The little lady in the palace

Chapter 14
Xie Yuyin left together with Meng Junhuai, and she kept turning her head to look at the main courtyard after walking a long distance—she felt that it was really inappropriate to leave Concubine You there like this!

You Shi had just had her baby's gas, and she was not familiar with the main courtyard, what if she needed something, and her master was not around, what should I do if the courtyard couldn't solve it?
Just because Meng Junhuai couldn't walk quickly because his injury was not healed, he paid more attention to her, and took a panoramic view of her looking back again and again.

After a few times, he really wanted to tease her: Hey, silly girl, you really didn't see that Youshi was plotting against you?

When the matter came to him, You Shi had already recovered - how could it be so fast if you really got pregnant?

Of course, it might be a light movement, but if it was that light, it would be too exaggerated for Youshi to lie on the couch in her main room with tears in his eyes, looking weak and powerless.

In short, Youshi is not [-]% okay in this matter, and as long as there is something untrue, it can only be attracted to Xie Yu.

He thought to himself that Youshi was spoiled by him and made too much trouble, and he wanted her to restrain herself in the future, while seeing Xie Yuyin praying in front of the Buddha and looking back, he was obviously really worried .

Hey, his new princess is really stupid!

Meng Junhuai endured all the way, and did not say these words clearly, but after entering his own residence, Xie Yuyin was still subconsciously looking towards the main courtyard through the wall, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

Meng Junhuai put his finger on her shoulder, pointing to the rosewood embroidered pier next to him: "Sit."

"Huh? Oh." Xie Yuyin pulled back her thoughts, restrained her worry, and sat down as told.

He lay down on the couch self-consciously: "The people in your main courtyard are not stupid. If there is something really wrong, they will report it in time. You don't have to worry so much."

Xie Yuyin was surprised and uncomfortable with his casual attitude.That's his child too, why does he look like he doesn't care much?
She looked at the man lying on the couch who was reading a book comfortably, and said firmly, "Then what if it's urgent?"

Meng Junhuai yawned: "There's nothing urgent."

"Your Highness, why are you like this..." A ray of obvious complaint suddenly fell into his ears.

Meng Junhuai turned his head to the side, and saw Xie Yuyin sitting there looking at him, his brows were full of surprise and complaint: "A woman has to go to the gate of hell to give birth, besides, Your Highness, you... Even if you don't care about the safety of the side concubine, you should seek safety for your child, right?"

"...Princess." At first he felt it was funny, and wanted to argue, but he fell silent as soon as he called out.

Her eyes, which were always full of compassion, were now serious.She was seriously arguing with him about this matter, or rather, she was seriously thinking that he was wrong!

If he continued to act indifferent, she might really hate him.

But does he care if she hates him?
Thinking of this, Meng Junhuai choked suddenly, calmed down, and looked over again: "Don't be angry, listen to me."

But I don't know how to say it - tell her clearly about the delicate ends inside?That would be him adding oil and vinegar to this feud between wives and concubines.

Xie Yuyin bit her lip and waited for his words with her eyes downcast with a cold face, when she heard him sigh: "Yang Enlu."

Yang Enlu stepped forward in response.

He said: "Let Dr. Zheng go back to the main courtyard to guard, and tell him when Concubine You is completely safe and can go back to the east courtyard, and then let him leave."

"Yes." Yang Enlu agreed.

Meng Junhuai raised his eyelids, looked at Xie Yuyin for a while: "Tonight, I have to wrong the concubine to squeeze with my husband."

"...Your Highness?" Xie Yuyin took a breath of cold air, her face flushed uncontrollably.

He looked at her expression, a little disgusted but wanted to laugh: "I haven't recovered from my injury, so I can't 'move'." After a pause, he said, "I just need to tell you something."

In the courtyard in the northernmost part of the Wangfu, the intermittent voices of discussions slowly engulfed with the evening wind in early spring.

Su Shi leaned on the couch with a soft pillow and was dazed. There was a window next to the couch. Through the window paper, she could vaguely see that the lights in the opposite room were also on.

That house lived in the Gu family who came in with her when the princess entered the mansion.At this time in the past, Gu Shi was asleep, but today it seems that she can't sleep anymore.

The things ahead spread like wildfire, and they all knew about it here.In the beginning, it was said that Concubine You had her fetal gas when she greeted Concubine Zheng, but the prince didn't seem to say anything, and asked Concubine You to rest in the main courtyard and Doctor Zheng to wait on her.

Later, around lunch time, Concubine You went back to her East courtyard.I heard that before she went back, she made a special trip to report to the county prince, but she didn't say anything up front, and the county prince didn't even visit her again.

The main concubine still stayed in the king's room in Yijun.

On their side, those who entered the house earlier reacted quickly, and immediately someone stuffed money to inquire about the specific reasons.Mrs. Su heard from the servant girl next to Mrs. Jiang that the princess of Yi County had lunch with her. In the afternoon, someone saw the princess walking in the yard and reading for a while on the porch. One for dinner.

In short, the couple has been together.Now that the twilight is falling, I heard that the servants and eunuchs that the princess was serving in front of her have all passed away. The princess must spend the night at King Yijun's place.

