Five years after her death, she awoke on the dragon bed.

Chapter 110 A Silent Gaze: When he touched her pregnant belly, the baby suddenly moved…

For several days in a row, the servants serving in front of the emperor felt as if they were walking on thin ice.

While others were unaware of what had happened, Jiqing knew.

Because Xie Zhijie recklessly provoked His Majesty, His Majesty vented his anger on them.

Jinse was also oblivious to the situation. Seeing His Majesty playing with the sachet from time to time, she actually made one herself and gave it to His Majesty. He was immediately ordered by His Majesty to be dragged out and given thirty lashes.

Seeing Jinse being beaten, he was only relieved that it wasn't him who was being beaten.

After being beaten, Jinse became more obedient and dared not approach His Majesty casually anymore.

But everyone was still trembling with fear, afraid that His Majesty might dislike them and drag them away to be flogged.

Seeing that several days had passed and His Majesty still had a stern face all day, he secretly wondered whether he should ask His Majesty to go see the Fourth Miss.

The one who tied the knot must untie it; it should be the Fourth Sister who needs to resolve the knot in His Majesty's heart.

At lunchtime, Murong ate very little and seemed to have a poor appetite. Ji Qing noticed this and prepared his words in advance.

As evening approached, Ji Qing cautiously suggested, "Your Majesty has not had a good appetite these past few days. How about we have dinner at Xianfu Palace tonight? Granny Fan is an excellent cook and knows Your Majesty's eating habits. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Murong seemed not to have heard Ji Qing's words and did not reply.

Ji Qing couldn't figure out his master's thoughts and dared not say anything more, so he could only step aside and wait for the order.

When Murong left the imperial study, Jiqing looked at his master's indifferent and aloof expression and felt a pang of sympathy.

If it weren't for the fact that the Fourth Miss was currently resting during her pregnancy, he would have really wanted to bring the Fourth Miss, the culprit, over to serve his master. The Fourth Miss caused the trouble herself, yet they were made to bear the Emperor's wrath; this was unfair.

Since things had already come to this, he braced himself and asked, "Is Your Majesty going to Xianfu Palace?"

Murong slowed down and turned to look at him.

Ji Qing's heart was pounding, and he mustered his courage to say, "The dishes made by Granny Fan will surely suit His Majesty's taste. If His Majesty goes to Xianfu Palace, she will be happy to see His Majesty."

Murong coldly looked at Ji Qing, and just as Ji Qing's legs went weak, the emperor finally spoke: "Prepare the carriage for Xianfu Palace."

Ji Qing felt as if he had been granted a pardon and wiped away a cold sweat.

Lou Suyi was unaware of the current situation in Qianqing Palace. Her belly grew bigger every day, but the two palace maids serving her in Xianfu Palace seemed not to notice her growing belly, so she guessed that they already knew about her pregnancy.

If Jinshu and Yanhui knew that she was pregnant with the imperial heir, then Murong must have known as well, right?

It's laughable that she was thinking of running away with her baby back then; how naive of her.

When she heard the auspicious singing and shouting, Lou Suyi didn't even bother to move.

In any case, she gained status because of her son. When Granny Fan was suddenly transferred to Xianfu Palace, it was probably because Murong discovered that she was pregnant.

Ji Qing deliberately sang loudly, hoping that Lou Suyi would take the initiative and come out to greet him.

To everyone's surprise, Jinshu and the others came out, but Lou Suyi was nowhere to be seen.

He almost couldn't laugh, and secretly glanced at his master's inscrutable face.

"Where is Fourth Sister?" he asked Jinshu.

Jinshu replied truthfully, "The young lady is feeding the fish."

Ji Qing thought to himself, "The Fourth Miss would rather feed the fish than come out to greet the Emperor. She's really incredibly audacious."

Jinshu didn't think there was anything wrong with it; after all, the young lady was used to being disrespectful to His Majesty. If one day the young lady suddenly became extremely respectful to His Majesty, it would be frightening.

Murong ignored the servants and strode past them.

Before long, Murong saw Lou Suying throwing fish food into the pond. Hearing the noise, the little nun looked at him, glared at him, and then looked away.

Murong laughed in anger at her disrespectful behavior. How dare she glare at him?
He stepped forward, snatched the fish food from her hand, and smirked mockingly: "You have time to feed the fish, but why don't you have time to do needlework?"

Lou Suyi snatched back the fish food: "What does it have to do with His Majesty whether I do needlework or not?"

Why did she feel that what he said was quite offensive?

"Your needlework is passable now that you've become a nun, but you must have been even more remarkable before you became a nun, right? Didn't everyone have one back then?"

Lou Suying paused, her gaze fixed on his sarcastic tone: "What do you mean by that, Your Majesty?"

One for everyone? She rarely does needlework, so how many people could she possibly give them to? Besides Murong, isn't Xie Zhijie the only other one?

However, Xie Zhijie threw away the tassel she had given him, and that was many years ago. Apart from Xie Zhijie herself, no one else would know about this embarrassing incident.

“I don’t care for things that everyone has,” Murong said calmly.

Lou Suyi still didn't understand why Murong was telling her all this, but seeing that he was playing with the sachet she had given him, and seeing that he seemed to dislike it, she said, "If Your Majesty doesn't like the sachet I made, you can find another skilled embroiderer to remake it."

"The sachets you made aren't very good," Murong said coldly.

“It’s not very good, Your Majesty. You can just throw it away. I’m not a professional embroiderer. This is my first time making a sachet. It’s already pretty good. If Your Majesty doesn’t like it, you can just throw it away.” Lou Suyi said and was about to leave.

She felt that Murong was acting like he was on fire today, clearly there to cause trouble.

Unexpectedly, Murong pulled her back: "Are you sure this is the first time you've done this? Think carefully before you answer, or I will punish you for deceiving the emperor!"

Lou Suyi wondered what was going on.

Why would she need to lie about a sachet?

Just as she was about to answer, she suddenly remembered something and answered truthfully: "This is indeed the first time I've made a sachet, but I've made knotted cords before and given them away..."

"To whom?" Murong approached Lou Suyi.

"I gave it to Xie Zhijie, but he threw away the tassel I gave him. If Your Majesty doesn't like it either, just throw it away." Lou Suyi said irritably, without any need to hide it.

Murong was still holding onto the back of her collar. She slapped his hand away and turned around to see the emperor lost in thought. He seemed to be pondering something, his expression unreadable.

She shook her head secretly and ignored Murong.

Then she heard Murong's footsteps again, and she heard him say, "I will keep your sachet. If you don't anger me, I won't throw it away."

Lou Suyi was too lazy to answer. Whether he stayed or not was his business. Why did she have to tell her all this?
At this moment, Murong took a few steps to her side, naturally put his arm around her thick waist, and casually touched her stomach with his fingers.

She slowed down, suddenly wanting to ask him frankly whether he knew about her pregnancy all along.

Murong subconsciously wanted to touch the baby in Lou Suyi's belly. Coincidentally, the moment he touched her belly, the baby in her belly suddenly moved.

As a result, both of them sensed it.

For some reason, the usually quiet child suddenly kicked Murong's palm again and didn't stop for a while.

She looked at Murong, and Murong looked at her too. For a moment, the two stared at each other in bewilderment...

Haha
