Little Wife Treasure [Rebirth]
Chapter 81
The two walked extremely slowly, the evening sun hit their bodies slightly yellow, and even the spring breeze was lingering and carefree.
Not long after returning to the mansion, Bai Guo and Xie Lin heard that something had happened in Prince Yu's mansion during the daytime. After careful questioning, they found out that it was actually in the belly of Prince Yu's side concubine who was diagnosed as pregnant the day before yesterday. The child was not kept.
"Why is it gone?"
Bai Guo was leaning on a soft bed, she was drowsy at first, but when she heard the news, she suddenly woke up sleepy, opened her eyes slightly and looked at Wang Youquan.
Wang Youquan stood beside Xie Lin, showing a helpless smile: "The servants heard that the side concubine accidentally ate something she shouldn't eat and slipped a baby, but Prince Yu has been childless in the backyard for the past two years. The concubine's baby is really important, and she has carefully explained the food, drink and clothing. The side concubine herself is very careful, but she is so careful, but it is really shocking to have a baby in just two days. Later, she only cried and said that someone in the house had harmed him, but Princess Yu only thought that he couldn't bear the loss of a child, and wanted to suppress the matter, but who knew that concubine was so hot that she wanted to hang herself. There is a commotion in the house."
Bai Guo worried: "What happened to the side concubine?"
Wang Youquan said: "The man was rescued, but he still seems to be in a coma. His Royal Highness Prince Yu just returned to the mansion, and he wanted to punish Princess Yu for this matter. However, Princess Yu usually looks gentle, gentle and kind. , but when it comes to the child's matter, he will not be patient at all."
Bai Guo recalled what happened to Princess Yu when she lost her unborn child, and couldn't help but feel heavy.
King Yu seemed to be a man without heirs. Although there were people in the backyard who were pregnant several times, they all ended up with miscarriage. No one was able to give birth safely.The heirs in Princess Yu's womb were calculated by his concubine, and the first few were either in poor health and couldn't conceive at all, or they had dystocia and hemorrhage, with one corpse and two lives. This time it was the turn of the twin concubine, obviously All aspects of the body are good, but they ate the wrong food and couldn't keep it.
It is conceivable how bad the mood of King Yu will be.
With such a bad state of mind, he couldn't vent his anger on the side concubine who failed to hang herself and was still in a coma, so he could only spread his anger on Princess Yu, punishing her for taking care of the backyard, and angering her for what happened in her house After such a big event, I just want to put it down lightly.
Bai Guo thinks about the current situation in Prince Yu's mansion like this, his heart turns back and forth, he only thinks that the royal family is a place that cannibalize people, whether it is in the palace or in the ordinary prince's mansion, the strife in the backyard never disappears for a moment.
Thinking of this, he turned his eyes to look at Xie Lin, only to find that the other party was reading with a booklet, with a calm expression on his face, as if he didn't care about Prince Yu's mansion at all.
"Your Highness?" Bai Guo's expression moved slightly, and she reached out to pull the tassels on the jade pendant on Xie Lin's waist.
Xie Lin pinched his fingers and looked down at him.
Seeing this, Wang Youquan bowed and went out with a wink.
When there were only the two of them left in the room, Xie Lin put down the notebook, caressed the side of Bai Guo's neck and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I just want to call you." Bai Guo blushed slightly.
But Xie Lin said: "Is it because you feel uncomfortable after hearing about the matter in Prince Yu's mansion?"
Bai Guo lowered her eyes and didn't speak, she just slowly dropped the fingers hooked on the jade pendant to Xie Lin's belt, but bit her lips lightly, her whole body seemed to tremble slightly because of this tentative movement .
Xie Lin smiled helplessly, and hugged Bai Guo's wrist with his palm: "Bold."
Maybe it was stimulated by the incident in Prince Yu's mansion, but Bai Guo didn't seem to hear his words, her head was hanging on her chest and blushing, but she stubbornly used her index and middle fingers to untie the strap of Xie Lin's outer robe.
"Your Highness, shall we...have a child?"
His voice trembled violently, and it was the first time he was sober to invite pets so shamelessly, his whole head became chaotic and unconscious, and as soon as he finished speaking, he just wanted to shrink himself into a shell.
Xie Lin couldn't stop laughing, picked him up and hugged him tightly, touched his smooth skin under his clothes inch by inch, and asked softly, "Why do you suddenly want a child?"
Bai Guo was surrounded tightly, trembling and not speaking.
Xie Lin sighed softly in his heart, and didn't force him, but just obeyed Bai Guo's wish and did what he wanted.
The days are short and the nights long.
The next day, Bai Guo woke up on the couch. He sat up holding the brocade quilt with a sore waist and back pain, and suddenly woke up. What the hell did he go crazy yesterday——
He actually pestered His Highness and did so many ridiculous things!
