Chapter 2285 Six Volumes 340
Seeing that E Nie finished talking with Aunt Wan, Xiao Qi got a chance and quickly got under Wanxi's arms, shaking his head at Wanxi.
Wanxi was a little absent-minded because she was still in love, she didn't see the red dot on Xiaoqi's forehead.
Wanxi only asked, "Xiao Qi, what's wrong with you today, why are you so happy?"
Xiao Qi's face immediately collapsed.
Sitting by the side, Wanbi saw that she understood, but she suppressed a smile and didn't say anything.
After all, Wanxi and Xiaoqi are connected by flesh and blood, and she raised them on her behalf, just helping from the side; she let their mother-in-law communicate with each other by themselves.
Seeing that Aunt Wan was unwilling to help her, Xiaoqi pouted, "...because, because it's almost July. Huang Ama said that Baobao will be five years old in July. You can go back to the palace to study!"
Wanxi was in a trance for a moment, then she returned to her senses and smiled, reaching out to caress Xiaoqi's hair.
"Yeah, it's really fast, Qilin Bao will be five years old."
Concubine Wan also laughed, "I am the one who is most afraid of asking children's ages, and if I ask, I will make myself look old."
Wanxi nodded with a smile, "The children of Jiuye's family have grown up one by one, and they are also successful. Even Fuling's girl's family is also born smart. Yongxing is in front of me, yesterday Still talking about it."
Concubine Wan smiled and nodded, "Yong Xing moved to Concubine Shu's Palace to grow up later. From Concubine Shu's point of view, Mr. Fu is both Yong Xing's uncle and Yong Xing's uncle, so he and Fu Ling are fairly close." It's a cousin."
.
Xiao Qi is about to die...
Obviously Ernie was already caressing her hair, and there was only a little distance between her eyes and the red spot on her forehead.But Er Nie went to Baobao's side again.
Lawang originally played with Yonglu outside, and helped Yonglu climb onto Aslan's back for a ride, while he supported Yonglu's shoulders, being careful not to let Yonglu fall off.It's just that even though he is so cautious, he still can't help but look towards Xiao Qi from time to time.
After all, he still made a look at Cricket, telling Cricket to come forward and support Yong Lu.
He turned around and ran into the inner room, ran in front of Wanxi, pointed at Xiao Qi's forehead, "...Auntie, look, is Xiao Qi stuck here?"
.
This sentence worked, Wanxi really stopped all other topics, turned her eyes back quickly, and fixed her eyes on her daughter's forehead.
Xiaoqi then laughed, giggling.
Xiao Qi looked back at Lawang sweetly, blinking and chuckling.
The hands of the two children couldn't help but pull together, Guiguidao bowed his head and smiled.
Wanxi stretched out her hand to touch it, and then she felt relieved, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "...Princess Shouyang, with plum blossoms falling between her brows, there is 'plum blossom makeup' in the world; our princess of the Qing Dynasty really does not give up too much. Woolen cloth."
Wanpin laughed and clapped her hands, "No!"
Although Xiaoqi didn't understand the allusions, he understood the "plum blossom makeup", so he raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly, "How did Ernie know it all at once, it's a flower?"
It was her Huang Ama, who said at the beginning, "Go to Tianzhu girl a little bit".
Wanxi lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, "In this way, you really have flowers here?"
Xiao Qiqiao smiled sweetly, "Ernie, do I look good?"
With Xiao Qi acting like a baby, Wanxi couldn't care less about the worries in her heart, she nodded with a smile, "Pretty, my Xiao Qi is the prettiest."
Xiao Qiai showed off her prettiness, "... Huang Ama ordered it for me!"
Wanxi smiled and nodded, "I see it too. You are the princess of the Qing Dynasty, the treasure held in the palm of your Huang Ama, who else would dare to just use a red pen on your forehead to make it red?" ?”
Xiaoqi smiled happily, "Huang Ama also said that I am good-looking...Huang Ama also said that among the three children of Enie, I am the one who resembles Enie the most~~"
Wanxi's face turned red, and she glanced shyly at Wanpin.
Wanbi laughed, "Your majesty, too, if you say you look good, just say it, and you still go around our Xiaoqi, look at such oblique actions~"
Wanxi quickly laughed at herself, "Perhaps because of his youth, Xiaoqian looked good for so many years. But now his face is full of wrinkles, how dare he say he looks good."
.
Wanxi and Wanbi tried their best to explain, but Lawang just stared at Xiaoqi.
The emperor took Xiaoqi to "Jiuzhou Qingyan" these few days, but it was inconvenient to take him with him.After all, it is a place where politics is discussed, and the princess can come in and out freely; even if he is a small son-in-law, he is still a foreign minister and cannot enter casually.So today he only saw Xiao Qi after a few days, so he forgot to blink when he saw it.
Lawang tilted his head and looked at Xiaoqi, and suddenly said, "Aunt Ling is right, not just anyone can give some cinnabar between the eyebrows. In temples, only eminent monks can give people red spots on the center of the eyebrows." .”
Xiaoqi looked back at Lawang with a smile, "Oh? Is there redness between the brows of the eminent monk?"
Lawang took Xiaoqi's hand, and the two ran to the small Buddhist hall in Dongnuange together, and pointed to the Buddha statue on it to Xiaoqi, "Look, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have such red spots between their eyebrows!"
Wanxi was supported by Yuchan, she and Wanbi smiled and walked over slowly together.
In front of the Buddha statue, Lawang held Xiaoqi's hand, his eyes were deep, "...Xiaoqi has become popular, and I will also be popular tomorrow!"
Xiaoqi laughed, clapped her hands, her face was full of beauty, "But Er Nie said that it was the princess's 'plum blossom makeup'. Wangwang also became popular, so wouldn't Wangwang also want to be a princess?"
Lawang shook his head with a smile, pointed back at the Buddha statue, "Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have such a little red between their eyebrows, I am Lawang Dorje, and Dorje is the 'Vajra', the Dharma protector next to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas; Dzogchen practitioners who have received the 'Lawang Empowerment'... so I can also follow the Buddhist rules and blushing."
As Lawang said, he took Xiao Qi's hand, went to the side of the ink box and lit some, took her hand, and tapped it between his eyebrows.
Lawang stood with a smile, his eyes only sank, fixed on Xiaoqi, "...with this auspicious cinnabar mole, you can bless me, see through all the falsehoods in the world, and see all three lives."
.
Although they are two children, after all, they are two children whose status has been determined in advance, so Wanxi and Wanbi just looked at each other and smiled from outside the threshold.
It's a little early, but everyone is happy to see it come true, isn't it?
If it wasn't for them to be like this when they were childhood sweethearts, why bother to ask Lawang to be sent to the inner court to be raised at the age of two~
Wanxi didn't go in, sighed lightly, and murmured to Wanbi, "...Sister Chen, I don't feel old; I just regret that my childhood was wasted."
