Because Yun Fenghuang was in charge of the Sixth Palace, whether she remembered the birth of the concubine or not, someone would definitely come to report it.
But firstly, there were many heirs in the palace now, and secondly, the Xu family's position as the emperor's favorite was not outstanding, so after the emperor and the noble concubine heard about it, they didn't take it seriously.
Yun Fenghuang then ordered: "Let an imperial doctor go over and take a look. If anything happens, come back and report it."
The imperial concubine continued chatting.
Half a day later, another palace official came over, saying that the Daxu family had a difficult childbirth. This was something Yun Fenghuang expected. After all, the head of the Daxu family, Concubine Mu, was worried about leaving her mother and leaving her son, so what? Is it possible for Mrs. Xu to give birth peacefully
In front of the emperor, Yun Fenghuang didn't say much, and only said: "Let the imperial doctors and ladies do their best."
The visitor did not move, and said with a troubled face: "The imperial doctor said that if this continues, it will be difficult to have both ends. Concubine Mu will not dare to make the decision. I would like to ask your majesty what to do?"
"..." Yun Fenghuang looked grim for a moment, then laughed angrily, "Concubine Mu has taken care of the eldest Xu family since she was pregnant. It is said that these days, Concubine Mu treats the eldest Xu family like a biological sister, and even the queen is compared to her. Went down, what? She feels embarrassed now, isn’t it difficult for His Majesty to be here? Tell the imperial doctor that both of them must be preserved, otherwise, His Majesty is lenient, and I will not be merciful! "
Upon seeing this, the waiters on the left and right quickly dragged out the palace servant who wanted to say something else.
Chunjia remained silent until then and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I am at the imperial concubine's place today, otherwise, I would have come to pick up this hot potato."
"Your Majesty is joking. How can it be difficult to defeat Your Majesty in such a matter?" Yun Feng Huangxin said, it's not like you haven't chosen before. How can you be criticized for being a mere big Xu family? She did this because she was impatient with Concubine Mu, but she also did it for Chunjia to see, "I just don't want to see these people. I know that His Majesty is busy with government affairs and rarely relaxes for a while. Come here to disturb me. Is it because the Queen has neglected the palace affairs, or is it that I and my sister De Concubine have nothing to do? I know that I will leave everything to His Majesty. It is obvious that His Majesty is generous and easy to bully!"
The emperor was indeed very helpful and said with a smile: "What am I afraid of? There are noble concubines on my left and right protecting me."
"Where did I get the ability to protect your majesty?" Yun Fenghuang squinted at him and asked, "I just can't stand it, and I was impulsive... Don't let your majesty listen to other people's cries the next day and feel that I am too fierce. That’s good.”
However, the emperor did not accept her as the general. Instead, he said: "Huh? Impulsive? So, the imperial concubine does not intend to protect me all the time? Then I am moved for nothing."
"Your Majesty is really bad at learning." Yun Fenghuang was quite speechless and sighed, "You were not like this before. You used to explain to me in a hurry. You will never listen to the slander."
Chunjia couldn't hold back her laughter and said, "You still have the nerve to say that? When I think about it later, I always feel that I was tricked by you many times in the past."
"What's the matter?" Yun Fenghuang refused to admit it, "I like Your Majesty the most..."
"Yes, yes, that's it." Chunjia sighed, "How many times have you said it, and I'm afraid you don't even remember it? What's the result?"
He half-truthfully complained, "What you care about most is not Prince Jin and his children, why would you put me in front of them?"
Yun Fenghuang said: "What your Majesty said, I just care more about the children because they are still young and need to be taken care of. If it weren't for Your Majesty, where would these children come from? How could I even be like this? Can’t you tell the difference between priorities?”
The emperor was still waiting to refute, but she said again, "Besides, if I am the only one worrying about you, then I will definitely not dare to slack off at all. But among the many concubines of the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard, how many of them have the same idea? All my love is tied to you. I think that I am slacking off occasionally, but I am not afraid of anything wrong with your majesty. After all, so many people are thinking about you. But the children under my knees, except for my concubine, , how many people will help take care of it, your majesty, don’t you think so?”
… With the existence of the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard, it seems that I will never be able to defeat the noble concubine.
Chunjia realized this, coughed dryly, and changed the topic again: "Yesterday, I received a message from King Yi to greet him. He has cheered up a lot over the years. He has put forward many opinions on the vassal state, and I think they are all Very pertinent.”
"This is a good thing." Yun Fenghuang once again was magnanimous and did not pursue it. He agreed with a half-smile, "It's time for King Yi to grow up. But I wonder if your Majesty will call him back during the Chinese New Year?"
Chunjia said casually: "That kid wants to come back? Did he give you a favor?"
"Where are you thinking, Your Majesty?" Yun Fenghuang said, "You have forgotten that our Xiao Qi's direct aunt is Princess Yi, right? Princess Yi has always loved Xiao Qi, although when she followed King Yi to join the vassal, Xiao Qi was still I'm still young, but I still vaguely remember it. I accidentally mentioned it to me a few months ago. Therefore, if His Majesty calls King Yi back for a reunion, I think that Xiao Qi will also have a chance to meet Princess Yi."
