Chapter 291 The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked
Chapter 291 The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked
Shen Yan didn't want to do anything to Mu Yao either, looking at the misty sky, he scratched his head helplessly, and had no choice but to admit defeat.This early in the morning, she was still wearing a thin tunic, and it felt like autumn, if Mu Yao was allowed to lie on the ground, she would inevitably catch cold.
In desperation, Shen Yan had no choice but to bend down and hug her.
Mu Yao's complexion turned pale from the pain, and she had exerted all her strength in that palm just now, so she must have been seriously injured.It is inconvenient for a seriously injured person to travel for a long time, so Shen Yan had no choice but to quickly put the person on his bed.
The temperature on the bed was still there, Mu Yao consciously covered herself with the quilt, and lay down in his quilt without seeing anything, "You go to Wen Gu, I'll just wait here."
Shen Yan casually took the coat on the hanger, and walked out.
Xi Mo came to report, saying that Shen Yan was waiting outside Tingfenglou.After asking, I found out that Mu Yao fell and got hurt a little.
Hearing the news, Su Xi, who had just walked out of the secret room, and Wen Gu, who rushed over, looked at each other. It was still early in the morning, so why were they injured?Falling off the bed while falling asleep?
"Go and have a look!" Su Xi said, "I'll watch over you, Young Master."
Wen Gu nodded, turned to Xi Mo and said, "Bring me the medicine box!" The Shangshu Mansion was still very quiet, and the other side of the kitchen was still busy, why did Mu Yao fall?
Shen Yan walked in front, Wen Gu followed behind.
"Where are you going?" Wen Gu frowned and stopped, "This is not going to the Princess's room."
"The princess is here, at my place." Shen Yan didn't think too much about it, he just wanted to put Mu Yao flat first, so as not to break a bone or something, and then move the injured person to be injured again.
But when Wen Gu asked such a question, he felt a little guilty.
After all, this Mu Yao is Mrs. Shangshu, and now she is lying in her own room, lying on her own bed, as if, as if, as if, indeed, something is not appropriate.
"Don't get me wrong!" Shen Yan said hastily.
Wen Gu hummed twice, took the medicine box and went to Shen Yan's room.
Huo Huo was waiting by the side, and when he saw Wen Gu coming, he hurried up to meet him, "Doctor Wen, the princess is in severe pain, please show me quickly!" As he spoke, he even started crying, "Doctor Wen, the princess What if you break your waist at a young age? Will you have to lie on the bed for the rest of your life? Doctor Wen..."
"Okay, okay, another name, isn't this here?" Wen Gu sighed helplessly, what is all this?Add to the chaos!
Huo Huo twitched violently, and the crying stopped as soon as he said it.
Wen Gu sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Mu Yao who was lying on the quilt, frowned and checked with her, "Why did the princess fall on Shen Qianhu's bed so well? The princess fell so far, others It really doesn't matter."
Mu Yao smiled apologetically, "Doctor Wen's words are wrong, am I just passing by?"
"The princess's room is over there, and Shen Qianhu's room is here. Usually, there is no need to go here. It is really puzzling for the princess to pass by." Who doesn't know that Wen Gu is from Tingfeng Building Only Zhao Wuyou's confidants or trusted people can enter Tingfeng Tower, so Wen Gu's question will also become Zhao Wuyou's question.
If Mu Yao can't answer, it is estimated that this matter will be difficult.
Huo Huo hurriedly said, "The Princess is passing by in a dream!"
"The princess's dream is really good. I accidentally passed by the door of Shen Qianhu's room and fell on the bed by accident?" Wen Gu put away the pulse pillow, "It's nothing serious, turn over and let me have a look."
Mu Yao curled her lips, "It hurts."
"Do you still know it hurts? You know it hurts, so you don't sleep this early and come here to join in the fun? The princess thinks it's not dawn yet, so she hurried out to practice with Shen Qianhu? This whip is almost perfect?" Wen Gu He glanced at Shen Yan meaningfully.
Shen Yan said, "Wen Gu, don't speak rudely. I've behaved well and sat upright. I have never done anything to insult the Shangshufu. Your Shangshufu and my Dongchang have always been the same. I don't want to find the Shangshufu's bad luck. .”
"There is a saying in this world, I wonder if Shen Qianhu has heard it?" Wen Gu smiled coldly, and pointed to the beam above his head, "The so-called upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked."
Shen Yan was startled, he also knew about Zhao Wuyou, this Zhao Wuyou now...
Hearing these words, Shen Yan, who was not good at words, couldn't answer for a while.This is good, one can't answer, the other doesn't know what to say, being tossed about by Wen Gu, it seems that they really have some ulterior relationship.
Shen Yan's expression became a little colder, and it seemed that something that was clearly not happening was made real by Wen Gu.Martial arts practitioners, how could they suffer such a great humiliation, straightened their body immediately, "Wen Gu, don't..."
"Don't do anything!" Wen Gu shoved Fang Zi into Shen Yan's hand, "The injury on this arm has just healed, and I thought you would be able to go back in two days, but now it's fine, you still have to make do with it." month. Let me tell you, if you mess around again, you will be a servant of the Shangshu Mansion for the rest of your life."
Shen Yan was stunned, "What is this?"
"Can't you open your eyes and see for yourself?" Wen Gu rolled his eyes, "You people in Dongchang, I think they are all oily, how come you are such a dull person, you really seem to have picked it up. This is a prescription. Taking it internally and applying it externally, this young man has injured his waist lightly, if it is not cured, he will be able to bear it in the future."
"Huo Huo!" Shen Yan handed Fang Zi out.
Wen Gu said again, "Why, do you still want the little girl Huo Huo to clean up the mess for you? You can clean up the mess yourself. If a man dares to act bravely, you don't even have this responsibility when you come out of Dongchang?"
Shen Yan frowned, Wen Gu had a firecracker this morning?What is the reason for this endless rivalry with him?
"What are you looking at!" Wen Gu blew his beard and stared, "Don't think that you are a thousand households in Dongchang, but I can tell you that you came to the Shangshu Mansion by order to serve the princess as a slave. Now you Make the princess like this, look at it and take good care of yourself?"
On the bed, Mu Yao was very happy, but in front of Wen Gu, she still had to show the generosity that a princess should have, "Okay, thank you Doctor Wen, I will let Huo Huo not intervene in this matter, let Mr. Shen take care of it." Take care of mine."
Shen Yan's brows twitched, the smirk on the princess's face was really not a good thing.Thinking of what the princess said to him not long ago, Shen Yan felt extremely uneasy.
What is good care?What do you mean you don't have to let Huo Huo intervene?
How long will it take to treat this as a cow and a horse?
