Chapter 173

The shade of trees in Yuanmingyuan is cool, even in the scorching summer, you will not feel hot and greasy.In a blink of an eye, Yingyun spent July in the garden, and August was just around the corner, and she had already entered September to give clothes.

Sheng Jia has no plans to return to Luan, and the concubines also like to be in the garden, which is not as rigid and boring as the Forbidden City.

Today, after the concubines paid their respects, Yingyun glanced at the vacant seat and said to Anai, "Do you know what kind of disease Concubine Shu has, and I haven't seen her come to pay her respects for many days?"

Anai casually tidied up the tea set, and said, "It's just right that I'm not coming, so I don't need to hear some bitter and jealous words, what are you still thinking about, my lady?"

But Yingyun said: "In the past, Concubine Shu was the most active in paying her respects, so why would she not come for so many days to spoil my appetite."

Anai thought about it carefully, and she really felt suspicious, so she stopped what she was doing, and said: "Your Majesty, it's a bit strange for you to say that, if you say you're sick, you don't always announce the imperial doctor to come in, why don't you close the door What a shameful act you have done."

Yingyun said: "Send someone to investigate quietly."

Anais responded, and immediately arranged for people to go.

After noon, the person sent by Anai returned the message, and she couldn't wait to go back to Yingyun, saying: "Your Majesty, there is news from Concubine Shu."

"How to say?"

Anai leaned over to her ear, and replied in a low voice: "It is said that Nalan Yonglu, the servant of the household department, presented a woman to the palace, and now she is being trained by Empress Concubine Shu, and she is going to give it to the emperor."

Ying Yun asked suspiciously: "The foreign minister gave the emperor a beautiful woman? Is there no mistake in this matter?"

Anai said: "This matter is not without precedent. In the third year of Qianlong, Jiangsu Zhizao Haibao presented two women, and they came to Beijing with the opera troupe. It is the current Empress Yipin and her sister Baichang who are here. It is reasonable for Concubine Shu to ask her mother's family to find someone for the emperor, but I don't know the origin of this person, so I got on Concubine Shu's way."

Yingyun secretly sighed, alas, the emperor is just a piece of delicious Tang monk meat, which makes flies and mosquitoes want to bite, maybe it will make them ascend to heaven.

Anai said again: "Your Majesty, although the emperor treats you wholeheartedly now, but he can't stand them pushing people in every now and then. Do you want to be on guard against them?"

"How can we prevent it?" Ying Yun curled her lips and said, "If you really want to prevent it, you can only tie a chain on the emperor and put him in a cage, so that you can sit back and relax."

Put on a chain?Still locked in a cage?Anai shook her head again and again, the empress is a beast if she is the emperor?If the emperor heard this, he would be so angry that he would blow his beard and stare.

Yingyun thought about it, and then asked: "When is Concubine Shu going to present it to the emperor?"

Anai said: "It's not clear, but I heard that Concubine Shu often inquires about the emperor's movements, and has been going to the Changchun Immortal Hall frequently in the past few days, probably because she wants to send someone in quietly, maybe not."

Yingyun smiled lightly, and said: "Let people keep an eye on Concubine Shu. If there is any movement, report it immediately. I want to see what kind of woman needs her to be so mysterious."

Anai pouted and said, "Madam, you are still laughing, why don't you go directly to Concubine Shu and drive people away."

"What are you driving away for?" Yingyun said full of interest: "Let her offer it up. I also want to take this opportunity to see if our emperor can really sit still."

Anais sighed in puzzlement, her empress wanted to see a good show again.
