Chapter 128 Respect
With the Queen's concern, Concubine Li moved to Luhua Palace very quickly. Concubine Li was happy when she learned all this. Originally, although the Queen's attitude towards her baby was obvious, the Emperor had not expressed his opinion, which made her feel uncertain. But now that she lived in Luhua Palace, it was obvious that her baby was the Queen's.
Concubine Li touched her belly with a smile on her face. She couldn't raise the child herself, so she would give it to anyone, especially the Empress. This child was born as a legitimate son and had a noble status.
She may not be of high status, but her child is of high status. Even if her position is not mentioned, she is undoubtedly the biological mother of the prince, and her future will naturally be different.
Shen Qing had been relaxing for a few days and heard about Concubine Li's move to the palace. She thought to herself that the Queen was really obvious.
After all this, she really doesn't want her own child anymore. Has Xuanyuan Ling's attitude finally made her give up?
Yes, it’s no wonder that the Queen was so anxious to make plans for herself because of Xuanyuan Ling’s recent behavior in the past two days.
After all, if he had saved face for the Queen before and made her feel that there was still hope, during this period, the Third Prince gave Concubine Chun to Concubine Yu, and he even asked Zhao Hai to take care of her. This was known to everyone in the palace, so it was no wonder that the Queen was so eager to bring Concubine Li under her own command.
If she didn't take Concubine Li under her command, she would not be able to maintain the dignity of the queen.
Unfortunately, if we lose this face, things will become difficult in the future.
Chen Qing thought silently, if the child in Concubine Li's belly was a prince, then the emperor and empress would be completely alienated.
How could a couple come to this point? Xuanyuan Ling and the Queen both have their own responsibilities. Xuanyuan Ling is a person who only responds to soft words and not to hard ones, while the Queen is so tough. Furthermore, their major interests are obviously inconsistent. They are truly the most unsuitable couple.
What good can come from such a sharp confrontation?
As for these two people, Shen Qing just thought about it, and it had nothing to do with her. Anyway, she was wearing the clothes of a cannon fodder, not the queen.
But when she thought about it, she suddenly had an idea. What would she do if she was wearing the clothes worn by the queen?
Hey, what to do? Anyway, the queen cannot be deposed unless she has committed a serious crime. If someone wants to harm her, they have to think carefully. She is not stupid, so why raise a prince? If she doesn't raise a prince, she is still the queen. When the emperor dies, no matter who the new emperor is, she will be the queen mother. What is the honor of the Chen family? Everything that rises must fall!
Just let it go. She won't need any favor after becoming a queen. Just wait for the emperor to pass away and become the empress dowager. Then she can move to the palace and keep a few pretty concubines for fun. Don't live too comfortably.
Come to think of it, why didn't she dress like a queen?
Shen Qing died of depression.
But this is just a temporary idea of hers and will pass in a moment.
Xuanyuan Ling was looking at the list he had asked someone to check a few days ago. He had said that Shen Qing was having a bad temper that day, and he was thinking about how to coax her back with some interest. After all, this temper was caused by himself. Not only did he not think that her bad temper was bad, but he thought it was interesting.
He also found the act of coaxing people quite interesting.
After all, which woman in the palace has the ability to make him care about her so much?
Xuanyuan Ling was twenty-seven years old, and this was the first time he had the idea of coaxing a woman, which was actually quite interesting.
Zhao Hai was waiting on the side and watched Xuanyuan Ling looking at the roster with a smile on his face. He thought to himself, should he go find Concubine Xi today?
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard a sentence: "Go to Zhaohua Palace."
really.
He had been anxiously asking people to investigate for many days, and now he went to Zhaohua Palace to coax people.
Hey, it’s said that Concubine Xi is so powerful. At that time, she just turned her face and left, but the emperor didn’t get angry at all. Instead, he tried to coax her and was quite happy about it.
Somehow, Zhao Hai thought that if the Queen had this ability and could be so clear-headed, the Emperor might not want Chen anymore. He might have been coaxed into having several children with her. It is said that whether a person lives a good life depends not only on fate but also on character.
Zhao Hai put aside this rebellious idea, made arrangements, and followed them to Zhaohua Palace.
Chen Qing was painting today. She was in the mood, so she asked Chunhua to copy a famous painting. She had learned this in modern times to cultivate her patience, so she copied it carefully.
Xuanyuan Ling saw her writing last time, and this time he saw her painting. Really, he almost forgot about Shen Qing's humble background.
He took a quick look and saw that she didn't seem to be from a humble family. Compared to those so-called ladies from high-class families, her nobility really came from the bottom of her heart. Even the queen might not have such a magnanimous character.
I watch the flowers fall in the garden and write leisurely.
Xuanyuan Ling curled his lips and looked at her for a while as if admiring her. But after his experience last time, he did not make any noise to disturb her and simply waited for her to discover him while she was painting.
The servants around were all silent, not making a sound. In fact, Chunhua had already discovered it, but since the emperor did not take any action, they did not dare to call Chen Qing.
Chen Qing's patience was really good, this painting took a long time, Xuanyuan Ling just waited for a long time, and even found a stool to sit down and wait. Zhao Hai's heart was trembling when he saw this, it has always been the concubines who wait for the emperor, how come the emperor also has the right to wait for the concubines?
Concubine Xi was painting a picture, but the Emperor didn't say anything and waited for her to finish?
Shen Qing actually realized something was wrong after a while. Chunhua was close to her. She saw Chunhua's nervous hands clenched tightly. How could she not think that Xuanyuan Ling was here? After all, Xuanyuan Ling never liked to report to her when he came to her, and he liked to make surprise attacks.
But she just didn't look back in Xuanyuan Ling's direction.
In fact, she thought that the day was almost coming for Xuanyuan Ling, so she was not surprised. However, she did not expect that Xuanyuan Ling would wait for her.
It's great that he has the patience to wait. After all, a man's willingness to wait for a woman is a kind of respect in a sense. This kind of respect is not uncommon in modern times, but it is particularly rare for an emperor.
