Emperor's Grace

When Zhu Yunjing woke up again, she had already changed her place, her body was covered with a finely embroidered silk quilt, the carved bedposts were in sight, and a large screen embroidered with flowers and birds was placed not far away, separating the outside room.The layout of the bedroom is very delicate and elegant. Although it is far less luxurious than the East Palace, it is much better than the cold palace with air leaks from all sides.

Zhu Yunjing was in a trance for a moment, raised her hand to press her drowsy head, and groaned unconsciously. The servants guarding outside heard the sound and came in to have a look, then quickly backed out, probably to talk to someone I went to report.

A moment later, the sound of the door opening and closing sounded again, and He Huailing's figure turned in from outside the screen. Zhu Yunjing was looking over, his eyes met, one was at a loss, the other was concerned.

Along with He Huailing came in a doctor carrying a consultation box, He Huailing was very polite to him: "It's troublesome."

The doctor nodded, sat down by the bed, put his fingers on Zhu Yunjing's wrist, Zhu Yunjing turned his head away in embarrassment, and closed his eyes.

Seeing him like this, He Huailing's eyes darkened, and after waiting quietly for a moment, he asked the doctor in a low voice, "How is it?"

"The pulse condition has stabilized. The remaining medicine in his body should be cleared. It won't have much effect on his body. Only the fetus in the womb is a little weak, but it's fine. I'll prescribe a prescription. From now on, he will go to bed on time every day. Drink the medicine, it's not a big problem."

He Huailing glanced at Zhu Yunjing, and asked again: "Is it okay to just take medicine?"

"The main thing is to eat and supplement, but he is weak and can't supplement too much, he has to take it slowly."

He Huailing thanked the people, and the atmosphere in the room after the doctor withdrew became more and more dull. After being relatively silent for a long time, He Huailing opened his mouth first, and took the initiative to talk about what happened in the past few days: "Your Majesty ordered someone to find you I will bury you in a quiet place, keep everything simple, I found a prisoner who is about the same size as you in the death row of the Ministry of Punishment, disguised as you, and replaced you when you were sent out of the palace for burial."

After all, the emperor was still not willing to throw his son's body in the mass grave, and gave Zhu Yunjing a place to rest after his death, which was also the last decent thing, but that was all.

Zhu Yunjing supported her body and sat up, leaning against the head of the bed and looking at He Huailing indifferently: "Chang Rong?"

"Well, a trick that Beiyi people are good at is that they can disguise themselves as another person's appearance, but their appearance is different after death, and no one will check it carefully, so they fooled it."

"Master Hou has a heart." Zhu Yunjing's tone was light, without much gratitude.

He Huailing didn't bother with him either: "There is also Xu Zongbing of the Jingnan Camp, whose home has already been ransacked."

"He has an affair with Xie Chongming, His Majesty has long wanted to find an excuse to take care of him." Zhu Yunjing said numbly, "I wish Yunxun became the prince?"

"Not so fast. After you were deposed, there were indeed voices in the court urging His Majesty to set him up, but His Majesty did not express his position. Moreover, because of your matter, His Majesty fell seriously ill again and has not gotten up yet."

Zhu Yunjing's heart was sour, and she wanted to ask his father what happened, but felt that he was no longer qualified.

"Your Majesty is fine, you can recover after a period of recuperation," He Huailing seemed to have read Zhu Yunjing's mind, and whispered to him, "Don't worry."

"Is it useful for me to worry? No one cares," Zhu Yunjing said, "...If the person appointed by His Majesty is not Zhu Yunxun, then he is not empty?"

"It shouldn't be. He is the most suitable right now, unless His Majesty doesn't want to establish a crown prince now." Although depending on the emperor's intentions, it is very likely that a crown prince will not be established for the time being.

"Ah."

He Huailing hesitated for a while, and then told the things about Wang Jiu that he had found out before. Zhu Yunjing's expression remained the same, as if he was not surprised: "In the past few months, he has been the only one who can serve me closely, so Japan is the one that he took care of me. His Majesty attracted the East Palace, and he deliberately broke the vase, and he deliberately committed suicide in prison, so it is strange that he did it. I have been with him as master and servant. I have treated him badly for so many years. Bo, but he betrayed me for an irrelevant person, it’s just that I’m blind because I don’t know people.”

"...That person can't be said to be an irrelevant person. Wang Jiu's master treated him with great kindness. He suffered a lot when he first entered the palace when he was a child, and he almost couldn't survive. It was his master who saved him, and it was his master. Only by helping him can he enter the East Palace to serve you, he was entrusted by his master on his deathbed, and he wanted to help his master keep his only root, so it is human nature to choose the latter between loyalty and righteousness."

"So can he betray the Lord?!" Zhu Yunjing said indignantly, "Have I ever treated him badly? A few years ago, he was seriously ill and sent to another palace to wait to die. It was because I specially sent someone to deliver medicine to him that he was killed. If I survived, this is how he rewarded me?!"

