In the Kunning Palace, the Queen and the Crown Prince, mother and son, were sitting and talking to each other. The Crown Prince looked very bad, and the post of Governor of the River Patrol was given to King Zhao Ye Minyu. The Crown Prince came out of the Wenhua Palace and went directly to the Kunning Palace to pay his respects to the Queen.

.

The mother and son shooed away the maids and eunuchs and whispered in the Xinuan Pavilion. The queen knew that the prince had been robbed of his job by King Zhao, and she could only sigh sadly. In the court, King Zhao pressed forward step by step, and the prince could only resist.

The power to fight back. During this period, Xiao Zongchang took advantage of the opportunity of "Beijing inspection" to eliminate dissidents and denounced a group of officials who were close to the prince. All officials were in danger, and the prince was alone in the court.

solitary.

What the prince is more worried about is Ye Yichen. Today he helped Ye Minyu speak. If he really turns to Ye Minyu, then the prince will really die without a burial place!

After sighing for a while, the queen said: "It's because of my mother's incompetence that I didn't give you a good wife!" She always thought that the prince had been suppressed by King Zhao for a long time because King Zhao had the support of the Xiao family, but she never thought about the prince.

Her ability and character cannot stand up to the wall. "My mother is old and fading now. Even though I have the title of queen, I can't help you with anything!"

These words are indeed true. Although the Queen and the Emperor were a young couple, by now, the Queen has already aged and her relationship with the Emperor has long been indifferent. The Emperor only visited Kunning Palace symbolically once a month.

I just walked in, had a cup of tea and left. I was completely fulfilling my obligation. There was no such thing as staying over for a long time.

It is impossible for the prince not to envy Ye Minyu's maternal family, but now he can only comfort the queen: "Mother, please don't be like this. After all, Gu is a legitimate prince. Either he has made some big mistake, or his father is doting on the four of them again."

Brother, I won’t destroy Gu without any reason!”

The Queen was completely unable to help the previous dynasty in the struggle, so she had to think of the good. She said: "It has been more than three months since the Queen Mother's mourning period. Isn't there any good news from the Crown Princess?"

The prince choked when he was asked. When it comes to appearance, Yuxin's appearance is definitely first-class, even Yuxia is a little inferior to her. But she is too arrogant and lacks charm in bed, so the prince goes to Yuqing.

The number of visits to the main palace was very few, so how could Yuxin be pregnant.

The Queen understood these things. She could only console her: "Prince, I am watching from the sidelines. The Crown Princess is a good person. She is just a little arrogant and refuses to bow to you, but she is the chief minister."

It's normal for her to be a little arrogant as her legitimate granddaughter. You should treat her well for the sake of the emperor's eldest grandson, if not for anything else!"

The prince's expression changed.

The Queen added: "That Princess Zhao was jealous. The maid would be dragged out and beaten to death by her as soon as she got close to King Zhao! I heard that King Zhao also hated her very much, but even so, King Zhao was also a big fan.

He spends most of his time resting in her room. What does he want? Doesn't he just want to give the emperor a grandson?"

The high-ranking families attach great importance to their heirs, not to mention the royal family. Even these three words "emperor's eldest grandson" are not as important as they are. No matter who he and King Zhao give birth to, they will increase their chances of winning the heir. This

It's not that the prince doesn't understand the problem, but he needs someone to remind him.

The prince said goodbye to the queen and returned to Yuqing Palace. After some thought, he finally asked his personal eunuch to pass the message and rest in the prince's main hall at night.

When the news came, Dongnuan Pavilion was filled with joy. The girls were all excited. The prince and the princess had always respected each other since they got married. The prince was a lustful person, and he was not uninterested in Yuxin at first.

However, Yu Xin had always been cold and indifferent, and the prince gradually became reluctant to come to the main hall.

The Crown Princess is quite virtuous. As long as the Prince likes her, no matter whether it is a palace maid or a female official, there will be no one who doesn't nod when asking for her. The Prince has more choices, so he is even more reluctant to come to the main hall.

