The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
82. Go To The Palace Again
Every fifth day of the month, the princes living outside the palace would visit the palace to pay their respects to the elders. Those who are married should also bring their wives. This was the fifth month of Lu Jing Yu and Pei Zhang Xi's wedding, but this was his first time attending this event due to his unlikely condition.
Since morning, Xiao Bei had already awakened Lu Jing Yu to prepare immediately. Lu Jing Yu's stomach had already shown its growth. A small lump was visible on Lu Jing Yu's lower abdomen. Entering the fourth month , Lu Jing Yu's stomach was already visible as well due to her body being too thin. Eating Lu Jing Yu had only recovered after entering the fourth month.
Today Xiao Bei prepared a beautiful bone-white hanfu. On the edge of the hanfu, rose embroidery was spread with beautiful colors. The small lump on his stomach also looks funny. Pei Zhang Xi repeatedly stroked that protruding belly with anxiety. If it was in their room, Pei Zhang Xi's medicine would have placed his head on Lu Jing Yu's thigh and kissed that protruding belly.
"Mother will be so happy to see her granddaughter later." Pei Zhang Xi said after helping Lu Jing Yu comfortably on the carriage.
"I sometimes think mom would eat me if I linger set by her."
"Mother is like that. He is a strange man. I thought so myself."
"After all it was Her Majesty's own mother. Why say it like that?"
"The reality." Pei Zhang Xi replied without thinking. He pulled Lu Jing Yu into his arms and played Lu Jing Yu's long hair which today was made somewhat curly on the front by Xiao Bei. Making Zhang Xi's man anxious to play tricks on him. Roll it up and let it go. Sometimes he pulls and kisses her.
"Can't say that. What does His Majesty want if after His Majesty's child is born he will also find His Majesty strange?"
"can't. My son certainly wouldn't be like that. He'll worship me as his father."
"Isa. Don't play with my hair. Tingly." Lu Jing Yu patted Pei Zhang Xi's hand which kept toying with her hair.
"Hehehe. How do you make this?"
"Where do I know. It was Xiao Bei who made it." Pei Zhang Xi's already-excited hand again tried to grab Lu Jing Yu's hair, but was patted back by her.
"Don't play my hair. If Your Majesty likes it, then I will have Xiao Bei set His Majesty's hair to be like this. Wanna?" Lu Jing Yu glared at his eyes.
"No. I just want to touch it. Come on, let me touch it."
"Your Majesty, don't you think His Majesty is strange?" Pei Zhang Xi was immediately silent after being said strangely by Lu Jing Yu. He also felt that he was strange. Otherwise, he couldn't possibly play hair like that.
Lu Jing Yu smiled with satisfaction. As the pair exited the carriage, two faces that looked opposite to each other were clearly seen by everyone. Lu Jing Yu with a triumphant smile on his face. While Pei Zhang Xi who is like a child who is not bought sweets by his mother. Seeing the contrasting difference between the two, one could not help but think what was going on.
"King Rui, sister-in-law. You guys just arrived?" A woman with a little girl in her hand and a handsome young man who had the same lip shape as Pei Zhang Xi approached them. They also just got off the train.
"King Wei, brother-in-law." Pei Zhang Xi and Lu Jing Yu smiled as soon as they saw the two. The third prince, Pei Wu Shan had no ambition to fight for the throne. His relaxed attitude and low profile made him not be the target of the eyes of the princes who fought each other.
They had a family close enough to that of the other princes. Except for the Pei Zhong Min family who were notoriously arrogant and had sharp tongues.
"That's great. We can go together. Let's." Let's." Yun Ying was very pleased. He immediately pulled his little daughter to walk along with Lu Jing Yu and left Pei Wu Shan.
"Sister-in-law. Your stomach is starting to show. Isn't it still three in four months huh? Is this maybe twins?" Yun Ying without asking for permission directly touched Lu Jing Yu's protruding belly and stroked her quietly. Now Lu Jing Yu was used to being caressed in the stomach by Pei Zhang Xi and he was also prepared to be touched by someone else in this palace. So he did not have the uncomfortable feeling like before.
"No brother. At first I thought so too. Your Majesty too. But after being examined by Physician Xue it turned out that it was not. It's a single pregnancy. While why my stomach looks bigger it's because my body is too thin." Said Lu Jing Yu with a smile.
"Oh like that. I thought it was twins. It would be funny if there were twins in this family later."
"Why aren't baby sisters just twins?"
"No. I was too scared to give birth again. My daughter has also just stabilized. I still want to take good care of my daughter." His daughter was born weak. And only after several years of struggle did his condition recover like other children.
"That's king Yuan and his queen." Yun Ying pointed at the place in front of them. The Emperor's page. Every prince who came would visit the Emperor first, only then the Queen, the Queen Mother and the retired Emperor. Only then could they meet their mother.
"really. That is them. They just came out of Huan Long's pavilion." Lu Jing Yu nodded.
"They look very happy. Look at their big smiles." Hearing Yun Ying's remark, Lu Jing Yu reflexively glanced at Pei Zhang Xi who was clasping her hands. After all Lu Jing Yu still had some worry in her heart if it came to Zhu Man Xie. He is afraid that he will one day recall his past love story and will kill him one day. Pei Zhang Xi who felt Lu Jing Yu's gaze fixed on him also glanced at him.
"Sister-in-law does have good eyesight. But it seems like sister-in-law forgot something."
"What's that?"
"The happiest couple here is me. Look at my wife's pregnant." Everybody stopped her. They had not expected to hear that answer from Pei Zhang Xi.
