Chapter 10
Seeing that Jun didn't pursue her, he just buried those maids and concubines who died unjustly, and pursued their titles.

The courtiers praised Jun Kuan for his benevolence, respect and filial piety, but Yu Ci felt that Zhu Guier's crimes were heinous, and not being held accountable would not be enough to alert future generations.But she also understands that if Zhu Gui'er is really pursued, the first emperor will definitely die and feel uneasy.Although he has never fulfilled his father's duties, he is still Jian Jun's father after all.Jian Jun hopes to help him fulfill his last wish.

Judging from this incident alone, Jian Jun's nature is indeed lenient, benevolent, pure and filial.

But often the more pure and filial you are, the less you will be cherished by your parents; the more lenient you are, the easier it is to be bullied.Thinking of what happened to Jian Jun in the past, Yu Ci felt that he didn't become cynical or twisted, but became the mean and awkward gentleman he is now, which is extremely rare.

Jian Jun came early that day, and the two had dinner together.

Yu Ci was in a bad mood, picked up a few chopsticks casually, and then quietly watched Jian Jun eat, picking up some dishes for him from time to time.She is not a person who is good at hiding, when she saw Jun, her eyes showed pity.

Jian Jun pretended not to know, only complaining that Yu Ci couldn't figure out his own weight, but he felt inexplicably enjoying it in his heart. He was obviously full, but he still asked Yu Ci to feed him soup twice more.

Ah Zhu watched from the side, always feeling that there was something wrong with these two people, until after eating, Yu Ci wiped the corners of Jian Jun's mouth, and then suddenly realized - this is not a husband and wife, it is clearly a scene of a mother and child getting along.

There was nothing private to say between the two, and they sat quietly opposite each other for a while after eating.

The atmosphere was probably a little awkward, so Jian Jun stood up and walked in Yu Ci's room for a while, flipped through the bookshelves, and looked at Yu Cilin's posts.He smiled and said, "Jianci likes to read?"

Yu Ci said: "I don't have anything to do on weekdays, I can only read books to pass the time."

Jian Jun said: "Why don't you go to Mingxiu Palace and play piano and sing with them, play chess and fish, feast and have fun with them, wouldn't it be much more interesting?"

Yu Ci smiled and said, "Jian Jun said that it is a day like a fairy. It's just that when you are at home, the elders teach you to be chaste and quiet every day, and not to be unrestrained. Once you enter the palace, you will reveal your true colors. Wouldn't it be a joke?"

Seeing Jun raised his eyebrows, he said in disgust, "Your kindness is boring."

Yuci smiled and said, "It's just out of my control..." Just when it came to Mingxiu Palace, Yuci was about to say hello to Jian Jun, so she said, "I'm thinking of assigning them to other palaces to live separately. Mingxiu The four courtyards of the palace should always be reserved for the virtuous, virtuous and virtuous concubines, not to mention that the four of them live in one courtyard, which is a bit crowded."

Jian Jun squinted his eyes and looked at her for a while, then said calmly: "You can decide these things yourself, but it's just a matter of division, don't forget to let me know."

Yu Ci nodded, and said with a smile, "Of course I can't forget it." After thinking about it, she asked, "Next spring, does Jian Jun have any plans for a draft?"

Jian Jun paused, as if he didn't expect Xie Ci to ask such a question.He has become a habit of bullying Yuci, and he almost blurted out saying yes, but after thinking about it for a while, he still said: "I used to... I heard people say that every time there is a general election, people with daughters in designated places rush to marry off their daughters. , Sometimes they don't care about the right family, just drag a cripple and a mute on the street to pay homage. Even so, they don't want to send their daughter to the palace. That being the case, why should I compete with the cripple and mute for a woman? Besides, the draft really disturbs the people It hurts money, it’s only been three years since the last draft, and I’m also afraid that the local government will be overwhelmed.” He looked at Yu Ci, his bright black eyes glowing softly under the lamp, “Is there not enough people around you?”

Yu Ci looked at him with a smile and said, "Enough."

Although the excuse was that he didn't want to compete with the lame and dumb for women, but that was just the result of his usual awkward temper.Seeing that what Jun was really thinking about was to disturb the people in the draft, he was only a 15-year-old kid, but he was able to think this way, and Chi Chi was very impressed.Therefore, even if there are really not enough people in the palace, she can spare some people to find a way to turn around, so why bother Jian Jun by speaking out.

Jian Jun nodded and said, "That's good."

Jian Jun smiled and said: "You are not feeling well today, so I won't stay here. Xiuyi is sick. I was very busy in the morning, so I didn't take care of her. I will go see her later."

Yu Ci softened her eyes and said, "Okay."

The guard of honor disappeared far into the night.Yu Ci gathered the cloak on her body, turned and entered the hall under the poorly concealed sympathetic gazes of the maids and eunuchs.

She didn't think it was wrong for Jian Jun to leave halfway.Miu Chi was actually very pleased that he offered to see Lin Xiuyi.She always felt that as a superior person with the power of life and death in her hands, even if she couldn't feel compassionate from the heart, at least she should be able to hang herself and hurt her, and she couldn't bear it.When she was reading history books, she always wondered, what kind of thoughts do those men who can't even sympathize with the women beside them care about the people of the world.

She has walked a lot today, and after seeing and hearing two chilling things, she feels exhausted.As soon as Jun left, he felt drowsy.After a hasty wash, he went back to his room and went to sleep.

Lin Xiuyi's child was indeed lost.

She was Jian Jun's first favored court lady.That day when Jian Jun went to the secret pavilion and saw her collecting books, her back was peaceful and quiet, her heart suddenly moved, and she pampered her on a whim.He didn't do any protection at the time, and he didn't think about whether he would have children.It was the eunuch in the respect room who came to report to Yuci according to the rules, and Yuci put her in a good place, and sent the imperial doctor to ask for pulse, and then she remembered it after seeing Jun.

