Chapter 420: Children’s Matters
"Yuer, all you need to know is that now is your chance!"
"You must perform well and make your father look at you with new eyes, understand?"
Bei Jingyu nodded, "Got it."
Concubine De smiled gently, as if she was comforted.
"Mom knew that Yu'er was the most obedient."
She seemed to suddenly remember something, as if she had just noticed the beads of sweat on Bei Jingyu's forehead, and said softly, "Mother asked someone to make you some mung bean soup to cool you down, and she also prepared some ice cream."
"You must be hot after all this journey. Come on, let's go in and rest."
As if to compensate her for the suffering of separation from her son, the emperor sent her many rewards.
After washing and dressing up, Concubine De went to express her gratitude.
The palace was not hot, probably the weather in early autumn, but the emperor was wearing clothes that were suitable for late autumn.
Defei thought that the injuries he suffered during the assassination had not yet fully recovered.
It was really thrilling at the time, but Concubine De was glad for the assassination because after that, her Yu'er was appreciated and promoted.
Bei Jingyu sat beside her with the memorial in his hand, and Concubine De's smile deepened.
After she left, Bei Jingyu continued to read the contents of the memorial to the emperor who was exhausted.
After listening to him, the emperor did not tell him how to comment. He paused for a moment and asked casually, "What do you think, Yu'er?"
Faced with the sudden question, Bei Jingyu froze and his mind went blank.
The emperor did not speak, as if waiting for his answer.
It seemed like only a moment, or it seemed like a long time had passed before Bei Jingyu gritted his teeth and replied, "Son, Son thinks... we can just follow the old rules."
Bei Heng: “…”
He still gave it a chance and asked, "Why?"
"Because, because um...um...that..."
"Well, let me tell you."
Bei Jingyu breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had been pardoned.
After returning to the palace, Concubine De had no idea how much pressure her son was under, and she fell into a state of showing off her power.
When I was paying my respects to the imperial concubine, I was asked if I was in a good mood.
She touched the rim of the cup with her slender fingers and boasted, "I saw the child yesterday, so I feel relieved."
"After all, at our age, the only thing we look forward to is having children."
"As long as my children are with me and I can see them often, I will be in a good mood."
"Not to mention the child's success and pleasing His Majesty."
It is not known whether it was intentional or unintentional, but others glanced at the Imperial Concubine and the Virtuous Concubine.
Everyone knows that these two concubines who are childless but occupy high positions treat the prince as their own son.
Now that the prince has been sent back to Shangyang Palace, we can no longer see each other often.
The Third Prince pleases His Majesty, but that was after the Crown Prince lost power. It's really a case of one gaining while the other loses.
The imperial concubine's expression remained unchanged, as if she didn't understand the hidden meaning in her words. She waved her hand tiredly: "Since there is nothing to do in the palace, let's go today."
After everyone left, the dignified Concubine Fang immediately gnashed her teeth, wishing she could catch one of Concubine De's villains to stab.
She complained to Concubine Xian: "Sister, look at how proud she is!"
"Isn't it just that my son gets a little more face? He hasn't even been crowned king, but our Chu'er is the crown prince!"
"They can compete!"
Xian Fei was surprised and asked, "Did you really get angry?"
"You didn't even get angry when your Majesty's new favorite fell in love with you last month."
The imperial concubine was speechless: "How can a new favorite be the same? After so many years in the palace, who would still care about that bastard?"
"This time it's about the kids!"
