Chapter 133
Author: Qing Yunmo
At the end of the year, the palace began to be decorated.
It was such a lively event, firstly because the war was tense and I wanted to make it lively and festive, and secondly because Xiao Changluo's wedding was coming.
Concubine Zheng could no longer sit idle and had to work hard.
However, she had not done many serious events, and this was her only son. She was worried that something would go wrong, so she invited the queen to handle it together.
Wanmei never let go of being able to show off like this, but as soon as the queen saw her coming, she frowned and asked her to take her back.
Wanmei's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe that she would be treated like this even though she was pregnant.
So she shouted at the top of her lungs about the child in her belly and called the emperor saying that she was being bullied.
These words really reached the emperor's ears.
"Still at the Queen's?"
Shouan's heart skipped a beat, "I have been sent back to Cuiwei Hall by my nanny."
He raised his eyes slightly and said cautiously, "Wanmei is pregnant, and this is her first child. It's cold and slippery today, so you should be more cautious."
The emperor slowly put down the book and went out with his hands behind his back, "I'll go take a look."
After hearing this, Shou'an could only point to the two young eunuchs and follow them together.
Concubine Zheng stretched her head and kept looking at the intersection, muttering, "Queen, is your Majesty coming today or not?"
"If you don't come, the auspicious time is coming and we should leave the palace."
When Concubine Zheng said the word "we" in her mouth, the queen only half-closed her eyelids, but did not reject it out loud.
When Shizhu came and urged both sides, the group of people were ready to leave the palace.
Yun Zhao was among them, and she also asked Su Xi to pick out many gifts from her private treasury and bring them with her.
Except for the eldest princess who is in a special situation, all the other princes and concubines are going there today.
Halfway through, I saw a flash of bright yellow in the distance.
Concubine Zheng was happy at first, and then her smile quickly stiffened.
She had asked for it many times, but the answer was that His Majesty was busy with government affairs and could not find time to leave the palace.
I promised not to leave the palace, but now I'm here again.
Concubine Zheng was not so naive as to think that Your Majesty felt the same love for Zijin that a father had for his son, so she took time out of her busy schedule to preside over her son's marriage.
Mostly it was because of that foxy girl just now.
Thinking of this, Concubine Zheng felt a little guilty.
After all, it was because of Zi Jin's marriage that the Empress drove away that foxy son.
After a while, the emperor had already arrived.
His brows were furrowed, and there was an undisguised chill between his brows, "Is it the queen who asked grandma to escort Wanmei back to Cuiwei Palace?"
Queen: "Yes."
The emperor smiled slowly. Because he was so close, he lowered his head and could see the impatient look on the woman's face.
And her beautiful and gentle eyes that are slightly closed.
This is something Wanmei cannot imitate no matter how hard she tries.
"Wanmei is my beloved concubine. She can go anywhere in this palace."
"This is the power I gave her. Even the queen cannot stop her."
Concubine Zheng held her breath, frightened by the surrounding atmosphere and what the emperor said.
In addition to being frightened, I was even more shocked.
The queen didn't seem to notice the seriousness in her words. She asked the palace people to carry everything out of the palace, and then took Yun Zhao out.
Seeing that Concubine Zheng was still in a daze, the queen stopped and said, "If you stay any longer, the auspicious time will really pass."
Concubine Zheng: "..."
Damn it! Should she leave or not?
If you don't leave, Zijin's good time will be over.
Let's go, but this is His Majesty, do you want her to pretend that His Majesty doesn't exist?
There was faint anger in the emperor's voice, "Queen, you are so ignorant and rude to me, do you really think that I will not destroy you?"
Concubine Zheng looked at the emperor and then at the queen, her whole body was stiff and at a loss.
Where should she stand?
The surrounding palace people had already knelt down, and the queen looked at the sky impatiently.
She turned her head, her face darkened, "Today is the wedding of the Seventh Prince. As His Majesty's concubine, what did she do in the past? Is it to impress the world on the beauty's favor, or to make people feel that a prince's face has been trampled on?"
During the prince's wedding, what did his father's concubines do in the past?
The queen didn't believe that the emperor didn't understand the reason, and she also knew that he was making excuses, so she hated him even more in her heart.
Her eyes were sharp, as if she could directly break through his hypocritical appearance and face the unhappiness in his heart.
The emperor couldn't help but swayed, and Shou'an quickly stepped forward to hold his arm.
"Since Your Majesty said that Wanmei can go anywhere in the palace, he will take it with him when discussing court affairs and also take it with him when he goes to Xuanzheng Pavilion."
She looked away and ordered the palace people to get up and carry the box away.
These palace servants first looked at the emperor tentatively. Seeing that although the emperor's face was dark, he had no objection, they quickly stood up and carried the box.
Concubine Zheng walked very fast, even walking in front of everyone.
After a while, Yun Zhao took Tang Pozi and handed it to the queen, "Mother, the wind is still strong."
The queen waved her hand and got into the carriage.
She was so cold now that she was so angry that she was sweating all over.
Yun Zhao and the Queen were sitting in a carriage. After the carriage drove away for a while, she didn't know how to comfort her.
In the end, he chose to change the topic, "I heard that this wedding will be very lively and many people will come."
The queen took out a box of snacks from a box and pushed it in front of Yun Zhao, "There will be more fun in the future."
More lively?
Isn’t there only one unmarried prince left?
Could it be the child in Wanmei's womb? But regardless of whether the child is a boy or a girl, even if it is a prince, it has been more than ten years since he got married.
Where can it be more lively?
Yun Zhao didn't understand, but he didn't ask any more questions, but raised his hand to lift the curtain of the carriage.
Soon, we arrived at Xiao Changluo's mansion.
Yun Zhao originally wanted to sit in the garden and look at the plum blossoms, but before he could go there, he was taken to the room where the female concubines were staying.
Naturally, not all women can stay in this house.
Yun Zhao looked around and saw that there were only a few princes and concubines here.
She didn't know what to say, so she lowered her head and played with the jade pendant.
The tassels on the jade pendant were knotted and untied by her, and the tassels appeared wrinkled over and over again.
Several princes and concubines chatted for a while and exchanged glances.
They didn't come here just to chat and reminisce about old times.
The second prince's concubine, Mrs. Zhong, saw that everyone else was looking at her, so she had no choice but to speak.
After all, she is now considered the senior one here.
In addition, her husband, the second prince, was also at the border at this time, so these words were perfect for her to say.
"Ordinarily, we women shouldn't be involved in court affairs."
"But apart from court affairs, there are also family matters, so my three siblings and I have to ask."
"The second prince and the third prince led the troops to the border to help the prince. However, after many days, the third brother and I have not heard anything about the second prince and the third prince."
