Reborn as the crippled king's favorite

Chapter 44 The Queen sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight

The emperor personally came to celebrate Concubine Qi's birthday and gave her enough face.

Even the queen had to come in person to deliver gifts.

Concubine Qi was in a very good mood after encountering a wall with Jun Yuyan and Murong Jiu. Her whole face was red and she had a rather proud smile on her delicate face.

The more aggrieved the queen was, the prouder she felt.

The second prince had been looking for an opportunity to talk to Murong Jiu alone, but Murong Jiu wanted to see what he could say from his hypocritical mouth.

But she didn't expect Jun Yuyan to be by her side intentionally or unintentionally, and the second prince couldn't find a chance to do anything.

Seeing the anxious look flashing in the second prince's eyes, Murong Jiu's lips curled up.

At this time, the fifth princess suddenly said loudly:

"Sister-in-law, today is my mother's birthday. Why don't you drink?"

Her voice immediately turned everyone's attention to Murong Jiu.

The fifth princess already knew about Murong Jiu's pregnancy, and her eyes were somewhat provocative and gloating.

She is Jun Haoze's biological sister, so she naturally takes charge of everything and will not reveal it to anyone, but this does not prevent her from scaring Murong Jiu.

Murong Jiu clenched his hands tightly in his sleeves.

But before she spoke, Jun Yuyan said for her:
"Ajiu feels cold and can't drink."

Jun Haoze immediately smiled and said: "Don't drink if you can't help it. Don't make yourself uncomfortable. Father doesn't like people who drink and cause trouble."

He pretended to care about the child in Murong Jiu's belly.

Unfortunately, Murong Jiu lowered his head and couldn't see the other person's moved expression.

"If you can't drink, don't drink. Okay, I'm a little tired. You juniors, please have fun."

The emperor stood up.

Concubine Qi quickly stood up and said, "I'll send you my concubine."

Concubine Qi sent the emperor out, and the other concubines suddenly lost interest in the banquet.

When Concubine Qi came back, the concubines were about to say goodbye.

At this time, Chen Meiren, who was beside the queen, suddenly said: "Why didn't Mr. Hui come to congratulate the imperial concubine on her birthday today? Are you sick again?"

As soon as the words came out, Concubine Qi's face darkened slightly.

She only said: "Hui Gui is delicate and frail. It's raining outside. It would be better not to come. If you fall carefully, I will bear the blame."

Chen Meiren: "Yes. Besides, Your Majesty has been here for several days in a row, and Hui Guiren has been taking care of her night and day. I'm afraid her delicate body can't bear it. Fortunately, Your Majesty takes special pity on her."

The faces of all the concubines were not pretty.

This Hui Gui is a fellow villager of Yun Bin. When he entered the palace earlier, he was inconspicuous and not favored.

But after Yun Bin became pregnant, Hui Guiren had been taking care of her. Every time she came and went, she won the emperor's love and affection.

At first, no one paid much attention to her, thinking that Hui Gui just looked like Xiaojiabiyu, and maybe the emperor would lose interest after a few days.

But who could have expected that the emperor would become more and more fond of her, spending ten days in Hui Guiren's palace during the past half month.

I'm afraid I will go today, and I don't know what kind of magic power this Hui Gui has.

Concubine Qi thought that it was her birthday today and the emperor had left early, wondering if he was going to Hui Guiren's palace again.

Her face darkened, and she was about to scold Meiren Chen, when the queen said softly: "Okay, Meiren Chen, please be careful. Which concubine does your Majesty favor? You are not allowed to make any arbitrariness."

Chen Meiren quickly lowered her head: "I know my mistake."

Because of this, the atmosphere at the scene became even more tense. The concubines resigned one after another, and Jun Yuyan also stood up.

"Mother, I still have something to do in the son's house, so I'll go back first." Concubine Qi frowned and glanced at Murong Jiu who was lowering his head behind Jun Yuyan. She felt irritated because there were outsiders, so she couldn't beat her and waved her hand. Let them go down.

