Resourceful beauty

Chapter 272
"Since it belongs to my concubine, then you should keep it well."

Holding the plain silver hairpin in his hand and rubbing it for a long time, Chu Yuan put it in the box and handed it to Fang Ruxuan, Fang Ruxuan put it in his cage solemnly.

Looking back again, Chu Yuan got up with a somewhat lonely expression, and went outside.

Fang Ruxuan followed quietly, and saw Chu Yuan walking to Nuan Pavilion, waving at the nurse, sitting on the side of the crib, staring softly at her son and staring blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.

"My concubine is in the spirit of heaven. Seeing that you have grown up safely and ascended to the reserve position, and looking at our family of three, I will be comforted in my heart."

Fang Ruxuan said softly.

Chu Yuan smiled, "Concubine Xi has gone. When I see Concubine Mother, I will definitely tell her all these things, and Concubine Mother will know that I have never forgotten her. As a result, our mother and child are separated, and Yin and Yang are separated by 20 years. I have been an enemy for many years, and I will definitely kill myself to avenge my mother and concubine."

As he spoke, he seemed to feel that the words were too hostile, afraid of disturbing his sleeping son, Chu Yuan took a few deep breaths, and raised his hand to touch the little boy's soft face.

The two sat in front of the child's bed and talked for a while, then heard that Hu Moyan and the others had come to pay their respects, Fang Ruxuan got up and pushed Chu Yuan out of the Nuan Pavilion.

After dinner, seeing Chu Yuan's indifferent expression and not wanting to say anything, Hu Moyan got up in time to leave. Behind him, Lin Ke'er looked at Chu Yuan sadly, then at Fang Ruxuan, almost shedding tears.

Lin Keer's appearance gave Fang Ruxuan a headache in her heart: I really don't know what she looked like at home in the past, but now, without saying or doing anything, she is able to put on such a grievance to the point of sheeping Ruoqi's appearance was really hard for her, Fang Ruxuan asked herself, she definitely couldn't do it.

"Xinlan and Luwu have been in the East Palace for more than half a year, and the side concubine and Liangdi have been here for four months. Now, none of the four have served His Highness. I don't know how many people in this palace are jealous of me."

Half joking and half joking, Fang Ruxuan turned to look at Chu Yuan, and saw him startled, as if he remembered something again.

"what happened?"

Fang Ruxuan asked suspiciously.

Chu Yuan came back to his senses and shook his head, "It's nothing. But, tonight, I'll go to Qixia Hall to rest. Go to bed early, don't wait for me."

Just now, she saw a hairpin left by Concubine Ning stunned for a long time, and now she said she was going to rest at Hu Moyan's place, Fang Ruxuan was very surprised, but Chu Yuan didn't want to say more, knowing that he was in a bad mood at the moment. Okay, Fang Ruxuan didn't ask any more questions, and just ordered Ding Xiang to go to Qixia Hall to inform Hu Moyan.

Ding Xiang hesitated, looked at Chu Yuan and Fang Ruxuan with strange expressions for a long time, and finally went out reluctantly.

Early the next morning, when Fang Ruxuan opened her eyes, Chu Yuan was already sitting on the warm couch by the window reading a book.

Seeing Fang Ruxuan woke up, Chu Yuan got up and went to bed, brought a bowl of hot tea over, smiled and fed her a few sips of water, and went to pick up brother Ming, the three laughed and quarreled for a while.

Seeing that Chu Yuan no longer had the depressed look of yesterday, Fang Ruxuan felt relieved.

For three consecutive days, Chu Yuan rested in Qixia Hall.

Knowing Hu Moyan's heart, nothing will happen to the two of them, Fang Ruxuan naturally doesn't think too much about it, but that day, it was after she made a joke first, Chu Yuan just made up his mind, Fang Ruxuan couldn't help guessing, Chu Yuan Could it be that you are worried about something?
Thinking of the approaching New Year's Eve banquet, and thinking that although there are many people in the palace who can overwhelm her, but only the Queen Mother Lou and Queen Zhou can do anything, Fang Ruxuan thought for a long time, but still had no idea.

Early in the morning on New Year's Eve, when Hu Moyan and the others came to pay their respects, Fang Ruxuan could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the hall was quite different from the past.

Hu Moyan was as indifferent as ever, and Lin Keer was as sad as before, but when he looked past Hu Moyan, the handkerchief in his hand was about to be torn into a rag.

On the other hand, Xinlan and Luwu, looking at Fang Ruxuan and Hu Moyan, seemed to have their own calculations in their hearts.

"Tonight, on New Year's Eve, I will go to Yiyuan Palace with His Highness to attend the New Year's Eve banquet. You just rest in your room. When you come back, I will send someone to call you. When the time comes, we will watch the New Year's Eve together."

After sending a message, the four of them broke up, and Fang Ruxuan went to the Nuan Pavilion to tell the wet nurse about the night.

Coming out of Xuanyi Hall and bypassing the Moon Gate, seeing Hu Moyan turn around and leave, Lin Keer chased after him, "Sister Hu, stay a step..."

Turning around to look at Lin Ke'er suspiciously, Hu Moyan asked coldly: "What's the matter with Lin Liangdi?"

Hesitating, Lin Ke'er said in a low voice: "I've been in the palace for so long, and I haven't talked to my sister intimately. If my sister doesn't dislike it, let's talk together, okay?"

