It was noon.
At the Qin Mansion, Song Ruyue was wearing an apron and preparing lunch in the kitchen.
Mei'er, Qing'er and others helped on the side.
Xiaodie was also picking vegetables nearby.
Song Ruyue put the washed bones into the pot, added ginger and scallions, then covered the pot and prepared to cook the soup.
At this moment, Butler Zhou suddenly came hurriedly and said outside the door: "Madam, His Majesty is here, and he is almost at the door!"
When these words were spoken, the people in the kitchen were immediately startled.
Song Ruyue hurriedly took off her apron and washed her hands, then walked quickly to the gate with the maids, and turned around and ordered: "Xiaodie, go and inform Weimo and ask her to come out to greet you."
Xiaodie agreed and hurried to the backyard.
Song Ruyue brought the maids and quickly came to the gate and went down the stairs.
A team of guards surrounded a luxurious carriage, which slowly drove in from the alley ahead and soon came closer.
Song Ruyue hurriedly brought all the maids to pay homage.
During the time when Luo Qingzhou was away from Beijing, Nangong Huoyue would often come to the Qin Mansion to talk to the Second Miss Qin, so she had already told them not to kneel and kowtow.
Yuewu opened the curtain of the car.
Luo Qingzhou supported the Queen, who was wearing a fiery red dress, and got out of the carriage.
However, he is Chu Feiyang now.
Although he tried his best to persuade her and did not want to come with Her Majesty the Queen, he could not refuse.
Her Majesty the Queen is determined to show off her power.
"Mrs. Qin, please excuse me."
Nangong Huoyue got off the carriage and personally went over to support Song Ruyue who was bowing her head and saluting. She said with a smile on her face, "I came here today to relax and talk to Wei Mo. By the way, I want to tell you that Lord Qin and Young Master Qin are on their way back, so Madam Qin don't have to worry."
As soon as these words came out, Song Ruyue's face was filled with joy, and she quickly said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty."
Then he quickly invited, "Your Majesty, Master Chu, please come in."
Nangong Huoyue followed her up the stairs and suddenly turned around and asked, "Is Luo Qing in the mansion?"
Chu Feiyang, who was following behind him, twitched his mouth suddenly.
Song Ruyue immediately apologized and said, "Qingzhou was here this morning, but he should be out now. The Spring Examination is coming soon, and Qingzhou has been traveling outside recently, saying that he wants to gain knowledge and broaden his horizons, so he is rarely at home. If Your Majesty wants to see him, let Weimo send a maid to go..."
"No need, I just asked casually."
Nangong Huoyue smiled faintly and said, "It is indeed the Spring Examination that is approaching. I will not disturb Luo Qing."
After saying that, he suddenly covered his mouth and vomited.
Song Ruyue asked hurriedly with concern: "Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell?"
Nangong Huoyue said: "I do feel a little uncomfortable."
Song Ruyue asked worriedly, "Should we go find the imperial physician to take a look?"
Nangong Huoyue sighed and said, "The imperial physician has already checked it, but it's useless."
When Song Ruyue heard this, she was immediately worried: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
Nangong Huoyue said calmly, "Madam Qin, you should ask my husband. It's all his fault. He has prevented me from handling state affairs with peace of mind for some time. Humph."
Luo Qingzhou: “…”
At this time.
Miss Qin II, supported by Qiu'er and Xiaodie, walked out of the courtyard weakly and bowed her head to greet them.
"vomit-"
At this moment, Nangong Huoyue suddenly dry-heaved at the right time.
Miss Qin raised her head.
Song Ruyue quickly turned around and asked, "Master Chu, what happened to His Majesty? If you feel uncomfortable somewhere, you need to get treatment immediately."
Everyone inside and outside the door looked at someone.
Luo Qingzhou secretly sighed in his heart, and had to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty is fine, it's just... pregnant."
When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
Song Ruyue reacted immediately, and said with a face full of joy: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is pregnant. This is God's blessing. God bless our Great Yan!"
