The fifth wife wants to escape marriage: marry the princess

Chapter 177 Getting a Son 1
Concubine Yu raised her head when she heard the words, and said softly, "It's because I entered the palace together that my sister wanted to persuade my sister, it's not easy for anyone in this deep palace, why bother to fight for such a little profit?" ? The emperor treated us well, although he was not favored but never neglected, sister, one must cherish blessings and be content to be happy."

"Hehe..." Ya Fei laughed, "No wonder the Empress Dowager often praises Concubine Yu for her gentleness and generosity. She asked me to learn a lot from my concubine, and I really benefited a lot from a few chats today. However, someone as transparent and intelligent as my sister People, how can they be willing to be queens? The queen mother clearly doesn't like concubine Heng. In this life, even if she gives birth to the eldest son, she won't be able to sit on the queen's throne. My sister is different. If you have a son, the queen's position is not far away. If the eldest son can be the icing on the cake, everything will be at your fingertips."

"My sister is really flattering her. There are too many people in the harem who are better than Hong Yu in appearance, knowledge, and character. How can I dare to covet the queen's position? I also ask my sister not to make fun of her. Let's go, go to the front and have a look, the flowers are blooming well there." Concubine Yu spread her hands slightly, signaling Ya Concubine to move forward.

Yafei had no intention of appreciating flowers, and said insinuatingly, "Flowers are not popular for a hundred days, and people are not good for a thousand days. Sister, don't wait until everything is a foregone conclusion before crying, it will be too late."

"Think about my sister's concern. It's too late for me to be happy while pregnant with the emperor's child. What is there to cry about?" Concubine Yu didn't buy into Ya Concubine's account, and continued shopping for a while, claiming that she was a little tired, and returned to the palace early. up.

Seeing Concubine Yu's leaving back, Concubine Ya went back to the palace fiercely, annoyed, "Stubborn, you're just playing the piano to a cow, coward, why are you pretending to be virtuous!"

Ya Fei was indignant, she was from a nobler family than them, why didn't good things happen to her?Why are they all pregnant with the emperor's child, but she still has no news. The queen mother asked again and again, but she didn't know how to answer.If she can't get pregnant, she can't get pregnant. It's useless for her to worry alone!
Chunhua Palace.

These days, with Su Xin and Lian Cheng playing the piano during the day, Wu Shuang's mood improved a lot, and the smiles on her face became more and more.

Su Xin has a big belly, and the time before delivery is not normal, so Wushuang asked her to wait for the delivery at home, with Lian Cheng to accompany her, there is no need to come to the palace to accompany her all the time, everything is fine for her, and she can take care of herself.

Most of the time, Xiao Xuanyu was busy with government affairs, and the women in the harem kept their duties, and rarely violated the rules, and Wushuang lived comfortably.

If Su Xin is born, her child will not be far away.It has become a habit to take a walk in Houhu every day. Su Xin was with her in the past, but now Su Xin is in Situ's mansion to give birth, and the emperor is busy again. Most of Wushuang is supported by Ruyi.

The water in the back lake is rippling, and the river is full of white lotus, but this season is not the season when the white lotus is in full bloom, so the back lake looks a bit monotonous, but just looking at the crystal clear water can still make people feel happy.

In the evening of this day, Wushuang went for a walk in Houhu as usual, but unexpectedly ran into Yafei and Yufei.

It's not uncommon to see these two in the palace, but Wushuang doesn't like to associate with Xiao Xuanyu's concubine, so he usually avoids seeing them, if he really can't avoid, he just pays a little courtesy and walks away, never having a close friendship.

This time, seeing Yafei and Yufei enjoying the scenery by the lake, she didn't notice herself, Wushuang signaled Ruyi to go somewhere else, but as soon as she turned around, she heard Yafei shout, "Msg Concubine Heng..."

Wushuang turned her head and saw that Concubine Ya was holding Yu Concubine's arm and asked with a charming smile, "Why did you see us turn around and leave? But what did I do to offend Concubine Heng?"

