Ji Huai stayed in Jingyang Palace continuously, and the concubines in all the palaces were very jealous.
Even though Song Wan kept a low profile and prohibited the eunuchs and maids in the palace from spreading rumors, she had already become the center of public opinion.
However, compared to being ridiculed and insulted by others, she felt that it was not bad to be the "favorite concubine" in the eyes of others.
At this time, her brother had been on the war for some time, and her parents must have been very worried. After enduring it for a few days, she still proposed to Ji Huai that she wanted to invite her mother to the palace for a reunion.
In this situation, she was afraid that the other party would think too much, so she explained, "My brother is going away for the first time, and my mother will inevitably miss her. My sister-in-law is about to give birth again, and I am also worried about the situation at home. In addition, I have not seen my mother for a long time, so I miss her very much." .”
Before Ji Huai could reply, her eyes dimmed a little, "I was ill last time, and I haven't recovered for a long time. The discomfort also reminded me that when I was young, I would be sick for a long time, and my mother would come every day. Put me to sleep in your room."
Her eyes were slightly red as she burst into tears, and she did not dare to mention her father or other matters at home during the whole process.
"I didn't say I couldn't. If you miss her, let Mrs. Song come in to accompany you, or stay for a few days." Ji Huai answered her.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." When Song Wan said this, she carefully observed the expression on his face. Seeing that he had no other reaction, she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
What Ji Huai promised was always done quickly, and Mrs. Song entered the palace the next day with her waist badge.
After entering the Jingyang Palace, Mrs. Song bowed to Song Wan in a formal manner and said, "My wife has seen Concubine Shu. May your concubine be safe and sound."
Song Wan hurriedly stepped forward and reached out to help her mother, but the other party insisted on saluting her. There were many more servants in the room, so she said, "You all can go out."
"yes."
The slaves bowed their heads and exited, closing the door gently.
There was no one else around, Song Wan looked at Mrs. Song, stepped forward to hold her hand, and called out like a child, "Mother."
This act of coquettishness is different from the act of coquettishness with Ji Huai. There is no need to please, it is pure and simple. Seeing the other party is happy, but also feels a little aggrieved and a little willful.
Mrs. Song gently patted the back of her hand and asked, "Has Wan'er recovered recently?"
"I've been sick for half a month and I'm fine." After Song Wan finished speaking, he asked anxiously, "Mom, how is the family now? Brother..."
"Everything is fine. Mei'er will give birth in a few days. Lord Marquis and I are in good health. Don't worry too much." Mrs. Song interrupted her.
Song Wan's expression slowly calmed down, and it was inevitable to feel a little sad when he saw his mother like this.
Mrs. Song looked at her, and just raised her hand to touch her head. Her face was also tinged with solemnity, "The emperor chose a show and accepted many concubines. This is natural, and it is a matter of course. You cannot be willful. This punishment If I kill you, you must remember the lesson."
"There is no comparison between the palace and the palace. I can only protect myself. I didn't want to enter the palace, but after all I couldn't worry about you, so I went in anyway. Let's forget it this time. Wan'er, listen to mother, from now on, with Ning'an Hou The government has cut off contact and will no longer care about you, let alone interfere. If the emperor shows mercy and gives birth to a prince as soon as possible, you will have someone to rely on in the future."
The emperor has taken action against the Song family. No one knows what will happen next after handing over military power. Accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger. If misfortune occurs, Song Wan, who only wants to cut off contact with the An family, can also keep a place in the palace.
Their decision was also well-intentioned.
Song Wan looked at Mrs. Song, tears rolling down her cheeks.
Although Mrs. Song was distressed, she was not soft-hearted, "Today is different from the past. There are many concubines in the palace. The emperor still has some feelings for you in the past. Heirs are a big deal. You should take it seriously. The emperor doesn't know when he will marry. If he really does, Until then, I don’t know what the situation will be like.”
"Daughter, even if you gamble, you have to gamble."
…
Mrs. Song left the palace two hours after entering the palace. There was no food. When she left, the other party only asked Song Wan a few words, "Do you want to take Bizi Decoction?"
She shook her head.
"Are you still okay?"
After receiving her affirmation, Mrs. Song stopped asking any more questions. When she left, she took a deep look at her and then turned around and left cruelly.
Ever since Mrs. Song left, Song Wan had been sitting alone in the house, not knowing what to think, motionless.
She had been with the emperor for a long time, and she had only been in the palace for a year. She had not yet given birth to a son and a half, and Mrs. Song already knew the reason without asking in detail.
Even if he didn't have to avoid Zitang, the emperor still had a way to prevent her from conceiving a child. For example, he had a regular schedule for having sex with her before. If it hadn't been for those few days, he would have been very restrained and would not leave the dragon essence in her body.
The emperor clearly did not want the eldest son and princess to come out of her belly. What if the bet failed at this time
If according to the emperor's current love for her, she is somewhat sure that he will lose control, and there may be a glimmer of hope.
The emperor's first child will be different from other concubines, but what if it fails
If the emperor did not allow her to be born, the child would eventually die quietly in her belly.
When Ji Huai came in, he saw her worried look on Zhongzhong, and didn't even notice that he was approaching.
"What are you thinking about so deeply?" he suddenly said.
Song Wan was startled, and when she saw him, she hurriedly stood up to salute.
"No need to salute." Ji Huai walked to her side and looked left and right, "I heard that Mrs. Song has entered the palace, why didn't she see anyone?"
