Chapter 77: Birth

The lavish mansion was silent, and a woman dressed as a maid walked between the attics, her eyes hollow and thin, her pale face reflecting the night, her clothes blown up by the evening breeze, and at first glance she thought it was a ghost.

From time to time came the men's cries of pain from the inner courtyard, sometimes supplication, sometimes threatening, as if they were being tortured. When the woman heard this, she paused, then continued to move forward with a sneer and tears, muttering in a low voice as she walked: "Chu Zirui, this is your retribution, you deserve to be tortured like this for the rest of your life." ”

There was no one around, so she easily went around to the dog hole in the courtyard on the side, leaned over and drilled over, the second princess and concubine Yu became famous, which was the most humble thing she had ever done in her life, but at this time, she felt that it was the most pleasant thing for her since she married into the second prince's mansion.

got into the carriage that Yu Zhu had prepared for her early, galloped all the way, got off at the side gate of the palace, and entered the Chaohui Palace with the guide.

In the hall, Yu Zhao and Yu Zhu sat in the hall, silent, until Zhuo Yao came to report: "Niangniang, someone is here." ”

Yu Zhao nodded and ordered, "Bring it in." ”

The lights and candles are not dim, but I don't know if the face of the second princess is too terrifying, and in this bright place, it also looks a little terrifying. After coming in, he knelt down straight, didn't salute, and went straight to the point: "I am willing to expose the various crimes of the Fuguo Mansion and Concubine Shen, and only ask Concubine Chen to break Yu Yao's body into ten thousand pieces!" ”

Yu Zhao nodded: "There is plenty of time, you say it carefully, when the charges are confirmed, I will keep my promise to hand over Yu Yao to you for disposal." ”

That night, the door of the Chaohui Palace was closed, and it was not until the time passed that it was opened, and Zhuo Yao went out quietly with two people, all the way to the side palace gate, the movement was small, and no one noticed.

Yu Zhao soaked in the water, closed his eyes and relaxed, and sorted out the news he got today. It wasn't until he had a headache that he got up, and sent the palace people to go into the dormitory to rest, walking in the dark corridor, and suddenly being hugged from behind, Yu Zhao was startled, and then calmed down. "Your Highness is more naΓ―ve than Ziyi."

Chu Zikai ignored it and complained in her ear: "I've been waiting for you for so long, I'll wait for me to come over today." ”

Dodging his kiss, Yu Zhao turned around and said with some concern: "Yu Zhu knows that my identity is fake. ”

Chu Zikai didn't seem to care at all, it seemed that he had known it a long time ago, and comforted her: "Don't worry, I won't let people hurt you." ”

didn't have a chance to think about his words, and in the next second, Yu Zhao was kissed by him again, and after Chu Zikai let go of her, he told softly: "Father said that after the Fuguo Mansion is suppressed, go to Luoyuan Palace, prepare to avoid the title of Concubine Chen, I will go with me in the name of running an errand, it is close to Guiren Lake, we will go to worship the lake spirit, only you and me." ”

This is what both of them expected, but they didn't see a little joy in Yu Zhao's eyes, Chu Zikai was a little worried, and before he could ask a question, he was hugged by Yu Zhao first. "Your Highness, I'm so happy." Tears flowed out with the words, like crying with joy, only Yu Zhao knew that these tears were urged by pain.

Chu Zikai looked at her again, saw that there was nothing abnormal, put down his heart and secretly said that he was too careful, picked her up by the waist, and said as he walked: "Father still likes you very much, the order of the Son of Heaven has been held by the Son of Heaven for generations, and it has not been taken back, but it is not a recognition of your identity as the crown princess." ”

Yu Zhao lowered his eyes, listened to what he said, and laughed at himself in his heart, Crown Princess, I am afraid that this creation will never be worthy of this creation in this life, the so-called Son of Heaven Decree is just a guarantee given by Emperor Yuan to make him obedient.

However, Yu Zhao could only hold the pain in his heart, and he didn't dare to show the slightest flaw in the face of the person he wanted to talk to the most, and the feeling of depression was overwhelming.

The two hugged each other and fell asleep, the first ray of sunlight in the morning, Yu Zhao got up and rubbed his eyes, and was pulled into his arms by Chu Zikai: "Zhaozhao, today is my birthday." ”

Looking up, you can see his handsome and unparalleled face, which is more and more dazzling against the sun, Yu Zhao put his hands around his neck, extremely reverent: "His Royal Highness the Prince, you are a hundred years old." ”

It's not as thunderous and unrealistic as Chitose Banzai.

Live a long life and live a worry-free life.

