677 Black Eggs Torturing the Empress (2)

The Emperor dusted his sleeves and stood up. He was quite satisfied with Consort Yun’s performance tonight. This was what a concubine should be like. What was with her being crazy all day?

It seemed that bringing the children to the palace was the right thing to do.

Since Consort Yun had turned over a new leaf, he said, “The children are asleep. I…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Consort Yun raised her leg and kicked him out! The children were asleep and the show was over. If she didn’t chase such a stinky man away, would she keep him for the New Year?

The Emperor, whose impression of Consort Yun had finally changed, was so angry that he saw stars. He got up and suddenly looked at Consort Yun on the bed.

“Hu ~ Hu ~” Consort Yun hugged a small black egg and closed her eyes to snore.

The Emperor, who had nowhere to vent his anger: “…”

The Emperor looked at Consort Yun coldly for a long time. Consort Yun would snore for as long as he looked at her. In terms of acting skills, she was serious!

The Emperor seemed to feel the interrogation from his soul. He clenched his fists and took a few deep breaths to suppress his anger. In the end, he held his butt that was in pain from Consort Yun’s kick and limped back to the bedchamber.

“Your Majesty, His Majesty has returned.”

In the central palace, the Empress supported her head with one hand and leaned against the table with her eyes narrowed. When she heard the eunuch’s report, she suddenly opened her eyes and said in a hoarse voice, “His Majesty is back?”

“Yes, Your Majesty,” the attendant said.

“He didn’t come to the Central Palace?” The Empress asked in surprise. They had been husband and wife for many years. Although the two of them had their own bedchambers, the Emperor would come to her most of the time.

The eunuch hurriedly said, “I guess it’s too late. His Majesty is afraid of disturbing your rest.”

This was not the first time. In the past, the Emperor would not come to the Central Palace when he was busy with government affairs until midnight. However, unlike tonight, the Emperor would send someone to inform her in advance and let her rest without waiting for him.

Tonight, the Emperor had been pestered by the little fellows until he forgot. It was not easy for the little fellows to sleep, but Consort Yun had deliberately kicked him again. At this moment, he was still puzzled and did not care about anything else.

It was a small matter that the Emperor did not come to stay overnight, but what the Empress thought of was that he had actually stayed in the Vermilion Bird Palace for so long.

Of course, the Empress would not think that it was Consort Yun’s credit. If Consort Yun had such methods, she would have turned things around countless years ago. Why would she sit on the bench until now?

It must be those three little fellows.

When the eunuch saw that the Empress was silent, he guessed her concerns and said, “Your Highness, there’s no need to worry. The reason why His Majesty treats those little fellows well is none other than because he wants to rope in the factions behind them. Their father is from the Great Zhou Imperial Family, and their mother is the legitimate daughter of the Helian family. The three of them are also the Seventy-feet Gu Elder of the Gu Hall. The three factions are enough to shake half of Nanzhao.”

The Empress did not comment and said, “I heard that those three children are indeed likable.”

Putting everything else aside, just having triplets was too rare. Not to mention that the Emperor liked it, she was curious too. If not for her relationship with the Eldest Princess, she would have wanted to rope the little Gu Elders into Nangong Yan and Nangong Li’s camp.

The eunuch smiled and said, “No matter how likable they are, they’re not the children His Majesty cares about the most. His Majesty only has you in his heart. Your descendant is the person he dotes on the most.”

The Empress sighed. “Unfortunately, Li’er isn’t married and doesn’t have children.”

No, she had heard Li’er mention it before that he was about to have a child. However, for some reason, when she mentioned it again, he said that the child was gone. His Majesty was old and was not as cold-hearted as before. Children could touch the soft place in his heart the most. How good would it be if Li’er also had children?

The eunuch could not answer this. The people of Nanzhao got married later than the Central Plains, and the royal family was even later. The two Princesses were special, and the imperial grandsons were not so anxious.

Moreover, they could not make it in time even if they were anxious now. After being pregnant for ten months, by the time the child was born, they would have no idea what the situation in Nanzhao had become.

The eunuch advised, “Your Majesty, it’s getting late. You should rest first. It’s just a few babies. They can’t cause much trouble.”

The Empress nodded. The Emperor had been in love with her for most of his life. She did not believe that she could not compare to a few children who suddenly appeared.

The Empress rested.

Before dawn the next day, the Emperor went to morning court. The Empress ordered someone to make a large table of the Emperor’s favorite dishes and waited for him to have breakfast in the palace after court. Unexpectedly, no one came even when the food turned cold.

“Go and ask what’s going on,” the Empress instructed the eunuch.