Elder brother has left the capital, and the East Factory is at a time when there is no leader. At this moment, I am still working as a slave in the Shangshu Mansion. I really feel aggrieved, and I really want to die.
Sending Wen Gu out of the room, Wen Gu turned his head and said, "Don't think that I don't know what your kid is thinking, the princess suffered internal injuries, this is not something that girl Huo Huo can do, you did it, right? ?”
Shen Yan didn't like to argue at all, so he nodded seriously, "The princess came in by himself, and I accidentally slapped you, you are also a martial arts practitioner, you should understand that many things come naturally from habit and are absolutely not intentional. I hope that Dr. Wen can have a good talk with Mr. Zhao when he goes back. Dongchang..."
"I'm not from Dongchang. I don't care about Dongchang's affairs. The rise and fall of your Dongchang has nothing to do with me." Wen Gu said, "I only care about the people in Shangshu's mansion, so you'd better not act rashly. You are now If you are a servant of the Shangshu Mansion, if you do something during this period, then the Shangshu Mansion will definitely not be able to escape the responsibility. Do you understand?"
Shen Yan closed his eyes and remained silent.
"Don't think that if you don't talk, I can let you go." Wen Gu snorted twice, "There are one or two in Dongchang, why did they get into trouble with the Shangshufu? The one above you is like this, and you are like this , the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked."
"Don't speak so harshly, you have the ability to go to him for your grievances with Lord Qiantose, don't vent your anger on me." Shen Yan is not easy to bully, "You have the ability to take care of your baby bump, if you don't, just obediently be your grandfather , don’t rely on the old and sell the old all day long.”
After finishing speaking, Shen Yan turned around and left.
Standing there, Wen Gu was out of breath, the older one left his pregnant daughter to go to Jinling City, and the younger one was still like this...Wen Gu held his breath in his chest, feeling like he was going to explode with anger .
If there is such a kind of elder brother, there is such a kind of younger brother, Mu Baili will take care of everything without saying a word, and Shen Yan will do the same if he doesn't keep it safe, and then the princess will give birth to the child without saying a word Well, this, this Shangshu Mansion is probably in a mess.
"It's unreasonable! It's unreasonable!" Wen Gu came back cursing, making Suxi laugh.
"This Shen Yan hasn't been reprimanded in Dongchang yet, when will it be your turn to scold him? Although he is the young master's uncle, he was not born by you after all, so I can't let you!" Su Xi smiled and comforted , patted Wen Gu on the shoulder, "Forget it, don't worry about it here, you'd better think about it, how to make the young master get better as soon as possible. I have to go out every now and then to find out where the thing that can't die is."
Wen Gu came back to his senses and nodded accordingly.
Although Jian Yan said that as long as he avoided it, it would be fine, but one day he would die by himself, so it would be fine.But the key point is that Maya may be manipulating him behind him. Maya is cruel and merciless. If Jian Yan is used, he will definitely not let Jian Yan die easily.
But on the other side of Prince Qiyou's mansion, there is no trace of Jian Yan, nor Xiao Rong coming out. You have been too quiet recently, you can't find the entry point for this matter at all, so you can only blindly go to the capital and send The shadow guards hang around more.
This kind of thing of using a blind cat to touch a dead mouse is really not an option.
Fortunately, Zhao Wuyou's body gradually improved, this was the most gratifying thing for Wen Gu.This belly is growing day by day, and the yearning and excitement for a new life makes Zhao Wuyou feel that the future is full of hope.
In the eyes of Zhao Wuyou and Mu Baili, two people who never had hope, it was probably the most beautiful ray of sunshine in their lives.
Judging from the time, this army should not have arrived at Jinling City, they are still on their way!I don't know if the wind and rain on this road have stopped, whether this road is smooth?
Zhao Wuyou wrote a calendar on the stone wall, counting the days when he left.He said that he would come back in a few months at most, and she believed it, with no doubts.
Pregnant people are used to thinking a lot, no one is an exception.
Zhao Wuyou had to worry about government affairs and the current situation because Mu Baili was not around, but this Wang Jinxiu was focused on taking the back seat.Who doesn't know that this queen is an empty shelf, anyone can replace her.
Now that she has a child, she is thinking that it is true that a mother is more valuable than a child.
However, Xia Lan was also pregnant, which made Wang Jinxiu feel more pressure from the outside world. All of them were pregnant, so she was not favored.The so-called advantages have also been gradually calmed down. Everyone has children. Why should the emperor be so rare about your children? When the time comes, mothers will be more expensive by their children, and they will have to return to the previous situation of getting status by virtue of women's favor.
This was the result that Wang Jinxiu absolutely didn't want to see. She had no family background, and she couldn't compare to Fu Yuying and Xia Lan in terms of talent, appearance and intelligence. What would she use to compete with others?
Sitting in front of Fu Yuying with a smile on her face, Wang Jinxiu said with a smile, "My sister looks really good."
"My sister looks good too." Fu Yuying smiled, lowered her head and played with the tiger-toed shoes in her hand.
"My sister's tiger-toed shoes are so beautifully made." Wang Jinxiu showed envy, "The night pearls on them are really well inlaid."
"If my sister is happy, I still have some fabrics in this box. Let Qiuxian and Caiyun embroider a pair." Fu Yuying smiled and put down the tiger-toed shoes in her hand, "I have a lot of pearls in my box, just let Caiyun Just go to the warehouse and pick it up. In this palace, we are all without relatives and no reason, if we can't watch and help each other, we will really be alone and helpless."
Wang Jinxiu bowed his head, "Sister, remember my sister's teaching." Er'er smiled lightly, "I heard from the old man at home that the belly is a man or a woman, and you can tell the clue by looking at the woman's face. I heard that she is pregnant. For a woman, the better and more radiant her complexion, she is a daughter. If her complexion is not as gloomy as before, she is probably a son."
Fu Yuying smiled and said, "The imperial physician has already felt your pulse, and he is talking about the prince, so what else do you have to worry about. It doesn't matter if I am a man or a woman, as long as I am healthy!"
When she said this, Fu Yuying looked at Wang Jinxiu stroking her own face, feeling a little worried.
"There haven't been any newcomers in the harem yet, and we are quite favored. Even if we are princesses, it doesn't matter. We still have a chance when we are young." Fu Yuying smiled, and looked carefully at Wang Jinxiu's stomach, " It is estimated that it will be born in the second half of the year!"
Wang Jinxiu stroked her swollen belly, "There are still three months until the birth."
But now she is just a Zhaoyi, in terms of seniority, she is not as good as the Fu Yuying in front of her.She thought, if she could really have a son, she might be able to be raised to the imperial concubine position, right?The prince's mother cannot be too low in status, otherwise, how can she be the prince, how can she be the crown prince?
