"Thank you, ma'am!" Concubine Xin gently fussed behind her, and sat next to Wei Ning'er. 【 】

"According to calculations, the sixth princess is already nine months old, but I seldom see her. When my younger sister is free, let's take her to play in my palace's Zuixin Garden!" Wei Ning'er laughed.

"Yes!" Concubine Xin didn't want to have a deeper relationship with Wei Ning'er, so she just responded casually.

"Niang Niang, it's getting late, you should go back, otherwise the emperor will not find you in Zuixin Garden, you should be in a hurry!" Qing Yan whispered beside Wei Ning'er.

"Forget it, let's go back, we have to test Yongxuan's homework later!" Wei Ning'er showed a smile on her face, and said to Concubine Xin: "I'm going back to the palace first!"

"Respectfully send off the empress!" Concubine Xin gently blessed her body.

Wei Ning'er nodded lightly, took two steps, but turned her head and said with a smile: "Sister, what the Japanese Palace said to you was sincere, if my sister has any difficulties, feel free to tell this Palace!"

"Thank you for your kindness, my concubine has been doing well these days, please take care of me!" Concubine Xin didn't want to talk too much, and politely declined.

However, Wei Ning'er walked up to her with a smile, and under Concubine Xin's eyes full of doubts, she reached out and pulled out the jade hairpin from her head, handed it to Concubine Xin, and said softly, "I know that there are some things that my younger sister also understands." It is inconvenient to say, this jade hairpin is given to my younger sister, and if something happens in the future, my younger sister will order someone to bring the jade hairpin to find me.”

Wei Ning'er made a promise to Concubine Xin, a promise to repay her for saving her life.

Concubine Xin looked at the jade hairpin with a complicated expression, took it after a while, and said with a smile: "Concubine, thank you for your kindness!"

Wei Ning'er smiled and patted Concubine Xin's hand, feeling a little relieved in her heart. Although Concubine Xin was no longer the ignorant, gentle and kind lady in Dai Jia's other courtyard in the south of the Yangtze River, Wei Ning'er knew that Concubine Xin was kind by nature. , she would not do anything out of the ordinary, although she wanted to make friends with Concubine Xin, but...Concubine Xin came from the Queen just now.

Wei Ning'er didn't want to be enemies with Concubine Xin, she just hoped that the two of them wouldn't be in a life-and-death situation. Naturally... she would definitely repay the favor of saving her life.

Concubine Xin felt hairy when she saw Wei Ning'er's gentle gaze, she subconsciously took a few steps back, the two of them were already at the edge of the lotus pond, because she was too nervous, she was a little nervous, but her high-soled shoes stepped on it. On the small steps at the edge of the lotus pond, the whole person fell into the lotus pond at once.

Wei Ning'er had quick hands and quick eyes, and grabbed Concubine Xin's hand, but she was not strong enough to grab Concubine Xin, she also staggered herself, and both of them fell into the lotus pond.

This happened in the blink of an eye, and the servants didn't have time to react. After the two fell into the water, they shouted in a hurry, and those who knew the water immediately jumped to save others.

It was not the first time for Wei Ning'er to fall into the water, but she was also extremely nervous with her big belly. After splashing in the water a few times, she was rescued by the servants.

"Your Majesty..." Qing Yan and the others broke out in cold sweat, quickly supported Wei Ning'er, and said to the servants beside him, "Hurry up and send Your Majesty back to the palace!"

Seeing Wei Ning'er being sent away by a group of servants, Concubine Xin was standing by the lotus pond with her whole body wet, her face pale.

"Little master, let's go back to the palace to summon the imperial physician, or you will get sick!" Wu'er knew that her master was very weak when she was young, and if she was not careful, she would catch a cold.

Concubine Xin grabbed Wu'er's hand, and said in a trembling voice, "You said... will Concubine Ling tell the emperor that I caused her to fall into the water?"

Wu'er's face changed drastically when she heard the words, and she said in a low voice after a while, "My lord, it probably won't be, she is the one who wants to reach out to pull you, not you who want to drag her into the water!"

"But Your Majesty doesn't think so!" Concubine Xin felt so confused that she lost her mind for a while.

"My lord, let's go back to the palace for now!" Wu'er persuaded softly.

Concubine Xin was trembling all over, and with Wu'er's support, she climbed onto the shoulders.

After Wei Ning'er was sent back to Zuixin Garden by the crowd, someone went to announce the imperial physician. After working for about an hour, the imperial physician confirmed that she had not moved her fetus, so she was relieved.

When the emperor learned that Wei Ning'er fell into the water, he was furious, and ordered the servants around her to take good care of her.

"Your majesty, my concubine is fine, you don't have to worry!" Wei Ning'er looked at the emperor and said softly.

"Ning'er, you can't leave Zuixinyuan without my company from now on. Naturally, I will find time to accompany you every day!" The emperor held her hand, looked at her pale face, and said with distress .

"En!" Wei Ning'er nodded slightly.

"Concubine Xin is too careless!" The emperor suddenly recalled Qingyan's report just now, knowing that Concubine Xin had something to do with Wei Ning'er falling into the water.

"Your Majesty, it's my concubine's carelessness, and it has nothing to do with Concubine Xin!" Wei Ning'er said anxiously, fearing that the emperor would anger Concubine Xin.

But the emperor said in a deep voice: "When Concubine Xin first entered the palace, she was innocent and romantic, with a quiet and docile temperament. Later, she became arrogant because of favors, and wanted to exclusively pamper her in the harem. I... gradually alienated her. Now even if I go to see her... She, she also looks resentful, how can I feel at ease?"

