Chapter 175 Preparing for Double Ninth Festival
Chen Qing played outside for a while and then walked into the house with Xuanyuan Ling. Outside, Wang Lu and the others served tea and served people nearby. Chen Qing was sweating from being so noisy, so he needed to change his clothes and wipe his body.
It was still a little anxious for her to come out to drink tea after she had finished her work. It was obvious that she didn't feel thirsty before, but now she was really thirsty.
Xuanyuan Ling was afraid that she would choke when he saw her like that, so he frowned and said, "Slow down."
Shen Qing had already finished drinking, and when he heard Xuanyuan Ling's words, he showed him the empty cup.
"I'm not afraid of choking."
"I'm thirsty." Shen Qing didn't intend to let him continue, so she changed the subject: "The emperor hasn't come to see me for several days."
Xuanyuan Ling was relieved to see how happy she was just now, but he really hadn't been here for many days. He felt more relieved to hear her ask this, and he didn't want to talk about the Queen's matter.
"Are you still blaming me?"
Xuanyuan Ling smiled as he pulled her hand, and held her hand and played with it. It was really interesting. As he pinched it, he couldn't help himself. Xuanyuan Ling held her hand, lifted it up, bent down and kissed it.
He remembered that Shen Qing had pinched his fingers and bit him before, and he didn't know if he had the same idea as he did now.
It’s just that Shen Qing likes him so much, and now, he loves her even more.
Xuanyuan Ling suddenly kissed Chen Qing's hand, which made him suddenly think that it was great that Chen Qing was his woman.
When he saw Shen Qing during the talent show, it was not an exaggeration to say that she was attracted by her beauty. After all, this little girl was good-looking. To be frank, any man would have some thoughts when seeing such a beauty as her.
Even though Xuanyuan Ling is the emperor, he is still a normal man. It is his nature to love beauty. However, it is said that beauty fades easily. Shen Qing herself was also worried that he would neglect her if there were more newcomers in the palace.
At that time, Xuanyuan Ling thought she was overthinking and he would not ignore her.
Now I feel that more and more.
However, Xuanyuan Ling thought about it and remembered that the selection would be held in two months. Shen Qing had been thinking about this a few months ago. Now the time is getting closer, and Li Guiren has just given birth. I wonder if she will think a lot if he doesn't come in the next few days.
Am I overthinking it?
Thinking about it this way, what she just said seemed a bit pitiful.
Xuanyuan Ling simply carried the person over. He originally wanted to reward her with something, but then he thought that Shen Qing didn't need it now.
She really cares about her family.
She cried during last year's Mid-Autumn Festival. She spent this year's Mid-Autumn Festival in the palace, but she didn't seem sad. Maybe it was because her younger brother has a good future and is in Beijing?
Xuanyuan Ling was indeed overthinking this. Last year, Chen Qing was emotional because of the situation. She had been holding back negative emotions for a long time, and she let them out all at once during the Mid-Autumn Festival. After all, her salary has increased this year. Although her life cannot be said to be completely as she wishes, it is much better than last year. Missing her family is one thing, but she will not have an emotional breakdown.
"The Double Ninth Festival is coming. I will go to the mountain with my ministers, and you should go with us." Xuanyuan Ling looked at her and said, "I will ask your brother to go with us, so that you can meet each other then."
Shen Qing was stunned for a moment.
She was stunned for a moment because Xuanyuan Ling changed the topic too quickly. He was just saying some flirtatious words, but suddenly he changed the topic to Double Ninth Festival. Is that okay?
And meeting Shen Zhizhuo? Shen Qing's thoughts about Shen Zhizhuo were actually a bit complicated. She felt that he was a stranger, but he had memories in his mind, and she really benefited from him. However, she occupied the original owner's body, so she couldn't even reject her relatives, right?
So after Shen Qing was stunned, his expression was instantly surprised: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Xuanyuan Ling saw that she was so stunned with joy that he couldn't help but pat her on the back. There was nothing he could do about it. It was difficult to see her family after entering the palace. It was thanks to her brother that she could see them now. As for her parents, if she really wanted to see them, she would have to wait for the right time.
Chen Qing leaned in Xuanyuan Ling's arms for a while and suddenly said, "Your Majesty has not come these days. In fact, I miss you. Is it because of Li Guiren's premature birth? I heard that the Fourth Prince is in good health. Your Majesty, don't worry."
Originally Xuanyuan Ling didn't mention it, and Chen Qing didn't intend to mention it, but now he is giving her a sweet treat.
Since she is thinking about meeting Chen Zhizhuo, she has to coax him no matter what, right?
Xuanyuan Ling felt that the Queen was upset, but he did dislike the Fourth Prince, after all, he was his own child. However, when he heard Shen Qing's question, he remembered that she was also very caring towards the Third Prince.
It is clear that the Third Prince's biological mother, Sun Liangren, also had conflicts with her, which shows that she is not someone who likes to involve innocent people. Children are children and adults are adults.
Chen Qing was able to clearly distinguish between gratitude and resentment, but what about the queen? She had no grudges against her, but she wanted her child and her life.
Xuanyuan Ling kissed Shen Qing's face: "I'm not worried about this."
Oh, so it’s still about disliking the Queen?
Chen Qing was too tired to complain about the plot, which was so distorted. The heroine of the original novel hadn't even entered the palace yet, but the queen had already been despised like this. After this, the queen would have to be cautious in her actions in the harem from now on. Originally, because of Concubine Yu, the queen was at most a synonym for virtuous and dignified, and not majestic. Now she has no face at all.
But, it won’t lead to the dethronement of the queen, right?
I don’t know what Xuanyuan Ling is thinking.
But Chen Qing would not ask this. Guan Hua would just coax him with a word. Xuanyuan Ling didn't want to mention it. If she kept mentioning it, wouldn't she be a fool?
After Xuanyuan Ling kissed Shen Qing, he hugged her for a while. He found that he seemed to like holding her like this more and more. It was not the first time. He liked to do this even when doing nothing. He didn't think about the reason, but just thought, such a little baby, isn't it lovable?
The Double Ninth Festival was coming soon. Xuanyuan Ling had not originally planned to go climbing with the concubines, but now that it had been said, naturally he had to do it alone.
Xuanyuan Ling really looked down on the Queen. Although the Queen was indeed capable of doing things, he really didn't want to ask her to do anything now. So, because the Queen was ill, he gave the task of arranging people to leave the palace to Concubine Chun.
When the queen heard the news, her already frail health became even worse.
It is obvious that the Emperor wants to seize her power as the Queen. This is not even assistance. Last year, when he asked Concubine Yu and Concubine Chun to assist, at least it was a title of assistance. Now, even the title of assistance is gone, and Concubine Chun is directly allowed to handle everything.
As a result, the queen's illness became worse.
This matter was reported to Xuanyuan Ling, but Xuanyuan Ling didn't even look at her.
As for Concubine Chun, she got such a big advantage for nothing, but she didn't think it was a good deal. The Queen was not really magnanimous. She was very cautious when she assisted the Queen. Moreover, she had no children at that time, but now, she has the third prince.
But the emperor had already given the order. Concubine Chun looked at the little face of the third prince, thinking of the child who died young. She seemed to say to herself: "I will never let anything happen to you again."
