Standing in front of the window, looking at the palace lanterns hanging outside. The wind blew, and the fire flickered from side to side.
Yan Wushuang walked into the room, looked at Yuchen intently looking outside, and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Yuchen didn't lie to him either, and said: "It's the fourth day of this year, and the later talk is the day when Yun Qing became the throne." Yun Qing became the emperor, and Yuxi was the queen.
"I didn't expect Yun Qing to become the emperor one day." Such a reckless man would become the emperor and become the ruler of the world. Thinking about it, he felt incredible.
Yuchen felt the same way: "None of us thought that Yuxi would be the queen that day."
Yan Wushuang chuckled: "Han Yuxi, it's not just the queen." Seeing Yuchen was shocked, she didn't wait for her to ask and proactively said: "Yun Qing's enthronement ceremony will bring Han Yuxi to the Golden Luang Hall."
"How is this possible?" I have never heard of enthroned as the emperor, and took his wife to stand on the Jinluang Hall to accept the worship of the civil and military officials.
"The news is true." After speaking, Yan Wushuang said with admiration: "Let Han Yuxi accept the worship of the civil and military officials, it is like telling the world that Han Yuxi is equal to him." It is equivalent to saying that there are two. The emperor is now.
Yu Chen took a deep breath.
Yan Wushuang laughed, his smile full of sarcasm: "Yun Qing's hand is very beautiful. It can calm people's hearts and make Han Yuxi fall into love with him."
Yuchen felt that these words were harsh, and said in silence: "The emperor, maybe Yun Qing didn't think that way, but simply thought that he and Yuxi had defeated the world together, so he should accept the pilgrimage of the hundred officials together. Woolen cloth!"
Yan Wushuang was taken aback for a moment. Yuchen has been married to him for so many years, and this is the first time that he refutes his words so directly: "Do you think so?"
Yuchen nodded and said: "Yes. The emperor, according to what you said, Yun Qing is not a person who is good at calculations and has a deep mind. Then he certainly cannot use this method to win over Yuxi." On the contrary, in Yan Wushuang's In the words, Yun Qing is a reckless man with no thoughts.
After a pause, Yu Chen smiled bitterly and said: "Furthermore, if Yuxi is such a shrewd person, if Yun Qing is false, how can he escape her eyes."
Yan Wushuang smiled and said, "You are right, Han Yuxi's mind is much deeper than Yun Qing." In terms of play methods, neither Yun Qing is Han Yuxi's opponent.
Yuchen hesitated, and finally asked, "The emperor, can Liaodong really be kept under the attack of Donghu and Yun Qing?" She didn't have the slightest confidence.
Yan Wushuang asked, "Are you afraid?" After Yuxi's face was injured, she changed a lot. Not only does he act differently, but he also has more courage than before.
Yuchen shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid. I have suffered from sins and blessings in this life. Even if I die now, I have no regrets. But Achi and Abao's lives have just begun. If possible, I hope they can be safe, healthy and healthy. Live to be a hundred years old."
Yan Wushuang smiled and said, "You never said something like this before?" Faced with Yuchen's changes, Yan Wushuang was happy to see it happen. Yuchen used to be beautiful and versatile, but he was unpopular, and he felt more like a painted fairy than a living person. Yuchen now is very real.
Yuchen smiled and said, "People will always change."
Yan Wushuang likes this kind of change: "It doesn't matter if Liaodong can't keep it. Then I will let Achi and Abao retreat."
Yuchen asked suspiciously, "Retire all over?" Although Abao and Achi are not young, and have no feuds with Yun Qing and Yuxi, they are all in the game and want to be their children. It's easier said than done to retreat.
Yan Wushuang didn't want to say any more: "I was making arrangements five years ago, and I will send them away at that point." Specifically, Yan Wushuang didn't say any more.
Yu Chen shook his head and said: "Is it Wang Tu in the whole world? It is Wang Tu in the whole world. It is Wang Chen who leads the earth. Where can I send them..." Before he finished speaking, Yu Chen turned his head and looked at Yan Wushuang and asked. "Could it be that you want Achi to remain anonymous?" If that's the case, you can avoid Yun Qing and Han Yuxi's pursuit.
Yan Wushuang did not answer this question, but said: "You don't have to worry about this, I will arrange it."
Upon seeing this, Yuchen didn't ask any more, and couldn't ask anything.
Shixiang said outside: "Manny, the flower room sent a peony here."
Yuchen smiled and said; "Take it in!"
Yan Wushuang glanced at the blooming flowers and said, "Han Yuxi also likes to put flowers in the study. Your sisters have similar preferences in this respect."
While touching the flowers, Yu Chen said softly: "We grew up together since childhood, and some similar preferences are also very common." The voice was very soft, as if afraid of shocking the pot flower.
