The little lady in the palace

Chapter 46 Discussion
"Yes." Yu Yin could only nod in admission.In fact, she regretted it from the moment she finished that sentence.

It really shouldn't have been told to him.It serves no purpose other than to annoy him.

She looked up and saw Meng Junhuai took a deep breath with a cold face.

"Your Highness..." Yu Yin called out, and he looked sideways, wondering what else she wanted to say, but she suddenly got up and left the bed.

He watched without saying a word, and she stopped by the table, took the teacup and made tea.Just as hot water was pouring into the cup, a drop of tear slipped down her side cheek, before she raised her hand to wipe it, it splashed into the cup.

Yu Yin's hands froze, so she put the cup of tea aside, and replaced it with another tea cup to brew again.

She was in a panic, thinking about what to say for a while while brewing.It would be great if she could take that sentence back, or, she told him to let him not care, should she have a baby or will she?

Otherwise, he must think she is a bad person, think that she is a woman who doesn't want to have children, because she is afraid of pain and doesn't want to have children?

Thinking about it, Yuyin sneaked a sneaky glance at Meng Junhuai, before her gaze fell down on his face in disappointment.She walked up to him carefully holding the teacup: "Your Highness..."

He didn't answer, and she paused for a while, then realized that maybe she should apologize seriously.

Meng Junhuai looked at her calmly after holding it for a while, then put the teacup on the low table beside him, and let out a chuckle to express his dissatisfaction. Then dwarfed.

"Yu Yin!" He blocked her without thinking too much, and helped her up before her knees touched the ground.Then she froze in embarrassment, the hand on her arm loosened and tightened back and forth twice, and finally let out a heavy breath helplessly.

"No need to do this, sit." He stretched out his hand and pulled her directly onto his lap.Then he found a suitable posture, wrapped his hands around her waist, put his forehead on her back and said, "This...we can discuss it."

Yu Yin was pressed against the back by him, she felt her spine trembling, and said in a daze: "Why... discuss it?"

"I can't say that if you don't want to have a baby, you won't have one, because I still want a son-in-law." Meng Junhuai paused, then shook his head after deliberation, "Forget it, let's start from the beginning."

He said: "Marriage and having children are two people's affairs. If you have made up your mind from the beginning that you don't want children, then the Xie family can resign the marriage form when the father decrees the marriage—you didn't mention this at the time." Now, I naturally think that it is logical to have children after marriage. Then it can’t be my fault that I want a son and a daughter, right? "

"I know, Your Highness is right... I was wrong." Yuyin's voice was choked up again with complicated emotions, "But I'm just afraid, I... I didn't think so much before I got married, but this month, I closed my eyes. As soon as I close my eyes, I think about the concubine giving birth, and even my own bed is covered in blood in the dream! I..."

She wanted to look back at him, but turned to one side, but he let go of his hand and let her turn around.

Yu Yin said angrily: "I also think it's wrong for me. I married Your Highness well, but now I say I don't want to have a baby... It's like cheating Your Highness! But I, I'm still afraid after a month of delay... I'm not Intentionally cheating His Highness! But I can't get over this hurdle!"

Meng Junhuai felt distressed and wanted to laugh seeing her obviously collapsed appearance, and after a moment of silence, he raised his hand and wiped her tears: "Listen to me... I know you didn't think so much at all, and you didn't intend to lie Me; and you, know that I want a child. So I don't blame you, and you don't blame me for not taking your thoughts into account, let's take one step at a time."

Yu Yinben was crying in a daze, but for some reason, she suddenly seemed to be addicted to his soft words, and just wanted to hear him continue.

Meng Junhuai's smile faded by three points: "I think... the days are still long, and this matter is not in a hurry. If you get over this hurdle in the future, we can talk about the children's affairs. If you really can't make it through... "

His eyes calmly moved to her face, Yu Yin was nervous for a while, suffocated for a while, and asked with difficulty: "Your Highness... just divorced me?"

"Haha, I knew you wanted to go there!" He suddenly smiled, and turned her sideways to lay her down on the couch, "Why did I divorce you? It's not like there are no other children in the house."

There are already four children in the mansion, and she can't achieve the "childless" out of the seven rules no matter what - that must be because the regular wife can't have children by herself, and the husband is not allowed to take concubines, which leads to the complete extinction of the family. .

In this situation, he never thought of divorcing his wife!
Yu Yin lay on the couch and stared at him blankly, wanted to laugh, but felt that it was not right to laugh now, so her expression became more and more awkward.

"Stop crying!" Meng Junhuai scratched her nose, turned his head and raised his voice, "Yang Enlu, serve the wine."

