Chapter 23: Partridge Fly (3)

Cheng Meiren hung her head, her face was full of shyness, and replied in a low voice:

"Back to the official's house, everything is fine with the concubines, and the palace people are also serving them wholeheartedly, and there is no disobedience."

Emperor Zhao patted her hand and smiled:

"That's good, that's good. If you have anything to eat or drink, let people do it, and remember not to be difficult for yourself. If someone wants to make things difficult for you, tell me that I am in charge of you, and don't be afraid of anything! ”

Cheng Meiren's head was lowered, and Nuo Nuo responded yes.

Emperor Zhao finally let go of her hand and glanced at Concubine Li who was standing aside, there seemed to be tenderness flashing in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared, and he looked at Empress Liu.

Empress Liu stood there and watched him pamper Cheng Meiren, sneering again and again in her heart, only feeling sore teeth. Seeing him look over, he changed his smile and stepped forward and said:

"The official family has to be free today, come and see the sisters in this room."

Emperor Zhao smiled, stepped forward to take Empress Liu's hand, and walked to the seat of the head together - no matter how big the rift between them was, face still had to be done.

The two sat down on the main seat, and Emperor Zhao said:

"I heard that the queen set up a dojo in Jingyang Hall today, and invited a senior monk to come and chant the scriptures, it was very lively - this person came completely, I want to thank the queen for her hard work for the harem!"

Empress Liu smiled, knowing that he came here to support his newly favored Jiaojiao'er, and she was still willing to give him such a little face, so she said:

"I don't dare to accept the official's thanks, it's all right. If you want to say hard work, it should be Cheng Meiren's hardest work, with a dragon fetus, if he gives birth to a prince on the same day, it will be a great hero of our great success! After a pause, he smiled again:

"Speaking of which, since Cheng Meiren has a happy letter, I haven't met much, Cheng Meiren has accepted the reward from the official family, but the palace has fallen." As he spoke, his eyes looked at Li Changyu. Li Changyu hurriedly turned around and took the list from the palace maid behind him, and handed it to Queen Liu with both hands.

Empress Liu took it, handed it to Emperor Zhao again, and said:

"Take a look at the official family, this is the gift I prepared for Cheng Meiren, whether it is expensive or not, it is a little heart."

Emperor Zhao took it, didn't look at it, and only said with a smile:

"Since it is the queen's intention, it must be the best, Cheng Meiren has no reason to be picky, just do it according to the queen's arrangement."

Empress Liu smiled and said to the people below:

"You should also show a little bit of it, after all, this is a happy event in the palace."

Everyone listened, and some people began to think about it, since Cheng Meiren can be pregnant, then everyone present still has a chance. As soon as I was happy, I was generous when I sent something, some people pulled out the red gold hairpin on their heads, some people took off the warm jade bracelet on their hands, some people untied the jade pendant on their waists, all kinds of congratulatory gifts, and the little palace maid who followed Cheng Meiren was full of hands.

Concubine Li's congratulatory gift was not outstanding, it was just a bright bracelet on a plate, but Cheng Meiren held the bracelet tightly in her hand.

For a while, everyone had a meal in Chongxi Palace, and Emperor Zhao didn't stay long, so he sent Cheng Meiren back, and left. Everyone saw that the queen's face was tired, and they all said goodbye with interest.

In the evening, Cheng Meiren sent someone to give Concubine Li a plate of jujube paste, saying that she made it herself, and thanked her for her rescue today.

Concubine Li sighed and asked the palace people, Cheng Meiren may be out of Chongqing Palace, and the palace people are the right-hand people by Cheng Meiren's side, and said to Concubine Li with a smile:

"The official family is not at ease, the beauties are watched when they come and go, and they can walk in the small garden every day."

Concubine Li nodded and let the palace people go. I sat down and thought about it, and then I turned my head and instructed the palace maid who served me:

"Make a bowl of lotus seed soup tomorrow morning, bring my new pair of soft-soled shoes, and I'll go to the small garden to meet Cheng Meiren."
