When Concubine Li said these words, there was no light in her eyes. This look of despair made the King of Xixia feel uneasy: "Concubine, as long as you are by my side, it is enough. Children are not important to me. I will be at ease if you are well."
Concubine Li turned her face away and refused to look at the King of Western Xia again.
The King of Xixia wanted to say something else, but Feng Zhuohua walked in and said, "Father, Concubine Li is in an unstable mood right now, let's let her calm down first."
Seeing that Concubine Li was stubborn and refused to pay attention to him, the King of Xixia could only nod and stand up to go out: "Then you stay with Concubine Li, I will go out first."
After sending everyone away, Feng Zhuohua walked to the bedside and looked at Concubine Cangqi's face for a long time before asking, "Concubine Cangqi, you are pregnant, why did you hide it from your son?"
The imperial concubine looked at Feng Zhuohua and said, "I won't make the same mistake again."
"Has Concubine Lu always felt that my birth was a mistake?"
The imperial concubine smiled, but tears rolled down her eyes: "I don't want any of these."
"If Concubine Li feels that I am dispensable, then I will never ask about your feelings in the future."
"Zhuohua!" Concubine Li's eyes were filled with pity. "Concubine Li has come to this point where there is no way out. This child should not have been born in the first place."
Feng Zhuohua did not respond to Concubine Li's words and walked out.
There was no one in the palace, so Concubine Li placed her hand on Li Tan's belly. How could a child born with hatred in her heart be happy?
Just as Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing had expected, the fact that Jinyan Tower had not welcomed guests for many days finally caused complaints from the people of Xiajing. This time it was the fourth prince Feng Haojie who brought up this matter.
The King of Western Xia then realized the importance of Jinyan Tower to the people of Xiajing, but he had already said it. Could he still drive Su Chenyu and others out?
After the morning court session, Prime Minister Sun and Marquis of Xinyang walked out of the palace together.
"My Lord, the Emperor cannot come forward to resolve this matter right now, and we, as his subjects, should also share the Emperor's worries."
Xinyang Hou had this plan in mind: "The Prime Minister is right, but it may not be easy to get the people from Dayu to leave Jinyan Tower."
"What's so difficult about this? First use courtesy, then use force. If Su Chenyu doesn't know what's good for her, just scare her and let her go on her own."
Xinyang Hou understood Prime Minister Sun's intention: "Prime Minister is really smart."
After arriving at the mansion, Marquis Xinyang immediately sent someone to take gifts to Jinyan Tower.
Ciyu was leaning on the window sill, watching the people passing by on the street, when he suddenly saw a carriage stop at the entrance of Jinyan Building. He immediately turned around and informed Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing who were playing chess: "Someone is coming."
Su Chenyu dropped a child: "It seems that the person we are waiting for has arrived."
Baili Yanqing looked at the chessboard and said, "It looks like you won this round again."
Soon, there was a knock on the door, and Aunt Xu's voice rang out: "Princess, Prince Consort, it's the Marquis of Xinyang who wants to see you."
Su Chenyu glanced at Si Yu, who understood and left immediately with Nanny Xu. Not long after, Xinyang Hou came in and saw the two playing chess. He smiled and asked, "Princess and the prince consort are playing chess? They are in a good mood."
Su Chenyu glanced at him and said, "There's nothing else to do, so let's play some chess to relieve our boredom. I don't know why the Marquis of Xinyang came here today. Is it to apologize for the rudeness of Princess Xinning that day?"
