Pushing open the window and looking out, a bright yellow autumn color came into view. Even the chrysanthemums placed outside are only yellow and white, and they are indescribably dull and boring.

The more Ruan looked at these, the more she felt that the days of this Piaoying Yuan were too lonely and bitter, and her heart was full of sourness.

"Niangniang, you are pregnant, and you can't be blowing in the wind for a long time. The fetal pill is available, and it is just warm enough to be able to take the mouth. When Huan Pei walked in, he found Concubine Ying standing by the window stupidly, and she couldn't help but say a few words of relief. The slave maid heard that the harem has not been peaceful in the past few days, and the emperor is busy cleaning up the palace, so he has no time to come over to accompany you to talk. Don't worry too much about it, either. ”

"The emperor won't come, and I won't be allowed to see ......" Soft Errao sighed: "Do you say that the emperor knows that I am pregnant with a prince, so he is relieved." As long as I give birth to the child smoothly and hand it over to the queen to raise, it is the best arrangement. Therefore, I can only stay in the palace quietly and take care of the fetus well. It doesn't matter who I am, what my mind is, is it? ”

"Mother, how can you think so. The emperor asked people to send stews every day, and asked the Internal Affairs Bureau to make a lot of clothes, hats and socks, which shows that he cares about you and the little prince. The slave always feels that the emperor is afraid that the messy things in the harem will implicate you. I am also afraid that the people in this palace have ill intentions, and if they have any bad thoughts, it will harm you. That's why I used this method to leave you in Piaoyingyuan, but I actually wanted to protect it more thoughtfully. ”

"You're really good at talking." Ruan Er lowered her eyebrows and looked at Huan Pei, and said with a smile: "In this world, you are the only one who is good to me, and only you are willing to accompany me." Whether it was the embarrassment of my family back then, or the detention of the Queen Mother three years ago, I followed me without complaint......"

"Miss." Huanpei frowned because she said the word "detention". "The Queen Mother saved us after all. Otherwise, we were afraid that we would also be in Fireworks Willow Lane back then. ”

"yes." Ruan Er smiled slightly: "It was the Queen Mother who saved us." ”

Soft Erda was dissatisfied with such a "life-saving grace", but he was helpless. "Fortunately, everything is fine now."

"Yes." This sentence can be regarded as talking about the heart of Huanpei. "As soon as the young lady enters the palace, she is the concubine and the mother, and she is envious of others. was the first to be pregnant, which is a good blessing that even the favored queen mother can't ask for. The slave always feels that the emperor treats you very much, you will definitely be a mother and a child, if this child can become a ...... in the future"

"Don't say it, don't say it." Joor quickly interrupted her. "What is to come, I will think about it in the future. Right now, I just hope that this child can be born safely and healthily, and that he can grow up well, and it would be great if he could stay with me any longer. ”

"yes." Huan Pei was relieved: "There will be a way." Maybe I gave birth to a child, and the emperor saw that the child was cute, and thanked you for your hard work, maybe he would keep the child by your side. ”

"I hope so." Ruan Er gently stroked her belly, her face full of tenderness: "It is said that when we meet, I have to let the emperor see all the difficulties of me carrying this child." I have to let the emperor know that this is our flesh and blood, and we can't send it to someone else......"

"Yes." Huan Pei said with a smile: "There will always be a way, Miss should drink the fetal pill first." ”

"Hmm." Joor picked up the bowl and drank it with a smile.

As soon as he put down the medicine bowl, the door was vigorously pushed open, and a cool breeze poured in.

Although through the screen of cherry blossoms, it still made Soft Er take a breath of cool air. The cool air poured into the bitter decoction and swallowed it, and her heart hurt a little.

"Who is so reckless, don't you know that Concubine Yingniang is taking fetal pills? I didn't even get through it, and I ......" Huanpei huffed around the screen to look, but because the person in front of him suddenly knelt down. "The slave maid greets the Queen Mother."

"Queen Mother......" Ruan Er was also quite surprised, how could a good Queen Mother come. She hurriedly got up, walked over quickly, and saluted respectfully: "I haven't greeted the Queen Mother from afar, it's the concubine who is rude, and I ask the Queen Mother to forgive me." ”

"Drinking tocolytics?" The Queen Mother rolled her eyelids, and said with some displeasure: "What, these days are recuperating, and your body is good?" ”

"Thank you for the care of the Queen Mother, everything is fine with the concubine." Ruan Er smiled and walked to the Queen Mother's side and helped the Queen Mother to sit down. "Huanpei, don't go make tea yet."

