When His Majesty went to the court, Qin Yunyi squinted on the bed for an extra quarter of an hour before calling someone to come in and wait for him to get up, "Niangniang is going to Ditai Palace today to say goodbye?"

"I'm going. Qin Yunyi said, "I've been unwell for four or five days, and no matter how bad it is, I can't talk about it." ”

It's only been four or five days, and the meat naturally hasn't grown back so quickly, and even after serving His Majesty hard, people have lost some weight, but their complexion is excellent, and their faces are full of powder without rouge.

"Let's go, let's meet our queen mother. ”

Qin Yunyi came late, it was the rest of the concubines who sat down, and when they saw her coming, they got up one after another, Qin Yunyi bent his knees slightly to Jiang Suyu, who was sitting on the top, "Say hello to Niangniang." ”

"Say hello to the concubine. When the rest of the concubines saw that she had finished saluting, they had to bend down and salute her.

"Sit down. Jiang Suyu said, she looked at Qin Yunyi, the shape of the concubine was very gorgeous, Qin Yunyi also liked to wear it like this, she was dressed in jewelry, and her eyes hurt, but she was born very well, and she was not pressed down by this jewelry, but even more domineering. It's a little thinner than before, but the lazy energy that surrounds him all tells of the holy family.

"Are you feeling better?"

Jiang Suyu asked with a fake smile, "This three days in a row, even the queen mother was alarmed, asked the palace what kind of illness you had, and asked the palace to invite a few more doctors to diagnose and understand." "Secretly sarcastic her, but she is just serving Your Majesty, so she is arrogant and does not come to ask for peace.

"Thank you for your concern. Qin Yunyi said, "It's not a big deal, it's just that Your Majesty is nervous, let me rest for a long time, don't come over to say goodbye." "What can be done, Your Majesty loves her.

"If you say that the queen is compassionate, she will not embarrass me. ”

The concubine laughed, the queen mother is not embarrassed by these little things. Concubine Song said.

"That's my villain's heart?" Qin Yunyi said with a smile. "The rules of the palace are different from the rules of the palace, I entered the temple when I first entered the palace, the palace rules are really unfamiliar, if there is any rudeness, the queen must forgive one. ”

"The concubine is smart, as can be seen from the title Min specially chosen by His Majesty for the concubine. Jiang Suyu said, "What palace rules are, it's just to see if the concubine has intentions." Although Empress Dowager Wu said that if the concubine is heavy, don't confront her head-on, it's better to hold her and indulge her, and wait for her to climb and then fall down.

Seeing Qin Yunyi's arrogant posture in front of her, she couldn't get angry.

Where do you care so much, you must prick a few words to be happy.

Qin Yunyi's smile is a little real, they are all old acquaintances of the palace, who doesn't know who, if the queen is really polite to her, she can't feel the context, and she will be a little worried, but it is still the same as before, then there is nothing to worry about.

Concubine Xian asked a few words about the life of Taimiao, and Concubine Yao said that the last time she went to visit Niangniang, she did something bad and disliked His Majesty, so Qin Yunyi replied, "Your Majesty is a great gentleman, a big husband, these little things have long been forgotten." ”

The concubine came to greet the queen, saying that it was such a trivial matter. In the past, it was not necessary to come every day to ask the queen for peace, three or five days, and ten days, like when the Empress Dowager Wu was most frustrated, the concubines only asked for peace once a month, and everyone came and was busy with Concubine Li, which made the Empress Dowager Wu feel depressed.

I don't know if I thought that the concubine's invitation was a way to reflect her dignity as the queen, Jiang Suyu set the rules for asking for peace every day.

"The queen mother and Her Majesty have discussed, and after the Dragon Boat Festival, the show girls will enter the palace. Jiang Suyu said kindly, "When the time comes, this hall will be lively, and not only a few people will look at the desert. ”

"Before this new sister entered the palace, Niangniang was tired of us, how can this be good?" Concubine Song said deliberately.

"This palace dislikes you. Jiang Suyu smiled and said, "It's just that Your Majesty's harem is really empty, and Your Majesty is now only the eldest princess under your knees, and you and I are incompetent." ”

There was a brief silence in the hall.