His foundation is not stable, and all the power in the government is in the hands of the auxiliary ministers. Naturally, he doesn't want the child to be born under such circumstances - firstly, he has no time to take care of him, and secondly, he doesn't want to give non-subjects a chance to support the young master.So he asked Xiao Chaozi to find the imperial physician behind his back, and added musk to Lin Xiuyi's medicine.

What Jian Jun thought at the time was just in case, he didn't expect that Lin Xiuyi was really pregnant with his child.

He himself is actually still a child, and he doesn't want to have a child now, but when Lu Ming went to report to him today, his first reaction turned out to be joy and anticipation, as long as he thinks that there will be someone in this world who will follow him He is connected by blood, and that kind of god-given bond cannot be severed by anyone. He can create a peaceful and prosperous world for this child, and share his achievements and joys with him, and he is so excited that he cannot control himself.

But he still thought of it after all—this child came at the wrong time.

Let the imperial doctor go, the original intention is to completely get rid of this child.But he couldn't say it.

Then he made an excuse for himself and asked Xiao Chaozi to protect the child while taking Xiao Anzi.

After all, Xiao Anzi was still weak in recovery.Lin Xiuyi's child has indeed been aborted.

Seeing that Jun felt at a loss for a moment, he went to the palace of Yuci in a trance. When Yuci held his hand, he felt a coldness in his heart.

After warming up, he thought that he should go and see the child who had no fate with him.He should visit the mother of his first child.

Overnight, everyone in the palace was talking about Lin Xiuyi.

Although the imperial physician only said that she had a deficiency of the spleen and did not control the blood, the rumors were always more vigorous, not to mention that the things on the stage in the palace were covered up layer by layer, so the rumors touched the truth even more.Everyone knew that Lin Xiuyi had a miscarriage.

And everyone didn't believe that her child was aborted on her knees, but believed that it was Yu Ci who drugged her.

When Ah Zhu heard these rumors, she was so angry that she slapped the eunuch who was talking nonsense.

Ayu was completely stunned—the rumor was too vicious, beyond her comprehension.

Only Yu Ci remained calm, doing whatever she was supposed to do, as if her appetite wasn't affected in the slightest.

Azhu almost grabbed Yuci's ear and taught her how to fight, how to fight back, and how to take the initiative to attack. Yuci's only reaction was to eat in silence, occasionally interjecting to ask her if she had figured out how to get close to the money.

Everyone said that Lin Xiuyi was a blessing in disguise.

Not only was she the first to move out of the temporary courtyard of Mingxiu Palace, but she was also promoted to Zhaorong. Jian Jun went to visit her for ten days in a row, and pearls, jade, and rare medicinal materials were sent to Fenghua Palace where she lived one after another.Her two older brothers were also rewarded with errands and knighted.

But Lin Xiuyi was depressed all day long.The imperial doctor asked her to lie down for a full month. Her personality was not lively and cheerful, and now she didn't say a word for three to five days, just leaning on the bed, silently looking at the sky outside the lattice window.

The sisters who lived in the same hall with her earlier still came to visit her every day, and they felt uneasy seeing her like this, and gradually stopped coming.Shuzhen still came to talk to her every day.

On this day Ah Zeng went to her bedside to wipe tears again, and advised her not to get angry with herself, saying that although some people are looking at the scenery now, they will eventually be punished one day.

Lin Xiuyi suddenly became more energetic, reached out her hand to interrupt Shuzhen, and told Bi Yuan that she wanted to eat pineapple.

There was no such item in her case.Biyuan remembered that Yuci Zhuangzi sent pineapple over a few days ago—although she had heard the rumors, she had seen Yuci with her own eyes, and she always felt that Yuci was not such a bad person.She also had some friendship with Ayu, so she packed up and went to Shoucheng Hall to ask Ayu for pineapples.

After Bi Yuan left, Lin Xiuyi lay down flat, and said to A Zeng, "Sister, tell me the truth, am I suffering from spleen deficiency or miscarriage?"

Ah Zeng wrung the handkerchief and looked left and right, and said, "Sister, why bother to ask questions knowingly."

Lin Xiuyi was silent for a moment, and then said: "Then sister, tell me, did the child abort by herself, or... medicine."

Ah Zeng opened his mouth, hesitated to speak, turned his eyes away, and said: "Sister asked knowingly again. You really knelt down that day."

Xiuyi's face turned cold, she grabbed Shuzhen's hand, and said, "You're right, one day you will be punished. Ever since I entered this palace gate, I never imagined that I could get out alive. I also I never expected to give birth to a prince or lord, never thought about competing for favor with anyone... I just want to live in peace and with a clear conscience." She said that the circles of her eyes were already red, "But she doesn't dislike my incompetence and is willing to Be reincarnated as my child, and stay with me in the deep palace...I won't let her go without knowing why."

Ah Zeng was frightened by the coldness in her eyes, felt that she was so strong that she was about to break his own hand, and dodged in a panic: "It's good that my sister can think so, but I can't be in a hurry..."

Lin Xiuyi suddenly let go of her hand, lay back down quietly, and said, "You're right, there's no need to be in a hurry. I have to find the enemy first, and if I'm being used as a chess piece on impulse, the child is watching, and I have to disappointed."

Shuzhen felt that she had been disturbed by something, she was terribly calm, and hurriedly said: "What Xiuyi said is that it's getting late, so I'll take my leave first."

Lin Xiuyi said: "Well, you go first today."

Shuzhen left tremblingly, Xiuyi looked at her back coldly, with a glint of indifference in her eyes.
