The little dark guard who travels between two lives

Xin He looked at Su Peiyun's departing back, but fell into deep thought. This Lantern Festival, she still failed to make arrangements in advance, and almost caused trouble for herself and Yu Shen. She was still too reckless.

After the Lantern Festival, Zhang Gan's death probably frightened Su Peiyun. She has been honest recently, but he still has no evidence to incriminate Su Peiyun. And this woman is really good at hiding. Daddy has checked the entire Qin Mansion this time and has cleared out several people with unclear backgrounds, but he still hasn't found any evidence against Su Peiyun.

Xin He was a little distressed. How could she find this bad woman? In her previous life, she was murdered during the Lantern Festival and her mother was unable to keep the child. Now that she was safe and sound and her mother had a child again, that woman would definitely have some evil ideas.

Xinhe also thought of another problem. This time she was lucky enough to return safely from the Lantern Festival, and she had always been the Miss Qin. Then what about the child of Madam Xinhe in her previous life who was stolen by Su Peiyun and then returned to the Qin Mansion under her own name? How should Su Peiyun deal with that child?

Qin Mingxuan turned around and saw Xinhe staring at Su Peiyun's back in a daze. He patted the little girl on the head and said, "Nannan, mother is talking to you!"

Xin He finally came back to her senses and smiled broadly at her mother: "Mom, I was wondering when my brother would be able to come out. Nannan is so anxious!"

Ji Wanran scratched Xinhe's nose and said to her with a smile, "Don't always call her brother brother. If she turns out to be a younger sister, she will have a problem with you as her elder sister."

Xin He was stubborn and believed that her mother was pregnant with a little brother. She turned her head and asked Yu Shen: "Brother Shen, do you think it's a little brother?"

In the past, Yu Shen always sneered at Xin He's unreasonable questions and rolled his eyes. But since the Lantern Festival, Xin He found that Brother Shen had become a different person, obeying her in everything and thinking that everything she said was right.

Xin He really enjoyed this feeling. Compared with the cold and icy Yu Shoufu in her previous life, this Brother Shen was much cuter. Now Xin He would ask Yu Shen before saying anything, because she knew that she would definitely get Yu Shen's support.

Sure enough, Yu Shen looked at the little girl's expectant eyes, and then looked at the smiling faces of his master and his wife, and finally gave in and supported the little girl's conclusion: "Yes, Shen'er also thinks that his wife will give birth to a little brother."

Xinhe smiled from ear to ear and shook her big head proudly: "See, I told you, it must be a younger brother." Qin Mingxuan and Ji Wanran looked at Yu Shen and Xinhe, and they smiled at each other. They also thought that Yu Shen was quite cute.

Ji Wanran tapped Xin He's forehead and said, "Okay, you didn't hear what mother told you just now. The Queen sent a message from the palace, wanting the three of us to go to the palace. The Queen has been worried about my health. Now that mother's pregnancy is stable, it's time to go to the palace to pay respects to the Queen and let her rest assured."

Hearing that they were going to the palace to pay their respects to the Empress, Xin He became happy and took Yu Shen to find Liu Niang and Qing Qiu to dress herself and Brother Shen up nicely so that they could go see the Empress looking beautiful.

This time when entering the palace, Xinhe no longer jumped and ran in front, but followed closely beside her mother, and reached out to support her mother from time to time. Yu Shen also followed in front of the master's wife and looked closely at the road, fearing that something on the road would trip her.

Therefore, when Ji Wanran and the other two walked into the main hall of Kunning Palace under the leadership of Zi Yuan, the Queen Mother saw Ji Wanran walking gracefully in a light blue long dress, and the two children with delicate eyebrows and eyes beside her looked like a pair of golden boy and jade girl, lovable. The two children's eyes were full of Ji Wanran, as if she were a treasure.

The queen couldn't help laughing when she saw the three of them. The concubine sitting next to her also praised the queen: "Queen, look at these two children, they are so cute!"

Xin He followed her mother and bowed to the Queen. The Queen quickly signaled Zi Yuan to help Ji Wan Ran up and let her sit down: "Stop being so polite. I heard from the Emperor that Lord Qin and his wife have a big happy event. I'm happy for you too and have always wanted to see you. When I saw your face today, I felt relieved."

Xin He couldn't hold back any longer, and after paying her respects, she threw herself into the Queen's arms: "My Queen, Xin'er has missed you for a long time, but Xin'er is going to be a sister, and Xin'er has to take care of my mother and brother first before I can come to pay my respects to you. Please don't forget me, I've always been thinking about you."

