"Your Majesty, your Majesty has betrayed this slave! Your Majesty, Concubine Shu, refuses to reward you for anything. This slave should risk your life to save His Majesty the Seventh Highness. Being rewarded is already a great blessing!"

Although she was very jealous, she really couldn't ask for this bracelet.

What a pity, such a good bracelet.

All the mistakes were her fault, how could Concubine Shu not order her to kneel down and then force her into it!
Concubine Shu just looked at her with a smile, but had no intention of forcing the bracelet on her. "In that case, I won't bother my father-in-law to do important things."

Ye Xuwan nodded, bowed to the two ladies again, turned around and left.

There was a smile on Concubine Shu's face, as if she mentioned it unintentionally, "This little Ye Zi is a smart person, but for some reason he was kept by the prince and used in important ways."

"She has the ability, so she will naturally please the master." Concubine De looked at the flowers and birds, as if she was completely unaware of the meaning of Concubine Shu's words, "I heard that His Highness the Seventh Prince accidentally fell into the water before, and it has been less than half a month now. Is there any root cause of the disease? "

There was concern in every word of her words, and she didn't seem to be lying.

Concubine Shu only smiled and said, "Thank you, sister, I am thinking about Xiao Qi. He is naughty. It was better earlier. I remember that Princess Xinyang and Xiao Qi are about the same age. It would be better if they move around more often so that they can have some affection."

Concubine De looked at the flowers in the garden and was not in a hurry to answer. She just went to sit in the pavilion in front and ordered Chunyun to prepare some tea, then she shook her head.

"It's not that I don't want to, it's because Shinyang has a stubborn temper. Auntie is also having a headache. She doesn't know where to go all day long. I'm afraid that she often looks for His Highness Seventh, which delays her studies. His Highness, Seventh Highness, just takes good care of himself. Or Be quiet and feel well."

Concubine Shu understood the meaning of her words, paused slightly while holding the tea in her hand, and then continued to speak.

"It doesn't matter, but Xiao Qi has a naughty temper, and my sister is also worried that he will hurt Princess Xinyang. Since my sister said so, let's give it up."

The two of them looked friendly, but they didn't sit there for long before Concubine Shu found an excuse and left early.

Ye Xuwan, who had already left, came back at this moment.

Concubine De was sitting in the pavilion drinking tea leisurely.

"Xiao Zizi has met your Majesty," Ye Xuwan said, placing a plate of pastries on the table with a smile on her face, "My Majesty, it's cold and windy, so it's best not to sit in the pavilion for a long time."

Chun Yun received Concubine De's signal, smiled and ordered others to pack her things, and followed Concubine De back to the palace with the snacks sent by Ye Xuwan.

"Speaking of which, what do you want?"

Ye Xuwan pointed to the pastry in Chun Yun's hand, "I'd better eat something first."

There were only three of them left in the huge hall. Before they had even eaten two bites, Concubine De saw what was hidden in the pastry and put it back on the plate calmly.

The spring clouds shook and were put into the sleeves.

"Does your Majesty know that a little half a month ago, the Imperial Concubine recruited a group of women with similar looks and body shapes to the palace?"

Concubine De nodded slightly.

Aunt Liu didn't do things cleanly, and no matter how generous she was as a concubine, she could still coax the emperor to go to the palace with such a grounding.

"Naturally."

Concubine De sent someone to visit them, but those eight people were indeed very well-behaved, and nothing could be found out about them.

Ye Xuwan smiled and said: "There are only two new maids left in the imperial concubine's palace."

Concubine De recited Amitabha and frowned, "This is not surprising."

Of course it wouldn't be strange if she was just placed in the palace as a maidservant.

But Concubine Lin's plan goes far beyond that.

"Perhaps His Highness and Miss Lin have an engagement, and the Imperial Concubine was thinking of His Highness, so she sent the two maids to the Emperor's side."

Ye Xuwan didn't dare to raise her head when she said this, and lowered her head, as if she knew what a treasonous thing she had said.Concubine Lin now understands that if she makes the wrong move, her mother's family cannot be saved, and neither can she.

It would be better to personally select two people you can handle and send them to the emperor's pillow.

It's just that Ye Xuwan doesn't believe that Concubine Lin is really so generous.

"There is no basis for what you say about this." Concubine De's face became a little more solemn.

If she wanted to earn a future for her daughter, she would have had to wade through troubled waters, but now two more concubines appeared out of thin air, and she couldn't stand it no matter how good-tempered she was.

Hearing this, Ye Xuwan leaned over and bowed, "Your Majesty, I don't usually care much about things outside Jingxing Palace. Maybe you don't know that one of the two palace maids has already become a beauty."

I have to say that Concubine Lin's trick was really clever.

If two people with similar eyebrows and eyes are chosen to be the most similar, they will be said to be twins.

The title is the younger sister who comes from her mother’s family.

It was easy to keep the person in the palace and send him to the dragon bed naturally.

After coming out of Concubine De's palace, Ye Xuwan only felt tired.

My mind is tired, my body is tired, I am tired everywhere, and dealing with smart people is really a waste of my brain.

Concubine De would probably do anything for her daughter.

"How did you feel about what I asked you to do today?"

Mo Yunzheng didn't ask her why she came back now.

Seeing Ye Xuwan nod, her expression softened a lot.

"I have told Concubine De as much as I need to say," Ye Xuwan said, hesitating for a while and then spoke again, "It's just that Concubine Lin is pushing her from behind, and Concubine De may not be able to see it."

Mo Yunzheng was sitting on the main seat, looking down at Ye Xuwan with a faint look in his eyes.

"You don't need to worry about it anymore," Mo Yunzheng knew that Ye Xuwan might be holding back a lot of thoughts now, "put away those little thoughts of yours."

"Yes."

Concubine Lin now said that she was heartbroken every now and then, just to lure the emperor to her palace.

Ye Xuwan sighed in her heart, Concubine Lin was probably driven to panic.

It's just that there will always be times when the emperor doesn't come, and the concubines who have already been granted a title will inevitably not feel rebellious.
-
Concubine Lin's method was really only good for a short time, and the emperor was not very willing to do so. Now he rarely goes in and out of Concubine Lin's palace.

At the same time, it was reported that the south of the Yangtze River was in flood season and there was a fear of flooding. The emperor was worried about this and wanted to build dams and embankments.

Not a small project.

"Father, I believe that the most important thing now is people's livelihood. Building the river embankment cannot be completed overnight. The flood season is coming. It is better to move the people downstream to the upstream first and make plans after the flood season."

Mo Qingsong often saw the emperor these days, so he analyzed the matter in a clear and logical manner.

Even the emperor's expression softened a lot. His eyes fell on Mo Yunzheng and he snorted coldly, "Is this what the prince is thinking?"

Mo Yunzheng shook his head, "My father has forgotten that it rains a lot in the south of the Yangtze River. Every household will take precautions during the flood season. There is no need to move the people downstream directly upstream."

"Firstly, the imperial court cannot allocate so much money. Secondly, if the houses downstream are damaged, the people's hearts will inevitably be shaken and the foundation will be unstable. It is better to pile up the mud and sand first as a temporary precaution."
