Youxi, the maid of space

Chapter 24 The Ruthless Emperor

After Ziyue returned to Jichang Garden, she sat down and drank a cup of tea, and asked Nanny Li to arrange to meet the palace servants who served her.She knew she was pregnant, so she had to pay more attention to everything, except for Nanny Li and Yufu, other people might have been involved.Based on her status and the fact that the emperor will not recruit her again, even beating these people is useless.

Thinking, Ziyue can only get through the first one or two months first, and life should be easier.At least then, she can clearly take precautions.

After the imperial concubine returned to her palace, she played chess on the chessboard, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.In her previous life, she only knew how to use the emperor's favor and prominent family background to oppress and beat people, but she didn't know that these were short-lived reminders.In this life, she wants those who have laughed at her to crawl under her feet without the power to fight back. When they see her, they can only obey and be afraid!

Jinran served a cup of tea for the imperial concubine and stood behind her.

The imperial concubine took a sip unhurriedly, and said: "Let people pay more attention to Concubine Zhuang. According to her temperament, I'm afraid she will make a fuss."

In response, Jinran smiled and said, "Concubine Zhuang is used to winning the emperor's love and affection with her pitiful appearance, the master's punishment this time can be said to be well-received, and her prestige will definitely win over the past."

The imperial concubine stared at the chessboard for a moment, and said slowly: "The prestige of this palace is due to the power in my hands and the power of my mother's family. If both of them are gone, tell me, who else would be afraid of this palace?" A bitter smile flashed in her eyes, and she turned her head to look at Jin Ran: "The reason why Concubine Zhuang was punished was because she shouldn't have made a mistake, and she was caught by this palace. So even so, this palace punished her , no matter how much the emperor loves her, he can't touch me, and he will praise me for being selfless and handling it well!"

With a flash in Jinran's eyes, he immediately figured out the twists and turns, but he couldn't help asking: "Since your empress thinks so clearly, then Concubine Zhuang will definitely sue the emperor, won't her one-sided words ruin her reputation? !"

The noble concubine was all smiles when she heard the words, but there was no worry in her eyes, she said leisurely: "The emperor is a wise king, and he has a deep affection with the mother and son of the empress dowager. Everyone knows what happened in front of the empress dowager today, and I am afraid that it will be heard in the emperor's ears right now. , even if Concubine Zhuang is confusing black and white, the emperor has already made up his mind, and it is not up to others to decide who is right and who is wrong."

Jinran smiled slightly, bent her knees and said, "Your Majesty is very thoughtful."

The imperial concubine picked up a white jade chess piece, stared at the chessboard and thought slowly.Men have preferences for women, and the current emperor only likes women who are weak, sick and beautiful. After two lifetimes, she has already known that she will never be able to pretend to be like that.Thinking that her child died at the hands of such a person in her previous life, she felt even more hatred in her heart!

In this life, if she has no children, her brother will not have the desire to make plans early on. In addition to her occasional hints and her brother's reply, she believes that his brother will not follow the old path of the previous life.In this life, she does not dream of being favored by the emperor, power and revenge are what she wants to do in this life!Those former friends, she wants them all to pay in blood!
Ning Guiren?Ning Gui is not a weak woman, but this person who suddenly appeared should not be that simple.Whether it is simple or not, she has no enmity with Ning Guiren, so she will not care about her, if her appearance can avenge her, that would be even better.

Sure enough, Concubine Zhuang was just as the noble concubine said, when she cried to the emperor, the emperor was annoyed.He likes people who obey the rules, and he will never let others be frivolous in front of his mother. After hearing Concubine Zhuang's cry, he immediately reprimanded her and walked away.Although he didn't like the imperial concubine much, but since the imperial concubine took care of the affairs of the harem, he only had rules and never let him worry about it. Based on this, he also respected the imperial concubine.In addition, the elder brother of the imperial concubine is a dependable minister, so he loves the imperial concubine even more.It's one thing to like Zhuang Concubine, but it's not good to know what to do with him.

After the emperor left Concubine Zhuang's palace, Concubine Zhuang's confinement was increased from one month to three months, and the number of times of copying the palace rules was increased from one hundred to three hundred times. All the concubines in the palace were happy.When the noble concubine heard it, she didn't show much expression. She had already expected the emperor's behavior like this.Your Majesty, you have always been so cold!Why was she blinded by it in her previous life, thinking that the emperor was just sentimental? !
Ziyue was not in the mood to discuss Concubine Zhuang's situation, she was still thinking about the Queen Mother. After moving to Jichang Garden, Ziyue would go to pay her respects to the Queen Mother every day, serve the Queen Mother for meals, talk with the Queen Mother, and share the research results with her. Some new dishes are presented.Sometimes when I have fun, the Queen Mother will keep her son for lunch.

As for the matter of paying respects to all the concubines, I saw that the emperor never asked Ziyue to serve him, and he never saw her. At first, some people sarcastically said to Ziyue in conversation, but after Ziyue calmed down, others did not see her getting angry. Too much, the queen mother also spoke out to defend it once, and the others stopped thinking about it.

