Chapter 107: Trust
Knowing that Yan Lingyue was making fun of him, Zhou Ziyu opened her hand angrily. Rolled over and gave her a back.
"What's wrong?" Yan Lingyue smiled and reached out to wrap her arms around Zhou Ziyu's waist.
Zhou Ziyu ignored her.
Yan Lingyue shook Zhou Ziyu and half-leaned on his back, "Huh? What's going on? ”
Zhou Ziyu glared at Yan Lingyue, and said angrily, "Could it be that you are not worried about what kind of woman I chose to enter the palace at all?" ”
Yan Lingyue said, "What is there to worry about. ”
Zhou Ziyu glared at her again, "What if a beautiful woman takes me away?" ”
"Then you have to be able to be hooked," Yan Lingyue lowered her head and kissed Zhou Ziyu's cheek, and said softly, "No matter what kind of women you choose to enter the palace or how many women you choose to enter the palace, I don't have to worry, because I know that your heart is with me." ”
Your heart is with me...... Yan Lingyue's words made Zhou Ziyu stunned in place, half loud, and said in a daze, "Yue'er trusts me so much?" ”
Yan Lingyue smiled and buried her head in Zhou Ziyu's arms, "Because of love, so trust." ”
Looking at Yan Lingyue's smiling appearance, Zhou Ziyu's heart moved, and she lowered her head and choked her lips.
Looking at Zhou Ziyu's slightly closed eyes, her mind once again sounded the words that Wang Lao Jushi told her to give birth to a little prince as soon as possible. Zhou Ling'an is more than a year old, and now there are so many new faces in the palace, no matter what aspect it is, she should really want a little prince by her side.
Does she really trust Zhou Ziyu so much? Is she really not worried at all? The answer, of course, is no. Thinking like this, Yan Lingyue reached out and hugged Zhou Ziyu's waist tightly.
From the primary election at the end of last year to the palace election at the beginning of spring this year, it lasted more than three months, and the final selection of 30 women was finally arranged, and they all lived in their respective palaces.
Empress Dowager Xiao has been talking to Mama Zhou that there are too few concubines selected into the palace, but these more than 30 are already Zhou Ziyu's limit, after all, he was unwilling to accept concubines before, thinking so, Empress Dowager Xiao's heart is finally more comfortable.
As the lord of the first house, Yan Lingyue has never participated in the selection of concubines from beginning to end, and now that the overall situation has been decided, she naturally wants to show her face in front of the concubines. On the morning of the third day of the concubines' entry into the palace, Yan Lingyue summoned everyone.
The thirty concubines filled the entire hall, and their eyes swept over the women who were fat and thin, and Yan Lingyue said that it didn't feel fake at all. Although she is the queen, it can't change the fact that she wants to share Zhou Ziyu's favor with them.
Listening to everyone's compliments, Yan Lingyue always had a smile on her face. But it didn't take long for Qiu Shuang to come over with Zhou Ling'an, who had a handful of snot and tears.
"Mother...... Queen Mother, "As soon as she saw Yan Lingyue, Zhou Ling'an cried even more aggrieved, and stretched out her hand to hug her."
The concubines in the hall inevitably praised the king's favorite little princess when they saw it. Zhou Ling'an, who had just stopped crying, was stunned when she saw so many people staring at her, and cried again with a "wow".
was tossed by Zhou Ling'an like this, and the concubines couldn't stay in Ming Hanxuan for a long time, so everyone got up and retired. Yan Lingyue was coaxing Zhou Ling'an, and when she looked up by chance, she saw an unusually familiar figure sitting in the corner.
"Gu Yun?" Yan Lingyue was stunned and handed Zhou Ling'an, who was still sobbing, to Qiushuang.
Gu Yun, who had been sitting quietly in the corner, got up and walked in front of Yan Lingyue after the other concubines left, "Sister Yue, long time no see." ”
Rao is Mama Li was shocked, "Gu ...... Miss Gu, why are you here? ”
Gu Yun looked at Yan Lingyue with embarrassment, "Not long after Sister Yue and Brother Yu left the Prince's Mansion, a father-in-law came, saying that it was someone from the Queen Mother's side, and he also asked me about my background and asked if I wanted to enter the palace. Afterward...... Later, I didn't know what was going on, so I was on the list of candidates, and I really entered the palace by sending a ghost. ”
After Gu Yun left, Yan Lingyue didn't come to her senses for a long time.
At the same time, Zhou Ziyu, who was reviewing the folds in the imperial study, took over the roster handed over by Zhang Yu.
"From tonight onwards, the king is going to start flipping the cards, so let's recognize people in advance," Zhang Yu said.
Zhou Ziyu pressed his eyebrows and threw the roster on the table casually, "Who said that Gu was going to turn over the cards today?" ”
"Of course it's the Queen Mother," Zhang Yu straightened the roster, helped Zhou Ziyu open the booklet, and introduced it one by one from top to bottom.
When he heard Gu Yun's name, Zhou Ziyu's body shook and sat up suddenly, "Who are you talking about?" ”
As Zhou Ziyu's personal follower, Zhang Yu also knew Gu Yun, and he also stuttered at the moment, "This is this...... Minions, let's go see what's going on? After the words fell, Zhang Yu ran out with the hem of his clothes and rolled on the ground. After a while, he ran back with a booklet and shouted, "My master, this Miss Gu is really your choice." ”
Zhou Ziyu was stunned, and snatched the booklet from Zhang Yu's hand, Gu Yun's name did have a big red circle on it. Zhou Ziyu's head suddenly became bigger, remembering that a few days ago, Empress Dowager Xiao asked him to choose a concubine after leaving the court, he was a little impatient, so he took the brush, waved his pen, and circled a few people on the roster casually. He didn't care about it at the time, but now that he thinks about it, it must have been at that time that Gu Yun was selected by him to enter the palace by mistake.
