054 Pregnancy
It was already evening when Wu Zhen came to Fengyi Palace, and Du Yao was sitting on the stone bench and stroking the piano at this time.
I don't know how much sorrow is taken away by the song "Autumn Introduction", and the unknown thoughts hidden behind the sound of the piano.
Du Yao's piano sound lingered in the palace for a long time, and Wu Zhen was not angry when he stepped into the Fengyi Palace.
Du Yao couldn't let go, he wouldn't force it, and he didn't want to compare it with a dead person.
After retiring from the palace attendants who were following him, Wu Zhen came to sit on the stone bench beside Du Yao, closed his eyes and listened to Du Yao's piano sound.
Du Yao's skills in stroking the qin can be said to be more and more exquisite, and the sound of the piano is intoxicating, although the sound of the piano is deeply sad, Wu Zhen still listens to it with relish.
Wu Zhen's expression Du Yao could see it clearly, she could see that Wu Zhen didn't want to worry too much about her, but she was not interested.
The sound of the piano flickered, as fast as a fierce horse, and before it was too late for Wu Zhen to speculate, the strings suddenly broke, stained with blood.
Seeing that Du Yao's fingers were cut by the strings, Wu Zhen didn't have time to think and directly put Du Yao's fingers into his mouth to stop the bleeding for her.
Wu Zhen's actions shocked Du Yao's heart, and in a hurry, she didn't care that her hand was still being dragged by Wu Zhen, and directly hit Wu Zhen with one palm.
After receiving Du Yao's palm, Wu Zhen was not angry, but let go of Du Yao's two wrists.
"If you are worried that I will be poisoned by your blood, you can rest assured, Helian Chen has prepared a pill for me to prevent the toxin from entering my body."
Wu Zhen said and took out a bottle of pills from his arms, poured one in his palm, and did not forget to take it in front of Du Yao, seeing this, Du Yao was still silent.
Du Yao's indifferent attitude was obvious, but Wu Zhen was still not angry, but ordered Qin Xiao, who was guarding outside the Fengyi Palace.
"Qin Xiao, bring the food to the outer hall, I want to eat with the queen."
"Yes."
After receiving the order, Qin Xiao did not dare to slack off, and the palace attendant who was waiting outside the hall early immediately carried the food box into the outer hall.
The knowledgeable Wanxin put away Du Yao's guqin and made the bed in the inner hall.
Watching the palace attendants go in and out of his dormitory, Du Yao felt a little troubled.
Wu Zhen beside him noticed that Du Yao's mood was not very good, and he guessed that Du Yao didn't like these palace attendants to go in and out of Fengyi Palace, so he whispered softly in Du Yao's ear.
"If you don't like the crowds here, you'll eat dinner at my place in the future."
"Your Majesty's love, the concubine can't afford it."
Du Yao, who hadn't spoken for a long time, was finally willing to speak to Wu Zhen, which was also a surprise to Wu Zhen, although Du Yao's attitude was obviously not good, but her willingness to talk to Wu Zhen at least showed that she didn't reject Wu Zhen so much, maybe this was a good thing for the two of them.
"Since Concubine Ai doesn't want to eat at my place, I will move my imperial dining room to your kitchen, does Concubine Ai think it's good to do this?"
Wu Zhen's tone did not allow Du Yao to refute at all, let alone object, since Wu Zhen had such thoughts, Du Yao let him go.
“......”
Seeing that Du Yao didn't speak for a long time, Wu Zhen's previous patience was more or less worn out, but he was still trying his best to restrain himself from letting his emotions explode in front of Du Yao, Helian Chen told him more than once that Du Yao couldn't withstand too much emotion now, and he had to let her do everything.
Thinking like this, a rare smile appeared on Wu Zhen's face, and he took Du Yao's cold hand and walked towards the outer hall.
"Come, let's see what delicious food I've made for you."
Wu Zhen still held Du Yao's hand despite Du Yao's struggle, Du Yao knew that he didn't have so much strength to compete with Wu Zhen, so he gave up the struggle and let Wu Zhen lead him.
Feeling that Du Yao was no longer struggling, Wu Zhen's mood suddenly became happy, and after sitting down with Du Yao, he ordered everyone.
"Wanxin, Qin Xiao, just stay and wait, and the rest of you can retreat."
After receiving the order, the palace attendants did not dare to slack off and left the outer hall one after another.
Looking at the sumptuous meals on the table, Du Yao had no appetite. Wanxin on the side intimately served a bowl of lettuce soup for Du Yao, and did not forget to say while serving the soup:
"Niangniang can't eat too greasy food now, this lettuce soup is specially ordered by His Majesty to prepare the imperial dining room, Niangniang taste it."
"I don't eat lettuce."
Du Yao didn't appreciate Wanxin's hospitality, and Wanxin's current actions made Du Yao more and more sure that Wanxin was the eyeliner that Wu Zhen had placed beside her.
Seeing that Du Yao didn't like lettuce soup, Wu Zhen didn't feel half displeased with Du Yao, but was a little annoyed when he looked at Wanxin, as if Wanxin had done something wrong.
got up and personally served a bowl of pine mushroom chicken soup for Du Yao, and Wu Zhen brought it to her.
"This chicken soup was stewed for a long time before it came out of the pot, Helian Chen said that you are still too weak now, drink more chicken soup to make up for it."
