After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

Chapter 41: Concubine Rong needs Your Majesty more than I do

"Mother! I really don't know how you endured it?" At this moment, Princess Xuanhua felt very distressed for her mother, and even felt some resentment towards her father.

The Queen Mother, however, understood everything and smiled calmly, "We have to endure these days, who hasn't endured them?"

Princess Xuanhua was stunned. She actually thought about her future. Would she be like her mother and the emperor's sister-in-law in the future...

That night, Xiao Xuanchen went to Weiyang Palace.

Jinhua Palace

Murong Yue hasn't slept yet, she is still waiting for Xiao Xuanchen.

Die Yun walked into the bedroom and saw that she was still awake, so she advised: "My queen, it's late, you should go to bed quickly!"

Murong Yue had a sad face and said sadly: "Your Majesty, why didn't you come tonight? Today I was diagnosed with pregnancy, why didn't Your Majesty come to accompany me?"

"Your Majesty went to Weiyang Palace." Dieyun said helplessly.

"I know." Murong Yue said in a low voice.

Murong Yue had never wanted to compete with the Queen, but tonight, she...she especially hoped that His Majesty could accompany her.

It is only natural for your Majesty to go to the Weiyang Palace. After all, the Empress is your Majesty's legal wife, and the baby in her belly is your Majesty's legitimate son.

"The Empress is the legal wife, and I, although ranked among the four concubines, am only a concubine in the final analysis. Even if I am pregnant, how can I compare to the legitimate child in the Empress' belly?" Murong Yue's eyes were filled with tears, she felt aggrieved, but it seemed that she had no right to feel aggrieved.

Die Yun comforted her, "Don't think like that, Your Majesty. His Majesty still dotes on you very much. Among all the concubines who entered the palace with you, you are the first to be pregnant with a dragon heir. No one else can compare to you in this respect."

Murong Yue gently stroked her belly and said with a choked voice: "I don't know if it's a prince or a princess. If it's a prince, everyone will be happy, but if it's just a princess..."

"Your Highness, please relax. It doesn't matter if it's a princess. You are still so young, and you will eventually have a prince."

"I hope so!" Murong Yue raised her head, staring at the night sky, a tear falling down her cheek.

Weiyang Palace

Zheng Xiyan didn't react much to Xiao Xuanchen's arrival.

"His Majesty!"

"Go to bed early!" Xiao Xuanchen said softly.

The two of them had already washed up and were sitting on the bed in their pajamas. Zheng Xiyan said, "Sister Rongfei is pregnant. Your Majesty should also visit her more often."

Xiao Xuanchen suddenly asked: "Do you want me to visit Concubine Rong more often?"

"Rong Fei is pregnant now, Your Majesty should visit her more often. I am fine. I know Your Majesty is thinking about me, and that is enough."

"Besides, I still have my mother by my side. Concubine Rong needs Your Majesty more than I do." Zheng Xiyan smiled and spoke in a gentle voice.

Zheng Xiyan's words fully demonstrated her magnanimity and thoughtfulness as a queen, but Xiao Xuanchen felt very depressed after hearing them.

"I understand." Xiao Xuanchen said in a deep voice.

"I'm a little sleepy. I'm going to sleep first." Zheng Xiyan went straight to the bed and lay down.

Xiao Xuanchen looked at her and always felt that she seemed to care less and less about him since she became pregnant.

Lying beside her and just about to reach out to hug her to fall asleep, Zheng Xiyan turned over and soon fell asleep.

Xiao Xuanchen took the initiative to move closer to her, held her in his arms, and kissed her earlobe.

Zheng Xiyan didn't sleep at all. Feeling his disgusting behavior, she felt so uncomfortable.

But now she can only endure it. When she is not able to control everything, she can only endure it.

After winter came, Zheng Xiyan became even lazier. After several heavy snowfalls, Zheng Xiyan ordered to cancel the greetings from various palaces. She was too lazy to meet them.

The snow outside the window was falling heavier and heavier. Zheng Xiyan sat in front of the window, admiring the snow scene. The outside was covered with silver.

"My queen, don't get too close to the window. Be careful not to catch a cold." Biluo warned.

"Oh! It snows so heavily, it would be nice to make a snowman." Zheng Xiyan looked at the white snow and wanted to go out and make a snowman.

"The Queen still loves making snowmen like she did when she was a child." Biluo said with a smile.

When Zheng Xiyan was young, her father and mother would accompany her to build snowmen every winter.

Princess Chengyang came in with a bowl of duck soup and said, "What are you talking about?"

"Princess, the queen wants to build a snowman." Biluo replied with a smile.

After hearing this, Princess Chengyang said with a smile: "You! You still have the mind of a child."

"Mother, my daughter is just a child in front of you." Zheng Xiyan leaned on Princess Chengyang's shoulder and acted coquettishly.

"Yes! Drink this bowl of duck soup quickly." Princess Chengyang looked at her lovingly.

"it is good!"

Jinhua Palace

Xiao Xuanchen went to Jinhua Palace for lunch. Murong Yue was overjoyed. Since she became pregnant, she had been looking forward to His Majesty visiting her every day.

"I respectfully welcome your Majesty."

Xiao Xuanchen did not go forward to help her, but sat directly on the couch, without any extra expression on his face, and said: "Get up! You are pregnant, so don't be so polite in the future."

There was a hint of disappointment in Murong Yue's eyes, because she could feel that His Majesty did not care much about her. Even when he came to see her, she had never seen any joy on his face, including the moment he learned that she was pregnant.

Die Yun stepped forward and helped her up, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Then she sat opposite Xiao Xuanchen and forced herself to smile, "Your Majesty, I have ordered someone to prepare a few dishes that you like. Please try them later."

"You are thoughtful." Xiao Xuanchen's tone was very calm.

Murong Yue had no choice but to continue speaking, "Your Majesty! Can you guess whether this baby of mine is a prince or a princess?"

Xiao Xuanchen was not interested and said perfunctorily: "The prince and princess are both fine."

Murong Yue's face changed and she felt very aggrieved.

The two men sat opposite each other while they had their meal, but the hall was very quiet.

Every time Murong Yue said something, Xiao Xuanchen responded perfunctorily. Until the end of lunch, Xiao Xuanchen didn't even give her a smile.

After Xiao Xuanchen finished his meal, he wiped his mouth and said, "I will go back to the Purple Palace to review the memorials first."

Murong Yue quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off."

"It's cold outside, don't come out." Xiao Xuanchen just left this sentence and left in a hurry.

No care, no love, it's like you've never been there.

After Xiao Xuanchen left, Murong Yue sat down helplessly, with a sad face and tears in her eyes. She asked blankly, "Die Yun, I haven't seen His Majesty smile at me since I got pregnant. Do you think His Majesty doesn't want me to get pregnant? He doesn't like this child."

"How could that be? This is His Majesty's child, how could His Majesty not like him? Your Majesty, don't think too much, maybe His Majesty is busy with government affairs." Die Yun hurriedly comforted her.

"But I have seen him smile to the Queen, and it was not like that at all." Murong Yue said while crying.

"Miss!"

"Perhaps in your Majesty's heart, there is only the Queen, and no one else."