"Yes." Huan Pei got up this time and retreated. Just looking at the face of the Queen Mother, you know that the person who came is not good. Her heart was very uncomfortable.

"The Queen Mother came over at this time, did she have anything important to tell her concubines?" Ruan smiled all over her face, trying to hide her dissatisfaction in the bottom of her heart.

"How dare the mourners command you? You are now delicate and expensive, and you are so cared for by the emperor's decree, you don't even have to go out of the palace gate. The queen is also a delicate person, and when she sends something to your palace on weekdays, she has instructed that it must be seen by the imperial doctor. You are blessed to have this grace. The Queen Mother stiffened her face and her tone was not good.

How could Ruan Er not hear the Queen Mother's thoughts, and hurriedly saluted the Queen Mother: "The concubine is stupid, and now she can receive the grace of the Holy Grace, completely relying on the Queen Mother's grace." If it weren't for the queen mother's life-saving grace, I'm afraid that the concubines would not have lived now. Although the concubines are dull, they understand the truth that the grace of dripping water springs to reciprocate, but if they can serve the queen mother, the concubines must be tied to the grass and work hard. ”

The Queen Mother smiled painlessly, and her tone was full of irony: "How dare the mourning family let you tie the grass ring, you haven't used thirty percent of your strength, and you have already made the mourning family so troublesome." If you try your best again, won't you even have to take the life of the mourning family together. ”

"The Queen Mother is angry." Joor quickly fell to his knees.

Huan Pei, who came in with hot tea, was also frightened, and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt behind Ruan Er.

"The concubine is stupid, I really don't know what is wrong, and I ask the Queen Mother to make it clear." Ruan Er felt aggrieved, and her eyes were slightly red. When looking at the Queen Mother, the thin layer of mist under her eyes is really pitiful. made the Queen Mother embarrassed to blame her.

"Look, let's see." The Queen Mother frowned slightly: "These eyes are so dramatic." Not to mention the emperor, even the mourning family felt pitiful when they looked at it. I wanted to help her up myself and comfort her. ”

Lei Zhen nodded: "What the Queen Mother said is extremely true, even the slaves and maids can't bear to see Concubine Ying kneeling like this." ”

While speaking, Lei Zhen got the instructions of the Queen Mother and stepped forward to help her up. "Concubine Yingniang, you are pregnant, this set of etiquette can naturally be avoided. Otherwise, if the action is too big and too violent, and it hurts the dragon fetus, wouldn't it be a waste of the queen mother's grace, and I can't live the emperor's pity. ”

"Queen Mother......" Ruan Er didn't pay attention to Lei Zhen, but just looked at her with a choked voice: "The concubine really doesn't know what she did wrong, so I beg the Queen Mother to make it clear and give the concubine a chance to change." ”

"You're too good at acting." The Queen Mother frowned displeasedly: "But the mourning family has lived in this palace for so many years, what kind of fox has not been seen." No matter how well you act, it's fake, and you can't escape the eyes of the mourning family after all. ”

"The Queen Mother's ......"

The Queen Mother glanced at her with contempt, and her tone was slightly hard: "How did the queen get hurt?" ”

This sentence made Soft Er's mind boom. looked at the Queen Mother's eyes more and more distracted. "The concubine doesn't know, please ask the queen mother to find out."

"Really?" The Queen Mother's eyes stared straight at her stomach: "It's okay if you don't admit it." The emperor values the queen now, even if this matter catches the wind and catches the shadows, as long as the spearhead is pointed at you, the emperor has doubts in his heart, and he will not let you believe it better? ”

"Queen Mother." Seeing the Queen Mother get up to leave, Ruan Er suddenly knelt in front of the Queen Mother and tightly protected the Queen Mother's knees. "It's the concubine who is not good, it's the concubine who is confused for a while. I thought that if I was careful about doing such a thing, I would not leave a trace. The concubine didn't expect that the matter would be poked out, and she didn't know that instead of achieving her wish, she also implicated herself, and the concubine was stupid. ”

"You're stupid." The Queen Mother knocked her on the forehead hard. The red gold and ruby bracelet on his wrist knocked very loudly.

Ruan endured the pain and didn't dare to say anything.

