Concubine Li was sulking in Zhongxiu Palace, when she suddenly heard the little maid whispering outside, vaguely saying that the concubine was pregnant, Concubine Li finally found a way to vent her pent-up anger, she patted The table yelled: "Who is making noise outside, why don't you get me in..."

The little maids didn't expect that they would be heard by Concubine Li when they spoke in a low voice in a far corner. They were so frightened that they trembled all over, and two older maids walked out of the room. Alright, don't talk nonsense to your empress." The little palace maid shook her head and nodded, she rubbed against the wall and walked into Concubine Li's room.Pin Li slapped the table and shouted, "What are you talking about?"

The little palace maid knelt down and tremblingly said: "The slaves didn't say anything..."

Concubine Li slapped the little maid on the face, and shouted angrily: "If you don't say anything, I will send you to the Punishment Department." The Punishment Department is the nightmare of eunuchs and maids in the palace. When it comes to the Department of Punishment, these court ladies and eunuchs will feel chills down their backs under the bright sun.Therefore, the little palace maid threw the words of the big palace maid just now out of the blue, and quickly shouted: "My servant just heard that Jia Guifei is pregnant."

Li Pin fell down on the chair in shock, opened her eyes and asked in disbelief: "How is this possible? She is already so old, how could she still have a body? Who did you listen to?"

The little palace maid hurriedly said: "The words of Hui Niangniang are absolutely true, and the palace has already spread the word. The imperial doctor has already caught the pulse, so it is absolutely true."

Concubine Li twisted the handkerchief into a knot angrily, and said shyly, "When did this happen?"

The little maid hurriedly said: "Before the empress left the palace to worship the Buddha, the empress Jia Guifei found out that she was pregnant."

Concubine Li hated her to death, but this is a deep palace, since she was punished, she also thought about it a lot, acting according to her temper, she would run into walls everywhere in this palace.Concubine Li now only wants the emperor to lift her confinement order, and then strive to win the emperor's favor, so that she can have a lifetime of support if she has another child.I just want to think about it, since the day the emperor drove her back, he never saw her again. There is never a shortage of beauties in the palace, and Concubine Li was very worried that the emperor had forgotten herself.Now that Concubine Jia was pregnant, after the initial shock and jealousy, Concubine Li quickly made plans, wanting to use the marriage with the Jia family to turn things around for herself.

Seeing Concubine Li tightening the veil vigorously, the little maid didn't dare to speak, she just knelt on the ground and dared not vent her anger.Just as Concubine Li was making plans, someone suddenly shouted outside: "Concubine Li accepts the order." The voice seemed to be that of Eunuch Lu who was beside the emperor.

Concubine Li was refreshed, jumped up and shouted: "Hurry up, hurry up, you two, get up and dress me up, I want to receive the order." After entering the room, I heard Lu Gonggong walked in quickly and shouted loudly: "Concubine Li accepts the order."

Concubine Li had no choice but to turn around and knelt down to accept the order. Eunuch Lu waved his whisk and said, "The emperor said that concubine Li's feet should be lifted, and she is allowed to walk in the palace."

Concubine Li was overjoyed, kowtowed to express her gratitude, and ordered someone to bring a gift to reward Lu Gonggong, Xiao Luzi followed the emperor, he had never seen any good things, so he just thanked him lightly and accepted the things without tea Go back and reply.

Zhongxiu Palace swept away the old days, and everyone rushed to congratulate Concubine Li, and Concubine Li also beamed with joy. Although she hadn't resumed her concubine position, Concubine Li believed that with her beauty, it was only a matter of time to be concubine again. It was a matter of time, she smiled happily, and all the court ladies gathered Concubine Li to the dressing table, dressed her up in a hurry, and found beautiful clothes in beautiful colors, and surrounded Concubine Li to put them on, Concubine Li looked Looking at the beautiful girl in the dressing mirror, she has more confidence in herself.

"Concubine Jia is pregnant and we should also congratulate her. Chun'er, go and prepare a gift. Let's go to Fengzao Palace." Concubine Li looked at herself in the mirror and said softly.Although Concubine Jia was pregnant, she was not happy, but the two families got married after all, and Concubine Jia had a child, and she would be her help in the future.What's more, I was punished this time because of Concubine Jia, this kind of favor is just what I said.

