Chapter 404: The buried concubine VS the ruthless and romantic emperor 52
Cining Palace.
The Queen Mother was extremely dissatisfied when she heard that the emperor first rushed into the sea of fire to save others regardless of his own danger, and then took Qin Zhaorong back to live in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
She was sitting on the soft couch in Cining Palace, with a cold look in her eyes. She tapped the armrest with her fingers, one after another, as if she was tapping everyone's hearts.
“Go and call the Emperor to the Ai family.”
The Queen Mother ordered the maid beside her, and the maid left in a hurry after receiving the order.
In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, candlelight flickers, reflecting a touch of warmth.
Yu Yao and Emperor Jing were half-lying on the couch talking, looking as close as an ordinary couple, with a faint smile on their lips.
"Your Majesty, someone has come from Cining Palace. They say they are invited by the Queen Mother."
Lu Xi's voice came in from outside the palace door.
A trace of impatience and irritability flashed across Emperor Jing's face, but it disappeared in an instant. As an emperor, you cannot violate your orders, let alone your mother's orders.
But it was soon replaced by tenderness.
He turned to look at Yu Yao, his eyes full of reluctance, "Yao'er, my mother has summoned me, and I need to go there. You can rest peacefully, you don't have to wait for me, you can go to sleep first."
< br>Yu Yao smiled softly and nodded gently: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will take good care of myself. However, the Queen Mother..."
There was a trace of worry in her words.
Emperor Jing shook her hand and comforted her: "It's okay, I have my own sense of discretion. You just need to wait for the childbirth with peace of mind, and leave the rest to me."
After that, he stood up, straightened his robes, and strode into the sky. 's gone.
In Cining Palace, the atmosphere was solemn.
The Queen Mother sat at the top with a displeased look on her face, obviously extremely dissatisfied with Emperor Jing's decision.
The palace maids stood with bated breath, not daring to breathe.
The atmosphere was as solemn as condensed frost.
Emperor Jing stepped into Cining Palace and saw the atmosphere in the palace, but he didn't pay attention.
"My son, I send my regards to my mother."
The etiquette is respectful, but also somewhat casual.
Seeing Emperor Jing coming, the Queen Mother looked sternly and got straight to the point: "Yuan'er, you rushed into the sea of fire to save others regardless of your own safety. This was an act of kindness. I don't want to say much. But you will Qin Zhaorong is placed in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, which is an important place for handling government affairs and resting. When will the concubines in the harem be able to move in at will? ”
Emperor Jing smiled softly, "Mother, Qin Zhaorong was pregnant. The Xinghua Palace was destroyed by fire. I felt sorry for her frailty and thought of the fetus in her belly, so I placed her in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Erchen It’s just something I want her to have a comfortable and secure place to raise her baby in.”
The Queen Mother frowned. He continued: "Yuan'er, you are really too casual. The Ai family also heard that you issued an order to reduce the number of greetings to the concubines in the harem, and did not allow the Jingshi room to present green cards every day. This is the rule of the harem. Is it worthless in your eyes?"
As soon as Emperor Jing lifted his robe, he sat down and tilted his head. Lying down, "Mother, I just want to feel at ease. There are many women in the harem, and greetings every day makes me feel cumbersome. As for the green head card, I just want to be with Qin Zhaorong these days. I just found those brands boring."
The Queen Mother snorted coldly: "You are so romantic. When can you change your temper? You were very close to Concubine Shu, who was with you almost every day, and now you only love Qin Zhaorong. How can you keep the harem stable with such a busy schedule?"
Emperor Jing looked at the Queen Mother, with an uninhibited smile on his lips:
"Mother, I am just looking for someone who really suits my heart in this harem. The past with Shu Guifei was just a romantic affair. Now I only have Qin Zhaorong in my heart. What I yearn for is for the rest of my life. The relationship between a pair of people is like a bird flying freely in the sky, only willing to live in one place."
The Queen Mother's. His face became more and more gloomy: "Yuan'er, you are the emperor, not an ordinary citizen. These three palaces and six courtyards are the regulations set by the ancestors for the stability of the country. How can you destroy it at will because of your own personal affairs?"
If it wasn't really shameful, she wouldn't bother to care about the messy affairs of his harem. Don't make her old bone angry to death.
Emperor Jing seemed not to have seen the gloomy face of the Queen Mother, "Mother, I understand my identity and know the rules of my ancestors. But within these rules, I also want to pursue what I want in my heart. I wish. In this palace, he will open up a new world for his feelings, and at the same time, he will also take care of the court. The palace affairs will not plunge the country into turmoil."
The Queen Mother stood up angrily: "Your Majesty, don't think that this is a trivial matter. Your decision will make everyone in the harem dissatisfied. The power of the family is intertwined, and this will inevitably lead to disputes in the court. ”
Emperor Jing also sat up and looked directly into the eyes of the Queen Mother, with confident and romantic eyes: "Mother, I am not afraid of these things. I will handle the relationship between all parties and will not let the court be confused by the affairs of the harem. My feelings , Erchen wants to make his own decision.”
The Queen Mother was so angry that she picked up the teacup at hand and threw it at Emperor Jing, scolding: "Emperor, you are so obsessed with that woman that you don't know how high the heavens are!"
Emperor Jing chuckled when he heard this. One side, easily dodged.
The tea cup flew past the corner of his clothes and hit the ground with a clang, breaking into several pieces and splashing tea everywhere.
Seeing that the Queen Mother was very angry, Emperor Jing laughed and said: "Mother, look at how anxious and angry you are, do you want to get wrinkles early? Although my father has passed away, my son and minister can I don’t want to see your beautiful face, Queen Mother…”
The Queen Mother was so angry at his petty words that she almost lost her breath. She raised her hand to hit him, but stopped in mid-air.
