Chapter 128 Lu Qingqing is also pregnant? !
Li Xuansheng was conflicted.
It was true that he felt uncomfortable living in the Queen's palace, but this discomfort was also because the Queen was pregnant with his child. He shook his head helplessly and could only endure it.
He looked up at the queen and his tone softened a lot.
"Jinrou, it's my fault. You're still pregnant, so you have to pay more attention to your diet and daily life."
"These vegetables are very fresh, and I enjoy them."
After Li Xuansheng comforted her, the Queen smiled again and happily continued to eat with Li Xuansheng.
At nightfall, the two of them fell asleep on the couch with their clothes on.
Li Xuansheng gently put his arm around the queen's shoulders, and the queen indulged in it, enjoying the rare tenderness.
However, while Li Xuansheng was holding the queen in his arms, he was thinking about Yinglan Pavilion and felt a little worried.
The queen was born into a prominent family and has been well versed in the care of women since childhood. However, there is more than one concubine in the harem who is pregnant. Qingqing is also pregnant.
However, Qingqing was born a palace maid, and I wonder if she knows the various things that should be paid attention to during pregnancy?
Li Xuansheng thought about it for a while and decided to tell the Queen about Lu Qingqing's pregnancy. In this way, the Queen could teach Qingqing the precautions for pregnant women.
He gently squeezed the woman's shoulders and asked in a low voice:
"Jinrou, are you asleep?"
Wang Jinrou was lying in his arms, about to fall asleep in a daze. When Li Xuansheng asked her this question, she was shocked. She thought Li Xuansheng couldn't help himself and wanted to have sex with her.
So the queen quickly pushed Li Xuansheng's arm that was hugging her to show her refusal.
"Your Majesty, this won't do! Imperial Doctor Dou said that if you're not careful, you could end up with a miscarriage!"
Li Xuansheng's deep eyes met the queen's frightened eyes in the darkness, and he was confused.
"Why not? I haven't even told you what it is, and you've already rejected me."
The queen suddenly realized what had happened, and her face immediately turned red with embarrassment, and she sighed secretly in her heart.
Fortunately, it was at night and the emperor could not see his blushing face.
She was too sensitive during her pregnancy. It turned out that the emperor had something to ask her, and she thought it was...
Realizing that she had misunderstood, the Queen quickly hugged Li Xuansheng's arm, which she had just pushed out, and asked in a calm and pretended manner:
"I wonder what the emperor wants to say to me?"
Li Xuansheng said without hesitation:
"Ming Guiren is also pregnant, but she comes from a low-born family, so I'm afraid she doesn't have much knowledge about how to maintain her pregnancy. Jinrou will have to teach her well in the future."
Hearing this, Wang Jinrou was suddenly struck by lightning.
What? Mr. Ming!
Isn’t it just that Lu Qingqing is also pregnant? !
She was furious. She had never expected that during this autumn hunting trip, Lu Qingqing, this vixen, would take advantage of the situation and get pregnant outside the palace!
The queen was shocked and felt her lower abdomen tighten and feel a little uncomfortable.
But she didn't dare to speak out, and could only endure the discomfort and pretend to be gentle and virtuous, and said to Li Xuansheng in a gentle voice:
"That's really great news. I congratulate His Majesty."
"Your Majesty, rest assured. I will definitely tell Sister Lu how to take care of herself during pregnancy so that she can take good care of the baby."
After receiving the queen's affirmative answer, Li Xuansheng felt much more relieved and patted the queen's shoulder with satisfaction.
"It's getting late. Go to bed."
Soon, the sound of Li Xuansheng's even breathing could be heard beside the queen.
However, she couldn't sleep. Her eyes were as big as copper bells, staring straight at the curtains on the bed, emitting a shrewd look as sharp as lightning.
The next morning.
Lu Qingqing had just finished her morning exercise when she heard a bustling stream of congratulations from outside the hall.
It turned out that Ayun brought a group of palace servants to send her gifts.
Ayun stepped into Yinglan Pavilion and looked at Lu Qingqing, who was sweating profusely in her training clothes, with a forced smile, and saluted her politely.
"I am here on the orders of the Empress to congratulate Lady Ming on her pregnancy."
Lu Qingqing was shocked, but she quickly understood that Li Xuansheng stayed in Fengyi Palace last night, and he must have been the one who informed the Queen of her pregnancy.
She touched her belly and found that the fetus was nearly two months old. It would take some time for the pregnancy to become obvious.
It would have been fine for Li Xuansheng to tell the queen, as she couldn't hide the fact that she was pregnant. This saved her the trouble of finding an opportunity to announce the fact that she was pregnant.
Lu Qingqing smiled and expressed warm welcome to Ayun.
"Please ask Miss Ayun to thank the Queen for her kindness. I will go to Fengyi Palace to thank the Queen in person someday."
"Miss Ayun, you've had a hard time on the journey. Would you like to stay for a cup of tea?"
Ah Yun snorted, ordered the palace servant to put down the gift, and looked up and down at Lu Qingqing with contempt. After looking at her for a while, she turned around and left without saying a word.
Although Lu Qingqing was uncomfortable with Ayun's scrutiny, she was used to it. Ayun was the queen's personal maid, always arrogant and looked down on others.
However, she didn't have time to argue with Ayun now. What she cared about most was the gifts sent by the Queen.
After the palace servants who delivered the gifts left, Lu Qingqing immediately ordered Erxi and the others to count all the gifts one by one.
After counting, Erxi said happily:
"My lady, the Queen is really generous! She sent a lot of good things this time!"
"There are nourishing herbs such as ginseng, donkey-hide gelatin, and ganoderma lucidum, as well as many hairpins and rings made of gold and silver jewelry, and several rolls of fine brocade! If the young lady gets sick in the future, you can use these brocades to make new clothes!"
As Lu Qingqing listened to Erxi talking about the gift list, her eyes gradually lit up.
She always knew the Queen's thoughts and knew that she must be resentful of her pregnancy.
However, these gifts in front of us are real and expensive items made of real gold and silver!
The Queen is bad! The gift is good!
Lu Qingqing has been worried recently about the lack of start-up capital for the expansion of her Mixue Ice Palace in the capital. The gift sent by the Queen can be used for this purpose.
Lu Qingqing quickly ordered Xiaotao to invite Meng Qi over.
Soon, Meng Qi arrived at Yinglan Pavilion.
As soon as he entered the hall, he was attracted by the gift boxes of all sizes that filled the room. He joked:
"Hey! Lu Qingqing! I thought you wanted to see me for something important, but it turns out you made a fortune!"
Lu Qingqing looked proud and pointed at her belly which was not yet visible.
"This is not my fortune, but the start-up capital earned by the baby in my belly for me, its mother, to make a name for myself!"
"Take these things out of the palace and pawn them at a pawn shop. The money from the pawning can be used as the start-up capital for opening a store in the capital."
Meng Qi clapped his hands in approval.
"That's great! I'm leaving the palace right now!"
