Chapter 343: Ending Like This (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
It had to be said that Consort Zhao was lucky. Consort Zhao saw the Emperor��s baldness and was so frightened that she lost her manners in front of the Emperor. Logically speaking, she could forget about seeing the Emperor again in her life, but in a few days, she was diagnosed to be pregnant.
Of course, the Empress did not know that Consort Zhao had almost lost her favor. She was still lamenting that Consort Zhao had really made her proud.
To be able to make a woman pregnant at such an age, the Emperor immediately felt that he was still young. He could not help but be overjoyed. He rewarded Consort Zhao and the Empress. He praised Consort Zhao for her contribution to pregnancy and also praised the Empress for her virtue.
The Empress won��t say these words, so Emissary Cui made a vivid statement. After hearing the last sentence, Worthy Consort Xu��s face turned green.
What a good sentence. It was as if she had secretly done something to the harem in the past few years!
Why didn��t His Majesty think about it? If she really wanted to do something, would there be any princes or princesses after Jing��er?!
Of course, before Yan Huaijing was born, she had done things to the bloodline, but that was all in the past. How could the Emperor push all the blame to her? Was it so difficult to admit that he was old and could not let the concubines get pregnant again?
Worthy Consort Xu also knew that she was talking in a fit of anger. She could not say it out loud, or she would get herself killed.
She sighed inwardly that the Empress��s methods had really become more and more brilliant. Just now, she had almost forced her to say what she was thinking. Fortunately, she had stopped herself in time.
When the Empress saw that Worthy Consort Xu had actually calmed down at the critical moment, she sneered and held Emissary Cui��s wrist as she walked towards the ornamental garden in a dignified manner.
Throughout the entire process, Yu Wan did not say anything. She only silently held the Ninth Princess��s hand and at the same time, paid attention to the three little fat fellows who were looking around curiously. She had heard the confrontation between the Empress and Worthy Consort Xu, but this was not the time for her to interrupt.
Han Jingshu, who was walking side by side with her, also obediently remained silent. In the end, this woman chose to forgive Yan Huaijing. Yu Wan really hoped that Yan Huaijing could see the good in Han Jingshu and give up on her.
In the depths of the forest, the Emperor had hunted the first preya���an adult buck. Everyone clapped and cheered. The Emperor was also very happy. He ordered the guards to take the buck down and stew it so that dinner could be used to entertain everyone.
Since the Emperor had succeeded, their hunt could officially begin. Without Yan Huaijing around, the Third Prince became the most eye-catching heir. After a while, he also hunted a buck, but it was a whole circle smaller than the Emperor��s.
The ministers praised him in relief. The Emperor was quite pleased and re-examined this third son who was always shrouded in Yan Huaijing��s halo. Although his third son was not as knowledgeable as his second son, he was still a very outstanding child. He had neglected him for so many years.
��Has Old Third��s family entered the palace today?�� The Emperor asked Eunuch Wang.
Eunuch Wang said, ��The Third Princess Consort��s mother isn��t feeling well. She went to visit.��
The truth was that the concubine in the Third Prince��s backyard had a miscarriage. The Third Prince suspected that his wife had done it. The Third Princess Consort was wronged and ran back to her maternal family after a big argument with him. Her maternal family was afraid that it would be unpleasant to hear, so they claimed that the Third Princess Consort��s mother had contracted an illness.
Eunuch Wang did not say this because this was definitely not what the Emperor wanted to hear.
The Emperor said, ��Send two ginseng to Mrs. Xu.��
The Third Princess Consort��s surname was Xu.
��Yes.�� Eunuch Wang agreed and immediately called for a capable eunuch to go to the storeroom to choose ginseng.
The Third Prince��s archery was like a god. After the buck, he hunted a wild sheep, a vulture, and three wild rabbits. It could be said that his harvest was quite abundant. The Fourth Prince was inferior to him, but he also hunted a pangolin. Only the Eldest Prince and Prince Cheng were empty-handed.
The two of them rode their horses and bumped into each other.
The Eldest Prince had dark circles, and so did Prince Cheng.
Prince Cheng was frightened by the bruised and swollen Princess Consort and had nightmares for a few nights.The Eldest Prince did not sleep well for some reason.
Prince Cheng was about to greet his brother when he suddenly discovered a fat rabbit hidden behind the grass. It was a gray rabbit, and its color was inconspicuous. He only realized it when he walked so close.
Soon, the Eldest Prince also discovered it.
The two of them looked at the rabbit and then at each other.
Prince Cheng whispered, ��Why don��t you do it, Brother?��
The Eldest Prince said, ��Fifth Brother discovered it first. It should be yours.��
Prince Cheng said, ��No, no, no. It��s yours.��
The two of them pushed each other. In the end, the Eldest Prince could not take it anymore. He glared angrily and said, ��Don��t you know that I can��t hit it! Do you have to watch me embarrass myself!��
