Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Li Ji talked to Hua Manman again, during which Wu Wang came in to take a look.

Wu Wang truthfully told the emperor what he saw.

"When His Royal Highness King Zhao was talking to Hua Ruren, he kept smiling and seemed to be in a good mood."

The emperor sighed lightly.

Originally, he was thinking of sending Hua Ruren far away and not letting her meet Li Ji anymore, but he didn't expect Li Ji to suddenly become poisoned.

Now that Li Ji's life is on the verge of death, the Tai Hospital has never discussed a countermeasure.

The emperor could only give up the idea of ​​sending Hua Ruren away.

He now hopes that Li Ji will be well, and that it is enough for him to live in peace.

As for the rest, we will talk about it later.

The emperor ordered: "Since Hua Ruren can make King Zhao happy, let her live in the palace with her so that she can better serve King Zhao."

"Here."

Li Ji was arranged to live in the left side hall of Hanzhang Hall, and Hua Manman naturally lived here too.

The news that King Zhao was poisoned quickly spread in the palace.

Everyone was talking about it.

Many of them were gloating secretly, they all had enmity with King Zhao, so naturally they hoped that King Zhao would burp sooner.

But there are also many people who are worried about this.

For example, Hua Qingqing.

She wasn't worried about what would happen to King Zhao, but what would happen to her second sister if something happened to King Zhao?

Given the emperor's preference for King Zhao, she was really worried that the emperor would, in great grief, order Hua Ruren to be buried with King Zhao.

After all, King Zhao dotes on Hua Ruren so much that he takes Hua Ruren with him wherever he goes.

If he died, Hua Ruren would naturally have to accompany him.

Hua Qingqing originally wanted to wait for the emperor to come to Wangyuexuan, and then find a way to get news about King Zhao from him.

Helplessly, the emperor has been very busy recently. Apart from dealing with political affairs every day, he just went to visit the seriously ill King Zhao. At the same time, he also had to urge the Ministry of Punishments to find out the real culprit of the poisoning as soon as possible. He really didn't want to spend time with his concubines.

Waiting and waiting really couldn't wait for the emperor, so Hua Qingqing could only change her strategy and choose to take the initiative.

Three months pregnant, she still doesn't show much, and her figure is still slim, but she also chose a loose light green chest-length skirt, a simple but chic bun, and two emerald beads on her hair step shake.

She was assisted by a court lady to sit in the chariot and headed for Hanzhang Hall.

Coincidentally, as soon as Hua Qingqing arrived at Hanzhang Hall, she saw another group of people walking towards them.

The leader of that group was Yin Meiren who had just entered the palace.

The two sides met each other.

Beauty Yin stepped forward to bless Fushen gracefully, and said with a smile.

"I heard that Hua Jieyu is pregnant recently, I've always wanted to congratulate you, but I haven't been able to find a suitable opportunity.

It's rare to meet you today, so my sister is here to congratulate you. "

Hua Qingqing smiled slightly: "Are you also here to see the saint?"

"Yes, my concubine heard that the sage has worked so hard on King Zhao's affairs recently, so I specially made chicken soup for the sage."

Yin Meiren paused at this point, and looked at the food box carried by the maid behind Hua Jieyu, pretending to be curious and asking.

"Sister, are you also here to deliver soup to the saint?"

Hua Qingqing didn't answer, but said: "In that case, let's go in together."

The two entered Hanzhang Hall and were led to the side hall to wait.

The emperor had just finished visiting Zhao Wang, and he was quite surprised to learn that Hua Jieyu and Yin Meiren came together.

When did the relationship between the two of them become so good?

When the emperor saw the two of them, he realized that they did not come together, but just happened to meet at the door.

Yin Meiren opened the food box first, took out the porcelain cup inside, put her hands in front of the emperor, and said in a soft voice as if offering treasures.

"My concubine got up early in the morning to make this chicken soup, and has been busy until now. How about you try it?"

Because of her young age, even if she is a little eager, she still looks innocent and innocent, making one unable to bear to reject her sincerity.

The emperor said softly: "It's hard for you to have a heart."

Zuo Ji asked someone to bring a small bowl and spoon, and asked him to try a bite. After confirming that there was no problem, he took out a small bowl of chicken soup from the porcelain cup and put it in front of the emperor.

After the emperor tasted it, he smiled and praised it.

Yin Meiren showed a shy smile, her beautiful eyes were full of admiration for the emperor, and her body followed suit.

"Your Majesty~"

The emperor looked at her helplessly, as if there was nothing he could do about her.

Seeing this scene, Hua Qingqing couldn't help but feel a little lost, and even felt a little unexplainable discomfort.

She knew that the emperor had three thousand beauties in the harem, and she was just one of them.

Even if the emperor cared more about her than others, that would not mean anything.

After all, the emperor has always been like this. When he likes someone, he will favor him in various ways. Once he doesn't like him, he will forget about him.

Reason told her not to be addicted, but deep down in her heart, she still had a little delusion.

She fancied that she was different in the emperor's heart.

But now, seeing the emperor getting close to other concubines with her own eyes, she suddenly woke up again.

She knew that her delusions were nothing but delusions.

The emperor treated her like any other woman.

She can no longer wishful thinking.

The emperor noticed that Hua Jieyu had been looking at him but didn't speak, so he turned to look at her and asked.

"Are you also here to bring me soup?"

Hua Qingqing tried her best to suppress the uncomfortable emotions in her heart, pretending that nothing happened, and said relaxedly.

"That's right, I stewed pigeon soup. I didn't expect Yin Meiren to cook soup for His Majesty. If I had known this, I wouldn't have done it."

After she finished speaking, she deliberately sighed, pretending to be jealous.

Seeing this, the emperor laughed softly: "Look at what you said, it seems that I deliberately neglected you."

Hua Qingqing snorted softly: "You haven't come to Wangyuexuan for many days, don't you just neglect my concubine?"

The emperor walked over to hold her hand, pulled her to sit on the soft couch, and explained patiently.

"I'm too busy these days, I don't have time to see you and the baby in your belly, don't be annoyed, I will definitely see you when I'm done."

Hua Qingqing is very calm now.

She knew that what the emperor said could not be taken seriously.

He said that he would go to see her when he was done with work. Maybe he really thought so at this moment, but he might forget about it the next moment.

After all, this kind of sweet talk to coax the concubine is really insignificant to him, so there is no need for him to bother to remember it.

Hua Qingqing thought thoroughly in her heart, as if she had been coaxed, she asked in a soft tone.

"real?"

The emperor: "I say what I say, and it is naturally true."

Only then did Hua Qingqing smile again, and her beautiful eyes shone brightly.

In order to show fairness, the emperor also tasted the pigeon soup sent by Hua Jieyu, and praised her cooking skills.
