Chapter 195 The Imperial Palace is So Rich and Fascinating
"Your Highness, as per your instructions, the food has been sent from the imperial kitchen, and the newly delivered preserved fruits have also been delivered. We have assigned some attentive servants to serve, and all they use is the best."
The chief eunuch reported back while carefully observing his master's reaction.
Previously, everyone in the palace said that the Eastern Palace would soon welcome a Crown Princess, who would be either a girl from the Sun family or the Lou family.
But no one expected that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would bring a woman into the palace at this critical juncture, and she was the former wife of the Marquis of Ningyuan.
He had just taken a look and thought that Yu was really beautiful.
There are all kinds of beauties in the palace, but they are still inferior to Yu. I think no matter who it is, they will never forget her after meeting her once.
It's no wonder that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has always been chaste and never touched women, was brought into the palace without any regard. However, if His Majesty knew about this, he would probably be furious.
However, His Majesty is now seriously ill and the Crown Prince has long had the final say in the palace.
Xiao Jinghe nodded slightly, "Whatever she wants, send it all to her. If there's anything she can't make a decision about, just come to me."
The chief eunuch said: "I understand."
"Back off."
"yes."
After a while, Doctor Chen walked in, his palms still sweating, "Your Highness."
Xiao Jinghe raised her eyes to look at him, pursing her thin lips, "During the time she is in the palace, you will take care of her body. If anything happens to her, I will only ask you for help."
Doctor Chen was shocked. He thought the prince came to him to prescribe an abortion drug, but it turned out that he wanted him to regulate the woman's body.
It seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to keep the child in Yu's belly.
He didn't dare reveal any knowledge of the matter, and simply assumed that the child was the Crown Prince. "I understand, Your Highness, please rest assured."
Soon, Xiao Jinghe was the only one left in the hall. He picked up a memorial and read it, but he was thinking about Yu Qinghuan.
He thought that as long as Yu Qinghuan felt the benefits of staying in the palace, she would definitely not be willing to leave and would marry him obediently.
Who wouldn't want to be a queen?
...
Sang Ru had a miserable face and was taken into the palace by the guards without even having time to pack her luggage.
Along the way, she didn't even dare to raise her head, for fear of running into some noble person.
She had heard that there were many nobles in the palace, and if she offended anyone, she would definitely lose her life. She didn't know why the girl stayed in the palace. Didn't she say before that she would not enter the palace?
Sang Ru's confusion was resolved when she met Yu Qinghuan.
She saw a palace decorated in an extravagant style, with several guards standing guard outside. Inside the palace, there were six palace maids and two eunuchs serving her. Her delicate and frail girl was lying on a bed that could accommodate five people. She didn't need to ask for anything to eat, as someone would feed her.
There was even someone who held a book for her to read, and another person was holding a candle next to her.
The hall was filled with all kinds of exquisite cakes and pastries, as well as many fruits and vegetables that she had never even seen before. They looked like they were not something that ordinary people could eat.
After all, the wealth and splendor of the palace is so fascinating.
Seeing Sang Ru coming, Yu Qinghuan stood up lazily and waved his hand to signal the servants in the hall to leave.
"Why are you standing there like an idiot? Come here!" She waved at Sang Ru.
Sang Ru felt as if she was calling the cat of Cheng Gelao in the next courtyard, so she walked over and asked, "Miss, why don't you leave the palace?"
Yu Qinghuan gave her a knowing look, "Someone won't let me leave."
Sang Ru widened her eyes and asked, "Then why did you call me here?"
If the girl had left her outside, she could have thought of a way to find the young master or the second master to see if she could get him out of the palace. But now, both of them are in the palace. It is wishful thinking to want to talk to someone outside.
Yu Qinghuan stood up, picked up a stack of cakes and fruits from the side, and walked over to Sang Ru. "I've tried them all just now, and these two taste the best. They're even better than those at Xifeng Tower. Come and try them."
Sang Ru couldn't eat any more. She curled her lips and said, "Miss, it's already this late. Why are you still thinking about eating?"
Yu Qinghuan took advantage of the moment when she opened her mouth to stuff a piece of fruit pulp into her mouth.
The sweet juice splashed in her mouth, bringing with it a fragrant smell. Sang Ru's eyes lit up instantly. It was so delicious!
Seeing her reaction, Yu Qinghuan took another piece of cake and fed it to her mouth, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, "Try this one."
Yu Qinghuan was a little abnormal today. He kept feeding Sang Ru. Sang Ru didn't suspect anything and stuffed one piece after another into his mouth, sighing in his heart: The palace is the palace, the food and things to use are all the best.
She suddenly felt that it would be nice to live in the palace for a while, it would be nice to be with the girl!
"I'm pregnant."
Sang Ru: “…” Suddenly, she felt that the food in her hand was not very tasty.
Yu Qinghuan looked at her and smiled, "Both imperial doctors have seen it, and it's been a month."
Sang Ru suddenly couldn't eat anymore. The imperial physician took her pulse and said that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must have known the truth.
Realizing this, she silently put the pastry in her hand back and wiped her mouth with her sleeve.
It has only been a month and a half since we left Jiuchong Mountain. During this month, only the young master and the second master would come to stay overnight, so the child must be the young master's or the second master's.
What the girl meant was that she was now pregnant with another man's child, and was left in the palace by the Crown Prince who knew about it.
Sang Ru pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled reluctantly: "The young lady is finally pregnant, this is a good thing, I am happy for you!"
She knew that the girl had always wanted a child. The last time she was in Jiuchong Mountain, she felt lost for a long time after finding out it was a false pregnancy.
This time, two imperial doctors have examined it, so there must be nothing wrong.
As for being in the palace now, it’s all a small matter, it doesn’t matter, at most there will be two corpses and three lives.
Yu Qinghuan smiled and touched her belly. She was really looking forward to this child.
Sang Ru looked around and asked quietly, "Miss, what did the Crown Prince say?"
Yu Qinghuan's smile suddenly faded a little, "He said he wanted to marry me."
This is still Xiao Jinghe's territory. No one dares to stop him from doing what he wants. He won't listen to what I say, and I almost angered him today.
Sang Ru sighed inwardly. How could the girl marry the prince when she was pregnant? "Where's the child?"
Yu Qinghuan: "He said he could give birth to the baby and then send it away."
Sang Ru: Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince so generous?
Yu Qinghuan naturally didn't believe that Xiao Jinghe would tolerate the child in her belly. She was afraid that if she stayed in the palace for a few more days, the child in her belly would disappear without anyone noticing.
Sang Ru asked tentatively, "Miss, do you want to stay in the palace?"
Yu Qinghuan answered without hesitation: "Of course not."
Although everything in this palace is good and there are many servants, Xiao Jinghe will order people to deliver whatever she wants, but she is still clear-headed and knows that this place is not suitable for her and does not belong to her.
Thinking of this, she pulled Sang Ru and said, "I called you here so that you can pass a message to Mu Huaian or Xie Zhili to see if they can take me out."
Sang Ru: “…”
Then why did you bring me into the palace? Did you think I could climb walls and fly?