Wei Ning'er laughed and said: "The concubine remembers that the emperor's love for concubine Xin was unmatched at that time, and the sixth princess was still in the womb, so the emperor ordered a blessing banquet!"

The emperor gently caressed Wei Ning'er's face, and said with a smile: "If there is no blessing banquet, you will probably return to the palace a few days later, right?"

"Your majesty..." Wei Ning'er looked at the emperor with surprise in her eyes.

"Ning'er, I was kind to her back then. First, she saved your mother and son. Second, she really didn't annoy me at that time. Presumably Ruoyan also told you what happened back then. That's just one of them. , I have to add more fire to bring you back!" The emperor said this, and gently hugged Wei Ning'er: "You really did not live up to my expectations!"

When Wei Ning'er heard the words, she didn't know what to say for a while, and said after a while: "Anyway...the concubine can't let the emperor punish Concubine Xin, the concubine's falling into the water has nothing to do with her!"

"Okay!" The emperor nodded slightly.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Xin is just pestering the Emperor a lot, so you don't like her. Concubine... is even worse than Concubine Xin. One day... won't it annoy the Emperor even more!" Wei Ning'er took a deep breath and said .

"When you were just pregnant, I asked Li Taiyi carefully, and I learned that pregnant people like to think wildly. I still didn't believe it. Now I see, it really is so!" The emperor gently stroked her shoulder and said with a smile .

"Your Majesty!" How could Wei Ning'er not know that the Emperor was teasing her.

The emperor looked at Wei Ning'er fixedly, and said seriously: "I have never been bored with you, never before, not now, and never in the future, I forbid you to compare yourself with these people in the palace, you are in my heart It's different from them! If you dare to say such a thing next time, be careful and I will punish you!"

When Wei Ning'er heard this, her pretty face blushed slightly, and she nodded slightly.

The days went by in July, and seeing that the emperor hadn't gone to the Rehe Palace, the empress became a little anxious, and carefully reminded the queen mother a few times, but the queen didn't pay any attention to it, which made her and concubine Xin flustered .

"Isn't the emperor going to the Rehe Palace this year?" Concubine Xin asked in a low voice.

"Impossible!" The queen shook her head fiercely: "The emperor hasn't missed a single year in these years, and...the matter in Junggar is very troubled now, the emperor will definitely take advantage of the visit to the Mulan paddock to discuss with the princes of various Mongolian ministries! "

"But it's already July now!" Concubine Xin sighed.

In all fairness, she didn't want to be an enemy of Wei Ning'er, especially after the lotus pond incident last time, she was not punished, and the emperor even gave her sixth princess a name. She knew that this must be Wei Ning'er in front of the emperor. I begged for her, but... the more this happened, the more uncomfortable she felt, she didn't want others' charity, she wanted to control her own destiny in her own hands, not relying on the queen or concubine Ling.

"Wait a little longer, maybe the emperor wants to wait for the concubine Ling to give birth to a child, what a pity!" The queen was full of displeasure, the emperor cared so much about the concubine Ling that it was difficult for her to do anything.

On July [-]th, Wei Ning'er successfully gave birth to the princess in the Zuixin Garden. The emperor was overjoyed, smiling from ear to ear hugging the newborn princess.

"Look, this little face really looks like Lingfei's, but her eyes are more like the emperor's. When she grows up, she must be more beautiful than her mother-in-law." The Queen Mother looked at the child, beaming with joy.

"Grandmother... let me see..." Yongxuan asked, shaking the Queen Mother's hand.

"Okay!" The queen mother hugged the child from the emperor's arms and said with a smile: "Yongxuan, look at your sister, the most beautiful little princess of the Ai family!"

"Grandmother, my sister's face is so red and wrinkled..." Yong Xuan frowned after seeing it.

"You must have been like this when you were just born. After a while, the little princess of the Ai family will be a little beauty!" The queen mother laughed.

"Grandmother, what's your sister's name?" Yong Xuan touched the princess's little hand and asked.

"According to the rules of the ancestors, names can only be given when you grow up. No matter what, the Ai family made an exception today and named the seventh princess. The highest kindness is like water, and water is good for all things without fighting. This is the virtue of humility... Let's call it Ruoshui. !” The Queen Mother laughed.

When the Queen heard this, the smile on her face froze. Her fifth princess did not have a name until she died, but the Queen Mother gave the newborn concubine Ling a name. Such a big contrast made it hard for the Queen to accept for a while.

Concubine Chun and others kept praising the beauty of the Seventh Princess and the name bestowed by the Empress Dowager, and the hall was full of joy for a while.

The emperor was accompanying Wei Ning'er in the dormitory, at this time she had woken up, but her body was very weak.

"The emperor... where is the princess?" Wei Ning'er asked.

"Don't worry, the princess is in the main hall, and the empress is holding her. I'll get someone to carry it to you in a while!" The emperor said softly while holding her hand.

"En!" Wei Ning'er nodded slightly.

The emperor compensated Wei Ning'er for a while, and then went outside the hall, ready to report the princess back to the bedroom, but learned that the queen mother gave the princess a name.

"It seems that the name I prepared for the little princess can only be given to her younger sister!" The emperor put the seventh princess beside Wei Ning'er and said with a smile.

Wei Ning'er was also very surprised, after all... this was the first time the queen mother gave a name to a princess, and it was just when the child was born, Wei Ning'er didn't understand why the queen mother was so kind to her all of a sudden.
