Anecdotes of Tianyuan: The Long Night is Young

Chapter 182 follow suit

Wu Qingyao became pregnant within two months of the new concubine De, and the news quickly spread throughout the palace.The other women were fine, the emperor's heir was very prosperous, especially after seeing Zhao Xiyan's reaction, he knew that this child came suddenly and was not what he wanted.What's more, Wu Qingyao is totally vulnerable, this child is just an accident.The queen immediately became jealous. She and Wu Qingyao were not at odds for a day or two. Although Wu Qingyao agreed to become a concubine and presided over the concubine ceremony for her, she was pregnant with Zhao Xiyan's child, and she couldn't bear it.Zhao Xiyan knew that Su Qingshu's reaction must be violent, but he was also at a loss and at a loss for what to do.Before Zhao Xiyan had time to coax the queen, Wu Qingyao took the initiative to come to the door to settle the suspicion with Su Qingshu.Wu Qingyao herself knew that what happened back then made the empress very responsive, and she could only understand the empress' feelings when she had a child.After finally having a child, and being sent back to hell before it was formed, as a parent, how heartbroken it must be.Wu Qingyao was very knowledgeable, she took the initiative to ask Su Qingshu to see her, and apologized for what happened back then.She already has children, and she has to think about her children.She was not favored by Zhao Xiyan in the first place, and having a child was all due to luck.The queen is the master of the harem, if she intentionally makes things difficult or binds Zhao Xiyan in the future, she will be very passive.It doesn't matter if the queen makes things difficult for her, but she has a child and can't let the child suffer together and be neglected by Zhao Xiyan.

Wu Qingyao was indeed a woman with means. First she knelt down in Fengqi Palace, and then had a long talk, and Su Qingshu felt relieved to some extent.The main reason is that Su Qingshu has a handle on Wu Qingyao, and Su Qingshu seems to be the same when he thinks about it.That unlucky child back then was conceived only by the seduction tricks taught by Wu Qingyao, and the porcelain vase that Wu Qingyao stuffed into Su Qingshu back then could make Zhao Xiyan prolong the fun.Wu Qingyao contributed a lot to being able to conceive that child back then.Sure enough, success is also her, and failure is also her.Zhao Xiyan hated drugging. If Zhao Xiyan knew that the child was born like this back then, Su Qingshu was afraid that he would be beaten back to his original shape.Now that she is firmly seated on the queen's throne, having a son, and being pampered and coaxed by Zhao Xiyan, she cannot bear Zhao Xiyan's neglect at all.Moreover, it was not Wu Qingyao who was seriously injured when he went out to play in the palace this time. The three of them might not escape the murderous hands.Although Su Qingshu disagreed in her heart, what Wu Qingyao said was not unreasonable, and she couldn't find any reason to refute her.Whatever Su Qingshu said, he would not change his opinion of Wu Qingyao too much, at most he would stop embarrassing her, but it was absolutely impossible to return to the closeness he had when he was in the palace.Wu Qingyao knew that the queen would not forgive herself so easily, but it was very rare to not be embarrassed.After Wu Qingyao had a showdown with the queen, she felt a lot more relieved, and started to raise her baby quietly.

As soon as Wu Qingyao left, Zhao Xiyan arrived at Fengqi Palace on the back. Seeing that the queen seemed happy, she became even more puzzled.Didn't it mean that the queen smashed things in the palace when she heard the news that Concubine De was pregnant?Zhao Xiyan felt that he was becoming more and more incomprehensible to these women's minds. He was still jealous a while ago, but his hind legs were on the mend. This changed too quickly.Concubine De was pregnant, not only the queen was overwhelmed, but also concubine Xian was jealous.Now it's finally over, the only woman who knows Zhao Xiyan's identity is not favored.Wu Qingyao and her were in the same situation before, but now they not only climbed onto the dragon bed, but they are even pregnant with a child, and she is the only one left standing still.Qiu Ruyu was so anxious to follow the ants on the hot pot that she had nowhere to turn but went to Han Qiuyi again.Han Qiuyi just smiled and said a few words to comfort her.After a few months of calm in the palace, it was early winter in a blink of an eye, and Wu Qingyao was already pregnant.It took Zhao Xiyan a long time to digest the arrival of this child, and he went to Cuiwei Palace to visit Wu Qingyao every now and then, and would think of her for anything good in the palace.When the Queen Mother came back from Jiangnan and heard that Wu Qingyao was pregnant, she also came to Cuiwei Palace to congratulate her on keeping the clouds open to see the moon, and gave her a lot of good things.Zhao Xiyan's attitude towards Wu Qingyao is getting better day by day, and he occasionally stays in Cuiwei Palace.Although this kind of love is not as good as that of the imperial concubine, nor the empress, concubine Yan, and concubine Shu, Wu Qingyao is content and laughs non-stop every day.

