Shen Dingzhu covered her heart, and her pair of beautiful eyes under her long eyelashes seemed to have thought of something, and she was distracted.
Xiao Langyan noticed that she was distracted, so he gnashed his teeth even more solemnly: "Shen Dingzhu!"
He was here, what was she still thinking about?
Does it mean that when he meets other women in the future, he has to take a shower before coming to see her?
Shen Dingzhu came back to her senses, her eyes were flustered for a moment, she lowered her head slightly and suppressed this expression.
To avoid being noticed by Xiao Langyan, she stretched out her jade-white hand and scraped the black hair around her ears twice. When she raised her charming little palm-sized face, her expression had returned to its former calm and gentle expression.
"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood me." She wiped the corners of her lips with a handkerchief. Seeing Xiao Langyan's sullen expression, he stretched out his hand to help her. Shen Dingzhu thought for a while and put the catkin in his big palm. Xiao Langyan pulled him to his feet.
Shen Dingzhu called Shen Bi outside and asked her to clean the room. As she spoke, she calmly took her hand away and stood at the table next to Xiao Langyan, with her wide sleeves gathered in front of her abdomen.
Her movements were subtle and natural, and he didn't notice. Xiao Langyan frowned and said, "What did you vomit just now? Are you feeling unwell?"
Seeing him calling Xu Shou and telling him to ask the imperial doctor to come over, Shen Dingzhu said hurriedly: "It's not that I feel uncomfortable, it's just that I painted red leaves at three o'clock last night and didn't have time to have a good meal in the morning, so I feel a little uncomfortable."
Xiao Langyan sneered coldly: "If you insist on being brave, even if you tell me that you are in trouble, I can prevent Sun Qingya from entering the palace."
After he finished speaking, Shen Dingzhu didn't speak for a while. Her red lips were full and graceful, but her beautiful watery eyes with slender eyelashes were not smiling at all.
Xiao Langyan sat on the beauty couch where she had just been lying, and all he could breathe between his noses was the fragrance of agarwood on her body, which was refreshing.
His expression softened a little, and he patted his leg: "Sit here."
Shen Dingzhu hesitated for a moment, then walked over with a smile, sat on his lap, and hugged his neck as usual.
Xiao Langyan put his big palm on her slender lower back and lowered his magnetic voice: "Next time, if you feel embarrassed about my decree, you can refuse it. I will give you this permission."
Shen Dingzhu raised her long eyelashes, her watery eyes flickering at him.
"I have also thought about refusing, but if I refuse once, there will be a second time. Your Majesty, I am not confused. I know your purpose is to make the girl from the Sun family become the queen." Her voice was soft, as if Threads of web gradually wrapped around Xiao Langyan's cold heart.
His handsome face, which had been sullen just now, had softened a lot now that she was in his arms.
Xiao Langyan said in a deep voice: "No matter how good the Sun family is, it's me who praises you. If you follow me, won't I indulge you in the same way?"
Shen Dingzhu's eyes were watery and sparkling. When she smiled, her beautiful eyes were curved, making it difficult to see the true emotions behind her eyes.
"But Your Majesty, I am very curious about something. You said you would indulge me. If I said you would not be a queen for the time being, would you agree?"
Xiao Langyan raised his sword eyebrows like splashing ink, and a dark cold mist suddenly flowed out of his thin eyes.
He was silent for a moment, and emotionally he almost subconsciously agreed to Shen Dingzhu, as if as long as she really spoke, he would no longer be a concubine or queen.
However, a brief pause allowed him to regain his cool sense.
"I won't agree." His big palm gently rubbed her waist.
Xiao Langyan's eyes met hers, and his magnetic and beautiful voice sounded both ruthless and affectionate.
"I will give you anything, but the queen is the main palace. No matter who enters the palace, you must be aware of it, especially at this time."
Hearing these words, the smile on Shen Dingzhu's red lips froze for a moment, briefly making Xiao Langyan think that he had seen it wrong.
He frowned slightly and saw that the beauty still had that pretty face with a bright smile. She reached out and lightly hit Xiao Langyan on the shoulder.
"I'm just joking. The emperor knows that the most important thing to me is Chengcheng and my parents and brothers. No matter who becomes the queen in the future, I will never embarrass the emperor."
The sight of her being so well-behaved and charming, completely dependent on him, made Xiao Langyan feel a little bit indebted.
