System: Rescue the Blackened Prince

Chapter 68

The Empress Dowager escaped the summer heat in the palace and did not return to the palace until autumn.

During this period, although Weiying had Jiang Ru's criminal evidence in his hands, he did not take any further action.On the one hand, it was because he still had some concerns about the queen mother in his heart, and on the other hand, it was because the child in Wen Li's womb had been more than half a year old, and Wei Ying didn't want to cause any disturbance at this time, so he wanted to wait until Wen Li gave birth before doing anything .

After escorting the queen mother back, General Pei went to restore the emperor's life before leaving the palace.

Wei Ying also did not go to the Longevity Palace to greet the Queen Mother, but went directly to the Changle Palace.Wen Li's abdomen is obviously swollen now, and it is inconvenient to move. Wei Ying tried his best to bring the memorial to Changle Palace for review, and he would feel uneasy guarding Wen Li from time to time.

Especially after the incident of drugging Sanhuang, although Wen Li said that nothing would happen, Weiying already had a grudge against the four of Hongrui in her heart, and no matter how she looked at them, she felt that the four of them were disgusting.

Life for Hongrui and the others was not easy. Even the blind could feel the coldness in the emperor's eyes when he looked at them, let alone them with sharp eyes.

But as the empress got closer and closer to the delivery date, the emperor came to Changle Palace more and more frequently.Especially recently, he has moved almost all court affairs to Changle Palace to handle, and he also lives in Changle Palace at night. Except for the morning court, the emperor and the queen are stuck together almost all the time, which also means that they are almost always together. They could see the emperor all the time, which made them feel that the heads on their necks were particularly loose.

After seeing Pei Heng today, Weiying asked Eunuch Li to bring the unfinished memorials to Changle Palace as usual.As soon as she walked to the study, she saw Wen Li sitting at the table with bright eyes looking at herself.

Weiying frowned, pursed her lips and asked with a smile: "Is Li'er here specially waiting for me?"

Wen Li nodded, and just about to stand up, Wei Ying quickly supported her, "Don't move, just sit down."

So when Eunuch Li came in, he saw the empress sitting comfortably while the emperor stood aside.He shook his head in his heart, the emperor was really eaten to death by the empress.

"Is the Queen Mother back?" Wen Li looked at Wei Ying and asked straight to the point.

Weiying nodded with a smile and said, "The Queen Mother is back, but General Pei is not."

"Why?" As soon as Wen Li asked this question, she felt that she had been tricked by Wei Ying, and quickly changed her words, "I don't care whether General Pei comes back or not."

Look at my sincere eyes.

Weiying continued to laugh, "Oh, it turns out that Li'er cares about the Queen Mother so much."

Wen Li also smiled, "Yes."

Eunuch Li standing next to him shivered silently, "Emperor and Empress, the weather has turned cold, so you should stop releasing the cold air."

After both of them had laughed enough, Wei Ying helped Wen Li up, and walked cautiously towards the bedroom, "It's getting late, you should rest early, don't think about it."

"Oh." Wen Li responded, and turned her head to look at Wei Ying beside her, "Do you need to greet the Queen Mother tomorrow?" After all, that is the Queen Mother too.

"No, I will pay my respects to the queen mother, so don't run around."

"Oh." Wen Li's current body really can't run around, she finds it troublesome even to walk.But I don't know if I can meet General Pei when I go to the Royal Garden. He seems to hang out there often. I heard people say that if you look at more beautiful things during pregnancy, your child will look better.

Just as she was thinking about it, she felt her arm was gently pinched. Wen Li turned her head and saw Wei Ying looking at her with some displeasure, "What are you thinking?" He felt that he really It is necessary to find a reason to dismiss Pei Heng.

Wen Li blinked her eyes and said, "I was thinking, our child will be as handsome as you."

Weiying: "..."

This kind of words really makes people refute it, and it’s not refuted, it’s so distressing.

Wei Ying was about to pinch Wen Li's arm again, when the person beside him suddenly cried out, bent over and stopped moving.Surprised, Wei Ying quickly stopped, "What's wrong with you?"

Wen Li raised her head and looked at Wei Ying tearfully, "He kicked me again."

Seeing Wen Li's aggrieved expression, Wei Ying couldn't help but laugh, "It's okay, I'll kick you back in the future."

Wen Li: "..."

Do you think I will give birth to a football.

Thinking of this, Wen Li suddenly thought of Nezha. I heard that it was Mrs. Li who was born after three years of pregnancy...a meat ball.

Helped by Wei Ying to lie down on the bed, Wen Li's thoughts were still spinning on the meat ball.Weiying looked at the person on the bed with wide open eyes who refused to sleep, lowered her head and kissed her face, "Li'er, close your eyes."

Wen Li pouted and asked, "Is this an imperial decree?"

Weiying laughed and said, "So what if it is, so what if it's not?"

"If it is, the concubine can only obey the order, if not, I plan to keep my eyes open."

