Madman, really a madman.
It's terrible. Isn't he afraid of being criticized for doing this?
"No one said anything? It seems that none of you, my dear ministers, have any objections? Well, then let's adjourn the court."
He smoothed his sleeves and turned to leave.
…………
After he left the court, he changed his appearance. With a smile on his face, he took off the court clothes in the cage and put on only ordinary clothes.
"Is the Queen awake yet?"
"To answer your Majesty, the Queen has just woken up and said she wants to see you."
"good."
"Has Wanwan had her meal yet?"
"Not yet, waiting for you to come together." Tang Wan smiled and placed her hand on his palm.
Chi Yu was successfully soothed from his bad mood by her words.
He couldn't help but laugh, but his tone was a little blaming: "Next time, you don't have to wait for me. Just eat when you're hungry. Why wait for me? What if you starve yourself?"
"I'm not a child. I just, I just want to be with you."
I swear to God, Chi Yu has tried very hard to control the corners of his mouth, but he still can't help it.
"Okay, let's have dinner together."
"Are you unhappy?" She touched his cheek, looking worried.
He was stunned for a moment. He thought that his expression was not obvious, but Tang Wan could feel his aura and knew that he was in a low mood at the moment.
"If you're unhappy about anything, tell me."
"No, I'm not unhappy at all, I just..."
"Is it because of me?"
"No, no, this matter has nothing to do with you. It's just that group of old pedants in the court. Sigh, it's hard to get rid of them. Nothing else, eat first, you must be hungry."
Tang Wan wanted to say something, but her mouth was blocked by the porridge he fed her.
She wanted to hit him, but when she looked at his handsome face, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
Alas, beauty is really misleading. Sometimes, it is not a good thing for a husband to be too handsome.
…………
Time flies, and more than two months have passed. Chi Yu has been doing the same thing every day: going to court to review memorials and accompanying Tang Wan.
Since that day, no one dared to mention the selection of concubines to him. Someone originally wanted to make a fuss about his lack of children, but was told that the concubine was pregnant.
Now I really don't have any excuses at all. I am really like a dumb person swallowing bitter herbs, unable to express my pain.
Tang Wan was very curious why the Queen Mother and so many others had not summoned her. She had been in the palace for more than two months. According to common sense, even if her relationship with her son was not good, she would want to see her daughter-in-law.
But she knew that Chi Yu had a bad relationship with the Queen Mother, so she would not ask these questions proactively and embarrass herself.
"Sister, look at this!" He took out a delicate little gadget from behind him.
"Little rabbit!"
Her eyes lit up and she couldn't let it go.
"Yes, the little rabbit I carved for you in Qingshui County was too ugly. I made this one for you again. I hope you like it."
"I like it. I like it very much. I also liked the one you made for me in Qingshui County last time."
Chi Yu was pleased with her words, and his face was full of smiles when he was reviewing memorials.
"Chi Yu!"
She suddenly screamed, startling Chi Yu, who quickly ran to her side: "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
She stared at him with bright eyes, grabbed his big hand and placed it on her belly.
"Say hello to your father."
He clearly felt something moving in his palm.
His eyes suddenly widened: "It's moving! It's moving!"
"He likes you and is saying hello to you."
Chi Yu suddenly became overjoyed. He pressed his cheek against Tang Wan's bulging belly and earnestly admonished the unborn child: "You have to be nice to your mother, okay?"
"If the emperor knows that you've been bothering your mother, he'll spank you if you find out. Do you understand?"
No movement.
He stood up, placed his big hand gently against hers, and called out twice in a low voice, but there was still no response.
"Sister~ Why is my son ignoring me~"
"He hasn't been born yet, how can he possibly understand what you are saying?"
He looked proud and said, "This is your child and mine. He is very talented and can understand."
As if to echo his words, she felt the baby in her belly move again.
Chi Yu pressed on: "You heard everything just now, right? If you don't obey, I'll spank you."
There was no movement again.
Chi Yu looked frustrated, and Tang Wan laughed out loud: "Your son only listens to good things and can't listen to bad things."
"It hasn't been born yet, how can it be a son? Maybe it's a girl."
His daughter is sweet and soft, how wonderful it is. When he thinks of the little glutinous rice dumpling who looks like Tang Wan and calls him father in a soft and sweet voice, he feels extremely happy.
Wow, I feel happy just thinking about it.
Just when the atmosphere was warm and cozy, the eunuch's announcement broke the wonderful atmosphere.
"Report—"
"Come in, what's going on?"
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager said that she wants to see the Empress..." The young eunuch answered cautiously, fearing that he would displease Chi Yu.
What a joke! Everyone in the palace knows that His Majesty and the Empress Dowager have a bad relationship, and now he is asked to report it. He doesn't get any good things, but gets involved in all the bad things.
"Tell her that the Queen is unwell and will not be seen."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Chi Yu frowned: "What else?"
"Her Majesty said that if you don't want to cause trouble at the Queen's coronation ceremony, you should go see her."