Concubine Li was wearing a brand-new water-red satin palace dress, surrounded by pearls and emeralds, and specially put on the jade hairpin that Yuan Chun gave her, and then put two female officials on her hands, and brought four court ladies and four eunuchs to carry the gifts Walk towards Fengzao Palace in a big way.

Yuanchun was pregnant, Fengzao Palace was supposed to be full of people, but because of this, the emperor's attitude towards Jia Guifei was not clear, and he didn't even order a harem concubine to congratulate him, so not many people gave gifts to Fengzao Palace, except for some The low-ranking ones promised to stay with the nobles, and none of the other important concubines came. The harem masters didn't have a fuel-efficient lamp, and everyone was watching.Therefore, Concubine Li gave gifts to Fengzao Palace with such great fanfare, and it turned into a western scene in the palace.Along the way, many palace people looked sideways.

Knowing that she is pregnant, Yuan Chun has become a hundred times more careful. She knows that it is risky to have a baby when she is old, so she has to eat three meals a day in bed, for fear that if she moves too much, she will move to a baby that is hardly even mentioned. gas.Therefore, hearing Concubine Li coming to congratulate her, Yuan Chun only half-lyed on the bed and said indifferently: "Unexpectedly, she was released from the ban, holding the qin, you go to meet Concubine Li."

Seeing Yuanchun being so arrogant, Baoqin wanted to persuade Yuanchun a few words, but knew that Yiyuanchun's temperament would definitely not listen to persuasion, so he had to shake his head slightly and walked out quickly.

"My servant has seen the empress." Baoqin bowed and saluted. She knew that Concubine Li was very concerned about being demoted, so she only called empress and not her title, which made Concubine Li feel very comfortable hearing it.She said with a smile: "The lady holding the piano, please, is the concubine sister okay?"

Baoqin stepped forward to help Concubine Li and said with a smile: "Your Majesty is pregnant for the first time, and the fetus is not stable. The imperial doctor told your Majesty to rest in bed. Our Majesty does not dare to be careless, but we are neglecting Your Majesty."

Concubine Li nodded and said with a smile: "This is what it should be, please ask the lady holding the piano to accompany me to visit the empress."

Yuan Chun heard the sound of Concubine Li coming in, leaned on the pillow and slowly sat up, and said with a reserved smile: "Sister Li Concubine is here, please sit down and rest, hold the piano, and go make the good tea brought by the old lady Let's have a taste with Sister Lipin."

Concubine Li stepped forward and took Yuan Chun's hand and said with a smile: "Sister, don't say such unreasonable things. We are not only sisters, but relatives in law. We should be closer than others." As soon as this matter was mentioned, Yuan Chun regretted it in his heart. Seeing that Concubine Li was favored at the beginning, she reluctantly let her family marry the Liu family. Who would have thought that Concubine Li fell out of favor overnight and was even demoted. Although Tan Chun and Yuan Chun It wasn't born of the same mother, but Yuan Chunsu knew that Tan Chun was capable. In her heart, Tan Chun should have a greater role. Marrying a stupid younger brother of Concubine Li who fell out of favor was really a loss.

Yuan Chun said with a dry smile, "Sister Li Pin is right." But in his heart he wanted to vomit blood.

Concubine Li laughed again and said: "After all, it is the concubine who is blessed to be able to conceive a dragon son. Good sister, the last time I begged for my sister, my sister was demoted. Now I ask my sister to help her more before the emperor." .”

Yuan Chun was annoyed in his heart, and said to himself: "Who knows why you were demoted, and now you are still relying on me, you really cunning person, seeing that I have a body now, I am too busy Asking for directions, hum! Thinking about it, Yuan Chun won't show his face, he just smiled and said, "Sister Lipin, don't worry, as long as there is something my sister can do, my sister will definitely help.But... the emperor is busy with state affairs, now that I have a body again, he doesn't have much interest in the harem, sister, don't worry. "

Concubine Li felt bored by being blocked by Yuan Chun, but she had to laugh along with her and said, "Sister said yes, so of course my sister is not in a hurry. By the way, do you know which sister is serving today?"

Yuan Chun smiled complacently and said: "Sister Li-pin doesn't know something. Ever since the emperor knew that I was pregnant, she never called anyone to sleep with me." You can help and support my younger sister. My older sister has a dragon son and she can rely on her, but my younger sister has nothing, so I beg you to speak a few words of kindness for her in front of the emperor."