Concubine Wan understood and smiled, "No way. Look at two of them, one is three years old and the other is five years old, they can look at each other with such eyes and speak with such accents. Let's, At this age, I’m afraid I’m still just a baby.”
.
The two were talking, and when they raised their eyes, they saw that Yu Rui had come back from afar.
Wanxi hurriedly stopped talking, and she was about to run to the gate of the hall.Yuchan and Wanbi hurriedly helped each other from left to right.
Yuqin and Concubine Ying walked in the door first, and when they saw Wanxi's expression, they understood each other and smiled at each other.
Yuqin came forward to hold Wanxi's elbow, "You, don't worry. Yurui is not as fragile as you think, besides, there are us two!"
While talking, Yurui also walked in the door, hurriedly went up to greet Wanxi.
Wanxi hurriedly pulled her back, pulled her over, and hugged Yurui's shoulders.
"...Are you okay? They didn't say anything bad and beat you, right?"
Yu Rui glanced at her pale complexion in front of everyone in "Tiandi Family Spring", and smiled playfully at Wanxi, "Master, don't worry, I've bluffed them all!"
.
For a while, the sisters supported each other, talked and laughed, and walked back to the warm pavilion on the west side. They sat down on the two kangs in the north and south, and talked to each other.
Yurui is the same Yurui from the past again, with quick hands and feet, and bright smile.
It's just that she's still not used to being seated by Yuqin and the others, she really didn't dare to sit on the edge of the kang side by side with the former masters, so she had to struggle to get up and barely sat on the kang Step on the red sandalwood feet on the side.
"Masters, please spare the servants. What are you doing? When the slaves are with the masters, when they are together with the masters, they will not dare to be called sisters. It is better to let the slaves sit like this, so that the slaves can be more stable. "
Yuqin spat at her with a smile, "Don't say that your master is worried about you, which one of us didn't get fooled by you before? Thanks to your good acting, you even fooled us all. Seriously." I'm going to beat you up."
Concubine Ying also laughed, "That's right. Anyway, it's important to make my sister pregnant at this moment. You suddenly accepted your favor at this moment. How can we allow you to go?"
Yu Rui didn't dare to speak, but turned to look at Wan Xi.
Wanxi sighed softly, "In retrospect, she and the emperor chose this month to 'make monsters', but they chose it carefully. I am six months old now, and I have the best body and the most fetal gas. When it's stable."
"If it's too early, it won't work, and the pregnancy will not be stable; if it's too late, it will eventually give birth."
Feeling relieved, Yu Rui nodded with a smile, "... And, the emperor will go to the autumn festival in July. If you don't 'make a monster' this time, there will be no time."
.
At this moment, everything has been said, but when I look back, it's just like a joke.But looking back at that time, it also makes people feel strange and frightened.
Yuqin snorted, "Why don't you say that your play is really good! The day I found out about the letter, I was worried that your master is pregnant with a child, and you are good-natured, so I couldn't bear to reject you; I I couldn't swallow this breath for her, and when I rushed over to interrogate you, you were still pale in front of me alone!"
"What I know is that you have three layers of makeup powder on your face; what I don't know, I really feel that you are guilty, and you can't hide it on your face."
Yu Rui's smile was a bit bitter, she raised her eyes to look at Wan Xi, her lips pursed, as if she had something to say.
But Wanxi pressed her shoulders, shook her head with a smile, "...No, she used up all the makeup powder in her monthly routine in the first three days. I gave her my makeup powder, anyway, I was pregnant. The body is also inconvenient to wear makeup."
"But this lady is good, and she ran out of it within a few days. I would like to ask for help for her and the sisters. Who of you still has makeup powder left in your dowry? It doesn't need to be good. It used to be Just use what’s left, and give us some. After all, it’s all applied to the face layer by layer, just like painting a wall, and the good ones are ruined instead!”
When Jiao Wanxi said this, several people burst out laughing.
Wanpin and the others are not people who like to wear heavy makeup, so there is naturally some makeup powder left in the case; but they still have to deliberately tease Yu Rui.
Yuqin said, "I don't have makeup powder or anything. But there is still a jar of wheat flour. If Yurui doesn't mind, let's use it!"
"Anyway, Yurui is also used to paint a wall, so when you use wheat flour, the effect is the same!"
Concubine Ying laughed, "But I'm afraid of sweating or something, the wheat flour on my face has turned into a paste. It's still summer in June, why should I be busy preparing the paste so early in the morning?" Son, is this going to sneak through the window ahead of time?"
In the past, outside the Northeast Pass, including in the capital at this time, because of the cold weather, paper strips and cloth strips were used to seal the windows in winter.
The women in the family use wheat flour to make the paste, and it has always been one of the tests of the women in charge to make the paste thick and suitable.If the paste is thin, the windows will not be able to slit; if the paste is thick, wheat flour will be wasted, which will affect the family's rations... Therefore, the appropriate measure is very challenging.
Wanxi clapped her hands and laughed, "Sister Lu is the best at housekeeping. It's only June, and it's estimated that there will be some wheat flour for making paste in the palace this year; this is naturally the amount needed for making paste. It's clear!"
Wanxi said, winking mischievously at the rest of the people, "Who said that sister Lu is a Han girl from the south of the Yangtze River? Look, since my mother's family was ordered to enter the flag, not only the buns under the banner will do it; Now I'm good at making paste. This is completely the Fujin under its banner!"
Yuqin was so ashamed that she got up and ran over, raising her hand as if to pinch Wanxi's face.
"Look how protective you are! I figured it out, you're protecting Yurui, even me!"
Concubine Wan and Concubine Ying both laughed, stepped forward one by one, and pulled Wanxi and Yuqin away.
Only then did Yu Rui quietly breathe a sigh of relief, quietly looked at Wanxi, and finally smiled in relief.
.
They each sat back, and Concubine Wan only asked Yu Rui with a smile, "It's useless for you to bear such a big grievance, but you really hid us all. It's your master, and I'm afraid it was early in the morning. Before I could speak clearly, I was shocked for a bit."
Yu Rui sat on the red sandalwood footrest, although she was half a body shorter than the others, she raised her head high and proudly.
"...This year, it is said that Concubine Yu will be promoted to Noble Concubine. If Concubine Yu can be promoted, then the position of Noble Concubine will be full, and our master will have no chance to be promoted again."
"Our master is good-natured and indifferent, so he doesn't bother to argue with her. But since the slave has served the master for a while, how can he bear to watch the master suffer from this dumb loss?"
"Even if the master doesn't fight for himself, the slave will fight for the master; even if it's not for the master, he has to go for our fourteenth brother!"
