Pregnant Before the Royal Marriage - Chapter 459
Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Looking Forward to the Next Bed Attendance
Concubine Xian’s heart was trembling with regret.
Only after she vented her anger did the palace maids dare to clean up the room.
Fu Liu brought her some tea, and tried to comfort her delicately: “Your Highness, his Majesty’s temper is always like this. There were occurrences like this when we used to serve in his bedchamber often. Once his temper subsides, he will naturally return.”
“Really?”
Concubine Xian lifted her face.
Her eyes were somewhat swollen from crying, her cheeks stained with tear marks, and her face puffy.
Her hair was also disordered, exposing strands of white hair.
Fu Liu assisted her in sitting on the edge of the bed and said softly: “You also said this, our emperor is not a cold and unfeeling man. He would naturally come to visit the concubines who have sons or daughters in the harem. Besides, your family is also supporting you.”
Concubine Xian calmed down, feeling that the maid had a point.
She had only spoken a wrong sentence, causing his Majesty’s displeasure.
It was not a big deal.
She would go and apologize to his Majesty another day.
She was not the type to dwell on the past. Failures, once they happened, are left behind.
She immediately shifted her mood, and began to think about the next month.
After a moment, she asked Fu Liu: “Since his Majesty visited Concubine Jin, why did he come back?”
Fu Liu smiled: “Didn’t his Majesty say it? Concubine Jin is not ill. Therefore, his Majesty still cares about you, fearing your discomfort, he came over despite it being this late.”
Concubine Xian admitted a faint hint of joy in her heart.
In all these years, his Majesty had always had her in his heart.
Concubine Xian finally let go, thinking that next month when the Emperor comes according to habit, she would use all her skills to keep him by her side.
“Remember to remind Nanny Cha tomorrow, the medicine we drink daily must not be stopped until I am successfully carrying the emperor’s heir.”
“This servant will bear it in mind.”
The maid helped her to rest.
Concubine Xian was full of anticipation for the next time she would serve in the emperor’s bed.
However, April went by, then May, then June, until July and August at the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Emperor never once set foot in the Prosperity Palace again.
Concubine Xian was frantic.
This medicine, bowl by bowl, when would it end?
Half a year had passed in a blink of an eye, and she was one year older, how could she not worry?
Such a thing had never happened in so many years.
Even when his Majesty was extremely busy in the past, he never exceeded two months without visiting.
He would always find time to sit with her.
But Concubine Xian hadn’t seen the Emperor’s face in several months.
When the Emperor did not visit, her proactive visit to the Crystal Frost Hall was always repelled under the pretext that the Emperor was busy.
Concubine Xian was bewildered. Why the Emperor refused to see her.
Is it because that night, she unintentionally spoke ill of the censor?
Based on her understanding of the Emperor, it would not end up like this.
Then there must be some other reason.
Concubine Xian stayed in her room and thought for a long time.
In the end, she concluded that it must be Jiang Ning who was causing trouble behind her back.
Except for Jiang Ning, who else could be her enemy in the harem?
Li Hongyuan and Jiang Ning, the malicious couple, not only injured her son and daughter-in-law, they also usurped their positions. How could they let her, Concubine Xian, off?
Especially Jiang Ning, she seems like someone who would hold grudges and seek revenge.
Only she, would have the motive and the reasons to prevent her from falling pregnant during the service.
With this thought in mind, Concubine Xian could no longer sit still and she immediately set off for the East Palace with her servants.
At this moment, Jiang Ning was busy preparing for the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet.
Surely, she would not be idly stirring up trouble when she has nothing better do to, all fat and comfortable..
