Chapter 168 The poor little girl who was married off VS the inhumane prince 53
Outside the delivery room.
The Prince of Jin and Princess of Jin looked at the two children they had brought out and no longer cared about maintaining their royal manners. They just smiled widely at the two little ones in the cradles, and they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
The little ones were obviously twins, but they were full-term.
And unlike other children who were born with wrinkles, this one looks very blessed, white and plump and lovable.
The dragon and the phoenix are auspicious, bringing good luck and fortune. This is a great blessing from heaven.
The entire royal family has never celebrated this event in a hundred years. How could this not make Prince Jin and Princess Jin happy?
The smiles on the couple's faces never stopped.
The happiest person was Emperor Qiming in the palace. Those were his grandchildren. If their identities were not inappropriate, he would have wanted to go to the Prince of Jin's Mansion to see them in person.
He waved his hand and rewards flowed down like water.
The Queen Mother was also very happy and bestowed generous rewards...
East Palace.
After hearing this, Nangong Mo felt very complicated and laughed at himself: "He is indeed a blessed man."
Although he liked her, he never had the intention to force her. Ever since she refused to accept the ginseng he gave her at Wan'an Temple, he had not taken any other action.
Because he saw her reluctance.
"Come here, give this pair of blood jade bracelets to the Princess of Jin, and tell her that I congratulate her."
He took out a pair of blood jade bracelets from his arms, placed them on the table, and said to the eunuch serving beside him.
The eunuch stepped forward and looked at the pair of blood jade bracelets in shock, "Your Highness, this is not you..."
Blood jade is rare and hard to find. The prince got it by chance and later ordered people to make it into this pair of bracelets.
The Crown Princess wanted it several times, but the Crown Prince was reluctant to give it to her. So he actually gave it to Princess Yan?
Nangong Mo looked at the eunuch coldly, "When is it your turn to interfere in my affairs?"
The eunuch turned pale with fear, "I dare not."
Then he lowered his head and dared not speak again.
Nangong Mo retracted his gaze from the eunuch and said in a deep voice, "Go to the warehouse and pick out some other things to send over. Pick out some good supplements. She just gave birth and her body is weak."
"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
The eunuch didn't dare to say much. He responded respectfully, then turned around and left with the things.
Li Luoshu happened to have something to discuss with Nangong Mo. When he walked to the door, he caught a glimpse of the eunuch coming out of the room.
The eunuch was also stunned for a moment. Seeing that it was Li Luoshu, he hurriedly bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Mr. Li."
Li Luoshu is the prince's aide, a person he relies on very much, and he dare not offend him.
"Where are you going, father-in-law?"
Li Luoshu nodded slightly and said with a faint smile.
The eunuch smiled slightly, thinking there was nothing to hide, and said truthfully: "Nothing, the Crown Prince's wife of Prince Jin just gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince learned about it, he ordered me to deliver a gift."
"The Crown Prince's Consort gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl? What a blessing."
Li Luoshu smiled slightly, without any sign of abnormality on his face.
But the feeling inside is extremely complicated and unpleasant.
If Yu Wan had not insisted on marrying him, Yu Yao would have been his wife, and the two of them might have given birth to a pair of lovely boy and girl twins.
Happily ever after.
Instead of being alone and lonely like now.
Although he had several concubines in his house and officials often sent women to him after he became the prince's aide, he still felt empty inside.
It's like something is missing.
Whenever he thought of this woman, Yu Yao, he always felt very sorry in his heart and felt that it shouldn't be like this.
But he couldn't tell what it was like.
He once consulted Master Huicong of Wan'an Temple for a fortune-telling. The master said that he had a happy marriage and would have a very virtuous wife, and they would be in harmony and have a deep affection for each other.
But the fact is just the opposite, it is not the case at all.
But he just thought that Master Huicong had made a mistake and didn't take it to heart.
When the eunuch saw Li Luoshu in a daze, he suddenly remembered that Li Luoshu was originally married to the third lady of the Yongling Marquis's Mansion, that is, Prince Yan's Concubine.
