Chapter 308 Do You Know? Lin Yitang 22
The emperor enjoyed spending time in the Wutong Pavilion, which had a warm and cozy atmosphere with a sense of tranquility.
Back at Wutong Pavilion, Zhao Huiyue was already asleep. Lin Yitang led the Emperor to see Zhao Huiyue for a while. The Emperor then nagged the wet nurse and returned to the main pavilion with Lin Yitang.
It was still early, so Lin Yitang suggested playing chess. The emperor naturally agreed, and Lian Yun and Zhang Mao quickly brought over the chessboard and pieces.
There are skills involved in playing chess. You can't be too good at it. If you don't give the emperor face, he won't play chess with Lin Yitang again next time, and it will lose a bit of the "fun".
However, one cannot be too weak, so one needs to "yield" and remain calm and evenly matched with the official, winning one round or losing one round.
With her slender hands constantly rubbing the black chess pieces, Lin Yitang frowned slightly, as if pondering how to play the game.
The official stared at the fair, jade-like hand, his eyes growing deeper. Seeing the girl deep in thought, his heart burned with desire, and he took the hand holding the chess piece.
Lin Yitang looked up at him with a puzzled expression, as if asking why he was holding her hand, since she hadn't done so yet.
"Alright, let's play this game tomorrow when we have time. A moment of bliss is worth a thousand pieces of gold, Yitang, let's go to bed." The official said ambiguously.
Lin Yitang is truly speechless. This old man can get horny anytime.
Speechless as she was, Lin Yitang's face flushed red, her eyes filled with tears, and she kept biting her lips.
"An official...the government?"
The emperor could no longer restrain himself and directly led Lin Yitang to the inner room. Zhang Maoze, being quite sensible, took Lianyun and Chengyue out.
Amidst surging desires, he vaguely remembered the emperor whispering, "Yitang, give me a son."
When Lin Yitang regained consciousness, it was already the next day. The emperor got up quietly, and the servants brought in the washing utensils, remaining silent throughout.
Lin Yitang got out of bed, staggering slightly. The Emperor, who had noticed the commotion, quickly stepped forward and helped her up, saying, "Why did you get up so suddenly? It's still early. You should rest well. Last night..."
The official paused for a moment, then chuckled and said, "My lady, you worked hard last night."
Lin Yitang clenched her small hand into a fist and punched the official lightly, which made the official laugh out loud.
Zhang Maoze glanced at Lin Niangzi with curiosity. After the meeting last night, Lin Niangzi's relationship with the Emperor seemed different from before. He had only seen this before when Consort Zhang and the Emperor were together.
The Emperor is not holding a grand court session today, but he needs to hold a small court session with several ministers of the Cabinet and also deal with today's memorials.
After the emperor left, Lin Yitang looked puzzled. What was wrong with the emperor? Before, she thought the emperor treated her very indifferently, not as well as Zhang Niangzi and Rong Niangzi, but it seemed that after yesterday, he had become more sincere.
Regardless of the changes, these changes are good for her. However, Zhao Huiyue is already one year old, and she has almost completely consolidated the power of Wutong Pavilion. It's time to prepare to give birth to a prince.
Lin Yitang paused for a moment. Now that the Emperor is supporting Consort Zhang, if Consort Zhang were to raise her child, her status would not be comparable to Consort Zhang's.
However, judging from the Emperor's current relationship with Consort Zhang, it's likely that what remains is their past affection. Moreover, the Empress might also be raising a child, given her considerable influence in both the court and the harem...
……
Lin Yitang did not invite anyone from the Bai family from the time she became pregnant, gave birth to the princess, or celebrated the princess's first birthday. Firstly, the Bai family was in Yangzhou, which was a long way away; secondly, the Bai family were merchants, and she could not bear to see Madam Bai being discriminated against in the palace. She could only wait for the Bai and Lin families to rise to prominence.
The news eventually reached the Bai family, who sent gifts. Bai Ruonan gave birth to a daughter at the beginning of the year. The Ningyuan Marquis's mansion is truly complicated. Bai Ruonan accidentally learned that Gu Yankai married her for the dowry.
Bai Ruonan almost had a difficult childbirth after learning about this. Fortunately, the two nannies who had been given to her were careful and brave and saved her. However, Bai Ruonan's health was damaged, and her daughter was also weak and sickly.
