Glory all the way

Chapter 211
"I don't dare, but I hope that Concubine Hui and Seventh Princess will forgive me."

Somewhat panicked, she got up and went to the center of the hall to bow down. Bai Yingluo didn't even need to look up to know the smug smiles in the eyes of Song Feiran, Dou Xiuqiao and the others.

"Come here, Mrs. Du lost her composure in public, take her down, and let Nanny Wu teach her the rules."

With an indifferent smile on her lips, Concubine Hui patted Seventh Princess's hand, signaling her to be calm, while turning around and talking to the maid beside her.

"Concubine Hui forgive me, she certainly didn't mean to offend, please forgive me, Concubine Hui."

Seeing this, Mrs. Xue quickly got up and knelt beside Bai Yingluo, begging for her favor.

"Go, help Madam Jing'an get up."

After Concubine Hui spoke, the servant girl supported Xue Shi and led her back to her original seat, then walked to Bai Yingluo's side, "Madam Du, please."

Knowing that there is no room for change in this matter, Bai Yingluo raised her eyes to look at Mrs. Xue, got up and silently followed the servant girl out of Jingren Palace.

After leaving the main entrance of the main hall and walking a few steps to the left, the palace maid stopped and said to Bai Yingluo with a smile: "This servant almost forgot that Madam Wu took the master's order to go to the palace to do some business. Mrs. Du, in public Lost your composure, according to the palace rules, you have to kneel for an hour facing the wall and think about it, why don't Madam Du just kneel here, when the time comes, the slaves will come and invite Madam to enter the hall."

Nodding her head in response, Bai Yingluo knelt under the eaves of the corridor.

Seeing Bai Yingluo knelt down obediently, the palace maid raised her eyebrows, as if saying "You are wise", then turned around and walked away quickly.

Although it was late autumn, the sun at noon was still a bit harsh. After only a while, Bai Yingluo felt a layer of sweat on her back and slightly dizzy in front of her eyes.

In the courtyard, there were handymen and palace servants whispering among themselves, some were discussing Bai Yingluo's identity, some were guessing what mistake she had made, and some were sighing softly.

Bai Yingluo breathed heavily and deeply, secretly cheering herself up in her heart, she only hoped that she could get through this hour and let her go out of the palace smoothly.

The laughter in the hall was clear and melodious. At the entrance of the hall, the servants passing the dishes walked back and forth briskly. The white gems kneeling under the eaves of the corridor became the focus of everyone's eyes in a short while.

I'm afraid that before the sun goes down, if Mrs. Xin Ke's No. [-] Scholar loses her composure in front of Concubine Hui, it will spread wildly in the palace.

Before Bai Yingluo's eyes, she felt dizzy for a while.

"Sister Luo, are you okay?"

After an unknown amount of time, Xue's concerned greeting came from Bai Yingluo's ear.

Turning his head to look, the foreign wives who entered the palace for the banquet walked out with their daughters, and the banquet was over.

Bai Yingluo's complexion was pale, and the sweat dripped from her forehead, as if it was extremely hot in midsummer. Xue's heart tightened, "Sister Luo, are you feeling unwell? Get up and sit down, I'll go to the front of your mother." plead."

Bai Yingluo tightly grasped Xue Shi's hand, "Auntie, the time is approaching, if I go to intercede now, not only will I kneel in vain, but I'm afraid I won't let it go in the future. If you persist for a while, let them calm down." It's enough to breathe..."

In a word, Bai Yingluo spoke out of breath, her lips were already pale and bloodless.

When she got up early, she only drank a bowl of corn porridge, and when she entered the palace, she was either standing or kneeling. During the whole afternoon, Bai Yingluo felt as if she had done physical labor for a long time.

But she knew that if she gave up at this moment, not only would it be as Concubine Hui and Song Feiran wanted, but there would still be a lot of trouble waiting for her from now on, so it's better to let them vent their anger and feel that they are extremely boring. It's good to forget yourself completely.

Although Xue Shi knew that what Bai Yingluo said was right, but seeing her complexion was extremely bad, Xue Shi couldn't help feeling anxious.

Pursing her lips, Xue sighed lightly, stood up and went outside.

The sun moved from the center to slightly westward, and no one came out of the hall. Hearing the whispering voices of the maidservants at the door, Concubine Hui seemed to have rested.

Bai Yingluo tightly clenched her hands, letting her nails dig into her palms, she still persisted.

"Yo, so it's Mrs. Du?"

A cold voice sounded from behind, and Bai Yingluo turned her head to look, and saw the Crown Princess and Dou Xiuqiao who was helping her by her side.

"The concubine has met the crown princess, the crown princess is a thousand years old..."

Bai Yingluo kowtowed and said.

The princess is already five months pregnant, and her lower abdomen is slightly protruding, making her look plump. The cold and severe appearance before is now a little softer.

Glancing at Bai Yingluo, the princess continued to move forward and entered the main hall. Behind her, Dou Xiuqiao leaned down and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Bai Yingluo, sometimes there must be something in life, and there must be something in life. Never force it, this is what you deserve.”

The angry words were almost unbearable, but seeing Song Feiran's figure appearing from the entrance of the hall from the corner of her eyes, Bai Yingluo took a deep breath and forcibly endured it.

Bai Yingluo remembered that Master Mo Zhe once said that playing chess is like fighting, take one step and see three steps, and take a long-term view. A temporary defeat does not mean that the whole game is lost.

"Mrs. Du, the time has come, you can get up now."

Still the maid from just now, Bai Yingluo let out a sigh of relief, supported the pillar beside her, and stood up slowly.

