originally thought that it was a great joy that she was pregnant with a dragonborn, and both inside and outside the palace should be grateful to her and praise her all the time, after all, now the drought must rely on her to end. That's why she didn't alarm those palace maids, and wanted to hear how they praised herself.

But she never expected to hear such words, especially the ridicule of those palace maids made her blush instantly, and her eyes were already full of anger. And she didn't think it was caused by her inappropriate words and deeds at all, but she stubbornly thought that they were **naked jealousy, so she was so viciously slandered, it's damn extreme!

Huan Pei, who was in charge of serving on the side, also knew that the situation was not good, and he had to stop it as soon as he moved: Niangniang is now pregnant, and she is most afraid of anger and emotional instability.

However, Zhen Ruxue's eyes were gloomy, she grabbed her, raised her hand to signal her not to make a sound, and listened to those palace maids continue to talk. After they laughed for a while, one of them continued:

"I don't know if it's a man or a woman, and I don't feel ashamed to say that there are successors to the Yulin Kingdom, that the drought is about to end, and so on!"

"That's it, it's just that she's pregnant, and I don't see any credit for her, if you talk about credit, she's far worse than our queen's mother!"

"Look at her appearance, what is there like the queen mother? The queen mother is graceful and dignified, noble and elegant, even if she doesn't do anything for three years, it's not her fault, it's for the country of Yulin, no one will blame her!"

"That's it! The queen mother is the one who has made the greatest contribution, otherwise how could the emperor decree that no matter who the crown prince is in the future, the position of the queen mother will never change?

"Of course, the emperor is a good emperor, the queen is a good queen, and the two of them are a match made in heaven. Those other people can't even put it on the table, no matter how many royal heirs they give birth to, it's in vain!"

"She still expects to use this child to take away the phoenix crown of the queen mother?

"But then again, from now on, we have to be very careful, especially when we see that virtuous concubine, we have to hide a little farther, but don't be caught by her again, and say to you with a stomach and say, 'Can you afford to hurt the imperial heir' or something!"

"That's it!"

The others agreed, and laughed again. Zhen Ruxue couldn't listen to it anymore, so she suddenly stood up and rushed over, scolding her with a flushed face: "You cheap minions! You actually say bad things about the palace behind your back, are you impatient?!"

Several people never expected that Fang Cai's conversation would actually fall into Zhen Ruxue's ears, first they were stunned for a while, and then they were so frightened that they got up and knelt down and begged for mercy again and again: "Niangniang spare your life! Niangniang spare your life! The slave doesn't dare anymore!"

In fact, what made Zhen Ruxue most angry was not that these palace maids joked that she held her stomach all day long, for fear that others would not know that she was pregnant with a dragonborn, but that they actually said that she was so much worse than the queen's mother, and that the queen and the emperor were a match made in heaven, which made her unacceptable no matter what!

Originally, she felt that she was too much worse than the queen and was ashamed of herself, but now that she was finally pregnant with a dragonborn, she desperately told herself that she could be on an equal footing with Duanmu Youning from now on, otherwise she would not pretend to be high in front of people, just to let others know that now she and the queen are in the same status, and the two of them are as important to Dongling Guyun!

Unexpectedly, after working hard for a long time, in the eyes of everyone, she is still not as good as Duanmu Youning, and she has directly become the laughing stock of these cheap slaves, how can she bear it?

Under extreme anger, her eyes were red, and she kept sneering: "Spare your life, you slander this palace so much, and you still expect to live? This palace will immediately go to tell Brother Yun and beat you to death!"

After speaking, she turned around and walked away, aggrieved and angry, tears already flowing. In fact, the reason why she values the child in her belly so much is that she didn't think about taking away the position of Duanmu Youning's queen at all, she just wanted to get some psychological balance and let Brother Yun look at her more!

Besides, this child is Brother Yun's flesh and blood after all, and if she can give birth to a child for the man she loves the most, what woman is not happy? What's more, as long as the drought can end because of this, she can be regarded as doing Brother Yun a great favor, and Brother Yun will be even more grateful to her, and of course she will be even happier! As for the people, the country, and so on, she doesn't think about it at all!

In the final analysis, she just hopes that because of this child, Dongling Guyun will get more favor, nothing else matters, and she did get it, so she got a little carried away under the excitement, why was she ridiculed by these people like this?

This was originally a simple wish, but why did it all become a joke later?

Under extreme grievances, she walked faster and faster, and finally simply stumbled and ran. Huanpei's face turned pale with fright, and he kept shouting while chasing: "Niangniang, Niangniang, slow down, be careful of the child, Niangniang......"

