Chapter 9: Joy and Tears
Xia Yinbing has been very weak recently, weak and sleepy, and has slept for several days without any signs of improvement, and he can't eat anything, but he holds the sour plums on the car and eats with relish, and he is sleepy after eating, and he no longer has the strength to do anything else.
Nan Xuanye sat at one end of the car, calmly looking at the diagnosis results of the imperial doctor in his hand, his heartbeat was pounding faster, his fingers trembled slightly, the note in his hand almost fell to the ground, he raised his eyes slightly and looked at the woman in front of him who had been sleeping, and suddenly rushed to a lot of pressure, this woman was pregnant with his child, but he was not the slightest happy, but there was still a trace of relief, he finally had a child, fortunately it was her, fortunately it was her, he should think about it, how to keep this child, not to keep her by his side, That's impossible! If it were possible, he would rather this woman be tied to him, so that he would not have to worry about her! “
East Palace Prince's Mansion, Fengyang Palace
The crown princess Su Yan leaned lazily on the chaise longue, looked at the book in her hand and looked at the book in her hand leisurely, and Yuan Shuang on the side handed the stove to the hand of the crown princess Su Yan.
"Niangniang, yesterday's news, the prince is already on his way back, these two days are coming, you look forward to the stars and the moon, His Royal Highness the prince is finally coming back! That's really good news! After Yuan Shuang finished speaking, she poured a cup of hot tea for the crown princess Su Yan, and walked to the crown princess's side to pinch her shoulders.
"But didn't that woman also spend two months with the prince? Thinking of this, this palace is on fire in my heart, thinking that they have been together for a month, and my heart has been tormented for two months! They're coming back, and that's great news! The crown princess Su Yan gritted her silver teeth, her eyes were slightly chilled, her hands firmly hugged the hand stove in front of her, and the books in her hands quickly fell to the ground.
"Crown Princess, that woman doesn't know whether she lives or dies, she actually broke through your bottom line, you must teach her a good lesson when she comes back!" Yuan Shuang looked at the crown princess Su Yan in front of him and said.
"How to deal with that woman, do you still need to teach you?" Crown Princess Su Yan looked at Yuan Shuang in front of her, raised her eyebrows slightly, and her eyes slowly ignited flames.
"Did you also learn from that woman to hook up with the prince and try to climb the branches and become a phoenix, right? Now you're starting to point fingers at everything, isn't this palace very stupid, everything depends on you to plan, right? In the future, I need to ask you for advice on everything in this palace, look at your face, right? ”
"Mother's life! Slaves don't dare! Mother's life! Yuan Shuang was so frightened that her whole body trembled, and she kept kowtowing, her head was soon bruised, and her voice trembled, but she still didn't dare to stop, kowtowing while crying and begging for mercy.
"Ahh …… Empress! Crown Princess Su Yan picked up the hot tea beside her, picked up the tea lid, and the right hand holding the hot tea was slightly tilted, and the hot water poured directly down Yuan Shuang's head, Yuan Shuang screamed, her body instinctively dodged, and poured backwards, as a result, Su Yan directly spilled a cup of hot tea directly on Yuan Shuang's body, and the painful Yuan Shuang rolled on the ground, but he didn't dare to run too far, so he could only kneel on the ground, crying.
Su Yan leaned over and sat up slightly, raised his eyebrows slightly, pinched a little broken silver in his hand, only heard a bang, and the broken silver was still at Yuan Shuang's feet by Su Yan at will.
Su Yan's eyes swelled with mockery, and his red lips hooked slightly: "Pick up the silver, get out!" ”
"Yes, yes! Thanks a lot...... Empress! A trace of resentment flashed in Yuanshuang's eyes, while sobbing, he endured the pain, and slowly got up from the ground, his hair was constantly dripping and unkempt, his whole body was wet and dry, and he looked very embarrassed, and when he walked out, there were water stains on the ground.
"Come on, clean up the stains on the ground, it looks an eyesore!" As soon as the crown princess Su Yan finished speaking, two maidservants walked in outside, lowered their eyebrows and buried their heads in dealing with the stains on the ground, cleaning up the chaos caused by Yuanshuang's chaotic hiding in the room.
