On the sixth day of the eighth month of the eighth year of Yong'an, Xiao Wuzi, who was waiting for Concubine Ying's mother in Luoxue Pavilion, was distracted when he was on an errand, and Xiao Dezi, the eunuch in charge who had always been regarded as a thorn in the flesh in his eyes, ordered a ring ruler. Xiao Wuzi was not convinced, and he contradicted again, and was finally ordered by Xiao Dezi to be locked in the timber room of Luoxue Pavilion in a fit of anger.

The lowly servants talked about it, and they all said that they had come through the difficulties together. Now that Concubine Ying is favored again, the minions below are also divided into high and low, and they are as glamorous as outsiders say.

On the ninth day of the eighth month of the eighth year of Yong'an, when there was no one at night, Lingxi called Xiao Wuzi to the inner hall of Luoxue Pavilion, and said to Xiao Wuzi, "I don't believe what the imperial doctor said, I want you to go directly to Rongcheng after leaving the palace." If you can find King Rui, ask King Rui about the news of Princess Allure. No matter what kind of message, I just want it to be true. ”

Xiao Wuzi was confused, "Niangniang, isn't the princess of Allure already sick?" ”

"No way, there must not be. The situation was chaotic back then, and most of the emperor did not send someone to find the princess of Allure. Lingxi said thoughtfully, "If King Rui is okay, then there will be two more hopes of finding the princess of Allure." If the King ......"

Seeing a touch of sorrow flashing in Lingxi's eyes, Xiao Wuzi knocked his head to the ground and said, "Don't worry, the slave will definitely complete what Niangniang explained." When the slave sees the princess of Allure, he must ask the princess of Allure to write you a letter to reassure you. ”

On the tenth day of the eighth month of the eighth year of Yong'an, Xiao Wuzi changed into a light blue medicine boy's clothes, and pulled up all his hair and combed the hairstyle of a medicine boy. With his head down, he carried five hundred taels of silver tickets plus a few pieces of jewelry and a hosta token in his arms, and left the palace with the imperial physician.

After Xiao Wuzi left, Lingxi began to wait anxiously. The days in the harem are more and more like years.

In the days when Lingxi had no intention of paying attention to the affairs of the harem, Cao Guifei became more and more loved by Emperor Yong'an. Every time I go to Changxin Palace to see Wen Jieyu, I will stay in the Changxia Palace in the end.

The concubines in the harem are also dodge, this Cao Guifei has not been visible for a year, how can she suddenly favor the sixth palace. There was not even a warning, and it became hot in vain.

Just when Cao Guifei regained her favor, explosive news came out of the harem again.

Yu Concubine in the Ruyi Palace has been pregnant with the dragon heir for more than two months.

Lingxi was shocked when he heard the news, and asked Xiao Dezi who came back and forth with round eyes, "Didn't you hear it wrong, Concubine Yu, are you talking about Concubine Yu?" ”

Xiao Dezi bowed his waist, frowned slightly, and said, "The slave heard me right, it was the Pan'er girl of the Ruyi Hall who said it herself." Miss Pan'er also asked the slave to turn to Niangniang, saying that Concubine Yu was pregnant, and she was afraid that she would not be able to come out to hang out, and asked Niangniang to go to the Ruyi Hall more when she had nothing to do, so that she could sit with Concubine Yu Niangniang more, and she should be relieved. ”

In the evening of the same day, Emperor Yong'an's edict to reward Yu Concubine came down. Lingxi really believed that Concubine Yu was really pregnant, and it was not as worried as she was in her heart.

After putting his heart down, Lingxi ordered Qiaozhu to prepare a congratulatory gift and sent it over with lotus leaves and Xiao Dezi in person.

When Lingxi came to the Ruyi Palace, the congratulatory gifts of Concubine Ying and Concubine Rou had already been given, because the relationship with Concubine Yu was only average, and their status was higher than Concubine Yu, so they just ordered the palace maid with a long palm in the palace to send it, and said a few words of joy and left.

Lingxi ordered Xiao Dezi to hand over the congratulatory gifts he brought to Yizhi, and he held the hand of the lotus leaf, bypassed the table where the congratulatory gifts were carried and entered the inner hall.

In the inner hall, Concubine Yu was sitting on a bamboo couch chatting with Pan'er. He wore a moon-white tulle palace dress and a cross bun on his head. The bun was decorated with a few white silver beaded flowers, and Hao's wrist was also wearing a mutton fat jade bracelet of the same color. The fair-skinned right hand caressed the lower abdomen, and a pair of beautiful eyes were full of smiles.

Seeing that Lingxi came in, Concubine Yu hurriedly stood up, did not salute, directly pulled Lingxi's hand and put it on her lower abdomen, and said with a smile, "Come and touch it, there is a small thing here." ”

Pan'er was also happy, and after taking notes on Lingxi, she reminded the concubine, "Niangniang, Concubine Yingniang has a prince." ”

Concubine Yu reacted at this time, her face turned red, she let go of Lingxi's hand, lowered her head and smiled, "I was happy in my heart, I forgot." ”

Lingxi took Concubine Yu's hand and sat down, her beautiful eyes swept around Concubine Yu's smooth and delicate face a few times, and said with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "If it weren't for the little guy here, how long would you hide it from me?" ”

Pan'er and Lotus Ye held hands and went out to make tea, leaving only Concubine Yu and Lingxi sitting in the hall.

