My God, Boyang Palace is still outside the scope of the harem. Regardless of whether she knows the way or not, if she wants to enter the harem, she has to explain why she came out. When he was brought out just now, there seemed to be no one guarding the gate of the harem, but if he wanted to go back now, there must be someone blocking the way.
Prince Xi really worked hard, no matter if she was a man or a woman, he never planned to let her go.
"Master, what should we do?" Rui'er asked her in a low voice.
After thinking for a while, Hua Chun said: "You first find a way to go back alone, and then report to the emperor, asking him to pick me up quietly."
Rui'er opened her eyes wide and looked at her in disbelief: "Go directly to the emperor?"
"En." Hua Chun nodded: "Go."
This... Rui'er can't understand it. If the emperor finds out that his master is outside, wouldn't that cause misunderstanding? She is still so bold
Rui'er has been in the palace for several years, and she thinks she knows the emperor a little bit. With the emperor's indifferent personality, would she trust Hua Zhaoyi and come to help her
Walking forward hesitantly, she looked back at her master many times, but saw that she had already started running to the side, as if she was looking for a place to hide.
Before the emperor finds her, other people can't let others find her first. Classmate Hua Chun, who is as witty as Hua Chun, immediately found an eaves, borrowed a pile of hemp ropes next to her, climbed to the beams under the eaves and squatted.
This place is high and there are not many people, so it should be enough to last until the emperor arrives, right
After Yu Wenjie finished his work, he was invited to Qinghe Hall by Concubine Hui. He has been staying in the Hall of Mental Cultivation for the past few days, and he himself knows that something is wrong, but he just can't control his feet. Now that someone is stopping him, he will go along with the flow and come here to reduce Hua Chun's limelight.
"Look at this concubine, all the sisters in the harem like Hua Zhaoyi very much." Concubine Hui said with a smile, "Lan Zhaoyi also specially entrusted me to send a generous gift, which is also very thoughtful."
Lan Zhaoyi? Yu Wenjie tried his best to recall, it seemed that it was a person he used to favor a long time ago.
"It's the same Zhaoyi, she gave Hua Zhaoyi a generous gift, and now Hua Zhaoyi has nothing to return." He said, "Go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get the red coral string and agate bracelet that you paid tribute to last year, and return it to Hua Zhaoyi. Let's go back."
Concubine Hui smiled: "The emperor is really considerate, and the concubines will let people do it later."
Nodding, the emperor sat on the soft couch and looked out the window. It was a gloomy day, and it might rain again.
"Your majesty...will you rest here with my concubine today?" After hesitating for a while, Concubine Hui asked cautiously.
The emperor was slightly stunned, thought for a while, and nodded.
When he went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he was afraid that that girl would become a target within two days, causing her to be shot to pieces.
Concubine Hui was overjoyed, and hurriedly arranged things for the palace servants to prepare for bathing, with a shy expression on her face: "The emperor finally thinks of my concubine."
This has nothing to do with whether you think about it or not. If someone else said this today, as long as it wasn't Hua Chun, he would have to nod. Concubine Hui has a big heart, if she can help Hua Chun a little, her life will be better.
"Your Majesty." Eunuch Qin came in, leaned over and whispered in his ear: "Rui'er from the Hall of Mental Cultivation is outside, and he said that there is something urgent, please go to the emperor."
His heart sank, and the emperor frowned: "What's the hurry? Is there any serious problem?"
Eunuch Qin pursed his lips, looked at Concubine Hui next to her who was trying to eavesdrop, and lowered his voice, "There is nothing serious about her, but the emperor needs to go over."
Yu Wenjie pursed his lips, glanced at the expectant Concubine Hui next to him, and said, "Since she's fine, she should be able to handle it herself with her abilities."
"This..." Eunuch Qin looked at him in embarrassment: "Why won't the emperor come over?"
"I can't pass, you go and see for me."
I have promised Concubine Hui, if I leave now, won't it make people hate that girl
Eunuch Qin agreed, and took a small step to retreat.
"Your Majesty, what's the matter with the younger sister of which palace?" Concubine Hui smiled, but her brows were slightly furrowed, and she said in a slightly joking and serious tone: "Every time it's the concubine's turn to serve the bed, there is always someone Then something will happen to the two younger sisters."
"No big deal." Yu Wenjie said, "I won't leave."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Hui was relieved, she poured tea for the emperor with a gentle smile, and vacated the table for the emperor to put the booklet.
There was a bang of thunder, and the rain fell again. Hua Chun listened to the sound of the rain hitting the tiles above her head, and looked at the palace people who ran past from time to time to hide from the rain in the distance, and suddenly felt that it was quite emotional.
If it weren't for her squatting posture being so ugly, she would be suitable for reciting a poem and expressing her beautiful feelings.
Her feet are numb, she has been squatting for at least half an hour, and she has not seen Ruier come back, she was complaining, when suddenly she saw a court lady and a eunuch holding two umbrellas in the distance, like two small mushrooms Just slipped over here.
"Hey! I'm here!" Hua Chun howled hastily.
Rui'er heard it, and brought Eunuch Qin under the eaves, shook the oil-paper umbrella, looked up at her in astonishment: "Master, how did you climb up?"
