Chapter 2 The whole family is destined to be cannon fodder
The queen bit her lips hard, her eyes full of hatred. Queen Mother and Concubine Jiang, you two good aunt and niece are really vicious. I have never meant to hurt anyone, but you are determined to kill me.
The hatred rising in her heart instantly formed a powerful force.
The queen stood up straight, hugged her daughter in her arms, and ordered in a deep voice: "Today's events are strange, we can't just sit and wait for death. We should hurry back to the palace to avoid any more accidents."
Sang Qi and Ying Xue both showed doubtful eyes, but seeing that the queen was determined, they did not ask any more questions.
The queen asked Sang Qi to take out a smoke bomb and send a signal to the sky.
Three hours later, the empress and her group returned to the palace in a shabby carriage, exhausted.
In a moment, the news that the empress and the newborn princess had returned safely to the palace spread to the Qianqing Palace.
At this moment, the Great Xia Emperor Xia Zhengqi was pacing anxiously like an ant on a hot pot.
Hearing the good news, his tense heartstrings suddenly broke, and he suddenly felt weak and almost fell down. Fortunately, Debao helped him sit down.
After taking a break, Xia Zhengqi burst into tears of joy: "It's good that the queen is fine, and it's good that the child is fine."
Early the next morning, in Kunning Palace, Xia Ruonan was held in the queen's arms just after she finished feeding: "Mother's little baby, what a beautiful little girl."
[Ah, my queen mother is holding me and smiling, mother is so beautiful, I want to kiss mother so much! ]
This is the first time that Xia Ruonan has carefully observed the queen's appearance since she was born into this world.
The woman in front of her has a face that indicates peace and prosperity, and there is a heroic spirit between her eyebrows.
The queen's maiden name is Xiao Ruoyu, and she was originally the daughter of the tribal leader of the Xiaolin tribe in the northern border. She grew up on horseback since she was a child, and her physical foundation is very good.
After a night's rest, her face has recovered 80% of its color.
The queen heard her daughter's voice, her lips curled up, and her lips gently touched the little princess's forehead.
"Hey, little princess, are you awake? Let me hold you!" Everyone only heard a hearty male voice.
Everyone looked at the door and saw the emperor striding into the inner room, followed by the chief eunuch Debao.
The maids and nurses in the room hurriedly saluted the emperor.
Before the queen saluted, Xia Zhengqi said, "Your Majesty, please don't be polite." Then he took his daughter and held her in his arms.
The Queen smiled and said, "Your Majesty has been looking forward to having a daughter for more than ten years. Now you finally get your wish. Congratulations, Your Majesty!"
Xia Zhengqi looked at the Queen affectionately and said, "Ruoyu, you have suffered. I dare not even think about the critical situation yesterday."
"Your Majesty, everything is over. You can see that I am fine. This shows that our little princess is a lucky star." The Queen held the Emperor's hand and smiled.
"Ruoyu is right. Our daughter must be a lucky star." Xia Zhengqi looked at the little princess's face and smiled with tears in his eyes.
"Emperor, please give the little princess a name. The name has not been chosen yet." Debao suggested.
"Good, good, good!"
Xia Zhengqi pondered for a moment and said, "Born in a carriage, premature but safe and healthy, this is wonderful. You are my first daughter, so let's call you Miaoyuan, Xia Miaoyuan. Confer the title of Princess Anguo." Xia Zhengqi looked at his daughter's pink face with a doting look.
"I thank your majesty on behalf of the princess."
[Wow, Xia Miaoyuan, I like this name, it is a million times better than "Ruonan" in the previous life! The emperor dad is awesome!]
The smile on Xia Zhengqi's face froze instantly. What sound?
He quietly observed the queen, eunuchs, and palace maids, and found that everyone looked normal. Could it be that I was frightened yesterday and heard something?
