Chapter 12: The newcomer enters the cabinet
After returning to Yunyan Pavilion, Luo Yu pressed Yao Chuxi's whole body. After resting for a while, Yao Chuxi was relieved.
I walked from the back room to the front room and sat down, and found a lot of fruit on the table.
"Where did it come from?"
"Back to the little master, it was sent by Gonggong Ji, saying that it was a tribute from outside, please try it." Luoxue said.
Ji Linghai easily didn't bother anyone, he hadn't heard of him taking the initiative to be courteous to anyone in the back garden for two years, and the fruit sent today really made Yao Chuxi dare not eat it.
"Take it out and divide it with Falling Rain Jiang."
"The fruit that Gonggong Ji gave to the little master, where can the slave and maid eat it." Although Luoxue is a little greedy, she will not be confused about this kind of thing.
"Then put it aside, and wait for the emperor to come and give it to the emperor." After Yao Chuxi finished speaking, he didn't look at those fruits again.
Luo Xue reluctantly took the fruit into the side room, thinking to herself, 'Who knows when the emperor will come?' Wouldn't it be a sin to give it to the emperor if it was broken? ’
But after all, she wants to think about it, and she can't say it.
Inside the Palazzo Fule.
Concubine Qing was grounded, and the second prince naturally couldn't stay in Fule Palace, and was taken away by Pan Zhenan on the day of the grounding, saying that she was fostered in Fengluan Hall for a few days.
But these few days are enough to make Concubine Qing scratch her heart, you must know that the second prince is all her grace and all her net worth, if she is taken away by the queen once, what can she do?
When I first gave birth to this child, Concubine Qing's blood collapsed and she almost died, but she barely survived and took the medicine all day long, and it took more than two years to recuperate. The pain of giving birth in October may not be understood by others, but she knows best.
The queen had a pregnancy a few years ago, but unfortunately had a miscarriage at four months, and later gave birth to Princess Yunyi, and only because she was not a boy so she always wanted to have another boy.
The eldest princess Princess Yunjing, her biological mother Xie Meiren is not from a high background, and she is a beauty promoted by a palace maid, so she is naturally not welcomed, and the few times the emperor went to Jinhuaxuan was only for Princess Yunjing, it can be seen that she can't become a big thing.
The biological mother of the third princess Yunyu is Lin Jieyu, but she is still a Lin Jieyu for two years, which shows that she is not treated by the emperor.
It's just that he has a daughter by his side, otherwise the emperor is afraid that he won't be able to remember these two people.
Concubine Qing has always planned that although the emperor is in his prime, but the heirs are thin, she will definitely focus on the second prince for cultivation, and she only needs to be a loving mother.
But she never planned to do it before, a favored concubine suddenly appeared, even if she was just a talented person, in case she had a prince in her life, what happened to her and the second prince?
As soon as Concubine Qing thought of this, she hated, hated the queen's use, hated her own incompetence, and hated the emperor for not believing in herself.
She also knew that she was just a pawn of the queen to bring down Yao Cairen. But the queen's words are not unreasonable, and she can't help but do it. At least the queen wants to use the second prince, and the second prince is still valuable and cannot be brutalized by the harem.
And as long as he guarantees that he will not be beaten down by the queen, when the second prince inherits the throne, he will be the only queen mother!
"Yue Yang, you come."
"What's wrong, sis?" Yue Yang walked over quickly and asked.
"Why hasn't the emperor come to Fule Palace yet?"
"This..."
Concubine Qing sneered, and then understood what she didn't say.
"How many days are left until a month today?"
"Back to Niangniang, there are still more than half a month, and you have only been grounded for five days." Yue Yang said with some concern.
"Ridiculous!" Concubine Qing waved her hand, and swept all the refreshments on the square table to the ground with her sleeves, "This palace is the biological mother of the second prince!" How could you lose to a small talent! And that queen, isn't it just a month! Hongu and so on! After a month, she didn't want to send Cheng'an back to the palace obediently! ”
"That's what the mother said!" Yue Yang immediately knelt on the ground, stabilizing Concubine Qing's mood.
Fresh fruits can't help but be put away, and when they were transported into the palace from the outside, they had been bumpy for several weeks, and they had been kept in a crisper box and ice cubes, and now they were put dry in Yunyan Pavilion, and it was inevitable that the taste was not as delicious as before.
Falling Snow stared at the melons and grapes, but she was really worried.
The master said that he would wait for the emperor to come up to eat, but the emperor couldn't eat anything in the Taihe Palace? Isn't this outside tribute a part of the Taihe Palace? The master is really dead-eyed, and he has to spoil the fruit.
Luoxue sighed slightly, although she was worried, but the master's order could not be disobeyed, and as long as the master was favored, there would not be too much fruit to eat in the future?
It seems that someone knows that she is worried about fruits, and the emperor came to Yunyan Pavilion that afternoon.
I hadn't heard of the emperor often going to anyone's place in the back garden before, but now the emperor has come to Yunyan Pavilion for ten days and a half months, and I'm afraid that other people's eyes will be red.
Luoxue didn't dare to delay, walked out of the side room, and saw that Yao Chuxi had already left the east hall and knelt on the ground to greet her with the support of Luoyu, and she also took two steps quickly and knelt on Luoyu's side.
"Get up."