Yurui took a deep breath, raised her eyes to focus on Wanxi, "...the imperial concubine, when Concubine Shu gave birth to a child, the emperor didn't give her a promotion, just to keep it for you, master! The emperor managed to keep it for so many years , the slave can’t be called Concubine Yu just snatched away like this!”
Wanxi sighed softly, "You silly girl, you fight for me like this, but what you have to pay is your whole life..."
Yu Rui lowered her eyes lightly, "The master is already in the concubine position at this time, and if you go up, there are only two positions, the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine. But if there is a queen, the imperial concubine will not be sealed alive, so the master will return to the imperial concubine in the future." The only one who can be promoted is this noble concubine."
"It's different from those positions in the past. When the master reaches this point, he is doomed to be ten times or a hundred times more difficult to go up. Not to mention the empress dowager, after all, there are still so many ancestors' family laws lying in front of her." there."
"In the history of the Qing Dynasty, there has never been a woman with the Han surname in Xin Zheku who can rise to the position of concubine... But it is rare for the emperor to have such a heart for the master, so the slave has to guard it for the master! At this time, the master has With the emperor's heir in his body, it is inappropriate to disturb the mind, so the slave should naturally share the worries of the master."
Wanbi nodded movedly, but still sighed, "I'm afraid that even if you can take care of your master to such an extent, the empress dowager will not be easy to pass."
"After all, when the harem is enfeoffed, the empress dowager's decree has always been followed. The empress dowager's gold treasure must be stamped on the canonized edict, and this canonization is counted. If the empress dowager does not use the treasure, the emperor will not be able to issue a decree alone... If Without a canon, it is giving you the treatment of a noble concubine, and it is still not justified."
"At this time, there is still Concubine Shu in the position of concubine; below the position of concubine, there are at least Lan nobles from the empress dowager's family. Why doesn't the empress dowager want to leave this imperial concubine to the nobles of the Manchu family? Therefore, Really, unless the emperor resorts to extraordinary actions, the empress dowager will not waver at all."
Wanxi nodded and smiled lightly, "Whether this method can shake the Empress Dowager's heart or not, at least I know that the Emperor and Yurui are willing to do this for me. Then this kind of heart is compared to that noble concubine's position." It is even more precious. In my heart, it is already a blessing."
Yuqin sighed, "...No. If the empress dowager has already nodded, the emperor must have issued a decree to enter Feng Wanxi this time along with the nobleman who bestowed Yi and Guo Changzai. But the emperor did not By decree, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry did not move to make gold books, gold treasures, etc., that is to say, the Empress Dowager still has not fully nodded."
Concubine Ying was more optimistic, "Sisters, don't be pessimistic. Maybe when your sister Ling's child is born, as long as she is still a prince, the emperor can take advantage of the situation and enfeoff your sister!"
Wanxi herself smiled lightly, and raised her hand to scratch the tip of Concubine Ying's nose, "Silly girl. Who said that if I can give birth, it must be the prince?"
.
At noon, Xiao Qi and Yong Lu were both tired.Wanpin and Yuqin leave with their children.
Yurui personally sent off several hostesses, came back and knelt in front of Wanxi, still wanting to say something.
Wanxi still shook her head and said with a smile, "Forget it. You don't need to say these words anymore. After all, I have a steelyard in my heart."
At this moment, Liu Zhu'er sneaked in sneakily, knelt down and replied, "Master, the emperor ordered me to use lotus seed soup."
It's the height of summer in June, so it's time to use some lotus seed soup.
Wanxi snorted softly, "The emperor used lotus seed soup, why did you report it to you? Could it be that the emperor has not forgotten that you came out of the imperial dining room, so why can't you make it yourself?"
Liu Zhu'er's cheeks turned red, "...Master is right."
Wanxi couldn't help beating the kang and laughing, "Okay, this master!"
Playing tricks again? !
Wanxi wasn't bothered, she raised her head slightly, and snorted, "What's the problem if I tell you to do it? I'll borrow you out right now. You go off to the island alone and go back to the imperial dining room." Come back after serving."
"After all, it's better not to have the emperor go to the island in person."
Liu Zhu'er raised her head with a look of embarrassment on her face, "...the master is wise. However, the emperor said that not only should the slaves do it by themselves, but the lotus seeds must be grown in the lotus pond on our island."
.
Wanxi smiled helplessly, "...I thought to myself, if I want to say that if I ask someone to pick the lotus seeds from our lotus pond and send them out, the emperor will have to add another sentence, 'We still need to use the stove on our island, the stove on our island, The pot' up, isn't it?"
Liu Zhu'er couldn't help laughing, "My master is so powerful. The emperor really said this~"
Wanxi smiled and shook her head, leaning on the cushion with her elbows and her forehead with her fingertips, she thought about it.
"Forget it, hand it over to the eunuch on the boat, and say that you can send the emperor over; but after a quarter of an hour, you have to come back to pick up the emperor."
Liu Zhu'er opened his mouth wide, "Just a quarter of an hour?"
Wanxi snorted softly, "Only in this way, can the outsiders think that although I gave way half a step, I dare not break the rules of the monarch and ministers; but my heart, I haven't forgiven the emperor yet. If so, it's not in vain It has paid off the painstaking efforts of the emperor and Yurui."
Yu Rui was slightly startled, and hastily squatted down to leave, "...ask Yuchan and Yuying to serve, and the slave will leave."
Wanxi sighed softly, "Silly girl. From now on, you will stay in the palace for the rest of your life, so how can you avoid seeing the emperor forever? If you stay, we are still us, what should we say?" Just say whatever you want."
.
Although Wanxi didn't want to embarrass Yurui, but the emperor rushed in excitedly. Seeing Yurui and Yuchan squatting behind Wanxi to pay their respects, the emperor raised his hand, "You all go down. I think Talk to your master alone."
Wanxi couldn't bear it anymore, she quickly stretched out her hand to grab Yurui, "Yurui's identity is different from Yuchan and the others at this time. The emperor asked the servants to go down, but Yurui was not included."
The emperor narrowed his eyes and stared at Wanxi, "Gao Yuncong, the fan fruit in the eight treasures box I ate at lunch, I said that the eight flavors are delicious..."
Gao Yun was sensible, and fell to his knees, "The emperor said that the fruit was just off the boat of the Hongmao people in Guangzhou and sent to the capital. I am afraid that the young master Yurui has never tasted it, so I will give it to you." The eight items in the eight treasures box were all rewarded to the little master Yurui."
"Your servant remembers all of them, they have already brought them together."
The emperor snorted softly, "Aren't you going to serve you, little master Yurui?"
Since the emperor had a reward, Wanxi couldn't stop her, she pursed her lips and smiled, and let go.Low and Yurui said, "Try it and see if it tastes good. If there is something that is not too cold, it will be easier for me to move my mouth now, so leave me two to taste."
