Pampering the outside room alone? I entered the East Palace to pass on the sick and weak prince

Chapter 249 Relief

"Concubine Rong..."

Nie Yulan was stunned for a moment, and then she seemed to think of something and took over the shoes she had just embroidered.

"This...Crown Princess, can you help me bring it to Mingyue?"

"Why doesn't Empress Lan Bin send it there herself?"

"After all, Mingyue has been raised at Rong Bin's knees. If I keep running over there and make Mingyue miss her, it will affect her relationship with Rong Bin."

Nie Yulan looked pleading: "Princess... just say you gave it to Mingyue."

Shen Ruoxi would not refuse this small favor.

He gestured and asked Tao Ye beside him to take it.

Then he walked towards Wei Zhenzhen's palace.

Before leaving, she glanced at Nie Yulan calmly.

Her complexion was very poor, her energy and blood were severely deficient, and she no longer had any vomiting reaction. She must have had a miscarriage.

I heard that she left the palace for a while, so she should have dealt with it at that time.

However, she was not interested in knowing how it was hidden from the truth.

As soon as Shen Ruoxi arrived at Wei Zhenzhen's courtyard, she smelled a sweet smell that aroused people's appetite.

A burst of cheerful laughter followed.

Murong Mingyue ran around the courtyard holding a rattle, followed by an older palace maid with a worried expression.

"Princess Mingyue, please slow down and don't fall."

Wei Zhenzhen sat at the door of the dormitory, staring intently at Murong Mingyue in the courtyard, with a tenderness in her eyes.

Compared to Nie Yulan's place, which was lifeless, this place was quite lively.

Murong Mingyue raised her eyes and saw Shen Ruoxi.

"Princess!"

She trotted over and reached out to grab her finger.

"Princess, Mingyue hasn't seen you for a long time!"

"Princess Mingyue seems to have grown taller."

Shen Ruoxi looked at the little dumpling under her hand, her eyes a little warm.

After a few days, Murong Mingyue was not only taller, but also rounder. The originally soft and waxy little face had obviously gained a lot of flesh, like a little white bun.

What's even more rare is that his temperament is much more cheerful than before.

When I was with Nie Yulan before, I always felt a little timid and didn't dare to speak.

Wei Zhenzhen's voice came from afar.

"Since the Crown Princess is here, come over quickly."

Shen Ruoxi led Murong Mingyue over and saw that she ran to Wei Zhenzhen naturally and sat in her arms.

"Princess, these are the sugar cakes and pastries made by my mother for you. You can try them."

Murong Mingyue stretched out her little hand and pushed the cake in front of her towards Shen Ruoxi.

Shen Ruoxi looked at these exquisite pastries, picked them up and tasted them, then raised her head in surprise.

"It's delicious. The taste can be compared with the royal chef in the palace."

"The Crown Princess is overly praised."

Wei Zhenzhen's expression was calm, but there was some happiness that could not be concealed in her eyebrows.

Murong Mingyue raised her head, with a hint of pride on her chubby little face: "My mother-in-law's craftsmanship is excellent, and Mingyue likes the pastries she makes the most."

"Then I'll make you a bunny-shaped sticky bean cake tonight."

"Okay, I also want one that looks like a deer."

"It's all right."

Wei Zhenzhen couldn't help laughing and put her arms around Murong Mingyue, her expression showing great joy and relief.

"Mingyue, go and play on the swing in the yard with He Ye. Mother has something to tell the Crown Princess."

"it is good."

Murong Mingyue nodded obediently, turned around and left with He Ye.

Wei Zhenzhen turned and looked at Shen Ruoxi.

"Are the tiger-head boots in the princess's hands for Mingyue?"

"Ah."

Shen Ruoxi took out the boots, and before she spoke, she heard Wei Zhenzhen say: "Did Lan Bin ask you to bring them here?"

"how do you know?"

"She has been sitting silently in the courtyard these past few days, concentrating on embroidering some children's things. I'm not blind."

