Chapter 68 Beautiful Pig
"My brother?"
Su Ci was surprised, but a look of admiration appeared on her face: "A tiger father will have a dog son. Brother has learned a lot from our father and is very thoughtful."
Xuan Yi was also quite surprised.
"I thought you would be surprised. After all, he is his closest relative."
"But his closest relatives have shown no regard for the safety of him and his children, repeatedly making mistakes despite knowing they are wrong. If he continues to be foolishly filial and soft-hearted, it will likely cost him his family's careers, reputations, and even their lives."
Su Ci said as she took a sip of soup: "Then why did Your Majesty make it public only now? Uncle Zhao is guilty of the serious crime of smuggling salt."
"The Ministry of Revenue has been secretly investigating for a long time. Now that they have solid evidence and are making it public, the Zhao family will not be able to escape responsibility."
Xuan Yi scooped some rice with a spoon and fed it to her: "I didn't let the Su family interfere in this matter to avoid suspicion."
"Well, it's not too sexy (Thank you, Your Majesty)"
Su Ci tilted her head and stared at the king. She swallowed her rice before speaking: "Your Majesty, it's been over a month, and you haven't told me about the Queen and Consort Xian, no, the deposed Queen and Consort Yan, and you haven't allowed me to see the concubines in the palace. Why?"
In fact, her poetry reading plan was half conspiracy and half overt conspiracy.
The conspiracy is naturally to expose the Queen's poison beads, and also to frame the virtuous concubine by falling into the lake, killing two birds with one stone.
But it was a fact that the Queen gave the concubine the poison beads, and she also deliberately revealed it in front of Xuan Yi, saying that it was Yan Zhiwan who instigated her to hold the poetry meeting with ill intentions.
These can be considered open conspiracies.
She had long guessed that Xuan Yi would stop Yan Zhiwan's tactics at the poetry meeting, and had already thought of an explanation to deal with it.
With Xuan Yi's intelligence, no matter how lustful he was, it was impossible for him not to notice these obvious flaws.
But more than a month had passed since the incident, and Xuan Yi hadn't mentioned it at all. When asked, he just told her not to worry about it.
"There's nothing to say."
Xuan Yi calmly picked up some food while picking up his food. "They deserved it. You're pregnant now, so there's no need to worry about those things."
“…”
Su Ci looked at his expression carefully and felt a little relieved.
Forget it, since others already know the truth but still don’t ask, she might as well play dumb.
"I feel like a pig right now."
"…What?"
Su Ci puffed out her cheeks, "Isn't that right? You're just a stupid pig. You can't think about anything, can't care about anything, can't care about anything. You just eat and sleep. When your belly gets too big, you can't even move. What else can you be but a pig?"
"Oh…"
Xuan Yi couldn't help but laugh out loud and poked her cheek: "Don't worry, even if Ci'er turns into a pig, she will still be a beautiful pig."
"ha!"
Su Ci stood up angrily and put her hands on her hips: "See, I've tricked you into telling me something, right? Even you think I'm a pig!"
"Well?"
Xuan Yi quickly shook his head: "No, I didn't say you were, uh, a pig..."
"You said it! You said I was a pretty pig!"
Su Ci threw a tantrum, stomping her feet and waving her hands: "My belly isn't even big yet and you despise me, then don't hug a pig anymore, hug someone from another palace!"
Xuan Yi hurriedly picked him up, his face full of black lines.
"I just slipped my tongue. Porcelain is not a pig..."
"You said it! Wuwu, Eunuch Zhuang and Nanny Qin, please judge for me. His Majesty said I was a pig! Wuwu, I'm going to complain to the Queen Mother!"
"no…"
Zhuang Yu and others who ran in after hearing the noise were stunned and froze in place.
What did they hear?
Your Majesty called Concubine Shu a pig???
…
Baorong Palace.
“Hahaha…cough…”
The Queen Mother held her stomach and laughed so hard that her shoulders shook. "Did the Emperor really say that? Did you hear it right?"
"Qin Zheng heard it with her own ears."