Except for the two sisters who like to put flowers in the house, they also don't like incense.
After a pause, Yuchen smiled and said, "But I haven't seen her like flowers in the Guogong's mansion before."
"Maybe it's not spoiled!" Spring and summer are okay. In winter, there are no flowers. Only the greenhouse can be cultivated. The price is not affordable for ordinary people. Even in the mansion of the government, an unfavored girl is not qualified to display it.
After hearing this, Yuchen laughed and said, "The so-called not being favored is just appearance. My grandmother and my father really don't like her, but the eldest aunt always loves her very much. The eldest mother is in charge of Zhongkui, and she is good at financial management. Yuxi’s food and clothing in the Guogong Mansion is not worse than mine. I have, and she basically has it."
After a pause, Yuchen added another sentence: "The eldest aunt took the Buddha to her. At first, it was because her biological mother saved her second cousin. Later, the relationship came out, and the eldest mother took her as her own daughter to protect her. Even if Monk Li Tong said that she was hit by the declining aunt, she did not dislike her, and adopted her under her own name."
Perhaps Yan Wushuang knew about Yuxi's previous affairs better than she herself.
Seeing that Yan Wushuang didn't reply, Yuchen laughed at himself: "Look at me, thinking about the past again. When I get old, I always think back to the past."
Although Yuchen had a slight scar on her face, this scar did not detract from her appearance.
Yan Wushuang looked at it and said softly, "Not old at all, but as good-looking as before." He will marry Yuchen, and besides wanting revenge, Yuchen is indeed good-looking. If it's an ugly monster, he definitely doesn't want it.
Yuchen was startled.
Yan Wushuang quickly changed the subject: "You have been recuperating for so long, now you can take care of palace affairs, right?"
"Didn't Concubine Shu take good care of her?" This really complimented Concubine Shu. After taking care of it for so many months, the people in the palace have already complained.
Yan Wushuang was silent and said, "Today I will let her hand over the palace affairs to you." Yuchen formulated a set of palace rules, and everyone must act in accordance with the palace rules. Concubine Shu handled things in accordance with the palace rules set by Yuchen. In fact, she detained palace people, and other places could save while saving. The reputation is saving. All the money saved went into her pocket.
Yuchen did not shirk, nodded in response.
As soon as Concubine Shu tasted the sweetness, the palace affairs were taken back by Yuchen, and she was very angry at the moment.
Grandma Gao also had a headache. She had said that everything followed the rules set by the imperial concubine, but Concubine Shu only did superficial work, in fact, everything was done according to her own will.
After smashing a few vases, Concubine Shu scolded: "This vixen has been disfigured and turned into an ugly monster and even hooked the emperor to listen to her." For those who are almost 30 years old, the appearance of Concubine Shu can't be compared to the past. Up. It would be fine if everyone was like this, but Yuchen hadn't grown old at all.
Before, Concubine Xiangshu hated Yuchen so she gritted her teeth, knowing that Yuchen was disfigured and was so happy that she wanted to set off firecrackers. No way I could think of it, they all hooked the emperor like that ghost.
Grandma Gao reluctantly persuaded: "Manny, for the sake of the third prince and the eldest princess, the emperor will not neglect the imperial concubine." This is all coaxing concubine Shu. Although the concubine's appearance was damaged, her talents were not damaged, and she did not complain about herself after being injured. On the other hand, my wife, who complains all day long, is not willing to come here anymore.
Concubine Shu said bitterly when she heard these words: "That mean girl." Concubine Shu still remembers that Abao flicked her whip. It's just that Abao has always been favored, and she can't get revenge.
Grandma Gao said hurriedly: "The empress said carefully. If the emperor hears more than us, even the empress is not good for you." She can hold it outside, and Concubine Shu never hides her temperament in her own palace. She and the two close-fitting court ladies have always been in fear for fear that Concubine Shu will be punished severely.
Concubine Shu lost her temper and sat on the chair to catch her breath: "Mother, what do you think Han Yuchen did? Not only does she become more and more beautiful after such a big age?" Yuchen, she was so jealous that she couldn't rush to grab Hua Yuchen's face.
Madam Gao had heard these words more than a hundred times. This is an unsolvable question, so Mother Gao changed the subject and said: "Do you think there are newcomers in the palace these years? Niang, the emperor is nostalgic for the past. It is good to the concubine because she has been with the emperor the longest time. "
Concubine Shu asked dubiously: "Really?"
"Niang, are there any newcomers in the palace in the past few years?" Five years ago, Yan Wushuang hadn't favored the newcomers anymore. From the harem to the present, there are only those few people.
