71, Laba
Jin Gina would say this, Xia Tong was not surprised at all. After all, she was just a little girl, and she was a newcomer and unfamiliar place, so she would naturally subconsciously seek a familiar shelter.
It’s not that she has a deep relationship with the Xia family.
Xia Tong smiled and said, "How can you make a fool of yourself in a big marriage? Princess, please stop ruining me."
Besides, the family is not very matched. Xia Tong's two brothers have neither title nor fame, which is not very consistent with Jin Jina, the noble princess from Beirong. The eldest son of the eldest wife can inherit the title, but he has already married, so he can't stop his wife and remarry. Besides, the son raised by the eldest wife is the same as her, sarcastic and harsh, and he is not a good match.
Jin Gina pouted and said, "But if I marry into another family, I will not be able to live a good life."
During this period, the Xia family took in a princess and visited many relatives and friends. Although they were all polite in appearance, Jin Jina could sensitively detect the alienation - if they were not of my race, their hearts would be different. These people just regarded her as a decoration and could be judged at will.
But she came on the order of the king and assumed the responsibility of communicating with the two countries, so she had to find a home in the Great Zhou Dynasty. Instead of going to another family, she would rather stay in Yunyang Bo Mansion.
Xia Tong touched Jin Jina's two black and shiny braids and said pity: "Then you shouldn't easily entrust your life to you. In such a huge capital, there are naturally a hundred people. If you keep your eyes open and choose carefully, you can always choose one that suits you."
She herself has no chance to fall in love freely, but if possible, she hopes that Jin Jina can gain a sincere love - the girl in front of her is still so young, she should have the right to be happy.
Xia Tong smiled and held her hand, "Of course, even though you lived in my house during the period before you got married, my parents are very kind people and will never make you embarrassed."
Jin Gina then became happy, stood on tiptoe, and kissed Xia Tong on the cheek quickly, "Empress, thank you."
Xia Tong watched her jump and leave like a little rabbit, and thought the girl was very interesting - it would be great if she could have a girl who was as likable as Jin Gina in the future.
It is naturally better to have both children.
Liu Zhang appeared in front of her like a ghost, "What are you looking at?"
Xia Tong covered her heart and felt a bit like a ghost, "Why don't you let me spread it? I was shocked by you."
Liu Zhang thought to himself that this man was getting more and more courageous, and he dared to blame him. Who was so stupid that he forgot to greet him?
He said without saying a word: "What did Princess Beirong tell you just now?"
"It's nothing, it's just a trivial matter." Xia Tong calmed down. As for Jin Jina's joke that she was going to marry into the Xia family, she should not tell the emperor about such words, otherwise she would have thought the Xia family had any plans and coaxed Princess Beirong to come to Guanghao's house.
Liu Zhang pointed at her left cheek, "Is this what she did?"
Seeing that he looked strange, Xia Tong hurriedly took the diamond glasses to take a look at them in detail, and found a bright lilac lip mark on his left face - Jin Gina's preferences are different from others, and she likes to use purple rouge.
Thinking of the little girl's cute behavior, Xia Tong couldn't help but nodded with a smile.
Then she found that the emperor's expression was even more strange, "Will she like you?"
Xia Tong took a lot of effort to understand. The emperor said that likes refers to likes in a physiological sense. He blushed and said, "I'm not as good as polishing a mirror!"
She herself has been from modern times and naturally adapted to Jin Gina's open behavior well, but she forgot that the emperor has been in a subtle and restrained environment since childhood. Seeing that her two acted deviantly, she thought they were having a lily relationship.
Xia Tong was once again shocked by the emperor's rich imagination, and she could not help but misunderstand. She dared not hide it, so she had to honestly repeat Jin Jina's meaning.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zhang thought, "If she really wants to marry into the Xia family, it's okay."
Anyway, Jin Jina is a princess, so it would be better to follow the customs of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If she chooses someone, she will reward the title of the son-in-law and then give it to the princess's mansion - this will also avoid many troubles.
The man she picked was naturally a step ahead of the sky.
Faced with the temptation of the pie falling from the sky, Xia Tong said, "I'd better ask the princess what she meant first, don't worry about it."
Now she is favored and is pregnant with the royal heir. If the Xia family marry another princess at this moment, then the capital will be jealous and jealous. Before the child is born safely, Xia Tong would rather be low-key.
Soon Laba Festival came, and the palace was filled with a cheerful and lively atmosphere. The concubines were not as lucky as Xia Tong to be pregnant with the emperor's heir. They rarely saw their family members during festivals. Now they finally got the opportunity, so they naturally had to dress up well, and make sure that their relatives see their bright and beautiful side so that they would not worry.
