Chapter 210: Unwillingness

It is not reasonable for Xu Nuanwen to be worried, after all, Xu Yanzhu is not in the capital at this time, if someone has the heart to investigate this matter, they will definitely find that something is wrong.

It's just that at the beginning, they all thought that no one would pay attention to Xu Yanzhu, after all, there were too many eye-catching things in the capital, but they didn't expect that Ye Jingde would take the initiative to mention her today.

After Mrs. Xu saw Xu Nuanwen's concern, she just smiled at her comfortingly, and did not say anything more.

In a few days, it will be the end of the year, as long as Emperor Ruikang smoothly abdicates and his son-in-law Ye Jingxing ascends the throne, even if Xu Yanzhu's matter is discovered, it will be nothing.

As long as Ye Jingche is solved and Yan Ye's identity is remembered, there is no need to keep it secret.

Since Yan Ye's identity does not need to be kept secret, the relationship between him and Xu Yanzhu must be covered up so tightly.

She believes that as long as Empress Hu learns that her grandson is still alive and married to the daughter of her Xu family, she will do her best to protect her grandson's family.

Because Mrs. Xu was as stable as Mount Tai, Xu Nuanwen quickly sorted out her emotions after being nervous.

Worried that Dong Shu was scared, she stayed with Dong Shu for most of the next day, and until she left the big room, she made an appointment with Dong Shu to go to the Seven Princes' Mansion tomorrow.

Dong Shu listened to Ye Jingde's words today, thinking about Xu Yanzhu's affairs in her heart, and she didn't dare to ask when she was in the big room, and she didn't ask Mrs. Xu until she got home.

Mrs. Xu is much more careful about Dong Shu than Xu Nuanwen, also because she knows Dong Shu's temperament, if she doesn't say it clearly, she is afraid that she will have to think about it for a long time.

"You don't have to worry about this, even if it is found that Yanzhu is not in the nunnery on the outskirts of Beijing, we can say that we can arrange for Yanzhu to go to other places to relax." Old Lady Xu looked at Dong Shu, and after saying this, she paused before continuing: "What's more, the sixth prince is probably just guessing that Yanzhu is not in the capital, and he doesn't have the courage to directly break into the nunnery to confirm." It will be the end of the year in a few days, and he is afraid that he will not have the heart to care about this matter anymore. ”

After listening to Mrs. Xu's words, Dong Shu couldn't help nodding.

"Mother, what you said makes sense, then I will pay attention to it in the last few days, and I can't show my feet." Dong Shu spoke, a touch of shyness flashed on her face, if it wasn't for her sister coming in time today, she was afraid that she would have exposed her flaws in front of the six princes.

Old Mrs. Xu didn't mean to blame Dong Shu, she looked at Dong Shu and smiled charitantly, and said: "You are not tired today, take Yuan Xi back to rest earlier, don't you have to go to the Seven Princes' Mansion tomorrow?" ”

Speaking of this, Dong Shu was stunned for a moment, and then informed Mrs. Xu of her worries.

"Mother, they all say that I am blessed, if I go to see the Seventh Emperor Concubine this time, her body is still the same as before, what should I do?" Dong Shu frowned as she spoke.

Mrs. Xu didn't have so many worries, she looked at Dong Shu and persuaded: "Don't think so much, the Seventh Princess has not had children for many years, and she has been taking medicine before, and her health is not good because she has taken too much medicine, and this matter is not a secret in the capital." And I heard that her recent condition is not good, and the imperial doctor has said more than once, and this time I will go to you, I am afraid it will be the last time to try. You will only be a guest at the Seven Princes' Mansion tomorrow, accompany your sister to see the Seven Princes, and don't think too much about other things. Speaking of this, Mrs. Xu paused before continuing: "The Seventh Prince is an understanding person, and he has a good relationship with your brother-in-law, today he asked you to go to the house to visit the Seventh Princess, I'm afraid he just wants the Seventh Princess to be more steady, even if it doesn't work, he won't blame you." ”

With the persuasion of Mrs. Xu, Dong Shu finally stopped worrying about this matter, and obediently took Yuan Xi back to Shihuan Courtyard to rest, preparing to go to the Seven Princes' Mansion to visit the Seven Princes the next day.

It's just that Dong Shu didn't expect that when she and her aunt arrived at the Seven Princes' Mansion the next day, there would be other people in the Seven Princes' Mansion.

