My heart hurts when I mention the abolition

Chen Yizhen was leaning on the recliner, frowning in a daze, beside Shuangshu, Shuanglu, Zhengmao, and Wumama walking back and forth, busy all the time.

Madam Zheng was still muttering: "Your Majesty's body is not as usual, the charcoal fire for the winter should have been distributed earlier, and I'll ask Xiao Yuanzi to go to the Siwu Supervisor to inform me later."

She said it as if it was a matter of course.

There are only a few serious masters in the harem. At this time, all the masters are probably focused on Chen Yizhen's fetus, not to mention the trivial matter of getting charcoal fire earlier, even if Chen Yizhen wants to eat lychees in winter, he has to do everything possible to get them in the palace.

Nanny Wu followed suit and nodded, "There are also the autumn clothes I made a few days ago, and I will have to re-measure the size and make them again."

Shuang Shu simply suggested, "It's better to call the people from the needlework bureau tomorrow, and we can make winter clothes together."

Madam Zheng shook her head, expressing her disapproval, "Your Majesty's belly will be different every day, and the clothes you make today may not be wearable tomorrow, so you can make them for your Majesty at any time."

As she spoke, she did not forget to ask the empress for her opinion, "What do you think, empress?"

Chen Yizhen recovered, with a puzzled look on her face, apparently not listening to what they said, but for a moment, before Madam Zheng could explain the question, she lowered her eyes, half asking others and half talking to herself to answer irrelevant questions :

"Tell me, what did the emperor want to say before he left?"

Nanny Zheng and Nanny Wu looked at each other, were silent for a while, shook their heads, and said with a smile, "How can this servant guess what the emperor is thinking."

She asked cautiously, "My lady, what did you tell the emperor?"

The two of them had been whispering in the room for so long before, and the empress was crying and laughing at other times. The servants who were serving them were really terrified and frightened when they heard it outside.

Chen Yizhen raised his eyes, paused, and shook his head, "It's nothing."

After finishing speaking, she suddenly felt tired, so she supported her forehead and waved her hand to let everyone get down.

Madam Zheng and the others bent down and respectfully answered yes.

When everyone respectfully backed down, Shuangshu could vaguely hear the empress talking to herself: What exactly does the emperor want to say...

Chen Yizhen thought about it for two days but couldn't figure it out, but the emperor shook his head when he left that night and didn't say anything, and of course he wouldn't tell her afterwards, so after three or four days, she didn't think about it and put it behind her.

Anyway, according to the emperor's attitude, it shouldn't be a big deal.

In this way, in the blink of an eye, a month is fleeting.

The news of the emperor's happiness finally reached the ears of the aristocratic family slowly.

According to customary etiquette, one cannot make a public announcement three months before the wedding, otherwise the child will be frightened, and would not want to be reincarnated into this family. Therefore, even though the Queen Mother's wedding is a great joyous event for the whole country, the ancestors were afraid that something might happen, so they did not He didn't dare to say anything, and called all the people who knew about it, and ordered him to strictly prevent the news from leaking out.

The fact that the aristocratic family can know the news after one month is that they are doing well.

The moment they heard the news, their faces were stunned, and they subconsciously reacted: It must be fake.

The emperor and the empress have been married for three years, and slept together for three years without being able to conceive. Now that the Chen family has finally fallen, even if the emperor's attitude towards the empress changes later, it will only be more than a year, and the empress will be happy?

Later, he realized that this was a major matter related to the royal blood, and the royal family was more cautious than them, and there was absolutely no possibility of mistakes.

So, that is to say, the news is true.

Dazed and confused, I can't believe it. Afterwards, full of grief, anger and jealousy, grief and anger at the fact that my family has no one in the harem, let alone an emperor's heir, and even more jealousy of the Chen family.

The Chen family saved the world in their previous life, that's why they have such a good life. The crime comparable to rebellion has been brought down. Because the queen in the palace was only expelled from the official position by the emperor to search for most of the family property, she will be fine. Buy a house in the west of the capital to recuperate with peace of mind, and you can go to the palace to connect with the queen if you have nothing to do. Even now, the queen is pregnant smoothly.

They didn't insist too much on the draft at the beginning, firstly because the emperor was firm and obviously not the master who listened to their persuasion, and secondly because the empress was not easy to conceive.

