She feels happy, but some people are not happy.

When the third prince got married, the sixth prince, as his younger brother, had to be there. Today he specially brought Deng Ruyue with him.

As for what happened in the backyard of the Duke's Mansion, the sixth prince, as a foreign boy, still doesn't know. Naturally, Deng Ruyue would not take the initiative to mention the discord between the sisters. After all, her biological sister is the prince's concubine, so the sixth prince will naturally treat her accordingly.

Pay some attention.

After Deng Ruyue avoided the crowd at a distance, she was afraid that someone would notice her before telling Deng Ruyu. She saw that everyone in the prince's residence was busy working on this marriage, and saw Deng Ruyu's glorious wedding with her own eyes. She felt particularly blocked.

Firstly, she felt uncomfortable in her heart, and secondly, she was afraid that Deng Ruyu would send someone to force her to leave, and then she would no longer be able to hide the disagreement between the sisters. So, not long after the banquet started, she found the sixth prince and said that she was feeling unwell.

, have to leave early.

The sixth prince did not force her. Today was the wedding of the third prince brother. It was reasonable for him to stay as long as he wanted. When he was not the groom today, he was particularly free and had time to chat with others. Anyone who has ideas about that position would like to be respected by everyone.

Own.

If you want to win the respect of the officials in the court, you have to spend more time with them and let them know you. Therefore, the sixth prince was very busy. When he heard that someone was leaving, he immediately ordered his entourage to send her out.

A concubine was brought out by the Sixth Prince in person, and even asked to be escorted away by his personal attendants. This immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Deng Ruyue was so happy that her heart was in her throat. There were so many people who noticed her, and it would easily reach Deng Ruyu's ears. Fortunately, there was no danger, and she was able to get out of the third prince's house.

No one came to trouble her.

She had been running around all day before dawn, and she was indeed a little tired. She leaned on the carriage and fell asleep, and then she fell asleep. When she woke up again, she had returned to the Sixth Prince's Mansion.

Before accepting her, the sixth prince rarely lived outside the palace and always lived in the palace. Even though the courtyard in the palace was much smaller than this house and there were many inconveniences in doing things, he was unwilling to move out. In the end, he was unwilling to move out.

, ascended the throne from the prince's palace, some names are not justified.

However, with a woman to serve, it is not suitable to live in the palace anymore.

Deng Ruyue sometimes felt that she was lucky to have become the first woman the Sixth Prince had seen in public. After returning to the mansion, she was completely relaxed. When she was asking someone to prepare hot water for her, the maid next to her came to her side.

Came over.

This maid was newly promoted after she arrived at the Prince's Mansion. She was just a rough messenger before and was often bullied. Because of her importance, the maid's marriage was completely reversed. Therefore, this person was especially loyal to her. At this moment, she said with a worried face:

"Auntie, Miss Jade in the study is already three days late for changing her bath, and she even vomited this morning."

No matter how she looked, she looked like she was pregnant.

Deng Ruyue was picking off jewelry. She paused slightly when she heard this. Not sure it was what she had guessed, she turned back to look at her: "Are you pregnant?"

The maid shook her head: "I haven't seen the doctor yet, so I'm not sure."

If she was not sure, the maid would not show it to her.

Being a woman to a prince does not mean you will be honored for a lifetime. After all, you have to have children by your side. What Deng Ruyue wants is to have a child before other women come in. Unfortunately, the sixth prince has his own ideas.

After being intimate for the first time, he would give her a bowl of soup.

Deng Ruyue was unwilling to give in, but she could only endure it. She didn't dare to stop taking the medicine privately and get pregnant... The child she had always wanted in her dreams had now taken root in another woman's belly. It was strange that she felt better.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she threw the jewelry in her hand: "How dare she?"

The maid hesitated for a moment: "Would you like me to secretly give her a bowl of medicine before anyone notices it?"

"Of course I have to give it away." Deng Ruyue said without thinking: "I am a well-established person, and His Highness won't let me get pregnant. Why should she? She doesn't have to be secretive. She should tell the steward next to His Highness about it and ask her to hurry up.

of."

The maid made a trip.

On the other side, the third prince's house started seeing off guests early. Kuang Xi'an did not want to get drunk with others on his big day. Instead of dealing with these people here, it would be better to go back to the room early to accompany his new wife.

Where is the bride?

Kuang Xian returned to the new house and looked at the beauty under the lamp. The more she looked at her, the more beautiful she became. He stepped forward and hugged her from behind: "It's so beautiful."

Chu Yunli rubbed the back of his hand.

Kuang Xian was moved and kissed her neck.

Suddenly, there were rapid footsteps approaching from outside, and Kuang Xian sighed: "Disappointing."

The next moment, there was a knock on the door, and the worried voice of the steward came from outside: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother was too happy. She drank a few more drinks with others, and she vomited just now. The imperial doctor said that she has signs of a stroke."

After the old man suffered a stroke, he suffered from hemiplegia in mild cases and death in severe cases. The Queen Mother was also in great pain and happy. Hearing this, he looked cautious and said: "I have to go to the palace."

Chu Yunli immediately took off her auspicious clothes: "Wait for me to change clothes and accompany you."

Kuang Xian did not refuse.

This news was not a secret. It spread quickly among the guests outside. The Sixth Prince was already preparing to leave. After hearing this, he immediately found a carriage and entered the palace.

The two brothers walked almost in tandem, with Kuang Xi'an taking the lead and walking in front when entering the palace.

The Queen Mother's condition has indeed become very serious. She has indulged herself a bit in the past two years. She especially likes drinking and doesn't pay much attention to food. The imperial doctor reminded her several times, but she didn't take it to heart.

