Big businessman and little fisherman

Chapter 365 Stealing the Dragon
Yuehua Palace is very close to Taiji Hall.

The courtyard is full of flowers and plants, and even the walls are covered with roses, either red or pink, blooming in full bloom.

The leaves are like velvet, and the flowers are like brocade.

The emperor's dragon chariot left the empress dowager's Renshou Palace and turned directly into the Yuehua Palace where Lu Meiren was. When the emperor entered the Yuehua Palace, a little maid in a green dress who had just cut her hair ran past the flowers and went straight to the palace. The Jiaofang Palace where the queen lived.

This Yuehua Palace is the palace where the beauty Lu Qingluan lives.

Whenever the flowers bloom, the maids of various palaces always want to take a detour to Yuehua Palace, whether they go to the Imperial Dining Room or the Clothes Clothes Bureau.

Originally, there was no one living in Yuehua Palace, so I just took a look at it, even if the passing maids picked a few flowers to please their master, or picked one or two of their own hairpin flowers, no one said anything.

Now, the beauty of the emperor Xinna lives in Yuehua Palace.Not to mention that the emperor rests here for half a month a month.Even the queen mother summoned Lu Qingluan to speak from time to time.

There was that maid who wanted to pick flowers, even if she happened to pass by, she couldn't help but stop thinking.

Since Lu Qingluan entered the palace, the emperor spent most of the time in Yuehua Palace, and the empress only went to sit there on the first and fifteenth day of the Lunar New Year.

Because the emperor seldom goes there, and she is pregnant, the queen seldom comes out in Jiaofang Hall these days.

Either it was windy yesterday, or it was cold today, or it was morning sickness, and I didn't want to move after eating or drinking.

Even on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the queen mother entertained the ladies of the various houses to make zongzi in the palace. The queen just came to sit and sit.

The wives of each mansion are clear-sighted, and the queen's behavior can be said to be pregnant and spoiled, and it is not wrong to say that she is jealous of the emperor's new beauty.

It's just that everyone said this behind their backs, and no one dared to discuss it in the open.

The emperor originally favored the empress alone, and the empress gave birth to a prince, and she became pregnant again after taking off her filial piety.Back then, there was only one empress and one concubine in the palace, and Wu Yueniang tried to be strong but was not pregnant. Some people said that Empress Gongsun was a powerful one.

After Wu Yueniang died, the emperor has now accepted a beauty, and someone said that the queen's status has been stabilized, and it is indeed time for a newcomer to enter the palace.

But when everyone saw the queen lonely, there was an indescribable joy in their hearts.

Whose family's men don't have wives and concubines hugging left and right in groups, but the emperor has a deep affection for the queen, not to mention the fact that there are no drafts or concubines in the palace, and even the only concubine Wu Yueniang is left alone.

It would be a lie to say that you are not jealous, but everyone is a little envious.

Now the emperor has accepted beauties again, although there is only one empress and one beauties in the palace, but everyone feels happy for some reason.

It turns out that even if she is a queen, she is not much different from them, or even inferior to them.

If a man wants to take a concubine, he has to ask his wife. If the emperor wants to choose a concubine, he doesn't need to ask the queen.

What the wives of various prefectures said when they went back, the queen didn't know.

At this moment, the queen was sitting in front of the window, with her head bowed, sewing her little coat.

She will give birth in another four months, and her belly is getting bigger day by day, and her energy is gradually failing to keep up.

It doesn't matter if the emperor accepts a beauty, there is only one child in the palace, Xing'er, and there are only two children in her stomach.

Two children are still too few, and they have to spread their branches and leaves.

It would be a lie to say that she is not sad, but the queen has not yet lost her mind due to jealousy.

When Yange left, she had told her to take good care of her body and give birth to the child in a smooth and healthy manner, and she didn't care what the emperor did.

She didn't understand the meaning of Lu Yange's words. Could it be that he felt guilty for bringing Lu Qingluan into the palace, so he told her more?
Seeing that the Queen was in a daze while she was doing needlework, Tao Hong knew that the Queen was not feeling well.

The empress was seriously ill and frail. Although she was taken care of by the imperial physician in the palace, she often caught cold inadvertently.

Others thought that the queen was playing with her temper, deliberately using the child in her belly as an excuse to win the emperor's favor.

Only people around the queen knew that the queen was so weak because of her heavy body and severe vomiting.

"Ma'am, the milk is ready."

Liu Lu came over with freshly boiled milk, and said softly, "This is freshly boiled milk, Madam, please use some while it's hot."

Strange to say, the queen started to have morning sickness when she was more than two months pregnant, almost throwing up whatever she ate.

Later, when Princess Changle entered the palace, she boiled milk for the queen herself, but the queen drank a bowl full of it and still didn't vomit.

The princess also said that drinking milk is good for the body, and told the queen to drink one or two bowls every day, or she could use milk to make some snacks for the queen to change her appetite.

The dim sum made of milk was originally available in the palace, but the queen didn't like it very much.Princess Changle personally wrote a few milk-based dim sum recipes and sent them to the imperial dining room, and the queen of dim sum could use more of them.

This milk became the panacea for the queen to save her life.

Drink a bowl when you can't eat, and another bowl when you can't sleep at night.

I still vomited during pregnancy, but it was not as severe as before. I vomited whatever I ate.

A bowl of milk, the queen can drink it all in one sitting on weekdays.

Today, she was a little bit unable to eat, and she put it down after only using half a bowl.

"Miss?"

Liu Lu wanted to persuade her, but Tao Hong hurriedly gave her a wink, and she shut up knowingly.

When Liu Lu cleaned up the milk bowl, the queen turned her head and saw Liu Lu who was supposed to go out was still standing in the room, she couldn't help asking: "What's the matter?"

"It's...that's..."

Liu Lu hesitated, but still said the little maid's words, "The emperor went to sit with the empress dowager, and then went to Yuehua Palace."

Tao Hong Liu Lu is Gongsun Wanying's maid who was used by her side in her natal family. She grew up together since she was a child, so she is naturally caring.

During this period of time, newcomers entered the palace, the emperor seldom came, and the empress was full of worries, so Liu Lu had a heart.

Whether the queen doesn't care about it or not, as a maid, she has to share the burden for the master.

Hearing this, Gongsun Wanying suddenly raised her head: "Have you sent someone to keep an eye on the emperor?"

"No, no..."

Saying that, Liu Lu knelt down, "Your Majesty, servant girl, servant girl just, just asked a little girl to watch, and... not..."

"Peach Red and Willow Green, you all grew up with me, you should know my temperament."

Gongsun Wanying's face darkened, and Tao Hong who was beside her didn't dare to sit any longer, so she knelt down with Liu Lu.

"This is your first offence. If you let me know that there will be another time, you will get out of the palace."

"Miss."

Liu Lu still wanted to explain, but was forced to stop by Tao Hong's sleeves.

Gongsun Wanying smiled wearily: "You all go out and leave me alone."

These days, she was in a daze and didn't know what to think, which made the two maids mess up.

She should really think about it, the emperor, the princess, the queen mother, and the new beauty Lu, what is going on between them is something she doesn't know.
