Huo Qiyoushang

"Hey, rare guest, don't let the place where we stay here spoil you!" A sharp-tongued little maid in the kitchen looked at Lian'er beside the stove with a strange voice.

"Hey, what are you talking about!" The older cook tugged at her dress.

"What's the matter, what I said is wrong!" The little maid flicked her sleeves, "Come on, I'll go out and stay with such a precious person - I can't bear it, you take it easy!" Angrily rolled his eyes at Lian'er, picked up the clear porridge on the stove and left quickly.

The cook at the side was a little embarrassed, she laughed a few times, and said to Lian'er: "This girl is so ignorant, you can't take it to heart."

Lian'er didn't say a word from the beginning to the end, but just nodded. It's not a day or two that these maids and servants don't like her. It's so ugly to say it in front of her face and scold her behind her back, let alone now Everyone guessed that the concubine was pregnant, so naturally there was no need to shy away from being a housemaid like me, after all, I was nothing.

"Lian'er knows, it doesn't matter." After finishing speaking, he lowered his head and took out some dried red dates from the basket in his hand. "I heard that Aunt Yuan likes to eat some dates on weekdays. It's not just that I asked someone to buy some dried red dates. Red dates, I can’t eat much on weekdays, so I thought of my aunt.”

Aunt Yuan looked at the large and even grains of the dried dates in the basket, and she couldn't help being moved. In Northern Qi, these dried red dates are rare and good things. You can rely on them to warm up your body and replenish blood on weekdays. "This dried red dates are a rare thing." , now is such a season again, it must cost a lot of money." After speaking, he reached out to take a few and tasted them, it was really sweet.

"It's fine if my aunt likes it, and nothing else matters." Lian'er could see Aunt Yuan's careful thinking, so she added fuel to the flames: "Does my aunt and Lian'er still need to divide like this? I think when Lian'er first arrived at the palace, Back then I didn’t have my aunt to take care of me when I was eating, but now a little dried red dates are nothing, if my aunt still sees me, it will be really embarrassing.”

Aunt Yuan wanted this thing at first, but now that Lianer said it like this, it would be hypocritical to push it out, so she took the basket generously without thinking, "Then thank you Lianer for being considerate, this person is old. It's getting older, and the weather in Northern Qi is very cold, so it's really impossible not to eat some red dates on weekdays."

Lian Er echoed and smiled, but then lowered her head again, and sighed.

"What's the matter? Tell my aunt what's the matter."

When Lian'er was asked by Aunt Yuan, she immediately burst into tears.

Seeing this, Aunt Yuan hurriedly pulled her aside, and wiped her tears with her hand, "Don't cry, don't cry, but what wronged you? Did those maids outside say something again?"

"No." Lian'er shook her head, "It's all Lian'er's fault, if she hadn't offended the concubine, she wouldn't be in such a situation now."

While wiping her tears, Lian'er talked about how she was slapped by Li Jieyou that day.

"Oh, you child is really confused." After hearing this, Aunt Yuan couldn't help but blame her a few words.

"Lian'er already knew that she was wrong, and now the princess is pregnant again, if she really can't tolerate herself, how can Lian'er live." Before the words fell, the eyeballs fell down again, "Lian'er just wants a shelter So, I don’t dare to hope for the rest.” After speaking, he glanced at Aunt Yuan from the corner of his eye.

Aunt Yuan couldn't bear to look at Lianer's pear blossoms with rain, and thoughtfully said: "Compared to the princess, she is not such a fussy person, how can a hero like the prince be empty, I will see How about this?" Aunt Yuan turned around and opened a steamer before she finished speaking, "This is Nanchu's thousand cakes, which the princess likes to eat, so you can send this to the princess later, just to pay for the princess. Sin believes that she won't care too much about you."

Lian'er's voice was still crying, she nodded, "Well, I'm sorry, Aunt Yuan."

Carrying a few pieces of cakes, he hurriedly walked towards the main room with lotus steps. Although the tears on his face had disappeared, his eyes were still red. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he had just cried.

Lian'er stood in front of the door of the wing room, looked down at the cake in her hand, took a deep breath, and just about to knock on the door, she heard a voice from inside, listening to the sound, it should be Qing Ya say.

"Princess, are you feeling better?" Qing Ya asked the kitchen to make some porridge and brought them over. It's been a whole day, and Li Jieyou still can't eat anything. "Eat some at least." The little girl was obviously in a hurry, and she couldn't get her tongue out of her mouth.

"Don't worry, Bengong's appetite has always been bad. It's not like it didn't happen when I was in Nanchu. Just take a rest and get some sleep."

"Princess, princess." Qing Ya twisted her belt, her facial features were all crowded together, and said cowardly: "You, you shouldn't, don't you have it?"

"What's wrong?" Li Jieyou didn't understand what she said, on the contrary, she was a little strange, this girl is usually in a hurry, why is she spitting up today.

"That's right, that's the one!" Qing Ya's tongue was almost tied together, her two hands were touching her stomach, her eyes were still flickering at Li Jieyou.

With words and body, Li Jieyou understood no matter how much he didn't understand, "You girl, what nonsense are you talking about!"

"Why are you slaves talking nonsense? It has spread outside, and everyone is talking about you. You must have it."

Li Jieyou looked at Qing Ya's serious look, shook his head helplessly, and said with a smile: "You, everything is fine, it's just this carefree temperament, you believe what people say?"

Qing Ya scratched her head, but still refused to let her go, "I'd better invite a doctor to come over, just in case, if there is one, that would be better! This matter can't be careless!"

Li Jieyou sighed, "I don't have anything to hide from you until now. From the current point of view, it is absolutely impossible for me to be pregnant."

"Why?"

