Qianqian . , the fastest update of the latest chapter of Xiang Wife Ruyu!
Yuezhu's heart was shocked, and she said in a trembling voice; "What does the princess mean by wanting to give birth to a son to the prince?"
Yongning shook his head, as if he thought Yuezhu's words were ridiculous, and gently hooked his lips, "How come, he and I are just a nominal husband and wife, and there is no possibility of a skin-to-skin blind date in our lifetime." ”
"Princess!" Yuezhu's face changed, "The coming day is long, the princess has true feelings for the prince, the prince is confused by Concubine Dong now, and one day he will understand." ”
Yongning's face was as usual, and he spoke in a low voice: "At the beginning, I begged my uncle to return to the new emperor, and my uncle's condition was that I should give birth to a son with the blood of the Yuan family, and in the future, my uncle will support this child to ascend the throne, which can be regarded as the continuation of the bloodline of the Yuan family." ”
"Isn't that great?" Yuezhu looked at Yongning puzzled.
"Okay?" Yongning chewed on the word, a trace of desolation appeared in his eyes, and said slowly; "What's the good, I have fallen to this point myself, it is completely self-inflicted, why do I have to give birth to a child and suffer with me."
Yuezhu's heart was sour, thinking of Yongning's current situation, she was speechless, maybe in the eyes of others, Yongning's status is noble and high, but the bitterness in her heart is only known to herself, whether it is the emperor or the queen mother, or Liang Bozhao, Zuo Xiang, these people, who has ever been sincere to her?
"Princess, why are you so troubled, there is a long way to go in the future, you always have to plan for yourself."
Yongning smiled faintly and nodded; "yes, plan for yourself."
When Yuezhu heard this, her eyes lit up and blurted out; "The princess has an idea?"
Yongning bowed his head slightly and said slowly; "Yuezhu, the deep palace is lonely, I want a child, I want a child of his."
Yuezhu was a little puzzled and whispered; "Princess, didn't you say that you don't want to have a child and suffer with you..."
"I am a member of the Yuan family, and he will never want a child with the blood of the Yuan family."
"The princess means to let other women...."Yuezhu's face gradually turned pale.
"Not bad," Yongning said in a clear voice, word for word; "In two days, there will be the enthronement ceremony, and there can't be only two women in this palace, the Ministry of Rites is already selecting a show girl for him to fill the harem."
"But the slave maid heard that the prince has not been close to a woman for more than a year, and there is not even a concubine beside him except Concubine Dong, even..." Even Concubine Dong was injured after giving birth and couldn't sleep, and the prince didn't look for the woman next to her. ”
Yongning nodded, his eyes were as bright as water, "He has a deep affection for Concubine Dong, and it is really rare to be able to do this." ”
"Not really," Yuezhu pursed her lips; "I don't know how many women sharpened their heads and wanted to drill into the palace, but he just liked that Concubine Dong, the slave really didn't know what Concubine Dong was good about, she was a little family, and she didn't give birth to a son, but she fascinated the prince like this..."
Yongning raised his eyes and said softly; "Concubine Dong has the benefits of Concubine Dong, but he.... Just a man after all. ”
"What do you mean by that, princess?"
There was a faint light in Yongning's eyes, and his voice was inaudible; "People have seven emotions and six desires, and he is in his prime, even if he is self-disciplined, but in the end he is also a man, since he is a man, there will always be times when he can't control himself."
Yuezhu's eyes lit up, and she immediately understood the meaning of Yongning's words, in the final analysis, no matter how powerful Liang Bozhao is, he is just an ordinary man, no man will resist the temptation of beauty, not to mention, he has not been close to a woman for a long time.
"What is the princess going to do?" Yuezhu also lowered his voice.
Yongning was silent for a moment, and then softly commanded a word, Yuezhu couldn't help nodding, and when Yongning finished speaking, Yuezhu just wanted to retreat, but Yongning called her again; "Wait."
"Does the princess have any orders?"
Yongning closed his eyes, took out a jade pendant from his arms, slowly rested it on the table, and said to Yuezhu; "Send this jade pendant to Qin Chu Tower, the rest, you don't need me to say, you know what to do."
Yuezhu carefully put away the jade pendant and said; "The slave understands."
"Go ahead." Yongning said lightly.
Yuezhu hesitated a little, and did not leave immediately, but sighed; "The princess's heart is still too kind, the prince is entangled in everything, there will always be times when he can't protect their mother and daughter, if the princess wants the life of their mother and daughter, it is as easy as a snap, why bother so much effort, wouldn't it be easy to end it directly?"
Yongning's eyebrows frowned, and the phoenix's eyes suddenly reprimanded; "Yuezhu, your courage is getting bigger and bigger."
"The princess forgives her sins." Yuezhu panicked and immediately knelt down.
Yongning took a deep breath, looked at the lotus pond outside the palace with a pair of beautiful eyes, and whispered; "Their mother and daughter are the people of his heart, and if I hurt his wife and children, what is the difference between hurting him? What's more, Jiu'er is his daughter. ”
After speaking, Yongning paused, and after a while, he continued; "I just want a child, I don't want to care about the rest, I don't need to care, I just need a child with his blood flowing through it, and I'm enough."