The empress hadn't conceived in the three years since she entered the palace. They all speculated that the empress probably had a health problem, otherwise the Chen family must be more eager than they are to have a child to guarantee their status. How could the empress have no children for so long.

Therefore, they compromised and bowed their heads, because they firmly believed that even if the emperor insisted on not drafting at this time, but one year, two years, or even three years passed, and the queen was still barren, could he still insist on not drafting?

Even if he insisted, neither the ancestors nor the empress dowager would agree.

They have made a good plan, but how long has it been since the draft was proposed? Has it been half a year?

Could it be that God destined the Chen family to rise?

After intense grief, resentment and jealousy, it is full of resentment and unwillingness, why, why can't this kind of encounter be our turn?

For a moment, they looked in the direction of the Chen family in a daze.

He Fu.

Ever since she learned the news of the queen's pregnancy, He Yourong sat in front of the dressing table, staring blankly at the blurred face in the mirror. After a long time, she slowly raised her hand, and slowly traced it with two fingers. The corners of the eyebrows and the corners of the eyes, the pretty nose and the pink lips, this delicate and painting-like face has always been her capital of pride.

But the draft half a year ago broke her reserved and natural self-confidence for a while, and now, all the remaining pride has been ruthlessly wiped away by fate.

She closed her eyes, her lips trembled violently, and two tears gradually fell from the corners of her eyes.

Outside the room, a maidservant in a pretty blue dress and with two buns was walking back and forth anxiously, stretching her long neck for a while, peeking inside, then retracting her head, shaking her head and sighing mournfully.

She is He Yourong's personal servant girl, and there are also countless servant girls in the entire family, but during this period of time, to be precise, since the draft turmoil, her eyebrows have not been opened. As a girl's personal servant girl, she He is closer to He Yourong than others, and understands her delusional thoughts better.

According to her, her daughter is good at everything, even the one in the palace is worthy of her, but how to say that, a good plan is worse than fate.

No matter how much you think about it, her girl has no life!well!

She frowned, staring at her toes in a daze, with countless thoughts tossing and turning in her mind, suddenly, there seemed to be a little movement inside.

As soon as she moved her body, she immediately leaned over and pressed against the door tightly. Sure enough, it wasn't her hearing hallucinations, there was indeed movement from inside, and it was no longer silent.

Before she could bend her lips in surprise, she heard the girl's calm voice, as if nothing had happened.

Tell her to go in.

"Hey!" She opened the curtain and walked in.

"Girl?" She stood obediently behind, half-closed her eyes and cautiously looked at the girl's back.

The girl's black braids are so black and smooth. To be precise, there is nothing delicate and imperfect about the girl's body, she looks like a beauty worthy of entering the palace, but it's a pity, a pity.

"Go and tell your mother," He Yourong's voice came again, her voice paused for a moment, but only for a moment, then she continued in a calm and steady manner.

"Tell my mother, I will accept the post from the Lin family."

The servant girl slowly opened her mouth and stared blankly at the girl's silent back. Suddenly, her eyes blurred, and the girl's figure gradually blurred.

She suddenly lowered her head, half surprised and half sad, raised her hand to wipe the moisture from her face.

Why is she crying?Why is she crying?Why, feel so sad?Again, who are you sorry for?

Standing here, she seems to be vaguely aware of the unspeakable bitterness that the girl is full of. Her girl, she has finally learned to accept her fate, learn to bow to reality, and finally let go of her crazy and absurd thoughts.

Lowering her head slightly, she responded hoarsely, "Yes, girl."

The post from the Lin family is to visit the eldest daughter-in-law for the eldest son of his family.

He Yourong was in a daze, unknowingly let go of her hand, the veil fell silently, and her body fell down as if she had lost all her strength.

------

It may be that the month is shallow, or it may be because of good care. It is more likely that this child is a trouble-free child. Chen Yizhen is more than one month pregnant, but he seems to have nothing to do. He should eat, drink, and sleep. .

Seeing this, the ancestor couldn't help but hold her hand and praised repeatedly, "Knowing that he loves his mother shows that he is a filial child."

Princess Wei Le opened her eyes wide curiously, "Will your stomach grow bigger every day if you have Xi?"

Even the empress dowager expressed her concern tactfully, "It is a good thing that there is no abnormality, but a happy empress likes to eat spicy and sour things. Don't you deliberately suppress this matter for the sake of the queen's dignity and face. go down."

