Chapter 235 He Looks So Sour
Recently, she has been busy giving Ruyi and Madam Wei a big fight. In fact, Yanwan has always only paid lip service to these old enemies.
Today is also a perfect occasion.
It's confinement, and I have nothing to do anyway, so I just do something with Concubine Chun as a pastime.
Hongli was now increasingly reluctant to see her lower her head and look submissive, as if she were a little white fox who was afraid in her heart but dared not show it, which made people feel uncomfortable watching her.
He said gently, "You just gave birth, and you still have to stay in confinement for two months. I have to follow the rules and cannot come to see you often. Don't be willful in taking care of your health. As for the rest, you are now a concubine, so it's okay for you to be a little arrogant."
This was quite new to Yan Wan: "Can a concubine really be so arrogant and domineering?"
Hongli said calmly: "Of course, if one cannot be arrogant and domineering even if he becomes a noble concubine, then what is the point of trying so hard to climb up in the harem?"
Yan Wan reached out and grabbed his sleeve: "Then, I will be a little arrogant. If Your Majesty finds that I am being too arrogant, you must tell me. I will definitely listen to you."
Hongli was amused: "You!"
It was really hard for him not to like staying at her place. Even if he did nothing, his whole body would be relaxed.
This relaxation is different from the one I felt with Ruyi.
With Wanwan, he felt happy and at ease.
With Ruyi, he felt physically comfortable, but his brain seemed to be forcefully stuffed with soft gold, causing him to retch constantly.
He closed his eyes and said, "I really don't want to leave your Yongshou Palace."
He held Yan Wan in his arms and said, "Get well soon. I want to take you out of the palace for a walk."
Yan Wan lay in his arms, tugged at his beard with a wicked smile, "Your Majesty, you really love me, and you don't mind that I smell bad, you just hug me like this."
Hongli: “…”
He held Yan Wan's hand for a moment, then tightened it for a few more seconds, pretending to change the subject casually: "What do you want to eat for lunch?"
Yan Wan looked outside eagerly: "Your Highness sent a message yesterday saying that you might come to see me today. As long as Your Highness can come, I will be happy to eat anything."
Hongli sighed in his heart, looked at Yanwan's eyes full of expectation, and lowered his eyes to look at her: "I did not execute Wei, nor did I exile your brother."
Yan Wan froze, her body seemed to tremble slightly, and she fell on his knees without saying a word.
Hongli's voice was not loud, but it could be heard that he was trying to comfort people in a gentle voice: "I think these two people are your mother and brother after all. If they are exiled for serious crimes, you will become the descendant of a criminal.
Fortunately, this incident did not become a big deal, and only a limited number of people knew about it. I have already locked your mother and brother up in a small courtyard in the eastern suburbs. They will never step out of the courtyard and cause you trouble in their lifetime. "
Yanwan raised her eyes and shed tears silently.
Hongli's heart was wrinkled tightly. He wiped her tears with his warm hands and coaxed her in a low voice: "You are still in confinement. If you cry now, your eyes will hurt in the future."
Yan Wan didn't say anything, but just buried her head in his heart, and soon her tears burned his chest.
Hongli patted her back in silence. When her body stopped shaking, he spoke again, "You can't have everything in life. Some things you can get if you fight for them, but some things, like kinship, you can't get them no matter how hard you try."
Yan Wan hugged his thin waist tightly and said sullenly: "I am not sad. Although my biological mother and brother do not love me, I have found a mother who loves me and a sister who likes me."
As luck would have it, just as she finished speaking, Chunchan came from outside the door with the good news that the Queen and Princess Jingjue had arrived.
Yan Wan hurriedly climbed up from Hongli's arms, wiped away her tears in a panic, and asked Hongli: "What should I do? If the queen sees me crying, she will be worried!"
Before Hongli could say anything, she pushed him to help her find cosmetics: "In the innermost small drawer, there's the emerald box! Quick! Your Majesty, quick!"
Hongli walked quickly to the dressing table with a confused look on his face and found the emerald box for her.
Unfortunately, just as he gave the rouge to Yan Wan, Empress Fucha came in with Jing Jue.
For a moment, the four of them stared at each other.
Empress Fucha looked at Yanwan's red eyes and felt distressed: "Good child, you have suffered."
Yan Wan originally wanted to pretend, but Empress Fucha's just one sentence was enough to make her completely defeated.
She choked and called out "Oh my God" and struggled to get up.
Empress Fucha helped Jingjue to the bedside and hugged her: "Does it hurt?"
Yanwan threw herself into her arms and sobbed.
"My dear, these two children are so heavy in my belly. It seems like they are going to burst my belly!"
"When I went to bed at night, the two children were fighting and kicking me so hard that I couldn't sleep all night!"
"It's really painful to give birth to two children at once! And someone is looking for trouble with me. I also heard that you fell into the water!"
"My lady, I don't even dare to think about it. If you were gone, how would I live in the future?"
……
She cried her head off.
Empress Fucha's eyes were full of tears. She touched and patted him, feeling extremely distressed: "It's okay, it's okay. You already have twins, a boy and a girl. You don't have to have more children in the future if you don't want to."
Yan Wan subconsciously retorted: "That won't work!"
She still has so many children of hers. She failed to protect them before because she was not capable enough. How could she not take good care of them this time?
Especially her Yongyan, who had participated in the battle for the crown prince at such a young age in his previous life. As his mother, she had never helped him at all and even held him back. He was so obedient and filial...
She wiped her tears quickly, and seeing Empress Fucha's eyes red from her crying, she felt regretful and ashamed: "It was me who made you cry, and I don't know why, but I suddenly couldn't help it."
Empress Fucha gently touched her hair and said, "This is how women should stay in confinement after giving birth. Wanwan has done a great job."
Yanwan felt a lump in her throat and almost burst into tears again.
She quickly shifted her attention, and then saw Hongli standing aside with a subtle look on his face.
It was really strange. She hurriedly ordered him to do things, but he didn't look angry. Instead, he looked... very jealous.
But Yan Wan only paid a little attention to it, and then she ignored his sourness and shamelessly acted like a spoiled child: "Your Majesty, I was so anxious that I asked you to help me. You just allowed me to be a little more arrogant... You won't blame me, right?"
Empress Fucha looked at Hongli tenderly: "Wanwan has just returned from the gates of hell twice, and she is still thinking about taking the risk of giving birth to a child for the emperor. The emperor is generous and kind, and he will definitely not mind her occasional impoliteness."
Hongli: “…”
He admitted that he was jealous at this moment.
Really sour.
