Beauty on the side

Chapter 040 Breaking Love 1

Princess Qin suddenly cared about this matter, but it was not convenient for me to ask. I only told her about the fire in the abandoned house yesterday.

"There is the spiritual card of the Sui Dynasty. Usually no one came in and out, but there was a fire..." Princess Qin was silently distracted. I pulled the quilt for her and said, "Princess Qin should have a good rest. At this time, the most important thing is to take care of herself." Princess Qin held my hand holding the bedding and stared at me and asked, "Xu Ran, I have believed in you for so many days with me."

Her words were particularly warm, and I shook Princess Qin's hand: "Princess Xie Qin trusts the maidservant. I will definitely accompany the princess well and watch the little son grow up." Princess Qin grabbed my hand tightly and said, "I know how the prince's feelings for you are. How can you stay in my Chengqian Hall?" Her eyes were locked on my face and paused and continued, "If you want to choose, there can only be one in the East Palace and Chengqian Hall. Where will you stay?"

I felt strange and asked, "Why did Princess Qin ask this?" Why can't the East Palace and Chengqian Hall coexist? Princess Qin looked at me, and her eyes gradually faded. Finally, she sighed and said, "In fact, the brotherhood between the prince and His Royal Highness the King of Qin is not as deep as we saw. The royal family is a cruel place. I'm afraid, afraid..."

Her eyes moved to the cradle next to her. Li Chengqian had just been born, and his slightly red face was wrinkled, which was really not good-looking. Especially with this child, I'm even more afraid. Princess Qin looked at Li Chengqian sleeping and smiled bitterly.

I remembered the memorial on the night of the New Year's Day. The brotherhood between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin may not be as profound as Princess Qin said. Princess Qin said that the royal family is a cruel place, and I don't quite understand it. Even if it is cruel, I think the blood relationship can never be changed and can never be violated.

I helped the messy hair on Princess Qin's forehead and comforted her: "Princess Qin, please rest assured that I will take good care of you and take care of the little son."

Princess Qin held my hand again and tried to get up. I quickly held her waist and sat up. Her face was very weak, but she was still so worried, which really hurt me. Princess Qin looked at me seriously and asked, "I won't let you give an answer immediately, but you have to promise me that you will be in Chengqian Hall for a day, and your heart will turn to Chengqian Hall until you really step into the East Palace."

"Yes." I nodded. Princess Qin's expression was very serious at this time: "What I said to you today is not allowed to be passed on. If you are still the Mo Xiran I trust."

"Yes." I raised my eyes to her realization and affirmed, "Princess Qin, please rest assured that she will be a person you can trust and a person that Princess Qin has something to talk to. I only hope that Princess Qin will not be so tired by herself.

I slowly helped Princess Qin to lie down, and she pulled me and kept telling me, "I know that the prince is interested in you, but you have to remember what I said!"

"Princess Qin, don't worry, the maidservant will keep her promise." I smiled and said, and she nodded and smiled at me with relief.

Maybe it's because I'm not in this secret fight. Although I feel the concern of Princess Qin, I don't understand the dispute. On this day, I accompanied Princess Qin and watched her make clothes for the newborn Li Chengqian. Li Shimin came at noon, and then went to the Liangyi Hall to negotiate the war with the prince and the king of Qi. I heard that Liu Wuzhou accepted the proposal of "southward to fight for the world" and led 20,000 troops to invade Bingzhou in the south. Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji asked for war one after another, but Li Yuan had not really issued an order to fight.

In the evening, I left Chengqian Hall and met Li Shimin, Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanji when I walked to the court. They came back from the Liangyi Hall with a slightly tired look. I couldn't help but change the way, but I was still stopped by Li Jiancheng.

"His Royal Highnesses are all thelessings." I have to go back to bless myself. Li Jiancheng helped me ask, "You haven't eaten yet, have you?" Use it with me."

"Ah?" I was very surprised. I peeked at Li Shimin, and his eyes naturally swept away from me. I hesitated for a moment and said, "I dare not. I'd better go back to the court." Li Jiancheng pulled me with a smiling face and said, "What does it matter? I mentioned you to my father today."

I was even more surprised. I moved my lips but couldn't speak. I looked quietly in the direction of Li Shimin from time to time. Li Jiancheng also noticed my abnormality and turned around and smiled at Li Shimin but said to me, "Are you afraid that Chengqian Hall will not let people go? When I mentioned it, my second brother agreed.

Li Shimin also smiled and responded at this time: "That's good."

For no reason, I followed Li Jiancheng back to the East Palace. When I went in, the maid of honor couldn't help but be slightly stunned, but she still returned to her original look respectfully. Entering the main hall, a maid of honor ran from the side and knelt on the ground and said to Li Jiancheng, "Your Highness, you are back. The princess has been waiting for you to come back for dinner."

Li Jiancheng frowned slightly, pulled my hand and said to the maid, "I'm back. You can go back and serve her for dinner."

The maid of honor trembled and raised her head and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, won't you eat with the princess?"