It's just winter, and the weather is not too cold, but if you don't put on your clothes in the morning, you may be too cold.Zhao Xiyan yawned and went to court, thinking that today would be worthless, but these old white tea clappers actually brought up the matter of establishing a crown prince.Zhao Xiyan was so angry that he was still in his prime, and he was not even in his thirties, so he said he wanted to establish a prince. Did he think he was useless?Now that his sons are so young, what kind of prince should be established?Only Qichen was ten years old, the age to establish a prince.As soon as Zhao Xiyan heard it, he knew that these ministers were uneasy and kind. It was rare for Zhao Xiyan to reprimand them in court, and the ministers dared not say anything.The emperor is only 26 years old, and the princes are still young, so it is superfluous to propose a crown prince.

After the establishment of the crown prince, another minister proposed that the eldest son of the emperor would soon be 11 years old, and the matter of making the eldest son the king should be put on the agenda.Zhao Xiyan did not count as following the ancestral system to let the prince open the mansion at the age of 12 and become the king of the county, and marry the concubine at the age of 16 to become the prince.He wanted to keep the children for a few more years, and leave the palace to open the house at the age of 15.Zhao Xiyan knew that those who suggested the eldest son of the emperor to be crowned king probably came to test his attitude towards Qichen.Zhao Xiyan knew that Qiushui Villa was trying to test his reaction, if he really gave Qi Chen the heir of Prince Xian, something might go wrong.It is imperative for Qichen to join the lineage of Prince Suxian, and Qi Rui will also join the lineage of other princes in the future. Qichen and Qirui are not his sons, so he certainly doesn't want to give them a chance to inherit the throne. .A hundred years from now, no matter which of his sons will inherit the world, it cannot be Qi Chen and Qi Rui.He was not generous enough to give away the hard-won country and mountains.

Zhao Xiyan felt a little depressed, he didn't know what kind of move Qiushui Villa would make.He doesn't know much about Qiushui Mountain Villa now, if Qiushui Mountain Villa makes a move, what should he do if he can't guard against it?After much deliberation, Zhao Xiyan concluded that Qiushui Villa would most likely attack his women and children first, especially the queen and Qiyi.At his age and position, he can't afford to lose anything, so he can only protect it carefully.Zhao Xiyan ordered in private that all concubines, princes, and princesses should be tested for drugs in their food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and they must pay special attention to it, and they are not allowed to leave the palace without purpose.The enemy is in the dark, but he feels in the light, and he really has no idea.

After thinking about it for several days, Zhao Xiyan still made up his mind.That night he summoned Baoqing County's Ma Jingong to drink, and Qin Huaian was the one who drank a lot, and Zhao Xiyan just made himself smell of alcohol.Then he pretended to be drunk and waited for the people in the respect room to ask him to turn over the cards. He flipped the sign of Concubine Xian for the first time, and then Xiangyun sent him to Yaohua Palace.When Qiu Ruyu received the report from the respect room, she couldn't believe her ears, the emperor turned over her sign and asked her to serve him in bed.Similarly, the entire palace was shocked by Concubine Xian's return to favor, and many people couldn't figure out what the emperor was thinking.Qiu Ruyu originally thought that Zhao Xiyan would pamper her tonight, but she mustered up her courage, but she never thought that Zhao Xiyan just came to sleep and didn't touch her with a single finger.The next day, Zhao Xiyan said some caring and ambiguous words, and went to court.

The emperor stayed at Yaohua Palace for three days in a row, but Zhao Xiyan never touched Qiu Ruyu every time.Qiu Ruyu was only superficially beautiful, and she was suffering unspeakably. Even when Han Qiuyi came to ask her, she was too embarrassed to say that the emperor hadn't touched her.Han Qiuyi believed that Zhao Xiyan really doted on Qiu Ruyu, because the emperor also favored Concubine De because he was drunk before, and now it is not surprising that he dotes on Concubine Xian when he is drunk.After all, Zhao Xiyan is that person's child, and it's normal whether he is playful or hypocritical.Han Qiuyi got a lot of assisted-pregnancy meals and told Qiu Ruyu to eat them. Qiu Ruyu knew that Zhao Xiyan had never touched her, even if she ate all the assisted-pregnancy meals in the world, she couldn't make up a child, but she still ate them.She couldn't let people know that the emperor came to her palace for three consecutive days just to sleep and never touched her at all. She couldn't afford to lose her face.

