Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 572 Don't Change Your Mind

The last trace of hesitation in Yue Jing'an's heart disappeared with her expression, and she frowned, "Zijin, you are..."

Seeing her eyes flickering, Xia Zijin had obviously guessed something, Xiao couldn't hide it, and turned to look at the maid standing beside her.Seeing her cautious look, Yue Jing'an grasped the palm of her sleeve tightly, squeezed the handkerchief, took a deep breath, and turned to look at the maid.

The maid immediately retreated sensibly, and closed the door by the way. Only then did Yue Jing'an turn to look at Xia Zijin, and pulled her to sit on a chair beside her.However, the maid forgot to take the yokan down when she went out, so that as soon as Xia Zijin took off the veil, the smell came directly into her nostrils, making her sick.

Therefore, she leaned on the corner of the table and retched again.Yue Jing'an's expression kept flickering, and finally, she sighed faintly, "Zijin, aren't you pregnant?"

Xia Zijin's behavior, she guessed so, is really normal.Even if Xia Zijin might have some doubts in her heart, but without conclusive evidence, if she pressed the question harder, she would not continue to think deeply.

Yue Jing'an looked at her with burning eyes. Xia Zijin wanted to hide this matter from her wholeheartedly. Now that she saw the clue, she felt embarrassed, her cheeks were slightly red, but she felt that there was something faintly wrong.But before she could think about it, a disgusting feeling surged up.

Seeing her princess suffering so much, Xin'er's eyes were red, she lifted her skirt directly, blessed Yue Jing's body, and said eagerly: "Ma'am, the princess is weak, if she can't smell the smell of sheep, please beg me Let the slaves take out the yokan."

Yue Jing'an stared straight at Xia Zijin, seeing Xin'er's anxious look, she nodded, "That's how it is, just take it out."

After waiting for the door to close with a "bang", and only the two of them were left in the room, Yue Jing'an's cold eyes fell on Xia Zijin, seeing her pale face with an extremely weak expression. Although she looked distressed, when she thought that she was pregnant now, and judging by the meaning, she seemed to be giving birth to the fetus in her womb, she lowered her face again, "Zijin, what's going on?"

Seeing that she couldn't hide it anymore, Xia Zijin could only sigh, and confessed truthfully, "Yes, indeed, as my concubine sees, this princess already has Sheng Qing's flesh and blood in her womb."

"You're confused!" Yue Jing'an was shocked when she got an affirmative answer from her mouth. She pressed her palm on the table and stood up suddenly, looking at her with serious eyes, lowered her voice, and gritted her teeth, "You Do you know, what are you doing now?"

Seeing that Xia Zijin was silent, with a resolute expression, obviously determined to keep this child, Yue Jing'an couldn't help but have a headache, "Do you know how many troubles will happen if this child stays?"

"This princess knows that she is only a concubine mother. If this princess can't even protect her own child, what's the point of fighting for the throne?" Xia Zijin naturally understood the meaning of her words. After all, she had thought about it at the beginning. To give up this child.

It was really not the right time for him to come.Thinking of Xia Shengqing's expectant eyes, Xia Zijin settled down, and looked at Yue Jing'an calmly but resolutely.Seeing her like this, Yue Jing'an could only swallow her words to persuade her to abort the child.

In the end, Yue Jing'an could only utter a few helpless words, "Since you have already made up your mind, I won't persuade you any more, it's just that you need to think more about it."

After so many years of acquaintance, Yue Jing'an has already figured out Xia Zijin's temperament, and there is absolutely no possibility of changing the decision.Therefore, even if she tried to persuade her, it would be a waste of effort. On the contrary, the two of them might be unhappy. In this case, it is better to accept this thought. As for what may happen in the future, let's take one step at a time.

Yue Jing'an's brows were filled with worry, it was obvious that she hadn't really put this matter down.Xia Zijin hesitated for a moment, but still did not tell Yue Jing'an about the regent's edict left by Ming Shengdi.

This matter is of great importance, and it is her last trump card, and the fewer people she meets, the better.After Xia Zijin made up her mind, she laughed, "Mother and concubine don't have to worry, this princess understands."

Seeing this, Yue Jing'an could only shut up and stop trying to persuade her.The two talked for a while with a smile, and did not mention the previous topic in a very tacit understanding. After a while, Xia Zijin got up to say goodbye. Sitting on a chair, close your eyes and meditate.

After all, she is so old that her spirit is not as good as before.Now that Xia Zijin had already made up her mind, she should stop worrying about it, and with Xia Zijin's scheming, she wouldn't let herself fall to the point where she couldn't gain a foothold.After Xia Zijin came out of Yue Jing'an's palace, strong anger flashed in her dark eyes, she quickened her pace and left the palace quickly.

After Xia Shengqing learned that Yue Jing'an had called Xia Zijin into the palace, she had a suspicious look on her face. Just as she was about to go look for her, she saw Xia Zijin, covered in frost, directly opened the door and plunged into the palace. on the bed.

