Wan Hui saw that she didn't speak, so she had to sigh: "A smart person like Niangniang doesn't need a slave to say anything, it's only right to hurry up and conceive one." If you don't have an heir, I'm afraid that the emperor's favor won't last long, and if there is a prince and an emperor, the mother will also have a dependency in the future. ”

Ouyang Zhen put down the book in his hand and glanced at Wan Hui with a smile: "Auntie, how many months have it been since I last had a miscarriage?" ”

Wan Hui was stunned but replied honestly: "A total of more than five months." ”

Ouyang Zhen said again: "How many months has it been since Zhanfei helped me drive blood and rejuvenate my tendons? ”

Wan Hui was stunned again: "About three months." ”

Ouyang Zhen sighed and stopped speaking, but Wan Hui suddenly understood: "Is Niangniang afraid that being conceived will harm herself?" ”

Ouyang Zhen nodded: "One of them, my aunt is a woman, so she naturally understands how much damage she has to having a child, and she is easy to grow old, and Jun En will not be there at that time." What about even the children who are born? I'm afraid ......."

Yes, she is afraid, afraid that she will be old and old, and she will only be empty and melancholy, and in the harem, everything has just begun for her......

"Second, I am from Huadi, how does my aunt think the emperor treats me?" Ouyang Zhen asked Wan Hui again. Wan Hui bowed her head and said: "The slave maid thinks that the emperor is very good to Niangniang, and she is worthy of deep affection. ”

Ouyang Zhen smiled bitterly: "But he also has times when he is in trouble, and my position is probably not too high because I am from Huadi." If she gave birth to a prince, she was harmed. If it is the emperor, I am afraid that she will miss her life. She has seen how many emperors' daughters have hastily married because of their biological mother's humble status, or used as a bargaining chip to entrap Fanbang in foreign countries, and the end is not not miserable.

Her identity has always been a great obstacle, and from the first day she stepped into the land of Chu, she reminded herself not to make a mistake. But now, if you really want to have children for him, even if it is not enough to rely on his love for her.

The candlelight flickered, the charcoal fire rattled, and both of them fell silent.

"But Niangniang, you can't drag it out, it's not a thing...... Wan Hui didn't understand her concerns until now, and sighed. Ouyang Zhen nodded, and also said: "Yes, I have to be born after all, but I have to wait until I am fully prepared." At least we have to wait for Wan Zhaoyi and Li Chonghua to have a baby. ”

Wan Hui nodded, took the bowl of cold soup down, and replaced it with the bird's nest milk that Ouyang Zhen drank daily.

Ouyang Zhen was lying on the bed, and the candle flame was lightly extinguished by Wan Hui. The room was dark again.

She recalled that day when she entered the palace, Chu Huotian took her to the "Ask the Rooftop" and the night was as dark as this, but she could clearly see that his eyes were as bright as stars, and the tenderness in them wanted to drown her.

Yes, he is good to her, compared to other harem concubines, he can be regarded as out of line with her, but he is an emperor after all, and the harem is beautiful...... Ouyang Zhen smiled bitterly, and said that he couldn't fully believe in his heart.

……

Early in the morning of the second day, Ouyang Zhen went to greet the queen mother as usual, but he didn't see Yu Chonghua coming. The queen smiled and said to everyone: "When I saw her first pregnancy, I saved her from the pain of getting up early to ask for peace." ”

When the people below heard this, there were those who were jealous and those who were unfair. Ouyang Zhen didn't interject. returned to the palace, but saw Ming Ying greet her and said: "Niangniang, Sister Zishan, the big palace maid next to Yu Chonghua, came over, saying that Yu Chonghua invited Niangniang to come over for tea." ”

Xiangye beside Ouyang Zhen was quick-mouthed, and snorted unevenly: "On weekdays, she came to ask her mother to say goodbye, how can she be so precious when she is pregnant." ”

Ouyang Zhen patted her lightly, and was slightly angry: "As long as your little hooves and mouth are fast, if you dare to talk like this in the future, I will punish you for getting up and sweeping the snow before dawn." Xiangye stuck out her tongue and said she didn't dare.

Ouyang Zhen thought about it carefully, looked at the sky again, and said to Wan Hui: "Go back up the gifts, and come with me in the afternoon." Wan Hui was busy.

In the afternoon, Ouyang Zhen slept before passing. It was just right, and the wind wasn't blowing so hard. The golden crow in the sky shines warmly, and it is very comfortable.

She only took Ming Ying and Dexuan, and went with gifts. After arriving at Yu Chonghua's residence "Nuan Chun Zhai", a clever little palace maid greeted her at the door, and she was deeply blessed and said: "My little master is waiting for the concubine Rou Niangniang to come over." ”

Ouyang Zhen nodded and followed her in.

Yu Chonghua was half-lying on the beauty collapse to rest, wearing a crimson home-style skirt embroidered with small flowers, very plain, but her face was like spring.

When she saw Ouyang Zhen coming in, she hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Concubine Rou Niangniang, please be safe!" Saying that, Ouyang Zhen hurriedly helped her up and said with a smile: "Why do you see the outside like this." I haven't given you a good greeting yesterday. I'm going to come here when the cherry blossom country comes, so I want to wait for you to come back when you're cleaner. I didn't expect you to call the palace maid to urge, which made the palace embarrassed. ”

Yu Chonghua shook her hand and walked to the inner room, and sighed when he heard it, although his tone was light, Ouyang Zhen heard it. There was a trace of worry on her face, but she smiled: "Concubine Rou came over to help the concubine see how to return the gift, and the gifts given by several mothers are difficult for the concubine." ”

Ouyang Zhen followed her in.

When she arrived in the inner room, Yu Chonghua made a look, and the palace maids below retreated, and then she shook Ouyang Zhen's hand and said worriedly: "Sister, there is no outsider here, to be honest, I am sad to death." Pregnant with a dragon seed is like being pregnant with something, how many pairs of eyes are watching. ”

Ouyang Zhen quietly took out his hand, took a sip of the teacup and said with a smile: "Sister Li is young and her first child, so it is inevitable that she will think more." It's okay. ”

Yu Chonghua was straightforward and fast-talking, and when he saw Ouyang Zhen smiling and Yan Yan, he was a little anxious. Turned around and took out a red silk bag from the walnut cabinet and spread it out in front of Ouyang Zhen.

"Sister, look at it, this is a reward from the queen, what do you mean by her?" Yu Chonghua asked, pointing to the pile of golden things.

Ouyang Zhen looked at it and couldn't help but be surprised: "Why did you reward so much?" That's not how it usually is. ”

I saw that there were more than a dozen pairs of gold bracelets of various colors in the baggage, and at first glance there were more than a dozen pairs of good jade bracelets, as well as gold hairpins, ivory jade combs, etc., this amount is really too much, and Chu Huotian has recently cracked down on corruption, and he has made the harem thrifty and cut the amount, as the queen, she has already taken the lead, why she has rewarded so many things, it is really puzzling.

Yu Chonghua's delicate and delicate face flashed with annoyance, and he took a handkerchief and waved it in his face a few times and said: "After the banquet last night, the queen kept me and said some words, those words are weird. I just don't feel comfortable listening to it. ”

Ouyang Zhen asked, "What did the queen say?" ”