Yufu Palace.
The two elders of the Dong family are the first time to see their granddaughter, Xu is blood is thicker than water, Jiu'er does not recognize life, and goes straight to Dong's mother's arms, Dong's mother holds the child, keeps shedding tears, and shouts vigorously in her mouth; "It's so big...."
Ning Xiang was also full of tears, seeing that Tian and his brother did not enter the palace with their parents, and when they asked, they learned that Dong Huaihu heard that his brother-in-law was about to ascend the throne and become the emperor, but he was so frightened that he didn't know what to do.
As for Chunsheng, he is eighteen years old this year, and he is no longer the little brother who followed Ning Xiang and called her sister with snot, he has grown taller and grown up, and he is a head taller than Ning Xiang. Ning Xiang looked at the younger brother in front of her, and couldn't help but have mixed feelings in her heart, if it wasn't for this younger brother who was playful and secretly went to the river to take a bath, and happened to be rescued by Liang Bozhao who was passing by when he drowned, how could there be these involvements later? How can she and Liang Bozhao have such a fate?
Speaking of which, I really have to thank Chunsheng.
Ning Xiang curled her lips and choked at her brother; "Chunsheng has also grown up, taller than me...."Before he finished speaking, tears fell.
The family hasn't seen each other for a long time, and there are endless words when they get together, Dong's mother looked at Yufu Palace, couldn't stop smacking her lips and exclaiming, looking at her daughter's white and gentle little face, and said with emotion; "Xiang girl, don't you remember, the people in the village used to say that you were beautiful, and you were going to be a mother for the emperor in the future, you don't want to be a mother soon, it's really accurate!"
Ning Xiang thought about it herself, and she also felt in a trance, she was just an ordinary village girl in Luokou Village, how many lifetimes of blessings could she meet a man like Liang Bozhao, be by his side, and be his wife?
The Yufu Palace was lively, and I heard the shrill voice of the inner servant sounding outside the palace, and it was Liang Bozhao who came.
Ning Xiang knew that he was busy with everything, and he didn't expect him to come, and the second elder of the Dong family heard that his son-in-law was coming, so he hurriedly stood up, and when he saw the tall figure, the two elders were trembling, and before he could say a word, he knelt down and saluted.
Liang Bozhao immediately supported the two of them, and only said in his mouth; "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, please get up."
Only then did the second elder dare to look at Liang Bozhao, the man in front of him was dressed in a dark clothes, with a five-clawed golden dragon embroidered on his chest, black and high, and his eyebrows were sharp, how could there be any trace of the shadow of the past when he was in Luokou Village?
The second elder knew that Liang Bozhao was about to become the emperor, where did he dare to talk to him, only to be sneering, Liang Bozhao asked a few words, and the second elder replied, Liang Bozhao couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw this, he was here, it was inevitable that the second elder was uncomfortable, plus he was busy with political affairs, and he didn't stay long, so he got up and left.
The second elder stood up in a panic, and didn't know how to send it off, Ning Xiang appeased his parents, and only let his mother's family wait in the inner hall, and he sent his husband out.
When he arrived at the side hall, Liang Bozhao didn't care about the presence of the palace people, so he only stopped his waist and hugged Ning Xiang, Ning Xiang's face turned red, he glanced around, and whispered; "Don't mess around, so many people..."
Liang Bozhao smiled, although he had only seen it in the morning, he was still worried in his heart, and even when dealing with government affairs, he would often think of Ning Xiang, just thinking of coming to Yufu Palace and holding her in his arms.
He stretched out his fingers, stroked Ning Xiang's cheek, and said softly; "I'll go to the Yuanyi Hall later, and you can accompany your father-in-law and mother-in-law for lunch, and I won't come."
Ning Xiang pursed her lips and smiled; "It's good that you can't come, you have to come, I'm just afraid that my father and mother won't be able to eat."
Liang Bozhao pinched her earlobe, lowered his head and imprinted a kiss on her lips, and whispered; "Wait for me at night."
Ning Xiang's face turned red again, seeing that he was leaving, she was also reluctant, and she felt sorry for him running back and forth, and couldn't help but say angrily; "Daddy is not an outsider, so I want you to come here."
Liang Bozhao raised his lips and whispered in her ear; "Fool, if I didn't want to come to see you, why would I come here."
Ning Xiang felt a sweetness in her heart, her soft face was white and red, it was really Chu Chu lovely, Liang Bozhao leaned over and kissed her forehead, brushed up the broken hair for her, and whispered a few words before leaving the Yufu Palace and rushing towards the Yuanyi Palace.
Ning Xiang looked at her husband's back, only to feel that she was shy and happy, and even when she returned to the palace, the corners of her lips were also shy, Dong's mother saw it in her eyes, and finally put her heart at ease, and when she looked at Ning Xiang like this, she knew that her son-in-law treated her very well.
After lunch, an attendant sent the Dong family out of the palace, Ning Xiang hugged the child and watched the relatives go away, because now that the parents, brothers and sisters-in-law are in Beijing, it is easy to meet in the future, but there is no reluctance to part, only waving Jiu'er's little hand to say goodbye to his parents.
After returning to the palace, it didn't take long for someone to spread the word, saying that Wen Po had arrived.
