"You look up." Gao Cheng mechanically instructed Ah Jiao.

Ah Jiao raised her head and looked up at Lord Lang according to the command. There was a huge pain in her forehead, which was already bruised, and she ignored it. Seeing Gao Cheng, there was no joy or surprise, but an indescribable expression.

"You said she was pregnant?" Gao Cheng stared at Ah Jiao and asked her for confirmation.

"Today, it was in the side hall of the Jiaofang Hall that the imperial doctor ordered the pulse to be diagnosed. A few days ago, the princess was already unwell. "Ah Jiao seized the opportunity to speak and confessed and refused to let go." For some reason, Taiyuan Gong suddenly broke in. The princess did not want to see him. The Duke of Taiyuan did not treat the princess well. ”

Gao Cheng stared carefully into Ah Jiao's eyes.

Then a slave and a maid came out of it. Gao Cheng said that the princess had woken up, and she had been reading the name of the prince just now.

Ah Jiao still knelt on the ground and watched Lord Lang's reflection.

Gao Cheng only ordered to bring the prince Bodhi here. He told Ah Jiao to persuade the princess well, and left.

The courtyard where Princess Rouran Yu Jiulu lived was quiet all night.

Moonlight was tired from horseback riding, so she slept very well all night and woke up very early. When she woke up, it was still dark, and it would be early in the morning. Because I slept well and was in good spirits, I didn't want to sleep anymore, so I got up.

unexpectedly found that Gao Cheng had not returned overnight. Only then did I remember to call Taorui to ask.

Tao Rui had already heard the news clearly. replied that the king and the princess had a very serious dispute last night. Later, it came out that the news was a great event, and the princess was pregnant, and it was already three months. Later, the king went to sleep alone in the study.

Moonlight was really shocked by the news that Yuan Zhonghua was pregnant. She immediately thought of the meeting between Gao Cheng and Yuan Zhonghua in the study.

Speaking of which, she is never depressed. At this time, she suddenly found out that she had been with Gao Cheng for a long time, but she had no news of herself.

I can't think about it, and when I think about it, I look forward to it even more. Especially she doesn't dislike those lively and cute little Langjun and little ladies. Not to mention others, it is Yuan Zhonghua's son Bodhi and Kang Naning's son Asu, she likes it very much.

In the past, she always liked to tease the two little Lang Jun, but now there are a lot fewer opportunities like this, and she really misses these two cute little Lang a little.

Moonlight watched the slave maid deliberately help her comb her hair, then washed and dressed and went out to look for Gao Cheng in the study.

Liu Taozhi was naturally guarding the door of the study for a long time, and when she saw the princess coming, she still refused to let it in.

Moonlight reached out and took her bow and golden pill from the slave's hand, flew up the low wall and concealed it from the window of the house inside, and said, "How dare the slave do this?" Since you dare to stop me, I will shoot the window with this golden pill, and I don't believe that the king himself will not come out. ”

Liu Taozhi has never met such a master, and he really has a headache.

Fortunately, the moonlight was just for show, and had already jumped off the wall and into the courtyard. Regardless of the situation outside, he walked over and into the house. Taorui and her few Rouran slaves were all stopped outside.

Moonlight didn't have any scruples at all, and pushed the door in as if no one was around. While shouting "Zihui", he looked around. Immediately, I saw Gao Cheng lying crookedly on the big bed with his clothes, as if he hadn't slept all night.

Gao Cheng heard the voice early, turned over, saw someone coming in, and asked dimly, "Why is Your Highness here?" ”

Moonlight walked over and sat down on the big bed. She looked at Gao Cheng carefully, although there was only one lamp in the room, it was very dark, but she could still feel that he was in a very bad state, and he was not at all bright, full of haggardness.

"It's a good thing that the princess is pregnant, why is the king unhappy?" The moonlight didn't hide it, and asked directly.

Gao Cheng didn't expect her to be so direct, and seeing that she didn't care much, he suddenly felt a little confused.

"Does the princess think this is a good thing?" He seemed to be asking about the moonlight, and he was asking himself.

