The wicked girl

Chapter 343 Going to this Bureau Together ([-])

It has been a long time since Ye Kui saw Concubine Pei last time.

At that time, she was still a girl from the Ye family who had not left the court, but now she entered the palace as the Pei family.So this time, Concubine Pei looked at her very differently from the past.Ye Kui looked calm and let her watch.

Pei Changge is still alive, Concubine Pei probably doesn't know yet.

This alone is enough to make Concubine Pei feel unhappy when she looks at Ye Kui.

She has always treated her youngest brother as a son.In her eyes, there is no difference between Pei Changge and the Thirteenth Prince.No matter who had the accident, it was as if a piece of flesh had been cut from her heart, making her so painful that she couldn't breathe.

Silently, after a while, she shifted her gaze to Ye Kui's swollen belly, and said, "How many months?"

Ye Kui lowered her eyes and said respectfully, "It's been six months."

Concubine Pei nodded expressionlessly, and said: "According to the days, it is almost the same." After she finished speaking, she suddenly told Ye Kui, "In that case, you should take good care of it in the mansion, and you don't need to take care of it on weekdays." Thinking too much. Xiaojiu... If Xiaojiu knows under the spring, she must be looking forward to the safety of your mother and child."

Hearing this, Ye Kui raised her eyes and said softly: "Your Majesty, there is a saying that I don't know if I should say it or not."

"What?" Concubine Pei frowned and asked doubtfully.

Ye Kui looked at her with clear eyes, and said seriously, "Master Hou is sick."

"What?" Concubine Pei was taken aback and blurted out in surprise.But before the words landed, she immediately pursed her lips tightly and her eyes dimmed.Marquis Yong'an was ill, but no one informed her, and the news came from Ye Kui, how could she not be surprised?She has been struggling in this deep palace for so many years, no matter how stupid she is, she should have realized that something is wrong at this moment.If Ye Kui hadn't been proclaimed into the palace today because of Princess Liuzhu, would it be impossible for her to know about her father's illness?

Furthermore, since no one from Pei's family specially came to inform her, it meant that the matter was difficult to handle, and without explaining the reason, everyone had already decided to hide it from her.

But this time, Ye Kui just said it in front of people.

Does it mean that she has accidentally left out something crucial?
In just a few words, Concubine Pei's heart has turned a thousand times.

And Ye Kui is even more careful step by step, every time he says a word, he has to think over and over again in his heart before he dares to say it.But on the surface, none of them can show any conspicuous actions.It was not easy for her to wait for such an opportunity, and she should have just told Concubine Pei what they had discussed many times.But after talking with Princess Liuzhu just now, Ye Kui is sure that it is impossible for her to talk to Concubine Pei alone without people.

It is precisely because of Concubine Pei's status and power that she can almost walk sideways in the harem except for the queen, so they have to be more cautious.After all, as long as you make a wrong step, you will be lost forever.

So she simply told the whole story about Yong'an Hou's illness at this time.

The matter of Marquis Yong'an's illness has been concealed for quite a while, if it continues to be concealed, it may be counterproductive.At the beginning, they thought that Emperor Chengzhen might attack the Pei family immediately, so they deliberately concealed it.However, what happened later was almost completely opposite to what they had guessed at the beginning.The death of the Seventh Prince was always a huge blow to Ye Kui.

Once he died, many of the things she thought of at first, and the chess she was going to play, had to be reconsidered.It can almost be said that they have lost everything, and can only start all over again!

But misfortune comes with blessings, and the death of the Seventh Prince also gave them a chance to breathe.

Too many disasters have happened in Fengcheng recently.One after another, it makes people feel flustered when they think about it.Coincidentally, Princess Liuzhu's marriage is imminent, so for the time being, something will happen to the Pei family before Princess Liuzhu successfully marries Amobi.

As an emperor, Emperor Chengzhen must stabilize the people's hearts, so it is impossible for him to attack the Pei family at this juncture.Once he acted recklessly against the Pei family, those aristocratic families, officials, and clan relatives in Fengcheng who were already anxious would have different views on Emperor Chengzhen.

So Ye Kui is sure that at this time, Emperor Chengzhen will not care whether Marquis Yong'an is sick or healthy.

Otherwise, Emperor Chengzhen would not have allowed her to enter the palace to meet Princess Liuzhu.

In the heart of Emperor Chengzhen at this moment, the Pei family has nothing to fear.

"When did father get sick? Why didn't you send someone to talk to me about such a thing?" Concubine Pei Gui came back to her senses, narrowed her eyes, and asked.

