Chapter 20 Like Muai

On April 18th, you should go for sacrifices

There was a blazing fire on the sacrificial platform in the suburbs of Beijing, and the soldiers of the army swore aloud. Gu Xiying sat upright in the female ceremonies who were seeing off her, with her mother at the top of her head, and the one sitting in front of her was King Jing's biological mother, Celebrate and Celebrate. Logically speaking, such a farewell should be a separate sitting between the internal and external women, but there were not too many external women here this time, and even Princess Jing had never been present. The concubines in the inner palace were just a few who had raised princes and princesses and ranked ninth concubines.

Everyone was a little restrained, but after the queen said that the flag-sacrificial ceremony had officially begun, she gradually relaxed after she saw him off at home.

The concubine of the Zheng Wang Mansion was Mrs. Xiao’s niece, named Xiao Yuan. She was sitting beside Mrs. Xiao’s couch at this time, telling the reason why she came to see her off on behalf of the Zheng Wang Mansion.

It turned out that Princess Zheng has not been pregnant for eight years since she gave birth to Princess Zhou Li. She finally got pregnant again in late autumn last year, but she had many twists and turns. A few days ago, the servants in the mansion were not careful and accidentally bumped into the princess. There was nothing wrong at that time, and the doctor in the Imperial Hospital said it was not important to take care of her for two days. Who would have thought that she saw Hong the night before yesterday.

Concubine Xiao pressed the three words "See Hong" softly, and gently fell into Gu Xiying's ears closest to her, but her heart skipped a beat.

In her previous life, she did not want to see her off, nor did she hear about the inner woman watching the flag opening, nor did she care about whether Princess Zheng Nan was miscarriage. She only knew that after Yingming became a queen for three years, she was pregnant with a princess. It turns out that there was another one at this time of her life.

Gu Xiying was still sitting upright, looking at the huge handsome flag, but the center of gravity was slightly tilted towards her mother. Concubine Xiao continued, "My aunt has also heard that this person who has been born prematurely and cannot survive. Besides, it would have been fine if she had discovered it earlier. There were many medical officials and women in the palace. But it was only when she saw Hong late at night that it was a mess. After she stabilized, it would be difficult to save the princess. I asked someone to inquire about it. The one who fell down was a male fetus."

Concubine Xiao lowered her voice and glanced around as if she was alert. Gu Xiying tried her best to suppress her shock. The hands that overlapped on her knees secretly used their strength. It turned out that the former King Zheng almost had a legitimate son.

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao pulled Concubine Xiao's hand and said softly, "No wonder you are here to see him off today. Unfortunately, this princess has not left Xiaoyue, and your prince will go to the battlefield. As a concubine, it would be good if you can share the worries of the princess. If you can't, there are nannys who are governed by the princess. The princess is naturally virtuous and I think there will be no trouble in the mansion. If the prince is not here, you must keep your duty and not worry the princess. Do you know?"

Concubine Xiao was very well-behaved, and since she was a child, everyone in the family praised her extremely intelligent aunt. She heard that Mrs. Xiao was saying that she wanted to not take care of things at this time and not let someone take the opportunity to throw dirty water on her body. She understood that her aunt was well versed in the way of survival in the inner courtyard of the deep house and was really doing her good for herself, so she replied, "Yuanyuan understands."

Mrs. Xiao held Concubine Xiao's hand and tightened it gently. Then, Concubine Xiao heard a low voice: "This matter has nothing to do with you."

Even the sound of myself who was so close to my aunt was almost lost. If I hadn't been holding my hand in my aunt's hand and suddenly felt a pain, I wouldn't have thought of what kind of warning there was in my loving words at my aunt's leisurely looking at her aunt in the audience.

"The importance of the slightestness, the right and wrong are not right and wrong. Yuanyuan can't help it." Concubine Xiao knew in her heart that her aunt was not really suspicious of herself. She just had to be wary of her at all. Not only should she not be damaging to others, but she should also be wary of others splashing dirty water on it.

"My aunt is so hard, please give me some advice at all times." Concubine Xiao returned to hold Mrs. Xiao's hand and continued, "The prince carefully checked the outer door of the inner courtyard, and did not let go of any suspicious places. However, whether it was the princess' own memories or the diagnosis of the doctors and girls, it was said that it was because of the unstable period of those days, and the princess was angry before. Seeing that the light and fairy actually had planted the root of disaster, she lost the life of the future young prince. Unexpectedly, the princess went to the ground to personally lay the long life lock that had been prepared for the children under the newly teethed Guizhi in the courtyard. He said that he would use the life of the parent-child life as a sacrifice to ensure that my soldiers in the west would win the victory." Concubine Xiao's voice was low, and when she said the last sentence, she did a little disgusting look.

