Chapter 259, Concubine Li's Birth, Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet
Glory Hall.
The midwife walked out of the delivery room with a crying baby in her arms, and for a while, everyone's eyes were attracted to the child.
Even His Majesty the Emperor, who has countless children, can hardly hide the look of anticipation in his eyes, and the noble concubine Xia is even more worried, if this is the prince, Concubine Li is afraid that it is very likely to be on an equal footing with her!
"Congratulations to the emperor, Concubine Li gave birth to a little princess."
For a while, not only the concubine breathed a sigh of relief, but the concubine who was also in the concubine position also fell into a big heart, but Concubine Cheng looked slightly regretful.
And the smile on Emperor Xuan Chengyi's face also visibly dissipated, he nodded, and said expressionlessly: "Okay, reward!" β
Then the emperor didn't care about Concubine Li's mother and daughter, and went back to approve the folds.
Wei Jiashu: ...... I said another sentence that MMP is not worth talking about, not to be said.
Everyone hurriedly curtsied and sent the emperor off.
The atmosphere in the hall was also warm for a while.
Xia Guifei smiled and said, "Oh, this is already the ninth princess!" The ninth princess cried loudly, much healthier than the sixth princess of the main palace. β
Concubine Jin also smiled all over her face, "Concubine Li's appearance is bright, and the ninth princess will definitely be a beauty in the future." β
Wei Jiashu only saw a child who was red and looked like a monkey's buttocks.
At this time, Concubine Li's confidant Fuxi Mama walked out of the delivery room quickly, and she bent her knees and said, "Our mother wants to give birth to a little princess." β
Wei Jiashu secretly thought, Concubine Li's body bones are quite good, from midnight to noon, she hasn't fallen asleep yet.
The midwife answered "yes", and followed Fuxi into the delivery room quickly.
This Fuxi is the original Fuyou Mama, in order to avoid the name of meat, so Concubine Li renamed her Fuxi.
Blessings and misfortunes lurk, Concubine Li has always been vigilant and cautious at all times, so she can stay safe in the harem.
Concubine Li, who had just given birth, had messy hair and was covered with hot sweat, and she took her child from the arms of the midwife, her face full of relief.
Mama Fuxi sighed and said, "When the slave went out, the emperor was already gone. If it were a prince, the emperor would not be so indifferent.
Concubine Li smiled and groaned, "The daughter of this palace has her own love from this palace, as for whether her father loves her, this palace does not force it." "ββThe emperor already has eight princes and nine princesses, and he can't love them for a long time.
Fu Xi said in his heart, it is natural that the mother can see it, it is naturally good.
In the blink of an eye, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Concubine Li is still in confinement, so naturally she can't participate in this year's Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will be held in the Tongle Hall on the shore of Beihu Lake, and the harem concubines, princes and princesses will all attend, and the palace will have fun together, and the scene is very lively.
At twilight, the concubines of the palace arrived one after another, Wei Jiashu was wearing a lotus pink treasure flower makeup satin cloak today, gentle and low-key, with a treasure bun on his head, and in the middle of the bun was a brand new gold-inlaid jade full of pond Jiaojiao, and two golden silk peach blossom hairpins and two gemstone beads to cover the temples, which was full of gold and jade, so as not to lose the identity of the concubine.
Wei Jiashu only felt that her head was a little heavier than before, but when she looked at it, the high-ranking concubines above the concubine seat were all full of pearls and emeralds, and her temples were gorgeous.
Among the concubines, especially Xia Guifei's appearance is the most expensive and gorgeous, with a rose purple silk wide-sleeved shirt, a gorgeous peony head combed on her head, and countless gold and jade on her head, it is simply a mobile jewelry exhibition. Xia walked slowly, sitting on the seat second only to the emperor and the queen mother, with a slight arrogance on his face, only when he looked at the seats of the princes, his gaze would be a little gentle.
When the twilight was about to end, the emperor accompanied the Queen Mother to the Tongle Palace.
The concubines, princes, and princesses hurriedly got up and paid their respects.
