The fifth wife wants to escape marriage: marry the princess

Chapter 159 Qiurong Pregnant 1
Qiu Rong is pregnant!

Although Ruyi tried her best to conceal it, she still accidentally said that Qiurong was nearly four months pregnant, and the old lady protected her like a treasure.

In the past, Wushuang would feel that it was a very happy thing to marry a man with sister Qiu Rongqing and be together forever.But now, when she loves a man deeply, she feels that some love cannot be shared.

Wushuang shouldn't have any objections to Xiao Junyi marrying Qiu Rong first, after all, although love doesn't talk about first come first come first, but it does in weddings.Even if Xiao Junyi never really married Qiu Rong, in the eyes of the world, she is also his concubine.Wushuang didn't bother with this.

But ever since Xiao Junyi told her that the relationship between him and Qiu Rong was innocent, Wushuang believed it, and firmly believed it.But now that Qiurong is pregnant, how should she explain all this?
When she found out that Qiurong was pregnant, Wushuang was following Ah Xi to learn how to make children's clothes. Every stitch and thread, she sewed with great care, as if giving the child all her love. Her biggest wish now is that the child is safe and sound.As for Xiao Junyi, she was very uneasy. She hoped that he would come back, but she was also afraid that he would be plotted against when he came back. The situation was even more difficult.

After all, he used to be a Queen's Party, and he used to be hostile to the Queen Mother and Xiao Xuanyu everywhere. Now that the Queen is dead, and the ten princes are also dead, Xiao Junyi is the only one left in the Queen's Party. There is also Concubine Yu's brother, General Du, in the General's Palace. It seems that, As far as the court is concerned, as far as the queen mother and the emperor are concerned, there is no need for Xiao Junyi to exist.

I was nervous at first, but Ruyi helped make the clothes and said, "Miss, you are doing it wrong. The sleeves are not sewn like this. I saw Mrs. Rong and the old lady did it. You did it wrong. It should be like this, Sew here..."

"Qiu Rong did it? Why did she make children's clothes?" Wushuang grasped the point sensitively.

Ruyi realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, quickly covered her mouth, and shook her head in embarrassment.

Ah Xi interrupted, "Ma'am, how about this color? How about making a wrapped cloak?"

The more they behaved like this, the more Wushuang felt that they had been deliberately concealed. After asking a few questions, how could Ruyi dare to lie to Wushuang?They also make clothes for children, and they also go to Yunhua Temple to pray for blessings.

"Is Qiurong pregnant?" Wushuang was a little confused, she could imagine the happy look of the old lady, she had always longed for a grandson or granddaughter, but why is it Qiurong?
"The old lady also said... She also said that when the general returns, there will be a big banquet to help Mrs. Rong..."

"You're welcome!" Ah Xi interrupted, "Ruyi, you are now in the palace, don't think that you are still outside the palace, talking nonsense."

Facing Ah Xi's reprimand, Ruyi feels aggrieved, but dare not contradict her.She really doesn't understand, Miss Mingming has dissolved the marriage with the general, and now she is married to the emperor, and even has a child, why do she care so much about the general, why should Madam Rong be pregnant?
Xiao Junyi has always said that he has nothing to do with Qiurong. When he set off to the northwest, he also said that when he returned to the court after victory, he would firstly ask the emperor to give them a new marriage, and secondly, explain to the old lady that there is no real relationship between husband and wife with Qiurong. , everything is the old lady's wishful thinking, if she really likes Qiurong, she will adopt her as a foster daughter, and then help her find a good family to marry.

The original plan was so perfect, but now the emperor died and became the former emperor.Even if he came back from victory, there would be no marriage at all, not to mention, she was already the concubine Heng.And Qiu Rong is pregnant, and the position of wife is just around the corner, she Wushuang has nothing to say.

Too many things have long been out of their control. I don't know why, Wu Shuang doesn't have much resentment in his heart, and he doesn't know whether he believes in Xiao Junyi, or he is really numb. He feels that there is no hope for Xiao Junyi, so it doesn't matter. Woolen cloth?

Ah Xie frowned slightly, Ruyi saw Wushuang lost, and finally understood, even if she became the emperor's woman, maybe she still has a general in her heart, after all, a husband and wife can be loved for a hundred days.Therefore, Ruyi did not dare to talk nonsense.The old lady's kindness to Qiurong, the kind of concern, really wished she could take her heart out.And Wushuang, although pregnant with the emperor's child, did not see how the queen mother cared, and seemed very indifferent.

Every time I went to Linglong Palace to greet the Empress Dowager, Ya Fei was always there, she was the Empress Dowager's niece, so naturally she was particularly favored, sitting next to the Empress Dowager, as if she was a queen, and Wushuang even saluted them.

But these Wushuang don't care, but Ruyi feels uncomfortable, always thinking that if this is the general's child, if she is in Xiao's mansion, it will be much better than being in the palace, she must be like the stars.

Chunhua Palace was extremely quiet, Ah Xi and Ru Yi didn't dare to speak, but Wu Shuang said indifferently, "Why don't you move, there are still so many things to do!"

Ah Xi responded, and was about to continue working, when suddenly someone shouted, "The emperor is here!"

Wushuang got up immediately, and led Axi and Ruyi to walk a few steps forward to salute. However, before reaching the door, Xiao Xuanyu came in, supported her firmly with a big hand, and never let her salute. It will be avoided." As he said, he turned his head and said to Li Ping, "Concubine Heng is pregnant, and the imperial doctor specially told her to rest in peace and move around less, so she won't have to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager in the future."

"Yes." Li Ping said respectfully.

Xiao Xuanyu walked into the inner hall holding Wushuang's hand, saw the small pieces of clothes on the table, and said, "What about making clothes?"

