After the Imperial Consort Candidate entered the palace, the family members of the Duke Yongnian Palace also entered. The Lady Cui gave Wang Rong and her grandmother greetings, saying that she would not disturb the Empress and her family's reminiscing, and was about to lead Wang Zhixi to the side to talk.
Wang Rong smiled and agreed.
Her grandmother watched the Lady Cui's back as she hurried to leave, and said to Wang Rong and Wang Zhong, ”The Empress is too lenient towards her. When it's time to let her know the rules, she should know. It is benevolent for the Empress to allow Beauty Wang to meet with her family. She cannot take the Empress's benevolence for granted. ”
”Nothing.” Wang Rong He said, ”The new Imperial Consort Candidate has already entered the palace, so it is natural for mother to be worried for him.”
”Imperial Consort Candidate has already entered the palace. If Empress wants to know more, you can spread it. Now, your family can also help the Empress out, it would be easy to ask about someone.”
”I don't have anything that I want to know. The pages sent up by the Palace Manager say everything clearly.” Wang Ronghe said, ”I don't want to do unnecessary things, more mistakes, less mistakes. There won't be a day when I beg them. ”
”The Empress is so transparent.” ”I've been worrying too much,” my grandmother said.
”Right now, I only hope that the imperial harem can give birth to a child and take his Majesty and I into their hands.” Wang Rong sighed as she spoke. His Majesty had already gotten married two years ago, and his Majesty had long favored her before the wedding.
If anyone doubted His Majesty's fertility and no one came after him, then the vassal lords would have a bad premonition and the dynasty would be in chaos.
”Why has the Empress not given birth to a letter in so long?” Has the imperial physician seen it? ” Grandmother was worried too. What she needed the most now was the time for empress to give birth to her son. As long as the empress gave birth to her son, she wouldn't have to worry about him in the future, her darling granddaughter. Although a child-less queen could also be the empress dowager, such as the current Empress Dowager Chen, she did not have any children of her own. In the end, it was still better to have a little princess.
”Every three days, the imperial doctors would come and get me a peace meridian, and not a single time did they leave it for me. I'm afraid of dying, you know. ” She was in good health and hadn't been in bed many times, but she had never gotten pregnant. Could it be that the little child knew that his mother didn't love his father, so he didn't want to be born in her arms?
”Empress, don't worry. The child will come sooner or later.” ”My grandmother comforted me.” ”When the Empress was young, I saw her life for the Empress once. It was an extremely precious life, with both children and children.”
”At that time, I only thought that it was fortune telling that sounded good. But now, it seems that the Empress isn't the most precious one. Since the former is true, the latter will definitely be true as well.” Grandmother said.
”With Grandmother's blessings.” Wang Rong He said, ”Has there been any good news at home?”
Grandmother shook her head.
”Third Brother is getting married before me, is Third Sister-in-Law still not healthy yet?” Wang Rong asked. ”Just don't, and Grandmother shouldn't rush her. Thinking about me in the palace, Third Sister-in-Law's family must be as worried about her as Grandmother was about me.” Wang Rong smiled and said that in her family, her father would not bother with her son's internal affairs. Even if Lady Cui was not her own daughter, she would still take care of it lazily. As long as Grandmother was not in a hurry, Third Sister's life would be easier.
”I won't hurry her.” ”In other words, I already have a grandson, so I'm not in a hurry to hug him. As long as they don't worry, I'm not in a hurry either.”
”I'm just looking. Your Third Brother doesn't seem to like her daughter-in-law too much.” Grandmother sighed and said, ”He became the person who slept most in the study. Your Third Sister-in-Law doesn't want to arrange a concubine for him, so I don't know what he thinks. ”
”Then when I go to Qianqing Palace and chat with Third Brother, he can tell me anything.” Wang Yunhe said, ”If he had a grudge because his third sister-in-law didn't have a child, I would certainly talk about him.”
”Has Third Sister's marriage been decided?” Wang Rong asked.
Your mother wants her to marry better, but you know that she's only been by my side for two years. Although everything seems fine now, I don't know what will happen in the future.
”It's not that exaggerated.” Wang Rong He said, ”Next time when you enter the palace, bring her in as well. I haven't seen her for a long time, so I asked her to talk to my elder sister. Maybe I know what she's thinking.”
”That would be the best.” Her grandmother said, ”I was not able to help the Empress, but wanted her to solve the problem at home.”
”I was only relieved when I talked to Grandmother.” Wang Rong He said.
When they were about to leave, the Lady Cui shamelessly told Wang Rong to promote her younger sister more. ”In the entire palace, only the Empress and the beauty are blood sisters. The beauty's stomach is the Empress's stomach, so why can't the Empress understand?” Beauty Wang simply did not have any chance to serve him, and even if he was to meet His Majesty alone, he had only seen her a few times. When Lady Cui heard about this situation, how could she still be at ease.
”The beauty is the Empress's sister, so serving the Empress is only natural. In any case, she would be bored and lonely in the palace by herself. The Empress summoned her here to serve her tea, so she can pour out some water.” The Lady Cui said. The reason she could ask for Wang Rong's help was also because of her motherly heart towards Wang Zhixi.
”Mother is being too serious.” Wang Rong didn't directly reply and had them sent out of the palace. Beauty Wang didn't want to leave.
”Even if you were to sit here today, the Emperor wouldn't come.” Wang Rong He said. After she finished speaking, she ignored Wang Zhixi and went back to the bedchamber. Wang Zhixi was uneasy at the left and could only secretly leave.
”Empress, Beauty Wang has left.” Fleur came in to report.
”En!” Wang Rong finally understood. ”Empress, someone from Qianqing Palace told the Empress to prepare to take over. After your Majesty's lunch, Kunning Palace.” Li Gong entered to talk.
Wang Rong pressed her forehead with a headache, ”The person who replied told Your Majesty not to come. He said that I would go to the Qianqing Palace to have lunch with Your Majesty.”
Li Gong agreed. He sent some people to report to the Qianqing Palace and for the chariot to be prepared immediately. Then, he sent the Shang Fang Fortress to deliver the empress's luncheon to the Qianqing Palace.
When Wang Rong met with the Duke Yongnian Palace in her usual attire, she did not have the time to change her clothes. Seeing that she was not lacking in manners, she prepared to go to see the Emperor.
When Wang Rong arrived at Qianqing Palace, she was led directly to the warm pavilion which was Zhu Yijun's office. Just as she went in, she met Zhu Yijun who was writing with a pen.
”Who dares to anger His Majesty?” Wang Rong said with a smile.