"If you're just tying yourself in, the mourners don't care at all. Over the years, the women sent to the emperor by the mourning family have not been one hundred but fifty, and you are the first to get pregnant, but definitely not the last. Even if the mourning family doesn't need you, what's the matter. But you are stupid, you can, but you can't even affect the mourning family. Now there is tension in the harem, and there are undercurrents surging, and all the bad things point to the battle for phoenix power between the mourning family and the queen. You poisoned the queen at this time, how do you think the emperor will be suspicious? Do you know that you were imprisoned in this Piaoying Garden to raise a baby with peace of mind, and the dark web of the harem that the mourning family has worked hard for decades has been ruined by your confusion at this time. At present, the emperor has found out all the secret whistles of the mourning family, and the entire harem has been washed with blood, from the political affairs of the court to the disharmony of the concubines, none of the mourning families can still be handy. You have really done a great thing, you simply picked up a knife and stabbed the mourner in the chest for the queen! The mourning family is even a little confused, is your savior the queen or the mourning family? ”

"Queen Mother......" Ruan Er never expected that this matter would be exposed so easily, and it was widely implicated. Her heart was about to jump out of her chest, but she desperately warned herself that for the sake of the child in her womb, she must hold on. "It's all the concubine's fault, it's the concubine's ignorance and stupidity, and the concubine's lack of thoughtfulness...... Concubine ......"

The Queen Mother clamped her jaw, and her eyes shone with a cold light: "Ruan Er, the mourning family might as well speak out." If it weren't for the fact that you still have a piece of meat in your stomach, the mourning family would have broken you into thousands of pieces. You can enter the palace thanks to your face. Whenever the mourning family picks you up, they step on you. Don't think that with the emperor's grace and a little cleverness, you can be proud in front of the mourning family. ”

"The concubine doesn't dare, the concubine is the person trained by the Queen Mother, and everything the concubine has depends on the protection of the Queen Mother." Ruan Er's face turned blue with fright, and her body couldn't help trembling: "From now on, no matter what the concubines do, they will only obey the orders of the Queen Mother, and they will never dare to make their own decisions again." ”

"If you are so obedient and sensible, the mourning family doesn't have to bother to come over." Only then did the Queen Mother let go. Seeing that her fair skin was pinched out of two red marks, I felt a little relieved. "Listen, the most important thing at the moment is to give birth to this prince for the emperor. In the future, the mourning family will ask the emperor to nod and send the child to the mourning palace to be raised. Your child must not be given to the queen. This matter is not yet ripe, and it is not too late to plan for the future. That's it, weigh it yourself. ”

"The concubines remember the teachings of the Queen Mother." Ruan Er lay on the ground, and it was not until the queen mother's master and servant left that she was helped up by Huanpei.

"Miss, you've suffered." Huanpei's eyes were red, and he couldn't do it. "It's all slaves and maids who are not good, and things are not done neatly. But the slave and maid did their best to take care of this matter that day, how could the queen mother hold the evidence? ”

"That's it." It was as if she had been soaked in water, and her close-fitting clothes were soaked with sweat. "Go get me some nice clothes to change into."

"Yes." Huan Pei obediently went to pick up her clothes, used hot water, wiped her body, and then changed her clothes quickly. "Does Miss feel unwell in anything? Do you want to ask the imperial doctor to take a look? ”

"Not necessarily." Ruan Er's stomach was stroked, and Rin frowned: "My child will definitely be as strong as me, this little setback, it will be fine." ”

"But the slave maid is worried that the emperor is ...... because of this matter," Huanpei became more and more uneasy. If ......"

Ruan Er shook her head lightly, and her tone was firm: "The Queen Mother will not let the emperor know." Since this matter has reached the ears of the Queen Mother, for the sake of her own status, the Queen Mother will definitely wipe it clean. After all, she said it herself, and the emperor was suspicious that she couldn't help but attack the queen. She wants to end the matter more than we do. ”

"Miss is right to say that." Huan Pei was still unsure: "Do you want the slave to secretly check, why is it revealed?" ”

"No need." Ruan got into the soft bed and closed her eyes: "My feet are so cold, you go and make a stove." ”

"Yes." Huan Pei nodded neatly.

Joor never opened his eyes, but he couldn't sleep at all. Even though the soles of her feet were warmed by the stove and it wasn't so cold anymore, she still couldn't sleep. In the palace, if one thing is not done properly, it is enough to be fatal. The Queen Mother was implicated because of this, and those who lost their troops and generals will inevitably not be able to swallow this breath. Her child may be able to save her when she is in her womb, but once the child is taken away, it is too easy for the Queen Mother to want her life.

What to do? What can I do to save myself from this predicament?

Soft Er was uneasy, and only felt that there were stones pressing down on her. No matter how much she rolls over, it won't help.

Simply approved the clothes, she walked to the dresser barefoot, looked at the face in the mirror, really like the Queen Mother said, she relied on this face to get the grace of God. When the emperor saw her, he was just thinking about the person in the past, so what should he do to make the emperor really pity her?

How can he become the one who dwells in his heart?
