Work overtime

Chapter 384
"Because you... let me think about it..." Li Beichen suddenly smiled and kissed Jiang Yuebai's cheek, "Because you are good at flattering me."

"When did I ever flatter you?" Jiang Yuebai asked innocently.

"That's not it."

Li Beichen gently stroked the back of Jiang Yuebai's hand, and felt that he should explain the itinerary to Jiang Yuebai, "I have to go to Yongshou Palace. Concubine Jing is pregnant, and I still have to go and see her. You go back to Yangxin Palace first."

Jiang Yuebai cursed the scumbag in his heart, thought for a moment and replied, "Your Majesty, I want to return to Taorui Palace."

"Alright."

Li Beichen held Jiang Yuebai in his arms, "Are you hungry? Did the Queen Mother serve you something to eat just now?"

Did the emperor know that the queen mother would give this special red bean soup to the concubine?

Jiang Yuebai said deliberately vaguely, "The Queen Mother gave my concubine a bowl of red bean soup, saying that it nourishes the skin and nourishes the blood."

Li Beichen stiffened after hearing this, like a bolt from the blue, "Did you... drink?"

He heard about this medicine from his mother.

On the night when Qian Guiren was sent to the palace by King Wei, the Queen Mother specially gave Qian Guiren a bowl to drink to permanently sterilize him and avoid future troubles.

"Take a few sips, it tastes good. Is there anything wrong with this soup?" Jiang Yuebai asked pretending to be ignorant.

She heard the worry in Li Beichen's words.

Li Beichen felt pain in his chest and felt sad in his heart.

If this happens, Jiao Jiao will probably never be able to give birth to their child again.

But he wanted to have many children with Jiao Jiao and win status for Jiao Jiao.The simplest, most direct and uncontroversial reason for Jin's title is the birth of a prince or princess.This is all what he has been planning for Jiang Yuebai in his mind these past few days.

But the queen mother actually acted preemptively, eliminating the possibility of her subsequent promotion!

Li Beichen pretended to be nonchalant and said, "No. I'm afraid you'll eat too much sweet soup and won't be able to eat it for lunch."

Li Beichen believed that it had become an established fact, and telling Jiang Yuebai was meaningless. It would only increase troubles, increase hatred for the Queen Mother, and worsen the relationship between her and the Queen Mother.It's better to try to compensate her and make her happy.

Jiang Yuebai smiled and said "Hmm", "I am very good at eating. If I am not careful, the emperor will be destitute."

She can understand the emperor and accept his well-intentioned deception.On one side is the mother and on the other side is the concubine.Mother is definitely more important.And if you have already drank it, saying it will not help.If she were Li Beichen, she would do the same.

"Can you still make me poor? Just eat it and give it a try." Li Beichen deliberately smiled to hide his inner depression. He couldn't help but lift Jiang Yuebai's chin and stare into her eyes.

"Jiaojiao, I will definitely protect you. Don't rush the matter of status, take it step by step."

He gently pinched her chin and said, "Did you really want to be promoted to a concubine?"

Jiang Yuebai was silent for a moment and then replied, "Yes, of course I do. I especially want the reward given by the Queen Mother. That is my recognition."

She didn't want to hide her true thoughts.

Who wouldn’t want to get promoted?
Isn't that a fool?

Li Beichen lowered his head and pressed his chin on the top of Jiang Yuebai's head, "Jiaojiao, I will give these to you. One day you will understand that when playing a game of chess, you have to consider more than a few moves, rather than competing for a moment. Win or lose.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jiang Yuebai pressed his face against Li Beichen's chest, nuzzling him affectionately like a kitten, sincerely grateful for the leader's promise to him.

The leader means that he will compensate himself in the future.That's good.

Jiang Yuebai's show of weakness made Li Beichen's heart beat, and he felt needed.

In fact, the other concubines all need him, both physically and in terms of status.But only Jiang Yuebai's needs fascinated him.

He truly hoped that Jiang Yuebai needed him and wanted to satisfy her.

