"There are many ways to remove that piece of flesh. The one you mentioned is the worst way. It will hurt others and yourself, do you understand?"
Xia Qing wiped her face carelessly, calmed down and said: "I understand that I acted too hastily, but with Wei Jingxuan's temperament, she will definitely be on guard, and she is in the Yangxin Palace, so it is difficult to find someone to kill her.
If the opportunity is bad, it will arouse the emperor's suspicion."
"The Emperor will not be suspicious." Xianyue said with a cold smile: "The Emperor has now determined that I, Xu Wei Jingxuan, gave birth to this child. In other words, no matter what I do, the Emperor will not be suspicious, so there is no need to worry.
"
This time, Xia Qing calmed down completely. After standing up, she lowered her head guiltily and said, "It was my slave's recklessness before. Please forgive me, Master."
Xianyue caressed her cheek and said: "It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. You must keep your composure and don't mess up your position. Otherwise, even if you gain temporarily, in the end, you will only suffer the loss."
Xia Qing nodded seriously and said, "I will remember my master's teachings."
When Wei Jingxuan learned from Hongli that she could give birth to this child, she was overjoyed, burst into tears, and kowtowed to express gratitude.
Hongli looked at her expressionlessly and said: "I will ask Sixi to rearrange your residence. Before the child is born, you no longer have to work as an errand. Someone will deliver your daily meals; in addition, Dr. Zhou will come every day."
Take your pulse, and if you feel any discomfort, feel free to tell him."
Wei Jingxuan said with gratitude: "I obey the order and thank you for your kindness."
"Okay, you can go down." Hongli's words made Wei Jingxuan startled. According to her guess, since she was willing to keep this child, Hongli should give her a formal title. Why from just now to now,
Hongli didn't mention it a word.
Although she felt strange in her heart, Wei Jingxuan knew enough not to ask any more questions, and left the main hall with Sixi. In the days to come, if it was as Hongli said, there would be no need for errands, and a palace maid was even assigned to wait on her, so she would no longer need to do anything herself.
, Zhou Minghua also came to ask for pulse every day; but Hongli never showed up, and there was no news about the canonization intention.
She went to see Hongli several times, but was blocked before entering, which made her feel more and more uneasy. She didn't know what Hongli's intention was.
After lunch that day, she sat for a while and said, "Cui Zhu, help me go to pay your respects to the emperor."
Cuizhu glanced at the scorching sun outside and said with concern: "Girl, you just went there yesterday. If the emperor still doesn't see you today, wouldn't it be another trip in vain?" Wei Jingxuan has not been given a title and cannot be called the master, so Cuizhu
Bamboo calls her a girl.
Wei Jingxuan shook her head and said: "Whether the emperor sees you or not, I have to greet you outside. This is also our duty as slaves."
Wei Jingxuan knew in her heart that apart from the child in her belly, she had lost her value in Hongli's eyes when she was unable to sleep with her. Under such circumstances, she naturally wanted to appear in front of Hongli more often so that he would not forget it.
Own.
Seeing that she insisted on doing this, Cuizhu had no choice but to help her up. When she was about to take a step, the door was pushed open, and Xianyue, wearing a purple brocade and hundred butterfly flags, appeared in the sight of the two of them.
Cuizhu was startled and quickly bowed to salute. Behind her, Wei Jingxuan also wanted to salute. Xianyue ordered A Luo to support her and said: "You are pregnant, so there is no need to be more polite." After that, he turned his eyes and said: "Wei
Where are you going, girl?"
Wei Jingxuan guessed Xiayue's intention and said: "Returning to your Majesty, I am preparing to go to pay my respects to the Emperor."
Xianyue's lips curled up slightly, and she nodded and said, "I just went to the Yangxin Palace. The Emperor is discussing state affairs with several military ministers. We'd better not disturb him."
"Yes." Wei Jingxuan responded meekly, and then asked tentatively: "I wonder what your orders are when your Majesty comes today?"
Xianyue smiled slowly and said: "What orders can I give you? I just remembered that I haven't come to see Miss Wei since I found out she was pregnant, so I came here to have a look. There is no need to be nervous. By the way, everything is going well these days.
Is there any discomfort?"
Wei Jingxuan said with a grateful look on her face: "Thank you very much for your concern, I hope everything is fine for you."
Xianyue nodded slightly and said: "You are only more than two months pregnant now, and it is not stable yet. You must be careful in everything and don't be careless. You must know that you are pregnant with the prince of the Qing Dynasty."
Wei Jingxuan said humbly: "Yes, I will be careful."
Xianyue smiled and said to Cuizhu, who was standing aside with her hands hanging down: "I stewed a cup of bird's nest for Miss Wei in the imperial kitchen. Counting the time, it will be almost ready by now. Go and get it."
Cuizhu responded and left quickly. After the door was closed again to cut off the heat outside, Xianyue just turned her eyes again to the humble Wei Jingxuan and said with a half-smile: "Actually, since
After I found out that you were sleeping with the Emperor, I have always wanted to have a few words of sincerity with you, but unfortunately I never found the opportunity. To be honest, I really admire you."
Wei Jingxuan's eyelids twitched, and she said with a confused look on her face: "Why did your Majesty say this?"
Xianyue sneered: "You know what kind of person you are, and I know even better, so why are you still here acting coy? Over the years, I have wanted your life more than once, but I always let you escape.
Go, I don’t know if it’s because of your good fortune or because of my poor skills, that you are not only alive now, but also pregnant with a dragon seed.”
Wei Jingxuan met her gaze and said softly: "My Majesty's methods are not only good, but also extremely clever. The reason why I can survive until now is probably, as my Majesty said, it's my fate."
Xianyue glanced at her belly, which had not yet swelled, and said coldly: "Although I don't know how you conceived the child, I think you used a lot of tricks to make me guess that Concubine Yu was also involved.
Right?"
Wei Jingxuan's eyes flickered and she said, "I don't understand what I mean."
Xianyue walked slowly around her, "You know very well. You want to use this child to get a formal status and get rid of the status of slavery. Unfortunately...the emperor has no such plan. You..." She leaned towards Wei Jingxuan.
In his ears, he said word by word: "You will always be a slave!"
Wei Jingxuan's face turned pale, she bit her lip and said, "I have no wrong thoughts. As long as I can give birth to this child safely, I will be satisfied."
"Really?" Xia Yue raised her chin lightly and sneered: "It's a pity that although you concealed your sex very well, I still saw it. Wei Jingxuan, do you really think you have this child?"
Can you rise to the top and become the master?" Before Wei Jingxuan could speak, she shook her head and said: "Impossible! I will not give you this opportunity."