But as fate would have it, the bride got into the wrong sedan, and Li Luoshu's wife turned out to be Yu Wan, the woman who cruelly killed her own mother-in-law.
Compared with the beautiful, gentle and virtuous Princess Yan, they are really as different as heaven and earth.
The eunuch looked at Li Luoshu with sympathy and left quietly.
Li Luoshu stood there for a long time. When he came to his senses, he found that the eunuch had left.
But he didn't care. He concealed the complexity in his eyes and walked into the palace. Prince Jin's Mansion, inside the Crown Prince's Courtyard.
After Yu Yao woke up, she asked someone to bring the child to her side.
The two children are so adorable, fair and tender, and rosy-cheeked that their mother's heart melts at the sight of them.
She touched the two children's hands. The soft and tender touch made her unable to help but pinch them again and again.
Although the two children look the same, they can still be distinguished if you look closely.
My sister has a small red mole on her left ear, but my brother doesn't.
She thought that she could use this to distinguish the two children in the future.
Yu Yao happily interacted with the two children.
Just then, Si Hua came in with chicken soup. The tempting aroma immediately aroused Yu Yao's greed.
Giving birth is very exhausting, and after a nap, she was indeed hungry now.
Si Hua moved a small table and placed it next to the bed, and Yu Yao sat on the bed and drank chicken soup.
Although it’s not very good, there are not so many requirements for confinement after childbirth.
Not being able to wash her hair or take a bath for a month made her a little overwhelmed.
No, it was two months. Because she gave birth to twins, the midwife suggested that she observe a double confinement period.
Fortunately, it is early spring now and the temperature is still relatively low. If it were a hot summer, she would not be able to bear it.
"Master, His Majesty and the Queen Mother have sent many rewards. I have already received the rewards for you and registered them in the warehouse. This is the list of the rewards. Would you like to take a look?"
Si Hua took out a list and handed it to her.
Yu Yao paused while drinking the chicken soup, then took it and took a look.
I found that they were all good things and very precious, including valuable cloth, pearls and agates, various crafted jewelry, and other items for appreciation.
Of course, there are also nourishing items such as ginseng, ganoderma lucidum, and premium bird's nest.
In particular, the reward from Emperor Qiming was much more generous than that from the Empress Dowager.
She smiled, said nothing, and returned the list to Si Hua.
Si Hua took it and put it away, then handed over a list, saying it was a gift from the East Palace.
At the same time, a very exquisite brocade box was handed over.
"Master, the eunuch of the East Palace specifically told me to give this to you. I don't know what's inside, so I don't dare to open it without permission."
Yu Yao's eyes instantly fell on the brocade box.
With a slight lift, the brocade box opened.
When they saw the items inside, both the master and the servant were shocked.
"Master, it is actually an extremely rare blood jade, and it has been made into a pair of bracelets. This..."
Si Hua was not an ignorant person. He was shocked when he saw what was inside.
Blood jade is precious and hard to find, and it is hard to come by chance. Especially a pair of bracelets this big, it is no exaggeration to say that they are priceless.
"Master, this is given to you by the prince. The prince hasn't given up yet..."
Si Hua looked at his master with extremely complicated eyes, and of course envy.
She just felt that her master was really blessed. She was loved by her husband, her parents-in-law were easy to get along with, and she gave birth to a pair of lovely twins, a boy and a girl.
Even the prince fell in love with the master at first sight...
Yu Yao didn't say anything, closed the box, and said calmly: "Find a chance to send it back. This thing is too valuable, I can't accept it."
If the Crown Princess and the women in the Eastern Palace knew about this, they would probably eat her up.
There's no need to go to trouble for a pair of bracelets.
Although Si Hua felt a little sorry, he also understood his master's concerns.
He responded respectfully and took away the brocade box containing the blood jade bracelets.
……
East Palace.
Nangong Mo looked at the blood jade bracelet that was returned to him, his face was colder than ever before, and he felt very sad in his heart.
He didn't expect anything but just wanted to give her the best.
Nangong Mo said nothing. He threw the blood jade bracelet in his hand to the ground and it shattered instantly.
She doesn't want it, and no other woman is qualified to wear it.
