[Qing Chuan] I became the queen mother after salted fish

Concubine Ying recuperated for a few days, and soon recovered, and also began to pay her respects to the queen. The two of them seemed to have nothing happened, and restored their superficial calm.

Si Ning observed for a while, and finally suppressed the thought in his heart, no matter what discord between the two people, just don't involve himself.

Greetings were over soon, Sining and the others left the Queen's courtyard, Sining and Concubine Xun went directly to the Changchun Immortal Hall, while Concubine Ying went one after the other to the courtyard next to the Queen went.

Si Ning stood there watching them for a while, then looked away.

Concubine Xun chatted up from the side: "Your Majesty, do you think there is something wrong with Concubine Ying?"

Si Ning nodded: "I always feel that her emotions are not right."

Concubine Xun smiled: "Who says no, she is getting more and more lonely now, and sometimes she looks terrified when she looks at people. Before, the empress was closer to her, but this time it happened Such a thing may not be possible in the future.”

Si Ning was stunned, and suddenly recalled that Concubine Ying had a good relationship with the Empress before, especially before and after Concubine Ying lost her daughter, the Empress took care of her for a long time, at that time she was able to come out of the grief, there was also an element of consolation from the Empress.

But why is it suddenly like this now?

Si Ning didn't want to understand, but in the end it was none of her business, so Si Ning stopped thinking about it, turned around and went to the Changchun Immortal Hall with his concubine Xun.

……

Concubine Ying went back to her yard, ignored Mrs. Chun who was trying to chat with her behind her, and went directly to her room.

Mrs. Chun was a little embarrassed standing where she was, but thinking about Yingbi's character, she didn't dare to say anything, and went back to her room.

As soon as Concubine Ying came back, she leaned on the couch, staring at the window blankly, she seemed not energetic.

Chun Xi, who was serving in front of her, approached cautiously, and said in a low voice: "Master, the ginseng tea is still hot on the stove, do you want a bowl?"

Yingpin's eyes moved, and finally nodded: "Bring it up."

Chunxi immediately went down and poured a bowl of ginseng tea and brought it up, Concubine Ying took it and took a sip.

Chunxi smiled and said, "I got this ginseng years ago, and the medicine is the most effective. Now you are sick and have lost your vitality, and you need to replenish your energy."

Yingpin stopped drinking ginseng tea, she threw the tea bowl on the table suddenly, and said coldly, "But the ginseng sent by the queen?"

Chunxi was at a loss for a moment, bit her lip, and whispered, "It's the one sent by the Empress..."

Yingpin's face became more and more ugly: "How many times have I told you that the things sent by the queen should be kept properly and not used. Do you take my words as a deaf ear?"

Chunxi was so anxious that she was about to cry: "I don't dare, but we only have this ginseng left in our hands. If we don't use it, how can we make up for you?"

Yingpin's face flushed with anger: "Even if I die of illness, I don't need her things!"

Chunxi was stunned for a moment.

The master has been weird all this time, no, it should have been weird since the first queen disappeared.

At the beginning, the queen was gone, and the master was happy for a while, but he was a little slack about competing for favor.

But after a period of time, she seemed to be ruthless again, and began to compete with these people, and her relationship with the current empress was getting worse and worse. Chunxi was a slave, she couldn't understand her master's thoughts, but she just felt a little baffled.

After Yingpin finished speaking, she seemed to know that something was wrong. After a long time, she finally suppressed the indignation in her heart, and said lightly: "Put the ginseng tea down, I can get well without drinking it."

These words are cold and have no temperature.

Chunxi felt a little apprehensive, and never dared to go against Concubine Ying's wishes, and took the ginseng tea down.

After the people left, Concubine Ying raised her head, her eyes were full of disgust and disdain at this moment, she said that the queen, on the surface, was sanctimonious, but inside she was dirtier than anything else.

……

When Sining returned to the Changchun Immortal Hall, Wu Linzhu was sitting under the plane tree in the courtyard doing needlework with the little Niu Hulu family. Seeing Sining's return, they both stood up to greet her.

