Chapter 1234 Don’t dare to do anything to me easily
"Your Majesty, thank you for your grace!"
Concubine Dun's voice was hoarse and trembling as she kowtowed according to etiquette.
However, just as her forehead was about to touch the cold floor tiles, she suddenly reacted!
Li Changde didn’t call her “Princess Wang”, but… “Princess Dun”!
Depriving one of a title is a great humiliation, like being stripped of the last layer of dignity, nakedly showing the emperor's disgust for his concubine!
Ever since she lost this title, she has been tossing and turning in the palace for many days and nights.
She tried her best, used all means, flattered him overtly and covertly, and even begged him humbly, hoping that the emperor would show mercy and return the word "Dun", which symbolized recognition and glory, to her.
But every time she tried, she was met with deeper despair and more bitter humiliation...
This lost title is an indelible thorn in Dunpin's heart and her deepest nightmare in the middle of the night.
But now...
When she cut her wrists to save Ajing, she never thought about being banned, nor did she have any calculations.
At that moment, she was just a desperate mother who wanted to use her last resort to buy her son a glimmer of hope.
She had already thrown the word "Dun" and all those busy thoughts out of her mind, and only hoped that Ajing would get better!
However... just when she had almost forgotten this obsession, thinking that she had long been forgotten by the emperor and that she was just a mother who would do anything for her child...
On New Year's Eve, before the grand ceremony of the 500th anniversary of the founding of the country, His Majesty personally gave her the word "Dun" that she had always dreamed of but could not get... and returned it to her!
She did not plot deliberately, nor did she try to please him in a fawning way, nor did she even beg for a word.
Just because she wanted to save Ajing.
The shock in Dunpin's heart could not calm down for a long time...
She maintained the posture of kneeling, and her skinny shoulders trembled uncontrollably.
It's not fear, nor sadness, but it feels completely absurd.
The thing she had chased with all her heart, when she gave up, unexpectedly fell back on her head in a way she had never imagined...
This...what is this?
Is it a reward for her desperate move?
Or is it the biggest mockery of all her past efforts?
Li Changde looked at Concubine Dun's frail figure, and his heart was filled with emotion.
He signaled the young eunuch to put the heavy reward aside and said gently, "Empress Dunpin, please stand up."
"Your Majesty, mindful of your kindness, has specially ordered this servant to deliver these medicinal supplements. The Court Judge will be here shortly. Please take care of yourself."
Concubine Dun suddenly raised her head, and tears burst out like beads from a broken string without warning, blurring her vision in an instant.
She looked at Li Changde's concerned face.
Look at those rewards that symbolize supreme grace.
Then she looked at the Third Prince, who was staring at her with his eyes wide open. And then there was the hideous, glaring wound on her wrist...
All the emotions are like a flood that broke through the dam.
Concubine Dun choked up and said, "Your Majesty, thank you so much for your grace!"
In the Shuixi Pavilion in the side hall, the scene was quite different.
The charcoal basin was burning brightly, bringing warmth.
Ba Dancing lazily leaned on the soft couch covered with a thick velvet blanket. Her loose crimson nightgown could not hide her bulging belly, which was almost six months pregnant.
Yingxiang quietly came in to add more tea, but her face was filled with unconcealed worry. Her voice was very low: "My lady, in the main hall... His Majesty has given Concubine Dun a lot of gifts!"
"I heard there are red gold pearls, South Sea pearls, century-old mountain ginseng... and more..."
She paused, her voice filled with even deeper panic: "Your Majesty actually personally restored her title of 'Dun'!"
Ba Ying paused slightly as he stroked his belly with his hand, and his nails, painted with bright nail polish, unconsciously scratched across the smooth brocade pajamas.
She raised her enchanting eyes that were naturally filled with exotic charm, and the flickering candlelight was reflected in her eyes, but there was no surprise in her eyes, only a hint of lazy interest.
"Oh?"
Ba agreed, his voice rising slightly at the end, revealing a hint of nonchalant hoarseness: "She was seriously ill before, she really has a tough life!"
She seemed to find it somewhat amusing, her red lips curled up in a mocking arc, her tone full of undisguised contempt: "Cutting a piece of meat in exchange for a title? This deal...tsk tsk, it's really a good deal!"
Yingxiang was so anxious that she almost cried: "My lady, why are you still laughing? I am worried about you!"
"You forgot... you made Concubine Dun so angry... so angry that she vomited blood on the spot!"
"Back then, she had no title and was ill, so we naturally weren't afraid. But now... Your Majesty values her so much that he even returned the name 'Dun' to her!"
"If she holds a grudge and waits for an opportunity to take revenge..."
Yingxiang's voice was full of fear, as if she had already seen the hideous appearance of Concubine Dun.
Ba Da Ying seemed to have heard some funny joke and let out a light laugh with an exotic accent from his throat.
She even leisurely changed into a more comfortable position, one hand still steadily stroking her swollen belly: "Revenge?"
"Does she dare?"
Ba Yun touched his round belly, his eyes showing undisguised pride and fearlessness: "Look carefully, I am carrying a dragon seed in my belly!"
"In a few months, this child will be the noble young master of the palace!"
She raised her chin slightly, her bright and charming face full of confidence: "Don't say that Concubine Dun has only restored her title. Even if she is crowned as a noble concubine one day, would she dare to touch my heir?"
Ba Yingcheng originally disliked the piece of meat in her belly, thinking it was both in the way and a burden. But now, this child is her greatest amulet, more effective than any golden medal of immunity from death.
Ba agreed and his gaze fell back on his round belly. His eyes were complicated, mixed with a hint of disgust, but more of it was cold utilization.
She patted her belly gently, as if she was patting a priceless treasure, and her voice returned to a lazy and confident tone: "Don't worry, my dear Yingxiang."
"As long as this child is here, not to mention a newly re-titled Concubine Dun, even the one in Zhongcui Palace wouldn't dare to do anything to me easily."
"If Concubine Dun was smart, she would have kept her tail between her legs and taken good care of her illness and coaxed her son."
"If she really dares to be blind..."
At this point, Ba Yicheng's red lips curved into an icy arc, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: "That's perfect!"
"I want to see whether her reputation for kindness and compassion is more effective, or whether this 'golden medal of immunity from death' in my belly is more effective!"
Yingxiang looked at her young mistress's fearless look, opened her mouth, but finally swallowed back all her worries.