Yu Rui just went down.
Wanxi glanced at the emperor, "...the emperor came well prepared."
The emperor spat, "I know you can't wipe it off your face! If you don't prepare, you should feel ashamed and flustered in your heart!"
Wanxi pouted, ignored the emperor, turned around, stepped on the pedals, lifted her robes to the left and right, and sat down on the kang.
She herself has a big belly, and today she is wearing an ivory-colored plain gauze gown, so she slowly moves up the kang, her shadow falls on the window glass, she really looks like a big female silkworm.
"Does the master know? Then the master and Yu Rui conspired in private, and secretly arranged this matter behind my back? You kept me in the dark!"
The emperor had long legs and big strides, and he caught up with him in two steps, and he was already sitting next to Wanxi.
"If I told you in advance, would you agree? You must have refused to protect Yurui."
"Maybe, before the master makes arrangements, you should have found a reason to release Yurui out of the palace in private!"
Wanxi sighed, "Anyway, it's too late to say anything at this moment... I just feel sorry for Yurui."
The emperor reached out and took Wanxi's hand.
"...She is not wronged. People who are wronged in their hearts can't stay in the palace; the master has to make her stay in the palace willingly, so that she can accompany you for the rest of her life without complaint."
.
Wanxi's heart moved quietly.
Yurui's hesitation to speak... She was not unaware of it.
Besides, the matter of makeup powder does not include the appearance she saw when she first bumped into Yu Rui's face when she opened the curtain in the early morning of June [-]th.
That morning, Yurui was real and pale.
She felt in her heart that there might be something else going on here—but, after all, Yurui did this for her sake, so she didn't want to pursue it further; she didn't want to put Yurui's sad things on Yuqin again. They opened up in front of them.
Yurui is a girl, and she has to protect Yurui's heart.
When the emperor saw that her eyes were black and white, he coughed in embarrassment.
"...Well, when I arrived at Yongqi's place that day, I saw Yurui drinking alcohol. Yurui got out of the car on the way, and when I came back, I was already drunk, so she came to my carriage by mistake."
"I could have asked the guards to separate her, but I still asked her to come in my carriage that day."
Wanxi let out a breath, "The emperor did it on purpose!"
The emperor was blushing, and coughed softly, "Yes. I know her intentions, and I also understand your friendship for her. Therefore, if I use her for nothing, and waste her youth for nothing, your heart will be gone." I'm uncomfortable, and my father's heart is not stable."
"That's why I...cough cough, Yurui was drunk and couldn't help herself. When she rushed to hug me, I didn't push her away..."
Wanxi was stunned, not knowing what expression to use.
The emperor raised his sleeve and pressed his forehead, "Master sacrificed half of his cheek and asked her to give it a kiss... From then on, she felt ashamed, even if she stayed in the palace with you, she would be willing."
.
Wanxi couldn't help laughing, "...so the movement in the carriage was just Yurui kissing the emperor on the cheek?"
The emperor frowned, "It's really full of people. Once drunk, it's really energetic. The master had to fight all over the place to stop her."
Wanxi really didn't know whether to laugh or sigh.
"Yu Rui was drunk, and finally had the opportunity to be alone with the emperor. When he couldn't help himself, the emperor pushed her away? Master, you——do not pity her."
The emperor snorted softly, "I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid that someone will feed me grass soaked in Coptis chinensis."
Wanxi laughed with a "puchier", but followed closely, tears rolling down.
"But Yurui, just because of this, she has to spend her whole life staying in the palace... This silly girl, I'm not worth it for her."
"It's a pity that she was pale and uncomfortable in front of me that morning, but she took on such a big reputation just for a moment. She really deserves to die."
The emperor stretched out his hand to hold Wanxi, "You two are deeply in love. She was drunk and thought it was a dream; she woke up in the enclosure at night and realized it was true. She was going to die of regret at that moment gone."
"Therefore, there is no need for me to say anything, she has already understood my intention - she is a smart girl, and she knows that if I have no other arrangements, she will definitely not ask her to get into my carriage."
.
Outside the window, in the side hall, Yurui is chewing the fan fruit that the emperor gave him.
The mouth is sweet, but the eyes are sour with tears.
She recalled that on the morning of June [-]th, the emperor would get up before dawn to handle state affairs.She rushed from the enclosure into the bright room of the emperor's bedroom in a panic, and kowtowed to the emperor to plead guilty.
The emperor stared at her lightly, "Yu Rui, did you sleep well? Did you fully wake up from the dream last night?"
She nodded with tears in her eyes, "The servant is awake."
The emperor nodded, "Just wake up. You have been by your master's side for more than ten years. If I like you, I won't wait until today. But after waiting until today, you should understand in your heart-I have no love for you between men and women." .”
"Now that things are up to now, I'm not afraid to tell you something plain: the request letter for you to leave the palace was reported to me last year, but I withheld it and didn't send it out."
"Yongshou Palace cannot live without you, but there are palace rules in the palace. Official women can leave the palace at the age of 25. No matter how late, they can only stay until they are around 30 years old. It is because the chief of the inner court is deeply attached to the women. , I don’t want to let go anymore, and I don’t dare to force you to stay. Therefore, if you don’t leave this year, you will leave sooner or later next year or the year after next.”
The emperor's eyes turned faintly in the unknown sky.
"Unless...the officials and women voluntarily stay in the palace and never go out again for the rest of their lives."
.
At that moment, Yurui knew that she had smiled, and felt relieved.
In her "dream", she finally had the courage to hug the emperor and kiss her; but the emperor, seeing that she was so drunk, actually carried her back to Jiuzhou Qingyan... Her future has actually been decided.
Outsiders will never know that she only pecked the emperor's face once in the carriage; that night when she stayed on Qingyan Island in Jiuzhou, she was just dreaming alone in the enclosure.
When I woke up from the dream, everything was still the same.
However, she was already content.After all, she once slept in the emperor's bedroom for one night, after all, she once rode in a carriage with the emperor, after all... even though it was regarded as a dream, she still stole a piece of incense from the emperor.
For her, this life is already the most fulfilling dream.
It is a blessing to have such a dream in my life.
Therefore, even though the corners of her eyes were a little wet, she still knelt down to the emperor with a clear heart, "...I beg the emperor for grace, I am willing to stay in the palace and serve my master all my life."
The emperor smiled, took a step forward, reached out to her, and pulled her up himself.
"...Since you are willing to stay, I will not wrong you. I will give you a place, and I will not call you an official woman again."
"Besides, your uncle is the official secretary of the Ministry of Rites at this time, and your Ama is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. If I seal you up, I won't wrong your family."

(End of this chapter)
Seeing that E Nie finished talking with Aunt Wan, Xiao Qi got a chance and quickly got under Wanxi's arms, shaking his head at Wanxi.