Si Ning was a little surprised to see little Niu Hulu come in, and raised his hand to let them all sit down.

But Xiao Niu Hulu still saluted Si Ning and said with a smile: "My son greets Er Niang."

Si Ning smiled, during this period of time, Xiao Niu Hulu's mood is getting better and better day by day, it seems that the relationship between her and Mian Yi should also be much better, what he said that day still has an effect .

"Why do you have the time to come here today?" Si Ning asked with a smile.

As a result, Xiao Niu Hulu's face turned red when he heard this.

Wu Linzhu smiled and said, "I'm going to congratulate Emiang, she's going to be a grandmother soon!"

Si Ning looked at Niu Hulu in shock, she nodded with a blushing face, and said in a low voice, "Just as I was about to report back to Er Niang, Erchen felt a little uncomfortable before, so I invited the imperial doctor to come over to check the pulse, but it didn't work out." , it turned out to be Ximai." She became more and more embarrassed.

Si Ning's face is full of joy, this is a good thing, she can see that the little Niu Hulu family has been suffering a lot due to the matter of their children, and now there is finally news that this child can also be relieved up.

And her Mian Yi is going to be a father too, Si Ning is also happy.

"You can send someone to talk about this matter, why come here yourself." Si Ning hurriedly pulled Niu Hulu to sit down, and asked her to refill the warm water and replace the previous tea.

"If you are pregnant, you should drink less tea. You are still young. After I report back to the queen, I will send you a nanny to take care of your diet."

Little Niu Hulu was taken aback, stroked his stomach worriedly, and said softly, "Your minister is being reckless."

Si Ning smiled and shook his head: "I don't blame you, just remember it in the future."

Wu Linzhu also responded with a smile: "Don't blame sister-in-law, but blame me. I don't understand these things, so I served tea for sister-in-law."

The two talked in a few words, which moved Xiao Niu Hulu's heart very much. Everyone said that it was difficult to be a daughter-in-law of the Tian family, but she never expected that she would meet such a reasonable mother-in-law.

Several people entered the room affectionately, and Si Ning carefully asked about the status of the pulse diagnosis. Hearing that the fetus appeared to be stable, Si Ning also breathed a sigh of relief.

Little Niu Hulu is not a strong person, so he still has to make up for it in the future, otherwise there will be problems in giving birth in the future.

"Have you told Mian Yi the news?" Si Ning finished asking the fetal image and asked again.

Little Niu Hulu nodded: "I sent someone to tell the big brother, but the big brother is busy, so I don't know if the news has reached."

Si Ning smiled: "If he hears the news, I don't know how happy he is, you just stay here Ansheng, maybe he will come over in a while."

Little Niu Hulu smiled a little embarrassedly, but there was also a trace of expectation in his eyes.

……

In the end, things were exactly as Si Ning said, before it was time for lunch, Mian Yi rushed over.

He seemed to be trotting all the way here, sweat was all over his face, but his eyes were full of joy.

As soon as he entered the door, his eyes were glued to little Niu Hulu's body, with a trace of anticipation and a trace of apprehension.

The little Niu Hulu was a little embarrassed by him, and he didn't dare to lift his head.

Si Ning smiled and relieved little Niu Hulu: "Okay, okay, don't look, sit down quickly, your daughter-in-law really has a happy news, and you are going to be a father too!"

When Mian Yi heard this, her face flushed red, and her speech was a little sluggish: "Is it true? This is really great!"

Si Ning couldn't help laughing, this silly boy.

But I can't blame him. The couple have waited too long for this birth. They have been married for four or five years, but there is no news at all, and neither is anyone else in the house. .

Now that little Niu Hulu was finally pregnant, not only was little Niu Hulu relieved, but the pressure on Mian Yi was also relieved.

He was so happy that he was almost at a loss. He watched people setting out the meal and asked if this food could be eaten by pregnant women.

She only looked at Si Ning as very funny, and told him that the food was specially prepared by the dining room according to the instructions of the Tai Hospital, and then Mian Yi sat down peacefully, showing a trace of unusual embarrassment on her face.

