Ji Ling Xue came out of her thoughts and said to nanny Rong: "Did you say something nanny?"
Nanny Rong shook her head, pointing outside: "Empress, the sun is about to set, do you want to take a walk outside?"
Ji Ling Xue nodded, "Let's take a walk."
She was pregnant with twins, Bai Mo repeatedly urged her she must move more in the last trimester, otherwise it would be hard for her to give birth.
Nanny Rong cautiously helped Ji Ling Xue walk slowly around the imperial garden, there were more variations of flowers in the garden.
Nanny Rong said: "If empress gets tired, we can rest at the pavilion in front?"
There was a pavilion fifty steps ahead of them, Ji Ling Xue walked over to the pavilion with the help of nanny Rong, close by the flowers and leaves on the branches rustled, currently there was no wind, Ji Ling Xue made a gesture for nanny Rong to keep quiet.
A whisper entered Ji Ling Xue's ears, the imperial garden was quiet, even if they spoke quietly, it could be heard.
Nanny Rong frowned, the empress didn't like a lot of people following her in the imperial garden, that's why she had cleared the place out, why was there someone disturbing them.
"Did you find out?" The voice was very young, only fifteen or sixteen years old.
"I found out, the emperor always leaves the imperial study to walk around the imperial garden at that time, it's the safest if we wait here for the emperor, it also won't be too obvious, you just have to be patient and wait."
"I'm very nervous, I heard the emperor is beyond handsome, do you think the emperor will like me, will he bestow me the title of beauty?"
"That will depend on your abilities, you're so pretty, the emperor will surely be moved when he sees you, what's more the empress is currently pregnant with the prince and cannot serve the emperor, I found out, there ware no other concubines in the palace apart from the empress."
Nanny Rong's face turned darker as she listened, this little girl wasn't working but indulging in her fantasies of wanting to fly and become a phoenix, why don't they think about who they are, is such a lowly born servant suitable? What's more, the emperor isn't a lecher, he and the empress are husband and wife, lovingly affectionate, if not he wouldn't have spoiled the empress alone for so long.
Nanny Rong rolled up her sleeves, looking like she was about to fight, Ji Ling Xue's eyes trembled, hurriedly pulling nanny Rong to hide behind a tree, don't misjudge her large belly, when she needed to be nimble she could be.
Nanny Rong's old face was turning green with anger, gnashing her teeth: "Empress, what are you doing, those two reckless little maids ought to be taught a proper lesson." What was with the empress, she was still so kind to these lowly people.
Ji Ling Xue gave nanny Rong a be quiet look, "Nanny Rong have you calmed down, I really admire that young maids courage." How should she describe her...en, the toad wants to eat swan meat, she has ambitions.
Nanny Rong's forehead was filled with black lines, she didn't know what Ji Ling Xue was thinking, it really was a matter of the mistress not being worried worries her to death.
Time passed by slowly, footsteps were heard from closeby, Chi Feng's voice also came from a distance, "Plum flowers full from the rain, the pavilion in early summer, the night before the Queen of night cactus blooms. Emperor, these night cactus were sent from Beiling, sadly the cactus only blooms at night, this official wants to see them but can't."
Xiao Yi Chen said: "You wan to see the cactus bloom, it's not a problem, we will send two pots to your residence."
"Many thanks your majesty!" Chi Feng immediately bowed.
It was at this moment, a girls voice cried out in alarm from behind the shrubs, Xiao Yi Chen looked at Chi Feng, Chi Feng walked behind the shrub, he saw a maid sit on the ground in pain, another girl was helping her, "Hong Xian, are you alright, where are you hurt?"
Chi Feng enthusiastically squatted down to ask; "Do you need help?"
That maid called Hong Xian turned to look, under the Japanese roses, a cultured and refined man in white, elegant, her heart leapt happily.
Hong Xian said with a red face: "This servant is Hong Xian, just now I passed by, I didn't think a snake would appear...this servant try to flee but fell over."
Chi Feng looked around and asked: "Where's that snake?" That snake couldn't come out and disturb the emperor's walk.
Seeing Chi Feng get up and look for the snake she spoke of, Hong Xian's forehead was filled with black lines, the main point in her words wasn't this, she had hurt herself alright?
Ji Ling Xue hiding nearby looked out to watch Xiao Yi Chen, fortunately Xiao Yi Chen was also heading her way.
Xiao Yi Chen's lips raised into a slight smile, his mood was rather good, he held her waist, nanny Rong tacitly disappeared.
Xiao Yi Chen asked: "Why is the empress behind a tree?" Was she here to watch a good show?
Ji Ling Xue lifted her head to look at the leaves above her: "It's cool under the tree, such a coincidence, the emperor is also here for a stroll."
Xiao Yi Chen nodded, "En, the evenings are refreshing, we also like to take a stroll at this time, I didn't think the empress would have the same thought."
Ji Ling Xue curled her lip, "I just heard Chi Feng's voice, where is he?"
Xiao Yi Chen said: "Something happened over there, he's helping us resolve it, let's go, we will accompany the empress for a stroll." As he spoke he pulled Ji Ling Xue's arm forward, not at all curious as to what was happening behind the bush.
Ji Ling Xue took two steps then tilted her head to look at Xiao Yi Chen, the setting sun shone on his face, showing a layer of gentleness.
Xiao Yi Chen tilted his head and smiled: "What is with the empress today, why are you looking at us like that?"
