Xia Dongchun from Legend of Zhen Huan: I want to live till the last episode

Yinzhen had dinner in the Yanx Palace, and asked the wet nurse to bring Lingyuan to play with her for a while, and then he went straight to rest in the Yanx Palace.

The next morning, everyone went to Jingren Palace to pay respects to the Queen. When the Queen saw Xia Dongchun, she showed concern and said, "Look at you. What can I say about you? It's so cold today, and it snowed yesterday. I told you not to pay respects, but you came again."

Xia Dongchun smiled and said, "Sister Chun comes to pay respects to the Empress every day, doesn't she? As a concubine, I should abide by the virtues of a concubine. I can't delay paying respects to the Empress. The Empress cares about me, and I am also thinking about her in my heart."

Concubine Chun has been pregnant for a long time, even more than Xia Dongchun. The baby in Concubine Chun's belly is already more than six months old. Under the care of Imperial Doctor Wen, the fetus is stable, which makes many people jealous.

Concubine Chun and Zhen Huan live together, so there is someone who can remind and look after her, making it difficult for those who want to harm her to do so.

After Xia Dongchun finished speaking, Concubine Chun also smiled and continued the conversation. Although she was pregnant, she still had some of her former lively personality: "Sister Zhaopin is right. I think so too."

The Queen smiled slightly and turned to look at Concubine Qi: "Concubine Qi, why do you look a little depressed? Is it because the servants below did not serve you well? Now that you are in the palace, it is different from the past at home. It's just that we are all concubines of the Emperor. If you have suffered any grievances, don't hide it. It's better to speak out. Only if you speak out can I and my sisters help you, right?"

Lady Qi thought for a long time last night and fell asleep in the second half of the night. Now she is not so reckless: "The servants below have served you very well. It's just that I didn't sleep well last night. Thank you for your concern, Queen."

Xia Dongchun glanced at Concubine Qi for a moment longer but said nothing. It seemed that Concubine Qi was not too stupid. She probably figured out why the Emperor was angry last night. Otherwise, given her personality, why wouldn't she take this opportunity to complain to the Queen?

After the Queen finished talking to Noble Lady Qi, she reminded the concubines, "The Emperor's birthday is coming soon. Sisters, please use whatever skills you have to please the Emperor. If you can win the Emperor's favor, it will be your own blessing, right?"

"Yes, we will definitely make our best preparations. Thank you, Her Majesty, for the reminder." Everyone answered in unison.

"As for Concubine Zhao and Concubine Chun, you two are pregnant, so you shouldn't work too hard. Why don't you copy a few Buddhist scriptures and send them to Baohua Palace to pray for the emperor." The queen also took special care of Xia Dongchun and Concubine Chun. Now that Concubine Nian has been removed, the queen looks much more energetic.

"Yes, thank you very much for your advice, Your Majesty." Xia Dongchun and Concubine Chun stood up again to express their gratitude.

"By the way, what the emperor means is that since entering the palace, Noble Lady Shen has always been diligent and respectful, so she is given the title of 'Hui', and is now Noble Lady Hui. Noble Lady Borjigit is also gentle and diligent, so she is given the title of 'Qing', and is now Noble Lady Qing." The queen first looked at Shen Meizhuang and Noble Lady Borjigit.

After the two of them stood up to thank him, he turned to Concubine Chun, Xia Dongchun, and Concubine Xin, and said, "Concubine Chun has been in the palace for quite some time. The Emperor and I have always liked you very much. In addition, you are pregnant now. The Emperor wants to promote you to Concubine after the New Year. As for Concubine Zhao, you have always been respectful and have given birth to a princess for the Emperor. Now you are pregnant again. The Emperor wants to promote you to Concubine for the time being, but you will be given the title of Concubine in the future. As for Concubine Xin, she is also an old lady who has served the Emperor. She will also be promoted to Concubine after the New Year."

Xia Dongchun, Xin Changzai and Chun Guiren stood up: "Yes, thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty."

After saying this, the Queen's eyes were drawn to Concubine Xiang. She frowned and asked, "Concubine Xiang, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so listless?"

Xiangpin looked a little dazed, but she answered the queen's words after being reminded by her maid: "Your Majesty, I don't think I have had enough rest these days, so I am not in good spirits. I have asked the imperial physician to see me, and he said there is nothing serious."

The queen did not ask any more questions and just let them go back.

After returning to the Yanxi Palace and dismissing the others, Yun Ling was puzzled: "Your Majesty, it is reasonable to promote you at this time, and there is nothing wrong with it. Why is the emperor willing to give you the title of concubine instead of directly promoting you?"

There was a charcoal fire burning in the room, providing plenty of warmth. Unlike the icy and snowy outside, the decoration in the room was exquisite and elegant. Although it was not completely luxurious, it was something that many lower-ranking concubines envied.

There was a soft blanket on the beauty couch. Xia Dongchun was leaning on the couch, holding a hot water bottle filled with hot water in her hand, and did not speak for a long time.

Yun Ling thought that her master was really angry, and she couldn't help but worry. She was about to say something else when she heard Xia Dongchun speak.

"Now, only one of the four concubines is vacant, which means that among all of us, only one person can be promoted to the position of concubine. As for the emperor's favoritism, although I can be ranked higher than everyone in the harem, I am still not as good as Zhen Huan." Xia Dongchun knew that Yinzhen had treated her well since she entered the palace. The greatest neglect she had ever suffered was not seeing Yinzhen for a month.

But think about Concubine Qi and the others, they couldn't even see Yinzhen for months. The most they met was during the various festivals and family dinners.

Compared to this, Xia Dongchun's situation is already better than most people.

But Xia Dongchun also knew that Yinzhen's favorite person now was still Zhen Huan.

"The Emperor wants to promote Zhen Huan to be a concubine, but he knows that if we really compare the qualifications, Zhen Huan has no children, but I have Ling Yuan, and now I am pregnant. We are both concubines. If we don't consider favoritism and only consider the rules, I should be promoted. So he had to give me the share of the concubine, and then it will be easy to promote Zhen Huan to be a concubine."

After Xia Dongchun finished speaking, she sighed. She was not really angry because even if she was angry it would be useless and would only affect her mood.
