"Auntie!"

Yongle held the small ball-like bulge on his stomach, jumping and jumping along the way, which really made Ah Xiu tremble.

"Princess, slow down." Ah Xiu hurriedly stepped forward to support Yongle, no matter how strong his martial arts are, he must be careful when he is pregnant, not to mention that the princess herself is still a half-shelf.

"It's all right, auntie, he's quiet, not at all, unlike some people." Yongle smiled, looking down and touching his stomach, looking particularly naughty.

"Princess." Hearing this, Ah Xiu shook her head helplessly.

She gently helped the princess to walk in the courtyard, and then whispered: "Princess, there has been some chaos in Beijing recently, and the palace may not be able to live in peace, you have to remember, don't run around." ”

After the Chen accident, the wind direction in the capital began to become weird, and now the two generations of the Chen family - no, it should be said that the three generations of helmsmen died in assassination, which makes the people in Beijing even more panicked.

Like most people, Ah Xiu thinks that it is also the hands and feet of the Jinyi guard, but the person who lays out the layout behind the scenes is His Majesty the Emperor himself in the deep palace.

Especially Jin Yiwei didn't even do face work, and directly detained Chen Heguang into the edict, and within a few days, the other party announced that the other party had died of illness, which was simply a war letter to the family.

Now not only in the capital, but even in this forbidden palace, the emperor's harem is full of family women, when Jin Yiwei opened the knife on the Chen family, the ladies in the palace have been quietly divided into two factions: for and against.

These days, in order to deal with the ladies of all families standing behind her, Ah Xiu has spent a lot of brains.

The princess is worthy of being Meng Guifei's biological child, and this scheming appearance is also in the same vein, even if there is already a rumor outside, the mother and daughter are still happy, but everything falls on Ah Xiu alone, sometimes she really feels that she owes them the Meng family in her last life.

"By the way, Auntie, I saw Concubine Zhao coming today, but her face didn't seem to look good when she left, did you quarrel?" Yongle asked curiously.

"It's just a small thing, and the princess doesn't have to take it to heart." Ah Xiu stretched out her hand and nodded Yongle's forehead, not planning to tell the other party about these things.

Behind Concubine Zhao is the Chen family in the clouds, now that Jinyiwei is desperate to fight, the other party will naturally not be happy, even the most dull person should react that Jinyiwei has reversed himself, not to mention this shrewd Zhaofei Niangniang.

"I'm not a kid anymore." Yongle covered his forehead and was nodded by Ah Xiu, and his expression seemed to be a little unhappy.

Ah Xiu looked at her quite amusedly, and said accommodatingly: "Okay, I know, the princess is about to be a mother, not a child." ”

"Auntie!" The princess reluctantly pulled Ah Xiu's arm and coquettishly, the other party's words made Yongle blush, although she had a child in her belly, but when others laughed at it, she still felt shy.

After the trouble, Yongle asked a little embarrassedly: "Is there anything urgent to do in the Jinyi Guard Yamen recently, it seems that he hasn't entered the palace for some time." ”

Ah Xiu sighed in her heart, your concubine is now stirring up the wind and rain in the capital, where can I have time to come to the palace to relax.

It's just that when the words came to her lips, seeing Yongle's little eyes that pretended not to care but were actually quite expectant, Ah Xiu still couldn't bear to tell the truth, her eyes drooped slightly, and she pretended to jokingly say: "Why, I haven't seen you for a few days, and our princess is missing her husband again?" ”

Yongle was immediately made red-faced, and she stomped her feet angrily: "Auntie is really! Ignore you! ”

After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave, Ah Xiu couldn't feel at ease when she saw her like this, and hurriedly instructed the palace maid beside her; "You all go and follow, be careful, don't let the princess bump into it."

"Yes." Several palace people immediately caught up with Princess Yongle and guarded them carefully.

After sending this little ancestor away, the soft color of Ah Xiu's eyes gradually faded, replaced by a cold solemnity.

"Someone."

Ah Xiu called a few powerful palace maids in the palace of the concubine and instructed them: "Pay attention to the errands these days, the wind and waves outside are not stopping, I am afraid that someone in the palace will do something in secret." ”

"Understood." Several people retreated, leaving only one person to continue to follow Ah Xiu.

"Your Majesty, there is no news yet?" Ah Xiu asked in a low voice.

The palace maid replied: "No, Zixiao Palace has palace people who deliver food in the morning and evening, and everything is the same as usual." ”

"What about Cao Yuan?" Ah Xiu asked again.

Cao Yuan, as the great eunuch of the palm print of the inner palace, will not escape his eyes if there is any wind and grass, and he is the shadow of the emperor, so these things in the capital and in the palace, as long as the emperor wants to know, he will definitely know.

Even if the emperor is not interested, presumably Cao Yuan will not let go of this good opportunity to use eye medicine.

"Father-in-law Cao, he has been serving in Zixiao Palace, and I heard that the celebrant has not seen anyone for half a month."

The palace maid replied truthfully, and at the same time said: "Also, yesterday the master of ceremonies sent some gifts from Gonggong Xia, and the slave maid saw that they were all precious tonics, which showed that he was attentive, and he wanted to come and meet Niangniang." ”

"Heh," Ah Xiu sneered: "Cao Yuan doesn't give Xin'er, it seems that Xia Zhang is in a hurry, and that's right, if a person like him doesn't find a way out for himself in advance, then he will definitely end up in the future." ”

The palace maid nodded: "The power of Dongchang is not weak, the important thing is to be more helpful in the palace, then we"

"Don't worry," Ah Xiu interrupted the other party's words: "Xia Zhang can betray Cao Yuan today, and he can sell us in the future, before the situation is clear, and hang him first, so as not to startle the snake, let people think that we can't sit still." ”

"Yes." The palace maid nodded in response, and then quietly looked up at Ah Xiu, as if she wanted to say something.

Ah Xiu acted vigorously and resolutely, and she didn't like to see such an expression, she frowned and said, "What else is there, say." ”

"Yes" After hesitating for a moment, the palace maid said: "It's news from outside the palace, Qiu Tongzhi quietly returned to Beijing yesterday, and he also asked the slave maid to send a letter to your aunt." ”

"Letter?" Ah Xiu was stunned for a moment, then raised her hand to take the letter in the palace maid's hand, and she recognized it at a glance that the handwriting on the letter was not written by Qiu Qingyun.

Ah Xiu's eyes seemed to be bright, she opened the letter and read it carefully, and then her expression was even colder than at the beginning.

Gong Wan lowered her head stiffly, not daring to make any movements, and after a while, she saw that Ah Xiu's hand was like a sharp blade, and the letter was cut into crumbs in the blink of an eye.

"You went back to him, and I had nothing to say to that man." Ah Xiu turned around and left after saying that, and after a while, the harem maid bent down her stiff body and cleaned up the confetti on the ground before leaving quietly.
