   Chapter 433 Fighting for favor

Queen Qiao ordered the imperial doctor to see a doctor for Concubine Qin, and comforted Concubine Qin in person: "If you are sick, take care of yourself. Don't go to Shouning Palace. The Queen Mother is old, don't let the Queen Mother feel sick. ."

   Then, he turned his head and instructed the imperial doctor: "From today onwards, you will be here to take care of your illness, so that you can take care of Concubine Qin."

As soon as the word    "recuperate" entered his ears, Concubine Qin's complexion changed.

  In the palace, it is common for concubines and concubines to report illness. When it comes to recuperation, it means long-term "recuperation". At that time, Concubine Meng was "recuperated" for more than a year before she was able to leave the palace.

Concubine Qin struggled to sit up immediately, and said in a hurry, "This little illness of the concubine will be cured in three or five days. Where does it need to be recuperated so seriously? It is the concubine's fault that makes the empress worry. The Empress is not to accompany you. There are a lot of Empresses, so don’t have the same knowledge as me.”

  The imperial physicians withdrew early and wisely.

   Queen Qiao glanced at Concubine Qin with a sincere face, and there was a hint of coolness in her voice: "As soon as the fourth prince left, you fell ill on the couch. I didn't know, I thought you were dissatisfied with your son and daughter-in-law."

Concubine Qin gritted her teeth secretly, showing a look of shame: "It was the concubine who made a fool of myself. The concubine had no intention of him, and just hoped that Ah Xian would stay in the palace for more days. As a mother, I want to see you every day. Son. Niangniang will definitely be able to understand such feelings."

Queen Qiao raised her face: "The palace has its own rules and regulations. The fourth prince took the initiative to leave the palace, and this palace would also like to praise him for his behavior. It's all messed up like you, and there are no rules in the palace, isn't it a mess? "

   With such a big hat buttoned down, Concubine Qin couldn't bear it.

   Concubine Qin had a white face, and knelt down on the bed to plead for the crime: "This minister is confused, please punish the goddess!"

   "The fourth prince has done his best for the country and is loyal to the emperor and the prince. For his sake, this palace will not care about you this time." Queen Qiao said coldly: "This is only one time, and the next one will not be an example."

   Queen Joe walked away.

   Concubine Qin leaned over beside the bed and cried fiercely.

   I don’t know if I’m crying about my son’s unfilial piety or the pain of being a concubine.

  The next day, the eldest prince and concubine returned to the palace with Tanger.

  Meng Yunluo, the third prince concubine, was imprisoned for several days, but she calmed down and did not dare to make trouble. Sending the palace servants to the East Palace to pass a message, strongly expressed the intention of leaving the palace and returning to the palace.

  Lu Mingyu didn't stop him, so it was spread that he could leave at any time if he wanted to leave the palace.

   Meng Yunluo immediately took Sister Zhen back to the Third Prince's Mansion.

   On the other hand, the fifth prince, Li Chang, was depressed because of Concubine Su's death, and was really sick on the couch. He would not get better for a while. Not to mention the bedroom.

  …

  Concubine Qin had to rest for a few days because of her illness.

  Empress Dowager Zhao was lonely without Concubine Qin beside her. In the East Palace, the Crown Prince and the Concubine are all recovering from injuries. Brother Jue is very ill, and Sister Xuan is also watched very closely. The family of four does not leave the East Palace.

   Concubine Su died, Concubine Meng rarely came to greet her, and the young concubine in the palace, the Queen Mother Zhao looked down on. As for Queen Qiao, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have a rift with each other, and they only talk about each other when they meet.

   Looking at it, Wang Jieyu is quite satisfactory.

  Wang Jieyu has always been very low-key in the harem. After giving birth to her daughter, she became more peaceful, and she almost never went anywhere except to say goodbye to the Jiaofang Hall of Shouning Palace. I stay in my bedroom every day, and raise my children carefully.