His brows and eyes were full of shame and embarrassment, waiting for the servants outside to wait for him to hear the sound and come in to wash him up, but they couldn't make Bai Guo suppress the enthusiasm on his face.
But this state only lasted until noon, when Wang Youquan hurried in and said: "Princess, it's not good, something happened in Prince Yu's residence."
Bai Guo recovered from the fugue: "Prince Yu's Mansion?"
Wang Youquan said anxiously: "Early this morning, the side concubine who had not hanged herself woke up yesterday, somehow she interrogated a personal servant who was serving beside her. It was the princess's instructions that tampered with his meal."
Bai Guo was shocked: "How could Princess Yu do such a thing?"
Wang Youquan shook his head: "There is no concrete evidence yet, but for some reason His Highness Prince Yu believed the concubine's words, and in a fright, he wanted to escort Princess Yu to the clan's mansion for interrogation on the charge of framing the emperor's heir. After she said that she would abandon Princess Yu, the family of Princess Yu's family has already rushed to Prince Yu's residence to stop Prince Yu, and now everyone is confronting each other in the residence..."
Bai Guo frowned in confusion and said, "How could this be? Princess Yu is the first wife of King Yu. Could it be that His Highness Prince Yu didn't trust her at all?"
Wang Youquan hesitated to speak: "Actually, it's not just the side concubine, some concubines in Prince Yu's mansion are also crying today to ask Prince Yu to give them justice, and they only say that the children who were lost in the past were all because of Princess Yu's envoy. There are means..."
Bai Guo moved her lips and was speechless for a moment.
Hearing the news, he felt uneasy for some reason.
Hanging her eyes and touching her belly, Bai Guo realized that she was afraid.
He was afraid that His Royal Highness's love and enthusiasm for him was only established at the beginning of their newlyweds. He was afraid that Xie Lin would bring a man or woman with an unfamiliar appearance back home one day, and tell himself with indifferent eyes that this was his sweetheart. He was even more afraid One day, I will become a housewife who only competes for favor and love.
Some inferiority complex is engraved in the bones, but it is not usually cut open in the sun.
No matter how meticulously the General's Mansion has pampered Bai Guo for half a year, the suffering of the first 18 years has already filled his bones with low self-esteem and lack of self-confidence.He didn't dare to believe wholeheartedly that a high-ranking prince like Xie Lin only had his heart on him, and he didn't even dare to think about the future, he only wanted to hide in the seemingly happy life in front of him, Everything stops and dare not move forward.
And just last night, he even revealed his selfishness in front of Xie Lin——
He didn't want to live like Princess Yu.
He wanted a child, his own child.
Even after a long time, His Royal Highness King Jing's eyes will no longer stop for him, but he can still regard the child as his future and hope.
In that case, although life is not very happy, it will not be very sad.
There is something hidden in her heart, and in the next few days, Bai Guo will obviously talk less than before. In the past, when Xie Lin returned to the mansion after busy work, Bai Guo would always chat with him about the trivial matters in the mansion during the day, but these few days The communication between the two of them on the bed was obviously more than other things. Xie Lin found that although his little wife let go a lot on the bed, but the rest of the time there was more silence with frowning.
Xie Lin wanted to appease him, but he couldn't find a breakthrough.
The days passed quickly, but the Prince Yu's mansion was full of lifelessness. The concubine who had lost her child hated Princess Yu, and he, who was leaning on King Yu, fought against Princess Yu everywhere in the mansion. Until the end of the first ten days, Princess Yu fell seriously ill. After lying in bed for half a month, the side concubine coaxed Yu Wang to give herself the right to take charge of the house's internal affairs without doing anything, and she actually emptied Yu Wang concubine.
Bai Guo couldn't bear to hear the news, but he couldn't do anything about it. Until the middle of the month, a slave from Prince Yu's mansion came to post a post, saying that a few days would be the birthday party of Princess Yu, and invited several sisters-in-law to sit in the mansion.
On the day of Princess Yu's birthday, Bai Guo prepared the birthday ceremony early, and happened to meet Princess Qin Li Xian'er in front of Prince Yu's mansion.
Li Xian'er hadn't seen Bai Guo for a long time, her originally indifferent, arrogant and bored expression changed, and there was a sincere smile in her eyes, she approached Bai Guo and took his arm, looking like a good brother and sister, curiously asked: "Three Sister-in-law, what birthday gift did you prepare for the second sister-in-law?"
"It's just a little thing." Bai Guo smiled. Seeing that Li Xian'er was a little fatter than before, and hearing something from the Immortal System next to her ear, she couldn't help being stunned, looking at her belly, subconsciously said, "Is there?"
Li Xian'er was stunned for a moment, and there was some surprise and unconcealable pride in her eyes: "My God, how did the third sister-in-law know?"
Bai Guo said: "I see that you have gained a lot of weight."