If I accidentally gave birth to a daughter and Fu Yuying gave birth to a son, then what I should have would be ruined.
Seeing Wang Jinxiu looking up at her belly, Fu Yuying said with a slight smile, "Although you and I are sisters, my child is still a step behind and still not as good as you."
Wang Jinxiu was a little embarrassed, "Sister, don't say these things, you are a person with a body, and now it's great to be able to give birth to this child safely." She really would be ashamed, if it wasn't for her and the queen, Fu Yuying's first The child has already been born.
Gently stroking her belly, Fu Yuying's eyes darkened, the pain of losing a child is not something that can be forgotten just by saying it.
"My sister is pregnant now, but this Xia Lan is also pregnant." Wang Jinxiu showed embarrassment, "Did my sister ever think that now she has been serving the emperor longer than us, and if she is gossiping in front of the emperor."
She paused, and looked at Fu Yuying with a look of panic, "Sister, aren't you worried? You and I are both healthy people now, and the emperor just comes and walks at night, but she is still with the emperor when she is pregnant. If a child is born in the future, then we..."
"What does my sister mean?" Fu Yuying pretended not to know, "She is just a lowly position now, what else should my sister worry about? Although she is pregnant and still serves her, this is the emperor's acquiescence. You and I have What way? Is it possible to run to the emperor and ask the emperor to drive her out?"
Wang Jinxiu's face turned blue and white, and when she closed her eyes, her face showed innocence and grievance.
With a soft sigh, Fu Yuying took Wang Jinxiu's hand and said, "Sister, don't worry, she no longer has the backing of the Duke's Mansion, so she is a poor person. You see her beautiful and beautiful now, but did you see her in the past?" How does she look desolate and withered? The women in this palace are all at one time and another, whether they are beautiful or down, they can't help themselves."
"You have seen her beauty, but you should also know that this beauty may not last for a long time. Since ancient times, there have been three thousand in the harem, you and I are not happy with Daji, and we can't charm the king's heart, so you have to relax, why torture yourself What about yourself? The emperor is here, so I can serve you well. If the emperor doesn't come, then live your own life well, why worry so much?"
Wang Jinxiu nodded, "Being taught by my sister is like enlightenment."
Coming out of Lianhua Palace sullenly, Wang Jinxiu's expression turned extremely ugly.Caiyun didn't dare to say anything, now that her master is pregnant, her temper is becoming more and more weird, and she often gets angry when she says she is angry.
With a helpless sigh, Caiyun followed behind.
Qiu Xian watched the master and servant walk away, and then came back in a hurry, glanced at Fu Yuying, who had a slightly gloomy face, "Your Majesty?"
"All gone?" Fu Yuying snorted coldly.
Qiu Xian nodded, "They're all gone, but this servant feels that Wang Zhaoyi's words seem a little strange when he comes this time."
"It's not just weird, it's almost here to sow discord." Fu Yuying sneered twice, "I didn't expect to learn a lesson last time, and this time I dared to move my mind on my head. Wanting to use me to deal with Xia Lan, it's a wishful thinking The abacus is really good!"
Qiuxian paused, "Since the empress knows, why..."
"She is pregnant now, no matter what, even if I bring the evidence to the emperor, the emperor will make a big deal into a small matter. Besides, do you think if I take out the things at this time, the emperor and everyone will think so Me? It's because I'm jealous that I wantonly spread rumors and slander the pregnant concubine, just to make way for the child in my womb!" Fu Yuying smiled wryly.
"Your Majesty, is the evidence in our hands useless?" Qiu Xian frowned.
Fu Yuying shook her head, "It's useless for the time being, haven't you noticed that she's getting more and more ostentatious? There's not even the slightest bit of cautiousness now."
Qiu Xian was angrily, "I did such a thing in the past, but now I can still do it like this. I don't know how God has eyes."
"It doesn't matter how long the eyes are, anyway, she thinks that she can treat others as pawns, but she doesn't know that she is the pawns in other people's hands." Fu Yuying thinks about herself, why is she not a pawn?
"She's been going to the Queen's place to pay her respects recently. What's on her mind? Do you really think we don't know?" Qiu Xian's eyes turned cold, "I did it once before, and now I dare to come again. This Wang Jinxiu is really not long. memory."
"She wants me to deal with Xialan, but I won't let her do so." Fu Yuying smiled coldly, "Xialan is also a poor person now, and she is also looking for an ally she can rely on. In this harem, there is no eternal There is no permanent enemy, and there is no permanent friend. Therefore, Wang Jinxiu dares to continue to join hands with the queen, so I have to let you know what is dangerous."
"Isn't your empress afraid of tearing your face?" Qiu Xian asked.
Fu Yuying shook her head, "She didn't dare! Besides, I didn't go here this time to negotiate a peace. I just went to have a look. It seems that there is nothing wrong with walking around the Yongshou Palace. I always stay in the palace for a long time , I am afraid that others will forget my existence."
Qiu Xian nodded, "The emperor hasn't been here recently."
"Yes!" Fu Yuying smiled, "The emperor is busy with government affairs and cannot come to Lianhua Palace, so I will go to Yongshou Palace to see him."
It's time to move around, otherwise the palace will think that she, Fu Yuying, has fallen out of favor, and this life will be too miserable.One must always think of one's own grace, and always be on guard against other people's plots and calculations. This is not a human life.
Looking up at Yunxi standing outside the door, Fu Yuying was slightly dazed.
"Sometimes I really wish that someone could take me and leave here desperately." Fu Yuying whispered, "Qiu Xian, have you ever thought about leaving the palace? Do you know what it's like to be free?"
Qiu Xian narrowed her eyes, "Since I followed the young master, I have never thought of a day of freedom. The empress is different from the slaves. The slaves are from the countryside. If the young master hadn't given up a few mouthfuls of food, he would have been reincarnated a long time ago. The servant girl also knows that the young master is only cultivating his own power by doing this, and he has placed us in various places in order to act as an eyeliner."
"But ma'am, eyeliner also has the benefits of eyeliner. There are also family members in the servant's house. All these years, they have relied on the servant's own monthly money to survive well. One is to live for the family. Sometimes it is not worth thinking about it. Why live for them?"
Speaking of this, Qiu Xian sighed softly, "But after thinking about it, isn't it more terrifying to live alone in this world? It's better to be dead than to have no one to look forward to, no one to think about. "
Fu Yuying thought of her younger brother. It was for revenge and to give him a place to live.Now that she has done it, it's a pity that she has wronged herself, and she has to serve the man she doesn't like, and suffers like a cage day and night.But I took this step by myself, so who is to blame?
"Nine times out of ten there are unsatisfactory things in life, and the empress doesn't have to take it to heart." Qiu Xian smiled, "The servants have lived in the palace since they were young, and gradually got used to it. This palace is a second home, it's nothing inconvenient."
