Chapter 6 The emperor who is not in love (6)
"How are you, are you pregnant?" Concubine Liu was the first to ask when Doctor Wang checked her pulse.
If Jiang Guiren is also pregnant, then this harem is not hers alone.
Doctor Wang pondered for a while, "Your Majesty, you just have discomfort in your spleen and stomach, not that you are unhappy."
"It turns out it's not the case." Concubine Liu breathed a sigh of relief, okay, okay.
The queen's face was calm, "Since you are not unhappy, then go and kneel outside."
"It's a good show. Fortunately, Dr. Wang is here." Concubine Liu said contemptuously.
Jiang Yun bowed slightly, turned around and went outside. She saw the emperor striding towards this side and was immediately ready to salute.
Everyone else bowed and saluted. Xiao Youyuan supported Jiang Yun and asked in a warm voice: "But I am not feeling well. What does the imperial doctor say?"
"Your Majesty, Mr. Jiang just has a spleen and stomach discomfort." The queen immediately stood up and said, "It's not that it's a shame, but it's that the emperor's run has been in vain."
After saying that, he buried Jiang Yun, as if he thought she was too busy.
Jiang Yun's eyes were red, she lowered her head and said nothing. She just held on to the emperor's dragon robe tightly, her fingertips turning white.
It is obvious that he has suffered a lot of grievances, but he still cannot express them.
Xiao Youyuan's anger grew in his heart, and he said with a sullen face, "Jiang Guiren is not feeling well, and the queen doesn't care about her, but she still has to punish her? That's how you become the queen!"
With a scolding, the queen knelt back again, and the other concubines also knelt and did not dare to move.
"I can't tell the importance. The queen should kneel down and reflect." The emperor glanced at them, hugged Jiang Yun and left.
When Hua Luo Palace realized that the person in his arms was still aggrieved, Xiao Youyuan kept holding her and coaxing her.
"Don't be afraid, I will always protect you."
"Isn't the Emperor angry that my concubine is not pregnant?" She looked at him with eyes like autumn water, like a timid and frightened deer in the bush.
Xiao Youyuan lowered his head and kissed the tears from the corners of her eyes, "It's not your fault."
Either way, it was his fault. If it hadn't been for so many years, he might have lost his right to be a father.
He was already very content to meet Jiang Yun and feel the ordinary love between a man and a woman.
"I want to give birth to a child for the emperor." She stubbornly grabbed his lapel, not afraid of the emperor's anger at all.
He doted on her so much that now he has spoiled her to pieces.
Xiao Youyuan stroked her long hair, his deep eyes were soft, "Okay, I will work hard."
"Then if I do it, will the emperor reward me?" She continued to ask, her serious look showing a bit of coquettishness.
The emperor looked at her with a clear and majestic expression: "If you can do it, the position of queen will be given to you."
She was the only woman he had, and that position should have been hers. Even if there were no children, it only belonged to her.
Jiang Yun was stunned, not expecting him to say that.
"The emperor will also tease me." She put her arms around his waist and leaned against him softly, "I don't want those false reputations, I just want the emperor."
"I will only be yours." Xiao Youyuan promised.
What happened in the morning reached the ears of the Queen Mother, and in the afternoon the Queen Mother ran to the emperor to talk about it.
"The Ai family knows that you favor Jiang Guiren, and the queen will punish her as soon as she punishes you. How can you punish Concubine Liu again? She is still pregnant with the dragon heir." In the Queen Mother's heart, the emperor's heir is more important than the emperor.
The emperor said with a sullen face, "I only punished the queen, what does it have to do with me if the others kneel down?"
"You naughty bitch, you've learned to be stubborn!" The Queen Mother looked at her with disgust, "Anyway, you can't anger Concubine Liu in the future."
The emperor responded with a cold snort.
In Kunning Palace, tea cups were smashed all over the floor.
"Jiang Guiren is really pregnant!" The queen's eyes turned red.
Doctor Wang knelt on the ground and said, "Yes, it's been two months."
Two months later, the queen pinched her fingers, which was the first time she accepted a favor, and Hu Meizi became pregnant.
Well, that’s great, I actually kept it a secret for two months!
If she hadn't sent her confidant Dr. Wang, the news of her pregnancy today would have spread throughout the Sixth Palace.
"This matter must not be publicized to the outside world, otherwise..."
"Yes, Weichen must keep his mouth shut!"
Doctor Wang wiped the sweat from his forehead. He might not be able to save Jiang Guiren's child.
After the empress was punished by the emperor to kneel down, she became gentle and virtuous. She no longer held responsibilities when greeting her every day. She even rewarded her with gifts from time to time. Concubine Liu and Guiren Jiang received the most rewards.
Tea and snacks are also served every day. Outsiders feel that the harem is peaceful.
Jiang Yun was promoted from nobleman to noble concubine because she made the emperor laugh several times.
Soon the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival arrived, and Jiang Yun was pulled up early by Cuiliu to dress up.
"My lord, you have been getting up later and later these days." Cuiliu couldn't help but feel worried, "What will you do if the Queen asks you to dance with the sword tonight? She has been calling people to remind you every day, but you haven't practiced yet. "
Jiang Yun held her chin in her hands and continued to rest her mind, "Cui Liu."
"What are your instructions, little master?" Cuiliu put down the comb.
"I'm pregnant."
Cuiliu didn't react. She was about to continue combing Jiang Yun's hair when she suddenly lowered her head, her almond-shaped eyes widening, "What did the young master just say?"
Jiang Yun raised her eyebrows slightly, charming and charming.
Cuiliu had been loyal to her in her previous life and wanted to protect her until her death, so she didn't hide this from her anymore.
"Young Master is pregnant?" Cuiliu felt dizzy and quickly calmed down, "Is there any discomfort?"
"No, no, no, I can't practice my sword tonight, otherwise I should go and lie down on the bed now!" Cuiliu suddenly became nervous.
Jiang Yun laughed out loud instantly, reached out and patted her head, "Shut up."
Cuiliu quickly shut her mouth.
"The queen also knows that I am pregnant, so she will definitely harm me tonight." Jiang Yun said in a calm voice.
She had deliberately vomited to the queen before, and she also guessed that she would ask her confidant, the doctor Wang, to come and see it, so the child was bound to be hidden.
During these days, the queen kept thinking of ways to cause her to have an abortion, but she was able to resolve it every time.
Cuiliu clenched her fists, "I will definitely protect my little master!"
"Don't go tonight." In her last life, she was knocked unconscious, and Cuiliu was captured by the queen's people. In the end, she was disfigured and her voice was hoarse.
Later, he helped her deliver a message to her parents outside the palace, and died at the hands of Xie Yan while escorting her away.
She still remembers that scene, an arrow piercing her heart, and with her last breath she still opened her mouth to let her go.
"How can that happen? This servant must follow the young master." Cuiliu said worriedly.
Jiang Yun reached out and grabbed her face. The little maid had gained weight these days.
"Then you follow Eunuch Lai Xi all the time, and you can go wherever he goes." She would be easily arrested if she was left alone in Hualuo Palace, so it was better to stay under his nose.
"Yes."
As night fell, all the concubines and court ministers came to the palace.
Jiang Yun was sitting below the emperor, looking casually at Xie Yan in the distance.
That was her biggest enemy, and all the humiliation in her previous life came to her mind in an instant.
