Chapter 185

Inside Shuhua Palace.

Concubine Hui was wearing a goose-yellow coat, with a plain face, holding a white candle in her hand, and walked slowly into the small side room.

The furnishings in the side room are extremely simple, with a small square table in the middle and a small copper incense burner standing on it, nothing else.

Sitting in front of the table, Concubine Hui took out a strip of white cloth from the sleeve of her robe, put it on the candle and lit it, and all the ashes of the strip fell into the incense burner.

Half of her face was shrouded in candlelight, and the other half was hidden in darkness.

"Everything in the world has a karmic price. Everything requires a balanced cycle. What you owe to it will eventually be repaid."

"Mother only hopes that you will be safe in this life, and never use this method."

Concubine Hui's eyes were far away, and the words that her mother had said to her once came to mind.

But she has no way out, no matter what the price is, she will do it.

Concubine Hui put her hand on her lower abdomen.

From the first time she saw Emperor Jiawen, she was moved by his temperament, and she fell in love with this man desperately.

But he is really indifferent, like a stunned young man who doesn't understand the style, all the little thoughts and deliberate throws and hugs he plays seem to be invisible to him.

She thought she could wait, but in the end, the daughter of Zuo Cheng's family was going to marry him, and he agreed.

Ning Tingyue couldn't help seeing another woman standing beside him, and couldn't bear the sedan chair being carried into his mansion, so she made the first big decision in her life.

She used secret techniques to make Emperor Jiawen fall in love with her irresistibly at the expense of her own children and grandchildren.

Ning Tingyue held a trace of hope in her heart. Among those who used this technique in the past, there were also lucky ones. They escaped the curse and gave birth to children. This same luck might also fall on themselves.

Over the years, she has never given up on the matter of pregnancy. Emperor Mingli Jiawen sent many imperial physicians to take care of her body. She tried many folk remedies in secret, but so far she still hasn't seen the result.

Before she is pregnant with a child, she will not allow a child to appear in the harem.

"sieve--"

A black shadow suddenly flashed across the paper window illuminated by the candlelight. Concubine Hui raised her eyes, and the candlelight suddenly turned into the shape of a cat's tail, swinging slowly.

She just sat and watched until the candle burned out.

"Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this 'spring'?"

Xiao Wanwan held a slender slat in her hand and tapped the paper on the table: "Master He, the spring is just like a bowstring. If the arrow is to be shot far, the bowstring must be fully drawn and stored up." Force can have greater power. The bows and arrows used in Liannu are made of copper and iron, and the bowstrings twisted with beef tendon are naturally unable to be pulled, and the force is limited, so it is necessary to make springs twisted out of copper. .”

He Zhou seemed to be educated, and wanted to ask about other things. He opened his mouth and called "Ms. Zhaoyi" several times, but Xiao Wanwan seemed to have not heard it, his eyes were empty, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Duan Wang tugged at her sleeve: "Yan Zhaoyi, you've recovered."

Only then did Xiao Wanwan turn her face away: "Go ahead and ask."

Xu Zhang wondered, "Why didn't the emperor come today?"

Xiao Dezi, who was waiting at the side, explained: "The envoy from the Southern Kingdom is going back today, and the emperor is receiving him."

Xu Zhangdao: "Southern country? Is that the southern country that sent beauties here?"

Duan Wang looked at Xiao Wanwan thoughtfully, and as expected, her face became even more stinky.