Others are okay to say that they don't serve His Majesty much, even if they want to have children, they can't do it, Concubine Li secretly went to see Qin Yunyi, when she was in the palace, the prince stayed with her at most, and she didn't see a good news, so she didn't and didn't, she hated it.

After please, Qin Yunyi sat in the car and had a headache, "I can't stand being so weird every day, if our queen mother still makes up her mind to say hello every day, she will inevitably report to the hospital in the future." ”

"After the Dragon Boat Festival, there will be a draft, isn't it a few days. Miao Ping said worriedly.

"What are you worried about the show girl?" Miao An blindly trusted Qin Yunyi, "Now I don't even know what my eyes and nose look like, so I'm worried that they will share the favor of the mother?"

"Niangniang is the only one in His Majesty's heart, if she can be easily compared to others, can she still be said to be the only one?"

Qin Yunyi was amused by her. "As far as you can see. ”

"Go to Yushou Palace personally, and say that I want to go to the Queen Mother to say goodbye, and ask when it is convenient. ”

There are also rules for concubines to go to the Queen Mother to ask for peace, not everyone can go, the concubines below the concubine position kowtow far away during the New Year's festival even if they have seen the queen, the concubines above the concubine want to go to the Queen Mother to ask for peace, you have to go to ask first, and wait for the Yushou Palace to say yes, you can go to the door, otherwise you have to eat a closed door, and it is not interesting to find yourself.

Back at Ronghua Palace, Qin Yunyi was not busy entering, ready to get to know his palace.

Although Ronghua Palace was not the residence of the concubines before, it was also the place where the Son of Heaven rested, the face was five rooms wide, it was very magnificent, the front of the house was a blue brick lawn, except for the wisteria wall in front of it, there was no other view. Turning to the apse, the apse, which was once jokingly called the apse of the treasury is slightly insufficient, is actually not small, with three rooms wide, but it is two floors.

Qin Yunyi must go upstairs to take a look, although he can't see the outside of the city wall from afar, he can only see the continuous palace roof, but people will be more happy in high places no matter what, Qin Yunyi closed his eyes and felt the wind.

"There are no windows up there. Qin Yunyi explained, "In the future, it will be a place to enjoy the scenery." ”

Miao Ping wrote it down.

After the apse, the place that should have been the courtyard wall became the garden that His Majesty later circled, with a small pond in the middle, surrounded by all kinds of precious flowers, "This pool is not big and small, and it is a little embarrassing, and His Majesty said to leave it to the mother to decide whether to dig wide or simply fill it." ”

"Dig a shallow ditch out of the pond, go around the small garden in a twist and turn, make a false bridge, and plant some broad-leaved plantain to separate the landscape. Qin Yunyi said, "Your Majesty likes to eat peaches, transplant a few delicious peach trees under the courtyard wall." ”

"The housekeeper of the palace didn't enter the palace, so you went back and asked him where the peaches for the prince were procured every year, and the old trees were selected to be planted, maybe there would be fruit to eat this year. ”

"Yes. Miao Ping said, "Niangniang, the people in the palace, when are you going to do it? You must also train slowly, otherwise the slave and maid will not dare to leave Niangniang's side." ”

"I'll do it when Your Majesty comes today. Qin Yunyi said.

At the end of April, even if he walked slowly and sweated, Qin Yunyi returned to the hall to change his clothes, and the outside informed the saint that he was coming. Qin Yunyi came to the gate of the hall to greet him, and when he saw Qi Zongwen from a distance, he laughed and gave a half-body salute.

"You're so happy to see me today?" Qi Zongwen said, taking her wrist and walking inside.

"I am happy to see His Majesty every day. Qin Yunyi said with a smile. "Didn't you not be able to get up from bed a few days ago, which made Your Majesty feel sluggish?"

Qin Yunyi helped Qi Zongwen change her clothes, Qi Zongwen pulled her to sit down, and looked at her carefully, "Go and ask the queen for peace today, she didn't embarrass you, right?"

"Nope. Qin Yunyi said, "The queen has always been wise and generous, and she doesn't care about me. ”

Qi Zongwen looked at her with a smile, "Have you gone to see your Ronghua Palace today?"

