Fu Qianyu waved her hand and smiled nonchalantly, "It's all a small matter, sister, don't take it to heart."
After saying this, he ordered people to bring out the rewards that had been prepared in advance, and said some warning words to Concubine Xian step by step, and everyone dispersed.
Concubine Lian and Concubine Hui stayed.
Speaking of Concubine Xian, Concubine Hui couldn't help but sigh: "How could there be such a similar person in this world? The moment Concubine Xian came in, I really thought Concubine Rou was alive again."
Concubine Lian held the teacup and drank tea slowly. "There is nothing strange in this world. Besides, they just look alike."
As the two were talking, Concubine Lian felt her stomach churning. Without even putting down the tea bowl in her hand, she turned her back and vomited repeatedly.
The teacup was broken into pieces on the ground, and the light green tea soaked a large area of her skirt. Everyone was shocked and asked what happened.
But after all, Fu Xiyu and Hui Jieyu had both given birth, so looking at Concubine Lian's reaction, you can tell what's going on.
Fu Qianyu ordered Lingyun to help Lian Fei go in to change clothes. When she came out, Lian Fei's face was already slightly flushed.
"How many months?"
Concubine Lian said shyly, "Only two months."
Fu Qianyu counted on her fingers and asked, "Did it happen on the night of the Lantern Festival?"
Concubine Lian nodded, and Concubine Hui said happily, "My sister, you are so happy! Others might let it go, but why did you hide it from me and the Empress?"
"My sister and the Empress are both busy with the Queen Mother's birthday celebration. How can I disturb your peace and quiet? Besides, it's not even three months old yet, so it's not appropriate to publicize it."
"Yes, my sister is right." Concubine Hui nodded, her face solemn. "The palace may seem peaceful now, but there are actually quite a few chaotic things going on. My sister really needs to be careful."
Fu Qianyu looked at Concubine Lian with some concern: "You lost a lot of blood when you gave birth last year. You haven't been pregnant for less than a year now. Has the imperial physician come to see you?"
Concubine Lian nodded, raised her hand and stroked her belly, saying solemnly, "Imperial Physician Qin has come to see me and said that I have recovered very well and have made up for the loss from last year's childbirth."
"That's good."
As she spoke, Fu Qianyu turned her head and instructed Peirong, "A few days ago, Prince Gong's Mansion sent a ginseng. Go find it and have Concubine Lian take it back later."
But after waiting for a long time, no one responded. Lingyun was the first to react, bent her knees, and walked towards the inner storehouse.
Peirong was pushed back to her senses and knelt down to apologize: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was distracted just now."
Fu Qianyu was slightly dissatisfied, but because there were others present, she did not blame him. She only coldly instructed Peirong: "The Concubine Lian is pregnant and cannot drink such strong tea. Go and get a cup of candied date tea instead."
"Yes, I'll go right away."
Peirong was about to leave when she ran into Lingyun who came in with ginseng.
The two of them didn't say anything. Peirong even glared at Lingyun fiercely before snorting coldly and walking out.
This scene was seen by Concubine Lian and Concubine Hui, but they just looked at each other without saying anything. After sitting for a while, they stood up and said goodbye and went back.
After leaving Fengyi Palace, Concubine Xian took advantage of the situation and went to Changxin Palace. The two sat opposite each other, and Concubine Shu half-leaned on the couch and said lazily, "You have a simple and ancient makeup, and you are elegant and beautiful. The emperor gave you the word Xian as a title. It seems that he really likes you."
Concubine Xian lowered her eyes slightly, with a wry smile on her face: "I am able to be where I am today, and I understand better than anyone where this favor comes from."
Concubine Shu smiled and said, "Well, no matter where your favor comes from, at least the emperor likes you."
"yes."
At this moment, a palace maid brought hot tea and placed it in front of Concubine Xian. Concubine Shu raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "The Queen Mother's birthday is in July. You don't have much time left, Concubine Xian. I have honored you, so you should know what to do."
Concubine Xian's face tightened, "Yes, I will leave it to your majesty to decide."
As she spoke, Concubine Shu raised her eyebrows at Mo Xiang. Mo Xiang turned around and took out another packet of secret medicine from the box and handed it to Concubine Xian.
"My Lady, what is this?"
"You only need to take a little of this medicine every day. Within half a month, the Imperial Hospital will be able to discover that you are pregnant."
Concubine Xian was completely stunned. The medicine in her hand felt like a hot potato. "Your Majesty, you, you want me to fake a pregnancy?"
"All you have to do is pretend to have a stomachache at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, and I will take care of the rest for you."
Concubine Xian hurriedly got up from the couch, plopping to her knees on the ground, and said in fear, "Your Majesty, if this fake pregnancy is discovered, it will be a capital crime. Even if I really did what you said, how can I hide it from the palace physician?"
Concubine Shu smiled calmly, "Don't worry, Doctor Tong from the Imperial Hospital is my trusted confidant. He will naturally take care of everything for you. Now it's just a matter of whether you are willing to do it or not."
There was a dead despair in Concubine Xian's eyes. She really wanted to tell Concubine Shu that the Emperor had already known about their actions, and even the Empress Dowager had sent them contraceptive pills early this morning.
But she always remembered what Zhao Yuancheng said to her.
"Whatever Concubine Shu asks you to do, you must agree. But don't worry, after this is over, I will keep you safe."
"My Lady, are you really like this?"
Concubine Shu sneered: "From the day you found me, there was no turning back, Concubine Xian, you'd better remember this."
The room was so quiet that one could almost hear the sound of petals falling outside.
After a moment, Concubine Xian finally kowtowed and responded: "Yes, I obey your order."
A few days later, the spring weather was beautiful. Fu Qianyu was bored, so she took her two children to the yard to fly kites.
The Imperial Garden was filled with the sounds of children’s voices and laughter.
Fu Qianyu sat on a stool and watched the wet nurses playing with their sons, occasionally telling the two children to slow down, but in her heart she was thinking that it would be great if Heng'er could be here too.
But not long after, a group of people came windingly from a distance. When Peirong saw who they were, she immediately snorted coldly: "Why is she here on such a nice day? It's really unlucky."
Fu Qianyu looked slightly displeased. When someone approached and greeted her, she smiled and said, "No need to be polite."
The person who came was Concubine Xian.
I remembered that Zhao Yuancheng was supposed to come to Fengyi Palace last night, but suddenly went to Concubine Xian's place. I remembered that Concubine Rou also looked like a vixen in the past.
Peirong couldn't help but sneered, "Empress Xianpin just slept with the emperor last night, how come she still has the energy to stroll around the garden today? Doesn't she need to serve the emperor?"
It is really vulgar to say such things in broad daylight.
Concubine Xian's face immediately turned red, and she knelt down in front of Fu Qianyu to apologize.
Fu Qianyu looked at Peirong coldly, "How dare you speak nonsense in front of me and Concubine Xian?"
Peirong lowered her head, clearly dissatisfied. Concubine Xian was embarrassed and said, "It's all my fault. I have offended Your Majesty. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave."
Fu Qianyu nodded, and when the others had walked away, she turned her head and looked at Peirong coldly: "Kneel down."
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the wet nurses and palace maids hurriedly took the children and walked away until only the master and servant were left around.
Fu Qianyu then said coldly, "Empress Xian is a proper mistress. What rules did you just say?"
