Chapter 34 Sowing discord
The corners of Wang Shiqi's mouth twitched and she continued to talk nonsense.
"Originally, this is nothing. After all, we have no right to control who the prince favors. But I just feel sorry for you, Sister Zhao.
Think about it, at this critical moment, Concubine Jian is pregnant, so the prince will have to spend some of his limited time with Concubine Jian, and that bumpkin is the prince's beloved concubine.
Tell me, whose time will the prince sacrifice?"
She must be sacrificed!
Concubine Zhao wanted to scream out loud.
Concubine Wang looked at Concubine Zhao's bad face, smiled slightly, and said in a more calm tone: "But it doesn't matter, after we get through this period, maybe it will be fine after the baby is born."
"How can this be good?"
Concubine Zhao held the handkerchief tightly: "The child is not dead after being born, the prince must visit it often..."
As she was speaking, she suddenly fell silent.
He looked at Concubine Wang warily: "Do you want me to do something to Concubine Jian?"
Concubine Wang smiled and said, "Concubine Zhao, I didn't say that. I was just chatting with you casually."
She stood up and pretended to pat the other person's shoulder: "Oh, it's getting late. I'm leaving first. Concubine Zhao, please think about it carefully."
Concubine Zhao took a step back and said, "I will pretend I didn't hear what you said today. I won't be fooled!"
The concubine smiled confidently and left.
After everyone left, Concubine Zhao finally relaxed and sat down on the stone bench. "Bixue, tell me... is what she said true?"
Bixue didn't want her master to mess around. "Master, if this thing is done, what will the prince do if he finds out?"
What if the prince knew...
Concubine Zhao shook her head vigorously and answered simply: "I don't know."
Bishui: “…”
Can't you use your empty brain occasionally?
She advised: "If someone harmed your child, what would you do?
Will she sleep with the murderer as if nothing happened? Or will she send him away and stay with her unborn child?
When this happened to her, Concubine Zhao immediately understood.
She said in hatred: "Whoever harms my child, I will kill him!"
She suddenly understood: "Okay, it's just one child, right? Think of a way to get me pregnant."
Bixue was relieved for a moment, but then she became speechless again.
If she was really that smart and could come up with good ideas, why would she still be a servant?
But this is the master, Bixue could only take a deep breath and said: "Master, this kind of boudoir matter, I am a young girl, I don't know much, how about you send a letter to the mansion to ask?"
“…All right then!”
Concubine Zhao was about to scold Bixue for being useless, but then she thought that she was really not as good as herself in this regard, and finally Concubine Zhao slammed the stone table in anger.
"hiss"
Her palms hurt terribly.
Reluctantly, he said, "Let's go!"
Before leaving, he stared at the stone table indignantly, "Just wait, one day, I will replace it!"
Then he left in a rage.
The whole garden immediately became quiet.
Ji Yunqing didn't come out, so he waited patiently for a while and felt that the time was about right.
Just as she was about to speak, she saw someone coming back from outside.
It’s the king’s concubine!
Concubine Wang returned to the stone table, looked around, and signaled the maid to check carefully. Then she said with relief: "It seems that there is really no one. Let's go."
This time, the person left and never came back for a long time.
Ji Yunqing thought about it, walked around the big rock, waved to Hemerocallis, and the master and servant walked inside together quietly.
Previously, Ji Yunqing asked King Zhao to add a library, but King Zhao did not agree in the end. He only said that a library room could be added in Qianshi Garden.
Because the books placed here are all common books, they had been prepared long ago, but Ji Yunqing just forgot to come here.
Now that she was here this time, she decided to go over and take a look.
In addition to the strange-shaped rocks along the way, there were also various plants, including the brilliantly blooming forsythia, willow trees with tender leaves, and some trees that had no obvious features and that Ji Yunqing did not recognize.
The overall design does not appear monotonous, but rather complements each other and is very harmonious.
Soon they arrived at the two-story building in Qianshi Garden.
The main hall is quite spacious, with tables and chairs.
Xuancao explained: "Master, this is a place for the masters in the backyard to gather on weekdays. It is not open to outsiders. The other rooms are for the masters to entertain themselves."
There are about seven or eight rooms on each floor, containing different objects.
Ji Yunqing looked at each room with great interest.
There are piano rooms, chess rooms, study rooms, dance rooms, painting rooms, incense rooms, wine rooms, and even special rooms for weaving and embroidery.
Although there are many rooms, it does not appear cluttered.
There is actually a bookshelf in that study, but it is mainly used for practicing calligraphy. The room on the second floor is the library that Ji Yunqing wants.
There are many kinds of books here. Ji Yunqing quickly picked a book and sat in front of the desk to read.
Hemerocallis found the tea room, brewed a pot of tea, and placed it next to her master.
On the road outside, Concubine Wang waited for a long time, but no one came out, so she finally left with peace of mind.
When Ji Yunqing raised his head again, he felt hungry.
"Hemerocallis, let's go back."
"Yes, master."
Ji Yunqing and her servant walked out, thinking that they should not meet anyone again this time, as she was really hungry.
Sure enough, this time she returned to Shouzhuyuan smoothly.
In the yard, Xiuqiu and her two maids looked anxious.
"master!"
The three of them were happy to see the master and servant come back.
Xiuqiu stepped forward and asked with concern: "Master, where have you been? Why did you come back so late?"
Ji Yunqing looked at the concerned faces of the few people and said with a smile: "I haven't visited the garden for a long time since I entered the mansion. Today I took a casual walk. By the way, Concubine Jian is pregnant."
Concubine Jane is pregnant?
The three maids widened their eyes and immediately thought of the reason why their master was so abnormal today.
"Master, don't be sad. You will have a little master sooner or later."
"That's right. Given the prince's love for our master, it's only a matter of time before she gets pregnant with a little master."
Even Hemerocallis couldn't help but comfort her, blushing and whispering, "Master, please try harder. I heard that it's best to use a pillow under your body after sex. How about you try it?"
This was what her mother told her specifically.
Now her mother has almost recovered from her illness. When she heard that the money for the medicine was specially given by the master, her mother always wanted to repay him.
Hemerocallis said that her mother specifically reminded her because her master didn't have any children yet, without taking into account that she was still a virgin!
Ji Yunqing felt a little embarrassed to hear such a topic in public, and nodded hastily: "Well, I'll try it later."
In fact, there is no need to hold out too much hope.
As everyone knows, this is all King Zhao Ting is capable of.
But a few days later, Ji Yunqing was slapped in the face.
