Chapter 45: Duplicity
I turned my head to see that Yang Xuanchun was coming from a distance, he looked at me quietly for a while, and said, "I heard that you are sick, but you look good." ”
I was busy saluting, but Yang Xuanchun stopped: "Everyone in the palace knows that Concubine Bai is pregnant now, even if the palace ladies see it, they must also take care of the flesh and blood of the emperor's brother, so as not to ask for peace, now in front of me, you don't have to be like this." ”
What the? Do all the palaces know? Listening to his words, I was a little absent-minded: "Your Highness, when did you get the news?"
Yang Xuanchun sneered: "You don't have to look at this king with suspicious eyes, this matter has nothing to do with me, all of them are the emperor's younger brothers, it was he who personally went to meet his father and told everyone the good news." I want to make you a concubine, a white concubine, you really make this king impressed! “
Concubine? I'm already a side concubine, and if I go up, I'm ...... The princess? I couldn't believe my ears, how was that possible? Is Yang Xuanyi crazy? Or, did I hear it wrong?
"Bai Yange, this king is now thinking about whether to send you out or not. It seems that this royal brother of mine is not as useless to you as you say, he seems to be very nervous about you! “
"No, Your Highness, I must leave! His Royal Highness is good to me just because...... Because of the ...... in my stomach, my voice is getting quieter and quieter, yes, how can Yang Xuanyi really be good to me, he is just because he just lost a child, and it happens that I am pregnant, so he thinks that this is God's compensation for him, that's all.
"You're still leaving? Now you are alone in Jiuyang Palace, and he gave birth to the emperor and grandson, you have made a great contribution, and this harem has your foothold. If you are lucky enough to give birth to a boy, then glory and wealth are just around the corner, and what else do you have to pursue? ”
"That's not as good as freedom!" I don't know if he was tempting me or why he told me this, but even Yang Xuanyi, who was a little nicer to me now, couldn't change my decision to leave, so I resolutely said, "Your Highness, don't say such things again." If His Highness is here to test me, then there is no need for this. I, Bai Yange, can swear by the sky, and I have never wanted to stay. I am still the same as before, away from the hustle and bustle, away from the hustle and bustle, and live a carefree life. ”
What about prosperity and wealth? What about entering the Middle Palace? I have to be bound all my life, and I will always live a frightened life, shouting at others every day, and walking on thin ice in the huge harem.
"Hehehe......" Yang Xuansong's eyes were full of disbelief when he looked at me: "Freedom? Since ancient times, women should obey the three obedience and four virtues, what is the freedom in your mouth? ”
His words were full of disdain, like looking at a monster. I knew that it was impossible to discuss the equality of men and women with an ancient, so I changed my attitude: "Your Highness said that I was delusional, or mediocre people disturbed me, but what Yan Ge wanted was a man who had the same heart as me." Even if it is coarse tea and light rice, it is also sweet, and it is by no means aging in the daily competition for favor. "So he should understand, I just want a man who belongs to me, a man that other women won't touch. Although this is quite a jump here.
Yang Xuanchun narrowed his eyes: "You are really getting harder and harder to figure out." He flicked his sleeves: "Well, since you haven't changed your mind, then we can still cooperate." It's just that this king has to remind you that this time is different from the past, and this piece of meat in your stomach is too ostentatious. After he finished speaking, he made a gesture of raising and dropping his hand, and without looking at my sudden change of color, he walked away.
I stood there in a daze, breathing rapidly, my hand unconsciously touched my lower abdomen, he wanted me, what to do?
"What are you thinking about?" There was an extra cloak on my shoulders, and I looked back, and I didn't notice when Yang Xuanyi was standing next to me, and I turned back unnaturally: "When did Your Highness come?" ”
Will he see Yang Xuansong?
"When I first arrived, I went to see you, and they said you came here. Now that you have a body, why are you still running around? His voice was surprisingly gentle and his eyes were surprisingly eager, but the more he was kind to me, the more sad I felt. I sniffed and said, "Your Highness...... Why is it so good for me? Is it because of the child in my belly? "I can't think of anything other than that.
In exchange for my words, he hooked the tip of my nose and pressed his forehead against mine, like the most intimate ear grind between lovers, and he whispered: "Perhaps, this king does not know." But don't you want this king to be nice to you? ”
I don't know how to respond, although he is hateful, and I hate him very much, but after all, I am the father of my child, and yet, I am about to leave, how can I say this? He had just lost a child, should he lose it again? In that case, how could he stand it?
I shook my head, I didn't want to imagine what kind of expression he would have when he lost it again, the Jiuyang Palace was so big, there were so many women, how could he lose it, it was just that there was one less person who had not many of me.
Seeing that I was sullen and silent, he suddenly laughed: "You, you are so duplicitous, you obviously care about this king very much, so why do you need to deny it." He put his arms around my waist and said very tenderly, "Yange, I'm glad you have my child, our child." When he is born, the king will let him succeed me. ”
"How does His Highness know that it is the county king, and if it is the county lord?"
The beard rubbed against my face, tickling, and he said casually: "Whether it is the king of the county or the lord of the county, this king likes it." This is our first child, and there will be more in the future, right? ‘
I held back my sad tears: "Your Highness has countless beauties, and naturally there will be more children in the future." "Why, just thinking of the scene of him hugging left and right, I feel like I can breathe.
"Is Yan Ge jealous?" He stared at me tightly, if you don't like it, this king will go less. It's just that some of them are offered from all over the world, and this king can't shirk it. ”
"How can I be qualified to ask His Highness about things?" I said huffingly.
He looked very helpless: "Are you still angry about Zhou's affairs?" This king already knew in advance that she was going to harm you, so how could he spare her? ”
"And what about her now?"
"Naturally, she is in prison, if you feel uncomfortable, this king will hand her over to you to deal with."
"Your Highness keeps saying that it is the Zhou family, have you forgotten that you were in love with her back then?" This Zhou stung me deeply, in fact, I am no different from Zhou Tianruo, and he is just a tool for fun. When you like it, please it, and if you don't like it, you disdain it and put it aside. Zhou Tianruo's today is my tomorrow, if I stay like this for a long time.
The thought of this strengthened my determination to leave.