Ji Ling Xue said: "Do you really not know what happened just now?" A little maid in admiration of the noble emperor, using all her efforts to create an opportunity for the emperor to look at her, this scenario often appeared in books.
Xiao Yi Chen said: "Empress is talking about the shriek behind the bush just now? Don't worry, we have already increased the protection in the palace so there won't be any assassins, I guess it's some maid who tripped over a branch and shrieked."
Ji Ling Xue rolled her eyes, since Xiao Yi Chen wouldn't just say it, she could only ask directly, "I passed by just now and heard that maid's conversation..."
Xiao Yi Chen raised an eyebrow, waiting for Ji Ling Xue to continue speaking.
Ji Ling Xue said: "That maid was deliberately waiting there, wanting to take a risk to see the emperor's face."
Xiao Yi Chen touched his face, then looked at Ji Ling Xue, "Empress wants to know whether or not we knew about this?"
Ji Ling Xue nodded, "You really didn't?"
Xiao Yi Chen made a fist and placed it against his mouth and coughed, he smiled, "That...we listened to a secret guard, whether or not we would be taking a stroll with Chi Feng." Using Chi Feng to protect him from an admirer, only he could shamelessly do it.
Xiao Yi Chen tugged on Ji Ling Xue's hand, pulling her forward, changing the subject: "Empress take a look, that Japanese rose is so pretty, we specially ordered someone to plant it."
Ever since the day the maid came to the imperial garden in hope of seeing the emperor's face, this type of incident never happened again, Xiao Yi Chen had ordered, wherever he appeared there could be no maids.
With such an order, a group of maids wanting to change from a sparrow to a phoenix all lamented, the eunuchs benefited and were given preferential treatment, especially the eunuchs who served the emperor would receive little gifts every day, hoping they would mention them in front of the emperor, it was such a pity that once gifts were given, they were unable to wait for any good news.
Every ten days or so, she would receive a letter from Ru Yi and Ru Ge, Ru Yi became less worried about the future, she spoke more of her and the bunny and Mo Xiang.
Ru Ge didn't mention getting ready to be married in his letters, at most he felt indifferent to everything, after the old Dayan emperor passed away from old age he became the emperor, the Ru Yi he married obviously became the empress of Dayan, after they married they treated each other respectfully, Ru Yi relied on Mo Xiang to improve her cooking, Ru Ge began to handle the affairs of the nation.
When nanny Rong saw Ji Ling Xue had received a letter she would ask, "Empress, when is Mo Xiang returning?"
Ji Ling Xue shook her head, "The letter doesn't say, I reckon soon."
Nanny Rong turned worried when she heard this, suspecting Ru Yi had locked Mo Xiang up in Dayan and not let her go.
Ji Ling Xue said: "Nanny Rong don't worry, Mo Xiang will return." Only she'll return a little late.
In a flash two months passed, Ji Ling Xue's stomach was already bursting, every day her feet were extremely swollen, Xiao Yi Chen had already invited two midwives to live at the side palace hall in case anything happened at any time, Ji Ling Xue counted the days with her fingers, being pregnant for ten months yet the days still passed so slowly.
While Ji Ling Xue felt like the days were passing by like years, something very happy happened, Mo Xiang returned and brought along Dayan speciality products as well as a gift from the new Dayan emperor, offering her best wishes for a son to be born soon.
Mo Xiang came before Ji Ling Xue covered in dust, having been away for three months, Mo Xiang's fair face had tanned quite a bit, the originally young girl had matured, pulling on Ji Ling Xue's hand, Mo Xiang said with red eyes: "Mistress, this servant is back."
Ji Ling Xue moved her hip, changing to a more comfortable position to sit then she gave Mo Xiang a half hug, "I and the babies in the belly welcomes you back."
Mo Xiang spluttered out a laugh, carefully stroking Ji Ling Xue's belly, feeling the movement inside, Mo Xiang smiled: "Mistress, the little prince is kicking this servant, he is also very happy."
Ji Ling Xue smiled: "You've returned, now I can have a safe labour, did anything interesting happen on your journey?"
Mo Xiang's face turned red, but shook her head, "Mistress is making fun of this servant again!" Out of embarrassment she turned her head as she spoke.
Ji Ling Xue felt a pain in her stomach, at first she thought she had eaten too much last night, then he stomach became even more painful, the entire Chenhua palace was in a state of nervousness.
Xiao Yi Chen who had been reading through memorials in the study directly flew over using light martial arts to Chenhua palace when he heard the news, but nanny Rong stopped him at the door not allowing him to enter, the reason was the delivery room was dirty, a respectable emperor can't be dirtied, otherwise it'll be bad luck.
Xiao Yi Chen stared at nanny Rong, anxiously pacing back and forth outside.
Inside the delivery room, Mo Xiang carried over hot water, helping Ji Ling Xue wipe the sweat from her forehead, "Mistress, how do you feel?"
Ji Ling Xue was numb with the pain, her whole body was covered in sweat, she shook her head, using all her strength to spit out, "Pain..."
The two midwives continuously encouraged Ji Ling Xue: "Empress, use some force, the birth canal isn't open yet..."
Empress, use more strength, this servant can see the little prince's head, use more strength, he's about to come out.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
Ji Ling Xue came out of her thoughts and said to nanny Rong: "Did you say something nanny?"
Nanny Rong shook her head, pointing outside: "Empress, the sun is about to set, do you want to take a walk outside?"