Yuan Chun had a smile on his face and felt bitter in his heart, the emperor had not summoned anyone to sleep with him for a long time, it was because the emperor slept in the queen's palace every night, something was wrong, the emperor now had only the queen in his heart.Yuan Chun is naturally very aware of this situation, but she doesn't want to tell Concubine Li.

"Sister Lipin, don't worry, my sister will intercede for you as soon as the emperor comes. With my sister's talent and looks, I'm afraid that the emperor will not change his mind, but the emperor is busy now, my sister must not be in a hurry." Yuan Chun Xu Xu replied.

Concubine Li smiled awkwardly and said: "No hurry, no rush, as long as sister has the heart, it's fine, and sister takes care of her." Concubine Li only knew that she and Yuan Chun were relatives by marriage, and Yuan Chun would always help her, but she didn't know that Jia Yuanchun was a fool. When a bodhisattva crosses the river, he cannot protect himself.Concubine Li presented a heavy gift, Yuan Chun saw that those gifts were nothing more than satin playthings, if she had seen them in the past, but now it is different, the Jia family sent in a lot of silver things, all of which are more expensive than Li. The concubine's gift was very valuable, so Yuan Chun didn't take concubine Li's gift seriously.Concubine Li could see that Yuan Chun didn't value the gift she gave her, and her heart was very sour. Her family was not considered rich, and her time in the palace was short, so she didn't have many valuable things to give. Already very distressed.Suppressing the unhappiness in her heart, Li Pin forced herself to chat and laugh with Yuan Chun before resigning from Yuan Chun and going back.

As soon as Concubine Li left, Yuan Chun called out: "Baoqin, where is the emperor now?"

Baoqin hesitated for a moment, then hurriedly said: "Go back to your mother, the emperor is dealing with government affairs in the imperial study."

Yuan Chun hummed lightly and said: "That's all. Later, you choose a few decent things to give to Xiao Luzi, and let him say a few more words about Bengong in front of the emperor. Now that Bengong has a body, he should let the emperor Check it out more.”

Baoqin can only be called yes, but dare not say that the emperor is actually in the Kunning Palace. Now that the palace is full except Yuan Chun and Concubine Li, no one knows that the emperor eats with the empress during the day and sleeps with the empress at night. They were also moved to the study of Kunning Palace, the two of them were like glue, just like newlyweds.

Concubine Li came out of Fengzao Palace, full of displeasure, she hated Yuan Chun for being ruthless.Ordered those eunuchs and maids to go back to the palace first, Concubine Li walked around the palace with only two female officials, suddenly saw two rows of eunuchs who were in charge of serving meals, delivering breakfast to Kunning Palace, counting more than a hundred people , Concubine Li couldn't help frowning and said: "How come the empress has increased her status again, and she is on par with the emperor."

The maid next to Concubine Li hurriedly said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, be careful, now the emperor is resting in the middle palace."

Li Pin suddenly turned her head and stared wide-eyed in surprise, "What did you say?"

The maid hurriedly approached Li Concubine and whispered a few words in her ear, Li Concubine's face turned red and pale, she grabbed the maid's hand and said: "Are you telling the truth?"

The palace maid hurriedly nodded and said: "This servant dare not lie to the empress."

Concubine Li said bitterly: "What a noble concubine Jia, to deceive me like this. Hmph, let's go!"

The two maids didn't know where Concubine Li was going, they looked at each other, and lowered their heads to follow Concubine Li with bitter faces, when the two maids were thinking about how to persuade Concubine Li not to confront Concubine Jia. During the conflict, it was discovered that Concubine Li did not go to Fengzao Palace, but to Kunning Palace.

Concubine Li begged to see her, the queen glanced at the emperor, and said teasingly: "Is the emperor doing favors for the concubine again?"

The emperor laughed and said: "This concubine Li is not afraid of trouble and can make trouble. Let her come out and make trouble with Jia Yuanchun, and she can give us some children."

The queen gave the emperor a blank look, the emperor laughed, pulled the queen to his side, hugged her and sat down, and said to the following: "Call Concubine Li to come in."

The queen looked back at the emperor and said angrily: "Brother Tian, ​​you are becoming more and more disrespectful..."

