Light Dance Jiajing

At this time, there was only a month left before Concubine Kang gave birth. All eyes were suddenly focused on the two concubines who were about to give birth. If the emperor got better, it would be fine. If something happened, the heir to the throne would be the fetuses in the two concubines' wombs. Concubine Kang should have given birth a month earlier than Concubine Yan. In other words, if Concubine Kang gave birth to a prince first, Concubine Yan would have no hope. Unexpectedly, Concubine Yan used some unknown method to give birth early, just in time to give birth on the same day as Concubine Kang. As she wished, Concubine Yan gave birth to a prince before Concubine Kang, but Concubine Kang gave birth to a princess. In this battle, Concubine Kang completely lost.

The one-year-old Meng'er has never seen his father, the emperor. From the palace maids, he learned that his father had suffered from palpitations and physical damage since the fall from the horse. It is said that he has been unable to have sex since then. The harem is now no different from the cold palace. Empress Chen has always been out of favor. Now Concubine Yan is the most popular in the harem for the same reason. She has a son, and the emperor has only this one son. The emperor's hidden illness is said to be extremely difficult to cure. Therefore, the one who will take over the country in the future must be Concubine Yan's son. It's just that the eldest son was born prematurely, with congenital deficiencies and a slightly poorer physique. It is common to see imperial physicians being summoned from time to time to diagnose the eldest son.

However, there is one thing: Mei'er is not favored, and the eldest prince is just as unfavored as her. However, one thing that makes her better than her is that her father gave the eldest prince a name, Zai Ji, while she seems to have been forgotten.

The harem is now more peaceful than ever. The women have no hope and don't have to work hard to win favor. They get along well with each other for a while. Even Concubine Kang and Concubine Yan, who were once enemies to the death, can sit together and chat.

In a blink of an eye, Meng'er and Zaiji were one and a half years old. "Brother," Meng'er saw Zaiji not far away and ran towards him. When she was about to reach him, her feet slipped. With a scream, Meng'er's fat body fell to the ground. It had rained in the past two days and the grass was very muddy. Meng'er climbed up, her face and body covered with mud. Zaiji looked at her embarrassed appearance, first his eyes widened, covering his mouth in surprise, and then he pointed at her and giggled happily. Meng'er cried, she couldn't see Zaiji often, Zaiji It seemed that she liked playing more with the little eunuchs who served him. Those little eunuchs were only four or five years old, but they were quite good at pleasing Zai Ji. Zai Ji seemed to like bullying her more. Meng'er didn't care about all this. She just wanted to know if he was Yan Hao. They were born on the same day, so in her subconscious mind she had already regarded Zai Ji as Yan Hao. She didn't care even if he was her brother. As long as they were still together, it was enough. But now he didn't recognize her at all and was so gloating. Meng'er felt so sad.

"Princess, don't cry," Hongshan glared at Zaiji, quickly took a handkerchief to wipe Mei'er's face, picked her up and carried her back to the bedroom.

Kangpin frowned when she saw Meng'er coming back covered in mud. Before she could say anything, Hongfeng came in hurriedly, "Your Majesty, I just heard that the emperor summoned Eunuch Zhang from the Palace Bureau, and then asked Concubine Wang to sleep with him."

"What did you say?" Concubine Kang stood up suddenly. "Are you talking about the emperor..."

Hong Feng said solemnly, "Yes, Madam, I'm afraid all the palaces know about it now."

Concubine Kang paced anxiously in the room, her steps gradually becoming heavier. She raised her eyes suddenly and saw Hongshan holding the dirty Meng'er. She waved her hand impatiently, "Hurry up and take the princess downstairs to wash." Hongshan did not dare to delay and hurriedly carried Meng'er out.

Mei'er noticed that Kangpin's body was shaking just now. Thinking of Kangpin's frightened look, Mei'er thought, it seems that her mother's usual pure and abstinent nature is just an appearance. Has her emperor father cured his hidden illness? I'm afraid the women in the palaces will start to get busy next.

Meng'er remembered this Concubine Wang. She was not outstanding in appearance among all the concubines in the palace. She held Meng'er when she was less than one year old. Meng'er, a very unfavored princess, had not been held by many people. Apart from the palace maids who usually served her, she remembered a handful of concubines very clearly. Concubine Wang was one of them. She even kissed Meng'er's little face. According to Meng'er's feeling, Concubine Wang was not the kind of woman with deep scheming, at least she didn't look like that. But which woman in the palace was simple?

One and a half year old Meng'er especially liked playing in the imperial garden. In fact, she wanted to look for Zaiji, but she was too small and her steps were not steady. Moreover, the huge palace seemed like a maze to her and she could not tell the directions at all. "Brother, brother," Meng'er waved her little hand. Hongshan pulled her and Madam Zhao followed on the other side. Hongshan squatted down and asked softly, "Princess, do you want to look for His Royal Highness the Prince?" Meng'er nodded vigorously. Hongshan raised her eyes and looked at Madam Zhao. Madam Zhao gave Hongshan a look and came over to coax her, "We can just play with the princess. His Royal Highness the Prince is not here right now." Meng'er Meng'er was anxious. They were just coaxing her as a child. Every time she wanted to find Zai Ji, they stopped her. After all, Concubine Kang and Concubine Yan had a grudge in the past. Meng'er thought that Concubine Kang must not want her to run to Concubine Yan, but she wanted to see Zai Ji so much. Meng'er's tears of grievance were rolling in her eyes. She shook her hands hard, broke free from Nanny Zhao and Hongshan, and ran forward without knowing the direction, "Princess, you can't run around?" This time, not only Nanny Zhao and Hongshan, but also the other two palace maids who followed her surrounded her. Meng'er burst into tears. Hongshan wanted to pick her up, but Meng'er pushed her hard to stop her.

Crying is the most effective way to vent. Meng'er cried for a while, opened her eyes, and was suddenly stunned. Aunt Zhao and several palace maids beside her were kneeling on the ground, and in front of her, a dark figure was standing not far away. The man was looking at Meng'er with a slightly frown. Meng'er also looked at him blankly. He was so thin. Meng'er's first impression of him was that this person was too thin, and his complexion was not very good. He was quite tall, and his facial features were not outstanding, but there was an extremely cold aura around him. I don’t know if this person has the habit of looking at people with half-squinted eyes, just looking down at them like this. He glanced over indifferently, and there was a hint of indifference in his narrow eyes, which made people shudder unnaturally. Seeing his expression that seemed to dislike the whole world, Meng'er thought that this man must be extremely ruthless. Such a cold person would not be ignored no matter where he was. The little eunuch following behind him bent over and guarded him in the middle. Seeing the dragon-shaped dark pattern on his robe, Meng'er's heartbeat began to speed up uncontrollably. This was her father. After more than one year old, Meng'er finally saw her father. She was a little excited. This was her father in this life!

Her father frowned, thinking about something. After a moment, he walked towards her and squatted in front of her, his brows still furrowed. "Are you Mei'er?" Mei'er continued to be dazed, and Zhao Ma quickly replied, "Your Majesty, it is Princess Mei."

The emperor looked at her and asked again, "Are you afraid of me?"

Meng'er hung her head. How could she answer? It was better not to say anything. She was only one and a half years old anyway, so it was normal for her not to understand what was being said.