He Huailing sighed: "Your Highness, you only know how to be kind to others from above, but you never know what the people below really need. Do you know what kind of life the people who have been driven to other palaces live there? Wang Jiu used to I don't know how many people you have offended, and went to other palaces to wait for death, how could those people below let him go, so many people took the opportunity to make things worse and stepped on him. People hated him more and more, and you never sent anyone to inquire again, it was his master who gave him various arrangements so that he could return to the East Palace with his life."

"Did I deliver the wrong medicine to him?! So now you want to say that I deserve to be deposed and sentenced to death?! It's because I did my own crimes, and I deserve to suffer such injustice because of my unpopularity? !"

Zhu Yunjing's eyes were red with anger, and He Huailing slowed down his voice to comfort him: "Don't be angry, I didn't mean to teach you a lesson, you are indeed unpopular, but compared to Zhu Yunxun's omnipotence, you are so frank It's better to be frank."

Zhu Yunjing sneered: "Frank and frank? Why don't you just call me stupid."

He Huailing nodded: "Stupidity has its benefits."

"Yes! I'm just stupid! Otherwise, I wouldn't be reduced to being ridiculed by you!"

"Your Highness, I'm telling the truth. I'm not making fun of you. You're not stupid. It's just that you trust the people around you too much. It's them who failed your trust. It's not your fault. You're fine like this, better than anyone else. "

He Huailing's eyes were eager, with a burning light flashing in his eyes, Zhu Yunjing was at a loss for words for a while, his momentum weakened a little, he turned his gaze away, and stopped talking.

He Huailing changed the subject: "What are your plans in the future?"

"……This is where?"

"In one of my private estates, there are absolutely trustworthy people in the village. It is very safe here, and you can live here with peace of mind."

Zhu Yunjing opened the corner of her mouth, laughed at herself, became a prisoner, and then escaped by feigning death, and then was trapped in a Zhuangzi, which was like house arrest. Perhaps this was retribution for the Xu Shixian who was now him.

"What else can I plan? I'm afraid that if I step out of the gate, I will be discovered immediately? Do I have any other options besides staying here?"

He Huailing narrowed his eyes lightly: "Stay here, I'll take care of you, okay?"

Zhu Yunjing's expression became even colder: "What do you mean by Master Hou?"

He Huailing stepped forward, sat down by the bed, pressed the palm of his hand to Zhu Yunjing's abdomen through the quilt, and looked at Zhu Yunjing with dark eyes: "I will take care of you and our child."

"He's just a villain!"

"He is our child, mine and yours." He Huailing said in a deep voice.

Zhu Yunjing waved He Huailing's hand away vigorously, and her eyes were red again in an instant: "He Huailing, listen to me! What happened that day was not your wish! I was forced to conceive this evil seed! You think I want to do this ?! Don’t worry about it! Even if I am deposed and given to death, I am not the woman you locked in the backyard, you can’t humiliate me like this!”

He Huailing frowned slightly: "Do you think I'm humiliating you?"

Zhu Yunjing stared at him, her chest heaved violently, as if she was angry.He Huailing shook his head: "Whether it's voluntary or not, what happened is what happened. I won't deny it, and I never thought of holding you, let alone humiliating you."

"Of course you speak lightly! It's not you who is pregnant with a child and tortured! You are not the one who is ashamed!"

He Huailing was speechless, he suddenly remembered that Zhu Yunjing who was lying in his arms crying and begging him three days ago, and even let him do whatever he wanted, did he turn his face and deny anyone just after he escaped from birth?It really is faster to change faces than to turn a book.

After a moment of stalemate, He Huailing sighed helplessly: "I overstepped, but Your Highness, you can only stay here right now, your body... Whether you want it or not, you have to rest assured to raise the baby and give birth to the baby safely. nothing will happen."

As for the child after it landed, if Zhu Yunjing didn't want it, he couldn't.

Zhu Yunjing turned her face away: "I don't want to see you, so you don't come to obstruct my eyes from now on."

Although He Huailing saved him, as long as he thought of Zhu Yunxun and the evil in his stomach, Zhu Yunjing couldn't face him calmly.

He Huailing: "...Drink the medicine first."

The servants brought in the boiled medicine, looking at the dark and bitter medicine, Zhu Yunjing couldn't help frowning, she didn't drink this anti-fetal medicine for many days, but she didn't see anything wrong with the little evil in her stomach, It was enough to torment himself.

Seeing Zhu Yunjing swallowing the medicine with a wrinkled face, He Huailing's heart softened a little, and after he finished drinking, he handed over a candy: "Sweet mouth."

Zhu Yunjing retched for a while, but she didn't know if it was because of the bitter medicine or because she hated He Huailing.

After all, he still ate the candy. Although his face was still pale, he finally felt less uncomfortable, but his mood became more and more depressed. He Huailing sighed softly: "Do you want to eat?"

"I can't eat it."

"Then let's eat later. I'll have someone prepare it, and I won't bother you anymore. You can rest for a while. There are people guarding outside. Call someone if you need anything."

Zhu Yunjing's expression was numb, and he stopped talking, He Huailing shook his head slightly, and retreated.

Zhu Yunjing sat blankly, staring blankly at the wooden beams on top of the bed, and after a long time, raised her hand to wipe away the tears falling from the corners of her eyes.
