Chapter 74 Don’t you agree?
Jin Zhi strode out of Yaoguang Palace.
Wang Decai bent forward, looked at Jin Zhi's cold expression, and did not dare to ask more questions.
Forget it, let the emperor ask.
Lord Jin has been on the battlefield killing enemies all year round, and he has such a strong murderous aura that people would feel terrified even if they were close to him.
The two of them arrived at the Yangxin Palace one after the other.
The news of the smashing and looting in Yaoguang Palace had already reached Zhang Chengyan's ears.
"What did you say to Concubine Jin that made her so angry?"
Jin Zhi bowed and saluted, "Your Majesty, Concubine Jin wanted me to find out some folk remedies to help with pregnancy, but I refused."
Zhang Chengyan nodded, "Don't trust folk remedies, most of them are harmful to the body."
"I thought so too, but Concubine Jin couldn't get over it. She wanted nothing more than to bear a child for His Majesty. Now that she knew Concubine Zhao had a child, she was too sad to think of the child she didn't keep. She was even in so much pain that she didn't hesitate to hurt herself. It was I who told her that if she was really upset, she could just smash things to vent her anger, which was better than hurting herself."
After these words were spoken, Zhang Chengyan's expression softened.
He had been looking forward to the birth of that child, but unfortunately...
Jin Zhi made great contributions in protecting Bai Wutong this time. If it weren't for him, the royal heir might be in danger.
Now that he has come in person and said these words, it is reasonable for him to go and see Concubine Jin and comfort Jin Zhi.
"You don't have to worry too much. I will go to Yaoguang Palace to see her after I finish my government affairs."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Not long after Jin Zhi left, Zhang Chengyan changed his clothes, called Wang Decai, and went to Yaoguang Palace together.
The inside had been cleaned at this time, but the Ministry of Internal Affairs had not yet sent in new ones, so it looked bare.
When Jin Weige heard that Zhang Chengyan had arrived, she immediately wiped away her tears and came to greet him, "Your Majesty."
"No need to be so polite. I heard that you've been in a bad mood recently."
Jin Weige knew that it must be Jin Zhi trying to make up for it. "Yes, your concubine..."
"You don't have to dwell on the past. That child was unlucky, but we will have him in the future."
Jin Weige raised her head, her face full of surprise, "Your Majesty, I will ask someone to prepare it right away. Come on, prepare the bathing soup."
Zhang Chengyan understood that she had misunderstood.
I was just trying to comfort her, but I never thought of staying overnight.
Now that Bai Wutong's pregnancy is unstable, he can stay with other concubines, but not in Yaoguang Palace.
Besides...why does Concubine Jin look a little fatter than before?
In the past few days, Bai Wutong was by her side every day, and all he had in his eyes was that slender and delicate body.
Suddenly seeing such a huge thing, Zhang Chengyan was really overwhelmed.
Concubine Jin's face is beautiful, generous and bright, but compared with Concubine Zhao, it is still a little lacking and not delicate enough.
"Wei Ge, don't bother. I won't stay overnight."
The smile on Jin Weige's face suddenly stopped, "Your Majesty, aren't you staying?"
"No, Concubine Zhao is still pregnant, so let's wait for some time."
It’s Concubine Zhao again!
That bitch!
Jin Weige bit down the tip of her tongue hard, using the pain to ease her hatred so as not to reveal it.
She raised her arm and placed her chubby white hand on Zhang Chengyan's chest, "Your Majesty, Concubine Zhao is pregnant and cannot serve you, but I can. Besides, if Concubine Zhao is pregnant alone, it's not enough, don't you think?"
Zhang Chengyan took her hand away and said, "No, I just want to come and see you today and have dinner with you."
Jin Weige tried every possible means to persuade Zhang Chengyan to stay.
She appeared to be smiling like a flower, but in fact she hated Bai Wutong in her heart.
While going to get some tea, she held down the palace maid who came to serve her and slapped her twice.
The palace maids lowered their heads, not daring to speak or even make any sound.
"Bai Wutong, Bai Wutong, I must kill you!"
Xiyue stepped forward and served tea, "Your Majesty, please don't be angry. The Emperor is still waiting outside."
Jin Weige took a deep breath and suppressed the rage in his heart, "Go, get that thing."
"My lady, you are talking about the one from the Western Regions..."
"Yes, go get it now!"
Xiyue trotted over to get the things.
It was a white object the size of a fingernail, like a stone. Grinding it into powder and adding it to food would make people unable to control themselves. In the palace of the Western Regions, a princess once used this thing to compete for favor.
However, this item is extremely precious. It is taken out from deep-sea fish and is very difficult to find.
Jin Weige obtained it in his early years and had kept it aside. This was the first time he used it.
A moment later.
She held the tea and walked to Zhang Chengyan seductively, and the rich aroma hit his face.
"Your Majesty, please have some tea."
Zhang Chengyan, who was used to the elegant fragrance, frowned subconsciously and lost his appetite for the tea in front of him. "I'm not thirsty."
Jin Weisinger shuddered, "Your Majesty, please just take a sip. This is picked and dried by me personally. It is all from my heart."
Zhang Chengyan finally took it, took a sip, and put it aside.
Jin Weige couldn't insist any longer and had to find another topic.
She was the one talking the whole time, and Zhang Chengyan only responded occasionally.
Before entering the palace, they had countless topics to talk about, from poetry and songs to horse riding and archery.
And now, all Jin Weige can talk about is the past.
In this palace, it seemed as if there were always other people mixed between them.
But these things have been said too many times, and Zhang Chengyan is already impatient. Jin Weige's actions are just consuming the friendship they once had, and every time it is mentioned, it is not as good as the previous time.
"I'm going out to relax and come back after dinner."
He stood up and left, completely ignoring Jin Weige's already pale face.
"It's okay. The emperor will come back soon. When the thing takes effect, the emperor will definitely stay."
Jin Weige stared at Zhang Chengyan's back, feeling extremely painful in her heart.
They once loved each other so much, how come their love faded away just like that?
The weather is getting cold and it’s getting dark quickly.
It was only the end of the Shen hour, but the lights in Yaoguang Hall were already on.
Jin Weige personally cooked some of Zhang Chengyan's favorite dishes.
The two sat opposite each other.
"Your Majesty, you used to love this dish that I made the most. Please try it and see if it still tastes the same as before."
Zhang Chengyan took a bite and nodded calmly, "Not bad."
Jin Weige's mood finally improved a little, "Your Majesty, please eat some more of this."
This time, the stuff was not only put in the tea, but also in the food.
This thing is extremely hidden and generally difficult to find.
It does not induce physical changes in people, but rather arouses the deepest desires in their hearts.
Zhang Chengyan put down his chopsticks and looked at Jin Weige again. He actually felt that she looked much more radiant than before, and a hint of desire arose in his heart.
Almost a month has passed since Bai Wutong became pregnant, and he has not favored anyone yet.
Jin Weige noticed the change in his eyes and shyly touched Zhang Chengyan's hand, "Your Majesty, please stay tonight..."
