After Ruan Xi's carriage arrived at the palace, she got out of the carriage with the support of Mama Yang and Suyu.
She stroked her swollen belly, looked at the surrounding tall palace walls, clean and spacious lanes, and sighed silently.
"Miss Si, please follow the servants."
Yaohong leads the way.
Ruan Xi followed slowly behind, supported by Mother Yang and Suyu, walked around the long palace wall, and after about a stick of incense time, finally arrived in front of Ruan Sanniang's palace - Roufu Palace.
At this time, beads of sweat appeared on Ruan Xi's face, showing a little tiredness.
If she hadn't walked around Yongheju every morning and evening, she would have been exhausted long ago.
Obviously Ruan Sanniang has already reached this level.
A pregnant woman who is five months pregnant, regardless of whether it is true or false, this journey is enough for Ruan Xi, a young lady who does not leave the gate without leaving the door.
"Miss, this servant will help you wipe off your sweat."
Suyu looked distressed, and quickly took out a clean handkerchief to wipe the lady's sweat.
"Young Madam, you can rest on the old slave first." Mother Yang said distressedly.
"Well, please trouble Mama Yang."
Ruan Xi didn't refuse, she leaned on Mama Yang's body, she was indeed tired.
"Miss Si, please wait for a while, and the maidservant will go in and let you know." Yao Hong lowered her head and dared not look at Ruan Xi, and after bowing respectfully to Fushen, she quickly stepped into Roufu Palace.
The three of Ruan Xi waited outside.
On the other hand, after Wen Tingzhou heard the news that Ruan Sanniang had called Ruan Xi into the palace, he entered the palace anxiously to meet the emperor. The emperor had already learned about her actions from the female guard who monitored Ruan Sanniang. Watching Ruan Sanniang toss Wen Tingzhou's pregnant wife.
"Tingzhou, don't worry, I won't let Concubine Ruan mess around, and your wife will be fine." The old emperor took a sip from the cup of tea on the table, and looked at Wen Tingzhou's slightly anxious handsome face with a smile.
Wen Tingzhou pursed his lips and said, "I'm still worried about my wife."
The corner of the old emperor's mouth twitched.
"Forget it, I will take you to Roufu Palace later!"
Wen Tingzhou breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly said: "I thank the emperor!"
The old emperor shook his head angrily and amusedly, and sent someone to Roufu Palace to investigate the situation.
Roufu Palace
Ruan Sanniang sat in front of the bronze mirror and looked at the beautiful woman in the mirror. The more she looked at the beautiful woman, the more uncomfortable she felt. She was at the age of a flower bone, and she was beautiful like a flower, but she could only take advantage of the old emperor and that bad old man.
Compared with the fourth sister who married a handsome husband with a good family background, amazing talent and clean personality, I really can't be reconciled.
It's all Qi Yue'an's fault!
However, Qi Yue'an lost her and did not marry the fourth younger sister. Up to now, he is still an ignorant dude who only eats, drinks and has fun. Ruan Sanniang is even more jealous of the fourth younger sister while her heart is balanced.
The fourth sister is not only lucky, but also prosperous.
In the previous life, Wen Tingzhou was not as glorious as it is now.
It must be the original owner's bad fate, which made her suffer.
The more Ruan Sanniang thought about it, the more resentful she became.
Since God allowed her to time travel and be reborn, why not let her transmigrate or be reborn as the fourth sister
Yao Zi was helping her dress up, seeing that the master's expression was not right, she quickly lowered her eyes.
"Come here, let's see when my fourth sister will arrive?"
Ruan Sanniang shouted angrily.
"Yes, ma'am."
A court lady respectfully came out of the palace. As soon as she stepped out of the palace gate, she saw the girl Yaohong who had come back. She was overjoyed and told her quickly, and Yaohong went in.
"Yaohong, you are back, where is fourth sister?"
The moment Ruan Sanniang in the palace saw Yaohong coming in, her eyes lit up immediately.
"If you go back to your mother, the fourth lady will wait at the gate of the palace." Yaohong hurriedly replied respectfully.
"Here we come!"
Ruan Sanniang looked at the bright and charming woman in the bronze mirror, and the beautiful face of the fourth sister appeared in her mind, and her eyes rolled.
"Yaohong, go tell Simei that Ben Gong is taking a nap, and ask Simei to wait a little longer."
Yaohong quickly responded, and retreated with a complicated mind.
Ruan Xi, who was waiting outside, saw Yao Hong coming out, Yao Hong's expression was wrong, and there was a guilty conscience in her eyes.