The emperor stole a sweet scent on the queen's cheek, and said with a proud smile: "It's just an unruly thing to you!"

Concubine Li went to the palace and saw that the emperor and the empress were stuck together like glue, the empress's face was flushed, and she looked more radiant than before.Concubine Li's heart was sour, as if she had knocked over the jar of old vinegar, it was bitter and astringent.But I still had to put on a submissive smile, knelt up and said: "My concubine thanked the emperor and empress for her kindness."

The emperor hummed lightly, and the queen smiled lightly and said, "Sister Lipin, get up."

Concubine Li stood up, her charming eyes flew towards the emperor, she said half wronged and half seductive: "Your Majesty, this concubine really knows her mistake."

The emperor hummed, without even looking at Concubine Li, he lowered his eyes and said indifferently: "It is an iron law that the harem must not interfere in politics, and it is also an iron law that the empress governs the harem. No matter who it is, don't try to challenge the majesty of the empress. You committed the first crime, and the Empress pleaded for you again, I will punish you lightly, and if you dare to meddle in other affairs in the future, you will live in the cold palace for the rest of your life."

Seeing that the emperor was so ruthless, Concubine Li was so frightened that she knelt down on the ground and even claimed that it was true. When the Empress saw that the fire was almost ready, she said calmly: "Okay, Your Majesty, don't blame Concubine Li, she is also young and ignorant, so she will be used by others." Concubine Li, you should think more about what you say and do in the future, don't let yourself be taken advantage of by others."

Concubine Li's heart trembled. She had never thought about it in this direction. Now that the queen said this, it seemed to open a window for her to think about the whole thing from a different angle. I realized that I was really being used.Seeing the repressed anger on Concubine Li's face, the emperor knew that the fire was almost over, so he said calmly: "Concubine Li kneel down." Concubine Li was waiting for these words, and hurriedly knelt down and exited Kunning Palace.As soon as she got out of Kunning Palace, Concubine Li's face twisted, and she shouted angrily: "Go, go to Fengzao Palace, I want to ask Jia Yuanchun, what is her plan?"

Concubine Li's court lady tried her best to hold her back and persuaded her: "Your Majesty, you must not go, Madam Jia is pregnant, who dares to offend her, I beg you to bear with your anger for a while, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years! "

Concubine Li was on fire, how could it be so easy to persuade her, she insisted on going to Fengzao Palace, the two maids knelt down and blocked the way, begging: "Madam, if you really want to go to Fengzao Palace, the servants will also go to Fengzao Palace." No, it’s not hard to stop, but the servants beg your mother not to go now, you go back to the palace and think it through before it’s not too late.”

Li Pin was annoyed: "Why?"

The maid said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, there is nothing wrong in the harem, think about it carefully, don't ruin yourself for a moment of anger, it's not worth it!"

Concubine Li gradually calmed down, and said with a long breath: "Okay, let's go back to the palace first, and we'll talk about it when we're done planning."

The two maids breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly carried Concubine Li back to Zhongxiu Palace.Concubine Li really planned carefully after returning to the palace, saying that nothing could make Jia Yuanchun feel better.Jia Yuanchun in Fengzao Palace didn't know that Concubine Li hated her to the core, and was planning to ask Jia's family to retire for Tanchun so that she could use Tanchun to climb another branch.

After eating too early, the emperor wrote an imperial decree to imprison all the people in the Rongguo Mansion in the Zongzheng Temple for the crime of hiding prohibited items, and ordered the crown prince to thoroughly search the entire Rongguo Mansion.As soon as this imperial decree was issued, the Rongguo Mansion cried loudly, and Jia's mother pouted on the spot. Mrs. Xing, Li Wanfeng, and others hurried forward to rescue Jia's mother.As soon as Jiamu woke up, she burst into tears: "Master, I am sorry for you..."

Mrs. Xing didn't dare to say anything, Li Wan hugged Jia Lan and cried, and Sister Feng persuaded while crying, "Old lady, take care of yourself..."

Mother Jia cried for a while, and gradually calmed down. She wiped the tears on her face with a handkerchief, and said softly: "Don't cry, it's useless to cry now that things have happened. Everyone cheer up, and you will go to jail. You can't lose the rules of the Duke's Mansion."

