The rebirth of the prince and his wife

Ever since the dispute over the heir apparent, the four adult princes have turned against each other, there has been no happy event in the palace for a long time, and now that Ding Zhaoyi is pregnant, she is naturally pushed to the forefront in an instant, not to mention that Ding Zhaoyi is a favorite concubine and is extremely popular with the emperor. Sincerely, now that she is pregnant with a dragon descendant, Emperor Desheng is absolutely delighted. Not only did he solemnly choose the title to be a pure concubine, but he also rewarded him constantly all day long. He also promised that when the child is born in the future, he will Jin was conferred the title of Concubine Chun, on par with Concubine Li, and a new palace was built for her. For a while, the name of Concubine Ding Chun was known to everyone in Chang'an City.

Du Rong'er, who just stood at the center of the situation and enjoyed all the glory and favor, was not happy at all.

"Your Majesty didn't sleep well last night, and today's lunch was not delicious, and she looked a lot haggard. If the food is not delicious, the servant will ask someone to cook it again. At least eat some more, otherwise the baby in the stomach The prince has to go hungry too." The one who spoke was Du Rong'er's confidant maid, who was carefully persuading her to eat.

But Du Rong'er was still looking sleepy, she just reached out to bring the food over, took a few bites and then put it down: "Move all, I don't have any appetite"

"Your Majesty..." The palace maid was anxious, and sent out all the servants on the left and right. After closing the door, she said with concern: "The maidservant came to Chang'an from the Ding family and followed her to Chang'an. She saw her rise to the top step by step. Now Being pregnant again, it should be the most prosperous time, but why has the empress been unhappy since she found out that she is pregnant?"

"In this palace, anyone who deserves to be pampered will have a pregnancy sooner or later, but you go and see how many will be born." Du Rong'er got up, she has now become a pure concubine, although she has not yet been canonized However, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has already given it to her according to the concubine's position, and all the food and clothing in Yawenyuan are the best. She quietly looked around at the magnificence of Yawenyuan, and felt more and more uneasy.

Hearing her words, the court lady also changed color in horror, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty thinks that someone will harm you and the little prince..."

"Now there are only three adult princes left, and I vaguely feel that the emperor has been extremely displeased with the remaining three princes since the death of the second prince. If my child is really a boy, it will be at the peak of the emperor's age. , if you really talk about the prince in the future, do you think the queen can let me go? She lost her two sons, and now she is only determined to assist the third prince to succeed to the throne. I am afraid that the third prince will not let me go The palace, what's more terrible is..." Du Rong'er said with a trembling voice: "What's more terrible is that there is a King Wen here, and this palace absolutely does not want to be born in a battle for succession."

"Your Majesty is overthinking..." The court lady didn't know the pros and cons of it, but instead said: "Then Princess Wen has a relationship with your Empress since childhood, and where there is such a mother and concubine, I don't want my son to inherit the throne and become famous. Woolen cloth?"

Du Rong'er shook her head and sneered: "Inheriting the great order...becoming famous... You have seen what happened to the second prince, and you should know that there are some things, as long as you have a life to fight for, and you don't have a life to enjoy, you are like King Wen." Characters, didn’t they also come from three disasters and eight disasters, let alone this palace.”

Du Rong'er just lay on the soft couch, thinking deeply, this child came at the wrong time, although now she is pregnant with dragon descendants and is favored by the emperor, and she has been raised as a concubine, it seems that the fire is cooking oil, the kindness of the heavenly family She has benefited endlessly, but she doesn't know that if this child is really a boy, the road ahead will be extremely difficult. She is not the daughter of the Ding family. She is alone in Chang'an and has no one to rely on. There is only Gu Youning. This is the friendship since childhood, and occasionally she was used to say a few words in front of the emperor. If she had a rift with Gu Youning and Prince Wen's mansion because she gave birth to a prince, then it would be a big disaster.

She wanted to abort the fetus by herself, but she couldn't do it because of her own flesh and blood.

For a while, Du Rong'er was in a dilemma, and a few days later, it was the day of canonization.

Because she was pregnant, all the tedious matters of the canonization ceremony were gone. Although it was not very grand, but there were many rewards, and after the ceremony was completed, the evening family banquet was scheduled to be held in Qionghua Palace. All relatives are going to be there, so Gu Youning and Chu Yu naturally have to go too.

The palace banquet in the evening is a family banquet, and there is no need to wear court clothes, so Gu Youning wore a lotus-colored robe embroidered with cloud and water patterns at the hem, a belt with rubies embedded around the waist, and a light gray embroidered robe with dark patterns on the outside. She wears a shirt and wears an extremely exquisite collar around her neck.

