Dugu Wanrong was worried because the prince did not return to the East Palace last night, and the fetus in her belly was moving again, and she fell asleep at the fourth watch of the day, who knew that she was woken up by the palace maid Ying'er of Ning Xiangxuan's foreman in the morning. Hearing that it was Liu Cairen who came to ask for peace, Wanrong was a little puzzled: Liu Caicai and Wang Cairen were here yesterday to accompany her for most of the day, why did they come again early this morning?

Wanrong has heard it said that the Yang family of the former crown princess has a grudge against Queen Zhang, and after Queen Zhang entered the middle palace, she was forced to divorce the prince, and she did not know what to do after leaving the palace; When the rebels captured the capital, most of the concubines in the East Palace died in the military disaster, therefore, there were not many concubines in the East Palace, before Wanrong and Jing Xuan entered the palace, only Wang and Liu were not high-ranking talents, Wang was originally the maid in front of the Yang family, and although Liu was born in a family of eunuchs, he has always been low-key, and he seems to be just a follower of Wang's in front of everyone. Although Jing Xuan is shrewd and accessible, he never likes to ask about trivial affairs, and he is graceful and favored by the prince, and his position is high, so he is naturally in charge of the affairs in the palace. Wang Cairen saw that Wanrong's limelight overshadowed Jingxuan, and often took Liu Cairen to Ning Xiangxuan to sit and sit without incident, and the three of them were very familiar with each other.

Wanrong only felt that her body was lazy, she didn't want to move, and she thought that Liu Cairen was very cautious and easy-going, and she didn't like to be careful like Wang Cairen, so she ordered Ying'er to invite her directly into the dormitory.

Liu Cairen walked in with a panicked face, unusually, and didn't care about Wanrong Shang sitting on the bed as if he was awake, so he shouted loudly with a crying voice: "Niangniang, something is wrong, Wang Cairen has been arrested." ”

Wanrong was startled, couldn't help but sit up straight, forcibly endured a wave of nausea that rushed up from her chest, and asked in a trembling voice, "What did you say?" Who arrested Wang Cairen? ”

Liu Cairen was obviously frightened, trembling all over, and said intermittently: "I don't know who it seems to be the forbidden army."

Wanrong steadied her mind, and while inviting Liu Cairen to sit down and watch tea, she called Wang Bao'er, the eunuch on duty outside the palace, to come in, and told him to go to the inner square to ask what was going on. Wang Bao'er has been transferred to Ning Xiangxuan on an errand since the trustee, and she has been waiting very hard in front of Wanrong. Although Wanrong thought that he had some power, she saw that he was usually quite well-behaved, and she was quite familiar with the rules in the palace, and gradually often assigned him some important errands. Wang Bao'er ran back after about half an hour, with a somewhat panicked look on his face, and his heart sank when he looked at it gracefully.

Wang Bao'er knelt on the ground, and without waiting for Wanrong to ask, he said a few pieces of news that made everyone present stunned one after another like pouring beans from a bamboo tube: at noon on the first day of the new year, there was a poisoning and rebellion incident at the imperial banquet in the Linde Hall of Daming Palace; The main culprit of the rebellion is Wang Cairen; The crown prince has petitioned to be deposed.

Wanrong's chest throbbed when she heard this, her eyes went dark, and she almost fainted. After a long time, she came back to her senses, she struggled to get up, and asked Liu Caidao in a hissing voice: "Sister has been in the palace for a long time, you tell me, what should I do now?" ”

Liu Cairen was so frightened that his face was pale, he just lowered his head and sobbed, how could he still say a word?

Wang Bao'er was still sober at this time, he saw Wanrong's eyes were dull, and his mind was in turmoil, so he hurriedly picked up a bowl of ginseng soup and sent it to Wanrong's hand, and said in a low voice: "Niangniang and suppress the shock, now there is still Jing Concubine Niangniang in the palace, Niangniang might as well find her to sum up, it is better than being in a hurry here." ”

Wanrong seemed to be a drowning man who suddenly grabbed a rope, and there was a glimmer of light in front of her, regardless of the heaviness of her body, she had finished simply grooming, and under the guidance of Wang Bao'er, she went straight to the stable.

Jing Xuan let Wanrong into the room and sat down, and after listening to Wang Bao'er's report, she was not as flustered as Wanrong, and only said coldly to Wang Bao'er: "Is this how you are on an errand?" Niangniang is having a body, no matter how big the matter is, I don't know what to hide, along the way, in case there is a mistake, how can you afford it? ”

Wang Bao'er was already ashamed in her heart, and when she heard this, she was even more speechless, so she had to stand aside with her face flushed and her head down. Wanrong saw that Jing Xuan blamed Wang Bao'er, so she defended him: "Sister, don't blame him, you have to know the big things sooner or later." My sister didn't think it was abrupt to come here, but she really lost her mind in her heart, so she came to ask her sister for an idea. ”

Jing Xuan took Wanrong's hand and said, "Since you and I are destined to serve the same husband, we are like sisters, how can we repay you." It's just that my sister is pregnant, don't be anxious in your heart and hurt the fetus. Now the plan, you and I just need to stay in peace, waiting for the news of the prince, as long as the prince is safe and sound, no matter what, don't worry too much. As he spoke, he instructed Jinping to come to Xing'er for questioning.

In an instant, Jinping suddenly reported that the Xing'er people were gone. Jing Xuan was helpless, so he had to ask Wang Bao'er to wait in the inner fang, once the prince had new news, he would report it quickly, and said to Wanrong with a smile: "Since my sister is here, don't rush back, at this time, let's gather in one place, Lala talk, and my heart will be lighter." ”

Since the prince returned to the palace, she has been favored and graceful, and there have been some dislikes between the two of them. Although Jing Xuan does not compete with Wanrong for favor, as soon as Wanrong thinks of Jing Xuan in her heart, she faintly feels uncomfortable and always wants to avoid meeting her. In the past few months, the two have become increasingly estranged, far less close than when they first entered the palace.

Wanrong saw that Jing Xuan was in danger, and she was kind enough to keep herself, so she apologized a little in her heart, so she stood up, gave Jing Xuan a salute, and said: "My sister is a person who has never seen the world, and since my sister said so, then my sister is better to be respectful than to obey." A few days ago, my sister gave birth to a princess, and my sister never came to visit, so I asked my sister for forgiveness. ”

Jing Xuan hurriedly got up and returned the salute, and said with a smile: "My sister is polite." My sister was greedy for the snow, so she had a miscarriage and almost lost her life, and my sister was pregnant, so she should pay extra attention. My sister gave me a lot, and my sister was grateful, and my sister came today, and I just thanked me in person. ”

Although Jing Xuan was also anxious in her heart, she took into account Wanrong's feelings, so she deliberately pulled the topic away, picked some private words between her daughter's family to talk to Wanrong, and told many things that should be paid attention to before giving birth, and the two chatted until noon.

Wang Bao'er, who was sent to the inner square to inquire about the news, was still missing, but Lai Xing'er came back.
