After the founding of the People's Republic of China, she became a spirit and was punished, and

Several people looked at the beautiful scenery in the forest and admired the dancers in front of them with focused expressions.

Xiyu noticed that she was a little depressed and soon realized the reason. He raised his hand and patted her knee calmly.

The Third Lady looked up and gave her a somewhat forced smile, motioning her to concentrate on the performance.

Hanhui Building is not big, and Cuihe took her time to clean the yard. It only took her an hour, but she missed dinner.

She touched her hungry stomach, looked around quietly, and slipped out through the unattended side door.

At this time, there should still be a lot of leftover food from the masters in the kitchen of Changchun Garden. I heard this news by chance a few days ago from a young eunuch who passed by.

It was her first time going back, and she was not familiar with the road. In addition, she had to eat secretly, so she was a little nervous. As she was walking, she unexpectedly bumped into someone else.

"what……"

Cui He was startled and almost screamed.

The person reacted quickly, raised his hand to cover her mouth, and blocked her low moan.

It smells so good... The palm of my hand blocking my mouth and nose is slightly cool, and has a hint of sandalwood scent.

Cuihe blinked twice slowly, raised her eyelids and looked at the man who was looking around.

In the summer, the trees are dense, revealing only a little light from the setting sun, outlining a perfect silhouette on the man's tall nose.

The other person's slightly upturned mouth corners revealed a hint of evil, and his delicate facial features outlined a handsome and cunning exquisite face, as seductive as a male demon who had cultivated into a spirit in the mountains.

Still that kind of enchanting fox demon.

Cuihe swallowed unconsciously. The man seemed to have confirmed that there was no one else around and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He fixed his eyes on Cui He, with a hint of warning in his fox eyes, "If I let you go, you are not allowed to scream again."

Cuihe was mesmerized by his beauty and nodded involuntarily.

The man let her go and looked her up and down. Noticing that her eyes were fixed on his face, a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes.

He raised the corners of his lips and raised his eyebrows at the little maid, "Whose maid are you? How dare you stare at the prince so directly? Are you trying to kill yourself?"

Cui He suddenly came to her senses, her eyes showing a bit of panic.

She took a step back, knelt down and introduced herself, "I am Cuihe, a maid from Hanhui Tower, paying my respects to the Ninth Prince. May the Ninth Prince be blessed with good health and happiness."

Her voice trembled slightly, and she knocked her head heavily on the ground, "This servant...it's getting late, and the light is too dim. This servant didn't mean to offend you, I hope Master Jiu will forgive me."

Moss is easy to grow under the forest, so we specially laid anti-slip stones, all of which are angular.

At this moment, her forehead hit the ground, and after a few hits, a little blood seeped out.

"It's from Hanhui Tower..."

A gleam of brilliance flashed in the Ninth Prince's beautiful fox eyes. He pulled out a handkerchief from his sleeve and placed it in his palm, then squatted down and held Cuihe's forehead.

"Don't knock it, but I'm just trying to scare you. Look at your forehead, it's bloody."

His voice was still a little hoarse from his voice change, but the tone was uplifting, rubbing against Cui He's heart, making her unable to help but indulge in it.

The two found a hidden step and sat down.

The Ninth Prince gently wiped the blood from her forehead with a handkerchief, his tone tinged with a bit of heartache, "You are a very honest girl. Fortunately, the wound is not too deep, so it shouldn't leave a scar, otherwise such a beautiful face would be ruined."

The fingers supporting Cuihe's chin moved upwards, and the back of his fingers gently rubbed her delicate face, with pity in his eyes.

Cui He couldn't help but tremble her eyelashes, and called out: "Master Jiu..."

The Ninth Prince let out a low laugh, then retracted his fingers and stuffed the handkerchief into the other's hand. "I forgot to ask you, how did you know I was the Ninth Prince? I don't think we have met before."

Cui He withdrew her gaze from the other person, her cheeks stained by the red clouds in the sky, "I heard that among the princes, only the Ninth Prince has the most exquisite and handsome appearance..."

"Have a vision."

The Ninth Prince raised his hand and gently stroked her hair, then he moved closer and put his hands on the ground to get closer to her.

The scent of sandalwood became much stronger in her nostrils, and Cuihe's heart began to beat wildly, as if it was about to burst through her chest.

She covered her chest tightly to prevent the "bang bang" sound from coming out.

"Ha~"

Seeing that the other person looked like he was about to suffocate, the Ninth Prince smiled and distanced himself from them, but if you looked closely, you would find that his smile did not reach his eyes.

He reached into the other cuff and pulled out a flat, dark blue porcelain bottle.

What a coincidence, he had just received a bottle of medicine for treating injuries from the imperial physician, and it was given to this little palace maid.

The Ninth Prince stuffed the bottle and the handkerchief without any pattern into the other person's hands, but did not withdraw his fingers immediately. Instead, he gently stroked the other person's small hands.

"I heard that the scenery here is beautiful, so I was curious. I came here quietly today. Please don't let others know."

Cui He felt as if her heart was about to explode, and she was afraid that if she stayed any longer she would die of a heart attack.

Her face flushed and she nodded twice, then withdrew her fingers and ran back holding the porcelain bottle and handkerchief in her hands.

The Ninth Prince sat there, his eyes suddenly turned cold, like a poisonous snake hiding in the dark in a damp area, staring at its prey.

There were many pregnant women at the banquet, especially the Seventh Lady who was about to give birth. Naturally, she couldn't overwork herself, so the banquet ended in an hour.

The Crown Princess and Lady Xiyu lived close to each other, so since they were going in the same direction, it was natural for them to walk back together.

Xiyu and the Third Lady sandwiched him on the left and right, walking back slowly, chatting from time to time.

As they chatted, the Crown Princess suddenly seemed to remember something and turned around to ask, "Fourth brother's wife, you are five months pregnant now, right?"

There was indeed a difference of about half a month between the pulse record in the Imperial Medical Bureau and the actual time of her pregnancy, but half a month would not show much difference.

Xiyu didn't understand why she suddenly asked this, so she raised her hand and touched her belly, "Yes, it's almost five months."

"Your five-month-old is much bigger than my four-month-old. It looks like six months."

The Crown Princess' tone was tinged with doubt, and the Third Lady also looked over.

Although she had never been pregnant, there were many concubines in the palace, and her father also had many concubines in his house, so she had naturally seen many pregnant people.

She didn't notice it before, but now she sees that her fourth brother's wife's belly is indeed a bit big.