"...Your Highness!" Yu Yin grabbed him in surprise, and thought to himself, didn't he agree to discuss it?

Meng Junhuai turned back to look at her: "For the time being, if you don't want a child, you don't have to... Well, I will ask someone to massage you later, so you won't be pregnant."

Yu Yin suddenly realized that she also vaguely remembered that there seemed to be a method of massage contraception.

Her tongue became a little knotted: "Then we... let's go to another day, okay?"

Meng Junhuai narrowed his eyes: "No."

In the end, the two simply lay down.

While staring at her unwillingly, Meng Junhuai comforted himself to be content - he hadn't slept with her in a month, and today he was finally able to lie down here, he had to be content!

Yu Yin huddled in his arms embarrassingly: "Your Highness, don't be angry, I...well, I'm not prepared at all today."

Meng Junhuai raised his eyebrows: Oh, you still have to prepare?The last time I came straight to it, I couldn’t even persuade you, okay?
With a blushing face, Yu Yin lowered her gaze and retracted into the quilt, so she watched his hand come over, slide from her waist to her back, and then caressed her back up and down.

Yu Yin: "Your Highness, go to sleep..."

The voice from outside the quilt was very indifferent: "Don't worry, let's go along with the hair first."

... What the fuck!

She pressed his arm with her hand in protest, and when she heard him laugh, she said, "But there is one more thing."

"what?"

He lifted the quilt and poked his head in: "The matter of having a baby can be discussed, but if you lie to me again, I'll be really angry."

Meng Junhuai spoke very seriously.

It's understandable that she was frightened by Youshi, afraid of pain, and didn't want children, but it's another thing for her to find other reasons to keep him out.

"Did I force you to do something you don't want to do?" He frowned and asked, "If you don't speak up, do you have to avoid me like this? What can you do if you just tell me? Can I beat you or eat you?"

"Oh..." Yuyin bowed her head in embarrassment, grabbed the skirt of her clothes with both hands, "I won't do it anymore."

Then a good night's sleep, she rarely dreamed that the bed was covered with blood.When Meng Junhuai woke up in the morning, she was still asleep, huddled in his arms, in the same position as before going to bed.

Ok?
He thought about it, it seemed that she really didn't kick him or hit him that night, was she tired from crying and had no strength?
Meng Junhuai sneered to himself, and raised his hand to touch her eyelashes. Her eyelids trembled and she didn't wake up, so he got up lightly, went to the screen and tapped it twice, signaling for the servants to come in and serve.

The few who came in were maidservants. Meng Junhuai remembered that the eunuchs in front of him were all replaced by maidservants from the day Youshi gave birth.If he was in the front house on weekdays, the only eunuch he could see in front of him was Yang Enlu.

He heard that it was the main courtyard's idea, so he wondered if she felt that the eastern courtyard couldn't serve him during confinement, and she didn't let him come because he was afraid that he would get bored, so he sent a few more girls in front of him?
So Meng Junhuai didn't ask any more questions, she was kind anyway.Whether he accepts them or not is up to him in the end, so let's keep them. Anyway, most of the work in front of me is the same whether the eunuch serves or the maid serves, and her kindness is more important.

But didn't you talk about it last night?Now Meng Junhuai thought, it would be better to get rid of the maid, after all, in some cases it is easier for the eunuch to use.

For example, if he sleeps by himself in the front house, it will be fine to leave an eunuch in the house waiting.To keep a maid—to put it bluntly, to keep a girl, which is rather awkward.

So when Meng Junhuai walked out of the main courtyard, he said to Yang Enlu logically: "Change the maid in front of you, let's use an eunuch."

Yang Enlu: Ah...?
He groaned in an instant.At that time, because the prince was angry with the eunuch at every turn, he asked the princess to make the decision and replaced all the people in front with maidservants.The prince has not mentioned much these days, so he was relieved.

As a result, the prince said he would mention it, and he wanted to withdraw it directly?

Yang Enlu wiped off his cold sweat, and had to worry about the future again.

After Yi Yuyin woke up with a yawn, she opened the curtain and saw Yang Enlu.

Yang Enlu smiled apologetically, Shan Shan explained beside him: "Eunuch Yang has been waiting here for a while, and said he has something urgent to see you."

Yu Yin nodded: "Eunuch, what's the matter?"

Yang Enlu told the king Yijun's orders early this morning, and begged her in a very embarrassing way: "Wangfei, look, can you...persuade the prince?"

