Baochai calmly took Yuanchun's hand away, and said with a relaxed smile, "Your Majesty, you have lost your mind. This medicine is a magic medicine to help your Majesty conceive. It is a prescription handed down by the Xue family ancestors. We don't understand medical theory. Can you move your hands and feet? Besides, the empress is pregnant and we are a hundred times more happy, but this may not be the case in the palace. Everyone here is staring at the empress with black eyes. If the empress has a body, she will become a thorn in the eyes of the concubines in the harem. The thorn in the flesh, and the only one beside the empress is her own, isn't it too thin? If Baochai enters the palace, wouldn't the empress add another helping hand? With Baochai to help the empress share the burden, the empress is afraid that the mother and child will not be safe. ?”

Yuan Chun looked at Baochai suspiciously, she had an intuition that this was not the case, but Baochai bit him to death, and Yuan Chun couldn't ask anything else.She asked firmly, "Is it that simple?"

Baochai laughed and said, "Of course it's that simple. Does your lady think that we have the intention of harming others? How is this possible? You have a body, which is a big deal to the Jia family, and even to the Xue family." Good thing."

Yuan Chun raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "It turns out that Sister Bao is worried about the safety of the palace, but there is no need for Sister Bao to worry about it. I have lived in the deep palace for a long time, and there is nothing in the palace that I can't see through. I am really worried about Jia. Regarding family matters, if Sister Bao agrees to marry Baoyu, it will relieve my worries."

Baochai saw that Yuanchun's oil and salt would not come in. Although she was a little anxious, she didn't show a trace on her face. She just smiled and said, "Your Majesty, it's better for you if Baochai enters the palace. You will understand in the future. Don't worry, anyway, the draft will be held after the spring of next year, and there are still a few months to go, it's not too late for the empress to think about it, but if the empress feels uncomfortable in these few months, it's best not to tell the imperial physician, just quietly Chuan Baochai is. I heard from my mother that anyone who takes the medicine to help conceive can be diagnosed after showing pregnancy. If the emperor knows that the mother has taken the medicine that the queen can only take, I am afraid that everyone will be convicted. It is a small matter for us to be convicted, but if the empress is convicted, it will not implicate the little prince in the womb. Therefore, if the empress is suffering, she must remember to pass on Baochai to share her worries. By the way, there is one more thing to tell the empress , because my aunt was arrested in Zongzheng Temple, and there was no possibility of her being released for a while, so the old lady entrusted Baochai to help manage the housekeeper, and Baochai will naturally work hard for a while, don't worry, empress."

Yuan Chun was slightly taken aback, looked into Baochai's eyes, and saw something inexplicable hidden in Baochai's eyes, even though she had been in the deep palace for many years, she couldn't see what was there.Yuan Chun asked in a low voice: "Have you ever tampered with the medicine?" Baochai smiled and said, "Of course not. It's just that this medicine was not meant for your mother to take, so if there is any abnormality after taking it, naturally you can't." It alarmed the doctors.Don't worry, empress, as long as you choose Baochai, nothing will happen, and empress can just give birth to Xiaolongzi in peace of mind.Look at the empress, although there are many concubines in the harem, who can give birth to so many sons? "

Yuan Chun was so angry that her chest heaved and fluctuated, she forced herself to calm down, and said with a faint smile: "Sister Bao is really considerate, I will remember what you said." Girl, since you also want to fight with me, just wait!" Yuan Chun insisted that as a noble concubine and pregnant, he would not really put little Baochai in his eyes, so he smiled slightly and said: "I am tired , Sister Bao, help me in."

Baochai respectfully supported Yuan Chun back to the apse, Baoqin hurriedly took it out, Yuanchun said lightly: "Go and invite old ladies and ladies over here." Chai said with a smile: "Sister Bao, Sister Lin is also in the palace now, do you think we should invite her to have a meal together?"

Baochai's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly concealed her smile and said, "Of course I want to invite you, and maybe I can take this opportunity to resolve Sister Lin's misunderstanding of my wife. As long as she is willing to withdraw the certificate, my aunt will be able to return home safely." Now, wouldn’t this be the best of both worlds?”

