"The Imperial Concubine." A woman's voice came from behind.
Xie Ziyue and her group paused.
Gu Xuan also turned her head from the mother-in-law's arms - she remembered this voice, it was the voice of Concubine De.
Because Concubine De's voice was very special, like that of an oriole, Gu Xuan was deeply impressed when she was still in her mother's womb.
Although I haven’t heard of it for a long time after I was born, I still have an impression on it.
Xie Ziyue naturally didn't know what her precious daughter was thinking, but after she turned her head, Concubine De was standing not far away with a large group of people.
"I pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine." Seeing Xie Ziyue, Concubine De turned around and stepped forward a few steps to salute.
She was wearing a green dress today, and her beautiful face complemented the pleasingly growing willow tree, which made her look particularly beautiful.
Xie Ziyue signaled that she didn't need to be polite, and was a little confused as to why she stopped her here.
But when she looked at Concubine De, she found that Concubine De's eyes were not on her, but on her daughter in her arms.
"The princess looks even more adorable."
Concubine De looked at the cute little baby in Xie Ziyue's arms with some trance.
The beautiful baby is wearing exquisitely cut clothes, with its chubby little hands exposed and a small bracelet on its wrist. At first glance, it looks like an extremely well-raised child.
She was so cute in Xie Ziyue's arms, and she was still making lovely sounds that made people's hearts melt.
Concubine De felt like she was in a daze. At this moment, she was rudely staring at Gu Xuan in Xie Ziyue's arms, and suddenly wanted to hug her.
After her miscarriage, she desperately needed a spiritual sustenance, but there were no other children in the palace, only the eldest princess born to Xie Ziyue.
She always thought uncontrollably about what it would be like to be born in the future if nothing happened to her child.
When Gu Xuan was still in Xie Ziyue's belly, she had not yet had a miscarriage.
Now that Gu Xuan was born safely, she looked at the cute Gu Xuan and squeezed her fingers slightly.
"Concubine De?" Xie Ziyue couldn't help shouting when she saw her looking blankly at her daughter in her arms.
"...The little princess is so cute, she looks very similar to the empress." Concubine De's eyes were still on Gu Xuan.
"Your Majesty..." Concubine De's maid looked at her master worriedly. Concubine De looked quite crazy now.
Some things really have to be lost before you know how to cherish them. When Concubine De had no miscarriage, she didn't pay much attention to the child, but when she lost it, she realized the pain later.
Although the relationship between Xie Ziyue and De Fei was not close friends, they were still close friends. The two often interacted together in the past.
Later, she had a daughter. Concubine De was afraid that she would be hurt if she saw the little one, so she never came to Weiyang Palace again.
At this time, when she saw that Concubine De was so sad, she took the initiative to suggest: "If you have nothing to do, we can go to Weiyang Palace to sit together."
Concubine De naturally agreed.
When they arrived at Weiyang Palace, Xie Ziyue saw that Concubine De didn't seem to want many people to serve her, so she asked her servants to wait outside.
She hugged Gu Xuan and sat beside the couch, opened the window a little, and explained:
"When I woke up this morning, I felt a little dizzy. Although I'm feeling better now, it would be better to let the wind circulate more."
Concubine De nodded, stared at Gu Xuan and asked, "Xiangjia looks very attached to you."
Not to mention the women in the palace, even the children in the palace of many prominent ministers are not close enough to their mothers and have more than enough respect for their mothers.
After all, the child is given to the wet nurse from birth, and the mother is more like a spectator. Every day when the child is happy and lively, she brings it to the mother to see, and the mother teases it a little before holding it.
When she grew up a little, the food and clothing would only need to be taken care of by servants. My mother would only occasionally knock on the servants and express some concern for her.
But Gu Xuan kept moving her little hands and feet in Xie Ziyue's arms, and kept grinning. The baby's pink gums looked particularly cute when she smiled, and she looked like she was facing someone she knew very well.
"She has been clingy since she was born." Xie Ziyue said of her daughter, her whole body suffused with maternal love: "I can't live without me for a moment, so I take care of her myself."
After Xie Ziyue finished speaking, she saw that Concubine De was in a daze and couldn't help but persuade her:
"Just let the past go. You are still young. It will not be difficult to have another child."
She also saw that Concubine De had been immersed in the pain of losing her child and really wanted to persuade her.
She was so nervous when she got pregnant because it was a miracle. If anything went wrong with the child, she might be even more devastated than Concubine De.
Concubine De is still young and it will not be difficult to get pregnant again.
"The imperial doctor said that I have injured myself." Concubine De shook her head and felt discouraged. For a moment, she thought of the culprit who caused her miscarriage:
"The queen is determined to have a legitimate son. She has been taking medicine to heal herself these days. The concubine's maid saw her beside Er Rong coming out to pour out the medicine dregs more than once. She was fine and not sick. What are you doing with the medicine?"
When Concubine De said this, Gu Xuan felt that her mother-in-law was holding her very gently.
But as soon as these words came out, the mother-in-law's face darkened.
Han Xianzong obviously didn't want the queen to give birth to a legitimate son. After all, the left prime minister was the only one in power. If the queen really had a legitimate son, there might be some trouble in the future.
Therefore, the queen may be pregnant, and Han Xianzong will never go to Jinghe Palace.
Now the queen deliberately drinks medicine... Sima Zhao's intentions are known to everyone on the road.
Concubine De will not say anything without evidence. It is very likely that she has received some information.
"I know." Xie Ziyue said coldly: "This matter is not that easy."
As long as Han Xianzong knows about this, Han Xianzong will never go to Jinghe Palace again.
Of course, Xie Ziyue is not ready to say it directly. Men like their beloved women to be simple. Xie Ziyue is not simple, but she can pretend to be simple.
She had her own way to prevent Han Xianzong from going to Jinghe Palace.
Concubine De finally had a little smile on her face.
This was the purpose of her visit to Xie Ziyue today. Seeing that Xie Ziyue understood what she meant, she felt much better.
If her child was gone, but the queen was pregnant... Concubine De couldn't accept this possibility.
I have to say that the news about De Fei came very timely.
In the evening, Xie Ziyue asked the small kitchen to prepare a large table of meals and sent someone to invite Han Xianzong to Weiyang Palace.
When the people from Weiyang Palace arrived, the queen was personally guarding the door of the imperial study with Er Rong, seemingly waiting for the news.
Seeing Taoxiang from Weiyang Palace arriving, the queen's face suddenly turned ugly.
Momo Xiang saluted without squinting, but the Queen did not ask her to get up immediately, but smiled and said:
"It's so late, Momoxiang, why are you here?"
