Chapter 772 - Settle in the Heart

After a while, Xia Concubine cleaned up and went over to watch the child in person. I only saw the child's sleeping appearance, which looked very stable, and how happy I was in my heart, naturally I don't need to mention it.

These days, Xia Concubine only feels that life is fast. It seems that happy days are like this, always fly by, obviously a few days ago I was still with a big belly, but now the child has come out, revealing her cute appearance.

This made Xia Concubine feel a lot of emotion every time she thought about it. Xia Concubine didn't say how happy she was for the time being, but said that on the other side of the palace, there was a person who was also quietly relieved.

This person is not someone else, it is Du Qinyue. In the Lanyue Palace, Du Qinyue looked nervous, stared at the spy kneeling on the ground, and asked repeatedly, "How is it, how is the news?" Xia Concubine Niangniang was born, is it a princess or a prince? ”

"Back to Niangniang, Xia Concubine Niangniang gave birth to a princess." The spy heard Du Qinyue's question, didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly replied, "The internal affairs office has already chosen a name, called Shen Heyu, for the second princess." ”

"Okay, okay, this palace knows, and there is no need to talk to this palace about the other details. If there is anything to do, come back to the palace, and you should go down first. Du Qinyue waved her hand indifferently, but the joy on her face couldn't be hidden.

"Yes." After the spy got Du Qinyue's order, he naturally didn't stay for a long time, bowed to Du Qinyue slightly, and then went down, leaving Du Qinyue alone in the palace, thinking carefully.

As early as when Xia Concubine was pregnant, Du Qinyue was already a little dissatisfied. God knows, she's been in the palace for so long. In addition to He Suoyi, she is the longest, the one with the highest rank.

However, seeing that those concubines who came in many days later than her, one by one, they all had princes or princesses, and she was the only one, after so many years, there was no movement in her stomach, which made Du Qinyue how could she swallow this breath.

And Xia Concubine, in Du Qinyue's eyes, is a pawn-like figure under her hands. Even Xia Concubine had a child, but she didn't, which made Du Qinyue unconvinced. On the one hand, she was dissatisfied, and on the other hand, she was afraid that Xia Concubine would give birth to a prince and might have the opportunity to step on her head in the future.

So when she learned that Xia Concubine was about to give birth, Du Qinyue sent spies to guard early, just to get the latest news. Now that the news came out, knowing that Xia Concubine had not given birth to a prince, Du Qinyue was also relieved.

If it is said that she gave birth to a prince, Xia Concubine is still a little competitive. However, at present, Xia Concubine is just a mere princess, and Xia Concubine is no longer favored, and the possibility of having another prince in the future is very small, Du Qinyue breathed a deep sigh of relief.

The status of the prince and the princess is very different in this palace. Since Xia Concubine gave birth to a princess, her status will not be improved much, not to mention that her father still has to rely on Du Qinyue's father, so if it is calculated, Xia Concubine is still tightly held by Du Qinyue.

"Hongu was worried before." Du Qinyue was alone in the palace muttering to herself, with a joy on her face that could not be concealed, "After Concubine Xia has a child, will she be pampered and arrogant and get out of the control of this palace." ”

"This is a chess piece that Hongu has cultivated himself, and it took a lot of effort. If you cultivate another one, it will be too tiring. Du Qinyue smiled, with some smugness on her face, "Fortunately, she gave birth to a princess...... In this way, this Xia concubine still couldn't escape the palm of the palace after all. ”

Thinking like this, Du Qinyue suddenly felt extremely satisfied, the previous depression was almost swept away, and she no longer suspected Xia Concubine. And decided to trust Xia Concubine again, and after some time, Xia Concubine recuperated, and then find something for her to do.

What Du Qinyue thought, Xia Concubine naturally didn't know. In her heart, she still has her own thoughts.

For Xia Concubine, she actually doesn't have much ambition. Previously, for the sake of the family and her father's future, she was committed to Du Qinyue and did things for her. In fact, Xia Concubine had already been a little dissatisfied with Du Qinyue's ruthlessness in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it easily because of Du Qinyue's power.

Previously, Xia Concubine was soft-spoken, and in the face of Du Qinyue, she naturally didn't dare to do anything, for fear that Du Qinyue would be dissatisfied with her, and her father would have any disadvantages.

But now, things are very different. Xia Concubine has a second princess, and she thinks that her position in the palace has been much more stable. It's not something that Du Qinyue can easily humiliate.

What's more, after giving birth to a child, Xia Concubine also saw a lot. She understands that there are 3,000 beauties in the emperor's harem, and it can be regarded as luck that she was able to get a little favor before.

If you want to gain favor again, I'm afraid it will be even more difficult. What's more, there is intrigue in the palace, and I am cheating. As long as she is not careful, she will be framed into a situation from which she will never recover.