"This is the third prince's side concubine Liu." Xu Nuanwen whispered to Dong Shu to introduce the woman who had just come out of the house of the Seven Princesses, "She is the cousin of the Seventh Princess, but her mother is a concubine, and the mother of the Seventh Princesses is a concubine." ”

After Dong Shu listened to Xu Nuanwen's words, she bowed her head slightly, and then watched Liu and her sister greet each other.

Although the Liu family is the side concubine of the third prince, she is only a side concubine after all, not a main concubine, so even if Ye Jingche is ranked first than Ye Jingxing, her grade is not as good as Xu Nuanwen.

What's more, after seeing Dong Shu, her eyes also fell more on Dong Shu.

"I have long heard that Mrs. Xu is a blessed person, and when I saw it today, it was indeed the case." Liu had a shallow smile on his face, and looked at Dong Shu's eyes with temptation and puzzlement.

Dong Shu didn't want to talk to her, but she didn't expect that Liu would take the initiative to talk to her.

"The side concubine praised it falsely." Dong Shu also had a just right smile on her face, and after dropping these words, she wanted to follow her sister directly into the house, but she didn't expect that Liu would turn sideways directly and block her way.

After perceiving Liu's intentions, Dong Shu directly wrinkled her eyebrows, looked at her puzzled, and said, "What does this mean by Concubine Fang?" As she spoke, the smile on Dong Shu's face was also put away by her.

After hearing Dong Shu's words, Liu was obviously stunned, and after seeing Dong Shu put away the smile on his face, he stiffened his body, and said a little helplessly: "Mrs. Xu San misunderstood, I just think that Mrs. Xu San is blessed and wants to be closer to one or two." After saying this, the Liu family moved out of the way so that Dong Shu could enter the house to visit the Seventh Princess.

Dong Shu couldn't figure out what Liu wanted to do, and seeing that her sister was still waiting for her in the door, she nodded at Liu, didn't speak again, and walked directly into the house.

Dong Shu didn't know that just after she left, Liu's clenched fists hidden in his sleeves slowly loosened.

Why, why can such a woman from an unknown background have the love of her husband, but she is the only one......

When Dong Shu walked to Xu Nuanwen's side, Xu Nuanwen looked at her with concern and said, "Is there something wrong?" ”

"It's okay, sister doesn't need to worry." Dong Shu replied to Xu Nuanwen's words almost the moment her words fell, and after she finished speaking, she closed her mouth and followed Xu Nuanwen, who nodded at her, and walked directly into the house.

The face of the Seventh Imperial Concubine is indeed not good, not only is it not as plump as when others are about to give birth, but her face is also a little blue.

Seeing the Seventh Imperial Concubine like this, Dong Shu was suddenly taken aback, she really didn't expect that the Seventh Imperial Concubine would be like this.

This Dong Shu's heart also quickly thought about how she should speak later, such a seventh princess, she really didn't know how to persuade her.

The Seventh Imperial Concubine was very happy to see that the fifth sister-in-law really brought Dong Shu, the smile on her face was very sincere, and as soon as Dong Shu approached, she took the initiative to stretch out her hand to Dong Shu, and then without waiting for Dong Shu to react, she pulled Dong Shu's hand to her bulging belly.

After putting Dong Shu's hand on her stomach, she said to Dong Shu, who was obviously a little stunned: "Don't blame Mrs. Xu, I'm too eager." After saying this, she paused and continued: "They all say that you are blessed, and I don't know if it's true or not, but I still begged the prime minister to ask him to ask the fifth sister-in-law to help invite you." If you are truly blessed, I beg you to give a small share to my child, that he may be born and grow up in peace. ”

The Seventh Princess's behavior at this time was actually inappropriate, but looking at her appearance at this time, no one said anything to blame her.

She married Ye Jinghui at the age of sixteen, and began to take various child-seeking drugs in the second year of marriage, and did not conceive a child until the beginning of this year.

Now the child is about to be born, but her health is getting worse and worse, she doesn't know if she can survive until the child grows up, so as long as there is a glimmer of hope, she is willing to try.

"I only want the child to be safe now, and if it is really punished by heaven, it will all come to me." When the Seventh Princess said this, her yellow and blue face also had a touch of perseverance.

Dong Shu originally disliked her because of the actions of the Seventh Princess, but after listening to her words, she could feel her love for the child in her womb from her words.

