The Pearl of the Lady

Chapter 6

The queen's personal maid, Zhu Yun, walked in with her head bowed, and said slowly, "He Jieyu from Yijing Pavilion came to congratulate the master."

Not to mention how the Queen is doing, the Queen Mother frowned displeasedly, and gave Wei Sheng a half-smile look, Wei Sheng also felt his face was hot and a bit ashamed.

He Jieyu wore a water-green skirt with piping and a moon-white blouse, deliberately highlighting her elegance and freshness, and walked in with her head slightly lowered, looking shyly and smiling as soon as she came in. After glancing at His Majesty, he saluted and said, "My concubine greets Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager."

The queen's expression was a little dim, but she still maintained a dignified smile, but this smile was far less lively than before, and the queen mother was also very unhappy. Seeing that the second prince was also nearby, she still didn't say anything, Your Majesty But I felt that my face was getting hotter and hotter.

He frowned and said, "What are you doing here?"

He Jieyu still lowered her head slightly, deliberately showing her thin white neck, and said softly: "The concubine heard that the empress is pregnant, and felt that it was a great joy. She was very happy and came here to congratulate her."

"The concubine also prepared nourishing bird's nest and ginseng, some sweet and sour plums, and the jade ring that His Majesty gave you when Qi'er was born. It's not expensive, but just a wish from the concubine."

The queen mother and queen were stunned for a while, and Zhu Yun, who was originally full of anger, almost laughed out. She really wanted to tell He Jieyu, are you stupid? You, sending bird's nest and ginseng just shows that you are not smart enough. Who will give you plums? The idea is that you can send food to the queen. The last Yuhuan, Jieyu, your IQ is basically offline.

Wei Sheng felt that He Jieyu had slapped him on the face. Is it possible that I am so poor? I want you to come out with a look of humiliation and dedication, and give the concubine's jade ring to the concubine's concubine's conceived child. Once I found out that He Jieyu was really stupid, it wouldn't affect Wei Qi's IQ.

Wei Sheng was so angry that he didn't know what to scold her for, so he pointed at her and said, "You...where did you learn etiquette?"

He Jieyu's eyes were instantly red, with tears in her eyes, she sobbed softly, "Chenqie...Chenqie..."

The second prince who was held in Hong Yao's arms by the side also joined in the fun and began to cry. He Jieyu was still crying with pear blossoms and rain. She was concerned about her image. This is not the case for a two-year-old child, and she cried loudly.

The queen patted the back of Wei Sheng's hand lightly, and with a gentle smile, she ordered, "Zhu Yun took He Jieyu's maid to take care of the second prince. The child is still young, so he might be sleepy and hungry, so He Jieyu also went to tidy up." Take a look at your appearance, I understand your intentions, but the jade ring is still for the second prince, you are also careless, don't worry in the future, don't bring the wrong things."

"Ming Xing, it's not Ai's family talking about you, look at this He Jieyu, she has no rules, Ai's family heard that you dote on her." The look on the Empress Dowager's face obviously doubted His Majesty's aesthetic ability.

"I didn't, I just went to see the Second Prince." Wei Sheng explained feebly.

"Mother queen" the queen looked at the empress dowager with a smile, "The second prince is still young, it is right for His Majesty to visit often. Your Majesty and Meiniang both like children. Today Meiniang finally gave birth to a little daughter. How rare is it? Have you prepared the gift for Ah Fu from the empress mother? Take the good ones with you too, I have saved gifts for my little niece three times."

The queen mother could tell that this was a rescue for Wei Sheng. She shook her head, "You girl, just face him." Thinking about it, the queen is pregnant, so it's time to give the young couple some time and space to whisper. Share the joy.

She smiled and said: "Then Ai's family will go back first." Before leaving, she said, "Then find such a good wife, Mingxing, you must not make Ayao angry."

His Majesty didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said: "I have never bullied my wife since I was a child." The Queen's face turned red all of a sudden.

After sending the queen mother away, Wei Sheng held the queen's hand, feeling a little sorry for the queen, "Don't always be so soft-hearted, they have no right to be rude to you."

Wang's eyes were very gentle, she looked at Wei Sheng, and whispered: "I know His Majesty is on my side, and His Majesty is on my side, so why should I be more lenient to them?"

When Wang was young, she was the companion of Princess Hua'an. The little sister had a very good relationship. Wei Sheng loved her sister and often went to take care of her. He was very dedicated to Wei Sheng, and the Wang family also wholeheartedly supported Wei Sheng's ascension to the throne. The five-month-old boy Wang lost was also due to the poisoning of Concubine Xiao Gui at the time. The Wang family has had no children for many years, Wei Sheng deliberately controlled the status and favor of Concubine Wei and He Jieyu, also because he was afraid that they would disrespect the queen.

"I went to see Ah Fu today. She has a wrinkled face and can bite her fist. It's very funny. When Ah Yi was born, I was too busy to look at it. When this is born, she must be very cute... like As brave as I am, as gentle as you..."

"Why are you laughing again? What do you mean? Is it wrong for me to say bravery?"

The husband and wife whispered with a smile.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, He Jieyu has tidied up neatly and is waiting to be summoned at the door." Zhu Yun and Zhu Xiu said.

The queen just leaned on His Majesty's shoulder, but immediately straightened up again and sat upright.

His Majesty was angry and speechless, "If she doesn't hurry back, why do you want to come together?"

The queen told Zhu Yun, "Call her in."

Glancing at Wei Sheng, he said, "Probably because he didn't dare to go back directly, and felt uneasy, so he made a confession before leaving. The child is here too, so let her come in."

He Jieyu has already freshened up and put on her makeup, her face doesn't look like she just cried, she looks very energetic, Wei Sheng thought to herself that she was just pretending, could it be that she wanted to appear in front of me? Said that A Yao bullied her, and put eye drops on A Yao, which added a bit of disgust in her heart.

He Jieyu said a few words to Ai Ai expectantly, and tried to get the second prince to call His Majesty. Wei Sheng felt that she was hypocritical and scheming, so he didn't make any trouble, so he sent her away neatly.

In fact, He Jieyu was really scared just now. She has never seen much in the world, and she has no family background to speak of. All she can rely on is His Majesty's favor. She has always felt that His Majesty likes her very much. His Majesty reprimanded her, thinking of the tragic days of losing His Majesty's protection, she was really terrified.
