Chapter 115 The Two Palaces Dined Together

Louyue Kaiyun’s lunch includes a dish of duck soup.

The emperor liked it very much.

The last time the empress used the soup as an allegory, she did not let the emperor drink the third bowl, which made the emperor unhappy. This time, the empress not only did not stop him, but also served him herself.

The queen no longer cared about favors or her health.

It would be fine even if he was asked to finish the whole bowl of soup and the meat by himself.

The emperor drank very contentedly, "The duck soup in your palace has always been very good. You can teach Concubine Hua Gui later, so that she won't have to worry about it all the time."

Can't teach.

Duck soup is cold in nature. When she was pregnant, she had already eaten a lot of cold food and couldn't stop.

Where can you eat these now?

The Queen naturally wouldn't say that. "Yes, if Concubine Hua Gui likes it, I will have someone stew it every day and ask her to come and eat it."

"If so, that would be great."

The emperor responded so quickly and decisively, and the implication was so obvious that the empress was instantly on edge.

"I am a foolish servant... I don't know what the emperor means by this."

"When you and Concubine Hua Gui were in the palace, you worked together to take care of the affairs in the backyard. Naturally, your relationship is incomparable to others."

emotion?

What kind of relationship could there be between her and Nian Shilan?

Could it be that the emperor discovered something and was speaking to me in secret?

The queen listened and became uneasy.

The emperor wiped his mouth with a handkerchief and continued, "Now that many people in the harem have been promoted, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has a lot of things to do. You will have plenty of opportunities to come into contact with her."

"Louyue Kaiyun and Ruguhan are not far away now. You can go to her place or she can come to your place. It's all fine."

so what?

The queen was afraid that she might say something wrong and ruin the whole thing, so she didn't dare to say a word.

"Shilan has a simple personality. If you spend more time with her, the relationship between the sisters will naturally improve."

The queen really didn't understand the emperor any more. "What the emperor meant was..."

"She can't control her appetite and likes to eat cold food. The conflict between the cold and the heat must have made her feel uncomfortable."

At this point, the emperor paused, "Jiang Cheng went home to attend the funeral. Although he has arranged everything, he is afraid that someone will have to take care of Concubine Hua Gui."

The queen understood.

Even though Concubine Hua Gui was reborn, she knew the truth about Huan Yixiang.

But what she saw in her previous life might not be the truth, and what she said in her heart was not without mistakes. For example, when she said Cui Jinxi had served Rouze, that was not actually the case.

Since there is a mistake, there is room for him to overthrow and frame him.

If someone were to speak up and say that Concubine Hua Gui had used musk, it would be her fault as she had arranged for the imperial physician to take care of Concubine Hua Gui's pulse.

He could also send himself away to appease the anger of the Nian family.

What a good emperor, what a good companion.

He actually wanted her to be the second Concubine Duan.

In his mind, the women in the harem are all chess pieces that can be used, right?

"Yes, I understand. If Yinfeng Palace needs you, please send Doctor Zhang over."

The emperor looked at the empress with a more relieved look in his eyes.

Now that he thinks about it, his previous worry about the Queen and Concubine Hua Gui's friendship was unnecessary. If something happened to Se-ran's child, the Queen could not escape the blame.

They are destined enemies.

"I feel relieved with you here." The emperor held the queen's hand. "There are a lot of things going on in the harem recently. The queen must take good care of herself."

The cat cries over the rat but that's false mercy.

Even though she knew it was fake, the queen still looked flattered and surprised, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."

When the matter of the harem's promotion to the throne was mentioned, the empress would discuss it with the emperor.

"The promotion of Concubine Hua to Concubine Hua is a big event, so of course we need to make some fun of it. The promotion of Concubine Wan to Concubine Wan, and the promotion of Concubine An to Concubine An, there is nothing wrong with that."

"But Miss Shen has no children and has only been in the palace for a short time. If we make her a concubine right away, I'm afraid the old lady will feel bad."

Now it doesn’t matter who gets promoted to the throne in the harem.

The Queen was laying the groundwork for what she was about to say.

The Emperor actually still likes Shen Meizhuang's stability, low profile and lack of trouble, and she gets along very well with the Empress and Concubine Hua Gui.

But the thought that she will cheat on me in the future makes me feel uncomfortable.

If he had not promoted Sun Miaoqing in a fit of rage yesterday, causing Shi Lan to be unhappy and publicly requesting a title, he would not have promoted Shen Meizhuang.

"Just give me a title."

The emperor said indifferently: "Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs come up with a title."

Although he now favors Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang, his feelings for them do not seem to be very strong.

It can be seen that Hua Fei's thoughts have a great influence on the emperor.

The queen smiled inwardly but sighed.

The matter was resolved, and the emperor asked casually, "What happened?"

"I just suddenly remembered that the noble lady Fang had a miscarriage before, and then the noble lady Xin had a miscarriage, and now Sun Danying has also had a miscarriage. The children in the palace seem to be..."

Halfway through her words, the queen suddenly came to her senses and quickly left her seat. "I have spoken out of turn. I did not mean to take revenge... Your Majesty, please forgive me."

What to report?

Retribution?

Su Peisheng had finally managed to coax the emperor into peace last night, but now the empress had pushed the emperor back into the abyss with just a few words.

The emperor looked a little embarrassed, and his voice was obviously much colder. He said:

"I still have some memorials to review, so I'll go back first."

He did not punish her, nor did he ask the queen to stand up, which showed that he was very angry.

"Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off."

After the emperor left, Jianqiu helped the empress to stand up. "It's a rare opportunity for the emperor to come here. Why did you bring up this matter and make him unhappy?"

Seeing that the emperor was in high spirits at lunch today, she intended to stay a little longer.

"Humph, if you don't mention it now, when will you mention it?"

It is to let him know that there will be retribution if he harms his own flesh and blood.

Only this idea of ​​retribution was deeply rooted in the emperor's heart. He was afraid and did not dare to act rashly when he learned that Concubine Hua Gui was pregnant!

The queen lowered her head and twirled her sleeves, saying nonchalantly, "Send someone to Yinfeng Palace to tell Concubine Hua Gui that I'm going to have dinner with her."

"ah?"

Jianqiu was stunned.

"What? Didn't you hear what the emperor said just now?"

"But you are the queen. If we need to dine together, she should come to our place."

"After dinner, there are still many things to discuss. By then it will be dark. If she accidentally slips, will her body be able to bear it?"

"But……"

"Just let her have lunch here tomorrow."

Jianqiu whispered, "I know that you are doing this for the sake of the child, but this is too much pampering for Concubine Hua Gui. She is already arrogant, and she will become even more lawless in the future."

The queen sighed and said, "Why don't you go now?"

"Yes, madam."
