Donggong Zhangjiao

Chapter 430 On the right track again
"The emperor?"

Through the moonlight coming in from the window, Fang Yun quickly recognized the identity of the person and was stunned for a moment.

Pei Yao glanced at the two children sleeping on the couch, sighed, picked up the fire stick placed aside, and lit the candlestick next to the couch.

At this moment, Fang Yun had already put on his shoes and stayed in bed.

"What's wrong, Your Majesty? Why are you here now?"

"I will be a thief."

Pei Yao looked at her with a hint of resentment in his tone.

These words made Fang Yun laugh. He held back his laughter, stepped forward and took Pei Yao's hand, shaking it twice.

"Why is the emperor still angry? He was lecturing his concubines in Zhongcui Palace during the day, and they were all frightened."

Speaking of this, Pei Yao's expression softened.

He held her hand instead and whispered, "It's not because I was afraid of your wild thoughts, so I came here quietly. It would be better for you to hug the two little ones and sleep together, and worry me for nothing."

"Then it's not because I believe in the emperor." Fang Yun approached him and looked up at him, "The emperor personally made the agreement with me. I know that the emperor must be putting on a show, so I'm not afraid."

The woman in plain pajamas has her long hair spread around her shoulders, like a light butterfly, and her beautiful eyes are like stars reflected in the dancing candlelight.

Just approach him without any defense, and say what you believe in him word for word, with gentleness and tenacity.

Looking at Fang Yun at this moment, the softness deep in Pei Yao's heart seemed to be touched by something. The familiar feeling reminded him of Fang Yun's desperate attempt to escape with him when he was being hunted. look.

This woman is obviously so weak, but yet so brave and tenacious at critical moments.

He is the emperor. Everyone knows how ruthless emperors have been since ancient times.

Even the young couple's queen and the close ministers who supported him all the way to the throne all wore a layer of armor to protect themselves in front of him, but when they came to Fang Yun, they trusted him so unconditionally.

"You really are." Pei Yao sighed and hugged him tightly, "how can I be willing to make you suffer?"

Fang Yun leaned against his chest quietly, like a docile cat.

She understood Pei Yao's state of mind at this time, and she also knew that her performance today was another right move.

"I am not afraid of being wronged, as long as I can help the emperor."

"It's about time. I will end these things as soon as possible."

Pei Yao gently pressed his chin against the soft hair of the woman in his arms, his voice low.

After talking for a while, Fang Yun called Qingrong and Yanwei to come in and carried the second princess and the fourth prince out.

After coming, of course someone is not willing to leave just now.

Make room.

However, there are many people in the palace, so sneaking in like this is not an option.

If they were discovered, it would ruin the plan, so it was better for the two of them not to see each other during this period.

Pei Yao came here today because he was too worried about Fang Yun's mood.

After all, he felt uncomfortable doing this scene.

So when I left the next morning, I also whispered a lot of instructions.

Fang Yun agreed one by one, which made Pei Yao feel more at ease.

After resting for another hour, he got up and went to Fengxuan Palace to pay his respects.

Yanwei was waiting for her to dress up, while Fang Yun looked at himself with a rosy complexion in the mirror, thought about it, and then gave instructions.

"Put on an extra layer of powder."

"Huh?" Yan Wei paused, "Don't you like to use powder?"

Fang Yun's skin was already good, fair and rosy, so he didn't need to apply powder at all. Most of the time, it was enough to draw eyebrows, apply rouge, and dot his lips.

Qingrong quickly understood Fang Yun's thoughts and said immediately.

"Your Majesty, you didn't sleep well last night and your complexion doesn't look good. Please put on some powder to cover it up."

"Oh, right."

Yanwei also understood and started to take action.Although both of them knew what was going on, they remained tight-lipped.

With this specially made-up face, Fang Yun deliberately showed a slight tiredness and irritability when greeting her, which also made other people in the harem feel that she was in a very bad mood at the moment.

Even the queen was a little unsure when she saw it.

After much deliberation, I finally said something that was right.

"The noble concubine doesn't look well. You have to take care of your own health in everything. The second princess and the fourth prince are relying on you. You have been serving the emperor for several years. There are always bumps in everything. Think about it carefully and speak clearly to the emperor. , that’s fine.”

"Thank you, Queen, for the tip. I understand."

Fang Yun leaned forward.

The queen nodded and asked everyone to disperse.

After leaving Fengxuan Palace, Lin Chan looked at Fang Yun's back with a thoughtful look in her eyes, and immediately gave instructions to her side.

"Liu Li, tell He Lingyi that these days are a good opportunity for her and she must seize it."

"Yes."

The palace maid responded and had a plan in mind.

So, taking advantage of the time in the afternoon, He Lingyi sent someone to Jingqian Palace to deliver some snacks.

Yes, she didn't go there herself, but sent someone to take her there.

This is also what Lin Chan teaches.

I went there in person yesterday, but I feel a little too clingy to go in person today, so I sent someone to see him off, just to tell the emperor that he has someone like you in mind.

It does work.

During this period, Pei Yao wanted to keep Fang Yuan cold. At Wan Lingyi's side, at Zhongcui Palace, Wan Lingyi said a few words on behalf of Yang Bin, which made Pei Yao not want to see her anymore. People in the harem, Bala, bala, it turns out that He Lingyi is more suitable for acting at this moment.

So two days later, Pei Yao went to He Lingyi's place.

He Lingyi was extremely happy when someone finally arrived.

When I was dressing up the next morning, I was all smiles.

"The Emperor indeed still has me in his heart."

"Yes, Lingyi has served the emperor for many years, how could he not have any friendship?" Panchun said with a smile.

He Lingyi curled his lips and whispered, "The things Yan Bin gave me are of some use, so keep them well."

"Yes." Panchun nodded.

While Yingxia was waiting for He Lingyi to go to Fengxuan Palace to pay his respects, Panchun secretly took some of the things Linchan had given to He Lingyi and quietly left Yong'an Palace through the corner gate.

But just when she reached a secluded place, she was suddenly stopped by a figure.

"Miss Panchun, where are you going?"

The person who came was none other than A Jin, the eldest maid next to Lin Chan.

Panchun's eyes flashed and he smiled unnaturally.

"It's Miss Ajin. I'm going to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some spices."

"But I remember that the road from Yong'an Palace to the Ministry of Internal Affairs is not this one." A Jin stepped closer and lowered his voice, "This is the road to Zhongcui Palace."

Hearing these words, Panchun's expression suddenly changed, but Ajin didn't give her another chance to speak. She suddenly took action and covered Panchun's mouth and nose with the handkerchief.

Panchun struggled twice before his body went limp and fell to the ground.

Ah Jin groped around her body for a while and found a small paper bag from her waist. When he opened it, it was exactly what Lin Chan was using to compete for He Lingyi's favor.

After He Lingyi came back from greeting him, he found that Panchun was nowhere to be found. Unexpectedly, someone came to report at noon, saying that Panchun had been found drowned in the lotus pond.

He said he was going to pick some lotus buds when he looked like that and accidentally fell in.

Because the pool was in a remote location with almost no one around, it took a long time for the eunuchs who were cleaning up to find it and fish it out.
