Legends of Rebirth and Revenge - Chapter 448
“Empress, your Majesty’s father-in-law Wei sent someone to send a message. Your majesty will go to Chaoyang palace to see you after going down. Let’s go back to the palace quickly and get ready for the holy drive.” a round faced maid beside Zhao Guifei smiled and reminded her that she should be the big maid beside Zhao Guifei according to her clothes.
Zhao Guifei’s jade face was frosty. Her beautiful Phoenix eyes glanced at the palace maid and sneered: “this palace is not in a hurry. You are in a hurry to go back to see your majesty. Do you have any thoughts about your majesty? Since you are in a hurry, you should go back and wait.”
The tone of voice was full of ridicule. The great palace woman named Yuhuan was slightly stiff on her face and still smiled and bowed down: “the empress talked to the Lin side imperial concubine. The maidservant went to see her second highness first.”
His second highness is Cheng Rui, the son of Zhao Guifei and Huo Zheng. He has just turned one year old. It is when he is smart and lovely that he is loved as a treasure by the emperor and Zhao Guifei. Lin Yao once heard Huo Yan mention that the second prince born by concubine Zhao is indeed more favored than the great prince born by the palace maid. Although the eldest prince was raised at the Queen’s knee, he was not the Queen’s parent-child, and his temperament was dull and unpleasant. The second prince’s biological mother is a high-ranking imperial concubine and the emperor’s beloved son. If he is not too young, the second prince has a greater chance of being crown prince than the eldest prince. This is also the reason why the Queen’s party is eager to win over Huo Yan. Although the Queen’s father is the head of the cabinet, he is a civil servant. Zhao Guifei’s father is Ding’an Hou with military power. The gun is always more useful than the pen.
Moreover, Zhao Guifei has been favored for many years, but the queen has not been favored for many years. Compared with the two, everyone thinks that Zhao Guifei and the second prince have a better chance of winning.
Lin Yao sighed in his heart. Zhao Guifei is really a stunning beauty. No wonder she can get favor in the beautiful harem. It’s a pity that her temper is more arrogant after all. She is so arrogant and domineering to the big palace maids around her, not to mention outsiders?
How can you win over others to work for yourself?
It can only be said that the queen is too mediocre. Only by virtue of her beauty can Zhao Guifei run amok in the harem. I’m afraid that Zhao Guifei won’t be so arrogant and domineering as she is now.
When Yuhuan left, a trace of melancholy suddenly flashed on the face of Zhao Guifei, who had just returned to Fengyan with anger. The whole person didn’t want to be as sharp and mean as just now. Lin Yao was slightly stunned, but saw Zhao Guifei looking at her with a bitter smile: “scared you? I’m really sorry.”
Lin Yao thought she was apologizing for the ridicule of Yuhuan just now. He smiled and said, “it doesn’t matter. Your mother is polite.” it has nothing to do with her whether the master and servant are good or bad and how they relate to each other.
Zhao Guifei smiled bitterly. Her face was originally gorgeous, but now she showed some melancholy. It was like peony with dew and crabapple with residual red. The gorgeous color showed a sad color, which made her more beautiful than a demon. She looked at Lin Yao and shook her head gently: “it’s not for this, it’s…”
A few months ago, it was she who mistakenly believed Wen xueluo’s words and regarded her as an official woman kidnapped into the palace by Huo Zheng that made her escape. She also vaguely heard about Wen xueluo and King Wei. She felt sorry for Lin Yao, so she felt guilty about her.
Lin Yao was slightly stunned, lowered his eyes and said faintly, “the imperial concubine and empress need not blame themselves. The prince and the princess are gods and immortals. Now it’s a good thing that lovers get married. As for me, it’s also good to keep my heart.”
Zhao Guifei stared at her as if she was slightly distracted. After half a ring, she smiled and said, “you can see it“
Looking at her appearance, she looks like she has no desire. Zhao Guifei can’t help but envy her. If she had known this, would she be able to live with her heart like Lin Yao?
It should be… No. She and Lin Yao are two kinds of people. Lin Yao is as cold as ice, but she is as enthusiastic as fire, just like a moth who wants to jump into the sea of fire knowing that she will be burned.
Now regret… Can it be too late? Zhao Shushu blinked, trying not to let the acid in her eyes turn into tears.
“Madam, you…” Lin Yao thinks that Zhao Guifei’s appearance at the moment is very abnormal. It’s strange to think about her words and deeds. When Yuhuan was present, Zhao Guifei was still enthusiastically talking with her. She wanted to form an alliance with the king of Wei and help the second prince to sit on the throne of Prince. As soon as Yuhuan left, Zhao Guifei looked dejected and said strange things.
Did Zhao Guifei deliberately support Yuhuan?
As soon as the idea came out, Lin Yao was more and more confused. Zhao Guifei looked at her, smiled, pointed to Lin Yao’s stomach and said, “it’s been three months? When I was pregnant with Ruier, my stomach was already very big in three months. I guess most of your baby is a girl.”
