Chapter 219: Dragon’s Seed (Half 2)

Empress Xian De stopped strolling and checked out Shen Miao with a smile, “You certainly consider in BenGong. In truth it’s unusual when one speaks about it. From the primary time BenGong noticed you, one felt that you’re very related with BenGong however your persona is far more intense. It’s most probably as a result of your Father is a Normal. BenGong had heard many issues about you and regardless that you have got versatile means and schemes, however the actions are clear and direct which possess a navy air. BenGong can not do it as literary households take note of being oblique. Though BenGong need to do it in a roundabout approach, one has to tie it up softly until the top, thus on the finish you and BenGong will at all times be totally different.”

Shen Miao was silent.

Empress Xian De smiled once more, “There may be actually no want for BenGong to push her into the pond and the Emperor understood this rational, the Lu household additionally understood it however the one one which didn’t perceive was Lu Jing. As for this crime, it doesn’t matter if one carries it. The objective of framing an individual is to deceive everybody below the skies however even you, who simply got here to Lengthy Ye, find out about this lie, to not point out the officers in Lengthy Ye.”

Shen Miao, “May it’s that Your Ladyship wouldn’t clarify?”

“BenGong is simply too lazy to clarify and can’t be bothered to do it. Consort Jing can do no matter she likes. BenGong wouldn’t take it to coronary heart in any respect.” Empress Xian De mentioned faintly.

Shen Miao thought that simply this level, she was fully totally different from Empress Xian De. If it was her, if it was not the crime that she dedicated, she wouldn’t admit to it and irrespective of how a lot she modified, the fierceness in her bones wouldn’t change. Empress Xian De was like huge and deep water that was tolerate and calm and that made others really feel very small in entrance of her.

Simply as they have been talking, unconsciously Wei Yang Palace was in sight and Tao GuGu was ready on the doorways. Upon seeing each of them returning, she shortly walked to Empress Xian De, “Is Your Ladyship alright? Is Her Ladyship Consort Jing alright?” After folks got here when Consort Jing fell into the water, Empress Xian De instructed Tao GuGu to return first and Tao GuGu had been anxious on a regular basis and Empress Xian De return solely now.

Empress Xian De didn’t reply Tao GuGu and as a substitute smiled, “Nothing the matter. BenGong will change one’s garments first. Tao GuGu, deliver WangFei to the corridor to sit down and put together some sizzling tea for her.” Ending, she headed inside to vary her garments.

Tao GuGu introduced Shen Miao to the corridor. The tea was sizzling as Tao GuGu poured some for Shen Miao and couldn’t assist however requested, “WangFei, what is definitely happening with Her Ladyship Consort Jing? Nothing huge occurred proper? Why was one delayed for thus lengthy?” She was an anxious and keen loyal servant.

Shen Miao considered it and mentioned, “There may be nothing the matter with Consort Jing and the kid in her womb can be doing properly.”

Tao GuGu was violently startled and the tea was virtually spilt. When she lastly reacted, she stopped her actions however her face was very pale.

When Shen Miao noticed her as such, she requested, “You all have no idea that Consort Jing is pregnant?”

Tao GuGu smiled forcefully, “WangFei is joking. How would one realize it earlier? If one had recognized…” She didn’t proceed talking.

Shen Miao didn’t overlook the resentful anger that flashed handed on Tao GuGu’s face and her coronary heart was considering of what would occur if she had recognized about it. Would she annihilate the kid within the womb, like all of the females within the Palace would do?

Simply as she was excited about it, Empress Xian De walked over from inside. She had modified her garments however the garments she became have been white skinny robes and there was embroidered bluegrass on high of it. One couldn’t deny that Empress Xian De with out the official Empress outfit would look a wholly totally different individual. Shen Miao regarded rigorously and seen that Empress Xian De’s brows was mild however comfy and he or she certainly embodied the historian model and was a little bit related with Pei Lang however embraced the wind greater than Pei Lang.

She walked over and sat by Shen Miao’s facet earlier than choosing up a cup of tea, “One it actually drained at night time and it’s so a lot hotter to have tea like this.”

Tao GuGu abruptly knelt down, “Your Ladyship, how might you continue to have the temper to drink tea?”

Empress Xian De was startled, “What is that this?” There was a faint strictness in her tone of voice.

Tao GuGu remained unmoved and continued kneeling however mentioned with some grief and indignation, “Her Ladyship Consort Jing is pregnant. She is pregnant and nonetheless needs to border you. You continue to tolerate it. Until when do one have to endure?”

