Along the way, Guo Zimu hugged King Luo Rong tightly, and King Luo Rong kept comforting him. After calming down, King Luo Rong also had some doubts in his heart. The emperor summoned Xiaomu into the palace at night, how could the queen not respond? And the emperor is so unavoidable, isn't he afraid of attracting criticism from his courtiers? Based on his understanding of the emperor, even if the emperor really has any thoughts about Xiao Mu, he must at least take his uncle into consideration. Even if Xiao Mu has not formally entered the door, the imperial edict to grant marriage has already been promulgated. What's more, Xiao Mu is still Zhongyonghou's brother-in-law, Zhongyonghou just left the capital, and the emperor did such a thing, Zhongyonghou may not be able to prove it, but with Yun'an's temper, he would not let it go, the emperor should not be so confused.
King Luo Rong felt something was wrong no matter what he thought. He told Guo Zimu his thoughts, and then said: "Let's not get confused, and see what the emperor means after entering the palace. Xiaomu is not afraid, no matter what, I will protect you."
Guo Zimu was really scared. He was very repulsed to enter the palace, if the queen called him to enter the palace, that's fine. But the emperor called him into the palace, and it was night again, so he was afraid of death.
The gate of the palace was closed, but with the emperor's order, King Luo Rong had the privilege of entering and leaving the palace at will. The carriage entered the palace smoothly and stopped before reaching the palace gate of the inner palace. King Luo Rong held Guo Zimu's cold hand tightly and followed the little father-in-law who was going to the palace to report. Seeing that the direction was the emperor's bedroom, King Luo Rong frowned in his heart. Guo Zimu was wearing a mask, and his face was pale under the mask. He didn't know that the road under his feet was leading to the emperor's bedroom. If he knew, he would definitely run back regardless.
No matter how unwilling, Emperor Yongming's bedroom has arrived. King Luo Rong looked up and saw Guo Xun waiting at the door. Guo Xun saw Luo Rongwang's eyes lit up, and trotted forward to greet him. With his performance, King Luo Rong was not nervous anymore, because Guo Xun didn't show the slightest bit of embarrassment or defensiveness towards his arrival. King Luo Rong immediately asked: "Eunuch Guo, what's the rush for the emperor to call Wang Zhengjun into the palace alone at night? This king is worried, and especially accompanied Wang Zhengjun into the palace."
Guo Xun was stunned for a moment, he glanced at the little eunuch shivering down, and immediately said with a smile on his face: "It's not an urgent matter, Chitose has already said not to bother the lord and Zhengjun, but the emperor saw that Chitose was very uncomfortable, so he called out in private. He sent someone to call the prince and Zhengjun into the palace, the emperor spoke in a hurry, fearing that the person who sent the message was careful, which made the prince worry.
How could Guo Xun fail to understand what King Luo Rong said. Guo Zimu is the quasi-king and Zhengjun, a husband and wife, and it is inappropriate for the emperor to call her into the palace at night, both emotionally and rationally.
"Chitose wanted to eat sweet and sour fish today, but the imperial dining room made it. After a few mouthfuls, Chitose couldn't eat it anymore. He said he really wanted to eat it made by Wang Shaozhengjun. The emperor wore the cook of Yunlong Pavilion and entered the palace to make it, but he couldn't make it." The taste that Chitose wanted to eat. Chitose didn't even eat half a bowl of rice at night. The emperor knew that Chitose was actually thinking about Wang Shaozhengjun's craftsmanship in his heart.
Originally, the emperor wanted Wang Zhengjun to enter the palace to cook sweet and sour fish for Qiantui, but Qiantui didn't want to bother Zhengjun. But Chitose tossed and turned after falling asleep, very uncomfortable. The emperor was impatient and couldn't bear it, so he secretly sent people to pass on the news of the prince and Zhengjun. The person who sent the message didn't know the truth and didn't speak clearly, which worried the prince and Zhengjun. "
Halfway through Guo Xun's words, King Luo Rong let out a long sigh of relief in his heart, while Guo Zimu was so afraid that his hands and feet were limp. The people around him leaned against him all of a sudden, King Luo Rong hugged the limp Guo Zimu calmly, and asked, "Is it convenient for me and Zhengjun to go in now?"
"It's convenient and convenient. The emperor didn't sleep, and Qiantui lay down feeling uncomfortable, and got up again. This servant is going to pass the message."
