As the night grew darker, the playful bed curtains fluttered for half the night before finally closing.
——
The next morning, the entire Xuanwang Palace was waiting for Wu to agree to leave the cold palace and be promoted.
The strange thing is that since King Xuan received the news yesterday, until noon today, King Xuan only allowed Wu to leave the cold palace freely and arranged for several maids to serve in the cold palace.
There was no other action.
For a time, the other concubines in the palace were all wondering whether Prince Xuan disliked the prince.
It was hard to justify this, as His Majesty favored the Crown Prince, and everyone in Xuanzhao knew it.
In the Imperial Garden, there was a lot of noise and everyone gathered together to discuss.
At this time, Mrs. Wu in the cold palace was also a little restless.
She had hoped that the baby in her belly could survive, but now King Xuan only sent maids and imperial doctors to take care of her. He did not say anything about taking her out of the cold palace, but just let her leave the cold palace freely.
There was no such thing as when the imperial physician diagnosed Empress Xuan as being pregnant with a prince, and she happily rewarded ministers and held a palace banquet.
Could it be that His Majesty is worried that she has offended the Crown Princess and is afraid that if he takes her out of the cold palace, the Crown Prince will not agree, so he doesn't even come to look at her?
Isn't she carrying your Majesty's baby in her belly?
Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unwilling, will Your Majesty just ignore her?
Behind the carved screen, the maid Xiao Dai placed the food on the table, bowed her head and said, "Son, serve the food."
Wu Yaying curled the corners of his mouth in self-mockery. It wasn't that he completely ignored her. At least he sent some maids to take care of her.
I got up and sat on a wooden chair, looking at the food on the wooden table. In the celadon bowl was a mushroom and chicken soup. In the food box on the other side were steaming yam and wolfberry porridge, sweet soup, and bird's nest porridge...
Wu Da Ying suddenly chuckled. The diet had also changed. It seemed that His Majesty still cared about the baby in her belly. But why didn't he take her out of the cold palace?
Wu Da Ying's eyes turned slightly. Could it be that Qi was trying to protect her and the prince in her belly?
That's why he treated her like this openly. So, as long as she gave birth to the baby safely, wouldn't she have the same status as Queen Xuan?
After all, His Majesty is obedient to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and the child in her belly will surely be the same.
Even if she is not as good as Empress Xuan, she will still be the Imperial Noble Consort.
Thinking of this, Wu promised to curl his lips and smile, picked up the wooden chopsticks, picked up the steamed dumpling and took a small bite, "Xiao Dai, today's meal is especially delicious."
"Hey, eat more. I'll tell the imperial kitchen to serve you dishes based on today's meal next time." Xiao Dai smiled and picked up a few more shrimp dumplings for Wu Da Ying and put them in her porcelain bowl.
Wu agreed and smiled, looking forward to the future more and more.
"I have received your approval. His Majesty has ordered me to speak to you alone." Guard Qu pushed open the dilapidated palace door, knelt on one knee on the ground, and spoke respectfully.
Upon seeing this, Xiao Dai bowed to the other maids serving her and left.
The palace door was closed, and Guard Qu stood up, walked behind Wu Da Ying, hugged her, put his hand on her belly, and whispered, "Mine?"
Wu Da Ying took a bite of the shrimp and said nothing.
Guard Qu kissed her cheek and said in a low voice, "I think it should be mine too, after all, Your Majesty..."
Before he could finish the rest of his words, Wu agreed and pushed him away.
"Your Majesty may suddenly come to the cold palace at any time, so you should come less often during this period." Wu Da Ying said gritting his teeth.
Guard Qu lay down on the bed, yawned and said, "The Crown Prince has caught a cold. Your Majesty will go to accompany the Crown Prince after the court session. He has no time to come to the cold palace."
