Chapter 41: The Might of a Wife
In the Imperial Garden, there is a large river pond, and there is nothing planted on the water, but there are many lotus lanterns floating. The faint light is lined with cherry powder by the flowers, and when clustered together, it also has a unique flavor.
Lin Qingwan was taken by Chu Fuyan to a place that was some distance from the crowd, and there happened to be a stone bench to sit on, which was also excellent. I had been standing for a long time before, and this gorgeous dress was a burden, so it was a little comfortable to sit.
"Well, wouldn't it be nice for us to sit like this?" she suddenly realized the problem, "The emperor is standing there, will there be no rules......
She didn't want to be gossiped about, and the feeling she couldn't refute and didn't want to bear was too uncomfortable.
Knowing that Lin Qingwan was somewhat worried, Chu Fuyan rubbed her head and said in a soft voice: "It's okay, I'll take you back later, you can sit for a while." If the emperor blames him, I will have to admit the punishment for my wife, and I will let my wife sit anyway. ”
There was an unexpected spoiling in his eyes, and Chu Fuyan's eyes were extremely soft, which made Lin Qingwan's heart relax a lot.
"Okay, it's up to you. ”
When their eyes fell on the river pool over there, many concubines couldn't wait to take out the wax baby puppets they had made before and put them into the water one by one in front of Emperor Dongjia. It's a pity that before he drifted far, he sank to the bottom. It's not good to sigh in front of Emperor Dongjia, they can only smile bitterly.
"Don't be frustrated, concubines, it's just a custom, as long as you work hard, it's not very difficult to want an heir. ”
Although Emperor Dongjia felt lost, after all, it was just a custom and should not be taken seriously. I was thinking about the feast, but I caught a glimpse of a waxy baby puppet floating in the water without sinking. Everyone was shocked and couldn't believe it.
The floating wax puppet was given to Concubine Yue by the bronze sparrow last night, so it must have come in handy today. Seeing Concubine Yue's shyness and pretending to be surprised, Lin Qingwan felt that she was a little better at acting than those actors. But as long as she can be favored again, then she will be one point closer to her plan.
Why not?
"The concubine was terrified, and she didn't know that the puppet she made would float on the water......"
Concubine Yue stepped forward and bowed, and looked at Emperor Dongjia under the jealous eyes of everyone, and she saw Long Yan Dayue when her eyes met. Secretly hooked her lips, Lin Qingwan can be regarded as having ulterior motives, if she can help her ascend to the phoenix position, it will be excellent.
At that time, what concubine, what concubine, and the newcomer Lin Qiuwen, she can trample on it and ravage it wantonly!
"Hurry up, this is an auspicious omen, and there is no need to be afraid. I'm afraid this is an instruction from God, Concubine Yue is going to be pregnant with the emperor's heir. In this way, I will sleep at Concubine Ai's tonight. ”
Emperor Dongjia pulled up Concubine Yue, took her into his arms, and looked at the puppet drifting farther and farther away, and he was even more overjoyed. Then, under the jealous eyes of the concubines, he moved to the dormitory.
In fact, it is doubtful that wax puppets cannot float in the water in the first place, and that custom is nothing more than bluffing. So the puppet of the moon concubine can't be as simple as wax at all. It's just that Lin Qingwan used a trick to coat the wooden puppet with a layer of wax to confuse the real.
Coupled with the more superstitious people, Emperor Dongjia is no exception, this scene will definitely be the auspicious of Yizi. In this way, it is not difficult to win the favor of Emperor Dongjia again. Lin Qingwan stared thoughtfully at the figure that was leaving, but she didn't know that Concubine Yue suddenly turned to look at her.
Looking at each other, Lin Qingwan saw her grateful gaze, and just smiled and nodded in response. She quickly turned around and laughed with Emperor Dongjia, seizing the great opportunity to be favored now in order to rise to prominence.
Lin Qingwan is also powerful, and she can once again make Concubine Yue regain her favor. At first, the candidate should not be Concubine Yue, but seeing that she and Concubine Wan were also incompatible, it was also in line with the candidate in her heart, so she decided as she wanted. Now I only hope that she will be promoted to the concubine position soon, so as to suppress the power of the concubine.
The sorrow on his face became more and more intense, Lin Qingwan frowned and thought about it, but ignored the gaze that Chu Fuyan had been casting beside him. Seeing her like this, Chu Fuyan was suspicious.
Is it because it's too boring here? How do you see her sad face...... Is it really a strong support......
Feeling worried, he asked in a low voice, his tone full of concern: "What's wrong with Madam? Do you think it's boring? The emperor is already gone, why don't I take you back to the house?"
"I'm fine, I'm just thinking about things. Lin Qingwan shook his head, got up and prepared to leave with him, "Okay, I've wanted to go back to the house for a long time, and I'm a little sleepy all night after doing nothing......"
Although she slept until noon before, she still couldn't say that she was tired, presumably because she had slept for a long time? subconsciously yawned, because of tiredness, there seemed to be some tears overflowing from the corners of her eyes, flashing a little bit in the night.
