Comprehensive film and television: The cool life of the female supporting role after the cross-dress
Chapter 138 Ye Bingshang48
Ye Bingshang flattered like most concubines, not asking for anything special but only for no mistakes, "Then I hope Hongxing can be as talented and dignified as the emperor."
But Yinzhen rejected it, "A real man won't settle for this. When Hongxing grows up, I will ask the first Baturu of Manchuria to teach him."
Usually fathers like their sons to be like themselves, but a father knows himself. Yinzhen knew very well that his arm strength of only 4.5 was not good enough among the Manchus and was far inferior to that of his brothers.
The narrow-minded man now hopes that Hong Xing, whom he has high hopes for, can continue to fight for his honor by punching the great general Wang Lao Shisi and kicking Lao Shiqi to kill two birds with one stone.
"..." Ye Bingshang heard the unspeakable disdain in Yinzhen's tone, and felt even more strange and puzzled. She said ambiguously, "Your Majesty is thinking for the good of Hongxing."
"Ah."
Because they were twins, Ye Bingshang had to stay in confinement for two months. This was the perfect time for the Ministry of Internal Affairs to renovate the Yongshou Palace and plant purple magnolias and pear blossoms.
When Ye Bingshang moved in with her two children, it was very elegant, exquisite and luxurious. Caiyue and Caixing were assigned to be personal maids to take care of Luanyue and Hongxing. Now she has Fangzhi and Yugu by her side.
Most of those precious orchid pots were left in the Lanqi Valley, a side hall of the Xianfu Palace, and handed over to Jingpin to take care of and pass the time. Ye Bingshang only brought the white ghost orchid to the Yongshou Palace.
"I will have to resume paying respects tomorrow. I'm afraid the Empress's headache will come back again." Ye Bingshang was making small clothes for the two children herself. Her expression was calm and gentle, which formed a sharp contrast with her tone which had a hint of coldness.
"Yes, yesterday Concubine Hua finally finished copying the books and was released from the ban. The palace is going to be bustling."
It was indeed going to be lively. From now on, she no longer had to pretend to be angry in front of Shen Meizhuang, who was more important than wealth and life. Not only had she established a firm foothold, but she also had a perfect excuse.
It is not uncommon throughout history for women to experience a drastic change in temperament after giving birth.
When paying respects the next day, Ye Bingshang, who had been promoted to Concubine Lan, sat between Concubine Hua, who had just been released from confinement, and Zhen Huan, who was quite distant from her. The three of them stood side by side, staring at each other, and no one paid any attention to each other.
It was obvious that this seat was specially arranged by the Queen. Otherwise, according to the Qing Dynasty's rule of giving seats to Manchus and Mongols first and then Han people, the person sitting behind her should be Concubine Mi, and Zhen Huan should sit diagonally opposite her.
If she were to follow the emperor's favor, she would have given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, and would have been in the emperor's good graces and sat in front of Concubine Hua. She should not be sitting in this seat now.
Ye Bingshang looked normal, dignified and calm. As long as she was not uncomfortable, only others would feel uncomfortable.
After many days, Ye Bingshang saw Zhen Huan and Concubine Hua again. After looking at them carefully, she almost didn't recognize them.
In memory, Zhen Huan was extremely beautiful. Concubine Cao once praised Zhen Huan for her appearance as graceful as a startled swan and elegant as a swimming dragon. But now Zhen Huan is pale and thin, and her eyes are lifeless. She can no longer find the lively and energetic look of the past.
And Concubine Hua is also very different from what I remember.
Not only did she not mock her and Zhen Huan, but she looked dazed and resentful. Ye Bingshang's mind flashed with a memory of Shen Meizhuang, which was the scene at Wen Yi's first birthday party when Concubine Hua recited Lou Dong Fu with great emotion.
But how can I be jealous of my beauty, and be filled with jealousy? I have been deprived of my favor and banished to the secluded palace.
Her former arrogance was eventually worn away while she was imprisoned and had to copy "Female Rules", "Female Training", "Female Virtues" and "Female Precepts".
Ye Bingshang subconsciously hid the jade bracelet on her hand into her sleeve. She was dressed a little too conspicuously today. Who could have thought that she would see Zhen Huan and Concubine Hua like this again.
Concubine Qi, on the other hand, remained the same as always: "Oh, Concubine Lan is different now that she gave birth to twins, and she is not as close to Concubine Wan as before. Before, they always talked about their childhood friendship."
