After all, Zhai Shiyin is a young lady from a family, and it's not that she has never seen the world. She quickly adjusted her mood, and after she regained her composure, she walked in front of the mysterious woman.
From the corner of her eye, Rong Xi caught a glimpse of Zhai Shiyin approaching her, but she continued to use the golden tweezers inlaid with jewels to pick the snow on the plum blossoms as if she didn't notice.
It was only when Zhai Shiyin approached that she realized that behind this woman was not only a court lady, but also four or five strong servants with swords.
All the attendants lowered their heads, not daring to look at Rong Xi to avoid suspicion.
Zhai Shiyin had seen these attendants before, and knew that they were the people beside Mu Huai. At this moment, she had guessed that this woman was the civilian girl Mu Huai brought into the palace from outside the palace.
She always felt that the more she looked at this woman, the more familiar she felt, but she couldn't tell where she was familiar.
When she was about to get close to Rong Xi, those attendants surrounded her and prevented her from getting close to that woman.
Zhai Shiyin's complexion did not change, and he said softly: "What are you stopping me from doing, I also want to come to this Meiyuan to pick snow for the empress, so that I can make tea."
When Rong Xi heard Zhai Shiyin's voice, she acted as if she had just discovered Zhai Shiyin, she turned her head and looked at her.
Zhai Shiyin also looked at Rong Xi, the closer she was to her, the more beautiful she felt.
Zhai Shiyin's heart was full of jealousy.
At this time, Rong Xi smiled lightly, and asked Zhai Shiyin in confusion: "Are you..."
When Zhai Shiyin heard Rong Xi's voice, he felt very familiar again.
This delicate and sweet voice is similar to that of the maid from the Rong family.
Could it be that Mu Huai just likes the movement of a woman's voice
It's like a bird chirping, it's too delicate and too sweet, it makes people get goosebumps.
Zhai Shiyin controlled her expression, secretly feeling that the woman who made such a seductive noise was destined to be a concubine, unable to stand on the stage, and not dignified at all.
She is very good at controlling her emotions, and her face is still as gentle as a spring breeze.
Zhai Shiyin asked Rong Xi knowingly, "I am the daughter of the Minister of Rites, and also the empress' niece. My name is Zhai Shiyin. May I ask who is the girl?"
After hearing this, Rong Xi's face was calm, and she said, "Oh."
He also said: "Miss Di, is that... Not long after I entered the palace, His Highness the Crown Prince mentioned several noble lords in the palace with me, but Miss Di was never mentioned."
After hearing this, Zhai Shiyin's heart stopped beating.
Has Mu Huai never mentioned himself to this woman
How is this possible
The queen told the emperor over and over again that she wanted the emperor to give her a marriage, but the emperor's attitude did not refuse, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Emperor Zhuang should have talked about this with Mu Huai.
Zhai Shiyin's complexion became ugly.
There was an imperceptible smile hidden in Rong Xi's eyes, but he still pretended to be picking snow carefully, leaving Zhai Shiyin aside.
She was wearing a snow-white fox fur today. At this time, when the sun was clear and the snow was just beginning, her skin was already pale, but now it looked even more radiant and clear.
The cold wind was coming, and her delicate and soft earballs were also slightly red, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off.
When she raised her head to pick up the snow, the maids behind Zhai Shiyin were all stunned.
Zhai Shiyin noticed the strangeness of the court ladies, glanced sideways at them, and regained his peaceful expression.
Rong Xi had already walked under another plum tree, Zhai Shiyin also stepped forward, although she was still blocked by the guards, she still asked gently: "Miss, you are still used to living in the palace when you first came to the palace from the common people?"
Zhai Shiyin thought to herself, this folk girl behaves vulgarly and doesn't know the rules, maybe she is just beautiful and has no intentions.
He is really not afraid of offending people at all, and he is not even polite to outsiders.
Sooner or later, I will be Mu Huai's wife, and from now on, I must adopt a magnanimous and virtuous demeanor, and I must not lose my composure in front of the concubine.
The corners of Rong Xi's lips twitched slightly, and without looking at Zhai Shiyin, he picked up the snow and replied: "It's the first time I came to the palace, although I feel that everything is strange, but fortunately, His Highness is here..."