"Did you forget what the king had done by himself?" Moonlight looked at him half-jokingly.

Gao Cheng's eyes were staring at the moonlight, and his mind was spinning rapidly. He stood up suddenly, then turned back and sat down on the big bed again.

Moonlight's eyes chased him back and forth.

"Why didn't you stay in the Jiaofang Hall and wait for me yesterday?" Gao Cheng asked suddenly.

His topic changed so quickly that the moonlight didn't reflect it for a while. After understanding, he immediately smiled, "The king doesn't want to think about it, the queen gave birth to a little prince yesterday, and there was chaos in the Jiaofang Palace, what am I going to do there?" Yesterday the weather was good, and I only thought about going out of the city to ride a horse, so I forgot what the king said. "Moonlight doesn't care about authenticity.

"You really don't blame me?" Gao Cheng was a little unsure, was she just because she wanted to go horseback riding? It's not credible.

"Blame the king for what?" Moonlight smiled and asked seriously.

"Blame me for not being able to ask to marry you as a concubine." Gao Cheng cared more than her.

"If I blame you, can you make me a concubine?" Moonlight asked rhetorically.

Gao Cheng didn't answer immediately. He is not the boy he used to be. At that time, he could set up Yang Shunhua as the princess of the world, and he started the idea of abandoning Yuan Zhonghua. The current balance of forces between the several parties is actually a heavy joint in the middle, and there are many support points for each other. Even a temporary disruption of the balance in one inconspicuous place can cause huge shocks and unimaginable consequences.

Moonlight didn't ask any further.

A prince had just been born in the palace, and there was an atmosphere of great joy on the surface. Emperor Yuan Shanjian frequently held reward banquets for this finally obtained concubine. It seems that nothing is more important to him than to give birth to this son. All his thoughts were on his son.

Immediately afterwards, the Taiyuan Mansion also spread the good news: Li Zu'e, the Duchess of Taiyuan, also gave birth to a son. Although the originally stupid Taiyuan Duke is not very eye-catching, his beautiful wife gave birth to a son who looks very good, which provides a good talking point in Yecheng's inner house.

Only the Gao Wangfu was extremely calm.

The princess is pregnant again, which makes the concubines in the back house surprised and secretly jealous. But no one dared to show it openly.

Others are especially good, but Li Changyi, who is a concubine, is anxious.

She thought about it and thought about it, but she didn't understand. That day, she followed Gao Cheng to Yuan Zhonghua's residence. Tui said that it was inconvenient for her to go in, and she did not enter the yard. Gao Cheng was angry and didn't care about her, she had already imagined it.

Later, the king and the princess quarreled badly, and she also knew it, and secretly rejoiced in her heart.

There is no one in the house who does not know. The break between Lord Lang and Master Mother seems to be certain. There was also a lot of rumor in the house.

But what made Li Changyi angry was that Yuan Zhonghua was actually pregnant. How could she have such good luck? This is something she can't look forward to, thinking about day and night, but she can't do anything.

Li Changyi knew in her heart that Gao Cheng was unreliable. If she had a son, although it was said to be the princess's son, she had only given birth to it. But after all, it's better than nothing. If one day, Gao Cheng's status is getting higher and higher, then this son will become more and more valuable to her. Maybe in the future, she will also be the queen mother and the concubine, and she can be regarded as having something to rely on.

But this kind of thing is not up to people. Gao Cheng was indifferent to her, with little grace, and then it was so little that there was almost nothing, and she couldn't think about it.

It's not almost none, it's really not at all.

She thought that Gao Cheng would think of her later, or at least come to visit her. But the strange thing is that Gao Cheng never came to the courtyard where she lived again. She was not called to ask again. It's as if he's forgotten to have her.

When Li Changyi noticed that something was wrong, she was really a little panicked, but she couldn't figure it out.

These days, Gao Cheng actually lives in a simple house and reads in the study most of the time. Li Changyi thought that he would at least rebuke his younger brother Taiyuan Gong Gao Yang. But it was still beyond her expectations. Gao Cheng acted as if this had never happened, and treated Gao Yang as usual. even gave a lot of congratulatory gifts to the Duchess of Taiyuan because she gave birth to a son.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and a brazier has been placed in Gao Cheng's study.