"You're still so frizzy, how can this be good, if today's scene is seen by Prince Nan Xuanye, how do you feel, what will he think of you?" At this time, Prime Minister Su Zhe slowly walked in outside, holding his hands behind his back and looking at the crown princess Su Yan in front of him with a serious face.
"Daddy!" When the crown princess Su Yan saw her father, she immediately stood up in a hurry, straightened her clothes, stood aside in a regular manner, took out a new tea bowl, poured a cup of tea and sent it to Su Zhe.
"Daddy, please have tea!" The crown princess Su Yan stood aside in a regular manner, put her right hand behind her and waved secretly, and the two maids who were cleaning up on the ground immediately stood up, bowed their heads slightly, and closed the door.
Prime Minister Su Zhe hummed softly, but the teacup poked shallowly, put down the teacup in his hand, and looked at the daughter in front of him: "The prince will come back in two days, you have received the news!" ”
"Yes, my daughter already knows!" Su Yan stood aside in a regular manner and replied obediently.
"Why punish your personal maid so much, Yuanshuang is the person you brought from the Prime Minister's Mansion, you treat her like this, you are not afraid that she will bite you back one day?" Su Zhe raised his eyes to look at his daughter in front of him and asked rhetorically.
"She doesn't dare, her daughter won't give her this chance! She doesn't have the guts either, she knows her daughter's temper, and if she dares to make trouble, then her whole family will be buried for her! Crown Princess Su Yan said lightly.
"You are so ruthless, why don't you use this woman Xia Yinbing? Why did she follow the prince south for two months instead of you? Prime Minister Su Zhe raised his eyes to look at the daughter in front of him and asked sharply.
"It's my daughter's negligence!" The crown princess Su Yan's scalp was numb, her hands hidden in her sleeves were secretly clenched, constantly secretly observing her father's face, and thinking quickly about countermeasures in her mind.
"Father, don't worry, as soon as the prince comes back, her daughter will quietly kill her, and she won't let Xia Yinbing appear by the prince's side again!" Su Yan added in time, hoping that this could calm her father's anger, she couldn't let him down, she couldn't pair up, if she lost her father's support, she didn't dare to imagine what days would be waiting for her in the future! How will the crown prince Nan Xuanye treat her, the power of the family has always been her greatest confidence in the East Palace, she must fight for it! Otherwise, it is only a matter of time before she loses her favor, and she will never let such a thing happen! Absolute!
"How can there be fewer women around the prince, he will inherit the unification in the future, and there will be countless concubines in the harem every year, do you have to eradicate them one by one? Don't you feel tired? As a crown princess, as a woman, in the royal family, what do you think is the most valuable thing you can do? Do you still need your father to say it directly? ”
"Su Yan, how long have you been married to the crown prince?" Prime Minister Su Zhe looked at Su Yan in front of him calmly, slapped the table with his right hand slightly, and Su Yan's body shook slightly.
"It's been five years!" Su Yan said reluctantly, this is the biggest pain in her heart! Obviously there is no problem with her body, when the prince is in the East Palace, there is a fixed day of sleeping every month, why, why is there no news about her stomach? She has been carefully checking her diet, there is no problem, why can't she always conceive a child!
"Yes, it's been five years, five years ago, Xia Manjiang's daughter Xia Tianmo married one step ahead of you, you didn't catch up with the good time in time, you can only be wronged to be a side concubine, Xia Tianmo has been treated coldly by the prince for a long time, she was only touched by the prince once, and she was successfully conceived, what about you, you have been enjoying the exclusive favor, but there is still no news, later, Daddy helped you remove the obstacles, you are now the only princess of the East Palace, five years later, what is your return to the Su family!"
Su Zhe slapped the table heavily, the shocked teacup kept shaking, and finally it didn't withstand the blow and fell to the ground, Su Yan's heart kept drumming, and finally he knelt on the ground all of a sudden, looking down at the ground.
"Daddy, I really can't blame my daughter, this birth is really not something I can control, this, this is really something that can be done!" Su Yan knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice.
"I don't want to listen to your explanation, I just want the result, you only have half a year now, if there is still no news from your stomach, then, let your sister Ruoyao marry in!" After Su Zhe finished speaking, he stood up, came to open the door and walked out.