The emperor helped the Queen Mother to sit down, and then raised his voice and said: "All are exempt, take a seat!" β
"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison, and then they all returned to their seats.
The emperor and the queen mother sat facing south, and on the platform, they looked particularly noble and tall. The concubines live on the east side, the princes and princesses live on the west side, the concubines are according to their rank, and the princes and princesses are seated according to the eldest and youngest.
Therefore, the closest to the emperor and queen mother are Xia Guifei and the crown prince Xiuren.
The crown prince is now fourteen years old, although he is not yet the age of marriage, but the emperor has given several concubines, all of whom are ladies from medium-sized official families. And other princes, if they want to open meat, most of the objects are palace maids. If you catch up with the draft, it is possible to give one or two show maids and concubines.
Tianze did not have a draft for fifteen years, and the emperor specially instructed the Internal Affairs Office to hold a small-scale draft privately for the sake of the crown prince, just to choose a concubine for the prince.
Wei Jiashu's current seat is second only to the concubine and the third concubine, Concubine Li is now in confinement, and the only people sitting above her are the concubine, Concubine Jin and Concubine Cheng.
With the silk and bamboo, the first wave of wine and food has also been served, and the graceful teacher of the temple dancer Ji appeared on the stage, singing and dancing lightly for a while, which is really pleasing to the eye.
Concubine Cheng took a sip of osmanthus wine and whispered: "Sister Liang Concubine has heard that Li Zhaoxun of the East Palace is happy." β
"Poof!" The osmanthus wine in Wei Jiashu's mouth almost spurted out, and she hurriedly covered her lips with a brocade hand, "What? β
This Li Zhaoxun is one of the prince's chamberlains, it is said that he is the most favored one in the backyard of the East Palace, and he has only served the prince for half a year, and he is only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Concubine Cheng turned the red gold wine cup, "It is said that it has been more than two months, and if it is a boy, it is the emperor's eldest grandson." β
Concubine Jin, who was sitting on the chief seat of Concubine Cheng, looked a little unhappy, "It's not yet known whether it's a son or a daughter!" β
It is said that Concubine Jin's second prince Xiu Zhong is only one year younger than the crown prince, although there are people in the house, but they are not yet famous, so naturally they are not allowed to get pregnant.
But the two Zhaoxun and the two Fengyi of the East Palace have all crossed the Ming Road.
Wei Jiashu shook his head secretly, before he married a wife, he had a concubine and put it in an ordinary family, how unseemly this is!
The queen mother, who was sitting high on the south side, glanced at the growing grandchildren below, bowed her head slightly with satisfaction, and looked at the concubines on the other side, the concubine was still so arrogant, and the few concubines and concubines below were not bad, and it was his niece Ji Yunxian again.
The Queen Mother sighed secretly.
But he didn't want to, but Xuan Chengyi next to him had extremely sharp eyes, "Why did the queen mother sigh?" But what is wrong with the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet today? β
The emperor's question made Concubine Cheng Cheng's heart rise to her throat. Concubine Li has already resigned from the palace, and if the Queen Mother is dissatisfied with this Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, it is the fault of the two of them.
The Queen Mother smiled reluctantly: "It's all good." It's just that Concubine Li is not here today, and there are few high-ranking concubines in the mourning family. There are many concubines in the emperor, but there are only noble concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, concubines, The four concubines are not full, and there are only four of the nine concubines.
So seeing that Yunxian was not even a concubine, the Queen Mother felt heartwarming.
Xuan Chengyi smiled and said: "Now that many high positions in the harem are vacant, if the queen mother is interested, I also feel that maybe it's time to be promoted." β
As soon as the words came out, I don't know how many people were shocked. The concubines were overjoyed, and many of them felt that they had hope of going further, but the prince, who was sitting on the west side, almost couldn't hold the wine cup in his hand.
Concubine Guifei only gave birth to a little princess a few years ago, and Concubine Li also gave birth to a little princess a few days ago, and the East Palace was also relieved, but now, the emperor intends to seal the six palaces!
