Chapter 862: Bear the humiliation and bear the burden
"The child looks so much like the emperor, so beautiful." Wu Xirou's eyebrows were very gentle when she said this.
Qin Zhao joked: "Don't you look good looking like me?"
Wu Xirou laughed and shook her head: "Of course not. I thought that since I am a prince, it would be more beautiful to look like the emperor. If I am a princess, it would be more beautiful to look like my sister."
Qin Zhao couldn't fault her words: "That makes sense. I still want to have a daughter, but with a body like mine, I'm afraid I won't have the chance to get pregnant again."
Wu Xirou didn't know how to answer the call for a moment.
Anyone else would probably think that Qin Zhao was deliberately showing off that he had given birth to a prince, but she did hear the regret in Qin Zhao's tone.
"I think there are no absolutes in the world. Since God has given my sister a child in such a situation, my sister will also have the opportunity to be pregnant with a princess in the future." Wu Xirou comforted softly.
Qin Zhao felt that he was being hypocritical again.
She previously expressed her feelings because she was unable to give birth to a daughter in her previous life.
But she forgot that Wu Xirou didn't even have the chance to sleep with her, but she lamented that Wu Xirou might not have the chance to have a daughter.
She really didn't mean it this time, but Wu Xirou not only didn't blame her, but also comforted her. She could not match such a magnanimity.
"Is there anything that Sister Wu is particularly eager for?" Qin Zhao suddenly asked.
This kind of Wu Xirou seemed to be transcendent, with no desires, no pursuits, no ambitions. It seemed that except for Xiao Ce, there was nothing Wu Xirou wanted in the world.
"I think peace is a blessing. I have glory and wealth, and I also have a peaceful life. If I have other extravagant thoughts, it would be too greedy." Wu Xirou told the truth, but she also had some psychological words that she left unsaid.
As long as she can stay in the palace and continue to be Xiao Ce's woman, she will have no other unnecessary thoughts in this life.
Because the person she wants most is within her sight, and if she has other extravagant thoughts, she is afraid that she will lose what she only has.
"There are very few people who are as easily satisfied as my sister." Qin Zhao suddenly had nothing to say.
Someone like Wu Xirou should be the heroine. She admired Wu Xirou very much at this moment. Otherwise, she would never be as free and easy as Wu Xirou.
"Make my sister laugh." Wu Xirou looked at the child in Qin Zhao's arms, eager to give it a try: "Can I give him a hug?"
She wanted to hold the baby before, but because there were so many people, she couldn't make the request. Now that she saw such a cute baby, she couldn't help but want to give it a hug.
Qin Zhao put the child in Wu Xirou's arms: "Be careful."
Wu Xirou carefully hugged the child. The child seemed to open his eyes and look at her before continuing to sleep.
"The child is so beautiful." Wu Xirou couldn't help but sigh.
Qin Zhao smiled: "Does my sister say anything else besides this sentence?"
"It's really beautiful." Wu Xirou said and kissed the child on the face.
At this time, the child opened his eyes again and looked at her quietly. The look in his eyes actually made her feel a little guilty.
She felt surprised and looked at the child a few more times. At this time, the little guy closed his eyes again and continued to sleep.
"This child will definitely be smart in the future." Wu Xirou said, handing the child back to Qin Zhao's arms.
Qin Zhao only thought that she was being polite, and smiled: "The child is still young, and we won't know until later whether he is smart or not."
Wu Xirou envied Qin Zhao from the bottom of her heart at this moment. Not only could she be favored by Xiao Ce, but she also had such a cute child. Only when she saw the child up close did she realize how well-behaved Qin Zhao's child was.
After sitting in Jinyang Palace for a while, Wu Xirou said goodbye and left.
The moment she walked out of Jinyang Palace, the smile on Wu Xirou's face dimmed.
Fangruo saw Wu Xirou's emotional changes in her eyes and whispered: "Your Majesty, please come to Jinyang Palace less frequently."
The happier the noble concubine is, the more disappointed the virtuous concubine will be.
The imperial concubine has everything, including the emperor's special favor, a cute little prince, and the fame and fortune of the imperial concubine, but the good concubine has nothing more than a false name.
In addition, Concubine Xian was so fond of the emperor that every time she came to Jinyang Palace, she would go through a heart-wrenching process, which made her, a slave, intolerable.
"There should be no lack of etiquette. Now is the time when Sister Qin is in great glory. It won't be a big deal if I don't come here." Wu Xirou smiled gently: "Don't worry, I'm not that fragile. Little Atom is so cute, and I'm sincere.
favorite."
That child is Xiao Ce's only child, how could she not like it?
"I still feel that Jinyang Palace should come less often." Fan Ruona said.
Wu Xirou nodded in response: "Then I'll listen to you. I'll try to come here as little as possible from now on."
Seeing this, Fang Ruo felt even more sorry for her master.
When Wu Xirou returned to Zhongcui Palace, she saw a familiar palace attendant standing aside to greet her, it was Liuli.
She slowed down and stood in front of Liuli.
Liuli quickly knelt down on the ground, not daring to raise her head to look at Wu Xirou.
Wu Xirou looked at Liuli's head for a long time, and finally made a decision: "When you return to serve me, you need to be careful in your words and deeds. This is the last chance I give you. If you do it again, there will be no one around me again.
your position."
She saw Liuli's recent changes, and since Liuli was determined to make things right, she should give Liuli another chance, because her master-servant relationship with Liuli lasted for two lifetimes.
There is no doubt about Liuli's loyalty to her, which is why she is willing to give Liuli another chance.
After Liuli realized that she was taken back by Wu Xirou again, she was moved beyond measure and burst into tears: "I thank you, Concubine Xian, for your kindness. I will be careful in your words and deeds in the future so as not to cause any trouble to your concubine."
"Get up." Wu Xirou stepped forward to help Liuli up, wiped away Liuli's tears, and said seriously: "Just this once."
Liuli looked at Wu Xirou who was so gentle and nodded vigorously.
In Jinyang Palace, Qin Zhao heard the conversation between Wu Xirou's master and servant.
Fangruo clearly feels sorry for what happened to Wu Xirou. The happier she is, the crueler she will be to Wu Xirou.
Today, Wu Xirou seems to be bearing the burden of humiliation.
This is also the reason why no matter how good Wu Xirou becomes, she can't really have a heart-to-heart relationship with Wu Xirou.
According to the plot in the book, Wu Xiyu snatched Wu Xirou's heroine status and was supposed to enter the East Palace as the crown princess, but because of her interference, Wu Xiyu's dream of becoming a crown princess came to nothing.
It is precisely because of this that the process of Wu Xirou's entry into the palace was also rewritten.
The plot in the book should have collapsed by now, right? But Wu Xirou, who was supposed to be the heroine, is still playing a role and has become a good concubine. Such a heroine's halo cannot be underestimated.
Sometimes she felt that Wu Xirou was no longer lethal, and sometimes she felt that Wu Xirou's existence reminded her from time to time that the real heroine was Wu Xirou, and sooner or later she would have to make room for Wu Xirou.
