With the interruption of Xiao Fei's incident, Nangong Yue gradually recovered from the loss after Xiao Yi left.

A few days later, Zhu Xing sent another message, saying that Xiao Fei had been found. They originally wanted to send her back to southern Xinjiang, but the girl was stubborn and wanted to "convince people with reason" at first. After realizing that the guards couldn't explain anything, they simply took advantage of the time to go to the clean room and ran away.

Nangong Yue felt even more headache after hearing this. After all, Xiao Fei is from a girl's family, and her guards are all rich men. They always have taboos. If she wants to run away, she really can't stop her.

Nangong Yue simply asked Zhu Xing to send some women there, and when she found Xiao Fei, she asked the women to take care of her before sending her back to southern Xinjiang.

However, there was no news about the big girl after that.

On the one hand, Nangong Yue asked people to continue searching, but on the other hand, she finally cheered up.

However, living alone in this empty Zhennan Prince's Mansion, apart from serving as a minister, she was so busy that she didn't even bother to practice the piano.

"Meow!"

A majestic cat meowing outside the window made Nangong Yue put down the notebook in her hand and leaned against the window to look out. She couldn't help but be startled when she saw Meow White climbing up. The camphor tree in the yard was standing on the treetop, showing off its power to the eagle Xiao Hui in the air.

"Xiaobai!"

Nangong Yue was afraid that it would fall, so she yelled anxiously. Xiaobai turned his head and looked at her, and gave a proud "meow" twice. Then he pushed **** his hind legs, as if he could fly, and rushed towards Xiao Hui. Pounced.

At that moment, Nangong Yue was dumbfounded and almost wanted to imitate Xiao Yi and climb out of the window.

In fact, she did just that. Just when she sat on the window citron and was about to turn outwards, she saw Xiao Bai, who had failed to successfully pounce on Xiao Hui, flipping over deftly in mid-air. Landed firmly on the ground.

It seemed to be still unconvinced. After shaking its fur, it threatened Xiao Hui with "Meow-woo!"

Xiao Hui circled in mid-air, then suddenly swooped down, pecked Xiao Bai on the head, and then flew high into the sky.

Xiaobai shouted "Meow!" and ran after him.

Nangong Yue’s heart dropped, so Lily, who was opening the curtain and walking in, was stunned to see her always dignified and virtuous Crown Princess sitting on the window rafter without any image. Time was dumbfounded.

Nangong Yue smiled sheepishly.

Lily quickly stepped forward and helped her down, thinking to herself: This is all the prince's fault!

Nangong Yue blinked her eyes innocently and hurriedly changed the subject: "What's the matter?"

Lily coughed twice, held back her smile, and said with a low eyebrow, "Prince Princess, Sister Yimei is here."

"Yimei...ah!"

Nangong Yue couldn't help but want to pat her head, and almost forgot about it.

After Yimei reconciled, she asked Nangong Yue to choose another marriage for her. Nangong Yue also carefully searched for her, but there was no good candidate. And just a few days ago, Zhou Dacheng came to her and wanted to be a matchmaker for a guard named Sun Ye in the palace to marry Yimei.

Sun Ye is twenty-five this year. He got married once when he was seventeen years old. However, Sun Ye's first wife was weak and died five years ago. She also failed to give birth to a son and a half daughters. Moreover, Sun Ye's parents died young, and only one sister was married, so the family was very quiet.

When Zhou Dacheng said the last sentence, it was profound.

Nangong Yuechu was quite satisfied after hearing this. Sun Ye was from the mansion and knew everything about him, and Zhou Dacheng was the mediator, so his character should not be much different.

However, thinking of Yimei's previous marriage, Nangong Yue still did not dare to agree rashly. She sent someone to ask Sun Ye's neighbors to find out about his daily life, whether there were any difficult relatives in the family, and about Sun Ye's sister and her. So what about the husband's family...

After inquiring about the situation, Nangong Yue called Yimei and told Zhou Dacheng about protecting the matchmaker, and also briefly talked about Sun Ye's situation. Yimei's reply was still the same as before, saying that everything depends on Nangong Yue decides.

So, Nangong Yue arranged a meeting, thinking that if they were suitable, this might be a good marriage.

No, Yimei is already here, but she almost got the wrong date.