He said earnestly: "Yuan'er, don't forget your identity. You are the king of a country and you should be solemn."
Hearing this, Emperor Jing became serious and put away his teasing expression.
If the Queen Mother knew that he had slept with his father's woman and was pregnant, and even wanted to be with her for the rest of his life, she might be even more angry...
The father would probably be angry too. I wish I could lift the coffin board...
He said seriously: "Mother, what are you doing? I just want to pursue my true heart."
Mother is always so old-fashioned and has no meaning at all. No wonder she was not favored by her father when she was young. .
The Queen Mother was so angry that her chest heaved violently. She didn't believe his lies and snorted coldly: "Sincerely? You crawled out of the belly of the Ai family. How can the Ai family not know that your sincerity can It will be good if it lasts for three months."
Emperor Jing was speechless, why are you looking at him like this? He is really serious this time.
But I don’t want to explain to my mother anymore, let alone say these meaningless words.
He saluted the Queen Mother: "Mother, please stop worrying about your affairs. Taking good care of yourself is more important than anything else. I will retire."
The Queen Mother felt angry and waved her hand helplessly. It's like swatting away flies. After Emperor Jing came out of Cining Palace, he had mixed feelings in his heart.
While thinking about his mother's words, he quickened his pace back to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
When Emperor Jing returned to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he saw that Yu Yao had fallen into a deep sleep. The candlelight swayed with warm yellow light and shadow on her face, which looked peaceful and peaceful.
His heart felt like it was being brushed gently by feathers, full of softness and love.
He took off his robe, lay next to her, and hugged her to sleep.
The night is getting deeper and everything is silent.
Emperor Jing was awakened by an instinctive impulse in his sleep.
He is a romantic person, and he is quite enthusiastic about things between men and women.
During this time, I had a bad temper with Yao'er, and I haven't touched a woman for more than half a month. I usually sleep alone in the palace, and I am upset, so I can bear it without turning over the signs.
Now that the warm and fragrant jade is in my arms, the two of them have solved their misunderstanding, and suddenly they can't control themselves.
He turned over uncomfortably, and his eyes fell on Yu Yao's swollen abdomen, which stood high, as if it was an insurmountable barrier.
Emperor Jing was lying on the bed, tossing and turning, feeling tormented in his heart.
Trying to divert my thoughts from that aspect.
He turned sideways, his back to her, trying to suppress the discomfort.
But there seemed to be millions of ants crawling in his body, which made him very unbearable.
My mattress pants were unbuttoned, and my hands unconsciously reached down.
I saw Yaoer sleeping next to me, and felt embarrassed.
He quietly stood up, put on some clothes and walked to the side hall.
Yu Yao didn't sleep peacefully, and the slight movement when Emperor Jing stood up still woke her up.
She opened her eyes in confusion and found that the dog emperor was not around, and she was puzzled.
What is the Dog Emperor doing in the middle of the night?
Could it be that he couldn't help it anymore and secretly went to find a woman to favor him?
Thinking about it, she became a little angry and disappointed.
But I still couldn’t help but want to follow him and have a look.
She put on a cloak and quietly followed the direction where the Dog Emperor left, moving as gently as possible.
In the side hall, Emperor Jing leaned against a pillar, his body trembling slightly, and his face was full of strange expressions, which seemed to be refreshing and joyful.
Yu Yao has quietly arrived at the door of the side hall.
When I saw the Dog Emperor’s actions clearly, I couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
When Emperor Jing heard the laughter, he turned his head in horror and saw her standing there smiling with crooked eyebrows. His face turned red instantly and he was so embarrassed that he wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
"Your Majesty, what are you..."
Yu Yao asked, suppressing a smile.
I originally thought that the Dog Emperor was looking for a woman, but unexpectedly it turned out to be...
Emperor Jing blushed with embarrassment and stammered: "Yao'er, I... I am really in love. I can’t help myself, but I’m afraid of hurting you and the baby in your belly, so..."
She walked towards him with a smile, her eyes full of teasing: "Your Majesty, you are really interesting."
She knew how charming the Dog Emperor was, and would rather endure it and solve it on her own than to turn the tables. , already considered rare.
There is no shortage of women in this harem. As long as the dog emperor says a word, a concubine will immediately bring her to bed.
She was funny and touching.
Emperor Jing lowered his head in embarrassment, not daring to look at her, with a blush on his handsome face.
It's really...so embarrassing...
Yu Yao caught a glimpse of his blushing face, chuckled, walked over and gently held his face, and said softly: "Your Majesty, you can be so restrained, I am so grateful in my heart. I am very touched. After the child is born, whatever the emperor wants, I will follow you."
After hearing this, Emperor Jing's eyes lit up and he hugged her tightly. In his arms, "Really? I can do whatever I want?"
Seeing his shining eyes, Yu Yao suddenly felt that she had said the wrong thing, and quickly added: "Your Majesty, I am my concubine. There is a bottom line. Don't try to do what you did to Shu Gui's concubine..."
She also heard what the system said about what to do. Anyway, she was incompetent.
After hearing her words, Emperor Jing wondered how Yao'er knew what he had done to Shu Gui's concubine?
But he didn’t think much about it and said: “Don’t worry, Yao’er, I’m not willing to do that to you.”
Everything he said is true.
That's completely abusive. He doesn't care what happens to Shu Guifei, nor does he care about the other person's feelings. He just wants to enjoy himself.
But Yaoer, even if he wanted to, he would not treat her like that.
It is a kind of respect and love that comes from the bottom of my heart.