Weiying: "..."

I don't know if it was affected by the fetus in the womb, Wen Li's temperament has become more and more like a child recently.

With a straight face, Wei Ying said in a deep voice, "This is an imperial decree."

Wen Li twitched the corners of her lips in disappointment, and asked, "Will the Nine Clans be punished if they resist the decree?"

Wei Ying stretched out her hand and pinched her pink and tender face, "You are not allowed to resist the order."

Wen Li's eyes flickered a few times, and finally closed.But after being quiet for a few seconds, she asked unwillingly, "Wei Ying, what if I give birth to a meat ball?"

Weiying: "..."

Let Imperial Physician Wen come and prescribe some medicine for the Queen tomorrow.

After finally Wen Li fell asleep in a daze, Wei Yingcai went to the study and began to critique the memorial.The hall was very quiet, only Hongrui waited in the study, adding oil to the lamps and studying ink for the emperor from time to time.

There was still a faint incense burning in the incense burner at the corner of the table, which was specially prepared by Imperial Physician Wen for Wen Li, who said it could help her calm down.Wei Ying didn't think there was anything wrong with Wen Li at first, but now it seems that pregnancy can really change people's temperament, and it is necessary to calm down their emotions.

As the night was getting dark, Eunuch Li looked at Wei Ying's tired face, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, it's getting late, let's rest first."

Wei Ying glanced at the pile of memorials that were left with a smile, and shook her head, "Let's just play with these." Recently, because most of the time during the day is spent with Wen Li, Wei Ying can only wait for Wen Li to sleep at night , work overtime.

Eunuch Li pursed his lips, said nothing, and stepped aside again.Seeing that the red ink in the inkstone was almost used up, Hongrui went up to grind it for the emperor again.

Although Hongrui is a maidservant, her hands are very beautiful, her index finger is slender, like cutting onion roots.Although there are some calluses on the hands, but you can't see it unless you look carefully.

For some reason, Weiying was suddenly attracted by Hongrui's hands.Feeling the emperor's gaze focused on her hand, Hongrui pursed her lips slightly, but her hands did not dare to stop.

Eunuch Li frowned slightly as he looked at the emperor's eyes.Although he has not been a man for a long time, he has been a man before, and he can understand the physiological needs of men.Ordinary men still have three wives and four concubines, let alone emperors.

But... the empress is lying next door!Your majesty, if you sleep with other women here, the harem will definitely be turned upside down tomorrow.

And the unlucky ones in the end must be their servants.

Just when Eunuch Li wanted to step forward to interrupt the hot gaze of the emperor, the emperor stood up from his seat and went straight to the queen's bedroom.

Eunuch Li looked at the direction he was leaving, and finally heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.Before leaving, Eunuch Li looked at Hongrui calmly, and then followed the footsteps of the emperor.

Wen Li didn't sleep soundly all the time, so even though Wei Ying was very careful, she still alarmed Wen Li.

Sensing a heat source approaching beside her, Wen Li lazily raised her eyelids, and called Weiying in a tooting voice.

Wei Ying gently embraced Wen Li, held her soft little hand, and squeezed out the word "um" from her throat.

Wen Li felt that there was something wrong with Weiying's voice, so she pulled herself together again, opened one eye and looked sideways at Weiying, "What's wrong with you?"

Wei Ying lowered her head and took a deep breath on Wen Li's neck, "It's okay, go to sleep."

"Hmm..." Wen Li's voice was full of tiredness, she responded softly, and then closed her eyes again.

Seeing that the person in her arms was breathing steadily, Wei Ying just hugged her like this and slowly closed her eyes.

The posture of the two of them has not changed overnight.Wei Yingtian woke up naturally before dawn, got up lightly, got dressed, and was ready to go to the morning court.

When passing outside the hall, Wei Ying frowned subconsciously when she saw Hongrui standing by her side.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he did suddenly have an impulse towards Hongrui last night.He thinks he is a person who does not indulge in lust—well, when he is not facing Wen Li, he is not a person who indulges in desire—and he does not have any desire for anyone other than Wen Li, but last night he suddenly fell in love with Hongrui had an impulse that she shouldn't have.

Although he didn't do anything in the end, he still felt that this matter was not normal.Could it really be caused by not having sex with Wen Li for too long?
Seeing the emperor staring at Hongrui again, Eunuch Li coughed dryly and said to Wei Ying: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, it's time to go to court."

Wei Ying pursed her lips, looked away, and walked out of the hall.

Eunuch Li walked behind Weiying, and took another look at Hongrui.Where did the emperor fall in love with this girl?She thinks Luluo is more beautiful than Hongrui.Is it because Hongrui used to be a girl in the Queen's house, so the emperor loves Wuji?
Eunuch Li was still thinking, when Wei Ying who was walking in front suddenly said: "Eunuch Li, go and invite Imperial Physician Wen to wait in Changle Palace."
