Empress Xiande was so dignified that one couldn't see anything wrong with her, but the more calm she was, the more uncomfortable it made people feel. Shen Miao saw that a large piece of Empress Xian De's skirt was wet and thought that she must have been at the pond with Consort Jing. When Consort Jing fell into the water, Empress Xian De's clothes were also wet. However, probably because he had been worried about Lu Jing, he didn't bother to change into a clean set of clothes.
She nodded and said, "Alright."
Emperor Yong Le stared at Empress Xian De and didn't speak. In the room, Jing Fei's calls became more and more delicate. Empress Xian De said, "Your Majesty should go in early to see. The one who is tired is not Jing Fei, but the child in Jing Fei's stomach." Finishing, she didn't care what expression Emperor Yong Le had and pulled Shen Miao away.
As soon as they left the Jinghua Palace, the air outside seemed to be much fresher. Long Ye's bitter summer was about to end. Not long after, the weather would gradually turn cold and it would be the beginning of autumn. Nowadays, the better the flowers bloomed in the summer, the more desolate the withering ones would be in the future.
Shen Miao lowered her head and thought of the strange atmosphere between Emperor Yong Le and Empress Xiande just now. She felt that Empress Xiande was a bit tired today. Even when they were in Jinghua Palace, she was at odds with Emperor Yong Le. This was different to Empress Xian De's steady personality. Maybe it was because of Jing Fei's child?
That's right, Empress Xiande had no children. Ever since the first time Shen Miao entered the Palace, she discovered that Emperor Yong Le was currently in his prime but did not have any heirs. The reason why the Lu and Ye Clans had so many followers in the Imperial Court, aside from the power left behind by the previous Emperor, was that they did not have any heirs. No matter how one looked at it, an emperor without his own children would not last long.
But now Jing Fei had one? If Jing Fei gave birth to a son, would he have to be the future heir apparent? Then wouldn't the world be tied together with the Lu Family in the end. Outside relatives monopolizing power was what Emperor Yong Le didn't want to see the most. No wonder Emperor Yong Le wasn't happy at all when he heard Jing Fei was pregnant. However, Empress Xiande's unhappiness was probably not only because of the position of Empress, but also because of her jealousy as a woman.
Bystanders could see more clearly. Looking at a problem from an outsider's point of view was always the clearest. It was the same for Shen Miao. The way Empress Xian De looked at Emperor Yong Le was exactly the same as how she looked at Fu Xiu Yi. She loved her husband deeply, but in the end, another woman was pregnant with her husband's child. Even someone as calm as Xiande Empress would feel a sliver of displeasure in her heart.
She was just a woman after all.
"Qinwang fei?" Empress Xiande's voice came into her ears. Shen Miao recovered to her senses and Empress Xian De was already looking at her with a somewhat tolerant smile, "You were lost in thought and did not even hear what Bengong said."
Shen Miao quickly apologized, "One has offended Your Ladyship."
"There is no need to be like this." Empress Xian De did not put it to heart and said, "It is so late, it is natural for people to be distracted due to tiredness. Qinwang Fei does not have to blame yourself."
As Shen Miao walked, she could not help but ask, "Your Ladyship, this official's wife wants to ask you something?"
"Excuse me."
"Did you really push Consort Jing into the water?"
Empress Xiande paused for a moment and then looked at her with a smile, "What does Qinwang Fei think?"
"Her Ladyship would definitely not do that. Consort Jing did not just enter the Palace and Your Ladyship had lived peacefully with her for many years, so it is not worthwhile to deal with her at this critical juncture. "Shen Miao said," So this official's wife is very curious why did Your Ladyship admit to this crime? "
Empress Xian De stopped her footsteps and looked at Shen Miao with a smile, "You really believe in Bengong. Actually it is strange to talk about it. The first time Bengong saw you, I felt that you are very similar to Bengong, but your temperament is more intense. Most likely it is because your father is a military general. Bengong had heard a lot of things about you. Even though you have many methods and schemes, you have the heroic spirit of a family of generals when you do things, straightforward and efficient. Bengong cannot do it as civil officials pay particular attention to roundabout ways. Even if Bengong wanted to be extreme, it would be soft and soft until the end, so you and Bengong are ultimately different. "
