Chapter 282 A Heartbroken Emperor × A Beloved Concubine Who Has Regained Her Heart 8
Chapter 282 A Heartbroken Emperor × A Beloved Concubine Who Has Regained Her Heart 8
Consort Li was surprised that Chu Yue was pregnant. The emperor went in and never came out again. The imperial physicians ran back and forth several times, and the palace servants were excitedly going in and out, but no one paid any attention to her.
Covering her face, she returned to Yilan Palace in a daze. Before Consort Li could even sit down, the imperial edict arrived, saying that she had offended the imperial heir and disrespected the emperor, and was to be confined for three months and copy Buddhist scriptures ten times.
Consort Li is ill again.
It turned out that after the emperor was overjoyed, he felt fear and was very angry about what Consort Li had done. That's why he had Xiao Xingzi deliver the decree: if she was well-behaved, she could be kept in the palace; if she was not well-behaved, there were many ways to deal with her.
Fengze Palace
"Imperial Physician, why is Her Majesty vomiting so badly?" Lian Qiao anxiously patted Chu Yue's chest.
Chu Yue felt weak all over from vomiting, and leaned weakly against Lian Qiao with her eyes lightly closed.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." The imperial physician withdrew his hand and said respectfully, "Your Majesty has been taking contraceptive medicine, which has damaged your body. It is already difficult for you to conceive this time. In addition, it is inevitable that Your Majesty will feel unwell since it is your first pregnancy. That is why Your Majesty is feeling so uncomfortable."
"Imperial Physician, is there any way to help Her Majesty? She is in so much pain."
Lian Qiao asked anxiously.
"We can only prescribe medicine to alleviate the symptoms as much as possible. Your Majesty should take good care of your health."
"Imperial Physician, will there be any problem with the child in my womb?"
Chu Yue was weak and had no strength.
"Your Majesty, rest assured, the pregnancy is fine. Your subject will prescribe medicine to help prevent miscarriage."
"That's good. Don't tell His Majesty about this. I don't want to cause him any more worry."
"Your Majesty understands..."
After the imperial physician left, Lianqiao asked, "Your Majesty, why didn't you tell His Majesty? Your Majesty has been working so hard."
Chu Yue leaned against the pillow and said softly, "The imperial physician just said that my poor health is due to drinking too much contraceptive soup. If I tell His Majesty, won't that make him angry?"
"Your Majesty, I misunderstood." Lian Qiao said with great concern, "It's only been a little over two months, and Your Majesty has suffered so much..."
Chu Yue smiled weakly: "Silly girl..."
"Your Majesty, this servant will help you wash up. His Majesty will be here soon."
"it is good……"
The emperor had already arrived at the Imperial Garden. Xiao Xingzi looked at the person in front of him, and after a moment of confusion, he remembered that it was Consort Yun from Fangfei Palace.
"Your Majesty, ahead is Consort Yun..."
The emperor looked up and immediately frowned. "Let's go."
Consort Yun, as if only just noticing the Emperor's carriage, hurriedly bowed and said, "This concubine greets Your Majesty..."
The imperial carriage had to stop again, and the emperor said in a deep voice, "Get up."
Consort Yun became more careful, but in her haste, she twisted her ankle and swayed slightly: "Your Majesty, I have been impolite, please forgive me..."
The emperor frowned; time was running out, and Consort Zhao was getting impatient.
"Go back."
Consort Yun cautiously raised her head, biting her lip, and said nervously, "Your Majesty, I've twisted my ankle..."
Xiao Xingzi glanced around and saw that Consort Yun was all alone. What was she doing here all alone at this hour?
However, it was obvious without even thinking that he simply wanted to see His Majesty. Xiao Xingzi glanced at the emperor's expression and understood what he meant.
"Your Highness Consort Yun, let me send someone to escort you back. His Majesty has other matters to attend to later."
"No need, my maid will be here soon. I'll take my leave."
Consort Yun respectfully stepped back two paces and watched the Emperor's carriage depart into the distance.
“Your Majesty…” Consort Yun’s maid, Zisu, came out from the side: “The handkerchief has been found.”
Consort Yun reached out and took it: "Let's go, let's go back."