"Go around. Qin Yunyi said that she told Qi Zongwen about her changes, "What scenery can you see on the second floor, go to Shanglin Garden, there is a mountain there, there is a pavilion on the mountain, when the weather is good, you can still see the maple leaves of the West Mountain and the crowd on the North Gate Street on the pavilion." ”

Qi Zongwen was also a little subtle after speaking, "Now it's not as good as being in the palace, I can still take you out to play." "She is not the only one who is not free.

"When Your Majesty can't help but want to leave the palace, take me quietly. Qin Yunyi said without any worries, His Majesty is especially above her than she loves to play.

"Besides, going to the palace is also out of the palace, the palace always has to go to the West Mountain in July and August to escape the summer, the maple leaves will be red in October, and in November, in the year before, go out of the palace to soak in the hot springs and loosen quickly. Qin Yunyi said. "It's just that there are more people going out, and the procedures are more complicated. ”

"It turns out that you have arranged it clearly. Qi Zongwen said with a smile. None of them said anything about the show girl entering the palace after the Dragon Boat Festival, it wasn't that they didn't know that the other party knew, but they didn't say anything, Qin Yunyi never said anything about other women in front of him, and Qi Zongwen would not deliberately mention it.

After serving His Majesty for a nap at noon, he woke up and saw that there were two more grandmothers in the hall, Qi Zongwen looked at Qin Yunyi strangely, where did these two people come from.

"It was the Queen Mother who was afraid that I was not familiar with the palace rules, so she ordered two grandmothers to come over and teach me to be familiar. Qin Yunyi said. As for the Queen Mother's statement that she would wait until she was well to ask for peace, needless to say, "I only have Miaoping by my side, Miao'an, although I have to use it, but it doesn't look like it in the eyes of others." ”

"There are few people in this palace that you can look at?" Qi Zongwen remembered that the two maidservants around him in the past few days had been serving, and he didn't see other faces.

"I went to the Taimiao as soon as I entered the palace, and now I see them very strange. Qin Yunyi said, "Your Majesty knows that Miaoping and Miao'an are both people I personally selected, and now the maidservants of Ronghua Palace, I also want to choose them personally." ”

"According to the system, there are eight palace maids, and there are twenty of the remaining grandmothers, eunuchs, and miscellaneous servants, so many people, do you have to see for yourself?" Qi Zongwen said, and then lowered his voice and asked, "Is the grandmother given to you by the Queen Mother coming to teach the rules, or will she give it to you directly?"

"I don't know. Qin Yunyi said, "Anyway, I'll keep it for me." ”

"You. Qi Zongwen smiled helplessly and said, "Now it's not as good as the palace, once the door of your small courtyard is closed, no one will be able to detect you." He suddenly thought that Qin Yunyi went to the Taimiao as soon as he entered the palace, and he was afraid that this Ronghua Palace would have become a sieve long ago.

"It's okay, wait for the inner secretary to bring someone for you to choose, simply change the current palace people, these two grandmothers, don't say anything else, wait for you to choose people, let them teach the palace maids the rules first, if you are honest, it doesn't hurt for you to keep it, if you have different intentions, you will return to the queen mother. ”

"Your Majesty thinks the same as I do. Qin Yunyi said with a smile. "Otherwise, it's okay, just this eunuch of Ronghua Palace, Your Majesty has to give me a palm. ”

"When the time comes, I will ask Han Xing to send two people over. ”

Mama Li, who was sent by the Queen Mother, Mama Zhang lowered her head, and was surprised that the concubine was favored, and the emperor and concubine got along with each other, and it was not etiquette everywhere, but neither of them thought about it, and they got along like ordinary couples.

You must know that Concubine Li won the favor of His Majesty back then, and she was also the majesty of the heavenly family, so she didn't dare to exceed the rules.

The two exchanged glances in private, and it seemed that their policy was about to change.

Empress Dowager Wu has fallen out of favor all year round, where will there be so many loyal grandmothers in the palace, the most loyal is naturally to stay by his side, and the second-class ones should be placed by the queen's side, and then to the concubine, I am afraid that she will not dare to use it if she hides it, and only picks those who have strict rules and tight hands, and it is a bit far-fetched to really say that it is the queen mother.
