Chapter 826 Meal Together

Honored Princess Jing was smiling since her issue seemed to be solved.

However, the Empress Dowager frowned and showed some dissatisfaction.

The King was her own son, and she could set up her son in any way she wanted, because she was doing it for the King’s sake, but the plan was still based on some ill intention, so Honored Princess Jing’s smiling attitude made her feel uncomfortable.

So she no longer showed a good expression to her. Instead, she said with a sunken expression. “I told you not to get involved, just take care of your own part. It is getting late, so go and take a break, we are going back to the court tomorrow.”

Honored Princess Jing’s smile froze. She had no idea what irritated her Aunt suddenly, so she greeted her and left quietly.

Seeing her retreating figure, the Empress Dowager picked up her teacup and drank some tea.

Aunt Gui next to her said seeing how the Empress Dowager looked, “Don’t get mad, Honored Princess Jing has been in the court for more than two decades, and you know her well. Only Honored Princess Jing remained after the selection of new girls years back, just because she is honest and relatively slow in the head. She forgot to think thoroughly as she was next to you, but she would not have any ill intentions, otherwise she would not have shown it directly.” Aunt Gui barely spoke in front of the Empress Dowager before, but the reason why she would console the Empress Dowager was because the Empress Dowager was too old to get irritated easily.

The position of heir for Lord Ling was not yet confirmed and the Empress Dowager was burdened with too many things, so Aunt Gui hoped that she would be less burdened.

The Empress Dowager sighed.

“I am not really angry at her, just feeling a bit annoyed. Nothing serious. You are right, Aunt Gui, otherwise I would not have helped her all this time,” the Empress Dowager said and gave Aunt Gui an reassuring look.

Aunt Gui nodded, then she helped the Empress Dowager with washing-up. That day passed by in this way, and everyone felt quite exhausted. The following day it was a very warm and sunny Spring day. The Queen woke up early and Aunt Nan helped her to eat breakfast in the yard.

Aunt Nan was very concerned about the Queen, who had to suffer so much just to get out of the cage-like court. She would try her best to take good care of her.

Zhao Yigiu was an early bird too. He went to prepare the medicine the moment he woke up.

So when the breakfast was ready, Zhao Yiqiu’s medicine was ready too. He came with the medicine personally and placed it on the table, saying gently to the Queen. “Have some breakfast first, the medicine can wait.”

The Queen nodded and said nothing, but she and Zhao Yiqiu cooperated well.

The Queen was in the worst stage, so she had no energy to talk, but her messages were passed along, even though she could not talk.

Because of her social status, Zhao Yiqiu was not allowed to eat breakfast with the Queen, but Zhao Yiqiu was sitting not far from the table and watching her.

The moment the King arrived and saw the Queen eating breakfast alone, he smiled. He felt as if they were back in the past when they enjoyed themselves at the Weiyang Palace.

“Get me a pair of chopsticks and bowls,” the King said.