Guo Xun sent the message, and the little eunuch who went to the palace to send the message was taken away immediately. Guo Zimu was really frightened and sweated all over. King Luo Rong rubbed his hands and said in a low voice: "I said that the emperor would not do such rude things, but Nanmen scared himself."
Guo Zimu gasped for breath and hadn't recovered yet.
Soon Guo Xun came out, and King Luo Rong took Guo Zimu's hand again and followed him into the palace. As soon as the two of them entered, Emperor Yongming, who was wearing a frost-colored dragon robe, said apologetically, "Uncle Emperor, I'm really sorry to let you and Aunt Huang enter the palace at night. Qi You is really uncomfortable."
A person came out from the inner palace, it was the queen wearing a plain phoenix robe.
"Uncle Huang, I'm really sorry to let you and Aunt Huang enter the palace at night. It's because the emperor saw that I couldn't sleep, so he forgot etiquette in a hurry."
The tone of Emperor Yongming and the Empress was that of a family member, and the address of Guo Zimu also changed. King Luo Rong smiled and waved his hands: "Your Majesty and Qiantui don't need to be polite. It must be Qiantui, it's too uncomfortable That's why the emperor is so anxious."
Emperor Yongming immediately said, "Yes, yes. Aunt Huang's cooking skills were taught by Yun An, and Yun An is far away in Zhongyong Village, so I can only trouble Aunt Huang."
Guo Zimu hadn't entered yet, but Emperor Yongming and the queen, the "auntie", had already called out, which made the last trace of dissatisfaction disappear in King Luo Rong's heart. It is indeed inappropriate for the emperor to do this, but maybe he was really anxious, the emperor did not make it clear, the little eunuch who sent the message would say that the emperor summoned Zhengjun "alone", but there is no guarantee that the little eunuch who delivered the order did not do it on purpose. King Luo Rong also thought of the conspiracy in this matter, but he would not tell Guo Zimu, because he did not want him to know too many dark things.
Guo Zimu was born, and his voice was not high: "Then, I will do it now."
Emperor Yongming: "Guo Xun, you accompany Wang Zhengjun to the imperial dining room."
"yes."
King Luo Rong squeezed Guo Zimu's hand and let go. Guo Zimu saluted the emperor and Zhengjun, and followed Guo Xun. As soon as the two left, the Empress taught her a lesson: "Your Majesty, you are really reckless."
Emperor Yongming immediately said: "Uncle Huang, I have become reckless, please don't blame Uncle Huang."
King Luo Rong smiled, looking like he didn't mind. Emperor Yongming immediately asked someone to bring tea and refreshments to King Luo Rong. After King Luo Rong picked up the tea bowl, Emperor Yongming sighed deliberately: "Now that Yun'an is gone, I and Qi You will not be able to eat something good. The cook in Yunlong Pavilion is still a little worse than Yun'an. When Aunt Huang's private restaurant opens, Qi You and I will definitely join in."
King Luo Rong took the opportunity to say: "The emperor is so flattering, the emperor really has a heartless invitation. Xiaomu is very sad about this private restaurant, and the emperor wants to ask the emperor to give me a few words."
Emperor Yongming took advantage of the situation; "That's easy to say. I don't know what the name of the emperor's aunt's private restaurant is?"
"You would like to cook from your own kitchen."
"Qingyuan... Okay! I will write the inscription now."
Guo Zimu made sweet and sour fish for the queen in the imperial dining room, and Emperor Yongming wrote an inscription on Guo Zimu's private restaurant in the bedroom as an apology. When Guo Zimu was ready and Guo Xun brought it over in person, King Luo Rong and Emperor Yongming were discussing some matters in the court. The queen didn't interrupt, she sat beside Emperor Yongming and listened quietly, but she seemed a little lack of energy .
As soon as Guo Xun came in, the queen raised her head, and the scent of sweet and sour fish had already entered the noses of the three people in the room. Guo Xun carried the tray to the table and said, "Chitose, Wang Zhengjun also made some side dishes, all of which are refreshing, and he also made soup."
Queen: "I'm sorry to bother you, Aunt Huang, are you talking too much again?"
Guo Xun, who was arranging the plate, patted his mouth: "The maid said that Qiantui has not had a good appetite these days, so I want to eat something refreshing."
