Chapter 63 The Emperor Forgoes the Morning Court for An Lingrong

"I feel that the emperor is not old. He is in his prime and in good health. I think you were just sick the day before yesterday and have not recovered yet. Otherwise, the emperor would be even more powerful." As An Lingrong spoke, her voice became even more coquettish.

The next morning, the emperor was a little weak because he was too tired last night, his body was not fully recovered, and he indulged himself too much.

As a result, Su Peisheng shouted outside the door early in the morning for a long time, but there was no response from the emperor, so he stopped shouting. He guessed that the emperor must have been exhausted last night, so he wanted to let him rest for a while.

When he woke up, it was already very bright. According to the emperor's usual schedule, he would have been attending the morning court at this time.

At this moment in the court, all the civil and military officials were waiting for the emperor to come to court. They waited for an hour but the emperor still did not arrive.

Finally, Su Peisheng came to report that the emperor was feeling a little unwell today, so he decided to cancel today's morning court agenda.

When everyone heard this, they left unwillingly and began to privately speculate on the real reason behind the emperor's failure to attend court.

At this moment, the scene appeared where Queen Yixiu was writing a big "喜" character in Jingren Palace.

But the more she wrote, the angrier she became, and she could hardly even hold the brush in her hand.

She first received a report from Zhou Dong, telling her that the assassination attempt had failed, and the queen was very disappointed;

Soon after, Jianqiu came to report that the Emperor had stayed at An Lingrong's house in the Yanxi Palace last night and had not even attended today's morning court session!

Faced with such a situation, Empress Yixiu was furious and resentful, and she was determined to make a big deal out of this matter so that the vixen-like An Lingrong would suffer.

At the same time, she also ordered Jianqiu to immediately give An Lingrong a bowl of contraceptive medicine and never let her get pregnant with the Dragonborn.

Yanxi Palace

When the emperor stood up, he found that it was already very late, but he was not angry.

Su Peisheng knelt before the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, the morning court session has passed. I went to inform the ministers without permission that the emperor was ill and cancelled the morning court session. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Su Peisheng, you are so bold. You are becoming more and more lawless. How dare you make decisions for me?" The emperor's tone was serious and angry at this moment.

Su Peisheng shuddered when he heard this. He didn't dare to make any extra rebuttals.

"It is my fault that I presumptuously guessed the emperor's intentions." Su Peisheng said sincerely.

In fact, the emperor did not blame Su Peisheng for what he did. He had played too much with An Lingrong last night, several times a night, which made his body feel a little exhausted. He really did not want to go to court today.

On the contrary, he felt very relieved that Su Peisheng understood him so well.

But on the surface, as the emperor, the ruler of a country, he does not allow anyone to guess his thoughts. In addition, conveying his orders without authorization is a capital crime and a crime of deceiving the emperor.

For the sake of his face, he still had to pretend to be very angry and give Su Peisheng some punishment as a punishment.

"You will stay in Rong'er's backyard today and kneel for a whole day. You will be fined one year's salary and this will not happen again." The emperor said coldly and got up from the bed.

The emperor made Su Peisheng receive punishment in An Lingrong's backyard. This was for his own sake. After all, Su Peisheng was the eunuch who was most at ease with him and who took the closest care of him. If too many people knew about this, it would damage his reputation.

Secondly, An Lingrong’s backyard is different from the front yard. The backyard is relatively hidden, and visitors may not be able to see someone kneeling in the backyard.

In this matter, Su Peisheng went to inform the ministers to cancel the morning court without the emperor's order, and only An Lingrong, the emperor and Su Peisheng knew about it.

"Yes, I obey your command. Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!" After saying that, Su Peisheng walked to the backyard and knelt under the scorching sun.

An Lingrong now understood how important Su Peisheng was to the emperor. For such a serious crime, he was only punished by kneeling in her secluded backyard for a day and fined a year's salary. This punishment was too light. Although Su Peisheng was a eunuch, his position in the emperor's heart was unmatched by ordinary people.

Thinking of this, she felt that Su Peisheng might be of some use.

"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. Anger is harmful to your health. Eunuch Su did not do it on purpose. Let me change your clothes first." As she said this, An Lingrong attentively helped the emperor put on the dragon robe.

Su Peisheng was in the backyard at this time and heard An Lingrong speaking for him, and he couldn't help but feel touched. He could also see that the emperor's feelings for An Lingrong seemed to be gradually becoming unusual.

"Well, Rong'er is really considerate." As he said that, the emperor gently pinched An Lingrong's face. The feeling was very good, and the emperor's mood also improved.

"Your Majesty, you were tired last night. I will make you some ginseng soup at noon to nourish you, okay?" An Lingrong asked gently with a bright smile.

"Okay, I'll go to the imperial study to review memorials first. Although I haven't attended the morning court yet, I still have official business to do. I'll come over at noon. Don't work too hard, have a good rest and sleep for a while." The emperor also said gently.

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am not tired. As long as I am serving Your Majesty, I will be full of energy." After An Lingrong said this, she turned her head away shyly.

The emperor turned her around, gave her a hug, and then left.

"Xiao Xia Zi, set up the imperial study." The emperor shouted to Xiao Xia Zi who was outside the door.

Jianqiu, who had rushed over from Jingren Palace, had been waiting in a corner of Yanx Palace for a long time. As soon as the emperor left, she would give the bowl of contraceptive soup to An Lingrong to prevent her from getting pregnant with the dragon descendant.

Baojuan had just helped An Lingrong change her clothes, and An Lingrong was looking through the menu, preparing to stew a ginseng soup for the emperor at noon to replenish his energy.

Then Baoque trotted into the room and reported, "My lady, the Queen's personal maid, Aunt Jianqiu, is here."

As soon as An Lingrong heard it, she knew why Jianqiu came.

When Jianqiu walked into the room with a smile on her face, holding a food box in her hand, An Lingrong's guess was confirmed.

"Congratulations to An Dacheng, congratulations to An Dacheng, your servant pays her respects to An Dacheng!" Jianqiu bowed to An Lingrong and said respectfully.

"Excuse me, but I wonder what Jianqiu wants to see me about today?" An Lingrong pretended to be ignorant and asked in a gentle voice.

At this moment Jianqiu's face darkened. Usually An Lingrong would respectfully address her as "Aunt", but today she omitted these two words.

At the same time, she pretended not to know the purpose of her visit. She was really ungrateful. A mere promise was made, but she treated her, the Queen's personal maid, like this.

"The Queen has ordered me to bring some nourishing medicine to Lady An. Please enjoy it." Jianqiu's voice sounded a little arrogant at this moment.

Su Peisheng, who was kneeling in the backyard at this moment, also heard the conversation between the two people in the house.

As soon as he heard it, he knew that the tonic soup was not a simple tonic soup, but might be a contraceptive soup, but he couldn't be completely sure and didn't dare to make any rash assertions.

An Lingrong thought for a moment, then deliberately knocked over the medicine that Jianqiu handed over, and shouted loudly:

"Ah...Jianqiu, how could the Queen be so cruel that she actually sent you to bring me contraceptive soup? If I really am pregnant with a dragon offspring, wouldn't you want to harm the emperor's dragon offspring?"

When Jianqiu heard An Lingrong's bold words, she couldn't help but panic and thought: Why is An Lingrong so unusual today?
