Tyrant's First Favorite Concubine

Chapter 187

A few days later in the Prince's Mansion, Yu Li was sitting alone in the gazebo, thinking about the words that had just been passed down from Shahua, that Guan Yunji had already left the imperial capital and returned to his own Zuixin Inn.Except for this sentence, he didn't leave any more words. Perhaps he already understood that she, Yu Li, was no longer the Yu Li who had defected to him at the Zuixin Inn, so, after saving Dongfang Shangyu, he left so neatly.

"Li'er..."

When he turned around, he saw Dongfang Shangyu standing behind him, with a slight smile on his blood-colored face, looking at Yu Li intently.

Yu Li stood up and said, "Why did you come out? The weather is already a little bit chilly, so you have to be careful."

She wanted to help him sit down, but he shook his hand and said, "No need, Li'er, I'm already fine."

He approached her, held her haggard little face with both hands, and said softly: "I heard from Cunfeng that you are the one who takes care of me these days, Li'er, you've lost weight..."

Yu Li smiled, then took his hand away, and said: "Speaking like this seems outlandish, Shangyu, I believe if I had been injured, you would have treated me like this."

Dongfang Shangyu covered her mouth with his fingers, and said: "From now on, I will definitely protect you and not let you suffer any harm."

Such words are so familiar, as if I have heard them somewhere before.

It's Anyun, he once said, from now on, he will not make her suffer a little bit, and will not make her suffer a little bit.

She still clearly remembers what happened now, but...

She lowered her eyes and said: "A lifetime is so long, maybe no one can stay with you until the end."

"Don't you believe it?" Dongfang Shangyu narrowed his eyes, pretending to be disappointed.

Yu Li smiled shallowly, and said: "It's not that I don't believe it, but that I don't need to believe it. Shangyu, have you forgotten that you married me just because of a word from the empress? If there is a day in the future, you will meet someone who really likes you." Girl, at that time, I have already left, how can I fulfill the promise of this life?"

"Leave?" Dongfang Shangyu frowned, "So, you have already planned to leave my life at any time?"

Yu Li looked at him in astonishment, this man used the word "deal" to start their relationship, why now he showed such a sad look?

Dongfang Shangyu sighed secretly in his heart, and asked: "If I keep you, if I never meet the woman who really belongs to me, will you stay with me forever?"

Yu Li was stunned, and said: "No, you are the future king of a country, you have a harem of three thousand, how can you not have a woman who really belongs to you?"

Dongfang Shangyu felt a little uncomfortable. Seeing her busy for himself these few days, watching her running around for him, in his eyes and in his heart, Yu Li was always in his heart, and at this time, how could he let go?Unfortunately……

He hugged her slender body, and asked hoarsely in her ear: "Three thousand women in the harem, any woman in the world is possible, but you are the only one who is unwilling, right?"

Yu Li didn't answer, she didn't know what she should say.She didn't want to hurt Dongfang Shangyu, nor did she want to give him any hope that he shouldn't have.

Her heart was given to Gu Cenya when she was in Ge Ye City, and now even she herself can't do anything about it.

************

On the second day, Dongfang Shangyu and Yu Li entered the palace to pay their respects to Mrs. Zhen. Mrs. Zhen was in a bad condition. It happened that Jin and the princess were in the palace, so they ordered Jinhe to take Yu Li to Changchun Palace to the west of Fengyi Palace for a drink. Tea, while Dongfang Shangyu stayed in Fengyi Palace to talk with Zhen Shi.

After leaving Fengyi Palace, Yu Li seemed to be a little worried, so she pretended to be casual and asked: "Princess, since the queen mother is not feeling well, it's fine to let me go back with Shangyu, why did she still stay in the palace and bother the queen mother so much? Isn't it our fault as children of men?"

Jinhe smiled slightly, and said: "The concubine's sister-in-law is indeed very caring and considerate for others. However, my mother and the elder brother of the prince always like to chat in private, and even I, a daughter, often have to get rid of it! It doesn't matter, let's go to the Changchun Palace, and now all the calendulas I planted last year are in bloom, and now we go to enjoy the chrysanthemums and drink tea, the most comfortable thing."

Yu Li nodded and didn't say much.

Jin He thought that Yu Li was still worried about Zhen Shi's health, so he smiled again: "Don't worry about the concubine and sister-in-law, the queen mother just suffered from the cold, the imperial doctor has already come to see it, it's nothing to worry about."

Just as they were talking, the two of them had already arrived in a palace, and there were several round characters written on the plaque - Changchun Palace.

Changchun Palace is where Jin and Princess live, but in the entire palace, this palace is located in the most remote place, except for the emperor and empress, few people come here on weekdays, it is a quiet place.

"Sister-in-law of the Crown Princess, please—" Jin He stepped aside and invited Yu Li to enter.

Along the way, the court ladies and eunuchs followed, Jinhe seemed a little annoyed, so he asked the little maid who was close to him to make a pot of tea and sent it to the small garden in the palace.

At this time, the garden was full of calendula chrysanthemums, and from a distance, it seemed to be covered with a layer of golden carpet, the aroma was overwhelming and the brilliance was dazzling.

"What a beautiful chrysanthemum!" Yu Li praised sincerely.

Hearing this admiration, Jin He smiled even more intensely, and said, "There were no marigold seedlings in the imperial capital. Last year, the ancient general returned to the imperial capital and brought some to the palace. I want to plant them all." It's..."

It turned out that he sent it in.

Yu Li's heart trembled, but his face was extremely natural, and he said: "Brother is always a careful person, he must know that Jin and the princess love chrysanthemums, so he found them and presented them to the princess."

"No," Jin He said shyly, "I used to like peony, and I don't know much about chrysanthemums, but... General Gu..."

She didn't go on, but the blush on her face was enough to explain everything.Yu Li looked at this simple-minded Jin He, who was somewhat incompatible with this complicated imperial palace. Although she felt unspeakable sadness and pain in her heart, it could only be transformed into a soft sigh. Marriage in this world, It was a coincidence, the fate between her and Gu Cen Ya was over, now that he had Jin He, he wouldn't be left alone for the rest of his life.

Such an ending might be exactly what she hoped for, no matter who was with him in the end, she only hoped that he could live comfortably.

Even if she couldn't let it go, she should let it go.

She smiled and said: "The princess has my brother in her heart, and my brother also has a princess in his heart. In a few days, the princess and my brother will get married. At that time, I don't know whether to call the princess sister or the princess sister-in-law... ..."

Jinhe became even more shy, and said, "Why do you even come to make fun of me?"

As she spoke, she glanced at the lyre placed in the pavilion, and said, "I heard from brother Prince that you play the qin very well, why don't you play a piece?"

Yu Li hesitated a little, but still asked: "What does the princess want to hear?"

Jinhe thought for a while, then said: "My father often invites some palace people to play a piece of music in the palace, but I don't know the name of the piece, it seems to be..."

Jinhe snorted a few times.

When Yu Li heard it, she couldn't help being surprised. This piece was played by her father when she was a child. This piece didn't have a title, but the style of the piece was simple, low and lingering, like crying... such a piece, the palace How can anyone play it?

"Why, haven't you heard of it?" Jinhe showed a hint of disappointment.

Yu Li paused, walked to the side of the piano, and raised her hand to stroke the strings.

Jinhe closed his eyes and listened, Yu Li's playing, compared with those palace people, was more wooden and three-pointed, it really broke the heart of the listener.
