The Beloved Imperial Consort

Mu Xiyao woke up early in the morning and found that no one had moved the bed beside her, so she knew that Zong Zhenglin had slept in the study at night. A person got up and was served to freshen up. He was having breakfast when he saw His Highness the Sixth Highness lift the curtain and enter with a serious face.

After carefully looking at the man, Mu Xiyao served him dishes.

"Your Highness, what's the matter?" Seeing his cold expression early in the morning, Mu Xiyao felt that the already cold weather was even more uncomfortable.

Listening to Mu Xiyao's question, Zong Zhenglin slowly softened his expression, walked over and put his arms around her waist, caressed her stomach, but didn't answer, just had dinner with her and hurried forward.

"Master, last night the chief steward sent someone to carry the concubine concubine and her sister back to Shu Huiyuan, and then invited the imperial doctor, who said that the two of them are not well. There was a commotion in the yard all night." Zhao Mama got the news and came early in the morning report.

Mu Xiyao felt that these two people were really lingering, why were they entangled again and still inseparable? It's Chinese New Year, how many times is this the first time?

He asked rather playfully, "Anything else?" What is that woman Tang Yiru doing? Just let her concubine be so presumptuous?

"Master, the imperial doctor said that the imperial concubine was furious and suddenly frightened, so she didn't recover and passed out."

Mu Xiyao felt that according to the frequency of concubine Tang Shu's fainting, this Xieyu flower was not far away from the little white flower.

"Her younger sister," Zhao Momo was very puzzled, "said that when she was carried back, her whole body was soaked and frozen like an ice cube. Slow recovery. If it is not good, the body will be damaged, and it will affect future fertility."

Mu Xiyao felt like she was listening to a play, and when she woke up after a nap, the two sisters would start a fight? When asked about the details, Mother Zhao said that His Highness personally restrained him, saying that anyone who dared to chew their ears was kicked out immediately.

So Mu Xiyao let it go and ignored it, and if Zong Zhenglin refused to pass it on, then those who were obedient would not know it. Anyway, it has nothing to do with her, even if you want to watch a play, you have to wait for the two of them to wake up. She called someone to follow her to the garden, looked at her potted plants, teased the koi, and let the two fat rabbits out for a few jumps, Mu Xiyao enjoyed herself.

Zong Zhenglin was busy welcoming and seeing off, and he didn't even bother to think about other people, so he just sent someone to say that Shen Shi was going to pick up his side concubine for the banquet.

Tang Yiru managed to wake up, and listened to Shumei's detailed account of what happened later, she was so angry that she immediately dropped the medicine bowl, wishing she could strangle that bitch behind to death. Now how can I not understand that I have been tricked, I stepped on myself to climb up in front of His Highness, and she got it.

Tang Yiru's face was filled with hatred, "How could that woman come outside? How could she even come to the prince's mansion to pay New Year's greetings? She has already been locked up by the family." It was a disaster. It's time to clean her up together.

Shumei didn't know why the master was so resentful, so she could only answer cautiously, saying that His Highness had explained it, and that she would carry it back immediately after the foster one was ready.

Tang Yiru calmed down a little this time, and groaned in her heart, if the bitch wants to enter the mansion, it depends on His Highness's consent. From the looks of it now, I'm afraid she was just trying to fetch water from a bamboo basket. deserve it!

Zong Zhenglin helped Mu Xiyao to sit in Concubine Shu's palace first, and then slowly went to the Empress Dowager's Palace with the Fourth Prince to greet her. Seeing that Mu Xiyao had a big belly, the queen mother hurriedly asked people to sit down, and then praised the New Year's gift she sent was very good, and she was very happy to see it.

The concubines, princes and relatives of the palaces also arrived one after another, and the Queen Mother's place was very lively for a while. When Emperor Yuan Cheng came in, he saw that everyone was chatting enthusiastically, and he was somewhat satisfied on his face.

By the time the family banquet started, Mu Xiyao had already socialized with ease in the group of female relatives. Zong Zhenglin looked at the pregnant woman with long sleeves and good at dancing from a distance, and smiled happily, so he was a little relieved, fearing that she would not be able to sit still while pregnant.

The queen mother was very interested in what Mu Xiyao said, and the rest of the people followed suit. After she finished speaking, the Empress Dowager Jin simply took advantage of the joy of the New Year to give her a reward, let her watch the three latest vases that came into the palace and choose one of them to take home, which is considered a reward.

For a while, the women's relatives were quiet, and there were many people who were envious and jealous. I am also curious about what style the side concubine of His Highness the Sixth Highness will fancy.