These phrases had exceeded what a servant ought to say to a grasp and thus the environment shortly grew to become chilly. Shen Miao checked out her nostril and he or she didn’t converse whereas she was holding the teacup. Empress Xian De mentioned, “Qiu Shui, you have got adopted BenGong for thus a few years and BenGong see you as household however you have got exceeded one’s boundaries.”

Tao GuGu refused to rise up.

After a second, Empress Xian De sighed, “By no means thoughts. Lu Jing didn’t know that she was pregnant. BenGong is aware of Lu Jing’s temprement properly. If she knew that she was pregnant, she wouldn’t use the kid in her womb to border BenGong. She would solely defend the ‘Dragon’s seed’ properly and never let something occur to the kid.”

“However now it’s a indisputable fact that Consort Jing is pregnant.” Tao GuGu raised her head, “Your Ladyship has to contemplate for oneself!”

Shen Miao might now not keep silent and mentioned, “Tao GuGu’s phrases aren’t mistaken. One must rigorously take into consideration the matter of Consort Jing. That was not all for the Empress. Even with the present state of affairs with the Lu household, Your Ladyship the Empress can not simply be an onlooker.

Empress Xian De checked out her astonished as she didn’t anticipate that Shen Miao would converse at such a juncture however she shortly smiled, “It appeared that Jing Xing had spoken rather a lot to you.”

“Qiu Shui, rise up.” Empress Xian De mentioned to Tao GuGu, “BenGong don’t want to converse the second time.”

An ordering tone was used when saying this sentence thus Tao GuGu hesitated earlier than she lastly stood up.

Empress Xian De regarded in the direction of Shen Miao, “One had allow you to see a joke. Qiu Shui is an individual very near BenGong and would consider BenGong wholeheartedly thus her phrases is likely to be considerably anxious. Nonetheless her coronary heart comes from a very good place.” She then sighed, “Truly BenGong had all of the whereas thought that Lu Zhen is a silly one and BenGong disdain to compete along with her however from now plainly it’s BenGong that made an oversight. Lu Zhen nonetheless has some capabilities as she might keep away from the concoction to keep away from being pregnant and bear the Emperor’s baby.”

Concoction to keep away from being pregnant. Shen Miao’s heard moved. Empress Xian De simply advised her concerning the Palace’s secret like that. In truth the extra she is aware of, the extra harmful it might turn into as those that knew concerning the non-public secret issues would on the finish turn into fertilizers for the Palace’s flowers. Nonetheless one didn’t know why however she felt that when Empress Xian De spoke to her about this stuff, it was solely as a result of she wished to inform her and to not guard towards her due to her data.

“You’re a sensible individual so one thinks that you’ve got seen that the Emperor has no youngsters within the Palace however this was not due to the concubines or the Emperor himself however as a result of all of them drank the concoction to keep away from being pregnant. Lu Jing initially additionally drank it however one didn’t know why however it’s most probably she had used some strategies to be pregnant with the Dragon’s seed. That is the primary within the Palace.” After ending talking, she appeared to have considered one thing else and smiled, “Maybe this isn’t the primary. BenGong had additionally had a toddler earlier than however there was a miscarriage.”

When Tao GuGu heard it, her eyes grew to become considerably purple.

Shen Miao’s fingers that have been holding the tea cup trembled however she didn’t converse.

“The Emperor typically felt that you’re not good as a result of he felt that Jing Xing is the most effective that even when the feminine is a fairy, most probably it might not be even price mentioning to his eyes. At first Jing Xing mentioned that he wished to marry a feminine from Ming Qi, thus the Emperor instructed folks to inquire lots of your issues. After listening to about all of the matter, he mentioned to BenGong that you’ve got a malicious coronary heart.” Empress Xian De abruptly modified matter and checked out Shen Miao, “Nonetheless it now, BenGong feels that you’re very sort.”

Shen Miao was puzzled and solely heard Empress Xian De talking, “You clearly need to ask concerning the miscarriage of BenGong’s baby however concern that it might have an effect on BenGong’s emotions and thus didn’t ask.”

Shen Miao mentioned softly, “This one doesn’t dare solely.”

“You’re the truth is very frank and honest. Jing Xing has certainly discovered an fascinating spouse. BenGong such as you much more.” Empress Xian De smiled earlier than persevering with, “Truly the matter has handed a very long time so BenGong is comfy. At first when BenGong was pregnant, Lu Zhen added a chilly herb into the snacks that the Imperial Kitchens made. Just a bit and BenGong’s baby was gone. At the moment Lu Zhen simply entered the Palace and was on the ‘favoured’ interval. The Lu household was watching and His Majesty might solely punish a little bit. BenGong felt that one was not fated with one’s baby.”

