Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the tyrant to take the throne

Chapter 1114: Serving Sister Chen Guifei (113 million reward value added)

The other palaces with royal heirs were equally busy.

Chuxiu Palace.

Concubine Kang carefully tied a sachet embroidered with a peace amulet inside the lapel of the fifth prince.

The fifth prince was sleeping soundly, his face was pale.

Cai Ju whispered, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty. Chu'er and the others will stay with the Fifth Prince and will not slack off even for a moment."

Kangpin's fingers stayed on the sachet for a moment, and finally she just gently stroked her son's warm little face, with an indescribable complexity flashing across the depths of her eyes.

"The Fifth Prince is weak, how can I bear to leave him for so long?"

"It's just that I must fight for your majesty's favor!"

Cai Ju sympathetically said, "This servant understands that all you did was for the Fifth Prince!"

Kangpin stood up, put on the plain moon-white cloak, and said without looking back: "Let's go."

Yikun Palace.

Concubine Wang was trying on a ruby-studded hairpin in front of a bronze mirror, which made her makeup look even more gorgeous.

Xiao Tianzi held a stack of names and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the candidates for taking care of the Third Prince are Nanny Chen and Nanny Li, both of whom are the elderly sent by your mansion. They are the most reliable."

"I have also arranged for a few clever eunuchs to take turns guarding."

Wangpin looked at herself in the mirror and raised her red lips in satisfaction: "Well, tell them to take good care of Jing for me! If he loses even a hair, I will skin them alive when I come back!"

Xiao Tianzi immediately said: "Yes!"

Chengqian Palace.

The main hall was filled with the aroma of milk, mixed with the smell of fine cotton cloth dried in the sun.

The Sixth Prince was only two and a half months old, and was currently being held firmly in his wet nurse's arms.

He was wrapped in a soft, cloud-like goose-yellow cotton swaddling cloth, revealing only his little face, which looked like a pink ball. His eyes were closed, and his long eyelashes cast two rows of small fan-like shadows on his smooth face.

The Sixth Prince was sleeping soundly. His little mouth would move unconsciously occasionally, making very faint humming sounds, like a newborn kitten.

Chengqian Palace is not as impenetrable as Zhongcui Palace, so Concubine Xuan would not feel comfortable leaving the Sixth Prince here.

So, she entrusted the child to Xue Fei during this period of time.

Xue Fei liked children, so she readily agreed.

At this moment, Xuanbin was squatting in front of several open boxes, stroking the neatly stacked baby clothes inside with her fingertips again and again.

She was wearing only a plain satin jacket, her black hair was tied up in a bun with a hairpin in it. She had no makeup on, revealing her smooth forehead, and her eyes were filled with deep worry and reluctance.

Xuanpin picked up a neatly folded cotton bag with fine stitching and spoke very softly, fearing to disturb the Sixth Prince in his swaddling clothes: "These small clothes are freshly washed and carefully warmed in a fumigation basket. They are very soft."

"Jin'er's skin is delicate and can't stand even a little bit of sweat. Remember to change it frequently."

"and this……"

She picked up a pile of fluffy, soft cotton diapers next to her and twisted the soft touch with her fingertips: "This is more important. It must be changed if it gets a little wet. There can be no ambiguity at all!"

As Xuanpin spoke, her eyes swept over the boxes beside her, which were filled with items.

There were small jackets of varying thicknesses, polished silver bells, rattles, and even a small red-lacquered wooden basin for bathing babies.

The dazzling array of things almost burst the not-so-small box.

"Jewel."

Xuanpin's delicate brows were tightly knitted, and she was terrified at the thought of separation: "Did I bring too much?"

"The palace has everything, and Concubine Xue will definitely take good care of everything. But I'm always afraid of missing something..."

Zhu Er looked at her own queen, who seemed to want to pack up the entire Chengqian Palace and send it over. She felt distressed and helpless, and hurriedly comforted her: "My queen, it's not much! It's really not much!"

"How old is the Sixth Prince? Now that he is away from his mother, it would be better if everything around him is familiar to him."

She patted the soft quilt filled with new cotton on the top of the box and said, "Look at this quilt. You sewed it with your own hands after spending many nights here. It has your scent on it. The Sixth Prince feels at ease when he smells it."

"And this little jacket, it's all made of the same material he's used to wearing."

When Concubine Xuan heard the words "divorced mother", her eyes instantly turned red.

She stood up and walked very lightly to the nurse.

As if sensing the mother's breath, the little baby in the cradle twisted his head unconsciously, opened his mouth slightly, and made a clearer humming sound, as if looking for something in his dream.

Xuanbin's heart felt like it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and it felt so bitter that she could hardly breathe.

She carefully took the swaddling clothes from the nurse's arms.

The Sixth Prince frowned his long eyebrows, pursed his lips, and was about to cry.

Xuanpin quickly pressed him against her chest and rocked him gently. Then she lowered her head and pressed her cheek against his incredibly soft little face: "Oh...oh...Jin'er, dear...Mother is here...Don't cry, don't cry..."

Mother’s body temperature and familiar heartbeat are the best comfort.

The Sixth Prince's frown slowly relaxed, his little head rubbed against her neck, and he fell into a peaceful sleep again.

But that small fist unconsciously tightly grasped a strand of Xuanbin's falling hair.

Xuanpin held the Sixth Prince in her arms and paced very slowly in the palace. Each step she took was so light and so slow, as if she was holding the most fragile glass in the world.

Zhu Er looked at the sun and urged, "Your Majesty, it's getting late. We should order someone to send the Sixth Prince to the Yanxi Palace, and then set off!"

Xuanpin lowered her head and looked at the Sixth Prince's peaceful little face as he slept, his long eyelashes, his pink nose tip, and his slightly moving little mouth... She couldn't get enough of every part of it.

"Jin'er, mother will be back soon."

"You must listen to Empress Xuefei's instructions, eat your milk well, sleep well, and don't make trouble. Do you understand?"

After she finished speaking, Concubine Xuan reluctantly handed the Sixth Prince to the wet nurse.

Jin'er has so many reliable people taking care of her. She stays in the heavily guarded palace, and with the steady Concubine Xue in charge, she should feel at ease.

Xuanpin personally held the mother-of-pearl sandalwood five-string pipa and walked out slowly.

Being able to go on the autumn hunt and serve her sister, Concubine Chen, just thinking about it made her heart feel like a warm current was injected into it.

……

Outside the palace walls, the residences of the royal family members and important ministers who accompanied the emperor were also bustling with the hustle and bustle of carriages and horses.

Dingguo Gongfu.

"Miss Wan..."

Liu Shixiu's voice was filled with deep apology and a hint of imperceptible anxiety: "I just received an urgent letter from the mansion. There have been some problems with several of my father's important properties in Jiangnan. It involves a lot of things, and I need to go there in person to sort it out."

He raised his eyes to look at Lin Wan, his eyes full of helplessness and reluctance: "Autumn Hunting, I... am afraid I can't go with you and your father and mother."
