I stood aside, guessing his thoughts, the matter of not being close to him is estimated to have been resolved, but the matter of Xifu is estimated to have not passed.

Even if he has a reasonable explanation, it is still suspicious to like such a sensitive thing.

Ye Ting looked at it seriously, as if he could find any clues from it, but fortunately, I embroidered slowly, and there was no out-of-the-ordinary pattern on it, no different from ordinary wedding clothes.

I stood there and tried to reduce my sense of existence, would he blame the Lin family for this? I entered the palace because of the Lin family, and it would be a pity if the efforts and sacrifices I made before I was in vain because of a wedding dress.

I thought about it, and saw that it was not early outside, the sun was high, and the flowers in the garden were wilting because of the noon sun.

Ye Tingshen still held the wedding dress and didn't let go, I stepped forward and asked in a low voice beside him: "Your Majesty, it's almost time for lunch, do you want to use some here for the concubines?"

During this time, I heard that Ye Tingshen was busy with government affairs, and he usually did not stay in the harem, let alone dine at the concubines.

I said this just to remind him that it was not too early, and there were still a lot of twists and turns waiting for him in the imperial study, so it was better to invite this great god back quickly.

Ye Ting raised his eyebrows, and a trace of surprise crossed his eyes, the person who usually even had to retreat from getting along took the initiative to invite him to stay for dinner, which was a rare thing.

Then it occurred to me that maybe the words just now had a role in making her say so.

Either way, his purpose has been achieved.

Sitting up, he raised his hand to signal me to tidy up his cuffs, and waited until he finished cleaning up before he said leisurely, "Indeed, I haven't tasted the craftsmanship of Concubine Ai's small kitchen here, so let's eat here today." ”

After speaking, he asked the eunuch who followed him to inform the imperial dining room and send some dishes directly to the Xiwu Palace.

I couldn't help but hold my forehead, I just wanted to ask this person away, how could I really agree.

But the words have already been spoken, and they can't take it back, so they have to arrange for Qiushui to hurry up and get ready, act carefully, and don't make a mistake.

The cook in the small kitchen heard that the emperor was going to eat here, and he couldn't wait to take out all the things he had learned all his life, if it weren't for the low status of the Xiwu Palace, some ingredients would not be distributed here at all, otherwise the table might not be able to fit down.

Looking at the sumptuous dishes, I pursed my lips slightly, there were some things she hadn't even seen, Ye Tingshen looked at my embarrassed appearance and smiled, and ate with chopsticks on her own.

Needless to say, the taste is naturally first-class, but compared to the relishing of the deep food in the night, I eat the same as chewing wax.

In order not to be too obtrusive, I had to pick a few random dishes that I liked to eat, and most of the rest were all rice in the bowl.

Ye Tingshen's mood is obviously very good, and sometimes he even gives me cloth vegetables, and the palace maids who are waiting on the side laugh one after another.

The master's favor is naturally what they are happy to see, so that their status in the palace will be much higher, and they don't have to look at other people's faces wherever they go.

I felt like a year, and the moment I put down the chopsticks after Ye Tingshen finished eating, the whole person breathed a sigh of relief.

This time there were no big twists and turns, after drinking the mouthwash, the eunuch next to him whispered a few words in his ear, and he left the Xiwu Palace.

I obediently sent the people out of the palace, and I didn't soften until I couldn't see anyone.

Protesting everywhere in my body, in a short period of time, I was scared and kneeling, and I ate an absent-mental meal, and my energy was already exhausted.

Qiushui saw my discomfort and walked next to me so that I could use my strength to walk back into the room.

"It should be gratifying to be favored this time."

When the people who didn't know why saw me coming back, they came over to say goodbye, and I waved my hand weakly, so that Qiushui would reward them with a little silver at will.

The sweat on my body has dried, and I can't bear it, so I have to let the palace people come back with a bucket of hot water and take a simple bath and lie on the bed to rest.

When I slept until the afternoon, the heavy bed shielded me from the harsh sunlight and allowed me to rest for a while.

After redressing and dressing up, Qiushui stepped forward with a plate holding a familiar thing, looking embarrassed.

"It's always here, the wedding dress has become like this, I don't know if the Huanyi Bureau can wash it back to its original appearance."

The wedding dress on the plate has been wrinkled, and the stains stained on it have become lumps, which have not been treated in time and have been printed into the fabric, unless the piece is cut off, there is no possibility of washing it at all.

I looked at Xifu deeply, as if I saw my unspeakable feelings, which were not dealt with in time, and in the end I could only get a result of giving up.

"Put it away, you don't have to wash it, and I won't embroider anymore." I turned my head to the side, not wanting to look again.

"I've been embroidering for so long, and they're all often embroidered with a needle and a thread, wouldn't it be a pity to give up like this?" Qiushui exclaimed and couldn't help but ask.

How much effort did I spend on this happy dress, and I saw it in my eyes, and I gave up so easily, which is really distressing.

"If it's dirty, it's dirty, there's no need to embroider it again, and the second brother is not bad for me to embroider this wedding dress, so don't take it out again from now on." I snapped.

Qiushui bit her lip, but still whispered yes, and then walked out of the door with the plate in her hand, just as she collided with the white deer who was about to come in.

The wedding clothes fell to the ground, and they were stained with a lot of dust, and the white deer stepped on it in order to hold on to the autumn water.

Bai Lu saw what he stepped on, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly stepped back.

"Why did you take out the wedding dress, it's over, I stepped on it, will the master drive me away?" Bailu was completely panicked, and took care of me inside, deliberately lowered his voice, but he was still heard clearly.