"Not at all!" Li Xian'er's face was full of anger when she was told this, and after a while, she touched her own face and said dejectedly, "Sister-in-law, is it obvious that I'm fat?"
Bai Guo said: "It was too thin before, but now the face is round and just right."
Only then did Li Xian'er feel relieved, and said to Bai Guo in a low voice: "I just found out that it's only a few days ago, the month is still young, I'm afraid to say it and cause trouble, even the men at home didn't tell him."
Bai Guo nodded, thinking about the matter in Prince Yu's mansion, carefully told her: "The fetal image is not stable in the first three months, so you should be more careful."
Li Xian'er pursed her lips, smiled and said: "If the Prince of Qin's mansion is uneasy about giving birth, at worst I will go back to my mother's house to raise her, and I will go back when I give birth."
Bai Guo couldn't help laughing and said, "Can His Highness King Qin allow you to do this?"
Li Xian'er stuck out her tongue: "Never mind him, he just wished that I wouldn't hold him all day long, if I think about it, if I go back to my mother's house, he might be very happy."
Bai Guo smiled and shook her head, feeling a little envious of Li Xian'er's decisive and straightforward character.
The two walked into Prince Yu's Mansion talking and laughing, handed over the birthday ceremony to the steward of Prince Yu's Mansion, and then followed the servants of the mansion to lead the way to the backyard.
Princess Yu's courtyard was a bit quiet. Some of the female relatives who came to congratulate her were arranged to be guests in the west courtyard, and the remaining close sisters-in-law and sisters of the same family were brought to the backyard.As soon as Bai Guo and Li Xian'er stepped into the backyard, they smelled a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine coming from the house. Li Xian'er subconsciously stopped and covered her mouth and nose, not wanting to go in.
Bai Guo glanced at her and patted her arm: "On the west side of the courtyard seems to be guarded only by King Yu's side concubine, why don't you go and have a look at that side first?"
Li Xian'er got the steps, smiled at Bai Guo, pulled down his cuffs, and whispered, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
The two parted at the backyard gate, and just as Bai Guo took a step forward, she saw a little girl covering her face running out of the half-covered door curtain. Seeing Bai Guo standing in front of the courtyard, she was shocked at first, revealing her red eyes from crying.
"You are?" Bai Guo looked at her suspiciously.
The little girl paused for a moment, saw the palace attendant who was following Bai Guo, stopped and bowed her knees in front of him, and said in a crying voice: "Minister Su Ting'er pays homage to your noble lord."
As soon as she said it, the servant next to her said, "This is Princess Jing."
Su Ting'er immediately changed her words: "The daughter of the people has seen Princess Jing."
When Bai Guo heard her name, she couldn't help asking: "Who is Princess Yu?"
Su Ting'er felt aggrieved and said, "It's my sister."
Bai Guo nodded, took a handkerchief from the attendant servant and handed it to Su Ting'er, looked at him like a child, and asked with a smile: "It's such a good day today, why do you want to be with the second sister-in-law?" Angry? What a daughter's family, crying so embarrassingly, wipe your face quickly."
Seeing Bai Guo's gentle tone and handsome appearance, Su Ting'er couldn't help but blush, took the handkerchief and wiped it carelessly, and said in a soft voice, "Minister, thank you, Princess Jing."
Bai Guo shook her head and asked: "I smell a medicine smell from a distance, but the second sister-in-law's body hasn't recovered yet?"
Su Ting'er lowered her eyes and said: "Since my sister fell ill half a month ago, the decoction has been continuous. It seemed to be getting better, but when something happened in the house, my sister became anxious, and the illness continued intermittently." Good luck."
Bai Guo sighed: "I'll go into the room and talk to Princess Yu."
Su Ting'er was hesitant to speak when she heard the words. She really doesn't want to see her sister now. Before today, she never thought that her sister would say such things to her. With Teng, will the sisters be able to take care of them in the future?
Su Ting'er was raised by the Su family to be simple, but simplicity does not mean stupid. Now that her sister is not doing well in the Prince Yu's mansion, and she has been robbed of the limelight by Concubine Xu, the family is naturally very worried about her. I don't know how many times the only son in the family shed tears, and there are many gray hairs on the temples of her father. She feels that it is not worth it for her sister to marry an inhumane person, but it is such an elder sister who worries the whole family, but in I said something like this today...
Is it for her own good to ask her to be a companion, or is it because she wants to use her so that she can fight that side concubine Xu?
Su Ting'er didn't dare to think any more, but bid farewell to Princess Jing with her eyes downcast, and forced back the tears in her eyes to go to the west courtyard.
Seeing the little girl leave, Bai Guo frowned slightly and walked into the house.
It seemed that Princess Yu's room hadn't been opened for a long time to ventilate the air. A dull and bitter smell filled the nostrils, making people feel more and more stuffy.When Bai Guo walked into the inner room, layers of crimson curtains were falling on the bed, Princess Yu was lying quietly on the bed, only a vague figure could be seen.
