This emperor came to Cuiming Palace, and Concubine Zeng Li had just finished drinking a bird's nest.

"How do you feel today?" The emperor stepped forward with a smile and hugged Concubine Zeng Li into his arms and asked.

"Thanks to the emperor's blessing, I feel okay today." Concubine Zeng Li said obediently and softly.

"That's good, has the Imperial Doctor asked for a safe pulse?" The emperor really spoiled Concubine Zeng Li to the bone, and he was always kind to her: "Now that the weather is too hot, you don't have to go to the queen's side to say goodbye." I'll tell the queen, and I don't think she will blame you. ”

"Speaking of the queen, the concubine has something she wants to discuss with the emperor." Concubine Zeng Li's expression always unconsciously brings out a little girl's innocence and coquettishness, which makes it very easy for people to let down their guard, especially in front of the emperor.

In addition, she is now pregnant, and the emperor is even more obedient to her, and immediately asked, "What's the matter?" Let's hear it. ”

"The concubine thinks that she is young and does not matter, and His Majesty cherishes this child very much, so it is better to ask the queen mother to take care of my diet and daily life. First, it can give me a backbone, and second, I can also take the opportunity to bridge my relationship with the queen. Concubine Zeng Li said slowly: "The last incident more or less made me and the queen a little unhappy, and the days of getting along with each other will be long, and we can't always have a bad heart." It's better to take this opportunity to get closer to the queen and the queen, and the misunderstanding between each other will be eliminated. ”

The emperor listened to Concubine Zeng Li's words and did not immediately express his position, for the last time, the emperor still minded very much. Therefore, Concubine Zeng Li was pregnant with this child, and the emperor was more or less guarded against the queen.

Now Concubine Zeng Li has offered to let the queen take care of herself, and this matter must be cautious.

"Your Majesty, you can follow the concubine." Seeing that the emperor was silent, Concubine Zeng Li began to be coquettish, wrapped her hands around the emperor's neck, and pouted: "You spoil me too much, which inevitably makes people feel unfair." The queen is really very virtuous, you spoil me so much, and she doesn't really do anything to me. If it were me, I wouldn't have been able to stand it a long time ago. After all, the queen is the master of the six palaces and the person who is the mother of the world. Therefore, the emperor also has to share the heart that loves me to the queen, as long as you and the queen are good, the concubines will naturally be fine. ”

"You, who in the world doesn't want to be a pet in the pepper room? But you're always pushing me out. The emperor had a straight face, but in his tone he said with infinite affection: "What should I do with you?" ”

From the emperor's point of view, Concubine Zeng Li is really an empathetic concubine, not only considerate of herself, but also the other concubines in the palace.

The more she is like this, the more the emperor can't extricate himself from her.

I just feel that she is just like a child, and she doesn't understand the sinisters of the world at all, so the more I want to protect her.

"Your Majesty, the concubines also have selfish intentions. I want this child to be born safely and grow up healthy. As long as he is a carefree person, it is enough. Concubine Zeng Li stroked her flat lower abdomen and said affectionately: "This thought has to be clear to the queen mother, otherwise, even if the queen mother doesn't think about it much, the people around her may not say something." After a long time, it is inevitable that there will be misunderstandings about me, thinking that our mother and son have other intentions, and there are too many hidden dangers in that case, and it is impossible to prevent them. ”

It is not impossible for the emperor to think about it, in this way, Concubine Zeng Li and the child said that the responsibility of the queen is naturally the first.

And doing so gives the queen full trust and decency, if the queen can understand it, it would be the best, and the harem will be more peaceful.

Besides, Concubine Zeng Li's words later really moved the emperor, and there is nothing more important than the safety and smoothness of her beloved woman and child.

Therefore, the emperor nodded and said, "In that case, then I will ask the queen another day." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Concubine Zeng Li was as happy as a child, the emperor was still a little hesitant, but when he saw her smile, he completely removed that hesitation from his heart.

After drinking two teas from Concubine Zeng Li, the emperor set up the Fengyi Palace.

When the queen heard that the emperor was coming, she thought that most of them were going to have lunch here, and the emperor would come to Fengyi Palace every few days, or have lunch or dinner here, but she did not stay overnight, and the queen was used to it.

came to the door to greet the emperor, and the emperor did not allow her to see the salute, and came in with the queen's hand.

"Yizhou just paid tribute to the melons, and I tasted one that was very delicious, so I specially asked them to send two plates to the queen." The two little eunuchs behind the emperor held two agate plates, which contained a dozen fist-sized melons.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for thinking." The queen smiled gently: "I don't know where Your Majesty is going to use today's lunch?" If it's here, I'll call someone to get ready. ”

"Just tell them to prepare something light, it's too hot to eat greasy things." The emperor said casually.

When the queen heard this, she instructed her subordinates to go to the imperial dining room to spread the word, and the emperor's favorite dishes on weekdays, the cooks in the imperial dining room were clear, and they only needed to consider the preparations.

The queen ordered someone to make tea for the emperor, and the emperor said, "I just drank tea from Concubine Zeng Li and am not thirsty. ”

When the queen heard this, she asked about Concubine Zeng Li's recent situation by the way, and said: "I am about to call someone to send a message to Concubine Li, so that she does not have to come to me sooner or later to say goodbye, and the most important thing is to raise a baby." ”

"The queen is really the most considerate, no wonder Concubine Li always praises you in front of me." The emperor said.

The queen was a little surprised when she heard this, but then she was relieved, and said peacefully: "It's just the duty of the concubine, in fact, there are many times when I can't take care of it, but fortunately, all the sisters can understand me." ”

"Queen, I have come today to discuss something with you." The emperor said with a spring breeze on his face: "I want to hear your opinion." ”

"I don't know if Your Majesty has anything to say to your concubine?" The queen asked.

"You also know that it is not easy for Concubine Li to get pregnant this time, but after all, she is young and has no experience in childbirth," the emperor said, "So I wonder if the queen can work harder and take care of Concubine Zeng Li, so as not to worry about me." ”

The queen was surprised and worried when she heard this, Concubine Zeng Li, who was pregnant, was a hot potato. If there is a mistake in the middle, all the responsibility will fall on your own head.

Even if Concubine Zeng Li gave birth to a child safely in the end, it can't be regarded as her own credit, but just her responsibility.

In addition, she was wary of Concubine Zeng Li, and suddenly felt that this might be a trap.

When the emperor saw that the queen was hesitant, he was a little unhappy in his heart.

"Why, does the queen feel incompetent? Or do you want to worry about it? The emperor asked as he stared at the queen's face.

"The concubine is afraid that she will not be able to take care of it." The queen smiled and said, "Your Majesty also knows that I have a lot of people here......

"You just have to take care of Concubine Zeng Li wholeheartedly, and for other miscellaneous matters, you can ask Concubine Chen Shu to act as your agent." The tone of the emperor's words was resolute and unmistakable: "The matter is so decided." ”