"Your Majesty." Yao Chuxi stretched out his hand, and Luoyu immediately took out his hands, gently let Yao Chuxi's hand on his hand, and slowly stood up.
"What a coincidence that the emperor came up, the concubine just got some fruit, can the emperor eat it?"
The emperor didn't speak at first, one hand lightly pressed Yao Chuxi's shoulder, and the other hand raised the hairpin on her head slightly, "I have already tasted it, I originally wanted to send some, Ji Linghai really understands my heart." ”
It's not a bad thing to say, but it's definitely not a good thing to say either.
"The concubine looks at the big and green melon, it must be delicious, the emperor can taste it with the concubine?"
The emperor nodded slightly.
Only then did the snow breathe a sigh of relief, and the fruit that she had been thinking about could be regarded as being handed over. Seeing her relieved look, Luo Yu couldn't help but laugh.
"What are you laughing at?"
"I laugh at you for being stupid! The little master told me in the house just now that the emperor told her last night that he was going to come to Yunyan Pavilion this afternoon, and he deliberately didn't let me tell you, so he knew that you had to worry blindly. ”
Luoxue was really embarrassed to hear it, and while washing the melon, he used the water to wash the melon and flicked the falling rain hard.
"Don't make a fuss, the emperor should be in a hurry."
As soon as the fruit here was on the table, Yao Chuxi forked a piece of honeydew melon with a silver fork.
This is really frightening to fall rain and snow, and the master is inevitably too bold? The emperor is still here, shouldn't he give it to the emperor first?
But in a blink of an eye, the emperor didn't move, but smiled, and the hanging hearts of the two of them were also put down.
"I've been here for a few times, looking at you Yunyan Pavilion is really deserted, how can these two or three people be so thoughtful?"
Yao Chuxi paused with the hand holding the silver fork, and hurriedly chewed the strawberry that had just been eaten, "The concubine thinks it's okay, and the fewer people are also quiet." ”
"That's not like that." The emperor only said this sentence and did not mention it again.
It's just that after returning to the Taihe Palace, it was obvious that the emperor's face was not too right, and Pan Zhenan didn't dare to make the emperor angry, so he motioned with his eyes to all the people in the palace to go out, don't make the emperor angry, "Your Majesty, do you want to point out a few more people to Yao Cairen to serve?" ”
The emperor didn't speak, just raised his head and glanced at him.
Just at this glance, Pan Zhenan understood, "Then the slave will go and prepare." ”
Hurriedly arrived at Ji Linghai's residence, Pan Zhenan simply said what the emperor meant, but Ji Linghai was scared clearly.
It's really not that he deliberately makes things difficult for Yunyan Pavilion, if it's really difficult, why send fruits? It's just that he, as the manager, can't wander around the residences in the back garden from time to time, where is it clear who is short of people and who is less?
Quickly flipped through the records of the palace people in the back garden, he personally found the three palace people in the Yunyan Pavilion before, and ordered them to hit the board fiercely.
Cao Meiren stopped on the side, and it didn't help. The person she asked for from Yunyan Pavilion, this board is actually slapping her in the face!
After beating the board, Ji Linghai personally went to Yunyan Pavilion to plead guilty.
This time, he really saw Yao Chuxi.
It's no wonder that the emperor is so favored, if he is really a beauty, I am afraid that there is no one comparable to him in this back garden.
"Yao Cairen also blames the slaves, they are all mismanaged by the slaves, and this trivial matter of lack of people and the emperor is really a dereliction of duty of the slaves."
"What did Gonggong Ji say?" Yao Chuxi was taken aback by this sudden incident, thinking that the emperor was just casually mentioning it, who knew that Ji Linghai was here in person?
"My father-in-law manages the entire back garden, and things are so complicated and sloppy, so it is inevitable that there will be mistakes and omissions, and I can't blame my father-in-law for everything, and I also blame my father-in-law for not communicating with my father-in-law in time."
"Talented people can understand that slaves are the blessings of slaves, where do you dare to bother talented people anymore? It won't be long before the minions will make up for the bad ones. ”
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the sky to be bright, and a few palace people lined up to enter the door of Yunyan Pavilion.
Three palace maids, three eunuchs, plus Falling Rain and Snow and Jiang Liu, there are already as many palace people as beauties.
"Father-in-law Ji, it's a little inappropriate to send such people, right?"
"Yo, look at what the talented people said, these are all carefully selected by the minions, the emperor specially instructed to send some good ones, it doesn't matter if you send a few more, then the minions dare not listen to the emperor, right?"
Yao Chuxi thought about it simply, and Ji Linghai's words were mixed with some water, at least there was some stammering.
But the words have already been said about this, and the people he sent under the emperor's order dare not accept it? I had to accept it.
The three of them were the old men of Yunyan Pavilion, so they naturally wanted to take out the appearance of the old men, and straightened their backs one by one, for fear that if anyone didn't listen to them, they would disturb the master's tranquility when the time came.
Jiang Liu directly became the chief eunuch, and there were little eunuchs under him who were diligent, and his heart was very beautiful.
And Luo Yu was not as happy as Jiang Liu and Luo Xue, but he was worried that there were no bad intentions in this wave of people who were sent, and whether they were ready to assassinate their masters.
Without waiting for Yao Chuxi to say anything, she arranged a place for these people, checked their packages, and explicitly forbade them to have direct contact with the master, saying that now the master's personal affairs do not need their help, and they are all assigned to do chores.
