Rong Changan returned to the palace with a lot of worries, looked at the lush flowers and trees in the courtyard, but was thinking about the flood in his heart.
"Your Majesty, it's too hot outside, come in and cool off!" Chuntao reminded worriedly when she saw her mother sunbathing outside by herself.
Seeing Chuntao's anxious face, Rong Changan stepped in and took a sip of the chrysanthemum tea that Chuntao handed over.
"The weather is getting hotter and hotter!" Rong Chang'an's physical fitness made him even more afraid of heat.
"Your Majesty, the ice in the palace has been prepared. If you feel hot, can I put some in the room?" Chuntao said thoughtfully.
"It's okay, let's use it in the summer vacation!"
Rong Changan saw Chuntao's hesitant expression, "Just tell me what you have, why are you hesitating?"
Chuntao originally saw that her mother was absent-minded and didn't want to trouble her with these trivial matters, but when she asked her, she naturally had to answer.
"Your Majesty, it's the Yue Concubine who has come to visit your Empress three times. She waited for a long time before going back in the morning! Seeing her appearance, she is very anxious!"
Rong Chang'an hummed lightly, and suddenly thought that the concubine Yue had done him a favor in the past few days, so he told Chuntao, "I'm back, send someone over to tell her!"
Chuntao went out and sent a little palace maid to notify Concubine Yue, and Concubine Yue came gracefully after a while!
When Rong Changan saw the pleasing figure of Concubine Yue, his mood suddenly improved, "Mingyue, let's have a cup of tea!"
Concubine Yue was anxious today, so she drank the new tea handed over by the young lady in a strong and calm manner, and did not taste much after taking two sips.
"You all go down, I will whisper to the concubine Yue." The little maids retreated outside the door one by one.
Zhu Mingyue knelt down in front of Rong Changan, "I beg my sister to help me!"
Rong Chang'an thought that Zhu Mingyue was a smart woman, no matter how much she was favored by His Majesty, she was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and she was good at dancing!
The bright and enchanting woman when I first met her, now knelt down in front of me in embarrassment, tears streaming down my face!
After a long while, the concubine Yue gradually stabilized her emotions, and slowly stated her purpose.
Mingyue's parents died tragically, and her elder brother disappeared. Under the protection of her guards, she went to Dajing Country to ask for help. There was no way to ask for help, so she entered the palace as a concubine.
Originally, he wanted to persuade Li Hai to send troops, but Li Hai became more and more obsessed with her, and he would definitely not let her leave the palace. Mingyue came to Rong Chang'an because she was riding a tiger and couldn't get off at this time, hoping that she could help her get out of the palace.
"Sister, since I have been in the palace for three months and did not do anything to harm my sister, please help me!" After Yuebi finished speaking, her heart was full of relief.
"Mingyue, that villain Zhu Ziming and I are not at odds, and I don't have much contact with you, give me a reason to help you?" Rong Chang'an heard what Yuebi said, and believed her words, because Yuebi His upbringing is really good.
She had long suspected that she was from a different origin, but she hadn't investigated it!
"Sister, I have nothing left! I really don't know what else I can do for you." Yue Bi's expression was full of desolation, and she no longer had the fresh breath she had when they first met.
"You go back!" Rong Changan said lightly, she didn't want to help.
Yue Bi raised her head and stared at Rong Chang'an affectionately, "Rong Chang'an, do you know why I help you many times?"
The concubine Yue saw that the empress's expression remained unchanged, and continued, "Because I envy you. I envy you holding military power and being able to do what you want, instead of relying on others like me."
Concubine Yue took a step forward, "If I had soldiers under my command, I wouldn't wander thousands of miles to commit myself to others, and I wouldn't let that rebellious minister and thief get away with it. So, I envy you!"
Rong Changan smiled wryly in his heart, how could she be free
Why!
Rong Changan sighed, and looked at the concubine Yue who was no longer pretending, "You go back first, I will take you out of the palace if there is a chance! The imperial palace is not suitable for you."
Concubine Yue used the unique etiquette of her own nation to salute Rong Changan.
Rong Changan asked Chuntao to tidy up the concubine Yue before letting her go!
Seven days passed quietly. Seven days doesn't sound like a long time, but in the hearts of Rong Chang'an and Yan Li, it seems to be as long as several years of suffering!
But at this moment in the imperial study room, Li Hai, who didn't have the moon concubine with red sleeves to add fragrance, was a little absent-minded looking at the memorial.
"Ingots?"
"exist!"
Eunuch Yuan Bao looked up at his master's expression, thinking about what made him worry, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
"Tell me, why is Concubine Yue unhappy these days?" Li Hai thought and thought, but couldn't figure out why Concubine Yue was unhappy.
He doted on Concubine Yue so much and gave her all the best things in the palace, why was she still unhappy
When Yuan Bao heard that the emperor was unhappy because of the concubine Yue, he smiled slightly, and then replied, "Your Majesty, the concubine Yue is so beloved by you, how could you be unhappy?"
Yuan Bao looked up and saw the emperor's gloomy face immediately, and quickly changed his words, "Is it because the empress feels your unique love and doesn't know how to repay you, so she is thinking about it?"
Li Hai glanced at Yuan Bao, and didn't know whether to believe this statement or not.
"Who wants her in return?" Li Hai said loudly.
Yuan Bao hurriedly persuaded, "Yes, you dote on the concubine Yue without any consideration for return! But the empress doesn't know, she was the adopted daughter of the Zhu family since she was a child, and although Master Zhu treated her very well, she was not related by blood. It's always one level away. The empress suddenly met someone who treats her so well like you, and I don't know how to deal with it!"
Eunuch Yuan Bao tried his best to persuade Li Hai, not wanting the emperor to worry too much about Concubine Yue! Sure enough, after the analysis of Yuan Bao, an old fritter, Li Hai's mood gradually improved!
In an inn in the capital, Qingming, the man who followed Concubine Yue to the capital, who is also Concubine Yue's sweetheart in China, is meeting Mingyue's guard, Qingyu!
"Master Qingming, Princess Mingyue plans to leave the palace, and she will return to China in a while!" Qing Yu respectfully told the man opposite her about Princess Mingyue's recent itinerary.
Qingming's eyes locked on the man opposite, as if he had already seen the man who was thinking about his dream through Qingyu.
"Qingyu, you are her bodyguard, do you think she will dislike me? Dislike me for not being able to protect her and avenge her?" Qing Ming was very worried.
Qingyu doesn't know what his own princess thinks, but he can only stabilize Lord Qingming first, "No, Lord Qingming! The princess will definitely understand your true feelings!"
Qing Ming shook his head, sighed, turned and entered his room! Leave Qing Yu a lonely back!