At the critical moment, Jiamu was the star of the Rongguo Mansion. With her words, everyone stopped crying and stood on the ground, looking at Jiamu anxiously, listening to what she had to say.

Shui Chi watched coldly from the side, and he couldn't help admiring that Jia's mother was really experienced, and she was different from others.

Mother Jia walked up to Shui Chi, bowed and said, "His Royal Highness, although there is a sacred intention, most of the women here are female relatives. Please make it easier for me, don't let the old man lose the last bit of face, please." Don't lock up the female relatives."

Shui Chi nodded and said: "Okay, the women's family members don't need to lock it."

Mother Jia bowed deeply to thank her, then straightened her body again and said, "Yuanyang, lead the military masters to fetch the account books since the opening of Rongguo Mansion." Yuanyang hurriedly agreed, and Shui Chi signaled several guards to follow Yuanyang.

Feng Ziying saw Jia Xichun standing behind with a cold expression, without a single tear on her face, and her eyes were as calm as an ancient well.He walked up to Shui Chi and whispered in a low voice: "Your Highness, Miss Jia Si is from Ningguo Mansion, she is so young, she definitely doesn't know anything, should you send her to Ningguo Mansion?"

Shui Chi looked at Feng Ziying in surprise, then nodded and said, "Go and do it."

Feng Ziying walked up to Xichun and said in a low voice: "The fourth girl is originally from the Ningguo Mansion and has nothing to do with the Rongguo Mansion. You can go back." Xichun looked up at Feng Ziying, her eyes filled with confusion. More to say, Jia's mother is the most eye-catching, and hurriedly said: "Master Feng is very right, fourth girl, go home quickly."

Feng Ziying beckoned to the two guards and said, "Good luck to send Miss Si back."

But Xichun shook her head and bowed down: "Thank you, Mr. Feng, for your kindness. Xichun doesn't want to go home, but asks for shelter in a nunnery."

Feng Ziying didn't expect Xichun to say that. He hurriedly helped Xichun up, but seeing the tears of pain in Xichun's eyes, Feng Ziying felt her heart tremble, and she felt unspeakable distress, so she nodded and said, "It's okay, let's send it off first." You go to Jingyue Nunnery for a while, so Miss Si can relax." Xichun raised her eyes to look at Feng Ziying, her eyes were full of bewilderment, she is still young, although she is smart, she can't understand some things.Feng Ziying called the sergeants to give some instructions, and the sergeants quickly found a green curtain oil truck, and the painted screen helped Xichun get on the car, and the three master and servant went to Jingyue nunnery.

Looking at the shadow of the car in the distance, Yingchun silently prayed in her heart, no matter what, if only one could leave, Tanchun's heart became alive, thinking that Xichun was a member of Ningguo Mansion, so she could leave, and she had also made an appointment Ordinarily, those who can leave, as long as they don't suffer from the prison, it's better than anything else.

Tan Chun was thinking about it when she suddenly heard Jia Mu say: "Your Highness, the third girl already has a family, does she..."

Shui Chi glanced at Jia Mu coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Ziying, take a group of criminals to Zongzheng Temple for trial." Jia Mu felt cold and dared not speak any more.Tanchun's tears welled up all at once, and the secretary supported her, but he didn't dare to persuade her.

Feng Ziying ordered several large carts to be driven over, and the female family members and maidservants of Jia's family were escorted into the carts and sent to Zongzheng Temple, while a group of men were chained and shackles, and they were escorted away staggeringly.

After checking, Feng Ziying stepped forward and said, "Go back to His Royal Highness, Ding Jialian, the son of Jia's mansion, is missing." Shui Chi said in a deep voice, "Go and find out where he is, and arrest him together." Feng Ziying ordered, Busy to deal with.

Shui Chi rode back to the Zongzheng Temple, when he passed by the Lin Mansion, his thoughts suddenly changed, and he told the guards: "You go back first, the king will be there in a while."

The Rongguo Mansion was seized, and the news spread throughout the capital like a thunderbolt. The Lin family got the news before Shui Chi had even reached the Lin Mansion.Daiyu couldn't help being startled when she heard the news, she couldn't tell what it was like in her heart.Huiyun hugged Daiyu softly for a while, and Daiyu was about to speak when Lin Yi came in and said, "Yu'er, His Royal Highness is afraid that you will feel bad, so he came to see you."