   Empress Dowager Zhao did not want to see Wang Jieyu. Every time Wang Jieyu came to greet her, Empress Dowager Zhao never even saw her. Wang Jieyu saluted outside the Shouning Palace and left silently.

   In the past few days, Empress Dowager Zhao was bored, so she asked Wang Jieyu to hold the little Princess Ping'an to talk.

  Wang Jieyu has a soft temperament and does not speak much. The one-year-old little princess was born white and plump, with black eyes like two grapes, black and bright. A ruddy little mouth, grinning, very cute and lovable.

  The little princess was supported by the nurse, walking around the hall, waving her little fat arms, and giggling from time to time.

  The deserted Shouning Palace suddenly became a bit lively.

   Empress Dowager Zhao praised cheerfully: "Xiao Ping'an was born well and raised better. She is strong and clever, and this is all your credit."

Wang Jieyu was flattered by the praise, so she got up and said with a smile: "The empress dowager praised the concubine, and the concubine is ashamed. The concubine has no other ability, and her heart is on the child. The safety of the child is the greatest blessing of the concubine. already."

   Empress Dowager Zhao said with a smile: "The emperor has not seen Ping An. When the emperor returns, I don't know how to like her. Your blessings are still in the future!"

   Concubine Su died, Concubine Meng was old, and Concubine Qin did not get much favor. Queen Qiao is also getting old.

   From now on, the favored person in this harem will definitely be the young, beautiful and gentle Wang Jieyu.

  In the past, Empress Dowager Zhao didn't like Wang Jieyu very much, mainly because Wang Jieyu was Queen Qiao's person. Aside from this layer, Wang Jieyu really has nothing to fault.

   Let's take a look at the strong and healthy little princess. Maybe, in the future, when Emperor Yongjia returns, Wang Jieyu can have another little prince or something.

  Thinking about this, the Queen Mother Zhao looked at Wang Jieyu even more pleasing to the eye, and opened her mouth to appreciate a bunch of things.

  Wang Jieyu politely declined: "My concubine has no merit or virtue, so I can't be rewarded as generously as the empress dowager. If the concubine wants a reward, she will reward a few good clothes, and the concubine will make a few more new clothes for the little princess."

   Gentle and honest, and not greedy at all.

   Empress Dowager Zhao was very happy, so she changed her mind and rewarded a pile of clothes.

   After seven or eight days, Concubine Qin recovered from her illness and came to Shouning Palace to greet her. It was only when I realized that Empress Dowager Zhao had a "new favorite" by her side.

  Wang Jieyu sat aside with a smile, Empress Dowager Zhao put her arms around the chubby little princess, listening to the little princess's childish words and laughing happily.

   Qin Fei suddenly felt a sense of crisis, and glanced at the past calmly.

Wang Jieyu smiled and stood up to salute, and Concubine Qin said without a smile: "I have been ill these days, and I cannot come to Shouning Palace to ask for peace. Fortunately, you come every day to accompany the Empress Dowager to talk to relieve the boredom. "

Wang Jieyu didn't seem to hear what Concubine Qin was saying, and smiled softly: "The concubine is stupid and can't speak. The empress dowager wanted to see the little princess, so she called the concubine here. Now that concubine Qin is here, the concubine doesn't have to be. Always run to Shouning Palace."

   This sounds pretty much the same.

  Concubine Qin, who was arrogant and arrogant, nodded slightly. Then, I heard Empress Dowager Zhao smile and say: "Aijia is looking at Concubine Qin's face every day, and she is tired of looking at it, and there is nothing to say. You come here with peace, and Aijia will look at you and see your granddaughter. Happy too."

  Concubine Qin: "..."

  Concubine Qin's face was almost swollen, and she sat down disheveled. I want to say a few words of coquettish anger, but I am old, and I can't act like a girl.

  Wang Jieyu didn't make fun of her, she still smiled softly and reservedly: "The queen mother raised her love, but the concubine was disrespectful, so she would shamelessly come to greet her and accompany her to relax and relieve boredom."