Su stared at the carvings on the window lattice in a daze. After staring for a long time, the colors in his eyes blurred into pieces.She suddenly regained her senses, blinked slowly, and then continued to be in a daze.

These events on this day have nothing to do with them, but it is reasonable to cause so many discussions in these courtyards. After all, every move in the past may affect their future fate.

But what makes Su more concerned is that "these things have nothing to do with them" - this kind of feeling is really bad.For the Su family, although the struggle between the main concubine and the side concubine is dangerous, it is better than their current so-called stability that can't even talk.

Su took a deep breath, recalling that she wanted to show her face to the princess during the Lantern Festival. Now it seems that she thought too simply at that time, and let the princess remember, she even wanted to show her face. Did not see.

The concubine is so high, she was wrong.

"Mu He." Mrs. Su reluctantly loosened her brows and called someone over, "Look, prepare a gift for the Eldest Miss and the Second Miss, and send it to Concubine He in the morning. Let me just say that I met you by chance when I was taking a walk." I fell in love with the eldest lady, and I think I like it very much."

Mu He replied "No", Su Shi calmed down, and added another sentence after weighing it: "Stop dealing with the East Courtyard in the future."

In the main courtyard, Xie Yuyin returned to her room early the next morning.After Youshi left, the room was rearranged, even the bedding was changed, and there was no trace of being lived in by others.

Zhao Chengrui led a few eunuchs to wait beside him, inevitably he was a little nervous - the concubine let the side concubine squeeze out from the main courtyard, although it was only one night, but who knows if she has any knots in her heart?
Xie Yuyin didn't notice it at all.

When she left yesterday, she was really worried about Youshi, so naturally she had nothing to worry about; as for now, she was thinking about what King Yijun said to her.

Last night, the two of them talked together for a long time under the quilt - in fact, he was lying on her stomach at first, but it was a bit strange to talk like this for a long time, and she turned over later.

He explained to her slowly, at first she felt that what he said was inconsistent, and then she slowly found out some clues.

For example, he mentioned that "Concubine You is at odds with the former Guo family", and also mentioned that "You's nature is to be strong and love to compete for superiority". She listened ignorantly, and suddenly a flash of light flashed in her mind, and she suddenly realized: " Your Highness wants to say... Concubine You is fighting against me?!"

As a result, he stopped talking for a while.

Yuyin wasn't sure if she guessed right, and she couldn't see his expression clearly in the dark, so she had to fumble and ask: "Then what do you think I should do now, Your Highness?"

Then she murmured that she really didn't understand these things, and she was still trying to read his expression.He suddenly turned his head to look back, which startled her.

In the dim light, she could still feel his gentle smile: "It's good that you are like this now."

He put his arms around her shoulders, and hugged her vigorously, but his tone sounded a bit awkward: "I like you, you are dedicated to kindness, and if you think I'm wrong, you can just say it, like a concubine. Hmm... I like you so."

Xie Yuyin planted her head into the soft pillow at that time, and she still blush when she thinks about it now.

He he he... He said he liked her?Although thinking about it carefully, she also felt that he was actually "doing the right thing and not the person", but she also felt embarrassed...

She blushed when she thought of this, several times along the way.Now, after taking two deep breaths, he finally restrained himself desperately, and called Shan Shan: "Go and tell the East Courtyard, Ningzhi will stay in the Main Courtyard from now on."

She had discussed this with Meng Junhuai, and he felt that she was right, so he encouraged her to say this by herself, which made her feel full of confidence, and then felt...and also quite like him.

——Of course, this is also "right to the matter and not to the person"!

After Ning Zhi rested for three to five days, the injury was almost healed, and Shan Shan handed over the work of cleaning the table in the room to her, and asked her to learn other things while doing it.

Then for a few days, they all saw Ning Zhi hooked her head to look out when she was free, then turned her head to look at them, and then slipped out quietly.

Yuyin never mentioned her, because when she encountered this situation the first day, Zhao Chengrui secretly told her that He Jing was outside.

Outside the house, as soon as Ning Zhi stepped out of the threshold, He Jing dragged her all the way out of the main courtyard.Under the "threat" of the eldest lady, the servants pretended not to see them, and the two little girls ran all the way to the back of the yard before stopping, and He Jing asked Ning Zhi panting, "Did you get it?"

"No..." Ningzhi lowered her head, "I dare not..."

He Jing was about to cry: "If you don't help me, it will be too late! Su Fengyi goes to Concubine He's place every day, and even sends me things every day!"

"But..." Ningzhi felt very embarrassed.He Jing asked her to get the small seal of the princess. If this was discovered, she would definitely be punished!

But seeing He Jing like this, Ningzhi was also very anxious for her, so she contradicted for a while, and said, "But can this be done? Otherwise, otherwise, you can go directly to ask the princess to help! The princess is your mother and concubine, she will definitely help you of!"

"She's not my mother and concubine, who knows if she will help? What if she doesn't help, and tell the father?" He Jing stomped her feet anxiously, and then sat down at the base of the wall.

She wiped away her tears, and after thinking about it, she still couldn't restrain the fear in her heart. She grabbed Ningzhi's hand and begged, "I only need it for one day... no! Half a day! If you bring it, I'll cover it with a piece of paper, and immediately return!"
