Miss Lin Family of the Red Chamber

Meng Yan, who was four or five months old, got off the sedan chair with the support of two maids, and the two maids carefully supported Meng Yan back to Nianfang Courtyard.

"The young lady is back."

I don't know if it was the maidservant who had sharp eyes, and when she saw Meng Yan came back, she immediately ran back to report.

Just as Meng Yan entered the hospital, Yan Chengze came out, and Yan Chengze took over from the servant girl to support Meng Yan.

"Come back, you're tired."

"I'm a little tired. The harem is too big. Yaohua Palace is far away from Shunzhen Gate. It's still snowing and the road is difficult to walk. My feet are almost useless when I get there."

"Sit down and rest for a while."

Yan Chengze helped Meng Yan to sit on the cushioned couch.

"It's also fortunate that I'm different. If it were an ordinary person, I wouldn't be able to get out of the palace." Yan Chengze naturally knew what Meng Yan meant. Meng Yan meant that it was fortunate that she was a monk and had a strong body.

"Your feet hurt, I'll ask the servant girl to pour hot water for Le Bubble." He said and called the servant girl to pour water.

"Why are you at home today? You didn't go on a business trip in the morning, and you'll be back early this time."

"I have something to go to far away tomorrow, so come back early today to prepare."

"Be good, kid."

"These two are more well-behaved than the two brothers, I think they should be the two daughters."

Meng Yan is pregnant with her second child, which is also a twin, perhaps because Meng's gene for twins has been passed on to her.

"Daughter, give birth to two daughters just like your wife."

Yan Chengze, who was often irritated by his two sons, cared very little for his daughter.

"When I entered the palace today, the imperial doctor happened to be taking the pulse of Shugui's concubine to ease the pregnancy. He also took my pulse along the way. The imperial doctor said that it is very likely that it is the two daughters."

Thinking of the white and fat little niece of her mother's family, Meng Yan felt very curious.

"Your concubine is about to give birth."

"No, it should be at the end of this month and the beginning of next month. In short, it's just these few days. His Majesty has allowed your mother to stay and wait for her to give birth. I can rest assured that my mother is here."

Meng Yan went to the palace with Mrs. Meng today to see Daiyu. Daiyu's delivery date is approaching, and His Majesty attaches great importance to Daiyu's birth, so she specially allowed Mrs. Meng to enter the palace to attend Daiyu's delivery.

Because of her youth, beauty, talent, and good family background, Daiyu was favored by Emperor Jingxing as soon as she entered the palace.Only one year after entering the palace, she was promoted to Jieyu from the third rank. After she became pregnant, Emperor Jing Xing even promoted her to be a noble concubine, and gave her the title Shu again.

Giving the word Shu as a title means that as long as Daiyu's fetus can give birth to a prince, the position of Concubine Shu, the head of the four concubines, must be hers.

Emperor Jingxing's heirs are weak, and he has been emperor for many years, but now there are only two princes and six princesses.Although there are three pregnant women in the palace, Emperor Jing Xing's most important thing is Daiyu's child.Because the imperial doctor had concluded that Daiyu's fetus must be a prince, Emperor Jing Xing ordered the imperial doctor to protect Daiyu and give her the title Shu.

Of course, this also aroused countless jealousies for Daiyu, and Daiyu had to go through many hardships to survive until now.

"You don't have to worry, mother has already told the imperial concubine that the imperial concubine will protect the concubine."

Two months ago, Empress Su, who had been suffering from illness for several years, finally died of illness. Empress Su passed away just after the first seven days of the Supreme Emperor, and she followed the Supreme Empress.One month after Empress Su left, Emperor Jing Xing issued an order that he and Empress Su would no longer stand as empresses because of their deep affection, and then promoted Yan Guifei to be the imperial concubine to lead the harem.

