Concubine, she is so charming

Chapter 340

"Isn't it hot in July? It's morning again. The emperor doesn't hold an umbrella when he comes here. It's already sunburnt."

As Ye Yun said, she took out her handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Yuan Jiu, who was following behind, hurriedly lowered her head, "It's the negligence of the slave, thinking that there are many shade trees in the garden, so I didn't bring an umbrella."

"Okay, don't blame him, I'm a man, and it's not raining, so why go out and cover yourself with an umbrella?" Ning Chen said.

After entering the room and sitting down, seeing a cup of tea on the table, he immediately picked it up and drank it.

"emperor."

Before Ye Yun could stop him, a cup of tea poured into his stomach.

"What's wrong?" Ning Chen put down his teacup and asked in confusion.

Looking at the empty cup, Ye Yun was speechless.

"That's Chen Qie's cup, and Chen Qie has already taken a sip."

After hearing this, Ning Chen lowered his head to look at the cup in his hand, and indeed there was a faint mark of lip blush on the other side.

It's just that he didn't dislike it. Instead, he filled it up again as if nothing had happened, and took a sip.

"It's okay, I drink very well."

Well, since Jin Zhuer doesn't dislike it, that's fine.

Ning Chen put down his teacup and opened his palm to her, Ye Yun raised his eyebrows slightly, and put his hand on it.

So he was led to sit down.

"I have one more thing to tell you today."

"What's the matter?"

"The empress came to tell me yesterday that she has been unwell for the past two days, and the eldest prince has also contracted a slight cold and needs to be taken care of. It happens that the Mid-Autumn Festival is less than a month away, and the banquet needs to be arranged, and the empress has to be busy with harem affairs. I can’t get away a lot, so I came to discuss with me, Concubine Shu and Concubine De will take care of some harem affairs for her, and you and Hui Zhaorong will help with the arrangements for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.”

"No."

Ye Yun refused decisively when he heard this.

Her quick answer stunned Ning Chen for a moment.

So Ye Yun added, "The concubine used to be lazy when she was in her boudoir, and she didn't learn the housekeeper's things well. Now that she has been in the palace for so many years, she has forgotten all about it. The royal family will come to the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet. If something goes wrong, wouldn't it be embarrassing to the emperor, and the concubines would not dare to take on this important task."

The queen suddenly brought her along to manage things, and she always felt uneasy.

What's more, she didn't want to bother with it, how tired she was.

Wouldn't it be nice to be a rice bug?

But if it was in the past, Ning Chen would have agreed to her, but now Ning Chen knew that she was just trying to avoid laziness on purpose, and also had other thoughts, so he said in a low voice.

"I know your intelligence, and I also know that you just don't want to bother, but now that you have given birth to Jing'er, you will have a higher status in the future, so you can't just hide like this. There will always be times when you have to bear it."

Moreover, he didn't want others to say that Ye Yun could only flirt with others and had no other skills.
He hopes that the woman he loves is worthy of his favor, is wise and powerful, and can be a good wife.

Ye Yun raised her head to meet Ning Chen's eyes.

At this moment, even if the other party didn't say what was behind it, she understood everything.

Indeed, in order to have a more stable position in the harem, it is necessary not only to have the emperor's favor, but also to be admired by the hearts of the people.

You can't just be a vase all your life.

What's more, if you want to go to a high place, it is impossible not to be contaminated with power, especially since she gave birth to a son.

If Jing'er wants that position in the future, it is impossible for her not to help.

After thinking for a moment, he finally nodded.

However, he said, "The courtiers and concubines are the directors in the end, they are mostly assisting, and dare not make decisions. Everything should be decided by the empress."

Defenses can not do without.

Ning Chen nodded, "It's all small things, you can do as you see fit. By the way, I still have something for you."

After finishing speaking, he beckoned to Yuan Jiu.

The latter took a wooden box from the young eunuch following him.

Ye Yun was curious, "What is this?"

"Open it yourself and have a look. It's something from the Western Regions. I thought your date would like it." Ning Chen's lips twitched slightly.

Yuan Jiu handed the box forward, and Ye Yun opened it.

There are two palm-sized bottles neatly placed inside.

A hollowed out pumpkin-shaped shell was made of gold and silver, inlaid with fine gemstones and agates of various colors, and the bottle in the middle was made of white jade. The outer wall was lightly carved with complicated patterns, and the end was exquisite.

Just by looking at this bottle, you can tell that it is worth a lot.

Ye Yun first took out the bottle with the golden shell, opened the cork, and smelled a fragrance.

Rich and lingering but not too sweet, like a seductive and seductive flower.

Looking inside, it turned out to be liquid.

Is it perfume?
I don't think it should be, the current technology is not easy to refine this.

Seeing that she was interested, Ning Chen said, "This person from the Western Regions is called Xianglu, and it is only used by the royal women of the Western Regions. It is very rare. There are five bottles in the tribute this time. I picked two bottles for you, and the rest will be given to the Queen Mother." Send one bottle, and the queen has two bottles."

After hearing this, Ye Yun picked up another bottle and smelled it. It was fresh and elegant, just the opposite of the first bottle.

"This is a rare item. We in Nanqi only have spice powder and incense, but it is not as easy to use as this."

Although the taste is not as layered as the later generations, and the persistence is not long enough, but it is very good if it can be made.

So Ye Yun immediately poured out a little and rubbed it on his wrists and neck.

Seeing how proficient she was in using it, Ning Chen was surprised.

"Have you used this before?"

"No, I just heard how to use it." Ye Yun blinked, "Is the concubine using it wrong, the emperor is not allowed to laugh."

"I don't know, Qingqing can use it however she wants."

As he spoke, he moved closer to her and sniffed.

"It's really more fragrant than incense powder."

Ye Yun glanced at him arrogantly, and said deliberately, "Could it be that the emperor arranged work for the concubine, so he brought good things to coax the concubine."

This means that she was asked to help organize the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet just now.

Seeing her small appearance, Ning Chen narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly.

Stretching out his hand and tugging, he pulled the person closer to his arms, "You can't use things outside of your body to coax people, I have to do it myself."

Ye Yun blushed even if she teased her so deliberately.

Shy and angrily pushed the man away, and cast a glance, "The emperor is not in good shape, the concubine went to look at Jinger, and stopped talking to the emperor."

Seeing her get up, Ning Chen didn't say anything further.

He just followed behind with a faint smile to see the child.

Regardless of other things, this trip has confirmed Ye Yun's participation in the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.

Ning Chen is already planning. If the Mid-Autumn Festival is well organized, Ye Yun will also be asked to assist in the Double Ninth Ceremony.

The woman he likes is willing to walk up step by step.

Although she had no intention of letting Zhonggong change hands, she always wanted to let her have the most and the best within the allowed range.
