The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 753 Gentle Knife
A few days later, Yujia returned to Luan, and the turmoil gradually subsided.

The emperor didn't mention it on the surface, but he was extremely afraid of the fact of Mulan's paddock in his heart.

Now, no matter which prince he looks at, he feels that his own son is planning to take his own life to replace him.

This has been the case for a long time, causing him to suffer from a heart attack, which is already very suspicious. He often suffers from chest cramps, and the dragon robe is soaked in profuse sweat every time he has an attack.

In the joint palace, most concubines compete for their own children, for their own mother's family, and for their own honor and favor.

The emperor watched them fight for half his life, and was already tired of those dirty tricks.

At this moment, he only wants to find someone who is submissive and obedient to serve by his side.Only in this way can his tense nerves be relaxed a little.

And this person, apart from Wanyan, has no other choice.

One day, the newly favored Chun Chang was having a rest in the morning with the nobleman serving the emperor.After waking up, Li Jian presented the emperor with newly brewed tonic at the imperial hospital.

The tonic has the flavor of Coptis chinensis, it tastes very bitter, before he saw anyone coming, he could smell the smell of medicine from a long distance, which made the emperor frown.

With the concubine at his side, the inner eunuch couldn't get in the way.Li Jian bowed to the emperor, then gave the two young masters a slap in the face, handed the tonic to the nobleman, and resigned politely.

Mr. Ying took the bowl, stirred it twice with a jade spoon, put a spoon on the vermilion lips and blew the fragrance gently.After the medicine was warmer, it was delivered to the emperor's lips, and he said softly: "Your Majesty, the good medicine tastes bitter."

The emperor unconsciously moved his body back to avoid it, and Chun Chang watched him, and with a high-pitched voice, he said in a delicate and numb voice: "Is it okay for the concubine and sister to serve the emperor together?"

As she spoke, she took a bunch of grapes, carefully peeled off the skins, and dropped them crystal clear on the plate: "The emperor said yesterday that the grapes newly offered in the Western Regions are sweet, and he likes to eat them. My concubine chose the transparent ones for the emperor. Your Majesty has taken medicine, can concubines feed it to His Majesty? For the health of His Majesty’s dragon body, some of this medicine must always be taken in.”

"Is my body not working now?" The emperor looked at her sharply, "What do you mean by saying that I am not able to do what I want?"

Chun Changzai was terrified, put down the grapes in his hand, left the seat and knelt down: "My concubine made a slip of the tongue, my concubine didn't mean that, the emperor appeases his anger."

She was already kneeling, how could Mr. Ying dare to sit upright?

So he put down the bowl, knelt beside Chunchang and persuaded him: "The emperor calms down, my sister is still young, and it was unintentional for Chunchang to say the wrong thing for a while. Please also ask the emperor."

"Yo, what's the matter?"

When the two were panicking, Wan Lai's ethereal voice floated in from outside the hall.

Looking towards the prestige, seeing her coming in full dress, she smiled at the two of them with a radiant face: "But do you want to offend the emperor?"

As she spoke, she walked to sit beside the emperor very naturally, raised her eyes to look at him, and said softly: "They are all young ladies, why is the emperor embarrassing them?"

The emperor was silent, and Wannai winked at the two of them: "I have my palace serving here, you two kneel down and rest."

The two got the words, thanked each other quickly, helped each other get up and ran away in a panic.

Wan Lai stared at the steaming soup on the table, and said to the emperor: "It's kind of them to serve the emperor to feed the medicine, the emperor just put on a serious face, and the concubines are afraid when they look at it." After taking the bowl, Just as he was about to serve it to the emperor, he heard the emperor snort and said: "The medicine is bitter, and the imperial hospital comes to deliver it every day, only saying it is a great tonic, but I don't want to drink it."

Wannai's hand holding the medicine cup froze in the air, quickly turned around, and lightly poured the full cup of decoction into a potted wintersweet plant placed on the table.

The emperor heard the sound of running water before looking back, saw that the bowl had already bottomed out, and all of them had been buried in the black potted soil, he frowned and said: "Wan'er, this is it."

Wan Lai smiled and interrupted the emperor's words: "The emperor doesn't want to drink it, just pour it out. The left and right are not medicines for healing, and are the tonics the same when they enter? The important thing is the emperor's heart. You are the emperor, you Who can force you to do something that you don’t want to do? That is to say, Chun Chang was young with the nobleman Ying, so he couldn’t see the meaning behind it, he just wanted to please the emperor, but he couldn’t see the emperor’s intentions.”

There was a glimmer of light in the emperor's eyes, and he looked at Wanyu approvingly and said, "It's okay if they don't understand, and I don't take them seriously at all."

Wannai put the empty bowl aside, looked at the emperor with clear eyes: "The concubine and the emperor have known each other for decades, not to mention the best guess of the emperor's mind, but the husband who really treats the emperor as a concubine The husband is happy, and the ministers and concubines should be happy."

The emperor leaned over the desk with a hearty smile, and tapped the tip of Wanyu's nose lightly with his fingertips: "You were a ghost when you first entered the palace, but you haven't changed at all now."

Entering the palace for the first time?
In the past, I was always with these nobles, and I was sincerely for the good of the emperor, and many things I did always provoked the emperor's anger.

Now I depend on him in everything, no matter good or bad, I only follow his will, and instead become the person who is most caring to him.

It's ridiculous.

Think about what you have done over the years:

Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong prevented the emperor from indulging in lust, so Wanyu secretly found concubines who were soft-spoken, gentle and beautiful, and sneaked into the Qianqing Palace in small groups at night to serve the emperor.

The emperor has always had a heavy mouth and likes to eat salt.But because the imperial physician ordered the elderly not to eat too greasy food, so the daily meals served in the imperial dining room were bland and tasteless.Only Wanyu cooked Dongpo pork, braised pork in braised pork, salt-baked freshwater prawns, etc. in private in Yonghe Palace, and sent them to Qianqing Palace for the emperor to eat.

There are countless of these.

Just like pouring out the tonic today, in fact, what does it matter to me whether he takes the medicine or not?

He was looking for a dead end and insisted on crashing in, why did he ask for trouble to stop him?

Thinking about everything, Wanyu sneered secretly in her heart, but still had a kind smile on her face: "Actually, all of you sisters have good intentions, but they are young and don't understand the emperor's intentions. When the concubines are free, they will mention it in private." Pointing at them, to make them understand how to serve the emperor, is to be considerate and considerate to the emperor."

The emperor took her hand and jokingly said: "Wan'er is not afraid that everyone will be like you, and then I will be intoxicated in the gentleness, so I will indifferent to you?"

Wanyu rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "If the emperor wants to treat his concubine coldly, then the concubine will have to live in seclusion in Yonghe Palace. But, are you willing to do so, Your Majesty?"

"Hahahaha." The emperor's laughter reverberated in Wanyu's ears, and his subordinates took Wanyu into their arms vigorously: "You say I don't want to part with it? If I did, why would I treat you like a day for decades? "

Wan Lai leaned against his chest and closed her eyes and said: "The concubine is old, so she doesn't deserve the emperor to treat her like this."

"I never envied the mandarin ducks playing in pairs, but I envied the white swans (swans) who depended on each other for life and death and never gave up in old age."

The emperor caressed his chest, and his words were full of affection: "I and Wan'er should be like white concubines, no matter when, no matter what it's worth, as long as the two love each other, we can't do without."

Hearing what he said, Wan Lai didn't speak to him, but only tightened her hands around the emperor's waist.
