The queen has four sons and six daughters, and she can call the wind and rain

When she got up early to pay her respects, Concubine He knew that she was ill. She immediately prepared some supplements when she returned and brought Princess Jianping to visit her.

Seeing her pale and weak face, He Fei's heart instantly tightened.

"Sister An, why are you so seriously ill?"

"Have you asked the imperial physician to take a look? What did the imperial physician say?"

Concubine An waved her hand and sighed softly.

"I have a heart disease, and I need to use heart medicine to treat it."

"Heart disease?"

He Fei was stunned for a moment.

"Why are you suffering from a heart disease?"

"Is it because of what happened some time ago?"

Seeing that Concubine He had reacted, Concubine An smiled inwardly, but her face looked even more melancholy.

"Yes, it's because of that incident."

"It has been seven years since Queen Zhou passed away, and the seat of the Imperial Palace has also been vacant for seven years."

"Now that the eldest prince, the second prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince have all grown up, and the princes below are also growing up day by day, we must appoint a crown prince."

"Since we are going to appoint a crown prince, the position of queen cannot remain vacant."

"But there are so many people in the harem, but only a few meet the requirements."

"According to the position, the one who should be made queen is the Imperial Noble Consort, but the Imperial Noble Consort is good in everything except her family background, so the ministers all prefer me."

"But ever since the ministers spoke, the Imperial Concubine has become distant from me. Some time ago, she took advantage of my discomfort, found a few faults, and took back all the power to assist in the management of the six palaces."

"I'm really scared now. If the Imperial Concubine uses this incident to punish me, I'll be dead without a burial place."

"And sister, can you help me?"

"How do you want me to help you, Sister An?"

"I will have someone prepare some things later, and have my sister and I deliver them to Qingning Palace for me and give them to the Imperial Concubine. I will also tell her that I will never compete with her for the position of Queen, and ask her to have mercy on me and not take my life while I am sick."

Princess Jianping frowned and was about to open her mouth to object when she saw Concubine He nodded.

She suddenly felt helpless.

My mother is good in every way except that she is too kind and easily believes what others say.

Especially Concubine An.

She thought that she and Concubine An had known each other for many years and had a very good relationship, so she would do whatever Concubine An asked her to do without thinking about the reasons behind it.

He would not be on guard against Concubine An.

Forget it, having met such a mother, she could only accept her fate.

She could only worry more when something happened, so as to prevent her mother from being plotted against, which would not only cost her her life but also implicate her and Xiaoliu.

It will be too late to regret by then.

Concubine He stayed with Concubine An for half a day until the afternoon when Concubine An drank the medicine and fell into a deep sleep. Then Concubine He took the things and went to Qingning Palace.

There was chaos in Qingning Palace.

The Sixth Princess took the Seventh Princess to visit the Ninth Prince. Seeing that the Ninth Prince was asleep with thick eyebrows and big eyes, the Sixth Princess took a pair of scissors and cut off all of his eyebrows and eyelashes. Then they met Little Grape who was ordered to visit the Ninth Prince. When she saw that the two girls were doing something bad, she immediately grabbed their ears and pulled them out.

It was the Sixth Princess who made the decision and it was also the Sixth Princess who took action. The Seventh Princess was simply dragged into it by her and had no time to stop her when she took action, so the Sixth Princess was the only one who was punished.

Yun Zhining was pregnant and could not run, so she gave this glorious and arduous task to Xiao Pu Tao.

Although the Sixth Princess often got into trouble, she was not stupid. When she saw that she was about to be beaten, she certainly would not stand there obediently and wait to be beaten foolishly. When she saw Little Grape taking out a broom to hit her, she ran away immediately.

It's funny to say that the Sixth Princess did not inherit Qi Yejing's intelligence, but she inherited his natural talent. She is very proficient in martial arts. At a young age, her lightness skills have caught up with Xiao Pu Tao.

She used her Qinggong skills to run around on the roof, and Little Grape chased after her with a broom. The palace maids and eunuchs all put down their work and watched the cat and mouse game.

“Ahhh, Niangniang, Second Sister, help!”

Seeing someone coming, the Sixth Princess rushed over like a rocket, hid behind Princess Jianping, and trembled.

Little Grape jumped down from the roof holding a broom, his hair standing on end with anger.

"Qi Yeshi, get out here!"

"I don't want it, you'll beat me."