Ye Kui's eyes fell on Concubine Pei's slender white jade hands clasped tightly on the armchair, "There are a lot of things going on in the house these days, so I was so busy that I forgot to ask someone to deliver a letter to the empress."

This is wrong!

Concubine Pei's face turned cold immediately, but after a while, her hands tightly clasped on the armchair slowly loosened.

For Ye Kui, there is a problem.

Since the mansion is busy and chaotic, it is even more important for someone to tell her.After all, she is the empress in the palace, and if there is something wrong, she can help to some extent.A married daughter is the water that is thrown out, but in a family like theirs, there is no such thing at all.Who doesn't know that the reason for marrying a daughter to a noble family is simply to hope that the married daughter can also bring some help to her mother's family.

If not, wouldn't those people who got married because of the marriage between the two families have to cry to death?
The natal family has to support the married daughter, and the married daughter naturally has to earn face for the natal family.

She is an ever-favored noble lady in the palace, and a celebrity who has been in front of Emperor Chengzhen for several years.When something happened to Pei's family, how could he forget to notify her just because of the word "busy"?And even though Ye Kui only said such a short sentence, she already knew about her father Yong'an Hou's illness, probably even the emperor didn't know about it.

This is even more impossible to justify the word "busy".

Concubine Pei frowned slightly, and said to Ye Kui: "I will find a way to go back to see my father someday."

When Ye Kui heard this, she knew that Concubine Pei understood what she meant, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, bowed her head respectfully, and replied: "Yes."

Concubine Pei looked at her, but her brows did not relax for a long time.

She guessed right, those words just now were actually just to let her go out of the palace.But how can a concubine be able to leave the palace so easily?She has been in the palace for more than ten years, the imperial city is not far from Badeng Lane where Pei's house is located, but she has never been back even once...

This time, what is the matter that can only be said after she has returned to Pei's house?

Concubine Pei's heart was in a mess, and a strong uneasiness suddenly surged in her heart.This strange emotion came quickly and uneasy, and immediately poured from the bottom of her heart to all her limbs, making her even her fingers tremble.

But this time, she went back to Pei's house to visit a doctor.

Emperor Chengzhen has been in love with her for more than ten years, no matter what, he will agree.Unfortunately, this time when she went back, it was not considered to be visiting relatives, but to go back to her natal home as a daughter and elder sister to visit her elderly and sick father, and to offer a stick of incense for her younger brother who died young.

She couldn't help but quietly looked at Ye Kui with probing eyes, and sighed inwardly: Maybe, she should take the thirteenth prince with her.

The thirteenth prince is less than seven years old this year, but a child who grows up in the royal family, where there are real children.At this point, it's time for him to meet the Pei family.After all, it might not be long before Pei's family collapses.At that time, she will have no natal family that can support her, and the thirteenth prince will also have no capable natal family.In this way, the road ahead for him will only become more and more difficult.

Thinking about it, she sighed again.

Perhaps it was a coincidence that she only thought of the thirteenth prince here, and the thirteenth prince came to see her with small but square steps.

Ye Kui is the aunt of the Thirteenth Prince, not an outsider.Concubine Pei ordered someone to bring the thirteenth prince in, pointing to Ye Kui and explaining to him: "This is your little aunt."

Pei Changge ranked last in the Pei family, and the thirteenth prince usually just called him his little uncle, so when he met Ye Kui, he called him his little aunt.

"Greetings to my little aunt." The thirteenth prince greeted Ye Kui with a big gift after hearing Concubine Pei's words.

Although the seniority of the two is there, but he is the prince, Ye Kui is not happy to accept such a big gift from him.But she was unable to move because of her pregnancy, and she couldn't avoid it for a while, so she could only watch the thirteenth prince salute and stand up straight again.

"Your Highness has lost the wife of the evil minister." Ye Kui said with a sigh.

Concubine Pei waved her hands when she heard the words: "You are his serious aunt, you can bear it."

After all... Pei Changge is no longer alive... She has no choice but to continue to be cold-hearted to her sister-in-law, who she didn't like at first.But when she said such words, she also felt strange in her heart.She knows her son well, although 13 is young, he rarely makes mistakes in seeing things.He was even more rigid in doing things, but today he directly saluted Ye Kui.She looked at her son's serious little face, and she faintly understood.

The boy liked his little uncle.

Now, he also knows that his little uncle will never show up again, and he will never hold him to teach him archery, and will never play with him again.

I'm afraid it was because of this that when he saw his little aunt who had never met before, he subconsciously gave a big gift.This ceremony was not only for Ye Kui, but also for Pei Changge.

Concubine Pei Gui felt a little sore when she thought about it, she managed to hold back her tears.

"Mother and concubine, is it true that little uncle won't come back?"
