Black Moonlight, after her robbery

Time flies by like water. One day, after a sweet nap, I wake up still feeling lazy and weak. The newly replaced gauze curtains overlap and hang down, as if there is a person standing in front of the bed.

In the haze, I smelled a strange medicinal fragrance, which seemed to have a bit of blood, stimulating my taste buds and making me feel unspeakably nauseated.

Ti Zhen sat up and asked casually: "What is it?"

But Hu Julan's voice sounded warmly, and he raised the curtain and smiled: "Princess, are you awake?"

Ti Zhen was stunned, not expecting her to come, "Is your injury healed?"

Hu Julan pursed her lips and said, "Thanks to the princess who ordered Dr. Su to diagnose and treat me, I recovered quickly. Even the scars are gone now. Why don't I just want to come over and pay my respects to the princess today? I don't want the princess to take a nap, so I just wait." It’ll be a while.”

She looked at the medicine cup on the table, "Did you bring this medicine...?"

"I cooked it in my own courtyard. I specially asked for the anti-fetal prescription from the palace and brought it to the princess to warm it up."

Hu Julan picked up the medicine cup and poured a bowl, with tears in her eyes for a moment, "Your Highness has had a hard life, and it took until today for her to show her strength. Over the past few years, the Princess and Your Highness have shared the joys and sorrows, and their contribution is unmatched by me. I still remember it today." , when the Wang family was overbearing, who protected my concubine?"

This statement seemed false but not true. Ti Zhen looked at her carefully and wondered. Not only did Wang not show up when he punished her that day, but he also had his own plans for pushing her into the lake.He was mistakenly regarded as his benefactor by her, either because he was really stupid, or because he had lived in the palace for a long time, and he knew how to act.

Seeing that Ti Zhen didn't say anything, Hu Julan took the medicine cup and handed it over with both hands, pleading: "Princess, just drink."

The closer the medicine was, the more fishy smell became stronger. Ti Zhen became more and more surprised and confused, "What kind of medicine is this? Why is the smell so strong?"

Hu Julan held it carefully, took a sip, and said, "I've already drank it, there's nothing wrong with me."

Ti Zhen didn't understand her intention and just stared at her.

Hu Julan smiled brightly and said: "Is the princess really going to separate from my concubine?"

As soon as he raised his hand, a thick ring of snow-white gauze on his arm suddenly appeared under the sleeve.

Ti Zhen held her arm and asked, "What's going on?"

"It's nothing, I got hurt accidentally." After saying that, he hurriedly pulled up his sleeves to cover up.

Ti Zhen refused to say anything and held her arm tightly. The gauze was wrapped tightly, but there was still blood oozing out.

He seemed to realize something, and he was shocked and confused at the same time: "You..."

He hesitated and turned his gaze to the bowl of thick black concoction.

Hu Julan slowly shed tears: "Yes. Ancient books say that cutting meat to feed a relative can cure diseases. I heard that the princess has been in various discomforts since she was pregnant, so I thought, if I cut meat for the princess, would it also ensure that the princess is safe? The delivery is safe, mother and child are safe."

She was so moved that she burst into tears, but Ti Zhen was filled with astonishment, "You're crazy - that's just a folk remedy in an ancient book, how can you take it seriously? Besides, I was also weak during my first pregnancy, and I've already recovered from it."

Hu Julan shook his head and said, "I don't understand. I just hope that the princess and the child are safe."

Her tears fell on her skirt drop by drop, turning into moist circles. Her deep sadness was like a bird's wings with white feathers wetted by dew.

"I know that I am not liked by His Highness, so I have no hope in this life. Now that Meiren Zhao is dead, Wen Liangyuan is gone, and the Wang family has also fallen into disgrace. Now the only concubine in the palace who can rely on is the princess."

Her attitude was firm and awe-inspiring: "I am helpless in the house, and I just want to live my life peacefully. As long as the princess can protect me for the rest of my life, I am willing not to be favored by the princess in my life, and only to be with the princess."

