Chapter 4
Concubine Huang was sitting on the bed with her eyes closed, and a little maid was sitting on the pier beside the bed and fanning her to drive away some of the summer heat.Even though there was an ice cellar in the villa, she didn't dare to use ice in this room, for fear that if she accidentally got over the cold and caught a cold, it would be troublesome.

Caressing Shang's flat belly, a little smile appeared on Huang's pale face.

Concubine Huang's family background is much lower than that of Princess Jing, who died young. Her natal family is just a small landlord near the capital, and she doesn't even know a few big characters.She was just an ordinary court lady when she entered the palace in the early years. She was made a side concubine because she gave birth to Prince Jing's eldest son, but the child died before half a year old.

This is her second pregnancy, and with the shadow of the previous one, she couldn't help but be careless.Besides, she knew how much Prince Jing valued this child.

"Ma'am, the princess is here."

Hearing the servants raising their voices outside to report, Concubine Huang hurriedly asked the little girl to stop playing the fan, and helped her to sit up.

Even though she was a concubine, Concubine Huang did not dare to put on airs in front of Yun Ruochen.Not only because Yun Ruochen is the daughter of a princess and has the title of princess, but also because the prince has always spoiled the only child very much. It can be said that besides the prince, she has the highest status in the palace.

In the past, Yun Ruochen's temperament was quite like Nai's father, he was quiet and reticent, and never left his yard when he had nothing to do.After coming to this other courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing, Concubine Huang was only focused on the fetus, but she didn't realize that Yun Ruochen had already changed her soul.

"Greetings to your mother."

Yun Ruochen bowed to Concubine Huang with a smile, and Concubine Huang hurriedly asked someone to help her up, and said repeatedly: "Princess, please get up." Then he asked someone to set up a seat for Yun Ruochen to watch tea.

The little maid hurriedly brewed a cup of strong tea, and held it in front of Yun Ruochen with both hands.Yun Ruochen took the tea, lifted the lid of the teacup, and pretended to blow on the powdered tea, but in fact, he was sneaking a glance at Concubine Huang's complexion.

Concubine Huang has narrow eyebrows and narrow eyes. From the perspective of physiognomy, such a woman has good luck in marriage.Especially a woman with her type of slender eyes tends to have stronger endurance than others. She may suffer some hardships when she is young, but she is often very happy in her old age.Looking at her ears close to her face, it can be seen that her temperament is gentle and docile, which is the appearance of IKEA.

But what Yun Ruochen paid most attention to was her nose.Because the nose is the palace of wealth and silk, it can often represent a person's life's wealth and career, and a well-trained physicist can better judge a woman's husband and childbearing status from the shape of the nose.

Yun Ruochen thought to himself, the fortune teller that my father invited yesterday was not talking nonsense.At least in her opinion, Concubine Huang's birth was not only a boy, but also seemed to have a noble fate.

But whether it can be kept is the big question!

You must know that fate is not static, on the contrary, people's fortune will change all the time due to surrounding influences and circumstances.Yun Ruochen could deduce that Concubine Huang was destined to have a son, but she had already given birth to a son, but she didn't keep it.

Whether or not the concubine Huang's child can be kept is the key to the current battle for King Jing Cheng's succession.

The old emperor is almost sixty, but for some reason he still refuses to establish a prince.If he suddenly becomes famous, and King Jing has no son, he will definitely not be able to compete with King Cheng!

Although Prince Jing still had her daughter, and the Qing Dynasty had a history of female emperors succeeding to the throne, it was just that one.Moreover, that was under the premise that the emperor was extremely powerful and had only one daughter, and there happened to be no suitable children in the clan to choose from...

Less than three years after the empress succeeded to the throne, she could not bear the pressure of all parties and was forced to abdicate to her distant cousin, who is the grandfather of the current emperor Yuan Qi of the Qing Dynasty.Yun Ruochen didn't think that ministers and nobles would take the risk of choosing Prince Jing, who might be doomed to have no son, as the new emperor when they had a choice.

Yun Ruochen didn't come here today simply because he wanted to look after Concubine Huang.As early as the day when Concubine Huang came here from the capital, she had deduced her fate for Concubine Huang by magic.The reason why she came here was because of the killer's invasion last night, which aroused her vigilance enough.

Nie Shen assured her that the staff and food in the other courtyard are absolutely safe.She didn't ask Nie Shen why he was so confident, but she subconsciously believed what he said.

So she didn't worry about Huang's side concubine being plotted against by her family for the time being, but she was still not at ease about the safety of her room.