Wanxi was a little absent-minded because she was still in love, she didn't see the red dot on Xiaoqi's forehead.
Wanxi only asked, "Xiao Qi, what's wrong with you today, why are you so happy?"
Xiao Qi's face immediately collapsed.
Sitting by the side, Wanbi saw that she understood, but she suppressed a smile and didn't say anything.
After all, Wanxi and Xiaoqi are connected by flesh and blood, and she raised them on her behalf, just helping from the side; she let their mother-in-law communicate with each other by themselves.
Seeing that Aunt Wan was unwilling to help her, Xiaoqi pouted, "...because, because it's almost July. Huang Ama said that Baobao will be five years old in July. You can go back to the palace to study!"
Wanxi was in a trance for a moment, then she returned to her senses and smiled, reaching out to caress Xiaoqi's hair.
"Yeah, it's really fast, Qilin Bao will be five years old."
Concubine Wan also laughed, "I am the one who is most afraid of asking children's ages, and if I ask, I will make myself look old."
Wanxi nodded with a smile, "The children of Jiuye's family have grown up one by one, and they are also successful. Even Fuling's girl's family is also born smart. Yongxing is in front of me, yesterday Still talking about it."
Concubine Wan smiled and nodded, "Yong Xing moved to Concubine Shu's Palace to grow up later. From Concubine Shu's point of view, Mr. Fu is both Yong Xing's uncle and Yong Xing's uncle, so he and Fu Ling are fairly close." It's a cousin."
.
Xiao Qi is about to die...
Obviously Ernie was already caressing her hair, and there was only a little distance between her eyes and the red spot on her forehead.But Er Nie went to Baobao's side again.
Lawang originally played with Yonglu outside, and helped Yonglu climb onto Aslan's back for a ride, while he supported Yonglu's shoulders, being careful not to let Yonglu fall off.It's just that even though he is so cautious, he still can't help but look towards Xiao Qi from time to time.
After all, he still made a look at Cricket, telling Cricket to come forward and support Yong Lu.
He turned around and ran into the inner room, ran in front of Wanxi, pointed at Xiao Qi's forehead, "...Auntie, look, is Xiao Qi stuck here?"
.
This sentence worked, Wanxi really stopped all other topics, turned her eyes back quickly, and fixed her eyes on her daughter's forehead.
Xiaoqi then laughed, giggling.
Xiao Qi looked back at Lawang sweetly, blinking and chuckling.
The hands of the two children couldn't help but pull together, Guiguidao bowed his head and smiled.
Wanxi stretched out her hand to touch it, and then she felt relieved, and raised her eyebrows slightly, "...Princess Shouyang, with plum blossoms falling between her brows, there is 'plum blossom makeup' in the world; our princess of the Qing Dynasty really does not give up too much. Woolen cloth."
Wanpin laughed and clapped her hands, "No!"
Although Xiaoqi didn't understand the allusions, he understood the "plum blossom makeup", so he raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly, "How did Ernie know it all at once, it's a flower?"
It was her Huang Ama, who said at the beginning, "Go to Tianzhu girl a little bit".
Wanxi lowered her eyes and smiled lightly, "In this way, you really have flowers here?"
Xiao Qiqiao smiled sweetly, "Ernie, do I look good?"
With Xiao Qi acting like a baby, Wanxi couldn't care less about the worries in her heart, she nodded with a smile, "Pretty, my Xiao Qi is the prettiest."
Xiao Qiai showed off her prettiness, "... Huang Ama ordered it for me!"
Wanxi smiled and nodded, "I see it too. You are the princess of the Qing Dynasty, the treasure held in the palm of your Huang Ama, who else would dare to just use a red pen on your forehead to make it red?" ?”
Xiaoqi smiled happily, "Huang Ama also said that I am good-looking...Huang Ama also said that among the three children of Enie, I am the one who resembles Enie the most~~"
Wanxi's face turned red, and she glanced shyly at Wanpin.
Wanbi laughed, "Your majesty, too, if you say you look good, just say it, and you still go around our Xiaoqi, look at such oblique actions~"
Wanxi quickly laughed at herself, "Perhaps because of his youth, Xiaoqian looked good for so many years. But now his face is full of wrinkles, how dare he say he looks good."
.
Wanxi and Wanbi tried their best to explain, but Lawang just stared at Xiaoqi.
The emperor took Xiaoqi to "Jiuzhou Qingyan" these few days, but it was inconvenient to take him with him.After all, it is a place where politics is discussed, and the princess can come in and out freely; even if he is a small son-in-law, he is still a foreign minister and cannot enter casually.So today he only saw Xiao Qi after a few days, so he forgot to blink when he saw it.
Lawang tilted his head and looked at Xiaoqi, and suddenly said, "Aunt Ling is right, not just anyone can give some cinnabar between the eyebrows. In temples, only eminent monks can give people red spots on the center of the eyebrows." .”
Xiaoqi looked back at Lawang with a smile, "Oh? Is there redness between the brows of the eminent monk?"
Lawang took Xiaoqi's hand, and the two ran to the small Buddhist hall in Dongnuange together, and pointed to the Buddha statue on it to Xiaoqi, "Look, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have such red spots between their eyebrows!"
Wanxi was supported by Yuchan, she and Wanbi smiled and walked over slowly together.
In front of the Buddha statue, Lawang held Xiaoqi's hand, his eyes were deep, "...Xiaoqi has become popular, and I will also be popular tomorrow!"
Xiaoqi laughed, clapped her hands, her face was full of beauty, "But Er Nie said that it was the princess's 'plum blossom makeup'. Wangwang also became popular, so wouldn't Wangwang also want to be a princess?"
Lawang shook his head with a smile, pointed back at the Buddha statue, "Buddhas and Bodhisattvas have such a little red between their eyebrows, I am Lawang Dorje, and Dorje is the 'Vajra', the Dharma protector next to Buddhas and Bodhisattvas; Dzogchen practitioners who have received the 'Lawang Empowerment'... so I can also follow the Buddhist rules and blushing."
As Lawang said, he took Xiao Qi's hand, went to the side of the ink box and lit some, took her hand, and tapped it between his eyebrows.
Lawang stood with a smile, his eyes only sank, fixed on Xiaoqi, "...with this auspicious cinnabar mole, you can bless me, see through all the falsehoods in the world, and see all three lives."
.
Although they are two children, after all, they are two children whose status has been determined in advance, so Wanxi and Wanbi just looked at each other and smiled from outside the threshold.
It's a little early, but everyone is happy to see it come true, isn't it?
If it wasn't for them to be like this when they were childhood sweethearts, why bother to ask Lawang to be sent to the inner court to be raised at the age of two~
Wanxi didn't go in, sighed lightly, and murmured to Wanbi, "...Sister Chen, I don't feel old; I just regret that my childhood was wasted."