"Before entering the palace, the young master told everyone that getting used to it is a terrible thing, and all you have to do is get used to it. Once you get used to being terrible, there will be nothing more terrible." Qiu Xian took a deep breath, "Your Majesty, you What do you say?"
I'm used to being in the palace, so I wanted to go out for a while.Later—without hope, it became despair, and then a flat heart was born from despair, and there was nothing to ask for but to try to keep myself alive.
Fu Yuying nodded, "I didn't expect you to see it more thoroughly than I do."
"Your maidservant doesn't see it clearly, but your maidservant is used to it." Qiu Xian bowed and withdrew.
Yun Xi stood outside and heard the two people's words clearly.Fu Yuying said something to him, and he knew it in his heart, but if it wasn't suitable, it was not suitable.He is the person on the tip of the knife, and she is the canary raised in the palace, which is simply impossible.
Some things don't need to be held tightly, but to be let go, otherwise no one will end well.
We are all smart people, we all know it well.
Fu Yuying went to Yongshou Palace, the emperor happened to be taking a nap, seeing her coming, he asked Xia Lan to retreat.Compared with Xia Lan's ulterior motives, he prefers Fu Yuying's intelligence.
Fu Yuying is intelligent, but rarely involved in government affairs.
But Xia Lan was different. Ever since she was pregnant, when the emperor looked at her, he always had some side thoughts, and always felt that Xia Lan was planning something.The feeling of being calculated by others every day is really unpleasant.
What's more, let's do the calculations, but the calculations are born without any technical content, and the more people think about it, the more disgusted they become.
Fu Yuying went to Yongshou Palace and stayed in Yongshou Palace, so Xia Lan knew that she did it on purpose.This trip also made everyone's eyes open again, and they shifted their expectations for Xia Lan to Fu Yuying.
After taking a nap with the emperor, Fu Yuying left Yongshou Palace.When she walked out of the palace gate, Xia Lan was standing outside the palace road, there was no one around, she stood there and saluted Fu Yuying respectfully.
Fu Yuying took a deep breath, "My sister's current status seems to be too perfunctory to show this courtesy to me."
Hearing this, Xia Lan was slightly taken aback, then knelt down on the ground and saluted again, "Your maidservant is impolite, please forgive me."
Fu Yuying looked at her cute and pitiful appearance, and slowly stepped forward to stand in front of her.In that condescending posture, there is no arrogance but dignity and elegance.Fu Yuying said unhurriedly, "In the past, we were both honored, but now my younger sister has fallen to this point. It is inevitable to make people feel sad. Zuo Buren has encountered many difficulties in his life. If he is down today, he may become a great success tomorrow."
Xia Lan stared at Fu Yuying in front of her with deep meaning. These words were a bit profound, and she was thinking about what Fu Yuying meant.Concentrating her eyes, Xia Lan bowed her head obediently, "Thank you for your reminder, my servant will definitely keep it in mind."
"You have put so many things in your heart, can you still pretend now?" Fu Yuying smiled, "Forget it, it's inconvenient for me to say more, my sister can do it for herself! In this palace, there are eyes and eyes. Knife, if you can't prevent others' eyes, you will inevitably have to be stabbed. If the knife is light, it will toss people half to death, and if it is heavy, it will kill them. My sister is smart, and I think she is also a person who suffers from a fall and gains wisdom."
Xia Lan saluted, "I understand."
"I hope you really understand." Fu Yuying sighed softly, "This look and figure are rare in the harem, so cherish yourself!"
Waiting for Fu Yuying to leave, Xia Lan's eyes darkened slightly, and then Bi Chun helped her up.
Bichun was puzzled, "Master, what does this Fu Jieyu mean? Knowing that the young master is pregnant, she dared to ask the young master to kneel and salute. This is outside the Yongshou Palace, so it is inevitable that there is some suspicion of bullying."
"She's always thoughtful, and what she says has a lot of meaning." Xia Lan let out a long breath, and then smiled bitterly, "No one in this palace can be trusted. I thought I could fight, but now it seems that only It's up to me."
"Master?" Bi Chun frowned, "What's wrong with you?"
Xia Lan shook her head.
Bichun asked again, "Then master still going to Kunning Palace?"
"No need to go, let's go back and rest!" Xia Lan turned around and walked back, there was no point in going.It seems that the queen has other thoughts, even if she goes, it will be of no use.
Two low wry smiles, the status in this palace, the emperor's favor, everything is enough to kill a person.
Others dare not gossip about Fu Yuying making Xia Lan kneel down, but they can't hide it from Kunning Palace.Now the empress is leaning on the soft couch, enjoying Qin An's pinching comfortably, and then lazily raised her eyelids.
Wang Jinxiu was waiting by the side, "I didn't expect that Fu Jieyu was benevolent and moral on the surface, but in fact, she was also jealous in her heart."
"How can you not be jealous? There are so many women in this palace, but the emperor has only one person." The queen glanced coldly at Wang Jinxiu, and then closed her eyes, "But you have done a good job in this matter. He is a healthy person, after this incident, he reckons that if something happens in the future, it will be a grievance between the two of them."
After finishing speaking, the queen sighed softly, if Xia Lan's child was still alive that day, it is estimated that the Xia family may not have such a result today.If the Xia family is still there, the layout of the court may not be like this.
After all, the calculations of people are not as good as the calculations of heaven. The Xia family made a wrong move and underestimated Zhao Wuyou's ability.
"Thank you, ma'am." Wang Jinxiu saluted with a slight smile.
Because the body is getting heavier and heavier, the salute is becoming more and more inconvenient.The Empress looked at Wang Jinxiu's belly, the light in her eyes gradually became cooler.Once upon a time, she also wanted to have such a day, but later, she realized that it was just a delusion.
Now it seems that there is nothing to look forward to besides clinging to this back position.
"Keep an eye on Fu Yuying." The queen rubbed her brows, "Go ahead and let Fu Yuying deal with Xia Lan! No matter who gets hurt, the emperor's side will not be happy. The emperor is very suspicious now, who dares to play tricks in front of the emperor, no matter win or lose Nothing will end well.”
Wang Jinxiu's heart was suffocated, and she immediately nodded, "Your Majesty's words are absolutely true."
"Take good care of the baby in your belly, and give birth to a prince in the future, and your wish of raising your position will be fulfilled." The queen looked tired, "You go back first, do your job well, I can't treat you badly—and you mother's family."
"Yes!" The expression on Wang Jinxiu's face immediately tightened upon hearing about her natal family.There are some things that she cannot change.No matter how favored the emperor was, he never thought about her natal family. After all, the imperial court and the harem should not be confused.
