"Okay, this palace will believe you again this time, if it is done, the high-ranking official and the palace will do it for you, if it is like last time, then you will come to see it!" Concubine Rong said in a cold voice.

"Yes, the little one understands." The man bowed and said.

Concubine Rong stopped talking and turned to leave. Not long after, the axle of a carriage resounded through the trees, and from time to time startled the birds that had already fallen asleep, and flew into the sky with their wings, and then found a branch to fall, and continued to sleep.

It was a long time before the woods fell silent.

Li Qing walked out of the woods and rode straight to Xiao Mansion, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth, thinking about how to let Xiao Yiqing do this.

He knew that if he wanted to rebel against Yuzhu, Xiao Yiqing was the best candidate.

It was the third day that Yuzhu came back from Qingyin Valley, and in the past few days, she had been taken care of by Mr. Miko Jimiko, and her body and fetal image were much more stable.

Now that she has a child, Yuzhu's heart is really soft, she thinks: No matter what difficulties adults have and are unwilling, the child is always innocent.

Maybe God knew that she would have such a day, and specially gave her a child, so that she still had hope of trying to live.

From now on, no matter how hard and difficult it is, she will raise this child.

Yuzhu sat on the recliner in the pavilion while basking in the sun, touching her belly, and muttered: "How glorious and rich the title of this concubine is, how rich and noble it is, my mother is not rare, my mother only wishes that you can be born safely and grow up happily." ”

Her gaze is soft and gentle, exuding a woman's unique motherhood. There was a smile in the corner of her eyes, and it was obvious that the distraction of the past few days had been very effective for her.

At this moment, a maid stepped forward to report: "Princess Niangniang on the side of Qiyu, someone outside asks to see you." ”

"Who?" Yuzhu raised his eyes and asked.

"Yes, it's Lord Xiao Yiqing." The maid said a sentence cautiously.

Hearing that this person was coming, how could Yuzhu have no waves in his heart, he originally thought that he had ignored the world these days and retreated to the mountains, and he had long forgotten these things.

But she didn't want to hear his name now, her heart would still be surging, like a tide.

After adjusting her emotions for a while, she asked the maid again, "What is he doing here?" ”

"He was carrying a thorn on his back, probably to plead guilty." The maid replied.

"What sin can be pleaded for, and to whom do you ask for it?" Yuzhu seemed to be asking the maid, and seemed to be muttering to herself.

The little maid didn't know what it meant, shook her head, and replied stupidly: "The slave doesn't know very well. ”

Yuzhu got up and said, "Where are the others now?" ”

"If you go back to Niangniang, this son should be in the front hall, and the prince is also there."

Yuzhu sighed and said, "Let's go, let's take a look." As she spoke, she walked out of the room.

When I came to the front hall, I saw Xiao Yiqing kneeling on the ground, and said with words in his mouth: "Some time ago, when the morning was in the court, the villain didn't know the severity of the crime, and he collided with the prince, and asked the prince to forgive him." ”

Shangguan Beitang was originally sitting on the Taishi chair, but when he saw him kneeling on his knees, he hurriedly got up and came over to support him, saying, "Lord Xiao doesn't have to mind, this king has forgotten about this matter." After all, this king is sorry for you first, so let it pass. ”

"No, Lord Wang, the villain dares to frame the Lord Wang, suspects the identity of the Lord Wang, the crime is unforgivable, and please punish the Lord Wang." Xiao Yiqing said and bowed his hand and kowtowed.

"Why should Lord Xiao bother? It's all in the past. Shangguan Beitang said again.

"Lord Wang, in the heart of the prince may have passed, but the villain does not dare to forget this matter, if the prince insists on refusing to punish the villain today, the villain will not be able to kneel here." As he spoke, Xiao Yiqing took off the thorns on his body and offered them with both hands.

"This, how?" Shangguan Beitang looked at him at a loss.

But Xiao Yiqing had no intention of retreating, lowered his head, and said sincerely: "Please also ask the prince to punish him." ”

Shangguan Beitang had to reach out and pick up the thorn stick, thinking that he had finally destroyed the lover of him and Yuzhu, and he was sorry for the others first. If someone takes away his love, he will definitely be even angrier than Xiao Yiqing, I am afraid that not only to expose his identity and make him ruined, but also to kill him.

Therefore, thinking like this, it is not for him to fight with a thorn stick, nor is it to fight without fighting. It's really a dilemma, and it's very rare.

Suddenly, Shangguan Beitang shook the thorn hard, Xiao Yiqing closed his eyes and was ready to be beaten, and he even thought of how painful his skin and flesh were.

But for a long time, he didn't see the thorn hit him, Xiao Yiqing raised his head in confusion, but saw Shangguan Beitang hit the thorn on himself.

He was stunned and asked, "Lord Wang, you." ”

Shangguan Beitang said: "If Brother Xiao has to find out who is right and who is wrong in this matter, then start punishing from this king, it is this king's fault first, this first whip, this king should be the first to suffer." ”

"Lord Wang, are you okay?" Yuzhu suddenly pushed the door in, interrupting the conversation between the two of them.

"Yuzhu, why are you here?" Shangguan Beitang asked.

"Where's the hit? Does it matter? Yuzhu hurriedly stepped forward, looked at Shangguan Beitang and asked anxiously.

