royal girl

Chapter 290 Conditions
After walking for half a day, he finally arrived at Mingzi Palace. The palace attendant quickly went in to report, and Qing Hua came out to welcome Huiyu in.

"Greetings to the princess, the empress is in the apse with the princess and princess, please come with the servant girl." Qing Hua said with a smile.

"I'm sorry." Huiyu breathed a sigh of relief, and the expression on his face eased a little, "The little palace man who led the way is quite clever, and his words are also pleasing, which is very attractive."

"The concubine really flatters her. This girl is quite neat but a little lazy, so she doesn't often go out on errands." Qing Hua said with a smile, "I have been working in Mingzi Palace for two years. Although she is lazy, she is still serious in her work. , and the errands were handled properly, so I asked her to invite the princess to come here today, otherwise it would not be her turn to do such an errand."

Huiyu heard Qinghua say this, and she understood in her heart that she was indeed a servant of Mingzi Palace, so there was no need to worry.

Xia Yingbai came out in person when she heard the voices outside, swept her eyes around Huiyu's stomach, and said with a smile: "You've gained a lot of weight, and you look pretty good. Come in, outside cold."

"There's nothing to do at home. I can't get fat except eating and sleeping." Huiyu said helplessly, and sat on the couch opposite Xia Yingbai, and heard sister Zhao and Princess Xiao'an in the room inside. The laughter came out.

"Sister Zhao has been clamoring to find you just now, so I asked someone to invite you here. I didn't expect to get into trouble with Xiao'an again after a while, let's ignore them and let's talk, but there will be no chance after a while. "Xia Yingbai said.

"New Year's is busy, but you don't have to worry about those mundane affairs. No one can be busy with you." Huiyu teased. Although Xia Yingbai is very favored, she never interferes with the palace affairs. This is also her cleverness.

Unexpectedly, Hui Yu heard Xia Yingbai sneer and looked up at her in surprise.

Looking at Huiyu's eyes, Xia Yingbai said: "The good days can't be left alone, but some people want to make a fuss, and even bring others to suffer."

"How did you say that?" It was rare for Hui Yu to hear Xia Yingbai's straightforward complaint. It seemed that the palace was really not peaceful.

Xia Yingbai's complexion was not very good-looking, she waved her hand to make all the waiters in the room retreat, and then said: "It's not because of the matter between Prince Jing and Prince Ning, Concubine De is trying her best to please the Emperor, I don't know what kind of tricks Concubine De used, the emperor has been staying in Xiuyu Palace for half a month."

Huiyu: ...

Speaking of which, Concubine De is not young, there are not many young and beautiful concubines in the palace, and the emperor can still be held by Concubine De and stay with her for half a month, this is really a skill.Therefore, it is really unreasonable for King Ning to be favored by the emperor all the time. Although Concubine De often makes foolish tricks and sometimes deceives her son and herself, most of the time her fighting power is extremely tough .

For example, now.

"Could it be that you can't get any news?" It stands to reason that Xia Yingbai has stayed in the palace for not a year or two, and has been favored all the time, so she has her own eyeliner no matter what.Even if the Xiuyu Palace is a place where water cannot be splashed, it is not impossible to find out any news.

Xia Yingbai lowered her head, and said after a long time: "I'm not sure yet, but neither the empress nor the imperial concubine will show up. How can I, a concubine who only gave birth to a daughter, be able to beat her straight?"

Huiyu can still figure it out without the queen showing up, after all, the only relationship left between the emperor and the queen is this husband and wife.The other queens don't care, as long as the back position is secure enough.After all, it is the emperor's freedom to spend the night with whomever concubine he likes. As long as the concubine does not violate the palace rules, the empress will not do anything at the risk of being hated by the emperor.

But it's surprising that the imperial concubine didn't move, after all, in the harem, the imperial concubine and Xia Yingbai are the most favored.Concubine De has always been favored, but gradually became thinner.Now that Concubine De is suddenly favored again, and with the addition of King Ning's son, is Concubine De really indifferent?

"The imperial concubine doesn't show up, is it because King Yi and King Ning..." Hui Yu looked at Xia Yingbai and asked.

If King Yi decides to side with King Ning, then the behavior of the noble concubine can be explained.What's more, if this is really the case, then it is very likely that the Concubine De will be secretly helped by the Concubine.

Xia Yingbai shook her head, "It shouldn't be like this, but I don't know the specific situation now. However, this matter shouldn't last for a long time, after all... After all, the emperor is not really such a dedicated person." Speaking of In the last sentence, Xia Yingbai's expression was faint.

Huiyu was silent in her heart, the emperor owned countless women from the Sangong and Sixth Courtyards, tall, short, fat, thin.In such an environment, it is quite difficult to be infatuated, after all, this is the era of legal concubines.In the time and space where Huiyu lives, isn't there a lot of people who are not allowed to take concubines and raise them secretly?
Love is never something you can meet.

No one dares to say that our love will last forever and never change until death.

Only when you look back on the years you have spent together, can you be sure that we have really held hands for a lifetime.

