In the next few days, the East Palace was enveloped in a dull atmosphere.
The palace servants and a group of East Palace guards were all cautious in their words and deeds, and they were even more cautious when walking. They were afraid that if they were not careful, they would become a fish in the pond.
Concubine Tian Shu laughed several times behind her back. As the saying goes, having fun alone is not as good as having fun with everyone. Concubine Tian Shu specially went to Ganquan Palace to chat with Concubine Cao. However, Concubine Cao stayed in the Hall of Supreme Harmony every day, and Concubine Tian Shu wasted no time.
Came back chattering.
Yuan Min had a fetus and had the fetus installed on the bed. Naturally, she could no longer take care of the palace affairs. The princess took mental measures to support her, mainly by sitting upright and frightening everyone. There were rubies for every trivial matter!
The female family members of the Yuan family entered the palace to visit the grandson concubine.
"Mother." When Yuan Min saw her mother, her eyes heated up and her eyes were filled with water.
When Mrs. Yuan saw her pale daughter, her heart ached. She sat beside the bed and held Yuan Min's hand tightly: "Min'er, I'm sorry for you."
Yuan Min burst into tears immediately.
No matter how much the Crown Princess loves her, it is her mother-in-law. As a daughter-in-law, she cannot cry in front of her mother-in-law. As soon as her mother-in-law comes, the grievances and pains that have been suppressed in her heart suddenly surge up.
Mrs. Yuan held back her tears, gently stroked Yuan Min's long hair, and comforted her softly: "Miner, mother knows that you are sad and sad. How can a woman not suffer from this?"
"You have been married to your great-grandson for four years. Your husband and wife are very loving. They have a legitimate son and daughter, and there is another child in your belly. The most important thing now is to take good care of the baby and give birth to the child safely. The position of your great-grandson is
, no one can shake her. Not to mention an insignificant beauty, even if the grandson wants to have a concubine in the future, don’t stop her."
Mrs. Yuan paused and whispered: "Min'er, if you had not married your grandson that day, but the son-in-law of another family, perhaps this matter would have happened earlier."
"There is no truly infatuated and devoted man in this world."
Yuan Min's crying gradually stopped, she was stunned for a moment, and suddenly whispered: "After my uncle married my aunt, he devoted himself wholeheartedly and never had two sexes."
Mrs. Yuan glanced at Yuan Min with a complicated expression: "Silly girl. When King Yan asked to marry the Yuan family's legitimate daughter, it was not only out of admiration, but also to win over the Yuan family."
"The Yuan family is the number one general in Da Qi. They are in charge of the border army and guard the border passes. Half of the generals in the army came from your grandfather."
"The King of Yan ranked second, not as powerful as the King of Qin, and not as favored as the King of Han. Without the full support of the Yuan family, he would not have been able to become the crown prince."
"He is naturally very obedient to your aunt, and there is nothing wrong with her."
"Now, King Yan has secured his position in the East Palace, and Zhu Yun is the grandson conferred by the emperor and the future prince of Qi. There is a difference between monarch and minister. The Yuan family is a minister after all. You married high, even if you occasionally suffer some grievances, the Yuan family
It’s not convenient for me to come to your door to support you for a trivial matter.”
What's more, if this thing is revealed, it is just a man's pastime after drinking, not even a romantic affair.
Yuan Min's eyes dimmed and she remained silent.
Mrs. Yuan felt sorry for her daughter and lowered her voice: "There is an old story that only a few people know about. Today, I will tell you secretly. If you hear it, keep it deep in your heart and never reveal it."
Yuan Min raised his eyes in shock.
Mrs. Yuan said in a low voice: "Actually, when your aunt was pregnant, your uncle also had an affair."
What?
Yuan Min's eyes suddenly widened.
"Your aunt was born weak. After she became pregnant, she spent most of her time lying on the bed to raise the fetus. King Yan didn't even have a maid to marry him, and he didn't have sex with a woman for more than half a year. Later, he was approached by a woman with evil intentions and evil intentions.
Get married."
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Mrs. Yuan's eyes: "At that time, the woman put medicine in the soup. After King Yan drank the soup, he couldn't control himself, and he had sex with the woman. After that, King Yan was furious and almost fell on the spot.
Draw your sword and kill.”
Yuan Min gasped, her face full of shock. Then she heard Mrs. Yuan continue: "It's just that once you do it, you can't hide this matter. Your aunt's body is delicate, and her fetal condition has been unstable. No.
One bets you what her reaction would be if she found out."
"So, this matter was suppressed."
"Prince Yan came to Yuan's house secretly to plead guilty. Your father told me this matter quietly, and I never mentioned it to anyone. What I am telling you today is to tell you that no matter how dedicated and infatuated a man is, he will inevitably make mistakes.
"
"As long as my grandson's heart is with you, don't get involved in this matter."
After a long time, Yuan Min slowly exhaled: "Mom, who is that woman?"
Mrs. Yuan's eyes flashed and she refused to say anything: "Don't ask about this. Even my grandson doesn't know about this. You mustn't let it slip."
Yuan Min nodded silently.
Mrs. Yuan asked in a low voice again: "Where is that beauty placed by the grandson?"
Yuan Min responded with wan interest: "I've been lying down to nurse my baby these past few days, and I didn't bother."
Mrs. Yuan sighed: "I know you are unhappy. However, you cannot completely ignore this matter. You are less than four months pregnant and will not give birth for about half a year. What if that beauty comes to your grandson again?
It’s always not beautiful.”
"When you can stay, 'settle' that beauty properly."
The so-called proper arrangement means that people should keep a close eye on him and not "by chance" meet his grandson or the like on the road.
Yuan Min nodded.
…
After Mrs. Yuan left, the Crown Princess came immediately.
The Crown Princess looked at Yuan Min and said with a smile: "Your face looks much better today."
Yuan Min looked at the smiling face of the Crown Princess, and Mrs. Yuan's words flashed through her mind. For some reason, she felt indescribably depressed and depressed.
The crown prince's affair back then has been kept in the dark, and the princess lives in her own happy world under the protection of her father and brother...
Actually, this is fine.
It is better for people to live in confusion than to suffer from sobriety.
"Aunt," Yuan Min suddenly called softly.
The Crown Princess smiled in surprise: "Since you married Yun'er, you have called me "Mother Concubine" and never called me "Aunt". What's wrong with me today?"
"It's nothing, I just want to call my aunt suddenly." Yuan Min leaned her head on the princess's shoulder, just like she did when she was young.
The princess watched Yuan Min grow up and felt sorry for her niece from the bottom of her heart.
It was a rare moment when Yuan Min was weak and helpless. The Crown Princess felt even more pity for her and put her arms around Yuan Min's shoulders: "Min'er, I know you are feeling miserable. You are pregnant and cannot be angry. Wait until the child is born safely.
Take good care of your child’s biological father.”
Yuan Min endured her sadness and responded softly: "My aunt loves me so much. If I feel dissatisfied, I just don't know what to do. Don't worry, aunt, I can handle this."
The Crown Princess breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said, "Okay, okay, as long as you can figure it out."
