royal girl

Chapter 291
Huiyu lowered her head like the other concubines, but in her heart she still felt that the queen was really powerful, and her soft-spoken voice choked Concubine De.Moreover, Concubine De was so angry that she couldn't let it out, so she could only hold it back. Who made Sister Jiu really have a congenital deficiency?Who is to blame for congenital inadequacy?Naturally it was the mother who gave birth to her, but Concubine Ning is the niece of Concubine De, she has to protect her no matter how unhappy she is, so she can only swallow this dumb loss.

Xia Bingyu's face was stiff, she looked at her daughter, then at Concubine De and the queen, and finally she could only come out and say with a smile: "The concubine took the child out to have a look, and asked the queen mother for permission. The child was born prematurely when she was born. , Chen Qie has always felt that she can't live with her, and always wants to make her life safe and smooth, so it is inevitable that she will take a closer look at her."

The reason why Xia Bingyu gave birth prematurely in the first place, no one in this hall does not know, she said this at this time, firstly, she did not want to cause tension between Concubine De and the Empress, and secondly, she took the initiative to put this matter on a flat surface, so that everyone Instead, he has nothing to say, and only feels sorry for her motherly heart.

After all, it is the heroine, this reaction is not ordinary quick.

Xia Bingyu lowered her posture, and the queen naturally couldn't embarrass her, so she smiled and said: "Then go, it's rare that you can take care of the child like this is also a loving mother."

"Thank you, mother." Xia Bingyu saluted respectfully, and walked out of the hall with her daughter in her arms.

The sun was shining outside, and snow was piled up in the corner of the courtyard. Facing the sun, Xia Bingyu's figure gradually walked away.

Huiyu withdrew her eyes, thinking in her heart that the empress and concubine De were not in peace, otherwise the empress would not have said those words just now.

"The delivery date of the fourth family is coming soon, isn't it?" the queen asked Huiyu with a smile.

"When you go back to your mother, it's almost here." Huiyu replied hastily.

"Is everything ready at home?"

"Yes, everything is ready, thank you for your concern, Queen Mother."

"This is your second child, and I know what to do when I think about it. If there is something in short supply, just ask, and I will watch the healthy grandson land on the ground."

Huiyu was busy thanking her, and couldn't help but think that maybe it was because the children who landed in the royal palaces were all girls, so the queen also hoped to give birth to a boy.But Huiyu couldn't guarantee this, and she didn't want Cheng Qizhou to help her pulse to check whether it was a boy or a girl. Whether the child was a boy or a girl, they were all good children.If there is a distinction between genders, wouldn't it be too unfair to children?

But Huiyu can't say this, but I think everyone is very concerned about whether her child is a boy or a girl.He should also feel that if he had another girl, he wondered if Ji Qiyu would still treat him like this.

It's funny when I think about it, when I look at other people's marriages, they always use appendages to determine the constant value. It seems that only in this way can they feel real.But Huiyu knew that even if she had another daughter, Ji Qiyu would not change.

After caring for all the daughters-in-law, the empress asked everyone to leave. There was a dinner in the evening, and Huiyu stayed in Fengqi Palace as usual. Sister Zhao had been playing wildly for so long at noon, and soon took a nap.Huiyu looked at her daughter's face, and actually felt a little strange in her heart. After all, her daughter didn't look very much like herself or Ji Qiyu, but she looked a little like the emperor, which was really depressing.

Fortunately, Ji Qiyu didn't have any prejudice against her daughter because of this.

There will be fireworks after the dinner, and Huiyu and Ji Qiyu will meet up at the dinner, and the empress is present, which is more lively than the luncheon.Sister Zhao was very excited to see the emperor, if Ji Qiyu hadn't hugged her daughter and hugged her, the little girl would have run up quickly.I don't know what's going on, but sister Zhao seems to be willing to get close to the emperor. Although Huiyu has heard of intergenerational relatives, it's rare for sister Zhao to be so excited.

Holding her body but not gagging her mouth, Sister Zhao's sweet "grandfather" still made the emperor successfully turn his attention to Sister Zhao.So the emperor waved at Sister Zhao, and the little girl happily left his father's embrace and ran over, climbed to sit on the emperor's lap familiarly, and then pulled the fruit plate in front of her...

Princess Xiao'an saw that Sister Zhao went up, and she was unwilling to sit next to the concubine mother below, so she ran over by herself, and Concubine Han hurriedly got up to apologize.For more than half a month, the emperor was either in the front hall or at the concubine De's side. He really hadn't seen his daughter for some time. At this time, the little eyes looking at his daughter's grievance also picked her up, and made a baby on one leg. , both of them are very beautifully carved with jade.As Sister Zhao's facial features gradually opened up, everyone compared it and suddenly found that Sister Zhao looked more like an emperor than Princess Xiao'an. Sweeping back and forth, Ji Qiyu's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Huiyu gave Ji Qiyu a slight push, and put some food on the plate for him.Huiyu basically wouldn't do this kind of thing in full view, so she did it quietly in order to appease Ji Qiyu's emotions.But now their husband and wife are the focus of everyone's attention, and everyone can see that Prince Jing, who is extremely furry and very clean, eats the food that Princess Jing gave him with a calm expression.