Concubine Wan understood and smiled, "No way. Look at two of them, one is three years old and the other is five years old, they can look at each other with such eyes and speak with such accents. Let's, At this age, I’m afraid I’m still just a baby.”
.
The two were talking, and when they raised their eyes, they saw that Yu Rui had come back from afar.
Wanxi hurriedly stopped talking, and she was about to run to the gate of the hall.Yuchan and Wanbi hurriedly helped each other from left to right.
Yuqin and Concubine Ying walked in the door first, and when they saw Wanxi's expression, they understood each other and smiled at each other.
Yuqin came forward to hold Wanxi's elbow, "You, don't worry. Yurui is not as fragile as you think, besides, there are us two!"
While talking, Yurui also walked in the door, hurriedly went up to greet Wanxi.
Wanxi hurriedly pulled her back, pulled her over, and hugged Yurui's shoulders.
"...Are you okay? They didn't say anything bad and beat you, right?"
Yu Rui glanced at her pale complexion in front of everyone in "Tiandi Family Spring", and smiled playfully at Wanxi, "Master, don't worry, I've bluffed them all!"
.
For a while, the sisters supported each other, talked and laughed, and walked back to the warm pavilion on the west side. They sat down on the two kangs in the north and south, and talked to each other.
Yurui is the same Yurui from the past again, with quick hands and feet, and bright smile.
It's just that she's still not used to being seated by Yuqin and the others, she really didn't dare to sit on the edge of the kang side by side with the former masters, so she had to struggle to get up and barely sat on the kang Step on the red sandalwood feet on the side.
"Masters, please spare the servants. What are you doing? When the slaves are with the masters, when they are together with the masters, they will not dare to be called sisters. It is better to let the slaves sit like this, so that the slaves can be more stable. "
Yuqin spat at her with a smile, "Don't say that your master is worried about you, which one of us didn't get fooled by you before? Thanks to your good acting, you even fooled us all. Seriously." I'm going to beat you up."
Concubine Ying also laughed, "That's right. Anyway, it's important to make my sister pregnant at this moment. You suddenly accepted your favor at this moment. How can we allow you to go?"
Yu Rui didn't dare to speak, but turned to look at Wan Xi.
Wanxi sighed softly, "In retrospect, she and the emperor chose this month to 'make monsters', but they chose it carefully. I am six months old now, and I have the best body and the most fetal gas. When it's stable."
"If it's too early, it won't work, and the pregnancy will not be stable; if it's too late, it will eventually give birth."
Feeling relieved, Yu Rui nodded with a smile, "... And, the emperor will go to the autumn festival in July. If you don't 'make a monster' this time, there will be no time."
.
At this moment, everything has been said, but when I look back, it's just like a joke.But looking back at that time, it also makes people feel strange and frightened.
Yuqin snorted, "Why don't you say that your play is really good! The day I found out about the letter, I was worried that your master is pregnant with a child, and you are good-natured, so I couldn't bear to reject you; I I couldn't swallow this breath for her, and when I rushed over to interrogate you, you were still pale in front of me alone!"
"What I know is that you have three layers of makeup powder on your face; what I don't know, I really feel that you are guilty, and you can't hide it on your face."
Yu Rui's smile was a bit bitter, she raised her eyes to look at Wan Xi, her lips pursed, as if she had something to say.
But Wanxi pressed her shoulders, shook her head with a smile, "...No, she used up all the makeup powder in her monthly routine in the first three days. I gave her my makeup powder, anyway, I was pregnant. The body is also inconvenient to wear makeup."
"But this lady is good, and she ran out of it within a few days. I would like to ask for help for her and the sisters. Who of you still has makeup powder left in your dowry? It doesn't need to be good. It used to be Just use what’s left, and give us some. After all, it’s all applied to the face layer by layer, just like painting a wall, and the good ones are ruined instead!”
When Jiao Wanxi said this, several people burst out laughing.
Wanpin and the others are not people who like to wear heavy makeup, so there is naturally some makeup powder left in the case; but they still have to deliberately tease Yu Rui.
Yuqin said, "I don't have makeup powder or anything. But there is still a jar of wheat flour. If Yurui doesn't mind, let's use it!"
"Anyway, Yurui is also used to paint a wall, so when you use wheat flour, the effect is the same!"
Concubine Ying laughed, "But I'm afraid of sweating or something, the wheat flour on my face has turned into a paste. It's still summer in June, why should I be busy preparing the paste so early in the morning?" Son, is this going to sneak through the window ahead of time?"
In the past, outside the Northeast Pass, including in the capital at this time, because of the cold weather, paper strips and cloth strips were used to seal the windows in winter.
The women in the family use wheat flour to make the paste, and it has always been one of the tests of the women in charge to make the paste thick and suitable.If the paste is thin, the windows will not be able to slit; if the paste is thick, wheat flour will be wasted, which will affect the family's rations... Therefore, the appropriate measure is very challenging.
Wanxi clapped her hands and laughed, "Sister Lu is the best at housekeeping. It's only June, and it's estimated that there will be some wheat flour for making paste in the palace this year; this is naturally the amount needed for making paste. It's clear!"
Wanxi said, winking mischievously at the rest of the people, "Who said that sister Lu is a Han girl from the south of the Yangtze River? Look, since my mother's family was ordered to enter the flag, not only the buns under the banner will do it; Now I'm good at making paste. This is completely the Fujin under its banner!"
Yuqin was so ashamed that she got up and ran over, raising her hand as if to pinch Wanxi's face.
"Look how protective you are! I figured it out, you're protecting Yurui, even me!"
Concubine Wan and Concubine Ying both laughed, stepped forward one by one, and pulled Wanxi and Yuqin away.
Only then did Yu Rui quietly breathe a sigh of relief, quietly looked at Wanxi, and finally smiled in relief.
.
They each sat back, and Concubine Wan only asked Yu Rui with a smile, "It's useless for you to bear such a big grievance, but you really hid us all. It's your master, and I'm afraid it was early in the morning. Before I could speak clearly, I was shocked for a bit."
Yu Rui sat on the red sandalwood footrest, although she was half a body shorter than the others, she raised her head high and proudly.
"...This year, it is said that Concubine Yu will be promoted to Noble Concubine. If Concubine Yu can be promoted, then the position of Noble Concubine will be full, and our master will have no chance to be promoted again."
"Our master is good-natured and indifferent, so he doesn't bother to argue with her. But since the slave has served the master for a while, how can he bear to watch the master suffer from this dumb loss?"
"Even if the master doesn't fight for himself, the slave will fight for the master; even if it's not for the master, he has to go for our fourteenth brother!"
