After the high-pitched voice fell, Concubine Jing walked in quickly.
Seeing that Xie Wenwu was there, he just took a glance and looked away.
"I've met my mother-in-law." Xie Yao tried to bless her body.
"There's no need to be polite." When Concubine Jing saw it, she immediately stretched out her hand to help Xie Yao up and said with a smile: "How many times have I told you that you are a pregnant woman and you don't need to salute in front of the Aijia."
"Don't worry, mother and concubine. My daughter-in-law feels that she is in good health and not so squeamish." Xie Yao also agreed.
Asking Ziqing to prepare tea and cakes, Xie Yao and Concubine Jing walked aside and finished cooking.
"The Ai family sees that you look good. You are better than the past few days. That doctor Su did a good job." Concubine Jing said as she glanced at Xie Wenwu who was not far away with her peripheral vision.
At this time, Xie Wenwu was standing not far away, in a slightly embarrassing situation.
Concubine Jing was talking to his sister. It was such a chat between women. He should have left immediately, but thinking about Chu Han's talent show and worrying that Concubine Jing was here to put pressure on Xie Yao, he couldn't leave just like that!
Just walking over and chatting together would seem even weirder.
"Brother, go and do your work. I'm fine. I just have my mother and concubine here to accompany me. I'll come back when you're free." Xie Yao saw Xie Wenwu's thoughts and gave a reassuring smile.
He raised his hand to indicate that he didn't need to worry about her.
Seeing that Xie Yao had said this, Xie Wenwu could only leave. Before leaving, he said to Xie Yao: "I just have something to report to the emperor. I'll come back later."
He wanted to tell Xie Yao and Concubine Jing that he was in the palace and not going anywhere. Don't play any tricks!
After saying that, he left.
Concubine Jing has been in the palace for many years, so she could naturally hear the meaning in Xie Wenwu's words. Thinking of the purpose of her trip, her eyes darkened and she sighed, "Yao'er, the Ai family knows that you are unhappy. If it were changed to
Aijia, Aijia will also be unhappy."
Even the names have changed, and the relationship has become much closer.
Xie Yao just listened quietly and did not speak.
She believed Chu Han, but she also wanted to know Concubine Jing's attitude on this matter.
The imperial grandmother proposed the draft, and her attitude was naturally to fill Chu Han's harem.
"Aijia, like you, has just received the news and is worried about you, so he rushed over immediately. You don't have to worry about this. Aijia goes and tells your imperial grandmother that this draft must be cancelled." Concubine Jing said very directly.
Showed attitude.
"The Ai family will leave your place soon and go to Yonghua Palace." Concubine Jing said firmly.
Xie Yao smiled, looked at Concubine Jing's firm expression, smiled and shook her head, "Concubine, you don't have to be like this. Since the Imperial Grandmother has this idea, let her go."
Her imperial grandmother had always had great ideas, and once she decided on something, it was difficult for others to change it.
What's more, although Concubine Jing is now the Crown Princess, she is still a woman. The royal family has always respected men, and women have very little say.
At first, he wanted to insert a concubine into Prince Han's palace, but Chu Han insisted and gave up.
Concubine Jing was a little surprised when she heard this, "Yao'er, what are you..."
Why didn't Xie Yao care at all and still said, "Let her go"?
Seeing that Concubine Jing was wrong, Xie Yao explained: "Since it is a talent show for the Emperor, the Emperor will naturally make the final decision on this matter."
Concubine Jing understood and sighed, "This matter is all your royal grandmother's wishful thinking. The emperor doesn't know about it. Don't blame him."
"Don't worry, concubine, I understand in my heart." Xie Yao responded with a smile.
Concubine Jing stayed in Fengyi Palace for a while and then left.
After Concubine Jing left, no one came to Fengyi Palace. Because of such a big thing, Chu Han had always doted on Xie Yao alone before, even when she was pregnant, so more people wanted to take a look at this huge thing.
of excitement.
Dinner time.
Xie Yao glanced at the sky and asked, "Did the Emperor say that he would come back for dinner?"
"Your Majesty, your Majesty just sent someone over to tell you that you won't be back for dinner, so your Majesty doesn't have to wait. She may come back later tonight." Wu Peiya explained the news she had just received.
"Okay, we won't wait any longer." Xie Yao looked the same and asked people to bring dinner to them and start eating.
Seeing that Xie Yao had a good appetite, Ziqing and Wu Peiya looked at each other and stopped talking.
After Xie Yao had dinner, the two of them accompanied Xie Yao silently without saying a word.
The emperor is going to have a talent show, and the empress must be in a bad mood. There is nothing they can do but stay with them quietly.
Moreover, the emperor has been coming back for dinner every day recently. The news of today’s draft has just come out, and he doesn’t even come back for dinner...
Xie Yao couldn't help laughing when she saw the two of them's actions. Just as she was about to call them over, there was suddenly a sound of footsteps outside.
"Is the Emperor inside?" That was Hong Ye's voice.
Xie Yao said directly to the outside: "Prince Hong, please come in."
Hong Ye was asking his father-in-law on the side when he heard Xie Yao's voice and walked in directly.
"Where is the Emperor?" He looked around first, but did not see Chu Han's shadow.
"The emperor didn't come back for dinner, maybe he was busy with official duties." Xie Yao said casually.
"Busy with official duties? There's no one in the imperial study!" Hong Ye blurted out as if something was urgent, and Xie Yao was no outsider to him.
But after he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong and glanced at Xie Yao secretly.
Ziqing and Wu Peiya were standing nearby. They heard clearly and their expressions changed.
The emperor sent someone to say that he would not come back for dinner, and would even come back even later. The implication was that he was busy with official duties, and now there was no one in the imperial study...
It's hard not to think about the draft.
Xie Yao didn't have any unexpected reaction at all, and said calmly: "The imperial study is not there, just go and look for it somewhere else. If Prince Hong is in an emergency, you'd better go out and look for him. The emperor just sent someone to send a message, saying that he will be back late tonight."
Some."
Hong Ye nodded directly after hearing this, "Then I'll go look elsewhere and say goodbye."
After saying that, he left.
Xie Yao could feel that Hong Ye was very nervous about her state.
Not only that, but also Ziqing and Wu Peiya, Concubine Jing, and Xie Wenwu too.
Is she too Buddhist lately? Or does she trust Chu Han too much?
Everyone around her cared about her feelings, but she didn't feel much at all.
After a while, someone else came.
"Your Majesty, the envoy from Nanling Kingdom wants to see you." Wu Peiya came over to report, paused, and said: "My Majesty, it's already past dinner time, I'll go and push him."
Xie Yao nodded, "Just push it."
This envoy from the Nanling Kingdom first asked to see Chu Han, and then was summoned by her imperial grandmother. Now he came to see her again, and he was quite active.
If it were daytime, she might consider meeting him.
It's not that she cares about the difference between men and women, it's that it's night and it's time to go to bed, and she doesn't want to waste her brain thinking about other people, lest she won't be able to sleep.
After Wu Peiya retreated, she came back quickly and said, "Empress, the messenger said that she must see you, and she also said that she is a woman, so I don't have to worry."