"Then it means that such a situation should be unusual." Huiyu frowned and said, "After all, Concubine De has been with the emperor for so many years, there is no novelty long ago." Because of this, Concubine De can still do To keep the emperor for half a month, this is what makes people wonder.

Xia Yingbai nodded lightly, "I'm telling you this so that you can prepare early."

Huiyu knew what Xia Yingbai was referring to, it must be because of the imperial envoy going to Jiangsu to investigate the case after the year.After all, the choice of this imperial envoy is still very important, if it is someone from King Ning's family, it will be very unfavorable to Ji Qiyu, and it will take more effort to turn the situation around.

Concubine De did this for her son, and Huiyu was convinced.I'm a lot older, and I really can afford it.

"Thank you very much." Hui Yu said to Xia Yingbai with a smile.

"Why are you being polite to me?" Xia Yingbai turned her head and looked out of the window, "If there is a day in the future when you promise me something, it can be regarded as repaying me."

The first time Xia Yingbai said such a thing, Huiyu was still a little surprised, but quickly said: "As long as I can do it, it is my duty."

"It's not that serious, look at your face." Xia Yingbai smiled lowly, "If there is a day, let me leave the palace, go to the imperial mausoleum, or go to any garden, I don't want to live in this cold place anymore in the palace."

Huiyu was silent for a while, before forcing out a smile, "Okay, your request is too low."

"If I don't open my mouth for the rest, you will do everything for me. I still have this confidence."

The two looked at each other and smiled, Huiyu shook her head lightly, "Then you have too much confidence in me."

"There has always been." Xia Yingbai said, "Ever since you shamed Xia Shuhui in front of our sisters, supported us and erected the threshold, I know that you are an extremely reliable person, and you are also the first We are the ones who do this kind of thing. Later, we hid at the border, but never complained. I will remember this love forever."

"It's an old story, what are you talking about." Huiyu also felt a little guilty. In fact, she chose to help Xia Yingbai because she knew her position in the book.At the beginning, he was selfish, but now he really has a sense of confidant.

Xia Yingbai glanced at Hui Yu, smiled and changed the subject, "A few days ago, Concubine Liang and Concubine De were quite close, but recently they have become a little distant again for some reason, presumably it has something to do with the court affairs. "

When Hui Yu heard Xia Yingbai's words, she said in a low voice, "King Ning and King Su teamed up first, but later they disagreed." In fact, it was a long story. At first, King Ning and King Su joined forces to deal with Ji Qi. Yu, Ji Qiyu was really in a hurry to deal with it during that time.Later, the two met in front of the door where they were looking for Kan Zhiyi. King Su promised to keep it a secret for King Jing. In fact, the letter that King Su received was sent by someone from Kan Zhiyi, deliberately making King Su think it was a message sent to him by King Ning. .The reason for doing this is to separate King Su from King Ning. After all, King Su saw Ji Qiyu go out during the confinement period. Sending this paper for impeachment will definitely make the emperor furious, and King Jing can't bear it.But what is the benefit of King Su in this way?Except that King Jing fell out of favor in front of the emperor, making King Jing hate him and fight against him, there is actually no other benefit at all.King Su and King Jing quarreled, and King Ning was the only one who benefited.This murder with a borrowed knife naturally created a gap between King Su and King Ning, and the two gradually drifted apart.

After Kan Zhiyi entered the capital, apart from being seriously injured and unable to meet Ji Qiyu in person, he met a clerk in his shop, and his hiding place was the area where the clerk lived, so he was able to hide there and do such things .What happened here was what Kan Zhiyi told Ji Qiyu later. After Huiyu knew about it, he heard Ji Qiyu tell him that he was right. Kan Zhiyi is indeed a talented person, after all, in such a short period of time. , People who can deploy all these and succeed, really cannot be underestimated.

Huiyu couldn't tell Xia Yingbai too much about the details, but Xia Yingbai could understand this sentence somewhat.

Apart from the matter of Kan Zhiyi, when Xiangsi was on the siege, the emperor summoned the three vassal kings to rush to the border.After arriving at the border, none of the lords including Ji Qiyu would have close contacts with the feudal kings, but that doesn't mean they wouldn't have contact in private, nor did it mean that the feudal kings wouldn't test the emperor during that time For the minds of the princes, there is no need to have a clear answer to many things, but there must be a direction and a pair of keen eyes.

In the end, King Fengchuan decided to surrender to Ji Qiyu, and Huiyu heard what Ji Qiyu said, which actually had a lot to do with Xingwei.

As several princes came and went in the court hall, the situation in the harem also kept changing.The relationship between Huiyu and Xia Yingbai may not be unnoticed by others, not to mention that the two of them had exchanged handkerchiefs before, so many people would assign Xia Yingbai to Prince Jing's family.This also caused the noble concubine to be able to hold back when the concubine De was so favored, and it also had something to do with it. Either the concubine and the concubine had reached an alliance, or the concubine was watching Xia Yingbai and other people's actions.