Yurui took a deep breath, raised her eyes to focus on Wanxi, "...the imperial concubine, when Concubine Shu gave birth to a child, the emperor didn't give her a promotion, just to keep it for you, master! The emperor managed to keep it for so many years , the slave can’t be called Concubine Yu just snatched away like this!”
Wanxi sighed softly, "You silly girl, you fight for me like this, but what you have to pay is your whole life..."
Yu Rui lowered her eyes lightly, "The master is already in the concubine position at this time, and if you go up, there are only two positions, the imperial concubine and the imperial concubine. But if there is a queen, the imperial concubine will not be sealed alive, so the master will return to the imperial concubine in the future." The only one who can be promoted is this noble concubine."
"It's different from those positions in the past. When the master reaches this point, he is doomed to be ten times or a hundred times more difficult to go up. Not to mention the empress dowager, after all, there are still so many ancestors' family laws lying in front of her." there."
"In the history of the Qing Dynasty, there has never been a woman with the Han surname in Xin Zheku who can rise to the position of concubine... But it is rare for the emperor to have such a heart for the master, so the slave has to guard it for the master! At this time, the master has With the emperor's heir in his body, it is inappropriate to disturb the mind, so the slave should naturally share the worries of the master."
Wanbi nodded movedly, but still sighed, "I'm afraid that even if you can take care of your master to such an extent, the empress dowager will not be easy to pass."
"After all, when the harem is enfeoffed, the empress dowager's decree has always been followed. The empress dowager's gold treasure must be stamped on the canonized edict, and this canonization is counted. If the empress dowager does not use the treasure, the emperor will not be able to issue a decree alone... If Without a canon, it is giving you the treatment of a noble concubine, and it is still not justified."
"At this time, there is still Concubine Shu in the position of concubine; below the position of concubine, there are at least Lan nobles from the empress dowager's family. Why doesn't the empress dowager want to leave this imperial concubine to the nobles of the Manchu family? Therefore, Really, unless the emperor resorts to extraordinary actions, the empress dowager will not waver at all."
Wanxi nodded and smiled lightly, "Whether this method can shake the Empress Dowager's heart or not, at least I know that the Emperor and Yurui are willing to do this for me. Then this kind of heart is compared to that noble concubine's position." It is even more precious. In my heart, it is already a blessing."
Yuqin sighed, "...No. If the empress dowager has already nodded, the emperor must have issued a decree to enter Feng Wanxi this time along with the nobleman who bestowed Yi and Guo Changzai. But the emperor did not By decree, the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry did not move to make gold books, gold treasures, etc., that is to say, the Empress Dowager still has not fully nodded."
Concubine Ying was more optimistic, "Sisters, don't be pessimistic. Maybe when your sister Ling's child is born, as long as she is still a prince, the emperor can take advantage of the situation and enfeoff your sister!"
Wanxi herself smiled lightly, and raised her hand to scratch the tip of Concubine Ying's nose, "Silly girl. Who said that if I can give birth, it must be the prince?"
.
At noon, Xiao Qi and Yong Lu were both tired.Wanpin and Yuqin leave with their children.
Yurui personally sent off several hostesses, came back and knelt in front of Wanxi, still wanting to say something.
Wanxi still shook her head and said with a smile, "Forget it. You don't need to say these words anymore. After all, I have a steelyard in my heart."
At this moment, Liu Zhu'er sneaked in sneakily, knelt down and replied, "Master, the emperor ordered me to use lotus seed soup."
It's the height of summer in June, so it's time to use some lotus seed soup.
Wanxi snorted softly, "The emperor used lotus seed soup, why did you report it to you? Could it be that the emperor has not forgotten that you came out of the imperial dining room, so why can't you make it yourself?"
Liu Zhu'er's cheeks turned red, "...Master is right."
Wanxi couldn't help beating the kang and laughing, "Okay, this master!"
Playing tricks again? !
Wanxi wasn't bothered, she raised her head slightly, and snorted, "What's the problem if I tell you to do it? I'll borrow you out right now. You go off to the island alone and go back to the imperial dining room." Come back after serving."
"After all, it's better not to have the emperor go to the island in person."
Liu Zhu'er raised her head with a look of embarrassment on her face, "...the master is wise. However, the emperor said that not only should the slaves do it by themselves, but the lotus seeds must be grown in the lotus pond on our island."
.
Wanxi smiled helplessly, "...I thought to myself, if I want to say that if I ask someone to pick the lotus seeds from our lotus pond and send them out, the emperor will have to add another sentence, 'We still need to use the stove on our island, the stove on our island, The pot' up, isn't it?"
Liu Zhu'er couldn't help laughing, "My master is so powerful. The emperor really said this~"
Wanxi smiled and shook her head, leaning on the cushion with her elbows and her forehead with her fingertips, she thought about it.
"Forget it, hand it over to the eunuch on the boat, and say that you can send the emperor over; but after a quarter of an hour, you have to come back to pick up the emperor."
Liu Zhu'er opened his mouth wide, "Just a quarter of an hour?"
Wanxi snorted softly, "Only in this way, can the outsiders think that although I gave way half a step, I dare not break the rules of the monarch and ministers; but my heart, I haven't forgiven the emperor yet. If so, it's not in vain It has paid off the painstaking efforts of the emperor and Yurui."
Yu Rui was slightly startled, and hastily squatted down to leave, "...ask Yuchan and Yuying to serve, and the slave will leave."
Wanxi sighed softly, "Silly girl. From now on, you will stay in the palace for the rest of your life, so how can you avoid seeing the emperor forever? If you stay, we are still us, what should we say?" Just say whatever you want."
.
Although Wanxi didn't want to embarrass Yurui, but the emperor rushed in excitedly. Seeing Yurui and Yuchan squatting behind Wanxi to pay their respects, the emperor raised his hand, "You all go down. I think Talk to your master alone."
Wanxi couldn't bear it anymore, she quickly stretched out her hand to grab Yurui, "Yurui's identity is different from Yuchan and the others at this time. The emperor asked the servants to go down, but Yurui was not included."
The emperor narrowed his eyes and stared at Wanxi, "Gao Yuncong, the fan fruit in the eight treasures box I ate at lunch, I said that the eight flavors are delicious..."
Gao Yun was sensible, and fell to his knees, "The emperor said that the fruit was just off the boat of the Hongmao people in Guangzhou and sent to the capital. I am afraid that the young master Yurui has never tasted it, so I will give it to you." The eight items in the eight treasures box were all rewarded to the little master Yurui."
"Your servant remembers all of them, they have already brought them together."
The emperor snorted softly, "Aren't you going to serve you, little master Yurui?"
Since the emperor had a reward, Wanxi couldn't stop her, she pursed her lips and smiled, and let go.Low and Yurui said, "Try it and see if it tastes good. If there is something that is not too cold, it will be easier for me to move my mouth now, so leave me two to taste."