The Yan family has already seen clearly that Emperor Jing Xing would not allow a daughter of the Yan family to give birth to a prince with the blood of the Yan family.After the imperial concubine had a dystocia and injured her body, the Yan family sent another branch's daughter into the palace, but she died of a miscarriage and collapse within a year after entering the palace.As a result, the Yan family saw what Emperor Jing Xing was thinking, and no longer entered the palace from the daughter of the Yan family, and the Yan family turned to support Daiyu in the dark.

It is better to support Daiyu than to adopt the sons of other concubines.Not to mention the fear of raising a white-eyed wolf, even if you want to hug, you have to be hugged.Emperor Jing Xing only has two sons now, and the mothers and concubines of the two princes are the fourth-ranked Consort De and Concubine Hui respectively.The fourth concubine is already in a very high position, how could their son be adopted.

But Daiyu is different. Meng Yan's marriage to the Yan family already represents the alliance between the Yan family and the Lin family. Whether it is the blood of the Yan family or the Lin family, both the Yan family and the Lin family can continue to prosper.

Although anyone with a discerning eye could see it, but in order not to arouse Emperor Jing Xing's taboo, it was clear that the Imperial Concubine Li and Daiyu were not close in the palace.

"Fortunately, there is our imperial concubine protecting Yu'er, otherwise, Yi Yu'er's innocent temperament would have suffered a lot. Forget it, I heard from Yu'er that many virtuous concubines summoned her, even though Yu'er is already a noble concubine The master is gone, but Concubine Xiande is a noble concubine, she summoned Yu'er, how could Yu'er not go; if she didn't go, people would say that Yu'er is arrogant and disrespectful."

"Didn't you say that Concubine Xiande is pregnant? I heard that it's less than three months. She should be busy raising the baby at this moment, and she shouldn't bother your concubine any more."

Concubine Xiande is pregnant, and Jia's mansion donates porridge to do good deeds, burns incense and worships Buddha to pray for Concubine Xiande and the little prince, etc. The actions are so big that no one in the whole capital knows that Concubine Xiande is pregnant.He only found out about it after listening to rumors, otherwise how could he, a foreign minister, know about the harem so quickly.Jia's mansion has always been arrogant, if it wasn't for the period of national filial piety, I am afraid that Jia's mansion might throw a banquet to celebrate.

"I heard that she is pregnant, and it has been more than two months. Now she is very nervous. I heard that Concubine Xiande has spoken, and she is in Fengzao Palace to raise her baby. For Concubine Xiande's baby, the temples inside and outside the capital Old Madam Jia paid homage all over, saying that Taoist Qing Xu had judged that the concubine Xiande was conceived by Daoist Zhang, so she must be a prince."

There was a great uproar in the palace about this matter, not to mention inside the palace, many people outside the palace knew about it.

Yan Chengze couldn't help laughing out loud as he spoke, and Meng Yan couldn't help snorting and sneering.

"It's funny, this pregnancy didn't ask the imperial doctor to ask for the pulse, but asked the priest, how does the Taoist know whether the concubine Xiande is pregnant with a prince or a princess."

In fact, Meng Yan wanted to say more in his heart, this kind is not from a Taoist priest, how does he know a man and a woman, even if he is a child, he may not know.

"But it's good that she's pregnant, at least Concubine Xiande can't trouble Yu'er before Yu'er gives birth; and when my mother and I go to see Yu'er in the palace again, we don't have to be summoned by her to listen to those specious words. "

It will take three months to secure the pregnancy, at least until the concubine Xiande is pregnant, she will not leave Fengzao Palace, and Daiyu will give birth after she secures the pregnancy.But when Meng Yan thought of her and Meng's going to see Daiyu in the palace, she would often be summoned by the concubine Jia Xiande, and hearing what she said about relatives and other alliances, Meng Yan felt very sick in her heart.

"Wouldn't it be better that way."

Yan Chengze himself knew what Meng Yan said. Every time he heard concubine Jia Xiande say those specious things, Meng Yan would complain to Yan Chengze when he came back, but Yan Chengze knew a lot.

"When the water comes, you soak your feet first to get rid of the cold and relieve fatigue."