The Queen smiled and held Xin He's plump body in her arms and said, "Oh, our Xin He is so smart. She already knows that mother is pregnant with a brother. She is more capable than the imperial doctors in the palace!"

Xinhe raised her big head proudly, pointed at Yu Shen and said, "Of course, Brother Shen also said he is my younger brother." Yu Shen wanted to cover his face. Why should his words be regarded as ironclad evidence, and the little girl had to use it all the time to prove that she was right.

The Queen Mother looked at Yu Shen. She had heard about the situation in the Yu Mansion and felt sorry for the child. The Queen Mother waved her hand and asked Yu Shen to come forward. She comforted Yu Shen, "I heard from the Emperor that your father's treatment was quite good. The imperial physician said that he is no longer in danger of death. This means that the master has woken up. Don't worry."

Yu Shen bowed his hands and thanked the Empress: "Master has already told Shen'er that Daddy's condition has been getting better. It is thanks to the Emperor and Empress that we are so lucky."

Xin He leaned over to the Queen's ear and complained, "My Queen, Xin'er really doesn't like that old lady Yu. She is the elder and Xin'er should respect her. But she is not nice to Brother Shen, very not nice. She doesn't even let Brother Shen enter the house. She is so hateful. Xin'er hates her!"

She was afraid that Yu Shen would hear what she said and bring up his sadness again, so she leaned closer to the Queen's ear and said, "Queen, Xin'er told her that the Emperor and Queen are not allowed to mention the saying of the disaster star again, otherwise the Emperor will punish her. Queen, do you think Xin'er did something wrong? Mother said that Xin'er was just a fox relying on the power of the tiger. But Xin'er is willing to be a little fox with the backing of a tiger. Just thinking about it makes her feel very proud!"

The Queen couldn't help laughing when she heard this little girl aspire to be a little fox with a backstage. She looked at Yu Shen beside her and sighed again.

The Concubine Shu, who was sitting next to her, heard what the little girl said and cursed her out loud: "That old woman. What a disaster star. She just vented her dissatisfaction with Zhen'er on the child. She used to torture Zhen'er in every way. Wasn't it because Master Yu was protecting Zhen'er and didn't want to marry her niece as a concubine? Zhen'er is dead, but she still treats Zhen'er's child so harshly. She is so vicious."

Xinhe had never expected that the always dignified and quiet Concubine Shu could actually say such abusive words. She held up her chubby face and looked at Concubine Shu in admiration. Why did she feel so happy listening to such abusive words?

The Empress looked at Concubine Shu with a reproachful look and laughed at her: "Be careful when you talk in front of children. You!" She turned around and saw that the little girl in her arms was secretly giving Concubine Shu a thumbs up when she was not paying attention. The Empress held back her laughter and looked at Concubine Shu and Ji Wanran: "This old lady of the Yu Mansion is really unkind. Zhen'er suffered a lot from her back then, but Zhen'er was a strong-willed person and was cherished by Master Yu. She didn't suffer much when she confronted the old lady. It's a pity that Zhen'er died early, and the old lady took her resentment out on the child. She is really unvirtuous."

Ji Wanran hugged Yu Shen in her arms distressed and sighed, "My poor Shen'er, he is really wronged." Yu Shen comforted Ji Wanran, "Master's wife, with your love and the madams' love, Shen'er is not wronged."

Xin He was still trying to please Old Lady Yu. She pouted and said, "Your Majesty, you have to ask the Emperor to punish that old lady. I've told her that the late Queen also lost her life for her child, but she still doesn't stop and keeps saying that she's a disaster. If the Crown Prince hears this, he'll be so sad! Xin Er feels so sorry for the Crown Prince and the late Queen."

The more the little girl spoke, the sadder she became. Tears welled up in her eyes. She hugged the Queen's neck and said, "My Queen, tell me, is there any mother in this world who is willing to leave her child behind and let others point fingers at her and hurt her child? Xin'er knows best how precious the relationship between a mother and her child is. Every child should be cherished. How could someone be so cruel as to hurt a young child?"

Xinhe thought of her experiences in her previous life, a life of loneliness. Although Yu Shen in this life had a father and a grandmother, he did not enjoy the love of his parents just like herself in her previous life. She pursed her lips as she spoke to the queen, as if she had experienced great pain.

The Empress looked at the sad look of the little girl and felt a pain in her heart. She had no children of her own and she carefully raised the prince for her dead sister, so she had more responsibilities. Now she held the little girl's soft body, listened to her talk about her sad story, felt the little girl's innocence and kindness and her trust in her, and held the little girl tighter in her arms: "Xin'er, don't be sad. You don't need to trouble the emperor with this matter. I will send someone to the Yu Mansion to reprimand Madam Yu and ask her to be careful in her words and deeds in the future."