Si Ning didn't want to embarrass his son even more, so he stopped dwelling on this topic and talked about other things.

One is that the young couple are very young and have little experience in childbirth, so they still need to find an experienced nanny to take care of them.

Mian Yi agreed with this very much, and immediately nodded in response.

However, Si Ning still reminded him that although the candidates here are selected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there are too many maneuverability, he must be more cautious, and it is best to choose by himself, Mian Yi solemnly agreed However, the little Niu Hulu seemed a little uneasy.

Si Ning comforted her a few words, but didn't discuss this point in depth, after all, it's not good for pregnant women to worry too much.

After the meal, Sining sent the couple back home, and specially asked Qing Jin to call a sedan chair for Niu Hulu's transportation, so as not to tire her.

After sending the couple away, Si Ning thought about it and decided to tell the Queen the news in the afternoon. The Queen is also the aunt after all, so she must not hide it.

After the lunch break, Si Ning went to the Queen's Palace, when she went, the Queen was talking with Mrs. Chun and An Chang.

During this period of time, An Changzai often went to the Queen's Palace, and her status in the palace was not as unknown as before, and the nobles did not dare to bully her anymore.

Seeing Si Ning coming, both of them stood up and saluted, while Si Ning saluted the Queen.

The queen looked a little surprised, and let Si Ning sit down without courtesy.

Only then did Si Ning tell the empress about Da Fujin's pregnancy, the empress was taken aback when she heard that, then immediately smiled and congratulated, while talking, she wanted to give Xiao Niu Hulu a reward.

The queen is generous, and the rewards are very good, Si Ning thanked the queen for the reward on behalf of the couple, and told about inviting a nanny, the queen agreed, and let Si Ning choose by herself.

Si Ning understood that the queen was afraid of being involved in something, so she avoided suspicion, so she didn't be polite to her, and responded directly.

After finishing talking about this matter, Si Ning left, while An Changzai and Chun Guiren still stayed in front of the queen to talk.

……

Afterwards, things were easy to deal with. After Si Ning rewarded the Queen, she also rewarded Xiao Niu Hulu, and then explained the matter of picking the nanny. This matter is considered to be completely settled.

For a while, everyone in the palace knew that Da Fujin was pregnant.

The people serving in the Changchun Immortal Hall were overjoyed, even concubine Xun came to Sining to congratulate her once.

Si Ning smiled and received the people who came to congratulate her, and gave red envelopes to all the servants below, so it can be regarded as a happy event.

In the evening, when Jiaqing came to Sining, he also got the news and rewarded Mianyi and his wife greatly, and now that he came to Sining, his face was full of joy.

"I was worried about Mianyi's offspring before, but I didn't expect to have an heir so soon. As you said, the fate has come." Jiaqing said happily as he walked around the room.

Si Ning echoed with a smile: "Who is not, after all, it is the blessing of the emperor."

Jiaqing smiled and touched his forehead: "This is Mianyi's first child, it must be taken seriously. Are you taking care of it properly?"

Si Ning nodded, and told Jiaqing about his invitation to a nanny.

Jiaqing agreed very much, and with a big wave of his hand, he decided to send two to the little Niu Hulu clan: "If there is one, it is a bit short of manpower. Let's send two. Be careful."

Naturally, Si Ning would not disagree and agreed with a smile.

……

After a few days, the two nuns were bestowed by Jiaqing himself, and everyone knew how much the emperor attached to elder brother.

For a moment, the eyes of all the people in the palace were on Mianyi and his wife. As the biological mother, Sining was naturally valued by others, and all the concubines in the palace moved more and more to Sining.

Rong Changzai, who entered the palace with Mrs. Chun before, has been unknown since she was not favored by Mrs. Chun, but these days, she often comes to Sining Palace to pay her respects. Sining is not very familiar with her. She was a little frivolous in her conversation, so I never saw her again, but this Rong Chang was innumerable, and she always came over.