Cui Jishu has a fat body, but he is more afraid of the cold than anyone else. But even he thought it was too hot in the room. He didn't understand why Gao Cheng was so afraid of the cold? And **** is not in good spirits, the only thing to do is to sit and half lean on the big bed crookedly, just read by the light.

And for several days, he only saw Gao Cheng read one book, which is: "The Biography of the Zuo Family in the Spring and Autumn Period".

Cui Jishu's sweat was soaked in his middle coat, so he simply took off his robe by himself, wearing only a middle coat, but he was still wearing a cage crown on his head. He's funny.

walked to the big bed, saw Gao Cheng ignoring him, and came up and sat down. shouted, "Lord Lang? ”

Gao Cheng ignored him, didn't look up, and focused on the book in his hand.

"Lord Lang is about to memorize this article backwards, why do you still read it?" Cui Jishu said urgently.

Gao Cheng raised his head. Seeing that Cui Jishu's white and chubby cheeks were blurred with a layer of pink due to the heat, he looked at him puzzled.

It looks different in Cui Jishu, and Gao Cheng can be described as haggard these days.

"Lord Lang, Murong Xingtai has become tighter and tighter, what does Lord Lang mean?" Cui Jishu lowered his voice.

"What does Hou Jing mean?" Gao Cheng asked lightly.

"Don't be reconciled." Cui Jishu replied.

"Wait." Gao Cheng said vaguely.

"What are you waiting for?" Cui Jishu leaned closer.

"Someone forced me to be Zheng Zhuanggong, and I can't do it if I don't do it." Gao Cheng put down the book, sat up straight, and went to find the teacup.

Cui Jishu was still a little surprised when he heard Gao Cheng finally say this. After hesitating for a long time, he replied, "He can't compare to Uncle Jingcheng." Jiang is a foolish person, and no one will learn from her. ”

Both of them were silent for a while, each drinking tea.

"Lord Lang, you naturally know Uncle Tai's temperament. Gao Renying also knows, better than Lord Lang, and now what he says to Uncle Tai is what it is. Even Yang Zunyan can't compare to him. Not to mention the Grand Governor. In his own right, he held a grudge against the Grand Duke. ”

Gao Guiyan was raised by his brother Gao Yue. I don't know what the reason is, anyway, there is not only no kindness between the two, but a stumbling block. And the feud is getting deeper and deeper.

"If you are unjust, you will collapse." Gao Cheng's lips moved lightly, and a gentle and delicate sentence floated out.

Cui Jishu looked at Gao Cheng a little unfamiliarly. At this time, the sweat on his body was dry, and he suddenly felt cold.

"The king......" he hesitated, "does the king really think so?" ”

"Don't you think so? Do you want me to sit still? Gao Cheng looked at him with a smile and asked.

"What does the king want to do?" Cui Jishu really didn't know, he suddenly remembered, "The majority of the governors are full of bitterness in their hearts, but they are on the right path with Chen Changyou." ”

Gao Cheng smiled, "Changyou is kind. He drank his tea and sighed, "You have to give him a chance, otherwise wouldn't it be a pity?" ”

Who is this "he", Cui Jishu dared to determine after thinking about it.

Gao Cheng got off the big bed with ease, and he looked in a good mood.

"Where is Lord Lang going?" Cui Jishu also got up.

"Do you want to have a daughter?" Gao Cheng suddenly asked him with a smile.

Cui Jishu was completely stunned, not understanding what kind of train of thought this was.

I don't know if I was worried about the eldest princess, or because I was frightened when I saw Lord Lang and my mother arguing like that, Ah Jiao got better quickly.

On the contrary, it was Yuan Zhonghua, who lingered on the sickbed for a few days and did not get better.

It's late autumn, and there are many fallen leaves on the ground every day. Either scorched or withered, making people lament the passage of time.

