The queen wants to run away every day

Chapter 34

Concubine Ling said calmly: "Although the decision-making power is in the queen's hands, the emperor still has to look at it."

Yaqin seemed to understand a little bit, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty means..."

Concubine Ling smiled, and said: "The emperor's most taboo is to form a party for personal gain, and the harem is also the same. If the emperor knows that Concubine Yi has a close relationship with the Empress Empress in private, then let alone Concubine Yi, it is the Empress herself. It is inevitable that you will be reprimanded.”

After finishing speaking, Concubine Ling ordered again: "Is the fritillary turtle soup I asked you to prepare appropriate? The emperor has a throat problem recently, let's go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

Yaqin suddenly became enlightened, and said with a smile: "The servant has already prepared it."

At dusk, the sky gradually darkened, covering Yikun Palace bit by bit like an impenetrable black net.

After dinner, Yingyun leaned on the porch, watching the eunuchs busily lighting the candles on the stone platform, the day came to an end again.

"Wu Shun!" Seeing him passing under her nose, Ying Yun called him to her.

Wu Shun waited quietly, and asked, "What orders does your empress have?"

Yingyun beckoned him to come closer, and asked, "Usually, when you are not on duty, what do you guys do together to play?"

"Huh?" Wu Shun questioned in bewilderment.

Yingyun smiled and said, "I mean, do you secretly gamble?"

Wu Shun's eyes flickered, he shook his head and said, "Gambling is clearly prohibited in the palace, how could the servants commit such a crime knowingly?"

Yingyun didn't believe his tricks, and the eunuch had no other hobbies, so what else could they do if they got together and didn't gamble?
"Just tell the truth, don't worry, I won't pursue it."

Yingyun gave him a reassurance, and Wushun said quietly: "Occasionally someone gambles, and most of them are in the corner room of Shenwumen."

Ying Yun asked: "Have you ever gambled?"

Wu Shun scratched his head and said, "The little money I have is not enough for one visit?"

Yingyun asked again: "Then what are they betting on?"

Wu Shun said: "There are everything, dice, Pai Gow, even... Some people will bet on which palace the emperor will stay in today."

Yingyun suddenly became interested, and said: "This is interesting! So, who will accompany Tangquan Palace this time, and also appear in the game?"

Wu Shun's eyes flashed with stars, he nodded and said: "The game started yesterday."

Yingyun saw his serious appearance and asked, "It seems that you have also placed your bet?"

Wu Shun rubbed his hands uneasily, and said with a smile, "I bet a little."

During the day, Wu Shun saw Concubine Yi leaving Yikun Palace with a happy face, and saw that the empress had high expectations for her, so this time it must be Concubine Yi who stood out from the crowd.

With this gossip, if you don't take a gamble, you really don't want the money you picked up for nothing.

Yingyun smiled secretly, and said in a low voice, "I have some silver here, you can go and deposit it for me."

"Ah?" Wu Shun was stunned, the empress also wants to gamble?
"Ah what? Keep your voice down!" Yingyun lowered her voice and asked, "Do you know who to bet?"

Wu Shun said confidently, "I know, I'm betting on my wife Yi."

Yingyun knocked him on the head and said, "Concubine Destiny!"

Wu Shun panicked, thinking that all his wealth was with Concubine Yi, he couldn't help asking: "Why is it Lingfei? Empress, don't you want Concubine Yi?"

Yingyun shook her head speechlessly, and said: "Everyone knows that I prefer Concubine Yi, the current odds must be the highest for Concubine Ling, if we don't bet on Concubine Ling, what money will we make?"

"Your Majesty is brilliant," Wu Shun suddenly said, "Your servant will go now."

Yingyun stopped him and said, "Don't show up, go find a little eunuch you don't know."

"Whoo."