Ruan Xi raised his eyebrows.
It seemed that Ruan Sanniang might not let her in so easily.
And indeed it is.
Yaohong said apologetically, "Miss Si, the empress is taking a nap, please wait a little longer, the empress should wake up soon."
A flash of anger flashed in Su Yu's eyes.
Miss San was too much, she didn't wake up from her afternoon nap, it was just an excuse, she was playing tricks on the pregnant young lady.
Ruan Xi pressed Suyu's hand to make her calm down, then gently stroked her protruding abdomen, and said with a smile: "Then I'll wait a little longer, but I'm inconvenient and I just walked a long way Lu, I'm so tired that if something happens, it will be my fault that people misunderstand Third Sister."
She was just discussing the matter, um, absolutely no threat.
Mother Yang glanced at the young lady appreciatively.
Yaohong's face froze, Miss Si's situation is special, if something happens, the empress will probably let her take the lead.
"Slaves, please go in and ask for instructions."
I'm about to go in.
"Wait, I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat? You know, pregnant women are easy to get hungry. I just walked such a long way, and I'm a bit exhausted." Ruan Xi pretended to be embarrassed and covered her swollen belly.
Yaohong paused, her face became more rigid: "This servant also needs to ask for instructions."
The empress made it clear that she wanted to torment Miss Fourth, how could she dare to call the shots.
Ruan Xi pretended to be surprised and looked at her: "I have to ask for instructions even for this, isn't Third Sister taking a nap?"
Yao Hong's face turned red instantly, and she fled in despair.
Ruan Xi looked at Yaohong's fleeing back, slightly raised the corners of her lips, and smiled calmly, ignoring the sneaking gazes around her.
After a while, Yaohong came out in a hurry, bowed her head and said respectfully.
"Miss Si, Your Majesty has woken up. I am very happy to know that you have arrived. I just want to see you!"
What Yaohong said...even she couldn't convince herself.
No, I dare not meet her eyes.
Ruan Xi glanced at Yao Hong with a half-smile, "Let's go, don't make Third Sister wait."
Speaking of stepping on the steps of the palace, Mama Yang and Suyu hurried forward to support Ruan Xi.
Yaohong secretly wiped off the cold sweat.
How does the empress compare with Miss Fourth
As soon as she entered the palace, Ruan Xi was struck by the luxurious style of the palace.
The well-dressed Ruan Sanniang was sitting on the imperial concubine's couch eating fresh grapes, while several pretty maids were fanning and beating their legs.
The end is extremely comfortable.
"Greetings to the empress!"
Ruan Xi bowed his knees as soon as he entered, and his etiquette was impeccable.
Mama Yang and Suyu followed suit and saluted.
When Ruan Sanniang saw Fourth Sister bowing to her, a flash of pride flashed in her eyes, but she said, "Oh, Fourth Sister, hurry up, we are good sisters, you don't have to be so polite."
Ruan Xi straightened up and smiled slightly: "Courtesy cannot be discarded."
Who knows if Ruan Sanniang will make a fuss about it, there is no big mistake in being careful.
A look of disappointment flashed in Ruan Sanniang's eyes, Fourth Sister was really cautious.
Her eyes fell on Fourth Sister's swollen belly, her eyes darkened.
"Fourth sister, are you really pregnant?"
She wanted to torment the fourth sister, but who knew that the fourth sister would make a fuss about her stomach, and she didn't dare to gamble, this torment was nothing, Ruan Sanniang felt aggrieved for a while.
But that doesn't mean she gave up.
Ruan Xi stroked her belly and continued to smile: "Yes, it's been five months."
Ruan Sanniang's smile was distorted for a moment, she took a deep breath, her eyes froze on Ruan Xi's smooth and rosy face without makeup, she didn't know what to do, a flash of ecstasy flashed in her eyes, she opened her mouth with a smile.
"Fourth sister, I heard that you can feel the fetal movement in the fifth month of pregnancy. I am preparing for pregnancy recently. Can I touch your belly to feel happy?"
But she was sneering in her heart. After more than five months of pregnancy, her face was as smooth as before, and she couldn't even see the spots. It must be a fake pregnancy.
Seeing that the fourth sister has never directed a miscarriage scene, maybe a civet cat will come to replace the prince.
She must expose her.
Ruan Sanniang didn't know that not all pregnant women would have spots on their faces, and judging other people's fake pregnancies from this point is also weird.
At this time, Ruan Sanniang looked malicious.
Suyu guarded Ruan Xi nervously and vigilantly.