"My lord and I haven't consummated our marriage yet, so where do we start when we are pregnant?"

"what!"

Not only Qing Ya was shocked by these words, but also Lian Er outside the door.Originally, she thought that the matter of pregnancy would be inseparable, but she didn't expect it to be so far away. She and the prince have nothing for so many days.Lian'er couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief in her heart, but at the same time she felt a little more contemptuous, thinking to herself, so what if you are a princess, the prince won't even touch you!It's better than I'm better than you!Thinking of this, Lian'er's previous worries and fears were all gone, and there was still some smile on the corner of her mouth, she raised her head calmly, reached out and knocked on the bright red door in front of her.

"Why are you here?" Qing Ya opened the door to see Lian'er, her expression immediately fell.

"Who is it?" Li Jieyou's voice came from inside.

Just as Qingya wanted to report, Lian'er took her a step ahead, "It's me, Lian'er."

Li Jieyou didn't expect her to come, but since the person came, he couldn't see her, so he asked Qing Ya to lead her in.

"Slave maid greets the princess."

"Exemption."

Lian'er bowed her body, and took out the food box in her hand, "I heard that the princess is in poor health today, I wonder if she is better? The servant made some cakes from the kitchen. Aunt Yuan said that the princess liked to eat it when she was in her hometown. .”

Qing Ya frowned and rolled her eyes in displeasure, "Who knows what you planted in it, don't come here to harm others."

Lian'er shook her hand, looked down at the food box, and froze there.

Then Li Jieyou looked up at Qingya, then opened the food box, it was really a thousand cakes, if you put it on weekdays, you would definitely eat some, but forget it today, as soon as Li Jieyou smelled the sweet taste The smell, for a while, nausea appeared in the chest again.

"Princess, are you alright!" Seeing this, Qing Ya immediately pushed the food box aside, glaring at Lian'er viciously, "What are you trying to do!"

Lian'er also had a frightened expression on her face, "I, I don't have it, it was just taken out of the kitchen, how could there be a problem!"

"you--"

Qingya wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Li Jieyou, "It's none of Lian'er's business, it's my own problem." Suppressing the nausea in her chest, she turned her head to look at Lian'er, "I'm afraid this cake today is a problem for this palace. I can't eat it anymore, but I appreciate your kindness, the past is over, I am not a fussy person, so you don't have to worry about it, after all, taking good care of the prince is the most important thing."

Lian'er looked grateful and looked like a princess, her eyes were red again, and she kept bowing, "Thank you, my lord, for your generosity."

"I'll take the cake, it's getting late, and I'm a little tired, so I won't keep you any longer." After finishing speaking, he retched again.

"Yi Numaid looks like this is not good. It's been a day and it's not getting better. If you drag it on, it won't be serious." Lian'er looked at Li Jieyou's complexion a little pale, "All the doctors in Tongji Hall are experts in pulse diagnosis. Disgusted, servants will invite people over tomorrow." After speaking, she turned her head and glanced at Qing Ya, "Princess's complexion is a little bad."

"It doesn't need to be so troublesome, my palace is not that expensive."

But this time it was Qing Ya's turn to be unhappy, Lian'er didn't say she didn't think so, the princess's face was really pale when Lian'er said so.

"Princess, don't be so strong, this master Qing Ya has done it, and I will go with Lian'er to invite the doctor back tomorrow!"

Li Jieyou was also feeling very uncomfortable, seeing these two people insisting so much, he had no choice but to give up, nodded and said: "That's fine."

After sending Lian'er away, Qing Ya hurriedly helped Li Jieyou to the bed, turned her head and poured out the thousand cakes in the food box, still muttering, even if this cake is okay, she will never Let the princess eat.

Lian'er lit a lamp in the wing room, and kept scratching her fingers on the table. She thought of a person——Yu Zhong.

"Why are the lights still on so late?" The door creaked and was pushed open.

"The slaves and servants see the prince."

Huo Yunsi had just come out of the palace, and he was extremely exhausted, so he lay down on the bed all at once, "Come and squeeze my head, this side of my head is hurting for some reason today."

"Yes, my lord." As well-behaved as Lian'er, she first took off the short boots on Huo Yunsi's feet, then took off her robe, and then reached for the belt around her waist.

"What are you doing!" Huo Yunsi opened his eyes suddenly, and pressed the little hand on his waist.

Lian'er was taken aback by this sudden shout.

Huo Yunsi pulled up Lian'er's hand and put it on his head, "Just pinch it like this, I have a headache."

"Yes." Lian'er gradually kneaded her hands, and seeing Huo Yunsi closed her eyes comfortably, she said, "Today, this servant went to see the princess."

"You went to see her?"

"The servant wants to make amends for what happened last time, and the princess is pregnant again now, if the trouble is too stiff—"

"Pregnant?!" Huo Yunsi frowned before she finished speaking, "Who said that?"

"As everyone said, the concubine's chest has nausea recently, and it hasn't recovered after a day. These are symptoms that only pregnant women have."

Huo Yunsi sat up at once, and brushed his little hand off his face, looking very angry.

Seeing Huo Yunsi like this, Lian'er felt even more certain that she and Li Jieyou did not consummate their marriage.

"My servant is thinking about going to Tongji Hall tomorrow to invite Langzhong to come and have a look. If she is really pregnant, it will be a great joy."

"Happy event?" Huo Yunsi let out a disdain from his nose, "Then I will see tomorrow how happy it is!" After all, regardless of the person on the bed, he pushed open the door and left without even closing it. up.

Lian'er looked at Huo Yunsi who left angrily, and felt a sense of revenge in her heart. She could only blame Huo Yunsi for only one person. Since I can't lose, others must lose.
