1174. Chapter 1174 Hope
The confidants around Hu Yue'er were all beaten to death and sent away because of the poisoning. It was like she had lost her eyes and ears in Xiuhe Palace, unable to see or hear what was going on outside. This made her She felt a sense of insecurity, and Miao Ling would definitely not tell her. She could only start with other little palace maids. Maybe there was someone else who could be used?
Except for Miao Ling, all the maids selected to come to Xiuhe Palace have just entered the palace. Especially Xiximei, who is young and full of expectations for the future. She feels that as long as she can escape the favor of Empress Shu, she will definitely be able to I want to live a good life, so I can’t wait for Concubine Shu to see how useful she is, but when it comes to the palace recently, it seems that there is really nothing to say, “Your Majesty, I haven’t heard anything happened in the palace recently.”
Disappointment flashed across Hu Yue'er's face.
Sumei's heart tightened when she saw it. Her Majesty must have wanted to reuse her, so she asked her about these things, "My Majesty, I heard something, but... this came from Concubine An, slave. I don’t know if it’s true or false.”
"What's the matter?" Hu Yue'er asked without interest. What came from An Xiuzhen was indeed unknown.
"I heard that the envoy from Qi State left today. Before leaving, he proposed a marriage to the emperor... It seems that he wanted to marry their Qi State princess as a noble concubine." Sumei said softly.
Hu Yue'er's expression changed, "What?"
Sumei said hurriedly, "Your Majesty, all servants have heard about it, and the Emperor has not agreed to it."
The princess of Qi State married to Jin State... and became a noble concubine?
Hu Yue'er's face turned pale and green in turns. She closed her eyes and thought about the possibility of this matter. This was not An Xiuzhen's deliberate rumor, I was afraid it was true.
Will the emperor agree?
She thought of Lu Yaoyao at Chengde Villa. If the emperor hesitated, he must have been thinking of Lu Yaoyao, not anyone else. With Lu Yaoyao's well-known jealous temperament, she would definitely not be happy about the marriage. In the future, when the princess of Qi enters the palace, she will probably be incompatible with Lu Yaoyao.
Thinking that a woman with a nobler background than Lu Yaoyao would become a concubine, and the emperor could not neglect her, she suddenly felt a sense of revenge. She sincerely hoped that Princess Qi could enter the palace as soon as possible and let her deal with Lu Yaoyao. .
What she doesn't dare to do and can't do can only be done by others.
After going through so many things, even if she didn't want to harbor hatred, she still had resentment in her heart.
"Have you ever heard of which princess Qi wants to marry?" Hu Yuer asked in a low voice.
Sumei shook her head gently, "These are all what the other maids said in private. Then King Qi said in the main hall that in the future, the emperor will have to propose marriage in person."
Hu Yue'er smiled widely when she heard this. Qi is indeed the most powerful country in the world. Even marrying a princess is so domineering. If the emperor goes to propose marriage to the princess of Qi in person, even if he is just a noble concubine, he will probably surpass Lu Yaoyao in the future. .
This news is so refreshing.
"Empress..." Seeing that Hu Yue'er didn't look sad at all, Sumei felt strange in her heart. The other nobles were nervous and scared when they heard that the emperor would marry the princess of Qi, but why was Concubine Shu not worried at all.
Hu Yue'er said with a smile, "It's okay. If anything happens in the palace in the future, remember to tell me. I won't treat you badly."
Sumei saluted with a smile on her face, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely do a good job for Your Majesty."
"Go down." Hu Yue'er was worried that Miao Ling would come back, so she sent Sumei away.
Sure enough, not long after Sumei left, Miao Ling came back.
"Mother, this is the medicine sent by the Royal Hospital. It's just right for your mouth." Miao Ling took out a bowl of medicine from the food box.
Hu Yue'er suffered a great loss after being poisoned. She still needs to drink medicine every day to support herself. However, she knows that her voice will always be so hoarse.
She took the medicine from Miao Ling's hand and drank it all. No matter whether the medicine was good for her or not, she would drink it.
"My health has improved a lot now. It's really boring in Xiuhe Palace. Let the sisters in the palace come and walk around these two days." Hu Yue'er lowered her head and said calmly.
Miao Ling glanced at her and remembered what Eunuch Fu had ordered, "Yes, my queen, I will invite the queens from each palace today."
Hu Yue'er smiled with satisfaction. She gently touched her belly. There must be many people who want to see her, whether it's for her or the child in her belly.
…
…
An Xiuzhen couldn't help laughing sarcastically when she learned that Concubine Shu was going to invite the sisters in the palace to appreciate the chrysanthemums in Xiuhe Palace.
"Concubine Shu must have heard about Princess Qi, so she became anxious. Then she remembered the other people in the palace. Haha, I thought she wanted to hide in Xiuhe Palace for three to five years." An Xiuzhen sneered. say.
The noble man snorted, "Isn't that right? It seems like you will be killed if you leave Xiuhe Palace."
"Well, no matter what, it's Concubine Shu after all. Since she invited us today, let's go and have a seat." After all, Princess Qi hasn't entered the palace yet, and she is still the most favored Concubine in the palace. She can The women who forced the queen to Chengde Villa would not dare to show their faces no matter how jealous they were.
An Xiuzhen suppressed the jealousy welling up in her heart, "We are just complaining."
When they arrived at the Xiuhe Palace, Hu Yue'er sat on the Kang dressed plainly. When she saw An Xiuzhen and the others coming in, she said with a smile, "Sisters are here, please sit down without courtesy."
Hearing Hu Yue'er's voice, An Xiuzhen and others were startled, "Empress, your voice..."
Hu Yue'er smiled, touched her belly and said, "This child is very noisy. He vomited several times in the morning and his voice became hoarse."
These words immediately turned everyone's doubts into jealousy. They wanted to be tortured, but there was no chance.
"Your Majesty, you should take care of your health." An Xiuzhen said sourly, "There are not many people in the whole palace who are as lucky as Your Majesty."
The noble lady said, "I am the only one."
Hu Yue'er smiled and said, "My sisters are young and beautiful, so they will definitely have a chance."
"Not everyone can have the opportunity." An Xiuzhen said, "I just hope that when Princess Qi enters the palace in the future, we can still have some room to survive."
"Princess Qi?" Hu Yue'er was stunned for a moment, her face turned slightly pale, "What does my sister mean by this?"
An Xiuzhen said exaggeratedly, "Haven't you heard about it yet? Qi and Jin are getting married."
Another Ping Guiren who looked more stable said, "This is still a matter of no concern, An Bin should not talk about it anymore."
"Why is it missing? Maybe it will come true soon." An Xiuzhen said.
Hu Yue'er's face turned pale, and she suddenly clutched her stomach and became speechless.
Everyone else was shocked when they saw her like this, "Empress, what's wrong with you?"
