Poor children

Chapter 203 Grievance and Suffering Are All Practices
一
"Yo! Sister, I heard that you are still sick and have just had a miscarriage. Why did you come to me suddenly? If you need anything, just send the servant to tell me." Zhihui sat on a chair picking dried fruits, relying on her current Steward, it’s like his butt is glued to the chair, and he doesn’t even lift it

"I'm not in the way." Pao'er put his hand on Qiu Tao's hand. He was still very weak. "I'm afraid that I won't be able to get back and forth clearly for some things, and I'm also afraid that I won't have the face."

"Oh? I wonder if sister has anything to tell me?" Zhihui threw away the dried fruit in her hand and dusted her hands. The poor boy entered the palace and didn't even have a cup of tea.

"It's not an important matter. My mother's family..." The poor boy lost too much blood and walked too much, so he couldn't speak properly.
"Fourth uncle?" Zhihui looked at her fingernails again. There were several slaves standing inside and outside the hall, but none of them came to pour tea.

"Yes, the second lady of the Regent's Palace knew that I was sick and was so anxious that she cried at home. She would not be relieved if she didn't see me with her own eyes. She has been sick a lot in recent years and is weak. I am worried She was overly sad and fell ill, so she wanted to ask her sister for a decree to invite the second wife of the regent to come to the palace..." Pao'er's humble appearance further encouraged Zhihui's arrogance.

"Huh!" Zhi Hui smiled disdainfully, humming "Prince Regent! Such a great name, who in this world doesn't know how he came to be the regent king? The world of his ancestors has been abandoned by him , he still has the nerve to show off."

"Sister, be careful what you say!" The poor man was very angry in his heart, but because Tian Xing was not good at it, he said, "The regent abandoned his ancestors and surrendered to the new dynasty. Zhihui, didn't you also become the queen of the new dynasty?"

"You!" Zhihui was speechless for a moment when the poor boy said, "Now that my sister has said this, I think there is no need to pretend to be decent. There are rules in the palace, and the second wife of the regent is not allowed to enter the palace."

After hearing this, the poor boy stopped talking, stood up and left without looking back.
"You are right to do this. You are a dignified princess, but you are still afraid of her being a bastard who is a cheap servant?" The old lady from the previous dynasty only came out from behind when she saw the poor boy leaving. With old and new grudges, the old lady wanted to kill her in her heart. It would be better if the poor boy's body was cut into thousands of pieces
"Yes, grandma..." Zhihui didn't finish her words, but was accompanied by a burst of retching.

"What's wrong with you?" The old lady hurriedly patted her on the back
"Maybe I ate too much dried fruit just now, and I feel a little nauseous." Zhihui resisted retching, but she still felt like she was reeling.
When the old queen saw her look, she felt happy in her heart, "Isn't my grandson pregnant? Go to the imperial doctor quickly..."

"I...I'm pregnant?" Zhihui asked doubtfully
"I think it's almost the same. You must give birth to a fat and white prince so that you can live in a stable harem and hold the world in your hands."

"The queen of Changle Palace is too much." Qiu Tao helped the poor boy lie down on the couch, but he felt extremely angry in his heart.

"Forget it, it's useless to talk more." The poor boy closed his eyes because he was weak. "Qiu Tao, go out of the palace now and see the second lady at the Regent's Palace. Just pick up the good ones and tell her about her health." Don’t come and see her if you’re weak. I’ll go see her in a few days when I have free time.”

Qiutao had no choice but to take her life and leave the palace.

The pauper asked Qiu Huai to cook a medicinal soup to replenish qi and blood. She thought that she wanted to get better as soon as possible so that she could leave the palace. As long as she saw the second lady, she would not be so worried.
"Master, how long are you going to endure this?" Chanyu felt distressed when she saw that Pao'er had gone out for a trip, and her complexion became even worse after she came back.

"Just keep enduring it. This is His Majesty's harem. It's the same whoever makes the decision. What's more, she's pregnant, so we have to give her more help," Pao'er said weakly.
"She's pregnant?" Chanyu was shocked

"I looked at her complexion, body shape, and the way she was eating, and I could tell." After all, the poor child has good medical skills and is a mother, so she is even more sensitive to this matter.

"Master, why are you so calm?" Chanyu looked a little anxious.
"Why shouldn't I calm down?" Pao'er thought for a moment. "Are you afraid that he will threaten my son's status by giving birth to a prince for His Majesty?" "With her temperament and the way she has done things recently, if she gives birth to a prince, she will let us How are your two highnesses doing?" Chanyu's worries are indeed reasonable.
"They are all His Majesty's sons..." Pao'er rubbed his sore temples, "Besides, Your Majesty has already made Hongwen the Crown Prince, can she still change the imperial edict?"

"I think the master should be careful..."

Three days later, the poor son thought that he was almost ready to be raised, so he prepared to go out of the palace to see the second wife, but he was blocked at the gate of the palace.
"Why don't you let us out?" Qiutao quarreled with the soldiers guarding the door.

"Girl, please don't get angry at me. This is the queen's wish. I'm just following orders," the soldier replied.

"Isn't Her Majesty the Queen right in front of you right now?" Qiu Tao pointed to Paoer's bicycle frame, "Are you blind?"

"Back to the girl, I'm not blind. It's just that Her Majesty the Queen doesn't care about things. The Queen of Changle Palace has issued an order again. The palace rules are strict. No one can leave the palace without an order." The soldier argued again.

"Well, you don't know what to do..." Qiu Tao raised her hand and slapped the soldier's face, but was stopped by the poor boy

"Forget it, let's go back. There's no need to embarrass him." Pao'er sighed and said, "Go directly to Changle Palace. I'll just ask for the order and then go out..."

"Forgive me that I can't give this decree to my sister." Zhihui became extremely squeamish after she meditated and confirmed that she was pregnant. The best food and drinks in the palace were kept close to her.
"I don't know why?" Paoer asked.

"Even in ordinary people's homes, there is no reason for a married daughter to run home every two days. With a status like my sister's, she should set an example for the people in the world. How can she always leave the palace and return to her parents' home all day long?" Zhihui speaking of

"I just went out to see my mother, and then I will come back. I will come back before sunset. I will never go back again." The poor boy prayed almost humbly.
"Sister, it's better not to be so willful. If everyone comes to beg for this and that, how can I take care of this matter?"

"You..." Pao'er stood up from the chair suddenly, and felt his eyes go dark again. It took him a long time to recover.
Zhihui was feeling proud when she saw her like this, but she saw Tianxing entering the courtyard from a distance.
She hurriedly knelt down in front of the poor boy and said with sobs, "No matter what, for the sake of the child in my sister's belly, I beg her not to be angry. Zhihui is young and ignorant, and her inability to adapt to things has annoyed her sister. If you're angry, just punish me, but the child in your belly is innocent, please sister, don't hurt him."

Pao'er was puzzled when he saw her acting like this. He looked up and saw Tian Xing walking into the hall, looking at her with an unhappy expression.

Only then did Pao'er understand the intention of Zhihui's behavior. She was not in a hurry to explain, let alone panic. She just looked at Tian Xing calmly.
Tian Xing understood all kinds of reasons. He knew best about being a poor child. She would never embarrass anyone. What's more, Zhihui was pregnant now. She loved her child the most, especially his child. The wife's child, the poor child is her own, she will never harm his child...