Yuan Chun nodded and said: "I have exactly this intention. Originally, I should invite you in person, but it is inconvenient for me, so you can go with the old lady. I just went to pay a visit to the empress to thank you, and I invited sister Lin here by the way."

Baochai always wanted to enter the palace, and when she heard that she had the opportunity to meet the queen, she was very happy. When Jia Mu heard that Daiyu was also in the palace, she naturally moved her mind. Now that Yuanchun is pregnant, Mother Jia felt that she had more leverage. She felt that if she talked with Daiyu now, Daiyu should be able to agree not to sue Mrs. Wang.

Since Daiyu left Jia's house, Sister Feng has been thinking about her all the time, but Mrs. Wang's actions made Sister Feng feel ashamed to see Daiyu. At this time, when she heard that Daiyu was in the palace, Sister Feng wanted to follow her.But Yuanchun actually asked Jia Mu to take Baochai, so Sister Feng had to stand aside.Mrs. Xing had other thoughts, so she stepped forward and said with a smile: "The emperor and queen have bestowed the grace of heaven, and the whole family is deeply honored. We should all go to thank you."

Yuan Chun saw that the words of the eldest lady whom he had never liked to see were reasonable, and it was not easy to refuse her, so he nodded and said: "Okay, let's all go, I'm afraid the empress will feel unhappy, everyone should be careful in words and deeds." It is."

Yuanchun sent two female palaces to lead the way. Jia Mu led Mrs. Xing, Sister Feng, and Baochai to Kunning Palace. You have to persuade her well, we are all close relatives, don't make too much noise. You little sisters are always kind, I think if you persuade her from the side, she will listen. "

Baochai hurriedly laughed and said, "Don't worry, old lady, Baochai will definitely persuade Sister Lin well. After a few days, Sister Lin will be relieved no matter how angry she is."

When I arrived at Kunning Palace, I asked the guards in front of the palace gate to report in. The queen was talking to Daiyu, and when everyone in Jia's mansion came to thank her, she said calmly: "Take them to the side hall, and see you later in this palace." .”

The guards led away, and the queen took Daiyu's hand and said with a smile: "Yu'er, I said that I would go to Qingtai Temple today, but it seems that I can't go today. Don't worry, we will definitely go tomorrow." of."

Daiyu smiled and said: "The palace is busy, so my aunt doesn't have to go to Qingtai Temple just for Yu'er, it doesn't matter where Yu'er is." What a fool, why was it just for you, my aunt was going to fulfill her wish, if it wasn't for Concubine Jia, both of us should have gone to Qingtai Temple by now."

Daiyu smiled obediently and said: "Auntie, my grandmother brought someone to thank you, Yu'er is not here, I'll go and see the little prince first, and after they leave, Yu'er will come to talk with auntie."

The queen nodded and smiled: "Alright, they will definitely cause more trouble when they see you. You should go to the apse first."

After Daiyu paid her respects, she went to see the little prince with Yingxia. The queen smiled and watched Daiyu enter the inner hall, then she suppressed her smile and said indifferently, "It is said that Jia Shishi and others will have an audience."

Baochai supported Jia Mu, followed by Mrs. Xing and Sister Feng. The four followed the servants into the hall with their heads down. They saluted on the worship mat. The queen said calmly, "Get up."

Mother Jia got up, raised her head and took a quick glance, but she didn't see Daiyu. She felt a little disappointed, but she still smiled and said, "The concubine thanked the lady for her kindness."

The queen said indifferently: "Concubine Jia is credited with conceiving an heir for the royal family. Although the royal family is strict in law, it does not hide its family affection. Concubine Jia is pregnant at the beginning, and Mrs. Jia should teach her more."

Mother Jia hurriedly bowed and said yes. Seeing that the queen described her as amiable and showed no displeasure on her face, she boldly said: "I must hear that my granddaughter Lin Daiyu is in the palace, so I beg the empress to let me and my concubine wait with her." Seeing the above, Yu'er was raised by the concubine's side since she was a child, and because of a misunderstanding, she left Jia's house in anger, and the concubine was really worried about it."

