kept saying that their child was gone.

After getting off the imperial carriage, he held her warm hand, saw that she was well-dressed, and said with a smile, "I heard the good news and rushed here."

"The concubine wondered if the emperor could come," Zhuang Luoyan showed a satisfied smile, "The emperor is still here."

"Robust to speculate on the emperor's heart, are you not afraid of my punishment?" It was cold in the late autumn, and Feng Jin was worried that she would catch the cold, so he took her to the house, "It has rained a few days and the weather has gotten a lot colder, so you have to pay more attention. some."

Hearing that the emperor called her like that, Zhuang Luoyan had an inexplicable illusion of being a mother and a child. She turned her head to look at the tenderness in the other's eyes, and smiled even sweeter: "I don't dare to make myself sick, listen to Imperial Physician Mao. It is said that if you take medicine when you are pregnant, it will be very bad for the child in your womb."

After Zhuang Luoyan said this, Feng Jin realized that the other party was wearing thicker clothes today than before.

"When it comes to falsely testing the emperor's heart, then the concubine is in a dilemma. Many times, the concubine is thinking about when the emperor will come, what kind of clothes will I like to wear, what kind of hair I will comb, and what should I learn to make the emperor like me more. Concubine," Zhuang Luoyan grabbed the emperor's wrist with a little more strength, "the concubine always thinks that if you know more about the emperor's hobbies, the emperor will like the concubine more..."

Realizing that he was talking too much, Zhuang Luoyan awkwardly turned his head aside, as if embarrassed and scared.

After listening to this, Feng Jin looked at Zhuang Luoyan who didn't dare to look at him, and said with a smile, "Why are you so stupid, but I like it very much."

Hearing this, Zhuang Luoyan raised his head proudly: "Of course, the concubine is your child's mother."

The child's mother

Feng Jin raised his eyebrows, and walked into the gate of Xihe Palace with Zhuang Luoyan noncommittally.

Outside the Xihe Palace, the queen sat on the phoenix chariot by the lotus pond rockery and watched the emperor and Concubine Zhao enter Xihe Palace. She felt like she saw something else.

"Queen Empress, are we still going now?" He Yu asked hesitantly.

"Go back to Jingyang Palace." The queen held Feng Nian's handrail and closed her eyes. As Feng Nian turned, she became farther and farther away from Xihe Palace.

Concubine Zhao of Xihe Palace spread to the palaces less than an hour after she was pregnant, and even the news that the emperor had not come out of Xihe Palace so far reached everyone's ears.

In the past, it was not that there were no concubines and concubines who were pregnant in the harem, but I had never seen the emperor pay such attention to it. The difference between whether the pregnant concubines were favored or not was too great.

On the contrary, the Empress had given a lot of things to Xihe Palace during this hour. None of these things were ordinary, but none of them were suspicious things.

The Queen's attitude seems to be very clear, and the importance of the fetus in Concubine Zhao's womb is also a warning to other concubines not to have unreasonable thoughts.

All the concubines and concubines felt a little strange in their hearts. In the past, they had never seen how close the Queen and Concubine Zhao were. What's more, if they remembered correctly, the Queen's cousin was abolished and had something to do with Concubine Zhao. How could the Queen be so virtuous and generous
