Chapter 13 Double Happiness
She remembered that early this morning, her brother had someone deliver a letter to her, saying that the emperor suspected that she was unfaithful to him and had put him under house arrest, and asked her to go and have a good talk with the emperor.
If it were in the past, she would have let her son release his brother without hesitation. Fortunately, Concubine Li unintentionally stopped her. Now that she heard the Queen's voice, she realized how inconsiderate she was to her son's feelings in the past.
Feng Xiyao stayed in Shoukang Palace for dinner. The food was rich and the empress dowager was so enthusiastic that she ate so much in the end.
But the Queen Mother was somehow very happy and gave her a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. Looking at the treasures that she couldn't hold in one hand, Feng Xiyao couldn't smile the whole day.
After talking with the Queen Mother for a while, she saw her yawning, so Feng Xiyao stood up and said, "Since you are sleepy, please go to sleep first. I can come and accompany you tomorrow!"
"Okay, okay, you must be tired after accompanying me today, go back and have a good rest!" The Queen Mother nodded with a smile.
After Feng Xiyao got up and left, the Queen Mother felt that everything that happened today was magical. She could hear a person's inner thoughts all of a sudden and knew so many things all of a sudden.
“…”
After a moment of silence, she instructed the nanny beside her: "Next time the prince's uncle sends a letter to the palace, don't show it to me. Just burn it!"
The old lady nodded: "Yes!"
The Queen Mother sighed. She couldn't do anything for her son now and didn't want to make things difficult for him!
Her family had been oppressed and suspected after helping the previous emperor ascend the throne. She knew the pain involved, so after her brother helped her son ascend the throne, she considered her brother in everything, but she didn't expect that she would end up nurturing a tiger that would harm her more.
…
When Feng Xiyao returned to Fengchun Palace, she saw the tyrant sitting at the dinner table, looking like he was waiting for her.
"Your Majesty, please eat by yourself. I have eaten at the Queen Mother's place!"
Mo Cangyan looked over when he heard the voice and saw Feng Xiyao with an uncontrollable smile on his face. He ran into the room without even looking at him.
“…”
Mo Cangyan's face suddenly fell. He had been waiting for Feng Xiyao without eating, but he didn't expect her to ignore him like that.
He has gotten into the habit of eating with Feng Xiyao recently. Seeing her eat happily is very appetizing. He didn't expect that today she ate outside without informing him and made him wait here for a long time.
Mo Cangyan was about to get angry, but suddenly he was stunned when he thought that his emotions were actually controlled by this woman Feng Xiyao.
Thinking of this, he suppressed his anger and calmly picked up the bowl: "If you don't come back, there will be no one to compete with me for food!"
But looking at the food on the table, Mo Cangyan, who was originally a little hungry, did not eat much. After drinking a bowl of porridge, he stood up with a sullen face and walked towards the study.
When he reached the door, he said coldly: "Today's food is too bad. I don't want to see this food again next time!"
Eunuch Hai: Didn’t you enjoy the delicious food a few days ago?
Mo Cangyan read a few memorials in the study. Seeing that Feng Xiyao was taking a long time to grind ink for him, he stood up and walked towards the room, wanting to see what she was doing.
When Feng Xiyao heard the door open, she subconsciously hid the treasure given by the Queen Mother behind her.
Seeing that she looked guilty, Mo Cangyan walked towards her.
Feng Xiyao immediately stood up and stood in front of the person who came: "Hehehe, Your Majesty, are you here to ask me to grind ink for you? I can go over now."
“…”
Feng Xiyao's eyes were crooked as she smiled, and Mo Cangyan glanced behind her.
"Is the Queen hiding something that I cannot know?"
Feng Xiyao shook her head and waved her hands: "No, aren't all the things I have the Emperor's?"
Mo Cangyan didn't believe she would be so honest, so he walked over and pulled her away, then pulled back the quilt, and saw some jade ruyi and gold and silver jewelry...
He frowned, picked up an exquisite phoenix swing, looked at Feng Xiyao who was looking painful behind him, and didn't understand what was so good about hiding it.
"The Queen likes these?"
Feng Xiyao nodded guiltily.
【Nonsense, who doesn’t like gold, silver and jewelry! 】
Mo Cangyan chuckled, put the things down, and said nonchalantly: "Since the Queen likes it, there happens to be plenty in the warehouse. I will ask Zhou Fuhai to send some gold leaves to you tomorrow!"
“…”
Feng Xiyao widened her eyes in disbelief. The surprise came so suddenly that she was stunned for a moment.
When she reacted, her eyes sparkled: "Okay, okay, thank you, Your Majesty!"
She was afraid that he would go back on his word, so she held out her hand to him and said, "Make a promise. You won't lie to me. I'll have Eunuch Hai deliver it to me tomorrow!"
Looking at her outstretched hand, Mo Cangyan said unhappily: "I am the emperor, my words are binding!"
“…”
Feng Xiyao didn't believe it and kept her hands raised.
Mo Cangyan reached out his hand helplessly to shake her hand, but the moment their hands touched, he suddenly woke up and realized why he was doing such a childish thing with this woman.
But before he could finish his thought, Feng Xiyao had already pressed her saliva-stained thumb on his thumb...
After it was over, Mo Cangyan wiped the thumb that Feng Xiyao had touched with a handkerchief in disgust.
Feng Xiyao happily ran to tidy up her baby.
…
The next morning.
When Feng Xiyao got up, she didn't see Mo Cangyan. After asking Ruyi, she found out that he had gone to attend the morning court.
She opened the door and walked out, and saw a little eunuch walking towards her holding a box.
"Empress, this is what the Emperor ordered. Eunuch Hai is busy, so I have to bring it to you!"
"Thank the Emperor for me!"
Feng Xiyao didn't expect the tyrant to act so quickly. With excitement, she took the box with trembling hands, then turned around and ran into the house, quickly closing the door, all in one go!
She put the box on the bed and slowly opened it. She saw a whole box full of gold leaves. She excitedly picked it up and took a bite.
"It's true, it's true. The tyrant didn't lie to me! This heavy weight is simply too conscientious."
[Congratulations to the host, your health has increased to 18%]
A mechanical voice sounded in her mind again, and Feng Xiyao opened her mouth wide: "What kind of shit luck am I having today, to get two surprises at once!"
Seeing that her health points had begun to increase slowly, she thought that she should work hard to save money, and after Da Xia was ruled by the original male protagonist, she would take the money and run away.
Thinking about the treasure chest that had been upgraded to 30%, she swallowed and said, "It's almost there."
Feng Xiyao packed the treasures and gold leaves she got from the Queen Mother together and wanted to hide them under the bed, but she was afraid that they would be stolen. If she put them under the pillow, she was afraid that the tyrant would find them.
Finally, she thought about it and decided to wait until night time, when everyone was asleep, and then dig a hole in the yard to hide in!
"That's a great idea!"
She nodded in satisfaction.
…
When she came out again, she couldn't hide the smile on her face and shouted to Ruyi who was trimming flowers and plants.
"Good luck! Today is a double happiness day. Prepare more meat!"
Ruyi was stunned for a moment, then her eyes looked at Feng Xiyao's belly. Thinking that the emperor had been staying in Fengchun Palace these days, the scissors in her hand fell to the ground instantly.
