"I wonder if Qianqian will like it."
The Empress Dowager is now extremely determined to survive.
I'm afraid I'll never hear the little princess's sweet voice again.
She glanced at Consort Jin's belly.
I didn't hear anything.
The Empress Dowager listened carefully again.
I still didn't hear anything.
Is the little princess really going to ignore me?
Are you really angry?
The more the Empress Dowager thought about it, the more flustered she became.
My little princess, please don't ignore Grandma!
Sudden.
That familiar sweet voice is back!
I can't see it! I really want to know what kind of pink dress my grandmother made for me!
I thought my grandmother didn't like me anymore, but it turns out her affection for me hasn't diminished at all! I'm so happy!
[Grandmother, I love you! Mwah!]
The Empress Dowager breathed a sigh of relief.
Sure enough, my little granddaughter isn't that petty.
I was just a little angry for a tiny bit.
With a little coaxing, she'll be that happy little princess again.
However, I really need to be careful what I say in the future.
Don't make the little princess angry again!
Consort Jin looked tired.
The Empress Dowager then said, "Consort Jin, you must have wasted some energy talking to me! Why don't you rest here with me at noon today?"
"Your Majesty, I dare not do that; it would be against the rules."
"It's alright, this is my decree, and no one else dares to say anything."
"Thank you, Empress Dowager."
[Mommy needs to rest! But I'm so bored!]
I wish someone could tell me a story right now!
When Ruoqiu helped Consort Jin prepare to go to the side hall.
The Empress Dowager spoke immediately.
"Consort Jin, you may rest here in my main hall."
"Your Majesty, this... this is inappropriate."
"It's alright, I'll just keep Qianqian company and talk to her."
"Then, I'll just sit here."
“You’re pregnant, you need to lie down to rest properly, Ruoqiu.”
"yes."
Ruoqiu immediately came over and helped the Empress Dowager up.
The Empress Dowager sat down on a recliner to the side.
Ruoqiu then helped Consort Jin sit on the Empress Dowager's soft couch.
Consort Jin was still flattered and felt very uneasy.
"Consort Jin, you should rest. There's no need to worry."
After the Empress Dowager gave the order.
Consort Jin did as she was told.
Because I was genuinely sleepy.
Consort Jin quickly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Ruoqiu whispered to the Empress Dowager.
"This servant has never seen the Empress Dowager show such affection to the concubines in the harem."
The Empress Dowager smiled.
"I don't feel like myself anymore. If it were someone else, I would at most send them tonics and instruct the servants to take good care of them. Occasionally, after paying my respects, I would let them rest in the side hall. I have never allowed any pregnant concubine to rest in my main hall."
“Even when the Empress Dowager knew it was a prince, the concubines did not receive such treatment. Now, the little princess’s mother is favored by the Empress Dowager.”
The Empress Dowager smiled.
"Ruoqiu, you must have heard of the bond between mother and daughter, but have you ever heard of the bond between grandmother and granddaughter?"
"That must be a bond developed after birth, right?"
"Yes, but my little granddaughter was already connected to me before she was even born!"
"In that case, the Empress Dowager and the little princess are very fortunate. I imagine the little princess will be very fond of the Empress Dowager after she is born."
"Yes! Ruoqiu, please bring me the fan."
After Ruoqiu handed over the jade fan.
The Empress Dowager began to gently fan Consort Jin.
Ruoqiu was surprised that the Empress Dowager would lower herself so much to treat a mere concubine.
Even the former empress, who was pregnant with a prince, never received such treatment.
Consort Jin, who had no family background and was pregnant with a little princess, was actually favored by the Empress Dowager.
In this deep palace, a concubine's fundamental duty is to behave properly and fulfill her responsibilities.
The Empress Dowager would not lower herself to take care of her for this reason.
So it's because of this unborn little princess.
Just as the Empress Dowager said.
Even before the little princess was born, she was already connected to her grandmother.
That's why the Empress Dowager liked her so much.
"Qianqian, what story will your Grandmother tell you? How about Grandmother recites a poem for you?"
"A loving mother's thread in her hand—"
【I won't listen! I can recite all of these by heart! Isn't the next line "The clothes on the traveler's back"?】
The Empress Dowager was amazed that the little princess knew this!
Could it be that the God of Literature has descended to earth?!
If that's true, then her little granddaughter is sure to have great talent in the future!
I want to hear the Empress Dowager's story of palace intrigue! I want to know how she rose from a lowly concubine to become a champion of palace power struggles!
The Empress Dowager was startled by this thought.
Is this girl planning to start learning palace intrigue from the womb?
Within the depths of the palace, intrigue and backstabbing were inevitable.
However, this is something that is gradually acquired through exposure and observation.
No child learns palace intrigue before they are even born!
However, since it is a required course.
It's fine to learn it in advance; it'll help my granddaughter become more discerning and prevent her from being harmed.
then.
The Empress Dowager immediately began to tell the little princess about her years of palace intrigue and power struggles.
"Musk, peach kernel, safflower, miscarriage, framing, spices, seduction, sisterly betrayal, blood test, struggle for the throne, seizure of the throne—these are all things that my grandmother saw and experienced."
