Chapter 239: Young Master Can't Afford To Care For You
he just couldn't match the Emperor's skill. 。After all, it's been over four hundred years of honing his skills. How could a twenty-five-year-old junior possibly compare 。So, Your servant has grown ac...Outside the city walls of Lin'an, Bo Guan Street, Qingyun Lane 。Even the most secluded dwelling on the eastern side was not spared. When the earth dragon turned, the house tilted precariously, and a beam in the main hall collapsed. 。Though the pregnant mistress was not hit, she was frightened badly. A few days later, she felt abdominal pain and even had a bloody discharge. 。There was a wet nurse attending to her, and she had laid out a quilt on the bed beside her. She was watching over her while she slept. 。The hostess tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep. The old woman listened to the noises from inside the tent and felt annoyed. She said irritably, "If you don't sleep soon, it will be dawn. You can stay up as long as you want, but don't make the baby in your belly suffer too." 。“If you truly care for the child, then you should send me back to Duke Su's residence, back to Sixth Prince's side, instead of keeping me imprisoned here.” 。I am the woman of Lord Liu, and I'm carrying his child. He must be delighted. Everyone in Duke Su’s manor will take good care of me. 。The night watcher snorted, “His Royal Highness is happy, but the Empress Dowager is not. Otherwise, why do you think with so many women in Duke Su’s mansion, none of them can give birth to a child” The woman inside the tent shivered and fell silent. 。The midwife said again, “Knowing that you have a child in your heart is happy, but you should wait for the child to be born safely before being happy. It’s useless to just carry it in your belly.” 。Your Highness did this for your own good, preventing you from going to the Duke of Su's mansion and instead keeping you safe outside. 。He's not coming to see you for your own good. The Empress Dowager has many spies, and if she were to find out, not only would the other children be in danger, but you too would be in peril. 。Oh, by the way, things aren't that simple yet. The main wife has just arrived at the mansion, and her children haven't been born yet. A concubine gets pregnant first, giving birth before the legitimate child. Do you think the main wife would let you get away with this if you were truly back in Duke Su's Mansion Sixth Prince is protecting you; you should be grateful. 。Here you have everything delicious to eat and drink, what else could you possibly want 。The woman remained silent for a long time before speaking again, "What exactly are you Are you truly sent by His Highness the Sixth Prince Why do I always feel that you are not from the Duke of Su mansion""Where does it seem like I'm not from there" The midwife was unhappy. "Madam has never even been to the Duke of Su mansion, so where did this comparison come from""It's not a comparison, just a feeling..." 。" Then get rid of that feeling " 。“The wet nurse’s voice softened a little, “Madam, don't worry too much. Could I possibly belong to any house other than the Duke of Su's In this Lin'an city, besides Sixth Highness, who else would care about you and your belly The old servant knows that Madam is unhappy, feeling like she’s under house arrest. After all, even the door isn’t usually allowed out…” 。This can also be done to protect you, because the Duchess has heard about your situation and is sending people to look for you. If they find you, both you and your child will be killed. 。On one side is the Empress Dowager, on the other is the Princess Consort of Suku. Which do you think you can escape All of a sudden, the woman pulled open the curtain and poked her head out, "What about after the child is born Can I return to Suku Palace once the child is born"The midwife also sat up from the ground and nodded, "Yes, Your Highness has said so..." 。" What if the princess makes things difficult for me again" "Then it depends on your own abilities." 。The old woman rolled her eyes and said, “Madam, let this servant speak a few words. All the concubines and illegitimate children in every household live this way. You don’t believe me Just go out and ask around later. Which legitimate wife would tolerate a concubine who is already pregnant before even entering the household Especially someone like you, who came from the teahouse selling songs. That makes you a lowly person, not even as good as a house slave.” 。The mistress's face had no radiance, so it was normal for her not to tolerate you. 。"Then when I've given birth, will she finally forgive me" "Even if you have already given birth, what else can she do By then, you and your child will have the protection of the King. As long as you win over the King's heart, you will be able to live well." 。I'm being more cautious now because the baby is still in the womb. There are just too many ways people could try to harm you and your child, it's impossible to defend against everything. 。She was born just like that. After being born, every time a few more servants were assigned to watch her, she couldn't possibly snatch the child and kill it in front of so many people. 。"
The woman nodded, “You’re right. I overthought it.” 。After speaking, he retracted his head and tucked in the bedding. He lay flat on the bed, stroking his belly over and over again. 。"Whether it's a boy or a girl, it's such a pity that my child has encountered so many twists and turns before even being born. If it wasn't for the pills from Fourth Sister that night, I'm afraid both of us would have been buried in this earthquake." 。Had I known life would be this arduous, back then I truly should have fought to the death and refused. Six Palaces... 。I put my life on the line for my father, and in the end, I still have to give birth to his children. What kind of injustice is this 。“You said you weren't afraid to die, didn't you Now you regret it. What were you thinking back then You're just scared, aren't you And greedy. You wanted a different life than before.” 。Then don't complain, and don't feel wronged. The prince is blessed with good fortune, and in the future, his wife will surely enjoy prosperity through her son. 。“Alright, go to sleep!”
