Zhu Yunjun's face was stiff and his mind went blank.
There is no surprise, only endless regrets.
The price of a spring breeze is too high. How could she become pregnant by such a coincidence that night? With Yuan Min's temperament, she couldn't do anything to get rid of the child. She could just let the child be born...
This thorn can no longer be removed and will remain in the hearts of the couple forever.
Yuan Min didn't speak anymore.
The couple remained speechless.
Feng Shaojun on the side frowned quietly.
In the previous life, the grandson and the concubine had always been harmonious and loving. Until the year when she closed her eyes, Zhu Yun had never accepted a concubine or anything like that.
In this life, such a man came out, and now he even has a child... Yuan Min's decision cannot be judged simply as right or wrong. It can only be said that the Yuan family has a bright mind, and the daughter they raised is equally upright. I don't want to do anything to a fetus in my belly.
If it were her. If Shen You dared to bring a beauty back home, she would never hold back. Even Shen You wouldn't be able to see the sun the next day, okay?!
Feng Shaojun murmured in his heart, and naturally he would not say anything. In the final analysis, this is a matter between Zhu Yun and Yuan Min. Even if the prince or princess knew about it, he would not attack a pregnant beauty.
After a long time, Zhu Yun finally opened his mouth: "The emperor's grandfather has not passed the first seven years of his life, so it is not appropriate to make such matters public. Have someone take her back to the courtyard and find an imperial doctor to diagnose her pulse."
"If it's really a happy pulse, just prescribe some anti-fetal medicine and let her have a good pregnancy!"
Yuan Min nodded.
Two palace attendants walked over and helped Man'er up from her knees on the ground.
Man'er was still in extreme shock. She couldn't react in time and walked out numbly. When she reached the door, she remembered to thank her. She turned her head and saw His Highness Taisun hugging Concubine Taisun apologetically and pitifully. Caressing Concubine Taisun's belly: "Min'er, did you have fetal force again tonight? I'm sorry, it's all my fault. When you have the strength, give me a good beating to relieve your anger."
He didn't even look up at her.
The concubine did not make a sound, she just snuggled into her husband's arms silently.
The couple hug each other closely and form a small world of their own.
Man'er's eyes darkened, she quickly turned her head back, and left with a light step.
…
Feng Shaojun also quietly retreated out.
Everything that needs to be known is already known. The grandson and his wife need to be alone. She should go back to the mourning hall and report the matter to His Royal Highness in a timely manner!
Feng Shaojun quickly went to the mourning hall.
At this time, it was already around the third watch. People were sleeping quietly in various postures in the mourning hall. His Royal Highness was still kneeling upright.
Feng Shaojun did not go to His Highness the Crown Prince, but went to Eunuch Yang as usual and whispered a few words. Eunuch Yang's eyes were a little complicated, but without hesitation, he immediately reported in a low voice: "Your Highness, the beauty named Man'er is pregnant."
Prince: "..."
The past that had been sealed for many years suddenly turned into a sharp thorn, deeply piercing my heart.
The prince's face suddenly turned ugly and he glanced at Eunuch Yang.
Eunuch Yang knew that his master was in a gloomy mood, but he could not express any words of comfort. He continued to whisper: "The Grand Concubine asked the imperial doctor to diagnose Miss Man'er's pulse and give birth to the fetus."
Yuan Min's appearance and temperament are different from those of her aunt Yuan Xiang. However, she has the pride and magnanimity inherited from the Yuan family in her bones.
This choice is not surprising.
The prince didn't know what to say for a moment. After a long while, he uttered a few words: "This matter will not be made public for the time being."
There are important matters such as the funeral of the emperor, the enthronement of the new emperor, and the enthronement of the vassal state. Compared with this, a mere grandson or granddaughter of a concubine is really not that important.
Eunuch Yang nodded slightly.
…
The Crown Princess knew about this the next morning.
Kneeling down was always a hard job. The princess had a delicate body and was struggling to hold on. When she suddenly heard the news that Man'er was pregnant, she was anxious and annoyed and stood up suddenly.
In the mourning hall, the female relatives of the officials, who were kneeling and crying softly, looked up one after another. Most of their eyes were full of curiosity and excitement, "What happened, what happened, what happened to the East Palace?"
The Crown Princess finally managed not to get dizzy. She took a deep breath and knelt down again.
The Crown Princess was in a bad mood and had to pretend to cry. Listening to the whimpering sounds coming from time to time, she became more and more depressed.
Unfortunately, I can't express my regrets verbally.
I endured it until night.
The officials and their female relatives have all left the palace, and the kneeling palace concubines, whose voices have become hoarse from crying, take advantage of this moment to eat some steamed buns and drink some cold water to wrap their bellies.
The mourning hall, which had been "busy" all day, finally became a little quiet.
When the Crown Princess walked out of the mourning hall, she saw a familiar face of a chamberlain approaching her: "Your Majesty, Your Highness has ordered your servant to send a message to Your Majesty, asking her to return to the East Palace."
It's Eunuch Feng.
The Crown Princess took a deep breath, nodded briefly, and walked quickly back to the East Palace.
The East Palace is completely blank. At night, everything you see is pale, which makes it look quite scary.
The princess met the prince with a sullen face.
Before the prince could open his mouth, the princess frowned and said angrily: "That bastard Zhu Yun!"
"Min'er is five months pregnant and has to kneel down every day! He is so angry and sensitive. It really pisses me off. I've been holding it in all day and I have to scold him."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's expression was not beautiful either. He pursed his thin lips and after a moment said in a deep voice: "He has to stay in the mourning hall tonight."
The prince stayed in the mourning hall for several nights, but he couldn't stand it any longer. Tonight, he asked his grandson to stay vigil in the mourning hall, and he returned to the East Palace. I don't know if he wanted to defend his son, or out of another subtle mood, he opened his mouth and said:
"I know you are angry, and I am angry too. However, this matter is not entirely his fault."
"It's not his fault, is it possible to blame Min'er?" The princess immediately choked back: "Or who forced him to sleep with the beauty?"
The corners of the prince's mouth twitched: "The water and wine he drank that night were mixed with drugs to enhance his enjoyment."
The Crown Princess snorted heavily: "If he had been more vigilant, he wouldn't have fallen into other people's schemes. In the final analysis, it was his lack of self-discipline that allowed the beauty to get close to him so easily."
Prince: "..."
The prince remained silent.
The Crown Princess didn't notice the Prince's strange silence, she frowned and said angrily: "It's okay now. The beauty has settled in the East Palace and is pregnant again. When she gives birth to a child, she will be the grandson of the emperor."
"If there is one, there are two."
"It will be very lively in the palace from now on."
At this time, the princess was reprimanding Zhu Yun from the standpoint of her niece Yuan Min.
The prince was hit by arrows in the chest one after another, and felt a dull pain. He cheered up and said, "My dear, calm down first. Yun'er is still too young. After suffering a loss, he will naturally be careful in everything in the future."
The Crown Princess snorted: "He is far worse than you were when you were young."