"Your Majesty, this room is really well furnished."

Yun Ruochen showed a childlike innocent smile, got up and walked around the room, touching here and there, as if he was really interested in the things in Huang Fangfei's room.

It is undeniable that Concubine Huang's taste may not be very elegant, and she seems to be quite good at housework.

This small room originally only had simple furniture. She had only been here for a few days, but it was quite comfortable.For example, she asked people to hang soft curtains made of thin bamboo silk on the doors and windows, which can keep the doors and windows ventilated and prevent the people in the house from being exposed to the wind.This is the habit of the people in the south, and it is not popular in the capital. Since Huang Fangfei can't use ice, she thought of this method to cool down the house.

Seeing Yun Ruochen curiously playing with the bamboo curtain on the window, Concubine Huang hurriedly said: "If the princess likes it, I still have several bamboo curtains in my box, so I can send someone to send it to the princess later? "

"No need!" Yun Ruochen put down the bamboo curtain and giggled, "I'm quite afraid of the heat, and there's an ice basin in the room these few nights."

"Huh?" Concubine Huang froze for a moment, then looked at Yun Ruochen with some worry: "Princess, is this bad?"

Everyone in the palace knew that Princess Huarong was small and weak, and would get seriously ill every season, and her complexion was always sick.A few days ago, it was because of the severe summer heat in the capital that the medical officer in the mansion suggested that she come here to recuperate for a period of time.Concubine Huang remembered that she had heard that Yun Ruochen had a high fever half a month ago, and became more worried about Yun Ruochen's physical condition.

This woman has a kind heart.Yun Ruochen looked at her with a smile, and said: "It's okay, the doctor also said that I am in good health now, and it doesn't matter to use the ice basin occasionally in the house. By the way, Madam, I have lived here for a while, and I feel that my bones are very good. If there are too many, you should stay longer."

"is it?"

Only then did Concubine Huang carefully scrutinize Xia Yun Ruochen's complexion, and found that she was indeed different from before.Usually, although her skin is fair, she has a faint greenness, like a sick Xi Shi.Right now, Yun Ruochen still has fair skin, but his cheeks have a healthy blush, and his eyes are sparkling and extremely energetic.

"Indeed, I've lived here for a few days, and the stuffiness in my chest has disappeared a lot. It seems that the climate in this mountain is to support people." Huang Fangfei rubbed her chest and smiled.When Yun Ruochen said this, she also remembered that she had never had morning sickness since she came here.

Yun Ruochen thought, that's natural.After Concubine Huang moved in, she specially set up a magic circle for this courtyard.But in the past, she only focused on calming Concubine Huang's mind. After what happened last night, she came here specially to strengthen the security of Concubine Huang's house.

Just now she walked around the room and set up some things in several key positions, forming a small Qimen Bagua array to block evil spirits.It's a pity that she has no magic skills, but this weak body is completely unable to communicate with the power of heaven and earth.Otherwise, with her previous cultivation, drawing a few talismans and sticking them around would be more effective than anything else.

Speaking of this, another matter in Yun Ruochen's mind was aroused, and even someone with such a tough mind couldn't help but want to lament.

It was only recently that she realized that this body of hers was actually a rare congenital degeneration!
The so-called Juemai refers to a terminal illness in which the veins have been blocked since birth.Of course, although it is a terminal illness, there are degrees of severity, just like congenital myopia and congenital blindness, there is still an essential difference.

Yun Ruochen's dead veins belonged to the kind that was more than the bottom than the top.The blockage of her meridians will make her body very weak and she will be very prone to illness, but as long as she takes care of her properly, she can live like a normal person.But if she wanted to practice Qi, she absolutely couldn't, because the meridians in her whole body were isolated, and her vitality couldn't flow at all.

This really made Yun Ruochen extremely depressed!

For a warlock, if they can't cultivate their vitality, even if they are proficient in spells, their power is limited.Don't talk about fighting with people, just want to deduce some more complicated people and things, and even concocting talismans will be restricted.To put it more simply, she is a toothless tiger now, and it would be good if she could score one or two points for the original ten cost...

Alas, it makes me cry...

Therefore, Yun Ruochen had to try his best to keep Prince Jing's family.Otherwise, there would be no eggs in the nest, and without the protection of Prince Jing's Mansion, it would be very difficult for a helpless little girl to survive in the strange world outside.

Yun Ruochen chatted with Concubine Huang about family matters before leaving.After leaving Concubine Huang's courtyard, it was already getting dark, and night was about to fall again.

Tonight, will anyone come to sneak attack?
