Situ Che walked behind Baochai, embraced Baochai from behind, buried his head in Baochai's neck, Baochai resisted the urge to push him away.

Situ Che's voice was a little dry, and he asked with difficulty: "In your opinion, which maid beside you is more suitable?"

Situ Che didn't want to ask, but since he had already said the beginning, he didn't want to finish it now. Next time, he was afraid that he would never have the courage to ask again.Moreover, if you don't choose Baochai's maid, Situ Che doesn't have a maid by his side, and Concubine Cheng will give it to her.This maid is backed by Concubine Cheng, and she doesn't know what kind of troubles she will make in the future.

Baochai brought over a dozen maids, big and small, from Xue's house.Yinger, who grew up with Baochai, was married off by Baochai when she was in the Xue family, and married the second son of Xu Qian, the second housekeeper of the Xue family.Then the husband and wife served as Baochai's companions, and together with Baochai, they entered Chengjun Palace.

Although there were many maids left, Baochai never thought of giving them to Situ Che.Baochai thought that when they were old enough, they would all be released to marry.

Now that Situ Che was asking about himself, Baochai knew that he had good intentions. After all, his maid and her deeds were all in her hands, and she could control them when she had a child.

If she really wants to open up, at this time, she should come down and pick a loyal and honest maid to be his roommate.

However, there was still a feeling of disgust in Baochai's heart.This is the man she has liked for many years, and she cannot push him into someone else's arms with her own hands.

She couldn't, and she didn't want to.

Baochai pulled Situ Che back and looked back at Situ Che, as if wanting to impress Situ Che to the bottom of his heart.After a long while, Baochai replied: "I will release the maids around me in the future. You can decide your concubine yourself, so you don't have to ask me."

At night, Situ Che hugged Baochai tightly in his arms. Even though he held Baochai in his arms, he still felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.Situ Che lay on the bed all night without closing his eyes, coveting Baochai's temperature, always feeling that he could not catch Baochai anymore.

Baochai also didn't sleep all night, but she kept her eyes closed, turned her back to Situ Che, and didn't turn around all night.

Baochai got up at dawn the next day.

Situ Che looked at Baochai's back from behind, as usual, but something was clearly different.

Situ Che wanted to explain something, but didn't know what to say.

He knew that she understood what he wanted to say.But, no matter what the reason is, after all, he failed her first.

The calmer Baochai behaved now, the more terrified Situ Che felt, and he regretted it.

He wished that the time could go back to yesterday, before he had spoken his concubine words.

However, apart from taking concubines, he really couldn't think of any good way.

That being the case, what he said now seemed pale.

After Baochai packed up, she still went to Concubine Cheng's room to pay her respects.

Concubine Cheng looked at Mrs. Xue, Mrs. Xue today is no different from the past, she made people stare outside Mrs. Mrs. Xue's courtyard, there was no noise in Mrs. Xue's room yesterday.Concubine Cheng was puzzled, could it be that Che'er hadn't told her that it was impossible?

Concubine Cheng asked directly: "Did Che'er tell you yesterday that she wanted to take a concubine?"

Baochai replied meekly: "My lord said, it's my fault that blocked the lord's heir. The lord should take in a few more concubines and spread the branches. But my maidservant is rough, it's all up to me." It is arranged by the concubine mother and the prince."

Concubine Cheng looked at Baochai's gentle appearance, and thought in her heart that this Xue family was nothing more than that.She thought she had some abilities, and she didn't want to listen to Che'er.

After Baochai left, Concubine Cheng had someone call Situ Che over, and asked, "Master Xue said she would take a concubine for you, what do you think? Do you want me to choose one for you?"

Hearing Concubine Cheng's mention, Situ Che was a little dazed, wondering how the relationship between him and Baochai had come to this point all of a sudden.

Now Concubine Cheng asked him, Situ Che said perfunctorily: "Concubine Mu, I will pick one in a few days and bring it here for you to see."

Concubine Cheng was dissatisfied and said: "What a few days, you are old now, and you don't have a son yet. Since Mrs. Xue doesn't care, the maids around me, whoever you like, just pick one out."

Situ Che didn't want the maid next to Concubine Cheng, and always felt that it would be a hidden danger in the future, so he directly refused: "Concubine Mu, you can keep the maid by your side to serve you, no matter what, I can't take your maid. In a few days, I will choose one. I still have some work ahead of me, so I will go to work first."

After Situ Che finished speaking, he went out.

Concubine Cheng called a few times from behind, Situ Che pretended not to hear, and left even more hastily.

Situ Che went back to the study in the front yard, took a book of documents, read it for a long time, but didn't read a single word.At noon, Situ Che woke up suddenly, and asked Mo Ran, "Where is the princess now?"

Mo Ran asked someone to inquire, stopped for a while, came back and said: "Wangfei took Sister An and went into the palace."

Situ Che was shocked, and his face turned pale instantly.

Didn't Baochai say yesterday that she would not leave?Why did you enter the palace today?

Situ Che didn't care about taking the carriage.When Situ Che arrived at the stable, the horse he used to ride was sick, so Situ Che chose a horse at random, led him and walked outside, Mo Ran also led the horse, and hurriedly followed.

