[Quick Wear] Puhua Fairy is blessed with a long pregnancy
Chapter 48: Queen Tong Jia's Blessed Pregnancy 48 (End)
Since that day, Kangxi had vented his emotions and no longer went to the Cining Palace to pay tribute to the Empress Dowager.
The days passed uneventfully.
One day, Sheng Huan was having lunch when he unexpectedly received a visit from Concubine Zhao.
"Royal Concubine, good evening."
Sheng Huan put down the bowl and chopsticks in his hand, glanced at her, and quickly retracted his gaze, saying lightly:
"Why are you here? Sit down."
"I came here this time to talk to the Imperial Concubine about the three-year beauty pageant. Now that so many things have happened this year, I want to come and ask you..."
Concubine Zhao sat down. She did not notice Sheng Huan's coldness.
She glanced at Sheng Huan inconspicuously and found that Sheng Huan had delicate features but was still pale. She began to worry about her pregnancy.
Sheng Huan frowned slightly when she heard this: "The Empress Dowager just passed away. Although Your Majesty is the most important, it is not appropriate to organize the selection of concubines. The mourning period has not been completed for half a year, so there is no need to cause taboos among the people. Moreover, Your Majesty is not in the mood to hold a selection of concubines, so let's just give up on it this time."
Kangxi indeed had no intention of holding a beauty contest and even rejected it in the court. After all, the Empress Dowager had not been dead for long.
Concubine Zhao naturally understood this logic. She just found an excuse to come and test the truth of Sheng Huan's pregnancy. How could she really want to participate in the selection? Now, seeing is worse than hearing. Knowing Sheng Huan's situation will facilitate her future actions.
"Okay, I'll listen to the Imperial Concubine." At this point, she glanced at Sheng Huan's belly and said, "You're already seven months pregnant, right?"
Sheng Huan's expression softened and he touched his belly: "Yes, the baby will be born soon."
Tingxin and Tingqin were standing behind. When they heard this, they could not hide their worry. When Concubine Zhao saw this, her eyes flickered slightly.
"The palace will be more lively with a few more children." Concubine Zhao smiled.
Although Sheng Huan's pregnancy was unstable, Doctor Wu still diagnosed that it was multiple pregnancy. Precisely because it was multiple pregnancy, Sheng Huan's poor health at the moment was even more of a burden. Kangxi was almost going crazy these days.
The two talked for a while, and then Concubine Zhao asked to leave. She bowed slightly and said:
"I have said what I wanted to say. I will not disturb your rest any longer. I will take my leave."
"and many more."
Sheng Huan suddenly stood up and walked forward.
Concubine Zhao's expression froze, and she instantly thought of the word frame-up. After all, the Imperial Concubine's pregnancy was unstable. If she was framed, what should she do? Fortunately, she was already prepared when she came here.
Concubine Zhao secretly calmed herself down.
At this time, Sheng Huan had already approached her. He saw that her expression was tense and her lips were tightly pursed. The palace maid Yiqiao behind her also looked very nervous.
Sheng Huan chuckled, raised his hand to help Concubine Zhao up, and when he approached her, he whispered a few words that only the two of them could hear.
Concubine Zhao's expression changed drastically, her pupils shrank, her face turned pale in an instant, and her fingertips trembled constantly.
Sheng Huan seemed not to notice and patted her hands: "I am pregnant. These days, I have to trouble you and the others to take care of many things in the palace."
Concubine Zhao suppressed her teeth and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, that's not right. It is our honor that you can hand over the power of the palace to us sisters."
Although the final decision needed to be made by Sheng Huan, they did benefit from it and lived better than before. The other concubines who received the favor were very grateful to the Imperial Concubine and followed her lead.
"Empress Zhao has always been considerate, and I am relieved." Sheng Huan emphasized the last word with deep meaning.
"I will never let down the Imperial Concubine's trust."
Concubine Zhao lowered her eyes to hide the fear in them. She never expected that someone had already got hold of her. Moreover, if this matter was exposed, she would be dead, but her family was already under attack from all sides. If she was implicated as well, it would be a disaster.
She could only suppress a certain thought in her mind.
……
Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye. The mourning period for the Empress Dowager has long passed. Moreover, there are now two princes and two princesses in the palace, and the Forbidden City has long been bustling.
In the court, Kangxi announced the edict to establish the queen.
"Tong Jia has been with me for many years, managing the harem in an orderly manner and stabilizing it for me. Moreover, she gave birth to six princes and five princesses for me. It is my great fortune."
He said it with certainty, making a statement that could not be refuted.
"Long live my emperor."
The court officials did not dare to refuse, and what's more, they had already guessed the candidate for the queen, so it was not surprising at all. Moreover, the new queen had many children, and the royal family no longer had the responsibility of passing on the heir. The His Majesty also doted on her, so who could compete with her?
Kangxi looked at the kneeling minister, and he unconsciously rubbed the ring on his finger, but his mind flashed back to how his Qing'er had difficulty giving birth to quadruplets and almost died. Thinking about it now, he still felt a lingering fear.
Now, he finally gave the throne of queen to Qing'er legitimately.
The news of the enthronement of the queen soon spread throughout the harem, and no one in the harem was surprised. Although the Emperor did not come to their palace for a year, there was no one else in the harem who was favored except the new queen. The new queen treated them very well. Although they were no longer favored, the palace people did not dare to bully them. The monthly and annual allowances were all good. Many people felt at ease and even lost the desire to compete for favor.
After all, even if you fight, you won't win, so it's better to lie down. How happy you will be when you lie down.
Cheng Qiangong
"Master, you will be the queen from now on!"
"Yeah, great!"
Tingxin Tingqin followed Sheng Huan all the way here, and now her eyes are filled with tears, unable to control herself.
On the fifth day of the eleventh month of the fourteenth year of the Kangxi reign, the weather was fine, and it was a good day as predicted by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory.
On this day, a grand ceremony to establish the queen began.
At night, Sheng Huan arrived at Kunning Palace.
Since she became the queen, she naturally moved to another palace.
The Kunning Palace was decorated with lights and red silks hung everywhere, and dragon and phoenix candles were lit and burning brightly.
"Qing'er."
Kangxi strode in wearing a bright red wedding gown, with an upright posture, a cheerful face, and surprisingly bright eyes, like a traveler who has finally found rain after a long drought. He has always been calm and self-controlled, but today the smile on the corner of his lips was ostentatious and wanton.
"cousin……"
She wore the auspicious dress during the grand ceremony, but when she returned to the palace, she was helped by the palace servants to change into the phoenix coronet and bridal robe.
The bright red wedding dress makes people look as beautiful as a rose.
Kangxi was stunned at once, and the young man's face was flushed. He held her hand and praised her sincerely:
"Qing'er, you are so beautiful."
She looked up at him, smiled, and then seemed to be burned by the warmth in his eyes. Due to the atmosphere, she looked away somewhat embarrassedly.
The woman's cheeks were flushed, as if rouge had been spilled on them, and they were white with a rosy glow. She looked shy like a flower bud about to bloom, tempting passers-by.
Kangxi's eyes deepened, he was already tempted. He took her fair and delicate hand and walked step by step to the table.
"Today is the wedding day. Come here, Qing'er, and let's drink the wedding wine."
The two men sat down and Kangxi poured out two glasses of wine.
The mandarin ducks embraced each other, and the couple raised their glasses to drink the wedding wine, which symbolized a long and happy marriage.
After drinking, Kangxi couldn't wait to pick up the princess and walk to the couch.