"Daddy! Father! ......" Su Yan knelt on the ground and looked at the prime minister Su Zhe who was gradually moving away, his hands tugged at his shirt fiercely, tears came out of his eyes, his lips pursed into a straight line, and he lay directly on the ground, his eyes faintly glowing with a fierce light.
Xia Yinbing sat up from the car, her mind was still drowsy, she didn't know how long she had been asleep, she didn't have the strength to eat, she could only keep drinking some of the tea that Nan Xuanye forced her to pour down, although it was the color of tea, but the taste was still very weird, sweet and sour, which made her want to stop and be addicted to drinking.
"What kind of tea is this, and why do I always want to drink it?" Xia Yinbing held the tea and looked at Nan Xuanye, who was playing chess alone, and asked.
"Fetal tea." Nan Xuanye dropped a white piece and looked at the chessboard without raising his head.
"Poof!" Xia Yinbing squirted out a sip of tea, and the tea was sprayed directly on Nan Xuanye's face with meat foam, Nan Xuanye closed his eyes slightly, felt the water stains on his face, slowly opened his eyes, looked at the person in front of him, and with a bang, the entire chessboard was overturned to the ground, and the chess pieces fell to the ground.
Xia Yinbing looked at Nan Xuanye in front of her in shock, her body rose and fell violently, her voice trembled, and asked again, "Fetal tea?" ”
"Wipe my face!" Nan Xuanye's cold voice came, looking at Xia Yinbing in front of him, he gritted his back molars and said.
Xia Yinbing was still stunned in place, and kept muttering to herself: "Am I pregnant?" Are you pregnant......"
Nan Xuan came up in a rage at night, looked at the woman who was still in a daze on the other side with angry eyes, and just when he wanted to pounce, reason suddenly came to his heart, he took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed the impulse, took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped a handful of water stains on his face, looked at the woman who was still in a daze and sat over.
"You're pregnant! Is it that scary? Or you're not a woman! Nan Xuanye pinched Xia Yinbing's shoulders and mocked.
"How is that possible, how can I get pregnant? I'm nameless and pointless! Xia Yinbing looked at the man opposite emotionally, and couldn't help but ask in her heart, obviously her emotions were a little broken, her calmness, her self-control, all fell apart at this moment, and she was completely down.
"Look at me! Look at me! Xia Yinbing! Nam Hyun Ye shouted loudly again, looking at the woman in front of her. When Nan Xuanye completely let go of Xia Yinbing and ignored her, Xia Yinbing suddenly looked at the man in front of her in disbelief who let go of herself and ignored him, and the feeling of being cared for in her heart disappeared all of a sudden, she couldn't understand the man in front of her, she was pregnant! She has his Nan Xuanye's child, why is she still treated like this?
"It's just pregnant, and it's not a big deal, as for you, are you so surprised? If you don't like it, it doesn't matter, it's not a month yet, I can arrange for the doctor to give you a bowl of abortion pills, so that you can have a smooth abortion and get rid of this child, how about it, will you not feel uncomfortable and excited if you do this? ”
Nan Xuanye looked at the chessboard scattered all over the place in front of him, he was too lazy to clean it up, he quickly took out a book and looked at it seriously, lying on the cushion behind him freely and refusing to look at Xia Yinbing again, it seemed that the scene where he called her out of control just now was like a dream, now he is quiet, indifferent, and still puts all his mind on himself, he handles her pregnancy lightly, without any excitement, just casually saying some abortion words, really, ruthless and unjust, indifferent to death! It really chilled her heart!
"Impossible! I will give birth to her (him) even if I die! Anyone can hurt him, including you, since you have spoken out what is in your heart, so you don't care about this child, very well, I will list you as the first person to be guarded against, and I want to kill this child unless I die! No one wants to kill my child! Xia Yinbing's face was filled with a layer of danger, and she slowly kept such a small distance from Nan Xuanye in front of her, and from then on, before resting and eating, Xia Yinbing always pulled out her hairpin and silver needle for testing in advance to prevent any behavior that was unfavorable to the fetus, and even the prescription of the tocolytic medicine that the imperial doctor gave her asked Nan Xuanye for back, and stared at Nan Xuanye's every move at all times to prevent him from doing a black job.
