female concubine

——Sweet Water Lane-Princess Yiguo’s House——

The servant took the candied haws wrapped in paper and walked into the backyard, "Princess, the candied haws are back."

Princess Yiguo raised her neck and picked out a bunch of them, "Pick them up quickly, put them in a food box, and bring them into the palace for my father and mother to taste."

"Yes."

A thirteen or fourteen-year-old should only enter the courtyard through the arch, "Princess, the former attendant censor asks to see you."

"Who is the former censor?"

To be in place, he should take a step closer and cross his hands and replied, "Jiang Luochuan, the grandson of Jiang Mugong."

Princess Yiguo bit off a hawthorn, "What is he doing here? Hasn't he been beaten enough to make Dad angry? Go and send me away, I don't want to see him."

"He said he was..." The little servant raised hesitant eyes, "He came to tell the princess a secret that others dare not tell."

Princess Yiguo was biting a hawthorn without moving, and immediately took it out of her mouth, "Secret?"

"Yes, he said he only wanted a quarter of an hour."

Princess Yiguo put down the hawthorn, "Yanchuan, Xiaoyun, dress me up, I want to meet guests." Then she ordered to the throne, "Let him wait in the middle hall."

"Yes."

A quarter of an hour later, the hot tea on the table turned into warm tea, and Jiang Luochuan walked back and forth in front of the grand master's chair with his hands behind his back.

"It's a quarter of an hour, why doesn't Jiang Yushi leave?" Princess Yiguo stepped into the nave with her attendants, without any intention of getting close.

Jiang Luochuan quickly turned around and cupped his hands, "The quarter of an hour that the official said was the quarter of an hour for talking with the princess."

"I have nothing to say with you. I wouldn't have met you if you hadn't been my grandma's nephew." Princess Yiguo went to the main seat and sat down.

"The lower official has something to say." Jiang Luochuan stepped forward and looked around Princess Yiguo, "I want to talk to the princess alone."

"Yanchuan and Xiaoyun are my closest people..."

"The one who can speak is only a princess," Jiang Luochuan bowed again, holding his sleeves, "One person."

Princess Yiguo frowned, "You all go down."

"But the princess..."

"Go down."

"Yes."

Princess Yiguo looked at Jiang Luochuan and immediately sat upright and turned her head away, "I have to go to Da Nei to say hello later, you'd better make a long story short."

Seeing that everyone was leaving, Jiang Luochuan walked forward with his sleeves in hand, "What the next official will say may scare the princess."

"Oh, I said, why are you talking so nonsense and pretending to be mysterious!" Princess Yiguo looked impatient, as if she felt that it would be a nuisance to look at this person even more.

Jiang Luochuan raised his head, "Actually, the princess is not

The official's own. "

After hearing this, Princess Yiguo was stunned for a while, then she frowned deeply and vetoed: "Presumptuous! What are you, you dare to question me and my parents?"

Jiang Luochuan narrowed his eyes, "Everyone in the world knows about it, but the princess doesn't. It's because the government has issued a decree that no one is allowed to discuss it."

"How is it possible, Daddy treats me so well and loves me so much, you don't want to sow discord here!" Yiguo Gongzhuang refused again.

"If the princess doesn't believe it, you can ask the wet nurse. It is well known that the government loves the princess, but that's only because the government has only sons and no daughters. It was rumored in the palace that the government wanted to appoint a queen mother, but in the end the government still made a king. The reason for the crown prince is because..." Jiang Luochuan stared at the princess whose face changed drastically, "The princess is not born to the official family, the princess can think about it carefully, before the princesses of the country were married, they lived with their mothers, why did the official family rush to build the princess for the princess? Is it because the government really dotes on the princess? If it is really doting, will he have the heart to send his daughter away? If the princess still doesn't believe it, you can ask the government in person." Jiang Luochuan watched Princess Yiguo gradually become suspicious and flustered. She cupped her hands again and said, "This matter was originally rumored in Da Nei, and then the government issued an edict not to allow people to discuss it, so the rumors stopped. Now that the princess has grown up, more than ten years have passed, and the people in Da Nei have changed. Otherwise, not many people would know about it.”

Princess Yiguo clenched her hands, "How is it possible, how could I not be Daddy's daughter..."

"The lower official told the princess everything he knew, and said everything that should be said. The princess said just now that she would go to the palace to say hello, so the lower official said goodbye."

Princess Yiguo raised her head and looked at the people who retreated, "If what you said is false, I will definitely bring someone to your house to beat you up. I don't have an uncle like you."

Jiang Luochuan raised his head and turned his face coldly, "His Royal Highness has long ceased to be Jiang, and I dare not be the uncle of the Princess of the Kingdom."

After an ordinary carriage left the princess house, another carriage pulled by four black horses drove out from the backyard of the servant.

Princess Yiguo drove to Da Nei, and learned that the emperor broke in behind the Chui Gong Palace with a food box despite the guards' obstruction.

The emperor read the memorial in the side hall and didn't meet the ministers, so he didn't blame her for breaking into the inner court, "Why did you come here suddenly, didn't someone call you to enter the palace for dinner at night, it's still early."

"My daughter came across a delicious dim sum while watching a play in the tile a while ago, but that Weng Weng is not from Tokyo. My daughter found it again after searching for a long time and bought one.

I want to give my dad a taste. "

"Ruhua still thinks about daddy, let me see what delicious food can make even the most favored little princess of the kingdom never forget it."

Princess Yiguo lifted the food box and opened the lid, "Look, it's called candied haws."

The emperor picked up a bunch of candied haws, "Aren't there hawthorns inside?"

"But it's more delicious than hawthorn, and it's not greasy at all. Isn't it good for Her Royal Highness to eat it recently? Every time my daughter eats this, she can eat a big bowl of rice."

