Chapter 20 White Rabbit Earrings, Nearly Miscarriage
Cheng Shuyi was on the swing in the yard, swinging intermittently, but with an unhappy look on his face.
Wen Wanyu walked over and said with a smile, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"
Cheng Shuyi looked up at her, then lowered his eyes and shook his head.
What right did she have to be unhappy? Why should she be unhappy? The emperor favored Wanwan, so she should be happy.
Wen Wanyu immediately noticed something was wrong with her and acted as if he was about to leave: "Not unhappy? That's good. Just consider it a wasted trip. Then I'm leaving?"
"Hey!" Cheng Shuyi hesitated for a moment and pursed his lips, "Are you really leaving?"
Wen Wanyu smiled lightly, walked over and sat beside her: "I'm relieved that you're okay. But I can stay with you."
"Thank you." Cheng Shuyi slowly leaned his head on her shoulder.
"Shuyi, I hope that our relationship won't be affected by other people."
"good."
Wen Wanyu couldn't guarantee that Cheng Shuyi wasn't attracted to the Emperor, so her attempts at probing him became particularly awkward.
She couldn't imagine what would happen between the two of them if Cheng Shuyi really fell in love with the emperor.
…………
At night, Wen Wanyu began to dress up. She had a good idea of the emperor's preferences: he disliked heavy makeup and preferred fresh, clean looks.
I don’t like to put on lipstick, and it’s a taboo!
Therefore, every time she slept with him, Wen Wanyu always managed to please him. Of course, this was just her own feeling.
Wen Wanyu once again got on the Fengluan Chunen car.
As for "this matter", Wen Wanyu prefers to be in his own Changlixuan. After all, he doesn't have to rush back and forth in the middle of the night.
She was not willing to stay in Chengqian Palace, even if the emperor was willing. No one in the harem had this honor except the queen and those two.
Wen Wanyu sat quietly in the chair.
Suddenly, a palm-sized brocade box appeared in front of her. She looked up and saw Xie Junyao looking at her with a smile on his face.
Just as he was about to stand up to greet, someone held his shoulders.
"What is this?" Wen Wanyu didn't move and took it slowly.
Xie Junyao sat down and said, "Open it and take a look."
Wen Wanyu opened the brocade box and found a pair of earrings inside, jade rabbit pounding medicine earrings inlaid with rubies.
The Jade Rabbit is carved so vividly that it appears lifelike under the candlelight.
"Do you like it?"
How could I not like it? It must be really expensive.
Wen Wanyu smiled sweetly and said, "I like it. I like it very much. Thank you, Your Majesty."
Seeing her holding the earrings and grinning foolishly, Xie Junyao felt indescribably satisfied. At this moment, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "As long as you like it. Li Dexian found this pair of earrings in the warehouse. These earrings are very suitable for you at first glance."
The rabbit on the earring is as cute as she is.
Wen Wanyu said regretfully, "But, I can't take care of her for the time being. I'm afraid I can only watch."
It's really bad to have a low status. A beautiful woman actually has ruby earrings, which must be a gift from the emperor.
Xie Junyao seemed to be thinking: "If you want to take it, take it. Is it possible that someone will snatch it away?"
It was easy to say, the concubines wouldn't dare snatch it, but she would be the one hated! Even though Wen Wanyu was speechless in her heart, she didn't show it.
In an inaudible voice, she said, "Actually, I'm reluctant to bring it with me."
Xie Junyao rubbed her head and said, "Be good. Don't be reluctant to take it with you. I will think of you when I have good things in the future."
"Yeah!" Wen Wanyu nodded.
She was born well-behaved, especially when she nodded just now, not to mention how well-behaved she was. Xie Junyao couldn't help but pick her up and walked towards the bed.
An hour later
The girl stretched out a snow-white arm from behind the curtain, picked up the teacup beside the bed, and drank from it in big gulps.
If you look closely, you can see red marks dotted on the soft and white arms.
He put down the teacup and let out an inaudible sigh.
"Have you finished drinking?"
"Okay——" He was pulled back before he could finish his words.
…………
More than ten days passed in this boring way, and in a blink of an eye it was the sixth day of June, which was Concubine De's birthday.
Concubine De was frugal and disliked festivities. In previous years, she would invite all the concubines in the palace to hold a small birthday banquet in the pavilion by the carp pond.
Defei invited almost all the concubines. The Empress and Huifei were not able to come due to illness, and Zhenguifei was also absent, but she did not give any reason.
Concubine De didn’t care whether Concubine Zhengui came or not.
Concubine De raised the eldest prince, and Concubine Wan was one level lower than Concubine De. But for the sake of face and rules, Concubine Wan still came.
In the Carp Pond, everyone raised their glasses:
"Wishing Her Majesty the Virtuous Consort a happy birthday."
De Fei smiled gracefully, naturally taking the position of host: "Thank you, sisters."
The concubines began to send birthday gifts in groups of three or four.
After giving gifts
Wen Wanyu stood alone by the fence under the shade of a tree. It wasn't long before Yu Meiren's voice came from behind her: "Why are you here alone, Miss Wen?"
Turning around, she saw Fang Cainu and Yu Meiren walking towards her. Wen Wanyu didn't answer her, but just smiled.
Fang Cainv and Yu Meiren came over and stood in a row with her by the pond, watching the carp.
Jin Fangyi and Yang Meiren arrived after them.
Wen Wanyu took a special look and saw Jin Fangyi standing behind Yu Meiren, and Yang Meiren standing on the other side of Yu Meiren.
Suddenly, without any warning, Fang Cainü threw herself forward and fell into the lake with a splash.
Everyone gathered around to watch the excitement and shouted for help.
As the storms continued, Yu Meiren knelt down in pain.
"beauty!"
"Beauty, what's wrong with you?"
Yu Meiren held her left calf, a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, "It hurts, it hurts so much."
Holding his calf and saying it hurt, Wen Wanyu frowned. Could it be that he was kicked in the calf intentionally like her?
As expected, pregnant women will never have peace wherever they go.
Her intuition told her that she was somewhat involved in this matter.
"What happened to Poppy? Can you get up?"
Poppy Yu held her stomach again and said, "My stomach hurts."
"What's going on?" Concubine De rushed over after hearing the noise and took charge of the situation: "Quick, move Concubine Yu to Concubine Wan's Jinxiu Palace first."
Concubine Wan was immediately displeased: "Why send her to my Jinxiu Palace?"
Such an unlucky thing also happened to her.
But don't have a miscarriage.
Concubine De said slowly, "This place is closest to my sister's Jinxiu Palace. My sister, please put the overall situation first. After all, Concubine Yu is pregnant with the heir of the emperor."
Concubine De was used to making a mountain out of a molehill. Concubine Wan turned sideways in displeasure: "What do you mean, Concubine De? When did I stop putting the greater good first?"
She sternly ordered the eunuchs and palace maids: "Didn't you hear what Concubine De said? Hurry up and move Concubine Yu to Jinxiu Palace."
All the concubines followed her to Jinxiu Palace.
Concubine De didn't seem to be affected. A good birthday party had such an incident, but anyone else would have felt a little uncomfortable.
