"Let me have a try and see if I have wronged the Queen."

They were chatting and laughing, and sat down together. I still stood beside him. Pei Yuanhao reached out and took the bowl of soup from Kouer, without looking back, and said, "Qingying, come and sit down too."

I said calmly: "I don't dare."

"I asked you to sit down."

"When the emperor and the empress eat, there is no etiquette for sitting down with ministers."

Before the soup was in his mouth, his brows were already furrowed. He raised his head to look at me. I could feel the anger between his eyebrows, but when he raised his head to meet my eyes, he was so angry.

Still slowly dissipated, as if in the fragrant heat of the soup, he was silent for a moment and said softly: "I asked you to sit, not Jixian to sit straight."

Not the straight character Jixian?

Recalling the carrying of large and small bags to Yihua Palace, and the cautious and apologetic looks of those little eunuchs, I just felt that the salty fragrance in the room was no longer so tempting, so I just stood still.

Chang Qing hurriedly stood up and said softly: "Qingying, the emperor asked you to——"

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly paused, frowned, a sad expression flashed across her face, and her whole body stooped.

I was shocked when I saw her like this, and said carefully: "Queen, what's wrong with you?"

"I-I-" She was a little at a loss and was still muttering what she wanted to say. Suddenly she reached out to cover her mouth and let out a retching sound.

As soon as I heard this voice, I was shocked.

Pei Yuanhao also hurriedly stood up and came to support her, saying: "Queen? What's wrong?"

"Concubine—" Chang Qing frowned and was about to speak when she suddenly retched again and spit out a few mouthfuls of sour water. Kou'er and Xing'er beside her hurriedly came forward to protect the queen. Shuixiu

I handed over a silk handkerchief and carefully wiped the corners of Chang Qing's lips. Pei Yuanhao looked at this scene and suddenly seemed to feel something. He turned around and said, "Pass on the Imperial Physician!"

The little eunuch outside the door immediately ran over without touching the ground, and we helped Chang Qing carefully walk to the couch and sit down.

There was no sound in the room for a moment.

I seemed to have understood something in my heart, so I just stood by and watched over her carefully. Pei Yuanhao sat on the couch, gently held her in his arms, and said softly: "Are you still sad?"
p>

"I'm fine, my concubine." Chang Qing said, seemingly at a loss. She raised her head and looked at Pei Yuanhao: "Your Majesty, don't worry."

"It's okay. I'm with you."

As he spoke, he reached out and patted her weak and thin shoulder - the shoulder that had helped him shoulder many worries and even wind and rain.

After a while, the imperial doctor followed the little eunuch and ran out panting.

The solemn look on Pei Yuanhao's face made people understand something. After the imperial doctor knelt down to say hello, he tremblingly took out a pillow and silk handkerchief, and carefully checked Chang Qing's pulse.

The whole room, plus a dozen pairs of eyes at the door, were all watching the imperial doctor's movements.

I also looked at the imperial doctor. After consulting for a while, his eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at the emperor and the empress, seemed to glance at me subconsciously, and then lowered his head and carefully examined me for a while.

At this time, Pei Yuanhao could no longer bear it and said: "What's wrong with the queen?"

When the imperial doctor heard this, he hurriedly stood up, shook his clothes, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this is the Queen's pulse!"

"Happy pulse?"

When Pei Yuanhao heard this, he stood up in surprise: "Really?"

"Congratulations to the Emperor, congratulations to the Queen!"

Pei Yuanhao looked down at the imperial doctor, then looked back at Chang Qing, with a joyful smile on his face: "Ximai? Queen, you - you have my child!"

Chang Qing sat on the couch and couldn't react for a moment. She opened her eyes wide and was stunned for a long time: "Huh?"

"Hahahaha." Pei Yuanhao looked at her and laughed. Suddenly, Kou'er and the others embraced her and knelt down to kowtow: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the empress!"

"Get up, everyone, get up."

Pei Yuanhao smiled and said: "Everyone here today will be rewarded."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Several little girls narrowed their eyes with joy, and they all came forward to surround the Queen, expressing congratulations and concern at the same time, sweeping away the silence and condensation they had felt while waiting for the imperial doctor to arrive.

I have been standing nearby, watching this scene.

