Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 224 Do you want my eldest brother to become a deserter?

An uninvited guest came to Prince Ling's Mansion.

five princesses.

Speaking of which, Murong Jiu hadn't seen the fifth princess for some days since his father and brother went off to war.

Even the queen kept a low profile in the harem, fearing the emperor, let alone her, the fifth princess?
The fifth princess was also extremely favored earlier. After all, there are only two princesses in the whole palace, the other is only seven years old, and she can act coquettishly and compete for favor, how can the father not favor her?
However, when Concubine Jing's third prince's incident came out, she realized that everything in the past was just bubbles in the cup, fleeting, and her father's love for her was all fake.

The father pretended to favor the eldest brother in order to make the second brother against him, and to make the third brother sit back and watch the fight between tigers.

Pretending to dote on the princess of his own only makes people think that the emperor respects the queen. Then the second emperor brother, as the queen's legitimate son, also has the opportunity to become the prince.

After all, everything my father did was for the sake of Concubine Jing, that despicable maid, and the son of that despicable maid, the Third Brother.

Concubine Jing was just a peasant girl, a bastard who waited on others. However, her mother was a very different person from Concubine Jing, but now she allowed this bitch to ride on her head. Not to mention the queen, the Fifth Princess herself was also very angry. Difficult to eliminate.

The fifth princess was even more angry when she heard that her father had recently planned to marry her off to a small family.

With things on my mind, time flies by.

Unconsciously, I have been waiting for half an hour!

The fifth princess stood up angrily and said coldly to Butler Lin who was waiting aside:
"Your princess is so arrogant. In such a cold weather, you asked me to wait here for half an hour. Do you think that because she is pregnant, I can't do anything to her?"

"What does the princess want to do with me? I'm right here, listening."

Murong Jiu was supported on the left and right by Chuntao and Hongyi, and she walked slowly into the flower hall. Her voice was cold and her appearance was stunning. Even with her big belly, she gave people the feeling that the room was much brighter as soon as she entered. .

The fifth princess' face was slightly stiff, but her eyes fell on Murong Jiu's belly.

Although Murong Jiu was wearing loose clothes, her belly was a bit scary, as if she could give birth at any time, especially since Murong Jiu was still very slender.

The fifth princess took a few steps back.

She thought that if anything happened to Murong Jiu, the palace would definitely blame her.

His father's favor is fake. When the eldest brother comes back alive, he will be in trouble.

"Sister-in-law, don't get me wrong. I'm just complaining. You also know that I'm an outspoken person and don't have any ill intentions. The temperature has dropped and it rained today. You made me wait here for more than half a day. Time, I must be anxious."

Murong Jiu glanced at the fifth princess unexpectedly. Unexpectedly, after not seeing each other for several days, the fifth princess spoke much better than before, and she was not as arrogant and condescending as before.

This tone sounded somewhat sincere.

However, Murong Jiu didn't take it to heart. It made no difference to her whether the fifth princess was scheming or not. It was not like she didn't know the fifth princess's character.

"Princess has also seen that although I am in the second trimester now, because I am pregnant with twins, it is harder than ordinary pregnant women. In addition, I had a fetal movement at Concubine Jing's place before. If the movement is too big, sometimes If you see red, you can only move slowly and lie down for more time to nourish the fetus. If the princess hadn't told you to bring a message to the Queen, I would not have come to meet you."

"Twins?!"

No wonder the belly is so big!

The fifth princess was extremely surprised. She originally thought that Murong Jiu was not seeing anyone because she was afraid that others would find out that she was pregnant and think that she was not pregnant with the eldest brother's child, because it had only been half a year since Murong Jiu married into the palace.

If it was the eldest brother's child, Murong Jiu would have only been pregnant for more than six months.Pregnancy in ten months. Pregnancy in ten months. According to the mother, the pregnant woman will actually give birth in a little more than nine months.In other words, Murong Jiu is still three months away from giving birth.

But if it is twins, it seems normal for the belly to be so big.

She felt that Murong Jiu was actually too thin and appeared to have a big belly.

However, Murong Jiu was actually more than seven months pregnant, and her due date was around New Year's Eve.

It's hard to tell whether it was born earlier or later.

In her previous life, Murong Jiu was born prematurely and her child was extremely weak. But now, she pays attention to her health and exercises, and she believes that she will be able to give birth to a healthy child.

The fifth princess said: "Congratulations to the emperor's sister-in-law. When the emperor comes back and sees the two children, he will be very happy."

There was some gloating in my heart. In the Yan Dynasty, twins were not auspicious, because many women died giving birth to twins. People believed that twins were unlucky and would bring disaster to the clan.

Even if she can be born safely, she seems to have to hold one in her arms and drown her.

The fifth princess couldn't hide something in her heart, and she raised the corner of her mouth and said: "The queen is worried about the health of the emperor's sister-in-law, so she asked me to come to visit you and bring you some supplements. However, I have some personal matters to discuss with the emperor. My sister-in-law said, please ask the emperor’s sister-in-law to drive away the servants.”

Murong Jiu waved her hand, and Butler Lin and others went out, but Chuntao and Hongyi did not leave, and were by her side.

The fifth princess frowned and said, "Why don't these two slaves leave?"

"I'm not feeling very well right now. They are by my side and can take care of me. Princess, don't worry, my maids are very strict with their mouths and won't say anything that shouldn't be said outside."

Although the fifth princess was unhappy, she did not persist. She was afraid that Murong Jiu would be framed for her accidental miscarriage. This kind of thing had happened a lot in the palace before.

It would be better if the maid is here.

So she said: "My second emperor brother is very concerned about your health and asked me to say hello to you."

"Is this a private matter that the princess wants to talk about?"

Murong Jiu stood up slowly, "My body is taken care of by the prince. If this is what the princess wants to say, please come back and see me off!"

"Wait a moment!"

The fifth princess also stood up immediately to stop people from coming in. She whispered: "Sister-in-law, let's not talk about the second emperor brother. What I want to say is actually related to your eldest brother!"

Murong Jiu turned to look at her: "Oh? What is the relationship between the princess and my eldest brother?"

The fifth princess looked a little shy and said to her: "I heard that the weapons of the Huns are very terrifying. My second emperor brother was injured by the fire and thunder. I am worried that brother Fu Heng will also be injured. I hope you can write to me." One letter to ask your eldest brother to come back to Beijing."

Murong Jiu narrowed her eyes. Unexpectedly, the fifth princess was still thinking of her eldest brother.

It's just that the fifth princess's thoughts are too ridiculous.

She said in a sarcastic voice: "Princess, do you want my eldest brother to become a deserter and be reviled by everyone in the world?"

The fifth princess said anxiously: "No! No! How could I harm him? What I mean is that you first ask Father for an order and find a reason to bring your eldest brother back. You have saved Father and Concubine Jing. Father I will definitely agree! Then, you can use your physical discomfort as an excuse to write a letter asking your eldest brother to come back from the border!"
