Chapter 724: Strategy for the Blind Villain (20)
Wang Baolin accidentally fell and sprained her ankle while flying a kite in the imperial garden. When the imperial physician examined her, he found that she was already one month pregnant. The emperor was overjoyed and immediately promised to promote her to concubine if she gave birth to a prince.
Yes, anyone in the emperor's position would be happy to know that they would soon have a new prince.
The previous princes were useless, and the newly recognized prince had potential but was born with a disability. There was no rush to place hope on the new prince and train him slowly.
When Ji Jingrong learned the news, his beautiful eyebrows frowned for a moment and then relaxed.
He underestimated Wang Baolin. Not only could she seduce the emperor to bring her into the palace, but she was also pregnant under his nose.
But, even if she gave birth to a prince, what would happen? There were many cases of princes dying in infancy in the harem.
"Master, do you want to take her..." Ma Jinyang made a "click" gesture.
Although Ji Jingrong can't see, his eyes are sharper than those of normal people. Ma Jinyang always forgets that he is a person born blind.
"No need." Ji Jingrong didn't want to take action now to arouse suspicion. He thought for a moment, "Isn't the crazy queen still in her own palace? It's time to let her out for some fresh air."
Ma Jinyang immediately understood what he meant. Killing someone with a borrowed knife is smarter than taking action directly.
"Jingrong, it's time to read." Shi Yi's voice came from outside the door.
"The prince's wife is here." Ma Jinyang hid in the dark, "Master, please go out first."
"Do things more steadily." Ma Jinyang had already made his identity clear. He was one of his own, so Ji Jingrong naturally didn't want to see him make any mistakes.
Ma Jinyang whispered, "Yes."
Ji Jingrong then straightened his clothes and strode out of the room.
Reading books with Ji Jingrong for half an hour in the afternoon is a new pleasure that Shi Yi has found since entering the palace. Ji Jingrong is sometimes too busy, and Shi Yi doesn't force it.
Ji Jingrong himself took this matter to heart and never delayed it once.
Today, it was the first time that she had to remind him.
"What were you doing?" Shi Yi took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat. It was just a few steps, why did he sweat so much.
"I just took a nap on my sister's back, and almost missed the reading time with my sister. I was a little nervous." Ji Jingrong took the initiative to wrap her hand. Her fingers were slender and interlocked, fitting perfectly with his. Shi
Yi chuckled, "It's summer, and it's common to feel sleepy. It's also my negligence. I should have put the nap time in advance."
"No need." Ji Jingrong interrupted, "I think sister's arrangement is good. Otherwise, after taking a nap, my head is dizzy and I can't read this book."
"Continue today?" Shi Yi walked through the corridor with him.
"Yeah." In this life in the palace, he can only feel at ease when he is with her.
He will not let go of any of those who want to hurt her.
His momentum suddenly became fierce. Not long ago, a young palace maid who wanted to drug her sister's food was caught. She was going to torture her but she committed suicide by hitting the pillar on the spot. The mastermind behind this has not been caught yet.
——————
This is the 25th day since Hua Jinxiu entered the palace.
In just 25 days, she successfully became pregnant with the dragon seed. The emperor promised that she could be promoted to concubine as long as she gave birth to a prince. But she was not happy at all.
She was forced to enter the palace.
If she had a choice, she would never stay in this palace, be with a man as old as her father, and get pregnant with his child.
Her father, who had always been law-abiding, suddenly made a big mistake, and only the emperor could pardon her father's sin. She made a plan and entered the palace without the emperor's suspicion. When
she entered the palace, she found that Qu Jingrong had become Ji Jingrong and became a prince.
What a ridiculous thing.
The unpopular bastard of the Taifu turned out to be the prince of the current emperor who was wandering outside. This prince also married his former sister as his princess.
And her identity changed from Hua Jinxiu, who was loved by her parents, to Wang Baolin, who had no one to rely on.
"Master, it's time to rest. The imperial physician said that you have been too worried recently, which is not good for the dragon seed in your belly." The little maid who served her put on a cloak for her.
In this hot summer, everyone feels hot, but her master's body is different from ordinary people. The hotter the weather, the
lower the body temperature. As a servant, she is always worried that her master will catch a cold. "Go and announce the prince's wife. I haven't seen her since I entered the palace for so long." Hua Jinxiu tore off her cloak. Her body temperature is low because she is born with a cold body, which cannot be cured by covering herself with a cloak or blanket.
The little maid didn't intend to go, but seeing that the master was persistent, she had to put down her cloak.
There is only one prince's wife living in this palace, so it is easy to find. Everyone knows that Wang Baolin is now a unique figure in the harem, so everyone is willing to give her a face. The little maid quickly found Shi Yi.
"Wang Baolin wants to summon me?" Although Shi Yi was surprised, he followed her obediently.
Ma Jinyang felt that something was wrong and immediately sent someone to find his master.
When she was with Master Qu, Hua Jinxiu had secretly met Shi Yi several times. But at that time, her attitude towards Shi Yi was not as hateful as it is now.
Sitting on the rattan chair, she stroked her belly with one hand to show off, but her eyes kept looking at Shi Yi.
"After the prince's wife entered the palace, she seems to have become much plumper. Is she pregnant like me?" She covered her mouth and laughed, but her eyes were full of resentment.
"Empress Baolin is joking. Shi Yi just ate more recently and gained weight." The neither humble nor arrogant attitude made Hua Jinxiu even more annoyed. Her eyes accidentally fell on the dry well next to her, and she had an idea.
"I dropped a precious pearl hairpin into this dry well today, and I haven't been able to fish it out yet. I wonder if I can trouble the prince's wife. This dry well is only more than one person high, it won't hurt anyone."
"For such an important matter, Shi Yi suggested that it would be safer to ask the palace maids of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to do it. Shi Yi is clumsy and accidentally destroyed the pearl hairpin of Empress Baolin, which would be a serious crime." Shi Yi sensed her hostility and was naturally unwilling to do what she said.
"It seems that the prince's wife is unwilling. It really let me down."
Shi Yi saw her suddenly pounce on him, hesitated for a moment, and caught her. But she covered her stomach and cried out in pain, and the cold sweat flowed down like money.
"You are so bold, the prince's wife, you dare to push Empress Baolin. If anything happens to the Empress, you will be held responsible!" The little maid ran over quickly and hugged her master in her arms.
Coincidentally, the emperor just showed up.
Shi Yi smiled bitterly. She encountered the lowest level of palace fighting - frame-up?!
