Chu Yunfei's face was slightly pale, and her expression looked unpredictable.
"It just so happens that I want to hear your plan." Rong Cang took the initiative to invite, "We haven't talked before going to bed for a long time."
"I don't want to." Chu Yunfei turned around and walked into the bedroom, "The prince will sleep in the Nuan Pavilion tonight."
Rong Cang: "..."
Shengxia and Baochan came in, lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes into the inner room and started making the bed, not daring to say a word.
Rong Cang stood alone, swallowing the words that came to his lips several times.
Not only was his little wife much tougher than before, but her temper had also become somewhat unstable. One moment the sun was shining brightly, and the next moment there were dark clouds.
It was clear that she was extremely distressed and anxious when his poison took effect, but once he was fine, she refused to let anyone live thousands of miles away, and was very indifferent and distant.
It’s true that a woman’s heart is as deep as a needle in the sea.
Rong Cang didn't want to sleep just yet. He walked into the window and looked at Chu Yunfei, who was lazily sitting on the couch. She was wearing a loose and light cloud-colored silk dress, which vaguely outlined her exquisite and graceful figure. Her white collarbone shone in the light of the lamp. It glowed like jade.
At this time, she held her chin and looked out the window at the night, looking even more innocent and delicate, which was a great test of a man's self-control.
Rong Cang's eyes dimmed, staring at her calm and refined profile: "I can't sleep for the moment, and I want to talk to you."
Chu Yunfei didn't even look back: "What are you talking about?"
"Talk about your plans." Rong Cang was silent for a moment, then sat down next to her, "What are you going to do next?"
Chu Yunfei glanced at him sideways and pondered slightly: "Although the child in my belly is a talisman, it also has pros and cons. Today in Zhaochen Palace, the noble concubine and Princess Chen's expressions changed when they heard the news that I was pregnant. It’s not pretty.”
Rong Cang's eyes darkened slightly and he didn't say a word.
"Before today, I didn't even have time to think about what this child means to us." Chu Yunfei's mouth showed a touch of ridicule, "But in the eyes of some caring people, our child is very likely to become a stumbling block for them. "
It is an unwritten rule of the royal family that the mother is more valuable than the son.
If a concubine in the harem gives birth to a prince, she will be promoted in rank.
Prosperity, wealth, and endless rewards.
It is also a happy event when a prince's concubine gives birth to an heir.
People with bad intentions are accustomed to using children as tools to compete for favor. They are worried that other people's children will hinder their plans, so they have the idea of eradicating them.
She believed that the imperial concubine and Princess Chen were no exception.
Thinking of this, Chu Yunfei's eyes grew colder. She failed to protect her children in her previous life, and she would never let anyone harm her children in this life.
Rong Cang was silent for a moment: "I will protect you mother and son."
"Since the news of the pregnancy has been known to others, the imperial concubine will definitely make a statement." Chu Yunfei said in a cold voice, "Even if she just maintains the superficial motherly kindness and filial piety, she will send someone to reward her with something, but in private she will definitely Something will be done.”
Rong Cang hummed and agreed with her judgment: "The first person who couldn't sit still should be Princess Chen."
Princess Chen has only one daughter.
If Chu Yunfei gave birth to his eldest son, Prince Chen and his wife would definitely feel a sense of crisis. They would be worried that this legitimate son would steal the emperor's favor.
Even if there are still seven months before the child is born, and even if it is not yet certain whether the child is a boy or a girl, they cannot take it lightly.
Chu Yunfei said calmly: "Being in the royal family, even having a child is scary. It is really dangerous. Danger is everywhere."
Rong Cang's expression changed slightly. Thinking of the dream she had said, a sharp pain arose in his heart again: "I was stupid and self-righteous before, but I won't be anymore."
Shengxia and Baochan made the bed, walked over, bowed, and then left.
Chu Yunfei said calmly: "You'd better not be stupid again."