Xin He opened her eyes wide in surprise: "Really? Queen, will she not dare to treat Brother Shen harshly in the future?" Queen Concubine Shu looked at the fat girl who had successfully complained and said with a smile: "Little girl, don't worry. The old lady of the Yu family was scolded by the Queen, and she has lost face in the circle of noble ladies in the capital. I guess she has no face to show off in public anymore."

The little girl was happy and looked at Yu Shen with a smile: "Brother Shen, you heard it, the Queen helped you vent your anger." She turned to the Queen and expressed her love: "Queen, you are the best, Xin'er loves you the most!"

At this time, the prince came in with several younger brothers. They had just come from school to pay respects to the queen, and by the way, they came to see Xinhe and Yu Shen. After the Lantern Festival, Xinhe and Yu Shen had rested for a long time and had not seen the prince for a long time.

After the Fourth Prince paid his respects to the Queen, he could not wait to run to Xin He, and expressed his great concern: "Sister Xin'er, how are you recuperating? Can you come to the palace to continue your studies? We all miss you so much!"

The Third Prince came over and patted the Fourth Prince on the back of his head: "Hey, you are the one who missed this little girl, we don't!" Concubine Shu also patted the Third Prince on the back of his head without any hesitation: "Stinky boy, how can you talk like that? Don't bully your sister Xin'er and your fourth brother."

Xinhe looked at the Third Prince without any hesitation and giggled: "Third Prince, Xiner misses you and Crown Prince brother very much. I am so sad that you don't miss Xiner." As she spoke, she pretended to hold her heart to show that she was very sad, but the gloating smile on her face exposed the little girl's true thoughts.

The third prince held his head and glared at the little girl, then looked at his mother, then closed his mouth in dissatisfaction, not daring to speak again. The crown prince looked at him with amusement: "I told you to talk less, talk less, but you didn't listen."

The prince stepped forward and patted Yu Shen on the shoulder, then looked at Xin He: "Xin'er and Shen'er have both recovered. Mother and Concubine Shu miss you very much." Xin He was mad at the Third Prince, and quickly hugged the prince's golden thigh: "Brother Prince, Xin'er and Brother Shen have both recovered. Brother Prince, thank you for your concern, Xin'er misses you very much. Brother Prince is the best brother."

The prince smiled and said nothing. He patted Xin He's big head, took Xin He from the Queen's arms, sat beside the Queen and whispered, "Mother, I just heard that you are going to send someone to scold that old lady Yu. Your father thinks highly of you, but you embarrassed that old lady. Do you want to discuss this with your father? I'm afraid that the emperor will blame you."

The Queen smiled, "Rui'er, you are worried about me, and I know what you are thinking. It's just that the Emperor values ​​Lord Yu and Yu Shen, and needs the Yu family father and son, not this mean old lady. This old lady has always been arrogant and domineering in the capital, relying on her son's favor from the Emperor. She even accepts bribes from the noble ladies in the capital, claiming that she can arrange a good position for them to get a husband. The Emperor has long disliked her, but he tolerates her for the sake of Lord Yu's face."

The prince suddenly realized: "I understand." The little girl was shocked to hear such news. It turned out that the old lady was so bold to accept bribes in the name of her son. Was she afraid that her son would not be punished by the emperor?

Having brought such harm to her own son and grandson, this old woman has now risen to the level of an old witch in Xinhe's heart.

She sat happily in the prince's arms, crossed her feet proudly, and continued to sing praises to the queen: "The queen is wise! She should have scolded her, she should have!"

The queen smiled and accepted the girl's praise, then looked at Yu Shen and said, "From now on, just go back to the Yu Mansion to visit your father who is taking care of you. If she dares to stop you again, just say that this is my order. If she is dissatisfied, let her come to me."

The little girl became even more arrogant: "She wouldn't dare to come to see the Queen even if she had two guts." Then she habitually asked Yu Shen: "Is that right, Brother Shen!"

Yu Shen had a headache. Xin He could blame the old lady, but he was a grandson after all, so he couldn't blame the old lady. He couldn't agree with the little girl this time. He looked at the little girl helplessly and kept his mouth shut.

Since Yu Shen did not respond to Xin He's words, naturally someone else rushed to respond to Xin He: "Xin Er sister is absolutely right. Hello, Xin Er sister, you are a chivalrous and brave heroine!"
