Chapter 124: Begged
As soon as Zhao Huangyu entered the palace, there was a matter of being stolen from the dowry, which was related to the face of the Dakang court, and the emperor ordered everyone to strictly investigate this matter and be sure to find Lechuan Mu.
Early the next morning, the good news that Xiao Yunhan was pregnant spread throughout the harem.
Just when everyone thought that she wanted her mother to be more expensive than her son and add the title of concubine, the emperor was unmoved, and he didn't see how happy he was, as if he didn't care about this child.
Chu Heng was drinking tea in the Yushu Palace, and Su Qingwan, who was wearing a wide robe, sat in front of the desk, cooking tea with her hands, and lighting a contemplative incense next to her, and the light smoke and wisps made her even more refined.
Chu Heng stared at her for a while: "Concubine Ai is really getting more and more immortal, don't forget about love in self-cultivation, I won't dare to linger with Concubine Ai when the time comes." ”
"The emperor is talking nonsense again, the concubine just likes this leisurely and quiet life." Su Qingwan raised her eyes and replied.
"The Buddhist classics should let the queen take a closer look, but I have never seen you get angry, and I can't always suppress myself."
"The concubine didn't suppress herself, and she didn't encounter anything angry, and she was not angry, and I was not the kind of unreasonable person, who was caught in a hurry to preach if it was not pleasing to the eye." Su Qingwan couldn't help but laugh as she spoke.
"Aifei has a gentle temperament, just like this cup of tea, after tasting it, you will be attracted by it, and you will slowly become addicted." Chu Heng's fingers tapped on the teacup.
"It sounds like wine, but tea is not addictive." Su Qingwan said with disgust.
"Tea lovers are addicted."
"The concubine doesn't understand."
As she spoke, footsteps can be heard outside, and Fluttershy leads Xiao Yunhan in.
Xiao Yunhan saw that the emperor and Concubine Shu were cooking tea and chatting, so unhappy, and suddenly felt jealous in her heart, she was pregnant with a dragon fetus, and the emperor had never come to see her, nor did she give her the title of concubine, so she felt wronged by this comparison.
After Xiao Yunhan saluted, Su Qingwan beckoned: "Sister Xiao is here, sit down and taste the tea I just made." ”
Chu Heng looked displeased, chatting happily with Concubine Shu, and suddenly there was an irrelevant person, no matter how he thought about it, he would not be happy.
"Xiao Guiren is pregnant with a child, so he was born in Yunling Hall to raise a fetus, what are you doing here?"
The meaning of blame in the words is obvious.
Facing the emperor's indifferent eyes, Xiao Yunhan couldn't help but take half a step back, her heart was cold, she just came to Yushu Palace, how could she be lively with the emperor.
Su Qingwan said: "The emperor is right, Sister Xiao needs to raise a baby, but at this time, the sun is big outside, and it is not too late to go back later." ”
She pretended not to see Chu Heng's unhappiness.
When Chu Heng heard her words, his expression immediately relaxed, and he no longer looked at Xiao Yunhan.
Xiao Yunhan cautiously thanked Su Qingwan and sat on the empty seat on the side.
Su Qingwan said: "Sister Xiao came to talk to me, or did she say something else?" ”
She knew that Xiao Yunhan was not here to look for her, at this point in time, everyone in the palace knew that the emperor was here with her, and Xiao Yunhan was here to find the emperor.
For what self-explanatory.
She wants the mother to be more expensive than the child.
Xiao Yunhan said: "The concubine is here to talk to the concubine, and there is another thing that the emperor has permission for." ”
Chu Heng said lightly: "What's the matter?" ”
"The concubine's palace is too remote, and I want to change my residence, so that the imperial doctor can take the pulse faster, and it is good for the child." Xiao Yunhan euphemistically expressed that she wanted to add the title of concubine.
She came to beg so shamelessly, the emperor will at least give her a concubine for the sake of the child.
Su Qingwan was willing to help, so she said: "It is indeed a little inconvenient over there in the Yunling Palace, there are still a lot of free palaces here, so the emperor will send a message to let Sister Xiao move somewhere." ”
Chu Heng's face was calm: "Then go to the Cherish Flower Palace, the side hall of the Cherish Flower Palace is still empty, and the concubine will be bored if she wants to come and live alone." ”
Xiao Yunhan waited for a while, thinking that the emperor still had something to say, but for a while, he didn't hear the emperor's voice.
Xiao Yunhan asked a little sluggishly, "Did the concubine just move over?" ”
"Otherwise, what do you want?" Chu Heng asked rhetorically.
This made Xiao Yunhan's heart suddenly cold in half, it was impossible for the emperor not to understand the meaning of her words, the emperor didn't want to give her a good face.
Su Qingwan said helpfully: "Your Majesty, it is undignified for Sister Xiao to move over like this, and the concubine moving to a new residence is also a happy event, and the emperor is not as good as ......."
Before she finished speaking, she was interrupted by Chu Heng: "Concubine Ai is thoughtful, so she will promote Xiao Guiren to Concubine Xiao." ”
"Concubine, thank you to the emperor."
Although she got the answer she wanted, there was not much joy on Xiao Yunhan's face, if it weren't for Concubine Shu to speak, the emperor wouldn't want to take care of her at all, her concubine was like licking her face and asking for it, so cheap.
Chu Heng didn't mean to target Xiao Yunhan, he just didn't let her, and he didn't care about the promotion of her concubine at all, this time he only relaxed for the sake of Concubine Shu's face.
"If there is nothing else to do, you can step back." Chu Heng took a sip of the Ruqing jade porcelain teacup, looking soothing.
"The concubine retired." Xiao Yunhan lowered his head and smiled silently.
If one day, the emperor can treat her wholeheartedly, it will be the happiest thing in the world.
Shan Yuan quickly stepped into the room, muttered a few words in front of Sui'an, took out a letter and withdrew.
The letter was presented to Chu Heng by Sui'an: "Your Majesty, people have found it, this is a letter from Wan Daren." ”
Su Qingwan's expression was as usual, but she was curious in her heart, what was the matter, Chu Heng actually opened the letter in front of her, Chu Heng didn't like to talk about national affairs in front of women.
After reading the letter, the corners of Chu Heng's mouth rose, and he said, "Aifei, your father and they have news, they are in Jinzhou, and they will be able to return to Beijing in a few days." ”
He didn't disappoint Wan'er this time, thinking of this, he saw Wan'er's surprise on his face again, and the joy on his face became stronger.
"Really? Father they have found it, that Lord Wan must have wasted a lot of effort, and when he brings his father and them back safely, he will definitely reward them well. Su Qingwan said excitedly.
"Concubine Ai doesn't have to pray for them every day this time, I see that you have lost weight." Chu Heng touched her face dotingly.
Then he said: "When Wan Rong comes back, I will naturally not treat him badly." ”
"Vaeng?" Su Qingwan felt that this person's name was a little familiar, wasn't this the former commander of the forbidden army? He and Wu Guiren did not die after they were discovered.
"Wan Rong used to be the commander of the forbidden army, although he did unforgivable things, but he still has something to do, so I gave him a new identity." Chu Heng solved her doubts, but only said this.
Su Qingwan said: "The concubine just felt that the name was a little familiar, and thought that it was an official of the Criminal Department, no matter who he was, the concubine only knew that her father was safe, and I believe that she would be able to meet them soon." ”
Chu Heng said: "When they arrive in Kyoto, if Concubine Ai wants to get together with them, it is not impossible." ”
Su Qingwan was overjoyed: "The emperor means that concubines can leave the palace?" ”
Seeing that she asked cautiously, Chu Heng nodded with a smile.