"Use a rope." Hua Chun pointed to the pile of things at their feet: "You throw it to me, and I'll hang it down."
Eunuch Qin couldn't laugh or cry: "Hua Zhaoyi, why are you here?"
"It's a long story." Hua Chun pouted and looked at him: "Where's the emperor?"
Eunuch Qin paused, and told a white lie: "The emperor has a meeting with his important ministers in Zichen Hall, and there is no way he can leave."
"Oh." She understood this.
Following the rope down the eaves, she looked at Eunuch Qin with some embarrassment: "Can you take me back to the harem?"
Eunuch Qin bowed and said: "This servant will take you back in the name of the emperor for the time being, and I will explain the situation to the emperor later."
"Okay." Hua Chun nodded, shared an umbrella with Rui Er, and ran towards the harem with him.
Rui'er glanced at her master's shining eyes, and she was on the tip of her tongue when she had something to say, but she couldn't say anything after glancing at Eunuch Qin.
Eunuch Qin's attitude towards other concubines is quite arrogant, but he is very kind and protective towards Hua Chun. Rui'er didn't understand why, but she knew it was a good thing. Then there is no need to expose the little lie he told.
After entering the harem, halfway through the road, Hua Chun said: "Let's go directly to the Zichen Hall. You see, it's raining heavily, and the skirt is soaked. The Zichen Hall is closer than the Hall of Mental Cultivation."
Eunuch Qin panicked, and quickly said: "The emperor is busy in the Zichen Palace, and he said that no one will disturb you. You are a member of the harem now, so it is best not to go."
"No." Hua Chun gestured to him: "Isn't there a front hall and a back hall in Zichen Hall? The emperor usually receives courtiers in the front hall, why don't we go to the back hall?"
"You should go directly to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."
It was raining and the surroundings were cool, but Eunuch Qin was still in a cold sweat from being frightened, and looked at Hua Chun pleadingly: "There are no clothes for you to change in Zichen Hall."
"I see." Feeling that Eunuch Qin was a little weird, Hua Chun glanced at him, but didn't think much about it.
On the way back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Hua Chun passed by Zichen Hall, and Hua Chun glanced at it inadvertently.
Because of the rain, the surrounding area was gloomy and dark, but none of the lights in Zichen Hall were turned on.
Um
Doubtful in his heart, Hua Chun didn't rush to ask. When he arrived at the Hall of Mental Cultivation and looked at the bright lights in the palace, he smiled and said: "I thought the palace was saving candles, and they don't light up in this weather."
Eunuch Qin said with a smile: "Your Majesty is worrying too much. Naturally, candles will not be saved. The emperor also likes the surroundings to be bright."
"Really?" Hua Chun stopped smiling, and looked at him seriously: "Then why aren't the lights lit in Zichen Hall?"
Eunuch Qin was taken aback, his face paled, he lowered his head and said, "Maybe I forgot."
"Yeah." Hua Chun nodded, "I believe."
There was a chill behind his back, these two words should sound reassuring, but for some reason, now that Hua Zhaoyi spits it out so calmly, Eunuch Qin feels flustered.
"The old slave continues to go back to serve the emperor, the empress take care."
"En." Watching him go out, Hua Chun calmly sat down on the chair in the main hall.
"Master?" Qing Ling came out, looking at her anxiously: "Why are you still sitting when you're all wet? Come quickly, this servant will change your clothes for you."
Looking down at herself, Hua Chun stood up, let Qing Niao wipe her body and change her clothes without saying a word, then sat on the chair with the ginger tea she made and continued to be in a daze.
"Xiaoqing, where has the emperor gone?"
Rui'er's heart skipped a beat, and she was about to wink at Xiao Qing, but before she had time, Qing Niao blurted out: "I went to Concubine Hui's Palace, and said that I will rest there tonight."
"You just went there, right?" Rui'er hurriedly said, "After all, it's been a long time since I went to see Concubine Hui."
Looking at her strangely, Qing Ling said straightforwardly: "Hasn't it been an hour?"
Rui'er's face turned pale, she winked at her vigorously, looked at her master with downcast eyes, and then shook her head.
Qing Ling quickly came to her senses, and said with a dry smile: "It may have been half an hour...or, it was only the time for a stick of incense to go."
"Let's eat." Hua Chun ignored the two of them, touched his belly and said, "I'm hungry."
"Chuan Shan!" Rui'er howled immediately, and the people outside responded and went down to prepare.
Seeing that Hua Chun didn't say anything superfluous, Qing Ling was a little anxious, waved her hand to signal the others to go out first, then sat next to her and said: "Master, if you want to open up, there are more people in the harem than you with backgrounds and backgrounds." , the emperor can't stay with us all the time."
"I know." Hua Chun nodded: "When you are an emperor, you should be exposed to both rain and dew, otherwise the harem will easily cause bloody storms."
But I understand the truth, and I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, not much, just a little.
This feeling of guarding a house and waiting for a man to come is really terrible, and what's worse is not being able to wait, which is completely inconsistent with her style of a self-reliant and self-improving beautiful girl in the 21st century.
"Master eats first, and the servants can continue to tell you stories after they are finished." Qing Niao said with a smile: "It's been a long time."
"En." Hua Chun agreed, shook her head, stood up and walked to the table.