Simply from listening, Shen Miao might already guess the heartbreaking ache in it. In her earlier life in Ming Qi Internal Palace, the concubines would struggle with each other for the Monarch’s love and favour thus the Internal Palace is the battlefield for females and when females grew to become vicious, they’d be extra fearful than males. There have been a variety of consorts’ youngsters who grew to become victims in such a state of affairs. Nonetheless irrespective of how vicious a concubine was, the second they lose a toddler, they’d cry hopelessly. Did this calm and delicate Empress in entrance of her additionally expertise this type of despair? It took a very long time for the scar to be healed however solely she herself would know of the ache from the scar.

Probably the most hateful factor was that she couldn’t even avenge for her baby. Why was this so?

“You should not blame His Majesty and don’t pity BenGong. Though BenGong is certainly pitiful, BenGong have additionally turn into a depraved individual.” Empress Xian De mentioned, “After BenGong miscarriage, one might now not have youngsters so on this lifetime, one wouldn’t be capable to have my very own baby. Thus the Emperor didn’t let all of the females on this Internal Palace carry his youngsters. BenGong doesn’t stay properly so everybody can not stay properly.”

Shen Miao was startled.

As a result of Empress Xian De couldn’t bear youngsters so Emperor Yong Le didn’t let all the feminine within the Palace give start?

Then Emperor Yong Le actually beloved Empress Xian De but when he actually beloved her then why would he permit Empress Xian De endure such an amazing grievance? Even when Empress Xian De didn’t point out, Emperor Yong Le himself would need to kill the assassin so why would he make her his favoured Consort?

Shen Miao felt that the secrets and techniques of Nice Liang’s Imperial household it in no way lower than Ming Qi’s.

When Empress Xian De noticed her startled look, she abruptly smiled, “You actually consider it. How would His Majesty be keen to surrender all of the concubines’ youngsters due to BenGon? Jing Xing might do it due to Jing Xing’s success however the Emperor’s fortune just isn’t good as he’s the Emperor.”

There was a lot extra that means to this sentence thus Shen Miao didn’t know how you can proceed in the interim.

“However you might be proper together with your phrases. One naturally has to plan for the long run. Consort Jing’s baby are available a handy time as this baby would quickly defend her life however the Lu household shouldn’t have such luck.” Empress Xian De smile barely however the smile grew to become sharp…

“The kid can’t be stored.” Within the Imperial Examine, Xie Jing Xing’s gaze was chilly as he spoke to the Emperor in entrance.

“Zhen is aware of that this baby can’t be stored and whether it is attainable, Zhen needs to offer her a bowl of treatment at this second.” Emperor Yong Le spoke indifferently, as if the person who would endure from the treatment was not his baby and another person.

“Then why do you not do it?” Xie Jing Xing requested sharply.

“Qing Zhen doesn’t permit it.” Emperor Yong Le mentioned.

Qing Zhen was Empress Xian De’s single title and this title was not spoken from Emperor Yong Le’s lips for a very long time.

After half a second, Xie Jing Xing laughed in ridicule, “Imperial Sao’s coronary heart has at all times been tender and maybe due to pitying the demise of 1’s baby.”

“Xie Yuan!” These phrases appeared to have touched on Emperor Yong Le’s ache that he glared on the different social gathering.

But it surely solely introduced an informal smile from Xie Jing Xing, “So what might be achieved now? I don’t care about Lu Jing and I don’t need to pay any consideration to that baby. The Lu household got here and left, with absolutely the certainty that the kid in Lu Jing’s womb is a talisman. How might one give them such a giant present?”

To an Emperor with none descendent, to abruptly have one, it might be a life-saving straw. Irrespective of how unwilling Emperor Yong Le was, the place of the Monarch would land onto the kid in Consort Jing’s womb thus after the Lu household got here to check out Consort Jing’s being pregnant, they didn’t make a fuss or have any disagreement and left shortly. Maybe of their eyes, the Empress place of Empress Xian De would quickly be gone and didn’t even have time to take pity. The ability was their kindness.

However might one actually sleep in consolation with out worries?

Since historic occasions, there was a saying that it was onerous to foresee future occasions.

“The Lu household has at all times forgotten a couple of matter. You and I bear the surname of Xie and we now have the Xie household’s blood in our physique.” Emperor Yong Le mentioned indifferently, “The folks of Xie household are all ruthless and unfeeling.”
