Chapter 261 Of course I know,
"There have been so many miscarriages in the palace. Although Wen Xiaoyi entered the palace with Empress Jing Xiuyi and is considered to have experience, she is just Xiaoyi. She has no one to rely on at home. It would be better to keep this pregnancy low-key, but if it is made so grand, I am afraid that she will not be pregnant long." said Lady Rong.
"That's the truth." Yao Baolin nodded.
"Empress Kangde has always acted virtuous. If she is willing to protect Wen Xiaoyi, then she will have a good chance of winning. But if she doesn't protect her..." Shen Chuliu said with some amusement: "Right now, it looks like she is protecting her, but things will eventually turn into the opposite when they reach the extreme."
"If Wen Xiaoyi gave birth to a prince, it would definitely not be possible for Concubine Kangde to raise him. Whether he was given to someone else or raised in Ruiqing Palace, it would not be good for her. Besides, if Wen Xiaoyi had her own child, how could she still be loyal?" Concubine Rong analyzed.
"That's not right. You know, Meng Baolin is in this state. Regardless of whether it has anything to do with Wen Xiaoyi, I'm afraid that Concubine Kangde will also be suspicious. Do you still remember how she followed him to the palace?"
Shen Chuliu reminded.
That was the result of her 'chance encounter' with the emperor.
If Concubine Kangde had been willing to recommend him, this wouldn't have happened.
"Tsk. Even though there are endless fights in the palace, it's rare that just the Leshou Palace can be so lively." Yao Baolin said.
"You don't know her yet. When she was still in the palace, Concubine Feng was busy fighting with the Empress, and Concubine Yi also entered the palace. There were also the favored Li and Ning. At that time, she was able to get pregnant and give birth to a child. How could she be incompetent? It's just that her family background is not as good as Feng's..."
Concubine Rong knew that she had said something wrong, so she stopped talking and said, "You all know it, so I won't say it directly. After all, she is not as good as the eldest prince, so she has been dormant since the death of the eldest prince. Empress Jing Xiuyi has been in the palace for two years. Have you listened to Concubine Liu? She is so low-key that it's as if she doesn't exist. But what happens once she becomes Concubine Kangde?" Concubine Rong and Yao Baolin both came from the mansion.
No one would underestimate Concubine Kangde.
Shen Chuliu nodded: "That's right."
"And this Wen Xiaoyi is actually the same type as her! They are both very scheming, but they don't show it on their faces. It's lucky that one of these two people is too low in rank, otherwise it would be a big deal."
Shen Chuliu laughed: "Oh, I really feel that there are all kinds of people in our harem. From this point of view, the late Concubine Yi was really a pure and kind person." Just stupid.
She is actually a very simple woman.
The three of them nodded, confirming it.
Time passed quickly while we were chatting, and before we had said much, it was time for dinner.
Miss Rong really took some effort. The lunch was very sumptuous and the plum wine was very fragrant.
Shen Chuliu and Yao Baolin both enjoyed themselves very much. After eating, they each took a jar of wine back home.
After seeing them off, Miss Rong was a little tipsy and waved her hand to ask someone to wait for her to take a nap.
"Beauty, I think Empress Jing Xiuyi also understands your reminder." Amber said as she helped her lie down.
"Why do I need to remind her? She knows what I suspect. I just get along well with her and we just want to have fun together." After saying this, Lady Rong lay down and quickly fell asleep.
Compared to outsiders, the parties involved are always the most uncomfortable.
Wen Xiaoyi has been suppressing her anger since her pregnancy was revealed yesterday. Concubine Kangde was too considerate, making her feel very uncomfortable.
Now, she clenched her hands gently and tried her best to think of a solution.
She didn't have to doubt it at all. The reason Concubine Kangde hadn't taken action yet was simply because she wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife.
After all, if you can ask others to do it, you don't have to get involved yourself.
But she couldn't just sit there and wait for death.
"Tell me, if I ask the Emperor or the Empress for help, which one will be more beneficial to me?" Wen Xiaoyi asked softly.
Xingzhi and Xingye were stunned. Xingzhi thought for a moment and said, "I think if you really have to ask, it's better to ask the emperor. The emperor will definitely not be happy to see you begging others."
"I think so too." Wen Xiaoyi touched her belly: "But how should I say it?"
"This... no matter how we beg, we will offend Concubine Kangde." Xing Ye sighed: "Although she has bad intentions, it is not good for us to offend her."
"I can't care about so many things. If I can't keep this baby, I'm afraid I won't be able to have children in the future. My lifelong hope is all here." Wen Xiaoyi suddenly stood up: "Let's go, let's go to Taiji Palace, I'll go and ask to see the emperor."
Xingzhi and Xingye nodded and helped her out the door.
At Taiji Palace, Chusi came in and said that Wen Xiaoyi had arrived. Qi Yixiu hummed, "What's the matter?"
"Your Majesty, Wen Xiaoyi didn't say anything, and I can't guess." Chusi was really not sure.
This person doesn't usually come here.
"Ask her in." Qi Yixiu didn't like Wen Xiaoyi very much, but he didn't have any bad feelings towards her.
Soon, Wen Xiaoyi came in to pay her respects, bit her lip and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I have something to ask of you."
"My beloved concubine, what are you doing? Get up and answer." Qi Yixiu seemed quite interested.
"Yes, your concubine..." Wen Xiaoyi bowed her head: "Please ask the emperor to let me move out and live in a pavilion by myself."
"Oh? What? I remember that you moved there by yourself. Is Leshou Palace not good? Or is Concubine Kangde not good?" Qi Yixiu raised his eyebrows.
"That's not what I meant." Wen Xiaoyi knelt down again: "Your Majesty, I just... just..."
"I am incompetent. I wanted to wait until the third month to get pregnant. I had a miscarriage last time and was extremely heartbroken. I thought I would never get pregnant again in this life. Now God has blessed me to be pregnant with the emperor's child again. I am afraid that something bad will happen again, so... I beg the emperor to help me this time."
"Wen Xiaoyi, aren't you afraid that I will think too much when you say this? Is it that Concubine Kangde is unwilling to protect you? Or do you want to say that Concubine Kangde wants to harm you?" Qi Yixiu said indifferently, without any change in his expression.
"I'm not saying that Your Majesty is wrong. It's just... I wanted to go to the temporary palace before, but I didn't inform Your Majesty Kangde beforehand. Your Majesty is a generous person, she just said a few words to me and let it go, but I was thinking that there are too many people in Leshou Palace after all. The Third Prince is still young, so it's possible that Your Majesty didn't take me into consideration..."
"Where do you want to live?" Qi Yixiu asked.
"I have no objection. Any place is fine. I just want to live alone." Wen Xiaoyi said happily.
"Since my beloved concubine has asked so, I cannot ignore it. Let's move to Yinyue Pavilion. I remember that Concubine Kangde also lived here, so you two can be considered to have been together for a while." Qi Yixiu said.
"I thank the emperor for his grace. I will take good care of my pregnancy and will never let any problems occur with the royal heir again." Wen Xiaoyi said.
"Okay, my beloved concubine is sensible. I will remember it. Go." Qi Yixiu waved his hand.
Qi Yixiu watched her go out, without much emotion in his heart.
Of course he knew that Concubine Kangde was not a truly kind person.
