Forced to marry as a concubine: the prince is too presumptuous

Chapter 271 Suspicion
Gently opened Xiao Zhen'er's little quilt, Xiao Zhen'er had already opened her eyes, but the bottom of her buttocks was dry, without a little bit of wetness, this is very abnormal, how could a child not urinate It's wet.

Gently hugging Xiao Zhen'er, Ximo fell into deep thought. Once or twice, she really didn't want to do what he thought, but this has been going on for seven or eight days, since she lived in this cold palace. That's it.

I carried Xiao Zhen'er to the study next door, there were many medical books there, I looked it up, not only children, but also adults would often get up to urinate at night, these are very normal.

She didn't understand why she and Xiao Zhen'er didn't.

Did you eat something you shouldn't eat?

He ran to the kitchen and looked at the food in the food box Xiang Jinchen left behind. Everything looked delicious. It was food from the imperial dining room, so there shouldn't be any problem.

But why?

She wanted to see if the people in the imperial dining room added something to it so that she, a mother who was nursing a child, would eat it, but she didn't have any silver ornaments on her body.

I searched the cold palace over and over again, but found nothing. This place is really desolate. Since she lived here, no one has seen it.

All of a sudden, I wanted to go outside for a walk. Anyway, Xiang Jinchen also said that the area within a radius of five miles is safe. She knows how big the palace is. This is also possible, because this cold palace is In the most remote part of the palace.

Holding Xiao Zhen'er out of the yard, a small road meanders into the distance. I don't know which palace it leads to, but it is the only road that can lead her for a walk.

There is a small forest more than a dozen feet away, a dark green coniferous forest, a piece of green, but it reminds her of the maple leaf forest in the mountains, she likes maple leaves, the fiery red one, how beautiful, at that time, in the mountains When she met Yan Mo, she thought she would be happy for the rest of her life, but unexpectedly, Wan'er came back.

Wan'er, she is with Yan Mo now, she must be.

Imagining such a picture, her heart felt extraordinarily painful. It turned out that it was really difficult to let go of her true love.

In the quiet coniferous forest, the wind blows and the needles blow, making her heart jump, as if there is someone hidden in the forest, her eyes are also looking at the road in front of her without blinking.

In the distance, a figure flashed in a trance, and then disappeared without a trace. Ximo rubbed her eyes, no, she must be dazzled.

After walking for a while, I saw the sunshine outside the grove. There was a large area of ​​flowers there. When autumn came, begonias bloomed everywhere.

But among the flowers, a palace lady could be vaguely seen passing by.

Her heart was beating violently, Xiang Jinchen said that no one would pass by within a five-mile radius of where she lived, but now, as soon as she came out of the grove, she seemed to see people.

I don't know whether to go forward or go back. If someone finds her, will she be in danger?Will it fall into Xiang Jinyi's hands?

Looking down at the little Zhen'er in her arms, she can be silent, but she can't stop the little Zhen'er from making a sound, if she urinates and is hungry, the little guy will cry.

Thinking about it this way, she simply sat by the edge of the woods, fed little Zhen'er, and then urinated, making sure that the little guy was not hungry and would not pee anymore, so she carried Xiao Zhen'er and walked towards the begonia.

Her footsteps were very light, and there was really no sound other than a low, crackling sound when she stepped on the grass.

It's not intentional, but it won't startle people nearby.

Little Zhen'er was still lying quietly in her arms, looking at the magical world in her eyes, everything in the child's eyes was wonderful and novel.

"I heard that there is a crazy woman living in the forest."

"Well, I've also heard that a former old concubine has been insane for a long time, and she lives there without being afraid of ghosts."

"Yes, only crazy women dare to live in such a haunted place."

"I heard that Master Xiang is getting married."

"is it?"

"Yes."

"I don't know which family's daughter it is."

"That day, Master Xiang invited Lan Jingshan, it seems that Lan Jingshan left after talking for a long time."

"Is that Lan Ximo's father?"

"Hey, it's not Lan Ximo's father anymore. Lan Ximo has many fathers. At first, it was Lan Jingshan, then King Qingling, and now, I heard it was Zhuo Ligetu of Hawa. daughter."

"Yes, she is also the daughter of the Empress Dowager."

"That's the Empress Dowager's scandal. Keep your voice down. If the Empress Dowager and the Prime Minister know about it, be careful with your heads." A court lady who had never spoken a word advised in a low voice.

"What's the matter, we have never been taken care of here, just take care of these flowers and plants. Now, the queen mother has fallen in love with begonias, so we have to take good care of them."

