Chapter 83 Two Lives

In a blink of an eye, I saw clusters of flowers, and the ladies in graceful clothes entered the yard from the main door. There were at least four eunuchs serving by each nobleman, standing in a row behind them, standing neatly in a row.

Qin Yunuan squatted down and saluted together with the ladies. Naturally, Queen Chen walked at the front, who was still dignified and kind. Yun Guifei had already seen it, and Xian Guiren had already heard about Wei Xian, the first beauty sent by Dongqin.

The other two are Duanfei. Since the death of the fourth prince Sima Han's biological mother, Duan Han's biological mother, as her direct sister, has been promoted from the concubine to the concubine position. She is responsible for taking care of Sima Han, who is a little stupid by nature. Duan Concubine's house is kind-hearted and has always been extremely protective of her shortcomings, and she has also a love for her own sister. To the extreme, even to the extent of doting, this has made Sima Han, who is only 18 years old, have seven or eight close maidservants around him. In the final analysis, that is, several bed companions selected by Duanfei for Sima Han.

And the jade concubine, just by looking at her slightly bulging lower abdomen and slightly fat body, she knows that there is another dragon heir in her belly. Today, the emperor's son is thin and has only four sons. Among them, the youngest son, the seventh prince, has been raised in the imperial mausoleum, looking at all kinds of cold and warm and submissive mother around the jade concubine. The maids know how much hope the emperor has for this little life in the jade concubine's belly.

The pregnant jade concubine's appetite has always been good. As soon as Fang sat down, he picked up the white soft cloud cake and chewed it up.

Qin Yunuan sat near the end of the banquet and could clearly see the expressions and behaviors of everyone at the banquet.

Looking at the greedy appearance of the jade concubine, Yun Guifei smiled: "It's really envy to see such a good appetite as the jade concubine's sister. I thought that when I was pregnant with a child, I didn't think about it all day long. I was afraid that something would happen to the child, which would make the emperor also be worried. Every time I went down in the morning, I would send people to ask if How much have you eaten?

In the final analysis, Yun Guifei is still showing off.

The jade concubine shrank her hand with embarrassment, but Empress Chen smiled and relieved the siege: "The noble concubine is born in a famous family, and her body is naturally very expensive. Even if she is not pregnant, does the emperor still take care of you?"

Yun Guifei became more and more proud: "I don't know. It's really different from being pregnant and not pregnant." Suddenly, she covered her handkerchief and made a look like she said something wrong. "Oh, I forgot that my sister has never been pregnant with a child. Alas, I really shouldn't have been. I always poked my sister's sadness."

What an obvious show-off, Qin Yunuan took a sip of fruit wine. She knew that a person like Yun Guifei was actually the most thankless in the palace. Fortunately, she and the emperor's continuous favors. If one day she is broken, or the Meng family army loses power, her good days will come to an end.

Several princes were already sitting at the next. Queen Chen was obviously unhappy when she heard the secret sarcasm of Concubine Yun, but only for a moment, she smiled very gently. She looked at Sima Rui sitting at the lower table and said with a smile, "Although heaven failed to give me a child of my palace, it brought it to me. I am very satisfied with such a sensible and promising son as Rui'er.

Sima Rui smiled shallowly and looked like a mother and son filial to Empress Chen. He even echoed: "It is also a blessing for my son to have a mother who is so kind and regards her son as her own mother."

Sima Ruo, the eldest prince beside him, seemed to be very used to such a play. He raised his hand and put a white jade-like chicken claw into Yun's bowl, bowed his head and said lightly, "Mother, your favorite food."

Yun Guifei took a proud look at Empress Chen, and let the maid next to her pick out the bones of the phoenix claws and the unstoppable tendons, and then slowly took a small bite.

This is the first time Qin Yunuan has seen this legendary eldest prince Sima Ruo. Previously, Qin has been accompanying Sima Ruonan. After returning, he mentioned that the emperor's eldest son is also a good word from time to time, saying that he is filial and honest, and he has the decisiveness and calmness that politicians should have. Although it is not from the queen, his mother is quite favored. He is also the eldest son of the emperor, who is very powerful in competing for the crown prince.

But Sima Ruo, whom Qin Yunuan saw today, is so elegant that he wants to enter the painting. His eyes are as clear as the clear water in the ice pool on the top of Tianshan Mountain.

said that he was a politician, but what oozed out of his bones was vast lightness and boundless dispersion. Except for the delicate eyebrows that were very similar to Yun Guifei, he did not seem to have any signs of struggle.

I remember that Leng Changxi once mentioned him. He helped Leng Changxi. Even if Sima Ruo's brother-in-law Menghua Leng Changxi's current relationship is so subtle that the weight of a hair will lead to earth-shaking changes.

Qin Yunuan was slightly stunned, thinking about why most of the people she is concerned about now are related to Leng Changxi. She seems to be subconscious and not within her control at all.

