Chapter 13 Rong Zhi forced his way into the jar
That night, the emperor, who had not entered the harem for seven days, finally entered the harem. As all the palaces were anxiously waiting, the emperor's carriage went to Concubine Liu in Yukang Palace again.
When the news came out, countless bowls, plates, and vases were broken in the palaces.
This of course includes the Chunxi Palace.
"Fox charmer, bitch!" Huipin threw the medicine bowl in her hand, not feeling it was not enough, and picked up the red-glazed vase on the low table and smashed it to the ground.
The broken pieces of the vase were scattered all over the floor, their bright red color giving off an ominous feeling.
Yunqin stared at the broken pieces of the vase at her feet and said, "Don't ask. If you ask, you will regret it."
In order to give Huipin the illusion that she was still competing with Rongzhi for favor, she deliberately showed up in front of Huipin.
If I had known that I would get into such a storm, I should have stayed in my room quietly!
"My queen, you have to take care of yourself!" Rong Zhi hurried forward to support her.
Rong Xin also held her other arm and advised: "Madam, if you get angry, it will be others who are proud!"
Huipin glanced at Rong Xin, grabbed her arm, her chest rose and fell violently twice, then she let out a long sigh and helped her sit down slowly, "You are right, I will never let her be proud!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, you must first take good care of yourself. As long as you give birth to a prince, we will see how long she can be proud!" Rong Zhi also echoed.
Huipin, who had just calmed down, shook off Rongzhi's arm upon hearing this and became angry again, "Don't mention my belly again!" She lowered her eyes to look at her slightly bulging belly with hatred in her eyes, "If he hadn't come at the wrong time, how could the emperor abandon me and favor that bastard!"
Hearing this, Yun Qin looked up at Huipin in surprise. Now she understood what Rong Xin meant when she said that Huipin was deeply in love with the emperor.
It’s basically the “deep” in “deep well ice”.
Rong Xin was beside Huipin, so naturally she felt a chill in her heart. Seeing Huipin staring at her belly, she was afraid that she would do something extreme, so she quickly reached out to protect it.
"Your Majesty, please don't be impulsive. This is your child with the Emperor!" she said anxiously.
Huipin raised her eyes and looked at her for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? This is my child..."
Rong Xin looked at the smile on her face, and the chill in her heart deepened. She immediately pretended to be embarrassed and backed away, "I was mistaken."
Huipin reached out and gently stroked her belly, her voice a little low, "Since this is also the emperor's child, why doesn't he come and take a look?"
Rong Zhi hurriedly said, "The Emperor is of course concerned about you, your pregnancy... and your health, otherwise why would Doctor Zhang Yu come every few days? Your Majesty, please don't think too much."
It was obvious that she was frightened just now, and she was more cautious when she spoke again.
Yunqin knew she shouldn't talk too much, but she had to say it!
She took a step forward and whispered, "Your Highness, you are the second person in the palace to bear a prince. I don't know how many eyes are staring at your belly. The emperor's move may be to protect you."
Although she was disheartened by Huipin's suspicion, she always understood that their lives depended on Huipin, and this pregnancy was even more related to Rongxin's future and destiny.
Rong Zhi is not fit for important tasks, but Rong Xin has shown her potential. Everyone can see that Huipin treats her differently these days. It is only a matter of time before she becomes a real head maid. It is not impossible for her to educate princes and princesses in the future.
We have overcome all the difficulties before, we can’t let it fail on Huipin!
"Are you telling the truth?" Huipin looked at her, her eyes bright and startling.
Yun Qin nodded immediately. "Rong Zhi also said it just now. If the emperor really didn't care about the queen, why would he let Doctor Zhang Yu take care of the queen so much. That day..."
She could guess what the emperor was thinking, but since the emperor had never told Huipin directly, how could she dare to say anything?
The emperor probably didn't say anything because of Huipin's personality. Everything is written on her face. If she knew that the emperor did this to protect her, she would probably never stay in Chunxi Palace again and would have to go out and show off.
"That day, when I went to invite the Emperor, didn't he come right away?"
Yun Qin still had some reservations and did not describe the scene of that day in detail. She just wanted to give Huipin a shot of cardiac stimulant, not to give her a shot of chicken blood.
Sure enough, when Huipin heard this, she immediately said excitedly: "Yes, you are right, the emperor must still be worried about me!"
Her chest rose and fell twice, her eyes darkened again, and her gaze was fixed on Yun Qin, "The baby in my belly is making a lot of noise, it must be missing my father. Go to Yukang Palace and invite the emperor!"
Yun Qin hung her hands and pinched her fingertips. She still didn't believe herself!
She showed no sign of panic, lowered her head and replied, "Yes, slave..."
"My queen!"
Yun Qin didn't raise her head, but her hands, which were pinching her fingertips, loosened. This was the sound she was waiting for.
She raised her eyes slightly and saw Rong Zhi standing in front of her.
"Your Majesty, isn't Yunqin still sick? Let me go and invite the Emperor." Rongzhi said to Huipin.
Ever since Yun Qin invited the emperor last time and seeing that Huipin treated her better and better, Rong Zhi had been secretly regretting it. She always wondered if it was she who invited the emperor, would the empress trust her more? Rong Xin and Yun Qin would still be under her feet, and the entire Chunxi Palace would have to listen to her!
So this time she will definitely not give Yun Qin the chance to shine!
Yun Qin's mind was as clear as a mirror, so how could he not guess what she was thinking.
She suppressed her raised lips and pretended to be angry and said, "Your Majesty wants me to go!" She raised her head and said to Huipin, "I will definitely fulfill your order!"
"Don't you see how sick you are? What if the emperor thinks you are unlucky and refuses to come?" Rong Zhi mocked her coldly and said to Huipin, "It is best for me to go."
The two of them started arguing in front of Huipin, and Rong Xin was anxious, but Huipin didn't get angry at all, and even had a smile on her face.
After they all looked at her, Huipin's eyes swept across the two of them, and finally said, "Then Rongzhi should go."
"Yes, Madam, I will definitely invite the Emperor over."
Huipin was smart this time and reminded her, "Don't forget to ask Xiao Dezi to invite the imperial physician."
After Rong Zhi left, Huipin looked at Yun Qin, whose face seemed to have turned a little paler, and said softly, "Look at your face. I feel sorry for you. The injury you suffered in Yukang Palace last time has not healed yet. I can't bear to let you go again."
As she spoke, she waved at Yunqin.
Yun Qin lowered her eyes and walked in front of her.
Huipin took off a white jade hairpin from her head and put it in her hand, "I know you are the most caring, but you have to take care of yourself, go and have a good rest."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Yun Qin held the slightly cool jade hairpin, her face full of gratitude. Her clear eyes seemed to be able to see through everything at a glance, without any hesitation.
Huipin looked into her eyes, and the smile on her face became even brighter. "Go ahead."
Yun Qin took two steps back, turned around and glanced at Rong Xin, smiled at her, and signaled her not to worry.
Seeing that she looked normal, Rong Xin's slightly lifted heart slowly calmed down.
