Chapter 122 The Queen Wants to Raise the 4th Prince

After leaving Anlan Garden, the emperor prepared to go to Qinzheng Palace. On the way, he remembered that he had not been to Changchun Xianguan for a few days, so he prepared to go see the queen. He walked straight into the palace without notifying anyone. Before he saw anyone, he only heard Jianqiu say, "My queen, these lotus seeds are hard to peel. Be careful or your hands will hurt."

"The emperor likes to eat lotus seeds, so just peel some yourself and then stew lily and lotus seed soup for the emperor." The queen answered as soon as she entered the room.

"Your Majesty's sincerity towards His Majesty is priceless." Jianqiu's compliment really touched the Emperor's heart.

The emperor was very relieved to hear this. The queen was still thinking about him as always. "If your hands hurt, let them peel them for you. I know what you mean." The emperor walked towards the queen's seat with a swift gait.

The queen was stunned for a moment when she saw the emperor coming over, then she hurried down to salute. The emperor held the queen with one hand to stop her from saluting, "You and I don't have to do this as husband and wife."

When the queen heard the emperor's words, she was so moved that she didn't know what to do. The emperor hadn't spoken to her so gently for a long time. Her voice no longer had the dignity she had when facing a concubine. "It's hot outside. Why did the emperor come here at this time? Be careful not to get sunburned."

"I just came out of Anlan Garden and came to see you." The emperor said calmly. He and the queen had been married for many years, and they no longer had the same feelings as before, so he rarely came over except on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month in the past two years.

"How is Lady Jing's foot injury?" The Queen's gentle expression froze a little after hearing An Lanyuan. You came to me from your little lover's place, you really saved time, why didn't you come to see me first. Alas, it seems that I am old and ugly.

"She's fine. Are you used to living here? I asked you to go to Taohuawu a few years ago because I thought it was quiet and convenient for you to recuperate. But as the queen, it's better for you to live here than there." The emperor said while holding the tea that Jianqiu had just served. He didn't care much about the queen in those years and neglected her a little.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am used to it. This place is closest to Your Majesty. Let me show you the lotus seed and lily soup I stewed." When the Queen heard the Emperor's caring words, although she was not as moved as she was at first, she was still very happy.

"Well, you are not in good health, so you should pay more attention to rest. I heard from Lingrong that you should exercise more, so go out for a walk when you have nothing to do." The emperor remembered that Lingrong often took the empress dowager to stroll in the imperial garden after dinner, and the empress dowager's spirits and spirits were better than before.

"Lingrong? Concubine Jing An?" The Queen did not react for a moment to who Lingrong was. Mainly because there were not many people whose names the Emperor could call so intimately.

"It's her. In the spring, she often accompanied the empress dowager to visit the imperial garden. I see that the empress dowager is in better spirits than before. You can go out and enjoy the scenery when you have nothing to do." The emperor was very satisfied with Lingrong. She was lively and had few problems. She had basically not caused him any trouble in the palace for a year.

"Yes." The queen was very dissatisfied to hear the names of other concubines from the emperor's mouth. An's name seemed to appear quite frequently recently, more than Zhen's.

"Your Majesty, today the Fourth Prince came to pay his respects to me," the Queen said, sizing up the Emperor's face. She knew that it was better for people in the palace to have a child. Even if Concubine Hua was domineering, her position would be limited if she didn't have a child. "He came by himself. I saw that he was so thin and small, so it must be that the people who served him were not doing their best."

"Fourth Prince, please take good care of him. He...is my son after all." The emperor really hated his biological mother in the beginning, but now it's just like that.
