Hall of Mental Cultivation
Even if Consort Hua didn't want to come and take over the Empress's position, she had no choice but to come.
Who told her to still be clinging to her old persona, still deeply in love with the emperor?
"Your Majesty has just finished taking medicine, and your mouth must be quite bitter. The milk candies made by Consort Cheng are just right; Your Majesty should have a couple more."
Eat up, eat yourself to death!
Consort Hua smiled sweetly on the surface, but cursed him fiercely in her heart.
The doctor said that eating too much sugar can easily lead to illness, especially for older people.
Don't you like sweets? I'll let you eat your fill from now on!
After waking up, Da Pang Ju had some congee and drank a bowl of medicine, and her spirits improved considerably.
I took two milk candies filled with preserved plum flesh, put them in my mouth, and chewed them vigorously.
But as she chewed, the big fat orange unconsciously frowned, making Consort Hua feel guilty.
"Your Majesty, are these not to your liking?"
Big Fat Orange said, "The taste is good. I didn't notice it when Consort Cheng sent it a few days ago, but it's a bit too hard on my teeth to eat today."
"My cheeks are sore from chewing, and I still haven't finished."
Seeing that the chubby orange cat seemed to be looking for something and spat out the candy, Consort Hua deliberately said...
"I find it hard on Your Majesty's teeth to feed you. Would it be just right if you were fed by Consort Sun, Consort Shen, or Consort Jing?"
Big Fatty Orange felt his head start to hurt again. He said it casually, or was it the truth? Why did it start to feel sour again?
"I am telling the truth. This candy is tough on your teeth anyway, so what does it have to do with who gave it to you?"
Consort Hua said, "How can it be unrelated? Didn't His Majesty say that when Consort Cheng delivered it a few days ago, he didn't even notice it?"
“What you are eating now is what Consort Cheng gave me. If it’s not because you favor the new concubines, then it must be what Consort Cheng gave me, and it’s different from what I gave you.”
"I'd like to ask her why she's categorizing even a few candies into different grades."
The chubby orange said, "They're all the same thing, there's no such thing as different grades."
"I'm ill, how could I have the strength to chew this? Did you come here to attend to me, or to annoy me?"
Seeing that the chubby orange was unhappy, Consort Hua quickly went over to him in a flattering manner, gently stroking his chest with her hand, making a gesture to appease him.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. I only couldn't help it because I care about you so much."
"When you mentioned Consort Cheng while I was serving you, I felt a pang of jealousy."
After saying this, Consort Hua gently patted the chest of the chubby orange tree. She turned around, looking aggrieved, and pretended to be heartbroken, wiping away tears with a silk handkerchief.
This immediately softened the heart of the chubby orange, who said helplessly, "Alright, it's my fault."
"I shouldn't have spoken up for others in front of you. I've always seen you treat Consort Cheng very well, so why are you still as jealous as before?"
Consort Hua glanced resentfully at the chubby orange cat, then pinched her thigh hard with her hand under her silk handkerchief.
The tears that had been brewing for a while finally fell like beads.
"I am close to Consort Cheng, but my husband's favor is only this much."
"If she gets more, I'll get less. I don't want to wait from dusk till dawn every day."
“I don’t care about the others, I can give up anything, but I can’t give up anything for Your Majesty.”
The beauty's tears were enough to evoke pity in me. Moreover, the chubby orange originally felt a deep sense of guilt towards Consort Hua.
Alas, Consort Hua's tendency to be capricious and jealous stemmed from her deep affection for him.
Never mind, as long as it's not excessive, it's not a big deal.
The chubby orange reached out and wiped away the tears on Consort Hua's face. "I will make time to spend with you more often in the future, so that you won't have to wait until dawn every day."
Having received the promise, Consort Hua stopped crying and smiled, happily hugging the big fat orange dog's neck, their heads touching.
While taking advantage of the fact that the chubby orange cat couldn't see, Consort Hua rolled her eyes in disgust and said with delight, "Your Majesty's words are golden, you must come to Yikun Palace to accompany me more often in the future."
"No matter who gains favor in the future, the Emperor's favorite will always be me, and he will visit me the most each month!"
Big Fatty felt that Consort Hua was hugging him too tightly; his neck was a little sore, and he felt a bit short of breath. He was already feeling unwell, and this sudden movement made him feel even worse.
She struggled a couple of times but had no strength and couldn't break free. She didn't hear what Consort Qinghua said, only the gist of it: it seemed she was the one who liked her the most.
The chubby orange cat said, "A king's word is his bond. I said I would come to see you more often, so let me go!"
Consort Hua released her grip with satisfaction, and the chubby orange cat gasped for breath several times after being freed.
He now truly understands the difficulty of receiving kindness from a beautiful woman!

Chuxiu Palace
Sun Miaoqing was in the toy room, playing with Hongzhou.
The child cried himself to sleep yesterday, but woke up this morning perfectly fine.
She had thought that Hongzhou would be clamoring for his aunt and was considering whether to invite the Princess Consort of Prince Zhuang into the palace.
It seems she was too soft-hearted. A three-year-old child at this age is different from a three-year-old child later in life.
They're all incredibly clever!
Liuli brought in the medicine, saying, "Your Majesty, it's time for the Fifth Prince to take his medicine."
"Put it aside for now."
Sun Miaoqing said, "Hongzhou, come here. It's time to take your medicine. Only by taking it can you stay healthy."
Granny Li brought Hongzhou over, and Hongzhou looked at the dark, murky medicine on the table, clearly showing his resistance.
"I don't want to drink it! I want my aunt to feed me!"
Sun Miaoqing's lips twitched; it seemed this matter wouldn't be so easily resolved.
Granny Li quickly said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. The Fifth Prince is still young. He drank these bitter medicines while still drinking milk, which is why he resists them."
