Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 787 Sleeping
"Good! Good!" Half a month later, Emperor Jing received a good news from the northwest border.

Because of Shen Hao's sneak attack, Wei State suffered heavy damage. Most importantly, the main general was lost in the northwest border, which made Emperor Jing very happy.

After this battle, the loss of Wei State can be said to be huge, compared to the loss of Xing'an, it is not much.

Where there is war, there will be death. Emperor Jing knew clearly that the soldiers in Xing'an suffered no less damage than Wei Guo, but in other respects, compared with Wei Guo, they were still far behind.

After all, before there was Xidi to make up for the loss, and later there was the remaining army tents and food from the Wei State. These things filled Xing'an's treasury, even if they fought again now, it was still possible.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty." This was indeed a good thing, and Su Qingyan was also happy.

"I reckon that the officials sent to Xidi have arrived in the past few days, and it won't be long before General Su will be back."

After putting away the letter, Emperor Jing looked at Su Qingyan and said with a smile.

"Your majesty, do you have any plans after elder brother comes back?" After listening to Emperor Jing's words, Su Qingyan asked in confusion.

"Your brother has made a great contribution. Let him rest for a while. After all, Princess Jinyu is pregnant. General Su must also want to be by his side."

When Su Qingyan was pregnant before, Emperor Jing wanted to stay by her side all the time, so that he could feel at ease and compare his heart with his heart. He felt that Su Qinghan would do the same.

"What's more, after several successive battles, it is still necessary for the soldiers to recuperate. In the short term, nothing should happen again."

After repelling Qing and Chu, taking down Xidi, and now repelling Wei, even if there is still a stronger country, they should weigh it carefully and not take it lightly.

A few days ago, Emperor Jing received Dongyang's letter of credence. Perhaps it was because of Xidi's incident that Dongyang felt a sense of crisis. They were willing to submit to Xing'an, become a subsidiary of Xing'an, and pay tribute every year.

Right now it is July, and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dongyang will come to worship and offer this year's tribute by the way.

In a blink of an eye, Emperor Jing, Su Qingyan and the children had already lived in the palace for a month. During this time, whether it was Emperor Jing, Su Qingyan or the children, they all lived very happily.

For the children, this was a very novel experience. Emperor Jing and Su Qingyan once took them to a nearby village to pick vegetables.

Su Qingyan also led them to make dumplings and steamed stuffed buns by herself.

Perhaps it is because doing it by hand gives a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. During this time, the children gained a lot of weight.

In July, Sheng'er and Bao'er grew up a bit. They have already learned to turn over and sit. After a while, they can crawl all over the ground.

"Ms. Chen, are we still going to catch fish today?" After arriving at the palace, Emperor Jing saw what Su Qingyan's true character was like.

When I went to the village a few days ago, I passed a small stream. The stream was very clear and there were fish swimming around.

Because the stream was not deep, Su Qingyan took the children down to fish in the river. Emperor Jing stood on the bank, dumbfounded.

"I won't go today. Madam Chen is a bit tired. Let's go again in a few days, shall we?" At the beginning of the month, it was when Su Qingyan was young. Although it wasn't too uncomfortable, she still couldn't go into the water.

Anyway, the river near the village is also water from the mountains. Although it is clear, it is a bit cold. Even in summer, Su Qingyan must pay attention.

"Okay, Madam Chen has a good rest, An'er is playing with her brother and younger brother in the palace."

After hearing Su Qingyan finish speaking, Princess An nodded, and after saluting, she left the main hall with the second prince.

Before leaving, the second prince smiled at Su Qingyan, which was a good progress.

During this period of time in the palace, the second prince's temper improved somewhat. Seeing Su Qingyan getting along with the children, Emperor Jing became more and more certain about his thoughts.

"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?" Standing in the outer room, Hongxiu softly called to Concubine Ronghuang. It was past the usual time to wake up, but there was still no sound in the inner room.

After hesitating for a moment, Hong Xiu entered the inner room.

Covered by the veil on the bed, Hongxiu frowned tightly thinking of the situation of the master recently.

Half a month ago, because of Concubine Ronghuang's complexion was very bad, Hongxiu specially invited the imperial doctor and prescribed a prescription, but there was no problem, so she let go of her worries.

Now, another half month has passed, not only has Concubine Rong's health not improved, but her overall condition has become more and more sluggish.

For the past half month, Royal Concubine Rong spent most of her time in Yichun Palace. Because of her unwell body, she was unable to take care of many things by herself.

In desperation, Royal Concubine Rong handed over most of the palace affairs to Qi Zhaoyi for the time being, and she would only decide on extremely important matters by herself.

Regarding her own situation, Concubine Ronghuang was also very puzzled. The day before yesterday, Hongxiu invited the imperial physician again, but nothing was diagnosed. This made Hongxiu vaguely have a bad premonition in her heart.

After all, she has been in the palace for many years, and Hongxiu has seen a lot of conspiratorial plotters. There are some poisons that ordinary imperial doctors can't see. Hongxiu even thought that she should go to the palace and invite Xia Shi back.

With many thoughts in her mind, Hongxiu came to the bed and lifted the veil. On the bed, the Ronghuang noble concubine, who had a very bad complexion, closed her eyes tightly, and seemed to be still asleep.

"Your Majesty, it's time to get up." Softly calling Concubine Rong, seeing that she didn't respond, Hongxiu stretched out her hand and pushed Concubine Rong, but there was still no response.

This time, Hongxiu was really in a hurry, she nudged Concubine Ronghuang, shouted a few more times, then turned and walked towards the outer room.

Soon, the imperial physician was called, and after the diagnosis, he only said that Concubine Ronghuang was overtired, as long as she had a good rest, she would be fine.

When the imperial physician said this, the ominous premonition in Hongxiu's heart became stronger. She felt that her master was definitely not what the imperial physician said.

After sending off the imperial physician, Hongxiu returned to the side of Concubine Ronghuang. Looking at Concubine Ronghuang who was still asleep, Hongxiu secretly made up her mind that she must find a way to get out of the palace and go to the palace to invite Imperial Physician Xia back.

At noon, Royal Concubine Rong finally woke up, Hong Xiu wept with joy, and told Concubine Rong about her situation.

"Hongxiu, I want to ask you, how is Qi Zhaoyi's condition recently?" After hearing Hongxiu's words, Imperial Concubine Rong leaned on the bed and asked Hongxiu expectantly.

"Returning to the empress, the servant has checked, and it seems that Qi Zhaoyi's condition is not very good, but she is better than you. Her current appearance is more like your previous appearance."

Hearing the question from Concubine Ronghuang, Hongxiu responded, this is also where Hongxiu was puzzled.

At first she thought it was Qi Zhaoyi's poison, but after checking, she found that Qi Zhaoyi's situation was the same as her own master's, which made her a little puzzled...
