Ambitious Favored Consort: How To Become A Wangfei

Chapter 132: Promise

Sorry for the long wait, i have my quarterly exams and i've been busy studying

In Kunning Palace, Tang Shishi leaned on the couch, massaging her waist while complaining to Du Juan: "It's so hard to be pregnant in the summer."

The summer in Jinling was hot, and Tang Shishi had a big belly, which made it very uncomfortable. Seeing this, Du Juan asked: "Your Highness, should i let the people from the Palace Bureau bring some ice over?"

Tang Shishi was pregnant, so she didn't dare to use ice at all, and could only fan herself in the palace. Tang Shishi thought for a while, but still shook her head: "Forget it, using too many cold things is not good for the child, just bear it for a while." (T/N: Why are they so careful in pregnancies? Like i know that being pregnant means you need to be careful and all but they're taking it too much)

Du Juan hurriedly stepped forward to shake the fan for Tang Shishi. She slapped the fan lightly and said, "Your Highness, since you are not well, why don't you tell his majesty?"

Tang Shisgi snorted coldly and said: "What's the use of telling him? He can't bear it."

Just when Liu Ji approached, he heard this sentence. Zhao Chengjun was afraid of disturbing Tang Shishi, so he prevented the eunuch at the door from reporting. He did not expect to hear this when he came in.

Liu Ji was embarrassed, so he hurried to see Zhao Chengjun and found that the he stood there, looking indifferent. Liu Ji tentatively said: "The Empress is pregnant and her temper changes quickly, she just said those words with a grain of salt."

There was no change on Zhao Chengjun's face. Liu Ji was afraid that he would be angry, but Zhao Chengjun is used to it. Isn't it normal for him to be scolded?

Tang Shishi always finds him to vent her anger whenever she feels uncomfortable. What's all the fuss about?

The maids in Kunning Palace noticed that Zhao Chengjun was coming, and hurriedly knelt down to salute: "Greetings Your Majesty."

At this time, Tang Shishi knew that he was coming. She was stunned for a while, and then motioned Du Juan to support her and slowly stood up. Zhao Chengjun watched her movements with trepidation, and immediately said: "Don't move, sit down."

But this time, Tang Shishi did not return to her original position as before, and saluted. Zhao Chengjun sighed in his heart, stepped forward to hold Tang Shishi's arm, and forcibly prevented her from moving: "Sit down."

Tang Shishi said stiffly, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Liu Ji motioned everyone to leave with his eyes. Du Juan was reluctant, but was dragged away by the court ladies.

Tang Shishi broke away from Zhao Chengjun's hand, sat down slowly, and asked, "Your Majesty chases the servants out when you come in. What does this do?"

Zhao Chengjun didn't care that Tang Shishi shook off his hand. He was afraid that she was hurting her waist, so he still went forward to help her sit down, and then sat down beside her: "Why are you so temperamental?"

Tang Shishi laughed: "Your Majesty thinks I have a bad temper?"

Zhao Chengjun knew that if he said yes, he will never hear the end of it from Tang Shishi. He avoided it wisely and said, "Well, everything is good. I'm just afraid you will hurt your body."

Tang Shishi said, "There are so many important and urgent matters waiting for your majesty's attention. How dare i disturb you?"

Zhao Chengjun sighed secretly, he knew that the time to come would always come. Zhao Chengjun did not argue, saying: "I am wrong, I have neglected you these days. Is he good in your stomach, has he moved?"
