Chapter 781: Please enter the urn
In the Queen's Palace.
In the study. The graceful woman stood in front of the desk. The straight brush traces the most familiar pictures on the white paper.
The man in the portrait has starry eyes. Jade Hair Bundle Officer. A pair of deep eyes seem to be looking at the beloved person in front of him.
At this moment, the queen is extremely quiet. Her every stroke is so detailed. From the eyebrows to the collar. Each stroke should be traced several times. It was as if all the details had been carved into her mind. His voice and smile. Even if you close your eyes, you can redraw it completely.
The grandmother outside was quietly guarding. Don't let anyone disturb the queen inside. Because she knows. Your own master needs a little time of his own. Do what she doesn't want others to see.
Then. The Grand Duke came to the door of the study with a few books. Looking at Mama's face, she smiled softly. "The minion has come to give the mother a roster for this draft."
Mama frowned. How to send it at this time. The mother will definitely be depressed.
"Put the booklet with the slave maid. I'll send it to my mother in a while. β
"Mama, you have to hurry. After this booklet is seen by the mother. It's time to give out the fame list. "Put the list on the notice board outside the palace. All the women who are suitable for the country have to enter the palace for the draft.
Mama hurriedly took the booklets. The tone was a little anxious. "Father-in-law, go slowly."
"Mama......" The Grand Duke still wants to say more. The queen's voice was already heard in the study.
"Somebody out there."
The door creaked open slowly. The queen's eyes fell on the pile of books in Mama's arms. His expression stiffened slightly.
How could she not recognize this booklet. The corners of the mouth hooked. With a bitterness that is imperceptible to others. "Is this the roster for this draft? Take it. β
"Yes. Empress. Mama didn't dare to look at the queen's expression. With his head bowed, he respectfully handed over the roster.
The queen's friendship with the Lotus Emperor. How could Mama not know. I wanted to say a few words of comfort. I don't want the queen to flip through it at will. "Hmm. There are really a lot of people this time. "Actually, she didn't know. How many women here have been cultivated for a long time and are waiting for the draft to be sent to the palace. Even if she doesn't like it. There is also no right to cross out the name.
Because the people above have confessed. The more concubines around Emperor Lian, the better. The more offspring, the better.
But it's just that. She can't have children.
"Take it down. Let's just say that the main palace has seen it. β
". It doesn't matter if you delay it for two more days......"
The queen glanced at the grandmother lightly. "It dragged on for a while. Is it a lifetime? The women in this house. A few hundred or thousands more. It's the same. β
Mama sighed softly in her heart. On posture. The mother is definitely no worse than the harem beauties. But His Majesty misunderstood her so deeply. Although the two have the name of husband and wife. But there is no husband and wife. Every time I hear that the emperor flips the brand. How uncomfortable the mother's heart must be.
Mama felt sorry for the queen. But he didn't dare to say anything. After all, this qiΔ is the meaning of the master above.
"That's right. What movement can there be in Concubine Yu's palace. β
Mama shook her head. Knowing that the queen was asking the yellow girl, did she start to prepare? "Otherwise. The slave and maid went to urge. β
"Not necessarily. That girl is amazing. She wants to be the princess. I'm definitely going to do my best to prepare. β
"...... Why do you have to tolerate that little girl? "This grandmother is the queen's confidant. She knew all the secrets. At that time, Fuji said that she was going to be the princess. Mama thought that the queen would be furious. I didn't expect the queen to greet her with a smile. He also promised to give her a chance to be alone with His Highness.
"The emperor likes her dancing. Rather than let the foxes on these booklets win the favor of the emperor. It's better to let the people of this palace take advantage of the favor. β
Mama was stunned. I always felt like something wasn't quite right. However, she had been with the queen for a long time. Immediately understood what she meant. "Mother means. Or do you want that girl to be a concubine......"
At this time. The queen smiled deeply.
Not bad. She had promised to help the girl. Three days later on Lotus Lake. As long as she shows the dance of the Allure again. Definitely get what she wants. But so what? Just a word. took her as a concubine. She dared to say a word.
And the queen chose the right time. Four days later, the draft ceremony will come. And the night before. If you are lucky to be that girl. On the second day, you can be crowned a concubine. Too many processes are eliminated.
A country girl. There is a chance for her to serve His Majesty. What else could be asked. The queen felt that she was kind-hearted. There was not the slightest hint of guilt for cheating on Ferge.
At this time, Fuji did not know that she had fallen into the queen's calculations.
"Miss. The clothes of this dance of the lotus fairy. But you have to use silk ayara. β
Fungi was resting on the stone bench. "It's inconvenient, isn't it?"
"Nope. Slaves and maidservants can order people to go outside the palace......"
"No need. Don't be too eye-catching right now. There should be one in this house. Let Concubine Yu fetch it. β
"Yes."
