Chapter Twenty-Eight: Side Concubine, Peace

Early the next morning, Mu Kexian was called up by Shui Xiu. I was about to fall asleep very late last night, and I got up earlier than usual this morning, Mu Kexian's face couldn't hide the paleness, and she was startled when she saw Shui Xiu.

"Mother, why do you look so bad?" As he spoke, he was about to go out, "The slave and maid went and called the imperial doctor." ”

Mu Kexian took Shui Xiu's hand and rubbed her brows with her other hand, "I'm fine, it's just that I didn't sleep well last night, I'll just come back to make up for some sleep." ”

Shui Xiu wanted to speak and stopped, but looking at Mu Kexian's appearance, he didn't say anything more.

"The slave will give you a little more powder and cover it up."

"Hmm." Mu Kexian was very tired, and her answer was weak. If it weren't for today's occasion, she would have turned her head and fallen asleep in bed.

Because of his lack of energy, Mu Kexian specially used more when he had breakfast, otherwise if he was unwell in front of everyone, it would leave people with a handle.

"Niangniang, Concubine Xia and Concubine Lian have come to say goodbye."

"Let them wait outside first, and I'll go over when I'm done."

"Yes, sissy."

Outside the Fangyi Palace, Lian Xuerou and Xia Weiran stood with their heads down, waiting for Mu Kexian to summon them in.

"Two side concubines, my mother is having dinner, please go to the main hall to rest first, and the princess will arrive later.

"Thank you for the communication."

Even Xue Rou secretly looked at Xia Weiran, she was really a beauty, not much better than the crown princess. No wonder she was able to attract the prince to her house on the first day, and it seemed that he was also a strong opponent.

Compared to Lian Xuerou's sneaky look, Xia Weiran stood frankly, not caring about Lian Xuerou's gaze.

"Concubine Xia is a real beauty, my sister I am ashamed of myself." Lian Xuerou saw that Xia Weiran didn't speak, so she spoke first.

Xia Weiran only then moved her gaze to Lian Xuerou, Lian Xuerou walked in a delicate style today, and there was almost no powder on her face, but it was very commensurate with the appearance of her little jasper.

Because Xia Weiran is older, even Xuerou called her sister.

"Even the side concubine is beautiful and picturesque."

Xia Weiran is not a lively person, and she usually doesn't get along with people. Even Xue Rou saw that Xia Weiran had no intention of talking to her more, and she no longer stirred up topics, and no one wanted to use her hot face to stick to other people's cold butts.

The two were speechless all the way, and when they reached the main hall, they just sit, occasionally taking small sips of tea in their cups.

When they came, Mu Kexian's breakfast was almost gone, but she had re-touched her makeup, which delayed her for some time.

By the time Mu Kexian came out, it was not too early, and it was time to leave for Zhongjing Palace.

"The two side concubines, Niangniang said, it's not too early, so let's go directly to Zhongjing Palace to ask for peace."

When Lian Xuerou and Xia Weiran came out, they saw Mu Kexian slowly walking out of the room, although she was pregnant and her figure was slightly raised, she couldn't hide Mu Kexian's delicate face. In addition, Mu Kexian's makeup today is gorgeous, which makes Mu Kexian even more beautiful.

Lian Xuerou secretly rejoiced in her heart, fortunately, her makeup today was another style, although she didn't want to admit it, but if she collided with Mu Kexian, who would see her.

In fact, Mu Kexian didn't really want to wear such a heavy makeup, since she was pregnant, she was afraid that these rouge gouaches would not be good for the child, although the doctor repeatedly assured that these were fine, but she was still not at ease, so she never applied powder. But I didn't rest well last night, and my face today couldn't be suppressed without heavy makeup, so I had to let Shui Xiu dress up like this.

Along the way, the three of them were in a strange calm, and Mu Kexian didn't want to deal with these two people at all, so he didn't bother to speak. Xia Weiran didn't want to speak, her temperament was like this. And Lian Xuerou kept in mind her role setting today, and she was a side concubine who stayed alone in the empty room and didn't sleep all night. So, no one spoke, and in short, the atmosphere was very strange. 、

Mu Kexian didn't want to put on a shelf of a housewife and establish her majesty. The crown princess is the crown princess, and in the hierarchical palace, no one dares to be disrespectful to herself. And she had planned to treat these two side concubines as air, just like the princess concubine who had long been forgotten by her.

When she arrived at Zhongjing Palace, Mu Kexian knelt down first and saluted, and the two side concubines knelt down behind her.

"Greetings to the Queen Mother."

"Hurry up." Before Mu Kexian knelt down, she was helped up by Mama Gui beside the queen.

However, the two side concubines actually knelt down.

"Concubine Xia, Concubine Lian, see Queen Mother, Queen Mother Wanfu Jin'an."

"Get up." The queen's tone was light, and she couldn't hear joy or anger.

Mu Kexian only recognized who was who it was when they asked for peace to report to their home. I should have met with them before saying goodbye, but I didn't have time, so I came directly to say goodbye. It was Mu Kexian just now, who really didn't know the identities of the two of them.