The emperor looked down at the hawthorn in his hand and immediately took his daughter to his side, "Does Ruhua know that hawthorn promotes blood circulation and removes blood stasis, which is not good for the fetus."

"Ah... I almost planned to send some to the East Palace, but fortunately I came to Daddy first."

The emperor raised his hand and touched the back of Princess Yiguo's head. The little princess sat beside the emperor and stretched out her hand to pull the leather belt around her waist, feeling that the jade belt at the back was a bit cold.

"Daddy."

"Huh?" The emperor took a bite of the hawthorn, thinking it would be very sour, "Sure enough, no matter how unpalatable it is, it can become a treasure in the hands of a craftsman."

Princess Yiguo raised her head, "Dad, do you still remember what you promised Ruhua?"

The emperor turned his head, "You mean the household department was short of money last time?"

Princess Yiguo nodded, "My daughter has thought of what she wants."

"Oh? My little girl has decided what she wants?"

"Daughter knows that Daddy made my elder brother the crown prince..." Princess Yiguo looked at the emperor hesitantly, "But they said that elder brother is too benevolent, so Daddy doesn't like it, daughter," she raised her eyes and stared at the emperor without moving. "To be a princess."

The emperor immediately turned cold when he heard Princess Yiguo's words, threw the candied haws back into the food box and said in displeasure, "Who told you this?"

"Is Daddy angry?"

The emperor frowned, "Ruhua, tell Dad, who told you?"

"Daddy is unwilling to agree to Ruhua's request?"

The emperor stood up and put his hands behind his back, "The crown prince is the foundation of the country, and abolishing the crown prince will shake the foundation of the country. Dad can promise you anything, but this is the only thing he can't do."

"Is it because Ruhua is not father's own, because Ruhua is not father's flesh and blood, that father built a princess house for Ruhua and let Ruhua move out of the palace..."

The emperor turned around, "Who told you that?"

"Daddy's appearance seems to be real." Princess Yiguo raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes.

The emperor didn't get angry as expected, but sat down very distressed, "Listen to Dad's explanation."

"It's because Ruhua expects too much, it's because Ruhua is too self-righteous, and it's because Ruhua overestimates

Lost his position in daddy's heart. "

The emperor raised his trembling hand and gently wiped away the tears welling up from the corners of his daughter's eyes, "Can you listen to what Daddy said?"

Princess Yiguo kept wiping her tears, as if she couldn't accept it, "I don't want to hear, why daddy gave Ruhua hope, and why did he tear it up with his own hands."

"Do you really want to be emperor?" The emperor sat close and caressed Princess Yiguo's face, "You are Daddy's daughter, you are just Daddy's daughter, how could Daddy not understand you, this palace city is trapping Daddy At the same time, too many people have been trapped, and Daddy doesn't want you to shoulder this thing that doesn't belong to you."

Princess Yiguo threw herself into her arms tremblingly after hearing the emperor's words, "My daughter doesn't want to be an emperor, but I'm afraid that Daddy will suddenly not want my daughter one day, and that Daddy will abandon her."

"Silly child," the emperor raised his hand to comfort Princess Yiguo gently, "You will always be the most beloved little princess of both father and mother. From the first moment I brought you back, father has been blaming himself, Daddy trapped your mother here, how can he trap you now, no matter how selfish he is, Daddy built a mansion for you not to drive you away, but to trap you in this cage for a lifetime, Daddy said But you will never be banned from entering the palace, where father and mother are, will always be Ruhua's home, and your future husband will be chosen by yourself, and father will not interfere indiscriminately."

Princess Yiguo rubbed against the emperor's shoulder and cried more and more, "Ruhua is wrong, Ruhua shouldn't have come to the Chuigong Hall to talk to daddy like that."

The emperor gently comforted his daughter, "From the moment you grew up, I was always worried that they would leak the news, and I was also worried that you would be separated from Daddy because of this. Daddy promised you that he would never leave and abandon Ruhua."

I don't know how long they coaxed until the emperor's hoarse voice dried up, and Princess Yiguo fell asleep in the emperor's arms. The night fell very early in the deep winter, and the sky had already dimmed a lot before the first watch. .

The emperor carried Princess Yiguo in his arms, and several courtiers slowed down their movements one after another when they saw this, and tiptoely ordered the servants who raised their shoulders.

While riding the Jianyu, the emperor ordered someone to take his cloak and put it on the princess of Yiguo. After sending it back to Kunning Hall, the prince happened to come to Dingsheng. After less than a quarter of an hour, he returned to the Chuigong Hall to deal with the delayed political affairs. .

After eating, Xiao Youqing went back to the dormitory where Princess Yiguo lived, wrung out the handkerchief and wiped away the tears and make-up from the corners of her eyes.

"Daddy...Daddy..." Princess Yiguo woke up from her sleep, and when she opened her eyes, she saw

It's mother, "Ma'am?"

Xiao Youqing put down the veil and got up and sat on the edge of Princess Yiguo's couch, "In the hearts of father and mother, you are our only daughter, and you can feel how much your father loves you."

Thinking of these things, Princess Yiguo's nose got sour, and she threw herself into her mother's arms, "It's Ruhua's mistake."

"You are not wrong, you are just afraid, and your father and I are hiding it from you because we are afraid that you will not think about it." Xiao Youqing patted her daughter's shoulder lightly, just like coaxing her to sleep when she was a child.

"Daddy is the best daddy in the world. Ruhua doesn't want a son-in-law or a gentleman. If she must marry, Ruhua only wants to marry someone like Daddy."

Xiao Youqing opened her loving eyes and reached out to fiddle with the broken hair beside her ear, "Your father and I only hope that you can be an ordinary girl and be happy all the time without being affected by the world, and your mother and father will always be with you to protect you." you."
