Chapter 240 240: Intentionally please

Everyone loves to hear the words presented, Concubine Shu smiled at Liu Anyu: "What a clever mouth, Wang Momo, go and bring the set of cat's-eye stone noodles from Ben Gong to Miss Six."

"Yes, ma'am." Wang Momo replied, and turned to get it.

Liu Anyu happily thanked her: "Thank you, Madam, for the reward."

Concubine Shu nodded with a smile, then looked at Liu Anyao: "I heard that you have four sisters, but I haven't seen them before, are you engaged?"

Liu Anyu sat at the side, hearing Concubine Shu's words, her heart skipped a beat.

What did the empress suddenly ask about the other sisters in the mansion?

Liu Anyao replied: "I have a fourth sister from a concubine above me, one year older than my sixth younger sister, and I haven't made an appointment yet. Mother said that this year, no matter what, I will order a marriage for her, otherwise she will become a big girl if it is delayed." , the sixth younger sister and aunt have seen it, and there are two younger sisters who are born under the concubine, and they are not as good as Ji, so they are not in a hurry."

As she said that, she looked at Liu Anyu again and said, "Sixth sister is fifteen this year, and she will perform the Jiji ceremony in February."

Concubine Shu nodded knowingly, but didn't ask any further questions.

Liu Anyu bowed her head, secretly heaving a sigh of relief.

After the two had lunch in Chuxiu Palace, Liu Anyao and Liu Anyu went back to Liu's house.

Aunt Qiu has been waiting for news, and when she heard that her daughter was returning home, she hurried to find her.

"Yu'er, how did you see Concubine Shu today?"

Liu Anyu was sitting in front of the bronze mirror taking off the hairpin on her head, when she heard Aunt Qiu's voice, she glanced at her in the mirror with a smile: "Your Majesty has treated me very well and even rewarded me with some good looks."

As she spoke, she saw an open pear wood box next to her daughter, and inside was a whole set of hairstyles.

Aunt Qiu took a few steps forward, marveled, touched it, and said with a smile: "That's great, it can be seen that the empress is satisfied with you, can Miss Wu make things difficult for you?"

Liu Anyu shook her head: "No, she also praised my beauty many times in front of the empress, all of which were nice and obedient, and seemed to be trying to curry favor with me."

"That's natural. In the Liu family, she is a noble daughter from the first wife, but once married, her husband is just a scholar with a reputation as a scholar and a merchant. Even if he has your father's support, he doesn't know how many years he will have to endure. But you are different, even if she is a side concubine, she will still salute you when she sees you in the future, so she will naturally try to curry favor with you now." Aunt Qiu said with a look of satisfaction in her eyes.

Liu Anyu slightly hooked her lips, her dazzling smile was very attractive.

"As long as she is respectful and humble to me, I can't help her."

Aunt Qiu nodded in agreement, but she reminded her as if she had thought of something: "However, the marriage has not been finalized yet, so let's not be too happy, and you can't lose your composure in front of Madam and Miss Fifth, and wait until you marry into the second prince's house." , I am not afraid that there is no time to feel elated."

"I know, Auntie." Liu Anyu said: "But Concubine Shu asked several other concubines in our family, I don't know what it means?"

She has always had a knot in her heart.

Aunt Qiu was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I guess it was just a random question. Miss Wu has never mentioned you in detail in front of the empress, so when I see you today, I will ask someone else by the way."

Seeing what Aunt Qiu said, Liu Anyu also thought it was the case, so she put the matter behind her and happily admired Concubine Shu's honor.

In the evening, Mama Wu from the main courtyard came to get Liu Anyu's birthday horoscope with Aunt Qiu.

Aunt Qiu wrote it on the red paper solemnly and seriously, folded it carefully and handed it to Mama Wu.

Mother Wu smiled and blessed her body: "The madam will bring Miss Six's birthday horoscope to the palace and give it to the empress. If she chooses an auspicious day, she will take it to Xiangguo Temple, and ask the aunt to wait for the good news."

Aunt Qiu was so moved that she didn't know why, she took a purse and stuffed it into Mama Wu's hand: "I made Madam worry about it, I am very grateful."

Mother Wu stuffed it into her cuffs, turned around and left.

The early morning glow is refracted in the center of the clouds, emitting a golden halo.

Jingren Palace, there is a small garden connected to the back of the main hall. There were many exotic flowers and different plants, competing for beauty. The scenery is quite charming, but now it has suddenly become an open space. Pass.

The empress suddenly had a strange hobby.

Grow vegetables!

At this moment, the honorable Empress Song is wearing a homely silver-white dress, a phoenix with wings spread out is outlined in gold on the floral skirt, her sleeves are half rolled up to her arms, and she is digging a hole with a **** , Yunlu and the others held the vegetable seedlings and rapeseeds and stood aside dumbfounded.

After Queen Song dug a hole, Yunlu and others put a seedling in it.

Looking around, the sparseness is not good-looking at all.

But the empress is so happy, what else can they say.

At this time, Cheng De, the chief **** of Jingren Palace, trotted over, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty, Miss San is here."

Hearing this, Empress Song straightened up immediately, and threw the **** in Chengde's hand: "I'm going to see Xiangxiang, and I'll leave this place to you, so I can plant it well for this palace."

Looking at the flying hoe, Cheng De quickly threw the whisk in his hand, and hurriedly caught it with both hands: "Your servant obeys."

Hey, fortunately, the servant planted land at home before entering the palace, and this kind of work is not difficult for him.

Yun Lu and others saw that Empress Song had left, and gave the vegetable seedlings and seeds in their hands to the little **** and the little palace maid, and they also left.

Cheng De didn't dare to have any objections. Although he was the chief **** of Jingren Palace, his empress liked to use maids the most, so Yun Lu and other court ladies had a higher status than him. How dare he let them stand aside and wait for him to grow vegetables? .

Empress Song went to wash her hands first, changed into clean clothes again, and then went to the west hall to meet Lu Xiang.

Lu Xiang was sitting on a stool eating peaches. Seeing Empress Song coming, she hurriedly put down the peaches and got up to salute.

"The empress is auspicious."

Empress Song walked past her and pulled her up, said with a smile, "Sit down, but I haven't entered the palace for a few days. If I don't summon you, you wouldn't even think of entering the palace."

Lu Xiang smiled lightly: "The imperial concubine's palace affairs are troublesome, and it's not good for ministers to come into the palace to disturb them often."

She couldn't bear to remind the queen that even the six married princesses didn't enter the palace as diligently as her.

Empress Song sat opposite her, and took a bite of each of the peaches: "I called you into the palace today to tell me a happy event."

"What happy event?" Lu Xiang looked at Queen Song curiously.

Empress Song: "Concubine Zhen is pregnant, less than two months old."

Lu Xiang gnawed on Tao Zi's hand, and looked at Empress Song in astonishment: "Huh?"

Empress Song was amused by her blank appearance: "Your child's reaction is really strange. Your aunt is pregnant with a dragon heir. Are you unhappy?"

Whether it is a prince or a princess, the position of a concubine is stable.

Lu Xiang was really dumbfounded, because she hadn't been able to conceive a child until her concubine died in her previous life. Could it be because of her rebirth that a butterfly effect occurred?

But Lu Xiang couldn't help the conspiracy theory.

"Are... are you sure you're pregnant?"
