One touch and one silence

It's a pity that being alone will always make you lonely and bored.

In late spring and early summer, the weather gradually becomes hotter.

At this time, some people in the palace began to regret why they had scheduled the second prince's wedding in the hot summer.

He wanted to escape the summer heat, but was afraid of hurting the imperial concubine's feelings.

I had no choice but to wait until my second brother’s wedding was over before making any plans.

If we were to ask who are the busiest people in the capital, they would definitely be the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Concubine.

The Imperial Concubine was not satisfied with the choice of the Second Prince's wife because she was from the Queen's family and was also the Queen's niece, but she had no way to change what His Majesty had decided.

Fortunately, His Majesty handed over the matter of selecting a concubine to her. Now that she has money, except for the lack of manpower under her command, it is enough for her to operate secretly.

The imperial concubine, who had just finished her work and was about to take a break, lay down on the couch and casually picked up a piece of dessert and started eating.

Meixiang walked over somewhat awkwardly.

Cheng Yueqing raised her eyebrows and just glanced at Meixiang out of the corner of her eyes. Her tone was not bad, and it was obvious that she was in a good mood.

"My lady, that person is here again to ask us when we will fulfill our promise."

Cheng Yueqing put down the snack in her hand and chuckled.

"Let him wait! Why are you in such a hurry? Besides, how dare a dying man urge me to wait!"

"Let someone teach him a lesson. He really thinks he can be my master just by giving me some money. It's a joke!"

Meixiang hesitated, wanting to remind her but not daring to speak.

"Why are you looking like that?" Cheng Yueqing had a look of disgust between her brows.

Even though he has followed her for so many years, he still seems hesitant.

Meixiang felt that the queen was a little angry and immediately knelt down.

"My Lady, that person only gave us half. Although it is enough for now, if we want to have enough manpower as soon as possible, it may still be insufficient."

"If we just cross the river and destroy the bridge, I'm afraid..."

Meixiang's words calmed the imperial concubine down a lot. She was quite smart.

"Get up! If you have anything to say, just tell me later!"

Cheng Yueqing glanced at Meixiang as she spoke. Meixiang broke out in a cold sweat. The queen was warning her, so she quickly admitted her mistake, "I know I am wrong!"

"Okay, tell him that the opportunity will come soon, and let him wait patiently."

"By the way, let's check what the Queen said to Prince Anle in the East Palace."

She always felt that the Queen's attitude towards Prince Anle was no longer the same as before.

Although she knew that there might be some problems with the Crown Prince disregarding his own safety to shield Prince Anle from the arrow, if it were her, she would probably also take some measures.

There is a difference between a biological son and a son that is picked up for free.

Her son was about to get married, and she never thought that one day she would be able to see her own son get married.

It can be said that her wish was fulfilled.

Even though she has been particularly tired recently, she is still happy with it, because she is her son!

If I were an adult!

Unfortunately, no matter how hard she searched, she couldn’t find the third child.

Maybe!

never mind!

Don't be too greedy. It's already God's mercy that we have found our two children.

"Somebody come!"

"What has the princess been busy with these days?" She has been busy with her son's affairs recently and has somewhat neglected her daughter.

When the nanny heard the imperial concubine's question, a smile appeared on her face.

"My lady, I heard from Qinglian that the princess is embroidering a handkerchief for you!"

"I heard that some of them have been embroidered, but the princess feels that it is not enough, so she plans to embroider a hundred-flower handkerchief for you. I heard that they have already embroidered the peony."

"I even went to the Imperial Garden today to see it!"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Yueqing showed a loving look on her face, "Let someone remind you not to hurt your eyes. You don't need to embroider so much. It's enough as long as the thought is there."

The nanny also responded with a smile, "Who said it wasn't? The princess finally realized your kindness. It shows that everything you did was worth it."

Cheng Yueqing smiled gently, "Yes! After all, this is the child I gave birth to after ten months of pregnancy."

"Go! Have someone take good care of the princess. I will go see her after her brother's wedding is over."

After hearing this, the nanny happily agreed and left the room.

Inside the palace, the lights were on, and everyone was preparing for the Second Prince's wedding. Only the East Palace was completely silent.

The Crown Prince was still in the study, doing the tasks assigned to him by his father, when the Crown Princess walked in with her maid carrying a food box.

"My Lord! It's late at night!"

"Please take care of yourself!"

The prince put down the pen in his hand, stood up and greeted the crown princess.

"Why did you deliver it yourself? Just let a maid do it. Don't tire yourself out."

When the Crown Princess heard the Crown Prince's considerate words, her heart was filled with sweetness and a hint of shyness appeared on her face.

"I am worried about others. Besides, I am also worried that the Crown Prince is not taking care of his health." The Crown Princess picked up a white jade bowl and scooped some out of a white jade jar.

"This is lotus seed and white fungus soup. I have chilled it. Please try it, sir!"

The prince took the bowl from the princess, scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth. It was icy and really delicious.

He had been feeling a little upset recently, but after drinking this bowl of soup, he felt a lot better.

After finishing a bowl, he put down the jade bowl in his hand and took the Crown Princess's hand.

"Let's go, it's getting late, let's go to bed early!"

The Crown Princess was led back to the bedroom by the Crown Prince with a blushing face.

At this time, the Crown Princess had no idea why she came. It was a warm night.

-

In the Jiangnan Palace, Nanzhi touched her belly when no one was around at night and fell into deep thought.

Has she fallen recently?

But she didn't eat much either, except for the medicine she drank a lot.

But this thing can’t be caused by traditional Chinese medicine, right?

Can Chinese medicine make people fat?

How about she ask the old doctor tomorrow?

After thinking it over, I finally decided to exercise. Otherwise, it would be so ugly if I became a prince with a big belly!

Nanzhi was extremely conflicted, but she decided to just run around her palace early tomorrow morning.

Finally, Nanzhi fell asleep while pinching her chubby belly. Nanzhi, who originally wanted to run, had her hopes dashed because it started raining in Jiangnan.

Nanzhi looked at the heavy rain outside the window and fell into deep thought.

Even God shattered her hopes. It was really unfortunate.

She glanced at Liu Yue who was sitting next to her reading a book and asked quietly.

"Yue! Do you notice that I, your master, have gained a lot of weight?"

When Liu Yue heard the prince's words, she finally raised her eyes from the sketchbook and looked at the prince.

After a moment, Liu Yue replied seriously, "No, it's just your illusion!"

Nanzhi touched her face and found that there was indeed not much flesh on it, but all the flesh had grown on her stomach!

She was really sad.

"Hey! You won't understand even if I tell you!"

This made Liu Yue laugh, "If Your Majesty doesn't tell me, how do you know that Liu Yue doesn't understand?"
