Chapter 10 The Tiger Falls in Pingyang

At the foot of the Son of Heaven in the capital, Prime Minister Mu Mansion

Since the crown prince Yuanxuan and Empress Xiaoling were deposed one after another, the three princes Yuanxin inherited the unification, and the prime minister's mansion, which was originally poor and luxurious, and was extremely prosperous, suddenly withered like rotten wood, and it was difficult to meet spring

However, to the surprise of the world, after Yuan Xin ascended the throne, he has been committed to eliminating the waste *** feathers, or beheading the whole family, or exiled the whole family, but the Prime Minister's Mansion, the biggest supporter of the former abolished prince, has puzzled the community

"Ah, mother, I am so painful, mother......"

The sound of crying and pain came out from Luofeng Pavilion, and I saw a crimson figure lying weakly on the soft couch behind the glittering bead curtain

Mu Luorou curled up, her hands pressed tightly on her stomach, her pink little face wrinkled into a ball due to the severe pain, and big drops of sweat slid down her forehead

"Rou'er, Rou'er insists that her mother is here to accompany you," the eldest lady Zhao Yuling stood aside anxiously, looking at the tormented Mu Luorou, distressed and anxious

However, outside the bead curtain, there was a black-robed man standing quietly, who was the blind warlock Zhugen

"The eldest lady, as long as the young lady takes this bowl of medicine, it will be over," Zhugen held a bowl of black decoction in his hand, looking very weird

Zhao Yuling heard Zhugen's words, looked down at Luo Rou's painful appearance, gritted his teeth, and stepped forward to open the bead curtain

"This medicine won't have a big impact on Rou'er's body," she frowned, looked at the bowl of decoction medicine in Zhugen's hand, and didn't stretch out her hand

A faint smile appeared on Zhugen's black and thin face, "The eldest lady, this medicine will always hurt the body, but the eldest lady should understand that the current situation is better than a short pain, and she can't ruin the young lady's life because of this."

Zhao Yuling gritted his teeth and snorted coldly, and directly reached out to take the decoction

Zhugen is right, she can't ruin Rou'er's life for this, how can her baby daughter let others see the joke

"Rou'er, Rou'er, get up quickly, drink this medicine, and you'll be fine," she sat down on the edge of the soft couch, coaxing softly in her mouth

Mu Luorou had a miserable white face, biting her lower lip and could only cry weakly: "Mother, I hurt so much, am I about to die?"

"No, Rou'er, don't talk nonsense, my mother is only a daughter like you, you must not have an accident, if you have something, your mother will not survive" Zhao Yuling, who was once arrogant and domineering, is now teary-eyed, his heart is like a knife, and he is suddenly ten years old

Overnight, she changed from the sister of Empress Xiaoling to the wife of a criminal minister, and even her most beloved daughter fell into such a miserable situation

"Mother, the baby in my belly...... Is it dead?" Mu Luorou struggled to squeeze this sentence out of her teeth

She is pregnant, and the child is the prince's brother......

"Falling Rough"

As soon as she heard her mention the child in her belly, Zhao Yuling was even more sad and angry, she couldn't have imagined that Luo Rou would have Yuan Xuan's flesh and blood at this time, if Yuan Xuan was still the crown prince and could successfully succeed to the throne and become the emperor, then this child would be the supreme and noble dragon vein, but now that Yuan Xuan was deposed and assigned to the frontier, the life and death of the frontier are unknown, and this child will ruin Luo Rou's life

"Luo Rou listened to her mother's words and drank this medicine, this child is absolutely unacceptable," Zhao Yuling carefully helped her body up, and persuaded her bitterly, afraid that Luo Rou would be reluctant

Mu Luorou half-leaned on the bed rail, tears fell down the corners of her eyes, and she kept muttering, "Child, my child, the prince, brother, ......"

The prince's brother was obedient to her, she didn't mean to harm him, she didn't hesitate to give herself to him, first, because she was afraid that he would suspect her, and secondly, she still felt guilty after all

The misfortune of the imperial aunt, father, mother, mother, and herself was all caused by her, all for that man

However, Zhao Yuling didn't know anything about this, she still thought that Luo Rou was thinking about Yuan Xuan, worried about his safety, wiped her tears, and choked up: "Rou'er, I know that you are reluctant, and I am also a mother, but now you have to be ruthless, otherwise even your father may not take a look at our mother and daughter again in the future."

Now that she has no strong backing, those lowly aunts are becoming more and more rude to her, but Mu Chengtian actually turns a blind eye to this

And if her daughter's family does not have chastity, she will be ridiculed for the rest of her life, even if the child in Luorou's womb may be Xuan'er's only bloodline in this world, she must not leave him

Mu Luorou's eyes dimmed, her pale little face was not bloody, she trembled, took the medicine bowl with her hand, pinched the spoon, and began to swallow the decoction into her stomach one by one

The disgusting bitterness and peculiar smell instantly filled her mouth, making her nauseous for a while, and her brain was dizzy

"Drink Rou'er slowly," Zhao Yuling stroked her back with tears in her eyes, wanting to soothe her

Mu Luorou didn't make a sound, forcibly held back the discomfort, and swallowed again

This is basically killing his own child with his own hands, and the heartache is as if he is dripping blood, and the face of another person is completely in his mind

Third brother Yuan Xin, I have sacrificed so much for you, do you know it?

