Chapter 315 Entering the Palace to See Emperor Jing
When the sedan chair arrived at the imperial study, Emperor Jing, who usually worked there, was not there for the first time.
After asking Eunuch Fu's godson, Su Tang found out where Emperor Jing was.
"Is this not being controlled by something?" Su Tang muttered.
Emperor Jing was actually in Empress Xie's Fengyi Palace.
Su Tang cursed secretly and took Chunmei and the others to Fengyi Palace.
At this moment, the eunuchs from the inner palace had already carried the princess' sedan chair over, and the eunuchs at the gate of the palace were replaced and went back.
"Let's go to Fengyi Palace."
When she arrived outside Fengyi Palace, Su Tang saw several women wearing the attire of a noble lady standing outside Fengyi Palace.
Although the weather is still warm today, most of the women who were able to receive the imperial decree are quite old.
The women in the inner house usually live a life of luxury, how could they endure such suffering? Su Tang felt a little shaky when she saw several people standing there.
Hearing someone coming, the people outside Fengyi Palace all looked sideways at Su Tang.
Su Tang took a look and found that they were all familiar people.
Among them was the wife of the Minister of Revenue.
"Greetings to the Grand Princess." Everyone bowed to Su Tang.
"No need to be so polite. What are you doing?" Su Tang raised her hand, signaling that everyone didn't need to greet her. It was obvious that these people could just bend their legs slightly and kneel down.
"Your servants and others are waiting to go in and take care of the patient." Someone replied.
"Do we have to wait in line?" Su Tang asked in surprise.
"No, it's His Majesty who is inside, so we came out to wait for him."
"Oh, that's perfect. I have something to ask my father, so I'll go in first." Su Tang nodded to several ladies with royal titles, and then went towards Fengyi Palace.
Outside the main hall of Fengyi Palace, the waiting maid saluted to Su Tang and said, "This servant greets the Grand Princess."
"Well, I heard that my father is in there. I have something important to tell him." Su Tang said to the palace maid.
Seeing that Su Tang didn't want to enter the main hall, the palace maid bowed and saluted to Su Tang, then entered the main hall after responding.
After a while, the person who came out of the main hall was replaced by Eunuch Fu, "This old servant greets the Grand Princess. Your Majesty, please come in and talk."
Su Tang hadn't seen Eunuch Fu for a long time. When she saw him that day, she was surprised that Eunuch Fu's originally fat face had become much thinner.
"Eunuch Fu, why have you lost so much weight? Have you asked the imperial physician to see you?"
"Alas, I was too fat before, so it's a good time to lose weight now." Eunuch Fu replied with an awkward smile.
After hearing this, Su Tang just smiled and didn't ask any more questions.
As Eunuch Fu entered the main hall of Fengyi Palace, Su Tang saw Empress Xie sitting in the main hall and Emperor Jing lying on the couch.
Emperor Jing was also obviously much thinner than the last time Su Tang saw him.
Even though the light in the hall was not very bright, Su Tang could see that Emperor Jing was not in good spirits.
"Father, Emperor, Mother."
"Well, Tang'er is here." Emperor Jing raised his hand, and immediately a eunuch brought a chair over for Su Tang.
Su Tang sat down.
"It seems like it's been more than a month since I last saw you. Where did you go this time?" Emperor Jing stood up slightly, and Eunuch Fu added a cushion behind him.
"I just went for a walk around a few suburbs near Kyoto." Su Tang did not say that she had been to Southern Xinjiang. Only a few close servants around Qi Lingheng knew about this.
"Oh? I heard that you returned to the capital with the King of Qi?" Emperor Jing asked as he took a sip of the tea handed to him by Queen Xie.
"Well, we met on the way and came back together." Su Tang replied while looking at Queen Xie.
Judging from Empress Xie's complexion, she was obviously lacking in energy and blood, and did not look like she was pregnant.
When a queen of a country becomes pregnant, the Imperial Medical Bureau must come to take care of her body, after all, she is pregnant with the heir to the throne.
Seeing Su Tang looking at her, Empress Xie touched her belly and said with a smile, "I heard that the eldest princess is also pregnant. What a coincidence. I wonder how many months the eldest princess is pregnant. Doctor Wang is in the side hall next to you. Do you want to ask him to come and take a look at you?"
"No need, I'm still early in the month. But what does the Queen mean by coincidence?" Su Tang asked with an expression of confusion.
"Your mother is also pregnant, and it has been a month." Emperor Jing said on behalf of Queen Xie.
"Yes, Doctor Wang said that the first three months are the most critical time, so I asked him to live in the side hall. You also know that I suffered a lot before, and I need to take good care of myself for this pregnancy." Queen Xie leaned over and whispered in Emperor Jing's ear.
Emperor Jing took Empress Xie's hand and patted it, "Thank you for your hard work recently, Empress."
Su sugar......
She is already middle-aged and her son is older than her, but she still acts like a spoiled child. The fact that Empress Xie can become the empress shows that she is indeed thicker-skinned than ordinary people.
This is in front of her, a junior.
Su Tang coughed lightly, looked at Emperor Jing and said, "Father, Tang'er came here today to talk to you about something serious."
"Oh? What's the matter, Tang'er?" Emperor Jing held Empress Xie's hand and stroked it, looking at Su Tang with a somewhat cloudy look.
"This...it's a little inconvenient to talk about here." Su Tang saw that Emperor Jing had no intention of getting up, and didn't want to send everyone in the room away.
"It's about some things in southern Xinjiang." Su Tang said seriously.
"Oh? Nanjiang..." When Emperor Jing heard Nanjiang's name, he finally became serious. He thought for a moment, raised his hand and motioned for Eunuch Fu to help him stand up, "Then let's go back to the imperial study and talk."
"Okay." Su Tang also stood up.
"Your Majesty." Queen Xie looked a little unhappy, but when she met Emperor Jing's gaze, her expression changed to a pitiful one.
It seemed as if she had been abandoned by Emperor Jing.
However, Emperor Jing seemed to be somewhat clear-headed. After all, this was a matter of state. He waved his hand at Empress Xie and said, "I'll come over after I finish dealing with this."
"Then you must come back soon." Queen Xie said again.
Emperor Jing paused after hearing what Empress Xie said, and then replied, "Yes, it will be quick."
Su Tang raised her eyebrows as she watched the interaction between the two.
When did Emperor Jing start to grant Empress Xie’s every request?
Eunuch Fu helped Emperor Jing out of the main hall of Fengyi Palace, and Su Tang followed behind.
Walking out of the hall, Su Tang took a deep breath and suddenly felt that all the turbid air in her chest was expelled.
When she first entered Fengyi Palace, she felt that the hall was a bit stuffy. She thought it was because there were no windows for ventilation.
Now her mind suddenly became much clearer, and she realized that it must be the smoke in the hall that made her head swollen.
Su Tang subconsciously looked at Emperor Jing.
In the bright sunlight, Su Tang discovered that Emperor Jing was much thinner than he had looked inside the house just now, and his face was darker.
Su Tang was shocked when she saw Emperor Jing like this.
I'm afraid Emperor Jing was drugged.
