In ancient times, children were prone to early death, and ordinary children had to live to be ten years old, and their bodies were hard before they could breathe a sigh of relief, and this child stood still. Therefore, the unwritten rule of Great Chu is that the prince of the Feng dynasty will generally be over ten years old before the Zongren Mansion will approve it.

Ye Yichen asked puzzledly, "What are you worried about?" ”

Yulan sighed and said, "I'm just a little afraid, I'm afraid that I won't be able to fulfill my promise to Brother Wen...... Because Brother Wen didn't crawl out of my stomach after all, and he didn't raise him in front of me since he was a child. I'm afraid that when I have my own son, I will treat him better than Brother Wen! I am afraid that in the future, because of my son, I will change myself, and for the sake of his future, I will frame his brother and help him seek the position of son! So I want you to make the throne of the world now. Once the position of the son of the world is decided, I will never have such thoughts again...... People are selfish, and I don't know if I'll be like that in the future! I won't do it for my own sake, but for my son's sake, maybe I'll change! ”

Ye Yichen was moved when he heard it, and this sincerity alone made people awe-inspired. He gently rubbed the woman's cheek: "Wen'er can meet a stepmother like you, it's his creation!" No matter what happens in the future, I believe you won't hurt Brother Wen! ”

Yulan snorted, "Why are you so confident in me? "I don't have faith myself.

Ye Yichen said proudly: "I look at people, I will never be wrong!" I can trust your character! "It's a beautiful thing to say.

The man comforted her again: "Don't think about it! Didn't Dr. Bai tell you to give birth to a good baby, don't overwork, don't worry about sadness! Whether you are born as a brother or a sister in the future, I like it! ”

The news of Yulan's pregnancy spread quickly in Beijing like a bombshell.

The next day was the second day of the Lunar New Year, and the fifth wife was also raising a baby at home, so it was inconvenient to go out, so the eldest wife and the second wife went back to their parents' house in the morning, and rushed over to see Yulan early in the afternoon.

"It's good to be pregnant, it's good to be pregnant! The second wife took Yulan's hand, smiling so much that she couldn't see her teeth, Yulan's marriage to Ye Yichen is a genuine high marriage, looking at her young and beautiful now, Ye Yichen loves her a lot, but a man's favor is the most unreliable, maybe one day he will be able to pamper others.

But if Yulan has a child, it will be the grandson of the Yang family, and this family business can be regarded as really reliable. For example, Ye Minwen, although Princess Bai is gone, Ye Minwen will always be the grandson of the Bai family, and the Jin Wangfu and the Bai family will always be relatives.

There are still many places that can be used in the future, Yulan is pregnant, and the second wife is really happy.

The second wife said: "When you give birth to a son in this womb, you will be a great hero of the palace, and you will be able to really gain a firm foothold in the palace!" ”

Yulan thought to herself, how can I know if the one in Lu Dao's belly is male or female. I had to bow my head and say shyly: "The prince said, whether it is a man or a woman, he likes it!" “

The second wife was even more happy when she heard this: "The prince still loves you!" That's good, even if you take a step back and say that this baby is not a boy, as long as the prince loves you, you can always give birth to a son! ”

When the eldest lady saw Yulan's ruddy face and radiant appearance, she remembered Yuxinlai, who had a miscarriage, and her eyes couldn't help but moisten. "My poor Xin'er, if she hadn't been misconceived by that black heart, the child would have been born in a few months......" he said and pressed the corner of his eye with a handkerchief.

The second wife frowned: "Sister-in-law, today is to say good news to our seventh aunt and grandmother, why did you say such things, you don't have to make the seventh aunt and grandmother uncomfortable!" ”

Yulan listened to it, and her heart was also sour. comforted the eldest lady and said: "Zhang Liangyuan in the East Palace has been diagnosed as pregnant!" That Zhang Liangyuan was only born as a palace maid and had a low status. Wait for her to give birth to this child, and raise it under the knee of the crown princess, and when she grows up in the future, she will be no different from herself! ”

The eldest lady was a little surprised when she heard this, Yu Xin didn't have time to discuss these things with her: "It's not that you can't give birth to yourself at all in the future, why do you have to hold other people's children and raise them in your own name, and suddenly let others take the place of the concubine?!" ”

