Chapter 994: Gentle and Considerate, Know Advance and Retreat
Jiang Yao blinked her innocent big eyes, looked at Qianqin, and asked ignorantly: "What does my sister mean, as long as your heart is free, do whatever you want?" ”
Wen Qin nodded, hiding the smile on his mouth, looking at the problem or seeing himself more transparently.
"So girl, since you are going around and around or returning to the emperor, you will stay, stay with the emperor for years, have children, and be a pair of beautiful people......"
Jiang Yao turned around and looked at herself in the mirror, the beauty mole between her eyebrows and eyes had changed from gray to red, and she looked a little charming between her eyebrows and eyes.
She looked at her pair of peach blossom eyes, and in the blink of an eye, she was full of shyness looking forward to Duan Jingyan's figure.
Wenqin put hairpins on her and dressed like a princess, Jiang Yao couldn't wait to stand up and walk outside the hall. "I'll wait for him in front, aunt, I want to eat pig's trotters and roast chicken at noon."
"Yes, the slave will tell the imperial dining room to prepare lunch."
Jiang Yao walked lightly in the long corridor, and the copper bell around the waist of her shirt rang exceptionally brightly.
Just as she was walking to the inner hall, she heard footsteps outside, so she smiled playfully, hid behind a screen of landscape paintings, and looked in the direction of the temple door through the faint light.
At this time, Duan Jingyan had also walked outside the palace gate, and happened to see Concubine Wan waiting in front of the palace.
Now that it is autumn, the weather is cold in the early morning, and Concubine Wan stands outside the palace gate, tightens her clothes, and sneezes.
Jiaxiu, who was behind him, hurriedly stepped forward and said worriedly: "Niangniang, why don't Jiaxiu go back and get a cloak, it won't be good if you feel the wind cold again......"
Concubine Wan waved her hand and said, "No need, the emperor estimates that he is about to go down." ”
Just when she turned her head sideways, Duan Jingyan had already walked up the white jade steps and walked towards the palace gate.
"Your Majesty, is this just going down to court? The concubine stewed lotus seed white fungus soup, and the emperor was worried about the government and government, so he should clear his heart. ”
"What?"
Duan Jingyan looked at the uninvited Concubine Wan, frowned slightly, Concubine Wan smiled softly, took out a document from her sleeve, and said, "Today is the day when the show girls of Wanxiu Pavilion stay in the harem...... Ahh ”
Wan Guifei raised her eyes and looked at Duan Jingyan in a panic, Duan Jingyan stood at the door, looking at her with deep eyes, he always hated Wan Guifei, and he couldn't be cold.
"It's cold in the morning, in order to wear so little, you should add an extra cloak when you go out, how to serve your master as a slave!"
Duan Jingyan's words softened, with a hint of reprimand, but Wan Guifei saw a burst of joy in her eyes, and she was slightly concerned, as if she was flattered.
"Back to the emperor, the mother personally boiled porridge, and hurriedly sent it over, not even wearing a cloak, standing outside the palace gate for an hour. The slave and maid can't persuade the mother ......"
Jiang Yao could hear it clearly, it was Duan Jingyan and Concubine Wan outside the palace gate, and she could hear Duan Jingyan's concern for her in her words, Jiang Yao's mouth pursed jealously, and her brows were furrowed.
Sixi, who was standing at the gate of the hall, kept lifting the curtain for Duan Jingyan, Duan Jingyan walked in, and couldn't bear it in his heart: "Come in and warm up." ”
Concubine Wan's eyes suddenly widened, the starlight was flickering inside, as if there were thousands of emotions circulating, she lowered her head gently, leaned over and walked in with Duan Jingyan.
In the incense burner in the hall, ambergris was slowly burning, Duan Jingyan walked to the dragon chair and sat down, Jiaxiu put the porridge on Duan Jingyan's table, and Concubine Wan opened the casserole and served a bowl for Duan Jingyan.
