Chapter 55: The Secret
While speaking, Sheng Changning's drooping eyes fell on Sheng Changqiong's lower abdomen, and the child in her belly didn't know how old it was, her lower abdomen was already slightly convex, even if she was wearing a loose dress, she couldn't hide it.
Sheng Changqiong followed her gaze, and her hands subconsciously stroked her lower abdomen, and then she said softly to Sheng Changning: "It's been six months, although the months are enough, but the imperial doctor can't tell if it's a boy or a girl......
After listening to the second half of her sentence, Sheng Changning's brows furrowed slightly, is there any difference between a man and a woman? She thought of the phoenix oak, because of the cold, maybe the phoenix oak couldn't get pregnant......
Sheng Changning looked at Sheng Changqiong, who was stroking her lower abdomen with her eyelashes, her body was full of gentleness and love, and the words she wanted to reprimand in her mouth suddenly choked in her throat, and only spit out a few words, "Eldest princess...... Don't want girls? ”
Sheng Changqiong glanced up at her, her eyes were shocked at first, as if she was a little puzzled by Sheng Changning's sudden question, and then all kinds of emotions in her eyes were mixed, and even Sheng Changning couldn't understand what she was thinking.
After waiting for a while, the palace maids in the pavilion were retreated by Sheng Changqiong with their eyes, and after there was no one else, Sheng Changning saw clearly the woman opposite who was haunted by maternal love, and the bitterness spread in her eyes.
Sheng Changqiong stroked her already bulging lower abdomen through the soft clothes, and she said slowly: "No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, as long as it comes out of my belly, there is no reason why the palace does not like it, but it is not easy for this child to come by, and the prince also has high hopes for him, if he is a small county lord......"
After the words, Sheng Changqiong didn't know how to continue.
Sheng Changning was only puzzled in her heart, from Bai Lu's mouth, she knew that Sheng Changqiong and the Yonghuai King of Jiangbei had only been married for just four years, why did Sheng Changqiong feel that she was too late to conceive in and out of her words?
Moreover, in this Yonghuai Palace, there are no elders or the like pressing on Sheng Changqiong's head. Listening to what Bai Lu said before, the King of Yonghuai is a team that is considerate to Sheng Changqiong, so why is Sheng Changqiong so anxious, afraid that he will not be able to give birth to an heir for the Yonghuai Palace?
"Since King Yonghuai is so good to the eldest princess, and no one else in the palace is forced to ask for it, why should the eldest princess force herself like this?" Sheng Changning pondered and opened his mouth.
Sheng Changqiongfu raised her head again, looking at the ignorant eyes of the girl in front of her, she only sighed in her heart, "You don't understand." It is because the prince treats the palace so well that the palace cannot live up to his expectations in this kind of ability. ”
Sheng Changning was slightly stunned.
She still doesn't understand, isn't the matter of the heir something that a woman can control? How can the world, and even the women themselves, put the blame and fault on the woman?
Since husband and wife are husband and wife, since the two have become one, the things between the two naturally have to go together. But when Sheng Changqiong was accused of having no heirs for many years, why didn't King Yonghuai come out and say a word for his wife?
Sheng Changning suddenly felt that she was concerned, she still felt that Sheng Changqiong was not married high or low, and she was living the ordinary life she dreamed of, but who would have thought that there were so many trivial and disturbing things in this ordinary day.
"You are still young, when you become a relative, you will be able to empathize with the mood of this palace......" Sheng Changqiong looked at her slightly tangled expression, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of her lips, she picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
I don't know if it's because of the bitterness of the years, or if she hasn't tasted the tea in the palace for a long time, and she can taste it again today, and now she feels a lot lighter in her heart.
"Eldest princess, Changqing is presumptuous, and I want to ask the eldest princess to help me with something."
Sheng Changning carefully looked at her expression, and seeing that her face had always been soothing, Sheng Changning's mind moved slightly, and he put out the words that he had been planning for a long time.
Sheng Changqiong listened to what she said, her eyes couldn't help but widen slightly, and then she pondered for a moment before she said: "If you want this palace to say a few words for you in front of the imperial brother and help you get out of the palace, this is really not a difficult thing for this palace." ”
"It's just that this palace always knows, what are you going to do when you go out of the palace? Not to mention, since you can ask to come to this palace, I'm afraid you will go out for more than a while. ”
Sheng Changqiong's tone was firm, and Sheng Changning also smiled slightly, she didn't know much about this sister before, and she didn't know that she was also a thoughtful person.
"The eldest princess is smart." Sheng Changning said bluntly, "Changqing really needs to stay outside the palace for a period of time when he leaves the palace this time, but it is not for his own selfishness. ”
"The eldest princess knows that Princess Yue Feng Li has lived in Dachu for several months."
Sheng Changqiong felt inexplicable, but still replied: "Naturally, I know, when this palace was on the way back to Beijing, I still wanted to meet her, but I didn't know that she left in a hurry yesterday, and she staggered by a day, and she didn't see her face." ”
Talking about Feng Oak, Sheng Changning unconsciously cleaned up her expression, and she continued: "A few days ago, Princess Feng Oak fell into the water, and it was Shen Linzhi, the son of the Shen family in Jiangnan, who rescued her. ”
Hearing her mention this name, Sheng Changqiong's eyes were stunned for a moment, and she muttered in echo, "Jiangnan...... The Shen family? Shen Linzhi......"
Sheng Changning glanced at her, but Sheng Changqiong quickly restrained the strangeness on her face, "What are you talking to this palace for?" Didn't you want to say that Shen Yushi had already made a marriage with Princess Yue? This matter has been spread in Shengjing City, and the palace heard about it as soon as he returned. ”
Sheng Changqiong's speed of speech was a little fast, Sheng Changning keenly caught her strangeness, and she was a little puzzled, but she still finished speaking, "The eldest princess doesn't know, there is indeed another secret in this matter." Shen Yushi was promoted by His Majesty at the right time before Princess Feng Oak fell into the water, and then he rescued Princess Feng Oak, as His Majesty's minister of the humerus in the court, and married Yue, no matter whether it was up or down the Great Chu, or the Yue people did not dare to discuss what was wrong. ”
"If the matter comes to this, it can be considered a good talk, but Changqing went to the princess's bedroom after Princess Feng Oak's accident, and heard the imperial doctor mention that Princess Feng Oak was cold due to falling into the water, and I am afraid that she will not be able to get pregnant for life......"
Sheng Changqiong was shocked, "What?!" ”
She is now pregnant and about to become a mother, and she can best understand the difficulty of a woman's infertile body.
After his heart slowly calmed down, Sheng Changqiong asked, "Does the imperial doctor have any way to heal, or...... It's okay to put it on hold. ”
She watched Yue Guo be strong and rude, and she also understood the importance of Feng Oak to Chu and Yue.
If Feng Li went back and complained to Yue Jun, with Yue Jun's impulsive temperament, wouldn't he have ruined the friendship between the two countries that had been established with great difficulty?