Princess Wei Le tugged at her sleeve angrily, "Mother!!"

Chen Yizhen turned his head, ignored the empress dowager's hidden concern, and talked to his ancestor with a smile.

She is not stupid, knowing that what the empress dowager does is for the child in her womb, her own grandson, she is grateful to her for the child, but from her standpoint, they will never be a harmonious mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for the rest of their lives.

In a blink of an eye, September arrived.

Back at the Changchun Palace, hearing Shuanglu accidentally mentioning that today is the fourth day of September, Chen Yizhen pursed his lips, walked to the window silently, and stared silently for a long time.

Shuangshu pulled Shuanglu out, slapped her hard twice, and said angrily: "You say you, can you control your mouth, don't you know how many disasters your mouth has caused?"

Shuanglu was aggrieved, "What's wrong with me? I just mentioned what month it is today, what's the matter?"

"What's the matter?" Shuang Shu hated iron for being weak, "Could it be that you forgot when Qiu Gui was?"

Shuanglu's eyes widened suddenly, "September, the end of September."

"I know you still say it!" Shuangshu covered her heart and cried out that her chest hurts, "You know that your mother has been worrying about the matter of the young master, and she finally forgot about it in the past few days, but you actually brought it up again. You are afraid that the empress will not remember, the empress is still pregnant, if one is in a bad mood and becomes pregnant, what do you have to apologize for?"

Shuang Lu's big round eyes stared straight behind her, "I, I..."

"What me!" Shuangshu turned her head subconsciously, and then, she caught a glimpse of a bright yellow dress from the corner of her eyes, her heart was startled, she didn't even have time to think, she knelt down on the ground with a "plop", her voice was terrified, "See, see Your Majesty. "

The emperor's voice has not been heard from above for a long time, Shuangshu's heart is beating non-stop, panic and anxiety, and a little bit of complaint, all blame Shuanglu, who has no brains, and I don't know how much the emperor listened to their conversations There will be no misunderstanding with the empress, the empress absolutely has no intention of making decisions for the family and going against the emperor's wishes.

Thoughts were running through her mind one after another, and Shuangshu couldn't help straightening her back carefully, and explained tremblingly, "Go back to the emperor, slave girl, slave girl was just teaching Shuanglu a lesson, Shuanglu's words were too careless, slave girl was afraid that she would Provoking, provoking troubles and causing difficulties for the empress, so, then, I specially brought them out to give instructions."

She originally wanted to say that it made the empress sad, but then she thought about it, would the emperor be more caring? It was because he cared that he was sad. He prevented Chen Weixue from participating in the imperial examination, which would make the empress sad. Isn't that right? The empress cared about the Chen family, and was dissatisfied with the emperor. As a superior person, she always had more brains than others and thought more. Who can guarantee that the emperor would not think too much. Fortunately, she turned around quickly and stopped changing her words in time.

After a long time, the emperor finally made a sound, but he just "hummed" lightly, then turned and entered the room.

Rong Sheng hurriedly beckoned them to get up, winked at them, "Quickly back off, order everyone to back off, don't go in and disturb, the emperor has something to say to the empress."

As he said that, he turned around first and went to find Mr. Pei.

Shuangshu was stunned for a while, staggered to his feet, stared at the direction Rong Sheng turned and left in a daze, Shuanglu walked over anxiously, "Shuangshu..."

Shuangshu finally came back to her senses, and couldn't help but give her a blank look, "Quickly back off with me."

Inside the room, Chen Yizhen stood up in surprise when he saw the emperor coming in, "Why is no one speaking?"

The emperor explained, "I didn't let them say anything, but let them all back down."

Chen Yizhen greeted him, helped him take off his hat, and put it aside, the emperor nestled into the soft couch with her, hugged her, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen Yizhen feels that the emperor has something on his mind, even though she can't see it on the surface, she has been with the emperor day and night for more than four years, not to mention that she has been extremely close in the past year, even doing the most intimate things, and she can't see it anymore Whether he is in a good mood or not, she is really living in vain.

She thought that if the emperor was willing to speak, then she would be willing to listen, so she nestled in the emperor's arms and did not say a word for a while.

The Changchun Palace was exceptionally quiet.