The servant girl found a delicate embroidered pier and brought it over. Bai Guo sat on the head of the bed and called out worriedly: "Second sister-in-law is feeling better?"
A faint cough came from inside the curtain, and Princess Yu's gentle and weak voice sounded from inside: "Is it Princess Jing?"
Bai Guo whispered: "It's me."
Princess Yu said lightly: "I'm seriously ill, you should stay away from me, don't get infected together."
Bai Guo smiled: "It's nothing, my brother hasn't congratulated my sister-in-law on her birthday today."
After hearing this, Princess Yu was silent for a while, then lifted the curtain with her slender fingers, showing a sickly face: "It's a pity that you didn't come to see me laughing."
Her voice was mostly sad and sad, and her expression was full of gloom.
Seeing this, Bai Guo hooked up the curtain for her, and persuaded her in a slow voice: "Second sister-in-law, why do you say that? The most important thing right now is to take care of your body first."
Concubine Yu smiled faintly: "I'd rather just die of illness like this, without any hatred or anger. I have been married to him for six or seven years, but I can't compare to the unformed child in Concubine Xu's womb? Three years ago he The promised promises have long since become empty words, and I believed them partly, thinking that he still remembered."
Bai Guo's heart skipped a beat, feeling that there was something wrong, so Princess Yu stared into his eyes again and said, "That's right, I deliberately asked that servant to put abortion pills in Concubine Xu's meal, because The King of Yu once promised me that he would not want any other children except for the children born to me. If the King of Yu wanted a legitimate son and the eldest son, then it would be justifiable to give birth from the womb of this palace! But he still betrayed me in the end. !"
"Second sister-in-law, be careful!"
Bai Guo's eyelids twitched violently, he didn't expect such a gentle face like Princess Yu to be so hysterical, he looked around belatedly, only to realize that those maids and palace people didn't know when to retreat Going out, there are only the two of them in the whole dormitory.
Slightly relieved, Bai Guo looked at Princess Yu who coughed violently after saying that sentence, feeling complicated.
"I only know that you are a good person, and you are different from those who make trouble." After Princess Yu finished speaking, she changed into her usual dignified and gentle appearance. Her eyes seemed to have no focus, and she only stared at the direction of the candlestick, and said lightly. , "It doesn't matter whether you think I'm vicious or crazy now, in the future..."
"Let's talk about the future later." Bai Guo interrupted her suddenly, brows furrowed slightly, "I only told me these things when my second sister-in-law was ill and confused."
Princess Yu was slightly startled when she heard the words, and looked at him.
Bai Guo got up, he didn't want to stay longer in this room, he stood up, Princess Yu opened her mouth, but didn't make a sound to keep him.
Walking out of Princess Yu's main courtyard in a hurry, all the people accompanying Bai Guo followed, all of them were cautious and silent.They didn't know what Princess Yu said to her master in the house, it could be seen that Princess Yu was in a low mood, they looked at each other a few times, and felt that they would be questioned by the prince again after returning to the mansion.
Speaking of which, Bai Guo felt that he had a mediocre relationship with Princess Yu, but he didn't expect that the other party would reveal such a big secret in front of her this time, which really made him feel very uncomfortable.
In a trance, he couldn't tell who the poor man in Prince Yu's mansion was.
Is side concubine Xu pitiful?
As a twin, it is not easy to conceive, and he is a poor man who has lost his child.
Is Princess Yu pitiful?
King Yu gave her a promise but abandoned the promise. Now he framed Concubine Xu's heir because of his madness, and was later rejected by King Yu. He is also a pitiful and hateful person.
For a moment, Bai Guo suddenly hated King Yu, and felt that the simple and honest appearance of the other party became particularly disgusting and hateful.
Thinking in this way, Bai Guo walked all the way to the west courtyard, and heard the sounds of family members playing in the courtyard from a distance. He walked over and saw Li Xian'er sitting on the top of the round table, knocking melon seeds with a half-smile, and A handsome Shuang'er stood beside her, looking a little embarrassed.
"Sister-in-law three, this way!" Li Xian'er saw Bai Guo sharp-eyed, instantly showed a bright smile, and waved her arms to call him over to take a seat.
The courtyard was quiet for a while because of Li Xian'er's words, and everyone's eyes fell on Bai Guo one after another, some were straightforwardly curious, and some were secretly envious.
Bai Guo didn't notice this, but just showed a helpless expression on her face, walked up to Li Xian'er and said, "Eat less melon seeds."
Li Xian'er pushed away the melon seed plate: "I'm bored, so I didn't knock too much."
Bai Guo nodded, looked at Shuang'er standing next to her: "Which family is this?"
"My concubine, Mrs. Xu, has met Princess Jing."
