At the gate of the palace, Luo Qingluan saw Nangong Qing, who had been absent for a long time.

Since Luo Qingluan got married two days later, when Nangong Qing hurried back from the front line, the two had a few words alone, and they had never met in private again. Even the last time the Four Nations Congress, she saw Nangong Qing's heroic appearance in the competition, but at that time, she was next to Nalan Ye, and her whole mind was on Nalan Ye, and she didn't pay too much attention to Nangong Qing.

Although he understood Nangong Qing's intentions for her and knew that he had a good personality, Luo Qingluan never had any special thoughts about him. What's more, she is already married to Nalan Ye, Nangong Qing is Nalan Ye's friend, she naturally wants to avoid suspicion, she doesn't want to make that vinegar jar man angry.

Standing on the side of the carriage with his hands in his hands, Nangong Qing wore a golden crown on his head, a jade buckle around his waist, and a piece of coiled dragon green jade pendant was hung around his waist. He was contemplating something, but his eyes were slightly worried, and his sword eyebrows were slightly frowned, as if he was worried. He pursed his thin lips lightly, and the subordinate beside him respectfully bent down and stood behind him, not daring to disturb at all, and the extravagance exuded by his whole body made his whole person look extraordinary, and even many people in the distance looked at this side, and they didn't know if they recognized his identity.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Luo Qingluan stepped out and nodded at him with a slight smile.

Nangong Qing's eyes lit up, and he suddenly laughed: "Miss Luo, you finally came out, there are really some important things today, so I came to invite you personally, I hope it didn't disturb you." ”

"What's the matter, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince personally invited me, and I was also flattered."

"I heard that you were unwell some time ago, I wonder if you have been feeling better recently?" Nangong Qing stared at her up and down, and said with concern: "I just entered the palace today, I can let the imperial doctor also take a look, although Miss Luo, you have excellent medical skills, but there is also a saying that doctors do not heal themselves, and it is good to let the imperial doctor take a look." ”

Feeling Nangong Qing's concern, Luo Qingluan smiled lightly: "No need, I just suffered some wind chill a while ago, and it didn't get in the way, but now it's all right." By the way, His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know what is so important, and I have to bother you to come and run in person. ”

Nangong Qing lifted the curtain of the carriage door: "Get in the car first, and I'll tell you while walking." By the way, I only cared about business, and I forgot to tell Ziqing. ”

"He has something to do, even ignore me, don't tell him." Luo Qingluan told the porter a few words, and asked him to wait for the prince to finish his work and tell him that he went to the palace, don't worry, and then got into the carriage and left with Nangong Qing.

The carriage drove slowly, steadily, and the royal golden dragon logo was engraved on the car, which was recognizable to anyone with a little eyesight. Pedestrians avoid it when they are far away, and the road is unimpeded.

Nangong Qing sat on the wheel and glanced behind him through the curtain.

The curtain door shook slightly, but the figure of the beautiful woman inside could not be seen in the tiny gap at all, and a touch of disappointment flashed in her eyes, but Nangong Qing couldn't help it after all, hesitated for a moment, and still tried to speak: "Miss Luo......"

knew that he should call her Princess Chu, but he just didn't want to shout these three words, but fortunately, she didn't mind, which made him feel a little more at ease.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, what's wrong?" Luo Qingluan's crisp and pleasant voice came from the carriage, and then a white soft wattle stretched out and lifted the curtain to a corner.

As soon as that beautiful face appeared, Nangong Qing's heart jumped, and he could only try his best to suppress this excitement, and said as calmly as possible: "Actually, I came to invite you today because of the matter of the queen mother." The queen mother is pregnant and is about to give birth, and she has been mentioning you lately, and I, as a son, know that she wants you to go and see it. ”

I had already guessed that this was the case, Luo Qingluan smiled slightly, and said: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, don't say that, but I was negligent, the mother is about to give birth, this is a big deal, I should take the initiative to take a look." ”

"Thank you, Miss Luo, if the queen mother sees you coming, she must be relieved." Nangong Qing nodded.

Soon, the carriage drove into the palace gate, and then changed to a small sedan chair, and only arrived at the Xizhao Palace where the queen lived half an hour later. As soon as the palace maid saw that Nangong Qing and Luo Qingluan were coming, she hurriedly went in to report it, and got the word after a while.

Because she may give birth at any time, the queen's lower abdomen has rolled like a ball, and her movement is extremely inconvenient. The various intricate furnishings in the hall have also been removed to avoid unnecessary accidents.

"See the Queen."

"The child greets the queen mother."

Luo Qingluan and Nangong Qing saluted at the same time, Queen Wang smiled and asked them to sit down, the palace maid immediately moved the stool, Luo Qingluan sat down and glanced at Queen Wang. I haven't seen her for a few months, Queen Wang's complexion is very good, obviously she has been recuperating well, her face is ruddy, there is a hidden joy, and she is also a lot rounder.

"Queen Mother, Miss Luo has just recovered from her illness recently, and the child went to invite her to show you." Nangong Qing spoke first.

"The queen is very good-looking, I guess it's been a few days." Luo Qingluan said with a smile.

