Here in Ziyan, there is no eternal love. She believed that by means of means, a man like Liu Xiahui could fall into her arms.
"Sister, you are too unconfident! Looking at the entire palace, I think you are the most beautiful. The emperor is cold to you, but it is just pretending, because he is afraid of Rong Chang'an!"
Zixuan found it incredible: "Why is the emperor afraid of the queen?"
Zi Yan twisted her mouth, showing a look of contempt: "This Rong Changan, apart from being tough on us, she also controls the emperor strictly, not letting him get close to other women. Rong Changan is a veritable tigress. Besides, Rong Changan With military power in his hands and tens of thousands of loyal horses, such a powerful person, the emperor will have to look at Chang An's face in everything he does for himself and for the sake of the world."
Zixuan was very depressed: "As said, the empress controls the emperor in such a way and wants to win the emperor's favor, isn't it our wishful thinking!"
"That's not necessarily the case!" Zi Yan smiled confidently, stretched out her small snow-white hand, and grabbed it into a fist, "We must rely on means to win the Emperor's favor."
At this time, Ziyan's eyes were ferocious, her jaw was strong, and a trace of panic flashed in Zixuan's eyes: "What method?"
Zi Yan smiled and said: "Sister, there is a saying called "Ri Jiu Sheng Qing", which means that two people will have feelings if they get along for a long time; if they don't see each other for a long time, there will be no feelings, don't you think? "
Zixuan's two pretty eyebrows twitched together: "The emperor is now working hard to rule the country. He spends almost all his time on political affairs every day, forgetting to eat and sleep. Even the queen rarely sees him, let alone us. We have to talk to the emperor often. Meet, easier said than done."
Ziyan patted Zixuan on the shoulder: "It's up to people. My sister has a clever plan now, so that the emperor will come to see you tomorrow."
Zixuan really loves Yan Li in her heart, she fell in love with Yan Li the first time she saw Yan Li. Yan Li looks gentle, elegant and unrestrained, unlike her Tianchi people, who are rough and have no etiquette. To be able to avoid Rong Changan and meet Yan Li is really taking advantage of her.
Zixuan lowered her head, and said timidly, "How can my sister let the emperor come to me?"
Ziyan giggled, Zixuan became even more ashamed, her face was red all the way to her neck and earlobes.
"What is sister laughing at?"
Zi Yan said: "Sister laughing! My sister's heart of wanting to see the emperor has jumped out!"
Zixuan turned around quickly, pouted, and said softly, "Sister, don't talk nonsense, I... why do I want to see the emperor..."
Ziyan knew that Zixuan had no face, so she stopped shaking her: "Sister, in your current situation, it is very easy to see the emperor. You just need to bribe the eunuch next to the emperor and let the eunuch say a few words to you in front of the emperor. Definitely come to see you."
Zixuan was in a dilemma: "Bring the eunuch? This... Isn't this cheating!"
Ziyan said: "I know my sister is pure-hearted, and I don't want to do this kind of bribery. I'll help my sister buy the eunuch, okay?"
Zixuan just lowered her head, neither saying yes nor no.
Zi Yan looked outside, fearing that if Rong Changan suddenly appeared, it would be bad if he stayed for a long time.
"This matter is left to my sister! When the emperor comes, you have to be gentle and careful, and serve him well. The most powerful means of a woman is not her beauty, but her gentleness. Remember my words!"
…
The night is as cool as water, and the gentle evening breeze blows waves of chill into Yong'an Palace, flickering the candlelight in the palace lanterns on the case. Suddenly, with a snap, Yan Li threw the memorial in his hand heavily on the case, startling the eunuch guarding the door.
"Huh, these officials, disregarding the life and death of the people, squeeze the people's fat and anointment, really shameful, hateful and hateful!"
In the candlelight, Yan Li's eyes were burning like fire, as fierce as Mount Tai, as if the group of officials scolded by him were kneeling at his feet.
Eunuch Lu, the new Chief Internal Officer, put a light cloak on Yan Li's body lightly, feeling sorry for him, who was still reading the memorial by candle at such a late night.
"Your Majesty, what is it that makes Long Yan furious?"
Yan Li rubbed his temples with his left hand, and closed his eyes: "The prefects of the two counties in the south of the Yangtze River colluded with local rich merchants, oppressed the people, squeezed the people's fat and cream, and caused people's resentment to boil. There is a scholar named Chen Jun who went to Beijing to sue."
Yan Li pointed to the memorial that was dropped just now, "This is the memorial written by the scholar!"
Eunuch Lu picked out the candlelight, and the candle crackled a few times, making it much brighter.
"The emperor arrested these corrupt officials and killed them one by one to see if they dare to oppress the people and collude with the powerful!"
Yan Li sighed: "My noble concubine and emperor, how difficult is it to kill a person! The difficulty lies in letting them die clearly. Just based on the scholar's words, I would kill two eunuchs, wouldn't it be too hasty!"
Yan Li opened his eyes, and a thought flashed in his eyes: "It would be great if I could go to Jiangnan Weifu for a private visit, observe the people's sentiments, and understand the officials there. It's just that these days, I'm so entangled in everything that I can't leave the palace easily. "
Although Eunuch Lu is not a treacherous and evil person, he is good at flattering horses and beards. Hearing what Yan Li said, he followed what Yan Li said: "Since there are still many things in the palace, the emperor will make a private visit in a few days. Not too late."
Yan Li frowned worriedly, if the delay was longer, the people there would suffer one more day. Now he can't wait to go to the south of the Yangtze River in one step and find out what's going on there.
Eunuch Lu rolled his eyes, and his eyes flickered: "Your Majesty, there are indeed some things in the palace that cannot be handled. As an emperor, when issuing government orders, first start with yourself, and then spread them to others. The emperor must care about the world. The common people must first care about the people around them. In the past few days, I feel that Princess Zixuan is very depressed."
Zixuan's name instantly brightened Yan Li's dim eyes, and he looked sharply at Eunuch Lu: "What's wrong with Princess Zixuan?"
What Ziyan wanted Eunuch Lu to say today, Eunuch Lu has already memorized it in his head.
"The emperor reads a lot, so he must know that there was a princess in the Han Dynasty who was married to Wusun Kingdom in the Western Regions."
Yan Li said: "That's a matter of the Western Han Dynasty."
Eunuch Lu gave a thumbs up: "Your Majesty is so knowledgeable! That princess named Xijun married to the Western Regions. She speaks different languages, has different customs, and lives in an unfamiliar environment. She misses her family and family. She washes her face with tears every day. There is a song, the emperor must also remember it, right?"
Yan Li then recited: "My family married me, the sky is one side, and the king of Wusun is entrusted to a foreign country; the dome is the room, the dan is the wall, and the meat is the food, and the cheese is the pulp. I live in the ordinary land and think about it, and I am hurting in my heart. Huang Huxi returns to his hometown."
Eunuch Lu clapped his hands again and again: "Yes, yes! It's this song, and I'm still crying when I hear it now." He wiped the corners of his eyes as he said that, "It's hard for a woman who is only 14 or 15 years old to marry alone. Said, what a painful thing. Princess Zixuan is not like this!"