I've been really absent-minded lately.

Nangong Yue ordered to Lily: "Let Yimei come in."

After a while, Yimei came in to greet her. Perhaps because of her marriage, Yimei didn't have much shyness on her face, her eyes were clear, and she looked dignified and generous.

Nangong Yue took Lily and Yimei to the front yard. In the side hall outside Xiao Yi's study, the mother-in-law moved a screen over and hid behind it.

After she gave the order, Zhou Dacheng led a young man dressed as a guard into the side hall.

"I have met the Crown Princess." The two of them saluted Nangong Yue behind the screen.

"No courtesy." Nangong Yue said as she looked at the young man through the screen. She saw that the young man was about the same height as Zhou Dacheng, with a strong build and dark complexion. Although he looked like Zhou Zheng, he was energetic. Very, there is a sense of righteousness all over his body, and his eyes are clear and upright.

Nangong Yue looked at her and nodded secretly. After asking a few questions, she looked at Yimei and asked her what she meant with her eyes.

Yimei hesitated for a moment, then raised her eyes to look at Nangong Yue with clear eyes. She leaned down slightly and asked in a low voice: "Prince Concubine, can I ask him a few questions in person?"

Nangong Yue was stunned for a moment, then responded with a smile.

Yimei walked out from behind the screen.

Sun Ye was slightly surprised, then looked at her calmly.

"Sun Wei," Yimei looked at Sun Ye with clear eyes, "do you know that I am a married woman?"

"I know." Sun Ye nodded, "I am a man who lost his wife."

Yimei continued: "The reason why I reconciled and divorced was because I couldn't tolerate my husband taking concubines."

"I never thought about taking concubines." Sun Ye said again.

"But what if I can't have children?" Yimei asked sharply and sharply, looking at him momentarily, as if she was afraid of missing every subtle reaction of his, "What will happen to you then?"

"But are you feeling ill?" Sun Ye looked at Yimei seriously, "Which doctor said this?"

"It's not what a doctor said. It's just..." Yimei's face looked slightly downcast and she hesitated to speak.

She once went to see a doctor because she had been unable to conceive for many years, but the doctor said she was fine. Even the Crown Princess affirmed that she was fine. However, it is a fact that there are no children.

"Since the doctor didn't say it, then what are you worried about?" Sun Ye didn't seem to understand, "The doctor said that my health is fine. Since there is no problem with our health, the child will be born sooner or later, so don't worry. ”

Yimei looked at Sun Ye dumbfounded, what are these words? As if she was desperate to have a baby.

She became a little angry and said: "I mean what if, what if I don't give birth to a son and a half daughter..."

"It's easy, just adopt one. My father is an orphan, and he was later adopted by my grandfather." Sun Ye said seriously.

Yimei was silent...the two of them were speechless.

After a while, Yimei returned to the screen, while Sun Ye and Zhou Dacheng retreated.

Nangong Yue looked at her with a smile and did not urge her. However, from the question and answer just now, Nangong Yue could still tell that Sun Ye had a fairly free and easy personality, which was a good match for Yimei.

Yimei's face finally showed a trace of shyness, and she said calmly: "Everything will be arranged by the Crown Princess."

It means, yes.

Lily was even happier than she was, her eyes were sparkling and she almost jumped up. Nangong Yue also looked relieved.

She hopes that this time, Yimei can get a good marriage and forget all the past.

Not only Yimei, but also Lily, Nangong Yue secretly thought about marrying them both off years ago. Fortunately, Yimei said that Lily was getting married, so one of the first-class maid places was vacant, and a new maid had to be promoted. If nothing else, she must at least be loyal and sensible.

Now she has many things to rely on these big maids, and those second-class maids are also taken care of by them. Nangong Yue simply asked Lily to keep an eye out for anyone who can do it recently. in her place.

Lily immediately understood what Nangong Yue meant, and she, who was always cheerful, couldn't help but blush.

Nangong Yue's life was quite comfortable, except that she would miss Xiao Yi whenever she had free time.

Sometimes she would go to the study in the outer room, open the map, and secretly wonder where Xiao Yizheng was...

Unlike the peaceful Zhennan Palace, there are always disturbances in the capital.

