Chapter 402 Merlin's Favor
Zhonghe Palace
Qiaoxin walked in
"Your Majesty, the news just came from Ci'an Palace. The Queen Mother was angry because of the eldest princess and accidentally hit Shu Jieyu on the forehead. Shu Jieyu took the initiative to say that there was no need to call the imperial physician. The Queen Mother was very satisfied. Now, Shu Jieyu has returned to the palace."
Lin Junxue put down the book
"You mean, since Concubine Shu asked for it, there's no need to call the imperial physician?"
Qiao Xin replied, "Your Majesty, it is true. The Queen Mother accidentally injured Shu Jieyu. If the doctor were to be called and the news were to spread, it would be bad. Shu Jieyu is also smart and took the initiative to speak up. She is so sensible. I believe that the Queen Mother will trust and rely on her more in the future."
Lin Junxue slowly curled her lips, her eyes deepened
This Shu Jieyu is indeed getting smarter and smarter, but she feels that this move is not just to please the empress dowager.
"Ask Danzhen to invite the emperor to the plum forest and tell him that I want to invite the emperor to enjoy the plum blossoms and drink wine."
"My lady, I will go right away."
"Go to Ning'an Palace and tell Shu Jieyu"
Qiao Xin smiled and said, "Don't worry, Madam. I will go to Ning'an Palace right away."
Lin Junxue waved her hand and continued, lowering her head to read.
Next month, it will be the end of the year. If you want to read leisurely, these few days are the best time.
Since coming to this ancient time, books have become a good way to kill time.
In modern times, she would get a headache whenever she saw a book, but now, she is accompanied by books every day.
People, they're gonna change.
Ning'an Palace
Qin Shushu looked at Qiao Xin
"I understand. Please ask Aunt Qiaoxin to convey my gratitude to the Queen."
Qiao Xin said, "Shu Jieyu, I will take my leave now."
After Qiao Xin left
Qin Shushu's personal maid Qiao'er stepped forward
"Your Majesty, this Queen is really strange. The Queen invited the Emperor to go to Meilin to drink and appreciate the flowers, but why did she come to tell you specifically? Is this a demonstration?"
Qin Shushu turned around and looked at Qiao'er, whom she met by chance in the Imperial Garden after she lost her child a few months ago.
At that time, she was punished by the aunt in charge, but she saved Qiao'er and has been following her ever since.
Qiao'er is a maid who has just entered the palace. She is innocent and loyal.
"The Queen doesn't need to demonstrate to a mere concubine like me. She is just giving me a chance."
Qiao Er shakes his head
"My lady, I don't understand what you mean. What kind of opportunity is this?"
Qin Shushu didn't explain much and just asked Qiao'er to prepare the dress.
She must seize this opportunity.
If it weren't for the queen, she would have had to put in a lot of effort. Now, the queen has given her this opportunity.
Here
After Xie Yu finished handling government affairs, he took Gao Cheng to Meilin.
When we arrived at Merlin, we saw a woman standing under a tree. She had a graceful figure, but she was wearing thin clothes.
Xie Yu walked over and hugged the woman from behind.
"My dear, I am here"
Next second
Qin Shushu turned around, pushed Xie Yu away in panic, and knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Good Luck"
Xie Yu looked at Qin Shushu who was kneeling on the ground, with a flash of surprise in his eyes, and said in a deep voice, "It's you? Shu Jieyu, why are you here?"
Qin Shushu shrank back and spoke cautiously
"Your Majesty, today, I wanted to go out for a walk and accidentally walked into the plum forest. Seeing that the plum blossoms were in full bloom, I wanted to stay here alone for a while. I didn't expect that Your Majesty would come."
Xie Yu's brows relaxed
Qin Shushu looked cautious and lovable. Thinking back to these days, I saw her several times in Ci'an Palace, and she always looked well-behaved and sensible.
"So that's how it is. Get up, Shu Jieyu"
Qin Shushu stood up
"I didn't know the emperor would come today. I'm leaving now so as not to disturb the emperor's interest."
