Deng Zhiqiu was so angry: "What are you talking about? You can't even take a look at the son I gave birth to? What's the rule? Call the housekeeper."
Marrying maid: "Madam, I can't even see the housekeeper, let alone ask him to come."
The wall fell down and everyone pushed it.
The servants in the palace didn't like Deng Zhiqiu to begin with.
Because Zhu Ming doted on her before, the housekeeper and others were still polite to Deng Zhiqiu on the surface.
Now that Zhu Ping is not here, everyone no longer even wants to pretend to Deng Zhiqiu.
Deng Zhiqiu frowned: "Is it possible that you are the only one here now?"
The dowry maid pursed her lips and remained silent.
Of course there are others, but those few are eating melon seeds and gossiping at the moment, so they wouldn't feel uncomfortable coming here.
Deng Zhiqiu said: "Call the person in charge."
Married maids can only go out.
After a while, an older maid came in and saluted Deng Zhiqiu perfunctorily.
Deng Zhiqiu: "Go and bring the crown prince here for me to see."
The maid in charge said calmly: "My queen, His Highness also told you face to face that day. It was all the Emperor's will. We servants have nothing to do. We are all the same, so why bother making things difficult for each other."
Deng Zhiqiu stood up and said, "You bastards are really not big or small now. Let me tear your mouth apart."
The maid in charge ran out long ago.
Deng Zhiqiu was still weak and could not run, so he had to give up.
Besides, if you still expect these people to deliver three meals a day, what else can you do?
The maid in charge went out and said in the courtyard: "Haha, you really don't know how to live or die. She is just a concubine now, with no rank or status. If His Highness doesn't like her anymore, she will really be a cheap maid."
"If Your Highness doesn't favor her, it will be a matter of time. Her figure and appearance have changed drastically after giving birth. Now she is an old woman. Do you still think she is still a little girl? There are fewer concubines in our palace who are younger and more beautiful than her. Your Highness I only have a bit of friendship with her when I was young. I already like someone else in my heart."
"I heard that His Highness has been staying at Gu Concubine's place for the past few days. Now King Qin is not as indifferent to the concubines as before. I see that they are very affectionate."
Deng Zhiqiu's escort maid whispered: "Miss, please be patient. As long as you are out of confinement and can coax His Highness to change his mind, life will naturally be easier."
The more Deng Zhiqiu listened, the more her heart grew colder. Although she was angry, she also understood that what they said was right. She was only able to speak the right words in the palace just because Zhu Fang liked her and her father's reputation.
If Zhu Xi really didn't like her, she would never have a good life from now on.
For the sake of her son, she could no longer be as willful as she had been in the past, and she had to be more energetic.
He no longer dared to say anything about looking after the children, and his attitude towards the maids was much gentler.
After confinement, Deng Zhiqiu took a bath, changed clothes, dressed himself up, and waited on the way back from the front yard.
Zhu Xi hadn't seen Deng Zhiqiu for many days, but he actually missed him very much.
It's just that this time he was cruel to make her wake up, and he didn't want her to be always angry and suffer from confinement sickness during her confinement, so he didn't visit her in the past few days.
Deng Zhiqiu saluted with tears streaming down his face: "Your Highness, I was wrong. I was unwell that day and talked a lot of nonsense. I beg Your Highness to atone for my sins."
Seeing Deng Zhiqiu cry, Zhu Xiang felt half softened. When he heard her admitting her mistake again, he lost even the slightest bit of temper.
He pulled Deng Zhiqiu into his arms: "Oh... I'm not angry with you, it's all for my son."
He hugged Deng Zhiqiu and went to Deng Zhiqiu's room, closed the door, and whispered: "My son recognizes Wang Xiaoyue as his mother-in-law. No matter how many other concubines he has in the future, isn't our son the eldest son? Besides, you gave birth to him." One scene, he may not really deny you. Although Zhu Fan and I were around the queen a lot when we were young, but our hearts are different and we still miss our own mother? Those are all false. The father is also good for the children. Just be patient. one time."
Deng Zhiqiu couldn't help but lean into Zhu Ping's arms and cry: I have always been told to be patient. Haven't I endured enough?
That woman took away my title as a royal concubine, and now she wants to take away my title as a mother.
Now he is so despicable that he took advantage of my confinement to add insult to injury.
Zhu Ming gently stroked her back: "Don't be sad. You have just given birth and are always crying. Your eyes will shed tears in the future. As long as you are the princess in my heart, it doesn't matter what others say."
He caught a glimpse of a bowl of leftover porridge on the table and frowned at it for a while before realizing that it was Deng Zhiqiu's leftovers.
Although he scolded Deng Zhiqiu that day, Deng Zhiqiu still held the key to the house. He never imagined that someone would dare to treat her like this. He was angry and distressed, so he called the maid in charge.
The maid in charge came in trembling, and without saying a word, Zhu Xi kicked her in the chest: "You bitch maid. I told you to serve me well, but you dare to do this to my woman. Are you tired of living?"
The maid in charge remembered that she had taken away all the unfinished food last night. When she saw the leftover porridge on the table, she realized that Deng Zhiqiu must have hidden it secretly, deliberately letting Zhu Ping see it.
She didn't dare to defend herself, she just kowtowed: "Your Highness, please spare my life."
Deng Zhiqiu hugged Zhu Ping and said, "Your Highness, please stop beating her. I don't want to offend anyone. She also obeys orders."
Zhu Fang gritted his teeth: "That bitch still dares to play such a trick."
Deng Zhiqiu said: "It doesn't matter how she treats me. I just want to see my son. I gave birth to him, only took one look at him, and then he was taken away. Now he is one month old, and I have never seen him again. My wife Miss him."
"This is easy." Zhu Ping hurriedly asked someone to bring the prince.
As a result, the maid went to accompany the bride and came back empty-handed: "The princess said that the prince had just fallen asleep and did not want to wake him up. The prince wants to see it, and we will talk about it another day."
Zhu Xi frowned: "What's going on? I can't even see my son if I want to?"
Isn't this a joke?
The maid looked aggrieved.
Deng Zhiqiu looked horrified and grabbed Zhu Xi's hand: "That bitch is using the child to blackmail us and take revenge on us. Xi, you must not give the child to her!!"
Zhu Ming suddenly woke up and said to Deng Zhiqiu: "Wait a moment, I will go and bring the child."
He angrily walked straight from the courtyard where Deng Zhiqiu lived into the inner courtyard, and saw Wang Xiaoyue holding her child and sunbathing in the courtyard.
He waved his hand and the guards rushed forward.
The wet nurse was frightened.
Wang Xiaoyue said coldly: "What are you doing? Does your Highness still want to grab it hard?"
Zhu Xiang's face darkened: "Did you make a mistake? This is my son. Doesn't it mean that I need your consent to see my son? You really used a chicken feather as a command arrow and forgot what your situation was. . If you know the truth, hand over the child. You won’t look good if I don’t wait until the king takes action.”
