Seeing that the princess was still sad, Murong Qingcheng said,""I feel thirsty. Is it convenient for you to give me a bowl of tea?”
Xue Lingwu instructed Ruyi to go in and pour some water.
"Do you have something to say?" "Have a seat," said Xue Lingwu.
"Actually, I am the same as you. I don't want to be locked in the palace all day long.”Qingcheng went straight to the point.
"Really?"
Qingcheng nodded solemnly. Being in the palace was like this paper kite, someone would eventually lead you along.”
" Who are you?" Xue Lingwu relaxed.”
"The female, Murong Qingcheng, should be chosen."
" You…" Xue Lingwu smiled bitterly." You didn't hear who I was just now, did you?"”
Qingcheng stood up and bowed." Murong Qingcheng greets the princess of Xuezhen Kingdom!"”
Xue Lingwu was a little surprised." You're older than this princess. Now that we're both candidates, why are you bowing to me?"”
"I just want to let Princess know that the Golden Gilt Country is not completely useless. It is natural that it cannot compare to our hometown, but there are rules and dignity here, beautiful scenery, and friends worth making. There must be a reason for him to live.”
Xue Lingwu recalled Qingcheng's words and felt as if she had suddenly been enlightened. She finally revealed a sincere smile.""Listening to you is better than reading ten years of books.”
"Actually, the princess should be thanking the considerate maid.”
"Ruyi's father is a cook in the palace. She followed me since she was very young. Because she was sensible, father agreed to let her come with me.”"What about you, Miss Murong?" asked Xue Lingwu.”
"My father and brother are all officials in the court. The Crown Prince wants to choose a concubine, so he can only participate.”
"How about I call you sister?" Xue Lingwu asked.
"I dare not."
The two of them chatted for a while more before Xue Lingwu said,""Originally, I was extremely resistant to this imperial palace. There was nothing here that was worthy of my liking, but after talking to you for a while, I don't know why, but when I looked into your eyes, I felt very at ease.”
"The days of choosing a woman are not easy. If I don't find something to do, I'll really be bored to death.”"Princess, you've come from afar. I'll offer you a cup of tea to welcome you."”She took the cup that Ruyi handed over and poured a cup for the princess first. She then raised another cup and drank it in one gulp.
"Sister is really a straightforward person. It's getting late. Why don't we eat together?”
"There's no need for dinner. I'm afraid the two maids will be anxious if I don't go back. I've never been to Xuezhen, so why don't you tell me something about Xuezhen?”
Speaking of her own country, Xue Lingwu slowly said,"" The Xuezhen Nation is located to the north of the Jinliu Nation. It's most beautiful when it snows, and everything is sparkling and translucent. Although our products are not as rich as the Jinliu Nation, our people are kind, simple, and self-sufficient. It's just that we often suffer from the harassment of foreign races. My father is always miserable. Although I have several royal brothers, they are all weak and incompetent. Therefore, my father wants to protect his country through marriage. I have no choice but to leave my hometown and come to this unfamiliar country.”
"I can fully understand your feelings. Even though the Imperial Palace is not far from our Murong Clan, I still miss my family every day."”
Xue Lingwu looked at Qingcheng and asked in a low voice,""Sister, do you have someone you like?"
Qingcheng shook her head.
"I won't hide it from you, sister. I do." "He's my guard and also a general," Xue Lingwu told the truth. In his eyes, I was the cutest and purest princess. I felt contented and happy with his company. He is the man who loves me the most in this world, even more than my father and mother. He never let me suffer the slightest bit of harm. But now, for the sake of the country's survival, we were forced to leave. In the Imperial Palace without him, I indeed had the heart to die.”
As she spoke, Xue Lingwu seemed to be a little powerless and her expression was very bad.
"Princess 'mood has been extremely bad these days, and her appetite isn't good either, that's why she looks so haggard!”Ruyi explained.
"For the sake of the person you love to be at ease, the princess should eat and rest well.”Qingcheng said," I know a little about medicine. Why don't you let me take your pulse and give you a prescription? I'm sure it'll be useful."”
"That's good, this servant also feels that these days princess 'body is getting worse by the day.”Ruyi, on the other hand, was very enthusiastic. She quickly pulled Princess 'wrist to Qingcheng's hand.
Xue Lingwu did not object.
Qingcheng carefully checked her pulse, and after a moment, her face suddenly darkened. The princess didn't know what was going on.
"How is it? Is the princess sick?" Ruyi asked Qingcheng.
"Princess, have you had any morning sickness these few days?”Qingcheng asked.
"Yes, the princess always says that she doesn't want to eat.”Ruyi replied.
"Do you feel cold all over recently?”Qingcheng asked.
This time, it was the princess who nodded.”
"Princess, forgive me for being blunt, but how long has it been since your Moon Messenger?”Qingcheng stared at her face.
The princess's face instantly turned even paler. Her lips trembled as she asked,"Don't tell me, you mean?"
"I don't want to lie to you. It's true. You're pregnant!”Qingcheng answered.
"What?!" "Princess, what's going on?"”
Xue Lingwu lowered her head and said with a flushed face,""That's right. Two months ago, we ate the forbidden fruit, but I didn't regret it at all. At that moment, I was the happiest woman!”
"Ah!" Ruyi was speechless. She stared at the princess for a long time before she said with a pale face,""It's over, princess. This is a capital crime!”
