Long Live the Empress

Chapter 243: Peaceful Thanks

Jinyuyuan

Zhenzhu didn't want to ask Yue Jinghao herself, so she said something to the gatekeeper at the door and left.

"Miss, Nanny Qin expressed her gratitude on your behalf yesterday. Why did she let you go?" Agate asked in confusion.

"People in the royal family value etiquette, and it is possible that someone deliberately brought it up in front of the prince today. Well, I'll go and take a look!" Yue Jinghao did not change her clothes, but only put on a light lilac brocade cloak on the outside.

"Miss, I heard that the back garden is very lively today. Everyone is here to see the old lady and the second young lady! It's strange that everyone who comes brings their daughters with them." As Manjushri said this, she stuffed the hot water bottle into Yue Jinghao's hand.

Yue Jing understood with a kind heart and thought: Could it be that Yue Jinghong asked her to go to the backyard to meet the prince just to show off in front of her?

The imperial physician examined Yue Jinghong's pulse, and the prince reported: "Miss Yue is having a miscarriage. I will prescribe a medicine that will work in just one use!"

The imperial physicians have been immersed in the harem for a long time, and they have come up with endless tricks to use the fetus to win favor. These imperial physicians also keep their mouths shut, just go through the motions and prescribe a pregnancy-stabilizing medicine.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this. If the imperial physician had said that Yue Jinghong had abdominal pain due to overwork, they would be guilty of a serious crime.

"What happened to my second sister?"

A cold voice rang out in the garden. Everyone looked towards its source and saw Yue Jinghao standing quietly under a blooming red plum tree. Although her face was not made up, she still made everything in the garden lose its color.

"My sister is fine, don't worry, big sister~" Yue Jinghong's voice was very weak, but she seemed to be extremely scared of Yue Jinghao. She used all her strength to get up from the prince's arms.

The prince was staring at Yue Jinghao in a daze, and Yue Jinghong's struggle brought him back to his senses.

Normally, Yue Jinghong was unwell, and she was a concubine bestowed by the emperor, so the prince should have taken care of her. However, the prince pushed Yue Jinghong into Gu Ziwei's arms, and said with an unnatural look: "Jing... Princess Jing'an, don't worry. Jinghong... Miss Yue is just a little tired..."

Yue Jinghong was stunned by the prince's actions. Just now the prince was caring and concerned about her, but when the bitch Yue Jinghao came, the prince even refused to call her name?

Yue Jinghao nodded slightly, bowed to the prince and said, "Your Highness, I greet you. Thank you for your reward."

"If you like, I will give you all the good things I get in the future!" The prince had long been obsessed with Yue Jinghao's beauty, and his words came out of his mind. After saying that, he felt that his words were a bit inappropriate, so he explained: "What I mean is... is..."

The prince didn't know how to smooth things over for a moment, so he looked anxiously at the old eunuch, who understood what he meant and said, "Come here, please ask Princess Jing'an to sit down!"

Yue Jinghao did not intend to stay here for long, so she bowed and said, "Thank you, eunuch, but I have caught a cold and cannot stay outside for long. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"

When the prince heard that Yue Jing was ill, he said nervously, "Are you ill? Is it serious? Have you taken medicine? The imperial physician is here, can he treat you?"

The prince's nervousness shocked everyone present. Just now, Yue Jinghong had a miscarriage and the prince didn't show such concern. Now Yue Jinghao just caught a cold, but the prince wanted to check Yue Jinghao's pulse himself. This was really... weird...

Yue Jinghao's smile was distant and cold. "Thank you, Your Highness. I have been drinking the medicine for a few days. If I suddenly change it, it may backfire!"

"Yes, yes, the Princess of Jing'an is right!" The prince had seen big scenes since he was a child, but for some reason he was always at a loss in front of Yue Jinghao. "Someone, bring the things up!"

The prince's personal guard knelt on the ground holding a carved box in his hands.

"This was hunted by me personally. I have never known what to make of it, so I will give it to Princess Jing'an today!" The prince opened the lid of the box with his own hands, and inside was a snow-white fox fur.

The two guards slowly unfolded the leather, and everyone gasped.

What a big piece of fox fur!

Not to mention the thick fur and shiny color of the fur, a fox this big is hard to find in the world! Prince, can you just give it to Yue Jing?
