Chapter 60: Abortion
Three days later, the Jingshifang had done a good job of the green head card of the five new people who had entered the palace, and Sun Yuanyuan, who had the highest reputation and the best family background, did not get Chu Sheng's first favor because of a crime. It was the well-behaved and lovely Deng Liangren who got the first opportunity. On the day of the servant's bed, he was not only promoted to a position, but also received a title, called a spiritual talent.
In this way, more than a month passed, and the Forbidden City ushered in the first snow of the twelfth year of Yuanhe. After greeting the queen in the morning, Jinxin put the fox feather on Yu'er, and stuffed the stove in his arms into her hand. Just as she was about to help her get on the sedan chair, Yu'er looked at the white outside and waved her hand and ordered: "It's a shame not to see such a snowy scene, let's go back!" ”
"Yes!" Jinxin agreed, so he came up to help her and walked forward slowly.
On the long street, the continuous white snow adorns the whole world, and the solemn and majestic palace is now turned silver, and people can't open their eyes after looking at it for a long time. Yu'er blinked her eyes that were a little sore, Rao was like this, she still couldn't help but look at it, such a good scene really made people can't take their eyes off.
Yu'er, who was wandering in this silver world, suddenly saw stars in the distance, bright red, which was particularly dazzling in this world of heaven and earth. Yu'er stood still and took a closer look, but saw that the red was getting bigger and closer. When the red man came to him, Yu'er realized that the person who came was the Jiuye King and his wife. The dazzling red was the big red hair on the princess's body, and even the wind hair on the big hair was as red as blood. Princess Jiuye really loves this red. I saw her hiring Tingting to stand in front of her, holding a few newly folded plum branches in her arms, and most of the plum blossoms on it were budding and waiting to be released, which was particularly gratifying.
Yu'er hurriedly bent her knees to say goodbye, "The concubine has seen the prince and the princess!" ”
King Jiuye smiled at the corner of his mouth, and replied lightly: "You don't have to be polite to your concubine!" ”
Princess Jiuye also smiled kindly, looked at Yu'er for a moment, and said half-loudly: "The concubine used to feel that this white was too light, and she never liked white clothes. ”
Yu'er smiled modestly and replied respectfully: "The princess said that she laughed, the princess has a scorching demeanor, who dares to talk about her appearance in front of you!" ”
Princess Jiuye lowered her head and smiled, as if she didn't take Yu'er's words to heart. When she looked up, she had already changed her delicate and moving look, and I saw her looking at her husband beside her affectionately, and asked playfully; "What do you think, Lord Wang?"
King Jiuye didn't expect her to ask such a question, and coughed lightly twice in embarrassment. Yu'er was curious for a moment and didn't know how King Jiuye would answer, so she looked at him with a playful expression.
Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, King Jiuye shook his head with a wry smile, "Half a catty and eight taels, each has its own merits, and each has its own beauty!" It depends on which one people like! Yu'er saw that no one could be offended by his clever answer, so she had no intention of staying any longer, and was just about to say goodbye, but she heard Princess Jiuye's soft voice ringing in her ears again, "Then which one does the prince like?" As he spoke, he climbed up to the arm of the person beside him affectionately, leaning slightly on his body.
At this time, even Yu'er couldn't help frowning, but saw King Jiuye gently pull his arm out of the princess's arms, and quietly moved a step to the side. His eyes swept lightly over Yu'er's face, and he replied with a little helplessness: "This king naturally likes the princess's warm and uninhibited temperament, otherwise how could he marry you into the door!" Princess Jiuye got the answer she wanted, Rao was bold and unrestrained, she also blushed, and replied prettyly: "The prince is used to making fun of people!" ”
Yu'er just didn't hear it, her eyes looked straight ahead without waves, Princess Jiuye secretly glanced at her, and said: "Don't be surprised, Niangniang, our prince is going to laugh with the concubine!" As he spoke, he didn't forget to give King Jiuye a coquettish look.
Yu'er only smiled decently, opened her mouth lightly, and replied: "The princess said that she was laughing, the princess and the princess were in a row, and others were envious and not envious!" As he spoke, he replied on his knees, "There are still some things to deal with in the palace of the concubine, so I won't bother the prince and the princess to enjoy the snow, and the concubine will retire first!" ”
Back in the palace, Yu'er only felt a little annoyed, those jealous things in the harem had already made her tired of coping, this princess Jiuye didn't do it, and she even participated in it, I don't know when I offended her, and I have to compare myself with each other every time I see her.
