Poor children

Chapter 141 Is it a disaster for Sai Weng to lose his horse?

"Your Highness, you see, the charcoal they sent is all wet and can't be lit at all." Chanyu was so angry that she threw the brazier to the ground. "Even the food they sent was sour."

"I know we will have a hard time staying here. Why are you anxious?" Pao'er was very calm.

"Weren't those two palace servants replaced by the king? Why is it still like this?" Chanyu didn't understand.
"Those two palace servants were not able to do their job well, and she took advantage of this excuse to find two more capable ones. If I didn't suffer some hardships here, wouldn't she have made this trouble in vain?" Paoer shrank back. In the quilt, "You spread the charcoal in the yard, and when the sun comes out tomorrow, it will dry out, and then you can use it again..."

"But how should we spend tonight? And eat..."

"It will take a while to eat what you and Mrs. Gan brought. As for the charcoal... wait until Laibao comes!"

"Laibao?" Chanyu asked

"With her personality, how could she not come?" Paoer laughed.

"How did she get in there?"

"How could she come in through the gate?"

The two were talking when they heard someone calling sister outside...

"Sister..." Laibao quietly climbed into the temple through the back wall of Changning Temple, looked for the light and found the house where the poor children lived.
"Look! Here it comes!" the poor boy laughed.

Chanyu hurriedly opened the door and let her in.
"Little ancestor, you are really here, come in quickly..."

"It's so cold in this room! Why don't you light a fire?" Laibao asked, rubbing his hands.

"I don't know whose orders those servants got, but what they brought was wet charcoal, and even the rice was rotten..." Chanyu said

"Who else could I have ordered from?" Lai Bao said angrily, "Sister, look what I picked up outside Ruihua Hall..." Lai Bao took out the piece of peach wood from his arms.
"Did you pick it up?" Pao'er reached out from under the quilt and took it. She saw that it was the piece that Fang Shaoqin had given her.

"Yes!"

"Hmm..." Poor pondered for a while, "I didn't take a closer look at the wooden figure at Mrs. Xiao's place that night..."

"Your Highness, since our wood is still there, why don't you go to the King and explain it clearly, so that we can be released," Chanyu said

"No! Now is not the time..." Paoer tucked in the quilt.
"Why?" Lai Bao asked, "Does my sister still have to suffer here?"

"I can't go out right now..."

"What's wrong, Your Highness?" Chanyu asked

"I'm pregnant..." The poor boy arrived
"What!?" Chanyu and Laibao were shocked
"I've been feeling tired these past few days, and I don't like greasy food. Then I remembered that I felt my pulse and found out that I'm pregnant." Most people will be happy when they find out that they are pregnant, but only poor children seem to be worried.
"If my sister is pregnant, she has to go out. It's hard here, and it's not good for the fetus," Noble said.

"Because I'm pregnant, I can't go out. Don't say anything about it. If I'm outside and let others know that I'm pregnant, I'm afraid the child won't be born." The poor boy said, "So now It seems that entering Changning Temple is actually a good thing for me, as long as those two palace people don't find out, I can avoid being harmed here, and I can give birth to the child smoothly..."

"Your Highness is right to think so. This is indeed a safe place, but the environment is indeed a bit harsh." Chanyu arrived
"It's not bad here. I've lived in places that are worse than here. If we need something, Noble will deliver it at night. Wouldn't it be better for us to spend some time here in peace?" Poor boy Laughing, "Then I'll go out now and get you some good charcoal and food first. The baby in my sister's belly needs to eat something good..."

At night, Mrs. Xiao was still in poor condition, lying on the collapse and heartbroken. Seeing that she was like this, Tian Xing found it hard to leave, so he could only stay with her, persuade her, and reward her with many things.

Suddenly Gao Zijing entered the palace overnight and had important government affairs to deal with. Tianxing then came out of Ronghua Palace and returned to Changping Palace to deal with government affairs. He was busy until late at night...

"Deshun!" Tian Xing said to Eunuch Deshun after he was about to rest for a moment, "Do you think the cursed wooden man was made by the queen?"

"Back to your Majesty, Her Royal Highness the Queen is kind-hearted, gentle, courteous and thrifty. Judging from her true feelings towards His Majesty, she is not a jealous person..." Eunuch Deshun pondered for a moment and then said, "I'm afraid there is something in this." Other reasons..."

Tian Xing rubbed his painful temples. He was indeed a little impulsive that night. He ordered her to be locked up without even finding out the reason. She must be very angry now, right?She relied on him so much, but he didn't even give her any trust...

I don’t know how she is doing now?She was still sick, with no blood on her face, and her hands were as cold as a dead person. He wanted to let her out, but the face of his king did not allow him to do so...

"Deshun, the Queen treats you well. You...if you have time, go and see her..." Tian Xing said

Deshun had watched him grow up since he was a child, so he naturally knew what he was thinking, so he hurriedly agreed and said he would go there early tomorrow morning.

The winter in the northwest is not long. It is coming to an end now, and even the wind blowing into the palace is much gentler.
"Ma'am, your uncle is here" Eunuch Shunxi came into the palace to report

"My uncle!? Why is he here again?" Mrs. Xiao asked, "Please come in first!"

"Yu Qian!"

"Hey! Uncle, you're here! Why didn't you tell me earlier? My niece can just come to see you. Why don't you bother to come in person?"

"Eh? What did my niece say? Your grandpa heard that you had a miscarriage and was really worried about you, so he asked me to come to visit..." Jin Di asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

"I'm sorry that my grandfather and uncle are thinking about you. Everything is fine with your son," Mrs. Xiao replied.
"Before leaving, your grandpa asked me to bring you some tonics. I hope you will take good care of your body and don't be too sad or nervous." Master Jin arrived again
"Thank you, grandpa, for remembering..."

"There is another letter." Master Jin mysteriously took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Mrs. Xiao.
"Grandpa wrote me a letter?" Mrs. Xiao asked doubtfully
The Chief Assistant of the Northwest, Mr. Jin Laocheng is not close to his daughter, let alone her niece who is far away in the northwest. Even though she has grown up, Mr. Jin has never seen her and asked him a few times. Why did she have a miscarriage this time? She also asked her uncle to bring her supplements and wrote a personal letter, which really made Mrs. Xiao a little confused.
"Hurry and take it!" Master Jin urged.

"Grandpa wrote to me? What did he write?" Mrs. Xiao took the letter hesitantly.

"You can tell what is written at a glance, so why ask more..." Mr. Jin laughed.
Madam Xiao then opened the envelope, carefully took out the letter paper, and suddenly saw the resolute handwriting on the paper, but the more she read the content of the letter, the uglier her face became and her hands shook more violently
Seeing something was wrong, Shunxi stepped forward and asked, "Madam, are you feeling unwell? Can you call the imperial doctor?"

When Mrs. Xiao was asked, she was startled at first, then slapped the letter and the letter on the table, and shouted, "Get out! Everyone, get out..."
