"This was given to elder sister by the emperor. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for younger sister to take it, so it's better for elder sister to keep it for herself.”Ruoqin did not look at Zhi Ran, but her tone was getting more and more out of line with what she was thinking. "I originally came to give you something, but now that I've seen so much jewelry, I really can't bring it out.”
Zhi Ran quickly said,"Sister, you're being distant with me!" You and I have entered the palace at the same time, and we have been like sisters for so many years. Sister doesn't want these jewelry, but Sister must accept what Sister gives!”
"Younger Sister doesn't ask for Elder Sister's pity, but for Elder Sister's genuine love.”After Ruoqin finished speaking, she took out a sachet from her sleeve and said," This is all personally embroidered by Younger Sister. Elder Sister likes the White Angelica, so Younger Sister embroidered one for Elder Sister. The spices inside were carefully selected by his sister, so his sister could use them without worry.”
"You gave it to me. Why would I be worried? Sorry to trouble you." Zhi Ran smiled as she accepted the sachet and asked Fei Xing to hang it on the bed. "Sister, you can choose whether you want these accessories or not.”Zhi Ran knew that Ruoqin wasn't favored now, but her position was constantly rising. It was inevitable that she would be jealous when she came to her.
"If sister really wants to give it to me, then give me this bracelet.”Ruoqin pointed at the violet jade bracelet on Zhi Ran's hand. " This..." Zhi Ran actually had a trace of hesitation. "It doesn't matter if Sister isn't willing. Sister is just joking! However, this bracelet is rare. Can you show it to your sister?”
Zhi Ran took off the bracelet as if she had made up her mind."I'll give it to you. If you like it, I'll give it to you.”Nearby, Water Deity and Fei Xing looked at her in shock. "No, sister is not worthy of such expensive things. Sister, you should keep it for yourself." Ruoqin did not take the bracelet that Zhi Ran handed over and only took a sip of tea. This scene made Zhi Ran very embarrassed.
"Alright, Big Sister, Little Sister is going to see Imperial Concubine Xian.”Ruoqin stood up and bowed before leaving. However, Zhi Ran was unable to react in time. When she regained her senses, Ruoqin had already left. "Water Deity, go pick a few high-quality treasures and send them to Noble Ming. Also, take this bracelet.”
"But…this is a gift from the emperor, so expensive…"
"Just take it. It's worth it to exchange a bracelet for a close friend. If I don't give it to her, I'm afraid there will really be a barrier between us…"
"Yes."
Ruoqin did not go to Imperial Concubine Xian's place. She just walked back silently. " Mistress…" Gu Xue saw the estrangement between her and Zhi Ran and said," Your Concubine is indeed a little too much. Giving you something the Emperor bestowed, isn't that clearly looking down on you!?" You asked her for the violet jade bracelet, but she was reluctant to give it to you. They're good sisters…"
"Shut up!" Ruoqin lowered her voice. Guxue looked up and saw Ruoqin clenching her teeth, her face twisted. "You're not allowed to speak ill of my sister! It's because of my sister's ability that she's favored. Even if she looks down on me, it's normal!”Guxue didn't dare to say anything more and could only follow Ruo Qin.
Spring was a particularly lazy day. Although Zhi Ran was only three months pregnant, she could not wake up every morning. Fortunately, Chu Xia was coming soon, so Zhi Ran felt slightly more energetic.
"Niangniang, it's time to drink the medicine to stabilize the fetus." Water Deity entered the house.
"Yes." Zhi Ran sat up on the bed and drank it.
"Niangniang, the weather should be hot now. Niangniang, get out of bed. This servant will accompany you to the imperial garden. Otherwise, if you are always lazy, won't the little brother in your stomach be lazy in the future!”Water Deity smiled as she helped Zhi Ran up.
Zhi Ran's mouth curled up and said,"Don't talk nonsense. It's not certain whether it's an elder brother or a princess!"”
"Then this servant will clean up the house and will not accompany you!”Fei Xing said as she folded the blanket.
In the imperial garden, Zhi Ran looked at the vibrant, red and green scenery and was very happy. "The ancients had many poems praising spring. In the past, I thought that spring was so beautiful, but look at this garden full of spring. I have to say that my vision in the past was indeed narrow.”Zhi Ran said as she stroked a blooming peony.
"The Empress is talented and intelligent, even the Emperor praises her! How can the Empress be narrow-minded!" Water Deity teased," The child in Your Majesty's stomach must be as intelligent as Your Majesty!”
"Look at you, talking nonsense again! Don't spout nonsense outside!"
"It's very possible. As the saying goes,'Like father, like son'. In your case, it becomes' like mother, like son'!”
Zhi Ran turned her head and saw Xiang Zhu holding on to Pin Ru with one hand and stroking her stomach with the other. "Greetings Consort Shun!" Zhi Ran and Water Deity bowed.
"Get up, you are also a pregnant person. Even the emperor doesn't allow you to bow, why do you need to bow to bengong!”
Zhi Ran got up and looked up at Xiang Zhu,"Empress, you should be four months pregnant, right?”
"Yes, I am. It's been four months. Only after becoming a mother did she know how hard it is to have a child. No matter what, bengong must protect this child with her life!”Xiang Zhu rubbed her belly, her eyes filled with determination.