"The master doesn't want it anymore, so I'll put away the wedding clothes." Qiushui stabilized his mind, he didn't want to take care of Bailu more, so he picked up the wedding clothes and was about to go out.

"Don't want it? How is it possible, the master cares about this dress very much. Bailu was no less surprised than Qiushui, and his voice was a little louder.

I couldn't help coughing dryly, and Bailu realized that I had heard what he said and immediately ran in.

"Master, it's not a pity to hide such a good wedding dress." Bailu tried to persuade me to take back my suit.

I shook my head, "This wedding dress can no longer be embroidered, the emperor has seen it, this time he can not care, if he sees it again, it is estimated that he will not let us go so easily." ”

This wedding dress has become a hot potato, even if it can be neat and new, I don't dare to take this risk, this wedding dress is better to put away.

Bailu thought for a long time before he understood what I meant, and sighed, although it was a pity, he still felt that what I said made some sense, so he had no choice but to ignore it.

I don't know where the wedding dress was put by the autumn water, and I don't want to ask again, as if it had never been, and disappeared from my life.

After a good night's sleep, my mental state is obviously much better, and I don't want to pay attention to the rumors outside, after all, the news that the emperor is dining here will soon spread to the whole palace.

At that time, it will definitely be another bloody storm, and when I think of that situation, it is still a matter of Concubine Shu, my temples begin to hurt.

Qiushui saw that my face was uncomfortable, put down the things in my hand, wiped my hands clean with a handkerchief, and gently pressed my temples, which made me feel a lot more comfortable.

"Don't think too much about it, now that the emperor still loves you, they still have to be a little jealous." Autumn water whispered in my ear.

As for the people in her mouth, they are nothing more than concubines in this harem.

"I'd rather not have this favor, not only to save my life, but also to live a peaceful life."

Qiushui's craftsmanship is very good, I comfortably close my eyes and enjoy it, whispering, I don't know if Qiushui heard it, anyway, it doesn't respond to me anymore.

Just when I was drowsy, the subordinates outside ran in, and before I could make a sound, I was scolded by Qiushui in a low voice, "What does it look like to be in a panic, the master has already slept." ”

"Master Liu is here, and he is already waiting outside, and the slave and maid are here to tell the master." The palace maid knelt on the ground and deliberately lowered her voice.

"You wait a while, go over and tell Master Liu......" Qiushui thought for a while before saying, but was interrupted by a voice.

"I haven't slept yet, the guests have already come, how can there be a reason to make the guests wait for a long time, you just give me a haircut." I got up from the couch and said lightly to Qiushui.

I changed into a palace dress when I first got up, and now I don't even need to change my clothes, as long as I tidy up my messy hair, I can go out to meet guests.

I'm afraid that the snow will wait for a long time, so I will ask Qiushui to help me fix my hair with a hosta.

When I came to the front hall, Liu Xue saw that she was sitting on a chair and drinking tea, and when she heard the movement, she looked up, and immediately put down the teacup and walked towards me.

Today she is also wearing a very simple one, the lake green dress shows her slender figure even more, and it is a little more gentle.

"I wanted to come over to see you in the morning, but I didn't expect the emperor to be here, so I didn't come to bother me, and I didn't come until after the emperor left." She took my hand and inexplicably gave me a sense of security.

The harem of her and Concubine Shu is well known, except for the queen, no concubine dares to get too close to me on the cusp, or else she will be against Concubine Shu.

Liu Xue has seen that she is obviously on a team with her, and the worry in her eyes can't be faked, she is really worried about my situation.

"It's okay, I know why you're here, I know this matter in my heart, and you have to keep a distance from me, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."

My voice was unconsciously soft, but I took her hand and pulled her into the inner room, where all the palace people had withdrawn, and there were only two of them in the whole room.

Liu Xue saw that she looked around and made sure that there was no one, so she leaned over and asked in a low voice: "I heard that when the emperor was here with you, I was about to die of fright, how about it, the emperor didn't embarrass you, right?"

I resisted the emperor's affairs, and Liu Xuejian knew it for a long time, and because of this, she felt scared instead of happy for me.

As for Ye Tingshen, although it scared me a lot, the place that should be punished was indeed regarded as not being seen, and for a while I didn't know if he had embarrassed me.

My silence made Yukimi anxious, and she couldn't help but pat the back of my hand and urge, "What the hell, if I really embarrass you, I'll ......"

It was only halfway through that he realized that the other party was the son of a country, and the lives of his whole family were in the hands of the other party, and there was really no place for our two women to threaten him.

"Look at you, don't worry, if you really embarrass me, I won't stand in front of her soundly." I poured her a glass of water to soothe her restless heart.

She breathed a sigh of relief and patted herself, "That's good, that's good, then what's next, I heard that the emperor has been here for a short time." ”

"Later, there was nothing to do, that is, I invited him to stay for dinner, but I didn't expect him to agree." I muttered for a moment, and said the only strange thing.

Liu Xue's eyes lit up, and she didn't even remember to drink the tea in front of her, so she put down the cup and came over, "You said you left him here to eat, and he agreed?" ”

I looked at her suspiciously, remembered what I had just said, there should be no place to say wrong, and nodded.

"You are really enlightened, you actually took the initiative to invite the emperor to stay, and if you continue like this, you will definitely be able to keep the emperor's people."

Liu Xue hugged me with relief, I was a little confused, and taking the initiative to stay here to eat here is enlightenment? I just want him not to be angry with the Lin family.

"Forget it, you don't understand, now we don't have the capital to gain a foothold in the palace, and the ranking is not as high as that of other concubines, and we don't have any connections, if you can open up, I will be able to rest assured."

Liu Xue happily hugged one of my arms, and the joy on her face was obvious.
