Chapter 273: The Goddess of Childbirth: Legend of Zhen Huan (3)
Concubine Hua and the Queen both wanted Shiyi to live closer to them, hoping that he could share in the blessing of being the reincarnation of Guanyin so that things would be smoother for them, and most importantly, they could have their own children.
The other concubines also had their own thoughts and were considering having more contact with Shi Yi in the future. The newcomers to the palace were unaware of this and only thought that Concubine Hua and the Queen were both good people and not as the rumors said.
"The Empress Dowager is not feeling well and needs to rest. Cousin, you'd better stay in Chengqian Palace for the time being." Moving the palace will cause trouble again, so it's better to have some peace and stability. The Queen pulled Shiyi to sit next to her: "Are you tired of standing just now? Cousin, sit here and rest your feet."
Xia Dongchun was extremely jealous and full of resentment. She wanted to get close to Zhen Huan and say something unpleasant, but Zhen Huan had anticipated it and turned away. Xia Dongchun had no choice but to shut up and sulk.
Zhen Huan thought to herself, it was a close call, she was almost dragged into this by Xia Dongchun, luckily she saw through it and dodged it, otherwise wouldn't this be going against Concubine Hua and Queen?
Of course, even though Concubine Chun was the one with the highest rank among the newcomers, Zhen Huan was still not too afraid of her, mainly because she was too young to compete with her.
In order to spend more time with Shiyi, the Queen deliberately extended the entire greeting time. Hua Fei naturally had no objection, after all, this was also her plan. The only thing she was dissatisfied about was why Chunpin could not sit with her.
The other concubines naturally had no objections, but the poor newcomer stood timidly in the hall listening to the concerned words of the empress and the other concubines.
"I remember your cousin's maiden name is Fang Jiayi Chun. In that case, I will call you Chun'er from now on?" The queen held Shiyi's hand. If Shiyi didn't know what she was thinking, he would have suspected that she had a crush on him.
"As long as my cousin likes it"
"Then I will just call you Sister Chun'er," Concubine Hua was unwilling to be outdone.
"Empress Hua, please be as you please." Shi Yi nodded politely to Concubine Hua.
Xia Dongchun was so jealous of Shiyi's glorious appearance that she pouted and wanted to say something bad about Shiyi, but Zhen Huan beside her ignored her. She couldn't turn around and talk to the people in front and behind her, so she had to hold it in.
The Queen dragged everyone to sit in Jingren Palace for the whole morning. If it hadn't been for lunch time, she would have been reluctant to let Shi Yi leave. Fortunately, Jianqiu was smart.
"Empress Chun, the Empress Dowager has prepared several dishes and said they tasted good. She wants you to stay and taste them with the Empress." Jianqiu went to see the Empress Dowager early and secretly expressed the Empress's desire to get closer to Shiyi.
The Queen Mother sent a few dishes, which was not too abrupt, but it happened to kidnap Shiyi away from Concubine Hua. Shiyi turned around and went back. Concubine Hua couldn't help but become angry.
"The Queen is really something. If an old clam really gives birth to a pearl, I don't know whether it is a blessing or a joke."
"Your Majesty is still young, so naturally she got pregnant before the Queen. The Queen can keep her for a while, but can she keep Concubine Chun for the rest of her life?" Songzhi's words comforted Concubine Hua.
Just at this moment, I heard a quarrel coming from the front: "Why did you ignore me in Jingren Palace just now? I saw you talking to Concubine Shen. You even talked to that poor An, but ignored me."
There was a hint of grievance in Xia Dongchun's tone, which made Zhen Huan, who was already a little angry, unable to get angry. Looking at Xia Dongchun's red eyes, and thinking about her neglect of Xia Dongchun in the hall just now, Zhen Huan really felt a little guilty.
"Sister Xia, please forgive me. An and I agreed. Concubine Shen is an old acquaintance, so naturally we are more eager to get closer. Besides, you still have Concubine Fucha in front of you, why don't you talk to her?"
Xia Dongchun didn't say anything. Did she want her to say that she was afraid of talking to a noble lady from a big family like Noble Lady Fucha?
An Lingrong looked at the two people who were talking and felt somewhat envious of their elegance and grace. She mustered up the courage to speak but was interrupted by Concubine Hua.
"Who do I think it is? Is Concubine Xia not hungry, so she is blocking the gate of Jingren Palace?" Concubine Hua was really hungry. She always ate on time and usually had some snacks. It was a little late at this time.
"Greetings to Concubine Hua." Several people hurriedly saluted, but Concubine Hua did not call them.
"Isn't it autumn already? Why is the Imperial Garden so noisy today?" Concubine Hua waved her hand, looking very impatient.
"Your Majesty, perhaps there are still some cicadas that have not died in the autumn. Cicadas are the most annoying. I think they must be bothering Your Majesty. Why don't we send someone to drive away the cicadas in the imperial garden so that Your Majesty can have some peace and quiet," Xia Dongchun suggested, thinking he was being clever.
Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang could not help but have an ominous premonition. The next second, Hua Fei's words confirmed their thoughts. Hua Fei opened her red lips and said, "Then please trouble the three sisters to catch all the autumn cicadas in the imperial garden, so as not to worry others."
After Hua Fei finished speaking, she left without even leaving anyone behind to watch over the three people. She only ordered the palace maids who were cleaning the surroundings to keep an eye on the three people. It was obvious that she was reluctant to let the people around her starve.
Xia Dongchun was the first one to be dissatisfied. After all, they had been watching the Queen asking Concubine Chun about her well-being all morning while hungry. Why should they be allowed to catch cicadas in the imperial garden?
Due to the supervision of the little palace maid, Xia Dongchun had to catch cicadas even though he was very reluctant. Compared with the bulky summer cicadas, autumn cicadas were obviously more flexible. Therefore, the three of them could be said to have worked in vain and achieved no results at all.
Xia Dongchun kept complaining. She didn't think that offending Concubine Hua was a serious matter at all. At this time, Shiyi was still having meals with the Queen. The table was filled with the original owner's favorite food. It was obvious that the Queen had put a lot of thought into it.
“Cousin, you have to eat more. You look so thin.” Yixiu ignored Shiyi’s round face and picked up some food for him against her conscience.
Shi Yi did not feel flattered at all, and calmly accepted the fact that the Queen of a country personally picked food for him. She was more emperor-like than the Emperor, which made the Queen feel inexplicably convinced.
That night, the emperor, who was supposed to favor the newcomer, came to Jingren Palace and even called for water three times, which was unprecedented. It was obvious that the emperor tried very hard to have a legitimate son.
After watching the whole process, Shi Yi felt very disappointed. The emperor really was overwhelmed. If this continued, how long would it take for all the concubines to become pregnant? There were still many residual souls in his space.
It's not that Shiyi has a unique taste and likes to watch live pornography, it's just that the residual soul is too weak and doesn't even have the ability to reincarnate on its own. Shiyi can only choose a suitable mother and inject the residual soul into her during the pregnancy.
After three times, the emperor was obviously tired, but the queen seemed to be quite satisfied. At first glance, the queen secretly glanced at the emperor, and seemed a little dissatisfied.
Shi Yi put the remaining soul of the First Emperor into Yi Xiu's belly. No matter what, the queen would be a good mother, but the First Emperor did not have a good mother.