Seeing Wu Zhen put the soup bowl in front of her, Du Yao deliberately noticed a touch of jealousy flashing in Wan Xin's eyes, and then she understood everything. It turns out that this little girl understands what she is thinking, so it is not surprising that she would be so desperate to do things for Wu Zhen.
Picking up the soup bowl, Du Yao drank it with a jade soup spoon. Seeing that Du Yao was willing to eat the food he served her, Wu Zhen was in a good mood, and he also drank a bowl of chicken soup under Qin Xiao's service.
In this way, Wu Zhen ate whatever Du Yao sandwiched for Du Yao, and Wu Zhen ate whatever Du Yao ate, and the two of them ate to their heart's content.
After dinner, Wu Zhen had no intention of staying, and asked Wanxin to take care of Du Yao before leaving.
When Wu Zhen left, Du Yao obviously noticed the loss on Wanxin's face, and when she thought about it, she understood everything. Wanxin obviously wanted to get yes's favor tonight, but unfortunately her wishful thinking was wrong.
After Wu Zhen left, Du Yao was not in a hurry to rest, and started playing chess by himself.
Seeing that the hour was not early, Wanxin said on the side:
"Miss, it's not early, you should rest early."
"If you're sleepy, go to sleep, I'm not sleepy."
As soon as Du Yao's words came out, Wanxin, as a minion, couldn't leave her master and go to sleep by herself, if she let Wu Zhen know, she would definitely not be spared.
Xu noticed that Wanxin's expression was slightly haggard, and Du Yao frowned and said:
"Hold your hand out."
The tone of Du Yao's words couldn't help but be excused by Wanxin, and in desperation, Wanxin had no choice but to stretch out her hand and let Du Yao take her pulse.
Fingertips covered Wanxin's wrist, Du Yao was stunned for a moment, and then regained her composure.
Putting down Wanxin's wrist, Du Yao said coldly:
"Are you hiding something from me?"
There are some things that Du Yao doesn't want to make out in person, she still hopes that Wanxin can tell her the truth, even if it's just once.
Seeing Du Yao angry, Wanxin seemed to realize the seriousness of the matter. From the moment Du Yao insisted on calling for her, she knew that this matter could not be hidden from Du Yao.
"The slave and maid only found out about this matter a few days ago."
"Whose is this kid?"
At this time, Du Yao didn't want to pursue anything, she just wanted to know who the culprit was, she couldn't bear to ruin a little life that had not yet been born, she wanted to help Wanxin keep this child.
Du Yao's insistence on pursuing made Wanxin not know what to do, and noticing Wanxin's nervous expression, Du Yao seemed to understand a little.
"This kid is Wu Zhen's, right?"
The puzzle that she couldn't solve before became clear at this moment, and she thought about many results, but this one was unexpected.
Seeing Du Yao poked, Wanxin suddenly lost her strength and sat down on the ground all of a sudden.
After planning for so long, she finally had Wu Zhen's child, but she now knew very well that she and the child in her belly had no meaning to Wu Zhen, Wu Zhen didn't have any feelings for her, she was just a tool he used to deal with fake Fang Qingxi.
"It's cold on the ground, get up quickly."
Seeing Wanxin sitting paralyzed on the ground, Du Yao didn't help her up, but she couldn't bear to sit on the ground like that.
"Does the young lady already hate the slave to death?"
At this time, Wanxin's eyes flashed with tears, she thought that Du Yao would pity her, but it was a pity that Du Yao was hard-hearted now.
"I can't talk about hating you, it's just that I don't understand why you want to find ways to get Wu Zhen's favor."
Wu Zhen is indeed very good, but in Du Yao's heart, Du Yao has always treated Wanxin separately from other women, and she doesn't believe that Wanxin will become so worldly one day.
"Miss, there are some things that can't be explained clearly in a sentence or two, and now the slave and maid can't let Your Majesty know about it."
"You are carrying Wu Zhen's child in your womb, he must know that he is responsible for your mother and daughter. It's okay for you to suffer alone, but the child is not wrong, do you still want to suffer the child? ”
Du Yao plans to help Wanxin, not because of her past feelings, but because she doesn't want to continue to be monitored by Wu Zhen, and the most important thing is that she doesn't want Wanxin to spy on her.
Du Yao's words made Wanxin feel a little moved, touching her slightly bulging lower abdomen, Wanxin fell into deep thought. After a long time, Wanxin plucked up the courage to say:
"What did the young lady say the slave should do?"
At this time, Wanxin was desperate, and only Du Yao could help her in this deep palace. She couldn't count on anyone, the only one she could count on was her young lady.
"Another day, I will find an opportunity to tell Li Qinlin about your pregnancy, she is now taking care of the harem, and she will definitely protect Wu Zhen's child, as for the rest, I can't help you."
Du Yao's words are not unreasonable, Wanxin also understands Du Yao's situation, but she has repeatedly held the illusion that she can stay by Du Yao's side to get favored.
"Isn't there any other way, Miss?"
"I'm just the wife of a criminal, I don't have that ability."
Seeing Wanxin's repeated nonsense, Du Yao lost her previous patience and lost her intention to help her.
"Miss, the slave maid has no other meaning, the slave maid just wants to plan for the child in her belly, and I hope that Miss can fulfill it."
"I said that I can't be the master of this matter, it all depends on Wu Zhen's own meaning, if you want to live in Fengyi Hall with your child, you can talk to Wu Zhen."
When Du Yao said this, he couldn't bear it anymore, and after putting down this sentence, he turned around and returned to the inner hall.