The queen raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Oh, so Yu'er is that kind of angry child? Why can't I see it like that? This child is very reasonable. Could it be that I misunderstood it?"

When Jia Mu heard this, she hurriedly knelt down and said, "The concubine made a slip of her tongue, please forgive me." Once Jia Mu knelt down, other people would also kneel down to plead guilty.For a moment, all the people in Jia's mansion, together with Baochai, knelt down on the ground.

The queen didn't cry out either, but said indifferently: "Madam Jia doesn't have to be like this either. In terms of reason, this palace shouldn't prevent your grandparents from meeting each other, but in terms of national principles... the second wife of the Jia family committed the crime because of The crown prince is trying this case, so Yu'er and your Jia family are the plaintiff and the defendant, it is very inappropriate for you to meet at this time, why don't we wait until the case is over." The queen rejected Jia Mu , which disappointed Jia Mu very much. She had prepared a whole lot of rhetoric, but it was useless if she couldn't see Daiyu.Baochai knelt behind Jiamu's side and peeked at the queen, only to see that the queen's dress was more luxurious than Yuanchun's. The bright yellow phoenix skirt shook Baochai's eyes so much that Baochai was so envious that she wished she could pull the queen down. Putting on the extremely luxurious cloud brocade back robe, he accepted the court congratulations aloofly.

Mother Jia came here this time, one for Xie En and one for meeting Daiyu, but the queen directly blocked her back, which made Jia mother very embarrassed.She didn't have the guts to disobey the Queen's will, but she didn't give up, so the Qianyuan Hall became cold for a while.The Queen looked at Mother Jia and the others standing below who were extremely uncomfortable, and said calmly: "Mrs. Jia came here for Concubine Jia. Since I have thanked you, let's go back."

Mother Jia and the others had no choice but to bow down again, thank you, and when they were about to leave, they saw Baochai kowtow and said, "Return to the empress, the imperial concubine is hosting a family banquet for relatives, and she is about to invite County Lord Lin to go. The empress is very pleased." I miss County Lord Lin, please..."

The queen's face darkened and her eyebrows raised, she said coldly: "Huanxia, ​​who is making the noise?"

Huanxia hurriedly stepped forward and said, "I would like to tell you, Madam Jia, that it's Mrs. Jia Tai's maid who has no rules and makes noise by herself."

The queen snorted coldly: "You are an old man, don't you know the rules?"

Huanxia understood, walked up to Baochai immediately, and scolded: "Bold bitch, dare to make noise in front of the empress, come here, drag him out and slap him for forty."

Baochai didn't expect that a single word from her would bring about disaster, she was terrified, knelt on the ground and just cried, two strong and healthy women ran in, picked up Baochai and dragged her out, and then there was a crisp slap and mouth Voice.Baochai was pampered and spoiled since she was a child, and she was never beaten before. With just one slap, Baochai was slapped, bleeding in the mouth and staring at her eyes, and howled non-stop.Did the punishment in the palace allow the slapped to cry? When Baochai cried, the executioner became angrier and his subordinates became more serious.But after four or five slaps, Baochai was beaten until she couldn't cry...

Mother Jia and the others knelt down hurriedly, and Mother Jia begged: "Empress, for the sake of the concubine's pregnancy, let this girl be spared once, and it can be counted as accumulating some merit for the unborn little dragon."

The queen snorted, and Huanxia hurriedly said: "Mrs. Jia is confused. If she follows the palace rules, she will be killed in court for her behavior like this bitch. Now she has enough sympathy. Jia Mrs. Tai, don't want to intercede again."

Mother Jia had no choice but to grit her teeth and listen to the crackling slaps, hating both Baochai for being ignorant of current affairs and the Queen for being merciless.After forty slaps were over, Baochai's full moon face had been slapped red and white like a pig's head. Two healthy women carried her in and threw her on the ground, ordering her to kowtow to thank her.Baochai's eyes were swollen from the beating, and she couldn't see who was who, so she kowtowed indiscriminately.The queen said indifferently: "Madame Jia, this is the imperial palace, not everyone can take it in. This time it's all for now, if this happens again in the future, I will never forgive you lightly."

