During this period, Imperial Noble Consort Li became very well behaved. She was no longer arrogant and domineering, but always observed etiquette and respected hierarchy.
When Zhou Beichen saw this, surprise flashed in his eyes. He rushed over and picked up Concubine Li.
"My beloved concubine is just feeling better now. It's better not to get out of bed and rest well."
After Zhou Beichen put her on the bed, Imperial Noble Concubine Li felt much better because she had just hated Concubine Liang out of jealousy. Anyway, no matter what, she now occupied an important position in the emperor's heart, so she was not so uncomfortable anymore.
Thinking about what Zhou Beichen had just said about going to Concubine Liang's place in a while, Imperial Noble Concubine Li lowered her head, her mind spinning wildly.
"Your Majesty, I am not only panicking, but also dizzy."
Concubine Li leaned into Zhou Beichen's arms.
Zhou Beichen: “…”
Her body paused slightly. Why didn't he see that she was panicking? Instead, he saw that she was quite good at pretending.
Seeing that Zhou Beichen didn't react, Concubine Li pouted and looked at him with dissatisfaction.
"Your Majesty, why don't you feel my heart? It's beating really fast."
Zhou Beichen was stunned again. What kind of person was this Concubine Li? She really treated him as a fool and fooled him. However, thinking about his own family and country, the vast territory he had fought and defended with great difficulty, Zhou Beichen felt that he had to endure it and cooperate with this woman in her acting.
Although he felt a little nauseous.
"Your Majesty, please touch it, just touch it, okay?"
Imperial Noble Consort Li kept twisting her slender waist, her head pressed against his chest, getting closer and closer.
Concubine Liang: “…”
She said that if she stayed any longer, she would vomit. She stood up and knelt gracefully, with her back straight.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late, and Concubine Li is pregnant. I won't bother you any more and will take my leave."
Zhou Beichen's eyes were gloomy. He sat on the edge of the bed with someone in his arms. Just when Concubine Liang was about to leave, Zhou Beichen stretched out his hand and locked Concubine Liang tightly in his arms.
Concubine Liang: “…”
Imperial Noble Consort Li: “…”
What the hell, how could the emperor do this? For a moment, both of them had bad thoughts about each other.
Only towards Zhou Beichen, he forgot to scold or complain.
The two people in his arms looked at each other and their hearts beat very fast.
A playful smile flashed across Zhou Beichen's lips.
Then, he lowered his head, and his eyebrows and eyes were filled with uncontrollable tenderness.
But that tenderness was directed towards Concubine Liang, and he didn't even give a glance to Concubine Li.
"It's getting late, but besides this child, I also have Hanhan and Nuannuan. I still want to have a few more children."
Concubine Liang's face suddenly changed, and she tried to get up from Zhou Beichen's arms. Unexpectedly, Zhou Beichen gently pushed Concubine Li out, and hugged Concubine Liang even tighter.
When Concubine Liang realized what was happening, she became a little anxious. To be honest, she had never thought that Concubine Li would snatch the person away. With her brain, who knows what else she would have to think about.
Concubine Liang remained calm and tried to refuse with her heart pounding.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Li has just gotten better. Her mood is most likely to fluctuate at this time. In my opinion, Your Majesty should stay in Li'an Palace tonight."
Zhou Beichen didn't move this time. He looked at Concubine Li with an embarrassed expression.
"Li'er, you know I've been on the throne for many years without a child. I finally had Hanhan and Nuannuan, but they've both been a source of worry for me, especially Nuannuan. She's become arrogant because of her favor and doesn't have the demeanor of a princess. I'm almost thirty now, so I have to have a few children. Li'er is so sensible..."
Zhou Beichen stopped talking halfway through.
Imperial Noble Consort Li's expression suddenly changed. She lay back on the bed and managed a forced smile. "Your Majesty is right. I am pregnant and cannot accompany Your Majesty by your side. I feel guilty about this. Your Majesty, I can do it on my own."
Concubine Liang smiled awkwardly beside her. Zhou Beichen showed a satisfied smile and walked forward to touch Concubine Li's head, like touching a kitten or a puppy.
"I knew it. Li'er is the most sensible and the best behaved."
Then, under the eager gaze of Concubine Li, Zhou Beichen picked up Concubine Liang by the waist and walked away.
Even though Concubine Li's eyes were tired and her clothes were wet with tears, he never turned back once.
Concubine Li was clearly filled with hatred, but she couldn't say it out loud. This made her feel extremely uncomfortable, and her silent tears fell to the ground. There were several nail marks on her palms. When Suoxin brought the pregnancy-maintaining medicine into the bedroom, she saw this scene. She became anxious and quickly put the medicine bowl on the table. She ran over and threw herself beside Concubine Li, looking at her nervously.
Persuade and enlighten with earnest words.
"My Lady, my good Lady, didn't the Imperial Physician tell you that you can't get angry in your current state. It's not good for the child. Even for the sake of the child in your belly, you must take care of yourself."
After hearing what Suoxin said, Imperial Noble Concubine Li thought about it, hesitated for a while, and finally nodded with full fighting spirit.
"You're right. What's the competition for favor in the harem? Is it beauty? No, the emperor has seen countless beauties. What matters is giving birth to a well-behaved and lovely child, preferably a prince, not a princess. If I could have the same blessing as Shen Nian'an who was confined to the cold palace, that would be great. If I could also give birth to twins, no matter what the emperor says, I would have to stay here every night."
Imperial Noble Consort Li happily instructed Suoxin, "Go prepare some delicious side dishes. After dinner, I will take medicine. As long as there is even a 50% chance of survival, I will do my utmost to save this child."
Since the master was interested, the servant was naturally happy. Suoxin excitedly went to heat up porridge for Concubine Li.
On the other side, after Zhou Beichen brought Concubine Liang back to the palace, without saying a word, the two of them immediately learned some unspeakable things.
afterwards.
After finishing the game, Zhou Beichen pulled up his pants and said, "I suddenly remembered that there are still some memorials to be approved in the Shangshufang, so I won't accompany you anymore," and left.
Concubine Liang: “…”
She clenched her fists, her head full of questions. Why did she feel that the emperor seemed to be deliberately trying to disrupt the relationship between her and Imperial Noble Consort Li?
He wouldn't know that Prime Minister Li had been secretly colluding with their country, trying to seize power and the throne in seven years and pull him down from the throne. If that was the case, then the man just now was really terrifying.
Concubine Liang's heart was pounding and her face was flushed. She didn't know whether it was because she was scared or tired.
After Zhou Beichen left, he really went to Xuan Zheng Hall. Along the way, he was in such a good mood.