The Sixth Princess shook her head frantically and grabbed Princess Jianping's clothes and refused to let go.

"Second sister, you must save me, otherwise, I will really be beaten to death by my eldest sister."

Princess Jianping glanced at her and said helplessly.

"What bad thing have you done again?"

The Sixth Princess chuckled and said with a guilty conscience.

"When I went to the study this morning, I complained to Ah Zhang that my eyebrows and eyelashes were not as long as my eldest sister and third sister's. Then Ah Zhang said that when he was a child, his sister was jealous of his long eyebrows and eyelashes, so she cut them off with a pair of scissors. As a result, when he grew up, his eyebrows became thicker and his eyelashes became longer, which made his sister even angrier."

"So I took a pair of small scissors and cut Xiaojiu's eyebrows and eyelashes to see if they will grow longer in the future?"

"Unfortunately, I had just finished my haircut and I turned around and ran into the older sister, and then, ..."

tragedy!

"You really are..."

What an expert at courting death!

Princess Jianping sighed silently. Just as she was about to say a few words to defend her, she received a death stare from Little Putao.

Her heart skipped a beat and she quickly snatched the corner of the clothes from the Sixth Princess. Then she quietly moved aside, revealing the Sixth Princess behind her.

Princess Six: |???|

"Second sister, what are you doing?"

Princess Jianping shrugged helplessly.

"I dare not offend my elder sister, so you better pray for the best."

Little Grape snorted coldly.

"You know the truth."

"Qi Yeshi, your protector has left, so you better come here and accept the punishment. If you delay any further, don't blame me for increasing the punishment."

"dream!"

The Sixth Princess made a face at Little Putao and quickly hid behind Concubine He.

Little Grape dared to threaten Princess Jianping with her eyes, but she did not dare to be disrespectful to Concubine He. She could only put away the broom and speak in a friendly manner.

"The Empress is making such a big scene. I think she must be discussing something very important with Mother. Jianping, why don't you take the Empress in?"

"Then you just need to teach the Sixth Princess a lesson, but don't hurt her."

Little Grape smiled sinisterly.

"Don't worry, Madam. I will not hurt her, and I will teach her a very unforgettable lesson."

"Row."

Concubine He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the Sixth Princess with a smile.

"It's okay. Go back with your elder sister first. Don't run around anymore and make your mother worry."

The Sixth Princess nodded, but cursed Little Grape in her heart.

As soon as Little Grape saw her expression, she knew she was scolding her, but she didn't take it to heart.

After watching Concubine He and Princess Jianping go in, she dragged the Sixth Princess into her bedroom.

After a while, a heart-wrenching scream was heard from the hall.

The Sixth Princess covered her eyebrows and eyelashes, tears streaming down her face.

"Qi Yexi, you are too cruel. I will go and complain to my father and mother. I will go to Xiaohe Palace to complain to my grandmother and tell her that you bullied me. I want her to seek justice for me!"

Little Grape turned the scissors in her hand, raised her hand and waved it, and the scissors were firmly inserted into the wall. It took a lot of effort to pull them out.

The Sixth Princess hugged her body and trembled, her words stuttering a little.

"You, what do you want to do?"

"I warn you, don't do anything rash, or else mother will definitely not let you go."

"Okay, stop howling."

Little Grape glared at her and said unhappily.

"That's all for this time, but you'd better behave yourself and not do this again. Otherwise, next time I'll cut your hair instead of your eyebrows and eyelashes."

"If a princess loses her hair and becomes a nun, people outside will definitely laugh at her."

Little Grape was deliberately trying to scare her, wanting her to stay well-behaved for some time and not go out and cause trouble. But the Sixth Princess thought that Little Grape was really going to shave her head and make her a nun, so she cried even louder.

In the main hall, Yun Zhining pressed her brows and sighed helplessly.

"I don't think I'm a troublemaker, so how could I have such an enemy?"

"All you do is make trouble all day long."

"She is more difficult to manage than four children."

He Fei covered her mouth and smiled.

"A dragon gives birth to nine sons, each of them is different. Besides, you have given birth to six children so far. Little Grape is smart, Wan'er is gentle, the Seventh Princess is gifted, the Ninth Prince is lively and cute, and Jun'er is mature and steady. You have almost taken all the good children. You must find a little enemy to give you a headache, otherwise, how can the rest of us live?"