Yulan has a headache, the things in the palace are not something that the eldest lady can put her beak in, not to mention that even if Yuxin can give birth to a child in the future, she is not willing to give the prince that kind of life anymore. But you can't say this to the eldest lady. can only say vaguely: "It is impossible for the prince to have no children in the past five years, rather than waiting for other concubines and concubines to give birth to children one by one, and threaten the status of the princess with the help of children, it is better to raise one early, so that no matter how many children the prince has in the future, no one can cross the princess's identity to ......"

After talking for a while, I finally calmed down the eldest lady. The second wife saw Yulan's tired look on her face, and wanted to come and see her well, but it made her tired, and the eldest lady was too eyeless. Hurriedly pulled the eldest lady to say goodbye.

Yulan got up to send it, but the second wife resolutely refused, so Yulan had to ask Mother Qian to send the two wives to the second door.

On this day, there were many people who came to visit Hexi, except for their loved ones Yulan.

On the third day of the junior high school, the queen, Concubine Xiao, and Concubine Hui in the palace rewarded things one after another in order to show their closeness and wooing. After Yu Xin learned about it, she was even more happy for her sister, and directly returned the two grandmothers that Yulan found for her.

After all, Mother Qian has waited for pregnant women, and two professionals can share some of it for her. These two mothers were personally selected by Yulan, and there will be absolutely no problems, and Yulan is very relieved to use them. In this way, the main courtyard will be foolproof.

Green Branch not only sent over the two grandmothers, but also brought the latest news from the East Palace. Since Zhang Liangyuan's pregnancy was heard by heaven, the emperor has attached so much importance to it, and the queen is naturally no exception, and immediately sent a female official to Zhang Liangyuan to wait.

Zhang Liangyuan didn't know which tendon was wrong, so she asked the female official to speak like the queen, remove all the people placed by the crown princess around her, and ask the queen to send someone else.

Yulan was truly speechless, and at the same time felt sad for that Zhang Liangyuan's IQ!

She is just a little palace maid, because she is pregnant, she was exceptionally promoted to Liangyuan, and now her child is a man or a woman who does not know the way, and whether she can give birth or not, how can the queen go to the face of the crown princess who is full of uncertainties for a little Liangyuan like her, who is full of uncertainties and has deep strength and can help her son in her career?

Isn't this whimsical?

Yulan shook his head and sighed: "This Zhang Liangyuan is too ignorant of what to do!" ”

Lu Zhi's face showed indignation: "You can't blame her completely, you can only blame our crown princess!" ”

Yulan was shocked: "There really is her head and tail here?" "Yuxia is really afraid that the world will not be chaotic!

Lu Zhi said: "The crown princess is fair, and Zhang Liangyuan still trusted the princess at the beginning. Since she was named Liangyuan from a palace maid, the crown princess and concubine only went to her palace to sit a few times, and each time did not exceed a stick of incense, and I didn't know what she said to Zhang Liangyuan, Zhang Liangyuan began to be suspicious! I don't know how she instigated it! ”

Yulan shook his head again and again, this Yuxia is really hateful! "And how did it end?"

Lu Zhi obviously also felt quite helpless about Zhang Liangyuan's IQ: "That idiot wants to replace people, so everyone in the palace knows about it, and the queen just wants to pretend that she doesn't know the way." I had to send my eldest aunt to comfort the princess, and on the other hand, I sent my grandmother to admonish Zhang Liangyuan! ”

Zhang Liangyuan was admonished by the grandmother from the palace, and now she is even more timid, terribly afraid! The crown princess doesn't want to care about her now! ”

Yulan sighed secretly in her heart, according to Zhang Liangyuan's tossing method, eight or nine times out of ten, the child in her belly could not be saved. It seems that Yuxin can only wait for the next opportunity.

The New Year was lively outside, and the banquet was full, but Yulan was raising a baby at home every day. At first, there was nothing but drowsiness, but on the fifteenth day of the first month, her pregnancy reaction began to intensify. Dizziness and fatigue, disgust with oiliness, nausea and vomiting, all of them appeared.