Except for Feng Yuzhen, everyone was looking forward to it - Feng Yuzhen herself still called her sick. Her mother was just a concubine, and even if she entered the palace, the eldest lady came in. When she thought of how the legitimate mother who had a smile would talk to her, Feng Yuzhen was very worried and would rather not see her.
Otherwise, the news that she would wet her pants tomorrow would probably spread throughout the capital.
Although Feng Zaishan blamed his daughter for being fooled, he was born after all. In addition, Feng Yuzhen was quite frightened in front of the emperor recently, Feng Zaishan thought she was of some use, so he was naturally unwilling to give up. Therefore, he persuaded her to stop her and told her not to go to the palace to reveal the shortcomings of her concubine's daughter.
Feng Yuzhen was so depressed that she was living the Laba Festival, and she refused to even drink the porridge - she wanted to not have a small explanation from now on.
Li Mi was just as unhappy as her. She contracted the flowers in the entire greenhouse alone and personally cooked several buckets of hot and fragrant Laba porridge, but no one thanked her at all, as if she was born to be a coolie.
Even her mother's arrival made her unable to get interested.
Mrs. Li was originally prepared with a lot of heartache, but when she saw her daughter, she couldn't say the sentence "You're losing weight" - Li Mi looked not only not thin, but she was much fatter than when she was at home.
Is life in the palace very comfortable?
Mrs. Li asked tentatively: "You have been in the palace for almost a year and have not sent a letter home. Your father is so concerned about it. What's going on?"
Both the couple expect their daughter to make a name for themselves - Li Mi did not hide the fact that she had space from her elders, and she practiced her good cooking skills in the space.
Mrs. Li was also a little scared at first, suspecting that her daughter was transformed from a monster. It can be seen that there are many wonderful things in that space, so she thought that sending her into the palace might be a good idea. As the saying goes, if you grasp a man's heart, you have to grasp the man's stomach first. If your daughter has this natural magic weapon, is she afraid that she will not be valued in the palace?
Li Mi said listlessly: "Don't mention it, Your Majesty doesn't like these tricks."
Most of the delicious dishes she made were cheaper Xia Tong - I don’t know why this person’s appetite is so good, and she just eats it and doesn’t get fat. She even suspects that the other person’s stomach is made of a rubber bag.
Mrs. Li frowned, "I haven't heard of this daughter of the Xia family in the boudoir, how could she fascinate His Majesty? Don't you use any magic tricks?"
Li Mi stirred the porridge bucket with a slight silence, "Who knows."
In Roufu Palace, Wang Jingyi met her aunt as she wished, which was happier than seeing her biological mother. She heard that the emperor allowed her relatives to reunite with her relatives on Laba Festival, so she was worried that the stingy parents would come to ask for money.
Fortunately, it's not.
Her aunt sighed, "Your mother was planning to come here, but I was coaxing her. She said that the eunuchs in the palace were all looking down on others, and they were looking down on money. They couldn't escape without taking it through layers of stripping. She was frightened by me, and then she gave up."
Wang Jingyi said gratefully: "You did a good job."
Although she was lucky enough to serve in Ningshou Palace, Empress Dowager Jiang would occasionally give her some rewards, but the Empress Dowager's harem was full of old men who had lived for a long time. Wang Jingyi wanted to flatter them and ask them to help say something nice to the empress dowager, and she would have to use silver to make some money.
She couldn't save much herself, so where could she have the spare money to fill her parents' home?
When my aunt heard her say pitifully, she couldn't help but say, "So, you haven't favored her yet?"
Wang Jingyi lowered her head, "It was because the empress dowager was pitiful to me before, and she also benefited from Concubine Xia."
Xia Tong has been promoted twice in a row. My aunt was incredible, "Don't you have a spiritual spring in your hand? Why is she pregnant, but there is no news in your abdomen?"
Her only child was conceived by her niece Lingquan. It is said that it is very effective. How could others take the lead?
Wang Jingyi was very upset when she remembered the stupid things she had done before. If she had known that the emperor had not drunk the sober tea at all, she should have dumped it as soon as possible, but Xia Tong picked up the cheaper one.
Seeing the other person's belly getting bigger day by day, Wang Jingyi felt like she was burning. But what could she do? Even if Xia Tong couldn't sleep, the emperor still stayed in her bedroom, and even a fly could not fly in.
Hearing this, my aunt had no choice but to do anything, "What are you going to do?"
"...I have to take one step at a time," said Wang Jingyi. "When she has given birth to a child and has a confinement period, there may be a turnaround at that time."
It is not advisable to take care of the bed during confinement, and you must avoid taking a bath and blowing air. At that time, you are sticky and smelly, and she doesn't believe that the emperor dares to approach.