Yun Zhining curled the corners of her mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Okay, let's stop talking about her and talk about you."

"Did you just come back from Changyuan Palace? How is Concubine An?"

When this matter was mentioned, He Fei instantly became nervous and spoke haltingly.

"Sister An Fei is seriously ill. In addition to the physical illness, the more important one is the psychological illness."

“Physical illnesses are easy to treat, but mental illnesses require mental medicine.”

"Why would Concubine An be so worried?"

"Could it be that..."

"Does this mental illness have anything to do with me?"

He Fei's face turned red, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

Yun Zhining sighed softly.

"Okay, if you have anything to say, just say it."

If the questioning continues, Concubine He will have to flee in panic.

Seeing that Yun Zhining did not pursue her, He Fei spoke in a low voice.

"Didn't Her Majesty ask the people of the Clothing Department to make the empress's wedding dress some time ago? She also said that the size should be made according to Concubine An's. In addition, people in the court have been asking the emperor to make Concubine An the empress recently, so Concubine An thought that the emperor wanted to make her the empress."

"But apart from her family background, she is not comparable to you, my queen, so I feel guilty and have not been able to sleep well recently, fearing that you, my queen, have become estranged from her because of this."

"So, she prepared some things and asked me to deliver them to you personally. I hope you won't become estranged from her because of this matter."

"Let's not talk about whether she can be crowned as the queen successfully. Even if she really becomes the queen of Daye and the master of the six palaces in the future, she will not go against you."

"She only hopes to work with you to manage the harem and help the emperor share his worries."

"Are you willing to live in harmony with her?"

Yun Zhining did not answer her, but asked an unrelated question.

"When you gave birth to the Sixth Prince, you took too many supplements during pregnancy, and your body was weak, so you had a difficult delivery. Didn't Concubine An help you investigate this matter? Did you get any results?"

Concubine He frowned, not understanding what she was talking about, but Princess Jianping's face suddenly turned ugly.

Although it was only a moment, Yun Zhining already got the answer she wanted.

Concubine He was really lucky. Although she was silly, she gave birth to a daughter who was smart but not too conspicuous.

She couldn't think about it anymore, otherwise, she really wouldn't be able to resist exchanging Xiaoliu for Princess Jianping.

"Okay, okay, it's just a small matter, but it's not worth you being so cautious."

"I'll accept the gifts. Go back and tell Concubine An to take good care of herself and don't worry about anything else."

Concubine He did not understand the implication of her words. She just thought that no matter what happened in the future, Yun Zhining would live in peace with Concubine An. She could finally put down the heavy stone in her heart, and her expression became much more relaxed.

"In that case, I will take my leave now. My lady, have a good rest. I will come back to see you in a few days."

"etc,……"

Just as Concubine He was about to get up and say goodbye, she was stopped by Princess Jianping.

"Mother, we rarely have time to visit the Imperial Concubine at Qingning Palace. We can't just say a few words, put our things down and leave."

"We'll be bored after we go back anyway, so why don't we stay in Qingning Palace for a while and play mahjong with the Imperial Concubine to kill some time."

"Besides, I want to eat the mutton hotpot made by the small kitchen in Qingning Palace."

After being reminded by Princess Jianping, Concubine He realized that she was a little snobbish and nodded quickly.

"Okay, okay. I have nothing to do today, so I'll play mahjong with the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Concubine won't think I'm stupid and won't want me anymore, right?"

"Of course not. I'm so happy that you're so eager to give me money."

Seeing that Yun Zhining was not angry with Concubine He, Princess Jianping breathed a sigh of relief.

The Imperial Concubine worries about her daughter all day long, and she worries about her mother all day long. They can be said to be a difficult pair.

She used to envy Little Putao for having such a smart and resourceful mother, and even thought about exchanging places with the Sixth Princess. But then she thought, her mother wasn't very smart to begin with, and if she was killed she wouldn't know who the murderer was. She couldn't just watch her own mother get killed and do nothing.

What’s the difference between that and animals?

There were only three people including Yun Zhining, He Fei and her daughter, so she pulled Xiao Pu Tao over to help.

After three rounds, He Fei felt uncomfortable in her stomach and wanted to go to the toilet. Yun Zhining was worried that she would get lost, so she asked Xiao Pu Tao to accompany her.

As soon as Concubine He left, Princess Jianping knelt down.
