Chapter 93

"Tao Xin, listen, is the emperor here?" She held her breath, clasped her hands in front of her body, and listened nervously.

Putting down the work in hand, Tao Xin reluctantly bit her lower lip. In this case, Shi Jieyu would say several times a day, "Young lady, the emperor hasn't come back yet."

Seeing that her expression gradually dimmed, the woman couldn't bear it, and stepped forward, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is out on business and will be back soon."

Shi Jieyu's silent face showed a bit of sadness, and her hands were twisted together, even a little helpless, "If I hadn't pestered Li Yan, I would still think that the emperor is in the palace now. Tao Xin , tell me, does the emperor not trust me anymore?"

Knowing that she would be thinking wildly, Tao Xin immediately waved her hand, "Your Majesty, the Emperor must be worried that you are worried, besides, you are weak, how can the Emperor have the heart to make you work so hard for him?"

Shi Jieyu's complexion was very bad. After hearing her words, she felt a little better in her heart. She pursed her lips slightly and coughed a few times, "Will the emperor come to Jingye Palace when he comes back?"

Tao Xin nodded without thinking, and began to comfort her, "Don't worry, your majesty, the first place the emperor stepped into must be Jingye Palace." Normally, Tao Xin couldn't see Gu Yezi's friendship with her. Now that Shi Jieyu is seriously ill, she becomes more determined.

"Niangniang, Niangniang..."

The two were talking, only to hear a rush of announcements from outside, and in the blink of an eye, a maid ran in panting, "The emperor... the emperor is back."

Shi Jieyu felt a bright light in front of her eyes, and the depression in her heart dissipated, "What did you say?"

"Your Majesty..." The servant girl blushed and patted her chest with one hand, full of joy, "I just saw that the emperor and the empress have returned, and at this moment, I went to Fenglian Palace."

The two came out of the palace together, and now, it is human nature to go to Fengyu Palace first to meet the wind.Shi Jieyu stroked her thin face with one hand, her expression was a little nervous, and she called Tao Xin over, "Quick, give me a simple bun, and you, take the auspicious cloud brocade cloak bestowed by the emperor in the cabinet." Go and take it out, and let the imperial dining room prepare some food and wine, the emperor has had a bumpy journey, he must be hungry..."

Tao Xin stood behind her, and smiled as she rolled up her black hair. The maids in the room also became busy with the smile on Shi Jieyu's face.

After the bath, the emperor was already sitting in the phoenix costume under the service of the servant girl, and Li Yan hung her head at the side of Concubine Feng, her eyes were clear.

"Back to the emperor..." Li Yan took a step forward, and stood respectfully at the same place after saluting, "Everything is fine in the palace, the empress dowagers of the two palaces just sent someone over, and the servants have already been sent back according to the order of the empress."

After the last setback, the empress dowagers of the two palaces did not dare to act rashly, Gu Yezu nodded, and Feng Feiyue insisted on calling the imperial doctor, and did not feel relieved until she was sure that the wound on his arm was all right.

After taking the medicine, there was only a slight itching pain. Concubine Feng saw that he hadn't had a good night's rest in the past few days, so after sitting for a while, she asked Li Yan to take care of him.

As soon as the emperor got up, there was a small noise outside, Feng Feiyue motioned for Li Yan to open the palace door, and stepped out first.

Outside, Yuqiao blocked Fenglian Palace, after a closer look, it turned out that Tao Xin was looking for it.

"Didn't you hear me? You can't go in."

"Sister Yuqiao, just let the slaves go in. The emperor is back, and I'm just here to say something." Tao Xin was still entangled, helplessly, the woman in front of her still refused to let go, her face full of indifference.

"What's so noisy?" Concubine Feng stepped down the long steps and came to the two of them gracefully. When Tao Xin saw her coming, her face was stained with hope, but her body was blocked by the jade bridge, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... ..."

Concubine Feng looked around, but there was no one else around, "Tao Xin, why are you here?"

"Return to your mother's words, servant girl heard that the emperor is returning to the palace, servant girl..." She was eager to express her intentions, but she couldn't help but stepped forward, looking inside through the hall.

"Who told you that the emperor is going back to the palace?" Feng Feiyue signaled Yuqiao to get out of the way, her voice became abrupt and dark, which really shocked Tao Xin in front of her.After the two returned to the palace, they didn't go anywhere, and the previous news was even sealed in Fengyu Palace, "When did the emperor take a step out of the palace's bedroom?"

She bit her lip, realizing that she had made a mistake in anxiety, and the queen was such a shrewd person. Tao was sweating anxiously, and simply kneeled down in front of Concubine Feng, "Your Majesty, you are a slave, a slave." Just now when I came out of Jingye Palace, I accidentally saw... Your Majesty said that the Emperor is in Fenglian Palace, Madam, let your servants go in and meet you..."

Just as he was begging for love, the emperor heard the movement, changed into a dragon robe, and came out exhausted.

"Aren't you Shi Jieyu's servant girl?"

"Your Majesty, your servant is exactly that. Shi Jieyu has been ill for a long time, and she doesn't think about eating and drinking these days. This body..." Concubine Feng looked at Tao Xin's anxious expression. This maid is very sincere to her master.