She was really too cautious in her words and deeds in the past years, and she didn't want to live like that again. She seemed to have expected that she would be seriously ill in bed. Not only did she not worry about it, she also didn't ask the imperial doctor to save her.

Instead, his face was filled with relief.

The emperor is in his forties this year and is in his prime, but at this moment he is full of worry and orders the Imperial Hospital to do its best to treat him.

A group of kneeling imperial doctors, who are considered to have the best medical skills in the world, are frowning so hard that they can kill mosquitoes. Even though they know it will be difficult, they have no choice but to agree.

All four princes came, and the Queen Mother told them to go over one by one. She told Kuang Xi'an to take care of himself. When she arrived at the sixth prince, she took a deep look and said, "Liu'er, get married and have a son as soon as possible."

Among these princes, except for Kuang Xi'an, who was seriously ill, all of them had children. Only the sixth prince had no children. He solemnly agreed.

"Let him choose a girl from my mother's family."

As soon as the Queen Mother said this, the Emperor agreed casually. However, the Sixth Prince's expression changed.

The late emperor was not liked by his elders at the beginning, and he had no intention of becoming emperor. He did not care about the choice of the prince and concubine. He just chose a woman of low birth but beautiful appearance based on his heart, who is now the queen mother.

The Empress Dowager's family was not prominent. Except for her grandfather who was a fifth-rank official, there was no other official in the family. Later, when the late emperor ascended the throne, he wanted to give the Empress Dowager's natal family a decent place and constant support for the sake of the relationship between husband and wife, but...

Some people are like mud and cannot hold up the wall.

Of that large family, only one seventh-grade master was left.

The sixth prince was never sure about the choice of the prince's concubine. Firstly, he did not want to expose his ambition too early. Secondly, he was also a little undecided. Once he chose the prince's concubine, the rest of the people would leave him.

He never expected that after picking and choosing, he would only end up with a seventh-grade daughter. This was not as good as Deng Jiahua.

The Queen Mother has become so ill that her voice is hoarse and her enunciation is unclear. The Emperor has to rely on guesswork to understand everything. For such an old man who is about to leave, no one will refute her words.

The Queen Mother's condition was under control and she would not die for the time being. The Emperor asked several princes to take turns serving her. Kuang Xian was weak. Today was his big day, so naturally he was not a part of it.

So the couple left the palace late at night.

After Deng Ruyue returned home, she was initially worried that the Sixth Prince would go back too early and discover what she had done. Then it was late at night and she had not seen anyone yet. She began to worry again.

Finally, at dawn, the sixth prince with a gloomy face arrived, and she hurriedly greeted him: "How much did you drink? Why are you coming back now?"

The sixth prince rubbed his eyebrows, his shoulders slumped: "Give me a bowl of hangover soup, I want it."

Wake up."

Deng Ruyue immediately looked at the maid beside her.

The maid turned around to get it, and she stepped forward to help him rub his temples: "Do you have a headache? No matter how much you drink, you must take care of yourself. If something happens to you, what should I do?"

The Sixth Prince used to be very comforted by her dependence on her, but now he was a little bored. He was indeed unaware of the things that happened in the Duke's Mansion at first, but when he woke up later and found that the raw rice with Deng Ruyue had become cooked rice, he

He had already guessed most of it. Later, when he learned that the two sisters had turned against each other, he vaguely knew that it was Deng Jiahua who wanted to plot against him in the first place, but Deng Ruyue beat him to it.

It is not impossible to marry the daughter of the Duke of Guo as a concubine, and it is too high-profile. Besides, the Duke of Guo may not be willing. It would be much better to take a concubine as a concubine.

Therefore, he took the opportunity to propose a marriage, and the Duke happily agreed. But at this moment, he regretted it. If the person with him that night was Deng Jiahua, it would be better than going to a seventh-grade master Bo... Also, the Queen Mother must be sure

I wouldn't find such a marriage for him for no reason. She probably saw his ambition and wanted to suppress him. Or, in other words, remind him to be more honest.

But the Sixth Prince didn't want to be honest. He held Deng Ruyue's hand and said, "There must have been other things that happened the night we consummated our marriage. Tell me honestly, who was the one who plotted against me that night?"

No one mentioned what happened that night between the two of them. Deng Ruyue actually breathed a sigh of relief. When she heard him mention it, her heart suddenly rose to her throat. She forced a smile: "No one dares to

A plot against Your Highness, as for me and Your Highness...it was really just an accident."

The sixth prince looked at her coldly: "Don't pretend in front of me."

Deng Ruyue: "..."

She lowered her eyes: "I accidentally noticed the eldest sister sneaking around and followed her out of curiosity. Later I found her going to the guest house... I followed her all the way again, but was knocked unconscious by a rockery and woke up again.

At that time, I was already lying beside you."

The implication is that she was also being plotted against.

"Originally I wanted to explain it to His Highness, but if I tell you something like this, you probably won't believe it. Besides, it has already happened. I do admire Your Highness, so I have been confused until now."

The sixth prince didn't believe her and pushed her away: "I'm a little tired and want to go to the study to rest."

The woman over there in the study was just pregnant, and Deng Ruyue was feeling unhappy. Hearing these words, how could he endure it: "Your Highness, Miss Jade..."

The Sixth Prince frowned: "It's so late, why do you hesitate to say what you have to say directly?" He had to go back to sleep, there were still errands to do tomorrow.

Deng Ruyue knew that he did not want the women in the house to get pregnant before getting married, so she tentatively told the news she had just learned.
To be continued...
