Chapter 140 Disgust
Jinzhong's eyes, which had been filled with resentment, suddenly brightened up when he heard this, and he quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes! Your Majesty, rest assured that this servant will definitely complete this task. With Your Majesty's favor, Concubine Ling's morning sickness will definitely be cured, and she will give Your Majesty a healthy little prince or princess..."
If it has to be delivered every day, wouldn’t that be a good opportunity for him?
For this reason, please forgive the dog emperor, this irresponsible father, for a while.
Listening to Jinzhong's compliments, the emperor didn't think anything was wrong and felt very happy. The child in Concubine Ling's belly was really sensible. Knowing that it was the bird's nest that he had sent, he stopped making a fuss.
It seems that he has a great affinity with this child!
He raised his eyebrows slightly and said with considerable pleasure, "Just do your job well. When Concubine Ling gives birth to an heir, I will reward you."
"I thank the emperor for his grace."
Hearing the emperor say this, Jinzhong was overjoyed and quickly knelt down to express his gratitude.
Not only can I see the Lord every day, but I can also get rewards. Where can I find such a good job?
Jinzhong was very happy to be able to eat and take things at the same time.
From another perspective, the emperor can be considered a good emperor!
"Go down and wait."
The emperor nodded with satisfaction and continued to deal with government affairs.
Ever since the Empress of Yongshou Palace became pregnant, the Emperor's rewards have been sent to the Yongshou Palace every now and then. Now, it's said that the Emperor has specially sent bowls of bird's nest to the Yongshou Palace every day. Everyone in the palace knows that Empress Ling is the most favored of all!
A bowl of bird's nest is not rare, but what makes it precious is that it is the imperial meal that the emperor eats every day.
You have to know that this is something from the emperor's imperial meal, and only the emperor can enjoy it. Even the empress does not have this honor, which shows that Concubine Ling holds a very special position in the emperor's heart.
Now everyone in the palace knows that Concubine Ling is favored, and they are eager to curry favor with her in everything, and all the good things are sent to Yongshou Palace first.
For a time, Concubine Ling's Yongshou Palace was more prosperous than the Empress's Yiku Palace.
Ruyi had just lost the fifth princess and was feeling depressed now.
Rong Pei has also recently learned about the changes in the palace, and she can't help but feel distressed when she sees Ruyi still immersed in grief.
The Empress just lost the princess, but the Emperor didn't come to persuade her, instead he had time to favor other concubines. How could she not feel sad?
Rong Pei carefully carried a bowl of ginseng soup into the hall, walked to Ruyi, who was leaning on a soft pillow and staring at the scenery outside the window in a daze, and gently persuaded her: "Your Majesty, drink a bowl of ginseng soup. It's not a good thing for you to be like this all the time these days. I know you are sad, but you are still pregnant with the dragon fetus. You have to eat something for the sake of the dragon fetus..."
Ruyi shook her head, looking at the bowl of ginseng soup without any appetite. Her face was pale, her eyes were lifeless, and she stared out the window in a daze: "You can take it away. I have no appetite..."
She has been like this for several days in a row, looking decadent and lacking any of the dignity that a queen should have.
Rong Pei sighed deeply, and had no other choice but to put the ginseng soup in her hand down.
When she went out, she happened to meet Hai Lan who came to visit Ruyi in the yard.
"Sister, can't you eat yet?" Hai Lan walked closer with the support of Ye Xin, looked at the ginseng soup in Rong Pei's hand, frowned slightly, and asked.
Rong Pei nodded helplessly. She turned her head to glance at Ruyi's movements, and whispered to Hai Lan, "The Empress has been having trouble eating and drinking these days. Concubine Yu, you must help to persuade her. The Empress is pregnant with the heir..."
She has been depressed since the death of the fifth princess.
Jiang Yebi has come over frequently to check Ruyi's pulse recently, and he feels helpless as he sees Ruyi's health deteriorating.
If it were a common illness, then she would only need to prescribe the right medicine. But this mental illness was truly difficult to cure, and she could only rely on herself.
Jiang Yebin had no choice but to prescribe some pregnancy-maintaining medicine for her while asking Rong Pei to persuade her and tell her to be at ease.
But Rong Pei kept trying to persuade her for a long time but there was no response, so she could only place her hopes on Hai Lan.
Hai Lan nodded when she heard this and replied in a gentle voice: "Don't worry, I will persuade my sister well..."
Seeing Hailan agreed, Rong Pei felt relieved and left, leaving a place for the two sisters to talk.
"You're here? How's Yongqi doing these days?"
Seeing Hai Lan coming, Ruyi had a dull face and was not in the mood at all. She just asked about the Fifth Prince's recent situation as a routine matter.
Hailan nodded, sat down opposite her and whispered, "Yongqi is fine. I came here this time to tell you something."
"But what's going on in the palace?"
Only when she heard her say that something happened did Ruyi manage to muster some spirit.
Hai Lan nodded and shook her head, and said with great concern: "Sister, you have lost weight these days. I know you are sad without the fifth princess, but after all, you are the queen, and you have to cheer up and take care of the affairs of the harem. You don't know how rampant some people have been these days..."
Seeing that Ruyi still looked half-dead, Hai Lan simply spoke out.
"Since my sister is so depressed, the emperor always likes to stay in the Yangxin Palace, but he doesn't know that Concubine Ling has been acting dishonestly recently."
"Empress Ling? What happened to her?"
When Ruyi heard Hai Lan mention Concubine Ling, she subconsciously frowned.
"Sister, we all know what she's thinking. She's always been a vying for favor. Whenever she's pregnant, she uses the excuse of morning sickness to win favor. Aren't all pregnant women like that? Is she the only one who's different? Yet, the Emperor just falls for her tricks. Now, Yongshou Palace is almost as busy as Yikun Palace. I know you don't like arguments, but are you really going to watch Concubine Ling continue to be so arrogant?"
Hai Lan was filled with righteous indignation. She couldn't stand Concubine Ling's arrogant look because of her favor.
Didn't she know what Concubine Ling looked like? This morning sickness was probably faked, just to win the emperor's favor and pity.
They were all women, and Hai Lan thought she wouldn't be wrong.
When I saw her seducing the emperor in the imperial garden, I knew she was not an easy person to deal with.
Originally, he thought that sending her to the greenhouse to work would be enough, but he didn't expect that after sending her away, she would still find an opportunity to successfully seduce the emperor and make a comeback.
After hearing this, Ruyi felt dizzy. She had just lost her beloved daughter, so how could she have the energy to care about these things?
