Jun Huaiyu listened to the words of the imperial concubine, put down the fold in his hand, walked to the imperial concubine and sat down, and dined with her.

He's the emperor? The people in this palace are all his people, and they are also his eyeliner, how could he not know that the imperial concubine sent someone out and went to the palace, so he wanted to listen to what the imperial concubine wanted to say, and whether he took the initiative to confess the matter to him.

After he sat down, he said gently: "Concubine Ai has worked hard. ”

The imperial concubine smiled, and said very gently and considerately: "No, I can do things for the emperor, it's too late for the concubine to be happy, I haven't seen the emperor for so many days, the concubine misses you so much, I can't wait to be your maidservant to serve you." ”

"Why are you so stupid, you are my beloved concubine, how can I make you suffer, let you have an accident, and see you well? I'm relieved, and besides, I'm okay now, aren't I? You don't have to worry, we will have a long time in the future. Jun Huaiyu said.

The imperial concubine nodded, and then spoke: "Your Majesty, the concubine has something to tell you. ”

"What's the matter?" Jun Huaiyu asked quietly.

The imperial concubine replied: "Your Majesty, the concubine asked people to send 50,000 taels to the eighth prince today, and the prince donated a lot of money for the victims of Jingyang City, and the concubine's niece said that the life of the palace is now very poor, and the concubine rewarded the eighth prince with her own private money in her own name, the emperor, you won't blame the concubine for making her own opinions, right?" ”

She looked at Jun Huaiyu cautiously, for fear that Jun Huaiyu would be unhappy.

Jun Huaiyu looked at her fixedly, thinking, I am sincere.

He laughed, "How so? Eighth brother, he has worked hard and made great achievements, he should be rewarded, you have done a good job, and it is too late for me to praise you. ”

When the imperial concubine heard his compliment, she was happy, sweeter than eating sugar.

"But Aifei, if I'm not mistaken, the eighth brother's side concubine is just a concubine, how can you be so close to her, Aifei, better than Concubine Wan?" Jun Huaiyu asked.

For Jun Huaiyu, the imperial concubine will not hide it? Unless it's about herself, she won't hide it.

The imperial concubine said frankly: "Your Majesty, I won't tell you that the folk gossip about the eighth prince, the concubine is a little worried, so the concubine wants to know more about the eighth prince, so she went to befriend his side concubine, if the emperor wants to blame the concubine, the concubine is willing to accept it." ”

"You're all doing this for my sake, so how can I blame you? Do you blame you for thinking too much about me? Jun Huaiyu said with a smile.

The imperial concubine is a person who is sincere for him? But there are many people who are loyal to him, and only loyal and intelligent people can make him look the other way.

Only Lin Yue meets this condition, Lin Yue is not only loyal to him, but also extremely intelligent, and can help him in many things, instead of messing around like an imperial concubine.

The imperial concubine is indeed dedicated to him, but sometimes the things he does are too stupid and tiresome, and there are some things you can not help, but you can't add to the chaos.

Although the imperial concubine did a good job in this matter, it was just this matter, and many times it was actually a disservice.

Unlike Lin Yue, she gave advice to Jun Huaiyu more than directly helping him make decisions.

If Jun Huaiyu decides to use her method, she will help him, not seeking merit, but seeking no fault.

And Jun Huaiyu is an emperor, he doesn't need others to help him make decisions, what he needs is a strategist, he can actually deal with many things, and he doesn't necessarily need others to help him.

Therefore, Jun Huaiyu appreciates Lin Yue's intelligence and knowledge of advance and retreat more than the recklessness of the imperial concubine.

But after all, this is the imperial concubine's hard work, and he will not criticize her, which will discourage her enthusiasm to do things for herself, and it will make her sad, so he didn't say anything to him.

Who said that only women are wrong-hearted, including men, especially the emperor's mind, which is more difficult to guess than a woman's mind, and the king is like a tiger.

The imperial concubine didn't know what he was thinking, she just thought that what Jun Huaiyu said was what he thought in his heart.

Hearing Jun Huaiyu say that, she was very happy in her heart, and said softly: "It is also a blessing for the concubines to be able to share the emperor's worries, as long as she can help the emperor." ”

Jun Huaiyu nodded and asked, "Then have you heard anything abnormal?" ”

Hearing this, the imperial concubine's eyes changed, and then returned to normal, but she was still caught by the sharp-eyed Jun Huaiyu.

Jun Huaiyu's face was silent, but he understood in his heart that the imperial concubine had indeed gotten some news, and this news was not good for the Li family, so she would have this kind of reaction.

What he is more curious about now is how the imperial concubine will choose between him and the Li family? Will there be some favoritism towards the Li family and some family affection?

I only heard the imperial concubine reply: "No, the emperor, although the eighth prince loves Yingyun, he will not talk too much about national affairs with Yingyun, so Yingyun doesn't know the prince's thoughts." ”

A trace of disappointment flashed in Jun Huaiyu's heart, he really thought that the imperial concubine would stand on his side without hesitation, even if it was to do something unfavorable to the Li family, it seemed that he did not have enough weight in her heart!

China's well-known double standard, if Lin Yuejun Huaiyu is replaced, I am afraid that she will think that she values love and righteousness; But when it came to the imperial concubine, he disliked that the imperial concubine was not loyal enough to him.

Jun Huaiyu said with a smile: "It's good that there is no abnormality, the imperial brother is loyal to me, and he has done so much for the people of Chengqi, how can he have two stars?" It's just those who have a heart who speculate about him in an attempt to sow discord between him and me. ”

The imperial concubine echoed with some weakness: "What the emperor said is that the emperor will inherit the enlightenment in the hands of the eighth prince, and the eighth prince will indeed do his best to handle political affairs for the emperor, without any unusual actions, I think it is all nonsense from those people, right?" ”

After all, this matter is related to the Li family, and now that Li Yi's official position is no longer guaranteed, it is unlikely that he wants to really turn the sky upside down, so the imperial concubine doesn't think that the plan of the eighth prince and Li Yi can threaten Jun Huaiyu? In this case, she is willing to favor some of her relatives and at least save their lives.

It's a pity that the man in front of her is extremely smart and sharp-minded, how can he not see the small way in her heart.

She lied like this and concealed it for the Li family, so that Jun Huaiyu didn't even have the last good impression of her.

Originally, Jun Huaiyu admired that the imperial concubine put him first, but now she is hiding something from him, or hiding it in such an important matter, which makes Jun Huaiyu not like it very much.

Jun Huaiyu held back the dislike in his heart, smiled and said: "What Concubine Ai said is that the eighth brother really has no disagreement with me, let alone disappointed me, and I will not doubt him." ”