Si Ning couldn't bear to be disturbed by it, and then told her not to even enter the door, so she stopped coming.

But after this incident, she went to the queen again. The queen never refused to come, and she was very patient with Rong Changzai. she enters.

For a while, everyone admired the queen's generosity.

Although no one dared to say small things about Si Ning, such a comparison made people look sideways, and many people wanted to see how Concubine Liu Gui would respond.

And Si Ning's response is not to respond, she lives her life as usual, not at all uncomfortable, in her opinion, these opinions of outsiders have no influence on her at all, and she doesn't care at all, she is in this palace. However, there is actually only one person who needs to please, and that is Jiaqing.

As for other people, as long as they don't affect her life, they are nothing to worry about, and she doesn't care what they think.

……

Getting up early this day, Si Ning went to the Queen's Palace to greet her. By the time she passed, almost everyone had already arrived. Si Ning sat down in her own seat, ignoring other people's gazes.

The atmosphere in the room was a little tense, and Si Ning just pretended not to notice it, and said nothing.

Concubine Xun swept around the people in the room, smiled and said to Rong Changzai who was sitting at the end: "Didn't you always go to the Changchun Immortal Hall in the past few days? Ginseng Yulu, why haven’t you been here for a few days? But you think I’m too small to tolerate this true Buddha?”

Rong Chang was a little nervous for a while, he looked at Si Ning carefully, seeing her still calm, as if nothing happened, Rong Chang felt a little guilty in his heart.

After a long time, he said: "The concubine dare not, it's just that the concubine has been serving in front of the empress for the past few days, so I can't go to the concubine's concubine to pay her respects, and ask her to forgive me."

Seeing that she brought the queen out to suppress her, Concubine Xun was a little annoyed, and wanted to say something, but Si Ning stopped her in time: "The tea in the empress's palace is mellow, Concubine Xun, please taste it."

Concubine Xun suddenly stopped talking, after all, she thought that she was in the Queen's Palace now, so she couldn't be too presumptuous.

So she just smiled, picked up the tea bowl on the table, glanced at Rong Changzai coldly, and said lightly: "What the empress said is, the concubine should taste the tea from the empress, so that it is easy to drink. Once I got the empress's blessing, but I think that Lai Rongchang will serve in front of the empress's every day, the blessings I'm tainted with are probably incalculable."

Si Ning smiled lightly, but said nothing.

Rong Changzai bit his lip, knowing that she was mocking him, but thinking about his situation, he didn't dare to say much.

At this moment, the queen finally came out of the room. She looked at her just after washing, and when she came out, she was still stroking her temples.

Si Ning and the others hurriedly got up to salute the queen, the queen sat down on the seat, and then raised her hand: "Okay, let's all sit down."

Everyone just sat down.

The queen glanced at Si Ning and Concubine Xun, then at Rong Changzai, and said with a smile: "I just heard that it's so lively outside, what are you talking about?"

Before Rong Changzai could speak, Concubine Xun spoke first: "It is said that the empress has a lot of blessings, and even this tea tastes sweet."

The queen couldn't help smiling: "Since you think it's sweet, then take a bag back. It's not worth anything, but as the emperor's concubine, you should be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't bicker."

Concubine Xun's complexion did not change, she got up and responded.

Rong Changzai bit his lip, not knowing what it was like.

After only two or three words, the empress sent them all away, and when they were out of the world, Si Ning looked at Concubine Xun and sighed: "Why are you doing this? After all, you are in the empress's palace."

Concubine Xun gritted her teeth: "I just can't understand her pug-like appearance, wagging her tail in front of you and begging for mercy. You ignored her, but she was too embarrassed to continue to come closer. It was obvious that she wanted to benefit from you, but now Instead, it became your fault."

Si Ning chuckled lightly: "Rong Changzai has a thick skin, but she can't cause such a thing alone. If the queen wants to have a good reputation, she must look like a mother. That's why Rong Changzai can be the queen As for those rumors, you know that they are very popular. I am in this position now, and naturally someone will keep an eye on me, and even gossip about me in private. , why bother to bother, if you have to pay attention to everything, then you won't have to live in the future."