Wang Chongyuan wanted to satirize Mrs. Ning Gui and rushed to curry favor with the Queen Mother, but she knew that she could not say these words. It is filial piety to greet the Queen Mother and accompany the Queen Mother to relieve her fatigue. .

Sometimes when meeting the emperor, Ziyue would make excuses to avoid it, the queen mother asked the reason once, but she just sighed and felt sorry for Ziyue.Because of aphrodisiacs, he was forced to favor a court lady who was not of stunning beauty. The emperor must have resentment in his heart, and he would definitely not have a good face when he saw Ziyue. The queen mother felt that Ziyue knew the current affairs and knew his duty. But he also sincerely pity Zi said.With Zi Yue's temperament, if he waits until he reaches the age to leave the palace, he will definitely find a confidant, but it's a pity...

During this period of time, the servants in Jichang Garden have also figured out the new master's temperament, and they don't like to take care of things very much, leaving everything to be taken care of by Nanny Li and Yufu.They were originally contemptuous people, but seeing that their master was loved by the queen mother, and Li Nanny was an old man beside the queen mother, their contempt was gone.

Today is the day when all the concubines pay their respects together. Ziyue didn't stay in the Empress Dowager's palace for a long time. After returning to Jichang Garden, she began to fiddle with embroidery. This is a joy she found recently. After a month or two of study, in Under Yufu's careful guidance, Ziyue can now embroider some simple things.Whenever she is free, she will embroider some patterns, and Yufu can understand what the master is going to embroider.

Every time Grandma Li saw it, she felt sorry for wasting good things. Those fabrics were rewarded by the Queen Mother, soft and luxurious, but they were used by her master to practice her hands.Nanny Li is living a good life now, even better than when she was in Kangshou Palace.

Although Ziyue was close to Nanny Li, he still knew the difference in status, so he didn't let her go or put himself down.Nanny Li has served the Empress Dowager for many years, the more she looked at her, the more she felt that Ziri was calm and calm, she had a certain amount of advance and retreat, she knew how to delegate power, but she also knew how to hold on to the fundamentals, so she naturally liked her more and more in her heart.There is also Yufu who has the same feeling. When she was in Weiyang Palace, the emperor didn't value her so much. Now that she changed to a different place, even though it is a small place, she should be valued by all the servants.

As soon as Nanny Li came in, she saw Ziyue embroidering something, looked at the piece of fabric in her hand, and shook her head unconsciously with a smile. Suddenly, she thought of something and asked, "Master, let's move here It's been two months since Jichang Garden, why didn't you come to your little day once?"

This kind of thing can be big or small, although the master is not welcome by the emperor now, but the body needs to be recuperated, and there is no guarantee that the emperor will think of his master someday. Chance to give birth.In the eyes of old people like them in the palace, a healthy body is the only way to stand up. The emperor's favor is a fantasy.

Ziyue raised his head for a moment, and made a no big deal expression: "Don't worry, mama, I'm still young, and it's not uncommon for my days to be uncertain."

"You can't ignore the little days." Li Mama's expression was serious, and she ordered Yufu beside her: "Go and ask the master to see an imperial physician."

Yu Fu looked at his master, saw her nodding in confusion, and then left.

Nanny Li is not angry at Yufu's behavior, it's a rule, no matter how much she is loved by her master, she is still a servant, after Yufu left, she took the embroidery work in Ziyue's hand and put it aside, and then Helping Ziyue out of the dormitory, he went to the side hall to wait for the imperial physician, and on the way he did not forget to say: "Master is young now, don't be careless, a woman's childhood is very important, so you can't be sloppy."

Zi said with a soft smile: "I'm really fine. Mommy sees that I eat well, sleep soundly, and feel good every day. What can it do?" After a pause, he smiled again: "I know Mammy cares about my body, just listen to mammy and let the imperial physician take a look at it, but if the imperial physician prescribes some extremely bitter medicine, mammy has to persuade me to see if there are other prescriptions for me."

Mother Li laughed when she heard the words: "Master, how old is he, are you still afraid of taking medicine?"

Ziyue pouted, "That's really bitter."

Nanny Li patted Ziyue's hand, looked at Ziyue with a smile, and said, "Good medicine tastes bitter. At that time, this old servant will prepare more candied fruit for the master, and it will be over in a while. The body is the most important thing. The master is a smart person, sure." You don’t need to be taught by old slaves, right?”

Ziyue tilted his head, looking weak: "Mammy is right." After a moment's pause, he looked at Li Nanny anxiously: "But does Mammy really bear the heart for me to drink that bitter juice every day? You Isn't it my favorite?"

Seeing Ziyue's little aggrieved expression, Nanny Li was almost amused, but finally sullenly said, "Master is too worried, the imperial doctor hasn't come yet, we don't count on taking medicine at this time. Just now The master also said that he was in good health, why did he become wilted all of a sudden?"

Treating his own body with his own way, Ziyue looked at Li Nanny's old face with an innocent expression, and laughed unkindly: "Mommy is so funny, looking at Nanny like this Son, even if there is a bitter medicine, I am not afraid of that bitter medicine anymore."

"Master, as long as you're happy!" After Madam Li finished speaking, someone came in to announce that Yufu had brought the imperial doctor here, and had just entered the door.
