Splendid concubine

Chapter 88
Of course the imperial concubine would not want to see Ruyi marrying the second prince.

She also had that reason, if she wished to marry the second prince, then the second prince would lose a way to win her over with the position of concubine.

But at the same time, she also knew in her heart that the main thing was to look at the emperor. No matter how capable the second prince was, he was still an outsider. It was impossible for the emperor to allow her to inherit the throne. The only thing left to do was to look at the child in her stomach.

The child in the stomach is a boy, so he will naturally have the opportunity to inherit the throne in the future, and it is worth fighting for, but if the child is a girl in the stomach, I am afraid that it will not be possible to perform a civet cat for the prince, and she is not young anymore. It is estimated that she will never be able to conceive again, success or failure is in one fell swoop.

But whether there is a man or a woman in this stomach is not something that can be controlled by oneself, it depends on the will of heaven.

Liu Ruyi counted the time, the child in the womb of the imperial concubine was exactly the one in her previous life, and she was also conceived at this time, so it must be a boy. Although other circumstances have changed a bit, the child in the womb of the imperial concubine was conceived at exactly the right time Well, nothing should change.

All her bargaining chips were placed in the belly of the imperial concubine for the sake of the child being a prince.

If the imperial concubine is still a girl in her womb, I'm afraid she will have to make another plan.

How to let the second prince who is not of royal blood ascend the throne may not be easy.

"Oh, sister, don't you like Ruyi? I think you like Ruyi very much. Why can't you let her be your daughter-in-law? Could it be that you just pretend to like it?" The Empress looked at it with a smile. Xiang Liu Ruyi said.

The imperial concubine, on the other hand, smiled sweetly. She didn't want to show her scheming side in front of the emperor, so she smiled and said to the queen, "Sister, what are you talking about? I like this girl Ruyi very much, but I have long since put her in my heart." She has become her own daughter, so she always feels that it is weird that she is with our second child. Besides, even if she is not Bengong's daughter-in-law, she can't come in and accompany Bengong from time to time? Even if she is married Now, isn't it normal for me to summon her into the palace to accompany me?"

The empress sneered twice, she didn't think of how to fight back against the imperial concubine, let alone argue with the imperial concubine, she just wanted to plan how to match the second prince and Liu Ruyi.

After sitting for a while and saying a few words, the empress returned with the two maids.

Liu Ruyi's heart that was hanging just now finally let go a little bit.

She knew what kind of character the empress is. If she said that, she must find a way to match the second prince with her, but the second prince was obviously interested in Mu Zitan.

If I married the second prince, wouldn't I just sit and wait and turn against the group of concubines and empresses?
The imperial concubine must also want the second prince to marry Mu Zitan.

Mu Zitan will definitely not be bullied when he marries back to the Mu House.

Thinking of this, Liu Ruyi lay on the bed and sighed.

After Mu Zitan finished washing, he leaned over and excitedly said to Liu Ruyi: "Ruyi, I'm not used to being a princess for the first time. It's a sudden blunt statement. I haven't told my grandmother and mother yet. You say they Will you blame me?"

Seeing her anxious look, Liu Ruyi suddenly smiled, "Why would they? Your father didn't lose his temper. The Mu family can take advantage of this opportunity to take a step closer. It's too late for your grandmother to be happy. How could she be angry? Wait until tomorrow Let's find a chance, and I will accompany you home."

Mu Zitan sighed, "Where is the Mu Mansion as home now, isn't my home in the palace?"

Liu Ruyi suddenly laughed, "Oh, have you adapted to your new identity so quickly?"

Mu Zitan came over and pushed Liu Ruyi with a blushing face, "What about you, why were you sighing just now? Now that I'm a princess, I can protect you. Come on and let me know if I can help you. .”

Liu Ruyi smiled slightly, and said seriously to her: "Zitan, tell me, do you like the second prince?"

"Second, the second prince? Isn't he my brother in name now?" Mu Zitan stammered, obviously a little guilty.

Liu Ruyi laughed, "That's because I like it? It's just a nominal brother, not an actual brother. I think the imperial concubine intends to marry you back to the Mu Mansion. Then think about it, the original grandmother and mother, Now that I have become a mother-in-law and a great-grandmother, I still treat you well, what is there to be unhappy about, both sides are like mothers-in-law."

Mu Zitan also smiled slightly after being told by Liu Ruyi, with his head lowered and blushing, infinitely shy.

Liu Ruyi sighed again, Mu Zitan pushed her a few times, and said to her, "Just now I asked you why you sighed, why did you ask me?"

Looking at Mu Zitan's blushing face, Liu Ruyi said: "That's why I sighed. You and the second prince are considered to be in love with each other. The imperial concubine and the Mu family also agree. It is a match made in heaven. The emperor probably also agrees. Your Majesty is just a biological daughter like you, so naturally he doesn't want you to be wronged, and will definitely let you marry well. But today, the Empress Empress means that she insists on marrying me to the Second Prince."

