Everyone in my harem is talented

Chapter 339 Encourage

Before Fu Mengli met the fifth prince Qin Mingzhang, she heard the eunuch come to report that Concubine Lan wanted to see her.

Alanruo only brought Yi Ze, the chief palace maid from Wenming Palace, and came here leisurely without bringing anything else.

Alanruo bowed respectfully and said softly, "Greetings, Madam Concubine Xian. I am sorry to bother you."

"Your belly is a month bigger than mine, but you don't look pregnant at all."

Fu Mengli glanced at Alanruo's abdomen and said indifferently.

"Everyone who sees me says so. It's hard to detect movement in my belly. I myself am sometimes confused, but the imperial physician says that a small number of pregnant women will not show their belly until they are about to give birth. I feel that I am very lucky this way."

"Stop standing, sit down."

Alanruo looked around and sat down below Fu Mengli.

"Your Highness, this place is much more comfortable than this concubine's."

"I wonder if Lady Lan is used to drinking this wolfberry tea?"

Fu Mengli picked up the teapot and poured two cups of wolfberry tea, then motioned Meihua to give one cup to Alanruo.

Alanruo took the wolfberry tea and drank it in one gulp.

"Since I entered the palace, I have never tired of eating fine food. Everything I eat, drink and use is exquisite. When I go hunting, I have to grill meat every day. The queen's wolfberry tea is just right for me to get rid of the boredom."

"Aren't you afraid that I will poison you?" Fu Mengli then drank another cup of wolfberry tea.

"Your Majesty, you are joking. I am just a noble lady from a foreign race with blue-gold eyes. Although Your Majesty did not say anything, I know myself..."

Alanruo's mouth curled down, and her golden and blue eyes were filled with big tears. She choked slightly and continued:

"If I give birth to a prince or princess with the same eye color as mine, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to even get a proper marriage."

"Why are you pretending to be pitiful in front of me?"

Fu Mengli looked directly at Alanruo with a clear and cool gaze, and was not moved by her pitiful appearance.

"I was sent to the Imperial City by your father, General Fu, to be presented to Your Majesty. I am naturally standing behind you, Your Majesty.

When General Fu sent me here, he mentioned you with great pride, saying that although you were quiet, you had quietly won the emperor's favor and gave birth to the fifth prince. In the future..."

"Shut up, I don't have such big ambitions." Fu Mengli coldly interrupted Alanruo's unfinished words.

"I have spoken out of turn."

There were still tears on Alanruo's face, and her eyes flickered in the bright candlelight.

"I like the Fifth Prince's temperament very much." Alanruo tilted her head and said again.

"so what?"

“His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince has a domineering and aggressive temperament.

I have carefully observed the personalities of several previous princes, and the one I am most optimistic about is your Highness the Fifth Prince, Your Majesty.

Therefore, I want to establish a good relationship with the Empress, and seek refuge with you and His Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, so that I can plan for the prince in my belly and find a good marriage in the future."

Seeing the impatience in Fu Mengli's brows, Alanruo paused.

"Your Majesty, please listen to me patiently."

"Empress Xianfei, do you think that the Fifth Prince would be willing to submit to others given his personality?

You have no ambition, but if your own son wants to fight for it, would you have the heart to watch him?

If any other prince took the throne, do you think he would tolerate the Fifth Prince's temper? I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to save his life, right?"

Fu Mengli pursed her lips, her expression unchanged.

"Although the princes are still young and His Majesty is still in his prime, Your Majesty still needs to make more preparations for His Majesty the Fifth Prince."

"Speaking of which, given my origin in the Western Regions and foreign blood, even if my son doesn't inherit my heterochromatic eyes, if he is a prince, he will definitely be the best brother to the prince vying for the throne, don't you think so, madam?"

"I didn't expect you to be so wise?"

"Your Majesty, thank you for the compliment." Alanruo lowered her head in shame and smiled.

"I have brought you some news, Your Majesty. Do you want to hear it?"