As soon as the emperor waved his hand, he immediately understood.

"Tonight, you rest first..." Gu Yezi said to Feng Feiyue who was beside her, "Originally, I really wanted to see her..."

His expression was full of helplessness that he had to face, and there was also a bit of unspeakable fear. In the cave that day, his doubts had not been let go.Now, it's time to face it.Concubine Feng Yue didn't say a word, she nodded her head lightly, and when she returned to the palace, she should be the one she couldn't let go of the most.

Can't fight for it... In the bottom of Gu Yezi's heart, there is such a place that he can never go into.

He didn't say anything clearly, and she didn't ask. After leaving behind a shadow, Gu Ye walked out.

Concubine Feng looked up, Tao Xin got up and followed behind him, blocking half of his back, but she was full of worry in her eyes.

"Your Majesty..." Li Yan walked out of the hall and called softly.

The concubine Feng read the pestle in the same place, and the capital was full of smoke and clouds. Here, it is still the palace, and he is still the emperor.

Life outside the palace, in that paradise, although he could not escape the hunt, it was not as peaceful as it is now, so tiring.The wind rolled up the fallen leaves, Li Yan and Yuqiao looked at each other, not daring to say a word, standing in the garden was extremely cold, Feng Concubine closed her front tightly, waved her hand and said, "Stop guarding, everyone go back and rest."

When turning around, the steps she stepped on were lonely, which is what women in the palace should get used to.

Shi Jieyu was looking forward to it, the incense in the incense burner was faint and inaudible.

Putting on the cloak, as the sound of footsteps outside approaches, a heart hangs even higher.

As soon as the emperor stepped in, he saw the woman standing up hastily, her small face was very happy, and her pale complexion gradually became rosy, "The concubine sees the emperor."

When we saw each other again, Gu Yezu suddenly felt a little awkward, he stepped forward and helped her up with both hands, "I'm not in good health, didn't I let you skip the salute a long time ago?"

"The concubine forgot when she saw the emperor coming." Shi Jieyu sat down beside him, unable to let go of her grasping hand.

"I've been busy these days, and I've stayed in Fengyi Palace to deal with court affairs, and I've neglected you." Gu Yezi said casually, without worrying too much.

Shi Jieyu's expression froze, and Tao Xin who was beside her couldn't help but keep her mouth shut when she saw this.She thought that the emperor would never hide anything from her, but now...

"Your Majesty, the state is busy, and the most important thing is your body." She smiled knowingly, and she would not ask him what he was hiding.Shi Jieyu got up and stood behind him, put her hands on her shoulders, and began to rub gently.She didn't know that Gu Ye was injured, although the kneading force was not strong, it still touched the wound.

He frowned and moaned softly.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?" Shi Jieyu hurriedly stopped, staring at his arms in a daze.

"It's okay, maybe it's because you've been busy these few days, and your arms are sore and numb." Gu Yezi took her hand and asked Shi Jieyu to sit down, "Did Doctor Mo come over to see it?"

"Back to the emperor, Dr. Mo will come here every now and then, and leave some medicine, but my mother's illness still hasn't shown any signs of improvement." Tao Xin saw that her complexion was dull and her little face lost its spirit, so she continued.

This disease is what worries him the most.

"Tao Xin..." Shi Jieyu gasped, seeming to blame, "Where is it your turn to intervene? Your Majesty, don't listen to her. Doctor Mo just came yesterday and said that my concubine's illness has improved. If you take medicine for a long time, it will gradually improve." Her illness is an old one, and it recurs all the year round, so how can it be said that it will be cured.

Hearing this, Tao Xin bowed her head silently and then remained silent, but the look of grievance on her face did not escape Gu Yezi's eyes.

Holding her catkin in one hand, I felt a little guilty in my heart, "You have a good rest, from now on, I will try my best to spare more time to visit Jingye Palace."

Shi Jieyu smiled like the wind, and covered his big palm with the other hand, "The concubine will wait for the emperor as usual."

Her obsession, her indomitability...

Indisputable, there were a few strands of irritability on Gu Yezi's brows, with a complicated expression on her face, Shi Jieyu observed her words, and said to Tao Xin who was beside her, "The emperor will sit down again, you go and make a pot of tea, so that you can brush off the emperor's today. uneasy."

Gu Ye rubbed the soreness between his brows with one hand, "You know what's on my mind?"

She smiled and shook her head, "The concubine has been with the emperor for so many days, although I don't know why the emperor is upset, but I also know that you have something on your mind."

Gu Ye's thin lips were pursed into a line, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, "Leaning on the ting..."

"Your majesty." Shi Jieyu stopped his words, "I don't want anything in this life, but I want to be with the emperor for the rest of my life. Whether it's love or righteousness, what I want is to be with you. The emperor's hard work Although the concubines cannot share half of the burden, they still hope, don't drive the concubines away, don't leave the concubines behind..."

Her tone became more urgent, and at the end, she was a little more pleading and humble.Gu Yezi thought of Feng Feiyue's desperate and mournful call in the cave, I lost you...

"Your Majesty, here comes the tea..." Tao Xin knocked down the door, and the hot tea in the teapot on the tray filled her sight, and the smoke curled up.
