Chapter 1300: The Emperor Is Pregnant 14
"Hmm"
Someone lazily responded, while lying on the Imperial Concubine Chair with closed eyes.
Ning Zhi was delighted and lifted her skirt as she ascended the steps.
As soon as she went up, Situ Xiu opened his eyes.
With droopy eyelids, he sat up, still lazy.
"What is it?"
Ning Zhi handed over a booklet.
Speaking in a lowered voice
"Prince, the Empress seems different from usual lately."
Situ Xiu said nothing, indicating for her to continue speaking.
This made Ning Zhi’s eyes flash with a hint of joy.
She stepped closer to Situ Xiu and spoke
"After the Empress attended court, she has been staying in her bedchamber without summoning anyone.
The Empress seems to be ill."
Situ Xiu’s eyelids twitched.
Seemed he heard other movements.
He opened his eyes and turned his head.
He saw Guard Song carrying some walnuts heading this way.
Situ Xiu spoke slowly
"Dare you discuss Royal family matters? Who gave you the courage?"
Ning Zhi was so frightened that she immediately knelt down.
"Prince, quell your anger, this foolish girl was ignorant, I will never dare again!"
Along with Ning Zhi, her maid also knelt down, frantically kowtowing.
When Su Yan walked into the pavilion carrying walnuts, she saw this scene.
She did not enter the pavilion; instead, she stood outside, holding walnuts in one hand, cracking them loudly.
From a distance, she watched, just watching the woman kneel before the bed, Situ Xiu looking at the woman, their conversation unknown.
Seeming somewhat intimate.
Xiao Hua couldn’t help but ask
"Host, you’ve crushed all the walnuts in your hand."
Su Yan looked down at the walnuts shattered into bits.
She tossed them away.
Took two more, inhaled deeply.
Finally controlled her strength.
Xiao Hua’s voice was soft and childlike
"When is the Host planning to storm into the palace?"
"Tomorrow."
Hearing Su Yan’s words, Xiao Hua was slightly surprised
"Huh?"
It thought the Host would say wait a bit longer.
Who knew she would suddenly decide.
So urgent, so abrupt.
It asked again
"Host, do you have a plan?"
"Yes"
Xiao Hua heard Su Yan had a plan and was relieved.
Su Yan raised her head, blinking.
Seeing the two maintaining their posture.
With a crack, the walnut shattered again.
She looked down, playing with the crushed walnuts in her hand.
When she becomes Empress, she will exile this Ning Zhi far away.
Situ Xiu waited awhile, realized his guard was standing under the pavilion seemingly in a daze.
His voice chilled
"What are you doing there? Come over here!"
Su Yan looked up and met his dark eyes.
She walked into the pavilion, holding the walnuts.
The maid who had been kneeling on the ground showed anger as soon as she saw Su Yan
"It’s you!"
Once spoken, the maid realized her blunder and quickly silenced herself.
Su Yan remained silent, her focus always on Ning Zhi.
She watched Ning Zhi with tears in her eyes, almost falling, tears swirling in her eyes.
The woman’s bright eyes, delicate skin, pale and rosy dress petals spread like flowers on the ground.
Kneeling on the ground, frail, the delicate waist seemingly waiting to be tenderly held.
Instantly invoking a protective urge.
Su Yan stared at her.
Then silently at her own hand.
The woman was frail, invoking pity.
She could crush her with a single finger.
Then looking at Situ Xiu, lazily reclining on the Imperial Concubine Chair.
Could it be that he likes this sort of appearance?
With this thought, she placed the walnut basin on the stone table.
