Chapter 70 World 2: The Cold Emperor and the Spoiled Concubine (17)
Time passed quickly, at least that's how it seemed in Zhao Xueqi's eyes. Before she could figure out how to implement the plan, the deadline had already arrived.
Little Ye Zi followed Master Li Lin to Zhaohua Palace to announce the decree, and asked curiously, "Master, does the emperor really want it?"
Li Lin glanced at Xiao Ye. If he hadn't held the imperial edict in his hands, he would have really woken up the boy: "You can't figure out the emperor's will. If you spread it out, the emperor will have to chop off your head!"
Little Leaf begged for mercy: "I was wrong, I was wrong, thank you for your advice, godfather."
However, before Li Lin's decree was issued, Zhao Xueqi hurried to Qianling Palace with her maid, and just missed Li Lin who was delivering the decree.
Zhao Xueqi and Xiao Cui stood in front of the gate of Qianling Palace. They took off their hairpins and put on their hairpins, and wore plain clothes. They looked quite pitiful.
Zhao Xueqi pleaded loudly outside the palace: "Your Majesty, I am leaving the palace soon. I only hope to see you here one more time to comfort my regret that I can't serve Your Majesty all the time."
Bai Lingxi was selecting the finest furs for the little prince in her arms. Somehow, the closer she got to giving birth, the more she wanted to pile all kinds of furs together. She had already selected ten of the finest furs, each of which was snow-white, making people love them. At this moment, she heard shouting coming from outside the door.
Bai Lingxi: "Li Shuang? What's going on outside?"
After a while, Bai Lingxi didn't hear any more sound, but she still cast a curious look at Li Shuang who hurried over and asked, "Who is outside?"
Li Shuang lowered her head, not daring to look at Bai Lingxi's exceptionally beautiful face: "Your Majesty, don't panic. It's just an ignorant little maid. She has been dragged away."
Bai Lingxi nodded, without saying whether she believed it or not, and continued to pick out the fur for her baby. She didn't want the ones with mixed colors, short fur, or rough fur.
But for some reason, she could always smell a strange fragrance. Bai Lingxi's sense of smell was more sensitive than that of an average person: "Li Shuang, do you smell anything?"
Li Shuang shook her head: "Your Majesty, I didn't smell anything."
Bai Lingxi didn't think much about it at first, but after a while, she felt an unusual pain in her abdomen. She suspected that she was about to give birth, but her inner anxiety was growing.
Bai Lingxi: "Call the midwife!"
Bai Lingxi: "I'm about to give birth!"
Li Shuang hurriedly shouted: "Someone come, someone come, the queen is about to give birth!"
Li Lu, who was at the door, was also panicked when she heard the noise, but she quickly calmed down and directed the midwife to go in in an orderly manner. Order gradually stabilized and the scene was no longer chaotic.
When Zhao Xueqi saw this scene outside the palace gate, her eyes flashed, and then a barely perceptible smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. She stopped struggling and was escorted back to the palace by the secret guards.
After Zhou Changling left the court, someone came to report that Concubine Rong had given birth. Upon hearing this, Zhou Changling hurried to the Qianling Palace. The ministers behind him looked at the emperor's hurried back, all confused and looked at each other, not knowing what had happened.
Zhou Changling sat on the dragon chariot. It was not that he did not want to run, but his legs were so weak that he was about to fall after taking two steps. He was extremely panicked. What was going on?
Zhou Changling ordered the servants carrying the sedan chair: "Hurry up, run for me, don't be afraid of the bumps, just run fast, otherwise I will chop off your heads."
Hearing Zhou Changling's urging, the sedan bearers all ran as fast as they could and finally arrived in the fastest time.
