"Of course I have, that child is really pitiful..." Liu Li replied casually, but in the middle of the sentence, he suddenly thought of something, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he looked at me: "Why are you asking this?

”

I just smiled and said: "It's rare for your Majesty to still care about the Second Prince so much."

She was already a little wary, but she still said slowly: "No matter what, children are always innocent."

"Yes, the child is innocent."

"..."

Her eyebrows frowned slightly, and when she heard Ye Yunshuang's heart-rending shouts from the other side, she trembled and said, "What on earth are you going to say?"

I looked into her eyes solemnly: "Are you willing to take care of this innocent child?"

"..."

Her eyes flickered for a moment, and it was hard to tell what she was thinking, but it was not rejection or anger at the first moment. But after a moment of silence, she suddenly laughed: "Are you kidding me?"

"The empress knows that there is nothing to joke about when a minister is in the palace."

"No joke?" She sneered: "Taking care of that child? What good do I get?"

"Weichen doesn't think that the empress is the kind of person who must benefit from anything she does."

"Don't put your hat on me." She was not only deserted, but also calm. Although she listened to my words, it could not shake her heart at all: "Everyone knows what this child is like. Besides, his identity is so special.

Even if I take care of him without asking for anything in return, I shouldn’t cause trouble for myself.”

As she said that, she looked at me steadily: "Yue Qingying, I have no interest in the grudge between you and Concubine Li."

"..." My eyes darkened and I didn't speak.

Liu Li crossed her arms and slowly walked down the steps and looked at me, with a hint of joking, but in a warning tone: "I don't know where you got the courage to confront her.

You'd better not think that just because the emperor built a terrace for you and tolerated these things from you, that means he really loves you."

"..."

"You are only nine feet behind her."

"..."

On the contrary, she has a burning gaze.

Although she lives the most deserted life in such a prosperous place, it does not affect her calmness and wisdom. However, I really don't think that I want to compete with Nangong Lizhu.

I did this just for an innocent child.

Sometimes I even think that if I give my love and care to Li'er to other children, then in the cycle of cause and effect, will there be other people who will give their love and care to Li'er to make up for my mother's absence?

The loneliness and loneliness around me.

Thinking of this, I sighed softly and turned around to leave.

This time, Liu Li was a little hesitant. When he saw me turning around, he did not call me to stop him, but whispered behind me: "If Concubine Li can let go of her hatred for that child -"

I looked back at her.

She stood at the door and said hesitantly: "If no one hates that child anymore, I can't take care of him."

"..."

I was speechless for a moment.

How is it possible for Nangong Lizhu to let go of her hatred for that child?

I smiled bitterly and said perfunctorily: "Wei Chen will think of a way."

She said seriously: "If you really have a way, you can try it."

Just now, I really just asked her tentatively, but I didn't expect that she would actually be willing to take care of a stupid child. In fact, she is not as cold and heartless as she seems. In the harem, a place where everyone is only interested in profit,

It’s not easy for her to do this.

Maybe it's because that kind of blood is still flowing in her body.

Thinking of this, my mind suddenly flashed.

I didn't pay much attention to Uncle Ghost's unconscious murmurings at the door of the Toraikan before, but now that I saw her, I remembered her for some reason.

She seemed to feel the shock in my expression, and she looked at me with some doubts. I thought about it, raised my head and looked at her, and asked carefully: "I went there with my father-in-law, Mr. Liu, when I was the concubine.

Nishikawa went to the Erudite Conference, right?"

She frowned: "Why do you ask this?"

"Did you see any strange people when you were there?"

"What?"

She became more and more confused, and her eyebrows twisted into the character Sichuan.

"Someone who looks very strange, such as——"

Before I finished speaking, she interrupted me coldly: "Mr. Yue, what happened back then has already passed, why do you bring it up? I don't even remember my own brother, let alone other people. You ask

What do these mean?"

She became a little bit sarcastic, perhaps because the mention of Mr. Liu reminded her of the sad past of her father and brother's tragic death, or perhaps because of the historical confrontation between Xichuan and the court, which embarrassed her as she had been inextricably linked to Xichuan.

However, as soon as I saw her with the needles all over her body standing up like a hedgehog, I didn't dare to say anything more, so I could only lower my head and say, "I apologize."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

As soon as I turned around, I heard Ye Yunshuang's scream from the front. It was so shrill and shocking that Liu Li and I were startled. Then, a burst of baby crying came.

She gave birth.

I smiled subconsciously.

No matter how smoky this place is and how sinister the people here are, the birth of new life always makes people feel happy. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look back at Liu Li, but saw the smile on her face fleeting.

, there was an unspeakable loneliness and loss in his eyes, the corners of his eyes turned slightly red, and he turned around and walked back into the house.

The happiness of others always highlights the pain of some people.

I sighed and walked slowly over there. As soon as I walked over, I saw people at the gate retreating and kneeling on the ground. Pei Yuanhao and others hurried in from outside.

At this time, Chang Qing also walked out of the room, with a thin layer of sweat on her face. When she saw Pei Yuanhao, she walked forward with a smile and knelt down: "I congratulate the emperor."

Pei Yuanhao helped her up: "Thank you for your hard work, Queen. Yun Bin, she——"

"Concubine Yun gave birth to a little princess."

"..."

Although it was only for a moment, you could still feel Pei Yuanhao's face sinking.

Not a prince.

I looked back at the room with the doors and windows closed. The baby's cry was very soft and low, scratching people's hearts like the whimpering of a kitten. Pei Yuanhao immediately smiled: "I'll go and have a look."<

/p>

After saying that, he walked in. Chang Qing followed him. When he saw me, he hesitated and said softly: "If you feel uncomfortable, don't come."

I smiled lightly: "It's okay. I also want to see the little princess."

"...Then, you can come too."

"Yes."

I followed her up the steps. Because we couldn't see the wind just after giving birth, so as soon as we entered, the little palace maid came over and closed the door. The light in the room was not strong, and with the layers of curtains hanging down, there was no breeze.

It was opaque, and a strong smell of blood penetrated straight into my nostrils. As soon as I stood still, I subconsciously frowned.

Then, through the gauze curtain in the middle, I saw the inside.

Pei Yuanhao sat on the bedside and carefully took a swaddling baby from his mother's hand. What came out of it was a small cry, and it was still squirming.

Although he was not a prince, he was still his own flesh and blood. Pei Yuanhao looked down at the infant child with a joyful smile on his face. While looking at it, he lowered his head and said to Ye Yunshuang who was lying on the bed: "Yunshuang

, look, this is the daughter you gave birth to for me."

Ye Yunshuang was originally charming and charming, but at this time she also looked a little embarrassed, sweating profusely, and her cheeks were stained with a lot of messy sweat-soaked hair. However, she didn't feel ugly at all in this look. Instead, she had a maternal softness.

It came out from the bottom of her heart. She was still breathing unevenly, but she couldn't wait to look at it and said with a smile: "This is the child my concubine gave birth to for the emperor."

"Well, like you."

"My concubine... I hope she can be like the emperor."

"No, it's better to be like you."

Pei Yuanhao lowered his head and smiled at her, reaching out to brush away the messy hair from her forehead: "As beautiful as you."

Ye Yunshuang smiled softly after hearing this.

With this smile, a ray of light seemed to shine on her face, and even her eyelashes stained with sweat were shining. Her whole person exuded an almost divine brilliance, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes away.

My eyes couldn't help but feel hot.

Have I ever, ever?