In the main hall, Concubine Hui was having tea with the Crown Princess, Bai Yingluo knelt down and kowtowed to Concubine Hui, and she got up and left Jingren Palace after she spoke.

Outside the gate, Song Feiran and Dou Xiuqiao were standing in front of the flower garden talking.

"Mrs. Du, the princess just remembered that the white flowers are unknown, but today she was reckless. If I choose a few other flowers now, I will make up for it to you."

There was a hint of guilt on his face, but Song Feiran's eyes were full of smiles, and even Dou Xiuqiao, who was beside him, looked at her like a demonstration.

As far as Dou Xiuqiao is concerned, even if the sixth princess is the mother of Da'an, she is beyond her reach now.

Bai Yingluo was crying in her heart, unable to advance or retreat for a while, before she could think of a way to deal with it, two servants in the palace hurried over from a distance, "My servants have seen the Seventh Princess, Madam Dou, and Madam Du."

"What's the matter?"

Seeing that the person who came was Lin Zhimei's maid, Song Feiran felt something was wrong.

"Knowing that Mrs. Du is entering the palace today, the crown prince's side concubine has been waiting to talk to her. When she heard that the banquet was over, the side concubine ordered her servants to come and pick up Mrs. Du."

Zhilan replied respectfully.

Song Feiran had never been used to Lin Zhimei's delicate appearance, but everyone in the palace knew that Lin Zhimei was the crown prince's favorite candidate for the crown princess, but now she is only the crown prince's side concubine, and she is also the first in the East Palace. What's more, the prince may not look at Bai Yingluo differently because of the sixth princess.

Song Feiran knew that he could not afford to offend Lin Zhimei, let alone the prince.

Waved his hands angrily, Song Feiran looked at Bai Yingluo with a smile: "If that's the case, let's enjoy the flowers with Mrs. Du another day."

"The concubine retire."

After bowing down and saluting, Bai Yingluo turned around and followed Zhilan towards the East Palace.

What happened in Jingren Palace was known to the Six Palaces before the banquet was over. It was impossible for the empress to show up for Bai Yingluo, and Lin Zhimei was incapable of confronting Concubine Hui, so she froze for a while until the banquet was over. Only then did Lin Zhimei hastily send someone over.

Entering the East Side Hall, Bai Yingluo could only feel heat in her eyes when she saw Mrs. Shangbei Ningbo and Mrs. Xue's concerned eyes.

"It must be because I have been hungry for too long and then drank wine in a hurry."

Said softly, Lin Zhimei came out from the inner hall, took Bai Yingluo's hand and sat down at the table.

"Eat quickly, you will feel better if you have a full stomach..."

Lin Zhimei affectionately picked up the chopsticks and handed them to Bai Yingluo.

There was a bit of maternal softness in her body, and Lin Zhimei's soft voice made Bai Yingluo feel very comfortable, and when she looked at the steaming bowl of porridge in front of her, she suddenly felt extremely sweet.

While Bai Yingluo was eating, Mrs. Bei Ningbo and Mrs. Xue were talking in low voices.

Everyone knew what happened in Jingren Palace. Some people secretly felt wronged for Bai Yingluo, and naturally some people thought that she should be prepared for bad luck because she was blessed. There were different opinions.

"Has Qin Tianjian set an auspicious date?"

Mrs. Xue asked Mrs. Beining uncle.

Although the decree has not yet been made, everyone in the palace already knows what has been decided, and Mrs. Bei Ningbo naturally learned about it from Lin Zhimei.

"The auspicious day is on the eighth day of November, and the son-in-law is Xinke's Tanhualang."

Madame Beiningbo replied.

Nodding her head, Mrs. Xue sighed softly, perhaps thinking that after the Seventh Princess got married, she might not be able to take care of Bai Yingluo, and today's ordinary things would probably not happen again, but Bai Yingluo was stunned one time.

She vaguely remembered that Du Xuan had told her that the No. [-] and Tanhua had both been engaged.

Why did Tanhualang become a son-in-law in the blink of an eye?
Immediately, Bai Yingluo laughed at herself: Who wants Princess Shangqi, and what does it have to do with me?I just hope that she can live a sweet little life and save herself troubles in the future.

Gathering back to her senses, looking at the alluring sweet-scented osmanthus fish on the plate in front of her, Bai Yingluo felt a gag in her throat, and the food she ate just now gushed out disgustingly.

Throwing the bowl down on the table, Bai Yingluo got up and ran into the dressing room.

Hearing Bai Yingluo's light vomit, Mrs. Xue and Mrs. Beiningbo looked at each other in blank dismay.

"Go to the imperial hospital and announce the Qin imperial physician."

Looking at the sweet-scented osmanthus fish on the table without moving a chopstick, Lin Zhimei turned her head and ordered Zhi Landao.

After a cup of tea, Imperial Physician Qin entered the Eastern Palace with a medicine box on his back.

In Jingren Palace, Concubine Hui and Concubine Crown Princess had a happy chat. In the first place, Dou Xiuqiao shared with Song Feiran the ugliness of Bai Yingluo in the past. Hearing the happy part, Song Feiran laughed proudly.

After a while, a servant girl outside the palace came to the Crown Princess and whispered a few words.

Seeing the concubine's complexion changed slightly, Concubine Hui noticed it, and looked at the concubine with concern.

The Crown Princess glanced at Song Feiran and Dou Xiuqiao who were chatting happily, and said softly: "The imperial physician has diagnosed that Madam Lin is pregnant."
