Chapter 592: An Old Clam Gives Birth to a
Pearl Xu Muhua sent Concubine Zhang out of the palace and left her alone. She had already told the three brothers of the Feng family what to do, and believed that they could make arrangements. As for Concubine Zhang, she was not a naive person. She was going to leave and start a new life with a new identity, so she must have made preparations.
If she left the palace without any preparation, it would be her own choice how she would live her life in the future. She was her friend, not her mother.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Grand Princess is back!"
Wu'er walked in quickly, holding a letter in her hand, "Your Majesty, this is a letter from the Princess's Mansion."
Xu Muhua was immediately delighted when she heard it, and stretched out her hand to take the letter, "She's finally back, I was wondering how long it would take them to arrive."
The Grand Princess was out traveling, and the Emperor was seriously ill, so the royal family would definitely send a message to tell her. They had to hurry back for both emotional and logical reasons, and for both public and private reasons. She also sent them a letter privately, telling them what was going on in the palace.
She hadn't seen her stepmother's family for a long time, and she didn't know what changes her stepmother would have after being outside for so long. The
Grand Princess is now the Grand Princess, and as soon as she returned to Beijing, she went into the palace. She first went to pay her respects to the late emperor's remains, cried for a while, and then paid her respects to the new emperor.
Finally, they had enough time to arrive at the palace where Xu Muhua currently lived - Yanxi Palace.
When the Grand Princess saw Xu Muhua, she first looked at her carefully, and then kept nodding her head: "It seems that you are living well in the palace, and I am relieved."
"Don't worry about me, stepmother. I can live well no matter where I am! But you, stepmother, I often worry that you are not used to it outside."
When the Grand Princess mentioned this, the sadness on her face was finally replaced by a touch of vitality, and her voice was a little raised. "At first, I was really not used to it. You know, I have always lived in the capital, and the farthest place I have been is Jinling, but it is just a change of place to live."
"Every aspect of this trip is different from before. I was not used to it at first. But later, I could feel the fun. It is a fun that I could not feel in the capital, no matter how rich and glorious my life was, or how comfortable it was!" In
the capital, no matter how good it was, I was trapped in this small world, and I had no idea what the outside world was like.
She followed her husband and Hong'er to see mountains and ridges that she had never seen before, or even imagined, flowing rivers, terrifying abysses, vast plains and grasslands...
Every time she went to a place, she would be amazed and sighed for a long time, thinking that this trip was worth her life! And she had her beloved by her side.
It's just that her body is really weak, especially recently. I don't know if it's because she was in a hurry to return to the capital, and after knowing the news about her brother, she felt heavy-hearted, so that her body also felt uncomfortable.
Xu Muhua nodded: "Yes, the world outside is so wonderful. It would be a pity not to go out and take a look." The
eldest princess looked at her and opened her mouth, wanting to say something but stopping.
She knew that Muhua had never thought of entering the palace, but unfortunately she was trapped here now, and she was afraid that she would never have the chance to go out.
At this time, she didn't say anything to spoil the fun.
The eldest princess sat down and talked with Xu Muhua about their family of three's travel life outside for more than a year.
As they chatted, Xu Muhua started gossiping again, "Stepmother, do you and stepfather have any ideas for my brother's marriage?"
The eldest princess sighed when she mentioned this, "What ideas do I have? I came back for his marriage and future. But so many things happened later, and there was no chance. Plus, I was away again, how do you think we can find one?"
"Didn't you meet anyone you like along the way? Or are you planning to find a partner for my brother in the capital?"
The eldest princess paused and said, "I don't have this idea. But I still think it's better to find one in the capital. After all, we are all from the capital and we will come back sooner or later."
I can't travel outside all my life. If I come back one day, the wife that Hong'er marries is not from the capital, it's thousands of miles away. Besides, it is not easy to talk about marriage, you can't just casually decide on it halfway.
"My stepmother should stay in the capital for a while when she comes back this time, so that she can find a good match for my stepbrother. My stepbrother is not young anymore, it's time for him to get married."
If Ling Hongge heard her say this, she would definitely roll her eyes at her.
The eldest princess actually had the same idea, "Yes, that's exactly what I plan to do."
The eldest princess sat in the Yanxi Palace for a while, talked about the past with Xu Muhua, and then left.
After all, it is still the period of national mourning, and she is the eldest princess who has just returned not long ago. Staying in the palace of the new emperor's concubine for too long will easily be criticized.
The funeral of the late emperor is complicated and long, and there are endless things to do every day.
There were only two or three concubines in the late emperor's harem. Now, no matter their status or rank, they were all busy every day.
Not two days later, the eldest princess suddenly fainted while kneeling in front of the spirit!
This scared everyone!
They quickly placed her in a nearby hall and invited a royal doctor.
Who knew that when the royal doctor came and took her pulse, what he said shocked everyone!
"The eldest princess is pregnant, and it has been more than two months! This time it was because of overwork that caused the fainting and the miscarriage. She needs to rest well in the future and must not overwork again, otherwise the fetus will be in danger!" The
eldest princess was in a daze and just woke up when she heard the words of the royal doctor. She was stunned and didn't react for a long time!
Who, who is pregnant?
She looked at the people standing around with a blank look.
The first person to come back to her senses was Xu Muhua. She sat down on the edge of the bed, holding the Grand Princess's hand and said happily: "Stepmother, you are pregnant! The doctor said it has been more than two months! Because you have been overworked recently and did not rest well, you fainted. As long as you have a good rest, it will be fine!" I
really didn't expect that after so many years, the Grand Princess and her husband are going to have a child again!
"What? This palace...you said that this palace...is pregnant? How, how is this possible, this palace is so old!"
The Grand Princess was stunned.
She can be a grandmother at this age!
Isn't this an old clam giving birth to a pearl? If it gets out, people will laugh to death!
The Grand Princess never thought that she would be pregnant at this age!
