Chapter 37: Same Face, Different Ways
When the emperor saw that she was groggy and about to get up, he took a few quick steps to press her, and said with a smile, "Sleepy? ā
Su Wanqing rarely stays up late, and usually rests around the hour, but now it is really difficult for her to wait until the time of the child. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć She opened her eyelids forcibly, supported her crooked head with one hand, and snorted, "Chengqian Palace is already locked, how did the emperor come in?" As he spoke, he yawned lazily.
The emperor hugged her horizontally, let her snuggle in his arms, and whispered softly, "Naturally, I came in over the wall, I have excellent light skills, I didn't alarm others, you can rest easy!" ā
When Su Wanqing heard that he came in over the wall, he suddenly sobered up, pulled his sleeve and reproached, "How can the emperor climb over the wall with a multiplier body?" If you're not careful..."
"That's it!" The emperor interrupted her with a smile, pinched her face and said, "I also walked among thousands of troops back then, so it's okay." In order to see Wanqing, what is this? And honestly, you haven't seen each other for the past two days, but you have eaten and rested on time? ā
Seeing the emperor smiling, she snorted coldly, and deliberately put up a score, "I'm not happy in my heart, what kind of food to eat, it's not tasteful!" ā
The emperor knew that she was jealous, and asked knowingly, "Who is that who makes Wanqing unhappy, I will naturally punish him!" ā
She glanced at the emperor and looked away from half of her face, "Far away in the sky, close in front of you!" ā
Her straightforward temperament made the emperor feel comfortable, and he clinged to her flatteringly, and said pitifully, "The affairs of the court and China are complicated, and I really can't get out of my body these days." As for Song Xintong, Wan Wan should know my intentions, the so-called husband and wife are of the same heart, you will be able to understand. ā
Su Wanqing naturally knew that Hui Chongyi had become a pawn to stabilize the situation in the court and the harem, but the emperor's sentence of "husband and wife" shocked her, "The concubine doesn't dare to call you husband and wife, this is not harmonious." ā
He didn't mean to say it, and he was a little incredulous when he first finished speaking, did he already regard her as such an important person? What is the deep affection for Anyang? For a moment, he was a little irritable, and he fell silent and did not speak.
Su Wan was tired early in the morning, and as soon as the bedroom was quiet, he quickly fell asleep. The emperor listened to her even breathing, and seemed to be sleeping very peacefully, and couldn't help but laugh twice, what kind of feelings he had for this woman seemed to have exceeded his expectations in the draft.
The emperor came to Chengqian Palace in the dead of night, and naturally left quietly before the second day. He went to Chengqian Palace to find her so hard, just to inform her not to get involved in the battle between Concubine De and Hui Chongyi. As a result, before she could say anything, she fell asleep, so she left a note and pressed it under the celadon vial beside the couch.
Su Wanqing will not do what he tells her, she came here to stir up trouble in this Great Xia court.
The next day, she got up and went to visit Minji early, after all, her position and qualifications were above her. It seems that after only one night, Minji's spirit has improved, and she speaks and does things with a smile and a smile, and she is no longer the cautious and sad appearance she used to be.
"It's natural for Sister Min to be happy, the two of us are unrestrained in this Chengqian Palace, and there are no such big rules."
Min Ji was wearing a moon white plum dot cotton placket and a plain green pleated skirt, with an excellent complexion, "I won't tell you, I slept exceptionally well last night, and I can be regarded as out of Xianfu Palace, and the experience of these years is bitter." ā
The palace maid Ruqing respectfully handed the tea to Su Wanqing, and echoed, "What the little lord said is exactly that when Concubine De was favored, we were all squeezed and didn't even have a charcoal respect. Every time the emperor is fortunate to be a newcomer, he will inevitably be angry, and he will raise his heart to his throat every day. ā
Min Ji sighed deeply, "Now there is another Hui Chongyi, and it is not simple. I have survived all the hardships to the end, but it's a pity that your sister still has to suffer. ā
Su Wan said lightly, "Sister Min said carefully, how could Sister Gui Concubine suffer?" She frowned again, and asked seemingly unintentionally, "Above the Li noble concubines, there are only the four concubines and Jingyang Palace Jin Zhaoyi, who should have a lot of status in the palace, why have they been restrained in Xianfu Palace for a long time?" ā
Min Ji raised her head and looked at the red glazed porcelain on the rhombic partition with a vacant gaze, the pair of pupils were like a bottomless pit, and she couldn't see any emotion at all.
"It's... It's a long story, your sister is a very good person, but it's a pity that she is dragged down by the old past. She turned her face to look at Su Wanqing sideways and asked in a low voice, "Has Sister Jia heard of Concubine Wei?" ā
Su Wanqing nodded, when Yuan Xingying provoked Long Yan to anger before, she heard about Concubine Wei, but she was just a delusional woman.
Min Ji couldn't help but sigh and said, "I entered the palace in the sixth year of Seung-hee, and I am not the same as the noble concubine, but I also heard about the events of the year. Concubine De, Sister Guifei, and Concubine Wei were all selected into the palace by Chengxi's four-year show. I heard that it was Concubine Wei who was favored in one fell swoop at that time. The noble concubine sister is naturally beautiful, and her grace is naturally not bad. What's more, Concubine Wei and your sister are good friends. ā
Su Wanqing heard some doorways and asked tentatively, "Later, Concubine Wei fell out of favor, and it also affected the grace of the noble concubine?" ā
"Exactly. It is said that the emperor hated the people who secretly calculated him, and hated Concubine Wei for stealing the pregnant heir, so he also complained that the noble concubine did not report it. Her eyes were full of bitterness, and she really couldn't imagine the emperor's ruthlessness at that time, "Concubine De Niangniang was promoted to the fourth concubine by Jieyu at the beginning of the sixth year of Chengxi, and the emperor pointed to Xianfu Palace, so the noble concubine sister could only give up the throne. ā
Su Wanqing guessed that the emperor must still have a grudge against Concubine Li when he did that, otherwise he would have pointed to the empty throne in the East Sixth Palace.
"That's it! Don't think about those things anymore! Min Ji rubbed her temples and said, suddenly there was another flash of inspiration, and she eagerly tugged at Su Wanqing's sleeve and said, "Why don't we go to the steward of the Imperial Garden to ask for a few pots of orchids to raise, I have seen it early in the morning, but because the previous house was too small, it couldn't be opened at all, so I had to give up." ā
"It's all this season, are the orchids still alive?"
Minhee smiled confidently, her eyes narrowed into slits, especially cute and funny, "Look at me! ā
In the end, Su Wanqing still accompanied her to the imperial garden to choose orchid potted plants, the bottom pot of red brick porcelain is very strong, and auspicious patterns are carved on it. The soil is soft, the rhizome of the orchid is deeply planted in it, the color of the corolla is extremely light and elegant, mostly light yellow, plain white, light pink, under the reflection of slender green leaves, it is extremely quiet.
Min Ji picked a few pots, sent the palace people to move away, and thanked the steward of the imperial garden. The two of them were tired after tossing and turning, so they prepared to go back to Chengqian Palace, walking slowly along the winding path next to the Ye Lake, and they heard a mournful cry, which was not loud but enough to be heard.
