Cannon Fodder Raiders: Concubine Ai is capricious

Chapter 312 Too Ugly, My Brother
Zhu Haitang never imagined that this man had seen her from morning sickness to edema, and now she was having nightmares, yet he hadn't let go of the idea of ​​having nine children.

She suddenly felt that this man was scary.

In other words, even if she survived to give birth to eight children, she might die with the ninth.

She didn't understand Xia Houjing's obsession, and she couldn't understand it, but because of this little bit of unhappiness, her heart was suddenly swollen, stuffy and swollen.

She opened the curtain, and as soon as the cold wind blew, Xia Houjing immediately pulled her body back, and wrapped her in the cloak again, "Be careful of catching a cold."

This kind of careless concern will only aggravate the grievance in her heart now.

Zhu Haitang pushed the person away, took a deep breath and said patiently: "Please don't appear in front of me for the time being, Your Majesty, I want to go out for a walk by myself."

She wrapped her cloak and walked out, but the people behind her did not follow. It was clearly a warm afternoon wind, but Zhu Haitang felt that the temperature of the wind had gradually frozen her emotions. She walked numbly for a while, feeling a kind of It means that the jar is broken, she hopes that she can die during this childbirth, so that Xia Houjing will regret it for the rest of her life.

But thinking of that ending, she was very unwilling, because in this case, she felt that she might be the one who regretted it.And if she dies like this, she will be trapped in this two-dimensional world forever, lonely and helpless, it must be very difficult.

After walking in a daze for a while, she suddenly noticed that the palace people were coming and going, walking in a hurry, and seemed to be much busier than usual: "What's going on in the palace recently?"

Caicai, who followed along the way, hurried forward to answer, "The fifth day of the next month will be His Majesty's birthday. At that time, ancestors will be worshiped and worshiped, and all officials will be honored. Your Majesty will use this auspicious day to pray for the common people. Altars will also be set up in various provinces to pray for your Majesty's longevity." .”

Such a big ostentation is also thanks to Xia Houjing being the chosen one. According to some feudal superstitions, some people's fate is not big enough, and if they can't hold it, they will lose their lifespan instead.

Zhu Haitang said: "I haven't heard him say that."

Caicai was taken aback for a moment, "My lady must have been unwell recently and forgot about it. Everyone should know about such a big event."

Yes, everyone knew it, but she never cared about it. Zhu Haitang suddenly felt that she was a little incompetent. Even as a wife, she never asked about such important days, and never cared about it... Zhu Haitang Haitang turned her face to look at the pavilion in the distance behind her, the man was still standing there, because she was too far away, she couldn't see Xia Houjing's expression clearly, she only knew that he was probably looking at her.

Zhu Haitang turned away and continued to walk forward, but she still curled her lips and said: "Hmph, I can't sleep all night because of the pain, but he is very proud of himself."

Caicai hesitated for a moment, and said cautiously: "I don't know if I should say something or not."

"Speak up if you want to talk, forget it if you don't like to talk, and I won't punish you, so what are you trying to do?"

Caicai also knew that Empress Zhu was different from other concubines, and also knew that she would never blame others easily. No matter how angry she was, the Empress would only scold her a few words at most, so she said: "Empress, you have had a hard time giving birth, your Majesty, although you talk I won’t tell you, but the slaves can all see that he is worried about you in his heart, otherwise he wouldn’t respond to your requests, right?”

"If he was really worried about me, why would he say he wanted to have nine children? Being responsive to her requests is the most basic requirement for a husband to have a pregnant wife."

"Your Majesty is the son of a real dragon, sitting in the world, I naturally hope that there will be many dragon sons... Besides, your majesty only said that you will give birth. On the other hand, don't you want to be a couple with the empress forever? If His Majesty really just wanted more dragon sons, how could he abandon so many concubines and just want to have children with you? Isn't it?"

Zhu Haitang looked at her sideways: "You are loyal to him."

She almost forgot that Caicai was originally sent by Xia Houjing.

Cai Cai lowered her head, "Did the maid say something wrong?"

Zhu Haitang did not speak again.

In fact, it’s not that he didn’t understand what Caicai said. Xia Houjing said that she would have nine sons with her. In a sense, she did recognize her. But in her view, she is special because she is not someone the other party hates. , if one day he finds his own white moonlight, he can kick himself at any time.

Sometimes she feels that Xia Houjing also loves herself. After all, she is still alive and well after all the misdemeanors, and she is still obedient to herself, and even willing to make changes for herself. Jing didn't care about her life at all, just like he knew that he didn't want to live and was afraid of living, but he was still stubborn, even at this moment.

This made her feel that all his concessions were just because she could bear him a child, that's all...
Zhu Dafu seldom came recently. It seemed that something happened to the company, and every time he came, he was a little depressed and his face was heavy.However, Xia Houjing was worried that Zhu Haitang's overthinking would affect her production, so she would often order someone to summon her.

Zhu Haitang's listless expression finally got better after seeing Zhu Dafu, she hugged her brother for a while, coaxed him to eat more, and suddenly had a whim, "Brother, I want to eat cake. "

Zhu Dafu didn't ask why he suddenly wanted to eat it: "Then I'll go back and try to make it. I'm afraid there are not enough ingredients here, and the taste may be a little different."

Zhu Haitang regained her spirits immediately and said, "Brother, if you make it, can you give me the recipe?"

Zhu Dafu saw her thoughts at a glance: "Why, do you want to make it yourself for your Majesty?"

Zhu Haitang nodded: "He hasn't eaten a birthday cake yet."

"Don't think about what you have recently. Look at you now, can you cook yourself?"

"Then I'll greet the Imperial Dining Room and talk to the head office."

Zhu Dafu thought that she could find something to do to divert her attention, so he said, "I will try it and let your Majesty try our fairy food."

Zhu Haitang squinted her eyes and smiled, she didn't mention her fear to her brother, and Zhu Dafu pretended not to know, and tried to talk to her about some light topics as much as possible, which could somewhat adjust her sister's mood.

When she was leaving, she took out another thin notebook. Zhu Haitang opened it and saw that there were some uncolored graffiti with exaggerated lines and no substance. She asked suspiciously, "Brother, did you draw it yourself?"

Zhu Dafu nodded: "When I came here the night before yesterday, I drew it all night, you can use it to color and play, and decompress."

Zhu Haitang looked at her brother's unnatural little expression, and couldn't laugh or cry, "But this is too ugly. My brother is not as good-looking as my drawing."

"There are so many things." Zhu Dafu's face sank, "You just treat it as homework, paint it well, and brother will come to check it in a few days."