Yulan was tossed so weak that Ye Yichen was also in a hurry. I invited Dr. Bai and the Imperial Doctor all over, but Doctor Bai and the Imperial Doctor had no choice. Just tell her to pay attention to recuperation, pay attention to diet, and relax her spirit. Yulan has never eaten pork, but he has seen pigs run, and he knows that he really can't blame the doctor for his poor medical skills, this pregnancy reaction is caused by excessive hormone secretion in the body, and drinking Chinese medicine is indeed not good!

Ye Yichen had no choice but to ask Manager Ma to search for chefs everywhere and fill them in Yulan's small kitchen, whatever Yulan wanted to eat, even if it was dragon meat in the sky, he would immediately make it and present it.

This New Year, Xiao Yunqian had a good time, to paraphrase a modern word, it was simply terrible. On Chinese New Year's Eve, she didn't even see Ye Minyu's face, let alone have a reunion dinner with him and keep the year.

Listening to the mother-in-law Chinese New Year's Eve Ye Minyu rested in Miss Duan's house that night.

In the past few days since returning to Beijing, Ye Minyu has spent most of her time in the study, going to see Miss Duan in the small courtyard across the wall from time to time, and occasionally pampering a concubine in the house, but never stepping into Xiao Yunqian's room for half a step.

Xiao Yunqian's room has a strict grandmother to teach her the rules, and there is also a grandmother sent by the iron-faced and selfless Chengqian Palace to guard the second door, she just wants to find Ye Minyu's bad luck, and she can't get out of this door.

Xiao Yuqian gradually understood that although she was still the nominal Princess of Zhao, she had been completely imprisoned in this small Zhao Palace, without her housekeeper, nor let her socialize, and even let her receive the palace banquet.

After a lot of pleading, on the second day of junior high school, Concubine Xiao finally opened up and let her go back to Xiao's house, but her grandfather, grandmother, and father, who had always loved her, all scolded her severely, and she cried and complained to them, but no one was willing to stand up for her.

Xiao Yunqian's heart sank to the bottom. She finally understood one thing, she had been given up by the Xiao family.

Xiao Yunqian's heart was holding back a fire! She hates, hates everyone! The Xiao family, the Ye family! But she couldn't vent.

On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, the year was over. After the two grandmothers from the palace taught Xiao Yunqian the rules, Xiao Yunqian couldn't sit still, and said to the nurse: "Go out for a walk!" ”

The nurse hurriedly asked someone to get a fur coat in a big hairy black gray squirrel, and Xiao Yunqian took people to the back garden first. The back garden of Zhao Wangfu is very large, pavilions, small bridges and water pavilions, and the scenery is also quite pleasant, but this scenery Xiao Yunqian has already seen it eight hundred and ten times, and now it is winter again, and the grass and trees are withered, how can there be anything to see!

Xiao Yunqian became more and more annoyed as she walked, and she only felt that nothing was smooth.

After walking for a cup of tea, he turned out of the back garden. Seeing that it was still early, Xiao Yunqian said to the maid and the nurse: "I remember that there is a small garden in the northeast corner of the house, and there seems to be a small lotus pond in it, let's go there and go around!" ”

The nurse hesitated: "Princess, let's go back to the main courtyard as soon as possible, the weather is so cold, and there are no lotus flowers to look good in winter, what is there to see in an empty pool!" ”

The nurse was frightened by Concubine Xiao's thunderous means, she escaped death that day, and was finally fished out by Mrs. Xiao, otherwise she would have to go to the barren land of Heilongjiang to be with the savages, so now Xiao Yunqian has some bad ideas, and the nurse is also willing to give up the old face's hard persuasion.

The nurse really didn't want Xiao Yunqian to go to that small garden, because it was too close to where King Zhao's pregnant concubine Duan lived in.

The nurse also understood during this time that Miss Zhao Wang Duan was trying her best to protect her, not only refused to let her see Xiao Yunqian, the hostess of the palace, but even sent two guards to guard the place where she lived.

It can be seen that King Zhao attaches great importance to Miss Duan and the child in Miss Duan's belly.