"Mother left the palace two-quarters of an hour ago," she replied.
"Why don't I chat with you for a while? Why are you leaving in such a hurry?" Ji Huai was puzzled and even frowned.
"There are still things in the house, and it's all up to my mother to take care of them. I'm used to living a comfortable life in the palace. I'm afraid that if I get sick in my free time, I'll think about it and ask the emperor to let my mother enter the palace. It's really inappropriate." Song Wan He sighed helplessly.
Ji Huai: "What should I do? I can see you if you want."
Song Wan originally wanted to ask about her brother's situation, and also wanted to tell the emperor that her father was loyal and her brother was devoted to the people, but she remembered what her mother said, but she held it back.
"You want to tell me something?" Ji Huai saw her confusion and spoke first.
A slight smile appeared on Song Wan's lips. She stepped forward and hugged his waist intimately. She smiled brightly and said, "I miss you, Your Majesty. When my mother came today, I was shocked to realize that I haven't seen my family for a long time. Here. In the palace, I only have the emperor, so when I see the emperor coming, I am naturally happy."
"Did you cry?" Ji Huai put his hand on her eyes, which were still a little red.
"I was a little excited when I saw my mother, so I cried. I am delicate and have shallow eye sockets, and the emperor is not ignorant." Song Wan hid in his arms, "I was a little sad at first, but when the emperor came, I was happy. "
"Here I am, isn't your smile too far-fetched?" Ji Huai smiled and exposed her.
"I am happy to see the emperor, but my joy is slowly revealed, and I have wronged him for not obeying the emperor." Song Wan pretended to be cool, but tightened her hand holding him.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault. I'll have dinner with you later." Ji Huai pulled her to the side, sat down and held her on his lap, circling her slim waist.
Song Wan pretended to struggle for a moment, but actually leaned against him, looking at him with flowing eyes, "The emperor has admitted his mistake, so I naturally have no choice but to forgive him."
Ji Huai watched her open and close her pink lips, then leaned forward and kissed her twice.
She hummed twice, and her little teeth suddenly bit his thin lips. Ji Huai's eyes flashed slightly, his body tensed, and then he kissed her, "Smart teeth."
"The emperor praises me again." Song Wan's face was full of shyness. Her delicate jade hands touched his thick eyebrows and straight nose. She thought it was a sudden thought and said, "Every time I see the emperor's face, I will be obsessed with it, so I want to give the emperor a little princess.”
"Why the little princess and not the little prince?" Ji Huai raised his eyebrows in confusion.
"The little prince is naughty, and I am stupid. Although I must be very patient and loving towards the emperor's blood, I will definitely not be able to teach him. If I give birth to a little princess, I will be well-behaved and considerate." She said with some expectation in her eyes, looking at him , raised her slender hand, with tenderness in her eyes, "The emperor has beautiful eyes, a beautiful nose, and everything is beautiful. As long as you follow the emperor, I will be happy to see you."
"What if I, the little princess, follow your stupidity?" Ji Huai saw that she was nervous about testing and teased her out loud.
"How could I be so stupid?" Song Wan became anxious and complained loudly, "The emperor is bullying others."
"My beloved concubine just said this herself, and I have wronged you again? I was just following my beloved concubine's words." He smiled wider, reminding her.
Song Wanyuan didn't come back, her eyes twinkled, she looked at him smiling and feeling embarrassed, and finally she just hid in his arms and acted like a fool, "Then I don't care, so just give birth to a little princess. It's best to just follow my stupidity. A concubine who has no self-awareness can only look at the little princess and reflect on how stupid she is."
"If she was smart, wouldn't she bully me? It's pitiful that I was bullied by the emperor, but it would be even more pitiful if I was bullied by the little princess."
"But the emperor's bloodline is definitely not as stupid as my concubine, and I'm afraid he will bully me in the end."
She said and looked up at him again. Ji Huai didn't seem displeased, but kept smiling. His face was much softer and approachable, which made her braver and bolder. "As long as he is the child of the concubine and the emperor, even if he is bullied, , I am also happy."
After saying that, she looked at him, wanting to see his reaction and also want a feedback. It was a test.
The little princess poses no less of a threat than the little prince.
But Song Wan actually regretted it when she said it. His connivance during this period made her a little confused. She had already done this without thinking too much.
The words have been spoken and cannot be taken back.
"How can there be any reason to bully a biological mother? My beloved concubine is worrying too much." Ji Huai naturally continued her words.
"I'm afraid." Song Wan smiled and lowered her eyes, her eyes restrained with hope. The emperor replied to her with a harmless word, which was probably a rejection.
She can't gamble anymore.
I still feel so sad in my heart. Isn’t it okay to give birth to a little princess? So what should she do? What does the emperor's kindness to her recently mean
If you love someone enough, you can't be rational and you can't control your emotions. She buried her head in his arms, her heart aching.
Ji Huai put his hand on her back, his voice was low and mellow, and he said slowly, "What's so scary? If you give birth to a prince, I will teach you personally. If you give birth to a princess, she will be raised with you, and I will not let her take care of her." You bullied me."
Song Wan was just sad, and when he said this again, she changed her mind again. She put her head on his shoulder, turned her face sideways, and couldn't help but said, "When the little princess bullies me, the emperor can't just stand by and watch." ."
"Yeah." He replied.
"Your Majesty is the best." Song Wan said with a smile.
She didn't know what he really thought, but as long as he was willing to say nice things to coax her, this little princess might have some hope.