Where did your cleanliness go?

Ji Qiyu's obsession with cleanliness has pissed off a lot of people, especially when everyone doesn't like to eat at the same table with him, because when eating at a table, one must use serving chopsticks to pick up the dishes separately, and behind each person there must be a eunuch serving dishes .If you want to pick up food with chopsticks stained with your own saliva, Prince Jing will let you see his black face for a whole year.

Back then when everyone was still the prince, King Jin accidentally made this mistake. As a result, Ji Qiyu didn't eat at the same table with King Jin for a whole year, and he didn't give him a good face for a whole year, and the relationship between the two ended. a debt.

Regarding Ji Qiyu's problem, the queen and the emperor also tried to change it, but in the end they all failed.Ji Qiyu, who became stubborn, would rather starve to death than eat a bite of someone else's food. Does the empress really want to watch him starve to death?
Obviously it was impossible, even if the emperor didn't like Ji Qiyu, he wouldn't just watch his son starve to death.After experimenting once, the empress gave up, and since then Ji Qiyu's obsession with cleanliness has been recognized.

Huiyu doesn't know how Ji Qiyu's cleanliness disorder was developed, but she also knows that many habits of people have a huge relationship with the environment in which they grew up.When the people around you are dangerous, you will inevitably become cautious to protect yourself.Maybe Ji Qiyu suffered a big loss in this aspect before, that's why she became like this.But Ji Qiyu didn't talk about it, and Huiyu wouldn't ask, just like Ji Qiyuming knew that her behavior was a little weird, but she couldn't resist asking, it was a kind of respect.

In a place like this in ancient times, it is actually a bit ridiculous to use the word respect, but Huiyu can feel this from Ji Qiyu.Perhaps this is the case, the two of them can gradually get to where they are today.

The interaction between Prince Jing and his wife was watched by many people, and of course the empress' eyes were not escaped either.The emperor's eyes swept over their husband and wife, the eyes were so dark that one could not see what they meant, but Huiyu had no time to estimate this way, she was talking to Ji Qiyu in a low voice, and then everyone saw that Prince Jing was black His complexion gradually calmed down. Although he hadn't returned to normal, he was already much better.

Because the officials in Jiangsu and the ministers had been arguing for a long time about the impeachment of Prince Jing in the court hall, coupled with Prince Jing's decisive and ruthless counterattack later, many people have tasted Prince Jing's methods, especially when he frowns and keeps silent. Feel terrified.Very early on, Ji Qiyu's reputation was linked to indifference, arrogance, and hot tactics. Even the emperor didn't see any changes in him, but now he was acting like this to his princess, how did everyone feel? , Huiyu didn't know.

The fireworks feast was held very grandly. Sister Zhao was held in Ji Qiyu's arms. The family of three stood together looking up at the gorgeous flowers blooming in the night sky. The intimate gesture seemed that nothing in this world could separate them , I don’t know how many people are envious.At least, among so many daughter-in-laws in the royal family, Dong Huiyu is the only one who doesn't have a concubine under her knees, and a woman who doesn't compete for favor by her side.

After the fireworks feast, the emperor took several princes to the front hall, Huiyu and other daughters-in-law bid farewell to the empress and returned to the palace.Sister Zhao was already a little sleepy after playing like crazy for a day, and she was lying in Nanny You's arms and half-closed her eyes to take a nap.Huiyu was wearing a big cloak and walked in front, followed by Nanny You and Nanny who were holding Sister Zhao's son, and the group walked out of the palace.

After walking a few steps, I suddenly heard a shout from behind, "Princess, please stay."

The voice was somewhat familiar to Huiyu, and when she turned around to see, it was the court lady who had led the way for her during the day, chasing after her. The cold night blew her cheeks pale and livid, and Huiyu paused. , and waited for her to trot over, and then asked: "But what does Concubine Han have to say?" After all, she was a maid in Concubine Han's palace, so Huiyu would naturally think that Xia Yingbai had something to do.

"Your Majesty knew that the princess was asleep, and it was cold at this time, so she specially asked the servant to bring a cloak to protect the princess from the cold, and also ordered the servant to lead the way for the princess to go out through the side door and get closer to the palace gate." He took out a token and handed it to Huiyu respectfully.

Concubines with high status and favor in the palace will indeed have a token to leave the palace, and it is more convenient to go out of the palace from a side door closer to the palace.Huiyu had never seen this kind of token before, so she didn't know the authenticity, so she looked at Mother You, no matter what time, even Huiyu who belonged to Xia Yingbai would be very cautious, it wasn't that she couldn't do it. Yingbai is a kind of instinct, the instinct of survival, which is a deep-rooted habit she developed when she was trained in the original world.

There are only a handful of people in this world who can hand over your back defenselessly.

Nanny You handed the big princess in her arms to the nanny, took the token and checked it carefully, and then said: "If you go back to the princess, this token is real."

Huiyu just smiled, looked at the palace and said: "Then it's hard work for you to make a trip, the empress is so caring, it is really grateful."