Li Jiancheng waved his hand: "No, I have a distinguished guest today." He turned to another maid and said, "Go to prepare another dinner."

Looking at the maid who came to report retreat, I was uneasy and asked Li Jiancheng, "The crown princess is pregnant. Why did Your Highness do this to her?" Li Jiancheng took off his cloak and hung it in the hall casually. He sat on the main chair with a smile: "Don't you eat sour food?"

I laughed, not because it was ridiculous, but because I was helpless. A woman is destined to follow a man, but the man has to neglect her for other women, and she still has the man's flesh and blood in her stomach. I can't help but become strange to Li Jiancheng in front of me. It turns out that he never feels responsible for the woman he doesn't like. But I feel familiar, because Li Shimin is the same and never has mercy on what he hates.

Li Jiancheng looked at my changing eyes and came down to protect me gently: "Xiran, even if I am what you think, you should know that there are always so many involuntary bodies in the world."

Yes, there are always so many people in the world who can't help themselves. He couldn't help entering the palace, couldn't help pulling in the harem, and couldn't help himself... Li Jiancheng once told me that he couldn't help taking the crown princess, and now the emperor can't help himself. Isn't he like me?

At this time, a figure slowly came out of the hall. Several maids stood outside the main hall behind the princess. The princess's eyes were locked here, and I trembled all over. I pushed Li Jiancheng away to bless her. Only then did Li Jiancheng turn around and see her, but he invited her to come and sit down.

Li Jiancheng sat back in his seat and stood beside him. The princess sat on the side seat, but she no longer looked at me and asked Li Jiancheng in a soft tone, "Your Highness investigated the abandoned house in the morning. What's the result?"

Li Jiancheng poured himself and took a sip of tea: "You have a good fetus, don't worry about this." The princess smiled and said, "Your Highness taught me a lesson that I should take good care of the fetus." She paused, as if she had something to say but couldn't say it. Li Jiancheng took a look at her and motioned, but it didn't matter. The princess winned at a maid beside her, who was understanding and retreated from the main hall.

"When my concubine was walking in the palace recently, I saw a strange woman and sent someone to ask which bureau she belonged to, but she couldn't tell." The princess said slowly.

"Oh? It's a little strange, and then, what did you do? Li Jiancheng moved his face and looked serious. At this time, the maid who went out returned to the main hall, holding a pair of rolled up drawing paper in her hand. The crown princess signaled to Li Jiancheng and said, "My concubine also felt strange, so I ordered someone to draw this person down."

Li Jiancheng opened the picture scroll, and I saw some on the side, but at this glance, I was suddenly surprised! Isn't this the woman Li Shimin met in the people on the Yuan Dynasty? Isn't she the woman I said she would take me away in the waste house? She did not come in from outside the palace, but has been wandering in the palace. So many people have not found her, but she was found by the princess alone. The princess is really a very keen person!

Li Jiancheng beside him looked at the portrait and smiled, "It's not bad. Why, the princess wants me to take her into the East Palace as a side concubine?

The princess couldn't help but stiffen her face when she got Li Jiancheng's half smile and replied, "Your Highness wants to accept the side concubine, but I have no objection. It's just that my concubine thinks this woman..."

"Good!" Before she finished speaking, Li Jiancheng roared and shook my hand and smiled at the crown princess. "This is what the crown princess said yourself. I mean to be a concubine."

When the princess saw him holding my hand, her face suddenly turned blue, and her sharp eyes stared at our hands. I was also a little dissatisfied with Li Jiancheng's sudden words and immediately knelt on the ground: "Prince three or four, please!"

When Li Jiancheng saw me kneeling down, he immediately helped me up vigorously, with a trace of doubtful anger in his eyebrows. The crown princess tried to pull back her face and continued, "Your Highness, please listen to my concubine. My concubine sent someone to investigate the woman and found that there was no information about her in the court, and someone had seen her talking to the Second Highness.

At this time, Li Jiancheng became serious, reopened the scroll and looked at it carefully, waved into a bodyguard, handed the scroll to him and ordered: "Bry back this woman in the shortest time!"

"Yes." The bodyguard got the order and immediately retreated. This person is Xue Wanche, the guardian of the East Palace. Seeing that this was the case, I couldn't help wandering and conflicting, and my men began to quietly pick up their sleeves. At this time, a row of maids came in from outside the hall, and the dinner was ordered to arrive.

Princes Li Jiancheng said, "I haven't eaten yet for this matter. Come and join us." The princess got up and nodded, walked to Li Jiancheng, and waited for Li Jiancheng to sit down before sitting next to him. Li Jiancheng looked at the table, ordered the maid to move the stool and invited me to come over. The princess originally remembered the chopsticks to pick up vegetables for Li Jiancheng. When she heard Li Jiancheng calling me, she immediately stopped and watched me walk to the other side of Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng pulled me down and said, "Today I mentioned you to my father, and he didn't object. This table meal is also a matter of time. Let's get used to it first!"