Concubine Yu's house. "Miss wants Silk Ayara. This...... Do you want to practice dancing? β
There wasn't much expression on the servant's face. "Concubine Yu, just go and get it. When the lady runs out, she will return it in good condition. β
"No, no, no. Hongu didn't mean that. Since Miss needs it. Hongu will borrow it as much as he can. It's just that...... Miss Ruo has other needs. Hongu will give it his full support. β
The servant bowed slightly. "Miss Slave thanked Concubine Yu. Then the slave and maid will go back first. I'm waiting for the good news from my mother. She wouldn't say a word about what Regie was doing at the moment. So raw. How could Concubine Yu not feel it.
Silk Ayara. This kind of dance costume is very precious. Its cloth is as thin as silk. The breeze is blowing and fluttering. And it's soft. Generally, it is not a large-scale event. The secretary of the palace was reluctant to take it out. Concubine Yu was indeed a little embarrassed. For what reason is she going to borrow it? And who exactly is the young lady preparing for the dance. Concubine Yu was deeply worried in her heart. Because she always felt. Too much contact with the queen will cause bad things to happen.
But right now. Mademoiselle could no longer listen to her admonitions. This qiΔ blamed her for not being able to tell Miss SΓΉ in time about the queen's thoughts.
Concubine Yu is in a dilemma at the moment. borrowed words. She was afraid that she would fall for the queen's way. But if you don't borrow it. Mademoiselle must have doubted her heart.
Concubine Yu sighed deeply in her heart. One can only pray to the heavens. Let the young lady fulfill her wish safely.
"Your Highness. There was movement on Concubine Yu's side. β
So much has happened in the palace in recent days. It's all for Yun Shu. Feng Ling couldn't let go of any suspicious person. He ordered someone to check Concubine Yu's background. But they found nothing. But I found it unexpectedly. This concubine has always kept a low profile in the harem. Nor do they form parties for personal gain. But there has never been any trouble. Mingzhe has lived a safe life for many years. And the last time Fu Ya fell into the lake. It was almost the first time in so many years that she had shown her face in the harem. Could this be a coincidence?
The handsome man raised an eyebrow slightly. The man continued to preach. "Concubine Yu went to Si Weaving House today to borrow a dance costume."
"Dancing clothes." Feng Ling was silent for a moment. Concubine Yu still has that leisure and elegance. "No more news."
"Subordinates will continue to monitor."
"Also. Is there any news of that dancing girl? "Ever since Feng Ling received a note from Fuji. He immediately ordered someone to find out where she was hiding. is worthy of being the descendant of the Huaiwang family. Everything is done cleanly. Until now. Feng Ling wasn't sure if Fu Ji was still hiding somewhere in the palace.
"There's no news yet."
Feng Ling's heart seemed to be covered with a layer of dark clouds. He couldn't determine Fried's whereabouts. And there have been so many things in the palace in recent days. Could it be her trickster? But I couldn't find anyone. He is also difficult to prevent. Who knows what she's going to do next.
"Your Highness. His Majesty made an appointment with Queen Donglin to enter the palace to play a game. Ask Your Highness if you are interested in going with you. β
Feng Ling was slightly stunned. My father seems to be very idle. 'M afraid. It's to avoid people's eyes. To some people. Emperor Lianguo is naturally as leisurely as possible. But no one knew. This seems to be under the calm surface of the lake. What an undercurrent is surging.
β¦β¦
this day.
There have been some subtle changes in the Lianguo Palace. No one found out. The guards in the Lotus Lake Garden were cleverly branched out. There are several palace maids busy by the lake.
The lights are on. The sound of insects chirping came from the tranquil lake. Accompanied by a cool wind.
Dark. A few figures were there early in the morning. Just waiting for the last moments.
Concubine Yu didn't know how to do it today. A heart is seven up and eight down. She still couldn't help it. I brought the pastries to the courtyard where Fuki was.
Doorway. Two guards still blocked her way.
"The young lady rested. The mother will come back another day. β
Have a rest. Concubine Yu raised her head and looked at the full moon hanging high in the sky. Rested so early. Miss didn't want to see her. But the guards all said so. She's not easy to break in. I had to go back to my palace in frustration.
"How. King Donglin suddenly had something to do and couldn't enter the palace. I've already set up the chess game. Emperor Lian looked at the chessboard in front of him in disappointment. That's it. This Donglin King has never played cards according to common sense. This no-show is nothing. "ιxiΓ . It is better to let His Highness come down to play chess with His Majesty. β
The Grand Duke was slightly disappointed when he saw the Emperor Lian. There is such a mention yì.
"Him. That's it. I'm afraid I'll win too much. This stinky boy will say that I bullied him. Let's go. I'd better go back to the imperial study to review and fold it. β
The Grand Duke couldn't help but laugh. To know the last time. His Majesty lost to His Highness for the rest of the night. In the end, it ended in cheating.
Emperor Lian stood up. Just about to leave. But a little father-in-law greeted him.
"Qi Yu Majesty xiΓ . The palace lantern of the quadruple road has not yet been hung up. Please take Lianhu Road. β
Emperor Lian did not doubt him. I looked up at the sky. "Hmm. Just went to see the lake view. β
And the other end.
"Miss. The Empress is here. said that His Royal Highness would come to Lianhu Garden in advance today. Miss can prepare. β