After saying this, she got up and walked to the inner room and lay down on the bed, as if she was going to rest.
Rong Cang stood up and looked deeply in the direction of the inner room. After a while, he turned around and went to the Nuan Pavilion.
Chu Yunfei was lying alone on the bed, closing her eyes quietly and thinking about what happened in the palace today. She thought of the imperial concubine and Princess Chen, the emperor and the empress, and couldn't help but think deeply in her heart.
Where did her familiarity with the Queen come from?
Did he meet her when he was a child?
But her father did not take up the position of Minister of Household Affairs until he was nearly forty years old. When he was young, his official position was even lower. Where did she get the chance to meet the queen?
She didn't know whether it was because she was too tired to take care of Rong Cang these days, or because she was pregnant and easily fell asleep. Before Chu Yunfei could think of a reason, a wave of sleepiness slowly came over her, and she fell into a deep sleep involuntarily.
Late at night, a figure came out from behind the curtain and slowly approached the bed.
Brushing past the fallen curtains, in the dim light, Rong Cang stared at the woman who was already asleep on the bed, pursed her thin lips, gently lifted the thin quilt and lay down on it.
The interior is quiet and peaceful, allowing for a good night's sleep.
When Chu Yunfei woke up the next morning, he frowned and sat on the bed, meditating for a long time.
Although the bed on the other side was cold, she always felt that she was not sleeping alone in the bed last night.
And was she sleeping too deeply?
These days I wake up several times every night, except last night I didn't wake up even once and slept until dawn.
"Princess, are you awake?" Baochan came in with water and greeted her respectfully, "My servant is waiting for you to wash up."
Chu Yunfei turned to look in the direction of Nuange: "Your Highness, have you gotten up?"
"Yes, the prince is practicing martial arts in the yard." Baochan said, looking at Chu Yunfei with burning eyes, "Princess, has the prince changed his ways in the past two days?"
Change your ways?
Chu Yunfei's expression was subtle: "What should I say?"
"The slave looks at the prince and the princess in a different way. She got up early in the morning and specifically told her not to disturb the princess' rest." Bao Chan said, curling her lips slightly, "Mong Xia is indeed right."
The prince indeed took the wrong medicine. The princess replaced his medicine with the right one, and the prince returned to normal instantly.
Chu Yunfei was noncommittal.
After getting up and washing up, she put on a lake blue floral dress, pulled up her black hair, and simply inserted a few hairpins. After a little embellishment, she looked a bit like a royal princess.
Stepping out of the door, Chu Yunfei breathed in the fresh morning air.
"Princess!" Auntie Xiong came in a hurry, bowed and saluted, "Many rewards were sent from the palace, some from the emperor, and some from the imperial concubine. Princess Chen and the fifth princess also came in a carriage, and said I need to make amends to the princess.”
Before Chu Yunfei could say anything, Rong Cang, dressed in fine clothes, came over and said, "Send someone to put all the things into the warehouse."
After saying that, he turned to look at Chu Yunfei, and Rong Cang said in a warm voice: "Are you awake?"
Bao Chan blinked, the prince had not only changed, he was a completely different person.
Wasn't there talk about divorcing your wife a few days ago?
"I'll go out and have a look." Chu Yunfei said calmly, turned around and walked out, "You don't have to see people when they come, but you have to accept the rewards from the palace."
Shengxia and Baochan quickly followed.
Changqing stood aside and silently glanced at his prince.
Ever since the prince was injured, it seems that the princess has really taken charge of the palace. The princess is busy with affairs every day and goes in and out of the front yard and the inner house. The prince has become a resentful woman, and it is difficult to have a good conversation with the princess. .
Just at this time, the prince silently looked at the princess's leaving figure, his eyes clearly showing a bit of loss.
"Evergreen." Rong Cang frowned slightly, turned around and spoke.
"My subordinate is here."
"Go and keep an eye on it."
"Yes." Changqing raised her foot and followed.
