Chapter 611: Bitter Fruit

Although the crown princess Tang has been desperately urging His Royal Highness the crown prince to favor the latter as soon as possible, and now that she has got her wish, it stands to reason that she should be happy, but ...... The first and fifteenth days of each month are the days when the crown princess can spend the night with the prince by convention. The prince didn't go to the backyard for these two days, if he went to the backyard, it would be impossible to be with a woman other than the princess, it would be a slap in the face of his wife. The dignity of belonging to the main house alone was given to the concubine, which meant that the prince was already extremely dissatisfied with his wife.

That's exactly what happened!

The crown princess likes Chu Liangyuan and wants to recommend her to His Royal Highness the Prince, in the final analysis, it is just to let her get pregnant as soon as possible, give birth to a son, and raise her by herself. For the crown princess, she is a tool to borrow her belly. No matter how much the crown princess likes her, it is only because she can fulfill her wishes and will not cause trouble. But if one day, this tool hurts the crown princess's face, it is probably another matter.

Tools are interchangeable. Chu Liangyuan is not the only one in the world who can give birth to an heir for the prince.

Qin Hanzhen and Zhao Mo both felt that the backyard of the East Palace was estimated to be chaotic for a while.

The prince didn't have anything important, he just spoiled a concubine. With this kind of privacy, Zhao Mo couldn't go into the palace casually to inquire, so he could only suppress his curiosity first. However, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the palace is almost ready to start preparing for the Wanshou Festival in October. Zhao Mo held back for a day, and then went to the East Palace under the pretext of asking His Royal Highness the Crown Prince what he thought about this year's Wanshou Festival.

Qin Hanzhen was a little anxious waiting for news in the courtyard.

Zhao Mo went, and he went for half a day. Qin Han was really a little uncomfortable. Since getting married, it can be regarded as the first time that she has been separated from Zhao Mo for such a long time, and she is a little unaccustomed to it for a while. In order to find something to do for herself, she turned out her painting tools, took a bottle of folded branches and flowers for decoration as a model, and practiced white drawing slowly and methodically. It's just that after she patiently drew the whole bottle of folded flowers, she took a closer look and found that her level had dropped a lot. I don't know if it's because she's distracted or because she hasn't practiced for many days.

It seems that you still have to practice your calligraphy and painting skills more, and you can't always worry about Zhao Mo. Even if it's on the newlywed honeymoon, life should be healthy and don't be too depraved.

Qin Hanzhen felt that he had finally calmed down.

And at this time, Zhao Mo happened to come back. His expression was a little indescribable.

Qin Hanzhen pushed all the girls in the house out, and even Feng'er didn't guard the door, but sat on the stone chair in the courtyard, and couldn't hear what the people in the house were saying at all. This is the courtyard of the Suning County Palace, not the Yongjiahou Mansion, Qin Hanzhen commanded, there will definitely be no girl who is close to the house, whether it is with ulterior motives or accidentally bumped into it. That's the benefit of being a housekeeper.

Qin Hanzhen asked Zhao Mo: "What's the matter? Have you seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the palace......? Is it really ......"

Zhao Mo told her dryly: "When I met His Royal Highness the Prince, I met the big eunuch beside him and asked him if he wanted to record Chu Liangyuan's stay last night, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that he didn't need to, because he was so drunk that he didn't remember anything." ”

Qin Hanzhen blinked: "Then His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is indeed ......"

Zhao Mo shook his head hesitantly: "Impossible, when I saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he was very sober and had a good complexion, and he didn't have any hangover symptoms at all." Although His Royal Highness's health has improved greatly in recent years, he is still weaker than ordinary people, and he is extremely careful in his diet and daily life, and it is impossible to be negligent and drunk. Besides, I remember that if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince drinks too much, his body will be unwell, and it will take at least two or three days to recover. But His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is no different today, last night, I also remember that he didn't drink too much, and returned to the East Palace after the banquet. I think that maybe His Royal Highness the Crown Prince didn't drink too much at all, but just claimed to be so. ”

Qin Hanzhen raised his eyebrows: "Why did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince do this? Besides, since he wasn't drunk, why did he pamper Chu Liangyuan? Or ...... He didn't pamper Chu Liangyuan, he just claimed to have done so, and then used drunkenness as an excuse to get by?" she paused, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, this is ...... Are you deliberately angry with the princess?"

Zhao Mo tugged at the corners of his mouth, he was not qualified to care about the affairs between the prince and his wife, but he just said to Qin Hanzhen: "Last night, it seemed that after the party, Chu Liangyuan was worried that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had drunk too much and was unwell, so he made wine soup and sent it over, but was left by His Royal Highness the Prince to accompany him to drink, but he got drunk without drinking two glasses, and then she stayed in His Royal Highness the Prince's room. When she woke up, it was already the next morning, and the prince was not in the same room with her at that time, whether the prince spoiled her or not, probably only the two of them knew, but the prince left her for breakfast, and specially ordered someone to send her back to the room, and asked the princess to report a letter to the princess, and asked the princess to remember to reward Chu Liangyuan's things, saying that Chu Liangyuan waited well......"

Qin Hanzhen also showed an indescribable expression on his face: "Sure enough, it's revenge......" After all, the crown princess really didn't save face for the prince at the palace banquet last night. The crown prince simply did what she wished and "pampered" Chu Liangyuan, now the crown princess has nothing to say, right?