After a long time, the emperor moved his body, and Chen Yizhen's heart ached, coming, coming, what could happen?

"Today is the fourth day of September."

As soon as he opened his mouth, the emperor said such a sentence.

Chen Yizhen was stunned, and after a while, she lowered her eyes, her beating heart slowly calmed down, like a small fish returning to calm, holding back its fluttering fish tail, the transparent small pool of her heart quieted down in a short while. Silent and silent.

She thought, she knew what the emperor wanted to say.

The emperor looked down at her, at her fair and delicate face, her slightly pursed lips, and her half-drooped eyes that made it difficult to see the emotions inside.

He opened his mouth, "Queen." He closed it again, seemed to struggle for a while, and finally opened it slowly again, "I am willing to listen to you."

This matter will be discussed sooner or later, he doesn't want her to conceive their child in a lonely and depressed mood.

Chen Yizhen bit her lip, and a guilty look slowly appeared on her face, "Your Majesty, I'm sorry."

She finally chose the Chen family, the emperor smiled wryly, but his eyes touched her belly, and his eyes were slow and soft, no matter what, he heard her thoughts before, and it was enough for her to have him in her heart.

"Chenqie, Chenqie intends to let Chen Weixue take the recommendation route." Chen Yizhen suddenly raised his head, staring at him with bright and round eyes, and the tension and guilt in his heart can be seen at a glance.

"The concubine really can't turn a blind eye to his family members. The cousin, the cousin is not a person who pursues power. His lifelong ideal is to be an official and benefit the people. Therefore, the concubine wants to recommend him as a county official. make."

As she spoke, her voice gradually became weaker, and her fingers unconsciously grabbed the corner of the emperor's clothes and turned them around, which was a subconscious movement when she was nervous.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty." Chen Yizhen lowered his head after finishing the last sentence.

The emperor was already in a daze, after a long time, he stretched out his hand with trembling eyelashes, and hugged Chen Yizhen.

Chen Yizhen: Huh? ?

The emperor's head was sunken deep into her clothes, and her breath was filled between his nostrils, and his whole heart seemed to be poured with hot water, warm and radiant.

The queen actually chose him!

There are two main ways to become an official in the current dynasty. One is the official imperial examination, which is also the only way for most high-ranking officials. The other is recommendation, which is an opportunity for those high-ranking officials. It is very rare, and the most important thing is that this way may only be a fifth or sixth rank official in a lifetime, so unless it is absolutely necessary, no one will choose to recommend this way.

Of course, those shady royals and nobles are another way of saying it.

But the queen, after balancing him and the Chen family, actually chose such a path. Although Chen Weixue could still be made an official, but after all, he was born in an unorthodox imperial examination, and he might not be able to find an official position in his life.

Everything she worries about is because of him!

The emperor couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth, "I am willing to give Chen Weixue a chance."

Chen Yizhen suddenly opened his eyes wide, pushed away from his embrace, with a look of disbelief, and asked in a daze, "Your Majesty, did my concubine hear correctly?"

Speaking of the words that had been prepared, the emperor felt no sourness or sadness anymore, and he even pinched her nose in a good mood, "Of course I heard correctly, I agree with him to take the imperial examination."

Chen Yizhen bit her lip, in a daze, after a long while, her eyes suddenly turned red, tears ran out in the blink of an eye, her voice trembling, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, my concubine, my concubine..."

She really didn't know what to say, the emperor was so kind to her and the Chen family!

The emperor smiled warmly, but for a moment, his face became straight and serious, "I agree with him to take the imperial examination, but it doesn't mean that I will reuse him, Ah Zhen, I want to be honest with you, it is very likely that he will never be able to do it in his life." Go back to Beijing official."

Even if it is released outside, he will not let him achieve the position of a first- and second-rank member.

Chen Yizhen covered his mouth, tears rolled down, and he couldn't stop nodding immediately after hearing this, "I understand, I understand, your majesty has been very kind, I am really happy, thank you, thank you."

The emperor let out a breath slowly, and when he heard her say "very happy", he suddenly felt that everything he had done was worth it.

After the emperor left, Chen Yizhen immediately called Shuangshu and Shuanglu in, and shared happily, "The emperor agreed to my cousin's participation in the imperial examination. I will call my grandmother and eldest aunt in tomorrow. I want to share the good news with them personally."
