"Your Majesty, it's getting late, you should rest," Gao Dezhong walked out of the corner and reminded in a low voice, "It hurts to sleep late at night."
"What time is it now?" Putting down Zhu's pen, Feng Jin glanced out of the pitch-black window.
"Returning to the emperor, it's already Hai Shi," Gao Dezhong stepped forward and removed the pen. Seeing the emperor's calm expression, he stopped talking, packed his things and stepped aside.
"How is the investigation outside the Taoyu Pavilion?" Feng Jin walked out of the main hall and looked at the lighted palace, calm as water.
"Back to the emperor, the servants are not very clear about this matter, but I heard that that night someone watched a eunuch palace maid carrying something in the direction of Taoyu Pavilion, and others did not know what was going on." Gao Dezhong probed. Opened his mouth, "I think only General Manager Pan knows it."
Feng Jin was noncommittal, and instead asked, "What's the action on the Queen's side?"
"The Empress and the other concubines have sent a lot of supplements to Master Zhao, but there is no other action." Gao Dezhong didn't understand what the emperor was thinking about Zhao Chongyi, so he didn't dare to talk more or less, "Zhao Chong There was no movement from Yi's side, although Zhao Chongyi had a small meal in the past two days, but he used it every day, but the servants watched, except to greet the queen, Zhao Chongyi doesn't seem to go out much."
Feng Jin heard nothing, sighed for a while, then waved his hand, "Let's settle it." After speaking, he turned back to his bedroom.
It's no secret in the harem that Zhao Chongyi was so frightened that she didn't go out. The palace masters were somewhat gloating, but it was a pity that Zhao Chongyi was not dismounted this time.
Early this morning, the concubines and concubines greeted the queen as usual, the queen looked at the various women sitting below and said with a smile, "There have been a lot of things in the palace recently, you don't have to worry too much, everything is with the emperor and this palace, There are people watching anything." After speaking, he looked at Zhuang Luoyan, "Zhao Chongyi is better."
"Thank you for the empress's concern, the concubine is no longer in the way." Zhuang Luoyan stood up and saluted, but from the outsider's point of view, she looked like she was still more than surprised.
All the concubines and concubines in the audience laughed. In this harem, there are still a few people who didn't have human life in their hands. This Zhao Chongyi was scared to look like this after seeing two dead people. It's really not cruel enough. Such people are here How to live in the harem.
"In my opinion, Zhao Chongyi is a little less daring," Su Xiuyi said with a smile, "The deaths of these people have nothing to do with you, why should you be afraid of this."
"The concubine and concubine have not seen these since childhood, which made Su Xiuyi laugh," Zhuang Luoyan smiled apologetically at Su Xiuyi.
When others hear this, she is afraid because she has never seen these things in her life, so what does a person who is not afraid represent
Concubine Shu Gui is also very helpless to her cousin, with a beautiful face, but she has no brains, can you say that
"You're making fun of Zhao Chongyi, and Qian'er is so frightened by looking at a mouse," Concubine Shu Gui made a gesture of scolding Su Xiuyi, "Don't take your guts out to make everyone laugh."
"It's common sense for us women to be less timid," the queen smiled gently. "You shouldn't make fun of each other. It's not too early today, so please go and greet the queen mother."
"What the Empress said is very true," Concubine Shu Gui got up with a smile, but there was a bit of stiffness in her soft smile.
When they arrived at Kang'an Palace, the queen mother and the queen showed a deep love for mother-in-law and daughter-in-law as usual, but she did not deliberately promote the Ye sisters.
I don't know if the weather is about to change, but Zhuang Luoyan, who was sitting on the carriage, felt that the weather was a little sultry. He waved the fan in his hand, looked up at the cloudy sky, and frowned.
"Zhao Chongyi is in a bad mood?" Jiang Xianconcubine's chariot came from the fork, and happened to be in parallel with Zhuang Luoyan. Seeing Zhuang Luoyan's appearance, she smiled and said: "My sister is afraid of heat?"
"Sister, I'm afraid of heat and cold," Zhuang Luoyan continued to wave the fan in his hand, "Isn't my sister afraid anymore?"
"Yeah, I'm also afraid of heat. When it's scorching hot, I can't sleep well at night. If there's a slight noise, I'm going to wake up," Jiang Xianbi smiled lightly. "This problem is really not good."
"It's really not very good," Zhuang Luoyan followed with a smile, "I just want to be able to sleep soundly at night."
"Yeah, I can't hear the sound after I slept soundly," Jiang Xianbi sighed, "You can only be envied by my sister like this."
"Where can one be envious," Zhuang Luoyan's smile faded by two points, "It's nothing more than that."
Jiang Xianbi glanced at her, then looked up at the sky, "Sister, hurry up, it's going to rain soon."
Zhuang Luoyan smiled at Jiang Xianconcubine, "It should be faster."
There was no time for half a column of incense after returning to Taoyu Pavilion with Jiang Xianconcubine. It was raining heavily. Zhuang Luoyan leaned against the window, flipping through a book of poems in his hand, but he paid attention to the heavy rain.