If Xiao Yunqian causes some more trouble, she and her whole family will really die without a place to be buried!

Xiao Yunqian really had such thoughts in her heart, she heard that Miss Duan couldn't wait for King Zhao when she was pregnant with a child, but King Zhao often went to her small courtyard to sit, and she rewarded a lot of good things during the New Year, she wanted to see what kind of immortal character this Miss Duan was, who could fascinate King Zhao like this!

It's okay if the nurse doesn't persuade her, but after such persuasion, Xiao Yunqian was furious. "Why, can't this princess even go to a garden now? Or do you see that this princess has lost power, and you also want to climb on the head of this princess to make a fortune? ”

This was a bit heavy, and when the nurse heard this, she knelt down in the snow, and said while wiping her tears: "The princess is serious! You are a slave and a maid, and you don't know how loyal the slave or maid is to you? How will I expect you to be bad! We are already struggling in the palace now, why bother to make the prince unhappy, why not stop and live a life, wait for a long time, the wind has passed, and you can think of a good way to get back to the prince's heart, wouldn't it be better than doing things indiscriminately? ”

Xiao Yunqian sneered again and again: "I'm just going to walk in the garden, and you also have such a big thing waiting to talk about me, and say that you are loyal to me!" I don't want you to be so faithful! "She was really bored and wanted to die of persuasion by the nurse during this time, and she spoke very politely." Today, the princess must go to the garden, you can follow if you want, if you don't want to follow, go back and tell the two nurturing grandmothers in the palace to see what reason they use to punish me! ”

Xiao Yunqian said and waved her hand: "Go!" Seeing Xiao Yunqian's hideous face and fierce eyes, she didn't dare to say a word, and followed Xiao Yunqian.

Seeing this, the nurse sighed and got up and followed.

She knew that Xiao Yunqian was a firecracker now, so it was amazing for her to meet Miss Duan.

Who knows what Lu Dao is afraid of! As soon as the group entered the garden, they saw a woman with a slightly protruding belly walking there with two little girls on the edge of the lotus pond.

What a coincidence! Previously, Duan's had been raising a fetus in the room, and the imperial doctor would come to check her pulse every half a month, and Duan's had followed Ye Minyu all the way into Beijing, although it had passed the time when the first three months were the easiest to have a miscarriage, but after all, the long journey was tiring, and it took a long time to recuperate before the body gradually improved.

She was originally the daughter of a seven-rank petty official, and her family was not the kind of scholarly family that has been passed down from generation to generation, and she couldn't understand how the dignified King Zhao could look down on a woman like her. If you say that she is beautiful and beautiful, it is okay to have a beautiful appearance, although she is beautiful, she has not yet reached that realm.

King Zhao was also very strange when he got along with her, always looking at her with a complicated expression, but he didn't allow her to speak. As soon as she spoke, King Zhao would appear very angry.

Sometimes Ye Minyu looked at her, her eyes were obsessed, but her eyes were empty and hazy. Until one day she suddenly woke up to the fact that Ye Minyu didn't see her. He was looking at another person through her......

Later, after a few spring breezes, she became pregnant with Ye Minyu's child. Ye Minyu promised her that when she gave birth to the child successfully, she would ask her to be crowned a side concubine.

Her family is very happy, the family has no savings, and her father is not a high-ranking official, and it is also her blessing to be the prince's concubine. She happily followed Ye Minyu into the capital and into the palace. She originally thought that the palace must have great rules, and the princess didn't know whether she was kind or not, so she was quite worried, but when she arrived at the palace, Ye Minyu settled her in a small courtyard close to the study in the front yard, and did not ask her to see the princess.

Of course, this is not in line with propriety! The concubine should serve tea to the master's mother before she has passed the bright road, but she is like this now, but she is a little nondescript?

She was puzzled in her heart, so she had the courage to ask Ye Minyu, but Ye Minyu told her: "You just have to take care of the fetus, and the other has its own king to make decisions for you." After thinking about it, he said: "If you meet the princess one day, just pull out your feet and leave, and don't talk to her!" She seemed very reluctant to see the princess.