His big palm slowly moved up to clasp the back of her slender and delicate neck, and then with a slight force, he kissed her lips lovingly like a dragonfly touching water.
Her long eyelashes trembled like butterfly wings, tickling Xiao Langyan's heart. He had always liked her delicate appearance, from the inside out.
Just when he wanted to go further, Shen Dingzhu covered her lips and hurriedly got up from his knees.
"Your Majesty, I remember, I just vomited!" Her beautiful little face turned pale, and she looked a little disgusted with herself, and even more disgusted with him, which made Xiao Langyan's face darken.
He doesn't care, so what does she care about?
Shen Dingzhu said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, you should go and deal with government affairs. It just so happens that I am planning to send someone to send Miss Sun San's favorite red maple leaves to Sun Mansion."
Xiao Langyan's mood has completely cooled down. He was so hot just now, but now her words have reduced him to the smoke in his heart.
"You are very attentive to her. Since you are also optimistic about Sun Qingya becoming the queen, I will try my best to fulfill your wish." After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and left with heavy steps.
Shen Dingzhu bowed her head and sent her off respectfully. After Xiao Langyan's tall and cold figure was out of sight, she called Aunt Song and gave her instructions privately.
"Go and invite Aunt Gui to come. We were in the palace before. I remember that she knows the medical skills of pulse diagnosis, but she must do it quietly and avoid everyone, especially Yuebai." Yuebai is Xiao Langyan's person, Shen Dingzhu Always known.
Aunt Song was a little surprised at first. Why did the empress want to find Aunt Gui secretly?
But after a flash of thought, she understood immediately, her eyes suddenly widened, and she looked down at Shen Dingzhu's abdomen.
Shen Dingzhudai also had a sad look on her eyebrows, waving her sleeves: "Go quickly, find a reason to invite her, and don't let anyone else know."
"Yes." Nanny Song left in a hurry.
After a while, Aunt Song and Aunt Gui came in. Yuebai was wiping the treasure rack. When she saw that Aunt Song had brought someone, she took a second look.
Aunt Song brought the person to Shen Dingzhu: "Madam, you said before that you wanted to ask Aunt Gui how to make Zhangzhou's Poria Cake so that it is authentic. It just so happened that the servant brought you here."
Aunt Gui smiled with respect: "Your Majesty is really considerate of your Majesty. She even made a special trip to learn this pastry. I can write down the recipe steps on paper so that I can master it thoroughly."
Shen Dingzhu raised his voice happily: "That's the best, Yuebai, go get a pen and paper."
Yuebai quickly put down the silk cloth: "Yes."
Seeing Yue Bai go to the side hall to get pen and ink, Shen Dingzhu hurriedly stretched out his wrist, and Aunt Gui immediately took her pulse and frowned to feel it.
Hours passed by minute by minute, and Shen Dingzhu's uneasy beautiful eyes glanced at the door from time to time.
Yuebai will be back at any time, but Nanny Gui doesn't seem to have confirmed it yet.
Nanny Song lowered her voice next to her: "Hurry up, don't let anyone see you."
At this time, Yuebai came in holding a pen and paper, and Grandma Gui had already put away her hands immediately.
"Thank you Miss Yuebai." Aunt Gui walked over and picked up a pen and paper. While writing, she told Shen Dingzhu the important points to pay attention to when making Poria Cake. Yuebai stood beside her.
Finally, Grandma Gui was about to leave. She comforted Shen Dingzhu and said, "My dear, don't worry. The Poria Cake is a test of the heat. If you want to make it really good, it will take more than a month."
When Shen Dingzhu heard this time, her heart skipped a beat. Her beautiful face seemed to lose color in an instant, and she fell into confusion.
Aunt Song took advantage of the situation and took a step forward, chatting and laughing with Aunt Gui: "You are now the chief steward of the imperial kitchen. I will ask you to give me some advice someday, so don't shirk it."
"How can I do that? I have been favored by the queen in the palace. If the queen invites me, no matter how important the matter is, I have to put it down and come here without any hesitation." Aunt Gui responded with a smile.
The two of them went back and forth and got the answers each other wanted.
Yue Bai took it as a matter of course and didn't take it to heart.
"Yuebai, give it to Auntie Gui." After Sister Song said this, Yuebai followed Aunty Gui out.
Aunt Song quickly walked back to Shen Dingzhu: "Your Majesty, you are pregnant for one and a half months. We have to tell the emperor! Why don't you let us know?"