"Master." Tingzhu came in with a thinly sliced ice watermelon. Seeing Zhuang Luoyan leaning on the bed, he couldn't help but persuade him, "The wind is blowing at the moment, don't get your clothes wet."
"It's cooler this way," Zhuang Luoyan waved his hand indifferently, took a piece of watermelon, bit the cold watermelon in his mouth, and seemed to cool his heart.
"Master, what is the meaning of Jiang Xianconcubine's words today?" Tingzhu said hesitantly, "This servant thinks that she has something to say."
"If there is something in the sentence, it must be understood by others," Zhuang Luoyan wiped the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "Your master has always slept soundly at night, how can you have the experience of Jiang Xianconcubine? ."
"Yes, before the master was frightened, he always felt very stable," Tingzhu said with a smile, "but the slaves thought wrong."
Zhuang Luoyan had always thought that a romantic thing like taking a walk after the rain was actually a bit silly, but looking at a certain emperor who came in the rain, Zhuang Luoyan felt that this act was not stupid, but rather stupid.
As an emperor, Feng Jin naturally had no place to get wet, but the people who served him suffered a lot. Zhuang Luoyan asked the servants to take these people to change clothes, and he sat down by the window with Feng Jin.
In addition to seeing the small garden of Taoyu Pavilion by the window, you can only see the red walls and green tiles, as well as the water mist.
"Concubine Ai is watching this?" Feng Jin picked up the poetry collection Zhuang Luoyan had before, and said with a smile, "I don't know yet, Concubine Ai is also a talented woman."
"The emperor is making fun of the concubine," Zhuang Luoyan pointed to one of the poems. "This flower is raining, and the concubine wants to sleep when she sees it. You clearly know that the concubine doesn't love them, so you come to make fun of them."
"It turned out to be a misunderstanding of Concubine Ai," Feng Jin put the collection of poems aside at will, "Then tell me what you are good at on weekdays."
"Although the concubine is not proficient, but all these things are known. The emperor wants to ask the concubine what she is good at. The concubine must be best at each."
"I'm afraid you can't even do it," Feng Jin chuckled, pulling Zhuang Luoyan to sit beside him, "According to Zhen, what you are best at is eating, drinking and sleeping."
"Is the emperor saying that concubines are like pigs?" Zhuang Luoyan pouted, "Even if it is a pig, a concubine is a beautiful pig, which is rare."
"The Xihe Palace is almost settled. The day after tomorrow is auspicious, so you can move there." Feng Jin held Zhuang Luoyan's cheek with a very gentle look on his face, "If there is anything that is not satisfactory, Just ask the Shangshe Bureau to change it, and you don't need to inform others."
Zhuang Luoyan's heart trembled, did the emperor really dote on her, or did he want to see if she would be arrogant? She is a concubine from the third rank to move into the first palace, which is already a grace. If she is really dissatisfied with everything, then her mind is really not clear.
"I haven't seen the concubine yet, why does the emperor think that the concubine will be dissatisfied?" Zhuang Luoyan smiled and gently tugged at Feng Jin's sleeve, "Didn't you just laugh at the concubine's ability to eat, drink and sleep, as long as these three things are satisfied? Concubine, concubines are happy wherever they live."
"When I say this, you can't wait to admit it. Could it be that I will deduct your food or not?" Feng Jin smiled. In Zhuang Luoyan's opinion, this smile is not pure, she also smiled and replied, "If you say this, the emperor will not take it even more."
"You're so good," Feng Jin said suddenly. Seeing her dazed expression, he placed a kiss on her cheek and turned to look out the window, "It's raining less now, it's time for me to go back to the palace."
After speaking, he stood up, took two steps and looked back at Zhuang Luoyan, who was dressed in plain clothes and blue temples. "Concubine Ai doesn't have to be arrogant. External strengths are not rare, but rare things can't be learned."
Zhuang Luoyan watched Feng Jin leave the Taoyu Pavilion with a blank face. When Feng Jin's back was no longer visible, she shook her head. Didn't she just want to praise her for her beauty? As for using such a tactful and subtle speech? But what did the emperor come to do today
"Master, the slaves just saw the emperor's holy drive out of the Taoyu Pavilion," the little palace maid said softly beside Jiang Xianconcubine, "It seems that the emperor really cares about Zhao Chongyi."
"It's really attentive at the moment," Jiang Xianbi showed a slightly mocking smile on her face, "The emperor went to visit the sick Concubine Shu Gui on a snowy day last year, and last year the emperor went to coax Concubine Yan Gui, who had nightmares in the middle of the night, at the beginning of the year. Concubine Ning's birth mother went, and the emperor accompanied her for several nights, and now I come to see the frightened Zhao Chongyi, which really shows that Zhao Chongyi has received some holy favor."
The little palace maid was stunned, not knowing whether the master's words were mocking Zhao Chongyi for not being favored or sympathizing with Zhao Chongyi's temporary favor.
Seeing the appearance of the little palace maid, Jiang Xianci said lightly, "Go back, you don't have to inquire about Zhao Chongyi's affairs in the future."
She's just a stupid woman destined for fate.
