Chapter 42

In the Palace of Mental Cultivation, Xiao Bairan was still reading the memorial. Eunuch Ji came forward holding a tray, which contained the signs of concubines in the harem: "Your Majesty, it's getting late!"

Xiao Bairan looked up at the tray, then continued to look at the memorial: "Liushangju."

"Yes." Ji Gonggong bowed and retreated knowingly.

Not long after Ji Gonggong left, another chanting sound came from outside the palace: "The empress is here, the crown prince is here!"

Xiao Bairan frowned, closed the memorial: "Xuan!"

The door of the palace creaked open, and Zhou Bingqian walked in with a small figure carved in pink and jade, with a loving smile all over her face: "Yu'er, quickly call father emperor!"

Xiao Yu was already one year and five months old, and it was time for him to babble. He waved his arms that looked like lotus root joints, and called indistinctly, "Father!"

The sword eyebrows were relaxed, Xiao Bairan's calm complexion became a little softer.He smiled and stretched out his arms to hug him and walked towards the apse, asking as he walked, "Does Yu'er miss her father?"

"Think." Xiao Yu nodded.

"Yu'er wanted to come to the Hall of Mental Cultivation just because she missed her father, and she was still hungry!" Zhou Bingqian laughed.

After the family of three sat down, Zhou Bingqian took the freshly cooked lotus root noodle soup from Ziyu, scooped a spoonful, blew on it, and brought it to Xiao Yu's mouth: "Good boy, take a quick bite."

Xiao Yu obediently took a bite, Zhou Bingqian scooped up a second spoonful and coaxed Xiao Yu to eat it patiently.

Today she didn't wear a phoenix robe or a phoenix crown, she just wore a simple homely palace attire, caring for her child carefully like a real mother.

Xiao Bairan silently watched her feed the child, and a long-lost warm current rose in his heart: "Yu'er is lucky to have a mother like you!"

"Why didn't your majesty say it was the concubine's blessing!" Zhou Bingqian laughed angrily, "Both the emperor and Yu'er are the concubine's blessings from the concubine's previous life!"

"It's also my blessing." Xiao Bairan said, but looked past Zhou Bingqian to the night outside the window.

That night, Zhou Bingqian stayed in the Hall of Mental Cultivation as a matter of course...

***************
In Liushangju, Zishan has long heard that the emperor turned over her brand again, but waited and waited, seeing that the night was getting darker and darker, and Yu Jia never appeared.She walked out of the dormitory and came to the gate of Liushangju to look around.

Seeing this scene from a distance, Xiao Peixue sneered in her heart: After all, she was born as a slave, so petty!She walked over with someone to say hello: "Why is Liu Guiren standing at the door?"

"Princess?" Zishan was taken aback for a moment, then lowered her eyebrows respectfully.

"Are you waiting for the emperor?" Xiao Peixue stood still in front of her, "There is no need to wait, the empress empress took the crown prince to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

Zishan's heart sank, and she nodded disappointedly: "Princess Xie, make a point!"

She has Yue Linxiang, and Zhou Bingqian has Xiao Yu in her hands!The child who was established as the crown prince from birth was favored by the emperor.

It would be great if she could also give birth to a prince.

"Your honor is disappointed?" Xiao Peixue asked with a smile.

"The emperor is busy with government affairs, the harem is full of rain and dew, and the concubines dare not be disappointed. Why doesn't the eldest princess rest at this late hour?" Zishan said, she has served two queens, and she speaks very methodically.

"It's a good night tonight, so I'll go outside for a walk, I don't want to pass by the nobleman's Liushangju, I saw the lights are on, so I stopped by to have a look, I wonder if the nobleman welcomes you?"

"Of course welcome! Princess please!"

Liushangju is just a small palace, and this is the smallest of the many palaces in Yungong.But this palace has a different meaning.

Outsiders don't understand Xiao Peixue, but they do know that Feiyi means red clothes. When Feiyi's sister-in-law first married into Xiao's family, she once danced a dance, and the red dress fluttered in the dance, as if a nine-day fairy descended to earth, so beautiful.

This Liushangju was built by the emperor for Feiyi's sister-in-law!And Zishan is the only one who survived after serving Feiyi's sister-in-law!Brother Huang pampered her and even gave her Liushangju, there must be ulterior motives, right?
"Is the princess's marriage confirmed?"

"Probably so!"

"Beizhou is rich, and my concubine sees that the Northern Prince really likes the princess." Zishan flattered.

"Who knows? Everything is fate." Xiao Peixue shrugged, her eyes fell on Zishan's waist, "The queen gave the concubines the snake-repelling incense today, is this on your waist?"

"Yes!" Zishan smiled, her eyes fell on Xiao Peixue's waist, "Hey, don't you have the eldest princess?"

"Yes, but I am about to get married, so it is not suitable to wear it."

Zishan's complexion changed drastically.

Xiao Peixue casually raised her hand and licked the hair hanging from her ears, and then walked out: "Okay, this is all I can say, and you can figure out what to do in the future!"

"Thank you, Eldest Princess!" Zishan blessed Xiao Peixue respectfully and sent Xiao Peixue out of Liushangju.

It wasn't until Xiao Peixue was gone that Zishan closed the door in a sullen face and hurriedly tore off the sachet from her waist: "I almost forgot what a vicious person she is!"

"But your lord, this is a gift from the empress, why don't you wear it for fear of inappropriateness?" the maid Xin'er whispered.

"But..." Zishan holds the sachet and throws it, and it's not wrong if she doesn't throw it!

After all, she is just a little nobleman, and the current harem Zhou Bingqian absolutely overshadows the sky with one hand.If she hadn't held enough handles in her hands, she would have died several times already!
"There must be something wrong with this sachet!" Zishan gritted her teeth, but finally she didn't dare to throw it away.

"You have no problem with this."

At this moment, a slightly tall maidservant from Beizhou jumped down from the courtyard wall.

Zishan looked at her vigilantly: Isn't this the maid who just left with Xiao Peixue?It is said that Bei Weiqi was sent to the palace to protect Xiao Peixue, named Aping.

"what do you mean……"

"She won't use such a simple method. You are so favored at the moment. If you send this sachet to the imperial doctor for examination, she will be asking for trouble." A Ping said, "Your Excellency, think about it elsewhere."

Zi Shan frowned and thought for a while, then raised her head abruptly, her face full of horror: "The one of the emperor?"

"The nobleman is smart!" A Ping smiled meaningfully.

If the emperor carried a contraceptive sachet with him, it would not only be her, but all the concubines in the harem would not be able to conceive a dragon child.Zhou Bingqian is so bold!But she couldn't do anything about it!
A Ping took out something from his sleeve, handed it to Zishan, and said in a low voice: "My lord, this is the secret medicine from the Northern Palace, which has the effect of helping pregnancy."

What Zishan needs most right now is to conceive a dragon seed!She had also heard from Yan Feiyi about the secrets of the Beizhou court.She looked at the small medicine bag in her hand, as if she had encountered a treasure, she was so excited that she stuttered: "This, this..."

"I hope it can help the nobleman. The princess doesn't know about this, it's just a secret between my master and the nobleman."

Zishan was flattered: "Yes. I just don't know what the Northern Prince wants me to do?"

"My master made an explanation before leaving Beijing, and I hope that the nobleman can take care of our future imperial concubine." A Ping said.

So simple and so reasonable.Zishan nodded hurriedly: "Yes, I will do my best!"
