Secret Agent: The Devil's Favorite Wife

Chapter 89

Soon, the sky darkened.Que Ruoyu and Liu Shanggong took a group of maids and servants to hang the palace lanterns.

Que Ruoyu walked to the front of the line, but she kept her head down all the time.She didn't want to be spotted by Yun Bin later.That woman looked very tricky and weird, and she didn't know what kind of tricky methods Yun Bin would come up with to deal with her if she saw her coming to her palace.

Liu Shanggong held two palace lanterns in her hand, she didn't notice Que Ruoyu's expression.All she can think about now is how happy the emperor is after seeing such a palace lantern.At that time, the people accompanying them may also be able to get a little bit of luck.

Yunpin is a very smart concubine, she is good at seizing every day when the emperor comes to her palace.She always faces it all with a smile.Today, she ingeniously changed the place to eat in the gazebo.

Que Ruoyu frowned, but Concubine Yun was really in a good mood.

Although it is spring now, the weather is still a bit cold at night.It was better for Que Ruoyu to lean against the fire, but shivering in the cold with the maid standing farther away.

"Liu Shanggong? Who are you?" Yun Bin looked at Liu Shanggong with some curiosity.However, when she looked at the palace lantern in Liu Shanggong's hand, she understood exactly what happened.

It turned out that the emperor came to her today, so the palace lanterns were lit for her.She was very happy to see the exquisite palace lantern in Liu Shanggong's hand.

"Liu Shanggong, I didn't expect you to be so caring. Hurry up and hang up all the palace lanterns in your hands." She said happily, her pink face was full of happiness.

Que Ruoyu quickly handed over the palace lantern in her hand to the closest court lady, she doesn't know how to hang palace lanterns.

At this moment, she watched Yun Bin walking in her direction.She stepped back a little, trying to stay as far away from Yun Bin as possible.She couldn't afford to offend the Yunbi who was standing there.

She has now been separated from the queen's palace.If she messes with Empress Keyun here.Then, no one can support her.In any case, her own life must be cherished.

"Liu Shanggong, these palace lanterns in your hand are really exquisite. I haven't thought that there are such talents in the Shang Palace. These palace lanterns are ten times more beautiful than the palace lanterns of previous years, and they are more than a hundred times. I don't know this year. Who is this talented person in Shang Palace?"
When Que Ruoyu heard that Yun Bin praised her, she was still a little happy.However, she doesn't dare to go out to receive this reward rashly now.

Liu Shanggong kept smiling, "This is designed by the new recruit." She looked back, and was about to introduce Que Ruotou to Concubine Yun.The moment she turned her head, she did not see Que Ruoyu's figure.

"Hey, weren't you still here just now? Where did you go now?" She said with some doubts.

Yun Bin smiled, "It seems that I will not have the chance to meet the person who designed the palace lantern today." Her tone was very light, as if she didn't take this matter to heart.

Que Ruoyu let out a long sigh of relief.She was glad that Bin Yun didn't break the habit of asking questions about the casserole.She leaned on the big square pillar, facing Yunbi obliquely.

Fortunately, she hid.

Liu Shanggong looked at Concubine Yun and didn't intend to get to know her, so the index didn't mention Que Ruoyu.Liu Shanggong was in charge of arranging all the delicacies on the table.

Concubine Yun took a closer look, and she always felt that something was missing.Every time the emperor came to her place, he didn't want to go to court the next morning.It's not because of how good Yun Bin is in bed.It's because, as long as the emperor comes to her, he will feel extremely relaxed.

The emperor likes the atmosphere here.

Today, although the palace lanterns are very beautiful and dazzling.She always felt, though, that something was missing there.She always felt a little flustered.There is always a feeling that nothing can be said.

She frowned, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

Que Ruoyu looked at several court ladies who were hanging palace lanterns.It turned out that these palace lanterns were hung on the aisle outside the room.However, Yun Bin disliked that there was nothing new in doing that.So at this moment, she asked those maids to bring out some palace lanterns.The purpose is to hang the palace lantern on the tree.

Que Ruoyu could still recall the words Yunbi said just now, "If the emperor comes over, he will be able to see the palace lantern right away. If he sees it, he will know how eagerly this palace is looking forward to his coming here."
Que Ruoyu smiled lightly, that woman who is sitting in front of the meal with all manners is really a caring person.She is too good at grasping the psychology of the emperor.It's no wonder that the emperor favors her so much.

After a while, the emperor's chariot arrived here.

Those above the gazebo, those in the long aisle, and the maid who was still busy hanging the palace lantern at the front all knelt down.

"Long live the emperor, long live the emperor." As Yun Bi saluted softly, the emperor came in front of her.He gently took Yunpin's hands.