Miss Qin Er had a look of astonishment on her face.
Luo Qingzhou made eye contact with her, then looked away guiltily.
Although he just found out.
Nangong Huoyue glanced at Miss Qin Er, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly, seeming to be very satisfied with her reaction.
pity…
She glanced at the other people in the door, but didn't see the person she wanted to see.
"Your Majesty, please come in! Come in and sit down. It's windy outside, be careful not to catch a cold."
Song Ruyue hurriedly supported him with a smile on her face.
She seemed genuinely happy for Her Majesty the Queen.
Luo Qingzhou followed behind and entered the gate. Then he quietly approached Miss Qin Er and whispered, "I only found out when I entered the palace this morning..."
Miss Qin II glanced at him dimly and said nothing.
Luo Qingzhou suddenly felt a little uneasy.
He was first the son-in-law of the Qin family, and then the husband of the empress. But now the empress is pregnant first.
And he felt even more sorry for Xiaodie.
Xiaodie has been talking about the baby in her belly for a long time.
He just felt that it was not the right time, so he didn't dare to ask for it. Who could have known that Her Majesty the Queen would fall for it.
My uncle-master has done this so many times and each time he didn’t take any defensive measures, so how come nothing happened
The Qin family surrounded Her Majesty the Queen and entered the living room.
Song Ruyue asked cautiously, "Has Your Majesty had his meal?"
Nangong Huoyue sat down on the chair and said, "Not yet."
When Song Ruyue heard this, she quickly ordered, "Qing'er, Mei'er, go and prepare some more delicious dishes. Butler Zhou, go buy a fresh fish. I will cook for you myself."
Several people agreed and immediately withdrew.
Nangong Huoyue did not refuse and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Madam Qin."
Song Ruyue smiled and said, "No trouble, no trouble. Your Majesty, please chat with Wei Mo first. I will go to the kitchen first."
Nangong Huoyue suddenly said, "I want to walk around the mansion. Is that convenient?"
Song Ruyue quickly said: "It's convenient, of course it's convenient."
Then he quickly said to his daughter, "Wei Mo, accompany His Majesty to the palace, please don't be rude."
Miss Qin bowed her head slightly and said, "Yes."
Song Ruyue retreated in a hurry.
Nangong Huoyue stood up, stretched out a jade hand, and looked at someone.
Luo Qingzhou went over to support her and whispered, "Your Majesty, you are going to..."
"backyard."
Nangong Huoyue went straight out the door and walked towards the backyard with ease.
Miss Qin followed behind with Qiu'er and Zhu'er.
Yuewu and several female guards followed at the end.
Nangong Huoyue first came to Meixiang Garden, stood at the door and looked for a while, then turned around and looked at the weak girl behind him and said, "Wei Mo, is Luo Qing treating you well?"
Miss Qin Er glanced at someone, lowered her head slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Brother Qingzhou treats Weimo very well."
Nangong Huoyue's eyes moved, and she also glanced at someone, and said, "He often goes out, be careful that he doesn't cheat on you. Talented men are all romantic and like to have affairs everywhere. Don't let him come back with a group of women."
Miss Qin lowered her head and said nothing.
Nangong Huoyue said meaningfully: "But it doesn't matter, you are the legal wife anyway. No matter how many women he brings back, he still has to call you sister."
After saying that, she continued to walk forward.
Then, it stopped in front of the gate of Lingchanyue Palace.
Looking at the closed gate, a complicated look appeared in her eyes.
Miss Qin raised her head and glanced at her, then whispered, "Your Majesty, Bailing is at home..."
The first few times she came, Bai Ling made the Queen very angry.
So she gave a reminder today.
When Nangong Huoyue heard this, her face suddenly darkened and she said, "So what if I'm at home? Could it be that I'm afraid of that little girl?"
After that, he ordered someone beside him: "Go, knock on the door."
Luo Qingzhou whispered, "Your Majesty, shall we go to the garden at the back? There's nothing fun here."
