Chapter 304: Concubine Hua is jealous, the emperor gives gifts
"Songzhi, where did the emperor go before coming to our Yikun Palace?"
Concubine Hua suddenly remembered that the emperor had just said that he was going to Chengqian Palace to see the Sixth Prince, which meant that the emperor had not been to Chengqian Palace before.
If that is the case, then the emperor most likely went to Suiyuxuan before coming to Yikun Palace.
How could she not feel jealous when she thought about the fact that Zhen Huan was diagnosed with pregnancy by the imperial physician on the day her face was scratched?
Her darkest and most painful days were her rival's happiest days.
"Reporting to the queen, the emperor went to Suiyuxuan before coming to our Yikun Palace."
Songzhi carefully told the information she had just found out.
"It's Sui Yuxuan, why does this bitch Zhen Huan always pick on me?"
The more Concubine Hua thought about it, the angrier she became. She waved her hand and threw the teacup beside her to the ground.
"Your Majesty, don't be angry. The Emperor still has you in his heart."
Seeing this, Songzhi quickly spoke to comfort her.
"Of course the emperor has me in his heart, but the bitch Zhen Huan deliberately lured the emperor away from me because she was pregnant."
Concubine Hua always thought that the emperor would come to see her first, but she didn't expect that Zhen Huan would get there first.
"It is only natural for the emperor to visit the Sixth Prince in Chengqian Palace, but who is she, Zhen Huan? It is still uncertain whether the baby in her belly can be born. Moreover, even if it is born, it may not be a prince. It may just be a useless princess."
The more Concubine Hua thought about it, the angrier she became. The new and old grudges combined made her want to rush to Sui Yuxuan and tear Zhen Huan apart.
"My lady, Lady Wan is definitely not blessed with a prince. This baby must be a princess."
Songzhi followed Concubine Hua's words and spoke to comfort her.
"Why is Eunuch Su here? Is the Emperor coming over?"
Huichun asked happily when she saw Su Peisheng coming in.
"Please wait a moment, eunuch. I will report to the queen right away."
After saying this, Huichun quickly walked into the inner hall, bowed to the queen and said.
"My lady, Eunuch Su is here."
"Oh, is it so?"
The queen thought that the emperor was coming to her, which made her unable to help but smile.
"When the emperor returns to the palace, he will definitely come to see you, the queen, as soon as possible. The emperor has been out of the palace for such a long time, he must still be thinking about you, the queen."
Chun'er pretended to be cute and innocent and looked at the queen and said.
The queen's shyness became even more obvious when Chun'er flattered her.
"Today is the night of the full moon. The Emperor will definitely come to the Empress's side."
Huichun also spoke up and agreed.
"He's getting more and more talkative. Why don't you let Eunuch Su in?"
The queen glared at Huichun, but the sweetness in her eyes was obvious.
"Yes, ma'am."
"Eunuch Su, please."
"Good luck to the Queen."
Su Peisheng bowed to the queen.
"Eunuch Su, what's the matter with you coming here?"
The Queen took the initiative to ask.
"Reporting to the Queen, the Emperor asked me to come and tell you that he had to come back in a hurry today and will not come to Jingren Palace."
Su Peisheng lowered his eyes and spoke carefully.
"Eunuch, today is the fifteenth day of the full moon. Logically, the Emperor should come to the Empress's palace."
Chun'er saw that something was not right and took the initiative to ask on behalf of the Queen.
"Did anything happen today?"
"Did Concubine Hua invite the Emperor over, or did the Emperor go to Suiyuxuan to visit Concubine Wan?"
The Queen asked with some eagerness, which was rare.
After all, the emperor had never stood her up on the fifteenth day. Even when Concubine Hua was in favor, the emperor would definitely come to her palace on this day.
"Reporting to the Queen, as soon as the Emperor received the letter from the Queen, he quickly dealt with his affairs and rushed back. After learning about what happened in the past few days, the Emperor went to the Concubine Wan's palace to see Concubine Wan, and then planned to go to the Yikun Palace to see Concubine Hua."
"The Emperor is worried that the Empress is waiting for him, so he ordered me to tell the Empress that he will not come today."
Su Peisheng began to explain.
"Please rest early, Queen."
"I see."
Upon hearing this, the queen revealed a generous and appropriate smile.
"It is only right for the Emperor to visit Concubine Wan and Concubine Hua. Concubine Wan is so pregnant, and Concubine Hua has suffered such an unexpected disaster. The Emperor should really go to see them this time when he returns to the palace."
"Huichun, go to the storehouse and select two Hetian jade ruyi to send to Concubine Wan's palace. Concubine Wan is pregnant now, and this thing can calm her mind."
"Pick some good herbs and take them to Concubine Hua's palace. Tell the imperial physician who is in charge of treating Concubine Hua to speak up and make sure she takes good care of her."
The queen smiled and instructed Huichun.
After all, now that the emperor has returned, she naturally has to be a good wife and let the emperor see her virtues with his own eyes.
"If your Majesty has no other instructions, I will take my leave."
Su Peisheng stood up and left.
He did notice some clues from today's events. He thought that the Emperor might have some doubts about the Empress, so he deliberately chose to return to the palace today.
Otherwise, according to the normal schedule, he could have returned to the palace the day before, but the emperor insisted on waiting until today.
On this side, Fu Cha Zhixi waited for almost an hour before the emperor came back.
"I thought the emperor had forgotten me."
After the ceremony, Fucha Zhixi looked at the emperor angrily and said.
"How could that be? If I don't come back, I will be hungry."
"Besides, since you said so, how can I bear to let you wait any longer?"
The emperor saw this and said with some amusement, put his arm around Fu Cha Zhixi.
"Yuhu, go tell the kitchen to bring up the dishes."
Fu Cha Zhixi snorted lightly, then turned to look at Yu Hu beside him and spoke.
"Yes, ma'am."
"Okay, don't be angry anymore."
"I brought you a gift this time, Su Peisheng."
Upon seeing this, the emperor tapped Fu Cha Zhixi's nose lightly, looked at her lovingly and said.
"really?"
"Your Majesty, please don't lie to me."
Fu Cha Zhixi didn't expect that the emperor would still remember to bring her a gift, which made her feel very surprised.
After all, the emperor has always been generous, and the gifts he always sends are all exquisite. I wonder what the emperor will give me this time.
Soon, Su Peisheng walked in with an exquisite wooden box.
When I opened it, I saw a pair of golden bracelets lying quietly in the box, silently emitting their own light.
"This pair of gold filigree and kingfisher-inlaid four-dragon bracelets playing with pearls was designed by me personally. I personally asked a famous folk craftsman to make this pair of bracelets for you. I wonder if my Xi'er likes this gift?"
The emperor smiled and picked up the bracelets and put them on Fucha Zhixi's fair wrists.