Mother Jia was covered in white sweat from fright, kowtowed to plead guilty, and then left Kunning Palace with everyone in despair.Baochai lowered her head and covered her mouth and cried, but she didn't dare to cry aloud. From Jiamu down, everyone's face was gloomy, and everyone felt that Baochai was too ignorant and had no achievements except to make trouble.

After Jiamu and the others left, Yingxia came out with Daiyu, who frowned slightly and said, "Why is she here too, and she's so rude, it seems like a different person."

The queen hugged Daiyu into her arms and said with a smile: "Yu'er, don't care what they do, don't waste your energy on them, look at them, I don't know what they are thinking, don't you want to use Jiafei's body to control you, With me here, they don't even think about it."

Daiyu was touched and said lightly: "Thank you aunt for loving Yu'er."

"Mother, mother, queen..." Shui Qing's voice sounded, and he ran in quickly, and he shouted loudly, "Mother, just now, Qing'er saw a monster, it was so scary, and his head was red again." It's swollen again, and I can't see the nose, eyes, and mouth clearly." The queen smiled and said, "Oh, that's the mother who just punished an unruly servant."

Shui Qing asked curiously: "Mother, what mistake did she make?"

The queen laughed and said: "She is just a servant girl, but she dared to tell your sister Yu'er to go to Fengzao Palace in front of the queen mother."

Shui Qing jumped up angrily when she heard this, and shouted: "There is such a thing, queen mother, how did you punish her?" The queen laughed and said: "Slap her forty times."

Shui Qing immediately pouted and shouted: "No, no, this is too little. Queen Mother, Yilu, it's not too many to kill her."

The queen smiled and said, "Silly child, Concubine Jia Gui has just become pregnant, so there should be no murder in the palace."

Shui Qing snorted, and turned his head away, although he didn't say anything anymore, but he had a plan in his heart.

Mother Jia returns to Fengzao Palace with Baochai and others. Yuanchun is waiting for them to bring Lin Daiyu back, planning to give Daiyu a disarm with kindness and power, so that she can surrender Daiyu from then on.Yuan Chun thought very well, but he saw that Daiyu was not among the people who came back, but a girl wearing Baochai's clothes, but her face was swollen beyond recognition.

Yuan Chun pointed at Baochai and said in surprise, "Old lady, who is she?"

Jia Mu said angrily: "She is Bao girl, and this girl is honest. Seeing that the queen would not let us see Yu'er, she proposed to invite Yu'er to the banquet, but the queen accused her of being undisciplined and beat her severely. Called him out."

Hearing this, Yuan Chun patted his chest in fright and said: "Sister Bao, why did you go to provoke the empress? You must know that I have a body. If the empress doesn't say anything, she must be on fire. You're going to go at this time." It's really bad and ignorant to touch her bad luck."

Baochai was extremely aggrieved, but she didn't dare to say anything, she couldn't even cry, because crying would be a blow to Yuanchun.Looking at Baochai's pitiful and ridiculous look, Yuan Chun couldn't help but secretly laughed in her heart. She thought to herself: "Want to enter the palace? Is it so easy to enter? If you fight well, you have to dispel her idea. Once, the Queen Empress became my thug and did things for me."

Seeing that Yuanchun blamed Baochai, Jia's mother explained with a smile: "Bao girl also had good intentions. She has never seen much of the world, and it's pitiful to be beaten. Don't blame her."

Yuan Chun nodded and said: "Baoqin, go to the Imperial Hospital and ask for some Bingji Xueyu Cream." Baoqin hurriedly agreed and rushed to the Imperial Hospital.Yuan Chun smiled and said: "This Bingjixueyu ointment is the most effective in promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Sister Bao took it back and rubbed it on for half a month, and it will be almost healed."