It's better not to have so much greed and ambition, and just keep your children safely. Relying on this child, her life in the palace must not be too bad.

Xia Concubine thought about it like this, and only felt that it suddenly became enlightened. As long as she and the child are well, safe and secure in this palace, what is the point of asking for those voids? After thinking about it like this, Xia Concubine suddenly felt empowered, and the whole person was a lot more transparent.

Now that Concubine Xia has figured it out, she no longer pays attention to the deceitful things in the palace, and only cares about the children. Every day, all Xia Concubine has to do is stay with her children, and she doesn't want to go anywhere. Even if it's just looking at the child's sleeping face, she can spend the day contentedly.

Because of this kind of thinking, these days, Xia Concubine doesn't listen to Du Qinyue very much. What Du Qinyue asked her to do was painstaking and laborious, and Concubine Xia was really bored. In addition, now that she has a child, Xia Concubine consciously has a guarantee, and she is even more unwilling to blindly listen to Du Qinyue.

On this day, a little eunuch came in and delivered a letter. When Xia Concubine looked at the envelope, she frowned. I saw that the envelope looked very elegant, with a small word slightly embroidered on the edge, which was "moon".

Xia Concubine looked at the envelope, her brows furrowed, and she looked very bored. When others looked at this envelope, they might just think that this envelope was elegant and generous, and it seemed that the owner of the letter must have put some thought into it, but Xia Concubine understood that there was another mystery in it.

For no other reason, this envelope was not someone else's, it was sent by Du Qinyue. Her envelope is very distinctive, and it is like this every time, and over time, Xia Concubine also remembered this envelope.

These days, I don't know what's going on, in the past, Du Qinyue didn't send a letter at ten o'clock and half a month, but now he has sent several letters in succession. The content of the envelope was nothing more than which concubine Du Qinyue asked her to frame, or what to do, which seemed trivial and troublesome. Xia Concubine was tired of this for a long time, and as soon as she looked at the envelope, she sighed before she could speak.

"Concubine Niangniang, what's going on these days? Why do you send letters to Hongu every day? Xia Concubine frowned and opened the envelope herself. The palace was empty at the moment, so she was not afraid of being seen.

Today's envelope is no different from what Du Qinyue sent before. Xia Concubine only saw a few words written on it: "Concubine Lin is about to give birth, give some abortion pills as soon as possible to prevent Concubine Lin from giving birth."

As soon as she saw these lines, Xia Concubine couldn't help but snort coldly, and her face was full of mockery. She secretly thought to herself: "This concubine really has no common sense, and she actually arranged this palace to do this kind of thing."

She couldn't help but mock: "Concubine Shu really has no common sense, I don't know these questions." Now that Concubine Lin is about to give birth, what's the use of giving abortion pills at this time?"

After Xia Concubine taunted fiercely, she lit the paper, and watched the exquisite envelope turn into ashes in an instant, with a very indifferent expression. After that, Du Qinyue sent many letters to Xia Concubine, but Xia Concubine was all disobedient and didn't take it to heart at all.

A few days later, the little eunuch came back again, but did not deliver the letter, but said to Xia Concubine: "Niangniang, the lady concubine asked you why you didn't reply to her letter and didn't do what she told you."

After Xia Concubine heard this, she only wanted to snort coldly, but her face was silent, and she only made a guilty look, and said, "I'm really embarrassed." Ever since she gave birth to a child, her body has been very weak. Recently, I have been sitting in confinement, and it has been extremely difficult, and I have been resting in bed for a long time, and I can't even see the wind, so how can I complete the task of the lady concubine. ”

"This time, I'm afraid this palace is destined to disappoint Niangniang." Xia Concubine lowered her eyes and made a guilty look, listening to the voice, she could obviously feel that she didn't have much guilt, "After you go back, remember to convey it for Niangniang and tell her the apologies of the palace." ”

This is obviously prevarication. The little eunuch was very anxious to listen to the sidelines, but he didn't care about the identity of Xia Concubine, and he couldn't say anything, so he could only nod and say softly: "The slave understands." Don't worry, the slave will go back and convey what you said to the lady concubine. Not a word will be changed in the slightest. ”

"Go ahead." Faced with the threat of this little eunuch, Xia Concubine just looked unimpressed. She wasn't even too scared of Du Qinyue now, would she still care about this little eunuch?

"You can convey it all, but this palace doesn't care." Xia Concubine looked at the little eunuch and bowed slightly, "Go back, this palace is looking forward to your good news." ”

The little eunuch didn't know whether Xia Concubine was praising him or being sarcastic when he said this, but he didn't want to say anything, so he could only walk away with an angry face.

The little eunuch walked quickly, and after a while, he returned to the palace. After returning to the palace, he did not hesitate at all, and immediately reported what had just happened to Du Qinyue.