Nangong Huoyue narrowed her eyes immediately: "Are you going to knock or not?"
Luo Qingzhou took a look at her expression and didn't dare to disobey her. He had to go over and knock on the door.
"Winter! Winter! Winter!"
Soon, a clear and pleasant voice came from inside: "Who? Who's outside, dong dong dong?"
Luo Qingzhou coughed and said, "Is that Miss Bailing? His Majesty has arrived, come out and greet him."
Someone inside immediately said, "It's not Xiao Bailing. Xiao Bailing is not here."
Luo Qingzhou could only ask: "Who are you? Open the door quickly."
There seemed to be a pause inside, and then the voice immediately changed to a shrill one: "I... I'm a little parrot. I can only imitate human speech, coo, coo, coo. I can't open the door. There's no one at home, only me, a poor little parrot."
Luo Qingzhou was speechless. He turned around and looked at Her Majesty the Queen.
Nangong Huoyue said with a cold face: "I don't care. If you don't let her open the door today, I will hold you responsible!"
Luo Qingzhou said: "How about breaking in?"
Nangong Huoyue immediately said in a cold voice: "We are here to visit, not to rob. I just want to go in and visit Miss Qin."
Luo Qingzhou could only whisper: "Miss Qin has nothing to visit. She doesn't like to talk and may not pay attention to Your Majesty."
Nangong Huoyue immediately glanced at him and asked, "How do you know? Are you familiar with her?"
Luo Qingzhou lowered his head and said, "I have seen this before when I came to the Qin Mansion."
Nangong Huoyue narrowed her eyes and said, "I am going to go in today! You are so powerful, and I am pregnant with your child, can't you even do this?"
She deliberately amplified the volume of this sentence.
Luo Qingzhou had no choice but to say: "How about I jump in and open the door for Your Majesty?"
Upon hearing this, Nangong Huoyue pondered for a moment and looked at Miss Qin Er beside her.
Unexpectedly, Miss Qin nodded and whispered, "Yes."
Luo Qingzhou glanced at her and was about to jump in when the courtyard door suddenly opened with a creak.
Bai Ling poked her head out from the crack in the door, looked at them with her bright eyes, and asked, "Who's pregnant?"
Nangong Huoyue looked very proud: "I!"
Bai Ling blinked, looked at her and said, "Who is your majesty with?"
Nangong Huoyue's eyes flashed with anger, and she said, "Of course it's with my husband, Chu Feiyang!"
Bailing was stunned for a moment, didn't say anything, and looked at someone.
Luo Qingzhou turned his head guiltily.
The air suddenly became quiet.
After a while.
"Oh, congratulations, Your Majesty."
Bailing said this calmly, then closed the gate with a bang and bolted it with a loud noise.
Nangong Huoyue opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end, nothing came out.
They stood outside the door for a while.
She turned around and said, "Let's go. Since Miss Qin doesn't welcome me, I'll go somewhere else."
There was a thoughtful look in her eyes.
The few of them strolled around the garden at the back and other places for a while.
Qing'er came over and called them to eat.
When the group arrived at the front hall, they suddenly found Bai Ling, who was wearing a pink dress, standing in the corridor, holding a flower in her hand and sniffing it drunkenly.
Xia Chan stood beside her, holding a sword with a cold expression.
At this time, Xiaodie walked out of the hall. After seeing Miss Qin Er, she hurried over and whispered, "Miss Qin Er, Miss Qin Er is here too."
Miss Qin was slightly startled when she heard this.
After hearing this, Luo Qingzhou's heart suddenly skipped a beat for some reason and he became even more uneasy.
"Is Miss Qin finally willing to come out?"
Nangong Huoyue's eyes moved, he raised his eyebrows, and walked straight through the corridor.
Luo Qingzhou and Miss Qin II hurriedly followed behind.
When passing by Bai Ling and Xia Chan, Bai Ling ignored them, sniffed the flowers in her hand, and muttered: "A clown will always be a clown, hum!"
