[Qing Chuan] No pet little promise

Wei Rong upholds the basic morality of not doing anything to pregnant women, but today's incident, she is really panicking if she is not allowed to breathe a sigh of relief.She didn't stifle herself and fulfill the greatness of others.

In his arms is a simple doll made of white cloth, with the colors and feathers of birds painted with a pen.

Things that pretend to be gods and ghosts don't have to be so delicate.

After going to the main hall, Wei Rong found the outside of Xi Concubine's bedroom with ease.

Calculating the distance from my own house to here, I remembered what Xi Concubine said in the daytime, what cries from Green Valley made her fall asleep, it was completely nonsense, so far away, unless I shouted hoarsely, it was impossible to hear the birdsong clearly .

But Wei Rong also discovered that, for some reason, Xi Concubine hated birds very much.The concubines like to keep some birds with bright fur and beautiful singing in the porch to amuse them. There are many hanging in the porch of the concubine De, but there has never been one here.I even heard from the little palace maid that Mrs. Li Jia raised a few cats in the early years, but Xi concubine made excuses to kill them all.

When passing by Caiwen's room, Wei Rong casually sprinkled a handful of preserved beef into her teacup through the open window.Since everyone in the Changchun Palace must be a vegetarian, let you eat more tonics.

Arriving outside Xi Concubine's room, she took out the whistle and was about to rectify a ghost show when she suddenly heard the sound of footsteps coming from the corridor.

She had to dodge and hide behind the big tree.

Two figures came out one after the other, the one in front was Nanny Zhou, and the one behind was a middle-aged man with long beard.

Apart from the eunuchs and guards, the only men in the palace who can move freely are the imperial physicians.

This man couldn't be the first two at first glance, but it seemed strange that the imperial physician was walking around at this hour.

Nanny Zhou sighed: "Doctor Cai, is there any hidden worry about the things my mother took in the early years?"

Imperial Physician Cai stroked his beard with a gloomy expression, "My Lady's palace cold problem is due to overuse of medication in her early years, but after all, she has stopped taking it for many years. Compared to this, it is the hidden danger of Immortal Water..."

The two talked for a long time.

Wei Rong hid under the tree and pricked up her ears, the more she listened, the more shocked she became.

Concubine Xi actually has such a secret...

***

In the early morning of the next day, Wei Rong went to the main hall to greet her.

After waiting for more than half an hour, Xi Concubine was nowhere to be seen. Finally, Nanny Zhou came out with a straight face, "Your Majesty is not feeling well. Today, all the masters are gone."

Liu promised to actively show his loyalty, and asked with concern: "I don't know how the empress is doing? I am ashamed to be idle in the palace all day. Why don't you come here to serve the sick."

Nanny Zhou gave her a blank look, "Your Majesty just didn't sleep well yesterday. If there is something wrong, promise not to talk nonsense."

Liu promised to laugh embarrassingly, but didn't dare to say anything.

Nanny Zhou was full of disdain, and looked at who didn't know that she was so petty, but she was just thinking that Xi concubine was not in good health, and the emperor would definitely come to visit.Serving by the side can also be dipped in light.

She simply knocked directly, "Since she was pregnant, she slept lightly, and she fell asleep after being disturbed for half the night yesterday. If the masters are considerate of your mother, they should rest in the room and don't cause trouble."

Liu promised hastily said: "I will wait for myself. I just don't know what disturbed my mother. Could it be that there are some short-sighted birds screaming and making noise."

Speaking of this matter, Nanny Zhou also felt puzzled. Concubine Xi said with certainty last night that she heard birdsong outside the window in the middle of the night, but there were absolutely no birds in the Changchun Palace.

The last one was also cleaned up by them yesterday.Nanny Zhou glanced at Wei Rong beside her.

Wei Rong had a submissive face, and said with a smile: "Why don't I copy a few volumes of scriptures for my mother, so that I can protect my little brother's health and success."

Mother Zhou benefited from her heart, nodded and said: "Wei Changzai is the word of loyalty."

Then Wei Rong took Chen Ying and Liu Ying to stand up respectfully and leave.

Out of the main hall, Liu Xu held the handkerchief, looked at the red spots on Wei Rong's face that were still bright, and said with a smile: "Chang Zai is really considerate."

Wei Rong smiled, "Liu promised to be polite."

She could see that Liu promised to be careful.After all, Xi Concubine was pregnant and couldn't stay in bed.It stands to reason that at this time, one or two "house maids" should be promoted to share the worries of the mistress.

Unfortunately, she was doomed to waste her time.Wei Rong figured out that with Concubine Xi's affection for Kangxi, she would not support him to the top until the end of the world.

***

Inside the sleeping hall.

Sitting in front of the dressing table, Xi Concubine had thick bruises under her eyes, especially on her fair face.

I didn't sleep well last night, obviously there wasn't a single bird around here.But in his sleep, he still heard a strange sound, shrill and sharp, not like ordinary birdsong.

Feeling irritable, the female officer came in and reported that the eldest palace maid Caiwen did not obey the rules and secretly hid meat while she was a vegetarian, Xi Concubine was even more displeased.

"Twenty palms! What kind of gluttonous character? I can't stand not eating meat for a day."

The lady officer took orders and went.

Wan Yue, who was in charge of combing her hair, said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't be angry about such a trivial matter. It's normal for these little girls to be greedy." All are excellent.

