673 Black Eggs and Consort Yun (1)
At this moment, Consort Yun still did not know that His Majesty, the Emperor who had boasted in front of the Empress that he would never come to the Vermilion Bird Palace again, had taken the risk of being slapped in the face and brought a few little black eggs to her bedchamber.
She did not sleep well last night and slept well in the afternoon. She had just woken up and had already instructed the small kitchen to make food for her.
While waiting for dinner, she went to the bathroom to take a petal bath.
The prime of youth was easily gone, but no one had stipulated that an old woman could not treat herself well. It was true that Consort Yun had no power or influence in the harem, and it was also true that she did not have money to rely on. However, she had never lived as an undemanding woman.
Even if she died, she would die beautifully.
She was soaking comfortably when the female envoy in charge suddenly came over. The female envoy looked a little flustered. “Your Highness!”
“What’s wrong?” Consort Yun soaked in the bathtub and glanced at her casually. “Did you deduct my food again?”
“No.” The female envoy shook her head.
Consort Yun said, “Then why do you look like you’ve seen a ghost? Who are you pretending for?”
The female envoy touched her face. She didn’t want to look like she had seen a ghost, but the problem was that the Emperor had come to the Vermilion Bird Palace! They were still arguing fiercely in the morning, but now he came to visit again. Who could say that it wasn’t the Emperor who wanted to deal with Her Highness?
Just now, the Empress had stopped him. Now that it was gone, the Honored Consort was probably in danger!
Consort Yun closed her eyes. “If you have something to say, say it. If not, go out.”
The female envoy made up her mind and said calmly, “His Majesty is here! Your Highness, please receive him!”
What was that old thing doing in her bedchamber again?
Consort Yun slowly changed her clothes and left unhurriedly. She did not like the Emperor, so she was naturally not anxious. However, if she had told her earlier that her three precious eggs were here, she would definitely have flown out in a second.
The Emperor stood in the courtyard filled with begonia flowers and waited unhurriedly.
Consort Yun walked down the steps with a bad expression and walked up to him. She bowed perfunctorily.
He knew that Consort Yun would come slowly. He deliberately did not tell Consort Yun that the three little fellows had come because he wanted to see the regret on Consort Yun’s face. Unexpectedly, before he could see this expression, he was first defeated by Consort Yun.
Consort Yun said slowly, “Didn’t Your Majesty say that you won’t come to my Vermilion Bird Palace again? What’s this now? Don’t you feel embarrassed, Your Majesty?”
The Emperor’s expression froze. He was so happy to see the little black eggs that he forgot about this!
“Embarrassed?” A small voice said.
“Why are you embarrassed?” Another little voice said.
Hearing this soft and cute little voice, Consort Yun felt her heart tremble. She looked behind the Emperor!
One, two, three! Three round little heads stuck out from behind the Emperor. They widened their black eyes and looked at Consort Yun without blinking.
“This is…” Consort Yun was stunned.
“You are…” Xiaobao thought for a while. How did his mother teach them? Oh, got it!
“Are you Great-Grandma?” Xiaobao asked.
It was Ah Wan’s children! Consort Yun’s eyes instantly lit up. She walked over excitedly, pushed the Emperor away, squatted down, and hugged the three black eggs. The three of them were chubby and she couldn’t wrap her arms around them. Their faces were distorted.
The Emperor, who was caught off guard, almost staggered and fell! He had never known that a weak concubine could have so much strength that she could push him away with one hand. If he hadn’t reacted quickly, he would have fallen into the ditch!
Consort Yun did not have any martial arts, nor did she have extraordinary strength. However, when she suddenly saw the little fellows, she was so excited that she used most of her strength. Not to mention that it was a man in front of her, she would even swing a mountain!!!
“Great… Great-Grandma…” Xiaobao’s face was squeezed by his two brothers’ faces.
“Aye!” Consort Yun replied excitedly.
Xiaobao said with difficulty, “Con’t… Con’t breathe…”
Consort Yun hurriedly let go of the little fellows in her arms and sized them up excitedly. They were a little darker, but their facial features were really good. She originally thought that the Princess and Ah Wan were already beautiful enough, but the three little fellows were even more beautiful than them. The three of them should have taken after her grandson-in-law.
“Slurp~” Consort Yun wanted to see her grandson-in-law again.
“Let Great-Grandma take a good look at you.” Consort Yun had stayed in the palace for most of her life. Although she had no chance to see the children outside, Nangong Yan, Nangong Li, and Nangong Xi had all been raised in the palace. Consort Yun had seen them before, so they were not as cute as her little black eggs!
