C35 (1/2)
As soon as the melody of the phoenix palace entered his ears, Zhong Jiuzhen began to spread the happy news.
Good things turn into good, and the monarch's matter is about to be accomplished.
After all, it was the empress's wish that a legitimate son be born, and the empress dowager's wish. Gai Rong'er was especially happy because she had long hoped that the empress would be pregnant, but the empress didn't make a move, and when Gai Rong'er visited the empress's place to see Cheng Rui, he felt sad that the empress was sitting alone, and Rong'er knew how much the empress longed for the arrival of this child. Of course, everyone's happiness was greater than the empress's, and they all smiled more than the empress's.
The Emperor had once told Rong'er that during this period of time, he had been sending out the people he had worshipped so that he could split up the forces and take them down. During this period of time, the Emperor had often consulted with Suo Yu, Ming Zhu, and the others for countermeasures. In fact, Rong'er knew that the Emperor relied on Saul and Ming Zhu for help, so it was only right for him to favor the Empress and the benefactor.
In the blink of an eye, May arrived. Ronger was chatting with the empress in the East Warm Pavilion. The empress was already three months pregnant, so she was slightly balding. The smile on his face and stomach was a sign of his happiness as a mother.
As they chatted, Wang Jingzhi, who was not on duty, came in and reported, ”Reporting to Master, Young Lord Rong, just now there was a message from the Crimson City's side saying that the Imperial Physician has been diagnosed and that Lord Hui is pregnant.”
”Oh? Did you inform the Emperor? ” The Queen stood up.
”In reply to master, they said that someone from the palace had already sent word to the emperor and the empress dowager.” Wang Jingzhi replied.
The Queen looked at Gai Rong'er and said with a smile, ”Master Hui is also pregnant. Let's go greet him. Rong'er will accompany me to take a look.”
Gayon nodded and followed the queen out the door, thinking to himself, I didn't expect that your highness would be pregnant, and that there would be a double joy in the harem.
When they arrived at the side room where the noble Zhong Se resided, Imperial Concubine Zhao was in his room. When she saw that the Queen and Rong'er had arrived, she stood up and bowed to them. Rong'er then bowed to Imperial Concubine Zhao and the noble one. Up, the empress did not let her bow, but walked over and sat beside her, smiling as she said, ”Congratulations little sister, we've also added a dragon son. Right now, us two sisters are in the same boat with a dragon son, truly a pair of good things come together. The empress dowager and the emperor will definitely be very happy.”
”Thank you, Empress, for visiting me.” Noble people were never people who talked too much, they smiled faintly as they thanked the empress. Gai Rong'er watched on. In truth, for so long, Gai Rong'er had no idea what kind of person this rich man was actually thinking. Firstly, he didn't like to talk, and secondly, his expression was always hard for others to understand.
At this time, the Imperial Concubine Zhao next to her spoke up in a bad temper, ”Empress, I haven't seen the Emperor for a long time. Please help me tell the Emperor what's wrong with Dongzhu.
When the empress heard her words, she smiled and comforted her, ”Your Majesty has been busy recently and did not neglect little sister on purpose. Don't think too much into it little sister. ”After the emperor has been busy for a period of time, I will advise the emperor to come see my sister more.”
In fact, she knew in her heart that the Emperor had deliberately snubbed the Imperial Concubine Zhao, because he was bound to help the Emperor outdo the rest, and was not doing anything at all. He was already a little angry, and since the Imperial Concubine Zhao was extremely willful, the Emperor was even more angry, so he did not come to see her. Of course, if even the empress didn't know about this, Rong'er wouldn't tell them.
When the Imperial Concubine Zhao heard the Empress's words, she curled her lips and muttered angrily, ”I have time to accompany the Empress, and time to accompany a noble person, but I don't have time to accompany me.”
The empress pretended not to hear him, and said, ”Imperial Concubine Zhao, you're the lord of this palace, and since Venerable One is living here, it's inconvenient for me to take care of you, so I'll have to trouble you to take care of him.”
Imperial Concubine Zhao replied with a low voice: ”Chenqie will take good care of Venerable One. In this palace, other than Venerable One, there will be no one else to accompany me.”
The empress smiled wryly and said, ”I was the one who miscalculated. Normally, the three people who promised to come to my room to chat if there was nothing else to do would be my little sister and benefactor, Ruoruo. If you're lonely, you can come and chat with me at Peace Palace. ”
Imperial Concubine Zhao curled her lips but did not reply.
