The stunning beauty is spoiled by the fast-wearing bosses

Chapter 19: The Pretty Little Palace Maid and the Heirless King (19)

Ruixi Palace,

Concubine Wu looked out the window angrily, "Yan Xue, you are really capable. You didn't lose the baby. But what can I do? His Majesty won't punish me.

This palace is counting on you to be able to give birth to an heir to the throne smoothly."

Yan Xue was lying on the chaise longue at this moment. Cui Xi came over with a medicine bowl and said, "My queen, it's time to take the medicine."

Yan Xue shook her head, "It's so miserable."

"This servant has prepared candied fruit for you, Madam."

Yan Xue turned her head away and said, "I don't want to drink."

At this time, Xiahou Li walked in, and the palace servants beside him hurriedly saluted. Xiahou Li stopped them, waved his hand, and everyone retreated.

He walked straight into the inner room and took the medicine bowl from Cui Xi.

"Xue'er, be good and take your medicine."

"Don't drink."

Xiahou Li knew that his Xue'er was still angry, so he lowered his voice and said, "Xue'er, be good. Matters in the harem affect the entire body. Believe me, I will avenge you sooner or later."

Yan Xue also knew that too much is as bad as too little. She looked at Xia Houli with red eyes and drank the medicine bowl in one gulp. Xia Houli quickly picked up the candied fruit that Cui Xi handed over and stuffed it into Xue'er's mouth.

"Be good, trust me."

Yan Xue nodded obediently, and Xiahou Li finally let go of the stone in his heart and hugged the girl tightly in his arms.

Yan Xue took the medicine for more than ten days and was almost going crazy.

Doctor Zhang finally spoke to Xiahou Li under the death gaze of the Imperial Concubine.

"Your Majesty, the fetus is currently stable. You can just take the daily diet and no longer need to take the pregnancy-stabilizing medicine."

During this period, Xiahou Li was quite satisfied with Doctor Zhang. He looked at Xue'er's rosy little face and nodded.

Yan Xue immediately asked to leave the palace. She missed home a little. Although that was not her real home, she felt the love of her family in that home.

But now she is no longer a palace maid, so it is not so easy for her to leave the palace.

Xiahou Li looked at the girl's puffy face and agreed, but he wanted to go back with Yan Xue. Yan Xue raised her eyebrows, as she had not expected this.

The two men disguised themselves and drove to No. 142 Qingshui Street.

Last month, Yan Xue had asked Cui Xi to come and inform her family, and also gave them a lot of silver, saying that she was too busy in the palace recently and couldn't come out. Although Yan's mother was worried, she also understood that it was not easy for her daughter to work in the palace.

After what happened last time, Yan Shan was too embarrassed to go back to the village. He had learned some carpentry skills from his father.

At present, I do odd jobs for others in the city and can barely make a living.

Zhang Jinhua took Zhuzi to his home several more times, but because Yan Bin had an exam some time ago and the whole family had not returned home, she was disappointed every time.

Yan Xue's fourth brother Yan Bin, with his talent and diligence, successfully passed the autumn examination and became an enviable juren.

He has recently been devoting himself to preparing for the Minglu Academy examination next month, hoping to stand out in this examination.

Minglu Academy is a well-known academy, and many Jinshi in Lijie come from here.

However, the number of places is limited and the competition is so fierce that the number of applicants is almost overwhelming.

Since her son passed the imperial examination, Yan's mother has become more upright.

Yan's mother has lived in Qingshui Street for more than several months. She is a generous person and gets along very well with the neighbors nearby.

The news that her son had passed the imperial examination spread like wildfire, and everyone respected Yan's mother even more. In addition, when they heard that their son-in-law worked in the palace, people around them looked up to their family even more.

Yan Bin passed the imperial examination and his family was very happy. Yan's mother decided not to return to the village and wanted to stay here to take care of her youngest son. Finally, everyone discussed and decided to stay in the city.

Yan Xue and Xia Houli came to Qingshui Street in a simple carriage. Cui Xi knocked on the door.

I only heard the people inside shouting, "Here we come."

Yan's mother opened the door and saw that it was Cui Xi. She asked happily, "Did Xiao Xue come back with you?"

Cui Xi nodded, and Yan's mother quickly looked back and saw her daughter Xiaoxue standing there prettyly.

She rushed over and hugged her daughter, "Xiaoxue, you're finally back. I've been worried that something happened to you."

Yan Xue patted her mother's back and said, "It's okay, mother. I'm fine."

Mother Yan took her daughter's hand and said, "Come on, let's go back to the house."

At this moment, she suddenly noticed the tall man standing next to Xiaoxue and asked quickly, "Xiaoxue, who is this?"

"Mom, let's go inside and talk."

"Oh well."

Xiahou Li looked at Yan's mother uncomfortably. His presence was so low and his mother-in-law had just seen him.

"What, you got married?"

A roar startled several sparrows on the roof and sent them flying away.

"Mother, don't get excited. Ah Li is a good person."

Mother Yan circled around Xiahou Li for a few times, "She's pretty, but..."

Mother Yan pulled Yan Xue aside and whispered, "Xiaoxue, why did you get married without a matchmaker or an engagement?"

Yan Xue coughed twice uncomfortably and said, "It was the Emperor who granted us this marriage."

"Ah, it was granted by the Emperor? But... that won't do. Without three matchmakers and six betrothals, what does this mean?"

"Mother, A-Li treats me very well, I don't care about that."

Xiahou Li was a martial artist, so even though the mother and daughter were whispering, he could hear it clearly.

He took two steps forward and said, "Mother-in-law, don't worry, I will make up for Xue'er in the future."

"Yes, yes, mother, don't worry, and I already have a baby in my belly."

When Yan's mother heard this, she instantly forgot everything that happened just now and carefully touched Yan Xue's belly, "Is it really possible?"

Yan Xue nodded, "Oh, that's great, you have to take good care of it, come on, come on, sit inside."

Yan Xue asked as she walked, "Where are father and brother?"

"Oh, the Juyuan Restaurant next door needs a few carpenters to repair the tables, chairs and benches. Your father took your eldest brother there early in the morning."

Yan Xue nodded, "What about fourth brother?"

"He is studying in his room."

As soon as the words fell, Yan Bin's voice was heard, "Little sister, you are back."

"Fourth Brother~"

Yan Bin's eyes instantly fixed on the tall man standing next to the little sister.

The man's aura was very strong, which gave him a great sense of oppression. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the little sister in confusion and asked,

"Little sister, what is this?"

"Fourth brother, this is your brother-in-law, he works in the palace, and the emperor granted the marriage to him some time ago."

Yan Bin frowned, but it was not a good time to ask too many questions at this moment. Anyway, this man gave him a very unusual feeling.

Xiahou Li nodded towards Yan Bin. It was absolutely impossible for him to call him "Fourth Brother".