In order to flatter the Empress Dowager and Huo Yan, most people in the palace and the Palace said that she must be pregnant with a boy. Lin Yao didn’t comment on this. What can you see from her stomach that hasn’t been pregnant for three months?
Zhao Guifei is a real person. Lin Yao smiled and said, “thank you for your kind words. I prefer girls.” the girls are clever and lovely. What’s wrong with them? Besides, if she really gave birth to a boy, wouldn’t the child become a thorn in Wen xueluo’s eye? I’m afraid Huo Yan will have a grudge against the child. The child can’t leave the royal family all his life. It’s really unknown what fate he will end up with.
Her solemn thanks stunned imperial concubine Zhao. She said with a loud smile, “you… Are really a wonderful person.” she seemed to be in a better mood. She winked at Lin Yao mischievously: “I used to be curious. I don’t know what kind of girl can cure people like his Highness the king of Wei? Now I know.”
“You don’t know. When I went to the palace to accompany the empress dowager, Wu, who is now the empress dowager, I met his Highness the king of Wei several times. Wu, he was already a famous young general at that time, and all the little girls in our boudoir admired him. The Empress also meant to choose Princess Wei from your daughters. Once I met his Highness the king of Wei to say hello, With the acquiescence of the empress, the mammies took us to hide behind the screen. I was excited to see how jade trees stand in the wind for his Highness the king of Wei. Unexpectedly, I shivered before he entered the door“
“At the beginning, I thought I was wearing thinner, but I didn’t know it at all.” Zhao Guifei smiled, and her beautiful Phoenix eyes were as bright and moving as the stars in the sky.
Lin Yao stared at Zhao Guifei blankly. Her naughty appearance of hiding her mouth and smiling seemed like a girl who didn’t know the world. Where was she like Zhao Guifei who had been spoiled for many years?
“Later, it was said that his Highness the king of Wei was a living iceberg. Everywhere he went, people trembled with cold.” Zhao Guifei smiled more happily: “when he said hello to the empress, I dared to stretch out my head and look at it. Junlang is really Junlang… That’s…”
Lin Yao couldn’t help being curious and looked up for the next half of her sentence. Zhao Guifei smiled and whispered, “it’s too scary. The empress asked him to identify the new antique porcelain. His Highness the king of Wei casually speculated three or four stories, all of which are… Bloody, violent and cruel“
“The seven noble girls we hid behind the screen, in addition to one peeing and four crying on the spot, the other two also had a high fever when they went back… My father wanted me to marry his Highness the king of Wei at that time. Their generals sympathized with each other more than literati. I almost fainted when I heard it… If I hadn’t cried and fasted, I might have really married the king of Wei’s house…” Zhao Guifei patted her chest with fear. She looked like the rest of her life, which made Lin Yao laugh.
It turns out that Huo Yan has long been famous. Princess Zhao’s temperament is unexpectedly lively. She doesn’t look like a bad person, and I don’t know how the arrogant and domineering reputation spread.
“Now I want to come, but I regret it…” Zhao Guifei held her cheek and looked thoughtful. Lin Yao smiled: “if your majesty hears this, she will be sad.”
“Sad?” Zhao Guifei just extended her gentle eyebrows and eyes, suddenly flashed a look of disgust, and murmured, “he won’t…”
The resentment that flashed on her face almost made Lin Yao think there was something wrong with her eyes. It is said that Zhao Guifei, who has been spoiled by technical secondary schools for many years and has a deep relationship with the emperor, even resented the emperor?
Before she could understand, there came the sound of the child’s brisk footsteps outside the door. A boy in royal clothes fell and bumped towards Princess Zhao under the protection of the jade ring, and vaguely called “mother”… The child should be Cheng Rui, the second prince born to Princess Zhao.
Yuhuan respectfully saluted Zhao Guifei to Lin Yao and said in a low voice, “your second highness woke up and insisted on looking for her mother. I had no choice but to bring your second highness here.”
There was a sneer in Zhao Guifei’s eyes: “rui’er slept well before coming out of the palace. Why didn’t he find his mother early or late? It’s just that he came to the palace at this time? It’s obvious that you bitch didn’t take good care of him!” Yuhuan was pale and knelt down on the ground carefully to apologize. He looked very pitiful. If he fell in the eyes of others, he must feel that the master Zhao Guifei was cruel to his servants. Lin Yao silently withdrew his eyes and thought to himself that Zhao Guifei’s behavior seemed to have a deep meaning.
The second prince Chengrui pounced into the arms of Zhao Guifei. Zhao Guifei carefully picked up Chengrui and made him giggle. The second prince was made of powder carved jade, especially his pink face and small hands and feet like lotus roots. Lin Yao stared at Chengrui in the arms of Zhao Guifei and really wanted to tease the fat Prince for a moment.
Zhao Guifei smiled and looked at her: “you’ll be a mother in a few months, and you should practice how to hold the child in advance.” when talking, you have to pass Chengrui to her. Lin Yao was stunned and subconsciously stretched out his hand to pick it up, but she saw her blocking the jade ring under the steps with her body by passing the child to her, and said in a voice that only two people can hear: “be careful, Queen“