That pair of children is the side concubine Xu in Yu Wang's mansion. Xu's complexion is extraordinarily rosy because of the well-raised confinement child, and his beautiful appearance has a thrilling feeling, but in today's The family members who had seen him couldn't help but sigh with emotion, no wonder this side concubine Xu was able to conceive the seed of His Highness Yu Wang as a twin son.
Bai Guo was also amazed for a moment, but soon regained consciousness: "Xu side concubine."
Concubine Xu forced a smile. After all, he was not the main wife, and she couldn't help but lose confidence in front of the two serious princesses: "Princess Jing just came from my sister?"
Gingko said yes.
The smile on Concubine Xu's face faded a little, showing some tangled expression, then she seemed to look away, concealing the loneliness in her eyes, and said to the guests in the courtyard: "It's not early, I'm afraid my sister is ill and can't After carefully entertaining all the wives, the concubine passed away, so I became the master and called the servants of the house to open the banquet."
Others know that the internal affairs of Prince Yu's mansion are now in the hands of Concubine Xu, and the birthday banquet that should belong to Concubine Yu has become Concubine Xu's home court. But there is no objection.
Li Xian'er couldn't understand this kind of concubines, wives and children. Although she didn't tell people from Prince Yu's mansion to come down, she didn't give Concubine Xu a good face.Concubine Xu also noticed this, she only had a few words with Bai Guo, then got up and went to another table to chat and play with the wives.
When changing tables, Concubine Xu's body accidentally brushed against the back of Bai Guo's hand, and when Bai Guo's earlobe became hot, the Immortal System suddenly said——
"This man is a goddamn eunuch."
Not long after returning to the mansion, Bai Guo and Xie Lin heard that something had happened in Prince Yu's mansion during the daytime. After careful questioning, they found out that it was actually in the belly of Prince Yu's side concubine who was diagnosed as pregnant the day before yesterday. The child was not kept.
"Why is it gone?"
Bai Guo was leaning on a soft bed, she was drowsy at first, but when she heard the news, she suddenly woke up sleepy, opened her eyes slightly and looked at Wang Youquan.
Wang Youquan stood beside Xie Lin, showing a helpless smile: "The servants heard that the side concubine accidentally ate something she shouldn't eat and slipped a baby, but Prince Yu has been childless in the backyard for the past two years. The concubine's baby is really important, and she has carefully explained the food, drink and clothing. The side concubine herself is very careful, but she is so careful, but it is really shocking to have a baby in just two days. Later, she only cried and said that someone in the house had harmed him, but Princess Yu only thought that he couldn't bear the loss of a child, and wanted to suppress the matter, but who knew that concubine was so hot that she wanted to hang herself. There is a commotion in the house."
Bai Guo worried: "What happened to the side concubine?"
Wang Youquan said: "The man was rescued, but he still seems to be in a coma. His Royal Highness Prince Yu just returned to the mansion, and he wanted to punish Princess Yu for this matter. However, Princess Yu usually looks gentle, gentle and kind. , but when it comes to the child's matter, he will not be patient at all."
Bai Guo recalled what happened to Princess Yu when she lost her unborn child, and couldn't help but feel heavy.
King Yu seemed to be a man without heirs. Although there were people in the backyard who were pregnant several times, they all ended up with miscarriage. No one was able to give birth safely.The heirs in Princess Yu's womb were calculated by his concubine, and the first few were either in poor health and couldn't conceive at all, or they had dystocia and hemorrhage, with one corpse and two lives.

Seeing this, Wang Youquan bowed and went out with a wink.

"I just want to call you." Bai Guo blushed slightly.
But Xie Lin said: "Is it because you feel uncomfortable after hearing about the matter in Prince Yu's mansion?"
Bai Guo lowered her eyes and didn't speak, she just slowly dropped the fingers hooked on the jade pendant to Xie Lin's belt, but bit her lips lightly, her whole body seemed to tremble slightly because of this tentative movement .
Xie Lin smiled helplessly, and hugged Bai Guo's wrist with his palm: "Bold."
Maybe it was stimulated by the incident in Prince Yu's mansion, but Bai Guo didn't seem to hear his words, her head was hanging on her chest and blushing, but she stubbornly used her index and middle fingers to untie the strap of Xie Lin's outer robe.
"Your Highness, shall we...have a child?"
His voice trembled violently, and it was the first time he was sober to invite pets so shamelessly, his whole head became chaotic and unconscious, and as soon as he finished speaking, he just wanted to shrink himself into a shell.
Xie Lin couldn't stop laughing, picked him up and hugged him tightly, touched his smooth skin under his clothes inch by inch, and asked softly, "Why do you suddenly want a child?"
Bai Guo was surrounded tightly, trembling and not speaking.
Xie Lin sighed softly in his heart, and didn't force him, but just obeyed Bai Guo's wish and did what he wanted.