"When you enter the East Palace, you must behave in a standardized manner, and look like a prince and a concubine. If the palace finds signs of jealousy, the palace will definitely punish it severely. ”

"Follow the teachings of the Queen."

"The crown princess is pregnant, you must know how to relieve the worries of the crown princess, not increase the troubles in vain, you know?" If the queen's last sentence was a routine, then at this time it was completely selfish.

Mu Kexian didn't make a sound, just sat on the stool and slowly drank red dates and wolfberry tea, I heard that this is very beneficial for pregnant women.

Mama Gui took out two boxes and handed them to Concubine Xia and Concubine Lian respectively.

"This is a little bit of the heart of this palace."

"Thank you for the reward."

Mu Kexian then remembered that she didn't seem to have rewarded them yet, and she didn't want to keep silent, but said to the queen mother with a smile, "The queen mother reminded me that the sons haven't prepared gifts for the two younger sisters yet?" ”

Mu Kexian looked at them embarrassedly, "Please don't blame the two younger sisters, I got up early today, and I completely forgot about it, and sure enough, Xianxian still didn't think about it as thoughtfully as the queen mother." ”

I have to say that Mu Kexian is still a master in coquettishness, and she explained things clearly in a few words, and by the way, she also praised a wave of queen mothers.

The queen said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, you can give them back when you go back." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"

Mu Kexian was a little surprised when she heard the voice, the prince should have just come down from the court at this time. Isn't it very satisfied with Concubine Xia, afraid that she will make things difficult for her, so she came to support her?

Lian Xuerou was overjoyed, this was the first time she had seen His Royal Highness the Prince, and she hoped that she could leave a deeper impression.

When Qi Morui came in, except for the queen mother, everyone else stood up and prepared to salute. Only Mu Kexian was supported by Qi Morui as soon as he stood up.

Unexpectedly, Mu Kexian not only was not grateful to herself, but also glared at herself while everyone was not paying attention. I heard that Mu Kexian was here to ask for peace in the queen mother, so I didn't even go to the study, and came to pick up Mu Kexian back to the East Palace first. This has to reflect on what he did to make Mu Kexian unhappy, could it be that he stayed in Xia Weiran's room last night, and he has to wait to go back and explain that Xia Weiran already has someone else in her heart, and she will not spoil her.

"See His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Xia Weiran and Lian Xuerou were slightly blessed.

Qi Morui nodded in response, "No courtesy." ”

Qi Morui took advantage of the situation to wrap his arms around Mu Kexian's waist and gently pinched Mu Kexian's waist. The pregnancy is getting longer and longer, only five months old, and Mu Kexian's waist hurts from time to time. And Mu Kexian often practiced dancing when she was a child, and it is estimated that her waist was not good, and she had back pain when she was not very old.

Mu Kexian said that it is false not to be moved, if you have a husband who remembers your small details all the time and is considerate to you, it must be a very happy thing. However, this husband has more than one concubine, and there will be more in the future.

"Why did Rui'er come here at this time?"

"I heard that the queen mother is very lively here, so I thought about coming to the queen mother here for lunch, the queen mother won't disagree, right?" Qi Morui joked.

The queen mother smiled from ear to ear, her son was getting busier and busier, and he rarely had time to eat with him, so she naturally couldn't ask for it.

"What else are you polite here, Queen Mother?"

As he spoke, he said to the two people below, "Okay, you two can go back first." Remember who you are, and don't do anything that dishonors the royal face. ”

Even Xue Rou didn't even say a word to the prince, and was urged out of Zhongjing Palace by the queen. But there was no choice but to leave with Xia Weiran.

As soon as the two left, Mu Kexian began to break free from Qi Morui's hand, unwilling for him to hug him.

The queen mother looked at the interactive little couple with a smile, and naturally knew that Mu Kexian was not really angry.

It's just a tantrum.

Qi Morui's strength is beyond Mu Kexian's strength, pulling Mu Kexian and walking out, and remembering to protect Mu Kexian's stomach.

"Queen Mother, Erchen will take Xian Xian to the Imperial Garden for a stroll first, and then come back later."

The queen waved her hand, "Go ahead, coax Xian Xian well." ”

Mu Kexian was forced to follow outside, still unhappy.

"What's wrong, still not happy?"

Mu Kexian didn't make a sound, and knew that she had misunderstood Qi Morui just now, but she was a little embarrassed to coax herself like this.

"Didn't you promise me to tell me if you were upset?"

"I thought you came here for Concubine Xia's mother."

Qi Morui gently flicked Mu Kexian's head with his fingers, "Which little conscienceless am I doing this for, don't you know?" “

Mu Kexian buried her head in Qi Morui's arms, "I'm so afraid, if you have someone else, you won't like me." ”

"No, huh?" Qi Morui touched Mu Kexian's head, "And nothing happened last night, Concubine Xia has someone she likes in her heart, and I only found out after investigating." ”

"Ah, then she ......"

Mu Kexian has some sympathy for this woman, she has her own beloved, but she can't be together, and she is married to someone else, how cruel this is to her.

"What about her lover?"

"It's no longer there, I died in the last battle between the Northwest and the Yi people."

Mu Kexian felt sorry for Xia Weiran very much, such a girl must be kind-hearted.