Today, after Baochai greeted Concubine Cheng, she directly handed over a sign to the palace, begging to see the empress.

On weekdays, Baochai seldom goes to the palace except for festivals and banquets in the palace.

And she went to the queen today, not to complain, or to say something wrong with Concubine Cheng, nor to ask for peace.

Baochai thought about leaving Situ Che and Chengjun Prince's Mansion, but finally let go of this idea.

Now that she has decided to let Situ Che go, there is no difference for her personally, inside or outside the house.

If she asks for peace and divorce, it is very likely that she cannot leave.Even if he could really leave Chengjun Prince's Mansion, it would have a very bad influence on the Xue family.Now that her brother has not returned from overseas, and she doesn't know what's going on now, she can't be willful and drag the Xue family into trouble.

Besides, she would definitely not be able to take Sister An away.She could let go of Situ Che ruthlessly, but she couldn't let go of Sister An.

Moreover, what she wants to do now requires the help of her status as Princess Chengjun.

Now, for herself, for Sister An, and for the sake of many women who are struggling in the inner house, she wants to change the world and the fate of women.

Since ancient times, "Women's Commandments" and "Internal Training" have taught women in this way. Women should be dependent on men, obey their father before they are married, obey their husbands after marriage, and obey their sons after their husbands die. (Note 1)

In her whole life, a woman is dependent on others and at the mercy of others, never being able to make decisions for herself.

However, Baochai was at a loss and didn't know what to do for a while.

However, Baochai knew that she would never be able to do this on her own. She needed to gather people so that more people would agree with her and stand by her side.

The first thing Baochai thought of was the empress.

The queen empress is the most honorable woman in the world.If the royal family admires something, it will naturally be imitated by the world.If Baochai can get the support of the empress, he will get twice the result with half the effort.

Now, what Baochai can do is to make friends with the empress first.As for the future, she will think about it slowly.And today, she also wants to stay a little farther away from Chengjun Palace.

Baochai felt that after marrying Situ Che, her brain had not been used for a long time, and her mind was rusted.

When the queen received Baochai's sign, she was a little surprised, and said to the maid beside her, "I never thought that Princess Chengjun would be willing to come out of her mansion."

Since Princess Chengjun asked to see her, the queen agreed.

The queen has no one who can speak now.

The concubines in the palace are all calculating with each other, so there are no real sisters.Among the sisters-in-law, the abandoned princess had long since passed away, and Princess Zhongshun was imprisoned together with Prince Zhongshun.The emperor also has a younger brother who has not yet married a wife.

The Empress's natal family is a little bit flustered in Cheng Enhou's mansion now.Apart from beating them from time to time, the queen also didn't want them to enter the palace more, so as not to make them drift away.Cheng Enhou's mansion often wanted to send another girl from his family to the palace to help the queen to keep her favor.Therefore, the queen didn't bother to see them.

The wives of ministers are often more cautious when they meet the queen.When the queen saw them, it was all grace, and she couldn't say anything except some scene words, so as not to be over-interpreted by others and affect the previous court.

This princess of Chengjun has a high status. When facing the queen, she doesn't have the restraint of a minister's wife facing herself.Moreover, the king of Chengjun is the emperor's favorite family member, and the empress and the princess of Chengjun have a good relationship, which will not affect the court situation.

Since Princess Chengjun wanted to see herself, the queen readily agreed.

Baochai went to the palace, and when Situ Che learned about it, he thought Baochai was going to ask the emperor to let her leave Chengjun Palace.Situ Che ran straight to the palace at full speed.

He was afraid that Baochai would anger the emperor and make him condemn him.

Moreover, no matter what, he couldn't let Baochai leave Chengjun Palace.

Now, he also thinks about it, he can't do without Baochai!If the emperor wants to blame him because of his heirs, then he will bear it for Baochai.

His life was saved by Baochai, in this case, he would rather give his life back to her than let her leave.

Situ Che came to a corner of the street, his fast horse was running forward, suddenly a four or five-year-old girl rushed out from the side, and ran in front of Situ Che's horse, Situ Che hurriedly pulled the rein, the horse galloped too fast, Unable to stop in an emergency, the little girl was startled by the horse and stayed where she was.

The people next to him didn't have time to come over, Situ Che tried his best to rein in the horse, the horse stopped suddenly, and the man stood up.This horse is not the horse he usually rides, and he yanks the rein, and the horse is startled.

Situ Che didn't sleep last night, and his mood fluctuated greatly. He was in a daze at first, but after the horse was startled, he was thrown from the saddle by the horse.

The horse's hooves stomped down indiscriminately, and Situ Che rolled a few times on the ground, but was still trampled on the stomach by the startled horse.

A passerby subdued the horse, and Situ Che saw that the horse became docile and the little girl was brought to the side by others without being injured. He was relieved and passed out.

At this time, Mo Ran also rushed over, and seeing Situ Che injured on the ground, he quickly got off the horse.

Situ Che was lying on the ground, with blood overflowing from his mouth, and he collapsed to the ground, his personnel unknown.

Mo Ran hastily called for someone to send Situ Che to a nearby medical center for diagnosis and treatment, and then sent for the imperial physician.

Baochai was in the queen's palace and hurried back when she learned about Situ Che's injury.
