Feng Wanwan paused for a moment as she raised her little fleshy feet, then slowly lowered them.
[Ouch, ouch! Fortunately, I was quick to react and pulled my foot back in time, otherwise I would have accidentally injured the pig's hoof.]
[But how did my pig-trotter father become so fat? Wasn't he in cahoots with these aunt and nephew? Why did he suddenly attack the queen?]
[Who is his real teammate? ]
My little head couldn't figure out this problem, so I kept thinking about it.
At this moment, everyone present was stunned after hearing Feng Yinzhen's words.
The surprise and expectation in the queen's eyes instantly cooled, and her face instantly lost its color.
The Queen Mother's expression also changed.
Only Hua Fei's beautiful face, which had originally been withered and sad, was like a dying flower that was cast under a spell. It quickly regained its fullness and vitality, and there was joy and smile in the corners of her eyebrows and eyes.
The power to assist in managing the six palaces was not important to her. She had never coveted it, nor had she ever thought of competing with the Queen for it. All she wanted was her husband's heart and affection.
And her husband's current attitude has shown that he stands on her side and firmly protects her.
After many twists and turns, her heart still uncontrollably and joyfully rushed towards him.
After a brief moment of surprise, the queen spoke hurriedly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your mercy. However, the weather has been getting warmer recently, and my health has improved a lot. Moreover, I was once highly regarded by both the Queen Mother and the Emperor. Since I have accepted this assignment, I am not afraid of the hard work. Please, Your Majesty, withdraw your order."
"That's right. I also feel that the Queen has been in good spirits recently and is capable of handling these matters. Your Majesty, please don't let her be lazy just because you favor her. Since she is the Queen, she must assume the responsibilities of a Queen.
Besides, Concubine Hua just gave birth and is still in confinement. Since the Emperor loves her, he should let her rest and recuperate. Why would he let her do such tiring work? "
The Queen Mother was indeed experienced and much calmer than the Queen, and she said this very skillfully.
Hua Fei was not willing to let such an opportunity slip away, so she immediately smiled.
"Your Majesty, you love me, and I am grateful. However, Your Majesty, I am young and have been strong since childhood. Wanwan is also a sensible and good child, so the delivery was not difficult for me. In the past few days, the Emperor has arranged for the imperial physicians to take care of me, and supplements have been sent to the Yikun Palace like water. I have been taking so much supplements these days that I am almost vomiting.
"Your Majesty, look at me. Hasn't my face become rounder? I was just trying to find something to do to lose some weight."
Empress Dowager, please just treat me as someone who loves you. If I become too chubby, the Emperor will be disgusted with me."
She actually put her face close to the Queen Mother, wanting her to see it, and even pulled the Queen Mother's hand and acted coquettishly.
Feng Yinzhen couldn't help but smile when he saw it.
In the entire harem, only she could act like this.
After all, in the entire harem, Lan'er is the only one who is innocent, straightforward and unpretentious, and he loves her for her character.
"Lan'er is indeed young and energetic. After becoming a mother, she has obviously become much more stable. My son has just promoted her to the position of Imperial Noble Consort. Mother, let her also fulfill her duties and share the Queen's worries."
"Your Majesty, I..." The Queen became even more anxious.
It seems that the emperor is determined to give Concubine Hua the power to assist in managing the six palaces.
Her words were interrupted by a glare from the Queen Mother, who sighed softly and nodded.
"Well, since the emperor has made the decision, let's do as he wishes. Although Concubine Hua is young, Concubine Jing is an experienced and steady woman who can help her.
However, Concubine Hua, I have something to say in advance. Managing the six palaces is no simple task. I don't ask you to do a great job, but I hope that nothing goes wrong in the harem. Do you understand?"
"Yes, thank you, Madam Queen. I will definitely live up to your expectations!"
Hua Fei looked at the Queen's gloomy face, feeling proud and happy, and agreed without hesitation.
A smile also appeared on Feng Yinzhen's face. He bowed together with Concubine Hua and extended his hand to the Queen Mother.
"Mother, you've been so exhausted today, and you've been holding Wanwan for so long. You must be very tired. Will your son take you back to Shouning Palace to rest?"
"I'm indeed a little tired. Well, now that the matter is resolved, it's time for me to leave."
The Queen Mother nodded.
But Feng Yinzhen skillfully took Feng Wanwan away who had stayed in her arms for half a day, and then he just lowered his head to tease Feng Wanwan.
He never looked at her again.
Her outstretched right hand paused awkwardly in mid-air.
So, the prince reached out to her just to hug Feng Wanwan, not to help her?
This is really like forgetting the mother after getting a daughter!
It was Nanny Xin who reacted quickly. She caught it immediately and said softly.
"Empress Dowager, the Si'an tea should be ready by now. It will be just in time for you to drink it when you return."
"Well, let's go."
The empress dowager took a deep breath, and finally withdrew her gaze from Feng Yinzhen, who was busy coaxing the baby, and stood up with the help of Nanny Xin's hand.
Song Chun, who was lying on the ground, quickly helped the queen up after she had been kneeling for a long time. The master and slave staggered towards the door, following the footsteps of the empress dowager.
The Yikun Palace was completely quiet.
Feng Wanwan was still trying to think over the question she had just asked.
[Who is this big pig's hoof in league with? ]
[Why does it look like he's in cahoots with my mother? ]
This realization left Feng Wanwan confused and incredulous.
The details from before gradually emerged: my mother almost drank Pingpin's poisonous chicken soup, my pig's hoof father went out for a while, and when he came back, Pingpin committed suicide.
There was musk deer in the gold bracelet that the queen gave to my mother. The pig-hoofed father was not vague at all. He called the queen to deal with it and did not suspect anything. If the queen mother had not appeared and intervened, the queen's position would have been abolished.