Baochai had no choice but to kneel down again to thank her, but in her heart she hated the queen and Yuanchun.Secretly thinking that one day he will gain power, he must take revenge on these two women.

Not being able to see Daiyu, Jia's mother looked awkward, and Yuan Chun was also unhappy because the empress didn't give him face. The meal was not interesting, and it was over quickly.Jia's mother and the others wanted to stay in the palace for a while longer, but the chief eunuch sent people back and forth, saying that it was time to invite everyone in Jia's residence to leave the palace.

Yuan Chun felt even more embarrassing, but she knew that she didn't have the ability to fight against anyone, so she forced Jia Mu and others to go back with a forced smile.Mother Jia told Yuanchun to go back again, and then left 5 taels of silver for Yuanchun to manage up and down, and then the group walked out of the palace.

Jia Mu and the others were not of high grade, so they could only walk out of the palace slowly. As soon as they reached the Yu River, they saw a little boy dressed as a servant, sitting on the bank fishing, with a small bucket beside him. , there are only two or three pitiful kitten fish in the bucket.Jia Mu knew that there were no simple roles in the palace, so she led the crowd away from the little boy. When Baochai walked not far from the little boy, the little boy flicked the fishing rod, and the hook was hooked. Baochai's collar, the little boy pulled hard, Baochai was pulled over involuntarily, and kicked over the small bucket containing the fish.This time the little boy was annoyed, he jumped up and pulled Baochai and shouted: "Ugly, you are blind, you actually kicked over my small bucket, you pay me for it!"

Baochai's eyes were swollen from the beating, and she could only vaguely see a child dressed as a servant. She didn't think much about it, and immediately shouted: "You child is so unreasonable, it is clear that you used fish The hook grabs my clothes, what can I do instead?"

The little boy refused to give up, and cried and yelled at Baochai. Jia Mu stepped forward and frowned and said, "Don't cry, little brother. We will pay you for the fish."

This little boy is Shui Qing who came to find trouble intentionally, he shook his head and cried, "You all bully me, I'll tell my father-in-law to go."

After Baochai heard this, she really regarded Shuiqing as an ordinary child. She was so angry in the palace that she wanted to find a place to escape, so she pushed Shuiqing and said, "You child is too unreasonable. Get out of the way soon."

How could Shuiqing be willing to suffer? He bowed his head and slid past Baochai. When the two of them got their bodies wrong, Shuiqing quickly pushed Baochai's waist and pushed Baochai to the imperial court. in the river.Then he ran away without a trace, if not for the kicked keg on the ground, the people of Jia's mansion could hardly believe that there was a little boy here just now.

Baochai didn't know how to swim, and was bobbing up and down in the Yu River, shouting for help. Of course, Jia Muxing's wife, Fengjie, couldn't swim, so she could only watch but couldn't help.Sister Feng suddenly saw a guard passing by not far away, so she yelled loudly.

The guards arrived quickly and rescued Baochai in a hurry. Baochai was filled with water, and there was some air coming out but not in. The guards hurriedly held Baochai on a big rock. , finally rescued her back.

Baochai burst into tears after waking up. Mother Jia and the others frowned. They were not fools, and now they all figured it out. master.

"Sister Bao, don't cry, anyone you meet in this palace may be the master, let's talk about it when we go home." Sister Feng kindly persuaded Baochai while wiping her tears.

Baochai just cried, this time when she entered the palace, she was even more useless than the last time, the last time she was just pretending to be a maid, and she didn't suffer any physical grievances after all, this time it's good, not just suffering Beat, and was framed and almost drowned.Baochai cried, "Old lady, you have to decide for me!"

Mother Jia frowned and said, "Girl Bao, I know you have been wronged, but this is the palace, and we are all slaves. Let's go home, and I will scare you when we get home."

Baochai also understood that what Jia's mother said was reasonable, so she had to endure the grievance and hatred in her heart for the time being, and returned to Jia's house in a disheartened manner.After arriving home, when Aunt Xue saw Baochai's horrific appearance, she naturally threw herself on her and cried loudly, crying until Mother Jia and the others were ashamed. It was embarrassing for everyone.
