"Yes, but although there are not many people in the palace now, it is still up to the Emperor to decide which sister to take with him."

As he said this, he glanced at Xiuxia.

The other party understood, turned around, took out a pen and paper and placed them in front of him.

Qingying asked again, "Your Majesty?"

Hongli thought for a moment and said, "Of course the Empress Dowager will go, and the children can't stand the heat. So, all the concubines with children will go with her."

As Hongli spoke, Qingying followed him and started writing.

After pausing for a moment, Qingying continued, "What about the new sisters who entered the palace? Your Majesty, have you brought them all with you?"

In the last selection, six people entered the palace.

Fu Cha Yi Xin has been banished to the cold palace.

As for the remaining few people, Concubine Ke still had some favor when she first entered the palace, but now she has very little favor.

Concubine Zhao and Concubine De have always been the most favored.

Lin Changzai and Chu Cheng did not even see the emperor for almost a month.

So after only a moment's thought, Hongli said, "Noble Lady De often serves the Empress Dowager, so she will go with her this time. Also, Noble Lady Zhao is knowledgeable and understanding, so she will also go."

It didn't go beyond Qingying's guess.

She wrote again, "Your Majesty, Concubine Wan has served you for many years and is a very noncompetitive person. I think she has never been to the garden before. Why not bring her along this time?"

Hongli would not refute such a trivial matter, and nodded, "Of course it is good."

"Then...where is your Excellency?"

Hongli chuckled and said, "I forgot about her, so I'll take her with me."

"Yes."

After deciding on the people who would spend the summer in the garden, and just as they were thinking about deciding where everyone would live, Xiuxia suddenly walked in.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Consort Zhao has arrived and has something important to report."

"It really is the real Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here, please come in."

Qingying smiled and Xiuxia knelt down and retreated.

Soon, Concubine Zhao helped Bai Yin into the house.

Qingying looked at the other party's cautious appearance and had some guesses in her mind.

"I pay my respects to the Emperor and the Empress."

Qingying turned around and glanced at Hongli, but for some reason, the other party had no intention of speaking.

I could only say, "No need to be polite."

"Thank you, Queen."

"It's scorching outside. You must be hot after walking all the way here. Xiuxia, please give Concubine Zhao a seat."

After thanking her again, Concubine Zhao sat down with her clothes tucked up.

"I'm sorry for coming here and disturbing the conversation between the Emperor and the Empress. I beg the Emperor and the Empress to forgive me."

"Sister, you are really too polite, but since you are here, why not tell me what's the matter?"

Concubine Zhao's attitude was naturally very good.

But he could also see the alienation hidden in the other person's eyes.

And a bit...arrogant.

Fu Cha Yi Xin was also proud in the past.

He believed that he had a cousin who was a empress, and that he came from a very good family, so he looked down on others everywhere.

Although Concubine Zhao was also proud, she was not as flamboyant as Concubine Fucha.

But after all, I am still young and cannot completely hide my emotions.

"In reply to the Empress, I've been feeling unwell these past few days. I sent for the imperial physician to take a look, and he discovered... I'm already a month pregnant..."

She wanted to say something but stopped, then raised her head and stared at Hongli with her beautiful eyes.

When she saw the undisguised joy on the other person's face, Concubine Zhao lowered her head again.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Your Majesty, among all the newly promoted sisters, Concubine Zhao is the first to be pregnant. This is a great joy."

"What the Queen said is true. Lady Zhao is indeed a blessed woman."

Noble Lady Zhao stood up and knelt. "Thanks to the Empress' care and blessing, I have been able to receive this blessing. I should thank the Empress very much."

Qingying just smiled and said nothing.

Hongli added, "I am also delighted by this great event. Li Yu, please convey my decree that Consort Zhao be promoted to Consort Zhao. All matters concerning the enthronement will be handled by the Ministry of Rites. Is this a good idea, Empress?"

A strange look flashed across his eyes.

Qingying smiled and nodded, "Your Majesty is right. Not everyone has such a blessing. Having a child and being promoted to a concubine is natural and good."

"Yes, I thank the Emperor and the Empress."

Now that he has changed his tune, it is really foolproof.