After the emperor came back from Yinglan Palace, he would invite the fifth prince to the imperial study every day to observe the government. Occasionally, he would give him some simple papers to review, and he would give him some pointers from time to time. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that. In addition to not having that title, the emperor has already regarded the fifth prince as a prince and is training him. The fifth prince also lived up to his expectations. He had an excellent reputation in the court and always won the emperor's praise.

Those courtiers who had already lined up in order to gain the power of Conglong also began to secretly think about whether their decision was correct.

Even the three adult princes looked content and unobtrusive. But I don't know if the emperor's attitude toward these three princes was very cold in order to reassure the fifth prince. For this reason, courtiers speculated one after another. I am afraid that only Guan Yubai in the royal capital knows that the emperor is somewhat wary of his three sons because of the "pending" poisoning of the queen mother.

The situation between North Korea and China is relatively stable, and even the peace talks with Baiyue are advancing step by step.

Since Xiao Yi was dispatched from the royal capital, Guan Yubai was solely responsible for the peace talks. Although Guan Yubai is not as strong and arrogant as Xiao Yi, and he looks like a gentle young man, but every time the negotiation ends, the Baiyue envoys who come out of it all have pale faces and dull eyes.

The emperor was very satisfied with the progress of the peace talks, and from time to time he would find various excuses to reward An Yihou Mansion.

In this way, the time gradually came to mid-October.

As usual, on the first day of every tenth day, Nangong Yue would hand over a sign to the palace to say hello.

First we went to the Changle Palace of the Queen Mother. After chatting with the Queen Mother for a while, we went to Fengluan Palace.

Xueqin led Nangong Yue to the Dongnuan Room of Fengluan Palace. As soon as she raised the curtain, she heard the Queen's angry rebuke coming from inside: "This Princess Qi really doesn't know what to say!"

What happened to Princess Qi? Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly and followed Xue Qin into Dongnuan Pavilion.

The queen sat on the rosewood Arhat bed and said with a sullen look on her face: "Arrange a roommate for Brother Jun!? I don't know how she came up with it!"

The more the queen thought about it, the angrier she became. Normally, Princess Qi wished that Han Huaijun, the eldest son of the concubine, did not exist, but seeing that the wedding was coming, she went to the palace yesterday to tell her that she would arrange two wives for Han Huaijun. So that I can serve the eldest young master and the eldest mistress in the future.

The queen felt sick at that time and wanted to have someone kick her out immediately, but her aunt arranged for her concubine to have a marriage with her, and she couldn't care less even if she was the queen. Fortunately, the emperor later told her that Han Huaijun came specially to invite the emperor to come forward, which completely dispelled Princess Qi's ridiculous idea.

The queen was glad that Han Huaijun was a good boy. Today, when Jiang Yixi came to say hello, the queen specifically told her, thinking that she could cherish this marriage more. However, the queen still couldn't hide her displeasure when she mentioned the unknown Princess Qi.

Jiang Yixi naturally believed in Han Huaijun. She sat on the armchair at the bottom, pursed her lips and smiled softly and said softly: "Aunt, don't be so angry."

While in Changle Palace, Nangong Yue heard the Queen Mother mention that Jiang Yixi had also entered the palace, so she was not surprised to see her now.

Nangong Yue interjected without hesitation: "With the Queen and Brother Han protecting me, Sister Xi will definitely not be able to suffer." As she said this, she winked at Jiang Yixi, and her teasing look made Jiang Yixi couldn't help but His face turned red.

Nangong Yue saluted the queen.

After the queen gave her a seat, Nangong Yue sat down next to Jiang Yixi.

The queen took a sip of tea, took a breath and sighed: "Hey, it means Brother Jun has good character, otherwise..." She shook her head and looked at Jiang Yixi with regret...the direct descendant of the Duke of Enguo's mansion. The eldest daughter was promised to a concubine, but in the end it was Jiang Yixi who felt wronged. Fortunately, Brother Jun is a good boy. It's a pity that Prince Qi's Mansion is too chaotic, and Sister Xi will inevitably suffer some injustice after marrying there.

It’s not easy to be a concubine’s daughter-in-law, let alone such a legitimate mother.

Jiang Yixi naturally understood the Queen's love for her, straightened her back, looked at the Queen for a moment and said: "Aunt, don't worry, I will definitely live my life well..." I will not let you down. A caring heart.