But in fact, nothing should have happened last night, otherwise the prince values his heirs, and it is impossible to instruct the big eunuchs around him not to record Chu Liangyuan's "favor" last night. In case Chu Liangyuan is "pregnant", it is necessary to look at the records and match the date, so that the child in her womb can be sure of her innocence. At Royal, this is definitely not a small matter!

Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was not fascinated by beauty, he really favored Chu Liangyuan, and Qin Hanzhen was able to put his mind at ease. She sighed: "It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is not confused, although everyone is saying good things about Chu Liangyuan, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has never been fooled. ”

Zhao Mo said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has changed a lot of views on Chu Liangyuan now, but because of her different life experience, the crown princess and Chu Zhengfang's husband and wife acted unpleasantly, so he insisted on not favoring Chu Liangyuan." Now he used Chu Liangyuan as an excuse to be angry with the crown princess, but he also rewarded Chu Liangyuan with a lot of things in private, and treated her very well, lest she be embarrassed by the crown princess, which was really a loss. It's hard to say whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is fooled or not, but fortunately, he hasn't eaten the soup and dim sum offered by Chu Liangyuan yet, and he hasn't touched Chu Liangyuan, and his vigilance is still there, so we can indeed rest assured for the time being. ”

Sounds like they're relieved a little early?

Qin Hanzhen asked Zhao Mo: "Is the crown princess embarrassed by Chu Liangyuan?

Zhao Mo smiled: "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince changes his day, maybe the crown princess will be very happy, right?" But she is really annoyed now. I was in the front yard of the East Palace, and I could feel the panic of the palace people. I heard that after Chu Liangyuan returned to the room, she immediately freshened up and changed her clothes, and then went to the palace of the crown princess, and kept kneeling in front of the palace to plead guilty, but the princess didn't even ask her to get up, let alone let her enter the door. When I accompanied His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for lunch, I heard him tell his chamberlain to see the Crown Princess, telling the Crown Princess not to go too far, Chu Liangyuan had saved him meritoriously, and he didn't make any mistakes, so he shouldn't be treated like this. ”

Qin Hanzhen recalled the remarks of the crown princess during the palace banquet last night, and felt that she was asking for her own hardship.

Qin Hanzhen couldn't help but sneer: "The crown princess is really angry? Just because this day is not right? But isn't she the one who has been urging His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to favor Chu Liangyuan? Now that she has got her wish, she has begun to worry about some trivial matters." What's the point?"

Zhao Mo tugged at the corners of his mouth: "In her opinion, it is estimated that she felt uncomfortable only after the incident really happened, right?"

Zhao Mo guessed very accurately, the crown princess began to feel extremely uncomfortable after knowing that the prince did not come to find her on the Mid-Autumn Festival night because she was fortunate to be lucky with the truth about Chu Liangyuan.

Obviously, the prince is not without other concubines, one of them has already given birth to a son, and the other is still pregnant, but the crown princess is very uncomfortable. Probably because of ...... This woman was pushed into her husband's arms with her own hands and forced him to be pampered, right?

Obviously, she kept telling herself that the woman was going to conceive a child for her, but the sourness in her heart still kept bubbling out. But she still has nowhere to complain, because all this is the bitter fruit of her own making!

Henchman Cen Mama persuaded her: "The old slave knows that Niangniang is uncomfortable, but this is a good thing for Niangniang." If Chu Liangyuan can get pregnant, Niangniang will never have to suffer such grievances in the future! Niangniang thinks about the future, even if she is sad, she will endure it for the time being!"

The crown princess Tang gritted her teeth and accepted Mama Cen's persuasion: "It's okay." I wasn't angry, I just wanted to punish Chu Liangyuan for violating the rules of the palace. Since she has been kneeling for a long time, she already knows that she is wrong, as long as she guarantees that she will not do it again, let her get up. ”

Not long after, Chu Liangyuan, supported by the palace people, turned pale and limped into the palace, came to the crown princess, and knelt down again.

The crown princess glanced at her condescendingly, her kindness to Chu Liangyuan in the past seemed to have disappeared, and the expression on her face was also faint: "Get up, you don't have to be so polite." In the future, you just remember the rules and don't break them again. Although I have always been partial to you, you can't rely on my favor to do whatever you want. If the Queen Mother knows that you are so nonsense, and in a fit of anger, you will be severely punished, and I will not save you. ”

With these high-sounding words, Chu Liangyuan could only bow his head and be taught even if he knew that the crown princess was not sincere.

Then the crown princess instructed again: "Go back to the room and rest, I will have someone prepare some medicinal food for you, and then send two governor's grandmothers to wait for you." If you had conceived last night, they would have reported it to me as soon as they had symptoms. Don't run around, stay in the house honestly, and don't meet outsiders casually, lest you really conceive the emperor and grandson, but carelessly hurt the child. ”

Even personal freedom is restricted!

Chu Liangyuan's face couldn't help but show a sad look.

What can I do about this? The prince obviously didn't favor her, but he let out such a rumor. Although he may just be angry with the crown princess, the people in the palace who don't know the truth will believe it! How can she hide from the people waiting around her and explain the truth to her companions?

If the prince of Shu didn't know the truth and thought that she had really served the prince, and sent someone to contact her and act according to the plan, would it be dangerous?