Nanny Xue also nodded with a suppressed smile, "Women are naturally more delicate when they are pregnant, and Concubine Shu is at an age where she loves beauty. I guess it was just a joke from Your Majesty, and Concubine Shu got upset and insisted on asking Qin Zheng to come and complain to you."
"Hahaha!"
The Queen Mother laughed again: "This emperor is also a person who has always been well-behaved since childhood. How could he say that a young woman is a beautiful pig? No wonder she got angry and drove him away. It's really strange. I wish I could have seen it happen right there, haha..."
Nanny Yi poured a cup of tea with a smile on her face.
"It's also thanks to Concubine Shu's complaint that Her Majesty hasn't laughed so happily in a long time."
"That's right."
Nanny Xue smiled and said, "I still remember when Your Majesty was a child, Your Majesty loved to tease Him and make Him angry, saying that Your Majesty was too mature and steady, not like a child. Whenever Your Majesty got angry, Your Majesty would burst into laughter."
"yes."
The Queen Mother wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, a look of nostalgia on her face. "I only have one biological son, and I always want him to live a comfortable life. But of all the princes, he's the most like his royal grandfather. He treats me even harsher than he treats others, staying up late and reading all the time. I'm heartbroken but helpless. I feel like I've never experienced the feeling of being close to a child in all my life."
"I finally waited for him to get married and have a prince, but unfortunately, the child doesn't want to get close to me. I'm looking forward to this sweet and lovely Concubine Shu to give me a caring grandchild, so that I can taste the deep love between grandparents and grandchildren."
"Don't worry, my lady."
Nanny Yi smiled and said, "Shufei is in the prime of her life and in good health. She's already pregnant not long after entering the palace. I'm afraid you'll have children one after another in the future. By then, you'll be annoyed by all the grandchildren surrounding you and acting like spoiled brats all the time. Don't complain to us servants."
"Haha, it's better to be lively. This harem has been deserted for a long time. I have been looking forward to that day."
The Queen Mother smiled and took a sip of tea. "Shufei is blessed not only because she has caught the Emperor's eye, but also because she is clever and knows when to be smart and when to be stupid."
Nanny Yi smiled and nodded meaningfully: "You are the one who has trained her well, Madam."
The Queen Mother put down her teacup and looked at the brightly blooming flowers outside the window.
"Such clever people are rare. It depends on whether the child in her belly can help her fortune reach a higher level."
…
Xuan Yi apologized and gave gifts to coax the man for two days, and finally he managed to appease him.
That night, I finally tasted the ecstasy brought by those smooth little hands.
“…Where did Ci’er learn this?”
Su Ci rubbed her red and itchy palms and answered confidently.
"I saw it in a pornographic picture."
"cough…"
Xuan Yi was gasping for breath when he choked on his saliva and looked at the innocent-looking person in astonishment.
"Chun, erotic pictures? You, where did you get those erotic pictures?"
Before this girl entered the palace, he specifically instructed Nanny Qin not to teach her those things...
"I bought it on the black market."
Su Ci said frankly, "I like painting, so naturally I want to look at other people's portraits. But Yanyu is young, and she asked the stall owner for someone's portrait. I bought a few erotica books without thinking, so I had no choice but to take a look."
“…What happens after you finish watching it?”
"After that, I only saw it twice, and then my mother found it and burned it. What a pity."
“Fortunately it burned…”
Xuan Yi rubbed his forehead helplessly. "Silly girl, do you know that if someone discovered you were hiding pornographic pictures, your reputation would be ruined forever."
"I didn't want to get married at that time, so who cares?"
Su Ci leaned against his chest and yawned. "At that time, I didn't want to get married at all, because I overheard Zhao Yu say that he wanted to give me to someone else as a concubine. I didn't want to be a concubine, and I always thought about running away from home when I grew up."
"Even if I can't be the heroine in the storybooks, even if I have to shave my head and become a nun, I don't want to be a concubine... Well, I didn't expect to become a concubine in the end, and I'm quite happy..."
“…”
Xuan Yi lowered his eyes and stared at the sleeping person, and after a while, he gently kissed her on the forehead.