Nanny Zhou frowned and said, "Caiwen is not that unsteady. I'm afraid someone will frame this matter. Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to investigate."

"Oh, Mammy is really too careful. This little matter requires a lot of attention from your mother." Wan Yue said while her long black hair fluttered up and down in her hands, and soon turned into a delicate bun.

Nanny Zhou still wanted to speak, but seeing Xi Concubine's complexion, she held back, and just frowned and gave Wan Yue a look.

This Wan Yue, since she came to the Changchun Palace a few months ago, because of her good makeup, she has quickly gained the trust of Xi Concubine.Now speaking in front of Xi Concubine is more effective than her.

Xi Consort looked at her face in the mirror, and what really upset her was not only the dark blue under her eyes, but also the faint yellow spots on her cheeks.

She stretched out her hand to the fairy water next to her.

Nanny Zhou hurriedly said: "Mother, you are pregnant now, so it's not good to use these things anymore."

"I know it." Xi Concubine said impatiently.

Nanny Zhou could only watch as she took a little and smeared it on her face.

Concubine Xi was really troubled, although she was pleasantly surprised by the pregnancy, the discomfort that followed was enough to make people anxious, especially the macula on her face, which the imperial doctor said would only appear in the late stages of pregnancy, but she appeared early.

"I'm afraid it's because your mother's birth is delicate, so it's more grand." Wan Yue complimented.

***

After two days of being a vegetarian, Wei Rong couldn't take it anymore.

At night, I really wanted to have meat, but I finally thought of the dark cloud of Yinti hanging over my head, so I didn't dare to use my golden fingers.

In fact, it was a bit risky to take revenge on Concubine Xi the night before. Although I learned a little secret by accident, it didn't seem to be of any use.

When eating in the evening that day, Yulian came back with a regular dinner for a court lady, and chatted with Yufu outside.

"Do you know why Empress Xi didn't ask the masters to greet her for two days?"

"Didn't it mean she couldn't sleep well?"

"I heard Xiao Luzi, who was serving in the garden at the back, say that Empress Xi has been hearing birds chirping in the past few nights. The sound is so shrill that it disturbed her from falling asleep."

Yufu curled his lips, "Is there another bird in Changchun Palace?"

"So I've found the back of the palace gate. I heard that the Ministry of Internal Affairs has been ordered to set up bird nets today. I'm afraid the birds in the vicinity will suffer."

Yufu couldn't understand, "It's summer, and the cicadas' chirping is much louder than the birds' chirping, so why did they only target the birds?"

Yulian looked around to see that there was no one around, and lowered her voice: "I think, maybe Cuigu is really calling, and it died too unjustly."

"Don't play it wrong! Can you say such things?" Yu Fu spat.

Yulian stopped embarrassingly, but still added stubbornly, "That bird has some aura."

In the next few days, Concubine Xi ordered people to clean up all the trees and bird nests around Changchun Palace, and set up a lot of bird nets, and sent eunuchs to patrol around during the day.

Wei Rong didn't expect that she would cause so many incidents just by imitating two bird calls outside her window, and she became more and more determined to leave Changchun Palace.

***

In the blink of an eye, it is August, and the weather is getting hotter. The sporadic rain that fell in July has completely disappeared. The sun is scorching hot every day, and the ground is covered with white flowers.

Kangxi couldn't stand it anymore, and decided to go to the palace to escape the summer heat while there was no major event in the court.

In the early morning of this day, the carriages and horses were well prepared, and they took the harem concubines and the princes and elder brothers, under the escort of three thousand soldiers, out of the Forbidden City, all the way west, to the Summer Palace.

Concubine Xi was pregnant and not in good health, Song Qing'er was still under confinement, Chen Ying and Liu Ying did not come for some reason.

So, in the entire Changchun Palace, only Wei Rong, a little Chang, went to the Summer Palace with the main force.

***

It was already dusk when we arrived at the palace, and Wei Rong was assigned to live in the apse of Mingde Palace.

The environment is quiet and clean, and the house is spacious and bright, which made her extremely satisfied.

Even Yufu and Yulian tidied up the house with great enthusiasm.

"It's all because of the concubine De's honor." Yufu put the clothes he brought into the cupboard for Wei Rong, and said with a smile.

The main hall of Mingde Palace is naturally the Concubine De.In the east side hall lived Migui, and in the west side hall were two elders.

Probably Wei Rong has gotten too close to the Yonghe Palace recently, and Concubine De often rewards the concubines in the palace with her.This is how the Ministry of Internal Affairs arranged.

Wei Rong was not dissatisfied with this arrangement, especially when he opened the window, he could see the mighty Pingbo Lake, which was cool and refreshing, exquisite and pleasant.

The days in the palace were leisurely and comfortable. When Concubine De summoned him, Wei Rong expressed his willingness to serve in good time.

The atmosphere is harmonious and harmonious.

After leaving the solemn palace, everyone in the harem relaxed, and the empress and empress no longer strictly restrained the people in the palace, and the young concubines were as happy as birds coming out of their cages.In this deep palace that lacks entertainment, coming to the summer palace is a rare leisure vacation, especially when Kangxi is busy with government affairs, he has not moved to the summer palace for two years.

After lunch that day, Xu Guiren from Concubine Hui's Palace took the lead, and the House of Internal Affairs prepared two large boats to visit Mingyue Lake.
