The prince dotes on his wife: a reborn peasant woman is not easy to mess with

The palace man naturally denied it.

Qi Bin breathed a sigh of relief and then realized that she had not revealed her identity at that time. She had never been to Concubine Shu's palace to pay her respects before, so the little girl didn't know her and had no way of identifying her——

Although her status is not high, she is at least the biological mother of the prince. If she does not want to go for any reason, Concubine Shu is kind and will not make it too difficult.

But now that something happened in the palace, if Concubine Shu had taken the initiative to summon everyone in the harem, and with His Majesty's orders, it would be impossible for Qi Bin to refuse as the prince's biological mother.

I heard that the little girl was also famous for being smart. It was difficult for Qi Bin to comfort herself by forgetting what the culprit looked like just after holding her in the water.

Qi Bin was restless for a moment, pacing back and forth. The movement made the Seventh Prince get up and asked anxiously: "Concubine, are you still unable to sleep..."

The moment she heard this voice, Qi Bin almost wanted to pour out all her anger.

She has done so many things without conscience, but this child is still ignorant. He doesn't even know what the mother and son will face tomorrow morning...

But even if Qi Bin wanted to lose her temper, tears would flow down uncontrollably before the words came out of her mouth.

She rushed over and hugged the seventh prince. She hugged him and kept apologizing, murmuring in a low voice: "It's my mother's fault, it's my mother's fault..."

"It's all because of my delusion that I couldn't be cruel enough to do such a thing... No, no, no, I shouldn't have done this from the beginning!"

Qi Bin cried while hugging the seventh prince, her whole thoughts confused. One moment she was talking about her mother, and the other moment she was crying and apologizing, making the seventh prince look at her.

He could hardly move in his arms, let alone the maid who was guarding him.

They couldn't hear clearly what Qi Bin was crying about, so they looked at each other and were shouted back by Qi Bin.

In the same way, Concubine Jia was furious after getting the news.

She then smashed a lot of things, because the palace was full of maids she trusted, and Concubine Jia did not hide it at all. She cursed in secret: "This damn girl... is really lucky!"

"And that concubine Hui! She's already living in the cold palace, how can she still be so free?! If I had known better, I should have given her a few more punishments and poached her hands and feet!"

Concubine Jia scolded her so viciously that her servants knelt down and trembled, afraid to say anything. She scolded this and then that, and finally said.

"Qi Concubine is really useless. She can't even handle this little thing. In the end, she let the little girl live to see His Majesty. But... if she is smart, she should prepare for her funeral now. Such a good opportunity, I can’t let it go easily..."

As she spoke, she squinted her eyes, her eyes flashing with calculation.

As soon as Concubine Jia finished speaking, the palace became extremely quiet. No one even dared to look at each other, for fear of being lynched by their master. However, out of their understanding of Concubine Jia, they all felt a moment of silence in their hearts.

She knew in her heart that Qi Bin might not survive this time. Not only would she not survive, she might even be splashed with dirty water several times.

People who have no power are so helpless in the palace. Originally, Qi Bin kept her own integrity and did not participate in any competition at all. No matter who invited her, she refused because of her weak health.

She knew very well that she was lucky enough to be pregnant with the seventh prince and give birth to the seventh prince safely. She almost didn't dare to ask for anything else.

So it's so low-key.

But she didn't know that Concubine Jia had been eyeing her for a long time. Seeing that such a little palace maid dared to refuse her was simply ungrateful.

In the absence of strength, no matter what she did, it was just to incriminate her. Qi Bin herself never realized that even if she didn't do it this time, Concubine Jia would find her next time and the next time. Chance would put the blame on her.

But who in the palace can identify her, and who dares to deal with Concubine Jia? Even Concubine Shu tries to avoid conflicts with Concubine Jia as much as possible, even though Concubine Shu is obviously more favored by the emperor.

Concubine Jia's mother's family had the confidence there. Even the emperor himself had to give Concubine Jia a blow to appease her if he wanted to punish her.

Otherwise, his disciples will write him a letter in the future, and the emperor will not tire of it.

After a night, no one slept very well. Nini hugged Zhou Xiaoyuan all night and was not even willing to sleep on the previous bed.

Zhou Xiaoyuan knew in her heart that Zhao Wu had slept there, and it was normal for Nini to be afraid, but she always thought about where Sister Wu was now at Naihe Bridge, so she couldn't help crying quietly.

Early in the morning of the next day, Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't sleep all night and got up with dark circles under her eyes. Xia Yechen was startled when he came in.

He tried to persuade Zhou Xiaoyuan to go back and rest for a while, but Zhou Xiaoyuan could not sleep at this time. She shook her head and just asked: "Why did you come so early? Did you find anything last night?"

After everyone dispersed yesterday, Xia Yechen asked Zhou Xiaoyuan to go back to rest, and he checked around with his own guards.

Zhou Xiaoyuan originally wanted to go with her, but Xia Yechen said that Nini was

Personally, I think he would be very scared, and he couldn't take the mother and daughter together to investigate.

After hearing this, Zhou Xiaoyuan finally gave up.

On the way, she even asked Nini if ​​she remembered who pushed her into the water.

Nini has a good memory, but she can only give a general idea. She mentioned that the person did not mention her name. At first, Zhou Xiaoyuan speculated that the family members of some ministers might have entered the palace.

But after thinking about it carefully, Zhou Xiaoyuan felt that there might not be such a coincidence. Princess Jialun also mentioned the remote place Nini mentioned.

She said that except for those who were really familiar with the palace, almost no one would get lost there, so she felt comfortable letting the palace maid accompany her at the beginning.

Although Zhou Xiaoyuan always felt that the last sentence meant that Princess Jia Lun was anxious to make herself clear, she actually knew in her heart that Princess Jia Lun had no need to plot against her and Nini. She couldn't pretend to love her - in fact, it was her, who was She was fascinated by Zhao Wu's death.

So she couldn't help but turn her anger on Princess Jialun. She couldn't control this, and Zhou Xiaoyuan didn't want to control it, so she just coldly shouted away Princess Jialun.

So much so that Princess Jialun no longer dared to follow Xia Yechen and appear in front of her early in the morning.

Zhou Xiaoyuan understood clearly and didn't think anything was wrong. She was just curious about why Xia Yechen came over suddenly. After asking, she found out that the emperor was very concerned about this matter and now he came to inquire about the progress.

Several people went to the main hall together, where Princess Jialun, Concubine Shu and the emperor were all there. Zhou Xiaoyuan was silent and became even more speechless as she listened to Xia Yechen's report.

As if noticing her expression, Princess Jialun hesitated for a while and took the initiative to speak, "Xiaoyuan, do you have anything to say?"

she was

At this mention, everyone's eyes glanced over, and the emperor also looked at her, with no objection on his expression, and seemed to be ready for her to speak.