Guo Zimu lowered his head slightly and said, "It's not a waste of time, so I just made it along the way. Try it later, do you like it?"
Emperor Yongming was most anxious: "Qi You, eat and watch."
The queen got up and came to the table, smelling the fragrance, his saliva had already started to secrete. He picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and ate it. After the queen swallowed it, he picked up another piece of fish. After swallowing it again, he raised his eyes: "Aunt Huang's cooking skills are really good."
Emperor Yongming laughed, Guo Xun smiled, Guo Xun immediately brought a bowl of rice, and the queen said, "Uncle and Aunt Huang can also use some."
King Luo Rong: "No, Zheng Jun also cooked a table of dishes at night and ate a lot. Chitose you eat, don't worry about us."
The Queen may be really hungry, or it may be that Guo Zimu's cooking is too appetizing. He continued to chopstick after chopstick, and he seemed to like to eat the other four side dishes made by Guo Zimu. The four side dishes include cold shredded lotus root, shrimp balls in fan sauce, coir raincoat cucumber and fried carrot slices with yam slices, and the soup is splashed green vegetable tofu soup. These dishes are not difficult to make, there are also in Yunlong Pavilion, and the imperial chef can also make them, but the queen thinks that Guo Zimu's cooking tastes good, which is comparable to Shao Yun'an's cooking.
Seeing that the queen ate it, Emperor Yongming was obviously relieved, and Guo Xun said from the side: "Your Majesty, you can also use some."
The Empress has no appetite, and Emperor Yongming has no appetite either. Guo Xun said that, he was really hungry. That fish was not too small, and Emperor Yongming also ordered a bowl of rice.
King Luo Rong said at this time: "Since Qiansui can eat, Uncle Huang can rest assured. If there is nothing else, we will go back first."
Emperor Yongming immediately said: "It's getting late, why don't the emperor and aunt stay in the palace, and I will let Guo Xun go to the palace to say something."
King Luo Rong knew that Guo Zimu would definitely not want to live in the palace, so he said, "No, it's not too late, let's go back."
"I'm really bothering Uncle and Aunt Huang tonight."
"The emperor is too polite, we are all a family, so there is no need to bother."
King Luo Rong insisted on going back, so Emperor Yongming and the Queen would not stay. King Luo Rong took Guo Zimu to leave, and Guo Xun went to see him off. On the way, Guo Xun said: "Qiantui has always had a bad appetite these days. The emperor really can't stand it tonight, so he called Zhengjun behind Qiantui's back." He came into the palace to cook for Chitose. Chitose said that it might be because the weather is too hot, and he has no appetite. When Chitose is not in good health, he always has no appetite when the weather is hot. I didn’t think I would get well, but I was still afraid of the heat.”
King Luo Rong felt his heart move and asked, "How long has Qiantui been like this?"
"It's been seven or eight days."
"Can't eat anything or just want something sour?"
"It's been seven or eight days."
"Can't eat anything or just want something sour?"
Guo Xun was stunned, and subconsciously replied: "It's not that I can't eat anything, but I really want to sneer at some sweet and sour ones, but the cook said it was not good after making Qiantui, saying that it was not as good as Wang Shaozhengjun's. "
King Luo Rong stopped in his tracks, in the confusion of Guo Zimu and Guo Xun. He stood there contemplatively. Guo Xun asked carefully, "My lord?"
King Luo Rong led Guo Zimu to turn around: "This king has something to tell the emperor."
Emperor Yongming stopped chopsticks after eating a bowl of rice, and the empress was already eating the third bowl. Seeing that he likes to eat, Emperor Yongming didn't eat too much and left it for him to eat, otherwise if the queen doesn't have enough to eat, he can't call people back.
Emperor Yongming thought that when the queen was full, he would explain it carefully. He had no idea whether Guo Zimu was real. If he liked beauties, he wouldn't be able to have only Dai Qiyou by his side all the time, and he wouldn't share the fairy fruit with Dai Qiyou. Emperor Kang Sheng loved beauty, and made a good country into a mess. He, the crown prince (prince), had lived and died several times, so in a sense, Emperor Yongming was very taboo about beauty.
In the end, before Emperor Yongming could explain, King Luo Rong came back. Both the Empress and Emperor Yongming were obviously surprised, and King Luo Rong opened his mouth and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor looks like Qiantui, isn't it possible?"
