Harem Daily Life

Chapter 497 Little Devil

Tao Yanyan got up very late the next day. Seeing that her eyes were a little red and swollen, Mingyue hurriedly took a handkerchief soaked in warm water and applied it to her eyes.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty demoted Lady Lu's position early this morning, and now she has been demoted to a talented lady." Mingyue said.

Tao Yanyan chuckled, "You were so arrogant yesterday, but I didn't expect to be slapped in the face so soon. By the way, His Majesty said last night that he would not take Concubine Li back to the palace. Go and tell Concubine Liang to let her know and let her rest assured. I think we still have some brocade in our warehouse. Pick out two pieces of beautiful colors and send them to her."

Mingyue nodded in agreement and helped her change another warm water towel to continue applying the wound. She changed several towels before leaving.

"Your Majesty has worked hard last night. Do you want to call the imperial physician?" Qingfeng accidentally saw a small red mark on Tao Yanyan's neck and asked with a red face.

Tao Yanyan shook his head: "I'm fine, there's no need to ask Doctor Liu to run back and forth. It's cold outside and it looks like it's going to snow. It's not easy for him to come here."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chang Tai came in and said, "Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor Liu is here. He said he is here on the orders of His Majesty to diagnose your pulse."

Tao Yanyan was stunned. Why was he taking his own pulse?

But since everyone was there, she asked Chang Tai to invite them in.

After a while, Doctor Liu packed up his things and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is in good health. The fetus has grown rapidly recently. You should eat more, especially fish and shrimp, which are very good for your health. I also read in the medical book "A Thousand Gold Prescriptions" that your Majesty gave me that pregnant women should drink more milk, which can replenish the energy lost during pregnancy. However, the production of milk is not high, and some people don't like the taste."

Tao Yanyan thought about it and said with a smile: "I don't like it either. It tastes too fishy. How about this, from now on I will add shrimp to every meal, and then add a boiled egg. Eating these will have the same effect as drinking milk."

After saying that, he looked at the weather outside and said regretfully, "It would be nice if it was sunny every day. I can go out and bask in the sun to supplement calcium."

Doctor Liu was a little surprised, because the book "Qian Jin Fang" also said that pregnant women can get more sun exposure to replenish energy.

He was very curious about how the Empress knew this?

But he remembered that the book was given by the empress, so it was possible that the empress had read the contents of the book. So he did not ask more questions, but talked about another matter.

"Your Majesty, recently Imperial Physician Zhao has been in frequent contact with the Yongxing Palace, and the person in Yongxing Palace has also given Imperial Physician Zhao many rewards. Of course, it is common for the Empress in the palace to be close to the Imperial Physician, and everyone wants to find a helper, but I still find it a bit strange, so I asked around and found out that General Rong will be returning to the capital soon, saying that he is in poor health and needs to be recuperated. That's why I established a good relationship with Imperial Physician Zhao in advance, and I want Imperial Physician Zhao to see him when the time comes."

Tao Yanyan frowned: "It is not difficult for General Rong to invite an imperial physician. He can invite anyone he wants. Why should he make arrangements in advance to build a closer relationship? Unless..."

Unless you want to take this opportunity to bind a royal physician, and this royal physician will help the Rong family in the future.

Doctor Liu nodded: "Yes, I think so too. In addition, Your Majesty is pregnant, so we must be extra careful in everything."

Tao Yanyan understood: "Okay, I will be extra careful."

He Linzhang came over at dinner time and took all the unreviewed memorials to the study, where he continued to review them in the evening.

The three little ones finally lived a lively life with their parents together as a family.

Seeing that the concubine was still not very enthusiastic, He Linzhang couldn't help but sigh inwardly. His concubine was really good in every way, except that she was too vengeful. This time, he was not clear-headed and was in a bad mood, so he ignored the concubine for a few days. As a result, he shot himself in the foot and couldn't coax her no matter what he did.

At night, He Linzhang finished reviewing the memorials and went back to his room to rest, but he did not expect that He Xuan had stayed overnight and had fallen asleep holding the little concubine.

Tao Yanyan was still awake, reading a storybook with great interest. He Linzhang tiptoed forward, glanced at the concubine, then carefully picked up the child and sent him out.

By the time he had packed everything and gotten into bed, Tao Yanyan had already laid down and turned over, still leaving his back to him.

He had no choice but to hug her gently from behind and hold her tightly in his arms.

"Your Majesty, please don't hold me so tightly. I can't move freely." Tao Yanyan moved away from him.

Thinking that the person in his arms might still be angry, He Linzhang said aggrievedly: "Yan Yan still refuses to pay attention to me? I know I'm wrong." As he spoke, he moved forward and closed the door tightly again.

Tao Yanyan narrowed his eyes and wanted to say that I was indeed still angry, but if I said it out loud it would make me seem petty, so he suddenly had an idea and gently turned over to face He Linzhang, looking at him affectionately with his big, expressive eyes.

He Linzhang's breathing stagnated and his heartbeat became irregular.

"I'm afraid of the heat now. Besides, Your Majesty, don't you feel uncomfortable holding me like that?" Her voice was soft and tender. Her little hand was still grabbing He Linzhang's collar, slowly sliding down, her fingers moving here and there, fanning the flames everywhere.

He Linzhang gritted his teeth, grabbed her rebellious hand with his slightly calloused palm, and said in a hoarse voice: "If you don't want to sleep less tonight, don't touch me anymore!"

Tao Yanyan didn't listen, still looking at him with a dazed look in her eyes, and gently moved a little closer, with her pink lips touching his chin not far away, but not kissing him, just sticking to him so close and yet not close: "Your Majesty is in a state now, you can't even touch me?" After saying that, she rubbed his neck with the tip of her nose: "If you don't allow me to touch you, then don't. Why are you so fierce? Then didn't you call me..." Before she finished speaking, she just raised her red lips and bit his neck.

He Linzhang suddenly thought of something and his whole body started to feel hot. He then remembered what the imperial physician had said, that the pregnancy was advanced and they were twins, so he couldn't act rashly. He had no choice but to hold his breath, his muscles stiffened, and he dared not move at all.

"Why is your majesty so hot? Is it because the floor heating in the room is too hot? Do you want to take off your underwear? Can I help you?" Tao Yanyan spoke softly, and her hands had already started working, really trying to undress him.

He Linzhang originally wanted to endure it, after all, it was cold and taking a cold shower was too painful, but he couldn't stand the concubine's teasing! He quickly got up and went to the inner room.

Tao Yanyan looked at his back as he walked away quickly and couldn't help but laugh. After succeeding, he felt really good, so he turned over and fell into a deep sleep.

When He Linzhang came out of the cold shower, he found that his concubine had already fallen asleep with even breathing.

He held his forehead helplessly, remembering the lesson deeply. He must not make the little concubine angry at will in the future, otherwise this "little devil" would have plenty of ways to torment him.

He tiptoed in and lay down, not daring to get close to her again, for fear that the anger that had just been suppressed would rise again.
