Zhu Yixiu is reborn in Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace and single-handedly kills her way throug

Chapter 387

"Sister, didn't you say a few days ago that you wanted to eat milk cake? When I returned to the palace yesterday, I begged the Imperial Concubine Chun. The Imperial Concubine was kind enough to let me use the small kitchen. I made it this morning and gave it to you. Would you like to try it?"

Having said that, without waiting for Zhaopin to speak, he opened the food box on his own.

However, during this action, the smell of the other person inevitably filled Zhaopin's nose.

He subconsciously pinched the handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose, but his action was very conspicuous.

In the garden, Zhaopin had asked Ke Guiren to stop using the goose pear incense in the tent on the grounds of morning sickness because she was pregnant.

But for some reason, he started using it again just one day after returning to the palace?

Concubine Ke was the first to feel embarrassed by Concubine Zhao's actions.

"Sister, is the scent of the goose pear in the tent making you uncomfortable again?"

Zhaopin leaned back slightly and said, "Don't worry, I can't touch any spices since I got pregnant. Otherwise, I feel really uncomfortable. Why are you using this incense again as soon as you come back?"

Noble Lady Ke felt a little embarrassed.

"Ever since my sister gave me this incense, I've been sleeping better. I just returned to the palace yesterday, and for some reason, I couldn't sleep, so I asked Cui Ning to light some."

"I thought the smell would have dissipated by this morning, but it's so subtle and has lingered for so long that it's making my sister uncomfortable."

Is this a hidden trick?

Zhaopin waved her handkerchief and said, "It's my fault. I've been feeling very uncomfortable since I got pregnant, and I've made things difficult for you."

Concubine Ke waved her hands again and said, "Sister, what are you talking about? A pregnant woman should put everything first."

After saying this, Noble Lady Ke did not dare to move any further.

He waved his hand to Bai Yin and said, "Bai Yin, come here and take out this milk cake and let your master have a taste."

Bai Yin glanced at Zhaopin and saw that she had no intention of refusing, so she stepped forward and took out the milk cake.

The white and tender pastry is topped with a layer of osmanthus sauce, which is really fragrant.

Even though Concubine Zhao did not trust Concubine Ke, she also had some thoughts about this snack.

But she was cautious after all.

He glanced at the dessert and said with a smile, "This sweet-scented osmanthus milk cake is really delicious. If I weren't feeling unwell right now, I would have spent three or five pieces right away to repay you for getting up early this morning and taking the trouble to take care of me."

In his words, he was still referring to the goose pear fragrance in the tent.

Noble Lady Ke did not force it. "It's okay. This dish was made for you. Try it when you feel better. If you like it, I can make it every day. It's not difficult."

Zhaopin smiled and nodded, "In that case, I'll have to trouble you."

Concubine Ke's gaze fell on Concubine Zhao's belly, where nothing could be seen.

"I'm going to be the godmother of your unborn child. How can you be so polite to me about these little things?"

When Zhaopin heard this, her eyes flashed. She smiled at Ke Guiren, then lowered her head and looked at her belly.

But he didn't speak again for a while.

Noble Lady Ke also reacted and quickly stood up again.

"My fragrance is too strong today, so I won't bother you here. Just take a good rest first. I'll come see you tomorrow."

After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Zhaopin to say anything more.

He told Cui Ning to pick up the empty food box, and the master and servant turned around and left in a hurry.

Zhaopin was left alone, looking at the snacks in front of her with an uncertain expression, speechless for a long time.

Bai Yin sent the person back and saw Zhaopin in such a state. She could probably guess what she was thinking.

She walked forward slowly and said, "Your Majesty, Doctor Zhou said that you are pregnant and should not worry too much. If you don't like this snack, may I take it away?"

Zhaopin's eyes moved, and then she looked at Bai Yin. "Tell me, is someone as pure-minded as Concubine Ke really suitable to live in this deep palace?"

Bai Yin's expression changed slightly.

Does our queen want to take Concubine Ke’s life?

What's up with this?

Zhaopin shook her head. "How could I have such intentions? Your master is not so vicious."
