Concubine, she is so charming

Chapter 174 Rejection
In February, the dragon raised its head, and Nanqi officially set off for the first southern tour since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The effect is still obvious.

Hearing that the emperor wanted to personally inspect and experience the people's livelihood in the south, those rumors really changed.

The people today are still simple and honest, they think that if the emperor is willing to come to see them, he will definitely help them.

Therefore, starting from the day Ning Chen set off, many people spontaneously gathered along the road to worship.

Ning Chen was not hypocritical, he simply abandoned the car and rode on horseback, letting the people see him as an emperor with their own eyes.

With such an act of being close to the people, when Ning Chen arrived in the disaster-stricken area of ​​Lanzhou, the rumors had almost been quelled.

Although snowstorms are serious, they are also good.

Because of the cold weather, the corpses of the dead will not rot quickly, causing plagues and the like.

And it's easier to deal with, just distribute enough cold-proof materials and food to solve it.

This is why Ye Yun proposed the southern tour, after all, it is not as risky as the northern tour.

In short, by March, as the weather warms up, the disaster situation in Lanzhou will be basically resolved.

In the letter sent back by Ning Chen, he roughly stated the situation, everything went well, and the next step is to inspect the rest of the area.

At the same time, the results of the Lanzhou incident were also announced to the whole country.

Han Xingke, the prefect of Lanzhou, was sentenced to death, his family property was confiscated, and his descendants were not allowed to be officials in the imperial examination for three generations.

Lanzhou is a large state, with five counties in total. Excluding the magistrate of Dinghe County, there are still five vacancies.

Although the county magistrate is not a high-ranking official, but often the grassroots can make the most achievements and have the most experience. It would be a big difference if the juniors in the family were sent there, after a few years of experience and then trying to transfer back to Kyoto.

Moreover, the location of Zhizhou is even more coveted, and I don't know whose hands it will fall into.

In any case, the matter in Lanzhou has been properly resolved at the moment, and it is just waiting for the emperor to return to Beijing after his southern tour.

During this period of time in the harem, it was quite stable, but the queen was not doing well.

Because she was tired during the Chinese New Year, the empress, who had been pregnant for three months, became popular within a few days after Ning Chen left Beijing.

This time the empress didn't dare to make a fuss anymore, obediently listened to the doctor's orders and stayed in bed, and spared all the concubines' greetings, but the palace power was still in her hands and she didn't hand it over.

Now Man Gongli understands in his heart that Zhao Jieyu's daily visits to Fengqi Palace are not to accompany the sick, but to do things for the queen.

The Empress Dowager wanted to speak, but was persuaded by Nanny Fu.

Now that the queen's fetus is not stable, if she is reprimanded by the queen mother to have a miscarriage, it will cause trouble to her upper body.

After weighing the pros and cons, the queen mother held back.

The main reason is that Ning Chen is not in the palace, this group of women has no target to fight, and it seems that it is rare to be safe.

The weather was fine that day, and after hearing from Lu Zhi that the Spring Festival was blooming in the Royal Garden, Ye Yun suddenly wanted to go for a walk.

Nian Gao is now a big dog, and was brought out to play today.

Ye Yun personally shaved its fur, and the whole dog looks round and cute.

There was no one in the imperial garden, so the servants asked the servants to look around, then they loosened the rope and told it to run and play by itself.

This is the first time that Nian Gao has left Yuxiu Pavilion, and she is very novel about everything, wagging her tail and barking non-stop.

"It's rare to have such a clean time, take a closer look, the scenery in the imperial garden is still pretty good." Ye Yun swayed slowly.

The elegant fragrance of winter jasmine floats in the fresh air, and it is a little sweeter, which makes people feel refreshed.

Bai Shu said, "If Jieyu likes it, why not pick two of them and put them in bottles? But the ones grown in our yard will also bloom."

"Then don't pick it. There are too many flowers and plants, and the colors are messy, but tacky." Ye Yun waved his hand.

The master and servant walked around the imperial garden for about half an hour, and the rice cakes were tired from running, so they were ready to go back.

At this moment, another wave of people came to the imperial garden, and it was Concubine Wen De.

Ye Yun didn't want to meet her, but she couldn't stand Concubine Wen De and called someone to invite her over.

After thinking for a while, she asked Nan Zhi to take the dog back, and she took Hui Yue and Bai Shu to Concubine Wen De's place.

"My concubine, please give my concubine peace."

When you see someone, you salute first.

Concubine Wen De only brought two maids close to her, and she glanced at her lightly, "Forget it, since we have met, let's go with me for a walk."

"Yes." Ye Yun replied in a low voice, without any displeasure.

Such a neither humble nor overbearing attitude made Concubine Wen De look back at her twice more.

The two of them went all the way to the southwest, where there was a pavilion for resting their feet, where they could just sit and sit when they were tired from walking.

"Does Ming Jieyu know the reason why flowers don't have a hundred-day redness?" Concubine Wen De suddenly said, "The flowers in this palace are so shallow that they are blown crooked or damaged by a little wind and rain. Look at that. The vines that grow around the tree are not only protected from wind and rain, but also bloom beautifully, don’t you think?”

The words were sudden, but the meaning was not difficult to understand. Ye Yun's eyes flickered, and he spoke.

"My lady is right, but my concubine has always been upright, and would rather be a flower that dissipates in the wind and rain than a vine that clings to a tree."

Concubine Wen De obviously didn't expect her to reply like this, her face darkened after her steps stopped.

"You have a backbone. In the future, when the grace is no longer there, there will be times when you will cry."

"It's not too late to talk about the matter in the future. The concubine has wine today and is drunk today, so don't worry about it." Ye Yun said.

Although I don't know why Concubine Wen De suddenly wanted to win her over, but there is only one thing, only others are attached to her in this life, and she will never be attached to others.

When she first entered the palace, when Chen Meiren was still ambitious, didn't she also win over her under the Queen Mother's instruction, and today she is Concubine Wen De again.

It's a pity, she prefers to control others.

"Mr. Ye, are you really going to fight against me? Don't want to toast and not eat fine wine!" Concubine Wen De let out a low voice.

He stopped and turned to stare at Ye Yun.

Today, after listening to the girl's persuasion, she put down her body and wanted to win Ye Yun into her own use, but she didn't expect to be rejected, so she was a little annoyed.

Facing her anger, Ye Yun was as calm as ever, keeping his eyes closed, "The concubine never wants to go against the empress."

Such indifference made Concubine Wende feel powerless as if her fist was hitting cotton.

As much as she hated the way she was jumping angrily now, she hated Ye Yun's attitude even more.

She was originally unwilling to put down her figure to win over, but now she was still rejected, Concubine Wen De only felt like a slap on the face, and it was burning hot.

The mood of visiting the garden for a while was also ruined.

Ye Yun gave Ye Yun a vicious look, "If you dare to talk back to me, today I will punish you to kneel here for an hour to apologize!"

"Your Majesty insists on punishing my concubine. Of course, my concubine can't do anything about it. However, my concubine also asks you to remember what you have done today. As always, your concubine will avenge any grudge."

Ye Yun raised her head, no longer avoiding her gaze, the sharp eyes pierced the heart.

Concubine Wen De was also confident, she did not show any weakness, she sneered, "I am waiting for the day you climb up!"

After speaking, he took the people away, leaving Ye Yun and the servants kneeling in the imperial garden.

　Everyone must pay attention to food safety. Yesterday I had a bad stomach and acute gastroenteritis caused a high fever. I was almost quarantined as a new crown. It was too scary.