"This morning, the queen has announced that she has met with all the little masters, and she must have seen Miss Gu at this moment......"
Without waiting for Zhang Yu to finish speaking, Zhou Ziyu threw down the booklet in his hand and ran towards Ming Hanxuan. At that time, Yan Lingyue was nesting on the soft collapse, watching Zhou Lingan crawl around. Seeing Zhou Ziyu's panting appearance, he smiled, "What's wrong?" In a hurry. ”
Zhou Ziyu looked at Yan Lingyue in a daze, and instructed everyone, "Mama Li takes Ling'an, let's go outside to play first." ”
As soon as she saw Zhou Ziyu's expression, she knew that the masters had something to say, and Mama Li immediately left the room with Zhou Ling'an in her arms.
Looking at the closed door, Yan Lingyue raised her eyebrows.
Zhou Ziyu got straight to the point, "Has Yue'er seen Gu Yun?" ”
Yan Lingyue was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Zhou Ziyu's lips pursed, strode up to her, raised his hand and pinched her chin, "Didn't think much about it?" ”
Looking at Zhou Ziyu's deep eyes, at this moment, a trace of fear suddenly flashed in Yan Lingyue's heart. Zhou Ziyu is her husband, but he is also the emperor of the Great Zhou. Now she really has to rely on Zhou Ziyu to get everything. So her answer had to satisfy him.
Yan Lingyue curled her lips and smiled, holding Zhou Ziyu's hand, "How can I say it, the moment I first saw Miss Gu, countless thoughts did flash through my mind, and for a moment I wondered if Ziyu had lied to me in the first place." Later, when I calmed down and thought about it, I felt that my thoughts were quite ridiculous. If Ziyu really likes Miss Gu and wants to admit Miss Gu into the palace without telling me, then she can completely hide Miss Gu's whereabouts before, and there is no need to let me know her existence. ”
"Besides, Ziyu is the king, and all the women in this harem, including me, must depend on the king to survive. Ziyu can accept whoever she wants to be a concubine, there is no reason at all, and there is no need to think about it. ”
"No," Zhou Ziyu pulled Yan Lingyue into his arms, "Yue'er never needs to be attached to me. ”
Zhou Ziyu hugged Yan Lingyue tightly and said, "I'm really afraid that Yue'er will doubt me and misunderstand me......"
Listening to Zhou Ziyu's muttering, Yan Lingyue could really feel his heart. At this moment, she suddenly felt quite ridiculous. From beginning to end, Zhou Ziyu never did anything to hurt her. It's her, all kinds of worries and all kinds of suspicions. It was she who gradually valued her own interests more than her feelings for Zhou Ziyu.
Zhou Ziyu, who became the emperor, has not changed, but she has changed first. Yan Lingyue, who was aware of this fact, her heart sank suddenly.
After Zhou Ziyu left that afternoon, he did not return to Ming Hanxuan. Listening to Mama Li, Zhou Ziyu did not turn over the card, but went directly to Shufang Palace, that is, the palace where Gu Yun lived.
This is the first time that Zhou Ziyu has stayed overnight in other palaces since Yan Lingyue proclaimed herself. Mama Li and the others were worried that their young lady would feel uncomfortable, so they hugged Zhou Lingan to Yan Lingyue's side.
The other concubines who entered the palace with Gu Yun heard that there was a little-known little Cai girl in the current saint, and their eyes widened, paying attention to the situation in Shufang Palace.
Duan Nianyun, who lived alone in the Youlan Palace, listened to the maidservant's advice, and trembled with anger. She has been in the palace for several months, and Zhou Ziyu has never set foot in the Youlan Hall except for dinner with her on the first day she entered the palace. Watching Zhou Ziyu go to Yan Lingyue every day, she was unconvinced at the beginning, and then gradually accepted this fact. She could only comfort herself, after all, the good relationship between Zhou Ziyu and Yan Lingyue was well known to everyone.
Zhou Ziyu favors Yan Lingyue alone, she can accept it. This at least means that she is not worse than others, but Zhou Ziyu's heart is not in her. She didn't lose to anyone, she just lost to Zhou Ziyu's heart. But now that the newcomer has just entered the palace for a few days, there are other women who have been pampered?!
Duan Nianyun couldn't accept it!
"What is the origin of that picker?" Duan Nianyun rubbed the silk handkerchief in his hand and gritted his teeth.
The maid shook her head, "I haven't heard of Gu Cainu. From the beginning of the selection of concubines, this Gu Cai girl was quite low-key. The background must not be much better. ”
"Really?" Duan Nianyun sneered and smashed the porcelain on the case.
Seeing this, the maidservant hurriedly knelt on the ground to pick up the broken porcelain pieces.
Looking at the figure of the servant girl who faded in a hurry, Duan Nianyun slapped the case hard.
"Yo, what do you do with such a big temper? Let this prince see if his hand hurts," At this moment, a figure flickered by behind the bookshelf.