The emperor suddenly felt that the imperial concubine was indeed a loving mother. She had so many children under her knees, but she still remembered the small wish of an adopted son, so he said with a smile: "I haven't decided yet, but since Ahuang you have spoken, then I will give it to King Yi." Just write the edict."
When King Yi was mentioned, he thought of Marquis Yongchun again and pondered slightly, "Marquis Yongchun has become a filial piety, so he has to worry about the marriage. I remember that I mentioned this before? But then there were a lot of miscellaneous things, but I couldn't. Let it go."
Yun Fenghuang said with a smile: "There are still some days left. If your Majesty does not have a candidate for a while, it is better to let it go first so as not to worry too much."
The main reason is that she hasn't decided yet whether or how to mix it up.
Chunjia didn't know what the imperial concubine was thinking, so she thought it made sense, so she didn't mention it. Next, the two of them chatted and laughed around the King of Jin and the emperor's heirs. In the evening, Yun Fenghuang got up to see her off... Finally, she called someone to ask questions. The result of the big Xu production.
Qingren said: "I don't know yet."
Yun Fenghuang was quite surprised: "Don't know?"
"They are still fighting for their lives over there, and the emperor's heir hasn't come out yet." Qingren whispered, "Po Wen said that she might end up tonight... Concubine Mu just went to Yanfu Palace in person to cry, and the empress had no choice but to He let her go for a while, but it was just a slap on the face of the imperial doctor Wen Po. After all, who can say for sure about having half a foot in the coffin? What a good background Concubine Wen Huixian had, and such a position It’s not enough... The Queen Mother left after she finished explaining, saying that she felt uncomfortable because she couldn’t hear Da Xu’s screams.”
In fact, I just don't care.
Also, the queen herself was unable to give birth, and listening to others giving birth to survive could not help but touch her own regret of not having children.
In addition, the Zhonggong has many children, and the Xu family's birth is not rare. Concubine Mu is. However, there have been many barriers between her and the queen. No matter how easy it is to talk to the queen, it is impossible to put herself in her shoes now, and she is willing to Gu Zhenxing, a child of Yourou, can no longer be cruel to sisters of the same race.
"Then let them go." Yun Fenghuang nodded slightly and said quietly, "Whether or how many children Concubine Mu has, it has nothing to do with us."
Anyway, unless she and the queen collapse, there is basically no chance for anyone else in the palace.
She didn't want to pay too much attention to this matter, so she asked again, "How is Ru Nan doing now? Is there anyone among the newcomers who is particularly favored by His Majesty?"
"... This." Qingren thought for a while, shook his head and said, "After the Queen gave the arrangements to His Majesty, Your Majesty had no objections. These days have been in order, and I haven't particularly liked or disliked anyone. However, I heard that Li Jieyu volunteered to dance for His Majesty, but His Majesty refused."
Yun Fenghuang twitched the corners of his mouth, remembering his actions when he first entered the palace.
Regarding Chunjia's refusal, I couldn't say I was grateful or relieved, but I had to say that at least I was in a better mood.
Ever since she took possession of the special house, although the previous harems had mixed reputations, concubines from poor families all followed her as an example.
Envy, jealousy, and hatred, and even more desire to transcend.
In Yun Fenghuang's own case, she had worked hard for several days, guarding against the suppression of high-ranking people from a noble family, and how could she not guard against the oppression of people from poor families stepping on her to climb up
"These little tricks of hers are all left over from when I first entered the palace." The imperial concubine said lightly, "But they are too young to use against His Majesty now. But young newcomers are always ambitious. It's vigorous. Let her go... It's just that His Majesty just pays it back step by step, but he also behaves honestly among the newlyweds? "
The Qing Dynasty said: "How is it possible? There were several concubines in the palace who were unable to sleep with her due to various reasons, and were eventually cut off by the emperor. Especially those in Jing Jieyu's palace."
This result surprised Yun Fenghuang: "Jing Jieyu? Why her?"
Although it would be embarrassing to talk about the matter of competing for the favor of the people in the palace, it is actually not uncommon.
After all, no one is stupid. Even if the emperor's heir in the palace has to be raised by the chief, who would care to raise other people's children if they can have their own flesh and blood
Besides, the four newly promoted Jieyu are not like Yun Fenghuang, whose status is already stable. Even though they have promoted the two concubines Qu Hongzhuan and Yi Xingen, the two concubines still dare not make mistakes and have to obey them honestly. At her feet.
If these four Jieyu didn't think of ways to suppress the people under them, maybe one day the emperor would be impulsive and give some support to the concubines under them, and then the priorities would be reversed
Concubine An back then was just an example!
Therefore, Yun Fenghuang had long expected that there would be no harmony between these new leaders and the people in the palace.
But she estimated that Li Jieyu and Nalu's Jieyu were most likely to do such a thing.
Unexpectedly, it was Jiang Mingdan who did the most
This aroused Yun Fenghuang's interest: "Why did Mrs. Jiang do this? Although people in the palace are often controlled by the chief, they dare not speak out when they are angry, but when she first entered the palace, her foundation was not deep, so she was not afraid of being taken advantage of. Is this a big deal?"