After she finished speaking, she pretended to smile shyly, and said: "His Highness took good care of me and told me many things carefully, so there is nothing wrong with me."
This was said shyly and timidly, and the feelings of the youngest daughter's family were fully revealed. One could tell at a glance that the relationship between her and Mu Huai must be extremely sweet.
Zhai Shiyin's face turned blue and white for a while.
It seems that Mu Huai really dotes on her very much.
Rong Xi stopped everything she was doing, looked at Zhai Shiyin again, and asked: "You...don't pick snow? Aren't you going to cook snow for the empress and make tea? Always ask me questions and why?"
Zhai Shiyin looked at Rong Xi's words with contemptuous coquettishness, and her gentle voice finally became a little colder, she said: "Girl, do you know that the Empress has already told the emperor about my marriage with His Highness the Crown Prince, in the future we will We will see each other from time to time. If you still don’t understand the rules of the palace, you can come and find me, and I will tell you.”
After Rong Xi listened, her delicately drawn eyebrows raised slightly.
She asked again: "Oh? Is there such a thing? Your Highness has never told me."
Zhai Shiyin wants the woman in front of her to understand that no matter how much she is favored, she will be just a concubine in the future.
She understood her point very clearly, but this woman still didn't show any respect to herself.
Zhai Shiyin's complexion changed slightly, she really couldn't figure out whether this woman was fearless, or couldn't understand the meaning of the words.
She said again: "Is the girl pretending to be confused with me?"
Rong Xi's smile deepened, looking extremely beautiful, she replied: "Why should I pretend to be confused with you, what about Miss Zhai, what does it have to do with me?"
Zhai Shiyin was speechless for a moment.
"you… "
This woman is really a difficult opponent who is arrogant and arrogant.
Zhai Shiyin cursed secretly in her heart, the eunuch next to Emperor Zhuang had already arrived here, slightly adjusted her unsteady breathing, walked to the side of the crowd, and said respectfully: "I found it here, and I have been looking for the girl for a long time."
I don't know who said the word girl.
But Zhai Shiyin jumped up in his heart, seeing the young eunuch following behind the big eunuch carrying the imperial edict, he felt that he should come to proclaim the edict.
Maybe it was the imperial decree to make her the crown princess.
There was a smile on her face again, waiting quietly for the eunuch to announce the decree.
The eunuch said at this time: "Ms. Rong listens to the order."
Zhai Shiyin's expression froze slightly.
After Rong Xi knelt on the ground respectfully, the eunuch announced at this time: "Follow the heavens, the emperor Zhao said. I only rule the palace and teach, and lead the nine emperors to inherit and retire. Zi Rong is gentle, benign and virtuous, with outstanding appearance, and canonized you He is the crown prince Liangdi. Fate is only new, and He is honored in the bamboo booklet ①."
After saying that, Rong Xi was also shocked.
She thought that at most she would be canonized as Fengyi, but she never expected that the position Mu Huai promised her would be Liangdi.
Rong Xi calmed down and replied respectfully: "My son accepts the order, thank you Lord for your kindness, long live my emperor, long live, long live."
Zhai Shiyin froze suddenly.
Emperor Zhuang actually made a daughter of the people Liangdi
This woman surpassed Fengyi, Zhaoxun, Chenghui and Liangyuan, and became Liang Di after the Crown Princess
Why do you want to give this girl a good concubine? Even the concubine of the third and fourth ranks was named the crown prince Liangdi, it was all flattery.
Suddenly, she recalled that when the eunuch announced the decree, it was Rong's name.
Zhai Shiyin's eyes focused, this woman's surname is Rong, and her voice is so sweet, could it be...
that woman.
But how is it possible
After Xuanzhi eunuch left, the maids beside Rong Xi were all congratulating Rong Liangdi.
Zhai Shiyin forced herself to calm down and pretended to continue picking snow.
But Rong Xi walked towards her, Zhai Shiyin couldn't help but shudder when he saw the woman's charming eyes with a little provocation.
Rong Xi noticed Zhai Shiyin's embarrassment.
She likes to pretend to be virtuous and dignified so much, so she let her pretend.
Rong Xi has been with Yu Zhaorong for a long time, and she knows best that the women in the harem have different ways of fighting for favor, while the noble women in Bianjing like a moderate way, they are easy-going and unobtrusive on the surface, but they are calculating in their hearts.
