Chapter 270 The prince is clearly slapping her in the face!
Before entering the palace, Duan Liangdi was taught about this by her mother. She knew that she would have a bloody discharge during the first marriage.
As soon as she saw the two spots of blood, she knew that this was the evidence left by her serving the prince last night.
Her mood suddenly became high.
Originally she thought that the prince didn't like her, but now it seems that is not the case. The prince still loves her very much, otherwise why would he call her to sleep with him so late?
And he helped her put her clothes on neatly afterwards.
She was so lucky to have found such a thoughtful and considerate man.
Then she thought of the beautiful dream she had last night.
Perhaps that dream was a sign that she would become the mother of the country in the future.
Yingxiang came in with two young palace maids and helped Duan Liangdi change her clothes and wash up.
Duan Liangdi asked curiously, "Where is the prince?"
Yingxiang replied, "Your Highness left for court before daybreak."
"Why didn't you wake me up?"
Yingxiang smiled and said, "It was His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who didn't let me wake you up. He said you were exhausted last night and asked you to rest for a while."
When Duan Liangdi heard this, she felt sweet in her heart, and at the same time, a little indescribable pride.
You see, the prince really likes her and doesn't want her to get up early.
At this time, Mo Hua and a daily record officer walked in.
The two men first bowed to Duan Liangdi, then Mo Hua walked to the couch and saw the red bloodstains on it.
She whispered a few words to the recorder without changing her expression.
The daily record officer immediately recorded Duan Liangdi's presence in the prince's bed last night in the prince's daily record book.
In order to ensure the purity of the royal bloodline, everyone from the emperor to the princes are accompanied by a recorder.
These record officials were specifically responsible for recording the daily lives of their masters, including which concubines their masters visited at night.
After helping Duan Liangdi finish washing up, Mo Hua stepped forward and asked respectfully.
"My lady, do you want to have breakfast here? Or do you want to go back to Ningwu Garden for breakfast?"
Duan Liangdi said modestly, "I will go back to Ningwu Garden to have dinner."
As soon as she returned to Ningwu Garden, the prince's reward came soon after.
Looking at the box full of gold and silver jewelry in front of her, Duan Liangdi was so happy that her whole face was radiant.
Yingxiang and a group of palace maids and eunuchs congratulated Duan Liangdi on winning the prince's favor.
Ningwu Garden was filled with joy.
…
Although the prince said not to go to the Pepper Palace often, Qin Xiya still went to the Pepper Palace today to pay her respects to Queen Qin.
Queen Qin asked, "Did the prince come to see you yesterday?"
Qin Xiya suppressed the bitterness in her heart and said with a smile: "The prince came to Xiyun Palace last night."
Queen Qin didn't know that the prince just sat for a while and then left. She thought that the prince stayed in Xiyun Palace last night and was quite satisfied.
"That's great. You must seize the opportunity and give birth to a child for the Crown Prince as soon as possible. With a child, your position as Crown Princess will be more secure."
Qin Xiya had no words to express her suffering, so she could only nod and say, "I will remember your aunt's teachings."
Queen Qin asked again, "Have you used the spices given to you?"
Qin Xiya: “Yes.”
"That's good. I specially had that spice mixed. It should be very effective. You can use it without worry. If you run out, you can come to me for more."
Qin Xiya thought of what the prince said last night, and felt more and more uncomfortable. No matter how many spices she had, she couldn't keep a man who didn't love her.
She replied softly, "Thank you, Auntie. I understand."
Queen Qin: "The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming in a few days. There will be a family banquet in the palace. You can take this opportunity to show off your talents so that the prince will be more fond of you."
"Yes."
When Qin Xiya returned to the East Palace, Nanny Sun immediately stepped forward to greet her, and then spoke in a low voice.
"I have already sent someone to inquire. After His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left Xiyun Palace last night, he went straight back to Linde Palace."
Qin Xiya felt a little relieved when she heard this.
Even if she didn't succeed in sleeping with him last night, at least she didn't let other women take advantage of her.
Unexpectedly, Nanny Sun said another sentence right after that.
"The prince summoned Duan Liangdi to sleep with him at midnight last night."
Qin Xiya’s face froze.
She asked in a trembling voice, "Is this true?"
Nanny Sun glanced at her slightly pale face and felt sorry for her, but she still answered truthfully.
"Last night, Duan Liang Di was summoned to the Linde Hall to serve as a concubine, and then she stayed there until dawn today. Afterwards, the prince's reward was sent to Ningwu Garden. Duan Liang Di was favored, and now the people in Ningwu Garden are very proud."
Qin Xiya felt very upset.
The prince clearly arrived at Xiyun Palace last night, but suddenly left and then summoned Duan Liangdi to sleep with him.
The prince is clearly slapping her in the face!
Qin Xiya had never suffered such humiliation since she was a child.
Seeing her unhappy expression, Nanny Sun comforted her, "Don't be sad, young lady. The prince may not really like Duan Liangdi."
Qin Xiya was slightly startled: "Why do you think so?"
"My dear, have you forgotten? Last night you lit the incense sent by the Queen. That kind of incense has the effect of aphrodisiac. The Crown Prince is at the age of full of vigor and vitality. After smelling the incense, he will definitely have a reaction. The Crown Prince must have summoned Duan Liangdi to sleep with him temporarily in order to relieve his internal heat. Otherwise, with the Crown Prince's cold personality, why would he suddenly summon someone to sleep with him in the middle of the night? He looked so hasty, it was obviously a spur of the moment decision."
After hearing Nanny Sun's analysis, Qin Xiya gradually calmed down.
It seems that Duan Liangdi got a good deal and that's why she became favored.
Thinking of this, Qin Xiya smiled coldly: "Duan Liangdi is really lucky, but I don't know how long her good luck can last?"
Inside Qingge Palace.
Xiao Xixi is having breakfast.
Baoqin reminded, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince hasn't come to our Qingge Palace for several days. Do you want to go see His Highness?"
Xiao Xixi didn't want to go out, but she thought of what the prince said to her that night.
His mood was not right at the time, as if he had reached some extreme and was in danger of falling into empty space at any time.
Although Xiao Xixi temporarily calmed his emotions with a magic bag, it was only a temporary solution and not a permanent cure.
She was afraid that the prince would really lose his temper and do something stupid.
After hesitating for a while, she decided to go and see the prince's current condition.
Baoqin was very surprised to see Concubine Xiao nodded in agreement.
Based on Baoqin's understanding of Concubine Xiao, she should have refused. After all, she was a very inactive person and going out was a very troublesome thing for her.
I didn't expect that she would agree to visit the prince so readily today.
Baoqin was both surprised and happy.
She felt relieved that her silly daughter had finally grown up.
"I will prepare some cakes right away. You can send them to the prince to taste later."
Xiao Xixi hurriedly said, "Remember to get more!"
Baoqin agreed.
