Chapter 206: The Day of Chasing the Moon, a Warning
Chapter 206: The Day of Chasing the Moon, a Warning
Songzhi was more able to sense the warning in the emperor's words than Concubine Nian. She looked at the empress who still insisted on her own ideas, and took the initiative to explain.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being so nosy. After the princess came to your place, she often cried at night, so she is so sleepy and doesn't like to laugh during the day."
"The queen was also tormented by the princess and couldn't sleep at night. Her eyes were red and she looked much more haggard."
Songzhi glanced at the emperor cautiously and then began to complain on behalf of her queen.
Upon hearing this, the emperor raised his eyes and looked at Concubine Nian carefully. She indeed looked a little more haggard than before.
"In that case, it's hard for you."
"Get up."
The emperor looked at Concubine Nian who was kneeling on the ground, thinking of her former pride and willfulness. After a moment of silence, he spoke to Concubine Nian.
Concubine Nian thought she had escaped a disaster and felt a little relieved, as it seemed that the emperor still cared about her.
Concubine Nian's gaze shifted from the emperor to Songzhi who was kneeling beside him. She glared at Songzhi several times with unfriendly eyes.
The emperor would not make things difficult for himself, so why would Songzhi need to say all these nonsense in front of the emperor? Could it be that this little bitch is thinking of currying favor with the rich and powerful?
Concubine Nian's favor is not as high as before, so she naturally values this little favor very much and is extremely wary of anyone who tries to compete with her for it.
After Concubine Nian was helped by her maid to sit back on the stool, she looked at the emperor's expression and then explained with a smile.
"It's natural for a young princess to cry. Although it's a bit hard for me, if I can make the princess well, my hard work will be worth it."
"Besides, the princess is reluctant to leave her biological mother for the time being. In addition, the people serving here are all women, and they are too yin. The princess is young and has pure eyes. Sometimes she can naturally see things that we can't see."
"I think if there is yang energy to calm the palace, the princess will definitely feel much better."
Concubine Nian looked at the emperor with a flattering smile, her eyes full of nostalgia for the emperor.
"Don't worry, today is the day to chase the moon, I will not leave."
Of course the emperor knew the purpose behind Concubine Nian's nonsense, and he interrupted her impatiently.
"Yes, I almost forgot."
When Concubine Nian saw the emperor say the words "I can't walk" without hesitation, she was delighted and a sweet smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
The emperor indeed still remembered the promise he made to her that he would be with her on the sixteenth day of every month.
"Su Peisheng, go tell Concubine Xuan that I will not be going there today. Tell her not to play with Fu Zhen for too long and go to bed early."
The emperor thought for a moment and then gave orders to Su Peisheng.
As for why he gave such instructions, it was because one time when he finished reviewing memorials, it was too late. He originally planned to go see Xier, but was worried that she had fallen asleep.
But he remembered the telepathic connection they had previously had, so he led his people to Wufutang.
When he arrived at Wufu Hall, he found that the lights were on inside and there was no sign that the owner was already asleep.
When he entered the inner room, he found that Xier was teasing Fuzhen with a small toy. The little prince changed his usual sullen face in front of him and was actively reaching for the small toy in Xier's hand.
(Fu Zhen: There is no way to entertain his parents with colorful clothes. He can't just watch his mother cry in front of him.)
The dim candlelight makes the scene even warmer.
But when he heard the sound of the Western clock in the hall, the warmth turned into helplessness.
It’s so late, and he’s still playing with the children.
The emperor was about to say words of reprimand, but when he saw Fu Cha Zhixi and Fu Zhen's faces, they turned into a sigh.
From then on, the emperor would go to Fucha Zhixi's palace to check on her if he had nothing to do. With him watching over them, the mother and son became much more well-behaved.
When the time comes, I go to bed obediently.
"Come on, I'll go right away."
Su Peisheng bowed to the emperor and walked quickly towards Wufutang.
Concubine Nian didn't expect that the emperor had come to her palace, but she was thinking about Concubine Xuan and that little brat.
Fortunately, Wen Yi is by his side. The emperor loves children and will naturally come to see him more often.
Thinking of this, Concubine Nian stood up with a smile and personally served a bowl of soup to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, I specially asked the kitchen staff to make this soup today. Please taste it and see how it tastes."
. . . . . .
night.
"Didn't you hear Wen Yi crying tonight?"
After the matter was over, the emperor suddenly asked casually.
Concubine Nian didn't expect that the emperor would still remember this matter at this time. She was a little flustered for a moment, but soon calmed down.
A pair of snow-white arms wrapped around the emperor's neck, trying to pull him into her arms again, thus ignoring Wen Yi's crying.
"Didn't I tell you that when the emperor comes, Wen Yi will naturally stop crying."
These words made the emperor's originally sleepy eyes suddenly clear up.
This is interesting.
He knew that Concubine Nian was using Wen Yi to win favor, but how could Concubine Nian control Wen Yi's crying?
If I come, Wen Yi will stop crying. If I don’t come, will Wen Yi keep crying?
Or did Concubine Nian use some means to control Wen Yi?
Such speculation made the emperor frown and he brushed away Concubine Nian's arm.
Just at this moment a loud thunder broke through the sky, and he subconsciously looked out the window.
"what sound?"
"Your Majesty, it's okay, it's just thundering outside."
"Go to sleep, Your Majesty."
Concubine Nian was naturally not afraid of thunder, she just wanted to drag the emperor down with her.
As the emperor listened to the thunder outside, he felt more and more that something was wrong.
wrong.
Wen Yi is still young, how could such a loud thunder not scare her?
There must be something wrong here.
He glanced at Concubine Nian, thought about it, and got up from the bed.
"emperor."
Concubine Nian called out to the emperor in a coquettish tone.
When she saw the emperor get up, she sat up from the bed with some confusion and looked at him blankly, not understanding why he suddenly got up.
"What's wrong, Your Majesty?"
"Lady Wan is most afraid of thunderstorms. I'm worried about her, so I'll go over and take a look. You go to sleep first."
Chunyuan used to be afraid of thunder. Whenever there was a thunder in the palace, he had to stay by Chunyuan's side to comfort her.
Now Guiren Wan is also afraid of thunder. Thinking of Chunyuan, he naturally feels more pity for her.
What's more, it was obvious that there was something wrong with the Wen Yi incident.
He originally wanted to accompany Concubine Nian to give her this face, but she actually set her mind on his child, so he naturally wanted to teach her a lesson.
Thinking of this, the emperor quickly put on his clothes and left without waiting for Concubine Nian to say anything.
