Chapter 2

The two of them looked at each other and smiled, but they saw that Qing Shunyi was full of displeasure. The woman was bored playing the bead screen fan, and seemed to be biting her ears to the people around her, but in fact, she really said to everyone: "I don't pick this, I will be satisfied with having a child, not to mention men and women, whether this is biological or not is not the same." ”

Mrs. Yunping's face changed immediately, but the queen said sternly: "Qing Shunyi has lost her sense of proportion, Princess Fuhui's biological mother has never been one. She deliberately bit the word biological mother, and Mrs. Yunping was even more embarrassed for a while. The queen didn't wait for her to speak, so she faced Yuyan again, her expression was peaceful, but there was also a hint of expectation in her eyes, "Both men and women are good, safe and smooth delivery is the big thing." ”

The queen's acting skills have been so perfect, if it weren't for the long-standing grudges between the two of them, Yu Yan was afraid that she would really think that they would release their previous suspicions. However, regardless of what the queen did, it was Zhao Xiurong's piles and pieces, which one did not have her calculations and conspiracy. She and Qin Suyue are destined to fight to the death, so even if the queen is kind-faced, she is afraid that she will be in a hurry at this time.

Yu Yan got up slowly, with a flattered and humble attitude on her face, and was supported by Su E and solemnly saluted: "If you can be taken care of by the queen mother like this, the concubine will not be able to repay her." ”

The queen also smiled and hung her head, which only made people feel that the harem was harmonious for a while, and the two were like sisters.

It was a late day and night, and because of thinking about all kinds of things during the day, Daozhì Yuyan couldn't sleep peacefully. At that time, the moon was in the sky, and there was a special elegance, so she simply got up and sat in front of the window, bathing in the moonlight peacefully. Although it was unbearably hot during the day, when I opened the small window, there was a chill that hit me, which was very pleasant. When the woman looked at the sky, she couldn't help but think of Yuchen.

She heard that in these days, when King Zhuang Xian was marching, he had written three times to take Princess Heze back to the fiefdom, but the princess was stubborn and insisted on staying in Beijing. King Zhuang Xian was forced to have no choice but to lead his troops out in an orderly manner, and he did not dare to criticize Yuchen's peers for a while. Yu Hao also wanted to reward Yuyan many times for this, but she politely refused.

Yu Yan knew that there would often be correspondence between the Son of Heaven and Yuchen, but she had no way of knowing the content. It's just that as Yuchen has been away from Beijing for a long time, Shangguan Jihuan has asked the emperor more and more frequently about his news, which can't help but make Yuyan wonder, could it be that she, as a side of the palace, has never received Yuchen's family letter.

But this is just a thought, no matter what, Shangguan Jihuan is also Yuchen's rightful wife. Compared with herself who was confined in the palace, she had more power to learn the news of her husband's trip in a dignified manner. While thinking about it like this, I heard a soft sound outside the door, and it was Su E who came to turn off the lights. Seeing that Yuyan was still not resting, the woman couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Niangniang, it's time to be a child." ”

"It doesn't matter." Yu Yan just responded lightly, but his gaze still penetrated the vast night and cast into the distance, "You see, I'm not the only one in this palace who can't sleep. ”

Yuyan's gaze was directed to a brilliant palace under the starry sky in the north. The huge cluster of gold and orange light shines as brightly as day under the dark night sky, and is extremely rich and luxurious. In the huge harem, only Chaofeng Palace can be so powerful, Qin Suyue is no longer favored, after all, she is the head of the harem, and she is above 10,000 people under one person.

"That's natural," Su E smiled and flicked the wick, and the light suddenly brightened, "That master saw that your fetus was stable, and he couldn't sleep even more." An hour ago, Xiaofuzi saw that the queen summoned Zhao Xiurong to go. ”

"They can't hold their breath after all."

"The queen may be like this," Su Yi Yi turned around, with a deep meaning reflected in her eyes, "But Zhao Xiu is a cautious ...... after all"

"You're right, she won't be as light as the queen and believe that my fetus is stable. However, I didn't have time to wait. Yu Yan bowed her head slightly, and put one hand on her lower abdomen. The fetus in it died a long time ago, and the bulge in the lower abdomen after that was nothing more than a miasma. She had already had a monthly letter, and she had been careful to hide it in a precarious situation. Now that the fetus has been nearly three months old, if it drags on any longer, it will be revealed without investigation, and she must take the initiative.

Su E sighed silently and changed the subject: "Having said that, I can often see Miss Shangguan these days. ”

"The emperor originally wanted me to be her company often, but I always alienated her by seeing Princess Heze." Yu Yan's tone was cold, and it was not difficult to hear the rejection of Shangguan Yaohuan, "It's just that if you count the time, it's really time for me to meet her." ”

Su E was a little stunned: "Niangniang doesn't have to be reluctant. ”

"It's not reluctant, I just want to know what Yuchen is in love with her."

It's just that I want to know - Yu Yan persuaded himself like this, gathered all the hostility and unwillingness, and only felt at ease to be a bystander. That woman was not wrong, she was just lucky, she was born in a common people's house and escaped the catastrophe of entering the palace. However, even so, she couldn't restrain her jealousy and resentment towards Ji Huan.

Yu Yan hung her head gloomily, she still clearly remembered the sentence that Bai Yu blurted out at that birthday banquet. Whether Shangguan looks like herself or not, she figured out Guò's eyes and witnessed it in person.

"If the mother insists, the slave will invite her into the palace tomorrow."

"No need, she is also from the palace, you can ask for it when she enters the palace by herself."

Even so, because Shangguan was thinking about the prince, five days later, she really begged to be invited to the palace to meet her. That day, Yu Hao happened to be in the imperial study, so he didn't see her, and the woman inevitably had to go in vain, so when Su E and someone came to invite her, she didn't shirk it.

That was the third time Yu Yan had seen Ji Huan, who was obviously a petite woman, but with a tall nose bridge and big apricot eyes. In the scorching summer, she only wore a blue lotus-colored embroidered Yunxiang water skirt, the skirt was hooked with a waterline, and it spread like ripples when she walked. She wears a peach-colored light veil on her arm, and she doesn't add much decoration, which is refreshing. Shangguan Jihuan is actually not a few years younger than Yu Yan, but the people in the palace have gone through personnel and are dedicated to calculations, so Yu Yan seems to be older.

Yu Yan noticed the thin cocoon in her palm and knew that she was not a pampered daughter. This sense of commonality is not only reflected in the subtleties, but also in her expression. Even though she has repeatedly entered the palace, she still can't help but have the timidity in her eyes when she sees the living. Yuyan remembered that she always liked to hide behind Yuchen in a chercherno, and every now and then, people had the urge to protect her. Such a woman is easy to be loved.

And myself, even at the very beginning, never did this.

Just because he knew that people were indifferent in the morning, no matter how helpless he was, no matter how panicked, Yuyan never had the luxury of asking for help from others. She doesn't trust others, and she never puts away her wariness of others. Like a hedgehog, covered with hard thorns, it keeps the softest place out of the sight of others.

Therefore, when she falls in love with Yuchen and trusts him, she will go all out to stand on the same high place with him, want to stand side by side, and want to tell him everything she has. Even if he is abandoned and alienated by him now, Yuyan will never brew the seeds of cowardice in his heart.

Shangguan Yaohuan, she is actually not like herself.
