Chapter 365 Stealing the Dragon

Yuehua Palace is very close to Taiji Hall.

The courtyard is filled with 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 carriage left the Queen Mother's Renshou Palace and turned directly into the Yuehua Palace where Lu Meiren was. When the emperor entered the Yuehua Palace, a little palace maid in green clothes who had just grown her hair ran past the flowers and went straight to

Jiaofang Hall where the Queen lives.

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

Whenever the flowers bloom, the maids of various palaces, whether they are going to the Royal Kitchen or the Clothing Bureau, always want to take a detour to Yuehua Palace to take a look.

Originally, no one lived in the Yuehua Palace, so they just looked around. Even if the palace maids passing by picked a few flowers to please their master, or picked one or two flowers for their own hairpins, no one said anything.

Now, the emperor's new beauty has moved into the Yuehua Palace. Not to mention that the emperor spends half of the month resting here. Even the Queen Mother summons Lu Qingluan to talk to her from time to time.

There is a palace maid who wants to pick flowers. Even if she happens to pass by, she can't help but stop thinking.

Since Lu Qingluan entered the palace, the emperor has spent most of his time in Yuehua Palace, and the queen will only go and sit there on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month.

Liu Lu brought over the freshly boiled milk and said softly, "This is the freshly boiled milk. Please use some while it's hot."

A bowl of milk can usually be drank by the queen in one go.

Now the emperor has accepted another beauty. Although there are only one beauty and one beauty in the palace, everyone feels happy for some reason.

Gongsun Wanying's face darkened, and Taohong beside her didn't dare to sit anymore, and knelt down with Liu Lu.

When I can't eat, I drink a bowl, and when I can't sleep at night, I drink another bowl.

"It's just...it's..."

During these days, there were new people in the palace, the emperor rarely came, the queen was preoccupied, and Liu Lu had more ulterior motives in her heart.

"This is your first offense. If you let me know about it again, you will get out of the palace."

It turns out that even the queen is not much different from them, and is even worse than them.

But when everyone saw the queen's loneliness, they felt an indescribable joy in their hearts.

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

"No, no..."

When Xiang Ge left, he told her to take good care of her body and give birth to the child smoothly and healthily. She should not care what the emperor did.

Saying that, Liu Lu knelt down and said, "Empress, slave, slave, I just asked a little girl to watch, and... didn't..."

Later, Princess Changle entered the palace and boiled milk with her own hands for the queen to drink. The queen actually drank a full bowl without vomiting.

"Peach is red and willow is green, you all grew up with me, so you should know my temperament."

Because the emperor rarely visits and is pregnant, the queen rarely comes out of Jiaofang Hall these days.

This milk became the elixir of life for the queen.

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

She didn't understand what Lu Xiangge meant. Could it be that Xiangge felt guilty for bringing Lu Qingluan into the palace, so he warned her more?

When Taohong saw the Queen lost in thought while doing needlework, she knew that the Queen was not feeling well.

If a man wants to take a concubine, he has to ask his wife. If the emperor wants to choose a concubine, he does not need to ask the queen.

The queen was seriously ill from the illness and was weak. Although she was cared for by the palace doctors, she often caught colds inadvertently.

Even on the Dragon Boat Festival, when the Queen Mother entertained ladies from various palaces to make rice dumplings in the palace, the Queen only came to sit there for a while. When the rice dumpling leaves and glutinous rice were served, she excused herself to feel chest tightness and went back to her Jiao Fang Palace.

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

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

After Wu Yueniang's death, the emperor now accepted another beauty. Some people said that the queen's status was now stable, and it was really time for a new person to enter the palace.

Strangely enough, the queen started to suffer from morning sickness after more than two months of pregnancy. She would vomit almost everything she ate.

Regardless of whether the emperor has adopted a beauty, there is only one child in the palace, Xing'er, and the one in her belly is only two.

Morning sickness is still there, but not as severe as before. I vomit whatever I eat.

"Empress?"

It's just that everyone talks about it behind their backs, and no one dares to discuss it publicly.

The queen doesn't know what the wives of each mansion said when they returned home.

This milk snack recipe was originally available in the palace, but the queen didn't like it very much. Princess Changle wrote several recipes for milk snacks and sent them to the imperial kitchen. The queen was able to use more of the snacks she made.

Whose man doesn't have a group of wives and concubines hugging each other, but the emperor is passionately devoted to the queen. There is no draft or concubine in the palace, and even the only concubine Wu Yueniang is left to hang out.

The emperor originally only doted on the queen, but the queen gave birth to the prince, and she lost her filial piety and became pregnant. At that time, there was only one queen and one concubine in the palace. Wu Yueniang tried hard to get pregnant but she didn't get pregnant. Some people said that Queen Gongsun was a powerful one.

Tao Hong Liu Lu was the maid Gongsun Wanying kept by her side in her natal family. They had grown up together since childhood, so they were naturally caring.

"Mother, the milk is warm."

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

The wives of all the palaces are very discerning, and the Queen's behavior could be said to be because she is pregnant and pampered, or it could be said that she is jealous of the beauties that the Emperor has adopted.

It would be a lie to say that I am not jealous. Besides being jealous, everyone is also a little envious.

Only those close to the queen knew that the queen was so weak because she was really heavy and vomited violently.

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

The queen doesn't care. As a maid, she has to share the burden for her master.

Liu Lu hesitated, but still said what the little palace maid said, "The emperor went to sit with the Queen Mother, and then went to Yuehua Palace."

Two children is still too few, so we need to spread our wings.

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 also use milk to make snacks to change the queen's appetite.

Today, she felt like she couldn't eat anything, so she only used half the bowl and put it down.

Either the wind blew yesterday, or I caught a cold today, or I just feel uncomfortable with morning sickness, and I can’t even think about eating or drinking.

Others thought that the queen was playing tricks and deliberately used the child in her belly as an excuse to gain the emperor's favor.

"Empress."

Liu Lu wanted to explain, but was stopped by Tao Hong's sudden tug on her sleeve.

Gongsun Wanying smiled tiredly: "You all go out and leave me alone for a while."

These days, she was confused and didn't know what to think, which made the two maids confused.

She really should think carefully about what is going on between the emperor, the princess, the queen mother, and the newly arrived Lu Meiren, which she doesn't know about.
