Queen is fearless

Chapter 578 White Lies
For the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet on August [-]th, the brother and sister did not go to Yanqing Palace with the empress.

In previous years, the Empress Dowager would accompany the Empress to spend the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet in Yanqing Palace. This year, she didn't want to make a fuss, so she discussed it with the Empress in advance.

After noon, someone was sent to Fengyang Palace to take the siblings to Shoukang Palace.

When the emperor and empress spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with everyone in the harem in Yanqing Palace, the brother and sister spent the Mid-Autumn Festival with the empress dowager in Shoukang Palace.

Compared with that time last year, the brother and sister are much more sensible, although they are still quite naughty, but they will not cause trouble in Shoukang Palace.

Now that they have all returned to Fengyang Palace, it is time for the family of five to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

"Mother, when will the little brother come out and celebrate the festival with us?"

Yuan Zhen ate a mouthful of fruit, looked at Gu Jinzhi's stomach, and spoke with a puzzled expression.

By August, Yuan Zhen was already two and a half years old. Most of the time, she could speak fluently, only a few times, she would get stuck.

But as long as she doesn't worry and speaks slowly, she will always express what she wants to express clearly.

In this regard, Yuan Cheng is not as good as Yuan Zhen, perhaps because he spoke later than Yuan Zhen before.

Gu Jinzhi is not in a hurry. The development of children varies from individual to individual. Some are more than two years old and can say a lot of words, while others may be vague and only have a few words.

No matter which one it is, sooner or later, the two children will speak smoothly. When the time comes, the child in the womb will be born, and the elder brother and sister can teach how to speak.

"About next month, the baby will be born. In this way, we can celebrate the festival together in the future."

After thinking about it, Gu Jinzhi responded to Yuan Zhen's question. Although they all said that they were pregnant in ten months, under normal circumstances, a child would be born in more than nine months.

This is Gu Jinzhi's experience after experiencing a childbirth. He used to think that he had to be pregnant for ten months before giving birth.

Calculated in terms of days, the expected date of delivery should be next month. Unless there are special circumstances, otherwise, it is impossible to arrive in October.

Such a day is not bad, the weather will be cold in September, and it won't be too hard during the confinement period.

After confinement, the weather will be cold, and everything will be convenient at that time, so there is nothing to worry about.

"Great!" Yuan Zhen couldn't help cheering, looking forward to it even more.

Watching the moon with the siblings and telling stories, until the siblings got a little sleepy, Gu Jinzhi ordered the palace servants to take them down to wash and rest.

Under the service of the palace servants, the emperor also tidied up and lay on the bed.

"Where did you read the story you just told?" Zhou Jing asked while holding Gu Jinzhi in his arms.

This made Gu Jinzhi's body stiffen. What she told the siblings just now was the story of Chang'e flying to the moon.

The era she lived in was an era that did not exist in history.

In today's vocabulary, this is an overhead dynasty.

There is nothing here that she is familiar with, and even the fairy tales are completely different from what she knows.

Therefore, here, there is no so-called story of Chang'e flying to the moon.

Gu Jinzhi was inattentive just now and told a story that didn't belong to this era. At that time, Zhou Jing was a little puzzled, but he didn't ask. He didn't ask until they were the only ones left.

"It's just the books I read at random in my spare time, and the stories I read. If the emperor really asks which book, I will know it in a while, and I still can't remember it."

It was impossible to tell the truth, so Gu Jinzhi had no choice but to tell a white lie.

She knew that it was impossible for the emperor to get to the bottom of it, so he had to remind her of the name of the book.

"Well, the story you just told is quite interesting." Sure enough, when she said so, Zhou Jing nodded, but she didn't mean to delve into it.

"Yeah, I thought it was interesting at the time, so I remembered the story. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the book."

"It's just a miscellaneous book, but someone who can write such a story must be interesting."

Secretly heaving a sigh of relief, Gu Jinzhi spoke with a smile.

"Jinzhi, do you know that most of the time, I feel that I am far away from you. Even though you are in my arms, I always feel that I can't figure you out."

Holding Gu Jinzhi in his arms, Zhou Jing spoke slowly, and Gu Jinzhi's body stiffened involuntarily.

"What do you mean by the emperor's words?" She felt uneasy. Could it be that the emperor is suspicious of something?
"It's just a few gossips, don't be nervous." Sensing her nervousness, Zhou Jing stroked her back and comforted her.

"I don't know why I feel that way. In short, sometimes, I feel a sense of distance from you, as if...you and I used to live in different places."

This feeling is sometimes very strong, but the queen is indeed the daughter of the Gu family, there is no doubt about it.

Therefore, it is impossible for the two to live in the same place since they were young.

Gu Jinzhi grew up in the capital, so did Zhou Jing, and now, the two live together in the palace.

Gu Jinzhi gave a dry laugh, and had to say, the emperor's sense is quite keen.

Indeed, the place where they lived in the past was not the same place, she was in modern times, and he was in ancient times.

The body held in Zhou Jing's arms is indeed called Gu Jinzhi, and so is her inside, but the soul that originally belonged to this body disappeared a few years ago.

She, a person from modern times, took possession of this body, and then used her own advantages to get the attention of the emperor, to win the favor of the emperor, and finally, to capture the emperor's sincerity.

These things, Gu Jinzhi knew it well, but only she knew it, no matter what, she couldn't tell Zhou Jing.

She could almost imagine that if Zhou Jing knew that she was not the original Gu Jinzhi, but a ghost from another world, she would be imprisoned in Fengyang Palace from now on.

"Is it because the emperor was too tired recently, so he was thinking wildly?"

Opening with a smile, Gu Jinzhi rubbed against Zhou Jing's chest, yawned, and turned over.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, let's go to bed." It's best to stop this topic, otherwise, if we continue talking, we might end up talking about something.

She said so, Zhou Jing responded, hugged Gu Jinzhi tighter, and closed her eyes.

Because of the pregnancy, Gu Jinzhi could only turn his back to Zhou Jing, otherwise, it would be difficult for Zhou Jing to hold her in his arms.

Soon, the sound of even breathing came, and Zhou Jing's lips showed a little smile, and he fell into a deep sleep.

In the darkness, Gu Jinzhi opened his eyes and sighed in his heart, he must be more careful in the future, things like today will never happen again.

Thinking of this, she finally closed her eyes, listened to Zhou Jing's steady heartbeat, and fell asleep peacefully.
