Chapter 14 Meal
After seeing the person coming, Li Jieyu swallowed back the last half of the sentence.

"Are you okay?" Zhao Jing helped her up, he didn't expect Li Jieyu to come out suddenly.

After all, what she was pregnant with was his own child. Even if she was a princess, she might die early, so he still cared about it.

"Thank you, ma'am, I'm fine." Moving to the side, Li Jieyu responded, she was secretly glad that she didn't swear anything harsh.

It's just that when she sees the queen, she will think of the palace servants who followed her majesty to Yichun Palace.

Thinking in this way, she glanced behind Zhao Jing, and seeing Zisu, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"Did you come out for something?" Everyone else was in the hall, and she came out by herself, so Zhao Jing asked one more question.

"Go back to your mother, concubine... I want to go conveniently." She actually didn't want to, but right now she couldn't find a better excuse.

"Then let's go." Without noticing her expression, Zhao Jing only thought that she really wanted to go, and he ordered to pass her into the main hall.

Li Jieyu heaved a sigh of relief, since she had spoken, she simply asked the palace servants to take her there.

In the hall, all the concubines paid their respects together, Zhao Jing sat in the first place, feeling uncomfortable all over his body.

"The last time I saw you was the day before yesterday. I... I am not a person who respects rules. From now on, I will greet you every day, so let's change it to once every three days."

He didn't know when he would be able to change it back, seeing that Tian'er was really not used to dealing with concubines in the harem, so he adopted what Xie Zhao said and changed the previous rule of daily morning and evening appointments to once every three days.

"Thank you, Empress, for your compassion." The concubines didn't want to toss about every day, and now that they got permission, they were naturally happy and saluted him together.

"Sit down." Zhao Jing ordered, took a sip of the tea in hand.

The hall was silent for a while, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Zhao Jing didn't know what to say to them, he had never become Xie Zhao in his previous life, even if he went to the harem, it was these concubines who pleased him.

As for how they got along with Xie Zhao, he didn't know much.

Similarly, the concubines present didn't know what to say, after all, the new queen had only entered the palace for a few days, and it was heard that she had cleaned up the stewards of the Shang Palace Bureau yesterday.

They couldn't figure out the temper of the queen, so they didn't dare to speak rashly, lest they get into bad luck.

"If there is nothing wrong with your mother, you can tell me to leave and say hello." Xiao Yun saw that the master was uncomfortable, and lowered his voice to whisper in Zhao Jing's ear.

"Then let's go." Zhao Jingru hurriedly ordered as if he had been pardoned, and all the concubines got up again, bowed and retreated.

"Don't worry about it, just pass the meal in the back hall of Fengming Palace." Standing up, Zhao Jing went to the back hall, he had already forgotten about Li Jieyu.

Although he forgot, Xiao Yun still remembered that she specially left someone behind so that she could talk to Li Jieyu when she came back.

When Li Jieyu returned to the main hall, she was stunned, waiting for her little maid to come forward, salute her, and report back to her the news that Ann had dispersed.

"This...why did it just break up, I haven't come back yet." She frowned, feeling quite aggrieved.

But it is useless to tell the little maid, she is just a messenger.

"Let's go." With an order, she turned around and went out of the hall, Yuanwei quickly supported her and persuaded her in a low voice.

Even if someone persuaded her, Li Jieyu was still wronged, she muttered while walking.

"Why did they break up? I just went to make things easier."

"This Xiao Cairen is also true. He doesn't wait for me, he just wants to see me make a fool of himself."

"Empress, what does this mean? Are you trying to warn me that I...before I pretended to be..."

After thinking about it all the way until she got on the soft sedan chair, she was almost at Yichun Palace, and Yuanwei could still hear her master chanting.

"Master, don't be angry. Didn't the Empress specially leave someone to send you a message? I must be thinking about you in her heart."

"Why does she miss me? Are you angry that I am pregnant with a child?" Li Jieyu lifted the car curtain, looking at Yuanwei with red eyes.

Iris sighed in her heart, she knew that if she continued to talk, she might just get worse, so she quickly changed the subject.

"Master, didn't you say you were hungry just now? What would you like to eat? This servant will go get it for you."

As Jieyu, she naturally has her corresponding status, but Li Jieyu is pregnant, so there will be some preferential treatment.

"I...I want to eat duck in eight-treasure sauce, and I also want to eat the sour plums delivered a few days ago."

Speaking of eating, Li Jieyu swallowed, she was indeed hungry.

"Sure, I'll get it for you now." Iris was relieved, and responded cheerfully.

"Wait a minute." Li Jieyu called to stop her, Yuanwei was a little apprehensive, worried that her master would remember what happened just now.

"You send someone to look for His Majesty, and invite His Majesty to have dinner in the evening." She ordered, without talking about what happened just now, Li Wei responded again and led the people away.

Zhao Jing didn't know that because he had nothing to say, he ended the greeting early, which would cause Li Jieyu to react like that.

After breakfast, he ordered someone to go back to Jianzhang Palace and bring the steward who came to see him today.

Xiao Yun took the order and sent people back to Jianzhang Palace.

There was an example yesterday, today no palace official dares to neglect again, the person who came to lead the new post and familiarize himself with various places changed from Liushang to the steward of the Yeting Bureau, Zhao Jing met him yesterday.

-

After the early morning dispersal, the Japanese lecture is still in the Wenhua Hall, and it is still the ministers who were in charge yesterday.

For Xie Zhao, it might be difficult for her to go to the early court, but the daily lectures are very easy, especially the ministers have their own abilities, even if there is something she doesn't understand, they can explain it to her thoroughly.

After the daily lecture was over, the palace servants led the ministers to rest, Xie Zhao hesitated again and again, and ordered Jiang Hai to invite Lord Xie back.

It is not uncommon for His Majesty to have meals with ministers, besides, Xie Hou Xie Huai'an is also the head of the state, so no one else can say anything.

Soon, Xie Huaian followed Jiang Hai back to the main hall.

"Thank you, no courtesy." Greeting Xie Huai'an to sit down, Xie Zhao asked Jiang Hai to go to the dining room, and ordered two dishes that Xie Huai'an liked besides her own.

Sitting on the chair, Xie Huai'an looked at His Majesty, slightly surprised in his heart, this was not the first time he had a meal with His Majesty, but it was the first time His Majesty personally ordered food for him.

What's more, His Majesty actually knew what he liked... Presumably it was Zhao Zhao who told His Majesty.

Jiang Hai led the order to retreat, Xie Zhao picked up the teacup and took a peek at Xie Huai'an, Xie Huai'an was still looking at her, she quickly looked away.

Xie Huai'an was taken aback by such a small gesture, he thought of his most beloved young girl.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being presumptuous, empress..."

"Don't worry, Xie Hou, she is fine now, and she will be fine in the future." Before Xie Huai'an finished speaking, Xie Zhao responded that she was sitting in front of her father now, but she couldn't recognize him.