In the Yikun Palace, Chu Ning was also unhappy, and the princess looked at her face secretly sad. The henchman who followed the prince into Beijing sent someone back to deliver a letter to him, saying that there was something wrong with the prince and he had compassion for the jade concubine in the harem.
She understood that this was just a vague statement from the messenger, and she was afraid that her husband had thoughts about the woman that she shouldn't have. Since he married him, nearly ten years have passed, and outsiders seem to be a deep love and a match made in heaven, only he understands that his heart has never been in this palace, otherwise he would not have been childless for so many years.
When I first entered the palace and saw the jade concubine who was favored by others, I felt that I was a little worthless in looking for a husband for thousands of miles, but she was just an ordinary woman with a delicate appearance, where could I charm his husband who was high and wide and light in the clouds that day.
But when Yikun Palace set up a banquet and saw Chu Ning's eyes on her face, she knew that sometimes a man doesn't need so many reasons for being emotional about a woman, he has already lost this game, but he is still unwilling, and he still has to compare everywhere, in the end, he is the serious princess and his wife.
Chu Ning looked back, saw the uncertain look on the princess's face, and sighed quietly, "It's been a few days since you entered Beijing, don't you have to worry about things in the palace?" ”
The princess was stunned for a moment when she heard him say this, and then understood that he wanted to send herself back, and her hand in the wide sleeves of the delicate lace couldn't help but tighten and tighten, "The affairs in the palace, the concubine has been ordered properly when she comes, and now that the prince is not in the mansion, there is nothing important about it, and it is the same whether the concubine goes back or not!" Princess Jiuye replied, although she was sentimental in her heart, she still maintained the calm and calm she should have.
Chu Ning was helpless, some things couldn't be said too much, otherwise he would not only hurt his face, but he was afraid that he would not even be able to keep his lizi, he had always known that although the princess had a strong temperament, she had always been a smart woman, but she was afraid that she already understood what she meant. But he still said uneasily: "That's good!" It's just that the palace is not like the palace, and the princess has an upright temperament, and sometimes it is better to collect some! ”
The princess's face turned pale, although Chu Ning's heart has not been in her all these years, she still respects each other like a guest in the end, not to mention that she spoils herself everywhere but she has never said a word of seriousness, and now she blames herself for the person who will never be possible. Thinking like this, she only felt even more aggrieved, and a layer of mist was already covered in a pair of good-looking eyes.
Seeing her like this, Chu Ning couldn't bear to look at it anymore and didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only stand up and leave a sentence, "The emperor is still waiting for me to discuss the matter." Then he hurried out. The princess was left alone to weep at his back.
The New Year is approaching, and Li Xiyue's belly is gradually getting bigger. The queen was angry and was losing her temper in Fengning Palace. Kneeling down were the trembling Su'er and Wu Cairen who had just entered the palace. After Wu Cairen went to bed, although she was promoted according to the rules, she was not given a title, so it seems that she is not as loved by Chu Sheng as Lingcairen. Her father was in the same cabinet as Concubine Shugui's father, and she also had a pivotal position in the previous dynasty, and now it seems that she has been incorporated by the queen and has become her sword minion.
"Niangniang, the concubine has thought of many ways, but first, Yingyue Palace is really well prepared, and secondly, since the concubine entered the palace, she had a problem with Concubine Xian, and there was really no chance to start." Su'er kowtowed and replied truthfully.
The queen slapped the table, obviously angry, and scolded hatefully: "Waste! What does the palace want you to do, now that there are two princes in the palace, is it that one day the queen's position in the palace will be handed over?! ”
When the two heard the queen say this, their faces turned a little whiter, kowtowed, and murmured back: "Niang Niang is angry!" Mother's anger! ”
The queen ignored them, stood up and coldly dropped a sentence, "If Concubine Xian gives birth safely, this palace is afraid that you will not be safe!" With that, no matter how the two begged for mercy, they helped Shiyue's hand and entered the inner room.
Su'er only felt that there were layers of cold sweat on her forehead, and her body was so soft that she couldn't stand up, so she hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and couldn't bear to persuade: "The little master doesn't have to be in such a hurry, but there are still some days before the child is born, let's think about it again!" As he spoke, he helped the white-faced Su'er out.