The men in front noticed the sudden silence behind them, and paid attention curiously. After looking around, I realized that everyone over there was staring at His Highness Sixth Highness's side concubine, whispering their ears in private.

Zong Zhenglin's heart tightened, could it be that the little girl lost her temper and offended someone? This is a New Year's feast, if the Queen Mother and Emperor Yuan Cheng get angry, the little girl will suffer.

It's a little far away, so I can only get a rough look, and I can't hear what the women are saying with their mouths covered.

Zong Zhenglin looked solemn, straightened his sitting posture, fixed his phoenix eyes on Mu Xiyao's silhouette with her head bowed in thought, and was about to get up to plead guilty, but she turned her head and said a few words back to the Queen Mother, and even touched her stomach with her little hand.

Now the empress dowager led a group of female relatives, who were only slightly stunned, and laughed so hard that she laughed and cursed at her, and waved the two young eunuchs to the outside room.

Seeing the lively laughter over there, Emperor Yuan Cheng was also curious, and rushed over to find out what happened and came back to answer. In the end, the little eunuch came back and told the whole story: Concubine Mu didn't like anything in the palace, but the barracuda raised in the garden pond, and asked the queen mother if she could reward more sea pomfrets, so that a good thing will come in pairs.

Emperor Yuan Cheng was taken aback for a moment, then laughed out loud, without covering his eyes at all, he just looked at Zong Zhenglin several times in a teasing manner. He was even more in a good mood and asked to get a few more, so that Namu would not have enough to eat and blame the royal family for being stingy.

Zong Zhenglin's face was twitched by Emperor Yuan Cheng's teasing, and he sat stiffly. The uneasiness on his face made Emperor Yuan Cheng amused.

After receiving ambiguous glances from a group of brothers, Zong Zhenglin calmly served tea and sipped it carefully. The woman let him be seen as a joke, so she would clean up after returning home and remember it long. The fish in the family have been harmed enough by her, and now even the fish in the palace have been targeted, it is really not out of the ordinary.

Mu Xiyao didn't know that she was about to be punished by His Highness the Sixth Highness, and she happily thanked her for her kindness, with a sweet smile on her face.

Concubine Shu saw that Mrs. Mu won the reward from the Queen Mother and made the Queen Mother happy, so she felt very comfortable. I feel that this side concubine is quite capable, and she can always please her superiors.

Mu Xiyao walked in front with her maid, her face full of joy. The two eunuchs behind her, holding a wooden barrel with several big fish in their hands, followed her to see sweat on their foreheads.

Seeing the man standing at the gate of the garden waiting for her from a distance, the corners of Mu Xiyao's mouth turned up, and her eyes lit up.

"Your Highness, the Empress Dowager rewarded my concubine with a lot of sea fish from the South China Sea, how about we eat fish tomorrow?" The little face was full of excitement and anticipation.

"Okay, very good." Zong Zhenglin stretched his brows, grabbed the woman's little hand, and brought her back to the mansion.

On the night of New Year's Eve, Mu Xiyao was arrested by Zong Zhenglin and went to Shuangyan Pond to have a good time with her before she finished her New Year's Eve. When she came back, she tried all kinds of tricks. In the end, he still choked up and called His Highness in a small voice, which made Zong Zhenglin growl and call Jiaojiao, and let her go.

Lying on the bed, the considerate Sixth Highness said that since Concubine Mu loves to eat fish, it is inappropriate to give big red envelopes during the Chinese New Year, it would be better to replace it with a few piebald.

When Mu Xiyao heard that the lucky money that she had been looking forward to for a long time was swallowed up by this man, she was immediately annoyed. She greeted him vigorously with her little feet, and let out a grunt.

Zong Zhenglin didn't care about her little effort, stroking the beautiful woman's back, enjoying it very much.

"Jiaojiao is so enthusiastic, she must want to have some intimacy with this hall."

Mu Xiyao was so frightened that she quickly closed her feet, obediently leaned against the man's chest and curled up into a ball, and soon fell asleep sweetly. Zong Zhenglin watched the woman curling up softly in his arms, and slowly closed his eyes, putting his arms around her.

Early in the morning on the first day of the first lunar month, everyone in Danruo Garden found that Concubine Mu was in a good mood, smiling brightly and speaking lightly from the moment she opened the door.

Only Mo Lan knew that the master found a big red envelope under the pillow this morning, and there was a thick stack of bank notes inside. The master has been so happy since he saw the bank note. It's really... Your Highness is used to it. The master has never been so open-minded about money before.
