Chapter 33: The Concubine

Yuan Yuan and Zhou Xiaoxue fed the little goldfish in the East Palace for a while, and then Zhou Xiaoxue proposed to leave the palace and return home. Yuan Yuan asked Zhui Feng to take him home.

"Miss Xinxin, do you want to go and sleep for an hour? I will wake you up later for dinner?" Qing Yi saw the little girl yawning and thought that she was also tired. She was getting older and was rather sleepy.

"Okay." I originally wanted to let Qing Yi lead me back to the bedroom, but he was coaxed to sleep by Qing Yi after a while.

After exiting the original bedroom, Yan Huai happened to come back, "Your Highness, Miss Xinxin is asleep."

"Yes." Yan Huai responded in a low voice, passed her and stepped directly into the bedroom to see the little girl.

The weather in June is getting hotter, and Yuan Wan starts to feel restless when sleeping. He always likes to kick the quilt at night. When Yanhuai went in, he saw the little girl sleeping in a mess, and the quilt had fallen to the ground. Look, she was sleeping more blindly than usual.

Yan Huai had no choice but to pick up the quilt and cover the little girl gently as he was still busy while he was fooling around.

After leaving the dormitory, he saw that Qing Yi was still waiting. Yan Huai warned, "She is restless in her sleep. You should keep an eye on her at night. The weather has been hot recently. Cut out more summer clothes and pay attention to the food."

"Yes, I have taken note of it," Qing Yi responded warmly.

After Yan Huai left, Qing Yi called Cai Sang over to look after Yuan Yuan, and then went to the warehouse with Cai Ju to pick out clothing materials. After that, he told Yuan Yuan the style he liked, and Cai Ju sent it to the clothing bureau.

After explaining the matter, Qing Yi also started to go to the dining room to find Hua Yuchu to prepare dinner. The daily life in the East Palace was dull and complicated, but no one complained.

Kangning Palace.

"Chi'er, how are your homework lately?" Concubine De took a crystal dumpling for Yanchi and asked him about his homework in a soft voice.

Yanchi replied calmly, "It's acceptable."

Concubine De knew that her son resented her, but she had never been the type to be competitive, let alone the wrong things she had committed two years ago, her brother's threats, and her son's alienation. She had no choice but to do so.

I don't have the face to face everyone as if nothing happened, so I can only choose to hide from the world.

"Chi'er, I'm sorry for you, but let's not think about things that don't belong to us, okay? Let's just live quietly, okay?" Concubine De persuaded somewhat feebly. Her son has been in close contact with his brother recently.

, forcing her to re-examine her brother's intentions.

"Enough, concubine! I don't want to hear it! Haven't I been quiet enough these years? If I hadn't been alive, who would have known that there would be a second prince like me? Am I not quiet enough? Do you know that every time I watch my father teach me

Brother Emperor, how envious was I when you doted on Yanze!"

Yanchi hated Concubine De's cowardice. She knew that her uncle was a general with a heavy army, but she didn't do much to control him. She also prevented him from interacting with her uncle. How could there be such a mother in the world who would destroy her child's future!

"Chi'er, why do you need to compare yourself with others? Your father really loves you." Concubine De looked at her somewhat paranoid son and became even more powerless.

"Concubine, why should I deceive myself? My father doesn't treat me one-third as well as my brother. He has never asked about my studies, nor has he ever greeted me like he cared about Yanze! Why on earth are you doing this, concubine?"

To escape from the world?"

Yanchi didn't understand. His mother-in-law clearly liked to take him to Weiyang Palace to accompany the Queen, but from now on, she would not leave Kangning Palace easily unless there was a major festival.

Concubine De didn't want her son to know the evil deeds she had done so obsessively. Now, she just wanted to live quietly and wait until the right time to atone for her sins.

"Well, if you really want to associate with your uncle, then it's up to you. It's just Chi'er. Concubine Mu hopes that you will think twice before doing anything." The son felt aggrieved, and Concubine De did not want the mother and son to do anything.

If there is any further misunderstanding, we can only comply with his wishes.

Seeing that Concubine De no longer stopped him, Yan Chi's face was no longer so cold, "Yes, I understand."

After dinner, Concubine De ordered someone to send Yanchi back to the prince's residence, while she went to the small Buddhist hall.

Nanny Feng lit a stick of incense for her and handed it to her. Looking at her master's frown, Nanny Feng thought about the grievances the second prince had suffered in the past two years and couldn't help but persuade Concubine De, "Your Majesty, back then

You are also a victim, why do you have to hold yourself against yourself anymore? You see how wronged our second prince is, you have always refused him to associate with the general, do you know that there is no one to accompany him in this deep palace?"

"The second prince will resent you only because he feels bitter. Madam, please let it go and go see your majesty more often so that the second prince can also get some attention from your majesty."

Aunt Feng persuaded her earnestly, but Concubine De never wavered in the slightest, "Mom, I am a sinner. I don't want to disturb Sister Wen's remaining time anymore. This is what I owe her."

"There's no need to say any more, Mammy, I've made up my mind." After Concubine De said, she began to knock on the wooden fish and recite Buddhist scriptures. Mammy Feng didn't dare to disturb her anymore, so she could only stay by her side quietly.

In Weiyang Hall, Nanny Tang helped Queen Wen lie down on the bed, and covered her with a thin quilt distressedly. She couldn't help but resent the injustice of God, "Our master is so kind and peaceful, but he can't show mercy, this lame God!

"

Queen Wen couldn't help but smile when she heard her childlike words, and comforted her softly, "Why do you have to be angry with God? From the moment I saw those people being admitted into the palace, I knew he would never come back."

Protect me."

"Master..." Nanny Tang felt sorry for her. She was obviously born in a family of Zhongmingdingshi, but in the end she was still trapped in this deep palace.

"Mammy, I'm a little tired." Queen Wen closed her eyes tiredly, and Grandma Tang had no choice but to stop making any noise to disturb her master's sleep.

The days passed day by day, and by late June, the weather was getting hotter and hotter. Emperor Yan had to place four large basins of ice cubes to cool down every day when handling official duties in the Qinzheng Hall. In addition, in addition to the needs of the various palaces in the harem,

No matter how full the national treasury is, it cannot help being so busy.

"Wan'er, the sun is getting hotter and fiercer. Aunt Tang said that you have been having trouble sleeping these past few days and your complexion is getting worse and worse." Emperor Yan glanced at the Queen Wen's bedroom and saw that there was only a small plate of ice cubes placed there, and stood up immediately.

Get up and have a seizure.

"How outrageous! This is how you serve your master! How dare you deprive your master of ice? It's a heinous crime! Come here, pull these evil slaves down and beat them twenty times!"

Emperor Yan was so furious that all the palace maids were so frightened that they knelt down and begged for mercy, "Your Majesty, have mercy on me! Your Majesty, have mercy on me!"

"Your Majesty, it's my concubines who don't let them let go anymore, don't blame them." Queen Wen held his hand and said.

"Wan'er, I know you don't want to be extravagant, but the weather is so hot, you have to take care of yourself first." Emperor Yan hugged her into his arms with distress.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I just have no appetite. It's too hot today and I can't eat anything." Queen Wen said feebly. She was afraid of heat and naturally couldn't sleep at night.

"Wan'er, I just want to tell you today that in a few days we will go to the palace to escape the summer heat. It will be cool there, so you won't have to endure this torture again." Emperor Yan had sent people to the palace a few days ago.

After cleaning it, all the supplies were ready and waiting for them to pass.