Concubine Xiao understood that her aunt married into the British Duke's Mansion and looked at the fire and cooking oil, but she had to maintain it carefully. Watching the army's destruction was just a mention by the Duke and His Majesty, and His Majesty really found an excuse to let the empress and concubines accompany her.

Anyone here doesn't know that it was because of the farewell intention of the concubine Kuan Palace relatives, but in fact it was just Min and the princess who wanted to join in the fun.

But it is precisely because of this kind that everyone's every move is stared at by everyone, and they cannot take a wrong step.

I told Mrs. Xiao some things in the mansion as usual. For me, I was seeking some advice from my aunt, and for my aunt, I could use the actions of the royal family to clearly judge the movements in the court.

In ancient times, this dispute over wives and concubines was inevitable. No matter how generous and virtuous a person was, he could not be completely indifferent. Even Ehuang and Niaoying were occasionally unhappy. It would be unique to find his aunt as a helper.

After hearing what her niece said, Mrs. Xiao immediately understood what she meant. She took a light breath and her expression became softer. However, Gu Xiying, who was listening to her ears, was stiff for a moment before pursing her lips and laughing again.

I entered the Zheng Wang Mansion yesterday morning, but I thought it was for the Zheng Wang, but I didn't expect that the source was here.

As the owner of the royal palace, King Zheng personally investigated the miscarriage of the princess inside and outside, but was still an unborn young prince but found nothing. Either it was really okay, or the problem was just here. But did Princess Zheng know? If she could see clearly and think clearly, then the trick of using the death-dead prince to pray for blessings for the west despite her illness is also a wonderful trick.

Gu Xiying thought about it and looked at Chen Guang, and Li sat down to bow to the Queen Yingying: "Your Highness, my daughter wants to say a few words to the Seventh Prince, but I hope the Queen will allow it."

Originally, this farewell was equivalent to a family dinner, and even the queen was moved out, just to let Min and Princess come and see the fun. Now she is so bluntly speaking that she is going to see the Seventh Prince. I think that Min and Princess will be the future princess, and the future queen of Qi is not all groundless.

Everyone thought about this more or less today. Gu Xiying also understood it very well. But she could have gone quietly, but she also wanted to try Queen Tian’s attitude at this time.

"You kid, go. You just can't walk around. I'll just send someone to call Lao Qi to you. You can stay downstairs here for a while." After hearing this, the queen agreed to Gu Xiying with a smile, and then sent the palace maid standing beside her to take the seventh prince downstairs here.

"Minhe thanked the Queen." It seems that no matter whether this matter is true or false, Empress Tian is happy to see it happen. Gu Xiying took Mo Yu downstairs, pretending that she did not see the gazes in the building with kindness or gaze.

Gu Xiying stood downstairs, but after a moment he saw Zhou Guangyu strode towards him. He went against the light from south to north, and people were looking directly at him and needed to squint slightly. Gu Xiying felt it was a little dazzling, so she lowered her eyes and took a step back slightly.

Zhou Guangyu came to Gu Xiying in three or two steps, and his nose was slightly sweating. It was obvious that his armor was a little hot. His temples were not messy at all. Even though he had big strides, he still maintained the prince's noble demeanor. Seeing that Gu Xiying did not speak, he was not stubborn and asked directly: "Axi, my mother said you have something to say to me. Is it important? The ceremony is probably about to begin. You can finish picking up what is important."

Gu Xiying did not misunderstand that he was impatient, but he was amused when he saw a general who would be invincible in the future and was excited and nervous before going to the battlefield for the first time. "If you should give me some advice, I have told you when you went home before. Just don't forget it. This time I have to come to see you in the smoky land of Western Xinjiang, and there is a forest that is a must-pass place to attack Western Xinjiang. You know all of these, so I won't say much. I'll give you this."

Gu Xiying handed out a small box, and Zhou Guangyu put it in his arms without asking. Gu Xiying felt funny, "If you don't ask what this is, you just accept it."

Zhou Guangyu said: "What you can give me must be a good thing. What is this."

"This is a two-day ago when I came from my father. It is the secret medicine of the Wuyue royal family. In addition to detoxification, it can also control the unjust energy of the smoke forest. There are very few that can be refined every year, and it is very precious. This time I give you only five. Remember to bring them with you at all times, and take two pieces of crushed water at all times to protect your heart and prevent them from being disturbed by poisoning for the time being."