The most inconspicuous but most sincere blessing just reached Chu Zikai's heart, and he hugged her and responded while kissing: "Zhaozhao has always been by his side, and this wish will come true." ”

Even if it can't, Yu Zhao panicked, pretended to be shy and hid herself in the quilt, outside Chu Zikai smiled and coaxed her out, Yu Zhao hid in this darkness, and finally found an opportunity to release the uncontrollable tears.

Chu Zikai's birthday banquet was set in Kyushutai, compared with the state banquet, it was not lively, and he only invited the four female dependents of the East Palace and the concubines of the harem to have a small gathering, and it was over.

At the banquet, the concubines toasted one by one, and when only Yu Zhao was left, Chu Zikai took the lead in holding the wine glass and waiting, Yu Zhao said coldly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, drinking hurts your body, please forgive me for not being weak and unable to drink, so I will be exempt from this false courtesy." ”

These words seem to be afraid of hurting his body, but in fact, they remind Chu Zikai that this heart-warming concern is not understood by others, and he only feels that Concubine Chen does not give Chu Zikai face. But the two have the same mind, Chu Zikai was warmed by this secret care, and put down the wine glass and didn't touch it again.

With Yu Zhao's words, everyone didn't dare to persuade them to drink anymore, Zhanxiao was drunk, Yu Zhao looked at her a little strangely, she looked at her, the beautiful smile was gone, and even some looked like she wanted to cry, and complained to her loudly: "Concubine Chen, I'm so sad!" ”

This shout drew everyone's attention to her, Yu Zhao and Chu Zikai looked at each other in surprise, Chu Zikai nodded quietly, and told Yu Zhao that the conjecture in his heart was true.

Zhanxiao is indeed unhappy with Yinghuayi, but why, Chu Zikai doesn't know. Afraid that she would spit out the truth after drinking, Yu Zhao hurriedly stepped down from the table and grabbed her, and said to Emperor Yuan: "Your Majesty, Zhan Liangdi is drunk, I will take her to the back room to sober up." ”

Others only thought that Chu Zikai's favorite Zhan Liangdi was unhappy with him, and wanted to find Yu Zhao to complain. This is just an ordinary trivial matter, and everyone didn't pay attention to it, Emperor Yuan waved his hand: "Go ahead, talk to her." ”

Yu Zhao helped Zhanxiao to leave, and Concubine Shen also took advantage of her physical discomfort to say goodbye first.

After sending the girl who followed her to the imperial pharmacy to get the sobering soup, Yu Zhao helped Zhanxiao into the side room with difficulty, wiped her tears, and asked, "Are you uncomfortable?" ”

Zhan Xiao was so drunk that his eyes were foggy, and he took Yu Zhao's hand and cried: "Niangniang, Ying Huayi painted foreign women, and he was disheveled." ”

Yu Zhao remembered that he had accidentally seen those Western paintings in the palace art gallery, and they were indeed blonde with blue eyes and arms and legs.

Thinking that this little princess of Burning Summer is the first time to see it, it is reasonable to misunderstand. I was about to explain and comfort, but Zhanxiao yawned and fell asleep on the bed. Yu Zhao couldn't help but cover her with a quilt while crying and laughing, and was about to go out, when he suddenly saw a small chamberlain sneaking over from the crack in the window, and his body was hiding in the dark to observe.

I saw the waiter shouting tentatively: "Concubine Chen? Zhan Liangdi? ”

Yu Zhao held his breath and didn't answer, and heard him call again, but still didn't respond. The chamberlain looked left and right, quickly took out the incense in his cuff, lit it beside the bed, and threw it down, and then hurried out, and locked the door. Yu Zhao came out from behind the bed, stepped forward and stepped on the incense, and put it in his cuffs.

Chu Zikai's voice came from outside again: "What about Concubine Chen and Zhan Liangdi?" ”

The attendant replied in a panic: "Concubine Chen, please wait in the north wing, and send Zhan Liangdi over later." ”

Chu Zikai nodded and scolded him down. Looking around, I felt strange, there was no one in the courtyard, and in the midst of vigilant watching, I heard Yu Zhao's voice sound: "Your Highness." ”

Sensing her direction, Chu Zikai came over and opened the window, and Yu Zhao immediately said, "The princess is here, I'm afraid someone is planning something." ”

Chu Zikai nodded and pulled her with both hands: "Turn it out, let's go and see which play this person is singing." ”

Hand her hand, Yu Zhao was a little difficult to turn over in a gorgeous dress, Chu Zikai jumped in quickly, picked her up and flipped it out, and didn't let go. Yu Zhao looked around, and when he saw that there was no one, he felt a little relieved, and stretched out his hand to pinch Chu Zikai's smiling ruffian face: "What His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the ruffian is almost the same!"