The woman remained silent. The midwife didn't lie down immediately, she just sat on the ground.
The house was so dark that even if a person stood inside, no one would have noticed. 。Ye Fei Zhou, having listened to the conversation between the two, had recognized the woman at first glance. 。Those from the Duke of Su's Mansion, they were clearly maidservants attending to his mother, Xiao Sh beyaz. 。It is said that when the mother married into the General's Mansion, she brought dowry from her family in Xiao. 。He didn't understand why his mother would send the maidservants from her side to attend to the concubines of the Sixth Prince, pretending they were servants of the Duke of Sussex's mansion. 。
I still don't understand, if the person has always been in their mother's hands, why does Ye Hongzhuang need to take them away
Could it be that even her own mother the sister doesn't trust Perhaps after giving birth, she left to stay with someone else. How much could he guess about what Ye Hongzhuang meant 。Most likely, they're betting that the woman is carrying a boy. That way, if she gives birth to a girl, they can switch babies and keep her position in the Duke of Sushu's mansion safe. 。But there's a sense of complexity to this, as if there's something else going on here, but I can't quite figure it out. 。He shook his head, unwilling to think about it anymore. Tonight was the night he came to take this woman away, no matter what, he had to do it. 。He must get the evidence from the Dust King's hands, and for this, he will pay any price. 。Ye Fei Zhou moved, he walked behind the old woman, silently and soundlessly, like a ghost. 。When approaching, two fingers together, press the sleeping point on that woman's body. 。In the blink of an eye, the old woman fell to the ground and began snoring. From inside the tent, a woman let out a cold snort: “You fall asleep so quickly; you don't even know who's watching over whom.” 。He lifted the curtain and at once saw a woman lying flat on the bed, her two hands stroking her belly. 。The woman also looked at him, and was so frightened that her mouth opened wide, but she didn't dare to cry out. 。Because Ye Fei Zhou's sword tip was already at her throat, he warned, "If you want to live, keep your mouth shut and follow me obediently. Otherwise, I'll send you to the West right now!"The woman didn't dare speak, she was so scared that she almost collapsed, she couldn't even walk on her own. 。Ye Fei Zhou wanted to carry her onto his shoulder, but he was afraid that such a posture would hurt her belly. 。Unable to do anything else, I had no choice but to lift the man horizontally, with the woman's two arms hanging from my neck. 。He felt quite awkward in this position, especially since the woman had been staring straight at his face ever since he picked her up, her eyes never leaving him for a moment. This only made things more embarrassing. 。He was engaged in the shady business of robbing people at night, yet he pretended it was a romantic elopement. Why did this woman have such an expression Couldn't she show any awareness that she had been kidnapped Besides an old woman, there weren't any other servants in this courtyard. 。It seems Xiao believed that sending a martial arts-capable woman to watch over a pregnant and weak woman would be foolproof!Night Fei Zhou easily brought the person out and placed her in the carriage parked by the roadside. 。The woman, as she was stuffed into the trunk, pulled at Ye Fei Zhou's arm and looked at him with tender affection. In a soft voice, she said to him: "Sir, I am afraid to be alone in the car. Could you please come in and keep me company" Ye Fei Zhou finally understood why this woman would rather risk her father's life than die by his side. 。She is not without the courage to die, she just prefers to live by the side of a noble person. 。Instead of the Sixth Highness forcing her, it was she who took the initiative to seduce him. 。Just like now, in this situation the other party is still using such flirtatious tactics. This shows that it's habitual and they don't really care about men or women, chaste or not. 。He was furious. He jerked his sleeve away from the woman's grasp and glared at her fiercely before climbing into his carriage and driving off. 。The night in the outer city was bustling, with people working tirelessly to rebuild their homes, staying up all night. 。There were many people coming and going on the street, and many people were also hurrying in carriages transporting supplies. Although the Night Flying Boat's carriage was traveling on the street, it wasn't particularly noticeable to passersby. 。His goal was to leave the city, but it was still too early, and the city gates hadn't opened yet. 。They could only drive the car slowly, and at the same time warned those who got on the carriage: "Sit still, don't look out, and don't speak." 。"I'm not from the Duke of Suku's manor, so I can't care about your belly. If you don't follow my wishes, I'll slash your neck with my sword." 。“ The woman, unsuccessful in her seduction attempt and frightened by his words, trembled and huddled in the carriage, mumbling a single reply: “Sir, rest assured” 。Then Ye Fei Zhou didn't speak any more. 。The carriage continued forward, traveling along a bustling street outside the city walls. The crowds on the street were thicker than before. 。At this time, a patrol of officers rode by. As they passed his carriage, they took particular notice of it. 。Because this carriage is so slow, it's actually faster for us to walk. 。If the speed is like this, why bother taking a carriage Just walk down, wouldn't that be enough 。Having thought this, some went to see the coachmen hurrying along. 。"At the sight of him, he immediately recognized who it was — "This, this isn't Young Master Ye Er, is it What brings the young master to the outer city in the middle of the night". 。Oh, and I almost forgot to mention, the flowers were picked personally by His Imperial Majesty from the tree, and the pastries were also freshly made this morning by His Imperial Majesty. 。Though t...