His tone was sour and bitter. Seeing that Ye Bingshang was still beautiful after giving birth, he complained that God was unfair.
Mipin also said with a sour tone, "Otherwise, she would be favored. We can't learn the skills of flattering the powerful and bullying the weak and currying favor with the powerful."
Ye Bingshang waited for a while, and seeing that Zhen Huan had no intention of explaining, she sneered in her heart. She was not Shen Meizhuang, and she had no interest in taking the blame for Zhen Huan.
"I am not feeling well, and I am afraid of affecting the baby, so I have been confined to the palace to rest and take care of the baby. Now that I am out of confinement, I come to pay my respects to the Empress. I dare not delay even a little bit. It has been a while since I last saw my sister Wanpin."
What she meant was that she was considering not going out for the sake of the royal heir, but Zhen Huan could take the initiative to come to Lanqi Valley to visit her, but Zhen Huan never came once. It was naturally not her fault that they had become estranged.
Zhen Huan's lips moved twice, but in the end she did not say anything. She just glanced at Ye Bingshang with some surprise and resentment.
Sister Mei would never embarrass her in public like this in the past. Even though their relationship was not as good as before, she didn't have to be so sarcastic to her. Moreover, after her miscarriage, apart from paying her respects to the Empress, she hid in Suiyuxuan and didn't like to go out.
"Oh." Concubine Qi, who was very smart, acted as if she understood. "So it's Concubine Wan's fault. That's right. They were both punished to kneel for being pregnant. One had a miscarriage on the spot, while the other had a safe mother and child."
Then he pretended to sigh, "Alas, the same person has a different fate. Wanpin is unlucky because Prince Guo went to save Concubine Lan first."
Zhen Huan's expression became even uglier, her long nails dug into her knees tightly, and her breathing became heavier. Ye Bingshang, who was sitting next to her, pretended not to know.
"You can't say that. If someone hadn't interfered, Concubine Wan wouldn't have had a miscarriage at just four months pregnant. Don't you think so, Empress Hua?" Concubine Mi turned the gun and pointed it at Concubine Hua.
Because Nian Gengyao called away all the imperial doctors on duty on the day of her miscarriage, Concubine Mi and Fucha completely hated the Nian family. With the support of the Fucha family, Concubine Mi became much bolder.
Moreover, she was trying to show goodwill to Zhen Huan in her words and deeds, but was somewhat hostile to Ye Bingshang. After all, in Mipin's eyes, both she and Zhen Huan had miscarriages caused by Nian, and they fell out of favor after the miscarriages, so they were people with the same suffering.
Ye Bingshang felt amused. In her previous life, Concubine Mi humiliated Zhen Huan in the street and was later frightened crazy by Zhen Huan's story about human pigs. After she died of illness, she was moved to the cold palace and had a miserable end.
This time, both of them actually became the queen's people temporarily. If they knew in the future the real person who caused their miscarriage, their faces would definitely be very interesting.
When Zhen Huan heard what Concubine Mi said, she reacted. She turned around with a sullen face and looked at Concubine Hua with her dead eyes.
Concubine Hua glared at him with her beautiful eyes and said in a bad tone, "Wanpin, you had a miscarriage because you trusted Fang Jia too much. It has nothing to do with me. The imperial physician said that kneeling for half an hour is not a big deal. Concubine Lan, who was punished to kneel with you, gave birth safely."
Seeing that Zhen Huan was still unconvinced, Concubine Hua simply lost her patience and snorted, "It is Concubine Lan who is really capable. Not only did she give birth to twins, but she also made Prince Guo abandon his own eldest sister and save you first."
"Orchids are indeed more noble than mat grass. Even the princes outside the palace know this."
Ye Bingchang's breath was choked, and she thought to herself that it was not good. After being imprisoned, Concubine Hua had become smarter and knew how to divert the trouble. Whether it was true or not, it would be extremely unpleasant to spread the news that the concubine and the prince had a relationship.
Not to mention that Yinzhen was a narrow-minded person to begin with. Even his younger brother, who was a dozen years younger than him, was jealous of the fact that he was loved by the late emperor.
Ye Bingshang felt disgusted in her heart. Prince Guo and Huanbi were really up to no good. How could a grown man interfere in the affairs of the harem? Originally, as long as everyone saw her faint, would Concubine Hua still let her continue kneeling?
It's really unnecessary.