"Your Highness wants to use an eunuch, so let's change it back." Yu Yin said, "He was just a momentary fire at that time. You see, it has been a month, and it should have slowed down. Besides, people have to be replaced sooner or later. Go back, do you see any prince who went out with a group of girls?"

"Yes, that's what you said." Yang Enlu said with a bitter face, "But... the slave looks at the master, and he is not relieved. This month, there is only one slave who is always in front of him, and the slave still suffers. I hit the board twice—although it was meant to be played, and it wasn’t heavy, but..."

Yang Enlu was very distressed: "But the people below are not as good as the slaves who know what the Lord is thinking. If they are put down, they will have to be punished for a while. If they are transferred back, they will probably have to go back to recuperate."

Xie Yuyin: "..."

She really doesn't understand, is she so angry this time?Why?

In the study room of the Qianzhai, Meng Junhuai flipped through the booklet in his hand, momentarily annoyed and momentarily relieved.

What annoys him is that Dongchang is always more sophisticated than he thinks, and it takes him a lot of time to check whether anyone in the mansion has a close relationship with Dongchang, and even Xie Jiqing, who is in Jinyiwei, has trouble finding out.

What is gratifying is that so far, it seems that there is really nothing in my mansion that has anything to do with Dongchang.In contrast, the eldest brother has already sent seven or eight of them for various reasons, and the residences of the second, third, and fourth brothers were also found to be a little restless.

Meng Junhuai breathed a sigh of relief, raised his eyes, and saw an eunuch with low eyebrows coming in to serve tea.

"...Master." The eunuch nodded and bowed, obviously a little flustered.Meng Junhuai didn't care either, and took a sip of the cup, only to find that he was nervously glancing at the window.

He also glanced along, the window was closed, and a beautiful figure was reflected on the window paper.The tassel on the hairpin next to Qianying's ear swayed, he looked familiar, and thought for a moment... Is it Yuyin?

Meng Junhuai looked at the eunuch: "Wangfei is outside?"

"..." The eunuch's face turned pale immediately, "Yes..."

He wanted to ask her to come in as a matter of course, but in the moment of silence, he just heard her say again in a low voice: "Go, go quickly, try grinding ink."

"...?" Meng Junhuai frowned, and asked again, "What is she doing?"

"This..." The eunuch dared not say it while wiping away his cold sweat, his expression became serious, and the eunuch fell to his knees.

So the eunuch, who had just walked to the case and was about to grind ink, saw it and knelt down too.The two exchanged looks carefully, and the one who served the tea stammered, "This is... Wangfei heard that you are going to replace the eunuch, and I am afraid that you will be upset again, so I came here to see how it is..."

"Tch." Meng Junhuai was so angry that he was speechless, he raised his hand to let the two get up, and then he got up and walked out.

"...Master!" The one who came in to Yanmo bravely stopped him, and said tremblingly, "Master, it was the slaves' fault that I didn't serve you well before, the princess is kind..."

Hey little nun?How many days has it been since he let the person in front of him speak for her? !

With a sullen face, Meng Junhuai shouted "Get out" and scolded the man away, but still strode out.

Outside the house, Yu Yin, who was listening carefully to the reaction inside the house, saw him coming out, her first reaction was to turn around and want to run away.

"Stop!" Meng Junhuai yelled, and she stopped as soon as she turned around, her back stretched straight.

He went around to look at her: "Princess, you are here with me..." He thought for a while and thought of a suitable word, "Stalking?"

"I didn't..." Yu Yin retorted with a sad face.

Meng Junhuai looked at her leisurely with his hands behind his back: "Are you feeling sorry for these eunuchs so you changed them? I thought you changed because you were afraid that I would get bored. All of them are beautiful girls, and there are those with bound feet. .”

He nodded slightly, leaned closer to her and said, "It happens that you don't want to have children, and I just took them into the house this morning."

"Ah?" Yu Yin was obviously shocked, and then thought why he was like this?In the future, if someone is added to the house, someone should tell her right away?

Then, she suddenly felt a little awkward, and this little awkwardness made her want to speak, but she didn't know exactly what she wanted to say.

Meng Junhuai smiled, waiting curiously for her reaction.After seeing her obviously hesitated for a long time, she finally frowned and raised her head to look at him: "Your Highness thinks... bound feet look good?"

"...?" How did she choose this sentence as the key point between "he bluntly said that she didn't want to have children" and "he took other girls into the house"?
"It's not good-looking! It's scary! It hurts my eyes!" Meng Junhuai was so angry that he reached out to hug her and walked into the house, "Sit with me for a while, so you can keep your eyes clean!"