"I guess it's the same, but I usually don't say a word about these things in the harem." Xia Yingbai said, "I know it in my heart, and you should be more careful. After all, Concubine De has been with the emperor for many years, and the emperor treats King Ning I really like it too.”

Huiyu nodded, "There is nothing we can do. All we can do is try our best." After all, this is the author's golden finger to the original hero in the original text. Being favored, in fact, it is always inappropriate to want a smooth succession.With a favored mother, coupled with the emperor's love, and finally cannon fodder others, this is the final happy ending.

Therefore, on the road of not being cannon fodder, Huiyu also walked quite hard.

Sister Zhao and Princess Xiao'an ran out from the separation, and when they saw their mother living here, the little girl ran over happily, stopped two steps in front of Huiyu, and then walked over cautiously and leaned against her. Huiyu shouted cheerfully: "Mother."

Seeing sister Zhao's actions, Xia Yingbai was really surprised, "This child is really sensible."

Huiyu felt that this should be praised by Ji Qiyu, after all, he taught it, but it was not good to show affection when Xia Yingbai was currently emotionally damaged, so she resolutely suppressed this, and said instead: "You Hurry up and conceive another one, Princess Xiaoan will naturally become a big sister and sensible."

Xia Yingbai patted her stomach when she heard Huiyu's words, "Let's go with fate, this matter cannot be forced."

This is also true, after all, the emperor is not young, and it is not easy to have children.

Seeing that the time was approaching, Huiyu took sister Zhao and left first. It was too ostentatious to go to Fengqi Palace with Concubine Han.

Mammy You hugged Sister Zhao, Huiyu walked in front, and the maid was still leading the way, but this time with Mammy You, the maid did not talk as much as when she came.It can be seen that Nanny You was quite majestic when she was in the palace, Huiyu thought.

The luncheon was still held in Fengqi Palace. As a pregnant woman, Huiyu must have attracted much attention, and the queen specially sent two palace servants to wait on her.Sister Zhao was taught a lot of rules in the palace by Nanny You, and she was very quiet when eating. After eating, she followed Sister Zhen of the Su Wang family, Chun Cheng, and Ning Wang. I waited for a few children to go crazy in the yard.These children belong to the third generation of the emperor, and they are also the little masters in the palace. For a while, the laughter of the children outside can be heard in Fengqi Palace.

Sister Jiu stayed by her mother's side, and she yearned for the laughter outside, but this child was always slow to respond, and she couldn't play with other people's children, so she would inevitably be left out in the cold.This is something that can’t be helped. At this time, the children are at a time when their nature is not restrained, and they don’t know how to do superficial skills. Can you tell Sister Zhao that these children can understand?Certainly not.You let brother Cheng take sister Jiu to play, does he have that patience?Certainly not.Maybe in a few years we will know how to endure, but unfortunately not now.As for Jia Geer, Xia Bingyu and Dong Wan were incompatible in Prince Ning's mansion, and their children did not interact with each other. At this time, Jia Geer definitely did not intend to get close to this sister. If this sister had something, he Bad luck with his mother.

The side concubines are all in the side hall, and there is no place for them in the main hall.The two side concubines of Prince Jing's mansion are also in the side hall, so even if Huiyu wants to meet Dong Wan, unless she goes to the side hall to find her, it's a pity that she doesn't want to be criticized at such a time, although Both of them are in Fengqi Palace, but it is really not easy to meet each other.

Sometimes, a one-step difference in status is a gully that cannot be filled.

Xia Bingyu naturally also saw the longing in the child's eyes, hugged her daughter on her lap and bowed her head to talk to her softly, a smile gradually appeared on Jiujie's face, but childhood without companions is not complete after all.

The Empress was chatting and laughing casually with everyone, her eyes fell on Sister Jiu, and she said to Xia Bingyu: "The second child's family also let the children go out to play, it's better to be with brothers and sisters. Children are not well either."

Xia Bingyu hurriedly got up and replied: "What the queen mother said is true." She couldn't refute what the queen mother said, but she couldn't help worrying about sister Jiu in her eyes, so she still called the nanny to take the child out.

At this moment, Concubine De, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Sister Jiu is a quiet child. In addition, when she was born prematurely, the child's health is not very good, so don't go out in such a cold day." .If you get caught in the cold wind, it won't be beautiful, what do you think, my lady?"

Concubine De should also be aware of her granddaughter's inadequacies, it would be embarrassing and naturally she should not let the child out easily.

The Empress looked at De Concubine when she heard what Concubine De said, and said, "Concubine De's words are reasonable, I just look at Sister Jiu's poor child, and no one is around to play with her."

Children from other people's families can get together to play without special greetings. Is it possible that children from other people's families are not delicate?In such cold weather, aren't they afraid of the cold wind?Haha, after all, Concubine De is just afraid of embarrassment.The queen's words sound soft, but when you think about it carefully, you feel that the taste is not right, poor?Why are you poor?Why is no one playing with her?It doesn't matter if other people's children are not together, why aren't brothers and sisters from a palace together?