Yan Chengze dismissed the maid who was going to serve, and he took off Meng Yan's shoes and socks himself, put the small and exquisite jade feet that he could hold in the palm of his hand into the hot water, and massaged Meng Yan himself.

Looking at the exquisite jade feet that were as white as jade, Yan Chengze fell in love with him, and he loved everything about his beloved wife, Yan Chengze. Of course, this was also because Meng Yan was perfect in everything.

This is not the first time Yan Chengze has washed Meng Yan's feet. The appropriate pressure makes her feel comfortable, and Meng Yan can't help squinting her eyes and moaning comfortably.After a while, feeling that her feet didn't hurt as much, Meng Yan stretched out her hand and tugged at Yan Chengze.

"Okay, don't pinch, you can make bubbles together too."

Yan Chengze added some hot water to the basin, removed his shoes and socks and put his feet in the copper basin to soak.

Soaking feet together and washing each other's feet is something that young couples often do, and it is also a little fun between husband and wife.

Yan Chengze went on a long trip, and his two sons were beaten and given to their great-grandfather, while Meng Yan stayed at home raising the baby and waiting for news of Daiyu's birth.

But before the news of Daiyu's delivery came, the news of Concubine Xiande's miscarriage came first.

"How did you come back? Didn't Concubine Xiande close her palace to raise her baby? Why did she have a miscarriage?" Meng Yan was puzzled, and immediately sent someone to investigate secretly.

As for Concubine Xiande's miscarriage, Meng Yan didn't care, she was more concerned about whether Daiyu would be involved in this matter.But then he thought that Daiyu was waiting to give birth in Yaohua Palace, so it should have nothing to do with her.

However, Meng Yan was not at ease. She didn't feel relieved until the definite news that Daiyu had nothing to do with it. Thinking that the Meng family was still in the palace, Meng Yan decided to hand over the sign and wait until the first day of December before entering the palace. Look at Daiyu.

On the first morning of the new year, Meng Yan and Mrs. Yan entered the palace together, and Mrs. Yan naturally went to see Huanggui.It was already the twelfth lunar month, and the palace was busy with New Year's affairs, Meng Yan went to Yaohua Palace after greeting the imperial concubine.

Went to Yaohua Palace to see Daiyu and Meng Shi, and confirmed that Daiyu and Meng Shi were all fine, the miscarriage of Concubine Xiande had nothing to do with them and would not affect Yaohua Palace, so Meng Yan was relieved.

Meng Yan also learned the inside story of Concubine Xiande's miscarriage from Daiyu. Apart from the fact that too many people in the harem did not want Concubine Xiande to give birth to an heir, there are also those pregnancy-preserving prescriptions entered by Jia's family that are the key to Concubine Xiande's miscarriage. reason.

Meng Yan just smiled when she heard it, and Meng Yan could only say that she was numb to Jia's behavior of looking for death.Ever since Daiyu entered the palace, Meng Yan hadn't paid attention to the personnel affairs of Jia's mansion for a long time.

Now that the patron of the nobles, the Supreme Emperor, has fallen, and Concubine Jia Xiande has had a miscarriage again, it seems that it should not be far from Jia's house raiding.Meng Yan decided to inquire about Jia's news, and it happened that she was very bored these days, listening to gossip to pass the time.

Meng Yancai came out of the palace, and the news of Concubine Shugui's birth came out in the palace that afternoon.It's just that Meng Yan is heavy, and Yan Chengze decided to hide it from her.In the early morning of the next day, good news spread from the palace that Concubine Shugui gave birth to a prince in the early morning of the second day of junior high school, and the mother and child were safe.Emperor Jingxing got a new dragon son, and the dragon's face was very happy, so he immediately decreed that Jin Shugui's concubine should be a concubine.

Although Meng Yan was happy that Daiyu gave birth to a dragon son and was promoted to the throne, she was more worried that she would be favored too much, making Daiyu jealous, and worried that others would harm Daiyu's little prince.For this reason, Meng Yan specially found an anti-drug pearl in the space and brought it to the palace for Daiyu's little prince.