The more she listened, the more chaotic she became. Ximo stood there quietly. She really didn't want to hear it, but now, she could hear it clearly. It turned out that everyone in the palace knew that she lived there. Yes, but I didn't know who she was, and I thought she was a crazy old concubine, but I never thought that she was not at all, she was Lan Ximo in the mouths of the maids who were placed there by Xiang Jinchen.

The court ladies all knew about it, so how could Xiang Jinyi not know that there was someone living with her?
impossible.

Ximo's heart suddenly panicked.

Xiang Jinchen, Xiang Jinyi.

That's really Xiang Jinchen, he knows everything about her living in the mountains, he also has that faint medicinal fragrance on his body, he is so gentle and considerate to himself, it is really him, she will never It was impossible to doubt him anymore, Xiang Jinchen really only had good things for her, not bad things.

But what is everything that you just heard?
She was confused.

"Let's go, don't talk about it, I picked flowers and sent them to the Queen Mother's palace to be inserted, so we can do other things earlier."

The maids gradually went away, but those voices seemed to be still in my ears, which made Ximo feel even more uneasy.

She always wakes up so late, thinking that it's because she was tired from going to bed late and getting up early in the villa before, but she has been making up for seven or eight days, is it possible to keep making up like this?
Something must have happened that she didn't know about. Can she still trust Xiang Jinchen?
God, she really can't doubt him anymore, every doubt is wrong.

Looking around, it was as if all the plants and trees were dead, as if it was the person who caused her to sleep until noon every day.

No, she is going back.

Terrified, he ran back along the same road, still feeling that there was a figure in the woods, but it disappeared in a flash.

Panting heavily, she ran back to the yard, seeing everything was weird, she stretched out her hand to caress her chest, Xiao Zhen'er also looked up at her, her big eyes seemed to be filled with doubts, she lowered her head and kissed that little face, "Zhen'er, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, mother is here, mother will protect you."

The villain smiled, smiling so happily, the little guy doesn't understand anything, he's only a few months old, what can he understand.

Pressing against her little face, she couldn't eat anything anymore, looking at the food that was still warm in the food box, she lost even the slightest appetite.

Sitting down to play the piano, Xiao Zhener was listening on the soft couch beside her, waving her little hands and feet obediently, she was so happy, but the sound of the piano that used to calm her could no longer soothe her heart up.

"Zheng..." The strings of the qin broke, and it also stopped the "House of Flying Daggers" she had just played. At this moment, she just remembered the occasion of this piece, and it was so in line with her heart at the moment, she was in a panic.

How to do?
Now she doesn't know whether to trust Xiang Jinchen or not.

Forget it, at night, she must ask him to see his mother. He always said that he had something to do and said it was inconvenient, so after seven or eight days of pushback, she would not let him push it any longer tonight.

Unable to do anything, she had to sit in front of the door with Xiao Zhen'er in her arms, basking in the sun, but the sun could not make her feel better. She looked at the direction of the grove with boredom. Xiang Jinchen should have come from that direction yes.

Suddenly, she remembered that he used to dislike coming to the palace, but now, he just put her in the palace, and still comes every day.

What is he up to?
He never said anything, and she thought it was a man's business, so she didn't ask. Only now did she feel that everything seemed a bit wrong.

The more I think about it, the more afraid I become, the more panicked I become.

She didn't know how long she had been looking at, but before it was completely dark, Xiang Jinchen appeared in her field of vision.

Hastily tidying up her disturbed mood, she embraced Xiao Zhen'er and greeted him, "Jinchen, you're back." No matter whether he is true or not, she can only bite the bullet and deal with it now.

"Ximo, I came back earlier today. My brother is not in the palace today, so tonight, I want to take you to meet the empress dowager."

Her heart skipped a beat, but she calmed down immediately. Maybe, she was wrong again. He is going to take her to see her mother now. As soon as he sees her, he will know the truth. , "Okay, let's go now."

"Ximo, let's do it later, there are a lot of people outside now, if I meet someone, I'm afraid it will be bad."

"Is it going to be very late?" She asked him pretending to know nothing, but her eyes fell on the food box in his hand, the more she looked at it, the more panicked she became, she didn't want to eat what he brought back.

"Well, it's going to be the third watch anyway, so it's safer." Xiang Jinchen put down the food boxes in his hand, opened them and took them out one by one on the table, "I came back early today, Xi Mo, let's eat together."

Seeing him serving the rice, he took the chopsticks and handed it to her, "Come on, eat it while it's hot. Today we have roast lamb, which is your favorite."

Yes, those days living on the prairie made her used to eating barbecue, especially mutton, which is delicious and tender, and she likes it very much, but now looking at the food on the table, she hesitated. Everything she saw and thought made her fear and worry again.
