Mingzhu said strangely: "Is there much more in this cup?" Didn't you say that the first emperor left it to the king of Lin'an? ”

Mulberry smiled: "As for the things in the palace, there is never only one thing like this, and there are usually two or three sets of spare." He lowered his voice and explained to her: "This is also the mutual consideration of the people below, otherwise if someone accidentally breaks it with the wrong hand and loses it, and the top points to this, won't everyone be unlucky?" Even if they are tribute-payers, they are afraid that if the road is broken, it will be difficult to escape the involvement. ”

That's right. Mingzhu really didn't know these things before, but when he bought porcelain at home, he would have two more sets of porcelain, and if one of them was broken, he would destroy one set.

Mulberry said: "The princess or?" If so, the slave and maid will go and find it for you. ”

If it was in the past, Mingzhu would definitely have responded unceremoniously, but at this moment, she had a gap with the Empress Dowager, and she was afraid that the Empress Dowager would be unhappy, so she hurriedly waved her hand and refused. Mulberry knew her worries and comforted her: "Don't get in the way, the princess is the princess who loves her the most, where will she be reluctant to make such a set of cups." The slave and maid will look for it first, and send it to you when the time is right. ”

Mingzhu returned to his seat, and quietly took his hand to Yu Wenchu behind his back: "Is it clean?" ”

Yu Wenchu smiled slightly: "It's clean." ”

When a palace man came to announce the summons, the husband and wife both stood up and walked out. Walking to the bottom of the corridor, I saw Aunt Mu leading Yuwenfu out of the main hall, Yuwenfu was crying while walking, his eyes were red and swollen like peaches, Aunt Mu had been whispering to comfort him, but her expression was very solemn.

Mingzhu subconsciously wanted to step forward and ask what was going on, but Yu Wenchu immediately pulled her sleeve and said in a low voice, "Don't go." ”

Mingzhu immediately deflated, yes, she still can't protect herself, she can't do anything in the past, and she may not be able to ask anything.

Realizing that she was depressed, Yu Wenchu quietly took her hand and squeezed it to show relief. Mingzhu cheered up and smiled at him.

Liao Guang had already left, and the Empress Dowager was sitting behind the bookcase to review the folds, and when she saw them coming in, she smiled: "It's here." ”

Mingzhu honestly followed Yu Wenchu to greet the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager said lightly: "Get up, your family doesn't have to be so polite, sit down." He also called Liang Youyi: "The weather is strangely cold, let them serve two cups of hot tea to the King and Princess of England." ”

Liang Youyi bowed and quietly retreated.

Mingzhu brewed her emotions for a while, and was about to tell the Empress Dowager about her pregnancy, Yuwenchu had already taken the lead and spoke: "The son is here to report the good news to the Queen Mother, Mingzhu was diagnosed with pregnancy yesterday." ”

The Empress Dowager's eyebrows rose suddenly, and then pressed down, she smiled, looked at Mingzhu quietly, and said after a long pause: "So, the things I asked people to send yesterday are just usable, it's really good." ”

Mingzhu had never heard the Empress Dowager speak to her in such a meaningful tone, and she was a little stunned for a while, feeling that her heart was pressed with a heavy stone, which made people breathless, and she couldn't help but reddened her eyes, looked at the Empress Dowager and whispered: "I didn't expect luck to be so good." You asked me before, because I saw sporadic blood stains on my underwear, I thought that the little day was coming, but I found a doctor to see, and said that it was possible to be pregnant, so be careful. I didn't dare to talk nonsense about anything that was not certain, and I didn't get diagnosed until yesterday. Mr. Liang went over, and wanted to ask him to talk to you, but he wanted to come over and tell you in person, and be happy with you. ”

Yu Wenchu couldn't help but sigh secretly, at this time, the last thing the Empress Dowager wanted was to see Mingzhu pregnant. Once the suspicion is born, such an explanation will probably be seen as an excuse, but Mingzhu, a fool, doesn't understand anything. However, he couldn't remind her of these things, and she could only experience them on her own.

Mingzhu didn't care so much, she wanted the Empress Dowager not to be angry with her, so she just opened her eyes and looked at the Empress Dowager fixedly, her expression sincere and stubborn.

The Empress Dowager has a thousand grievances in her heart, and she is very helpless, if this person is not Mingzhu, if Mingzhu is not her favorite niece, then she will naturally not suffer from this kind of torment, just start directly, but this person is a pearl. Although such a pearl makes people feel unfortified, she still put her face away and said a little tiredly: "When a woman gets married, she will have to pass this hurdle after all, which is a good thing." ”

Didn't say congratulations to Mingzhu.

Mingzhu lowered her eyes in disappointment, and the Empress Dowager was not happy.

Liang Youyi brought someone hot tea up, and quietly retreated. The Empress Dowager raised the teacup and dipped her lips and said, "Your mother doesn't know yet, go tell her and make her happy." ”

It's time to evict customers.

Mingzhu was aggrieved and angry, and stood up on the ground, there was a misunderstanding, she came to explain, and she refused to listen and drove her away, what did she do? Do you want her not to have this child?

Yuwen Chu was afraid that she would make trouble, so he hurriedly pulled her to say goodbye to the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother is busy, let's leave first." ”

Mingzhu broke away from his hand, took a breath, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, please take the first step, I have something to say to the Empress Dowager." ”

Yu Wenchu had no choice but to retreat silently.

The Empress Dowager leaned back in her chair and smiled faintly: "What's the matter, you're not happy?" ”

Mingzhu said aggrievedly: "Why doesn't my aunt believe me? Do you think I'm going to lie to you on purpose? ”

She didn't ask explicitly, but both the Empress Dowager and she understood what she was asking.

The Empress Dowager smiled and said tiredly: "It's nothing, it's just fate." ”

"Auntie, I ......" Mingzhu has a lot of things to tell the Empress Dowager, no matter who becomes the emperor in the end, she will do her best to treat the Empress Dowager well, serve the Empress Dowager until she is old, and her children will also honor the Empress Dowager with her.

The Empress Dowager raised her hand to stop Mingzhu's words, and said in a low voice: "Don't say it, I'm tired." I know what you want to say, everyone has their own helplessness, and my aunt has it too. Auntie thinks differently than you, don't force me. Congratulations anyway, and then be careful. ”

Mingzhu couldn't help it, and two big tears fell out.

Liang Youyi walked up, bowed his head and said, "Princess Ying, the old slave will send you out." ”

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes and said nothing.

Mingzhu lowered her eyes and walked out slowly. Heaven has no flesh and bones, is this really the truth? Aunt Mu rushed over panting, and whispered: "Don't think too much, Niangniang has been in a bad mood these days, and she will naturally turn around in two days." ”