"Your Highness, what happened to your foot?" Zisu asked worriedly.
Consort Yun's ankle hurt a little, but she could bear it: "It's nothing, I just twisted it."
"Your Majesty, let me help you back to apply the medicine."
"Um……"
By the time the emperor arrived at Fengze Palace, it was already late, and Chu Yue was anxiously waiting for him.
"My beloved consort, I've arrived." As soon as the emperor entered the palace, he rushed to Chu Yue's side and took her hand: "Have you been waiting anxiously?"
"Your Majesty, where have you been?" Chu Yue asked, her voice tinged with grievance.
Consort Zhao is pregnant and prone to overthinking. If I tell her what just happened, it will probably upset her. If I don't tell her, and she finds out later, things will only get more complicated.
"Your Majesty, when His Majesty arrived just now, he encountered Consort Yun in the Imperial Garden. Consort Yun paid her respects and then left."
Xiao Xingzi spoke up from the side, and the emperor nodded: "Don't overthink it."
Chu Yue bit her lip as she looked at the emperor, feeling extremely upset. It was all her fault for being so foolish, and now she was making things difficult for herself at every turn.
Isn't Consort Yun practically invisible?
"My beloved concubine?" The emperor stared intently at Chu Yue, afraid she might overthink things.
Consort Zhao least wanted to see these two people, and she wouldn't mention them, much less let anyone else mention them.
"Your Majesty...please go and wash up, I will wait for you." Chu Yue suppressed her emotions and said softly.
Seeing that she showed no signs of distress, the emperor was relieved.
Lian Qiao helped Chu Yue sit down and whispered, "Your Majesty..."
"It's alright. I'm pregnant and can't serve His Majesty. With Consort Li confined to her quarters, Consort Yun is bound to have some restless thoughts."
Lianqiao was worried about this very thing; the Empress was still several months pregnant.
"Alright, don't worry, I know what I'm doing. You can go out now."
"Yes, Your Majesty..."
Before long, the emperor came out and saw that Chu Yue was about to get up and come over. "My beloved concubine, don't move. I'm coming over here."
"Your Majesty, there's no need to be so careful. I'm fine." Chu Yue said helplessly, the emperor was making a big fuss over nothing.
"My beloved concubine, are you feeling unwell today?" The emperor asked, observing her expression.
Chu Yue's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she looked away somewhat: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I'm fine, really. The imperial physician has come to see me and said that I just need to be careful."
"Next time you summon the imperial physician, wait for me to come along." The emperor embraced Chu Yue and sat down on the bed. "I also want to know about my son's condition at any time."
"Alright... Your Majesty, I've got it." It's just one missed opportunity today, yet the Emperor is making it sound like such a serious matter.
"My beloved consort, I will come to keep you company earlier from now on." As he lay down on the bed, the emperor was still worried about whether Chu Yue had thought too much about it. After all, Consort Zhao really disliked those two people.
Chu Yue nestled in the emperor's arms and raised her hand to cover his mouth: "Your Majesty, I'm sleepy...I want to sleep."
Consort Zhao's soft, sweet voice captivated the emperor's heartstrings. He took Chu Yue's hand and placed it on his chest, then lowered his head to seek her lips.
Chu Yue flinched slightly, but the emperor, unable to find her anywhere, angrily grabbed her waist and said in a low voice, "Yue'er."
"Your Majesty... what's wrong?" Chu Yue secretly curled the corners of her lips before raising her head and looking at the emperor seriously.
The emperor felt a tightness in his chest: "Give me a kiss."
"Like this?" Chu Yue leaned in and touched it.
The emperor was clearly dissatisfied, frowning: "Not enough."
Chu Yue leaned in again and pressed her lips to the emperor's without leaving. Only then was the emperor satisfied. He held the person in his arms and kissed her tenderly.
After a long while, the kiss ended, and Chu Yue's face was flushed: "Your Majesty..."
"My beloved concubine is alluring; no wonder I am so captivated."
Chu Yue couldn't win an argument with him, so she simply shut up.
The emperor's muffled laughter came from his chest: "Alright, I won't tease you anymore, go to sleep."
Chu Yue then fell asleep.