Xia Zhengqi pretended to be nothing and continued to announce: "I will reward the Queen with a string of oriental pearls, a pair of jade ruyi, one hundred taels of gold, and a pair of three-foot red corals. I will also add six palace maids and six eunuchs to the Queen's palace to look after the little princess."
He raised his eyes and continued to order: "Debao, ask the Sizhenfang whether the set of gold baby jewelry I ordered them to make half a year ago is finished? Ask them to add a gold necklace and a gold and jade longevity lock. For the jade, ask them to choose a piece of fine mutton-fat jade from the treasury. I will also make a set of gemstone jewelry for the princess. I will also reward the princess with a bucket of pearls for her to use as a surprise."
[Wow! Pure natural pearls! A full set of gold jewelry! There are also top-grade mutton-fat jade longevity locks! And gemstones! Roar, roar, roar, I'm rich, I'm rich. Long live the emperor!]
Xia Miaoyuan danced with joy, but she was just a baby and could only wave her hands as much as she could.
He heard it again, really heard it again, and he was sure that it was the voice coming from his daughter. Xia Zhengqi panicked instantly.
Oh, it's the voice of the heart, the voice of my daughter. He suddenly realized.
Xia Zhengqi glanced at the queen and saw that she looked normal. He couldn't help but feel secretly happy in his heart: Hahaha, it seems that I am the only one who can hear it. I am worthy of being the true dragon emperor. I can actually hear the voice of my daughter. This is destiny.
"My Miaoyuan is so beautiful. Look at her eyebrows and eyes, she looks like me, and her lips are like the empress. God has been kind to me, giving me such a lovely princess." Xia Zhengqi pretended to be calm. "
Your Majesty prays for the birth of a princess every year in the harem. Your Majesty's sincerity must have moved the heavens." Debao hurried to flatter him.
The palace maids and eunuchs also echoed him.
"I have been married for 19 years and gave birth to 8 princes in a row. Finally, I gave birth to a princess. It's really not easy. My Miaoyuan, grow up quickly, I will give you the best."
[Alas, such a good emperor father, but it's a pity that he was killed by someone 5 years later. The body was kept for more than a year and it became smelly before it was buried. ]
What? Killed by someone 5 years later?
Xia Zhengqi widened his eyes in shock.
I am only 36 years old this year.
[In the book, my mother and I should have gotten married yesterday. Although the disaster yesterday has passed, what about 5 years later? The emperor father was poisoned, and within a month, the prince brother was shot through the heart with random arrows, and the second brother was tortured to death in the imperial prison. By that time, how can my mother and I survive?
I, the prince, and the second prince were all killed? ! Xia Zhengqi couldn't help but shudder.
The queen was heartbroken after hearing this, but she still forced a smile.
Just when Xia Zhengqi wanted to hear more, the eunuch ran in and reported: "The Queen Mother is here! Concubine Jiang is here!"
There was the sound of pearl curtains, and two women in palace dresses walked in.
"Your son pays his respects to the Queen Mother!"
"Your concubines pay their respects to the Empress Dowager!"
The Emperor and Empress saluted hurriedly.
The younger woman also saluted hurriedly to the Emperor and Empress: "Your concubines pay their respects to Your Majesty and the Empress!"
After the ceremony, the older woman spoke first: "Qi Qiu and I heard that the Empress was very fierce yesterday, which scared us. Buddha bless, my good granddaughter is finally born safely! Let me see her." After saying that, she walked to the emperor to see the little princess.
The "Qi Qiu" mentioned by the Empress Dowager is Concubine Jiang in the book. The two are in the relationship of aunt and niece.
As soon as the Empress Dowager finished speaking, Concubine Jiang immediately joined in: "Your concubine said it, sister is the Empress, so you are blessed. Even if you encounter danger, you will be able to turn it into safety."
[Wow, the villain in the book is here. 】Xia Miaoyuan kicked her feet excitedly and tried to turn her face to the outside, as if she was ready to eat melons.
The Empress Dowager and Concubine Jiang are the villains? Xia Zhengqi's heart skipped a beat.