Outside the bead curtain, Zhugen's sensitive ears collected all the conversations between the two people in the curtain, and a sneer appeared on his lips, although his eyes were blind and his ears were more than anyone else

Unexpectedly, Mu Chengtian, that old horseman, had such a good blessing, he was weak and incompetent, but he gave birth to these two good daughters, the eldest daughter Mu Xinya fell into the country and the city, and the second daughter Mu Luorou was inferior to her, although she was inferior to her, she was also a ruthless character that should not be underestimated, Mu Xinya's death was inseparable from her, and it would not be too late to follow her to take revenge

Mu Luorou fell asleep after drinking the medicine, and it was inevitable that she would suffer another painful torture, so Zhao Yuling called Baozhu to stay and serve her, and personally went to the back kitchen to stew and tonify her

Luorou must not let people know about her pregnancy and miscarriage, even Mu Chengtian, who is a father, has been kept in the dark, and he just said that he was infected with a cold disease

Now the people of the Prime Minister's Mansion are panicked like frightened birds, and everyone also believes that Mu Luorou fell ill all of a sudden because of the blow, and did not make much guesses

"Yo, isn't this the eldest lady, how can the eldest lady come to the back kitchen of this person in person, and she is not afraid of dirty hands"

When Zhao Yuling was standing at the door of the back kitchen waiting for the tonic medicine, a delicate voice suddenly came, and it was Mu Chengtian's concubine An who had only been accepted two years ago

"Rou'er is sick, I, as a mother, naturally have to do it myself, and I want to connect my mother and daughter personally, like you, of course, I won't understand," Zhao Yuling glanced at her coldly, without the slightest intention of putting her in his eyes

"Hehe" Suddenly, An Shi pinched the silk silk in his hand to hide his face and smiled, "Yes, the second lady is sick, oh, look at my rotten memory, the eldest lady is, yes, the cheap girl before, the eldest lady Mu Xinya has long been driven away by the master, it is estimated that she will either starve to death on the street or be sold to the kiln / Zi to solicit customers"

"You" Zhao Yuling wanted to sarcastically mock her, but she was insulted by her general An Shi, and the deposed Mu Xinya didn't just change her way to sarcastically mock the current eldest lady Luorou, "Hmph, you cheap/concubine, don't hang around in front of me, don't go back to your room quickly."

Zhao Yuling's tone was very fierce, if it was to give An a few dares in the past, she would definitely not dare to show off her might in front of the dignified lady, but now it is different, she An wants to come like this

Anyway, the eldest lady has long been old and decrepit, and her most powerful sister and nephew have both been abolished, and she An's is just the opposite, young and beautiful, with the art of a royal husband, and the lord's favorite wife and concubine now is none other than her

"The concubine, the eldest lady is from a famous family, why is she so unkind to speak, anyway, we should be regarded as sisters when we serve a husband together," An's "giggled, and then made up the most ruthless knife", "Anyway, the eldest lady's sister has also been beaten into the cold palace now, it should be lonely."

She was born in a poor family, and the Zhao Yuling Pan sisters with eyes higher than the sky are equivalent to slapping her, and the deposed Queen Xiaoling is definitely a thorn in her heart

"My sister Queen Xiaoling is also what you can mention, you still dare to speak wildly, call me sisters, I don't know the sky and the earth is thick, cheap / woman" Sure enough, Zhao Yuling was completely enraged, her delicate face was almost distorted together, it looked extremely hideous, even the lady's demeanor couldn't take care of it, strode forward, raised her hand, and was about to slap her, and roared angrily: "Cheap/People look at me, the housewife, I don't teach you a good lesson today"

An, who was originally proud, immediately panicked when she saw that she was about to make a move, and the two immediately scuffled together

"Ah, let go of me, let go of me"

"/person, I'm going to tear your mouth apart, I'll let you dare to be open-mouthed"

Originally, there were only subordinates in the back kitchen, but this time it was lively, and the sound of abuse and fighting suddenly attracted a group of subordinate guards

"Oh, Mrs. Auntie, stop fighting"

Everyone persuaded each other, but they couldn't pull the two who were entangled

"What are you doing," suddenly a calm male voice burst into the air, and in an instant, all the subordinates and guards were silenced, "Prime Minister"

Mu Chengtian looked at the two people who were scuffling with a gloomy face, and his lungs were about to explode, and he flicked his sleeves and shouted: "You all stop for me."

His roar of anger immediately made Zhao Yuling and An Shi stop their hands, and after a closer look, both of them were all wolfless

Zhao Yuling's hair bun was loose and messy, and there were several eye-catching blood fingerprints on An's original flower and moon appearance

"Old man, lady, she started beating me," as soon as she saw Mu Chengtian, An's immediately burst into tears, and she came forward to cry pitifully

"I'm just teaching a concubine, the master doesn't have to interfere," Zhao Yuling looked at An with scarlet eyes

Mu Chengtian looked at her as a shrew, and then saw that the An family, whom he had always loved, was caught by her and looked like this ghost, and couldn't help but be angry: "The affairs of the court have annoyed me enough, Yuling, as the main house, have you even forgotten how to run a house?"

There was obvious accusation and partiality in his words, in fact, he also had the same psychology as An's, and today's Zhao Yuling is no longer the Zhao Yuling who has a strong backing to make him fearful
