emperor cold concubine

Chapter 652 New Year's Eve ([-])
The closer to the end of the year, the colder the temperature.

In the imperial capital, the heavy snow like goose feathers lasted for almost half a month. The inside and outside of the imperial city were covered with snow, and it seemed that there was only a vast expanse of whiteness left in the world.

For ordinary people, the Lunar New Year is the most important day of the year, and all the people in the world look forward to it.

Even Su Mo was counting the days, wishing that time would fly by, and it would be New Year's Eve in the blink of an eye.

However, her expectations are obviously different from those of ordinary people——

Just because of the difficult confinement period, this most honorable mistress in the world is about to get moldy from boredom.

If it is said that when one is pregnant, one's movements are restricted, and one is not allowed to use force or do strenuous exercise, then after giving birth, one loses one's personal freedom completely.

Lying on the bed for seven whole days, covered with two layers of quilts, Concubine Shu, Mei Yun and the other two maidservants took turns looking at her like a prisoner, not allowing her to get out of bed and move around.

Finally, after seven days of anticipation, Empress Dowager Shu finally showed mercy and allowed her to get out of bed and walk around once a day for a cup of tea, and she was only allowed in the inner room. Want to go out to see the snow?There are no doors.

The depressing life of a prisoner has been tormented for more than 20 days. It was not until New Year's Eve that the great concubine concubine gave permission to our empress to go to the outer hall and look at the snowflakes outside through the open door.

The most depressing thing for Su Mo is that when Concubine Shu forcibly treated her as a prisoner, although Cang Hao always had a gentle smile on his face, he actually completely acquiesced and supported her, and he didn't understand her tormented situation at all. .

Su Mo really wanted to yell: "Confinement is not such a way of sitting, this girl is very strong!"

It's a pity, it's just thinking about it in my heart.

Facing a group of ancient people's scientific knowledge about confinement is tantamount to playing the piano to a cow, and fortunately it is the twelfth lunar month that makes people shiver, and the weather is more than ten degrees below zero. prickly heat.

Otherwise, she might die within half a month.

After everyone's long-awaited calls, New Year's Eve finally came.

Today is extraordinarily lively, those who should come and those who shouldn't come, the expected and unexpected people, came one batch after another.

Xie Changting and Yixiu, who had put aside everything since last night, came to Weiyang Palace to pay their respects after breakfast early this morning, and took a look at the two young masters who were about to be full moon a day away.

The dinner party was still held in Zhongcui Palace, although it was regarded as a family banquet, there were quite a few people who came.

Moreover, most of them are uninvited.

Needless to say Ye Qing and Qi Lang, Yue Xiao and Shu Tong are naturally expected. Although Shu He is the Azure Dragon King, he has not left the imperial capital yet, so it is only natural that he is there. Changting and the three princes of the Luan clan, Cangfengqi, Ziyu and Yunxi, Moli, Yixiu and the six ministers, Biyue and Fengyilou's sixteen hall masters stationed in the imperial capital all took the opportunity to enter. When I came to the palace, firstly, I came to pay my respects, and secondly, I came to see the young master's full moon banquet.

The Fourteenth Highness came down, so naturally it was impossible to leave his mother and concubine alone to watch the new year in the harem at this time, so Concubine Shu also came to the palace.

Dali Temple Minister Sikong Luo and the sixth prince Cang Yunmu came here under the orders of Cang Hao.

There are hundreds of seats in the Zhongcui Palace, almost all seats are full.

There are two more people who are beyond everyone's expectations——

Qingyan, the head of the Qing family in northern Hunan, and his new wife, Bai's Hongyuan, who had been married for only half a year, unexpectedly came all the way to present a valuable gift.

Many people didn't understand the inside story, but when Su Mo heard the news, he laughed and ordered people to invite him as soon as possible.

When the chieftain arrived, everyone gathered in Zhongcui Palace, and the two rows of seats extended to the gate of the vermilion lacquer palace.

Everyone sat down in their seats in order according to their status. Su Mo was wearing a purple cloak today. Apart from keeping warm, he looked extraordinarily graceful and luxurious.

Because of the special day, not only Su Mo was allowed to be walked out of Weiyang Palace, but the two princes and princesses also made an exception to join this patient gathering.

Everyone in the hall had already saluted and sat down. Qing Yan and Bai Hong Yuan were the last ones to arrive. After performing the most standard worship etiquette, before Cang Hao could speak, Su Mo said indifferently: "Hong Yuan, you can Get up first, your husband will be wronged for a while, and kneel first."

When everyone heard the words, they all raised their eyes, and their eyes could not help but lock on the man in the blue robe kneeling in the center of the hall.

Except for Xie Changting, Yue Xiao, Moli and Biyue who knew Qing Yan in the hall, the others had only heard of the Patriarch of the Qing Family in Northern Hunan, and knew that he acted justly and had good martial arts. He had a very good reputation in Northern Hunan. Such a powerful force only recognizes this one person as the master.

Even when Bai Hongyuan had almost become the mortal enemy in Xiangbei, Qingyan's insistence on marrying her as his wife did not arouse public anger, but ended with everyone's concession and compromise.

But this man, at the moment, seems to have some relationship with Su Mo, or should I say, when did he offend Su Mo?

Everyone in the hall was puzzled, only Xie Changting and Cang Fengqi, who were the leaders on the left and right, seemed to be completely uninterested in the Patriarch of the Qing family. Their attention was all on the baby in their arms.

The one in Xie Changting's arms is the princess, and the one in Feng Wang's arms is the prince. Today, on New Year's Eve, they have become the temporary nanny of the two highnesses.

Bai Hongyuan stood up and took a few steps forward in response to Su's hand waving, her low voice implied warmth and concern, "How is the time going? How is the emperor treating you? I heard that You gave birth to two children, so there are no rumors in the palace? Has anyone targeted you..."

"Hongyuan, I'm fine. I'm fine." Su Mo smiled faintly, interrupting her series of words of concern. With a smile on her lips, she glanced at Cang Hao, "I gave birth to two babies a month ago. Children, a baby boy and a baby girl, except for the sin of confinement, everything else is fine, the emperor treats me well, there are no rumors in the palace."

Hong Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

Ever since she heard that the Empress Empress had given birth to two children, she has been uneasy all the way, and she has been uneasy in her heart. She rationally convinced her that the person Su Mo loves must not be superstitious and pedantic, but the royal family has always believed in auspicious omens and the like. The rumors of many things are not what you think rationally.

But before she breathed a sigh of relief, she became a little nervous again, "Then Moer, Qingyan...offended you?"

Su Mo said lightly: "A man who can't even protect his own wife, shouldn't this girl teach him a lesson?"