Xie Yu's eyes were deep. In his eyes, Qin Shushu now had a different charm, and it was obvious that she had some thoughts.
Xie Yu said, "Since it is a reward for Mei, please come with me. Gao Cheng, bring the cloak over here."
Gao Cheng stepped forward and handed over the cloak in his hand.
Xie Yu personally put the cloak on Qin Shushu
Qin Shushu's face was filled with emotion, her eyes were red and full of affection.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Upon seeing this, Gao Cheng waved to the people behind him, and the servants immediately retreated to a distance.
Gao Cheng glanced at the two people admiring the plum blossoms and sighed.
The emperor became thoughtful. What should he do when the queen comes?
Xie Yu and Qin Shushu admired the plum blossoms for a while and then entered the warm room in the plum forest.
Gao Cheng and his men were guarding the door
After a while, the panting sounds of a man and a woman were heard from inside.
Gao Cheng looked up at the sky and prayed in his heart that the Queen would come later, otherwise something bad would happen.
Just after he finished praying in his heart, Gao Cheng saw the phoenix carriage approaching in the distance.
His heart skipped a beat
This is the end. What if the Empress sees the Emperor and Concubine Shu being intimate in the house? Wouldn't she cause a commotion?
Before Gao Cheng had time to think, Lin Junxue had already gotten out of the sedan chair and walked over with Guyu.
Gao Cheng hurried over to meet him.
"Your servant pays respects to Her Majesty the Queen, may Her Majesty be blessed with good health and good health."
Lin Junxue's eyes fell on the warm room
"Get up, Eunuch Gao. Is the Emperor in the warm room?"
Gao Cheng's face changed slightly, and he hesitated to speak.
Lin Junxue took a step forward, and Gao Cheng hurriedly blocked Lin Junxue's way.
Lin Junxue frowned
"Eunuch Gao, what are you doing?"
Gao Cheng knew he couldn't hide it anymore, so he had to bite the bullet and speak up.
"Empress, please go back first. The Emperor just arrived at Meilin and met Concubine Shu."
Next second
The color on Lin Junxue's face disappeared, his eyes were full of disbelief, and he couldn't help but take a step back.
Guyu hurried forward to support
"My lady, let's go back first."
for a while
Lin Junxue said, "Eunuch Gao, there is no need to tell the emperor that I have been here. I will return to the palace first."
After Lin Junxue finished speaking, she turned around, and the sad expression on her face disappeared instantly.
On Palace Road
Lin Junxue opened the curtain
Guyu said, "Your Majesty, today, I didn't expect that Shu Jieyu was still capable. She actually seduced the emperor and did that thing in the warm room of Meilin. The emperor kept saying that he loved you, but today he didn't care about your face at all. He knew you would come, but he still favored Shu Jieyu."
Lin Junxue curled her lips
"The emperor is the Son of Heaven. When he favors the concubines in the harem, does he need to choose a specific occasion or location? It all depends on whether the emperor wants to do so."
Guyu said, "Your Majesty, just now, you specifically told Eunuch Gao not to tell the Emperor that you had been here. I'm afraid that Eunuch Gao would not listen to you."
Lin Junxue said calmly, "Of course Gao Cheng will not listen to me. I just want to let the emperor know that I have been here, heard and seen everything, and I am sad."
The voice just fell
Zhuxi was coming towards him, with red bricks and white snow, and he was walking slowly from not far away.
Walking alone in the lonely snow and wind, his monk's robe fluttering in the wind, he looks like the cold moon in the sky, so high and unattainable.
Guyu said, "My Lady, it's Master Buddha."
Lin Junxue looked over, Zhuxi raised her eyes, and their gazes met in mid-air, but only for a second, then they looked away again.
When they arrived, the sedan chair stopped and Zhuxi also stopped.
"Greetings, Queen."
Lin Junxue raised her eyebrows and her eyes fell on the jade pendant on Zhuxi's waist.
"Buddha, be well"