The days are short and the nights long.
The next day, Bai Guo woke up on the couch. He sat up holding the brocade quilt with a sore waist and back pain, and suddenly woke up. What the hell did he go crazy yesterday——
He actually pestered His Highness and did so many ridiculous things!
His brows and eyes were full of shame and embarrassment, waiting for the servants outside to wait for him to hear the sound and come in to wash him up, but they couldn't make Bai Guo suppress the enthusiasm on his face.

Bai Guo recovered from the fugue: "Prince Yu's Mansion?"
Wang Youquan said anxiously: "Early this morning, the side concubine who had not hanged herself woke up yesterday, somehow she interrogated a personal servant who was serving beside her. It was the princess's instructions that tampered with his meal."
Bai Guo was shocked: "How could Princess Yu do such a thing?"
Wang Youquan shook his head: "There is no concrete evidence yet, but for some reason His Highness Prince Yu believed the concubine's words, and in a fright, he wanted to escort Princess Yu to the clan's mansion for interrogation on the charge of framing the emperor's heir. After she said that she would abandon Princess Yu, the family of Princess Yu's family has already rushed to Prince Yu's residence to stop Prince Yu, and now everyone is confronting each other in the residence..."
Bai Guo frowned in confusion and said, "How could this be? Princess Yu is the first wife of King Yu. Could it be that His Highness Prince Yu didn't trust her at all?"
Wang Youquan hesitated to speak: "Actually, it's not just the side concubine, some concubines in Prince Yu's mansion are also crying today to ask Prince Yu to give them justice, and they only say that the children who were lost in the past were all because of Princess Yu's envoy.

He was afraid that Xie Lin would bring a man or woman with an unfamiliar appearance back home one day, and tell himself with indifferent eyes that this was his sweetheart. He was even more afraid One day, I will become a housewife who only competes for favor and love.
Some inferiority complex is engraved in the bones, but it is not usually cut open in the sun.

He didn't want to live like Princess Yu.
He wanted a child, his own child.
Even after a long time, His Royal Highness King Jing's eyes will no longer stop for him, but he can still regard the child as his future and hope.
In that case, although life is not very happy, it will not be very sad.
There is something hidden in her heart, and in the next few days, Bai Guo will obviously talk less than before.

On the day of Princess Yu's birthday, Bai Guo prepared the birthday ceremony early, and happened to meet Princess Qin Li Xian'er in front of Prince Yu's mansion.
Li Xian'er hadn't seen Bai Guo for a long time, her originally indifferent, arrogant and bored expression changed, and there was a sincere smile in her eyes, she approached Bai Guo and took his arm, looking like a good brother and sister, curiously asked: "Three Sister-in-law, what birthday gift did you prepare for the second sister-in-law?"
"It's just a little thing." Bai Guo smiled. Seeing that Li Xian'er was a little fatter than before, and hearing something from the Immortal System next to her ear, she couldn't help being stunned, looking at her belly, subconsciously said, "Is there?"
Li Xian'er was stunned for a moment, and there was some surprise and unconcealable pride in her eyes: "My God, how did the third sister-in-law know?"
Bai Guo said: "I see that you have gained a lot of weight."
"Not at all!" Li Xian'er's face was full of anger when she was told this, and after a while, she touched her own face and said dejectedly, "Sister-in-law, is it obvious that I'm fat?"
Bai Guo said: "It was too thin before, but now the face is round and just right."
Only then did Li Xian'er feel relieved, and said to Bai Guo in a low voice: "I just found out that it's only a few days ago, the month is still young, I'm afraid to say it and cause trouble, even the men at home didn't tell him."
Bai Guo nodded, thinking about the matter in Prince Yu's mansion, carefully told her: "The fetal image is not stable in the first three months, so you should be more careful."
Li Xian'er pursed her lips, smiled and said: "If the Prince of Qin's mansion is uneasy about giving birth, at worst I will go back to my mother's house to raise her, and I will go back when I give birth."
Bai Guo couldn't help laughing and said, "Can His Highness King Qin allow you to do this?"
Li Xian'er stuck out her tongue: "Never mind him, he just wished that I wouldn't hold him all day long, if I think about it, if I go back to my mother's house, he might be very happy."
Bai Guo smiled and shook her head, feeling a little envious of Li Xian'er's decisive and straightforward character.
The two walked into Prince Yu's Mansion talking and laughing, handed over the birthday ceremony to the steward of Prince Yu's Mansion, and then followed the servants of the mansion to lead the way to the backyard.
Princess Yu's courtyard was a bit quiet. Some of the female relatives who came to congratulate her were arranged to be guests in the west courtyard, and the remaining close sisters-in-law and sisters of the same family were brought to the backyard.As soon as Bai Guo and Li Xian'er stepped into the backyard, they smelled a strong smell of traditional Chinese medicine coming from the house. Li Xian'er subconsciously stopped and covered her mouth and nose, not wanting to go in.
