Abandoned Concubine's Promotion

Chapter 272 Missed
"You child, you have a heart. You said to send peach blossoms to Ai's family, so you sent peach blossoms. Now you have sent peach blossom cakes. It's just that Ai's family is infected with the cold, so I'm afraid it won't taste good."

Leaning on the soft bed, the queen mother looked at Su Qingyan, smiled and said, in the morning, she just received the peach blossoms sent by Su Qingyan's order, and in the afternoon, she received the peach blossom cake.

"Has the imperial doctor been here?" Su Qingyan asked after knowing that the queen mother had contracted the cold, and stretched out her hand to help the queen mother pull the blanket up.

"Returning to Chen Zhaoyi, the imperial doctor has already come and said that it is not a problem, and it is good to take care of it now, but, because of the cold, the queen mother's appetite is not very good."

Blessing Su Qingyan, Madam Lu replied, besides the emperor, the only one who can make the queen mother happy in the harem is Chen Zhaoyi.

The emperor was busy with court affairs and couldn't come here all the time, but Chen Zhaoyi often came to accompany the empress dowager and read Buddhist scriptures to her.

"I don't have a good appetite. You might as well ask Shangshanfang to prepare some hawthorns and make small pieces of hawthorn jelly for an appetizer." When Su Qingyan had a bad appetite, she used this method, and the effect was quite good.

"Lu Nanny, you can go and tell me in a while. Speaking of which, the Ai family hasn't eaten hawthorn cake for a long time." After hearing Su Qingyan's words, the Queen Mother looked at Lu Nanny and gave orders.

"Yes." She replied, seeing that the Queen Mother had something she wanted to eat, Mother Lu was naturally very happy.

"Good boy, quickly give Ai's family a piece of your peach blossom cake. No matter what, it's your filial piety. Of course Ai's family must try it." After ordering Nanny Lu, the Empress Dowager looked at Su Qingyan and said with a smile.

Su Qingyan responded with a smile, and after cleaning her hands, she picked up a piece of peach blossom cake and brought it to the Empress Dowager's mouth.

Holding Su Qingyan's hand, the queen mother tasted it carefully. Although she couldn't taste it because of the cold, she could always taste the delicateness and melt in the mouth of the peach blossom cake.

"I hope the wind and cold in Aijia will get better soon, so that I can have a good taste." After eating a piece of peach blossom cake, the queen mother smiled and said, she took Su Qingyan's hand, and kept wearing it on her wrist. The beeswax Buddha beads she was wearing were put on Su Qingyan's wrist.

"This string of Buddha beads has been with the Ai family for more than ten years. The Ai family has always carried it. I gave it to you today. I hope you can give birth to an heir for the emperor soon." After wearing it, the queen mother patted Su Qingyan's hand , said with a smile.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager." The elder gave it to him, but he dared not resign. This was the Empress Dowager's wish, and Su Qingyan naturally accepted it with a smile.

"Okay, don't stay here with the old lady Aijia. Seeing that your maid is still carrying a food box, it must be for the emperor, right? Go quickly."

Su Qingyan had planned before that after delivering the cakes to the Empress Dowager, she would go to deliver peach blossom cakes to Emperor Jing. In order not to make trouble, when she came to Shoukang Palace, she directly packed two food boxes.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother had sharp eyes and noticed it directly. Su Qingyan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Go, the emperor is busy recently, so he probably won't eat on time, maybe he is hungry now." Seeing Su Qingyan's expression, the queen mother spoke again, Su Qingyan got up and saluted, and then retreated.

When Su Qingyan left, Nanny Lu looked at the queen mother, and said with a smile, "You seem to like Chen Zhaoyi more and more now."

"He's a good boy. He's more filial than the queen." After listening to Nanny Lu, the queen mother smiled and said, it's difficult for Nanny Lu to answer the question. She just needs to listen carefully.

"Ai's family is a bit tired. You help Ai's family to go to sleep for a while, remember to tell the kitchen to prepare some hawthorn cake for Ai's family." Not expecting Nanny Lu to speak, the Queen Mother looked at her and ordered again.

In response, Nanny Lu helped the queen mother up and walked towards the inner room.

…………

After leaving Shoukang Palace, Su Qingyan sent the sedan chair directly to the Imperial Study Room. She had sent someone to inquire before, and knew that Emperor Jing was in the Imperial Study Room at this hour.

What Su Qingyan didn't expect was that when she was going to the imperial study, Kang Ninghai took his things to Guanju Palace, and knowing that Su Qingyan was not there, he had no choice but to put down his things, and then headed towards Shoukang Palace.

When Su Qingyan arrived at the imperial study and met Emperor Jing, Kang Ninghai arrived at Shoukang Palace.

"It seems that Kang Ninghai missed you." Coming out from behind the desk, Emperor Jing sat beside Su Qingyan and reviewed the memorial for a long time. He was indeed a little hungry.

"Do you want to send someone to look for him?" Su Qingyan asked him after hearing what Emperor Jing had said.

"The people in Shoukang Palace should know about your coming to see me, and they will definitely tell him." Reaching out to open the food box, and taking out the peach blossom cake inside, Emperor Jing smiled and said.

As he said so, Su Qingyan nodded, poured a cup of tea for Emperor Jing, and watched him taste the peach blossom cake.

"It tastes good." Su Qingyan's craftsmanship is still good, and after trying several times, the cakes she made naturally taste very good. Emperor Jing was already hungry, so he ate several pieces in a row.

"Now the flowers in the harem are blooming. If the emperor likes it, I can make it for you in different ways." Su Qingyan smiled and said after being praised by Emperor Jing.

"Then I'm lucky." After taking a sip of tea, Emperor Jing responded with a smile. He looked at Su Qingyan and noticed the beeswax beads on her wrist.

"Is this Buddhist beads given by the queen mother?" Putting down the teacup, Emperor Jing took Su Qingyan's arm and asked her.

After all, it is the Queen Mother's personal belongings, and Emperor Jing is naturally familiar with it. Now that he is wearing it on Su Qingyan's wrist, Emperor Jing is still very happy. After all, it represents a kind of recognition.

"Your Majesty has good eyesight. When I went to Shoukang Palace today, the Empress Dowager gave it to me. The Empress Dowager also said that she hoped that my concubine could help the Emperor as soon as possible."

Having said that, Su Qingyan couldn't help touching her lower abdomen, with a melancholy expression on her face.

"Ah Qing, children are fate. We are young, and we will have children sooner or later. Besides, I have been busy with court affairs recently, and I don't have time to work hard with you. It's normal if I'm not pregnant."

Seeing Su Qingyan's expression, Emperor Jing comforted her. Although he really hoped that Su Qingyan would conceive a child sooner, he also knew that there was no rush.

When Emperor Jing said this, Su Qingyan nodded. She knew that there was no rush, but she still couldn't help but look forward to it. Nanny Jin also persuaded her about this matter. Although she listened, she didn't listen.

"I've been busy for a long time. I guess you're tired too. Go take a break and have dinner with me tonight?" Looking at the tiredness on Su Qingyan's face, he knew that she hadn't taken a nap today, Emperor Jing said softly, Discuss with her.

Nodding her head, Su Qingyan stood up and walked towards the small room where she could rest in the imperial study. Just a few steps away, a young eunuch came in from the outside and saluted Emperor Jing.

"My Majesty, Concubine Xian is here..."