But it is Yu Zhaorong's domineering and arrogant concubine who can arouse women's jealousy and hatred the most. When Yu Zhaorong was alive, many people hated her so much.
Especially when dealing with someone like Zhai Shiyin who insists on putting on airs of virtuousness and generosity, she can only be so mad at her.
The fragrance on Rong Xi's body is getting closer to Zhai Shiyin.
Zhai Shiyin was a little flustered, not knowing what this woman was going to do.
After all, it's not that I'm out of my mind, so I want to show off to her.
Rong Xi stopped and said to Zhai Shiyin: "Miss Zhai, maybe I forgot something."
Zhai Shiyin forced himself to calm down and asked, "What's the matter?"
Rong Xi's voice was still soft, but her tone was a little chilly, she said: "Since I have just been conferred the title of Liangdi, my position in this palace is the third grade, and Miss Zhai has no imperial orders, so I should submit to me Curt your knees and salute. Since Miss Zhai claims to be a well-behaved person, why doesn't she salute to me?"
Zhai Shiyin finally showed anger on her face, but as Rong Xi said, she doesn't have any status or mandate right now.
She gritted her teeth secretly, bent her knees, and respectfully said to Rong Xi: "... Is this okay? Di Rong Liang."
Rong Xi glanced at her indifferently, without saying a word, she left here with her maid and attendants.
Zhai Shiyin looked at Rong Xi's back, and felt that everything that happened today was like hitting a ghost.
Is this Rong Liangdi the Aunt Rong who was kicked out by her plan
*****
It was night, the moon was shining brightly, and the lights of Yongxi Forbidden City weaved the sky, creating a prosperous scene in Helu.
Mu Huai has been busy with dealing with bandits these days, and after he came down to court, he ran between the Political Affairs Hall and the Privy Council, very busy.
Rong Xi sat quietly in the armchair beside the Eight Immortals table, thinking of Mu Huai who had not yet returned to the palace.
After this man was made a crown prince, he was diligent in his administration. He was really a good monarch who cared for the people.
Today, when she conferred Liangdi, her thoughts towards Mu Huai became different.
Before, he was the master and she was the slave.
But now, she is Liangdi, although she is a concubine, but he has become her husband.
Although she didn't dare to call him Husband, she would still call him Your Highness, but...
Thinking about it, Rong Xi looked softly at her slightly raised belly.
Mu Huai is her husband, and he has a blood relationship with her, so from today onwards, he is her relative.
Rong Xi caressed her lower abdomen, it was already late, but she asked the maid to reheat the food, and she wanted to wait for Mu Huai to come back and eat it together.
When Mu Huai returned to the palace, his body was wrapped in the coldness of early spring, but he did not show any signs of fatigue.
On the contrary, the courtiers in the Zhengshitang couldn't bear it, and they all showed bitterness when the time came. He still had more to say, but finally let them go out of the palace and return to the mansion.
He originally wanted to get some files from the officials of Dali Temple, especially the case of Rong Bing's dereliction of duty, but it was too late, so he had to give up.
When Mu Huai relived his life, it was not as good as when he was in power in his previous life. He was new to some political affairs and didn't know much about them.
After more than ten years in power, when I look at it from this position, I can see many things clearly.
The Ministry of Punishment of Shangshu Province and the powers of Dali Temple seem to be clear.
The Dali Temple of the Qi Dynasty generally only tried important cases in Bianjing, and the sentencing and sentencing were still handled by the Ministry of Punishment, but this undoubtedly made the entire judicial process in Daqi much less efficient.
Daqi's administration of justice and prisons can be changed.
Mu Huai wanted to discuss this matter with Yan Juxu, but since he brought Rong Xi back to the palace, he hasn't seen Yan Juxu yet.
He remembered that at this time in his previous life, Yan Juxu's wife seemed to be seriously ill. Although he had just started working, he still took a leave of absence.
The people praised him for sharing weal and woe with his wife.
On the way back to the East Palace, Mu Huai was still thinking about government affairs, it was getting late, and he suddenly realized that this life was different from the previous life.
In this life, the woman is still alive.
She has just been named Liang Di, she is his woman, he can't put his mind on government affairs, he has to spare some time to spend with her.
Thinking about it, the corners of Mu Huai's lips tugged slightly.
