Chapter 17
"Let her in."

"Why is my sister here?" Concubine Ning was wrapped with a flannelette band around her head, and her body was also covered with a thin quilt, but in this weather, wearing tulle clothes was already unbearable, she Even covered with such a thick quilt.

"Sister, you can't bear your body like this, it's so hot..."

Concubine Ning's face was pale, and her smile was quite different from her past, as if the flowers in March had withered.

"My sister doesn't know about this anymore, it's what we women need to have a baby, especially my sister just almost..." Concubine Ning's eyes turned red when she said this.

Shang Kelan held her hands again and again, and sat on the side of the bed in a regular manner, comforting softly.

"Sister, Concubine Hua wanted to help you find the person who brought the medicine powder today, but she couldn't find it, and the little eunuch who was caught refused to tell the truth."

Shang Kelan lowered her head, with guilt in her eyes.

"It's okay... His Majesty has sent a few more teams to my sister, and she won't go out easily until the fetus is unstable."

Shang Kelan's eyes flickered, Concubine Ning...does she really want to give birth to this child?

"Your Majesty, it's time for meds."

Concubine Ning sighed, with a wry smile on her face, "Sister, my sister's side smells like medicine, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it, I heard that's the case with the first child... If you are afraid, you should go back quickly."

"It's not that I'm afraid, I'm just worried about my sister, so I won't bother my sister to drink the medicine for now, but this is Xiaoxia's new pastry, my sister's medicine is bitter, take one to relieve the bitterness."

Shang Kelan smiled and opened the lid of the box, revealing the white and tender soft glutinous dumplings in front of him.

Concubine Ning accepted it politely, then picked up the still warm medicine and drank it down in one gulp.

Shang Kelan was wearing a tulle dress and had just entered Concubine Ning's room. The room was like a steamer, and her whole body was completely steamed, even the hair was covered with sweat sticking to her forehead.

Now there will be some embarrassment, but the face she looks at Concubine Ning is indeed very weak, it doesn't look like a fake.

"Yuan Ge, you said that His Majesty specially arranged Zhiqiu for me, are you afraid that there is no one around me who knows medical skills?"

Yuan Ge didn't expect that Shang Kelan would suddenly ask her to come in to serve her today. She was a little happy in her heart, and her movements became more cautious and well-behaved.

"Yes, Your Majesty has been thinking about this all the time, so naturally he wants to make proper arrangements for your empress."

"Then does Concubine Ning have someone she can trust? Could it be that she is in the Imperial Hospital?" Shang Kelan felt the movement of the people behind her stop.

That's it...

"I heard from Zhiqiu that the servant girl is indeed hard to protect, but it's not hopeless, but it may hurt the body."

Will she hurt her roots for the first child?

Shang Kelan paused for a moment, not thinking about this question, but changed the topic to a brisk one.

"Concubine Ning, is there anything interesting, I want to hear."

"Yes, but the rumors may not be true."

"It doesn't matter." This kind of thing is half-truth and half-false. If you think about it carefully, you can always get out of it. It's really useful, and it's not bad to be a gossip at worst.

"Your Majesty has been resting with her for the past few days, and I heard that Concubine Ning wants His Majesty to accept a first-class maid in her palace."

"Concubine Ning asked His Majesty for all the things that Concubine Ning used, and all of them were used as tribute. The Queen Mother heard that she was very supportive, and didn't say anything else. It's just that the Queen had some criticisms, but she also... ..."

"But you're not qualified to say that?"

Shang Kelan listened quietly, Yuan Ge was taken aback and wanted to remind her to be cautious.

But isn't the queen the eldest princess?The queen he was marrying, she was marrying, but now she was just an imperial concubine, to put it bluntly, she was just a concubine.

Even if she enters the palace, she is indifferent. Is she really a person who doesn't care about anything?

Devotion without purpose does not exist.

The next day.

Shang Kelan had already inquired about the time when Concubine Hua was going to visit Concubine Ning, and not long after Concubine Hua stepped in with her front foot, she stepped in with her back foot.

"Sister, what a coincidence, we actually came to see Sister Ning Concubine together."

Shang Kelan smiled and leaned against Zhizi who was behind her, seeming a little unsteady.

Concubine Hua's face was ashen, and she didn't even hold the hand of the maid next to her, and strode into the palace with her sleeves flicked.

"Oh, it's really ridiculous."

Zhizi tilted her head and glanced at her master. She seemed to feel that the master was different, but she still loved to play as before.

"elder sister."

When Concubine Ning saw Shang Kelan, her face changed slightly. Shang Kelan smiled. She didn't even need to look closely to know that her complexion today was much better than yesterday, like... like that It's like nothing happened.

So she really wasn't sure if she directed and acted in the scene yesterday.

"Sister Lan'er is really diligent in coming here," Concubine Hua couldn't help but said as soon as she sat down.

"That's natural. Since my sister came to this palace, the two elder sisters have taken good care of her. It's not like the younger sister is the first to go to battle."

"Looking at what you said, it seems that you are going to risk your life to be a sister with your sister."

Concubine Ning smiled, stretched out her hand subconsciously, and touched her belly.

Isn't it just taking my own life to be your sister? If you are not careful, you will be counted into it!
"Sister, did yesterday's cakes taste good? Today, my sister brought a special one that is different from yesterday's. Sister, try to see which one is delicious?"

Shang Kelan handed it over, and there were two court ladies standing far away, she couldn't ask to try it for her, but she had already distributed the box yesterday to the servants to eat.

Seeing that it was nothing serious, she smiled, but she didn't dare to speak easily, but now it's all brought to her mouth...

"Oh, you see, my sister almost forgot that my sister was pregnant. Her appetite must be different. Why don't you let Concubine Hua try it first, and if it tastes good, then give it to my sister. It's safe."

When Shang Kelan said this, Concubine Ning's expression relaxed a lot, but Concubine Hua looked at the strange-looking thing in the box, and she refused in her heart.

But when she thought about what Concubine Ning said yesterday, she became ruthless in her heart, picked one up and ate it, it was soft and sticky and not sticky to the teeth, it was filled with filling, and it tasted really good.

Seeing how delicious she was eating, Concubine Ning smacked her mouth, picked one up and tasted one too.

"Sister, how does it taste?"

"Very good. I didn't expect my sister's craftsmanship to be so good. This food is even more delicious than yesterday's."

Heh, but it clearly tastes the same as yesterday's...

Shang Kelan still smiled quietly, her eyes lit up when she saw the things in Concubine Hua's hand, but she remained silent.

"I heard that His Majesty has rewarded you with many things, and my sister has nothing to show for it, so I gave the treasured ones to my sister."

Concubine Hua took out a box of balm from her hand. The box was exquisite and elegant, with emerald agate inlaid on it. When it was opened, the aroma rushed to the face, but it didn't make people feel pungent. It was indeed a good thing.

"Wait, this sister is useless!"