The second prince, fifth princess and others also stood up.

"Brother Imperial, wait a moment."

The second prince caught up with Jun Yuyan and Murong Jiu.

Jun Yuyan turned his head and looked at him calmly.

"Brother Imperial, I haven't congratulated you on your great achievements in catching the remnants of the previous dynasty."

"Then I have to thank my second brother, otherwise I would not have such an opportunity."

Jun Haoze narrowed his eyes slightly. Sure enough, there was a traitor in his house who tipped off Jun Yuyan.

"Nothing else, I and the princess will take the first step."

"and many more……"

Before Jun Haoze finished speaking, Jun Yuyan had already held an umbrella and led Murong Jiu out.

He frowned fiercely.

Jun Yuyan was so protective and concerned about Murong Jiu. Naturally, it could not be because he liked him. Like himself, he was attracted to Murong Jiu's medical skills and did not want him to talk to Murong Jiuduo.

Stupid woman, do you think you will have nothing to worry about in Prince Ling's Mansion?You dare to negotiate terms with yourself!

Jun Yuyan is also ridiculous, not knowing that his so-called Princess Ling is pregnant with the child of a wild man.

And even if he continued to defend Murong Jiu, Murong Jiu only had himself in his heart.

Murong Jiu's abnormal behavior these days is all because she somehow learned about her affair with Man'er, which can also explain why she deliberately went against him.

Jun Haoze stared at the two people leaving and snorted in his heart.

Sooner or later he will get what he wants, and when the time comes, he will not keep either of them!
Jun Yuyan did have something to do. After sending Murong Jiu back to the palace, he went out again.

Murong Jiu was a little tired, lying on the bed, thinking about the things he had done to benefit the noble man in his previous life.

This Hui Gui is very thoughtful. In her previous life, the Emperor felt pity for Yun Concubine when she lost her child, but Yun Concubine always cried, and the Emperor got tired of it as time went by. Although Hui Gui's appearance is not as good as other empresses in the palace, she is capable. It can soothe the emperor's boredom at Yunbi's place, and he heard that she has a strange fragrance, and the emperor likes it very much.

But Murong Jiu had smelled that the strange fragrance on Hui Guiren's body was some kind of mysterious fragrance from the Western Regions, which had the effect of arousing people's lust and could also make people addicted.

Hui Gui's frailty is not an act. The fragrance must be eaten to be effective, so it is harmful to people's health.

However, Hui Guiren has not been favored for several years in the palace. In addition, his father is only a minor official, so he gave it a try after taking Mixiang.

Murong Jiu smelled that fragrance on the emperor today. Although it was very weak, it also showed that the emperor was already a little addicted, otherwise he would not have gone to Hui Guifei's place before coming to Qi Guifei's place.

Don't look at the fact that Chen Meiren, who is beside the queen today, deliberately stirred up the topic and wanted Concubine Qi to deal with Hui Guiren, but in fact, this Hui Guiren was the queen's person.

The drug Huigui took was found by Jun Haoze.

Yun Bin has no scheming ideas and regards Hui Gui as a confidant. She feels that being favored by Hui Gui is also good for her. The two of them can help each other and are not afraid of being harmed by others.

But she and Huigui have been together for a long time, and the fragrance smells too much, and sooner or later they will tire.

In this way, it can not only get rid of the dragon seed in Yunbi's belly, but also allow Hui Guiren to fight Qi Guifei. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Murong Jiu was thinking, should she remind Jun Yuyan?

There is a gap between Jun Yuyan and Concubine Qi, but the bond between mother and son cannot be broken. What's more, if Concubine Qi falls out of favor, it will only be harmful to Jun Yuyan.

The rain outside was getting harder and harder.

Several large merchant ships sailed across the ocean and were about to arrive at Dayan Kingdom.
