Chapter 31: Accompanying the King Like a Tiger (1)
Instructed the small kitchen to cook several of the emperor's favorite dishes, prepare the dragon well before the rain that he rewarded, and carefully told Xiao Han who served the tea - I don't want to anger Long Yan because of the tea.
The emperor arrived at the Chengming Palace on time, I picked up in front of the palace, he got off the step, the tooth-colored round neck group dragon casual clothes, the neckline is golden, and the cloud pattern is embroidered with gold thread, very noble.
"Get up," he said lightly, looking at me condescendingly, "I'll see how you've moved into the main hall." ”
I got up and followed him, he was tall, with broad shoulders and his hands behind his back, and glanced at the furnishings of the main hall, without special praise or harsh criticism, but said casually: "The Chengming Hall is secluded, but it is a little far away from my dormitory." ”
The queen lives in his apse, which is naturally the closest, and Concubine Zheng's Guan Ju Palace and Concubine Chengqian's Palace are all close to Zichen Palace. But they are favorite concubines, and they are the biological mother of the prince, what am I! I laughed in my heart and couldn't help pouting.
He entered the hall and sat down, and I was busy letting people serve tea, watching him slowly and methodically plucking the tea leaves, and waiting for him to take a sip with trepidation. He paused and said, "This tea ......"
I hurriedly said: "This tea was just rewarded by the emperor yesterday, and the concubines haven't had time to drink it yet, so I don't know...... What does the emperor think?"
He nodded slightly, and said, "The tribute tea before the rain is naturally good, what, haven't you tasted it yet?"
I smiled and said, "Since the emperor likes it, the concubines will stay and wait for the emperor to come up." In fact, the concubines like tea after the rain. ”
He looked at me and said, "The tea taste of tea after the rain is light, don't you like to drink strong tea?"
I shook my head with a smile and said, "The taste of tea is too strong, and the concubines feel bitter, and the concubines don't like to suffer hardship." ”
"Oh?" he curled the corners of his lips, still smiling but not smiling. Is it true that all emperors are like this, and never want to see any information from his expression?
I lowered my head and asked in a low voice, "Is the emperor hungry?"
He stood up and said, "I've been approving the excerpts for the afternoon, I'm really a little hungry, let's set the meal!" He walked up to me, suddenly took my hand, and asked in a low voice, "Are you feeling better?"
My face turned red and I nodded haphazardly, and then he let go of me and walked to the table and sat down for dinner.
It did take me half a month to recover from that night's toss.
I wonder if he'll stay tonight...... I'm so stupid, if it's just dinner, why should someone from the Shang's Sleeping Bureau come to inform me?
Sneaking up to look at him, he was engrossed in eating.
He seems to be very attentive in everything he does, including in bed.
I was in a trance at the thought of him asking me to call him by his name.
"Why? You don't like the food in your own temple?" he looked at me, a little displeased.
I was busy saying no, so I randomly sandwiched a piece of fish fillet and ate it, but fortunately the fillet was not spine.
After dinner, sitting in the inner room, he was reading on the chaise longue, and I sat bored, not knowing what to do.
He read the book for a long time, and I was stunned for a long time.
"Rest. He said,
The bed was already made, I gave him a wide coat, the quiet pin drop in the inner room could be heard, and under the candlelight, I frequently thought of the madness of that night, and my face involuntarily turned red.
I am ambivalent.
On the one hand, I don't want to be killed by being pampered, but on the other hand, I hope that the few favors I have will give me a child, because he has not yet given me nine incense. But I'm even more afraid, now that my foundation is not stable, and I'm still young, if I get pregnant at this time, I'm afraid that not only will I not be able to give birth to the emperor's heir, but I won't even be able to save my own life!
My waist suddenly tightened, and I was hugged by him again: "What are you thinking? ”
"Concubine...... The concubine was thinking, the emperor's holy will was unpredictable, and the concubine really didn't know what to do. "I'm not getting bigger, and he's so tall that I can only reach his waist when I stand close to him like this. I raised my head, looked at his deep eyes, and asked a little innocently: "Didn't the emperor say that he was not going to be promoted to the position of concubine......?"
"Do you want to say that the order of the world will change?" his face suddenly sank.
My heart jumped suddenly, and I hurriedly knelt down: "The concubine doesn't dare!"
"Hmph!" he shook his sleeves and turned away.
I knelt in place until the spring equinox and Gu Yu came in and helped me up, telling me that the emperor was gone. They tried to help me up, but my legs went limp, so they had to help me sit on the edge of the bed.
"Mother, your palms are full of sweat, and your back is wet...... Do you want to go to the shower and change clothes?" Gu Yu said worriedly.
I realized how scared I was just now, one second I was still in his arms, the next second he threw his sleeves away, although he never surrendered, but I have deeply felt that the companion is like a tiger.
It's like in my previous life, if you didn't listen to my explanation, you sent me to the cold palace and gave me death.
It seems that in the future, I can't be so clever anymore! It's really too wrong to say too much, I'd rather say less!
I had no sleep all night, and when I got up in the morning, there was a black green in my eyes, and when I went to say goodbye, everyone looked at me with mockery.
Yes, they have just been promoted, but they let the emperor brush their sleeves away when they were sleeping, such a big joke, how could they not catch it and ridicule it!
I could only bow my eyebrows and turn a deaf ear to the cynicism.
The queen stopped those words, and the concubine also comforted me, in fact, I didn't feel anything about them, but the emperor's attitude really made me feel uneasy.
I have been terrified in my heart, who knew that in the afternoon, I felt dizzy and feverish, and the spring equinox was going to go to Queen Yuming to find me a doctor, I said to her: "The Shen Yizheng who asked you to check last time, if it is feasible, I invited him to come, just don't be deliberate." ”
"Yes, slave and maid understand. ”
She went for a while, and sure enough, she brought back a young and handsome imperial doctor, but the corners of her eyes and eyebrows were full of untamed. The spring equinox nodded slightly to me, and I understood that the person in front of me was the son of the Shen family.
"Niangniang is worried about it, caused by palpitations and fright, Weichen opened a prescription, and Niangniang ate it first. However, heart disease still needs heart medicine, if the mother can relax her heart, the disease will get better faster. His voice was clear and he spoke very quickly, and it was really different from the average old pedant.
Through the curtain, I said thank you, let Gu Yu take the recipe with him, and let the spring equinox reward.
"Niangniang doesn't have to bother, this is a matter of Weichen's responsibility. "He really didn't care about it.
I smiled and said, "I'm afraid I'll have to trouble Shen Yizheng in the future, so you can take these first! If you insist on not wanting to, it will seem stingy in this palace." ”
He was stunned for a moment, so he had to accept it.
I smiled faintly, and he was willing to accept it, indicating that we would have a chance to meet in the future.
