How can a palace maid have such a noble and natural temperament?
Even the previous deposed queen was not as elegant as Concubine Jing now.
Many people wondered if the confidence came from giving birth to twins and the emperor.
But that's not true. The daughter they carefully raised may not necessarily have such a naturally dignified and generous temperament.
This was the first time that Concubine Jing appeared in public. Facing the palace full of concubines, royal family members, nobles, civil and military officials and their families, she did not show any fear at all and was generally calm, as if she was born to be superior and in power.
Bei Lingyao was already very reserved, but her elaborate attire and graceful and dignified demeanor still outshone all the other concubines.
In order not to be outdone by Bei Lingyao, the concubines all put on gorgeous makeup and dressed up.
Each of them is charming and beautiful.
It looked like a room full of fairies, which made Bei Lingyao look even more dignified, graceful and elegant.
The concubines also realized this, and their hearts sank, and they all regretted dressing up too much.
And they obviously didn't take the lesson Bei Lingyao taught them last time to heart.
They were all putting perfume and powder on their bodies. The smell of one person alone was not a big deal, but when they all gathered together, Emperor Yanxing sneezed continuously when he passed by.
His face immediately turned dark.
When the ministers saw this, they shook their heads inwardly, feeling sorry that their daughters and nieces had entered the palace for many years without making any progress and were outdone by a woman who was originally a palace maid.
I feel so disappointed in myself and feel really bad.
The royal family and the court officials nodded secretly to Bei Lingyao, saying that she did not disgrace the status of the eldest prince and princess.
Although Concubine Jing gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, they did not recommend that the twins be raised with their biological mother if it was too embarrassing.
Some of them had originally thought of impeaching Concubine Jing if she failed to show up in public, but now they have given up the idea.
The one-month-old twins, a boy and a girl, were raised to be plump and white, and looked much better than when they were born.
Emperor Yanxing looked at the ugly baby he had given birth to and found that he had changed drastically. For a moment he even wondered if he had been replaced.
But his son looks like Concubine Jing, and his daughter looks like him.
Emperor Yanxing was both satisfied and dissatisfied. Why did his own child look more like Concubine Jing? Was it because he didn't spend enough time with the child?
But he was really afraid of the child's crying, which was like a devilish sound.
Thinking that it had been a month since he last fled and hadn't seen his two children, Emperor Yanxing's expression softened.
"Concubine Jing has taken good care of the eldest prince and princess."
When Emperor Yanxing said this, Bei Lingyao smiled faintly, "Thank you for your affirmation, Your Majesty. The eldest prince and princess are very well behaved and easy to raise."
"Really? Don't they cry often?" Emperor Yanxing asked in confusion.
"He only cries when he's hungry or has to pee. He's usually very well behaved."
"I'll give you a hug."
Emperor Yanxing suddenly had an idea, so Bei Lingyao handed the eldest prince to Emperor Yanxing and held him in her arms, correcting his posture.
The emperor and his concubines lived in harmony, which made the other concubines jealous. Court officials and others also felt that the emperor and Concubine Jing were a good match.
"Don't you think Concubine Jing and the Emperor look like a perfect couple?"
"Yes, yes, that's right. I think so too."
Once someone started talking, more people followed suit.
Some people disagree, but they cannot refute it.
Emperor Yanxing finally felt the joy of being a father. He carried the eldest prince to the side of the royal family, and Bei Lingyao followed, carrying the eldest princess.
"Uncle, this is my eldest prince, and this is my eldest princess."
"The eldest prince is heroic and extraordinary, and the eldest princess is beautiful and lovely."
"The eldest prince and princess are like gods descended from heaven. They are a blessing to Dajing. May God bless Dajing."
…
The two children were praised in various ways, and Emperor Yanxing felt proud of it.
Bei Lingyao looked at him and didn't think he was a child-phobe.
But as soon as the full moon banquet was over, Emperor Yanxing kept holding the baby and did not let go throughout the whole process, until he returned to Fuhua Palace and his son urinated on him.
Emperor Yanxing's body stiffened. "Hurry and take him away."
As soon as Bei Lingyao took her son in her arms, Emperor Yanxing disappeared.
Bei Lingyao: ...It’s hard to comment.
Everyone thought that Emperor Yanxing would stay overnight at Fuhua Palace for the twins' full-month banquet.
But it didn't.
Only Xiu Fu sent the names of two children.
Zhao Junluo, Zhao Junyue
Bei Lingyao was satisfied with these two names.
As for Emperor Yanxing, it would not affect her whether he came or not.
The concubines were also upset. They didn't want to see Concubine Jing favored, but the emperor didn't go to Fuhua Palace, and he still didn't go to their palace.
Bei Lingyao is living a comfortable life, raising children, planting seeds, practicing martial arts and spiritual consciousness.
At three months old, he can roll over, sit up, roll over, crawl, and stand up and walk at nine months old.
Eleven months passed very smoothly.
"Mother, mother"
The adorable twin boy and girl walked towards her slowly and gently, and when they were almost there, they suddenly rushed and threw themselves into her arms.
The two kids bumped into each other and neither of them gave way.
Bei Lingyao was surrounded by women and smiled like a flower.
In the dark, someone was watching this scene quietly. He could have done it openly, but he chose to do the peeping.
Bei Lingyao just thought that the man was mentally ill and pretended he didn't exist.
"Your Majesty, the eldest prince and princess can now call me mother."
Emperor Yanxing pursed his lips and remained silent, his gaze fixed on the two adorable children not far away.
Children change every day, and they are different now than when they were little.
His gaze fell on Bei Lingyao again. She was obviously not a stunning beauty and could only be considered average in the harem, but the more he looked at her, the more he couldn't take his eyes off her.
On the contrary, although the other concubines in the harem were beautiful, none of them had an appearance that he could remember.
What a witch.
Bei Lingyao had no idea that Emperor Yanxing was secretly complaining about her as a witch.