Bai Guo glanced at her and patted her arm: "On the west side of the courtyard seems to be guarded only by King Yu's side concubine, why don't you go and have a look at that side first?"
Li Xian'er got the steps, smiled at Bai Guo, pulled down his cuffs, and whispered, "Thank you, sister-in-law."
The two parted at the backyard gate, and just as Bai Guo took a step forward, she saw a little girl covering her face running out of the half-covered door curtain. Seeing Bai Guo standing in front of the courtyard, she was shocked at first, revealing her red eyes from crying.
"You are?" Bai Guo looked at her suspiciously.
The little girl paused for a moment, saw the palace attendant who was following Bai Guo, stopped and bowed her knees in front of him, and said in a crying voice: "Minister Su Ting'er pays homage to your noble lord."
As soon as she said it, the servant next to her said, "This is Princess Jing."
Su Ting'er immediately changed her words: "The daughter of the people has seen Princess Jing."
When Bai Guo heard her name, she couldn't help asking: "Who is Princess Yu?"
Su Ting'er felt aggrieved and said, "It's my sister."
Bai Guo nodded, took a handkerchief from the attendant servant and handed it to Su Ting'er, looked at him like a child, and asked with a smile: "It's such a good day today, why do you want to be with the second sister-in-law?" Angry? What a daughter's family, crying so embarrassingly, wipe your face quickly."
Seeing Bai Guo's gentle tone and handsome appearance, Su Ting'er couldn't help but blush, took the handkerchief and wiped it carelessly, and said in a soft voice, "Minister, thank you, Princess Jing."
Bai Guo shook her head and asked: "I smell a medicine smell from a distance, but the second sister-in-law's body hasn't recovered yet?"
Su Ting'er lowered her eyes and said: "Since my sister fell ill half a month ago, the decoction has been continuous. It seemed to be getting better, but when something happened in the house, my sister became anxious, and the illness continued intermittently." Good luck."
Bai Guo sighed: "I'll go into the room and talk to Princess Yu."
Su Ting'er was hesitant to speak when she heard the words. She really doesn't want to see her sister now. Before today, she never thought that her sister would say such things to her. With Teng, will the sisters be able to take care of them in the future?
Su Ting'er was raised by the Su family to be simple, but simplicity does not mean stupid. Now that her sister is not doing well in the Prince Yu's mansion, and she has been robbed of the limelight by Concubine Xu, the family is naturally very worried about her. I don't know how many times the only son in the family shed tears, and there are many gray hairs on the temples of her father. She feels that it is not worth it for her sister to marry an inhumane person, but it is such an elder sister who worries the whole family, but in I said something like this today...
Is it for her own good to ask her to be a companion, or is it because she wants to use her so that she can fight that side concubine Xu?
Su Ting'er didn't dare to think any more, but bid farewell to Princess Jing with her eyes downcast, and forced back the tears in her eyes to go to the west courtyard.
Seeing the little girl leave, Bai Guo frowned slightly and walked into the house.
It seemed that Princess Yu's room hadn't been opened for a long time to ventilate the air. A dull and bitter smell filled the nostrils, making people feel more and more stuffy.When Bai Guo walked into the inner room, layers of crimson curtains were falling on the bed, Princess Yu was lying quietly on the bed, only a vague figure could be seen.
The servant girl found a delicate embroidered pier and brought it over. Bai Guo sat on the head of the bed and called out worriedly: "Second sister-in-law is feeling better?"
A faint cough came from inside the curtain, and Princess Yu's gentle and weak voice sounded from inside: "Is it Princess Jing?"
Bai Guo whispered: "It's me."
Princess Yu said lightly: "I'm seriously ill, you should stay away from me, don't get infected together."
Bai Guo smiled: "It's nothing, my brother hasn't congratulated my sister-in-law on her birthday today."
After hearing this, Princess Yu was silent for a while, then lifted the curtain with her slender fingers, showing a sickly face: "It's a pity that you didn't come to see me laughing."
Her voice was mostly sad and sad, and her expression was full of gloom.
Seeing this, Bai Guo hooked up the curtain for her, and persuaded her in a slow voice: "Second sister-in-law, why do you say that? The most important thing right now is to take care of your body first."
Concubine Yu smiled faintly: "I'd rather just die of illness like this, without any hatred or anger. I have been married to him for six or seven years, but I can't compare to the unformed child in Concubine Xu's womb? Three years ago he The promised promises have long since become empty words, and I believed them partly, thinking that he still remembered."
Bai Guo's heart skipped a beat, feeling that there was something wrong, so Princess Yu stared into his eyes again and said, "That's right, I deliberately asked that servant to put abortion pills in Concubine Xu's meal, because The King of Yu once promised me that he would not want any other children except for the children born to me. If the King of Yu wanted a legitimate son and the eldest son, then it would be justifiable to give birth from the womb of this palace! But he still betrayed me in the end. !"
