Queen is fearless

Chapter 45 The Romance of the Ancients

The little eunuch hurriedly entered the Longgan Palace. At this moment, the empress had just finished her dinner and was about to go for a walk.

Yuan Bao stood guard at the entrance of the hall, and when he saw someone walking towards this side, he looked flustered, so he glanced into the hall and raised his feet to meet him.

The emperor and the empress have just reconciled, at this moment, no matter what happens, they have to stay back.

"What's the matter? In a panic?" Yuan Bao scolded in a low voice when he came close.

The little eunuch stopped, saw that it was Yuan Bao, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, pleading guilty to him.

"What happened?" Looking back, seeing that the Empress hadn't come out, Yuan Bao pulled the little eunuch up, pulled him aside, and asked.

"Director Huiyuan, Yingchun is gone by Lin Jieyu's side." The little eunuch hurriedly spoke up and reported the matter to Yuanbao.

"Isn't it just that someone died, why are you so panicked? If you disturb Sheng Jia, can you bear it?"

After the little eunuch finished speaking, Yuan Bao frowned, not thinking it was a big deal.

This is the imperial palace, the death of a person is not a big deal, let alone a palace official.

"The manager forgives the crime. I know I was wrong, and I also feel that death is nothing. The problem is that Lin Jieyu made a big fuss. She decided that someone had harmed Yingchun, and she clamored to come to the emperor."

Be careful with him, the little eunuch replied again, after hearing what he said, Yuan Bao frowned even deeper.

He naturally knew who Lin Jieyu was, and also knew the emperor's attitude towards Lin Jieyu.

"Since Lin Jieyu said that someone harmed Yingchun, does she have evidence?" After thinking for a while, Yuan Bao planned to hide this in advance, and wait until he finds out.

"According to my servant, Yingchun may not have been killed by someone. If it is not neat, it is suicide. The person was fished out of the pond, and there are marks on his face."

The little eunuch's heart was full of resentment towards Lin Jieyu. If it wasn't for her, he wouldn't be reprimanded by Director Yuan.

He's just a slave, he dies when he dies, what's the fuss?Do you really regard yourself as the master?
People in the palace are used to praise the high and step down the low. In the past, when Mrs. Lin was still Concubine Lin, everyone naturally respected her.

But now, she is just a Jieyu, and her mother's family has collapsed, so no one will take her seriously.

"Okay, the miscellaneous family knows, since this is the case, you can deal with it as you like. You must not let Lin Jieyu bring the matter to the emperor, at least not today!"

Turning his head again, he glanced at the entrance of the hall, Yuan Bao ordered, and the little eunuch hurriedly responded and left Longgan Palace.

Watching him go, Yuan Bao went back to the entrance of the hall. At this moment, the emperor and empress packed up and walked out of the hall with each other.

Neither of them knew what happened just now.

"I'll take you to a place." Holding Gu Jinzhi's hand, Zhou Jing smiled and said, she nodded submissively, and followed him to the outside of Longgan Palace.

Yuan Bao followed behind, neither far nor near, and the emperor and empress carried each other, bringing their heads together from time to time and saying a few words.

Seeing the empress like this, Yuan Bao's heart was relieved. Before the empress empress had an embarrassment with the emperor, he was really worried.

Seeing the two reconciled now, he felt somewhat happy in his heart.

When the emperor was still the prince, he had been by his side all the time. Although he didn't dare to say that he knew the emperor well, he knew that the emperor was happy when he was with the empress.

He entered the palace when he was only a few years old. Over the years, he has seen a lot of things in the harem. This is a place that eats people but doesn't spit out their bones. There is no real love.

But what is rare is that the empress has true feelings for the emperor. Yuan Bao hopes that the empress will always be well and give birth to the first prince soon.

Compared with the first emperor, the emperor is really a good emperor, but without an emperor's heir, it is always a very serious matter.

Right now the emperor is still young, but how many years will it take?At the time when Bao Buqi was not in order, there would be ministers using this to persecute the emperor. He didn't want to see such a thing.

In Yuan Bao's mind, countless thoughts were spinning. Ahead, Zhou Jing and Gu Jinzhi were chatting casually.

The Empress Dowager and Concubine Xing will be back soon, and Gu Jinzhi went to Shoukang Palace and Ci'an Palace today.

The palaces on both sides had been tidied up a long time ago. She had someone check them carefully, and she would definitely not be able to find any mistakes.

"Although the Empress Dowager is not my biological mother, she has always treated me as if she were her own. Once you meet her, you will know that the Empress Dowager is very easy to get along with."

"It's Concubine Xing. When I was the prince, my father loved Concubine Xing very much. If it wasn't for the empress mother, I'm afraid that I wouldn't be sitting on the throne today."

"You don't have to worry too much. Concubine Xing is a concubine after all. Even if it makes things difficult for you, there is still a queen mother. Or tell me, don't bear the grievance yourself."

Earlier, the emperor had told Gu Jinzhi about the Empress Dowager and Concubine Xing, but now, Gu Jinzhi listened carefully.

"Your Majesty, where are we going?" Gu Jin was curious when he saw that he was walking on the path.

"When you get to the place, you'll know." Zhou Jing smiled mysteriously, and continued walking forward with Gu Jinzhi.

Another half a quarter of an hour later, Gu Jinzhi's eyes suddenly lit up.

There is a lotus pond ahead, and on the path leading to the lotus pond, there are palace people carrying palace lanterns of various colors, illuminating the path that is not considered dark at all.

There was a small boat parked beside the lotus pond, and Zhou Jing took Gu Jinzhi to the small boat.

This lotus pond is the largest in the harem, Gu Jinzhi looked around, the whole lotus pond was surrounded by palace lanterns, very beautiful.

"The emperor..." looked at Zhou Jing with a moved face. With this arrangement, even if it gets dark, the pond will not be too dark, and it has a special flavor.

"Do you like it?" Smiling, Zhou Jing took Gu Jinzhi into his arms, and Zhou Jing asked. Gu Jinzhi, who was in his arms, nodded vigorously.

"I like it very much, thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Jinzhi did not expect that Zhou Jing would have such thoughts. It is rare for an ancient person to be able to create such romance.

It seems that my playing hard to get has achieved excellent results, as expected, people are like this, the best things are those that cannot be obtained easily.

"You sit down, I will row the boat to the center of the pond, the view will be better." Supporting Gu Jinzhi to sit up, Zhou Jing rowed the boat himself, and parked the boat in the center of the pond.

Gu Jinzhi followed what he said and looked around, and he really felt better.

At this moment, the sky is already dark, and the palace lanterns are lit, illuminating the lotus, which is more enjoyable than watching it during the day.

He raised his head again and looked up to the sky. The stars were all over the sky, and his mood became better at this moment.

Zhou Jing came to Gu Jinzhi's side, held her hand, and sat on the boat with her, watching his meticulous arrangements. Both of them had mosquito-proof sachets on their bodies, so they didn't worry about being bitten.

It was hard to prepare so much for the emperor, Gu Jinzhi felt that it was time to pay back, the sky was getting darker, she looked around, whispered a few words in Zhou Jing's ear.

Suddenly, Zhou Jing's eyes lit up...

By the pond, palace lanterns are shining with stars, in the pond, boats are swaying, and spring is blooming...
