Chapter 534: Concubine Yun’s Response
Murong Li was inspired by the South-to-North Water Diversion Project mentioned in the book in Su Yue's space study when he saw it.
Xifeng Kingdom suffers natural disasters almost every year, either drought or flood.
Can’t he also do the South-to-North Water Diversion Project?
Xifeng Country has plenty of manpower, so he will make use of it.
The emperor was speechless after hearing what Murong Li said, and the anger in his heart gradually subsided. He looked at Murong Li and felt that this son was indeed more suitable to be the emperor.
He is still narrow-minded. He only cares about himself, while his son only cares about the interests of the country.
The emperor was no longer angry, and immediately sent the ninth eunuch to the palaces of the concubines to reprimand them, asking them to behave themselves and use whatever was allocated to them, and not to buy more out of their own pockets if it was not enough.
If anyone dares to cause trouble again, she will be banished to the cold palace.
Those concubines were frightened by the Ninth Eunuch and immediately gave up their thoughts. No matter how many complaints they had in their hearts, they dared not act rashly and could only endure it silently in their hearts.
Things are different now. Murong Li and his wife are in power now. What dare they do?
Su Yue felt relieved after hearing this, and Hongye Hongyu brought dinner just in time.
"Didn't you have dinner?"
Su Yue asked as she looked at the large amount of food on the table.
"Well, I'm waiting for you to eat together. We haven't eaten together for a long time."
Murong Li helped Su Yue sit down and then served the meal in front of her: "Eat quickly, you must be very hungry at this late hour."
Su Yue nodded, picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
Su Yue ate two large bowls of rice and a lot of vegetables during this meal, half more than before.
Su Yue touched her belly, which was only a little over a month old. How could she eat so much? Her appetite at this time should be no different from usual. Could it be that she was pregnant with a foodie?
Seeing her silly look, Murong Li immediately put down his chopsticks, walked over, put his arm around her shoulders and asked, "Yuer, what's wrong? Are you feeling sick?"
Su Yue shook her head: "It's nothing, I just ate half more than usual, and I feel a little confused."
"Oh, this is normal. Pregnant women tend to eat a lot. Don't worry, Yue'er."
Murong Li breathed a sigh of relief, as he had just scared her. Then he patted her gently and comforted her in a warm voice.
Su Yue rolled her eyes at him. What a fool! How could he eat the meat in his stomach when it was only the size of a fingernail?
However, seeing that he was worried, she kept silent.
The next day, Murong Li entered the palace and went to Xihe Palace first. Concubine Yun saw that he walked with ease and smiled, and asked him, "What are you so happy about?"
Concubine Yun has been looking good these days and her health has recovered well. She is almost recovered now. After breakfast, she is looking at the changes made by Su Yue.
"Mother, your son greets you!"
Murong Li still greeted Concubine Yun first, and then said, "Your son has come to tell you the good news."
Murong Li finished speaking and looked at the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace. Seeing this, Concubine Yun immediately dismissed the palace maids and eunuchs, leaving only Nanny Chen alone in the palace. She glanced at Murong Li and said, "Tell me, what's the good news?"
Murong Li then came to Concubine Yun and whispered to her, "Your daughter-in-law is pregnant. It's been over a month."
"What?"
Concubine Yun looked up at Murong Li in surprise and said, "You are telling the truth. Are you lying to me?"
She said a few days ago that she didn't want to have children, but after not seeing her for a few days, she's pregnant?
"How could I lie to you about something like this? It's true. Yue'er was diagnosed only yesterday. I went home too late last night and didn't come to report it to you. I came this morning."
After hearing Murong Li's words, Concubine Yun's expression suddenly changed. Her cold face even showed a hint of smile. She happily took Nanny Chen's hand and said, "Nanny, I'm going to be a grandmother."
Nanny Chen shook Concubine Yun's hand, feeling delighted. She immediately knelt down and said, "This old servant congratulates Your Majesty. Your Majesty has finally gotten what you wished for."
The queen had been looking forward to becoming a grandmother day and night, and now her wish had finally come true.
Concubine Yun helped Nanny Chen up, her mouth wide open with laughter. She then turned to look at Murong Li and said, "After you finish court, come to Mother and bring some things back with Yue'er."
Murong Li blinked his eyes. It was the first time he saw Concubine Yun so happy. Her smile was so sincere and bright. It was also the first time he called her Yue'er. He was so happy that he nodded quickly. "Your son will definitely come. Yue'er will definitely like it when she sees you. However, it is not appropriate for Yue'er to leave the house now. Wait until that day and let Yue'er come to thank you."
There is no son in the world who does not want his wife and mother to live in harmony.
Although he and Concubine Yun were not close, they were mother and son after all, and Murong Li still hoped to get his mother's love.
Concubine Yun waved her hand and said, "No need. I have stayed in the palace for too long. It is time for me to go out for a walk. When I am well again, I will go see Yue'er in person."
"That's fine, as long as mother is happy."
Seeing Concubine Yun like this, who looked like a normal woman, Murong Li was happy in his heart.
After the mother and son talked for a while, Murong Li went to court.
"My lady, you are very good like this. This is the way you should be."
Chen Momo looked at Yun Fei like this and said with relief in his heart.
For so many years, Concubine Yun has not acted like a normal woman, and Nanny Chen is very worried.
Concubine Yun sighed and said, "I am obsessed with it. During the time I was sick, I figured everything out. Some things have happened and there is no way to escape them. Now that Yue'er is pregnant with my grandson, I can no longer live in the muddle-headed way I did before. I have to take care of the child for them."
Nanny Chen was so happy that she burst into tears. She nodded repeatedly, "That's right. It's good that Your Majesty has come to terms with it. You did the right thing."
"Mammy, please go to my storeroom and prepare all the things that are suitable for pregnant women. Li'er will come and get them later."
Nanny Chen wiped away her tears, her face wrinkled a little deeper with a smile. She bowed to Concubine Yun and said, "I will do it right away, Your Majesty, don't worry."
Concubine Yun nodded at her and looked outside the palace. There was a glint in her eyes, unlike the stagnant water in her eyes as before.
As for Murong Li, after the court session, he went straight to the imperial study and told the emperor that Su Yue was pregnant.
"Hahahaha... I finally have a grandson."
After hearing this, the emperor laughed loudly, rubbed his hands happily, and patted Murong Li's shoulders hard.
No one doesn't want to have many children and grandchildren when he gets old, but he is about to be buried, and he doesn't even have a grandson or a granddaughter.
Descendants are the hope of the Murong family.
"Oh, by the way, how's Jun Wushuang doing?"
Thinking of his grandson, the emperor suddenly remembered Murong Gan's concubine.
Although she was demoted to a commoner, the baby in her belly was Murong's bloodline, his own grandson.
