Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 557 Strange

It was a rare time to go out of the palace. Emperor Jing and Su Qingyan left after having lunch in the Su residence. At this time, the two of them had already changed into the attire they had when they left the palace.

Walking on the street, Su Qingyan was wearing a veil, Emperor Jing stretched out his hand to hold her, and the two of them interlocked their fingers, looking casually on the street.

Behind the two, Kang Ninghai, Zitan and the others followed. They did not dare to get too close, nor did they dare to fall too far. In order to prevent being lost, they fixed their eyes on Emperor Jing and Su Qingyan. .

Perhaps it was because of the Qiqiao Festival, there were many pedestrians on the street, Su Qingyan was curious about everything, and often dragged Emperor Jing here and there, which made Kang Ninghai, Zitan and others suffer.

"Ah Qing, you are pregnant, shall we walk slowly?" Emperor Jing looked at Su Qingyan and said with a smile as if he knew what Kang Ninghai and the others were thinking.

Hearing what Emperor Jing said, Su Qingyan stretched out her hand, touched her belly, and nodded with a smile.

The two slowed down and continued to stroll on the street. Occasionally, when they came across something Su Qingyan liked, Emperor Jing would buy it for her without hesitation, and asked Kang Ninghai and others to hold it for her.

After some wandering around, Kang Ninghai, Zitan and the others had a lot of things in their hands. Su Qingyan tossed and tossed for a long time, her face unavoidably showing tiredness.

Although she still wanted to take another look, but thinking of her current situation, Su Qingyan told Emperor Jing, and the two turned around and walked towards the place where the carriage was parked.

Seeing that the master was finally going back to the palace, Zitan and Zixuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. They reckoned that if they continued to stroll around, when they returned to the palace, Nanny Jin would definitely talk about them.

Back in the carriage, Su Qingyan leaned against Emperor Jing's arms, and yawned sleepily. The carriage was spacious and the bedding was thick, so after a while, Su Qingyan fell into a deep sleep.

Looking at the sleeping face of the man in his arms, Emperor Jing's lips unconsciously evoked a smile. He stretched out his hand to help Su Qingyan tidy up the hair on her temples, and then adjusted her posture so that Su Qing could Yan Ke is more comfortable.

The carriage returned to the palace safely all the way, and when it reached the gate of Longgan Palace, Emperor Jing carried Su Qingyan off the carriage.

Zitan and Zixuan had already returned to Longgan Palace, and the inner room had already been tidied up. Emperor Jing entered the side hall and carefully placed Su Qingyan on the bed.

Bowing his head and kissing Su Qingyan's forehead, Emperor Jing walked towards the outer room.

In order to take Ah Qing out for fun and fulfill her wish, Emperor Jing put down all the court affairs, and only then did he have the time for today. Now that he is back in the palace, there are still many things to deal with.

…………

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is back." In Yongchun Palace, Hongxiu walked in from outside the hall, blessed Concubine Rong, and said back.

"Understood." In response, Concubine Rong, who was leaning against the soft couch, had a gloomy look in her eyes.

I have to say that the emperor is really kind to Concubine Chen. When I was the most favored, I was never taken out by the emperor to play. The most was to go to the palace to escape the summer heat.

However, every time he went to the palace, there would always be many concubines with him, and there was never a time when the emperor took him alone.

But now, such honors all fall on Concubine Chen.

"Is it almost over at Yongchun Palace?" It took a long time for Concubine Rong's mood to return to normal. She looked at Hongxiu and asked.

"If you go back to your mother, on the tenth day of the lunar new year, the gate of Yongchun Palace can be opened." Seeing that the master had returned to normal, Hongxiu hurriedly opened his mouth and answered Rong Guifei's words.

"Understood, remember to prepare some things and send them to Yongchun Palace." Nodding her head, Concubine Rong opened her mouth to give instructions, and Hongxiu responded and stood aside respectfully.

"The nearest harem is really quiet. Ever since the deposed Empress Xiao left, the harem has been like a pool of stagnant water." Getting up from the soft couch, Concubine Rong walked towards the entrance of the palace. She stood outside the main hall of Yichun Palace, facing Qi Looking in the direction of Fenggong.

Hong Xiu followed Concubine Rong, and hearing what her master said, she couldn't help but feel moved, "Master, this servant thinks of something."

"Say." Without looking at Hongxiu, Concubine Rong ordered.

"A few days ago, the emperor sent the embroiderer to Longgan Palace to measure the clothes for Concubine Chen. The servants heard that the embroiderer who was in charge of measuring the size was reprimanded by the maids around Concubine Chen."

"Reprimand? Why?" After listening to Hongxiu, Concubine Rong asked, she was a little curious, after all, in the harem, Concubine Chen and the people around her were considered good-tempered.

"It seems that because Xiu Niang said something wrong, everyone in the harem knew that Concubine Chen was less than four months pregnant, but the Niang Xiu said that Concubine Chen's belly looked like she was nearly five months pregnant. I was reprimanded by the red sandalwood next to Concubine Chen."

After thinking about it carefully, Hongxiu then opened her mouth to answer, when she heard it, she didn't pay much attention to it, seeing that the master was in a bad mood today, that's why she took this matter as a joke and told Concubine Rong.

"Now that you said that, Ben Gong remembered that Concubine Chen's belly really doesn't look like she's four months pregnant." After hearing Hong Xiu's words, Concubine Rong thought about it, and then said to Hong Xiu.

"I don't blame the embroiderer for saying the wrong thing. If I hadn't known about it, I'm afraid I would have misunderstood it." Thinking of Su Qingyan's belly, Concubine Rong couldn't help but have a weird expression.

"Speaking of which, Imperial Concubine Chen's belly is indeed a bit bigger than ordinary people. Could it be that there is something wrong with it?" In the harem, she could see too many things, Concubine Rong frowned, thinking secretly.

"Your Majesty, do you want your maidservant to check it out?" Hearing Concubine Rong's words, Hong Xiu asked for Concubine Rong's opinion.

"Let's forget it. In the current situation, I don't want to provoke Concubine Chen, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." After waving his hand, Concubine Rong gave orders, and after hearing what she said, Hong Xiu didn't say anything else.

"Why don't we..." Motioned her to come over, Concubine Rong leaned close to her ear, whispered a few words, after Hongxiu listened, bowed, and then retreated.

Watching Hongxiu leave, Concubine Rong took another look in the direction of Qifeng Palace, then she looked away and sat back on the soft couch.

…………

When Su Qingyan woke up, it was already very late. Emperor Jing had just returned, and when he heard that Su Qingyan had woken up, he went directly into the inner room and carried her out.

"Go and prepare something to eat." Putting Su Qingyan on the soft couch, Emperor Jing gave instructions to Nanny Jin. Things were always heating up in the small kitchen, just waiting for Su Qingyan to wake up.

"Is the emperor busy?" Sitting on the soft couch, looking at Emperor Jing's unchanging clothes, Su Qingyan asked.

Seeing Su Qingyan staring at his clothes, Emperor Jing smiled and nodded, "Well, there are some things that need to be dealt with, are you sleeping well?"