After thinking about it for a while, although Mu Zitan was very reluctant, he still said generously: "Isn't it good that we all marry the same person? We are sisters, and we will be sisters in the future. How good it is, we can get along every day. See you, we can be together every day."

Hearing this, Liu Ruyi poked the silly girl's head fiercely, "You silly girl, you still don't like her very much now, but when you like her deeply, you will know that you don't want to share your man with others."

After hearing this, Mu Zitan blushed, and whispered, "What nonsense are you talking about? My man?"

Liu Ruyi chuckled, and Mu Zitan continued to ask: "Didn't you say that the empress must match you and the second prince? But didn't you say it? Even if you don't marry the second prince, you can still enter the palace every day." , why do you have to marry me?"

"Silly girl, you don't understand the twists and turns. Although we know that the second prince is not the emperor's own son, the empress doesn't know. Seeing that the emperor recognized you, the empress naturally treats you as the second prince. Twins of a dragon and a phoenix, the only princess in the palace is you."

Changing her posture, Liu Ruyi continued: "The emperor always dotes on the imperial concubine and the second prince. Now that the imperial concubine is pregnant again, all the advantages are with the imperial concubine. Isn't the empress anxious? Thinking of the second prince also When you are about to accept a concubine, if you marry a strong supporter from your mother's family, the advantage of the second prince will be even more obvious, and the empress will definitely play tricks on the choice of the second prince."

"This princess, it sounds nice, but her actual identity is just a concubine's daughter in the prime minister's mansion. There is no aunt in the prime minister's mansion to protect her. On the surface, her status is very high, but in fact she is not as good as a third- and fourth-rank Beijing official's family." What about the prostitute?" Sighing, Liu Ruyi laughed at herself.

When talking, I forgot that Mu Zitan is not the daughter of a third-rank and fourth-rank Beijing official family, but fortunately, she is no longer.

"how could be?"

Mu Zitan opened his eyes wide, and looked at Liu Ruyi suspiciously, "The old grandmother in your house loves you so much, so naturally she won't let you marry poorly, and will definitely support you."

"How long can the old grandmother live? It is the master of the family who decides the daughter's marriage, isn't it the mother who blows the pillow in front of the father? Besides, your grandmother loves you, and my grandmother just thinks I am useful. Before When I'm not expressing myself, don't ask me at all."

Seeing Mu Zitan's surprised look, Liu Ruyi continued: "Although if I married the second prince, I would secretly acquiesce to the faction with the second prince, but if I say that my sister married another prince, it will make it difficult for both sides of the Prime Minister's house. , my eldest sister is married to the crown prince, then the Prime Minister must be close to my eldest sister, she is a legitimate daughter, more reliable."

Mu Zitan still didn't quite understand these things, so he frowned and thought for a long time, finally he firmly clenched his fists and said to Liu Ruyi: "No matter what, I want to protect you anyway. Mother dotes on me, so I'm not afraid."

"You are really lucky. If I am not a good sister with you, I will be jealous. You are good-looking and have a good life. When you marry someone later, your mother-in-law and great-grandmother will love you again." Liu Ruyi said with a sigh.

"In the future, my parents will also be your parents, so they will love you too. I see that my mother and my grandmother love you very much. You might as well marry me to the second prince." Mu Zitan was still a little naive, I have always insisted on wanting poor Liu Ruyi to marry with her.

Sighing, Liu Ruyi turned over and fell asleep.

Just after detoxification, Liu Ruyi's body was still very weak and tired, and she slept soundly all night.

Early the next morning, the two little girls washed up under the service of the maids.

The Shangyi Bureau also changed a few clothes and rushed to make them overnight, in order to please the princess and the little princess.

The rest of the palace tried hard to please the little princess.

Knowing that the little princess's best sister is the newly-appointed princess, they all rushed to please her.

When going to the main hall to have dinner with the imperial concubine, the imperial concubine hurriedly beckoned them to come closer.

"Just now the kitchen came to ask what our little princess and princess would like to eat and what kind of food they like, because you haven't woken up yet, the kitchen has made a lot of tricks and sent them over, all of which are set on big tables. I can't let it go."

Sure enough, Liu Ruyi looked up and saw that the big table was full of all kinds of food.

Inside is a shrimp dumpling with whole shrimp. The skin is thin and the stuffing is big. It is crystal clear. You can see the steamed pink shrimp and crab roe dumplings. Just smell it and you want to eat it. There are also siu mai, smelling it The taste is also very good.

The noodles are more delicate, covered with golden eggs, served with vegetable leaves, poured a spoonful of sauce on top, and many other tricks that Liu Ruyi didn't know well.

Looking at it, there are also millet porridge, red bean barley porridge, wolfberry porridge, minced chicken porridge, bird's nest porridge, beef egg porridge, etc. Liu Ruyi's eyes are dazzled.