Yu Rui just went down.
Wanxi glanced at the emperor, "...the emperor came well prepared."
The emperor spat, "I know you can't wipe it off your face! If you don't prepare, you should feel ashamed and flustered in your heart!"
Wanxi pouted, ignored the emperor, turned around, stepped on the pedals, lifted her robes to the left and right, and sat down on the kang.
She herself has a big belly, and today she is wearing an ivory-colored plain gauze gown, so she slowly moves up the kang, her shadow falls on the window glass, she really looks like a big female silkworm.
"Does the master know? Then the master and Yu Rui conspired in private, and secretly arranged this matter behind my back? You kept me in the dark!"
The emperor had long legs and big strides, and he caught up with him in two steps, and he was already sitting next to Wanxi.
"If I told you in advance, would you agree? You must have refused to protect Yurui."
"Maybe, before the master makes arrangements, you should have found a reason to release Yurui out of the palace in private!"
Wanxi sighed, "Anyway, it's too late to say anything at this moment... I just feel sorry for Yurui."
The emperor reached out and took Wanxi's hand.
"...She is not wronged. People who are wronged in their hearts can't stay in the palace; the master has to make her stay in the palace willingly, so that she can accompany you for the rest of her life without complaint."
.
Wanxi's heart moved quietly.
Yurui's hesitation to speak... She was not unaware of it.
Besides, the matter of makeup powder does not include the appearance she saw when she first bumped into Yu Rui's face when she opened the curtain in the early morning of June [-]th.
That morning, Yurui was real and pale.
She felt in her heart that there might be something else going on here—but, after all, Yurui did this for her sake, so she didn't want to pursue it further; she didn't want to put Yurui's sad things on Yuqin again. They opened up in front of them.
Yurui is a girl, and she has to protect Yurui's heart.
When the emperor saw that her eyes were black and white, he coughed in embarrassment.
"...Well, when I arrived at Yongqi's place that day, I saw Yurui drinking alcohol. Yurui got out of the car on the way, and when I came back, I was already drunk, so she came to my carriage by mistake."
"I could have asked the guards to separate her, but I still asked her to come in my carriage that day."
Wanxi let out a breath, "The emperor did it on purpose!"
The emperor was blushing, and coughed softly, "Yes. I know her intentions, and I also understand your friendship for her. Therefore, if I use her for nothing, and waste her youth for nothing, your heart will be gone." I'm uncomfortable, and my father's heart is not stable."
"That's why I...cough cough, Yurui was drunk and couldn't help herself. When she rushed to hug me, I didn't push her away..."
Wanxi was stunned, not knowing what expression to use.
The emperor raised his sleeve and pressed his forehead, "Master sacrificed half of his cheek and asked her to give it a kiss... From then on, she felt ashamed, even if she stayed in the palace with you, she would be willing."
.
Wanxi couldn't help laughing, "...so the movement in the carriage was just Yurui kissing the emperor on the cheek?"
The emperor frowned, "It's really full of people. Once drunk, it's really energetic. The master had to fight all over the place to stop her."
Wanxi really didn't know whether to laugh or sigh.
"Yu Rui was drunk, and finally had the opportunity to be alone with the emperor. When he couldn't help himself, the emperor pushed her away? Master, you——do not pity her."
The emperor snorted softly, "I'm not afraid of anything else, but I'm afraid that someone will feed me grass soaked in Coptis chinensis."
Wanxi laughed with a "puchier", but followed closely, tears rolling down.
"But Yurui, just because of this, she has to spend her whole life staying in the palace... This silly girl, I'm not worth it for her."
"It's a pity that she was pale and uncomfortable in front of me that morning, but she took on such a big reputation just for a moment. She really deserves to die."
The emperor stretched out his hand to hold Wanxi, "You two are deeply in love. She was drunk and thought it was a dream; she woke up in the enclosure at night and realized it was true. She was going to die of regret at that moment gone."
"Therefore, there is no need for me to say anything, she has already understood my intention - she is a smart girl, and she knows that if I have no other arrangements, she will definitely not ask her to get into my carriage."
.
Outside the window, in the side hall, Yurui is chewing the fan fruit that the emperor gave him.
The mouth is sweet, but the eyes are sour with tears.
She recalled that on the morning of June [-]th, the emperor would get up before dawn to handle state affairs.She rushed from the enclosure into the bright room of the emperor's bedroom in a panic, and kowtowed to the emperor to plead guilty.
The emperor stared at her lightly, "Yu Rui, did you sleep well? Did you fully wake up from the dream last night?"
She nodded with tears in her eyes, "The servant is awake."
The emperor nodded, "Just wake up. You have been by your master's side for more than ten years. If I like you, I won't wait until today. But after waiting until today, you should understand in your heart-I have no love for you between men and women." .”
"Now that things are up to now, I'm not afraid to tell you something plain: the request letter for you to leave the palace was reported to me last year, but I withheld it and didn't send it out."
"Yongshou Palace cannot live without you, but there are palace rules in the palace. Official women can leave the palace at the age of 25. No matter how late, they can only stay until they are around 30 years old. It is because the chief of the inner court is deeply attached to the women. , I don’t want to let go anymore, and I don’t dare to force you to stay. Therefore, if you don’t leave this year, you will leave sooner or later next year or the year after next.”
The emperor's eyes turned faintly in the unknown sky.
"Unless...the officials and women voluntarily stay in the palace and never go out again for the rest of their lives."
.
At that moment, Yurui knew that she had smiled, and felt relieved.
In her "dream", she finally had the courage to hug the emperor and kiss her; but the emperor, seeing that she was so drunk, actually carried her back to Jiuzhou Qingyan... Her future has actually been decided.
Outsiders will never know that she only pecked the emperor's face once in the carriage; that night when she stayed on Qingyan Island in Jiuzhou, she was just dreaming alone in the enclosure.
When I woke up from the dream, everything was still the same.
However, she was already content.After all, she once slept in the emperor's bedroom for one night, after all, she once rode in a carriage with the emperor, after all... even though it was regarded as a dream, she still stole a piece of incense from the emperor.
For her, this life is already the most fulfilling dream.
It is a blessing to have such a dream in my life.
Therefore, even though the corners of her eyes were a little wet, she still knelt down to the emperor with a clear heart, "...I beg the emperor for grace, I am willing to stay in the palace and serve my master all my life."
The emperor smiled, took a step forward, reached out to her, and pulled her up himself.
"...Since you are willing to stay, I will not wrong you. I will give you a place, and I will not call you an official woman again."
"Besides, your uncle is the official secretary of the Ministry of Rites at this time, and your Ama is the Minister of the Ministry of Industry. If I seal you up, I won't wrong your family."