Shangguan Beitang put down the thorns, rolled up his sleeves and said, "It's okay."

Xiao Yiqing's eyes became entangled with Yuzhu's arrival, he saw that Yuzhu was so nervous about Shangguan Beitang, and his heart was more than sour and desolate.

This person who makes him think about it day and night, but at the moment he is thinking about another person, from the moment she enters the door, she is busy caring for that person, and her slightly bulging belly is pregnant with other people's children, all of which teaches him how not to be sad and jealous.

Finally, she was idle and had time to turn around to look at him. When she looked at him, her gaze was a little embarrassed, more distant and defensive.

She squeezed out a smile from the corner of her mouth forcefully, and said in a calm tone, "Lord Xiao." ”

Hearing her shout, Xiao Yiqing's heart swelled. In the past, she also called him Lord Xiao.

It's just that at the time he listened comfortably, but now, her call seemed so abrupt and uncomfortable. She didn't feel comfortable calling, and he didn't feel comfortable listening.

Despite this, Xiao Yiqing still couldn't help but say: "Aunt Yuzhu... ”

The word "mother" was not spoken, and he suddenly realized that he was a little rude. Hurriedly knelt down and bowed: "The lower official will see the princess on the side." ”

Yuzhu listened to each other's names, how could she feel nothing in her heart, and unconsciously the corners of her eyes flashed a little crystal, she couldn't help but let it flow out, and said in a slightly trembling voice: "Get up!" ”

After all, she is just a little girl, how can she be like Xiao Yiqing, who walks in the officialdom all the year round, to pretend to have no flaws and not show any emotions.

Once she was just a maid, full of admiration and love for him, now she has become his master.

Fate is so unpredictable, who would have thought that a pair of lovers who are in love with each other have no fate as husband and wife, and who would have thought that a little maid who keeps to herself will now be in the position of the princess on the side of the Beixuan Palace.

The two looked at each other, both with emotion.

"Lord Xiao." "Side princess mother." Yuzhu and Xiao Yiqing opened their mouths in unison. The two of them had something to say, so they had to stop greeting each other.

This pause, the two of them were silent. They opened their mouths again, but they laughed embarrassedly.

Shangguan Beitang saw it in his eyes, but he didn't say much. He knew what Yuzhu wanted to ask, so he helped ask, "Lord Xiao, are you okay recently?" A few days ago, I heard that the adult had a cold, and I thought about going to visit, but there were many trivial matters in the house, so I had to send someone to send some supplements, and asked Lord Xiao not to mind. ”

"With the thoughts of Prince Lao and the princess, the illness of the lower officials is no longer serious." Xiao Yiqing said nonchalantly.

"Brother Xiao, my marriage with Yuzhu was purely accidental, and the reason for this is inconvenient for this king to explain, but he didn't intend to hurt Brother Xiao, and I ask Brother Xiao not to mind, alienated from our past relationship. In the future, please come to the Beixuan Palace often to walk around. ”

Shangguan Beitang looked at Yuzhu and said. He naturally understood that the current Yuzhu was unhappy. It would be great if Xiao Yiqing could accompany her. In this way, his heart can also be comforted.

However, what Shangguan Beitang didn't know was that his proposal was exactly what Xiao Yiqing wanted. His proposal also completely pushed Yuzhu and himself into a dead end.

When Xiao Yiqing heard Shangguan Beitang say this, he was naturally very happy in his heart, and unconsciously a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He put down his face and came to plead guilty with Jing Tiao, in order to make Shangguan Beitang accept himself again regardless of his past suspicions. Now, the king of Beixuan is magnanimous, and that is naturally the best.

"Thanks to the prince for not giving up, and he is willing to regard me as a friend, Yiqing is grateful." Xiao Yiqing dragged his hypocritical face and said.

I have to say that his acting skills are excellent, and he successfully deceived Shangguan Beitang and Yuzhu.

"So good, so good." Shangguan Beitang was naturally smiling. It's just that he was negligent, where can the hatred of taking his wife be so easy to solve. His enthusiasm was nothing more than luring the wolf into the room.

Although Yuzhu was a little embarrassed in her heart, it was just that since the lord had already made the decision, she couldn't say anything more.

Xiao Yiqing looked at Yuzhu and said: "The lower official looked at the princess on the side and frowned slightly, as if she had something on her mind, I wonder if the villain can solve it?" ”

Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, and her sudden concern for Xiao Yiqing made her feel uncomfortable.

She vaguely felt that all this was too strange, and she always felt that it was not so simple for Xiao Yiqing's overtures again, but she couldn't think of what the blame was?

She knew him, he was upright and brave in the past, and he would never disdain to associate with a married woman again.

And now, all this he did, his overtures made her feel an inexplicable panic.

So she hurriedly replied: "There is Lord Lao Xiao who is concerned, and the concubine is fine." She turned her head to Shangguan Beitang again, and said, "Lord Wang, just now I asked the small kitchen to boil the fetal pills, and now it's time to take the medicine, and the concubine will go down first." ”

Shangguan Beitang nodded: "Well, you can go quickly!" After eating, rest for a while, and when the king is free, I will take you to the Hibiscus Garden. ”

"Yes, the concubine is retired." Yuzhu bowed slightly, didn't look at Xiao Yiqing, and withdrew directly from the room.