Hearing this, Concubine Xun sighed, she actually understood that what Si Ning said was right.

"What you said is that I was impulsive."

Si Ning smiled: "You are fighting for me, how can I blame you, Rong Changzai is just a scabies disease, not a figure on the stage, now the empress uses him to build a good reputation, but sooner or later she will abandon her At that time, her situation may be ten thousand times worse than now, you just wait."

When Concubine Xun heard this, her eyes lit up, and she nodded with a smile.

……

When Sining returned to the Changchun Immortal Pavilion, Wu Linzhu was doing needlework in the house, when she heard Sining came back, she greeted her with a smile.

Si Ning took her daughter's hand with some distress, and said softly: "I didn't tell you, those sewing and sewing are done by people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so why do you need to do it?"

The marriage between Wu Linzhu and Sotnam Duobuji had already been decided, and Jiaqing personally decreed the marriage. At the same time, the fourth princess and Horqin Belmani Badala also gave the marriage.

Since the marriage was finalized, the Ministry of Internal Affairs began to prepare the wedding ceremony and dowry for the two princesses.

After Wu Linzhu heard the news, she also started to do some needlework by herself, which is considered a tradition, but Si Ning felt sorry for her daughter and didn't want Wu Linzhu to do more, but Wu Linzhu felt that the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not suit her. mind, so I insisted on doing it myself.

Hearing what Er Niang said now, Wu Linzhu smiled: "Don't worry, Er Niang, that is, at the beginning, I moved a few needles and threads, and now Erchen just chooses a few tricks by himself, and the rest are the bottom few. A slave is doing it, not tired."

Si Ning nodded, thinking it was okay.

The mother and daughter entered the room, and Wu Linzhu took out some fancy patterns for Sining to choose. Sining looked through a few and picked out the ones that she thought looked good. A few patterns really stood out, so people took them out and embroidered them.

She smiled and said to Si Ning: "Er Niang has a better vision."

Si Ning shook her head, and touched her daughter's face distressedly, now she is also a girl in her [-]th or [-]th year, she is slim and smiling, she has finally grown up so much, and she is about to get married, Si Ning feels so sad, If possible, she also wanted Wu Linzhu to stay by her side forever.

I just hope that after she gets married, everything goes well.

……

In September, the group of them went to Mulan again. This time when they came back to Mulan, Jiaqing, as the emperor, could be regarded as the real master of the family, so this time the Mongolian princes came very well.

Wu Linzhu and the future son-in-law of the fourth princess also came. Jiaqing called them out one by one to inspect them. Seeing that they were proficient in bow and horse, he was very happy and rewarded them with many things.

As a brother-in-law, Mian Yi naturally got in touch with her future brother-in-law, and when she came back, she told Si Ning that Sotnam Dobuji was an honest person, and she acted prudently, which made Si Ning feel at ease.

On the other hand, Wu Linzhu's face turned red when she heard this, and she looked quite embarrassed. Sining smiled and hugged her daughter in her arms, and told her many things about how to get along with her husband.

Wu Linzhu listened very carefully, and she knew in her heart that she would come out from under Er Niang's wings in the future, and how she would live her life in the future would depend on her own ability.

After waiting until the end of October, the group of them finally returned to the capital.

Next year will be the sixth year of Jiaqing, and it will be another draft year. As soon as we return to the capital, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will start preparing for the draft. The Queen will also have to worry about it, because Mian Chen will be fourteen years old next year. It's time to get married too.

Si Ning was speechless when she heard that, she was only thirteen years old, and she was about to get married.

Fortunately, Jiaqing quickly vetoed this proposal. He said that there is nothing outstanding in this year's showgirls, so let's wait until the next one.

Only then did Si Ning heave a sigh of relief, elementary school students get married, she really can't do it!

When the year passed, the new draft began again. As a noble concubine, Si Ning was also slipped out by the queen, and they watched together.

Si Ning was bored, only thinking about when it would end, but soon, one of the show girls stood out.
