Chapter 132 Confidant
Bai Jieyu in the delivery room had changed into clean clothes. She showed no joy at giving birth to a child. Instead, she stared blankly at the curtain above her head.
If she had known that giving birth would harm her body, she would not have gotten pregnant.
I would rather be a childless concubine for my whole life than this.
Her nose felt sore and she slowly closed her eyes. As tears began to flow, she finally heard an order that made her feel better.
"I hereby declare that Concubine Bai has been promoted to imperial concubine for her meritorious service in giving birth to a son, and is granted the title of Mei."
At least, she is now the queen of a palace.
Can raise their own children.
After the concubines left Mingsexuan, Concubine Yu got on the sedan chair in a rage.
"These fairies are all better at getting pregnant and giving birth than the other one."
Jade Concubine's face was distorted with anger, and her eyes were staring fiercely at the front.
As Ruolan walked, she whispered, "Your Majesty, a prince born to a foreign concubine cannot possibly inherit the throne."
"Don't worry, ma'am."
Concubine Yu gritted her teeth and said in a voice that only she could hear: "I really underestimated her. She is indeed worthy of being raised on horseback."
It was precisely because Bai Jieyu was stronger than the average person that she was able to give birth to the child so smoothly even after being drugged.
It can be said that she is lucky and can survive every time.
When the sedan chair landed at Yiyuan Palace, the young eunuch at the door came to greet it.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Yan is here and is waiting for you inside."
If it were in the past, although she wanted to avoid suspicion, she would still be very happy when Concubine Yan came.
But when he heard the three words "Jieyu Yan", the anger in his heart became even stronger.
They were both noble ladies, so why did God favor Situ Nanzhi so much? She was favored by the emperor as soon as she entered the palace, and became the crown prince so quickly.
She straightened her clothes and walked into the hall, but there was a coldness between her eyebrows.
When Concubine Yan heard the footsteps, she immediately stood up and walked towards them in small steps.
"Sister, you are finally back."
Seeing that Concubine Yu's fair face seemed to be stained with a layer of dark frost, Yan Jieyu frowned and said, "Sister, has Concubine Bai given birth?"
Concubine Yu snorted coldly: "Now you should be called Concubine Mei."
"The emperor also gave her a title?" Concubine Yan was a little surprised.
Concubine Yu raised her sleeves and sat down, frowning as she said, "She gave birth to a prince, and since she is a mother, it is not surprising that she was given a title because of her son."
As she spoke, she looked at Yan Jieyu's flat belly with a smile in her eyes, raised her lips meaningfully and said, "It will be the same for you in the future, sister."
Yan Jieyu pursed her lips and smiled, her smile charming and charming: "Sister is the same."
She stood up coquettishly and walked in front of Concubine Yu.
"Sister, my child is your child."
As she spoke, she took Yu Fei's hand and placed it on her lower abdomen.
"Zhi'er is young and doesn't know how to take care of a child or be a mother. It would be better to leave him to his sister to raise after he is born."
Concubine Yu's eyes lit up, and she looked up at Concubine Yan, who had a sincere expression on her face: "Is it true?"
Although my father and Uncle Situ had said that after Situ Nanzhi gave birth to a child, they would raise him together.
But raising a child together is not as good as raising a child by yourself.
Concubine Yan nodded heavily, and the pearl hairpins on her temples trembled slightly, emitting sparkling golden light.
She said firmly, "The harem is full of twists and turns. I'm afraid Zhi'er won't be able to protect him properly. I'll leave him to my sister. She will definitely take better care of him."
Concubine Yu looked intently at Concubine Yan. Her eyes were smiling brightly and she looked very serious, not joking.
On second thought, it makes sense.
Situ Nanzhi became pregnant as soon as she entered the palace, which was not necessarily a good thing for her.
She had just entered the palace and was still young and naive. She did not understand the dangers of the deep palace and had not yet established a firm foothold in the harem. It was difficult for her to protect the royal heir in her womb with just the emperor's favor.
Concubine Yu swirls her fingertips around her belly, lowers her brows and smiles softly, "Zhi'er is still as well-behaved as before. Since you call me sister, I will definitely protect you and help you give birth to the royal heir, and raise him well."
Concubine Yan smiled brightly and said in a charming voice, "Then... after he inherits the throne, I will be the Empress Dowager and I will be the Empress Dowager."
The Empress Dowager, the legitimate mother, is usually given a title to show her status and respect.
Her biological mother, the Empress Dowager, did not have a title.
Concubine Yu was very satisfied, with a beautiful and graceful flower blooming at the corner of her mouth: "Then I will wait for that day."
She gently patted Yan Jieyu's abdomen with her fingertips.
That night, the night was as dark as ink, and the thin moonlight softly sprinkled on the window lattice.
Liu Yuetang had just finished bathing and was standing in front of the bed in a thin gauze dress admiring the moon.
Her wet hair draped over her shoulders and hung down to her slender waist, mixed with a hint of orchid fragrance that permeated the air.
When she was in a daze, a pair of warm hands wrapped around her waist from behind.
Liu Yuetang's beautiful eyes trembled in surprise. Without turning around, she only whispered, "Why is the Emperor here?"
Xiao Heng rested his chin on the crook of her neck, which exuded a fresh fragrance, and took a deep breath: "I wanted to see Miaomiao, so I came here."
A tingling breath brushed against her neck, and Liu Yuetang couldn't help but shrug, "It's best that the Emperor doesn't come to my palace at this time."
"I know." Xiao Heng said solemnly.
He held Liu Yuetang's body towards him, staring at her delicate and charming face and said, "Don't you miss me, Miaomiao?"
Before Concubine Yan entered the palace, Xiao Heng could see Liu Yuetang almost ten days a month.
Now, he hadn't set foot in Jinxiu Pavilion for a month, and he actually felt a little happy on the way here, hoping to see the woman in front of him as soon as possible.
When I really saw him, I didn't know what to say.
I just wanted to hug her, and I felt safe just by smelling her scent.
During the month that Xiao Heng was away, Liu Yuetang felt very comfortable.
There is no need to think about how to act, how to calculate, or how to flatter him.
Even when I slept, I slept very soundly.
But she knew that such peaceful days were only temporary, and were the calm before the storm.
Liu Yuetang's eyes were filled with spring water as she looked at Xiao Heng.
"Of course I do."
Xiao Heng's lips curled slightly, and he took her into his arms, without saying a word, just hugging her tightly.
After a long while, he finally called out, "Miaomiao."
"Miaomiao is here." Liu Yuetang replied.
Xiao Heng's pupils flickered faintly: "I don't want you to be caught up in this storm."
Liu Yuetang looked at him deeply and said slowly: "I will stay with you forever, no matter how far I go."
"Although I don't know how to help Your Majesty keep out the rain, I can accompany Your Majesty in the rain and wait for the brilliant dawn tomorrow."
When Xiao Heng heard this, his eyes were filled with emotion.
He moved his lips, but suppressed the tender words in his throat.
The two looked at each other, and all the words were expressed in their eyes.
A strange feeling spread in Xiao Heng's heart.
He suddenly realized that the woman in front of him was no ordinary concubine.
She is more like a confidant who stands by me through thick and thin. I don't have to say anything, she understands everything.