Seeing Wushuang, Concubine Yu bowed slightly, and Wushuang also bowed her body to return the salute, and took two steps forward, "No, I just saw that the two of you are having a good time together, so I can't bear to disturb you."

"I heard from the imperial doctor that it is good for children to take a walk in Houhu to relax. He also said that Concubine Heng often comes here, so I want to come here, so as not to disturb Concubine Heng's elegance." Concubine Yu said softly, " If Concubine Heng is not in a hurry, would you like to go shopping together?"

Unable to avoid it, Wushuang nodded, "Alright, let's go together!"

"We are both emperor's concubines and should walk around a lot. Why is Concubine Hang always in the Chunhua Palace? If you don't come out again, I will hardly remember what you look like!" Yafei said.

Wu Shuang said politely, "I prefer to be quiet, and my body is not very convenient, so I have been recuperating in the palace, and rarely come out to visit the two empresses, please forgive me."

"Concubine Heng is so polite, just don't blame us for not visiting you." Yafei said, "Concubine Heng is very quiet. I heard that Concubine Heng is a very lively person. The general is going to practice horseback riding in the countryside!"

As soon as "General Xiao" was mentioned, the atmosphere was a little off. Wushuang and Concubine Yu didn't speak, and Concubine Ya hurriedly said, "Oh, look at me, I said something wrong again. This Xiao Junyi is now a traitor. Where is he? What kind of general. Concubine Heng was right to reconcile with him at the beginning, if not, she would become a traitor now, and the life of hiding in Tibet would be difficult, and it can't compare to the rich clothes and fine food in the harem, don't you think?"

"Sister!" Concubine Yu said softly, "We are here to enjoy the scenery, why are we talking about these annoying topics?"

"Okay, let's go, let's go..." Ya Fei remained silent, followed Yu Fei to the pavilion in the middle of the back lake, and Wu Shuang also followed.

The pavilion was built on the water surface, and a long bridge was built from the east bank to walk across. Wushuang stepped on this familiar road, looked sideways at the water surface on both sides, and the setting sun shimmered in the west, it was really beautiful.

Where the breeze passes, the fragrance of flowers blowing across the river makes me feel refreshed.

"Concubine Heng, slow down and be careful." Concubine Yu came over to support Wushuang, and said with a smile, "It's been a while since I saw Concubine Heng, and I feel that Concubine Heng's belly has grown a lot."

Wushuang smiled slightly, "Concubine Yu must be almost two months old!"

"Yeah, this reaction is so strong that I don't want to eat anything, and I feel so bored in the palace, so I want to go out for a walk. It's really comfortable here, the water is clear, and the wind is fragrant. It's really a good place. If in the future Concubine Heng comes again, if you don't mind, Hong Yu is willing to accompany you." Concubine Yu led Wushuang into the pavilion, Concubine Ya was not interested in their talking about their children, she was already sitting in the pavilion drinking tea!
"That's good, it's good to have someone to talk to." Wu Shuang also sat in the pavilion, and the maids retreated to the side after pouring tea.

The three of them tasted snacks, drank tea, and looked around. The river was green, and there was no depression of autumn at all.

"I heard that there is someone in my younger sister's palace who can play the flute, and even the emperor praised it greatly. Has there ever been such a thing? If there is such a thing, why not let her come out to play a tune, so as to cheer Concubine Hang on." Concubine Yu asked suddenly.

Yafei proudly said, "Of course it's true. Every time the emperor comes, he will listen to it. I've been learning it recently, but I'm not good at it, so it's inconvenient to make a fool of myself." Yafei said, and let the maid come out to play the flute. After a while, the melodious flute sound was rippling on the entire lake.

Wu Shuang has always liked the sound of music, it was rare to hear someone playing the flute, he was extraordinarily happy, and ate more snacks than usual.

