The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 1185 The Dark Forces (11)
A charcoal basin was burning in the room, and several pots of jasmine flowers from the greenhouse in the corner were in full bloom. In the fragrance of the room, the emperor hugged her and said softly: "I am reviewing memorials in the imperial study, and I often think that these two little guys What will it look like? If both are boys, will they be as cute as the twins we saw in the folks before, and outsiders can't tell who is the elder brother and who is the younger brother."

"Outsiders can't tell the difference, how can parents not tell the difference? My own child, no matter how similar he looks, he can't admit his mistake." Qingchen's slender and soft fingers brushed the emperor's fair and handsome cheeks, his eyes were soft, a little bit reluctant leave.The end of the year is approaching, the emperor is so busy that even the empress dowager seldom goes to pay his respects, Qing Chen has not seen him for four or five days at least, Xiao Biesheng is newly married, so he really wants to be tired of him.

The emperor held her hand, kissed her lightly, and seeing the attachment in her eyes, even though there were still many unresolved matters, he decided to temporarily put aside those complicated state affairs and spend a good night with her.

"I won't leave after dinner, so I'll stay with you, okay?" Seeing that the small picture books on the table beside him were much thicker, he said, "I'll help you draw a storybook for your children tonight, How about I draw and you write?"

Qingchen was happy in his heart, and replied with bright eyes: "That's naturally good. I am really happy for these two children. Before they were born, there are so many people who love them. Yesterday evening, my ancestors sent someone to give them The concubine sent two jade ruyis to rest on their pillows, and the concubine has not had time to thank them in the future, and today the emperor will personally make a storybook for them, the concubine has never been so happy when she was a child."

The emperor's gaze deepened, his voice became a bit lower, and he said with a bit of emotion: "Maybe I shouldn't have said this, but I always feel that it was after you became pregnant that I had the desire to be a parent in my heart." Joy and sense of responsibility, as well as that kind of irrepressible expectation, it seems that there has been some inexplicable change in my thinking, I always feel that I want to support the sky for you mother and child, as long as you are safe and happy, no matter what I do willingly."

Qingchen knew this kind of psychological change in him. When he was not a father, he always thought of a big boy, but when he had a child, he felt that there was a burden on his shoulders, and he had to stir up the whole family.With the arrival of the child, both the emperor and she feel that they have become more mature.

"The emperor is the head of the family. From now on, our mother and son will rely on the emperor. Children are the sweet burden of our parents. The concubines and the emperor have the same thoughts. For them, the concubines are willing to do anything."

Xiao Jun put her cheek against her forehead, hugged her quietly, and said with far-sighted eyes: "Now I often think of you when you were a child, but with a flick of a finger, the little girl who chased after my ass and called you brother Jun Girl, I'm going to be a mother too. You always say that you don't remember many things when you were a child, if there is a daughter in this birth, wouldn't it be as if you saw yourself when you watched her growing up?"

Qingchen didn't know what to say, maybe what the emperor couldn't forget was their childhood sweethearts, but he forgot that in Xie Wanyi's memory, it wasn't all the childhood sweethearts who were carefree, she also had a painful period Looking back on the past.

Slightly lowering her eyes, Qingchen said softly: "Your Majesty, I forgot what happened when I was a child. Maybe it's not a pity, but God's mercy. Otherwise, I'm afraid I will have trouble at night."

After saying this, she clearly felt that the emperor's hand holding her shook violently, and then tightened his arm tightly, as if it was a kind of silent comfort.

After a while, the emperor changed the subject and said: "By the way, there is one thing I almost forgot. Mrs. Mu is about to give birth. I heard from Mu Jingzhi that the wet nurse and midwife are ready. Congratulations, you aunt." But you have to prepare in advance, don't make people feel that you have neglected your mother's family."

Qingchen nodded and said: "Thank you for the reminder, my concubine will ask Jinxiu to bring the brochure from the small warehouse tomorrow to see what rewards I want."

The emperor said again, "It's okay if the reward is generous, it's your aunt's wish."

Qingchen is very grateful to him for his thoughtfulness. There are regulations on the rewards for weddings and funerals in the palace. The reason why the emperor allowed her to make an exception and generous rewards is because he hopes that she can get along well with the Mu family. The queen also needs someone to help, and sometimes the emperor is inconvenient. What she does still needs someone from her mother's family to take the lead for her.For this reason, Xiao Jun has euphemistically hinted to Mu Jingzhi more than once that keeping the queen means protecting his own future.

Thinking about Mrs. Mu, Qingchen couldn't help saying enviously: "Mrs. Mu is gentle and virtuous, with an extremely docile temperament. She looks like a blessed person. She is only in her early thirties, and she already has three sons. If it was a male, then all four corners would be complete. No wonder Mrs. Mu didn't accept concubines, and Mrs. Mu didn't complain. The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is so harmonious.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the concubines were paid homage by their wives in the Xinhua Palace, and they saw the first and second sons of the Mu family. They were supposed to be the naughtiest age, but those two children behaved in a gentle and reasonable manner, and spoke neither humble nor overbearing. He is a child from a family of poets and books, so he looks different. "

The emperor idly listened to her words, and when she finished speaking, he stroked her belly and said with a smirk, "You don't have to envy her, you are so powerful, when you have another child, you will have all four corners."

Qingchen chuckled, and said angrily: "The emperor is good or bad, and he made fun of his concubines."

I don't know when the wind and snow stopped. Although the sky was still very gloomy the next morning, it finally didn't hinder my going out.Qingchen sent the emperor to court, knowing that he would not come over for breakfast, so he took a nap for a while, got up and washed again, ate something casually, and took Jinxiu and Qinxue to Yongshou Palace.

The queen's phoenix chariot had not landed at the gate of the old grandfather's palace, and the clever little maid had already entered the palace to report. Qingchen had just stepped on the threshold and walked a few steps when she saw Nanny Gui rushing out to greet her. After saluting, he helped her to walk into the hall, "The empress came here really early today, it's only snowed and it's cold outside, the empress really shouldn't have come out at this time."

Qingchen was wearing a bright red fur coat with golden phoenix and peony pattern inside a white fox fur, and suede deerskin boots. There were not many jewelry on his head, but he was wearing a phoenix hairpin, and the gold hairpin and jade hairpin matched it just right.It is neither luxurious nor loses the status of a queen.

Holding the hands of Nanny Gui and Jinxiu carefully stepping up the steps, Qingchen said in a gentle voice, "For the reward from the ancestors, I should have come here to kowtow to thank you last night, but I never thought that the emperor would come down early, and there must be no fewer people in the palace of concubines." Waiting, I have to wait until this morning to come."

Nanny Gui never thought that she was already a queen now, but she was still so meek and docile in Yongshou Palace. She couldn't help but smiled admiringly and said, "My lady has a heart, my ancestor is in Xinuang Pavilion, please come in, my lady." The sapphire blue phoenix-patterned cotton curtain was opened.