Wushuang nodded, "Aunt Ah Xi taught me how to do it!"

"Let the Shangyi Bureau do these things, so you don't have to do it yourself." Xiao Xuanyu said, and then said, "We have won the battle in the Northwest, and I have rewarded the Xiao Mansion. Xiao Junyi has not yet returned to the capital. Mrs. Xiao brought Let my daughter-in-law enter the palace to thank you, I have ordered you to go down and host a banquet, you should also attend!"

Wushuang was about to answer, Ah Xi said, "Your Majesty just said that you are a little tired, I'm afraid it's not suitable to go out."

Xiao Xuanyu nodded, "Then have a good rest."

But Wushuang said, "It's okay, I will accompany the emperor."

While talking, it was getting late, so I asked Ruyi to dress up a little, and accompanied her to Guangying Palace with the emperor.

The old lady and Qiu Rong had arrived long ago, together with several ministers of the court, presumably the emperor invited them to accompany the guests.Wushuang was led in by Xiao Xuanyu, feeling the gazes around her.

Regardless of whether those gazes were respectful or not, Wushuang didn't dare to face them. Staying by Xiao Xuanyu's side and becoming his so-called favorite concubine, she felt like she had done something extremely shameful, and she couldn't even face herself.

At this moment, she suddenly understood Concubine Lan. She used to blame Concubine Lan for why the late emperor was so kind to her, and she still didn't love him.Now I understand how a person who doesn't even have the courage to face up to himself and accept reality can love others?
She saw Qiu Rong, her belly was a bit bigger than Su Xin's, she was supported by a girl, standing beside the old lady, she had the posture of a noble lady, her dress was more expensive than before.

This should be Qiurong No.1 entering the palace. In the past, she was just a concubine, although she is now, but after all, she is pregnant with a child, so her status is different.In the past when Xiao Junyi was around, she never brought her into the palace, but now the old lady takes her wherever she goes, because she has the hope of her Xiao family in her stomach.

Wushuang looked at Qiu Rong, his eyes roving over her increasingly plump body, looking at her swollen belly, he didn't know what it was like.She wants to believe Xiao Junyi's words, but when the facts are in front of her eyes, how can she stick to the trust in her heart? !

Seeing Wushuang looking at her, Qiurong lowered her head inexplicably guilty, pretending to talk to the old lady, avoiding Wushuang's probing eyes.

As Xiao Xuanyu walked all the way to the main seat and sat beside him, the feeling of contemptuously looking down on His Highness did not satisfy her, on the contrary, her heart was full of turmoil at that moment.She doesn't know what it feels like to be king, will it be more uneasy and unsteady than the current feeling?

She turned her head to look at Xiao Xuanyu, who smiled softly at her.

Your Highness, everyone bowed down to pay respects to the Emperor and Concubine Heng.

After a while, Xiao Xuanyu asked them to lie flat, exchanged a few words with the old lady, and the imperial dining room began to serve dishes, snacks, and tea trays. Wu Shuang didn't have any appetite, and pretended to be watching a song and dance performance, without eating anything.

However, the atmosphere of the banquet was very harmonious, and Wushuang even had the illusion that Xiao Xuanyu was so polite and courteous to Mrs. Xiao, did it mean that he could also get along peacefully with Xiao Junyi?
At the banquet, Zhang Shilang also came. Now he is no longer the Minister of the Ministry of War but should be in the Ministry of Punishment. The Minister of the Ministry of War has become Situ Liancheng, and he also attended today with Su Xin.

Compared with the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Punishment is much more relaxed, and there is a lot of oil and water. Zhang Shilang is still in a good mood after changing his position.Although he lost the military power of the Ministry of War, he still felt that the emperor understood him and gave him a good job. Even if the empress dowager called him worthless, he didn't care.What's more, his daughter is now the Empress Yafei, his status is not what it used to be.In his eyes, the Empress Dowager was old, so what right did she have to tell him what to do, so he lived a very happy life with the delicious food and drink in the Ministry of Punishment.

In addition, Zhang Qing also came, and he finally got a half-official position, followed by Zhang Shilang as an official of the master register, which was painless, and Wu Shuang didn't quite understand what kind of official it was.

However, meeting him on this occasion still made Wushuang very upset.To Zhang Qing, her hostility is not a little bit.She couldn't help turning her head to look at Qiu Rong, but found that Qiu Rong didn't even glance at Zhang Qing, looking very strange.

The banquet continued, but Wushuang still couldn't arouse the slightest interest. Seeing that Qiu Rong was afraid of being rude to the emperor, she was helped by the palace people to go for a walk. Wushuang also made up a reason to leave.

Guangying outside the palace, Qiu Rong patted her chest and looked slightly uncomfortable, and the palace man patted her on the back.

"Qiu Rong..."

It was only when Ruyi approached with Wushuang supported that Qiu Rong came to her senses, and hurriedly bowed her body and saluted, "Minnv has met Concubine Heng, Empress Jin'an."

Wushuang subconsciously went to help her, Qiurong stood up, seeing Wushuang's imperial concubine's brocade gown, which was indescribably majestic and gorgeous, her heart was only convinced, and there was no reconciliation in the past.She knew that she was destined to be inferior to Wushuang.

In Tianxianglou, Wushuang is Qingdai's daughter, and Qingdai is a good sister of her mother, Sanniang. She has naturally become a half lady of Tianxianglou, who is much better than these girls. Serving tea and serving water has never been done. Didn't do it.

In Xiao's residence, Wushuang is the main wife, and she is a concubine, whom Xiao Junyi doesn't even look at.

Now, she has managed to get to the position of the main wife, and Wushuang is already an imperial concubine, and she is still pregnant with the emperor's dragon heir. If she wins a man in one fell swoop, her future status will be unmatched.