Seeing that there was no one left, Lingxi put away the smile on his face and asked, "Haven't you been walking around, what is this for?" But there is a ...... from among your people."

The happy expression on Concubine Yu's face slowly faded, and her eyebrows raised slightly, "The Yu family is too big, and there are too many greedy people." Where is my own favor? To put it bigger, it is related to the Yu family's actions in the court, and to the smaller, it is related to the status of the father in the clan. When I was favored, they all thought of my goodness, and when I was not favored, they said that I occupied the position that the daughter of the Yu family should have...... It's easy to say that the time is short, but after a long time, it will inevitably make some people think bad things in their hearts and say something ugly......"

Lingxi's face was full of anger, "It's not that you didn't let the daughter who sent the Yu family in, don't you have twelve sisters who are like flowers and jade?" Let them go in one by one, as if this position is rare for you. ”

"Those who can get their hands on it have all come in." Concubine Yu looked out the window and sighed, "But no one can enter the emperor's eyes......"

"Let's go." Lingxi was afraid that Concubine Yu would think of these worries in her heart, so she took Concubine Yu's hand and comforted, "You can't hide from this for the rest of your life in the harem, so it's okay, when the emperor is born in the future, you will have a son with you, and you will have an explanation for your clan." It's just that you hide it so well, I don't even know ......"

Lingxi had a teasing smile on her face, stretched out her hand to pinch Concubine Yu as usual, and shrank back when she thought of Concubine Yu with her body.

Concubine Yu's cheeks were red with shame, and her eyes said affectionately, "It's also occasional, it's all unintentional willow ......."

"Oh, it turned out to be spring, when the willow branches sprouted." Lingxi chuckled lightly and continued to tease Yu Concubine, "It's not that I don't know what happened at that time, and I haven't returned to the palace at that time." ”

"Oops!" Concubine Yu's face was all red, and she said with watery eyes, "It's not spring, when the five princes all return to the Lingyan Palace...... I'm ignoring you, you're a serious person, and you're clinging to this idea. ”

Lingxi was already laughing loudly, rubbing his stomach, and said with a smile, "It turns out that it's all in May, and it's not going to be more than two months." ”

Pan'er and Lotus Ye came in with a tea cup from outside with a smile on their faces.

Pan'er put the teacup on the table and said to Lingxi, "Concubine Ying, my mother's face is small, don't tease her." ”

Lotus Ye put down the tea cup in his hand, tapped Pan'er with his shoulder, and whispered, "Last time, I saw the delicate embroidery of the plum branch on your handkerchief, go find me a pattern." ”

Concubine Yu raised her eyes and glanced at Pan'er, and Pan'er smiled and went down with lotus leaves.

Turning around, Concubine Yu reached out to pinch Lingxi's tender face, and said coquettishly, "As long as you are not in shape, laughing like that in front of the minion, where is there still a little bit of a concubine?" ”

Lingxi raised his hand and grabbed Yu Concubine's hand, and said with a smile, "It's different if you want to be a mother, this will think that others are not in shape." I don't know how you, the elder sister, arranged your twelve flowery sisters when you were in my temple. ”

"Okay, okay......" Concubine Yu hurriedly stopped Lingxi and said, "It's a chance for you, this little mouth is like a knife, and it doesn't stop." If you say more, don't come, lest you spoil the prince in my womb......"

"Cheng Chengcheng," Lingxi hurriedly stopped talking, and begged for mercy with a smile, "I can't say it if I don't say it, don't pick me up." ”

So the two stopped making trouble, sat on the bamboo couch and tidied up the skirt, helped some loose buns, and then picked up the tea cup and ate it.

While eating and chatting, the two talked about the topic again to Cao Guifei, who has been in strong favor recently.

Regarding Cao Guifei's shocking appearance, Lingxi smiled indifferently, "When I saw her in Zichen Hall that day, I knew that there would be such a day, but I didn't want it to be so fast." ”

"According to what you say, it means that the emperor has the heart to favor her." Concubine Yu said, "You said that Wen Jieyu is wearing a double body now, what is the emperor thinking?" Aren't you afraid that Wen Jieyu will have a wrong mind and move the tire? ”

Lingxi shook his head and chuckled, "The emperor's thoughts, which you and I can guess." There is now Cao Guifei on the left and right, and Concubine Rou can't hold me in her eyes. ”

Concubine Rou and Concubine Cao Guifei were not compatible before, but now Concubine Cao has regained her favor, except for Wen Jieyu, it is Concubine Rou who is the most itchy.

"That's fine, you can relax for a few days, Concubine Shan Rou and the Cao sisters are enough to watch." Concubine Yu smiled, "Concubine Cao and Wen Jieyu are both daughters of the Cao family, and they are carrying the glory of the Cao family. If Wen Jieyu gets the title of concubine, Cao Guifei will naturally be lower than Wen Jieyu everywhere, but I am afraid that life will be more difficult than when she is not favored. Don't look at Wen Jieyu who seems to be delicate, she is a ruthless master. She doesn't have the courage of the Zhu family, plus Concubine Rou ......"

"That's somebody else's business." Lingxi raised his eyes and looked at Yu Concubine, and said, "Now that you have one in your belly, you can't avoid right and wrong." You'd better be careful, don't ......"

Concubine Yu showed a sneer on her face, "The first one that can't protect me is that I am involved in the world, and I can't recognize the true face of the Zhu family." Now, if anyone dares to touch a finger of this child in my womb, I will show her what it means to beg for death. ”
