Although she sent a decree to hold the lamp, as a palace concubine, Jiang Suoyue was not qualified to know when the emperor would come, everything just depended on the emperor's mood, and the only thing she could do was to prepare early. Pearls and coral serve bathing and changing clothes, and dressing up. Jiang Suoyue wore the lotus-colored hollow peach blossom cloud satin shirt made at home, the hollow peach blossoms on the cuffs lined her wrist and snow skin, adding more coquettishness, under the sea and sky xia color waterline lily skirt, hairpins with tired silk inlaid pink crystal peach blossom hairpins, and took red gold inlaid ruby drop-shaped eyebrow pendant inserted in the middle of the bun, hanging down a thin gold thread, the drop-shaped ruby is falling between the eyebrows, compared with Hua Tian has its own exotic style, adding a bit of charm.

Dressed properly, Jiang Suoyue instructed Pearl to take the red coral bracelet that the emperor had just rewarded yesterday. Pearl put on the bracelet for her and said, "Little master, this coral is really good. ”

Jiang Suoyue said with a smile: "The things in the palace, how can there be anything bad, let alone the emperor's reward." ”

Even if it's not good, she'll wear it. A man needs affirmation, and only by responding appropriately to his overtures can he be encouraged to continue to show favor to you.

Because the emperor did not ask anyone to stay for dinner, Jiang Suoyue had dinner first and sent Xiao Zhengzi to guard outside.

"You look outside, and you see the emperor's royal palace coming quickly."

After that, Jiang Suoyue sat in the warm pavilion and waited quietly while reading a book.

She rubbed the scented ball on her waist with her hand, wondering if she could use this today.

What she wants to do is called "heart anchor" in psychology, if she pats his shoulder with her hand every time a person is relaxed and happy, he will associate her shoulder patting with relaxation and pleasure, and after strengthening it a few times, as long as she does this action, it can also make him relax and feel happy. This move was naturally to give her a special place in the emperor's heart, after all, no one would hate someone who could put them at ease. Even if the harem is prosperous, she can also be that special branch.

It's just that the object of the cast is the emperor, but it is much more troublesome, because she can't touch his body at will, so she thought of using the smell as a way, not only convenient and hidden, but also people's memory of smell is permanent, not afraid of being wiped out. It's just that she has to put some thought into choosing spices, and she can't choose common ones that others will use, so she finally chose lavender, which is rare in Kyushu and has its own calming effect.

Jiang Suoyue sighed, it was obviously a small trick that was very easy to use, but because of the identity of the other party, it took her a lot of trouble and had to plan it early. I hope it helps, if he can associate himself with relaxation and pleasure, and leave a mark in his heart, she will be able to temporarily gain a foothold in this deep palace.

Who knew that until it was dark, the emperor did not come to Cuiweiju. Pearl and coral looked at Jiang Suoyue with a worried face, and stopped talking.

Although Jiang Suoyue was very sleepy, she didn't dare to sleep, and she lost her rules, so she instructed Pearl and Sango: "You go out, if the emperor comes, come in and call me, I'll rest here for a while." ”

Pearls and coral said yes and went out.

Jiang Suoyue leaned on the couch and closed her eyes to recuperate, speculating in her heart that the emperor was afraid that he would not come, but she didn't know whether she was stumped by political affairs or called away by other concubines.

I couldn't bear the sleepiness for a while, but I slowly fell asleep.

I don't know how long I slept, Jiang Suoyue heard that there seemed to be some movement outside, and woke up suddenly. As soon as he sat up, he saw the door of the Warm Pavilion being pushed open, and Shen Nuosheng, who was dressed in a blue-gold double dragon Lingyun brocade robe, strode in.

Jiang Suoyue hurriedly got up from the couch, knelt down and saluted: "See the emperor, the concubine has missed the distance, and I hope the emperor will forgive the sin." ”

"Get up. I saw that it was too late to let them pass it on. Shen Nuosheng said, stretching out his hand to her.

Seeing this, Jiang Suoyue gently put the hand with the coral bracelet in his hand, and was pulled up by him and crashed into his arms, she shyly refused, and she didn't break free in the end.

Sure enough, Shen Nuosheng asked Jiang Suoyue: "Do you like this coral bracelet?" ”

Jiang Suoyue smiled contentedly and happily, and replied: "Of course I like it, this is the first time the emperor has given a concubine." ”

She used the word "send" instead of the word "reward", and the feelings contained in it were only left for the emperor to experience himself.