Duan's heart was even more puzzled. It's just that she didn't dare not listen to Ye Minyu's words, so she kept the cat in the house all the time. It's just that recently, after the doctor diagnosed the pulse, he said that she was weak, and told her to walk around and exercise more on weekdays, so as not to have no strength when she gave birth in the future, so she began to go out.

At first it was a walk in the yard. Later, I slowly became bolder, and only occasionally went to this small garden that was very close to me for a walk.

I didn't expect to meet the princess like this today!

Naturally, she hadn't seen the princess, but just looking at the dress and the pomp, she also knew that the woman in front of her who looked good, but had a sinister aura in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, was the princess.

Thinking of Ye Minyu's Dundun teaching, she didn't dare to stay longer, so she asked the two little girls to help her walk quickly.

But by this time it was a little late.

"Stop!" Xiao Yunqian had already seen her, she saw a thin and dry woman scattered by the water's edge from a distance, that slightly bulging belly, there was no second pregnant person in Zhao Wangfu, needless to say, it was Duan's family.

Xiao Yunqian had long wanted to see the Duan family, so she would be allowed to leave like this.

Duan remembered Ye Minyu's teachings, didn't dare to stay longer, and hurriedly walked outside the garden. Xiao Yunqian saw that she didn't listen to her greetings, and she was even more angry in her heart, and pushed the maid next to her hard: "Are you all dead?" Why don't you call her to this princess! ”

The maid did not dare to disobey and immediately shouted in a pretending manner: "Bold! The princess is here, and she hasn't come to see her! ”

The Duan family was born in a small family, and he had never seen such a battle. Listening to a few maids shouting loudly, I was immediately a little confused. The two girls who followed her were brought out by her from her mother's house, and she didn't have any knowledge, so she was so frightened that her legs and stomach weakened.

After hesitating, several maids had already surrounded him, because the Duan family was pregnant, and they didn't dare to force each other too much, but said, "Don't go and see the princess soon!" ”

The Duan clan had long since lost his mind, and deeply regretted that he should not have come to this small garden. At this time, it was difficult to ride a tiger, so I had to move to Xiao Yunqian step by step, lowered my head, and said in a mosquito-like voice: "Minnu Duan's family, see the princess Niangniang, the princess Niangniang is auspicious!" ”

Although her belly was not very large, it was still very difficult to bend her knees.

Xiao Yunqian originally thought that she must be a stunning woman in order to enter the eyes of King Zhao. But just looking at her figure and waist, you can see that there is still a certain gap between her and the stunning beauty. Just looking at her skin, it was slightly rough, obviously not as moist and delicate as her well-maintained skin, Xiao Yunqian couldn't help but despise it in her heart.

Xiao Yunqian didn't scream, but asked condescendingly, "You are the Duan family?" ”

"Yes!"

"What kind of stunning beauty do I have when you are so fascinated that you are willing to leave the princess of the Holy Majesty for you and ask your husband to have a child? It's just a village girl with no education, is the prince blind? There was infinite mockery in his tone.

Duan has always maintained the posture of bending his knees to perform blessings, and it is extremely hard to go down with such a blessing with a stomach, and hearing this is like a thorn in his back. I don't know what to say!

The nurse was already very anxious when she saw this situation. wanted to remind Xiao Yunqian to tell the Duan family to stand up and speak, but he knew that with Xiao Yunqian's temper, it would only backfire.

Fortunately, Xiao Yunqian is not stupid to go home, knowing that with her current situation, if something happens again, it is very likely that as Concubine Xiao said, she will be sent to the ancestral hall, and she will be a green and ancient Buddha for the rest of her life, bitter and lonely.

Seeing that Duan's stingy look, he only felt that Ye Minyu had no taste at all. She also knew that it was enough to stop, and sneered a few times before saying, "Get up!" ”

Xiao Yunqian said slowly: "Raise your head and let the palace take a look!" ”

Duan Shi raised his head and showed a beautiful face that was not the top in front of Xiao Yunqian. Xiao Yunqian didn't think anything at first, but when she looked at it twice, her expression changed greatly, she suddenly trembled with anger, and stretched out a finger to point at Duan Shi: "You...... You ......"