Jiang Yixi has long understood that after marrying, she will inevitably face Princess Qi’s daily difficulties and sarcastic remarks, so what does that mean? Ever since the rumors about her heir's difficulties spread, she has seen all kinds of sarcastic words and all kinds of mocking looks. It can be said that she has been tempered for a long time.

As long as she and Han Huaijun are of the same mind, Princess Qi can only get some verbal advantages. As long as she decides on etiquette, as the eldest daughter of the benefactor's palace, Princess Qi still dares to do something to her?

The queen looked at Jiang Yixi with a slight smile in her eyes. Her niece really paid off the teachings of her mother, Lady Ben Guogong!

At this time, the little palace maid respectfully reported: "The Queen, the third prince's concubine is here!"

"Xuan." The queen didn't seem surprised, showing a half-smiling expression.

But Nangong Yue and Jiang Yixi were a little surprised. Logically speaking, the third prince had already opened a mansion outside the palace. Except for the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month and New Year holidays, if there was nothing important, the third prince's concubine There is no need to enter the palace to pay respects to the queen, so why is Cui Yanyan here today?

Nangong Yue and Jiang Yixi exchanged glances with great interest.

After a while, Cui Yanyan entered the palace under the guidance of the palace maid, her eyes quickly passed over Nangong Yue and Jiang Yixi, and then she looked at them intently.

"My daughter-in-law wishes to express my regards to the queen." Cui Yanyan bowed respectfully to salute the queen, and said with joy, "My daughter-in-law has something very happy to report to the queen!"

A happy event? What great things can happen to the Third Prince's Mansion? Nangong Yue was thoughtful, could it be said...

After giving Cui Yanyan a seat, the queen said: "Third prince and concubine, if you have any good news, please tell your mother."

A strange color flashed in Cui Yanyan's eyes, and she quickly covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Mother, concubine Bai Yi has been feeling unwell in recent days. My daughter-in-law asked the imperial doctor to come over early in the morning to check the pulse of sister Bai Yi. The imperial doctor said she was pregnant. Pulse."

That's true. Nangong Yue's eyes flashed, this was a coincidence.

The queen already knew this "good news" from Aunt Gao, but she acted as if she had heard the good news for the first time, and said with great joy: "This is the eldest grandson of the emperor and me! This good news is so important Hurry up and send someone to tell the emperor." She winked, and a little chamberlain hurriedly reported the news.

The queen asked carefully about the symptoms and month of the dress, and then rewarded her with some valuable herbal supplements and silk cloth, and told Cui Yanyan to take good care of the royal bloodline.

Cui Yanyan answered everything in a clear and logical manner, and thanked her for her kindness. Her words and deeds were impeccable.

After conversing with the queen, Cui Yanyan took the initiative to say goodbye, aware of current affairs, and went to Zhang Concubine to report the good news, and then left the palace in a Zhulun chariot.

Cui Yanyan's sudden pregnancy was an unexpected surprise.

On the third day after returning to the capital, they hurriedly left the palace and left the mansion. In order to show her virtuousness, Cui Yanyan specially gave the best courtyard in the inner courtyard to Bai Muxiao, which made Han Lingfu very satisfied. Han Lingfu and Bai Muxiao also reconciled soon afterwards. Since then, they have been fighting each other, and Han Lingfu has never been to the room where the clothes are displayed... For a while, Cui Yanyan almost thought that Did my plan of sharing clothes and pampering fail?

I didn’t expect——

Zhang Yi turned out to be pregnant at this time!

Cui Yanyan can be sure that after Zhang Yi passed the marriage, she did not consummate the relationship with the third prince, but Zhang Yi did... Just now she sent someone to the study to summon the messenger, and the third prince did not raise any objections. Many questions in Cui Yanyan’s mind have answers:

I am afraid that these two people are already having troubles before they put on their clothes and pass through the door!

No wonder the emperor issued an order so hastily to let the clothes pass...

Thinking about it, the corners of Cui Yanyan's lips curled up slightly. Since Han Lingfu could have a relationship with Baiyi Chunxiao, it meant that Mu Xiao was just like that in his heart, so the one who had the last laugh must be himself, the third prince's concubine.