(End of this chapter)
Shen Yan didn't want to do anything to Mu Yao either, looking at the misty sky, he scratched his head helplessly, and had no choice but to admit defeat.This early in the morning, she was still wearing a thin tunic, and it felt like autumn, if Mu Yao was allowed to lie on the ground, she would inevitably catch cold.
In desperation, Shen Yan had no choice but to bend down and hug her.
Mu Yao's complexion turned pale from the pain, and she had exerted all her strength in that palm just now, so she must have been seriously injured.It is inconvenient for a seriously injured person to travel for a long time, so Shen Yan had no choice but to quickly put the person on his bed.
The temperature on the bed was still there, Mu Yao consciously covered herself with the quilt, and lay down in his quilt without seeing anything, "You go to Wen Gu, I'll just wait here."
Shen Yan casually took the coat on the hanger, and walked out.
Xi Mo came to report, saying that Shen Yan was waiting outside Tingfenglou.After asking, I found out that Mu Yao fell and got hurt a little.
Hearing the news, Su Xi, who had just walked out of the secret room, and Wen Gu, who rushed over, looked at each other. It was still early in the morning, so why were they injured?Falling off the bed while falling asleep?
"Go and have a look!" Su Xi said, "I'll watch over you, Young Master."
Wen Gu nodded, turned to Xi Mo and said, "Bring me the medicine box!" The Shangshu Mansion was still very quiet, and the other side of the kitchen was still busy, why did Mu Yao fall?
Shen Yan walked in front, Wen Gu followed behind.
"Where are you going?" Wen Gu frowned and stopped, "This is not going to the Princess's room."
"The princess is here, at my place." Shen Yan didn't think too much about it, he just wanted to put Mu Yao flat first, so as not to break a bone or something, and then move the injured person to be injured again.
But when Wen Gu asked such a question, he felt a little guilty.
After all, this Mu Yao is Mrs. Shangshu, and now she is lying in her own room, lying on her own bed, as if, as if, as if, indeed, something is not appropriate.
"Don't get me wrong!" Shen Yan said hastily.
Wen Gu hummed twice, took the medicine box and went to Shen Yan's room.
Huo Huo was waiting by the side, and when he saw Wen Gu coming, he hurried up to meet him, "Doctor Wen, the princess is in severe pain, please show me quickly!" As he spoke, he even started crying, "Doctor Wen, the princess What if you break your waist at a young age? Will you have to lie on the bed for the rest of your life? Doctor Wen..."
"Okay, okay, another name, isn't this here?" Wen Gu sighed helplessly, what is all this?Add to the chaos!
Huo Huo twitched violently, and the crying stopped as soon as he said it.
Wen Gu sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Mu Yao who was lying on the quilt, frowned and checked with her, "Why did the princess fall on Shen Qianhu's bed so well? The princess fell so far, others It really doesn't matter."
Mu Yao smiled apologetically, "Doctor Wen's words are wrong, am I just passing by?"
"The princess's room is over there, and Shen Qianhu's room is here. Usually, there is no need to go here. It is really puzzling for the princess to pass by." Who doesn't know that Wen Gu is from Tingfeng Building Only Zhao Wuyou's confidants or trusted people can enter Tingfeng Tower, so Wen Gu's question will also become Zhao Wuyou's question.
If Mu Yao can't answer, it is estimated that this matter will be difficult.
Huo Huo hurriedly said, "The Princess is passing by in a dream!"
"The princess's dream is really good. I accidentally passed by the door of Shen Qianhu's room and fell on the bed by accident?" Wen Gu put away the pulse pillow, "It's nothing serious, turn over and let me have a look."
Mu Yao curled her lips, "It hurts."
"Do you still know it hurts? You know it hurts, so you don't sleep this early and come here to join in the fun? The princess thinks it's not dawn yet, so she hurried out to practice with Shen Qianhu? This whip is almost perfect?" Wen Gu He glanced at Shen Yan meaningfully.
Shen Yan said, "Wen Gu, don't speak rudely. I've behaved well and sat upright. I have never done anything to insult the Shangshufu. Your Shangshufu and my Dongchang have always been the same. I don't want to find the Shangshufu's bad luck. .”
"There is a saying in this world, I wonder if Shen Qianhu has heard it?" Wen Gu smiled coldly, and pointed to the beam above his head, "The so-called upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked."
Shen Yan was startled, he also knew about Zhao Wuyou, this Zhao Wuyou now...
Hearing these words, Shen Yan, who was not good at words, couldn't answer for a while.This is good, one can't answer, the other doesn't know what to say, being tossed about by Wen Gu, it seems that they really have some ulterior relationship.
Shen Yan's expression became a little colder, and it seemed that something that was clearly not happening was made real by Wen Gu.Martial arts practitioners, how could they suffer such a great humiliation, straightened their body immediately, "Wen Gu, don't..."
"Don't do anything!" Wen Gu shoved Fang Zi into Shen Yan's hand, "The injury on this arm has just healed, and I thought you would be able to go back in two days, but now it's fine, you still have to make do with it." month. Let me tell you, if you mess around again, you will be a servant of the Shangshu Mansion for the rest of your life."
Shen Yan was stunned, "What is this?"
"Can't you open your eyes and see for yourself?" Wen Gu rolled his eyes, "You people in Dongchang, I think they are all oily, how come you are such a dull person, you really seem to have picked it up. This is a prescription. Taking it internally and applying it externally, this young man has injured his waist lightly, if it is not cured, he will be able to bear it in the future."
"Huo Huo!" Shen Yan handed Fang Zi out.
Wen Gu said again, "Why, do you still want the little girl Huo Huo to clean up the mess for you? You can clean up the mess yourself. If a man dares to act bravely, you don't even have this responsibility when you come out of Dongchang?"
Shen Yan frowned, Wen Gu had a firecracker this morning?What is the reason for this endless rivalry with him?
"What are you looking at!" Wen Gu blew his beard and stared, "Don't think that you are a thousand households in Dongchang, but I can tell you that you came to the Shangshu Mansion by order to serve the princess as a slave. Now you Make the princess like this, look at it and take good care of yourself?"
On the bed, Mu Yao was very happy, but in front of Wen Gu, she still had to show the generosity that a princess should have, "Okay, thank you Doctor Wen, I will let Huo Huo not intervene in this matter, let Mr. Shen take care of it." Take care of mine."
Shen Yan's brows twitched, the smirk on the princess's face was really not a good thing.Thinking of what the princess said to him not long ago, Shen Yan felt extremely uneasy.
What is good care?What do you mean you don't have to let Huo Huo intervene?
How long will it take to treat this as a cow and a horse?