Xia Shengqing hurried forward, helped her to sit up, saw the grievance on her face, and her heart sank slightly, "Is my concubine mad at you again?"

Seeing that Xia Zijin didn't say a word, he immediately stood up, and was about to go into the palace to find Yue Jing'an to ask for clarification.Xia Zijin was taken aback, and quickly grabbed his sleeve, "Sheng Qing, you are overthinking, but the concubine found out that I was pregnant, so..."

Xia Zijin didn't say what happened next, but Xia Shengqing understood.Yue Jing'an was always rational, and she was afraid that Xia Zijin would kill the child.Thinking of this, Xia Shengqing's face darkened, and he managed to persuade Xia Zijin to give up the idea, but don't be moved by Yue Jing'an.

Thinking of this, his eyelids twitched, and he sneaked a look at Xia Zijin, seeing that she didn't seem to be moving, he breathed a sigh of relief.Xia Zijin saw that his expression was cloudy and turned sunny, and sighed, "Sheng Qing, I just feel a little uncomfortable in my heart. If this child knows that his mother and grandma didn't want him to be born, how sad it would be."

Seeing her soft tone, Xia Shengqing was slightly taken aback, then shaved her nose and rubbed her hair with her palm, "Don't worry, he won't know."

Here Xia Shengqing coaxed her softly, but Yingzhou was fighting fiercely. Xia Tianqin attacked the city fiercely, but it was a pity that Rong Yu led people to defend it from dawn to dusk. Do break open the city gate.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Xia Qin couldn't help but clenched his fingers, feeling resentful in his heart, so he could only withdraw his troops with gold, and led the army back ten miles to station.Seeing this, the soldiers guarding the city breathed a sigh of relief, and their nerves, which had been strained all day, relaxed a little.

Rong Yu went back to rest in the camp, leaving a group of soldiers to watch the night outside, lest Xia Tian would lead troops to attack at night.

And in the magistrate's office, a figure suddenly sneaked out, walked out of the city along the repaired secret passage, and walked all the way to the place where Xia Qin was stationed.All this happened silently, so no one in the city noticed it.

Xia Qin waited in the tent for a long time, when the guard came to report, he immediately showed joy.As the visitor opened the curtain and walked in, he hurriedly stood up and greeted him, "You're here."

"This subordinate has met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." The visitor was dressed in black night clothes, looked at Xia Tianqin, and saluted very respectfully.

"You and I, you don't have to be so polite, come, come and sit, how is the arrangement in the city?" Xia Qin smiled rarely, beckoned him to sit beside him, and asked about the situation in the city.

"It's all been arranged, His Royal Highness can send troops tonight." The visitor sat cross-legged on the couch, "Just remember, Your Highness, don't hurt the people in the city."

"This crown prince naturally knows about this." Xia Qin didn't look embarrassed, nodded, indicating that he knew, "In that case, go back quickly, don't arouse suspicion. Be more careful in your actions."

The visitor nodded, and took out a military camp deployment map from his sleeve and handed it to him.Xia Tian took a closer look, the light in his eyes lit up, and the man got up to leave.

Rong Yu had just rested when he heard the sound of hammers and drums in front of him. He shuddered and got up from under the blanket. Before he could put on his shoes, he ran out of the tent, grabbed his coat and put it on himself.

When he got to the city wall and stood still, he couldn't help frowning. He thought Xia Qin would take advantage of the night to make a surprise attack, but he didn't expect that he would lead the army to attack the city again in the middle of the night. Seeing the distressed look of the Wei soldiers, Rong Yu's eyes fell on Xia Qin with doubts. With the appearance of a Wei soldier, if he wanted to successfully attack the city, it would be tantamount to a fool's dream.

According to common sense, Xia Qin should let them rest to prepare for the attack tomorrow, but Xia Qin made such a strange move.Standing under the city wall, Xia Qin looked at Rong Yu's figure and sneered.

Just as Rong Yu was thinking about Xia Qin's intentions for this move, he saw a soldier running over in a panic with an anxious expression on his face. Rong Yu's heart sank inexplicably, his heart speeded up incessantly, and a little uneasiness appeared faintly.

He always felt as if something bad had happened, and in the next second, his uneasiness was confirmed, "My lord, the granary, the granary is on fire!"

These words were like a bolt from the blue, hitting him directly in the bottom of his heart, causing him to sway, and the two generals standing beside him hurriedly reached out to support him, with equally ugly expressions, "My lord, what should I do?"

Seeing the two of them asking questions, Rong Yu was equally sad, and turned to look at the soldier, "Why is it so easy to catch fire, you two are guarding here, this son, go to the granary to have a look."

Rong Yu turned his head and ordered the two generals, and before they could respond, he hurriedly followed the soldier to the granary.As he approached, he could smell a strong smell of blood and smoke from the fire.He grasped the saber at his waist tightly, and before the soldiers in front continued to move forward, the sharp point of the sword rested on his neck.

"Say, how did you get in here?" Rong Yu snarled and looked at him with murderous intent.
