Volume 1: The Palace's Storm Chapter 54: Tranquility and Glory

Lu Ziyue looked at Xu Qinghan's satisfied appearance so quickly, and her mood was a little better, she reached out and touched her belly: "How old is the child?" ”

"It's been about six or seven months, and the stable women in the family have already begun to prepare for the birth, but I am very panicked, and I always feel that the birth of this child may not be so smooth." Xu Qinghan felt that he was familiar with Lu Ziyue, so he no longer called him a concubine.

Her eyes became sad again: "I'm not afraid of your jokes, princess, I always dream these nights, I dreamed that I suffered a lot when I gave birth, and I also dreamed that I was weak after giving birth, and the prince said that I couldn't raise the child, so I took the child to the side concubine to raise, I kept begging the prince in my dream, but the prince ignored me, and he also said that it was my own fault that I couldn't raise a child, and the side concubine was already helping me make up for my mistakes." ”

Xu Qinghan felt that her head hurt a lot when she said this, and Lu Ziyue and Ying Zhirou didn't expect that she would have so many thoughts in her heart, so they immediately comforted her.

Ying Zhirou's face was full of disapproval: "What do you think about on weekdays?" You are the concubine carried in from the main gate by the king of Anyang, and now there is your name on the jade plate of the sect, as long as you don't do anything wrong in this life, the princess's position will be yours for the rest of your life, no matter how much the concubine wins the favor of the prince, she is just a concubine, and there has never been a reason for the concubine to raise the children of the main room. ”

"Mrs. Shangguan is right, you just tighten your own nerve strings too tightly on weekdays, and now it's hard to relax to have these strange thoughts, you don't want to think about it, King Anyang is not a person who is greedy for beauty, isn't the huge Anyang Royal Mansion now only you two women? So, you have to think more about when King Anyang was good to you, and you have to think more about how you will raise the child in this belly after he is born, but you must not have these strange thoughts anymore. Lu Ziyue also looked at her with some hatred.

It is said that pregnant women always have some strange thoughts in their hearts, she thought that this statement was nonsense, after all, she also has a child in her belly, but she has always lived a very easy life, but now she sees Princess Anyang, only to know that what the ancients said is true.

Xu Qinghan knew that what the two of them said was very reasonable, but no matter how clear she was, there was no way for her to suppress the fear in her heart.

These thoughts would enter her mind uncontrollably after nightfall, and she could not suppress their appearance, so she could only suffer from them.

Her face became more and more ugly, and Lu Ziyue didn't have any relaxed mood, she pushed the pastries that were still hot in front of her in front of the two of them: "Don't talk about these unhappy things, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, you may have these confused thoughts when you are under pressure for a while, take a good rest on the Lingshan, ease your spirit, maybe you can have a good rest slowly, try the pastries, just made in the small kitchen." ”

"I've long heard that the chefs in the Princess Regent's Mansion are first-class, but I've never had a chance to taste it, but now I'm blessed." Ying Zhiru smiled and picked up the nearest pastry to her and fed it to Xu Qinghan, who still had a sad face on her face, she said, "Taste this pastry, it tastes very sweet." ”

Xu Qinghan turned his head sideways and glanced at Ying Zhirou, and then took a bite of the pastry.

Her appearance like this also proves that she is not as sad as before, Ying Zhirou sighed before talking about the second thing that came here today: "I just received a message from the prince today, saying that he is going to invite us to a banquet on this spiritual mountain, and the time is set for tonight, I feel a little anxious, and I haven't heard you talk about this matter when I came before, so I came to ask, what kind of banquet is this banquet?" ”

"The prince wants to have a banquet?" Lu Ziyue shook his head, his face was also a little surprised, "I haven't heard of this matter, and he didn't tell me about it when I had dinner with the prince yesterday, maybe it was decided temporarily, but there are other dignitaries and dignitaries on this spiritual mountain besides us, if I remember correctly, Ning Guogong and his granddaughter seem to be on this spiritual mountain now." ”

When she thought of this, her face was a little sad: "I heard that Ning Guogong is not easy to get along with, and his granddaughter is also very arrogant, if you want to have a banquet, you will inevitably invite them together, but I am afraid that the situation will be a little difficult to control at that time." ”

Ying Zhirou also agreed with Lu Ziyue's statement, she bent her index finger and lightly buckled the table, as if she was thinking of some way to deal with it, but her eyes suddenly opened as soon as she narrowed, and then looked at Xu Qinghan who was eating pastries, her eyes lit up: "If I remember correctly, your family is related to that Ningguo Mansion, and that arrogant granddaughter seems to be calling you aunt according to her seniority." ”