Especially if she is willing to bear all the pain, Dong Shu feels that she is also a mother who loves her children.

Thinking of her mood when she was pregnant with Yuan Xi, Dong Shu stabilized her emotions, looked at the Seventh Princess and said, "You shouldn't think about it, since you can conceive this child, it proves that you have fate." The most important thing you should do now is to relax and look forward to his birth. In the future, the child's upbringing will not be separated from you, think about it, if you are really gone, who can really love this child? There is a saying in our hometown that 'if you marry a stepmother, you will have a stepfather', and I think this is true. ”

Dong Shu's temperament is straightforward, these words, it's not that no one persuades the Seventh Princess on weekdays, it's just that they are afraid that the Seventh Princess will think too much, so they say it very tactfully, but they didn't expect Dong Shu to say it directly.

After saying the previous words, Dong Shu noticed that the Seventh Princess's movement of pulling her hand was a little lighter, so she gently touched her belly, "The child can feel what mood you are in, only when you are happy, the child will be happy." ”

After the words fell, Dong Shu removed the hand that was placed on the stomach of the Seventh Princess, and then sat down on the stool next to the Seventh Princess's bed.

Xu Nuanwen kept looking at Dong Shu, and it wasn't until she sat down that she quietly glanced at the Seventh Imperial Princess, who was obviously a little stunned because of Dong Shu's words.

"Seventh brother and sister, although what my brother and sister said was direct, it was not wrong. The fifth sister-in-law is from the past, when I was pregnant with Brother Xuan, it was because I thought a lot, so I ......"

Needless to say, Xu Nuanwen's later words, the Seventh Princess could also understand what she meant.

Ye Xuan's health is not good, for so many years before, the Five Princes' Mansion was carefully raised little by little, and it was not until this year that he was much better, and he could go out to meet people.

For so many years before, every autumn and winter, I had to take medicine until the end of spring.

Thinking of this, the eyes of the Seventh Imperial Concubine were sour, and she looked at Xu Nuanwen and cried: "It's mine, it's not me, it's that I didn't want to open it." After saying this, the Seventh Princess's face suddenly had a smile, "I also want to thank the Third Lady Xu for her persuasion, they have also persuaded me before, but they are afraid that I will not be able to accept it, so they did not say it so directly." Listening to Mrs. Xu's words today, it made me understand that it was all my fault before. You're right, if I'm gone, who's going to protect my children. ”

The royal family is different from other families, if she will go here, at most three years, the husband will remarry.

At that time, her child was only three years old, and there was no way to protect herself.

Therefore, she must live, only if she lives well, can she protect the child who has worked so hard to get it!

Looking at the Seventh Imperial Concubine like this, Dong Shu also didn't know what to say.

Dong Shu felt that as long as she was a pregnant woman, she should understand, but she didn't understand why the Seventh Princess couldn't understand it before.

Could it be that it's really like what she said, and those people didn't dare to say it too directly before?

As soon as Xu Nuanwen saw that Dong Shu didn't speak, she knew that she didn't know what to say.

At this time, she could only open her mouth, said a few words to persuade the Seventh Princess, and then told her to rest well recently and not to think too much.

The Seventh Princess may really want to open it, she has not been able to sleep well because she was worried about an accident during childbirth, and after listening to Dong Shu and Xu Nuanwen's words, she soon felt sleepy.

Seeing that the Seven Princes were drowsy, Dong Shu and Xu Nuanwen naturally did not want to continue to stay in the Seven Princes' Mansion.

It's just that they didn't expect that the Seventh Princess slept directly for a day and a night.

On the evening of the twenty-fourth day of the lunar month, the Seventh Princess, who finally woke up, had a hard meal and then started.

Perhaps because of Dong Shu's previous words, although the Seventh Princess was scared, she still held on and gave birth to Ye Jinghui's eldest son early the next morning.

Although the child is sick and difficult to raise, she may not be able to regenerate in the future.

But the arrival of a new life still gave the Seventh Princess hope again, because she thought of her fifth sister-in-law Xu Nuanwen.

Since the fifth sister-in-law can raise Ye Xuan, then she can also raise her own children.

Dong Shu was also very happy when she learned that the Seventh Princess Concubine had successfully given birth to a son, but she would have more, and she was still puzzled by the note in her hand asking her to go out to meet.

Today is the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, and there are still a few days to go before the New Year, who wants to see her? And still to see her secretly?