After entering the hall, I found that the woman was sitting at the Eight Immortals table, the chopsticks were placed on the chopsticks pillow, and there was no food or food.
Rong Xi sensed that Mu Huai had returned, so she got up from the table.
The man wears a traveling crown and a double-leather belted flat-out suit. He is dignified and eye-catching, and he is at the age of high spirits.
Mu Huai's temperament seems to be contradictory, but it is very harmonious.
He is strong in his bones, he acts cruelly and cruelly, and he is also brave in martial arts.
But his face is as clear and handsome as a scribe, and he usually wears plain and simple colorful shirts, which also have the elegance of Zhilan Yushu.
As soon as Rong Xi felt that his temperament was out of the dust, the man's complexion began to turn gloomy.
Mu Huai scolded coldly: "Why don't you have dinner?"
Rong Xi replied: "Slave... I want to wait for His Highness to come back and use it together."
Seeing her aggrieved and slightly timid face, Mu Huai's face turned pale.
He thought that if he came back late again in the future, he would definitely send someone back to the palace to inform her, and he would never let her wait like this again.
The food has just been heated and is steaming.
In the past few days, Rong Xi's anxiety has improved a lot.
Seeing that Mu Huai eats too much tonight, she asked softly, "Did your Highness not eat much at noon?"
Mu Huai replied: "I haven't had lunch yet."
In his previous life, after Rong Xi's death, he only had one meal a day, and he had no interest in delicacies. He ate just to survive.
Now it seems that his early death in the previous life is also related to this habit.
Rong Xi lightly lifted his slender wrist, scooped up a spoonful of soup for the man, and said with concern: "His Highness still needs some lunch when dealing with government affairs in the future, otherwise his health will be bad."
Mu Huai took the soup and stared at Rong Xi for a while.
Rong Xi's face became hot from his gaze, and her cheeks turned red.
Mu Huai used up the soup that Rong Xi served for him.
After a busy day, when I returned to the East Palace, I was accompanied by a delicate and considerate woman, and served hot dishes and meals.
All of this is different from the previous life.
In fact, before rebirth, there were such warm days.
When Rong Xi was his servant, she also accompanied him for dinner, taking care of him tenderly and carefully.
But at that time, he was in the blessing and didn't know the blessing.
It wasn't until the previous life, after the woman left him, that Mu Huai realized how precious these seemingly ordinary days and nights were to him.
Fortunately, now, he lost it and found it again.
Mu Huai whispered: "Yes."
After dinner, Mu Huai took a bath.
With his clothes half open and his body slightly ironed, he held the petite woman on the bed in his arms.
Now that he has been named Liang Di, he should take Rong Xi to Weiyang Palace to meet the empress tomorrow.
Mu Huai told Rong Xi a few words, fearing that she would make a mistake.
Before waiting for the ceremony, he had to find someone from the etiquette department to teach her etiquette.
Rong Xi was already sleepy at this moment, leaning against the man's broad arms and squinting.
Seeing this, Mu Huai tapped her forehead with his fingers, and said in a low voice: "Lazy woman, did you hear what Gu told you?"
Rong Xi nodded ignorantly, Mu Huai had already forgotten that she had been with Yu Zhaorong for many years and helped her win favor.
She is very familiar with the temperament and preferences of the noble lords in the palace, and even Emperor Zhuang.
But she still replied in a soft voice: "My Highness's instructions, I have written them all down."
Hearing that she was still calling him His Highness, Mu Huai pursed his thin lips slightly.
This woman became his little Liang Di tonight, but she still called him His Highness.
Mu Huai clasped the woman's soft hands tightly, then interlocked her fingers and placed them around his waist.
After that, he lightly lifted the woman's warm and delicate slapped face, and saw that she still looked weak and sleepy.
Mu Huai had no choice but to bow his head and kiss her soft lips.
With eyes closed, Rong Xi felt a man's kiss on her lips, and the corners of her lips were slightly rippling.
Then, she threw her petite body into the man's arms.
Mu Huai's usually cold eyes finally showed a slight smile, and he said, "You still call Gu your Highness?"
With a delicate and waxy voice, Rong Xi asked puzzledly: "Then why call Your Highness?"
Mu Huai pinched the woman's delicate chin, and said softly in a low voice, "You should be alone, my husband."
