Selling wife for fame? Kick out the scumbag and marry the new emperor to enjoy the harem of favors

Chapter 83 It's really not going well

"I know you're thinking about that child, and I'm heartbroken too. But since it's already happened, we should always look forward to it. If we can't let it go, it will only hurt our mind and body."

Zhao Xingjin still comforted Concubine Yi.

In fact, he said this almost every time he met Concubine Yi.

Now I don’t want to mention it.

As a mother, it is natural for Concubine Yi to be unable to let go of her child. The loss of a child will be a permanent scar in a mother's heart. Although Zhao Xingjin is also heartbroken, he also understands that his pain is definitely far less than Concubine Yi's.

But it is impossible for people to empathize with each other. The pain will fade away with time. Even if Yipin, the person involved, still cares about it, others will forget it.

No one can always tolerate and endure Yipin's negative emotions, especially since Zhao Xingjin's identity has changed and he is the emperor above everyone else.

Mentioning it once or twice would make people feel distressed, but she would mention it every time she met Zhao Xingjin. Even if Yipin didn't mean that, Zhao Xingjin would feel in his heart that she was using the aborted child to gain sympathy and love.

There was even a feeling that Concubine Yi was blaming him.

After all, Concubine Yi had a miscarriage because she was frightened when she encountered an assassin while she was with him.

But it was indeed an accident, and Zhao Xingjin was helpless.

It is hard to say who is right or wrong in the whole incident because of their different standpoints, but at this moment, Zhao Xingjin really does not want to hear Concubine Yi mention her miscarriage again.

But Concubine Yi did not notice Zhao Xingjin's emotions. She was still immersed in her own sadness and distress, hoping to get everyone's sympathy and care.

"That was the flesh that fell from my body. My baby was more than five months old and was already moving. How could I forget it!" Concubine Yi burst into tears.

Zhao Xingjin put down his bowl and chopsticks and took a deep breath. "You are still young. Once you take care of yourself, you will have another child."

"But it can't be him." Concubine Yi lowered her eyes, her grief evident in her words.

This is what makes Zhao Xingjin most helpless. Concubine Yi is always unwilling to get over the pain. No matter how you persuade her, if you ignore her, she will feel wronged and complain, hoping to get your comfort.

This is how patience is slowly worn away.

As a superior, Zhao Xingjin really doesn't have that much patience for these things.

"Okay, you are in a bad mood today. Wait until you calm down and I will come to see you again. I have something to do in Chengming Palace, so I'm leaving." Zhao Xingjin stood up.

Concubine Yi was stunned. She looked up at Zhao Xingjin with tearful eyes, "Your Majesty."

"Take good care of Concubine Yi." Zhao Xingjin didn't look at her, but instead instructed Qiuyan beside him, "Go out for a walk more often to change your mood."

After saying this, he turned and left.

Only then did Yipin react and quickly chased after him, but she only saw that Zhao Xingjin had already boarded the imperial sedan chair and was already far away.

"Your Majesty, you shouldn't bring up that old incident every time you see the Emperor. It has already happened, and the Emperor is heartbroken. If you keep dwelling on it, it will only make everyone feel more uncomfortable." Qiu Yan advised.

However, Concubine Yi seemed not to hear it. Tears in her eyes rolled down her cheeks, and her eyes turned from sorrow to sinister.

"That bitch Xie must have said something to the Emperor, otherwise why would the Emperor leave like this? The Emperor always used to comfort me carefully!"

"That bitch Xie, she even schemed against my deceased child. Can't she get even a little mercy and love from her father, the emperor?"

When Qiuyan heard this, she knew that Concubine Yi was having wild thoughts again, and hurried to persuade her, but Concubine Yi didn't give her a chance at all.

He turned around and went into the house and overturned the table.

The table was full of delicious food scattered all over the floor, the bowls and plates were broken, and the scene was a mess.

Concubine Yi knelt down as if exhausted, her eyes closed, her shoulders twitching, and she cried softly and suppressedly.

She had mental problems, such as post-traumatic stress disorder or depression, but unfortunately no one in the world knew about it.

