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

Chapter 134 The little nun fluttering around him made him feel warm and fuzzy.

"His Majesty found out about your visit to the Clothing Bureau so quickly?" Lou Suyi thought for a moment and realized something was amiss.

For a big shot like Murong, such a trivial matter wouldn't reach his ears. It's unlikely that Jinshu would go to the emperor to file a complaint just because she suffered a setback at the Clothing Bureau.

Jinshu is a steady and reliable person, and she once served in the imperial court. It is impossible for her to do something so rash.

When Jinshu saw Lou Suyi looking at her, she quickly clarified, "This servant did not go to the Qianqing Palace to file a complaint with the Emperor."

It must have been the rumors circulating in the harem that reached His Majesty's ears, and he used this method to slap those who looked down on the girl in the face.

The young lady is now the focus of everyone's attention in the harem. They are jealous that she is pregnant with the emperor's child, and they wish they could beat her to death at the slightest sign of trouble.

Fortunately, no one gossiped about it to the girl, so she was unaware that the matter had become a big deal.

"Has the news of your rejection at the Clothing Bureau spread throughout the palace?" Lou Suyi wondered, considering this possibility.

Jinshu felt there was no need to hide it anymore, so she answered truthfully: "It has indeed spread, and everyone is laughing at you, Miss. It's possible that the matter reached His Majesty's ears, and that's why His Majesty is supporting you in this way."

Lou Suyi thought to herself that it might be because she was pregnant with the emperor's child. She was the child's mother, and if she was ridiculed in the future, the child would also lose face.

I have to say, it feels really good to be a mother who gains status because of her son.

Overjoyed, she called everyone over and rewarded each person with a gold ingot.

The group exchanged bewildered glances, realizing they had never encountered such a generous master before, and none of them dared to accept the money.

"Take them all. There will be many more things for you to do in the future. If I live well, you will all live well too." Lou Suyi smiled brightly. "From now on, you can work for me with peace of mind. I will not mistreat you. You can go and do your own things. Jinshu and Yanhui can take care of me here."

Since she had decided to stay in the palace, she naturally needed to cultivate good interpersonal relationships, especially with the close attendants around her.

Everyone responded in unison, and looking at the heavy gold ingots, they were all filled with enthusiasm.

As evening approached, Murong Yuanyuan saw Lou Suying waiting in front of Xianfu Palace.

Upon seeing him arrive, she immediately greeted him warmly: "Your Majesty has arrived! It's cold outside, please come in!"

Murong frowned as he looked at her large belly: "Stand still and don't move."

Lou Suying stood still as expected. When Murong entered Xianfu Palace, she warmly took his arm and said, "Granny Fan has prepared many of His Majesty's favorite dishes, just waiting for His Majesty's arrival."

Murong looked at the little nun's beaming face and asked casually, "So happy today?"

"Seeing His Majesty makes me happy."

Lou Suyi, of course, didn't say that it was seeing the bright yellow gold ingots that made her happy all day.

Murong did not expose Lou Suying's lie.

He knew the young nun was a little miser, and it was his gift today that made her so happy. He had to admit, the young nun was quite easy to please.

Upon entering the palace, Murong was not in a hurry to have dinner. He first asked Lou Suyi to measure his body size.

"How about I make an undergarment for Your Majesty? I'm afraid my needlework isn't very good, and if Your Majesty's outer garment is unsightly, it would be unbecoming of Your Majesty's status," Lou Suying suggested while standing on tiptoe to measure Murong's shoulder width.

"Make me two outer garments too. I have faith in you. But you're quite far along in your pregnancy, so it's not too late to make them after you've given birth and recovered." Murong looked at the little nun circling around him and suddenly felt a warm feeling in the scene. Come to think of it, he never imagined that one day Su Yi would become his woman.

"Let me show Your Majesty the clothes I made for the child," Lou Suyi said, presenting the child's clothes to Murong as if they were treasures.

Murong stared at the small garment for a long time, her gaze deep and unfathomable.

"Isn't it cute?" Lou Suyi said, touching her pregnant belly. "Lord Liu told me to control my diet and said that it would be difficult to give birth if the baby is too big, but I'm always worried that the baby isn't getting enough nutrition."

Murong shifted her gaze from the small garment to Lou Suying: "I'll listen to Minister Liu on this matter; your safety is the most important thing."

Lou Suyi nodded repeatedly: "I cherish my life the most, and I will definitely give birth to the child in good health."

Murong's lips couldn't help but curl up: "I'll have Granny Fan deliver the baby for you. Granny Fan is very experienced, and I can rest assured with her here."

Lou Suyi suddenly felt a little emotional: "Back then, I never imagined that one day Granny Fan would help me give birth."

She never imagined that she would become Murong's woman.

She always felt that she and Murong were two completely different people. Although he was not favored, he was a prince of noble status, while she was just the most insignificant concubine's daughter in the Lou family, and all she wanted to do was get out of the quagmire of the Lou family.

"I never imagined I would become emperor," Murong said calmly.

"Then why did His Majesty suddenly become emperor?" Lou Suyi blurted out.

The moment she opened her mouth to ask that question, she knew she had overstepped her bounds. How could she possibly ask such a question?
She slapped herself: "I overstepped my bounds..."

“There’s nothing wrong with saying it. I think there’s no difference between being a prince and being an emperor, but being in the thick of it all means you have to fight for it, otherwise even my closest people will be implicated. Do you remember when I was pushed into the pond in the Crown Prince’s residence?” Murong took Lou Suyi’s hand and sat down.

"Of course I remember, I am His Majesty's savior! With my help, I saved the future emperor!" Lou Suyi said with great pride.

A hint of a smile flashed in Murong's eyes: "Back then, my mother was an unfavored concubine, and I was an unfavored prince. Yet, my father unintentionally praised me, and that led to our deaths. Many times, even if I don't compete or fight for anything, some people will still treat me as an enemy. I've remembered that incident for many years, and I know that even if I don't fight for this position, my other brothers won't tolerate me. My victory means I'm quite lucky."

"It was clearly His Majesty's strategic planning that won him this position!" Lou Suyi seized the opportunity to flatter the emperor.

Murong knew, of course, that Lou Suying's praise was just something to be taken with a grain of salt; she never meant what she said.

After dinner, Murong took a bath at Xianfu Palace.

Lou Suyi really wanted him to return to Qianqing Palace, so she followed behind him, trying to find the right words, when Murong suddenly turned around and looked at her.

She blurted out, "Isn't His Majesty going back to the Qianqing Palace?"

Her legs went weak just thinking about what happened last night.

Murong glanced at her indifferently, ignoring her with a haughty demeanor.

She wanted to persuade him, but Jinshu winked at her, as if to tell her to stop courting death.
In the end, she shut up.

She was initially worried that Murong would harm her, a pregnant woman, but thankfully he didn't lay a hand on her and instead kept touching her belly.

It's clear that he's really looking forward to the birth of this child.

"If I have a daughter this time, will His Majesty be disappointed?" Lou Suyi asked tentatively.