"Sister, let's talk in private." Xiang Zhu reached out and pulled Zhi Ran. Zhi Ran was shocked and was pulled behind a fake mountain. "Sister, you have to always remember that the children in your stomach are all innocent. Now that only you and I are pregnant, everyone has to be careful, even if that person is your closest sister.”
When Zhi Ran heard this, she was stunned on the spot. "Your Highness, what are you saying…"
"Pinru! "Bengong is tired, help Bengong back to rest…" Before Zhi Ran could finish, Xiang Zhu had already walked outside the fake mountain. Taste Ru supported her, Xiang Zhu took one last look at Zhi Ran and left.
"Farewell Consort Shun Niangniang." Zhi Ran stood up and looked at Xiang Zhu's back as she left. She was filled with doubts. " What does she mean by that…" Zhi Ran mumbled to herself along the way." What does she mean by even being the closest sister?”Narcissus shook her head and said,"Why does Your Majesty care about this?" Consort Shun Niangniang and Consort Dun Pin are in cahoots, consort must not easily believe it!”Zhi Ran nodded." BenGong knows. Let's go, let's go back."”
After returning to Yanxi Palace, Zhi Ran sat in front of the mirror in the bedroom. Suddenly, she saw that the sachet that Ruoqin had given her by the bedside was gone. Zhi Ran turned her head and asked Fei Xing,"Fei Xing, where did the sachet go?"
"Replying to Niangniang, this servant smelled that there was no smell, so I took it out and threw it away.”
"Foolish! He could throw away anything but this! This is a gift from Noble Ming. Quickly go and find it!”
When Fei Xing heard this, she quickly put down the things in her hands and went out to search.
"Niangniang, this servant will make you a cup of tea.”Water Deity said. Zhi Ran nodded and went to the main hall to wait for Fei Xing to bring the sachet back. "Niangniang, this is Kuding tea personally rewarded by the emperor.”Narcissus put down the tea.
Zhi Ran opened the lid. There was indeed a refreshing tea fragrance. She blew on it and took a small sip.
"It's so bitter." Zhi Ran muttered.
"As the saying goes, good medicine tastes bitter." Water Deity said with a smile.
Zhi Ran frowned and drank it. Suddenly, a sharp pain struck Zhi Ran's abdomen. The only thing that Zhi Ran could remember was that she had slipped off the chair, and Narcissus 'terrified eyes. After that, it was pitch black.
After an unknown amount of time, Zhi Ran gradually regained consciousness. She opened her eyes slightly and saw the Emperor's anxious face, so gentle and so anxious. Is he worried about me? When he looked again, he saw Wei Xuanyun kneeling not far away, Shui Xian and Fei Xing kneeling by the bed, and the Empress, Imperial Concubine Xian, and Ruoqin standing outside. "You're awake?" The Emperor leaned closer to Zhi Ran's face and asked softly. Zhi Ran nodded slowly, and the Emperor's expression relaxed a little. He caressed Zhi Ran's face with a sad expression and said softly," Rest well. There will be more children…"
" Child..." Zhi Ran was stunned. She touched her stomach with one hand and struggled to get up with the other. The Emperor pulled her hand and pressed her onto the bed, saying,"Ran 'er, don't be like this. I promise you that you will have a child. Rest well..." How could my child be gone?!" Zhi Ran's expression was very painful. Tears flowed down her pale face as she cried,"Wei Xuanyun! Tell me! Why didn't I have a child? Didn't you say that my fetus has always been stable? Why?" Zhi Ran shouted excitedly and soon fainted again.
"You must take good care of your concubine and find out why she miscarried.”The Emperor gave Wei Xuanyun an order. "Yes." Wei Xuanyun accepted the order. The news of Zhi Ran's miscarriage quickly spread throughout the entire harem. The happiest person was Guan Ling. She knew that Zhi Ran would collapse without a child.
"Has the Empress fallen ill recently?" Wei Xuanyun asked Narcissus and Fei Xing. Water Deity and Fei Xing looked at each other, then shook their heads and said,""The Empress has never been seriously ill. Besides, the Empress's fetus has always been examined by Lord Wei. Even if she was seriously ill, would you not know?”
"Did the Empress use any spices?”
"This servant is very careful and only occasionally uses some sandalwood. This servant doesn't even dare to use a slightly stimulating spice!”
Wei Xuanyun fell into deep thought. Logically speaking, Zhi Ran's physique was very good, so there shouldn't be any reason for her miscarriage. Wei Xuanyun also to ZhiRan slippery fetus matter after thinking for a long time can not understand.
"Imperial Physician Wei, this servant thought of something!”Fei Xing said," A few months ago, Noble Ming gave the Empress a sachet. Take a look."”After saying that, he took the sachet from Zhi Ran's bedside. Wei Xuanyun opened it and took a sniff. He frowned."Chenxiang…?"
"What is agarwood?" Water Deity asked.
"Agarwood will cause the tires to slip." Wei Xuanyun's expression was very serious. He quietly looked at the agarwood in his hand, his expression a little doubtful. Can the agarwood in a sachet cause a slippery tire…#Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
