Empress can't eat enough

Chapter 119
On this day, Wei Yingning invited Mrs. Jiang Yuan, the wife of the Minister of War, into the palace to discuss with him which daughter to send to the palace.Unexpectedly, the sixth lady, Jiang Zhaoer, also came with her mother.

She was pretty and cute, and she was still as alive as before, and she didn't restrain herself like her mother because of Wei Yingning's changed status.

For this reason, when Wei Yingning mentioned that she would bring a daughter of the Jiang family into the palace to serve, she blurted out without any concealment: "Why did you choose a concubine daughter? Zhao'er is willing to come into the palace and serve the saint with the empress... ..."

"Zhao'er!" Jiang Yuanshi stared at her hard and stopped her words.

The queen asked her to choose a concubine because she didn't want her Zhao'er to enter the palace and be favored by her. How could she not be interested?However, she, a child who speaks freely and has no heart, can't understand the meaning of other people's words!
Jiang Zhaoer was indeed taken aback, glanced at Wei Yingning, then at her mother, finally bit her lip, and stepped back.

She speaks without restraint, and will go in when she doesn't understand, but she is not blind, unable to understand her mother's gestures.

However, it's too late.

Wei Yingning laughed suddenly, and asked Jiang Zhaoer: "You want to come into the palace? Why?"

Jiang Yuan moved her body and opened her mouth to speak for her daughter.

"You say it yourself." Wei Yingning pressed his hand for a while, signaling Jiang Yuanshi to sit still, and his eyes became more amiable, and said to Jiang Zhaoer: "If you speak well, I will do what you want , make you a Concubine De."

Jiang Zhaoer thought for a while, knelt down on the ground desperately, and expressed his sincerity.

"Ever since my brother had an accident and I lived in Prince Huan's Mansion for a day, I knew that I had a crush on someone."

"At that time, he was just a prince, and he could have been devoted to his wife for the rest of his life. Now, he is the king of a country, and he should accept the harem and extend his heirs."

"Since that's the case, Zhao'er begs the empress to fulfill Zhao'er's love for the saint!"

She bowed deeply, lying on the ground and not daring to get up.

Wei Yingning didn't reply for a long time, and Jiang Yuanshi was so frightened that he also knelt down.

She said sincerely and fearfully: "My empress, forgive me! Zhao'er is young and speaks ignorantly, so my empress should ignore her..."

"It's also very good." Wei Yingning pondered suddenly, and said with emotion: "If there is someone in the harem who can truly love the saint because of the admiration in his heart, not for power or self-interest, naturally, it should be fulfilled."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhao'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked Wei Yingning for her kindness, and promised her: "Your Majesty, don't worry! Zhao'er will never compete with your Majesty for favor in the palace from now on. I will definitely put you first in everything. No complaints."

"You don't have to worry about me." Wei Yingning said, "After entering the palace, whether you can become the person that the saint cares about depends on your own creation."

"My lady..."

"You guys go back now! The canonization document will be announced soon." Wei Yingning got up after saying that, and walked towards the inner hall.

She felt a little uncomfortable, but thinking that someone really admired Li Mu, she felt that she should be happy for him.

On the night when Jiang Zhaoer entered the palace, she came to the Baoxia room at the back of Fengwu Palace, leaning on the railing to overlook the layers of palace walls, drinking strong wine alone, in the cold wind, ignorant and tasteless.

The ghost Li Chongjian watched from afar and didn't bother her until she sneezed several times, then he flashed up to her, and said softly, "It's cold, be careful of catching a cold and getting sick. "

Wei Yingning glanced at him with bleary eyes, took another sip of cold wine, and said with a smile: "If you are ill, let the world know that the empress died of illness."

Li Chongjian was silent for a while, and asked seriously: "Have you really made up your mind?"

"Naturally it's decided." Wei Yingning affirmed, "The status of queen is not suitable for me after all."

"If I knew this earlier, why bother?" Li Chongjian also felt that she was very contradictory.

When she married the ambitious Huan Wang Li Mu, she advised him, so she never thought about today's ending?

"I can't control my fate, and I can't control my fate." Wei Yingning believes that she has come to this point by letting nature take its course. It is natural for her to fight, and it is the most natural choice for her to avoid.

"Are you really willing to part with him?" Li Chongjian didn't believe it. Her heart was harder than a rock. If she said she didn't have nostalgia for someone, she wouldn't.

"Whether he is willing or not, he belongs to the people of the world, not to me alone."

"When do you plan to leave?" Li Chongjian asked simply.

"Just in these two days! When I see my father and elder brother for the last time, you take me away." After Wei Yingning finished speaking, he looked at Li Chongjian solemnly and asked, "Is it possible?"

Li Chongjian nodded at her, naturally... willing to help.

Tonight is Jiang Zhaoer's big day, the emperor Li Mu finished his routine and went back to the Jinyang Palace as usual, taking a bath and changing clothes, but he never forgot to ask the palace people around him: "Has the empress rested?"

Huai En knew him best, and had already been investigated by someone, so he replied truthfully: "Your Majesty is drinking again tonight."

"How many cups did you drink?" Li Mu asked.

"Your Majesty is on a tall building tonight. She doesn't use a cup. She just drinks from the wine jar." Huai En replied.

Li Mu's eyes moved slightly, feeling something unusual.

He wanted very much to see her.But he felt...inappropriate.

He closed his eyes, feeling a little tired.But he still ordered Wynn to put up a memorial, not daring to slack off.

After the next morning, he couldn't wait to come to Fengwu Palace.

Wei Yingning prepared nourishing soup for him as usual, as usual generous and virtuous.

Li Mu was drinking obediently, but his eyes were scrutinizing her complexion.Knowing that she didn't care about her body last night, blowing the cold wind and eating cold wine, he didn't bother to ask.I saw that she looked fine, and felt a little at ease.

"Your Majesty will come to Fengwu Palace to accompany your ministers and concubines tonight!" Wei Ying said calmly.

Li Mu was startled, seeing that she almost forgot to respond.

Since the day one woman was carried into the palace one after another, he has no embarrassment to spend the night in Fengwu Palace again.

He knew Wei Yingning well.

He himself is more self-aware.

But today, Wei Yingning offered to ask him to accompany her in Fengwu Palace?

"What's the matter?" Seeing his reaction, Wei Yingning couldn't help but jokingly asked: "Your Majesty has seen a lot recently, and you don't want to get close to me anymore?"

"What are you talking about?!" Li Mu put down the bowl and chopsticks, took Wei Yingning's hand unconsciously, and said apologetically, "When I first came to the throne, I couldn't help myself...Ah Ning, I let you suffer .”

"Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven. To stabilize the harem is to check and balance the imperial court. If the courtiers and concubines feel aggrieved by this, don't they know nothing?" Wei Yingning said nonchalantly, she is really a good queen who knows the general situation.

"A-Ning..." Li Mu didn't know what to say.

He got what he dreamed of, but he also faintly felt that he was losing something.

Queen Aning is not quite the same as the former Aning.
