Empress, she is rising step by step

"I've heard about your family. Are you still used to staying in Yeting Palace?"

"There is nothing that I am not accustomed to. I am a slave. I only want to serve my masters well, but my hands and feet are really too clumsy. It makes you laugh."

Lin Guanqi lowered his eyes to cover the emotions in his eyes, "The slave's sins are serious, Bao Lin should just pretend that he doesn't know the slave."

Cao Wenxi felt the heat in his eyes. She couldn't accept that his voice had become like this. In her memories, the young man in bright clothes and angry horses, who always called her "Sister Wenxi" with a smile, has now become a hunched eunuch.

Seeing that his cheeks on both sides were already red and swollen, and there were bright red blood oozing out from around his mouth, her heart throbbed.

"I'm not looking at you. In fact, you don't need to be so harsh. Just wait until that person comes back and show off."

"My slave is at fault and deserves to be punished. My slave is thick-skinned and thick-skinned, so this little injury doesn't matter."

Lin Guanqi looked at the ground with his dim eyes. There was an ant running back and forth along the gaps between the floor tiles.

"Baolin, please come back. Don't get into unnecessary trouble for your slave."

Cao Wenxi knew that he didn't want to implicate her, and she also knew that she shouldn't come over or talk to him. But she couldn't control herself at all.

This is the person she liked when she was young and ignorant...even though she never had the chance to express her love...

Yueran looked around and said anxiously: "Master, it's time for you to go back. It's time to drink the medicine."

Cao Wenxi came to his senses, turned away and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, "Then I'm leaving, so take care of yourself."

After saying that, she hurriedly turned around and left without looking back.

Back at Weiyang Palace, Cao Wenxi came to the dressing table and rummaged for something.

Yueran looked at the yard and closed the door. "Master, you really shouldn't have talked to that little eunuch just now. He is a sin slave. If someone with intentions finds out, he will get into trouble."

"Since he has entered the palace, he is the emperor's slave, so he is naturally loyal. What's wrong with me saying a few words to a eunuch? Can I only talk to you and the emperor all day long, and can't I also talk to the eunuch?"

"That's not what I mean, slave." Yueran frowned.

"Master, I don't know what the relationship between you and him was in the past. But that was all in the past. Once you enter the palace, you should completely break up with the people and things in the past. Don't forget that you are Cao Baolin now, the Emperor. My concubine is no longer a Miss Cao family."

The master finally got the idea to compete for favor, but before he could enjoy the glory and wealth, he was tied up by love and affection.

She still wants to live for a few more years. Once someone discovers that the concubine and the eunuch are having an affair, it will be a crime against the Nine Clan!

Cao Wenxi made a movement and suddenly sobered up a lot. Yes, she is the emperor's woman, what does it have to do with her whether he is dead or alive?

"I understand everything you said. But after all, we are old friends and we haven't seen him for many years. It's inevitable to feel a little sad to see him like this now."

Cao Wenxi glanced at the blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine in her hand. She bit the soft flesh in her lip. After thinking about it, she turned around and gave the medicine to Yueran.

"Yueran, you have been following me for several years, so just take it as my request. If you find an opportunity to give these medicines to him, you can repay him for saving me many times in the past."

Seeing Yueran worried and opening her mouth to say something, Cao Wenxi held her hand and tightened it.

"I know everything you want to say, and I can tell the difference between what should be done and what shouldn't be done. Just let me be confused for once, okay?"

Cao Wenxi said so, what else could Yueran say. No matter how much she disagreed, she could only listen to her master.

"Master, it's enough for you to be confused this time. Don't be confused all the time in the future. Some people have to forget even if they cut out their hearts and flesh." "I know, I know everything you said." Cao Wenxi Muttering to herself, she took a step back.

There was light coming in from the window and covering her body, but she couldn't feel any warmth. She turned her back so that Yueran could see her moist eyes.

"You should go out first, I want to be alone."

There seemed to be a slight sigh behind him, followed by the sound of the door opening and closing.

Cao Wenxi fell down on the round mahogany stool beside the table. She thought that she had been prepared for her the last time she saw her outside Qifeng Palace.

But just now they were standing face to face, with such a short distance, even the injuries on his body could be seen clearly. She just realized she couldn't do it.

He was a sin slave, so his life in Yeting Palace was not easy, otherwise he wouldn't have so many injuries. Not to mention forcing him to kneel down in the street and let him slap himself.

Those slaves are the ones who follow the crowd most, and there is no one to help him take care of things, so it is good to be alive.

Why does God play tricks on people like this? She would rather he died than see him like this...

Zhu Ci ordered Cui Lan to find a pair of red pomegranate vases and asked her to wrap them up and send them to Wen Meiren in Weiyang Palace to congratulate her on her pregnancy.

Cui Lan said: "Master, that red pomegranate vase is made of jade. Don't you like it so much that you want to keep it for flower arrangement in winter? It would be a waste to give such a good thing to Wen Meiren, I'm afraid Wen Meiren I won’t think of you well either.”

Zhu Ci has also recently tried to have Cui Lan serve at her side. Cui Lan also knew about the day when she went to Weiyang Palace and was crowded with literary beauties.

Zhuying smiled and said: "If the master asks you to send it, just send it. The master doesn't feel sorry for you, but you can't bear to part with it."

"You can send it to us quickly while it's still early. We'll eat pot tonight, and it won't be your fault if it's late."

Zhu Ci really liked the pair of red pomegranate vases, but she really didn't like Wen Meiren either. But I feel disgusted in my heart, and I have to put in enough effort on the surface to make it hard for people to find fault.

After Cuilan left, Zhuying said: "Actually, I don't understand why the master gave Wen Meiren such a fine vase. Just find someone who can handle it and deal with it."

"Pomegranate means many children and good fortune. Now that the beautiful lady is pregnant, it is just right to give it to her. There is no use for me to keep it anyway."

Zhu Ci smiled and said, "If you give up, you will get something. Aren't they just two vases? There are many good things in the palace, but these two are missing."

Someone seemed to be yelling outside. Zhu Ci turned around and listened carefully for a while. She curled her lips sarcastically.

"The deer lady started scolding again, it was really noisy. I have been hungry for so many days, but I didn't expect to still be so strong."

"That's right. The people from the Shangshi Bureau are all sending cold and sour food. Lu Yunv is used to eating fine clothes, so she must not be surprised. In addition, she has just had a miscarriage, and she doesn't know what's going on with her body. I can handle it.”

Zhuying closed the window, "Slave, please close the door and windows. Don't dirty the master's ears."

"That little thing is almost done."

Zhu Ci walked to the dressing table and took out the hairpin from her hair, "

"Let's let it go tonight."