"My concubine is suffering." The emperor looked curiously at the palace lanterns that filled the gazebo.

"The palace lanterns this year are much more beautiful than previous years. The people in Shangzhu Bureau are also paying more and more attention." The emperor casually mentioned a few words.

"The concubine also thinks the same way. You see, this year's palace lanterns are different from those of previous years. This year's palace lanterns are like colorful and shining gemstones. I don't know what materials they used." Yunbi looked at those The palace lantern couldn't help boasting.

The emperor smiled, "Call someone over to ask if it will be ready soon?"
Liu Shanggong stood beside the emperor, she heard this sentence clearly.This is a good opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune.She hurriedly called Que Ruoyu over.

Que Ruoyu came out from behind the wooden pillar, keeping her head down all the time.

The emperor glanced at Que Ruoyu indifferently, "Come and tell me, how are these made?" The emperor ordered someone to take down one of the palace lanterns.At this moment, the emperor is studying it very seriously.

Que Ruoyu calmly described how these bright pearl-like palace lanterns were made.Moreover, why are their styles so unique.

When the emperor heard this, he frowned vigorously. "You mean that the paper used to make palace lanterns is very particular? As long as you put a candle in it, it will naturally emit light?"
The emperor looked at the palace lantern in his hand with great interest.It is not like the palace lantern in the traditional sense, it is very touristy.

Que Ruoyu nodded, and she didn't want to tell the emperor what chemical and physical effects she used.In short, she has no way to explain it clearly to him now.

However, she still wanted to let the emperor know about some necessary procedures.

"Reporting to the emperor, it is quite difficult to obtain materials for these palace lanterns. In order to achieve good results, servants must dye the white palace paper into other colors. Moreover, in order to prevent it from being easily blown away by the wind. We are still Many small wooden blocks were added to it inside. This is to make the palace lantern look particularly stable."
"Mmm," the emperor gave a soft acknowledgment.

"That's right, raise your head and let me take a look." The emperor looked at Que Ruoyu's posture of lowering his head all the time, he was a little puzzled.

Que Ruoyu held each other tightly with both hands, she didn't have the courage to look up at the emperor now.

"Look up." The emperor repeated, this time his voice was a little annoyed.

Liu Shanggong pushed Que Ruoyu's shoulder curiously. "The emperor is talking to you? What are you wandering about? Hurry up and look up." Liu Shanggong said softly beside Que Ruoyu.

The arrow is on the string and has to be sent.

Que Ruoyu raised his head.

The emperor looked at Que Ruoyu, a little shocked.After a while, he burst out laughing. "It turned out to be a palace lantern made by the princess of the previous dynasty. It really deserves its reputation."
"Thank you, the emperor, for your compliment. This servant has made a fool of herself." She quickly lowered her head.However, it is useless now.Concubine Yun still saw Que Ruoyu's face.

Yunbi didn't seem too angry.Maybe, she has long forgotten about Que Ruoyu, this little guy.

"I didn't expect you to make palace lanterns so well. It seems that you are also a talented woman. Since you are talented, you must have some ambitions?" The emperor asked calmly and gently.

Que Ruoyu was startled, why did the emperor ask her such a thing.She originally planned that the emperor would send her something casually after seeing her palace lantern.It is also a good thing to let her official position be raised a little bit.

However, the emperor actually came to ask her such a question now.

"Reporting to the emperor, this servant is just a small fundraiser. I don't have much ambition. This servant only wants to stay in peace for the rest of my life." She replied softly.

Hearing what Que Ruoyu said, the emperor laughed even deeper.This time, however, his smile seemed more relaxed.

"Okay!" The emperor only replied two words lightly.

Concubine Yun sat aside, "Your Majesty, didn't you come to accompany my concubine today? Why don't you say a word to this concubine right now." Concubine Yun pretended to be a little angry.Her body kept leaning against the emperor's body.

The emperor's smile became even stronger, "I know I'm here to accompany my concubine today." He held Concubine Yun's hand and looked lingering.

Que Ruoyu frowned, even if they want to be in love now, can they care about her feelings?She is still kneeling.

"The extra people should step down." The emperor said lightly.

The so-called redundant people are people like Liu Shanggong and Que Ruoyu.

When Liu Shanggong heard that the emperor was going to tell them to leave now, she was somewhat regretful.Originally thought that they could receive rewards through the palace lanterns today.As a result, the emperor simply praised Que Ruoyu.No other rewards at all.

Que Ruoyu stood up, and walked out with Liu Shanggong and the others.

Yunpin's palace looks so beautiful, those palace lanterns are the brightest places in the whole palace.

"Your Majesty, would you like some wine?" She said coquettishly as she gently snuggled into the Emperor's embrace.