Because of the custom of adults wearing collars on boys in Chang’an City for some reason, Chu Yu also asked someone to make a gold collar for Gu Youning with Baifu engraved on it, and a beautiful safety buckle on it Well, although Gu Youning is married and has a family, but he is not as old as a weak crown, so it doesn't matter if he brings her with him.

However, Gu Youning tore off the collar with some reluctance, and said, "These are for children. I'm already so old, what are you doing with the collar?"

"Nonsense, you haven't reached the weak crown yet, so why can't you wear it?" Chu Yu took it over, put it on again, and said, "Today's palace banquet is full of clan members who are within five clothes, and besides, there is a queen who is watching us covetously." , you bring this, if there are some places where you can’t speak, it can also be because you are only a child, and there are speechless words.”

"Why don't you trust me? I have seen this palace banquet several times with you. It's nothing more than eating there and not talking."

"It's not that I don't trust you. After all, you are not good at dealing with court affairs. I'm just in case." Chu Yu pinched his face with a smile, then turned to Cheng Gui and said, "The congratulatory gifts for Concubine Chun are all ready. ?"

"It's been prepared a long time ago, and I'm just waiting for the lord to show me." Cheng Gui smiled apologetically, and said that a few maidservants came in with a box carved with pear blossom wood carved with wild geese flying high. When they opened it, they found a pair of extremely moist white jade. Carving a double-layer vase for spring, summer, autumn and winter does not need to be delicate, but the workmanship alone shows its priceless value.

Gu Youning glanced at it, and was shocked at the time: "I don't know when I got this, it's so beautiful."

"If you like it, there are plenty in the storeroom." Chu Yu looked at the pair of hollowed-out white jade vases, An An frowned, and said, "It's too light to give this gift alone, and then go pick up more expensive jewelry."

"I think this is pretty good, and what kind of jewelry do you have, Rong'er won't care about it." Gu Youning didn't think so.

"You don't know the pros and cons of it. Although Concubine Chun looks happy and looks beautiful, I'm afraid she must be full of fear at this time," Chu Yu said.

"Why?" Gu Youning asked puzzled.

Chu Yu smiled, put his arms around him, and said, "Let's go, I'll tell you on the way"

On the way, Chu Yu simply said a few words to Gu Youning, and Gu Youning couldn't help being speechless. He thought it was a happy event, but he didn't think there was such a key behind the happy event.

"It's hard for a woman like her to plan such a thing day and night." Gu Youning was not angry because of Du Rong'er's heresy and suspicion, but felt a little pity in her heart.

Chu Yu turned his head and looked at him quietly, half-smiled, and stretched out his arms to hug him.

Gu Youning looked at him head-on: "What's wrong?"

"..." Chu Yu smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing..."

As the two of them were talking, they arrived at the gate of the palace. Chu Yu and Gu Youning walked slowly into the Qionghua Palace. Most of the clan members at the banquet had already arrived, and the emperor and empress were naturally sitting in the first seats. Sitting beside De Shengdi, he was dressed gorgeously and had exquisite makeup, but his slightly protruding belly was slightly bulky.

Chu Yu and Gu Youning saluted the emperor first, and then congratulated Concubine Chun on her pregnancy.

Du Rong'er also stood up and returned the gift: "Thank you, my lord and concubine, for your concern."

Seeing her get up beside her, Emperor De Sheng hurriedly reached out to help her. His considerate appearance made Concubine Li, who was seated next, turn red with jealousy. Although the Empress looked at her with a smile, her eyes were unavoidably cold.

She knew that Emperor De Sheng didn't really care much about the harem, but now he treats Concubine Chun like this, which is even worse than that of Concubine Li.

After what happened to Chu Xiao, the queen lost a lot of weight, and she looked even fiercer, and she couldn't stop the hatred in her eyes when she looked at Chu Yu.

After she learned that Concubine Chun was pregnant, although she was a little concerned, she didn't take it to heart. She thought that even if the child was a boy, even if it was born, there would be these adult princes in front of her, and there would be another adult prince in front of her. The eldest grandson of the emperor, no matter what, it will not be her child's turn.

But Chu Cheng reminded: "The concubine Chun's child is young, but now the father is in the prime of life, so why not wait until the child grows up, and if the father raises it himself, what should I do?"

The reason why Chu Cheng said this was because they were all clear in their hearts. Chu Xiao died. Although he killed his brothers and did all kinds of bad things, Emperor De Sheng still put the blame on the three of them.