Concubine Shu thought for a while and nodded and said: "You are right. Mother, then you tell me how can I get the emperor to come up to me and not look for the fox."
Grandma said: "Manny, you have to temper your temper. The emperor knows that you lost your temper to the palace and broke the furnishings in the house. Can you be happy?" Concubine Shu has not changed her temper for so many years. Instead, it is getting worse.
Concubine Shu was troubled and said, "I want to change it too, but can't it be changed?" Madam Gao gave her many suggestions, such as asking Concubine Shu to change her temper, and then tidy up the palace in a warm and comfortable way, so that Yan Wushuang came here. It feels like home. He Chou and Yan Wushuang don't come too often.
It's a pity that no matter what good advice, Concubine Shu can't do it. After a long time, Grandma Gao became a little discouraged. Had it not been for Concubine Shu who relied on her very much and the people behind her wanted her to do errands, she would have wanted to go out of the palace. It's so tired to follow such a master!
It took a long time to coax Concubine Xiang Shu. When Concubine Xiangshu entered the palace, the little eunuch dared to walk into the house to clean.
Cuiyu went to the Sishang Bureau to report the damage, only to touch the ashes of his nose. Seeing Grandma Gao, Cuiyu said bitterly: "Grandma, the people from Si Shangju said that there are no more vases. We need to find a way if we want to buy them." Concubine Xiang Shu has a grumpy temper and likes to smash things when she gets angry. , So I dare not put antiques or valuables in the house. However, the porcelain in Liaodong was shipped from the capital. A relatively delicate porcelain vase in Beijing may only be worth tens of taels, but in Liaodong it will cost hundreds of taels. The problem now is that the two families are at war, things cannot be shipped, and many things cannot be bought with money.
Grandma Gao was silent and said: "Tell your mother to report the truth!"
"I'm afraid it's the empress who knows that she's going to lose her temper again." Like a firecracker, she loses her temper whenever she doesn't like it. Like them, they are often scolded over the years. Fortunately, Concubine Shu just spoke but didn't do anything, otherwise no one would dare to wait.
Grandma Gao sighed and said, "You can't hide this matter if you want to hide it."
When Concubine Shu heard that Si Shangju did not make up for her, she scolded Cuiyu: "You are a dead person, don't you say that we pay for it by ourselves? This can't be done well. What do you want to do?"
Cuiyu said with a sad face, "I said, but the eunuch in charge said that there is no porcelain we want in the warehouse." Concubine Shu likes creamy white porcelain.
Concubine Shu scolded: "Do you have any brains, you know they are just doing it perfunctory."
Cuiyu lowered her head and didn't speak. Even if she knew the manager was perfunctory, could she still quarrel with the manager.
Concubine Shu scolded her, and in the end, it took a lot of effort for Grandma to calm her down.
After dinner, Concubine Shu suddenly changed her face when she saw the two dishes and one soup on the table: "What's the matter?"
Cuilian who went to fetch the meal wished she would become invisible, so that she would not have to bear the anger of Concubine Xiang Shu.
Seeing this, Grandma Gao rushed to comfort Concubine Xiang Shu, and asked Cuilian: "Why there are only two dishes and one soup?" Concubine Xiang Shu usually has four dishes and one soup. If the four princes or emperors eat here, they will add extra dishes. . If you want to add vegetables on weekdays, you have to pay for it yourself.
Cuilian said softly: "The imperial concubine said that the battle ahead is tough, and we can't be extravagant and wasteful in the back, so starting today, all the food and clothing costs will be halved."
Concubine Xiang Shu threw down the bowl and chopsticks, angrily rushed to the Ruyi Palace. At this time, Yuchen was having lunch.
Concubine Xiang Shu saw Yuchen, her eyes burst into flames: "Han Yuchen, why do you want to reduce my expenses?"
Yuchen said indifferently: "The battle ahead is difficult, and the money saved is sent to the soldiers. This is also our heart."
What Concubine Xiang Shu hates most is Yuchen's light-hearted appearance. If she really sees through Hongchen like this, she will go and become a nun, don't seduce the emperor!
Concubine Xiang Shu laughed and said: "You can calculate, take our money to make your own reputation."
Yuchen put down the chopsticks in his hand and said, "Not only you, but my daily expenses have also been reduced." Because Yuchen is a noble concubine, her treatment is one level higher than that of Concubine Xiang Shu. She usually has eight dishes and one soup, but today she only has two dishes and one soup. They are chicken shredded wormwood, braised eggplant and crucian carp soup.
Concubine Xiang Shu said: "That's your business, you want to stand..." At this moment, Grandma Gao coughed vigorously. Concubine Xiang Shu listened, paused and continued: "It's your business if you want to win your fame."
Yuchen glanced at Grandma Gao, but didn't speak.