Gao Cheng stepped on the fallen leaves into the courtyard, and saw the light in the glass window from a distance.

Ah Jiao came out of the house, and was about to see if the eldest princess's medicine was decoctioned, when she suddenly saw Gao Cheng walking in quietly, and she was so frightened that she stopped.

In the past, I was looking forward to Lord Lang coming, but now I think it's better not to come.

Gao Cheng doesn't need to care about Ah Yan's thoughts, he can do whatever he wants. Walking all the way to the house, he asked, "Are you getting better?" ”

After thinking about it, Ah Jiao realized that Lord Lang was actually asking about her injury.

Hurriedly replied, "The slave's injury is not enough to worry about, thank you Lord Lang for your inquiry." ”

Her injuries don't matter, so whose injuries matter?

Gao Cheng didn't think about it, didn't ask much, and went into the house alone.

Ah Jiao originally didn't want to follow in, but after thinking about it, she followed up.

The two slaves in the house were putting Du Hengxiang in the Boshan furnace. Suddenly seeing Lord Lang come in, he was stunned for a moment, and he knelt down tremblingly. When he raised his head, he saw the shadow of Lord Lang.

Gao Cheng has already gone to bed. He remembered that he hadn't smelled Du Hengxiang for a long time.

Ah Yan came in and waited outside with the two slaves.

There was no one in the inner bed, and the bed tent was down. The bed tent embroidered with flowing clouds and curly grass obscured the scene inside.

Gao Cheng walked over, slightly hesitant. Eventually, however, he gently lifted the bed tent and walked in.

Yuan Zhonghua really slept on the couch, she was lying outward, and he could see her slowly open her eyes.

Gao Cheng sat down on the edge of the couch and called softly, "Your Highness." ”

Yuan Zhonghua saw clearly that it was Gao Cheng, she tried her best to get up, lifted the quilt and wanted to go down.

Gao Cheng held her up and stopped her by pressing her shoulders and arms. Puzzled, he asked, "Where is Your Highness going?" ”

Yuan Zhonghua looked up at him and asked, "Isn't the king going to give me to the Duke of Taiyuan?" ”

Gao Cheng's heart was going crazy. The person who made him the most helpless was her.

He held her down and refused to let go, and asked inquiringly, "Are you really willing to go?" ”

"It's just death." Yuan Zhonghua said lightly, and she began to want to stand up again

Gao Cheng pressed her hard motionlessly, "What should I do if Your Highness dies and my daughter dies?" ”

Daughter? Yuan Zhonghua forgot that she was going out. My heart suddenly softened. If she has a daughter...... But it's not something she can decide, and it's not something he can decide.

Yuan Zhonghua came back to his senses, stared at him and saluted, "This is not the king's child. ”

Gao Cheng's face suddenly became gloomy.

"Whose child is that?" He couldn't help but asked.

"Whoever the king says is whoever." Yuan Zhonghua doesn't care about authenticity.

Gao Cheng understood what she meant. He never let go.

Turning his face away, he asked, "Am I not good enough for you?" ”

Yuan Zhonghua's tears poured out. She nodded, "Okay, good, the king is not bad for the concubine, it's too good, it's the concubine herself who doesn't know how to cherish it." ”

Gao Cheng turned his head slowly. He gently wiped away her tears with his fingers.

There is no way to go back to the past, this is a truth that everyone knows. The two of them were only relatively speechless.

In the blink of an eye, it is about to come again, and a year has passed before you know it.

It's finally over. It's been a tough year.

In King Gao's mansion, the princess gradually got better. Lord Lang also deliberately celebrated the princess's pregnancy.

No matter what other people's mood is, it is also a good time to get close to the husband and master when there is such an opportunity, which is better than not even seeing each other in person. If you have some thoughts, it is also a good means to compete for favor by playing singing and dancing at the banquet.

There is no one in the back house who doesn't know, and the first one who wants to compete for favor is Kang Ji. She had been practicing sword dance for quite a long time. is not afraid of the cold and heat, not to mention, even his own son does not care.

No one would have imagined that this orchid from the Western Regions would have such a deep mind.