Elder brother has left the capital, and the East Factory is at a time when there is no leader. At this moment, I am still working as a slave in the Shangshu Mansion. I really feel aggrieved, and I really want to die.
Sending Wen Gu out of the room, Wen Gu turned his head and said, "Don't think that I don't know what your kid is thinking, the princess suffered internal injuries, this is not something that girl Huo Huo can do, you did it, right? ?”
Shen Yan didn't like to argue at all, so he nodded seriously, "The princess came in by himself, and I accidentally slapped you, you are also a martial arts practitioner, you should understand that many things come naturally from habit and are absolutely not intentional. I hope that Dr. Wen can have a good talk with Mr. Zhao when he goes back. Dongchang..."
"I'm not from Dongchang. I don't care about Dongchang's affairs. The rise and fall of your Dongchang has nothing to do with me." Wen Gu said, "I only care about the people in Shangshu's mansion, so you'd better not act rashly. You are now If you are a servant of the Shangshu Mansion, if you do something during this period, then the Shangshu Mansion will definitely not be able to escape the responsibility. Do you understand?"
Shen Yan closed his eyes and remained silent.
"Don't think that if you don't talk, I can let you go." Wen Gu snorted twice, "There are one or two in Dongchang, why did they get into trouble with the Shangshufu? The one above you is like this, and you are like this , the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked."
"Don't speak so harshly, you have the ability to go to him for your grievances with Lord Qiantose, don't vent your anger on me." Shen Yan is not easy to bully, "You have the ability to take care of your baby bump, if you don't, just obediently be your grandfather , don’t rely on the old and sell the old all day long.”
After finishing speaking, Shen Yan turned around and left.
Standing there, Wen Gu was out of breath, the older one left his pregnant daughter to go to Jinling City, and the younger one was still like this...Wen Gu held his breath in his chest, feeling like he was going to explode with anger .
If there is such a kind of elder brother, there is such a kind of younger brother, Mu Baili will take care of everything without saying a word, and Shen Yan will do the same if he doesn't keep it safe, and then the princess will give birth to the child without saying a word Well, this, this Shangshu Mansion is probably in a mess.
"It's unreasonable! It's unreasonable!" Wen Gu came back cursing, making Suxi laugh.
"This Shen Yan hasn't been reprimanded in Dongchang yet, when will it be your turn to scold him? Although he is the young master's uncle, he was not born by you after all, so I can't let you!" Su Xi smiled and comforted , patted Wen Gu on the shoulder, "Forget it, don't worry about it here, you'd better think about it, how to make the young master get better as soon as possible. I have to go out every now and then to find out where the thing that can't die is."
Wen Gu came back to his senses and nodded accordingly.
Although Jian Yan said that as long as he avoided it, it would be fine, but one day he would die by himself, so it would be fine.But the key point is that Maya may be manipulating him behind him. Maya is cruel and merciless. If Jian Yan is used, he will definitely not let Jian Yan die easily.
But on the other side of Prince Qiyou's mansion, there is no trace of Jian Yan, nor Xiao Rong coming out. You have been too quiet recently, you can't find the entry point for this matter at all, so you can only blindly go to the capital and send The shadow guards hang around more.
This kind of thing of using a blind cat to touch a dead mouse is really not an option.
Fortunately, Zhao Wuyou's body gradually improved, this was the most gratifying thing for Wen Gu.This belly is growing day by day, and the yearning and excitement for a new life makes Zhao Wuyou feel that the future is full of hope.
In the eyes of Zhao Wuyou and Mu Baili, two people who never had hope, it was probably the most beautiful ray of sunshine in their lives.
Judging from the time, this army should not have arrived at Jinling City, they are still on their way!I don't know if the wind and rain on this road have stopped, whether this road is smooth?
Zhao Wuyou wrote a calendar on the stone wall, counting the days when he left.He said that he would come back in a few months at most, and she believed it, with no doubts.
Pregnant people are used to thinking a lot, no one is an exception.
Zhao Wuyou had to worry about government affairs and the current situation because Mu Baili was not around, but this Wang Jinxiu was focused on taking the back seat.Who doesn't know that this queen is an empty shelf, anyone can replace her.
Now that she has a child, she is thinking that it is true that a mother is more valuable than a child.
However, Xia Lan was also pregnant, which made Wang Jinxiu feel more pressure from the outside world. All of them were pregnant, so she was not favored.The so-called advantages have also been gradually calmed down. Everyone has children. Why should the emperor be so rare about your children? When the time comes, mothers will be more expensive by their children, and they will have to return to the previous situation of getting status by virtue of women's favor.
This was the result that Wang Jinxiu absolutely didn't want to see. She had no family background, and she couldn't compare to Fu Yuying and Xia Lan in terms of talent, appearance and intelligence. What would she use to compete with others?
Sitting in front of Fu Yuying with a smile on her face, Wang Jinxiu said with a smile, "My sister looks really good."
"My sister looks good too." Fu Yuying smiled, lowered her head and played with the tiger-toed shoes in her hand.
"My sister's tiger-toed shoes are so beautifully made." Wang Jinxiu showed envy, "The night pearls on them are really well inlaid."
"If my sister is happy, I still have some fabrics in this box. Let Qiuxian and Caiyun embroider a pair." Fu Yuying smiled and put down the tiger-toed shoes in her hand, "I have a lot of pearls in my box, just let Caiyun Just go to the warehouse and pick it up. In this palace, we are all without relatives and no reason, if we can't watch and help each other, we will really be alone and helpless."
Wang Jinxiu bowed his head, "Sister, remember my sister's teaching." Er'er smiled lightly, "I heard from the old man at home that the belly is a man or a woman, and you can tell the clue by looking at the woman's face. I heard that she is pregnant. For a woman, the better and more radiant her complexion, she is a daughter. If her complexion is not as gloomy as before, she is probably a son."
Fu Yuying smiled and said, "The imperial physician has already felt your pulse, and he is talking about the prince, so what else do you have to worry about. It doesn't matter if I am a man or a woman, as long as I am healthy!"
When she said this, Fu Yuying looked at Wang Jinxiu stroking her own face, feeling a little worried.
"There haven't been any newcomers in the harem yet, and we are quite favored. Even if we are princesses, it doesn't matter. We still have a chance when we are young." Fu Yuying smiled, and looked carefully at Wang Jinxiu's stomach, " It is estimated that it will be born in the second half of the year!"
Wang Jinxiu stroked her swollen belly, "There are still three months until the birth."
But now she is just a Zhaoyi, in terms of seniority, she is not as good as the Fu Yuying in front of her.She thought, if she could really have a son, she might be able to be raised to the imperial concubine position, right?The prince's mother cannot be too low in status, otherwise, how can she be the prince, how can she be the crown prince?
