Chapter 127 The Queen Mother ordered
In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.
The weather is getting better day by day.
Flowers are blooming all over the ground and butterflies are flying.
Zhang Chengyan walked slowly into Zhaochun Palace without disturbing anyone.
He saw at a glance that Bai Wutong was reading, and every word he said was clear and pleasant.
After every word, she would look down at her belly, with a smile on her face all the time.
A faint fragrance wafts over.
The quiet atmosphere instantly calmed Zhang Chengyan's heart.
Sure enough, only this place is the pure land.
He walked quickly forward and covered Bai Wutong's eyes, just like he did when he was young.
"Your Majesty, it must be you." Bai Wutong said cheerfully, "I guessed right. You should take your hand away."
Zhang Chengyan let go and hugged her from behind, resting his chin on top of her furry head. "What book are you reading?"
"I am reading Chu Ci."
"Yes, I will read it."
Zhang Chengyan took the book and sat aside.
Bai Wutong leaned in his arms and picked up a candied fruit and put it into his mouth.
The sun is shining outside.
The two of them leaned on each other, quietly feeling the warmth of the moment.
After reading one article, Zhang Chengyan lowered his head and kissed Bai Wutong's forehead, "I will come again in the evening."
"Well, the emperor's business is important. It doesn't matter to me." Bai Wutong hooked his fingers and whispered, "I still hope you can come."
Zhang Chengyan was amused by her, "Okay, I will definitely come."
Lunch is over.
Zhaochun Palace returned to silence again.
On the way to the Yangxin Palace, Zhang Chengyan was still thinking about the pajamas that Bai Wutong gave him last time.
After the child was born and Zhaopin recovered, he wore this pajamas to Zhaochun Palace.
Suddenly, a pleasant voice came from the front.
"Your servant Wen Ruyun greets His Majesty."
Zhang Chengyan came to his senses and saw two people standing in front of him.
The woman in the lead had a plump figure and was 80% similar to Wen Chuyun. Even their voices were almost the same. A palace maid stood beside her.
Wen Ruyun took only a glance, then lowered her eyes and obediently stepped aside to let Zhang Chengyan pass first.
Zhang Chengyan thought of Wen Chuyun and said, "Take good care of Concubine Wen."
"Yes, I will take good care of my sister, Your Majesty, please rest assured."
Wen Ruyun bowed and saluted, then suddenly tilted and fell towards him, "Ah - Your Majesty!"
Zhang Chengyan immediately took a step back to prevent her from falling on him.
He knew very well how heavy these concubines were.
Wen Ruyun fell heavily to the ground and gasped in pain.
She never expected that Zhang Chengyan would turn a blind eye to it. That would have been fine, but he even took a step back. Did he think of her as a plague god?
Shouldn't I reach out and hold her waist?
Zhang Chengyan had a blank expression on his face. “Be careful next time, Wang Decai, let’s go.”
"Yes." Wang Decai glanced at Wen Ruyun.
Who can't see this little trick?
It would have been bad enough if she had pretended to fall, but she had to fall towards the Emperor.
It is really Sima Zhao's intention, and everyone knows it.
After a long while, Wen Ruyun finally stood up with the help of the palace maid.
Her face was grim, and she stared at the direction where Zhang Chengyan left, "Is the emperor not interested in me?"
The palace maid pursed her lips. Isn’t it obvious?
Wen Ruyun took a deep breath and suppressed the humiliation in his heart, "Let's go back."
Halfway through the journey, she stopped and said, "No, let's go to Yongshou Palace."
The weather is hot.
The Queen Mother was obese and didn't want to move at all.
The nanny next to her was holding a fan and never stopped.
"Where's Fubao?"
"Reporting to Her Majesty, Fubao has gone to play in the back again."
"It's been very playful lately." The queen mother picked up the herbal tea and took a sip, but it still tasted hot.
It's already so hot in June. I'm afraid this summer will be more unbearable than in previous years.
The Queen Mother is already thinking about which summer resort to go to.
"Empress Dowager, Wen Ruyun is here."
"Let her in."
Wen Ruyun stepped into the palace and said, "I pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
"Well, have you seen the emperor?"
"I did, but..." Wen Ruyun lowered her head even lower, "The Emperor doesn't seem to like his subject."
The Queen Mother was not surprised at all. "The Emperor's heart is now with Concubine Zhao, so of course he is not interested in you. Back then, your sister did not get much attention from the Emperor. If it were not for me, how could she be favored? I'm afraid she would still be in the cold palace now."
Wen Ruyun knelt on the ground, "Empress Dowager, I dare not have any extravagant hopes. How about... just take care of my sister wholeheartedly?"
"Hmph, stop playing tricks in front of me. If you want me to help you, just ask directly, don't use these roundabout ways." The Queen Mother put down the cold tea, "Since Concubine Wen was pregnant before, I will help you. Wait outside the palace tonight."
Wen Ruyun thanked him and left in a panic.
The nanny next to him whispered, "The emperor has only favored Concubine Zhao recently and has never been to other places. Wen Ruyun doesn't look smart either. Will she disgust the emperor?"
Speaking of this, the Queen Mother became angry, "That Concubine Zhao is pregnant with the heir, and she has been monopolizing the emperor for more than a month. If she had favored someone else during this time, someone else might have become pregnant with the heir. I must intervene. This cannot go on."
She asked the nanny to come closer and whisper, "Send someone to replace the incense. When it's almost done, push Wen Ruyun in..."
"Yes, I will do it right away."
Night falls.
The palace was silent.
Zhang Chengyan moved back to the bedroom and lay down.
The candle went out.
I don’t know how much time passed.
Zhang Chengyan tossed and turned.
I feel so hot and want to do something...
He closed his eyes and forced himself to sleep.
In a daze.
Something cold was moving across my body.
Zhang Chengyan grabbed it and looked down.
Under the moonlight.
Wen Ruyun looked up at him and called him in the most pleasant voice, "Your Majesty."
"Princess Wen?" Zhang Chengyan was startled and subconsciously thought of Wen Chuyun's terrifying face.
Isn't her face broken? How come you recovered so quickly?
"I am Ruyun." Wen Ruyun said as she approached him with a charming look in her eyes. "It was the Empress Dowager who asked me to come here. Please love Ruyun, Your Majesty."
Rich aroma.
A plump body.
A face that is 80% similar to Wen Chuyun.
No matter how you look at it, he is not even a bit better than Bai Wutong.
Zhang Chengyan kicked Wen Ruyun to the ground without any hesitation, "How dare you!"
Wen Ruyun fell heavily and knelt down in fear, her long hair scattered on the ground, "Your Majesty, it was the Queen Mother who asked me to come here."
Zhang Chengyan thought about it carefully and understood.
The reason why he felt so uncomfortable tonight must be the Queen Mother's doing.
This is not the first time that the Queen Mother has done such a thing. She previously openly sent tonic soup and bribed the imperial kitchen. Now she even dares to secretly put drugs in the food. She is becoming more and more lawless!
If I don't care anymore, she might do anything!
Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, Wen Ruyun became even more frightened, "Your Majesty..."
"Shut up!" Zhang Chengyan pointed outside the door, "Get out and stand outside. Wang Decai, come in."
"Yes, the servant is here."
Zhang Chengyan suppressed his anger and said, "Go, call that actor over. I want to ask him how the progress is now!"
