The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 713
Jin Xin handed over the prepared red dates and bird's nest soup, put the bowl on the back of her hand to try it out, and then said: "Your Majesty, let's use some soup first. This servant has heard that the final result of the Queen's interrogation is green E wanted to get the pair of bracelets by herself, but she was afraid that the empress would blame her, so she bit back, saying that the empress gave the bracelets to her in order to bribe her to pass on a message, which sounded like a joke. It’s true, it’s enough to prevaricate people, but the slaves don’t believe it.”

"If what I said is correct, the Luca people are gone, right?" Qingchen said indifferently, slowly stirring the soup in the white jade bowl with a small silver spoon, as if he didn't have much appetite, "She's a waiter It is a serious crime to covet your master’s things, not to mention trying to slander, the queen will not keep alive, let alone she has to cover up for others.”

Jin Xin thought for a while and said: "The Imperial Garden held a banquet that day, and Concubine Li and Sang Guirong did not attend because they were unwell, so who among the rest would want to frame the empress?"

Qingchen snorted softly and said: "If the result of the queen's interrogation is like this, then who instigated Lue, I have a rough idea, but I asked myself that I have no enmity with her, why did she hate me so much as soon as she entered the palace?" , Is it because I am favored by this Palace?"

Jin Xin's eyes widened and she asked, "Your Majesty suspects that it's Qin Wanrong?"

Qingchen nodded slightly, "Aside from her, who else is the queen willing to protect? Although the queen doesn't like her, because of Concubine Li's entry into the palace, the queen has annoyed the queen mother, so protecting Qin Wanrong once in this way is also a favor to the queen mother, to ease the tension. Let's talk about the relationship with the Queen Mother."

Jin Xin pursed her lips and said disdainfully: "They are a nest of snakes and rats, and they still have their own thoughts, which is really disgusting. It's just that the queen has never found any clues about the abortion pill, and it's been a headache for a while to think about it."

Qingchen tasted the soup in his hands slowly, and didn't seem to care, "Don't worry, one day you will know who made it."

Seeing that it was getting late, Jin Xin asked: "Madam, the dinner is ready, is it the old custom to wait until the emperor comes?"

Qingchen lowered his eyes sadly, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart, "Let's put it on, I don't need to bother to prepare like this in the future, before I give birth, this Duanyang Palace is going to be neglected."

Jin Xin saw that she was sad, and knew that their current situation was really unfavorable. Even the ancestors said such things. If the emperor insisted on not obeying, he was afraid that he would be outraged and no one would protect him, so he softly persuaded: "Your Majesty Don't think too much, as long as the emperor has his mistress in his heart, even if he can't see you, he must be thinking of his mistress, besides, your empress is not lonely, she has the little prince in her stomach to accompany you. Wait a few months for the little prince to be born Let's see who can stop the emperor from coming to our side?"

Qingchen caressed her belly, warm maternal love welled up in her heart, she pursed her lips in relief and said, "Fortunately, I still have him, as long as I have him, no matter how difficult the life is, I can always get through it."

In the evening, the little father-in-law in front of the imperial court came to send a message, saying that the emperor will rest in Fuxi Palace tonight, and asked her to go to bed earlier.Qingchen had expected this a long time ago, and he wanted to ask who the emperor called to sleep in, but there seemed to be something blocked in his throat, sore and uncomfortable, he opened his mouth but didn't ask.

In the end, it was Jin Xin who was blunt and asked directly: "Then which palace sign did the emperor turn over tonight?"

The little father-in-law replied: "There is no other palace, the emperor said that he is tired, and he doesn't want to summon his concubine tonight."

Jin Xin has always been like this, her emotions and sorrows are all written on her face, she said happily when she heard the words: "Your Majesty, you heard, the Emperor is resting alone in Fuxi Palace tonight."

Fuxi Palace is the emperor's bedroom, just in front of Duanyang Palace, but only a few steps away, at this moment, it seems that there is some impassable ravine, and he can only look at his bedroom and sigh slightly.

"Why do you embarrass yourself so much, Your Majesty?"

Jin Xin rearranged the bed, straightened the wrinkles on the quilt, turned her head and said with a smile: "The empress dowagers of the two palaces thought it was the empress who occupied the emperor. Now the emperor doesn't come to the empress, but he doesn't care to go to other people. Now they should Don't you have anything to say?"

Yun Lan took off the phoenix hairpin on her head, gently combed her black hair, and said in a gentle voice: "The emperor is afraid that the empress will feel sad, and let the empress understand that even if he doesn't come, there is still an empress in his heart."

Qingchen held the red jade hairpin of the Albizia julibrissin in her hand, ever since Xiao Jun gave her the set of silk juniper flower jewelry, she loved this jade hairpin very much and always wore it on her head.

"He also has his own reasons. It's not that I can't understand that the emperor's behavior will still make the queen mothers of the two palaces unhappy. I just want to protect the child in my womb. It's not a good thing for the emperor to compete like this."

Yun Lan didn't seem to be very worried, and shook her head lightly, "The emperor always knows what to do. Your majesty only needs to rest assured to raise a baby. The rest is beyond your control. The news of your empress's training in Yongshou Palace has already been spread. In the harem, those concubines who are not pregnant will definitely try their best to compete for favor, let's just watch coldly, even if the empress is left out in the cold, who among them can win the emperor's favor."

Sure enough, what Yunlan said was correct, Xiao Jun stayed alone in Fuxi Palace the first night, and the next morning, outside the door of the imperial study, Qin Wanrong and Hao Wanyi got into a fight, and Xiao Jieyu also went to join in the fun with the eldest prince in her arms. Concubine Li who went to pay her respects gave her a severe lesson, but no one saw the emperor, and they all went back resentfully.

Although the emperor didn't come, he would send Liu An to greet him every day. When Liu An came that day, Qingchen saw that he was still holding a few plates of cakes in his hand, and his hands were trembling. A few plates of snacks made by Fang Xin, give it to the empress to try something new."

"Then there will be Mr. Lao." While speaking, Qingchen already had a bad premonition in his heart.

Liu An bowed and stood in front of her, Jin Xin stretched out his hand to take it, but Liu An withdrew his hand slightly, and handed over the snack again, as if if she didn't eat, he couldn't go back to work.

Yunlan vigilantly shook her head in secret, Qingchen smiled coldly, reached out to pick up a piece of hibiscus osmanthus cake, and was about to eat it, but suddenly dropped the cake in his hand, pressed his chest and retched, until His face flushed red, he rubbed his chest and couldn't breathe.

Yun Lan understood, and hastily ordered: "Xiao Xiangzi, hurry up and call Doctor Gu to come and have a look. Your Majesty has suffered from severe morning sickness recently, and she only ate two mouthfuls of porridge this morning. How can this go on like this?"

Seeing her appearance, Jin Xin hurriedly came over to support her and said, "Ma'am, let's go into the house, and the servant will pour you a cup of tea to see if it feels better."

Qingchen panted heavily, his face flushed, he turned to Liu An and said, "Eunuch Liu, I'm afraid..." Before he could finish his sentence, he pressed his chest and started to vomit violently.

Yun Lan beckoned to Jinxiu, "Hurry up, send your mother into the house to rest for a while."