Xu Qinghan didn't expect to talk about her, she put down the half-eaten pastry in her hand and nodded: "That granddaughter of Ningguo Mansion is not easy to get along with, if I remember correctly, the name seems to be Ning Jingrong, their family has withered in her blood, and only gave birth to a girl, so the whole family has high hopes for her, and the love is tight, Ning Guogong even gave her this name when she was full moon, hoping that she can enjoy endless glory and wealth in this life." ”

Lu Ziyue nodded: "It's the old man who has put a lot of effort into it, but it is inevitable, only this girl will inevitably make a lot of plans for her future husband, if she can find a good husband, not to mention, the glory of this Ningguo Mansion in this life is preserved, just this little granddaughter can be regarded as preserving the future days." ”

Xu Qinghan laughed sarcastically when he heard this: "But how can there be such a good thing in this world, and I want the glory of the family, and I want my granddaughter to be happy and healthy for a lifetime, heh, this person's heart is not enough to swallow like a snake here, but it is directly revealed in their Ningguo Mansion, but it is also because a younger brother of my mother's family married the sister of this Ningning Rong's father, so she called me an aunt." ”

Xu Qinghan seemed to look down on Ningguo Mansion and Ning Jingrong very much in her words, but Lu Ziyue never liked to get involved in the affairs of these wealthy compounds, and she didn't pay much attention to it, just when she felt hungry and was about to pass the meal, Xiao Qi suddenly walked in from the door with beans, and she still had a trace of sadness on her face.

It's just that the melancholy disappeared as soon as he saw that there were other people in the gazebo, and was replaced by the same gentle smile as ever.

She stepped forward quickly, took a few steps, and saluted with Douzi.

"Xiao Qi has seen Princess Niangniang, Mrs. Shangguan, and Princess Anyang."

After she finished saluting, she was pulled to sit beside her by Ying Zhirou: "I saw that you were in a hurry when you came in, but what do you want to find the princess?" ”

Xiao Qi and Ying Zhirou have a good relationship, and she saw that the few people sitting here were not big mouths, so she showed her sadness again: "The prince sent someone to inform him that a banquet was going to be held this morning, and asked Xiao Qi to spend some effort to prepare, this turned out to be not a difficult thing, Xiao Qi didn't take it to heart, but in addition to the two princes, two princesses, a general and the general's wife, there are other dignitaries and dignitaries on this spiritual mountain, if you want to hold a banquet, it is inevitable to send them an invitation." ”

Xiao Qi said this, there was a trace of resentment on his face: "The rest of the people are just that, after I sent the invitation over with kind words, they also accepted it with a smile, but it was the little county lord of the Ningguo Mansion, not only did she not accept the invitation, but also directly said that with her grandfather's status in Shen Xie, she should ask the prince or the princess to go over and send the invitation in person, I was a little uncomfortable at that time, although this Ning Guogong has made many contributions to the Shen State, but once a son of heaven and a courtier, no matter how arrogant he is, he should be a talent with his tail between his legs now." ”

"You're right, that little county lord is indeed a little too arrogant, and wants Bengong to deliver the invitation in person, and she doesn't think carefully about whether the face on her face is so big?" Lu Ziyue sneered without a good face, she touched the bun on her head, and looked at Xiao Qi, who was still a little annoyed, "You don't have to be so angry, she has been arrogant and arrogant since she was a child because her family can be her solid backing in front of others, and no matter how arrogant she is, she has a way to deal with it, but the people she provokes today are different, Xiao Qi is a serious lady in our Regent Palace, and it is already to give them face by personally sending them invitations." ”

Ying Zhirou also comforted Xiao Qi: "The princess regent is right, you don't need to be like that stinky little girl, but that girl is really not very smart in this matter, so be it." ”

Ying Zhirou looked at Lu Ziyue and Xu Qinghan: "I don't know if the two princesses still have anything to do?" If not, it's better to call the little county lord today to give her a long look, and let her know that some people are not so easy to offend. ”

After she said that, she looked at Xu Qinghan again: "You are not in a good mood today, take this opportunity to find her bad luck." ”

Xu Qinghan also felt that this method was very good, so he also looked at Lu Ziyue expectantly, and now he was waiting for her to come up with an idea.

Lu Ziyue was also a little stunned when she saw this situation, although she didn't like that Ning Jingrong very much, but she didn't plan to trouble others at this time, but what Ying Zhirou said just now also made sense, left and right were boring, and Ning Guogong was not a character who could not really offend.

She thought about the stakes for a while and nodded, "In this case, when I finish breakfast, let's go together." ”