However, Zhen Ruxue turned a deaf ear and ran all the way to the imperial study. When she came to the door, she went straight inside, and finally couldn't help crying: "Brother Yun! Brother Yun, I don't! I don't think like that...... Woowoo woo ......"

The guards guarding the door had the intention to stop her, but they were afraid of hurting her, in case they hurt the dragonborn, it would be a great sin that would be impossible to atone! After a moment of hesitation, Zhen Ruxue had already pushed open the door and broke in!

Dongling Guyun, who was reviewing the recital, was naturally taken aback, and when he looked up, he frowned even more when he saw her tear-stained and heartbroken face: "Ru Xue, what's wrong with you?"

Zhen Ruxue was shaky, crying more and more breathlessly: "Brother Yun, I don't have it, I don't think like that......"

Afraid that the child would have any errands, Dongling Guyun had already gotten up, and quickly rushed to her to support her: "Ru Xue, don't panic, say slowly, what's wrong?"

Zhen Ruxue snuggled into his arms, tears already flowing all over her face: "Brother Yun, I really didn't want to snatch the phoenix crown of the queen mother, I was just happy to be pregnant with your child, but they actually said that about me......"

Who are they? Dongling Guyun frowned more and more, and helped her sit down beside her: "Ru Xue, tell me what's wrong?"

But Zhen Ruxue could still speak, and she almost cried so much that she was almost out of breath. Fortunately, at this moment, Huan Pei had already arrived, and first stepped forward to salute: "Slave and maid see the emperor!"

Dongling Guyun glanced at her, his face was a little gloomy: "What the hell is going on? Didn't I want you to take good care of Ru Xue?

"The slave deserves death!" Huan Pei's face turned pale with fright, and he knelt down with a thud.

"You get up first," Dongling Guyun waved his hand coldly, "Say, what happened just now? If it weren't for your responsibility, I wouldn't have done anything to you." ”

Huan Pei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately repeated the discussion of the palace maid he had just heard in the pavilion. However, she subconsciously concealed the second half, and just told Dongling Guyun how the palace maids laughed at Zhen Ruxue for holding her belly all day long, saying that she was showing off everywhere that she was pregnant with a dragonborn, etc., and the palace maids in the back said that the emperor and the queen were a match made in heaven, etc., all of which were omitted.

Because of her heartbreak, Zhen Ruxue already felt dizzy, and she didn't know what Huan Pei said, so she just lay in Dongling Guyun's arms and cried non-stop. And Dongling Guyun's face had already become more gloomy because of Huan Pei's relay, and he gritted his teeth and snorted coldly: "Very good, it seems that their days are too leisurely, and they actually have the kung fu to chew the root of their tongues!

"Yes!"

The guard turned around and retreated, Dongling Guyun's lips condensed, and then said: "Ru Xue, don't worry, I will definitely get justice for you, and let them know what kind of attitude they should have towards their master!"

Zhen Ruxue nodded gratefully: "Thank you, Brother Yun!"

After a while, the guards had already brought all the palace maids who were laughing and talking about Zhen Ruxue behind their backs to the door and came to ask for instructions. Dongling Guyun waved his sleeves, got up and came to the door, and his cold gaze swept left and right: "Just a few of you?"

Several palace maids knew that they were afraid that they would be unable to escape death today, so where could they still speak? They were already so frightened that their faces turned pale, their eyes were dull, and they could only lie on the ground and tremble.

Dongling Guyun sneered faintly: "If you have any grievances, you might as well say it." If it is really excusable, I can open the net. ”

What grievances can there be? It is a fact that they are talking about Zhen Ruxue behind their backs, and Zhen Ruxue has heard it clearly, she must have already cried in front of the emperor, even if they say something, the emperor will not believe it. A few of them were still speechless, and the timid ones were even about to faint.

"Good. Dongling Guyun said lightly, "You also know what the child in Ru Xue's womb means to the entire Yulin Kingdom, and he still dares to talk behind his back and spread rumors, which is really hateful!

A hundred strokes? If this is continued, it will be crippled if it is not dead! After only a few plops, several people collapsed to the ground, and their faces were already a desperate dead gray.

After a while, only the sound of snapping sounded, and then the terrible screams kept coming out, but Dongling Guyun was expressionless.

Zhen Ruxue in the room heard their screams, and only felt extremely happy in her heart: I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, let you say that I am not as good as the queen mother, hum!