Queen Wang glanced at Nangong Qing with disgust: "Qing'er, look at you, you should be called Princess Chu, how can you still call Miss Luo?" If it is heard by the King of Chu or General Luo, see what you say. ”

Nangong Qing didn't expect Queen Wang to grasp this point with a word, and she was suddenly a little embarrassed. It was Luo Qingluan who played a round and said with a smile: "Queen Mother, this is nothing, I am friends with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince alone, if he is used to calling him so, I don't think it matters, don't be too particular." ”

"You can't say that, Qingluan, since you are married to the King of Chu, then calling you Princess Chu is the respect you deserve, and the etiquette cannot be abolished." The queen smiled, but said it seriously.

"Yes, Queen Mother, the child is wrong." Nangong Qing said immediately.

"Forget it, when this palace sees Qingluan coming, it feels comfortable."

Queen Wang was obviously in a very good mood, and said with a smile: "Originally, I wanted to invite you into the palace to talk a while ago, and by the way, I would show the palace, but the king of Chu said that you were not feeling well......"

Speaking of this, her tone was a little ambiguous, and she also glanced at Luo Qingluan's body, that kind of special look, plus Luo Qingluan had already heard Nalan Ye say this, where did she not know what Queen Wang hinted at?

Fortunately, Nangong Qing had already said it before, and Luo Qingluan said generously: "It's true that I'm a little uncomfortable, I have contracted a cold, but I am sick like a mountain, and I haven't gotten better for several months." It made Niangniang worried, but I was worried that I would be sick to Niangniang, and I didn't dare to enter the palace to visit Niangniang at will, and asked Niangniang not to be surprised. ”

"How could this palace blame you, Qingluan, if it weren't for ......"

Queen Wang paused and didn't continue, but the gratitude on her face still made Luo Qingluan see that she was still excited.

Standing up to salute Queen Wang, Luo Qingluan said: "Today, I want to check the pulse of Niangniang and see if there is anything else to pay attention to, so I can prepare early." ”

This is also the purpose of Queen Wang wanting to invite Luo Qingluan, although there are many imperial doctors in the palace, many of them are highly skilled. But because of her pregnancy, Queen Wang only believed in Luo Qingluan, so she responded immediately and stretched out her wrist.

Gently put it on, Luo Qingluan felt it for a while and withdrew his hand.

Nangong Qing was also very concerned: "Princess Chu, how is the queen mother's body?" ”

Showing a mysterious smile, Luo Qingluan glanced at Nangong Qing, blinked slightly, and then turned to Queen Wang and smiled: "Queen Mother, the courtier will give you congratulations first." ”

Congratulations? Could it be......

This was originally what Queen Wang had been thinking about, and when she heard this, her eyes lit up, and she grabbed Luo Qingluan's hand and said hurriedly: "Qingluan, you make it clear, what is the joy?" ”

It's not good to make Queen Wang anxious, Luo Qingluan said: "Congratulations to Niangniang, Niangniang must be a prince in her womb." Although I have shown it to Niangniang last time, but this time it is more obvious, ninety percent of them are princes, and Niangniang said that this is not worth congratulating? ”

Queen Wang suddenly smiled from ear to ear: "Really? Is it really a prince? ”

When Nangong Qing heard this, he immediately said: "The child also congratulates the queen mother, I will have more brothers soon." The queen mother will be able to accept joy on her knees in the future, and she will have no regrets. ”

"Yes, yes, Hongu is finally relieved."

Queen Wang breathed a long sigh of relief, this was said by Luo Qingluan, she naturally believed it. This is also her heart disease for many years, from the beginning of worrying about not being able to conceive, and then to despair, until she met Luo Qingluan, she recuperated and finally had her own child.

As long as she waits until the child is born in a few days, then she will have something to rely on for the rest of her life.

"Qingluan, I hope you understand the heart of this palace, and I won't say much about gratitude, if you have any difficulties in the future and need this palace to help you, just ask." Queen Wang promised, her face was shining, and she was very excited.

"Thank you, mother."

Luo Qingluan told Queen Wang about childbirth again, although she had never given birth to a child, but she had delivered a lot of babies in her previous life, and she had a lot of experience. And she also said some things that the imperial doctor didn't know, and summed up the experience of her previous life, such as letting Queen Wang breastfeed herself if possible, which not only increased the relationship between mother and child, but also helped Queen Wang recover after childbirth.

The queen wrote them down one by one, and her gratitude was beyond words.

After saying this, the three of them chatted casually about the recent situation, and Queen Wang mentioned the matter of Nangong Qing.

"By the way, Qing'er is not too young, it's time to marry the crown princess." Queen Wang took Luo Qingluan's hand and said with emotion: "To be honest, Qingluan, in the past, this palace actually wanted you to marry Qing'er and be the daughter-in-law of this palace. It's a pity ......"

Luo Qingluan was very generous when she heard this, she had no thoughts about Nangong Qing, but the latter had a ghost in her heart, and she was suddenly embarrassed: "Queen Mother, this is all in the past, don't talk about it anymore." ”

"Look at you, isn't the queen mother regretful?"

Queen Wang pretended to hate him, then looked at Luo Qingluan and said with a smile: "Actually, the queen mother has a candidate in her heart, thinking that your brother will not have so much to worry about when he is born in a few days, so she told Qingluan in advance and asked her to help you palm your eyes." ”

I didn't think that Queen Wang still had this thought, Luo Qingluan was surprised: "What, Queen Mother, you asked me to give His Royal Highness the crown prince a palm and see the future crown princess?" That's a bit out of place, right? ”

Queen Wang nodded: "How come?" Qingluan, you are so smart, this palace believes in your vision, this palace has taken a fancy to three girls for Qing'er, but I don't know who is more suitable, so I want to see your opinion. ”
