C11 Stay in the Palace

Shuisheng was injured and could not participate in the ceremony. Mrs. Hua was worried about Shuisheng, but Yiqing also had to hold the ceremony, so she could not take care of her. Under the empress's suggestion, Shuisheng was temporarily placed in the empress's palace with Wet Nurse Chang and Miaozhu taking care of her. Mrs. Hua first watched as Yiqing held the ceremony.

In fact, the empress really wanted to keep her, but she was Lanbao's mother now and the empress.

Shuisheng was moved to Lanbao's residence in the back hall. The emperor brought the other ministers to the main hall where the ceremony was held. The empress and Mrs. Hua arranged for Shuisheng to follow them.

Shuisheng lay on the bed and watched the empress and Mrs. Hua leave. Her eyes met with Lanbao, who was in the Wet Nurse Jiang's arms. Shuisheng revealed a harmless smile.

Lanbao's obsidian-like eyes suddenly turned dull.

Shuisheng blinked and smiled even more happily.

The little guy was still a fanatic. Hmm, he had a bright future!

Wet Nurse Chang and Miaozhu lowered their heads and were about to send the empress away, so they did not notice Shuisheng's smile.

When the two of them and the other palace maids stood up, Shuisheng had already put away her smile. Her small eyes looked around, but she had never been to the bedroom where Lanbao lived.

Shuisheng was quiet. Wet Nurse Chang and Miaozhu sat on her left and right, their eyes never leaving Shuisheng.

After sizing up the bedroom, Shuisheng fell into boredom.

Shuisheng did not put on her clothes. Afraid that Shuisheng would catch a cold, she lit a fire. The room was warm. "Ha ~" Shuisheng yawned and her eyelids started to move up and down. Not long after, she fell asleep.

Wet Nurse Chang and Miaozhu were already sweating profusely in the room where the fire was lit. Not only the two of them, but the palace maids and eunuchs who were on duty in the palace hall were also sweating profusely.

The temperature in the palace hall was just right for Shuisheng. It was neither cold nor hot, and she slept until the Empress and Mrs. Hua came back.

After hearing from the eunuch who was on duty at the door of the palace hall that Shuisheng had fallen asleep, the Empress and Mrs. Hua's actions became much gentler. After the Empress went in, she made a gesture to silence them in case they made any more noise.

During the year that she had spent with Shuisheng, the Empress and Mrs. Hua had already become familiar with some of Shuisheng's habits. Although Shuisheng was still young, she had a shallow sleep.

The Empress and the Empress went to take a look at Shuisheng.

When the two of them got closer, Shuisheng shivered. A few people came in and brought some cold air with them.

After looking at them, the Empress and Mrs. Hua left.

Shuisheng opened her eyes wide and looked at the wall. When the two of them got closer, Shuiheng woke up.

Because the back of her head was facing them, the two of them did not notice that Shuisheng had woken up.

"Junior sister, I'll leave Sheng to you!"

"Don't worry. It's getting late. Old Madam Hua and General Hua are still waiting for you. Go quickly! Don't let Old Madam Hua accuse you again." Shuisheng was injured. With Old Madam Hua's personality, her senior sister would not be well. She originally wanted her to stay in the palace to avoid the blame, but there was still a little girl at home, so Shuisheng was worried.

After Old Madam Hua and some other ministers and old mistresses who had received orders from the Empress, they all paid their respects to the Empress and accompanied the Empress Dowager to talk. Therefore, they did not know about Shuisheng's injury at the first moment. After the Empress Dowager mentioned it at the banquet, Old Madam Hua finally found out.

At the banquet, Old Madam Hua's expression was very bad. She glared at Mrs. Hua a few times, and the Empress also saw it.

The life of Mrs. Hua was not much better than the Empress's.

"Okay."

Mrs. Hua looked through the gap between the door and inside, and then left Phoenix Palace in a hurry.

Shuisheng sighed slightly. After listening to the short conversation between the two, she was left in the palace.

Her eyes turned around and around. It was already night time, and her stomach started to growl. Shuisheng turned her head around and looked at Wet Nurse Chang eagerly.

The bedroom was silent. The sound of Shuisheng's stomach growling could be heard by anyone with ears. Wet Nurse Chang was about to make porridge for Shuisheng, but Shuisheng turned her head around and stared at her.

She did not know when Shuisheng woke up. Wet Nurse Chang smiled and said, "young master, you're awake. I'll go and make porridge for you. Miaozhu, you stay here and guard the young master. I'll go and make food for him."

Shuisheng had stopped drinking milk at the age of eight months. She thought of many ways to make porridge for Shuisheng. She made all kinds of porridge. Wet Nurse Chang watched her every day, and she also learned how to do it. Now that the chef was not around, she could only do it herself.

Miaozhu also knew that Hua Shuisheng was only eating porridge now, so she nodded and said, "Maids, you can go. I will look after the young master."