If it were Fang Ruxuan, she might be concerned about Lin Keer's face, and would be more tactful in her refusal, but Hu Moyan hated those meek and dishonest people since she was a child. Lin Keer was like this, presumably because the prince was with her Because of resting for three nights in a row, Hu Moyan sneered and said, "Could it be that Lin Liangdi wanted to ask, how did I keep His Highness the Crown Prince, so that he can give me some rain and dew while pampering the Crown Princess?"

In a word, Lin Ke'er's pretty face blushed immediately, and she stood there with her head down, looking extremely embarrassed.

The disdain on his face was even worse, and Hu Moyan said with a playful smile: "I don't know what His Highness the Crown Prince likes. However, Lin Liangdi should know based on what she did in the past. Our Highness doesn't like enchanting things. Hypocritical people. Therefore, if you don’t fight or grab, maybe someday good luck will come, and if you concentrate on jumping up, maybe it will be even more annoying.”

Seeing that Lin Keer's eyes were filled with tears, Hu Moyan frowned impatiently, "That's all I can say, Lin Liangdi can decide whether to listen or not. However, my Qixia Palace has always been It's deserted, so I won't entertain Lin Liangdi."

After finishing speaking, Hu Moyan turned around and left with the maidservant.

Since entering the palace, whether Fang Ruxuan, the crown princess, or the high-ranking concubines she met outside the East Palace, most of them talked to her in a pleasant manner. When did Lin Ke'er receive such sarcastic remarks?Immediately, tears welled up in his eyes, the cold wind blew, and his face was as painful as a knife cut.

Not far behind, Xinlan and Luwu, who had slowed down to hear what Hu Moyan had to say, looked at each other and quickened their pace, pretending to turn a blind eye to Lin Keer's sad and lonely appearance.

In the evening, Chu Yuan and Fang Ruxuan went to the Hall of Yiyuan together with their nurse and their son, who was wrapped three layers inside and outside like a rice dumpling.

As soon as he entered the palace, he saw that the first place was full of excitement, and the Queen of Zhou had already arrived.

Holding a little baby in his arms and teasing him, the little guy was clucking with joy, surrounded by Lu Rufei, Fang Guifei and others, full of compliments.

Looking around, Fang Ruxuan knew that this must be the extremely precious young master of Prince Yong's Mansion.

Compared with King Yong and You Rongyan, Concubine Yong's indifference seems a bit out of place, but she doesn't seem to care what others think, she still sits indifferently in her seat, talking to the maids around her from time to time, as if What the queen holds in her arms is not her child.

Fang Ruxuan and Chu Yuan looked at each other, knowing it in their hearts, leaned over to greet Ann, walked behind their desk and sat down.

After a while, King Yao arrived.

Due to the cold weather, the Empress Dowager Lou was not feeling well, so she said early that she would not attend. This year's New Year's Eve banquet officially kicked off after King Yao arrived.

Although the drought in the south made things difficult in the court this year, they were resolved smoothly in the end. In the palace, Concubine Fang Gui gave birth to a little prince, and the East Palace and Prince Yong's Mansion each had their own heirs. For the happy event, during the banquet, because of the three children, the topic spread very quickly, and after a while, the atmosphere in the hall became lively.

After instructing the wet nurse to carry the little prince to King Yao and Queen Zhou, Concubine Fang's eyes would occasionally pass over the child in the arms of the wet nurse behind Princess Yong.

Just now, when she glanced at Queen Zhou's hand, Concubine Fang felt that the child's eyebrows and eyes were indescribably kind, and she even felt: that is her child.

After receiving King Yong's admonishing gaze several times, Concubine Fanggui just pretended not to see it, but she became excited for no reason: If that was really her son, she would hug and kiss him no matter what.

After being favored again, Concubine Fang Gui is considered very popular in the harem, so she is not far from King Yao for the table arrangement of the night banquet. Taking advantage of the fact that she was going to see the little prince, Concubine Fang Gui stood up and stepped forward. Walked to King Yao.

King Yao waved his hand, and immediately, a servant brought over a small table, and Concubine Fang sat down beside King Yao in such a grandiose manner.

Carrying her son back, Concubine Fang Gui said with a charming smile: "My lord, the little prince was only born more than a month earlier than the young master of Prince Yong's mansion. By then, the two of us will be about the same age, and we can run and make trouble, so we can hold hands and play together." Yes, this is really fate."

King Yao smiled and nodded, Concubine Fanggui rushed to the maidservant behind him and said, "Go, bring the young master from Prince Yong's Mansion, and let them get close to each other now, so that they won't be unfamiliar when they grow up."

Concubine Yong had a look of nothingness. King Yong had a smile on his face, but his eyes were icy cold. He stabbed Concubine Fang like a knife and silently asked her what she wanted to do.

It's a pity that concubine Fang Gui smiled like a flower and didn't look at him from the beginning to the end, and King Yao was even more cheerful, obviously happy to see the result.

Turning back and speaking, behind Princess Yong, the wet nurse carried the child to the first place.

Concubine Fang Gui took the child and touched his small face, feeling like a heart was about to jump out of her mouth.

"This kid looks really good..."

Praising softly, Concubine Fang looked back at King Yao and said, "Since he is the young master of Prince Yong's mansion, then he will be the son of King Yong in the future. Today is a beautiful day, and the king will give you a favor, and let the Prince Yong's mansion follow you." Happy happy?"

Concubine Fang Gui finished speaking, King Yong and Princess Yong looked over in surprise at the same time.
