Rebirth after waste

Chapter 85

You give me a baby, okay?
Gu Yunxian didn't expect him to say that suddenly, and was stunned for a moment.

The words of the imperial physician many years ago echoed in my ears again: "My lady is weak and cold, I'm afraid... it is difficult to conceive...."

At that time, because of this sentence, she shed tears many times in a place where no one was around.

Moving from the Eastern Palace to the Imperial Palace, her status is even more noble, but she is getting farther and farther away from her husband.During the countless nights spent alone in her boudoir, she would also imagine that if she could have a child, wouldn't the days be much easier to pass?
But it didn't take long for this idea to be shattered by the ruthless reality.

Yu Shuyi has her daughter, Zhuang Jieyu and Rou Wanyi also have their own sons, and now they even have Ming Chongyi.As time passed, the women in each palace had their own children one after another and became mothers.

She would be envious occasionally, but she clearly knew in her heart that she would never be included in it.

I didn't have this blessing before, but now, I don't even have this idea.

A woman has a weakness when she has a child, and her fate is out of her control ever since.Especially in this palace full of conspiracies, where there are murder traps everywhere, she doesn't want to have any worries.

Because of this, she even felt that it was better not to have children.

She knew that if Liu Shanggong heard this, he would definitely reprimand her severely.Although children are the weak point, they are also the biggest defense.If the situation continues like this, sooner or later, childlessness will become her big problem.

But so what?The future is still early, let's talk about it then.Now she doesn't want to think about it at all.

Lowering her head, she put on a shy expression, "Why did Your Majesty suddenly mention this... This kind of thing, the concubine can't decide..."

He also seemed to realize that his question was a bit ridiculous, and he sighed, "I'm so confused that I asked a stupid question." He kissed her forehead and muttered to himself, "However, I'm really a little strange when I mention it like this." Ordinarily it’s been so long, Yunniang, why haven’t you moved at all?”

She suppressed the panic in her heart, and said as calmly as possible: "Perhaps, it's because the concubines have no blessings." He glanced at him, "Is it because the concubines don't have children, and your Majesty doesn't like them anymore?"

"What nonsense!" He laughed, "Why don't you have children? We will definitely have children." After a pause, "Even if you don't have children, you are still you, my favorite Yunniang."

She knew that what he said was just talking, because he didn't know at the moment that she was suffering from the fatal cold syndrome.If he really knew, his attitude would not be so relaxed.

Thinking of this, she smiled slightly and said no more.

But the emperor suddenly remembered something, frowned and said: "I see that Yueniang still has a lot of dissatisfaction with you, and I will find ways to restrain her later, so that she will not find you unlucky. But now that she is in such a situation, I also It's hard to say anything serious, I'm afraid this restraint has limited effect. If she still can't help but offend you, you... "

"The concubine understands that Yueniang is pregnant now, and the concubine will let her go." She smiled slightly, her tone very magnanimous.

These words are indeed from the heart.

Her resentment and displeasure today were all feigned, in order to win the emperor's sympathy and guilt.In fact, she didn't take it that seriously.It is true that Jiang Yuechang will become more difficult to deal with when she has a child, but things have happened, and she can only let things develop.She won't bother her any more.

There are previous examples, and now everyone's eyes are on her.If anything goes wrong with Jiang Yuechang's child, everyone will think of her immediately.

She wouldn't be so stupid as to fall twice in the same place.

He shook his head when he heard the words, "I didn't ask you to give in to her. With Yueniang's character, if you keep giving in to her, you will be bullied enough by her. What I mean is that if she does too much, You told me because the emperor's descendant was not easy to deal with. I will clean up the mess."

She stood there in a daze, and then stammered for a long time: "Tell... tell you?"

"Yes." He smiled and nodded her nose, "Tell me, I stand up for the bullied little Yunniang."

His expression was too gentle when he said this, and his eyes were full of love.He just looked at her like that, as if she was his little daughter who needed to be cared for carefully.

She was flustered for a while, and couldn't find her reason for a long time.However, his eyes were still staring at her, and she was so stunned that she almost said indiscriminately: "I'm not a child, so I don't need your protection..."

"Aren't you a child?" He seemed to have heard something very novel, and his eyes narrowed with a smile, "Let me do the math. You are 21 years old now, five years younger than me, isn't it? A child..."

"Is it unusual to be five years younger?" She became annoyed, "Isn't everyone getting a wife five years younger!"

Indeed, according to the marriage customs of the Jin Dynasty, women can leave the court at the age of 15, and men can marry at the age of 20, so the most common age difference between husband and wife is five years.

"It's not unusual, but I just think so." He smiled, "I still remember that when I worshiped heaven and earth with you back then, you were not even tall enough to reach my shoulders. Looking at you, I felt It's like bringing a little sister in, and the feeling in my heart is so complicated."

He spoke more and more vigorously, Gu Yunxian didn't expect him to think this way before, he felt ashamed and embarrassed, and didn't know how to fight back.