"Second sister-in-law, be careful!"
Bai Guo's eyelids twitched violently, he didn't expect such a gentle face like Princess Yu to be so hysterical, he looked around belatedly, only to realize that those maids and palace people didn't know when to retreat Going out, there are only the two of them in the whole dormitory.
Slightly relieved, Bai Guo looked at Princess Yu who coughed violently after saying that sentence, feeling complicated.
"I only know that you are a good person, and you are different from those who make trouble." After Princess Yu finished speaking, she changed into her usual dignified and gentle appearance. Her eyes seemed to have no focus, and she only stared at the direction of the candlestick, and said lightly. , "It doesn't matter whether you think I'm vicious or crazy now, in the future..."
"Let's talk about the future later." Bai Guo interrupted her suddenly, brows furrowed slightly, "I only told me these things when my second sister-in-law was ill and confused."
Princess Yu was slightly startled when she heard the words, and looked at him.
Bai Guo got up, he didn't want to stay longer in this room, he stood up, Princess Yu opened her mouth, but didn't make a sound to keep him.
Walking out of Princess Yu's main courtyard in a hurry, all the people accompanying Bai Guo followed, all of them were cautious and silent.They didn't know what Princess Yu said to her master in the house, it could be seen that Princess Yu was in a low mood, they looked at each other a few times, and felt that they would be questioned by the prince again after returning to the mansion.
Speaking of which, Bai Guo felt that he had a mediocre relationship with Princess Yu, but he didn't expect that the other party would reveal such a big secret in front of her this time, which really made him feel very uncomfortable.
In a trance, he couldn't tell who the poor man in Prince Yu's mansion was.
Is side concubine Xu pitiful?
As a twin, it is not easy to conceive, and he is a poor man who has lost his child.
Is Princess Yu pitiful?
King Yu gave her a promise but abandoned the promise. Now he framed Concubine Xu's heir because of his madness, and was later rejected by King Yu. He is also a pitiful and hateful person.
For a moment, Bai Guo suddenly hated King Yu, and felt that the simple and honest appearance of the other party became particularly disgusting and hateful.
Thinking in this way, Bai Guo walked all the way to the west courtyard, and heard the sounds of family members playing in the courtyard from a distance. He walked over and saw Li Xian'er sitting on the top of the round table, knocking melon seeds with a half-smile, and A handsome Shuang'er stood beside her, looking a little embarrassed.
"Sister-in-law three, this way!" Li Xian'er saw Bai Guo sharp-eyed, instantly showed a bright smile, and waved her arms to call him over to take a seat.
The courtyard was quiet for a while because of Li Xian'er's words, and everyone's eyes fell on Bai Guo one after another, some were straightforwardly curious, and some were secretly envious.
Bai Guo didn't notice this, but just showed a helpless expression on her face, walked up to Li Xian'er and said, "Eat less melon seeds."
Li Xian'er pushed away the melon seed plate: "I'm bored, so I didn't knock too much."
Bai Guo nodded, looked at Shuang'er standing next to her: "Which family is this?"
"My concubine, Mrs. Xu, has met Princess Jing."
That pair of children is the side concubine Xu in Yu Wang's mansion. Xu's complexion is extraordinarily rosy because of the well-raised confinement child, and his beautiful appearance has a thrilling feeling, but in today's The family members who had seen him couldn't help but sigh with emotion, no wonder this side concubine Xu was able to conceive the seed of His Highness Yu Wang as a twin son.
Bai Guo was also amazed for a moment, but soon regained consciousness: "Xu side concubine."
Concubine Xu forced a smile. After all, he was not the main wife, and she couldn't help but lose confidence in front of the two serious princesses: "Princess Jing just came from my sister?"
Gingko said yes.
The smile on Concubine Xu's face faded a little, showing some tangled expression, then she seemed to look away, concealing the loneliness in her eyes, and said to the guests in the courtyard: "It's not early, I'm afraid my sister is ill and can't After carefully entertaining all the wives, the concubine passed away, so I became the master and called the servants of the house to open the banquet."
Others know that the internal affairs of Prince Yu's mansion are now in the hands of Concubine Xu, and the birthday banquet that should belong to Concubine Yu has become Concubine Xu's home court. But there is no objection.
Li Xian'er couldn't understand this kind of concubines, wives and children. Although she didn't tell people from Prince Yu's mansion to come down, she didn't give Concubine Xu a good face.Concubine Xu also noticed this, she only had a few words with Bai Guo, then got up and went to another table to chat and play with the wives.
When changing tables, Concubine Xu's body accidentally brushed against the back of Bai Guo's hand, and when Bai Guo's earlobe became hot, the Immortal System suddenly said——
"This man is a goddamn eunuch."
