229 I Smell the Water Used to Wash Feet

“Miss Shanshan, what are you talking about? If the Pure Consort doesn’t live well, what good will it do you? The child in her stomach is very blessed to be pregnant with two little princes at once. Do you think the Zhao family has the such great ability?” Qing Ping was immediately unhappy and lectured Zhao Shanshan. Only then did Zhao Panpan’s expression turn for the better.

However, there were indeed rumors in the palace recently, saying that the palace had broken some taboos and that bad things had been happening recently. All the children had been in trouble, and they also said that the child in the Pure Consort’s stomach was a demon who wanted to take away their country’s hundred-year-old foundation.

“Alright, Shanshan is still young and insensible.” Zhao Panpan held her stomach and frowned, “Go to Lady Xin and ask around. See how things are going. Although Lady Xin is jealous that I’m pregnant with two princes, an honest person doesn’t do things in secret. I, Zhao Panpan, have done what I should do. I didn’t lay a hand on her child.”

When Jiang Xi heard this, she knew that Zhao Panpan had been implicated in the prince’s death.

Qing Ping lowered her head and left, her face filled with resentment. Zhao Panpan was already pregnant with two princes, so how could she harm Lady Xin’s child?

“I wonder how the child’s movements are, Pure Consort?” Jiang Xi could not help but ask. She had observed Zhao Panpan’s physiognomy and knew that she should not have any children. However, she was pregnant now. Was this also because of the incident in the imperial study? This child might really be problematic and bring shame to this country.

“These children are very lazy. They probably took after my personality and only started to move when they are almost five months old. They probably know that I miss home, so every time they eat the food I bring them, they will move very happily.” The corners of Zhao Panpan’s mouth curled up, showing some arrogance.

Jiang Xi frowned. She looked at Zhao Panpan’s stomach and found that it was not full of vitality like a normal newborn. It was filled with too much filth.

“The emperor has arrived!” As they were talking, a sharp voice came from outside.

The expression on Zhao Panpan’s face changed instantly. She became extremely weak and delicate. She slowly stood up and, together with Jiang Xi and the others, greeted the emperor.

The emperor walked in, dressed in bright yellow clothes. “Panpan, you don’t have to be so polite. If you’re weak, just lie down. You guys can get up too.” The emperor waved his hand, and Jiang Xi and the other two stood up and stood beside him with their heads lowered.

“I usually don’t have much time to come over. Usually, your sisters-in-law should enter the palace more often to accompany Panpan. Panpan is your older sister and she misses you, so you should also be more understanding of Panpan.” The emperor was expressionless, but Zhao Shanshan clenched her fists tightly.

Jiang Xi raised her head slightly. The emperor’s eyes swept over and stopped on Jiang Xi for a moment. The two of them looked at each other. The emperor felt as if his heart had stopped beating for a moment. His trembled a little, causing him to frown uncomfortably as if he had missed something important.

“Your Majesty, why are you covered in water?” After the emperor sat down, Zhao Panpan realized that his clothes and hair were all wet.

“This… Did Zheng Shan’er offend Your Majesty again?” Zhao Panpan was a little jealous, but she did not let the emperor see it. Instead, she ordered someone to bring clean clothes.

The emperor’s mouth twitched. How was he going to tell Zhao Panpan that when he came out of Zheng Shan’er’s place, she was standing in the attic and shouting, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty…” At that time, he thought that Zheng Shan’er was going to apologize to him, so he looked up and responded, then quickly walked back, and then… Before he could get angry, he saw Zheng Shan’er looking at him coldly, “I told you to Dodge, so why did you come forward?” With that, the window was closed with a bang.

The emperor did not know what sin he had committed to choose Zheng Shan’er to enter the palace. He was completely asking for trouble, and at this time, he was suffering unspeakable pain.

“Zheng Shan’er is young and insensible. She has the temperament of a child. Don’t have any contact with her on normal days, and don’t go around her palace.” The emperor’s expression was a bit serious. Although he was angry at Zheng Shan’er’s offense, Zheng Shan’er’s ability really fascinated him.

Zhao Panpan lowered her head and grunted in agreement.

Jiang Xi took a step back silently and muttered in a low voice, “I smell water that has been used to wash feet.” It was the smell of Sister Yi’s stinky feet.