Noble Concubine Yun and Empress Chen rested for a while, but the concubine Duan on the other side was busy. Sima Han, the 18-year-old fourth prince, was like an eight-year-old child, shouting, poking his mouth and frowning. If it hadn't been for the seven-foot body and handsome face, it would have looked like The appearance of a wise child.

"I want to eat field snails. Why don't I have field snails? My mother, I want to eat them." Sima Han pulled the sleeves of Duan Han like a child. The best silk material was wrinkled in Sima Han's hand. Duan Concubine seemed a little embarrassed. In addition, today's poetry meeting was originally for several princes to choose the imperial concubine in advance. Sima Han's appearance undoubtedly gave her two times. Palm.

Yu Bin looked a little embarrassed after listening to Sima Han's noise. While coaxing Sima Han to sit down, Duanfei comforted, "Okay, when we go back, the mother will ask someone to go to Poyang Lake to buy you the freshest snails, okay? Each one is the largest and the most delicious.

Sima Han was anxious, stood up straight and strode towards the jade concubine. The embroidered robe was shaken and swaying, just blocking Qin Yunuan's sight.

"Stop him, why don't you stop him quickly? What's wrong with him if you hit him?" Duanfei hurriedly ordered.

In this case, Duan Concubine did not worry about the pregnant jade concubine, but worried about a big man Sima Han. She really spoiled this eldest sister's son very much. Everyone thought so, but Qin Yu Nuannuan did not think so.

Sure enough, the thick-footed Sima Han was about to reach out directly to grab the field snails in the jade concubine's tray. He shook the sleeve robe, but directly threw the whole tray to the ground, and the field snail meat wrapped in thick soup and peppers turned to the ground, and the hot soup flowed to the ground.

Sima Han's wrist was so hot that he retreated with the hot soup, and he happened to fall on Qin Yunuan's bench.

"Fourth Highness." Qin Yunuan quickly got up and held Sima Han, and then stabilized her, but she heard the maids of honor around the jade concubine shouting.

"It's over, the Empress is red!"

Qin Yunuan subconsciously went to see Sima Han. Just now, he was the closest person to Yu's concubine, but Sima Han, who suddenly attracted everyone's attention, still looked naive and covered his red wrist and muttered, "Oh, your hands are red." It seems that the noise on the opposite side has nothing to do with him.

"Fourth Highness." Qin Yunuan couldn't help shouting. Perhaps Sima Han and Qin Yuzhao have been despised and neglected by everyone because they were stupid since childhood. Qin Yunuan has still had some feelings for Qin Yuzhao, a stupid sister, more or less since these two generations. At this time, there was a trace of violence in her eyes thrown by Duan Concubine Duan. , I couldn't help but want to remind Sima Han.

Alas, what is she thinking about? Sima Han is a fool, just like for Qin Yuzhao, even if she tells her that the people who gave her rotten leaves are teasing her, the next time she meets her, she will not hesitate to eat it.

The jade concubine has been in a mess. The fetus was originally raised very stable, but I didn't expect it to suddenly turn red. The jade concubine fell on the seat and was already sweaty. She covered her bulging abdomen and couldn't help shouting "pain". The matries and maids around her were also experienced, so she immediately invited the imperial doctor.

Empress Chen arranged various matters unsurprisingly. First, she sent the jade concubine to the nearest Yongshou Palace, and then asked the palace people to invite the girls of Yingyan to the side hall of Yongshou Palace to rest, while Duanfei hurriedly called Sima Han.

The noble concubine Yun smiled and waited honestly in the palace with Sima Ruo.

Qin Yunuan leaned against the window lattice of the side hall, and it seemed that he could still hear the hysterical shouts of the jade concubine, just like the cry from the most sad ghost in the night, with painful forbearance.

In and out are all the imperial doctors and maids carrying hot water. In less than a ray of incense, the emperor Zhaoxuan Emperor Sima Xiu, who had just got off the morning, also came. He still had time to take off his imperial uniform, and there was still a mark left by the crown on his head, and he strode into the gate of the Yongshou Palace.

"Where's the jade concubine?" Sima Xiu asked.

Queen Chen hurriedly came forward, and Ma Xiu, the tea master on the servant's hand, had no intention to drink it. Listening to the shouts of falling inside, her eyebrows were tightly twisted, and her heart was even higher.

"Your Majesty," Queen Chen tried to say in the most acceptable tone, "I'm afraid the child in my sister's belly can't be preserved."

The words fell, and the mother who assisted the imperial doctor in the diagnosis and treatment suddenly ran out in a sweat. Seeing that Sima Xiu was also there, she knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, the Empress has shed a lot of blood, and she has been shouting that if the child can't be preserved, she will not live."

The bad news came one after another. The palace people ran around. The ladies in Beijing who had been obediently in the side hall were a little uncomfortable. From a distance, they saw the fat mother beside the queen coming. They all rushed up to ask about the situation. Unexpectedly, the fat mother opened her face coldly. Everyone said, "Are the three girls of the Qin family there? The Queen is invited.