Zhao Xiyan concocted this scene in the same way, just to see Han Qiuyi's reaction.He is very satisfied with the response he has received now.When a person is successful, it is easy to show his feet.It just so happened that Zhao Xiyan's secret guard found the account book of the Minister of the Household Department that should have been burned in a fire many years ago. Although King Lixin has been dead for so many years, this account book is still of great use.It helped Zhao Xiyan shave off the moths hiding in the dark from the court hall, and it even made Zhao Xiyan discover that Qiushui Villa also had illegal salt and pig iron.Zhao Xiyan's secret guard followed the vine and broke into the bottom of the private salt business in Qiushui Mountain Villa. This is the best news in a long time.On the eighth day of the sixth day of Tianyuan, Zhao Xiyan turned over the sign of the concubine Xian again. On the eve of the New Year's Eve, he went to Weiyang Palace on the first day of the new year, Fengqi Palace on the second day of the new year, Huashi Palace on the third day, Ganquan Palace on the fourth day, I had a rest on the fifth day, went to Cuiwei Palace on the sixth day, and turned over the signboard of Yaohua Palace on the eighth day.The bitterness in Qiu Ruyu's heart was about to overflow, she didn't understand why Zhao Xiyan pretended to be fond of her on the surface, but actually just came to Yaohua Palace to sleep for a night.If he doesn't want to touch him, then it's fine if he doesn't come, why bother to humiliate himself like this?On the night of the eighth day of the lunar new year, Zhao Xiyan ate dinner at Weiyang Palace, and drove to Yaohua Palace to stay overnight.Qiu Ruyu was waiting outside the door in a blue and white cloak, Zhao Xiyan stepped out of the sedan chair, held Qiu Ruyu's hand affectionately, and led her into the bedroom.Who looked at it and didn't think that Concubine Xian was favored?As soon as the door of the sleeping hall was closed, after the maids had finished serving the two masters to wash up, Zhao Xiyan let go of them as soon as they left, and just lay down on the bed.Qiu Ruyu could only take off her coat in embarrassment, and lay down next to Zhao Xiyan.Whenever Qiu Ruyu lay on the bed, Zhao Xiyan would move away from her, and tonight was no exception.Zhao Xiyan covered the quilt and slept on the outermost side. There was an ocean between the two of them, and there was no pressure to lie alone.Despite the flickering red candles and the presence of a beauty, everything was as quiet as stagnant water.Qiu Ruyu looked at Zhao Xiyan who was about to fall asleep with her eyes closed, she couldn't help the grievances and doubts in her heart.

"emperor."

"emperor?"

"emperor!"

Zhao Xiyan didn't dare to sleep to death in Qiu Ruyu's palace, he heard Qiu Ruyu calling him, and only pretended to be dissatisfied when he heard Qiu Ruyu calling him, and replied to her when he was not woken up.

"I'll talk about it tomorrow if you have anything to do. I'm going to court early tomorrow."

Zhao Xiyan used this sentence every time to quiet Qiu Ruyu, but this time Qiu Ruyu couldn't help it.She had forgotten that she was just a little lucky, and Zhao Xiyan was brought into the palace because she was pregnant with the emperor's heir.She was originally the lowest and most humble business girl.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be so reluctant, let's go back to Weiyang Palace."

"Concubine Xian, don't talk too much, I'm going to sleep."

"Why does the emperor act like he loves his concubines?"

Qiu Ruyu sat up, hoping that Zhao Xiyan could answer her question.But Zhao Xiyan didn't want to answer her at all, nor did he want to explain.Because explanations are useless, she shouldn't know many things.

"The emperor obviously doesn't like concubines."

"Does the emperor know that this is like being in the heart of Ling Chi's concubine?"

"Why did the emperor humiliate his concubines?"

After hearing the last sentence, Zhao Xiyan gritted his teeth and held back his breath.He really wanted to dig out Qiu Ruyu's brain and heart to see what was inside.He is Shisan's elder brother, she herself is Shisan's woman, she also gave birth to a son for Shisan, can she still blatantly court her husband's elder brother like this?Although she was just one of the women Shisan played with, he didn't take her seriously.But after all, she gave birth to Shisan's son. Could it be possible that one maid and two husbands would give birth to him, two children and two fathers?Zhao Xiyan closed her eyes and tried hard to hold back her anger, turned her back to Qiu Ruyu and ignored her.But he never thought that Qiu Ruyu would take off his clothes and belts without him knowing, leaning close to Zhao Xiyan's back with nothing on his body, and volunteering to sacrifice himself.Zhao Xiyan was shocked when he felt the softness and warmth of his back.