Wei Zhenzhen snorted coldly: "After her recent trip out of the palace, it was as if someone had taken away her vitality. She has become weaker and weaker when she came back. Fortunately, the emperor came less often, otherwise she would have suspected that I treated her harshly."

Shen Ruoxi said: "These shoes are also Lan Bin's heartfelt wish. She didn't send them over herself because she was afraid that you would be unhappy."

"I didn't say I wouldn't accept it. I'm not so cautious."

Wei Zhenzhen took the shoes over, put them in her hands and looked at them carefully, then narrowed her eyes and said, "It turns out that in addition to dancing, Lan Bin is also good at embroidery."

Shen Ruoxi said: "You too, your cooking skills impress me with admiration."

"When I was not out of the palace, I liked to do this. My parents and elder brother were very fond of my cooking skills. Later, when I entered the palace, I never had the chance to do it again."

Thinking that no one in the Wei family was left, Wei Zhenzhen tightened her fingers, then suppressed the emotion in her eyes and showed a somewhat lonely smile.

"Forget it, why are you talking about so many useless things?"

Picking up the tea from the table, she sipped it absentmindedly, then turned her eyes slightly and met Shen Ruoxi's beautiful eyes.

She suddenly said: "Actually, I regret it. I did something wrong in that matter..."

Shen Ruoxi's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, a little surprised.

Since Wei Zhenzhen mentioned this matter herself, it means that the knot in her heart has been relieved.

That's fine.

"It's great that Concubine Rong has a bright moon now."

"Yes, I have a bright moon now."

Wei Zhenzhen's eyes lit up again, and then she seemed to have thought of something. She said slowly: "Excuse me, Crown Princess. When you leave later, tell Lan Bin that if she wants to see the bright moon, she can come over and have a look." Don't hide in the corner and peek every day, it's like being a thief."

Shen Ruoxi smiled: "Okay."

After sitting in Yaoguang Hall for a long time, Shen Ruoxi stood up and left.

When leaving, Murong Mingyue bit a sugar cookie and stared at Shen Ruoxi's flat belly, and suddenly said: "Does the Crown Princess have a baby?"

Shen Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing.

"Not yet, why did Princess Mingyue say this?"

"The Crown Princess and His Highness have such a good relationship, how come they don't have a baby?" Murong Mingyue looked up at her little face with a serious expression, "If the Crown Princess gives birth to a baby, it will definitely be as beautiful as you."

After a pause, she said: "It's okay to look like the prince. The prince is also very good-looking."

"Mingyue, don't talk nonsense."

Wei Zhenzhen's voice was slightly harsh.

Although the rumor that the prince is inhumane has now been broken, almost everyone still acquiesces that he will not have any heirs.

It's a bit inappropriate to say this.

"Tong Yan Wu Ji, Princess, don't take it to heart."

"It doesn't matter."

Shen Ruoxi pinched Murong Mingyue's face, turned around and left slowly.

At the door, Wei Zhenzhen held Murong Mingyue in her arms, looked at Shen Ruoxi's back, and sighed slightly.

The meeting today not only lifted the grudge between her and Shen Ruoxi, but also eliminated the knot in her own heart.

Nowadays, she seems to have no hatred anymore. When she wakes up every day, the first thing in her mind is what cakes to make for Murong Mingyue today.

"Concubine, what are you thinking about?"

Murong Mingyue hugged her neck, softly pulling her back from her thoughts.

Wei Zhenzhen broke into a smile.

"I'm thinking about what I can feed you tomorrow."

The palace walls, which were several meters high, were towering and oppressive. She would be trapped inside them for the rest of her short life. Originally, she thought she would slowly wither and rot, but now, flowers bloomed in her desolate heart.

Wei Zhenzhen hugged Mingyue tightly in her arms, suddenly feeling inexplicably uneasy.

One day, this beauty will be quietly shattered by something.