If I accidentally gave birth to a daughter and Fu Yuying gave birth to a son, then what I should have would be ruined.
Seeing Wang Jinxiu looking up at her belly, Fu Yuying said with a slight smile, "Although you and I are sisters, my child is still a step behind and still not as good as you."
Wang Jinxiu was a little embarrassed, "Sister, don't say these things, you are a person with a body, and now it's great to be able to give birth to this child safely." She really would be ashamed, if it wasn't for her and the queen, Fu Yuying's first The child has already been born.
Gently stroking her belly, Fu Yuying's eyes darkened, the pain of losing a child is not something that can be forgotten just by saying it.
"My sister is pregnant now, but this Xia Lan is also pregnant." Wang Jinxiu showed embarrassment, "Did my sister ever think that now she has been serving the emperor longer than us, and if she is gossiping in front of the emperor."
She paused, and looked at Fu Yuying with a look of panic, "Sister, aren't you worried? You and I are both healthy people now, and the emperor just comes and walks at night, but she is still with the emperor when she is pregnant. If a child is born in the future, then we..."
"What does my sister mean?" Fu Yuying pretended not to know, "She is just a lowly position now, what else should my sister worry about? Although she is pregnant and still serves her, this is the emperor's acquiescence. You and I have What way? Is it possible to run to the emperor and ask the emperor to drive her out?"
Wang Jinxiu's face turned blue and white, and when she closed her eyes, her face showed innocence and grievance.
With a soft sigh, Fu Yuying took Wang Jinxiu's hand and said, "Sister, don't worry, she no longer has the backing of the Duke's Mansion, so she is a poor person. You see her beautiful and beautiful now, but did you see her in the past?" How does she look desolate and withered? The women in this palace are all at one time and another, whether they are beautiful or down, they can't help themselves."
"You have seen her beauty, but you should also know that this beauty may not last for a long time. Since ancient times, there have been three thousand in the harem, you and I are not happy with Daji, and we can't charm the king's heart, so you have to relax, why torture yourself What about yourself? The emperor is here, so I can serve you well. If the emperor doesn't come, then live your own life well, why worry so much?"
Wang Jinxiu nodded, "Being taught by my sister is like enlightenment."
Coming out of Lianhua Palace sullenly, Wang Jinxiu's expression turned extremely ugly.Caiyun didn't dare to say anything, now that her master is pregnant, her temper is becoming more and more weird, and she often gets angry when she says she is angry.
With a helpless sigh, Caiyun followed behind.
Qiu Xian watched the master and servant walk away, and then came back in a hurry, glanced at Fu Yuying, who had a slightly gloomy face, "Your Majesty?"
"All gone?" Fu Yuying snorted coldly.
Qiu Xian nodded, "They're all gone, but this servant feels that Wang Zhaoyi's words seem a little strange when he comes this time."
"It's not just weird, it's almost here to sow discord." Fu Yuying sneered twice, "I didn't expect to learn a lesson last time, and this time I dared to move my mind on my head. Wanting to use me to deal with Xia Lan, it's a wishful thinking The abacus is really good!"
Qiuxian paused, "Since the empress knows, why..."
"She is pregnant now, no matter what, even if I bring the evidence to the emperor, the emperor will make a big deal into a small matter. Besides, do you think if I take out the things at this time, the emperor and everyone will think so Me? It's because I'm jealous that I wantonly spread rumors and slander the pregnant concubine, just to make way for the child in my womb!" Fu Yuying smiled wryly.
"Your Majesty, is the evidence in our hands useless?" Qiu Xian frowned.
Fu Yuying shook her head, "It's useless for the time being, haven't you noticed that she's getting more and more ostentatious? There's not even the slightest bit of cautiousness now."
Qiu Xian was angrily, "I did such a thing in the past, but now I can still do it like this. I don't know how God has eyes."
"It doesn't matter how long the eyes are, anyway, she thinks that she can treat others as pawns, but she doesn't know that she is the pawns in other people's hands." Fu Yuying thinks about herself, why is she not a pawn?
"She's been going to the Queen's place to pay her respects recently. What's on her mind? Do you really think we don't know?" Qiu Xian's eyes turned cold, "I did it once before, and now I dare to come again. This Wang Jinxiu is really not long. memory."
"She wants me to deal with Xialan, but I won't let her do so." Fu Yuying smiled coldly, "Xialan is also a poor person now, and she is also looking for an ally she can rely on. In this harem, there is no eternal There is no permanent enemy, and there is no permanent friend. Therefore, Wang Jinxiu dares to continue to join hands with the queen, so I have to let you know what is dangerous."
"Isn't your empress afraid of tearing your face?" Qiu Xian asked.
Fu Yuying shook her head, "She didn't dare! Besides, I didn't go here this time to negotiate a peace. I just went to have a look. It seems that there is nothing wrong with walking around the Yongshou Palace. I always stay in the palace for a long time , I am afraid that others will forget my existence."
Qiu Xian nodded, "The emperor hasn't been here recently."
"Yes!" Fu Yuying smiled, "The emperor is busy with government affairs and cannot come to Lianhua Palace, so I will go to Yongshou Palace to see him."
It's time to move around, otherwise the palace will think that she, Fu Yuying, has fallen out of favor, and this life will be too miserable.One must always think of one's own grace, and always be on guard against other people's plots and calculations. This is not a human life.
Looking up at Yunxi standing outside the door, Fu Yuying was slightly dazed.
"Sometimes I really wish that someone could take me and leave here desperately." Fu Yuying whispered, "Qiu Xian, have you ever thought about leaving the palace? Do you know what it's like to be free?"
Qiu Xian narrowed her eyes, "Since I followed the young master, I have never thought of a day of freedom. The empress is different from the slaves. The slaves are from the countryside. If the young master hadn't given up a few mouthfuls of food, he would have been reincarnated a long time ago. The servant girl also knows that the young master is only cultivating his own power by doing this, and he has placed us in various places in order to act as an eyeliner."
"But ma'am, eyeliner also has the benefits of eyeliner. There are also family members in the servant's house. All these years, they have relied on the servant's own monthly money to survive well. One is to live for the family. Sometimes it is not worth thinking about it. Why live for them?"
Speaking of this, Qiu Xian sighed softly, "But after thinking about it, isn't it more terrifying to live alone in this world? It's better to be dead than to have no one to look forward to, no one to think about. "
Fu Yuying thought of her younger brother. It was for revenge and to give him a place to live.Now that she has done it, it's a pity that she has wronged herself, and she has to serve the man she doesn't like, and suffers like a cage day and night.But I took this step by myself, so who is to blame?
"Nine times out of ten there are unsatisfactory things in life, and the empress doesn't have to take it to heart." Qiu Xian smiled, "The servants have lived in the palace since they were young, and gradually got used to it. This palace is a second home, it's nothing inconvenient."