Walking on the way back to the palace, Su'er still couldn't help but tremble frequently, she didn't know where she should go, she didn't have the good luck of her sister, she couldn't get the emperor's affection and pity, and she didn't have a good family background to rely on...... Who knew that he was in such a dilemma until now.
If the master of the opinion is like this, it is distressing. Carefully sorted out the big one for her, and carefully persuaded: "Little master, why don't we go to the Splendid Palace and ask the Yugui concubine!" ”
Su'er closed her eyes helplessly, this time I was afraid that my sister would not help her! But in the end, he still listened to Ruyi's persuasion and slowly walked towards the Splendid Palace.
In the warm pavilion of the Splendid Palace, Yu'er was lazily reclining on the chaise longue and peeling citrus to eat, and the second prince was being coaxed by the nurse to giggle and laugh. The child's cute and cute look made Yu'er, Charlene, and Lingcai all smile.
The three people who were immersed in the warmth of a room were stunned when they saw the look on the face of Su'er who came in from the outside curtain. Yu'er steadied herself and took the lead in asking, "Where did you come from on this cold day?" After Charlene and Lingcai and Su'er greeted each other, they saw her face and knew that she must have something to discuss with Yu'er, so they all retired and walked out, and the nurse also shirked the second prince and hugged him.
Ruyi retreated for Su'er and helped her sit down beside Yu'er. glanced at Jinxin, and the two also withdrew, so that the warm pavilion that was still lively just now suddenly left the two sisters to sit silently.
Yu'er sat up straight and asked with concern, "You've been so busy lately, I can't even be free to talk to you." Why is your face so ugly today, what happened? ”
"Sister~" Before she could speak, she fell into two lines of tears.
"What the hell is going on?" When Yu'er saw her like this, she knew that she must have encountered something extremely rare, otherwise she would never cry easily in front of people with her strong temperament.
"The queen found me today, ordered me to remove the child in Concubine Xian's womb, and said that if her child is safe, then I will be safe in the future!" Su'er couldn't help crying as she spoke.
Although Yu'er was mentally prepared, she was still frightened by these words. She always knew that the queen was not a soft-hearted person, and the virtuous concubine was not a good person, but the child in her womb was so innocent, and she was also a mother, so she compared her heart to how to be ruthless.
Seeing that she was only stunned and didn't speak, Su'er couldn't help but call out softly, "Sister! ~~ What the hell should I do? ”
Yu'er looked at the tearful Su'er and finally couldn't bear it, shook her head and replied: "Don't worry, let me think about it carefully!" ”
After a while, Yu'er only felt that there was still chaos in her mind and couldn't figure it out, and then she looked at her praying eyes, and said embarrassedly: "Queen, is there no room for turnaround?" ”
Su'er shook her head, "Sister should know her temperament, which child in the palace can escape her palm!" ”
When Yu'er heard this, she chuckled in her heart, could it be that her own Jing'er ...... At the beginning, it was believed that Chen Lixin was the one who committed the poison, but there was no real evidence, and now that I think about it, the queen is not without suspicion.
Seeing that the face of the elder sister above was cloudy, Su'er asked puzzledly, "What does my sister think?" ”
"Su'er, you tell me the truth, is it also the queen's ...... about King Rui's poisoning" Yu'er's face once again had a fierce look, as long as everything was touched by King Rui, she always couldn't see it.
Su'er's already pale face turned a little pale with fright, and she hurriedly shook her head and replied: "Sister, the queen didn't say such things to me, it shouldn't be her hand, didn't my sister know that the person who poisoned her was the crazy woman Chen!" ”
Yu'er knows that her sister has always been close to the queen, but no matter how close she is, she will go past their own sisters, if the queen's hand is bound to tell herself, I am afraid that she is cranky again! Hurriedly gathered his mind and suppressed the resentment in his heart, and replied: "What you said is true! It's me who cares! ”
Seeing that she no longer doubted, the fear and uneasiness in her heart eased a lot, and her pale face finally turned bloody again, and she asked urgently: "It's just that this time about Concubine Xian, according to my sister, what should I do to protect myself?" ”
"This matter is very important, and I don't have any good ideas for a while, don't worry, let me think about it carefully!" Yu'er slowly persuaded.
"Okay, then I'll go back first, if my sister thinks of something, she must come and tell me!"
Yu'er nodded, still not forgetting to persuade her, "That's nature, you can relax, don't worry about getting sick on this cold day, there will always be a way!" ”