Chu Fuyan sighed, untied his robe and put it on her, and by the way, he took her somewhat thin body in his arms: "Then do you need to take Mrs. back for your husband? In this way, you can also take a nap on the road." ”
The unintentional ridicule made Lin Qingwan blush quickly, and she said coquettishly: "Why do you tease me again and again? I'm not legless, can I walk by myself?"
I think I have a strong attitude, but I don't know that in his eyes, I am like a fried cat, very cute. With a chuckle, he reached out and ruffled the hair on her forehead: "Okay, well, Madame is very right." Let's go, don't get cold, your small body can't withstand this deeper exposure. ”
Just wanted to say something to refute, but Lin Qingwan was attracted by the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, how could he still be in the mood to play with him.
"...... Gongzi Chu" Lu Zhao heard that Chu Fuyan would enter the palace as promised tonight, she immediately put down the things in her hand to see him, but she didn't know that she bumped into such a scene, "Why is she here? Why is Gongzi Chu ......?"
Do you want to spoil her in every way? Is it that after many years of infatuation, is it not as good as a woman who has only been in contact with him for a short time?
I didn't expect her to appear here, or in this way, Lin Qingwan's expression was complicated. Due to the difference in identity, she should have to salute Lu Zhao, but Chu Fuyan didn't seem to be as good as she wanted, and the strength in her hand was not heavy but very tough.
When they looked at each other, Chu Fuyan said lightly: "Princess Showa, if it's okay, I will take my wife back to the house." Invite the princess to take care of herself, and we'll go first. ”
As he spoke, he hugged Lin Qingwan, who was still confused, and left, not caring at all that the two had not saluted her.
Lin Qingwan thinks that he is also powerful, relying on other princesses to like him, so arrogant. The question is, if he wants to be rude, why did he take her with him?
He has always treated her ruthlessly, Lu Zhao didn't know it, but she felt that she wouldn't let Lin Qingwan go so easily this time!
She bit her lip fiercely, turned around and shouted to the two: "Stop! Are you just ignoring me, the princess? If you don't salute this princess, this princess hasn't let you go, are you too unruly?"
This is the first time she has shown an arrogant and domineering appearance in front of Chu Fuyan, anyway, he has no intention of himself, and he is not allowed to reveal his true nature?
"So, what does the princess want?"
Chu Fuyan turned around and took Lin Qingwan with him. I didn't want to have any more entanglements with Lu Zhao, after all, I only promised Lin Qingwan last night, how could I break my trust today?
"I'm going to let her give me a big salute!" Lu Zhao pointed at Lin Qingxuan, but his eyes were firmly fixed on Chu Fuyan, "It's just that I married you before this princess, so I dare to ignore the existence of this princess like this." Even if it is your wife, this princess should let her know what rules are. ”
Her words made Chu Fuyan frown in disgust, it turned out that her previous appearance was all for him to see. This is the real her, it's really scoffing. He has always hated self-righteous women, and Lu Zhao is one of them.
His complexion instantly cooled, his eyes were cold, and he had long lost his softness. Although Lu Zhao was scared, she was determined to make Lin Qingwan look good today, how could she retreat because of Chu Fuyan?
Lin Qingwan was also helpless, but thinking that Lu Zhao was Chu Fuyan's wife in the previous life, she also occupied Lu Zhao's position from a certain point of view. What's more, such an infatuated woman is also rare, and the taste of not being in love is really uncomfortable. Thinking like this, she felt a little pity for Lu Zhao in her heart.
However, one yard is one yard, Lin Qingwan is not a person who is easy to be bullied.
She broke away from Chu Fuyan's embrace, gave him a 'don't worry, I'm fine' smile, and stepped forward to salute Lu Zhao: "Princess Showa, please forgive me if you have any offense." It's just that I want to remind the princess that if it's not yours, it's not yours, and you can't get it if you ask for it. ”
Wouldn't it be very sad if she could only get a shell, instead of a true heart? In the previous life, although she married Chu Fuyan as she wished, she later heard that she was not doing well, and the taste of staying alone in the empty room every night was not pleasant, right?
"I've already done it to the princess, and if it's all right, we'll go first. Lin Qingwan returned to Chu Fuyan's side and grabbed his arm, "The princess should go back and think twice, she is so obsessed with my husband, I have to express my position as a lady, right?" Anyway, it is impossible to wronged the princess to be small, and ask the princess to find another Langjun." ”
As soon as the words fell, Lin Qingwan took Chu Fuyan and left quickly, leaving Lu Zhao messy in the wind.
On the carriage, Lin Qingwan breathed a sigh of relief, could it be too out of proportion just now? The other party is a princess anyway, and she is arrogant again......
A little regretful, but he caught a glimpse of Chu Fuyan looking at her with a smile. Suddenly, Lin Qingwan blushed again.
"Madame is so angry, presumably Princess Showa is very angry this time. Isn't Madame afraid of getting into trouble?"
Lin Qingwan glanced at him, shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "It's a big deal to give in and let you marry her, if you have a wish from her, you won't worry too much about me, right?" ”
When she said this, Chu Fuyan was not angry, but half-jokingly: "It's not impossible, the princess Showa is not bad...... Well, hugging left and right is also happy. Do you say yes, my wife?"