He raised his hand and stopped it in mid-air, this time landing on the back of Jiang Yuebai's head.

He leaned over and kissed her.

The sweetness is like drinking old wine, intoxicating and exciting.It wasn't until they stopped in front of Concubine Jing's Yongshou Palace that they reluctantly separated.

Li Beichen held Jiang Yuebai's shoulders, stared at her affectionately, and couldn't help but kiss her again.

It seems like no amount of kissing is enough.

"Wait for me here. I'll be right back."

"Okay." Jiang Yuebai responded obediently.

Li Beichen reluctantly gave Jiang Yuebai another shallow kiss.

Tonight, he decided he wanted her tonight.Better to have her right away.

If there's one slim hope, it's right now, it's tonight.

The sooner the better.

I pray that the medicinal effect of Xizi Decoction will take effect slowly and slowly.He wants a child with her!

Even if it’s just one, it’s better to be a boy.Even one is fine!
Li Beichen straightened his clothes and calmed down before getting out of the car and walking into Yongshou Palace.

Entering the room, Concubine Jing was already lying on the bed.Kneeling in front of the bed was a male imperial physician.

Everyone knew in their hearts that after the emperor got the news, according to Concubine Jing's status, he would definitely come over in person as soon as possible. However, seeing the emperor rushing over from Cining Palace so quickly, everyone sighed inwardly. The emperor really valued Concubine Jing.

The moment Concubine Jing saw Li Beichen, she burst into tears.

Then the imperial doctor told Li Beichen that based on the bedtime, it was estimated that she had been pregnant for more than a month. Today, she was frightened and angry and had fetal gas, so she had abdominal pain. Fortunately, there was no redness and the fetus was very healthy.

The imperial doctor has prescribed anti-fetal medicine for seven days.It is advisable to rest in peace in the near future, and it is not advisable to get angry due to fatigue.

Li Beichen sat in front of the bed and gave Concubine Jing his usual condolences, urging her not to get angry and to raise her baby with peace of mind.Not a word was mentioned about Jiang Yuebai, nor about who would be the prime minister in the Sixth House affairs.

He planned that if Concubine Jing didn't mention it, she wouldn't mention it.In this way, if she later gets pregnant because of her anger, it will be her own fault for being greedy for power, and she has no place to blame others.

Concubine Jing also planned that the emperor would not mention it, so she would not mention it.I thought to myself, if something happens to her later, it will be all for the royal family and she will die.The credit is greater than that of Jiang Yuebai.

If someone deliberately made her angry, the concubine who caused her miscarriage could be tortured to death.If nothing goes wrong, she will give birth to the prince and seize power at the same time, without delaying both.

No loss in any way.

It's the same thing, but the standpoints of the parties are vastly different, but they surprisingly come to the same conclusion.

Concubine Jing took advantage of her pregnancy to act coquettishly.

Li Beichen stroked her hair along her hair. Although everything was still light, this satisfied Concubine Jing.

Concubine Jing thought she had successfully overcome the calamity and thought the emperor would be the same as before, only angry for a while and coaxed away.She believed that the emperor's flesh and blood had a talisman, and the emperor would definitely visit her often in the future.

The emperor just said a few words of concern, told her to take good medicine, and told her servants to take good care of her without making any mistakes. Concubine Jing felt satisfied, and her words and deeds were as gentle and virtuous as ever before.

Li Beichen went through the procedure quietly, hoping nothing would happen again. After leaving Yongshou Palace, he felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted.

Immediately ordered Xu Fuhai to postpone the summons of all ministers until the specific time was notified.

He doesn't care, he wants to grab time.He wanted to seize the last chance to make Jiang Yuebai pregnant with a child.

After getting into the car, Li Beichen couldn't wait to hug his Jiao Jiao, just holding him tightly without kissing, suppressing it with restraint.

He ran his fingers through her long hair and couldn't bear it anymore.

There is a clear distinction between love and dislike.