Seeing Yuxin's indifferent expression, Luzhi reminded her from the side: "Mother, it's time for you to put on your makeup!"

Yuxin felt sick when she thought of the prince. She wished that the prince would not come. She said calmly: "What's the rush?"

Luzhi is not young now, and Yuxin originally thought about letting her out to marry someone else, but Luzhi can't worry about his young lady. With her by his side, he can still persuade her. If she leaves, Yuxin's temperament won't help her.

You know what kind of trouble you are going to have with the prince.

After hearing this, Luzhi immediately knelt down and said, "Madam, you have forgotten what you promised Grandma Qigu last time. No matter what, just to have someone to rely on for the rest of your life, you have to give birth to a child."

It’s done!”

Hearing Yu Lan's name, Yu Xin's eyes brightened up. She let out a long sigh and thought about the moon outside the window for a long time: "That's all, let's call in the hairdresser the Queen gave me!

"

Ye Yichen did not return home that night. In the past few days, he had been making trouble in bed until midnight every night. Yulan was tortured to death by him every time. When Ye Yichen just left, she was still secretly glad: Today can

Have a good sleep, oh yeah!

Who would have thought that after she took a hot bath and lay on the bed, she tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She always felt that the bed was empty, as if someone was missing. She was frying pancakes on the bed until the middle of the night and even the clappers were knocked, but she still couldn't fall asleep.

Didn't fall asleep.

Xiaoyue was on duty today, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious when she saw this situation: "Girl, please go to bed early. You have to get up early tomorrow, and you have to have breakfast with the prince!"

Yulan didn't know when the prince would come back. Yulan asked, and Ye Yichen was going to stay in the court room tonight. He guessed that he would come out when the palace opened. The palace opened at... three o'clock. I guess.

He would have gone home at four o'clock at the latest. So Yu Lan asked the maids to wake her up early.

Yulan was also a little depressed. It wasn't that she didn't want to sleep, she couldn't sleep at all! "You light the lamp and bring the account book over and I'll look at it for a while."

Xiaoyue was a little stunned when she heard this: "Girl!"

Yulan said: "Go quickly, go quickly, I'll just watch for a while! I'll go to bed when I feel sleepy."

Yulan didn't know when she fell asleep. When Xiaoyue woke her up at three o'clock the next morning, she discovered a serious problem: her menstruation was coming! She didn't know if she had done too much exercise in bed recently.

Well, her baby day came two days earlier than usual. Fortunately, she didn’t have a wedding day!

Yu Lan's room immediately became agitated.

As expected, Ye Yichen came back early in the morning. He saw Xiaoyue and Xiaoyu holding Yulan up one by one to greet him. His little wife was pale and saluted him with two big dark circles under her eyes. Ye Yichen quickly reached out and

She supported him: "What's going on? How come you're so haggard after just one night!"

Ye Yichen waved his hand, and Qian's mother took several girls and all avoided it. In the past few days, they had finally understood that Ye Yichen didn't like the maids to disturb him and his new wife when they were alone.

Ye Yichen helped Yu Lan sit on the bed and said teasingly: "We haven't seen each other for just one night, and you think this about me?"

Yulan was really ashamed and angry, but what the prince said was a bit close to the point. She hit the prince on the chest with her small fist: "Your Majesty, you are talking nonsense, that person is... that one is coming!"

Ye Yichen's expression changed: "Why are you getting up so early when your little days are here? There is no mother-in-law waiting for you to greet you in this house! Your mother-in-law and maids are the same, so they don't know how to persuade you!"

These words made Yu Lan feel very worried: "I want to get up on my own, how can they stop me! I'm waiting to have breakfast with you!"

When Ye Yichen heard that the roots were still with him, he smiled and said: "I just said it casually yesterday, why did you take it seriously? If you had known it, you wouldn't have said it! In the future, please remember that there are not so many rules in our house.