The pavilion on the water was unique and elegant, Yufei and Yafei listened to the sound of the flute, leaned on the carved guardrail and looked at the water surface, not breaking the snacks in their hands and throwing them to the fish in the water.

"Concubine Heng, come and take a look, there are so many fish."

Hearing Concubine Yu calling her, Wushuang got up and went over, took the snacks from their hands, and started feeding the fish as well.

Seeing the fish swimming freely and happily in the water, Wushuang envied and liked it at the same time.However, after a while, my heart became inexplicably irritable, especially the continuous sound of the flute. For some reason, listening to it, Wushuang felt a little upset, and her chest was full of panic.

"Sister, look, there are still fish over there!" Yufei and Yafei chatted and laughed, Wushuang leaned on the railing and listened, feeling more and more dazed, suddenly there was a "pop", Yafei and Yufei Shouting again and again, "It's broken, it's broken..."

Wushuang suddenly found that the railing she had been holding on to was broken, and she didn't even have time to exclaim. She instinctively grabbed the sides, but couldn't catch anything. Ruyi hurried over to help, Wushuang almost reached her hands, waist But she was pushed against by something, causing her body to fall back into the river uncontrollably.

"Ah, Ruyi..." Wushuang exclaimed instinctively, and Concubine Yu also reached out to grab her, but she still didn't catch her.Just hearing a "bang", Wushuang fell into the river, splashing a lot of water.

"Concubine Heng..." Concubine Yu shouted, "Someone is coming, Concubine Heng has fallen into the water, come quickly..."

"Help, help..." Wushuang didn't know how to swim, and slapped the surface of the water indiscriminately, struggling to keep herself from sinking. Concubine Yu leaned forward to grab her, "Put your hand here, Concubine Hang, hurry up..."

However, no matter how hard Wushuang tried, she couldn't reach Concubine Yu's hand.Ya Fei yelled for help, and pulled Yu Fei away, "Sister, Miss, don't fall too...Hang Concubine, hold on, come, come..."

However, how could these following maids know how to swim? Ruyi couldn't swim at all if she wanted to save her. She tried her best to reach out, but she couldn't hold Wushuang back.

Wushuang patted the surface of the water, without any consciousness at that moment, only knowing that he was patting vigorously, the water splashed, blurring his vision.She shouted "Help", but was choked on a few mouthfuls of water.I don't know how long she has been struggling like this, she feels so tired, and the panicked screams of the palace maids can be heard in her ears, she doesn't care about anything anymore, she just wants to sleep like this, really tired, tired Heart is also tired.

The water completely submerged her, however, when the water filled her mouth and nose, when the suffocation suddenly hit her, she thought of that person in her mind, and remembered him saying: Wushuang, I'm back.

But, why did she keep her eyes open and try hard to find him, but she still couldn't find him.He didn't come back, he still hasn't come back.Her vision became more and more blurred, and the feeling of suffocation came over her. She was suddenly terrified, this feeling of dying was too painful, she struggled uncomfortably, she didn't want to die, she didn't want to die...

Her body was heavy and her stomach was heavy, Wushuang was so scared, she was afraid that she would never see him again, she was afraid that she would not be able to bring this child into the world safely, at that moment, fear enveloped her.

"Help...help me..." Wushuang struggled desperately. She saw the guards rushing up the long bridge. This remote place is also a pavilion on the water. It took them some time to come. Fortunately, they were finally caught by her. It's time to wait.

Wushuang tried hard to persevere, when suddenly someone jumped into the water and supported her who might sink to the bottom at any time, "Concubine Hang, Concubine Hang..."

Wushuang seemed to be grasping at a straw, and she held onto the man's arm tightly. She heard that it was Concubine Yu's voice.With Concubine Yu's swimming, and with the help of the guards who came later, Wushuang was brought to the shore little by little. Seeing Ruyi's tense face approaching, Wushuang grabbed her hand, his heart suddenly relaxed, and he passed out.
