Chapter 117: The Unknown Heartache
Chu Xuanjing felt more and more that Yu Lingxi was a treasure to be discovered, kind and lovely, smart and wise, she was completely different from those women in the harem.
If Yu Ling is a hollow valley orchid, then Yu Ling rhino is a white lotus under the moon, although it was born in the mud, it is clean and clean, and it is still white and flawless.
"Keep it, girl's house, you can't do it without some jewelry." He didn't take it, thinking it wasn't enough.
"How's that going to work? Since it's a fundraiser, I also eat a lot of money, how can I be an exception? She grabbed Chu Xuanjing's hand and shoved it into him.
Chu Xuanjing looked at this jade bracelet that was not very good, and smiled helplessly, since it was her intention, then accept it.
The two talked happily, Yu Lingxi's stomach suddenly growled, and she hurriedly covered her stomach.
"Ugh."
When Chu Xuanjing heard this, she was hungry, "You didn't eat breakfast?" ”
"I, I'm up late, so ......" she scratched her head embarrassedly.
"Let's go, it's time for dinner."
Chu Xuanjing's lunch was very rich, and the eunuch in the imperial dining room quickly brought all kinds of dishes, meals, and soup to the table.
After he changed into his regular clothes and sat down, the eunuch who passed the meal began to try the dishes, silver chopsticks, and tried each dish, and found that there was no discoloration, so he began to try.
Yu Lingxi had never seen this kind of scene, and she was dumbfounded by this strict inspection.
"Stand down! The spirit rhino stays! ”
The eunuchs who were waiting for the meal left one after another and waited outside the palace.
"Sit."
Yu Lingxi pointed to his nose, "Me? ”
"Except for me and you here. Anyone else? Chu Xuanjing picked up the chopsticks, picked up some vegetables, and put them on the plate. What are you still doing? ”
Yu Lingxi began to twist, this is a meal with the emperor, what an honor!
She sat down awkwardly, staring at the table full of food, wanting to eat but not daring to eat, her stomach was already hungry.
"Today's reward for you to dine with me today, why don't you hurry up and eat?"
"Yes!"
Then she's welcome!
Chu Xuanjing has a habit of eating. I like to look at the excerpts when I am eating, but. Today is a bit of an exception because there is someone to accompany him.
Seeing that she was eating happily, a smile appeared on the corner of Chu Xuanjing's mouth, Yu Lingxi was since he ascended the throne. The first woman who had the privilege of having dinner with him. Moreover, he is still an attendant.
Fugui'er came in and muttered a few words in Chu Xuanjing's ear, only to see his face change slightly, and then looked at Yu Lingxi, seeing that she didn't react, he asked, "How long has it been?" ”
"The doctor said two months."
Yu Lingxi looked at him stunned, she didn't know what was going on. However, seeing that his expression was a little uncomfortable, he felt a little uneasy in his heart.
"Spirit. I'll leave for a while, and when you're done eating, let someone take it out. Before Yu Lingxi could answer, Chu Xuanjing had already left.
"What the hell is going on?"
Without him, she couldn't eat the meal, and curiosity drove her to desperately know what had happened to make him so nervous.
Qinzheng Palace, Yu Lingxi waited from noon until evening, what happened?
She went out and wanted to inquire about some news, only to hear the two little eunuchs muttering at the door, Yu Lingxi didn't hear it very clearly, and vaguely heard it, as if someone had miscarried.
"What are you talking about?"
The two little eunuchs saw that it was Yu Lingxi, and hurriedly dodged away, "Sister Lingxi, no, it's okay." ”
Then, the two left in a hurry.
Abortion? Who? There are concubines in the harem, who else can there be?
Yu Lingxi felt a little difficult to breathe, other women have his children, and more women will give birth to children for him in the future, which onion and which garlic is he counted?
She found out that she was actually one of the many women in his harem, how sad!
Turning around and returning to her own nest, she nested quietly on the bed, without tears, presumably, she couldn't cry anymore.
It was dark, there was no palm light in the house, it was pitch black, and it made people feel depressed.
"Check! Thorough investigation! Ever since I ascended the throne, this has happened one after another, either miscarriage or premature death, and if someone is found to have done something, I will cut off his head! ”
Chu Xuanjing's angry voice came from outside the hall from far to near, six years, he ascended the throne for six years, the fetus in the womb of the harem concubine was either miscarried, or died after birth, some people said that feng shui was not good, and some people said that someone did it on purpose, but what it was, no one knew, and they couldn't find out.
So, that's why he has been childless.
Hearing Chu Xuanjing's angry voice, Yu Lingxi hurriedly ran out.
Fugui'er pouted at her Nunu, signaling her to serve her well, and Yu Lingxi nodded.
......She pretended not to know anything, so she didn't ask anything, she just wanted to hear him tell her in person.
"It's been six years, and no child has ever survived safely." His words are full of vicissitudes and pain, Yu Lingxi has never been in trouble, she can't understand the pain of losing a child, looking at his sad expression, it can be seen how disappointed he was after hearing that the concubine had a miscarriage.
Yu Lingxi stood beside him silently, silently, listening to him finish speaking.
It turned out that he did not have a queen, at the beginning, when he was still the prince, there was already a crown princess, not long after getting married, she was pregnant, because she was not in good health, she died due to dystocia during childbirth, including the child who was not yet born, and was stillborn.
Later, it was found out that it was a lady who secretly did something to dispose of the lady, he never accepted a concubine again, after ascending the throne, the ladies of the East Palace were promoted to imperial concubines, every three years there are show girls into the palace, and there are many beauties appointed by him.
Chu Xuanjing didn't know the struggle, because he had just ascended the throne, he didn't have time to pay attention to the harem, so he handed it over to the fourth concubine to manage, and later, the effect was not bad, and princes and princesses were born one after another, but I don't know how, none of them can live for a month.
Later, some people said that it was the princess's unjust soul that did it, but Chu Xuanjing didn't believe it, and ordered that whoever mentioned this matter again would be punished by the nine clans!
After shock, the matter finally subsided, but the concubine was either unable to get pregnant, or had a miscarriage after pregnancy, and for a while, rumors spread.
In desperation, Chu Xuanjing asked the senior monks of Ciyun Temple to recite scriptures, fast, copy scriptures, and overtake the deceased crown princess......
"Now, she is here again, she still can't let go of that obsession, everything is my fault...... If I hadn't been so playful and accompanied her when she gave birth, she wouldn't have been poisoned...... It's all my fault......"
He blamed himself deeply, whimpered and told his mistakes, and two lines of hot tears slipped down the corners of his eyes and dripped on Yu Lingxi's heart.
Chu Xuanjing cried, at this time, he was no longer an emperor, but an ordinary man, he cried like a helpless child.
It turns out that everyone has an unknown sadness.
Yu Lingxi walked over gently, hugged him in his arms, and stroked his long hair like a crying child, giving silent comfort.
Tears slipped quietly, and she was distressed.