The palace man took the token back and walked in front to lead the way, saying as he walked: "The servant obeys the order, and does not talk about hard work, the princess is rewarded."

Huiyu smiled, because she was pregnant and it was dark, so she walked very slowly.Because Huiyu has no direct mother-in-law who is still alive, the other concubines have to go to their respective mother-in-law palaces to say goodbye at this time, and they are the only ones on this long palace road.Palace lanterns carved from stone pillars stand on both sides, emitting a dim and dim light, adding a bit of warmth to the night.

"Miss Qinghua's back injury is better? I'm too busy today, so I don't have time to ask." Huiyu chatted with the court lady while walking, and suddenly laughed softly when she was talking, "I don't know how to call you yet." .”

The palace maid was busy blessing her body, "The servant is called Yu Zhuo, and the humble people dare not bother the princess to think about it. Sister Qinghua's waist injury has healed, and there is no serious problem. If sister Qinghua knows that the princess is asking for such an inquiry, she will definitely be very happy. grateful."

Huiyu looked at her and smiled, "That's good." Then she looked at Yu Zhuo, "The girl's name is a bit special. I don't know where she is from. If you think there must be someone who studies in your family, you can take it out. name."

"My princess laughed, my father did know a few words, but it was only a few." Yu Zhuo pursed his lips and smiled, slowing down his steps in line with Princess Jing's pace.

Huiyu chatted with her and walked forward as usual, followed Yu Zhuo and turned onto another road, this road was much narrower than the main road we took just now, and the number of palace lanterns on both sides of the road also decreased a lot.Under the gloomy sky, it makes people feel a little depressed.

"...Jiangnan is a good place, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and there are beauties who are gentle and gentle. They are proficient in poetry and books, which is very different from the girls in the north."

"My hometown is a land of water and water. Every summer, the lotus leaves that meet the sky and the lotus flowers can always make people fascinated." It seems that when talking about his hometown, Yu Zhuo's tone has a bit of nostalgia , the voice also lowered, making people feel the homesickness.

"You can go home after you have lived in the palace for a long time. Miss Yu Zhuo has been in the palace for many years, so she is not far away from leaving the palace, right? Even so, there is no need to be so sad, you can always go back."

Yu Zhuo, who was leading the way, paused in her footsteps, but quickly moved away again, as if there was not such a slight pause, and then her voice sounded, "What the princess said is that the servant will be able to do it in two or three years. Went out of the palace and went home."

"Miss Yuzhuo misses her family so much, it shows that she has a very good relationship with her family. I don't know who else is in the family. If you want to send a letter to them, I can help facilitate it." Huiyu's soft voice echoed in the night It permeated the inside, revealing a bit of kindness.

Yu Zhuo didn't answer immediately, but replied after a while: "After the plague that year, there was no one at home."

"I'm really sorry for reminding you of something sad." Huiyu said.

"Princess, don't say that, let's go, we'll be here after turning this way." Yu Zhuo said with a smile, and stepped over the threshold of the moon cave in front.

At this moment, Mother You suddenly made a quick move, her thick arms strangled Yu Zhuo's neck and dragged her to the dark place on the other side of the Moon Cave Gate.

Huiyu stood coldly on the side of the door, watching Nanny You's movements without the slightest intention to stop her.At this moment, Yu Zhuo suddenly raised her foot and kicked back, as if she wanted to struggle out of Mammy You's restraint, and although she was thin and not very strong, she reached out her arms very quickly, especially in such a situation to protect herself The consciousness made her explosive power extraordinarily intense.

With a flick of Huiyu's wrist, she put her wrist on the palace maid's neck, and the cold blade pressed against her soft and warm skin. The murderous aura made Yu Zhuo instantly quiet.

The night is dark and lonely.

Behind the Moon Cave Gate, Hui Yu looked at Yu Zhuo, who was full of horror and suspicion, staring at her with a smile that was not a smile. The slightly raised eyebrows were obviously smiling, but it made people feel the killing intent from the bottom of their bones.

"Say, who are you from?" Huiyu slightly pushed forward the wrist holding the dagger.

Yu Zhuo only felt a stabbing pain in his neck, and the blood was still hot and humid along the neck, his face was pale, and he looked at Princess Jing with more and more horror, "I don't know how to offend the princess, please ask the princess Forgive me, forgive me..."

Huiyu supported her waist with her left hand, and when she heard Yu Zhuo's words, her smiling face turned cold instantly, and her eyes locked on her like a falcon, "You still refuse to tell the truth at this moment, you must think that I can't bear you, right?" ?”

Yu Zhuo didn't reply, but from her application, it can be seen that Hui Yu's words are correct.Even as Concubine Jing, she cannot kill people arbitrarily in the palace!
"First, I don't need to kill you to get what I want. Second, I don't need to dirty my hands if I want to kill you. Third, I dare to wield a knife in front of the master. You despise me too much." Or do you think too highly of yourself?" Huiyu retracted the knife in her hand, took out a white handkerchief and wiped off the blood on it, her movements were graceful and leisurely, without any anxiety or fear, as if everything in this world was in the same place. She's in control.
