"Alright, alright, Li'er, He'er is already very sensible. She just wants to be closer to her father. That's not a problem. I've been childless for half my life. Now, as long as the child is sensible, I will naturally be more tolerant."
"The Emperor taught me that."
Imperial Noble Consort Li lowered her head. As expected, seeing the tenderness in Zhou Beichen's eyes, a triumphant smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Look, Zhou Zhaonuan, Chen Nian'an, what do you think? As long as I'm pregnant, the emperor's heart will return to me again.
Then, Zhou Beichen turned to Zhou Zhaonuan and said in feigned anger.
"Come here, Princess Chang'an Zhou Zhaonuan disregards the distinction between high and low, commits insubordination, and disrespects her stepmother. She is... under house arrest for one month. Imperial Concubine Hui, for poorly educating her daughter, is also under house arrest for one month."
As soon as these words were spoken, Deshun, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but run over, ignoring Zhou Beichen's cold expression and speaking in a mournful voice.
"Your Majesty, please think twice. The princess is still young and just has a childish mind. Please don't be angry, Your Majesty."
Zhou Beichen sneered and flicked his sleeves. "Not angry? Look at what she just said. She's truly my good daughter. I've spoiled her during this time. Zhou Zhaonuan, you must reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors. When you've figured it out, kneel before me. If anything happens to Imperial Concubine Li's child, I'll let you off the hook."
After saying that, regardless of Zhou Zhaonuan's increasingly red eyes and silent tears, Zhou Beichen picked up Concubine Li, spoke gentle and considerate words, and left.
Zhou Bihe followed closely behind, and when Zhou Beichen stepped out of the door, she glared at Zhou Zhaonuan fiercely.
......
"Li'er, don't be angry. Anger is harmful to your health. You just got pregnant, so you need to be more careful. Come on, I'll accompany you to see the imperial physician. If you miss your mother, I can let her come to the palace to accompany you in a few days."
Walking in the palace, Imperial Noble Concubine Li shyly buried her head in Zhou Beichen's arms, nodded shyly, paused, and shook her head.
"But Your Majesty, don't the palace rules say that my mother can only enter the palace when I am about to give birth?"
Zhou Beichen felt that Concubine Li's brain had made great progress during this period. Considering that she had been close to Concubine Liang recently, Zhou Beichen thought about it and said domineeringly.
"It's alright. I have to follow the rules. You were just frightened because of Nuan... Princess Chang'an. You should let your mother enter the palace as soon as possible."
"I will obey the emperor. If my mother can enter the palace, I will feel even better."
Concubine Li looked up at him, her eyes filled with love. Zhou Beichen gave her a gentle and affectionate smile in return.
"Okay, I will draft an edict in a moment and have the Prime Minister's wife enter the palace tomorrow."
Being held in someone's arms, they walked through the imperial garden and returned to the bedroom. After the imperial physician left, Zhou Beichen was still beside her, asking about her well-being. Imperial Noble Concubine Li really felt that she had fallen into a nest of happiness. This pregnancy was a good choice for her. Lying on the soft couch at this moment, she felt like she was in another world.
"Then my beloved concubine, you should take good care of yourself, and I will leave."
Patting Imperial Noble Consort Li's hand, he said, "I still have some memorials to review. Otherwise, why would I be here with you?"
"Your Majesty, I want to..."
Imperial Noble Consort Li suddenly raised her upper body, and her delicate hands tightly grasped Zhou Beichen's sleeves. Her eyes were filled with tears, and her look of trying to keep him made Zhou Beichen's face twitch unnaturally.
"Alright, my beloved concubine, no matter what, I have to go and review memorials. You should take good care of yourself. Don't get out of bed today. Jinlan, you stay here and take good care of Imperial Noble Consort Li with Suoxin."
After pulling away Consort Li's hand, Zhou Beichen walked away with a smile.
After the person left, there was a "pa" sound and everyone in Li'an Palace shuddered with fear. Suoxin secretly glanced at Jinlan and stepped forward to wipe the tears of Concubine Li who was about to cry again.
"Wuwuwu...I am already like this, I just want the emperor to stay with me for a while, but the emperor still left..."
"Suo Xin, tell me, does my child also miss his father? Otherwise, why would I be so upset?"
Lock Heart: "......"
Well, it was the first time she heard that a two-month-old baby could think. Their mother was probably too happy and her mental state was a little abnormal.
Suoxin nodded in agreement, rubbing Concubine Li's forehead to comfort her.
"Your Majesty is right. It must be that the little princess or prince in your belly misses their father. That's why you feel so uncomfortable."
Even after Suoxin said this, the tears in Concubine Li's eyes, which were about to shed tears, finally stopped. She nodded in agreement, and then a happy smile appeared on the corners of her mouth.
"Speaking of which, I've been married for so many years, and now that I have a child, it really feels like a lifetime ago. Of course, no matter what, as long as the emperor has me in his heart, that's all that matters."
Jin Lan was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what Noble Consort Li meant. She sneered in her heart and walked forward attentively.
"Your Majesty is right. Recently, after the Emperor reviewed memorials in Xuanzheng Hall, he would sometimes laugh when he mentioned Your Majesty to the servants."
Imperial Noble Consort Li raised her neck proudly, looking as if she knew it.
"Of course. After all, I've been by the Emperor's side for ten years. Now that we have a child, I've become the Imperial Consort, managing the six harems. Naturally, it's different."
Imperial Noble Concubine Li put her hand on her belly, which was soft. When she thought that it was the fruit of her and the emperor's love, she couldn't help but smile.
Jin Lan maintained her usual cold and stiff expression and nodded slightly.
"After so many years of hard work and kindness, now that Your Majesty has a dragon fetus and is highly regarded by the Emperor, it is naturally what you deserve."
Imperial Noble Concubine Li was delighted. She didn't think too much about it. She just felt that this time, the emperor was not only good to her family, but also to her. He really remembered her kindness. After all, Jin Lan had been serving Zhou Beichen since he ascended the throne. She was already an old veteran in the palace. Now, keeping her here, Imperial Noble Concubine Li felt that this showed Zhou Beichen's appreciation and love for her.
After leaving the palace, in the imperial garden, Zhou Beichen paused and stopped looking at the fork in the road in front of him.
Deshun stopped immediately, he knelt humbly, looked at Zhou Beichen carefully, closed his eyes and made up his mind.
"Your Majesty, where are we going?"
Zhou Beichen was feeling irritated. When he heard this, he glanced at him coldly. De Shun lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word.
Where are you going?
Zhou Beichen Yi was thinking about where to go. Just now, because the little girl was acting unreasonably and was too stupid to see his eyes, he had no choice but to restrain the little girl. Now the girl was probably crying under the quilt, and no matter how he tried to comfort her, she wouldn't stop.
He really wants to go see his daughter.
What about Imperial Noble Consort Keli?
