There were low voices coming from the bedroom, which could not be heard clearly, but what could be heard was that the emperor was probably comforting Xin Concubine. After a while, Xin Concubine's whimpering sounds were heard again.

Xin Bin has woken up, but how can she feel better?

On the contrary, the more I thought about it, the more heartbroken I became.

She was already weak after giving birth, and because of the shock of falling into the water and the cold, she felt a little hot. She cried for a while and fell asleep again.

The emperor sighed lowly. Concubine Xin's behavior really made him worried and angry.

After a while, the emperor issued a decree, asking Concubine Shu and Concubine Jing to continue the investigation and not to abuse the criminal law. The prince and the third prince went to the west hall to wait, and the rest of the people dispersed.

There is another decree. Concubine Xin will be promoted to Concubine Xin from now on, and the ceremony will be held after she returns to Beijing.

Concubine Shu and others had actually expected that the emperor would definitely compensate Xin's concubine and most likely seal her as a concubine. However, when the imperial edict came down, they still felt a little uncomfortable.

Concubine Shu even felt a little regretful, wondering if she had done the right thing.

The emperor was afraid that he had already suspected her, but there was no evidence, or he had not touched her due to some reasons related to the balance of the court and the harem. But since he had doubts in his heart, he would be tired of her, so why did he need any evidence?

What was even scarier was this, because he didn't say anything and she couldn't even explain.

Not to mention that the look on his face was obviously wrong, but the fact that at this moment, he only left the crown prince and the third prince, but did not give the eldest prince any face, was evidence.

The fourth prince is still young and has not yet participated in government affairs, but what about the eldest prince?

Concubine Shu glanced at Xie Yunshu and felt even more secretly hateful.

The eldest princess also felt that life was boring and left with her head lowered. The third princess glanced at Xie Yunshu coolly and returned without saying a word.

Xie Yunshu slowly returned to her residence.

"Second sister-in-law!"

"Crown Princess"

The second princess and Meng Yuxiu came forward, both of them a little uneasy.

The expressions on the two of them didn't look good either. It was obvious that they didn't have a good rest last night.

I think so. One of them is a princess with no power and no backing, and the other is a guest. They have no news since they came back yesterday, and they dare not ask around. They have no news at all about themselves and the prince, so they don't want to be frightened.

"It's okay," Xie Yunshu smiled and said to Meng Yuxiu: "Originally, I wanted to keep you as a guest and have fun for a few days. But now something has happened, I'm afraid it won't work. I'll send you back and see you another day. How about?"

Xie Yunshu felt somewhat sorry.

Meng Yuxiu smiled hurriedly and said: "The Crown Princess is too polite. It's just the minister who is bothering me. I wish I didn't bring any trouble to the Crown Princess."

"Of course not."

Xie Yunshu immediately handed Meng Yuxiu to Aunt You and asked her to make arrangements.

After Aunt You led the people away, the second princess hurriedly whispered to Xie Yunshu: "Second sister-in-law, Axiu stayed at Miss Fang's place yesterday. I just went to invite her over this morning."

Even if the prince and Xie Yunshu didn't come back last night, this courtyard would still be their residence. As an outsider and a girl, it would be inappropriate for Meng Yuxiu to spend the night here.

Xie Yunshu felt pity after hearing this, and said softly: "You are thoughtful and careful in doing things, which is good."

The second princess was very happy to be praised, and she smiled a little embarrassedly: "This is as it should be. Second sister-in-law treats me so well, I can't cause trouble to second sister-in-law." "How can we really be so careful!" Xie Yunshu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. .

The two of them entered the room and sat down. They exchanged a few common words. Xie Yunshu sighed softly and told the second princess about Xin's miscarriage.

I'm afraid this matter hasn't spread yet, and no one dares to spread it.

Besides, the second princess didn't have many connections, so no one else would tell her this except herself. Even if others knew about it, she might not know about it.

But if you don’t know anything, wouldn’t it be troublesome if something goes wrong and something happens? So I still have to say it.

The second princess exclaimed in low voice, her face turned pale.

"How, how could this happen? Concubine Xin must be extremely sad."

Xie Yunshu sighed softly: "Empress Xinbi didn't know she was pregnant. She was frightened when she fell into the water, and the lake was cold, so she suffered such a disaster. Empress Xinbin - now she is Empress Xinfei. Now she is heartbroken. My father is in a state of despair. It's also extremely bad. Second sister, if you can, don't go out for the next two days, and just stay in this courtyard peacefully. Just tell me what you need."

After thinking for a while, she added: "Even if someone asks the second sister out for something, no matter who it is, the second sister must tell me first."

"Yes!" The second princess nodded quickly: "Second sister-in-law, don't worry, I'm not going anywhere."

Who dares to go out and wander around at this time? It's easy to get into trouble.

Maybe there is nothing to do, maybe my father will be furious if he sees anyone with a smile on their face right now.

She has been neglected in the palace since she was a child, but she understands the warmth and warmth of human relationships better than anyone else.

It was rare for her second sister-in-law to treat her like this, and she would cherish it.

The second princess stood up and said with a soft smile: "Second sister-in-law must be tired too, please rest quickly. I'm going back to my room. If second sister-in-law is bored, come talk to me again."

Xie Yunshu felt warm in her heart, nodded slightly and smiled: "Well, you go ahead."

Although she and the Crown Prince received special treatment from the Emperor last night and were able to rest in the side hall for half the night, they still could not completely relax and rest, and there was no bed, which was better than Concubine Shu and the First Prince. Strength is also limited.

Now that I'm back on my own territory, my tense spirit has relaxed, and I'm really feeling a little tired.

As soon as the second princess left, Xie Yunshu didn't even have the energy to eat breakfast. She only drank a few mouthfuls of bird's nest soup and told Aunt You and An Tong to keep an eye on Concubine Shu, Concubine Xin and others in case anything happened. He quickly woke himself up and went back to the bedroom to catch up on his sleep.

Xie Yunshu only knew that she fell asleep soon. She didn't know how long she had been sleeping, but she vaguely felt that something was wrong. She slowly opened her eyes and saw the prince sitting on the edge of the bed.

She was so frightened that she immediately opened her eyes and turned over to sit up——

"Prince!"

"Lie down, did I wake you up?" The prince held her down and chuckled: "I came back to change my clothes and take a look at you. I didn't expect to wake you up. Nothing happened over there, don't worry."

Xie Yunshu felt relieved now, "I have been sleeping for a long time, and I should have woken up. Does the prince still want to go out?"

The prince nodded: "A lot of memorials have been sent from the capital today. My father is not in the mood to take care of them at the moment. I have asked Gu and my third brother to handle them as appropriate."

Dealing with it as appropriate means don't bother him if it's not a big deal!

Xie Yunshu said "hmm" and thought that the emperor was interested in Concubine Xin, but that was all he could do. Even if he had doubts, he could not stir up trouble in the harem at all costs.
