Dongfang Hui was not surprised at all that the emperor did not show himself even after he was brought to the Suburban Palace.
However, Consort Lou came over to welcome him, which surprised Dongfang Hui. But come to think of it, it was reasonable.
Consort Lou definitely didn’t know the deal he made with the Emperor. As the emperor, he hoped that his concubines could live in harmony. But the situation varied.
If the two concubines were both from different major families, the emperor might not want the two concubines to live in harmony.
However, Lou Yanqing’s only background was Han Tingxuan who was someone the emperor trusted.
Therefore, the Emperor wanted him to get along well with Consort Lou.
Thinking of this, Dongfang Hui, as a later comer, had to stay low.
In fact, Dongfang Hui did not like playing tricks to get a man’s attention. Otherwise, he would not strive for a position in the government, although he did it also to help his brother.
The wives and concubines of great families fought against each. The fight was even worse especially in the Imperial Palace.
However, he had personally forced himself to such an extent.
Dongfang Hui felt sad but he did not show it.
To Dongfang Hui’s surprise, Consort Lou was actually very easy to get along with. He did not do something to bully him at all. This made him feel relieved and confused.
“Consort Virtue, the emperor is not fully recovered yet. He is resting in the inner backyard of the inner courtyard. I usually don’t disturb him unless I have to,” Lou Yanqing and Dongfang Hui said while drinking tea.
He was hinting Dongfang Hui not to greet the emperor every day. Dongfang Hui immediately said. “Thank you for your reminder, Consort Lou. I see.”
Lou Yanqing smiled. “Your room is next to mine. If you need anything or you have a problem with your servants, you are free to tell me.”
Dongfang Hui smiled. “Thank you, Consort Lou.”
After a short conversation, Lou Yanqing smiled, “Since you are pregnant now, you have to take good care of yourself. You can do whatever you feel comfortable with.”
Dongfang Hui could not tell if there was any special meaning between the lines. He only nodded.
Lou Yanqing was exhausted. Although he felt better since the last time he had the miscarriage, he was not as healthy as before. Therefore, he paid extra attention to his own wellbeing recently.
To make him look he was extra month pregnant, he wore a thick layer of cloth under his outfit. Now his belly was big enough, especially when he walked.
Dongfang Hui could tell that Lou Yanqing was exhausted. So he said goodbye and went back to his room.
Although he was brought here, all of his servants were sent back, leaving him alone.
Right now, the two servants waited on him were arranged by Lou Yanqing. Lou Yanqing knew it very well how many secret guards in the courtyard. But Dongfang Hui did not.
In Mo Yanzhi’s room, a secret guard was reporting about Dongfang Hui.
Mo Yanzhi nodded and said, “Is everything settled?”
“Yes.”
Mo Yanzhi did not ask about Dongfang Hui anymore. In fact, he did not care about Dongfang Hui at all. Since he was here, Dongfang Hui was already in his control. The only thing he cared about was Han Tingxuan.