As for Wei Yi, Cui Yanyan doesn't take it seriously. Although Wei Yi is a delicate and beautiful flower, she is from Baiyue, and the children she gives birth to are nothing even if they are emperors and grandsons. It is impossible for Wang Jue to continue Han Lingfu, and it is even more impossible for him to be promoted as the head wife in his place!

And if Bai Yi wants to live a stable life in the third prince's house, he must rely on himself to compete with Bai Muxiao for favor!

Just for this reason, Cui Yanyan felt that she had to take good care of Chengyi and let her give birth to a child, so that she could use it to disgust Bai Muxiao.

While thinking, the speed of the Zhu Lun Chai slowed down, and the Third Prince's Mansion arrived.

After Cui Yanyan returned to her Fuquyuan to bathe and change clothes, the sky was already dim, and it was time to adjust to morning and dusk.

The maid led Bai Muxiao and Zhang Yi over to greet Cui Yanyan.

Cui Yanyan's eyes paused on the belly of the clothes with a smile, and then looked at the expressionless Bai Muxiao, a glint of pride flashed in her eyes.

No matter how good the relationship between Bai Muxiao and Han Lingfu is, what's the use, who makes her feel unhappy!

"Greetings to my sister!"

After the clothes were finished, Cui Yanyan motioned to the maid to help her up and said affectionately: "Sister Baiyi, you are pregnant, so you don't need to be so polite."

After Chen Yi thanked him respectfully, Cui Yanyan said with a smile: "Today I have entered the palace to inform my father, the queen and my concubines about the good news. My father and queen were very happy and rewarded Chen Yi with many things. Sister."

Cui Yanyan’s nanny Lin immediately signaled the maids to bring all the rewards from the emperor and empress into the house one by one, and the whole house was immediately filled.

"I would like to ask my sister to thank my father, the emperor and the queen for Bai Yi." Bai Yi returned to his body without much gratitude, and was helped up by the maid again.

Cui Yanyan quickly glanced at Bai Muxiao, whose face was as heavy as water, and felt happy in her heart. She said warmly: "Sister Baiyi, you are a twin now, and you have His Highness's eldest son in your belly. Be sure to Take care of yourself, you don’t have to come over to say hello in the future, just rest and take care of your baby.”

The dress maker said righteously: "Thank you sister for your caring heart, but the rules cannot be broken. How can you be proud of the dress dresser?" As she spoke, she caressed her flat belly shyly, looking at Lu looked forward to it, "Whether it's a son or a daughter, it's still His Highness's bloodline...Sister, Zhang Yi is thinking that when this child is born, he will send it to my sister to raise it. I wonder what your sister wants?"

"Sister Zhangyi, have you thought clearly?" A hint of surprise flashed in Cui Yanyan's eyes, and she deliberately reminded, "According to the rules, although concubines are not qualified to educate children, sister Zhangyi, after all, you are a high-class prince. As a concubine, you can raise your children by yourself as usual."

Bai Yi smiled slightly and complimented meekly: "My sister is His Highness's concubine and the mother of this child. It is this child's blessing to be raised by my sister!"

Cui Yanyan curled her lips and smiled with satisfaction.

What mother is willing to give her child to someone else? Zhang Yi’s gesture is naturally a sign of loyalty to herself!

No matter whether the child is a boy or a girl, for the third prince, it is always his first child. Once this child is raised in his own yard, the third prince will definitely come to his place often even for the sake of this child. As time goes by, she won't be afraid of not being able to warm his heart.

And with this child in my hands, I won’t dare to have any dissent in the future.

This dresser is indeed very discerning! Doesn't look like someone...

Cui Yanyan glanced at Bai Muxiao coolly, but Bai Muxiao was as silent as a statue from beginning to end. Cui Yanyan said a few words to Bai Yi, then felt extremely bored and sent them back casually.

Bai Muxiao returned to her Xinghui Courtyard in silence all the way. After entering the house, she suddenly stopped and remained motionless. The mask she had been wearing on her face shattered in an instant, and she unconsciously grabbed it with her right hand. Chest fabric.

She thought she was mentally prepared. She told herself that she could not let outsiders see her jokes...but her heart really hurt! it hurts!

How did she and Han Lingfu get to where they are today? !