Seeing that there was still a little steam, she put it in front of Duan Jingyan and said, "The emperor has never liked porridge that is too hot, but at this time, is it appetizing for the emperor to taste it?" ”
Duan Jingyan still gave a taste of face, and said: "Concubine Wan has always had the gentleness of a Jiangnan woman, and this soup is also salty and delicious, which is very good." ”
It was the first time that Concubine Wan had heard Duan Jingyan boast about herself like this, with a blushing smile on her face: "If the emperor likes to eat, the concubines will often cook it for the emperor in the future." ”
Jiang Yao, who was hiding behind the screen, originally just wanted to take a peek at Duan Jingyan, but she didn't expect to see such an almost affectionate scene, she bit her lip tightly, and there seemed to be a growing anger in her heart.
After returning to this harem, she will not be the only one in this palace, she has to serve Duan Jingyan with the women of the six courtyards of this palace, dozens of concubines, thinking of this, her palms clenched, and her heart is extremely uncomfortable.
Concubine Wan looked at Duan Jingyan and didn't speak again, so she put the document she was going to write in front of Duan Jingyan.
"The concubine thinks that Qiao of the Qiao family is very beautiful, presumably the emperor will like it, and the eyebrows and eyes are also a little imaginary with the emperor, and the concubine has a Jieyu and gives her a place to live in the Wu Palace.
Sheng Jiang Xiu of the Sheng family is knowledgeable and reasonable, but he lacks some calmness, and he is a beauty, and he lives in Juyayuan......"
With a smile on her face, she told Duan Jingyan one by one, Duan Jingyan leaned on the dragon chair, the document didn't even move, she lowered her eyebrows, and interrupted Concubine Wan's words.
"Concubine Wan, just look at it, I always feel at ease when you do things."
Wan Guifei smiled, Duan Jingyan took a deep breath, and couldn't help rubbing her eyebrows, she walked to Duan Jingyan's side and gently pinched his shoulders for him, but Duan Jingyan did not refuse.
"The emperor is busy with affairs, and he must also pay attention to the health of the dragon's body, and it is not good to always worry and be sad."
"Today, in the court, the construction of the river in Yuzhou was mentioned again, and your brother asked for 50 million silver taels in Yuzhou."
When Concubine Wan heard this, her face turned pale, her hand also stopped, and she knelt down in front of Duan Jingyan with her skirt around and said: "Your Majesty, it's all the concubines who are not good, the concubines didn't persuade my brother, and now they rely on the Ouyang clan even more, and the concubines can't escape the blame." ”
Duan Jingyan didn't say anything, but her face was gloomy, and Concubine Wan knelt on the ground prostrately, with mist rising in her eyes.
"Your Majesty, the concubines know that the emperor is to preserve the glory of the Ouyang family and think about the concubines, but what my brother is doing is hateful, so the emperor still detains my brother......"
"Get up, I give, it's better to have more than less."
"The Emperor's ......"
Concubine Wan raised her head, the tears in her eyes couldn't hold back any longer, and she looked at Duan Jingyan with panic and gratitude in her heart.
I am afraid that there is no second king in the world, who is willing to take care of the overall situation for the honor and disgrace of a concubine clan.
How does she not love, how can she endure the blood-sucking leeches in her clan, which makes him worried......
"Okay, Zuo is just a little money, it's not a big deal, you go down, cry and let the dragon queen see it, it's time to say that I bullied you......"
Hearing Duan Jingyan say this, Concubine Wan couldn't help but sneer, and hurriedly wiped her tears with a silk handkerchief, and stood up, her eyebrows and eyes full of shyness.
"The emperor is Mingjun, Qing'er is very embarrassed, in the Ouyang family, there are too many last resorts. Qing'er should have been a prisoner a long time ago, but because of the emperor's favor, she was able to keep her glory today. Qing'er thanked the emperor for ......"
"Why do you say this, you have also done a lot for me, I know it in my heart."
