"Aunt, I heard that Hanshan Temple has received its first snow this winter! Do you want to go and see it another day?"
The Queen looked at the Queen Mother and asked with a smile on her face.
I knew she was happy not because it was snowing, but because I was kneeling underneath.
After listening to the Queen's words, I then thought that it had been more than half a year since I entered the palace. It was already winter, and it would be spring next year.
Unknowingly, I had been staying in the palace for a year without any pain or itching.
My thoughts were racing, but I still heard the Queen Mother's reply to the Queen.
The Queen Mother said: "Look, of course I have to go and see the Bodhisattva and pray for incense for our Dongfang family. You said that the rain and dew are evenly distributed among you, Your Majesty. How come there is no news about each of you? You are so unhappy."
I’m proud of myself.”
When talking about the children, the Queen Mother seemed a little uneasy.
There were many concubines in Dongfangluo's harem, but very few were pregnant, and even those who were pregnant had miscarried for no apparent reason.
I don’t know if the queen did it or who did it.
In the past half year or so, Dongfang Luo has been visiting the wombs of different concubines, and the queen's is the most common, but there is no news at all about the queen's belly.
Can the Queen Mother not be anxious?
I thought about myself. Dongfangluo and I have had sex several times, and I didn’t seem to be using birth control every time. Could there be another baby in my belly?
I don't dare to think about it, I get scared when I think about it.
Thinking of Dongfang Ao's gloomy face, I don't even dare to hope that I will have a child in my belly.
Not to mention that Dongfang Ao will not let me go, this concubine in the harem will not let me go either!
Especially the queen, who is incompatible with me, how could she let me go so easily?
I wandered in my mind and looked at the queen quietly, but received an angry look from the queen.
I'm confused, I didn't offend her! Why are you looking at me so angrily?
I continued to lower my head, escaping from the Queen's comments and diverting my attention.
What they were talking about had nothing to do with me, and I didn't want to hear it.
Even if you don’t want to listen, you still have to listen. Otherwise, how will you answer when someone asks you?
Just as I was wandering in my mind, the Queen Mother's voice rang out.
"Concubine Xi... Concubine Xi..."
The Queen Mother called out twice impatiently, and then I came back to my senses.
I looked at the Queen Mother a little confused, but I didn't dare to blatantly ask her why she called me.