"Girl," Bihen looked at Bai Muxiao worriedly, "Actually, Your Highness..."

"Stop talking!" Bai Muxiao interrupted Bihen sharply. Apart from speaking out for Han Lingfu, what else could Bihen say... She was tired of hearing these words! She had violated her own principles, forgiven his betrayal, and given in step by step, but what did she get in exchange?

It is an even bigger betrayal!

At this time, Bi Luo suddenly ran in panting and said out of breath: "Girl, Your Highness is here!" After a pause, she explained as if she thought of something, "Your Highness is back at home. , came directly to our Xinghui Courtyard!" His Highness did not go to the third prince's concubine, nor did he go to the concubine who was wearing clothes. Obviously, the people his Highness cares about the most are their girls!

Bihen also looked happy and wanted to persuade Bai Muxiao again, but was afraid of backfiring her.

During hesitation, Bihen spotted Han Lingfu strolling into the courtyard out of the corner of his eye, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "See you, Your Highness." Bi Luo did the same, but Bai Muxiao remained motionless, with his back to Han Lingfu.

Bi Hen and Bi Luo looked at each other and exited the room.

The room was silent. Han Lingfu looked at Bai Muxiao's back with confusion. She was slender, frail, but strong. She was obviously so close to him, so close that he could reach out and touch him, but she seemed to be very far away, as if thousands of miles apart.

"Xiao'er..."

I don’t know how long it took before Han Lingfu uttered these two words.

Bai Muxiao slowly turned around, her misty black eyes so clear and bright, weeping and complaining, resentful and sad.

The look in her eyes made Han Lingfu's heart hurt, and he took a step closer to her, "Xiao'er, listen to me..."

"What else is there to say!" The moisture in Bai Muxiao's eyes became thicker.

He said that he was framed by Xiao Yi, so he had a relationship with Zhang Yi Chunxiao. She understood his difficulties, sympathized with his inability to control himself, and chose to forgive him, but now?

Zhang Yi is pregnant!

Once this child is born, she will be reminded day and night that he betrayed her! He let another woman have his flesh and blood!

This ink spot will remain on their love as white as paper forever, and it cannot be washed away!

"Xiao'er..." Han Lingfu only felt that Bai Muxiao's pain seemed to be transmitted to him. He did not expect that just one day, just one time, Bai Yi would be pregnant...

It was at this time that Xiaoer finally forgave him, and they seemed to be back to the sweetness they once had...

This child came at the wrong time!

For a moment, countless emotions flashed through Han Lingfu's eyes. Finally, he sighed and said with determination: "Xiao'er, I will ask someone to send a bowl of soup to Zhang Yi..." Anyway, this child is half With Baiyue blood, it is difficult for him to achieve great things, so why should he make Xiaoer unhappy because of this child...

Is he serious? Bai Muxiao raised her eyes and looked at Han Lingfu in disbelief, almost blurting out her answer, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back.

She must not say this...

If she really said it, how would he view her in the future? Do you think she is a woman with evil thoughts?

Bai Muxiao's eyes flashed, and he said slowly: "Your Highness, although I am angry, sad, and even sadder, that child is always a little life, and he still has half of His Highness's blood. I How could I bear to watch him die young..."

"Xiao'er!" Han Lingfu looked at Bai Muxiao with emotion, his eyes were as tender as water, and his heart was filled with excitement.

In Xiao'er's heart, he is indeed the most important! Xiao'er has always had her own principles, but for him, Xiao'er was willing to give in again and again.

Han Lingfu said with relief: "Xiao'er, don't worry, this child will never affect us. ... In the future, we will have our two children! Everything I have in the future will be inherited by our two children. ."

When it comes to feeling emotional, Han Lingfu tenderly takes Bai Muxiao into his arms, but he doesn't see the gloomy look in Bai Muxiao's eyes buried in his chest.

She didn't expect Han Lingfu to give up so easily without even persisting. Sure enough, for him, children are indeed different!

If he really cares about her, shouldn't he think about her?

This child is a stain between them!

He kept saying that he loved her, and he kept saying that she was the only one in his heart. In fact, his heart was too big, and there were too many things occupying his mind...and now there was one more thing.

She will never believe his sweet words again.

The only thing she can rely on is herself... and her rights!