Shen Nuosheng smiled: "It's good if I like Ronghua." ”

Jiang Suoyue leaned on his arms, her hand touched his body and was slightly wet, and asked, "Your Majesty, is it raining outside?" ”

Shen Nuosheng seemed to be in a good mood, and said with a smile: "Yes, you slept so deeply, you didn't even hear such a heavy rain?" ”

Oh? Coming in the rain, it seems that he is quite willing to get along with him.

Jiang Suoyue glanced at him with a red face, and said with a slight disdain: "Concubine...... The concubine didn't rest well last night, and she is really sleepy today. ”

Shen Nuosheng heard this, remembered last night, and saw her embarrassed face again, he couldn't help laughing, and tightened the hand that hugged her waist.

Jiang Suoyue looked at his face, and saw that he had been calm and relaxed since he came in, it should be that today's political affairs were going well, and he was in a very good mood, so he leaned on his arms, his left hand gently traced the dragon pattern embroidered on his chest, and his right hand quietly unscrewed the mechanism of the aromatherapy ball on his waist, and in an instant, he smelled a fragrance that seemed to be absent, like a flower and like a herb.

Without waiting for Shen Nuosheng to notice the fragrance, Jiang Suoyue said: "The emperor is just drenched in the rain, hurry up and change the clothes on your body, so as not to get cold." ”

Shen Nuosheng nodded, and she served and changed into the clothes sent in by Gao Jingzhong.

Jiang Suoyue sent Pearl to boil a bowl of ginger soup, walked to the tea table and made a cup of tea, brought it to him, and asked: "Your Majesty, now is the rice harvest season, will this heavy rain hinder the harvest?" ”

She was not familiar with the emperor, and she really didn't know what to find in common, but when she heard that he was a monarch who was close to the government and loved the people, she wanted to ask him about farming related to the people's livelihood, and he should not find it boring.

Shen Nuosheng didn't want the harem woman to ask about such a matter of farming, so he said with a pleasant face: "It's just that in the past two days, it should be okay, and I didn't expect that my Ronghua would also care about this farming matter." ”

Jiang Suoyue looked embarrassed and said, "The emperor is used to making fun of concubines. The rice and vegetables that the concubines eat every day, which one of them does not grow in the field, how can they not care. ”

Seeing that he was still in good spirits, he continued in an innocent and cheerful tone: "The concubine's family is just a family, an ordinary farmer's family, this is a major event related to the livelihood of the people for a year." When I was a child, I heard my aunt say......"

Shen Nuosheng saw that she was elated, a pair of smart eyes flickered, sparkling, and a ruby between his eyebrows lined with a white complexion like jade, charming and delicate, and suddenly remembered that she was a beautiful and delicate woman, but she also had such a fresh and even bewitching side, and couldn't help but make him a little more interested in exploring.

But seeing that she suddenly stopped talking and looked at him a little apologetically, she asked, "Why didn't you say it?" ”

"The concubine got carried away for a while, which made the emperor smile."

"It doesn't matter. I think it's good, you go on. ”

Jiang Suoyue said with a yearning on her face: "The concubine only heard her aunt say it when she was a child, and she has never seen the scene of the wind blowing the wheat waves and the fragrance of rice. ”

Shen Nuosheng said in his heart, she is also worthy of praise for being a deep woman who can care about the suffering of the common people, and said: "You have not experienced the hardships of labor, but it is rare to have such thoughts. ”

Jiang Suoyue knew that he would take his ministers to the fields every spring ploughing to set an example and encourage the people, but she pretended not to know, and asked curiously: "Has the emperor experienced the hardships of labor?" ”

Shen Nuosheng nodded and said, "Every year during spring ploughing, I will personally go to the fields to cultivate. ”

Jiang Suoyue looked adoring and said to him: "It is a blessing for the people of the world to be able to get a Ming monarch like Your Majesty. ”

Seeing a smile on the corner of Shen Nuosheng's mouth, Jiang Suoyue said in her heart, sure enough, everyone loves to listen to flattery, but this flattery also requires skills. You can't praise a person in vain and vainly, especially a person who has received a basket of good words such as "wise and martial" like the emperor, and it is much more sincere to praise a person by praising him for a specific thing than to express that he or she is directly expressed.

As he was talking, Pearl asked for instructions outside, and said, "Little master, the ginger soup is ready." ”

Jiang Suoyue served Shen Nuosheng with ginger soup and freshened up properly.
