The Pearl of the Lady

Chapter 13 Jealousy and Murder

When Wang said that His Majesty is coming, her tone was sweet and melancholy. Of course, this was the first time she met His Majesty, but she had been a queen for so many years, even if she accidentally showed such emotions in front of her girlfriends, she immediately returned. Put it away.

Princess Hua'an pretended not to know, as if she didn't feel anything, she smiled and said: "I don't care, I just follow me anyway, why do you always remember my embarrassing things, but you don't have to envy me, wait for your stomach This one must be smart after being born, who let our smart little Ah Fu touch him."

Wang's voice said softly: "Then dare to be kind, and we are lucky to be blessed by Ah Fu."

The two whispered softly, and Princess Hua'an told the queen, "Now we are not young girls, and you are getting heavy, so don't worry too much. Let my brother worry about things."

Mrs. Wang patted her hand: "I know, don't worry, but there is nothing wrong with this palace. His Majesty is tired enough with the affairs of the previous court, how can he bother him with the affairs of the harem."

Princess Hua'an glared at her, "Just think about him, feel sorry for yourself, when I entered the palace last time, the time when I was pregnant with Ah Fu, that He Jieyu didn't look like a peaceful person."

Mrs. Wang knew that Hua An felt sorry for her, but Hua An had never seen any fight between wives and concubines in all these years. What was He Jieyu? She smiled and said: "He Jieyu is young and has a frivolous temper. It's inevitable. What do I care about with her?"

"That's right, Brother Huang's heart is on your side, it's useless for any of them to jump around," Princess Hua'an also said relaxedly.

"Stop telling me all the time, how about you, are you taking care of little Ah Fulei?" Wang asked with concern.

"I'm the same as before. Gu Yun made me lie on the bed every day, and I was so worried that I wouldn't be able to watch it." Princess Hua'an complained.

"You, Gu Guogong loves you, and you still have to complain like this. Recently, Gao Ligong has served the best old ginseng and bird's nest. Take them with you when you leave, to replenish your vitality."

"Don't make it up, look at my waist." Princess Hua'an waved her hand and said.

"Afu is easier to carry than the previous three. She doesn't like to cry. She only hums when she is hungry or thirsty, but this child seems to be lazy and always sleeps. I remember Weixuan and the others when they were young. She doesn't feel as much as she does." Princess Hua'an frowned and said.

"Well, I think Ah Fu is quite clever, maybe it's because the child feels too much, so don't worry too much, but let the imperial doctor take a look." Wang comforted.

"I've seen it. I ask for pulse twice a day. The imperial doctor said it's all right. Maybe I'm overthinking it." Princess Hua'an said.

"Let's go, it's almost time to go back, let's go through the imperial garden and see how the little white poplar I planted back then is doing," Princess Hua'an said after strolling around for a while.

"What's more, others plant flowers, you plant trees." The queen joked with a smile. "My servant has seen some young masters. The queen and His Royal Highness Princess Hua'an are in front. Please wait a moment before moving forward." Zhu Yun said in a gentle and respectful voice.

In front of Zhuyun was none other than He Jieyu, Liu Fangyi and concubine Zheng with their maids.

After hearing Zhu Yun's words, He Jieyu squeezed the handkerchief tightly and said, "This...then we will wait."

Liu Fangyi smiled and said: "I haven't paid a visit to the empress for a long time, and Princess Hua An hasn't come to the palace for a while, so I really should pay a visit."

He Jieyu was a little hesitant. If she had been in the past, she would have come forward confidently, but recently she has not been favored by His Majesty, and under Bi Shao's persuasion, she has restrained a lot. She originally planned to endure her anger and avoid it. But when Liu Fangyi said this, she couldn't decide to pay attention again.

Concubine Zheng was also young, she looked at Sister Liu who was smiling softly, and she was also a little curious about Princess Hua'an, so she echoed, "I also think we should pay a visit, otherwise it will appear that we are impolite."

He Jieyu looked around, there was nothing she could do, Bi Shao was playing with the second prince today, so she didn't come out with her, she gritted her teeth and said to Zhu Yun: "The three of us want to meet the empress, let the maid lead the way. "

Zhu Yun didn't move away, and still persuaded with a smile: "The three masters miss the empress, why don't you go to Fengyi Palace to see her another day, but it's inconvenient to be in the imperial garden today."

Liu Fangyi helped the step beside the bun, and said: "This maid seems to be preventing us from meeting the empress, why? Could it be that our status is too low to be in the eyes of the empress, the empress is respectful to the world, isn't it? It will be like this, I'm afraid that you servants will tarnish the empress's reputation."

Zhu Yun was a first-class female official next to the queen, and she could bear to be scolded by Liu Fangyi almost pointing her nose like this, she kept her face and refused to let her go.

Liu Fangyi just raised her eyebrows, but He Jieyu became angry. She secretly felt that her status was low, so the people in the palace looked down on her. The so-called extreme inferiority became arrogance. What Liu Fangyi said made her Feeling that the queen's maid looked down on her, she frowned and stepped forward impatiently.

After all, she is the biological mother of the second prince, she is the fourth grade Jieyu, Zhu Yun dare not stop her forcefully, Liu Fangyi and Zheng Jieyu follow behind her.

After walking not far, I saw the queen and Princess Hua'an pointing to a poplar tree and saying something. The location of the poplar tree was strange, and it was surrounded by itself. Not to mention the location, the poplar tree itself is in the imperial garden. Surprisingly, the two had smiles on their brows and eyes, and it was obviously a relaxed and pleasant topic.

They heard Princess Hua'an laughing and saying that when they were young, the three of them stagnated, and the maid who followed behind also stopped, and Zhu Yun quickly walked a few steps forward to report.

Liu Fangyi said in a low voice: "It's really enviable, childhood sweetheart, no guess, the Empress has always been the first in His Majesty's heart for so many years, the poplar tree may have been planted by the two of them when they were young..."

Concubine Zheng nodded ignorantly: "It's like the story in the storybook."

He Jieyu's face turned pale. She was in love with His Majesty wholeheartedly. She came from a small family and had no family background, but her status was higher than many high-ranking women. These women even came to curry favor with her. She always claimed to be His Majesty's true love. Before His Majesty When ignoring her, she told herself that His Majesty was just angry for a while, and as expected, His Majesty would go back to see her after a while, and she was very proud, but today she seemed to be awakened by a slap in the face suddenly, thinking about which time she was punished not because of the Queen .She has selectively ignored that it doesn't matter what the reason is, as long as the queen makes a mistake, she will deal with it. Now she thinks that the queen is targeting her.
