The Princess Of 100 Talents
Chapter #120

The life of a pregnant woman felt by Empress An is enough to make Prince Rong and some people confused. Because some of the food that Empress An wanted was never made, and as a result Empress An herself had to make it, and there was always a small dispute between prince Rong and empress An.

But even so, prince Rong always relented, because the queen and mistress Xiao always advised prince Rong to be more patient with Empress An.

"Your majesty, is it okay if I just style your hair like this?" Said Feng Ying who saw her hairstyle.

"It's okay, my head will hurt if I wear too many hairpins. After all they will also definitely understand, since I am pregnant right now."

Feng Ying simply nodded.

Today was the day the emperor threw a feast for the happiness of the kingdom, as Empress An was pregnant.

"Sir, are you ready?" Said prince Rong who walked over from the side room.

"Yes." Yeah."

"You look beautiful wearing that."

"really? But I just styled my hair like this."

"It's okay, you're pregnant right now. The father of the emperor and the queen mother will take it."

"Well, if it's like that."

Prince Rong helped Empress An stand up, then they walked towards the royal palace where people had been waiting for them inside the palace hall.

While Feng Ying and Aunt Hong were requested to come to the palace by Empress An, following them behind.

"Be careful with every step." Prince Rong said to Empress An.

"Okay, I understand."

"I should have asked some of the palace guards to take you on a stretcher."

"Your Majesty, it's not necessary. I can still walk to the royal palace."

"But I'm so worried about you."

"Right now I'm not wearing makeup that weighs on my head, so I'll be fine."

Prince Rong could only remain silent, as he did not want to argue with Empress An.

"Your highness prince Rong and his highness empress An arrived!" Said the head of the palace guard.

Everyone inside the palace hall turned their heads towards the door, and saw prince Rong as well as empress An walking into the palace hall.

One of the princesses of a kingdom looked closely at Empress An, as if she could not believe that the one who walked in with Prince Rong was Empress An.

"Is she really An's consort, the wife of prince Rong? Appearance is very ordinary, even though this is a party for him." Whisper the princess to her mother.

"You calm down, and don't make trouble here." Whisper the princess.

The princess was silent after her mother answered her.

"Greetings to the noble emperor and the noble money of the queen. May your majesty live a long and prosperous life." Said prince Rong and empress An simultaneously.

"Stand, and sit down immediately. Right now you need to take better care of your health." Said the emperor to Empress An and prince Rong.

"Thank you for your noble attention." Said empress An.

Prince Rong then took Empress An, and helped her sit in their chair.

After seeing Empress An and prince Rong sitting down, emperor Changming stood up while carrying his glass.

"Because Empress An and prince Rong have arrived, then I'm telling you that this party is about to begin." Said the emperor loudly.

"May your majesty live long." Say everyone there.

Music began to sound, and several dancers walked into the palace hall to entertain all the guests.

"Sir, do you want to eat wine?" Prince Rong.

"Then what do you want to eat?"

"Can I eat the almonds I made yesterday?"

"You want to eat it, didn't you just get ready, did you eat it?"

Empress An nodded, "Yes, but I want to eat it again."

"Wouldn't anything happen if you ate too many almonds?"

"It's okay, your honor. I've added something before I ask the chef to burn it."

"Alright, I will ask Feng Ying to take it."

"Thank you, your honor."

"But you can't eat too much, because you have to eat the others too."

"Okay, I understand."

Prince Rong nodded, then asked Feng Ying to take the almonds that were inside the room of Empress An.

"Your Majesty, today is a very happy day for you and this Chao kingdom. But I see your makeup as if it doesn't show that happiness." Said the princess whispering with her mother.

The two princess parents were shocked, as her poem's remarks definitely made prince Rong and also empress An unhappy.

The music stopped abruptly, as she saw Empress An standing up.

Empress An stood up while smiling at the princess, "I apologized to everyone before, for making you feel uncomfortable with my simple makeup at this time. As you know, if I am pregnant now, and somehow if I wear so many hairpins and makeup, it makes my head very sick. And that would make his highness prince Rong would be very worried to me. So, I asked my loyal servant, to style my hair like this. Because I don't want to make your highness prince Rong worry about me, and I don't want anything to happen to me either, and make the child who is in my stomach happen something."

The words from Empress An who was so clear and sharp made everyone nod, and looked at the princess with a dislike look.

While the princess could only remain silent, clenching both of her hands tightly.

"Please forgive my daughter, your majesty. He's too young to understand that." Said the princess' mother.

"It's okay, see how your daughter looks. He does look young, so of course he doesn't understand." Said Empress An while glancing at the princess.

"True, thank you for your noble understanding."

Empress An simply nodded then sat back down on her chair. And the music is back.

"It looks like the princess likes her majesty, so seeing me is not worthy of you." Said Empress An as she looked at prince Rong.

"I don't care about that, because all I care about is my wife who's right now in front of me."

"Don't you have a headache with those women?"

Prince Rong clasped Empress An's hand, "My empress, I never thought of them. And I don't care about them either, as long as they don't bother you."

"really? But right now my body is getting bigger, and it will definitely soon look very round."

Prince Rong smiled slightly at the words of his empress.

"I'm so happy to see you round, because that means you and our son are so healthy." Prince Rong.

"What noble does not feel ashamed?"

"I'd be ashamed to hear people say that I can't make you live happily, seeing you so thin when you're pregnant."

Empress An fell silent for a moment, then nodded in understanding.

"So from now on, if you want to eat something you can eat it. But it can't be overkill." Prince Rong said again.

"Okay, I understand your majesty."

Prince Rong smiled at Empress An's words.