Every word of Hu Julan's words stirred Ti Zhen's heart.After all, she was afraid that she would follow in the footsteps of others, so she came here to express her love to her.

In fact, Ti Zhen never thought about targeting her, let alone wanting her to die. It was just that some people had to be eliminated and some things had to be done, but as long as they were done, innocent people would be hurt.There was nothing she could do about this.

Hu Julan's plaintive voice continued: "Princess, I know that I can't compare to the friendship that Mrs. Zhou and Miss Huo grew up with you. Even you have a grudge against me coming into the house, but the care you showed when I first entered the house was not completely unsincere." , just these, I will never forget."

As he spoke, he burst into tears without realizing it, and his eyes turned into pleading ones.

Ti Zhen looked at her face like this, and it was true that as she said, every woman sent to the princess did not have a complete self, and they were all under the control of those in power.

It's just that she has experienced so many battles and lacks trust in human nature itself, so even if Hu Julan sheds tears, it is only a faint smile on the surface.

"As long as you keep yourself safe, you will be safe for the rest of your life...so why do you need to cut your flesh and make medicine to harm your body?"

Silently, he added, "You have been a beauty for two or three years." Then he looked at Wenxiu and said, "Pass my order to make Hu the beautiful lady your beloved."

Hu Julan had a smile on her face, and the traces of tears falling down were twists and turns, which made people look extremely sad in her eyes.

He said forcefully every word: "Thank you, Princess, for your love. Now I can feel at ease."

After greeting each other about some common matters, it was time for dinner, and they separated for a while.

Wenxiu stared at the bowl of cold medicine, "Girl..."

"I won't drink medicine that is not prescribed by Wu Binsheng. Take it out and pour it somewhere where no one is."

Unconsciously, his eyes rested on that small figure.

The unpredictability of people's hearts is too dangerous. Even if they are easy to meet on the surface, they must keep a thin line in their hearts.

After that day's heart-to-heart talk, Ti Zhenming treated Hu Julan more affectionately, and the treatment at Yilan Court also increased, and he often came to say hello.The counting house also called the craftsmen from Shifu to come over and renovate it.

As for the news from Cao Er, the response was as light as water. On the contrary, the only turmoil was the encounter with bandits on the way, and no other major events happened.

Sometimes not moving makes people more suspicious than moving.Although he didn't know much about it, he wanted to explore it more and more, so Cao Er was not sent back.

When Xianyu came to her home, she was too surprised. "What kind of person is Xiao Li? He has a hundred and eight minds. If Xiangguo really dares to take action in the spring of Wei Dynasty, how can he tell you?"

Then he patted her arm and said, "I think he is trying to scare you. How capable is he? If he says he's going to step in, he's going to step in. Does Chunwei belong to his family? Besides, this pregnant woman is prone to overthinking." , I think he just wants to make you angry on purpose, so it’s not good to fall for it.”

"But before the sandstorm comes, the desert is always calm, isn't it?" Ti Zhen said silently.

What's more, the feeling of panic is not wrong. If this is the case, why won't she feel resentful?

Pingyang Street was deserted at night, with fine snow already falling. I saw an indigo shadow holding an umbrella and walking into an alley, and then a man in a snow-green coat slowly approached.

"Spring is coming soon. I can only help you until now. As for whether you can be selected, it depends on your luck."

The man in blue smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know it well, and I will not forget to give you my promise when things are done. Shi Fang will be divided equally between us, and the princess... will be yours."

The man in purple smiled and said, "It stands to reason that you hate her so much, how can I trust you not to make a mistake?"

"I've known her for four years. How could I not know her character, which is conceited and suspicious? Otherwise, she wouldn't have transferred all the experts around her just for a mere word."

After that, he smiled sadly, "As for personal hatred...Rather than letting her die, I want her to live with you, which is the most painful thing...Marquis Wu'an."
