Chapter 263 The Emperor Compromises with Zhen Huan
"But Silang's behavior is against the ancestral rules. Will the Empress be unhappy?" Zhen Huan frowned slightly, her eyes revealing a hint of worry. "Why don't you go accompany the Empress today and come back to accompany me tomorrow?"
Zhen Huan knew in her heart that the Queen was not someone to be trifled with, but she wanted to get to the bottom of Sister Mei's matter and see whether it was really the Queen who did it.
I don’t know if Lingrong is in Jingren Palace at this moment.
If the emperor were to stay overnight at Suiyuxuan today, I would be in the wrong, so I might as well speak my mind in full so that everyone in the palace can hear it clearly.
"It's okay. I've asked Su Peisheng to go to Jingren Palace to inform the Queen. The Queen is virtuous and will surely understand the hardships you've gone through during your pregnancy." The Emperor stroked Zhen Huan's hand.
"But I am pregnant and cannot serve you."
"I just want to be with the person I love, no matter what time it is." After hearing this, Zhen Huan lowered her eyebrows and smiled shyly.
In the atmosphere of Zhen Huan and the emperor, Huanbi came in and bowed.
"Your Majesty, my lady, the Empress sent Miss Jianqiu to deliver something."
"Please invite Jianqiu in." Zhen Huan said, and the emperor also restrained his expression.
"Your servant Jianqiu pays homage to His Majesty and Concubine Wan." Jianqiu walked in with her shoe-horn-shaped head tilted.
"Empress Wan, these are two Hetian jade ruyi, carved with the two immortals of harmony and unity by a famous master, which is a sign of happiness and contentment. The Empress heard that the young lady couldn't sleep well, so she specially sent you a pillow to comfort her."
"What did I say? The Queen is the most virtuous and generous. She knows that you don't sleep well, so she specially sent you a jade ruyi to comfort you."
The emperor looked at the two jade ruyi, smiled with satisfaction, and turned to look at Zhen Huan.
"Your Majesty, the Queen has treated me well, and I don't want to make her sad." As she spoke, Zhen Huan leaned against the Emperor's shoulder again.
In the eyes of Jianqiu who was standing in the palace, Zhen Huan was simply a seductive demon who seduced her master. If you don't want to make the Queen sad, why don't you drive the Emperor away?
"Your Majesty, I am sorry to have delayed your full moon night with the Empress."
Zhen Huan repeatedly expressed her fear, which softened the emperor's heart. When Chun Yuan was around, she always gently advised him to spend more time with his sister Yi Xiu like Huan Huan did.
"Okay, then I will have dinner with the Queen tomorrow." The Emperor reluctantly "compromised" with Zhen Huan.
"I will go back and tell Her Majesty." Jianqiu bowed and turned away. Although there was a smile on her face, she clenched her teeth.
Whenever the emperor and empress had a meal together, a small concubine had to go and persuade them.
Now that she hasn't even been granted the title of concubine, she really treats herself as the queen.
Why does the queen need your charity?
Jianqiu returned to Jingren Palace and informed the Queen that the Emperor would come to Jingren Palace for dinner tomorrow.
By the way, the coquettish look of Zhen Huan was vividly described.
The queen already had a headache, and listening to Jianqiu's indignant outburst, the left half of her head felt like it was about to explode with pain.
But the emperor hasn't said whether he wants breakfast, lunch or dinner, so I have to go to the small kitchen to prepare it later.
You have to prepare the emperor's favorite foods for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and make them yourself. The emperor loves the taste of the food you make the most.
In order to have energy to go to the kitchen to make soup for the emperor later, Yixiu wanted to rest quietly for a while. Ever since Zhang Mi gave her a strong medicine last time, her headaches have become more and more frequent.
"Okay, Jianqiu, you go down first." The queen supported her forehead on the small table and breathed weakly.
Yixiu was a little annoyed. If she had known that the disease would be so serious, she would have been too lenient with her sister. Now she deserved to let her sister taste the pain she was going through.
It’s still too cheap, sister.
"Your Majesty, I feel very sorry for you." Jianqiu saw that the Queen did not look angry at all. She was indignant that her master was too kind, allowing Concubine Hua and Concubine Wan to climb over the heads of the mistresses of the harem.
"You can go down." The queen didn't want to say much. Jianqiu was good in every way except that she couldn't control her mouth and sometimes her emotions would show.
The most important thing in this palace is not to let others know what you are thinking. No matter how many times I have said it, Jianqiu still hasn't calmed down.
Jianqiu would often scold Huichun for being too talkative, and Huichun would follow the example of Jianqiu, the head maid in Jingren Palace.
Forget it, fortunately Jianqiu is loyal.
Jianqiu helped her down and bowed. The Queen had a headache again, so he went to the small kitchen to make a bowl of calming soup for her.
Tonight, Your Majesty is alone in her empty room. Please don't do it like the previous New Year's Eve, staying alone in the empty room until late at night, crying alone until the end of time.
Jianqiu discovered that the left sleeve of the Queen's nightgown was much more worn than the right sleeve. It seemed that during the long nights, the Queen was always rubbing the empty pillow beside her, trying to draw some warmth.
Linglong: If you feel cold, just use a hot water bottle. How can an empty pillow provide warmth?
Jianqiu had just stepped out of the main hall of Jingren Palace when the sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, lightning and thunder. It seemed that the Queen Mother would think of the eldest prince again and would not be able to sleep tonight.
-------------------------------------
"Oh my god, it's so dark, Songzhi, please turn on the light." Hua Fei was eating cherry pancakes and reading a storybook. The light outside the house disappeared in a flash, and Hua Fei realized that the weather outside had changed.
Lanzhi and Guizhi lit the lamp and placed it on the desk, and the room instantly became much brighter.
Then, there was another bright white light in the hall, brighter than the candlelight, and it disappeared in a flash.
Then there was a rumbling sound of thunder in my ears.
Thunder roared throughout the Forbidden City, frightening Songzhi so much that she blurted out, "My queen, don't be afraid."
Then Songzhi shrank closer to Concubine Hua.
Concubine Hua glanced up and down at Songzhi who was pretending to be calm, and stuffed another cherry pancake into her mouth: "I am really not afraid."
Then there was another flash of white light that came in and then disappeared, followed by a rumbling thunder.
"You're not afraid of ghosts, but you are afraid of thunder. In the future, when I find you a husband, I'll have to find a strong man. Otherwise, when it thunders and rains, who will give you a big hug and make you feel at ease?" Concubine Hua forced a wicked smile.
The thunder was indeed terrifyingly loud, and Songzhi couldn't help but grab Hua Fei's shoulders and didn't dare to let go.
"Empress!" It's already this time and the Empress is still making fun of herself.
I have been afraid of thunder since I was a child, and the Goddess of Thunder would laugh at me every time there was thunder.