"Before entering the palace, the young master told everyone that getting used to it is a terrible thing, and all you have to do is get used to it. Once you get used to being terrible, there will be nothing more terrible." Qiu Xian took a deep breath, "Your Majesty, you What do you say?"
I'm used to being in the palace, so I wanted to go out for a while.Later—without hope, it became despair, and then a flat heart was born from despair, and there was nothing to ask for but to try to keep myself alive.
Fu Yuying nodded, "I didn't expect you to see it more thoroughly than I do."
"Your maidservant doesn't see it clearly, but your maidservant is used to it." Qiu Xian bowed and withdrew.
Yun Xi stood outside and heard the two people's words clearly.Fu Yuying said something to him, and he knew it in his heart, but if it wasn't suitable, it was not suitable.He is the person on the tip of the knife, and she is the canary raised in the palace, which is simply impossible.
Some things don't need to be held tightly, but to be let go, otherwise no one will end well.
We are all smart people, we all know it well.
Fu Yuying went to Yongshou Palace, the emperor happened to be taking a nap, seeing her coming, he asked Xia Lan to retreat.Compared with Xia Lan's ulterior motives, he prefers Fu Yuying's intelligence.
Fu Yuying is intelligent, but rarely involved in government affairs.
But Xia Lan was different. Ever since she was pregnant, when the emperor looked at her, he always had some side thoughts, and always felt that Xia Lan was planning something.The feeling of being calculated by others every day is really unpleasant.
What's more, let's do the calculations, but the calculations are born without any technical content, and the more people think about it, the more disgusted they become.
Fu Yuying went to Yongshou Palace and stayed in Yongshou Palace, so Xia Lan knew that she did it on purpose.This trip also made everyone's eyes open again, and they shifted their expectations for Xia Lan to Fu Yuying.
After taking a nap with the emperor, Fu Yuying left Yongshou Palace.When she walked out of the palace gate, Xia Lan was standing outside the palace road, there was no one around, she stood there and saluted Fu Yuying respectfully.
Fu Yuying took a deep breath, "My sister's current status seems to be too perfunctory to show this courtesy to me."
Hearing this, Xia Lan was slightly taken aback, then knelt down on the ground and saluted again, "Your maidservant is impolite, please forgive me."
Fu Yuying looked at her cute and pitiful appearance, and slowly stepped forward to stand in front of her.In that condescending posture, there is no arrogance but dignity and elegance.Fu Yuying said unhurriedly, "In the past, we were both honored, but now my younger sister has fallen to this point. It is inevitable to make people feel sad. Zuo Buren has encountered many difficulties in his life. If he is down today, he may become a great success tomorrow."
Xia Lan stared at Fu Yuying in front of her with deep meaning. These words were a bit profound, and she was thinking about what Fu Yuying meant.Concentrating her eyes, Xia Lan bowed her head obediently, "Thank you for your reminder, my servant will definitely keep it in mind."
"You have put so many things in your heart, can you still pretend now?" Fu Yuying smiled, "Forget it, it's inconvenient for me to say more, my sister can do it for herself! In this palace, there are eyes and eyes. Knife, if you can't prevent others' eyes, you will inevitably have to be stabbed. If the knife is light, it will toss people half to death, and if it is heavy, it will kill them. My sister is smart, and I think she is also a person who suffers from a fall and gains wisdom."
Xia Lan saluted, "I understand."
"I hope you really understand." Fu Yuying sighed softly, "This look and figure are rare in the harem, so cherish yourself!"
Waiting for Fu Yuying to leave, Xia Lan's eyes darkened slightly, and then Bi Chun helped her up.
Bichun was puzzled, "Master, what does this Fu Jieyu mean? Knowing that the young master is pregnant, she dared to ask the young master to kneel and salute. This is outside the Yongshou Palace, so it is inevitable that there is some suspicion of bullying."
"She's always thoughtful, and what she says has a lot of meaning." Xia Lan let out a long breath, and then smiled bitterly, "No one in this palace can be trusted. I thought I could fight, but now it seems that only It's up to me."
"Master?" Bi Chun frowned, "What's wrong with you?"
Xia Lan shook her head.
Bichun asked again, "Then master still going to Kunning Palace?"
"No need to go, let's go back and rest!" Xia Lan turned around and walked back, there was no point in going.It seems that the queen has other thoughts, even if she goes, it will be of no use.
Two low wry smiles, the status in this palace, the emperor's favor, everything is enough to kill a person.
Others dare not gossip about Fu Yuying making Xia Lan kneel down, but they can't hide it from Kunning Palace.Now the empress is leaning on the soft couch, enjoying Qin An's pinching comfortably, and then lazily raised her eyelids.
Wang Jinxiu was waiting by the side, "I didn't expect that Fu Jieyu was benevolent and moral on the surface, but in fact, she was also jealous in her heart."
"How can you not be jealous? There are so many women in this palace, but the emperor has only one person." The queen glanced coldly at Wang Jinxiu, and then closed her eyes, "But you have done a good job in this matter. He is a healthy person, after this incident, he reckons that if something happens in the future, it will be a grievance between the two of them."
After finishing speaking, the queen sighed softly, if Xia Lan's child was still alive that day, it is estimated that the Xia family may not have such a result today.If the Xia family is still there, the layout of the court may not be like this.
After all, the calculations of people are not as good as the calculations of heaven. The Xia family made a wrong move and underestimated Zhao Wuyou's ability.
"Thank you, ma'am." Wang Jinxiu saluted with a slight smile.
Because the body is getting heavier and heavier, the salute is becoming more and more inconvenient.The Empress looked at Wang Jinxiu's belly, the light in her eyes gradually became cooler.Once upon a time, she also wanted to have such a day, but later, she realized that it was just a delusion.
Now it seems that there is nothing to look forward to besides clinging to this back position.
"Keep an eye on Fu Yuying." The queen rubbed her brows, "Go ahead and let Fu Yuying deal with Xia Lan! No matter who gets hurt, the emperor's side will not be happy. The emperor is very suspicious now, who dares to play tricks in front of the emperor, no matter win or lose Nothing will end well.”
Wang Jinxiu's heart was suffocated, and she immediately nodded, "Your Majesty's words are absolutely true."
"Take good care of the baby in your belly, and give birth to a prince in the future, and your wish of raising your position will be fulfilled." The queen looked tired, "You go back first, do your job well, I can't treat you badly—and you mother's family."
"Yes!" The expression on Wang Jinxiu's face immediately tightened upon hearing about her natal family.There are some things that she cannot change.No matter how favored the emperor was, he never thought about her natal family. After all, the imperial court and the harem should not be confused.