Chang Qing's pregnancy did surprise me, and it was really because of her usual indifference. The emperor loved Shen Rou and Nangong Lizhu so much that they almost forgot about it. In addition to being the lord of the Sixth Palace, she is also the emperor's woman.

.And now, she is pregnant, and the new life is about to arrive, which does make me feel a little happy, but——

Seeing Chang Qing still unable to regain her composure and looking blankly in her eyes, I felt a little worried.

For her, how does the arrival of this child feel?

Moreover, what I can’t help but think about is the depth of my thoughts.

She has been raising this motherless child, regardless of whether she is affectionate or not, she has put in all the hard work and sweat, but now she suddenly has a child of her own, what about his position?

My thoughts were confused for a moment, and I saw that Chang Qing seemed to have just reacted at this time. The laughter and laughter around her seemed to have awakened her. She lowered her head blankly, looked at her flat belly, and subconsciously reached out to touch it.

Suddenly, a smile appeared on my face.

It's so light, but so soft and warm that it seems like the whole world has become bright.

Seeing her cherished and careful look, I walked over, saluted her and said softly: "Wei Chen congratulates the empress."

She raised her head and looked at me. In fact, I could feel that her smile was not entirely without concern, but for a mother, nothing else matters except the child in her belly.

So, he also smiled and said: "Don't be too polite."

At this time, the imperial doctor came forward again and said carefully: "Your Majesty, the Queen, and I have something to report."

Pei Yuanhao looked back at him: "Say."

"Your Majesty, the Queen's body is cold. In addition to the hard work these days, it needs more care. She must not be irritated, and her meals must be served carefully."

"Oh?"

This time, Pei Yuanhao's expression immediately became serious.

Chang Qing's body is cold, which may be the reason why she has not been able to conceive in the past few years. It is extremely unsafe to get pregnant with such a body constitution. The imperial doctor said so, so it seems that she must be extremely careful.<

/p>

Pei Yuanhao thought for a while and immediately said: "It is my decree that each of the imperial pharmacy and the imperial kitchen should have three stewards to prepare and prepare meals for the queen. There must be no slack in the matter, otherwise——"

"Your Majesty," before he finished speaking, Chang Qing gently pulled his sleeve and said softly: "This makes me frivolous."

"What's the matter? The queen and the child are the most important."

After saying that, Pei Yuanhao waved his sleeves: "Go down."

"Yes."

The imperial doctor and several young eunuchs all retired and went out to deliver the message. Pei Yuanhao's face was still full of joy, he smiled and sat down by the bed, and said softly: "I just saw that you haven't eaten anything, so I need to make up for it."

That’s it.”

"I know it."

Hearing them talking like this, everyone around them knew their looks, so I, Shui Xiu and the others, carefully backed out.

When I was about to go out, I reached out to close the door and seemed to see Pei Yuanhao looking back at me.

But, no words were spoken.

After closing the door, I saw Kuan'er and the others jumping for joy in the yard. Aunt Wu and the others also heard about it and wanted to come over to congratulate them. I pushed them back carefully and looked at them with a smile:

"Keep your voice down, or you'll get scolded."

Kou'er smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? The emperor and the empress are happy now, how can they curse others?"

"Then you go up to the house and lift a tile and take a look."

When everyone heard this, they all laughed.

I also smiled and said: "Okay, I'm happy to be happy, don't forget the business."

"Ah?"

Seeing them just enjoying themselves and forgetting about everything else, I smiled and shook my head: "I didn't see that the Queen didn't eat anything just now. Please ask the imperial kitchen to send you some other soup. Don't make it greasy."

Bring some sweet and sour snacks as well."

"Oh, that's right." After hearing this, they all ran to do it happily.

After they all left, Shui Xiu was still smiling. She looked back at me with a smile, but suddenly she seemed to remember something and couldn't laugh anymore.

He walked up to me carefully: "Sir?"

"Huh?"

Neither she nor Grandma Wu spoke, they just looked at me. I looked at them with a smile: "What's wrong?"

"..."

Neither of them spoke, as if it was difficult for them to speak.

I just smiled and murmured: "Shui Xiu went to follow them and give me some food. I just went over and sat there without eating anything."