I will marry you

I didn’t come back to bind you with those rules. I married you so that you could give me children and make you happy. When it comes to serving me, there are so many maids and women in this house, which one can’t serve you better?

Better?"

Ye Yichen's words really spoke to Yulan's heart, but in ancient times, serving her husband was the wife's first priority, so Yulan said somewhat against her will: "How can I do that? It is my obligation to serve the prince. This is a rule for several lifetimes!"

The prince waved his hand boldly: "I don't care what I say in the palace! If I say there are no such rules, you don't have to worry about them!"

Yulan's eyes were bright and she wanted to applaud the prince! Maybe she looked too cute. Ye Yichen smiled and rubbed his green stubble on her face. Yulan screamed, and he laughed and screamed with satisfaction.

Qiu Ling and Qiu Hong went to the clean room to take a shower and change clothes.

When Ye Yichen changed his clothes and came out of the clean room, the cook in the kitchen happened to unload the breakfast. Qian's mother led the maids to place the meal in the west room. Yu Lan invited Ye Yichen to sit down and eat.

Ye Yichen looked at the table full of porridge, rice and various side dishes, but his brows furrowed. Yulan said: "Is there anything that the prince is dissatisfied with?"

Ye Yichen snorted and said: "I don't know how the kitchen is served?" He pointed at Xiaoyue and said: "Go and talk to the kitchen manager and ask him to make a spinach and pork liver porridge and bring it in!"

Ye Yichen's aura was so strong that he frowned, and Yulan felt a sudden tremor in her heart, especially Qian's mother and the other girls. Xiaoyue was initially nervous, thinking that the food was not to the prince's taste, but after hearing this, she was completely

She smiled happily. This was obviously to replenish blood and Qi, and was prepared for Yulan!

Yulan didn't expect the prince to be so considerate, and her heart felt warm.

After a while, spinach and pork liver porridge came into the small kitchen. Ye Yichen kicked the maids out and took a bowl himself and handed it to Yulan.

In fact, Yulan really didn't have much appetite for pork liver, but he still drank a bowl to save his face. Ye Yichen was not very particular about eating. He knew that he ate quickly, so he deliberately slowed down and waited for Yulan.

Yu Lan asked with concern: "The emperor didn't send you to fight, right?"

Ye Yichen smiled and said: "We can't afford to fight this battle anyway! The emperor has sent King Zhao as the governor of Jiangxi Province and the admiral to oversee the military affairs of the provinces of Jiangxi, Shaanxi, Hubei, Yunnan, Guizhou, Huguang and Guangzhou!"

Yulan let out a long breath: "Great!"

Ye Yichen felt funny when he saw Yulan's little appearance: "However, the emperor still gave me an imperial edict, asking me to take charge of the general affairs, break up the three major battalions, form the 12th regiment battalion, and train the soldiers of the local guards.

!" Since the start of the Battle to Defend the Capital, many knowledgeable people have written letters requesting that the establishment of the capital camp be reformed and the army's combat effectiveness be enhanced. Because there are too many interests involved, the emperor has been hesitant. Now the reform has finally begun.

Yu Lan was extremely keen: "Change the three major battalions into the 12th regiment battalion? Doesn't that mean there are nine more governors?" This is a very lucrative job. It is said that Ye Yichen's achievements are so impressive that the emperor can rest assured.

Leave such an important matter to him?

Ye Yichen took a bite of the dish and said with a smile: "Of course your brother doesn't want me to do it, but how can such a thing get around the Governor's Mansion of the Fifth Army, and how can it get around this king, the Governor!"

The things here must be very complicated, and Yulan doesn't care much about this kind of political struggle. Anyway, it's enough to know that Ye Yichen didn't suffer any loss. Yulan echoed a few sentences and changed the topic. But Ye Yichen looked at Yulan's belly with a slight expression.

Somewhat disappointed.

Yulan's scalp felt numb when he saw him, and she couldn't help but ask: "My lord, why are you looking at me like this?"

Ye Yichen said: "I thought that with all our hard work these days, there would be some news in your stomach! Who knows..."