"Did no one check your body when you entered the palace?" Qingcheng asked.
"No, I haven't. Maybe I don't think it's appropriate." Xue Lingwu replied.
"Your sweetheart obviously doesn't know, right?”Qingcheng asserted.
" Yes." Xue Lingwu nodded." We've been separated for more than a month. I only found out now." Sigh, I can't hide from what should come. It's just that I don't have fate with this child in my stomach. I'm afraid we'll have to go to the Yellow Springs together. However, this is good too. With my son accompanying me, we won't be lonely on the road to the afterlife.”After saying that, she cried silently.
Looking at the princess's pitiful appearance, Qingcheng's heart was moved.""Princess, don't be in a hurry to cry. You have to think of a way to protect you and the child.”
Ruyi suddenly knelt in front of Qingcheng." Miss, this servant knows that you are a good person. Please think of a way to save our princess. Ruyi will be grateful for your kindness even if she has to work like a cow or a horse in her next life!”
Qingcheng said to Ruyi," I haven't thought of a solution yet. However, although the princess's current status is to be selected as a female, she doesn't have a real status. Strictly speaking, she isn't the crown prince's concubine. Even if the truth is exposed, she will be sent back to her country because of her status as the princess of the Xuezhen Kingdom. But if that happens, what will the people of the Xuezhen Kingdom think of the princess? A princess who was engaged in a marriage alliance was rejected. How humiliating was this?”
"I don't care so much. As long as I can leave the palace, even if I have to wander around, I have to protect the child I share with him!”Xue Lingwu caressed her abdomen with a firm gaze.""I think he will come to me sooner or later.”
"Even if General Li can come to Jinliu Country, he can't enter the palace gates.”Ruyi said.
"That's even better. Our family of three can reunite in the netherworld!”Xue Lingwu was determined.
"Princess, for the sake of this child, you can't have any more thoughts of dying." Qingcheng said.”
"You and I met by chance. Why are you helping me? If I make things worse, won't I implicate you?”Xue Lingwu had thought it through." It's enough that you're involved with Ming Tang and me in this life. I can't implicate you, Sister."”
"I don't know why either. Maybe I just don't want anything to happen to your child." Qingcheng said.”
Xue Lingwu was moved to tears." Sister, I'm so lucky to meet you in this palace. You're really our living Bodhisattva."”
Xue Lingwu wanted to kneel before Qingcheng, but Qingcheng immediately stopped her.""You're pregnant, so I can't accept such a big gift. Alright, it's getting late, so I should return to Changrui Palace. I'll come to see you tomorrow night, but I might be a little late.”
"I have no one to rely on in this palace. Now, I can only rely on sister.”Xue Lingwu said gratefully.
"Allow me to go back and think of a way.”
"Yes."
Ruyi watched Qingcheng leave with the paper kite in her hand.""Princess, we've really met a benefactor.”
"That's right. Looking into her eyes, I knew that she wouldn't lie to me. The child and I will definitely be safe.”As Xue Lingwu spoke, she muttered to herself,""Mingtang, where are you? I really want to see you!"
Miss Changrui Palace, you're finally back. Where did you go to pick up the paper kite?”Seeing that the young lady had returned, Qingfeng was finally relieved.""It's almost dark. It's time to eat.”
Ming Yue helped Miss to wash her hands.”
"It's fine. I'll just repair it later.”Qingcheng washed her hands and looked at the food on the table.""Have you eaten?"
"Not yet."
"You guys eat together, it'll be more lively.”Qingcheng smiled as she extended the invitation.
Qingfeng Mingyue did not stand on ceremony and sat down to eat.
Ming Yue said," Miss, you haven't returned yet. How can my sister and I have the mood to eat? I'm actually very hungry."”
"You're the greedy one!" Qing Feng said embarrassedly.
"Aren't you the same!" Ming Yue retorted.
"You guys are like a pair of clowns sometimes!”Qingcheng buried her head in her food after she finished speaking.
After the meal, Qingcheng fixed the paper kite. Suddenly, she thought of something and said,""Qingfeng, go to the imperial medicine room tomorrow morning and tell them that I haven't been sleeping well. Tell them to prescribe some medicine to calm my nerves.”
"Yes, Miss doesn't sleep well. She should drink some medicine to nourish herself.”Qing Feng remembered.
Qingcheng wrote a note and said to the two maids,""I'm going to check on Minmin. I wonder if she's rested yet.”
Ever since Ji Minmin had met her father, she had locked herself in her room and prayed to the gods and Buddhas, praying that her mother would be healthy and that the family would be safe.
Qingcheng went to see her but was stopped by Ah Ji, who was standing guard at the side.""Miss Qingcheng, my young miss has said that she's going to recite the scriptures sincerely and no one is allowed to disturb her. I'm really sorry.”
"It's hard for her to be filial. It's fine. It's the same if I look for you."
"Looking for me?" Ah Ji was stunned.
"I can't leave, so I'll have to trouble you to get some medicine from the imperial medicine room tomorrow. The prescription has already been written.”Qingcheng passed the note to Ah Ji.
Ah Ji agreed without even looking at him."Miss, I can't read. Don't worry, Ah Ji won't forget.”
"Thank you very much."
"Miss is too polite. Miss has always helped us. It is only right for Ah Ji to help you.”Ah Ji laughed loudly.
