The wives of the concubines are empresses

The clothes that Sun Yuewei had someone prepare were a simple and gentle purple dress. Except for the dragon embroidery on the belt, the outer shirt and the dress were plain.

When she just returned to the palace, Shangguan Wanjun didn't want to wear heavy headdress.

"Just put it in a bun and put on a headband of the same color."

Sun Yuewei bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

She also learned that her sister Liuli was assigned as an official when Ming Guifu's concubine came back, and she also learned a few days ago that she had been promoted to the ninth rank personal female official.

Originally, the hair bun was the responsibility of Sister Lianhua and others, and it was not her turn as a newly promoted female official. However, the emperor asked them to eat something to fill their stomachs, so she was temporarily arranged to do the empress's hair. Fortunately, she had learned it before, otherwise she would not be able to take on such an important task as doing the empress's hair.

The headband that Sun Yuewei chose for the empress was also a plain purple headband, which matched the dress perfectly.

Shangguan Wanjun's earrings are also made of purple jadeite of the same color, with long tassels and the jadeite in the shape of raindrops, which looks small, delicate, noble and elegant.

Because there was hair on both sides of her bun, Shangguan Wanjun's originally round cheeks looked much smaller with the tassel earrings.

"Your Majesty, I will select a purple jade bracelet for you. It will go perfectly with your outfit."

"it is good."

After she put on the purple jade ring on her hand, Zhao Yunfan, the concubine who had been prepared first, slowly reached out to Shangguan Wanjun.

"Your Majesty, let's go to the main hall to meet them first."

"Let's go."

In the main hall of the Dragon's Bedroom, the civil and military emperors sat on both sides of the main seat in the middle, drinking tea and eating snacks while waiting for the arrival of the empress.

Liu Cheng followed his two masters and shouted as he entered the main hall.

"The Emperor has arrived!"

Upon hearing this, all the concubines and palace maids knelt down to greet him.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live the Emperor."

Concubine Fan's husband - Zhao Yunfan helped Shangguan Wanjun sit down in the main seat, and then stepped back and stood in his own seat at the bottom.

"My dear husbands, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

All the concubines sat down one by one, including the two new concubines in the harem. Shangguan Wanjun looked up and saw that they were all heads. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

The only emperor who has had a concubine in the harem so far is probably her, especially since it has lasted for seven years. In her opinion, she can be considered a wise ruler.

Mu Xiang stepped forward and reported to Shangguan Wanjun, "Your Majesty, lunch is ready, but please move to the dining hall now."

Shangguan Wanjun smiled gently and nodded: "Okay."

Seeing this, Lianhua hurriedly reached out her hand. Shangguan Wanjun stood up, put her hand on the back of her hand, and walked towards the dining hall.

As soon as she entered the dining hall, the aroma of food hit her nose. Shangguan Wanjun, who had slept well but not eaten yet, felt like she was about to become dizzy from the aroma.

The concubines waited until Shangguan Wanjun was seated before they took their seats one by one in order.

Looking at the sumptuous and delicious food, Shangguan Wanjun smiled and asked with concern.

"Has it been sent to the Queen Mother?"

Bai Xuanyi, the noble husband of Emperor Wen, replied, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has already had lunch and should be taking a nap by now."

"Mother has eaten early today, everyone, please start eating."

Seeing the Emperor Wu's noble husband - Propaganda Style, Shangguan Wanjun smiled gently at her.

"Send the message, give me a bowl of pumpkin and mung bean soup to cool down after the long journey."

"it is good."

Seeing that no one was moving, Shangguan Wanjun quickly spoke.

"Everyone, come on, don't be shy. If you want to cool down, you can have a bowl of pumpkin and mung bean soup."

Everyone nodded quickly when they heard this.

Halfway through the meal, Shangguan Wanjun suddenly yawned and everyone looked at her.

"That's really strange. I've been sleeping for quite a while, why am I still yawning?"

As soon as she said this, the concubines, female officials and others were all stunned, and then many people speculated whether the empress was pregnant.

The concubines who have been in the palace for many years and have experience have begun to speculate whose child the empress is pregnant with.

The emperor clearly said that we are not considering having children in the next few months, but who would secretly break the rules and not be afraid of the emperor's blame?

Ou He suggested worriedly, "Your Majesty, why don't you summon the imperial physician to take a look?"

"Yawning and calling the Imperial Physician? I'm afraid we'll be laughed at. Besides, don't we have a ready-made one here?"

Lianhua immediately looked at Yu Jun's husband, Lin Xueyu: "Yu Jun's husband, please take the emperor's pulse."

Yu Junfu - Lin Xueyu stood up and walked to Shangguan Wanjun, bent down and took her pulse.

Yu Junfu - Lin Xueyu carefully took the empress's pulse for a long time and found that she was in good health. He released her hand and bowed to report.

"Your Majesty, you are in very good health."

"That's good, let's go back and continue eating."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

There were too many people, so Yu Junfu and Lin Xueyu had to dine at the second table.

There are at least fifteen people at each table here. Except for the two concubines who are away and Ming Guifu - Liu Haiming, who is on duty at the Jingzhao Yin Mansion, all the others are here, totaling five tables of people.

When the concubines heard what Yu Junfu, Lin Xueyu, said, they all breathed a sigh of relief, especially General Nan Shaoan who had just returned and the concubines of lower ranks in the harem.

They had waited so long for the Empress to return, but they didn't want to hear the news that she was pregnant. Wouldn't that mean they would have to stay alone in their empty room for months and continue to be widows without meat? How unfair it would be to them.

When General Nan Shaoan heard what Yu Junfu - Lin Xueyu said, he began to imagine in his mind how he would make love with the emperor that night.

Faced with the relaxed expressions on everyone's faces, Shangguan Wanjun remained calm and lowered her head to continue drinking her pumpkin and mung bean soup. This was her second bowl.

The old pumpkin and mung bean soup was prepared earlier and set aside. It was just cooled down by the time they drank it, which was just right in this hot summer.

After Shangguan Wanjun had eaten and drunk her fill, she yawned several times in a row. She kept tilting her head and covering her mouth. She wanted to go back to sleep because of the yawns.

"Muxiang, help me get some ice to wake me up."

Mu Xiang looked up in shock: "Ah."

Shangguan Wanjun urged, "Go."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Bai Xuanyi, the noble husband of Emperor Wen, was a little worried: "Your Majesty, why don't you go back to sleep for a while?"

She looks so sleepy, just like her previous two pregnancies. Is she really not pregnant?

Is it because the month is too small to be seen?

Faced with his suggestion, Shangguan Wanjun shook her head.

"No, if I sleep any longer I won't be able to sleep tonight. I have to go to court tomorrow morning." Thinking of going to court, Shangguan Wanjun's face darkened.

It was time to start her clocking in for court again, early in the morning. It was really hard for her.

At night, her husbands took turns sleeping with her, and she had to get up early in the morning to attend court. She was so miserable that she couldn't express it in words.

Fortunately, I was smart before and didn't let her go to court every day, otherwise she would go crazy sooner or later.

The concubines watched Shangguan Wanjun's expression change like the unpredictable weather, and couldn't help but wonder what she was thinking.

Wu Huangyoufu - Propaganda Style Seeing Shangguan Wanjun pursed her lips tightly, and then gritted her teeth, he was stunned.