Perhaps if Concubine Yi gets pregnant with another child, her condition will really improve, but now she looks sick and gloomy, and Zhao Xingjin will not visit her, which is equivalent to being in a dead end.

She was a pitiful person as well. But Xie Jiu, who was hated by her for no reason, was also quite wronged.

At this moment, he suddenly sneezed in Anqing Hall.

"Did Concubine Jieyu catch a cold last night?" Chunrong asked with concern.

Xie Jiu shook his head and caught a glimpse of Qingfang walking quickly into the house.

"What's wrong? You're in a hurry."

"I don't know why the emperor left without having lunch. I heard Concubine Yi overturned the table and the door to the main hall was closed. The atmosphere was not good." Qingfang frowned.

Xie Jiu's eyes seemed to be filled with thought, but after thinking about it, he really couldn't guess where the problem lay, so he just waved his hand.

"Don't get involved. The atmosphere over there is tense. Let's be careful in our yard. Don't let others take advantage of us. Just keep an eye on it and see what's going on."

Qingfang nodded and went downstairs to instruct the other people in Anqing Hall.

In the afternoon, Xie Jiu went to Changle Palace to teach Princess Wenxi. Today's content was less, so the class ended early. Princess Wenxi carefully asked Xie Jiu to accompany her to visit the Imperial Garden.

The child lost her mother and used to be very dependent on Qin Lan who took care of her. Now she has gradually become fond of and close to teacher Xie Jiu.

In particular, Qin Lan often instilled in Princess Wenxi that Xie Jiu was now Zhao Xingjin's concubine and could be considered her stepmother. This invisibly made Princess Wenxi begin to imagine Xie Jiu as her own mother.

Xie Jiu could feel what the little girl was thinking, and he was reluctant to disappoint this well-behaved child, so he naturally agreed.

I didn't expect that I was in trouble today. I ran into a troublesome thing when I went to the Imperial Garden.

"I don't like you. You make my mother unhappy. Why don't you move out? Why do you have to live in my Yanqing Palace?"

From afar, the voice of a young boy came from behind the flowers.

Xie Jiu and Princess Wenxi looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was the Fourth Prince who was cursing someone angrily, and standing opposite him, looking a little at a loss, was the pregnant Sun Baolin.

"Your Highness, I live in Concubine Zhuang's palace. It was arranged by the Empress according to the rules. I can't just move out whenever I want."

Sun Baolin spoke in a soft and weak voice, trying to reason with the ignorant little bully.

But it obviously didn't work. Before she could finish her words, she was pushed back by the Fourth Prince.

"Hmph, you're just relying on the baby in your belly to act so arrogantly. If you want to move out, just ask Father and the Empress, and they'll definitely let you go!"

These words didn't sound like something a five-year-old child would say. It seemed that Concubine Zhuang didn't avoid the child when she was angry, and the Fourth Prince heard it and kept it in mind.

The Fourth Prince's rudeness made Wanqiu, the senior palace maid beside Sun Baolin, unable to bear it.

He said, "Your Highness, please be careful with your words. Baolin is pregnant with your brother. Please don't scare Baolin."

"What brother? I don't have a brother. My mother said that the baby in her belly must be a dead girl!" The fourth prince raised his head.

"you!"

Wanqiu wanted to say something, but Sun Baolin raised his hand to stop her.

"Forget it, why bother with the child? Let's go. I see some chrysanthemums blooming over there. Let's go take a look."

After saying this, he turned and left.

Xie Jiu and Princess Wenxi, who were in the distance, saw that the farce seemed to be over and were about to leave. Before they turned around, they suddenly heard a scream from the other side.

Turning around, she saw the Fourth Prince running straight towards Sun Baolin like a cannonball, apparently trying to push Sun Baolin aside and get ahead of her. However, Sun Baolin was not prepared for this sudden move, and was immediately squeezed and stumbled, falling into the flowers beside him.

"Baolin!" Wanqiu's face turned pale with fear. "Someone, come, call the imperial physician quickly! Baolin has fallen down!"
