Xue Jinruo heard the sound and looked at the head eunuch with confusion.

After all, His Majesty didn't say anything. Instead, he told her to stop. She couldn't help but feel a thump in her heart, but she still stopped for you as she was told.

"Your Majesty, it's not that the slaves are talkative, but there are many rumors inside and outside the imperial city. The Xue family is now convicted and imprisoned, but Xue Jinruo can still come to visit his parents..." When the eunuch chief said this, he paused and took a peek. A glance at His Majesty.

His Majesty's brows were furrowed deeply, but he did not say anything to stop him. He breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "Now there are rumors in the public that Xue Jinruo's eyesight is incurable. Your Majesty also wants the people in the public to give an explanation." Yes, it is a fact that the Xue family was convicted, and it is also a fact that Xue Jinruo can still visit."

His Majesty heard the words and thought to himself, since you know that you are talking too much, you should stop talking, but you must not open the pot at this time.

It was normal for him to have this idea. After all, he had long known about Xue Jinruo's frequent visits to Xue's house, but he just turned a blind eye and didn't care about anything.

After all, not only Xue Jinruo, but also other members of the Xue family are like this.

It was the words of the current head eunuch that pushed him to the edge of the cliff. If he didn't deal with it now, he would naturally be unjustifiable. After all, he couldn't stop everyone from talking.

"Xue Jinruo, do you have anything to say about the words of the chief eunuch?" His Majesty asked after careful consideration.

"That's what the chief eunuch said. I have nothing to argue with." Xue Jinruo responded with his hands down.

It was straightforward for her to act like this. After all, she knew that the emperor could turn a blind eye before, but now that he was roasted on the fire, there was naturally no way to protect him, even if he wanted to do so.

"Since you admit it, I won't say much more. However, when the Xue family and his wife were convicted, I did not agree with the criminal law of joint imprisonment. The blame for your parents' crimes should not also be blamed on you, but now some people are already complaining about it. This is quite a criticism. You will be grounded in the palace for a few days. At the same time, I will strengthen the supervision of the Xue family and his wife. This can be regarded as giving them an explanation. Do you agree?" Your Majesty is very polite. After all, we still need to rely on you now. She does things.

"Everything is in compliance with His Majesty's instructions." Xue Jinruo naturally responded directly.

After all, His Majesty's words seemed to be a rebuke, but in fact they were just looking for a legitimate reason to keep Xue Jinruo in the palace.

As the saying goes, flowers planted intentionally do not bloom, but willows planted unintentionally create shade. The chief eunuch wanted His Majesty to punish Xue Jinruo, but now that he has been punished, he feels strange. It feels like he has fulfilled Xue Jinruo's wish?

Thinking of this, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, is this..." Too gentle?

Before the chief eunuch finished speaking, he was interrupted by His Majesty with a wave of his hand: "I am a little tired today, so let's go here first, and we will talk about the rest later."

After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the back, without giving the chief eunuch a chance to say anything else.

The chief eunuch opened his mouth and said nothing. After all, he did dare to call Xue Jinruo, but he did not dare to call His Majesty. He could only watch His Majesty go away.

After Xue Jinruo came out of His Majesty's palace, the height of the sun had risen a bit, and the light became very dazzling. He unconsciously stretched his hands so that he could see some of the things in front of him clearly.

A young eunuch hurried over and took her to Concubine De's bedroom.

He walked in the lead, and Xue Jinruo followed behind.

Neither of them spoke a word, only the clatter of footsteps kept sounding.

Shaoqing, it was the little eunuch who spoke up to break the silence.

"Princess, don't blame the chief eunuch for speaking like that. His position is there, and many people are staring at him. He has a reason that he has to say." At the end, he sighed heavily, and at his age It doesn't quite match.

"Of course I understand. In addition to the steward, I also understand your majesty's good intentions." Xue Jinruo nodded and replied calmly.

The little eunuch said nothing and continued to lead the way.

Not long after, the two of them arrived at the gate of Concubine De's palace.

"Princess, please go in by yourself." The little eunuch bowed deeply and walked away.

Xue Jinruo heard Jade's comforting voice before she even entered the door.

"Empress, don't worry. Just eat a few bites first. Yesterday, the Empress ordered someone to invite the Princess Regent. It was just because the Princess was unwell that she didn't come over. I thought she would come today." Jade. There was a bowl of hot porridge in his hand, "Even if you don't want to eat it, you have to ask the little prince in your belly to eat it."

"Hmm..." Concubine De nodded weakly, and then took a sip of hot porridge.

But when she saw Xue Jinruo at the door, she immediately put down the hot porridge in her hand and struggled to get up.

The person grabbed Xue Jinruo's hand, with a bit of anxiety on his face. No matter how you looked at the ferocious face, it was difficult to connect this person with the decent concubine in the palace.

"Princess Regent, you are finally here. Please help me find out if someone is trying to harm me!?" She was flustered, suspicious, and even a little crazy.

Xue Jinruo couldn't help but frown, and looked at Jade aside with doubts in his eyes.

Jade pursed her lips, not daring to speak.

However, Xue Jinruo paused, took Concubine De's hand and sat down, smiling: "Concubine De, don't think too much, I'll show you first."

She felt her pulse as she spoke.

This beating was clearly a female fetus.

At this moment, Xue Jinruo couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is still in good health and there is nothing wrong with her. I will report to Your Majesty that I will be responsible for your health in the palace for the time being and not allow others to interfere."

"So, maybe you feel relieved?"

As soon as she said these words, the vigilance in Concubine De's eyes relaxed and even flickered.

Concubine De has always been thinking about the friendship between herself and Shen Xiangqin, and she is naturally happy now.

She smiled quickly: "That's it, that's really great."

"With your mother's kindness, I think the child in my belly will be born safely." She smiled, put on a mysterious look, and asked, "Princess, I I dare to ask, do you think the fetus in my belly is a boy or a girl?"

Her words made Xue Jinruo's face turn a little blue.

Xue Jinruo did not answer directly, but turned around and asked, "Does Concubine De want to be a prince or a princess?"
