Harem: Luo Chen's Resentment

Luo Chen, who was standing in the middle of the screen, secretly observed Qin Muyun's every move through the decorative design. Seeing him sit down, he picked up the book he had read last night and inwardly shook his head. Did the emperor not plan on leaving? This time, Luo Chen spent twice as much time changing her clothes as usual. She tied up the embroidered hair with a ribbon and then walked out.

When Qin Muyun heard the footsteps, he raised his head and looked at Luo Chen who was walking in. It was a simple Hundred Flowers Dress, with messy embroidery hair. Despite having a child with an even more voluptuous figure, her waist was still tightly gripped, giving off a unique feeling, "Sit!" Qin Muyun pointed to a seat beside him, allowing Luo Chen to sit with him.

Luo Chen bowed elegantly towards Qin Muyun, then walked past him and sat on the couch by the window. She pushed the window open and felt the summer breeze.

Qin Muyun's hand that was knocking on the table suddenly stopped, as he squinted his eyes and looked at Luo Chen who was enjoying the scenery. However, he immediately put on a carefree smile and followed behind them. This time, he did not sit next to Luo Chen. Instead, he sat opposite to Luo Chen, and picked up the white enamel cup in front of him to pour Luo Chen a cup of tea.

"You haven't tasted my cooking skills, so I have a chance today," Qin Muyun said as he held onto his cup, as if he would not put it down unless he accepted it.

Luo Chen naturally would not let the current emperor lose face, even though she really had such a thought in her heart, she extended her delicate hand and received the cup. She lightly took a sip. "The emperor's culinary skills are naturally excellent. Chenqie is fortunate."

Qin Muyun kept a close eye on Luo Chen's every reaction, looking at her relaxed eyebrows, he knew that the tea was to her liking. The smile on his face widened. "I can cook for you if you like."

Luo Chen casually looked at Qin Muyun, but if one looked closely, they would find that her eyes had widened. According to her understanding of the man before her, if he liked a girl, then he could take her up to heaven. However, he was an emperor who treated his husband as his master. She wouldn't personally do the things that normal couples did, not to mention making tea for his wife. Luo Chen sneered, she was not his wife, but one of the many women. It was likely that he had other motives this time, Luo Chen's vigilance increased by a lot.

"Then chenqie will thank Your Majesty," Luo Chen replied with a smile.

Qin Muyun accompanied Luo Chen to eat, then said that he still had matters to attend to and left.

Xiafu Palace

"Si Qin, accompany me to the Fenghua Hall," Li Yuan wore a light green jacket and took off all the accessories on her head. The usually aloof and aloof temperament was concealed, making the little family appear a bit more jade-like. After all, she was going to show her weakness today!

stopped a few meters away from the Fenghua Hall and took the dessert box from his hands. Wiping his face with a wet handkerchief, he gave Si Qin a look before continuing onward.

"Empress, beacon has arrived, and seems to be holding something in his hands," Qing Er reported to the imperial concubine Yao, who was tidying up her little clothes, as she ran in from outside.

"Let her in!" imperial concubine Yao raised her head from her pile of clothes and ordered with a faint smile. Last night, the emperor had just rested in the Middle Palace, she guessed that someone was getting anxious, she didn't expect that they would arrive so quickly. After all, it wasn't the first time Li Yuan had flaunted her favors in front of the empress!

Li Yuan stood respectfully at the door, waiting for imperial concubine Yao's order. Seeing Qing Er coming out, she immediately looked at him with anticipation.

Qing Er nodded and invited Li Yuan in.

"Esteemed Empress, this servant was wrong," Li Yuan said as she walked into the hall and placed the box of snacks on the ground.

imperial concubine Yao looked coldly at the woman kneeling on the ground. Her clothes were rather tacky, as though she was begging for forgiveness. Most importantly, her saying 'servant girl' had made him feel good inside.

"Aiyo, Empress Zhao Yi, what's going on? "Hurry up and get up, I can't stand a present like you. For such a delicate person, the emperor's heart hurts so much." imperial concubine Yao's voice was filled with pity, but her eyes could not hide the sneer in them, and she did not let anyone help Li Yuan up. imperial concubine Yao rubbed her belly that was already five months old, her heart filled with pride. The only person who could give birth to two children for the Emperor was her. "The child in my womb, on the other hand, is able to receive such a great gift from you. It would also be alright if you only wait for the arrival of the young prince before giving me this great gift." imperial concubine Yao was so relieved that she told the gender of the child in her womb. She thought that it must be a prince.

Hearing imperial concubine Yao's words, Li Yuan's finger that was pressed on the ground could not help but tremble, the veins on her palm suddenly bulged, it really was her who did this. gave a strange smile with her head lowered. Whether she could be born was still a question, and even pretended to be a coward who had just received a lesson, submissively saying: "Yes, Empress is right. Only the little prince in the Empress's womb deserves the most honorable respects."

"Haha," imperial concubine Yao laughed unbridled. She knew that this dog, Li Yuan, would not be able to survive after leaving her. Furthermore, other than that position, what else did Li Yuan have to say for herself? Qing Er understood imperial concubine Yao's intentions, and only after kneeling for a moment did she manage to pick her up.

"Empress, are these clothes prepared for the little prince?" Li Yuan limped over to imperial concubine Yao's side and asked while smiling while enduring the discomfort. Li Xiaowan was vicious as expected. Letting her kneel on the cold stone floor for so long, was she trying to cripple her legs?

imperial concubine Yao was smiling as she touched her clothes. These were all prepared by her father, so her child should have everything, including her position.

"Yes, this is something I prepared. Qing Er, tidy up your clothes, don't let anything unclean touch it." imperial concubine Yao instructed.

Li Yuan retracted her hand that was about to touch her clothes and laughed awkwardly as she helped imperial concubine Yao to sit down.

"Empress, this is a dessert that I made personally for you. Please try it," Li Yuan picked up the dessert that was placed on the ground and personally placed it on the table, waiting for imperial concubine Yao to taste it.

"Empress Zhao Yi, I'm sorry, but the imperial physician told me not to eat any snacks right now," Qing Er said to stop her.

Li Yuan nodded her head in embarrassment, and said full of it: "I was careless." She quietly sat below the imperial concubine Yao, and told him everything that had happened in the palace.

It was unknown what Li Yuan was thinking about, but her face suddenly changed, causing imperial concubine Yao's heart to tighten as she asked what happened.

"Esteemed Empress, Cui Xue's father has also gone to the northern expedition this time, and I heard that she is not a small general. Look, did you go to the emperor to plead with him? " Li Yuan said in distress.

"Didn't you say that Cui Xue personally pushed you into the lake and almost drowned you to death?" imperial concubine Yao said in disdain. She clearly wanted that person to die, yet she pretended to be a good person and wanted her to take the lead!
