Chapter 478: Concubine Li’s mother and daughter are jealous and resentful
Li Fei's belly was so big that she couldn't see her toes when she stood.
But she still grooms herself carefully every day, and the pregnancy makes her look much softer, with a bit more charm than when she was not pregnant.
"Your Majesty, this is the white stone soup cooked by Imperial Master Qingque. I will serve you and drink it." Li Fei cautiously approached with the soup bowl.
The emperor was originally sitting in the tent meditating with his eyes closed. Hearing this, he opened his eyes and said, "My dear concubine, you are inconvenienced now, so why do you have to worry about these things? There are so many eunuchs in the palace, let them do it!"
"There are many eunuchs in the palace, let alone them. Is there anyone in this world who is not willing to serve His Majesty?" Li Fei raised her charming eyes slightly and glanced at the Emperor affectionately, "But I am willing to do it myself, not to pretend to do it."
others."
As he spoke, he gently placed the soup bowl on the small table beside the bed, sat down next to the emperor, and gently nestled on the emperor's shoulder, lovingly attached to him, like a flower interpreting words.
"You! You are as simple-minded as a child." The Emperor raised his hand and gently touched Concubine Li's cheek, "But you are always sincere to me."
The emperor determined in his heart that although Concubine Li was a bit showy and willful, compared with other concubines, it was rare that she truly loved him.
Concubine Li took advantage of the situation and gently hugged the emperor's hand, and said in a resentful tone: "Your Majesty, you understand my concubine's feelings, and that is enough."
"Why should you be sad? What you are carrying in your belly now is the future emperor. As a mother is more valuable than her son, she will be safe in her later years." The emperor comforted her.
"Your Majesty, maybe everyone thinks that I should be happy, and I feel honored. But my heart is not happy, and I feel lost all day long." Concubine Li said quietly.
"Why is this?" the emperor asked warmly.
Concubine Li sighed carefully and said after a long time: "I know you shouldn't. Your Majesty's enlightenment is both your sincere feeling and God's will. But I just can't bear to part with it. When I think about the near future, I will never see your Majesty again."
, I just feel disheartened."
When Concubine Li said this, she couldn't help but choked up and shed tears.
The emperor also sighed and said: "I don't know that you are reluctant to let go, but when this child is born, there must be someone close to him to raise him and love him. I can no longer fulfill my responsibilities as a father, and you, as a mother, have to bear more.
That's it.
Don’t worry, your family will all come back to Beijing soon. I won’t let you be alone, and Qionghua, I have already planned her future.”
When Concubine Li heard him mention the Seventh Princess, she quickly stopped crying and asked tentatively: "Then what is your Majesty's plan?"
"Qionghua is your daughter, my most beloved daughter, and the sister of the future monarch. Naturally, she cannot marry far away, and she has to marry a husband who is outstanding in appearance and family." The emperor looked at Concubine Li with a smile.
"I decided to entrust her to the person I trust most."
Concubine Li looked into the emperor's eyes, looking for the answer: "Is it possible that the emperor's favorite is...Yu Guming?"
The emperor laughed after hearing this: "You are right. Needless to say, Gu Ming's appearance is a child, and he is a sincere gentleman. He has made great achievements in battle this time, and I will definitely reward him well."
What's more, An Guogong has a prominent position and is respected by everyone. He is my loyal minister. You are young and inexperienced, not to mention that you come from a womanly family. The prince is too young, and it is difficult to support the situation of the previous dynasty just by relying on your mother's family.
If Duke An Guo tries his best to support us, we don't have to worry about anything."
Before Li Fei could say anything, the seventh princess walked in from outside, walking quickly, wiping her tears as she walked.
Concubine Li couldn't help but reprimanded: "You are already sixteen years old, how are you crying? How can you show any royal demeanor?"
The seventh princess became more and more beautiful, even more beautiful than her mother, Concubine Li.
Even after being reprimanded, he did not shut up, and said angrily: "What is wrong with your style? I don't care! What about the princess? You can't just let others steal the prize if you are casual!"
"Who robbed you? You are His Majesty's daughter, who has the courage? I think you may have made a mistake." Li Fei said.
"No! No matter how stupid I am, can't I hear good and bad things?" The seventh princess refused, "I'm sure I didn't say this to you."
After hearing this, the emperor asked: "What happened? Who bumped into you? Tell your father."
"So what? My brother hasn't been born yet, and he already holds military power." The seventh princess said aggrievedly, "Killing us by then will not be like chopping melons and vegetables!"
When he said this, the emperor wanted to know the details even more, and said solemnly with a straight face: "What is going on? Please tell me in detail."
"What a reply to your father. You are so unruly. Be careful of me slapping your mouth!" Concubine Li stared.
The seventh princess pursed her lips, and her tears fell in pairs like broken pearls: "Just now I sent the people in front of me to the dining room to ask if the taro paste cake I wanted was ready.
Who wants to come back after a long time, not only with empty hands, but also half of the face is swollen.
Naturally, I asked what was wrong. They said they had prepared snacks for me. When I walked to the door of the dining room, I heard that people from Fu Fei Palace were also inside.
It was said that the emperor's eldest grandson came to the palace today, and he also liked to eat taro paste cakes. He happened to see something that could be made, so he wanted to take it away.
The snack maker stopped him and said that this was what the Seventh Princess wanted, and someone would come to pick it up soon.
The people in front of Concubine Fu said, don't look down on others. What about the Seventh Princess? Our Fifth Highness has made great achievements.
You only flatter that palace, thinking that in the future the world will belong to that side. You don’t even open your eyes to see, which one is thicker, arms or thighs?
My people then entered the house and said that this was originally what our princess wanted. The emperor's eldest grandson wanted to eat it and asked someone to make it again. You just have to wait. Why do you have to say it so harshly?
The people in Concubine Fu's palace said that my people were eavesdropping outside the door, and they were not well-intentioned. They also said that the seventh princess was an aunt, and she should give whatever food she had to her nephew. How could she still argue with a child?
My people said, if you say that you should be humble, it is not impossible, but if you don't say first come, first served, you are bullying others.
The two sides were in a stalemate, and finally they took action.
There were many people over there, but there were few here, so I naturally suffered a loss and the snacks were also taken away."
The seventh princess was so aggrieved when she said this, she simply threw herself into the emperor's arms and cried loudly: "I know why they dare to be so arrogant, but they are just relying on the fifth brother to achieve great achievements and have military power in their hands.
I also thought that my father would become an immortal soon, so how could anyone protect us, mother and daughter?
Father, my daughter is so scared! Who among the people in the palace is not afraid of Fifth Brother? Not to mention the palace, there are probably not many people in the world who dare to compete with him."
