Chapter 285 Wanting to Have Both a Son and a Daughter
Although her heart was already filled with deep emotion, she didn't know how to accurately express this complex emotion with words. When faced with the king's concerned questions, she just stood there in a daze, and after a moment, she stammered, "My king, I'm a little hungry!"
After hearing Dalan's slightly shy words, the king seemed to come back to his senses suddenly from his thoughts, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he nodded repeatedly, saying: "Okay, okay, I will tell the imperial kitchen to prepare the food quickly! Make sure Lan'er has enough to eat and stays healthy." After that, the king gently patted the back of Dalan's hand, and that action was full of comfort and love.
Then, he slowly turned his head, his eyes revealing a hint of determination and majesty, and then he ordered loudly: "Quick, serve the food quickly! Ask the imperial kitchen to prepare some light food."
Then, he turned around like a spring breeze, his eyes full of tenderness, and said softly: "Lan'er, don't worry, the food will be here soon. How do you feel now? Do you still feel uncomfortable?"
Dalan was a little shy, and gently shook her head, with a faint smile on her face, and said softly: "I am really fine, and I am doing very well. Your Majesty, don't worry."
At this moment, Dalan suddenly remembered what happened yesterday. She only almost fell into the lake accidentally, but the lady He actually fell into the lake. Thinking of this, her heart tightened and she asked anxiously: "Your Majesty, how is the lady He now? The baby in her belly must be safe and sound."
The king's attention was now focused on Dalan. As for Xilin's situation, he just arranged her in the queen's palace and never asked about it again. He sighed softly, with a trace of worry in his eyes, but he still comforted her softly: "Don't worry, she is now in the queen's palace, and the queen is taking care of her personally. She will be safe. And the imperial physician is always watching over her and will take good care of her and the child." After that, he gently held Dalan's hand, as if to pass all the warmth and peace of mind to her.
At this time, Nami Feiti walked in slowly with a delicate tray in his hand. On the tray was a beautiful porcelain bowl filled with steaming lean meat porridge. The rich aroma filled the air, as if telling of the meticulous preparation of the imperial kitchen.
"Your Majesty, this is the lean meat porridge prepared by the imperial kitchen specially for Madam Lan." Mi Feiti said softly, with a hint of respect and concern in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, the king immediately stepped forward, carefully helped Dalan up, and let her lean on the soft bed. His movements were gentle and skillful, as if he was afraid of hurting the person in his arms. Then, the king steadily picked up the porridge on the tray with both hands, bent down slightly, approached Dalan's lips, scooped up a spoonful of porridge with a spoon, blew it gently, and made sure that the porridge was at the right temperature before carefully feeding Dalan.
Dalan looked at the king's focused expression, and a warm current surged in her heart. She slowly opened her mouth, took the porridge in the spoon, and savored the deliciousness and warmth. Every mouthful of porridge seemed to carry the king's love and affection, making her feel extremely happy. Gradually, Dalan ate a few mouthfuls, but tears quietly slipped down her cheeks without knowing when.
The king's heart tightened when he saw this, thinking that she was feeling unwell again. He quickly put down the bowl in his hand and asked nervously, "Lan'er, what's wrong with you? Is your stomach hurting again? Go call the imperial physician, quickly..." His words were full of worry and anxiety.
Seeing that the king was so worried about her, Daran was deeply moved. She grabbed the king's hand, shook her head gently and said, "Your Majesty, I'm fine. I'm just too happy. It's worth my life to be treated so well by you!" Her voice was a little choked, but her eyes flashed with determination, as if she wanted to remember this gratitude forever in her heart.
As the king listened to Dalan's words, the feeling of self-blame in his heart became stronger, as if thousands of needles were piercing his heart. He hugged Dalan tightly in his arms, and the warmth in his arms made him feel a little warm and comforted, as if it could dispel all the haze in his heart.
"Lan'er," the king whispered softly, his eyes full of guilt, "it was all my fault before. I neglected you and let you suffer so much. Don't worry, after this matter is completely resolved, I will definitely compensate you."
Dalan could understand the king's difficulties. She knew that the king had to distance himself from her in order to protect her, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble to her. So she did not blame the king, but responded gently: "I have the king's love and our two children. I am already very satisfied. I only hope that I can accompany the king hand in hand in this life, until we are old and gray, and never separate."
Hearing Dalan's sincere words, the king's heart seemed to melt and turned into a pool of soft water. He gently stroked Dalan's slightly bulging belly, his eyes gleaming with anticipation, and said, "I hope this baby is a son, so that we will have both a son and a daughter."
At this time, Dalan slowly raised her head, looked at the king with a firm and gentle gaze, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I am fine now, you should go and see Madam He. She is more seriously injured than me, and she must be in great need of your company and comfort at this moment."
After hearing this, the king felt a warm feeling in his heart. He knew that Dalan was always so considerate and always put other people's feelings first.
However, the king found it hard to understand why she pushed her husband to another woman, so he asked curiously, "Aren't you jealous because you are looking for another woman?"
Hearing this question, Dalan slowly lowered her head and answered softly: "Which woman can really watch her husband with other women? Even between ordinary couples, this feeling is unbearable! However, you are not an ordinary person. You are the extremely noble king, the ruler of our Loulan Kingdom, and the king of all the concubines in the harem. As your concubine, I know my identity and status very well, and I would never dare to try to possess you alone!"
After hearing this, the king nodded slightly, indicating his agreement with her, and consoled her: "Well, in that case, I will go and see Madam He. However, I will still come back here to accompany you tonight." After that,
The king stood up, looked at Dalan affectionately, then turned and left the room.
Watching the majestic king slowly leave, Mifiti frowned in confusion, his eyes full of puzzlement, and asked softly: "Miss, why did you drive the king away? What is the reason?"
Dalan raised her head slightly, a faint smile appeared on her lips, and her eyes revealed a trace of wisdom and indifference. She said slowly: "There are many concubines in the king's harem. Even if the most virtuous concubine has fallen, we must not relax at all. If you monopolize the king's favor, it will be like standing on the cusp of the storm. The more favored you are by the king, the greater the crisis you face and the faster you will die."