"By the way, I forgot to tell you one thing, do you know why the prince and the princess have been married for so many years, why they don't have any children, one is that the princess herself did not give birth to children, and the other reason is that all the daughters I have touched will be given a bowl of soup, and then the princess will secretly force these women to drink a bowl of soup, that kind of soup will make these women have nothing to do in their lives, although people will not die, but if you want to have children, it is really a fool's dream!"
"So, don't think that you are now pregnant with a lucky thing, Xiao Wang, I can tell you responsibly, this will be a life-threatening talisman, so that you can see the king of Hades early, it seems that Xiao Wang After I return to the East Palace, there will be a good show to watch soon, I really want to see, how long will it take the crown princess to beat the child on you, can you play this game of life and death with her, as a fair party, I will ask a famous imperial doctor in the East Palace for you to be fully responsible for your fetal protection and medicinal diet before you give birth to a child, Xiao Wang, I will not interfere with your residence, if you want to stay by my side with you, go back to the Hundred Beasts Garden with you, this is your freedom, but if the crown princess is like you, this will not do anything to Xiao Wang and me, this is the fairest principle, do you hear clearly? ”
After Nan Xuanye finished speaking, he looked at Xia Yinbing's hateful face with gritted teeth, holding the steaming tea bowl and drinking tea, but there was a faint wave in his eyes, the corners of his lips were slightly pursed, his right hand slowly rubbed the corners of his forehead, and he quickly leaned on the cushion behind him and slowly closed his eyes.
Xia Yinbing dragged her cyan gauze skirt with both hands, put on the cyan jacket behind her, held the tocolytic pills that Cheng Yu had just sent in, and drank it in a big gulp, she followed Nan Yanlie for three or four years, and lived four years of purgatory, practicing martial arts, practicing dance, and practicing pharmacology and drug dispensing, all of which were not a joke, poisonous or not, she could naturally distinguish between them, so she was naturally relieved to be a necessary diet.
The car bumped all the way, it was a kind of sin for her, she couldn't eat well, she couldn't sleep well, but she was still sleepy and couldn't eat anything, the man on the opposite side Nan Xuanye didn't say a word of hush and warmth, and there was no one around to help take care of it, Nan Xuanye looked at his books from beginning to end, sometimes Cheng Yu would send in some secret letterheads, he would tear them off on the spot, and then his face became more and more ugly, the closer he got to the capital, the more irritable he became, and in the end he no longer rode in a carriage with her, rode back to Beijing in advance, leaving Cheng Yu alone to accompany her.
Xia Yinbing looked at the empty seats in front of her, she had already packed up the chessboard in front of her, and the chess pieces were placed on the chessboard safely, but the man playing chess in front of her had long since disappeared, she lifted the curtain and looked out, there was no one on the official road, only the leaves that kept falling set off this sad and desolate late autumn, and she slowly stretched out her white wrist to catch the slowly falling dead leaves.
"Miss Xia, there is still half a day's work, and we will be in the capital! You'll be able to rest in no time! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also went back in advance to make arrangements, don't worry, he won't leave you alone, after all, this is his first child in four years, he will definitely care! After all......"
Xia Yinbing looked at Cheng Yu in front of him with hope, but Cheng Yu suddenly stopped talking, looked at the slanting sun in the west, and quickly changed the topic: "Now that the sun is about to set, let's hurry up and go find an inn, you are pregnant now, you need to rest well!" ”
"Speed up! Hurry to the next inn! After Cheng Yu finished speaking, he quickly led the team to gallop in the direction of the capital, Xia Yinbing protected his stomach with both hands, and firmly grasped the handrail of the prime minister with the other, looking at the trees that were gradually receding outside, the sky had been burned red, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
When Nan Xuanye secretly returned to the Prince's Mansion in the capital ahead of schedule, the crown princess Su Yan quickly got the news and arranged for someone to prepare a table of wine banquets for Nan Xuanye as soon as possible, and ordered the people up and down the East Palace to move together, sweep the courtyard wantonly, and get up and down together.
It's as lively as the New Year, everyone's face is filled with a layer of joy, the kitchen of the East Palace is filled with a smell of food, and the crown princess Su Yan seems to have been prepared for a long time, when she came out to greet Nan Xuanye, her makeup was exquisite, her hair bun was beautiful and beautiful, her lips were red and her teeth were white, her smile was beautiful, and her clothes were more exquisite than in the past.