Mother Yang's nerves tensed up.
Ruan Xi's eyes flickered slightly. To be honest, she really didn't want Ruan Sanniang to come close to her and touch her stomach.
Who knows if she will deliberately miss...
Ruan Xi dare not bet on Ruan Sanniang's character.
But what Ruan Sanniang said was good, she was just happy, and Ruan Xi had no reason to refuse.
At this time, the eunuch's sharp and loud voice came from outside the palace.
"The emperor is here!"
Ruan Xi's heart relaxed, a light flashed in his eyes, the emperor came just in time.
Suyu and Yang's mother also let go of their hanging hearts at the same time.
Only Ruan Sanniang was very annoyed, she was almost able to find out whether the fourth sister was really pregnant.
Damn old emperor, spoil her good deeds.
Ruan Sanniang was quite unwilling, but no matter how unwilling she was, she dared not challenge the majesty of the old emperor, and hurriedly arranged her appearance to welcome the emperor.
Emperor Sheng De, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, strode in, followed by a handsome and tall black figure.
The maid mother in the hall knelt on the ground.
"My concubine pays my respects to the emperor!"
Ruan Sanniang at the front quickly bowed her knees and saluted.
Ruan Xi knelt down with the support of Mother Yang and Suyu.
"Wen Ruan sees the emperor!"
"Get up." There was a touch of majesty in Emperor Shengde's indifferent words.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Ruan Sanniang was the first to get up, slandering this evil feudal society in her heart, every time the old emperor came over, she had to bow her knees and salute, but when she saw the handsome man behind the old emperor, she gritted her teeth in her heart, feeling jealous and hated towards the fourth sister.
She just invited the fourth younger sister to the palace to reminisce about the old days, but Wen Tingzhou followed her worriedly.
It's really affectionate.
Why is Simei always so lucky
Obviously she is the heroine who took the golden finger through rebirth.
Ruan Xi also thanked En and stood up, but still lowered her head.
It is not allowed to look directly at Tianyan without permission.
Even with his head down, Ruan Xi could still feel the gaze from above his head.
Emperor Shengde looked at the woman who stood quietly with her head bowed, her hands folded between her protruding abdomen, and she was full of elegance and demure temperament, slightly surprised.
Tingzhou's vision is really good.
This concubine from the uncle's mansion is actually more like a concubine than Concubine Ruan.
Well, the noble daughters raised by the aristocratic families are not inferior.
Sincerity Bo gave birth to a good daughter!
When Emperor Shengde looked at Ruan Xi, Ruan Sanniang had a thought, if she exposed the fake pregnancy of the fourth younger sister in front of the old emperor and Wen Tingzhou, she would be excited when she thought about it, and she would act when she thought about it, Ruan Sanniang suddenly smiled coquettishly.
"Your Majesty, this is the fourth sister who is a concubine. She has been pregnant for five months. The concubine specially called her into the palace. Apart from reminiscing about the old days, she just wanted to touch her belly and be happy with her, so as to serve her well." Your majesty spreads the branches and spreads the leaves.”
The corner of Ruan Xi's mouth twitched with his head down.
Emperor Shengde slightly raised his eyebrows.
"So it's like this, there's no need to worry about the concubine's heir, there will be one sooner or later."
Emperor Shengde actually didn't intend to let Ruan Sanniang, who was thoughtless and selfish, give birth to his heir.
Lest a disaster be born from time to time.
He turned to look at Ruan Xi.
"Wen Ruan, raise your head and speak."
Ruan Xi raised her head from Shan Ruliu, this time, she was able to see the sky.
As the father of the male lead and the fourth prince, Emperor Shengde certainly looks good. He looks in his early forties, has a well-maintained body, has not gained weight, and has a majestic aura.
Ruan Xi just took a quick look and then his eyes fell on the handsome man behind him.
It's Wen Tingzhou!
he came!
The moment Ruan Xi saw Wen Tingzhou, his heart was slightly excited, and the corners of his brows and eyes were filled with joy.
Wen Tingzhou looked at Ruan Xi with distressed and worried eyes. He knew that Ruan Ruan had walked a long way, and he was probably exhausted. Did he feel unwell
Emperor Shengde: "..."
Don't think that he didn't see the flirting between the young couple, Wen Ruan was indeed born with a beautiful face, and Tingzhou was like a pair of golden boy and jade girl, they matched very well.
There was a gloomy look in Ruan Sanniang's eyes, and her long nails dug into the palm of her hand.
It's dazzling!
I'll see if you can still be so affectionate.