Emperor Yongming's expression was dull, the queen was equally dull, and Guo Xun was even more dull. King Luo Rong said: "Qiantui wants to eat sweet and sour food, but he can't eat something that suits his taste and makes him feel uncomfortable. I thought that Lin Shi was like this when she was pregnant with the son. She usually eats vegetarian food, but when she was pregnant with the son, she especially wanted to eat meat. She I couldn’t eat it, so I cried a lot because of it. Ask the imperial physician to come over and show Chitose, if it’s really there, then Chitose’s poor appetite is not the reason for the hot weather.”
"hiss!!!"
Emperor Yongming suddenly jumped up as if being stabbed suddenly, and shouted: "Xuan Imperial Physician! Hurry up and announce Imperial Physician!"
The chopsticks in the Queen's hand dropped, she lowered her head, staring blankly at her stomach. Guo Xun also panicked, and ran over to take the bowl from the Queen's hand. King Luo Rong and Guo Zimu couldn't leave for the time being. Among the people present, only King Luo Rong had experience as a father. This was because he and Mrs. Lin were able to give birth to a child for him, so he cared about Mrs. Lin after she became pregnant, so he remembered many details.
The queen conceived a child, but the environment was dangerous at that time, he was poisoned and had a miscarriage not long after, and he had no chance to experience the reaction after pregnancy, let alone Emperor Yongming.
There was a mess in the bedroom, and Ning Mu hurried over with the medicine box. As soon as he came in, Emperor Yongming yelled anxiously: "Stop saluting, and give the empress a pulse!"
Ning Mu ignored the sweat on his forehead, and quickly came to the Queen's side to check his pulse. When Ning Mu's fingers touched his wrist, the Queen and Emperor Yongming held their breaths, and even King Luo Rong couldn't help feeling a little nervous. If the queen is really pregnant, it means that the eldest son of the royal family, the future prince may appear! As a member of the royal family, King Luo Rong didn't look forward to the birth of his eldest son.
Ning Mu calmed down and carefully checked the queen's pulse. After a while, he let go of his hands and knelt down towards the emperor: "Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, a thousand years is the pulse of joy! It has been more than a month!"
Emperor Yongming yelled, bent down and hugged the stunned queen: "Qi You! Qi You! We have a child! We have a child!"
The queen was still in a daze. It was not easy for a man to get pregnant. Although he ate the fairy fruit and then ate the pregnancy fruit, he really didn't expect to get pregnant so soon. According to Ning Mu's diagnosis, he should have become pregnant not long after eating the pregnancy fruit. The fruit embryos on his body haven't all subsided yet.
The significance of this child to Emperor Yongming and the Empress is self-evident. King Luo Rong and Guo Zimu couldn't go back at all. Prince Murong, who had been anxiously waiting for the news in the mansion, waited for the news from the palace, and it was Zhuo Jin who came here in person. The queen often didn't need him to wait on her when she was staying overnight in the emperor's palace, so Zhuo Jin was not there at that time. Knowing that the emperor summoned Guo Zimu to cook sweet and sour fish for the queen, and that all these things happened because the queen was pregnant, Murong Shizi was relieved and happy for the emperor. But thinking of the gloomy father when he left, Guo Zimu's fear when he left, and the son Murong's dissatisfaction with the emperor's carelessness, if not for his father's composure, there would be some troubles.
The queen is pregnant, and the news spread out of the palace that night. Immediately after the ecstasy, Emperor Yongming issued several orders to ensure the safety of the queen. I don't know how many people don't want the queen to give birth safely, so Emperor Yongming had to guard against it. Emperor Yongming sent people to Zhongyong Village again, asking Wang Shaozhengjun to return to Beijing as soon as possible, and Zhongyong Hou Keyi continued to stay in Zhongyong Village. The empress only wants to eat the dishes cooked by Shao Yun'an. Although Guo Zimu's cooking skills are not bad, but his identity is inappropriate after all. In addition to Guo Zimu's appearance, the emperor should try his best to avoid suspicion in order to avoid the empress's jealousy and to avoid gossip. Things like tonight, if it wasn’t for King Luo Rong to accompany him into the palace, there might be some troubles, and the little eunuch who went to pass the decree, King Luo Rong has never seen it again anyway —
