Palace Fighting Naive Concubines’ Ascent to Power

Chapter 493: Chapter 493: Draw It Out

Xiao Jizi burst into a cough, suddenly at a loss for words.

He hated his own incompetence, wishing nothing more than for His Majesty to be there to comfort his master and make him smile through his tears.

He pinched himself, forcibly perking up, and squeezed out a faint smile, “I imagine the master is overly missing his parents and elder brother, causing distress. Master, you are blessed with both wisdom and fortune. Let this servant speak boldly—your parents and elder brother are surely as fortunate as you. They love you dearly and would never wish to see you in sorrow. Master, as you search for them, they must be searching for you too?”

“Really?” Lian Hua asked blankly, her eyes red-rimmed.

Xiao Jizi nodded affirmatively, “Certainly, your parents and elder brother love you so much, how could they bear not to come and find you? The servant thinks it’s just a matter of opportunity. Moreover, you are not alone; isn’t His Majesty with you? With His Majesty, you will surely find them. Just wait a little longer; today you met Madam Lian, and soon you will see your parents and elder brother.”

The lost look in Lian Hua’s eyes slowly dissipated, and a light returned to them.

Lin Yuejuan wiped her moist eyes, holding back a smile, yet she did not echo the sentiment, still adjusting her thoughts.

Seeing an opportunity, Xiao Jizi pressed on, “Master, you are now pregnant. You must take great care of yourself, for them, for His Majesty, and for the child in your womb, to ensure you will meet them someday.”