While he was annoyed, his tone suddenly softened, with a trace of tenderness, "Who would have thought that after reciting poems and fans, I found out that this little sister was born so beautiful. Her face with colorful makeup is more beautiful than the newly developed cinnabar." Still dazzle..."

His voice became lower and lower, and when he finished the last sentence, his lips were already on hers.

Gu Yunxian was dazed by the kiss, and in the midst of his busy schedule, he still remembered his original question, "Is it really... really appropriate for Your Majesty not to accompany Yueniang today?"

He was dissatisfied with her distraction, and took a bite of her lips in retaliation, "I'll go tomorrow...you should concentrate. You said you want to have a baby, so what if you don't work hard?"

The incense in the hall wafts around, and the autumn-scented green gauze hangs down layer by layer, creating a charming dream.

Although Gu Yunxian and Dingmei had reached an agreement in private, they did not want others to know about their relationship, so when they met, they always chose a quiet place.

In the quiet imperial garden in the middle of the night, Gu Yunxian was wrapped in a thick cloak, walking and talking with Dingmei.

"It's getting colder and colder today, and it will snow in a few days, so we have to meet in another place." Gu Yunxian smiled, "It's freezing cold, I don't want to come out to blow the cold wind."

After saying this, he looked at Dingmei in confusion, "A Ling, you obviously wear less clothes than Bengong, yet why do you look more comfortable than Bengong?"

Dingmei smiled and said: "My lady is from the south, so she is naturally afraid of the cold. The concubine's hometown is Kangcheng, north of Yudu, and it snows half of the time every year. I grew up there, and I have long been used to it." The cold weather. Yudu is already warm and pleasant for a concubine."

"So that's how it is." Gu Yunxian said, "It seems that your hometown, Ah Ling, is not suitable for this Palace. If you go somewhere, you may suffer from the cold after staying for a few days."

"How could the empress go to my concubine's hometown?" Dingmei suddenly showed a trace of sadness when she said this, "Even the concubine herself, there is no chance to go back in this life."

Gu Yunxian was silent.

Women like them, who are thousands of miles away from home, marry a husband who is a ninety-five-year-old emperor, and live in a continuous three thousand palaces, but they live a life of fear.Worrying all day long, I will naturally miss my hometown more than others.

The city full of snow in Dingmei's heart, and the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River in her dreams are all their most precious memories, carrying the best time of their lives.

But after all, there is no going back.

Thinking of this, although Gu Yunxian has always disliked Dingmeiren, he couldn't help but feel a sense of sympathy.

After being relatively silent for a while, Ding Meiren seemed not used to such an atmosphere, and took the lead to break the deadlock, "Your Majesty summoned my concubine to come out today, but what plan do you have?"

Her tone was perplexed, and there was a trace of impatience, as if she was a little impatient to wait.

Hearing her tone, Gu Yunxian couldn't help but smile slightly.

She knew that Dingmei was puzzled.I thought she would do something when she returned to the palace, but as soon as she got off the carriage, she met Ming Chongyi who was pregnant, and all the eyes of the palace were fixed on Xianchi Hall.For the next few days, Gu Yunxian stayed quietly in the Hanzhang Hall, without any intention of making a move.

What is she waiting for?
"Well, I have a plan. I just don't know what you think, Ah Ling." Gu Yunxian said with a smile.

"What?" Dingmei frowned, "What is this concubine thinking?"

"Ming Chongyi is pregnant, won't this matter affect your decision?" Gu Yunxian smiled, "If you go back on your word, there is still time."

Dingmei was taken aback.

Recently, I was really upset because of Ming Chongyi's pregnancy.The enmity between Gu Yunxian and Ming Chongyi is known to everyone in the palace. Now that Ming Chongyi is pregnant, Gu Yunxian's position is not so stable, maybe one day he will be replaced.Is it really a wise choice for me to run and cling to her at this moment?
However, these thoughts are just thinking in her heart, she knows that it is unrealistic to talk about regretting now.

What I didn't intend to tell anyone, was brought up lightly by Gu Yunxian at this moment.

She is so clear about her thoughts?
She asked herself that she wasn't the one who kept her emotions on the surface, but she was still noticed by Gu Yunxian.Her current ability to read people's hearts is really amazing!
Thinking about that night in Xianchi Palace, facing the pregnant Ming Chongyi, His Majesty also chose to favor her.

With an extraordinary temperament and divine favor, her strength cannot be underestimated.

It was worth her gamble.

Thinking of this, she smiled slightly, "Since the concubine made her decision at the beginning, she still says the same thing now. The concubine is willing to do the hard work for the empress, and will never regret it."

Seeing this, Gu Yunxian knew that his words just now had dispelled the last trace of uncertainty in her heart, so she smiled in satisfaction, "That's good. Since Ah Ling doesn't change your mind, then we can talk about tonight's business gone."
