However, when the sky was getting dark, the sound of Wen pheasants calling loudly could be heard outside the palace.
Jiang Huaiyang was used to getting up at this point, and he woke up in a moment. He glanced at the little lady sleeping beside him. According to etiquette, he was supposed to send her back last night, but he allowed her to toss back and forth, and
This matter was not mentioned.
Half of her face was buried in the brocade quilt, and she had not changed at all from the habits she had seen at Shenghe Temple. However, their moods had changed.
The gauze curtain was lifted and fluttered down again.
Despite this, it was inevitable that the cold air would invade. Ruan Yuyi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she opened her eyes. Through the curtain, she saw the long figure with his back to her, with a maid serving him to dress him.
After she calmed down for a while and felt clearer, she got off the bed and said to the maid, "I'll come."
The maid bowed and stepped back.
She took the jade belt and looped it around his waist. The man who practiced martial arts had a thin waist, which was completely different from his gentle and gentle complexion, which was very deceptive. However, the unintentional touch also made the tips of her ears turn red.
Jiang Huaiyang lowered his eyes and stared at her black hair, his voice was cold and cold, not at all as gentle as last night, "I thought Lingling would forget that this is your business."
She paused while arranging his clothes with her fingertips, and replied, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, but I am used to being lazy. I will definitely pay attention to it in the future."
The two of them called each other affectionately, and the other distantly. But he didn't show any anger, and let her hang up the rings for him one by one.
Suddenly seeing the sachet embroidered with sweet-scented osmanthus in her hand, he felt refreshed in the morning.
Ruan Yuyi was also a little surprised. He really put this sachet made of cloth to good use. Thinking of his headache, he casually asked with concern, "Has your majesty been sleeping peacefully recently?"
She was also not sure whether the medicinal powder inside would be effective against the symptoms.
The little lady's fingers are slender and white, which is very pleasing to the eye, but it doesn't help, because the things inside are related to the blood of thousands of soldiers.
He hated himself for knowing the taste of her food. Because of this, he was always a little soft-hearted towards her, so he always hung the sachet on his body as a warning.
Although he always talked about tens of millions of soldiers, he also admitted that he was more interested in personal relationships. It was true that he pityed the tens of millions of soldiers, but he regretted the death of Deputy General Yuan even more.
He felt guilty, she was also at fault, and neither of them could escape this condemnation.
"It feels much better." He was haunted by her shadow, but now that she is around, it has really eased a lot. Speaking of which, he hasn't dreamed about it for a while.
She didn't notice the change in his tone and smiled lightly, "That's good." This showed that the medicine was indeed effective.
Once things are sorted out, it's almost time for morning court.
"Your Majesty, wait a moment." She suddenly saw some wrinkles at his collar, so she stopped him, put one hand on his shoulder, and used the other to straighten them, her movements very natural.
He paused as he was told, and a soft hand touched his neck like a dragonfly, but it aroused an undercurrent in his heart.
"Your collar is still a little untidy," her voice was as gentle as her soft pair of clothes, "It's fine now. You can go to court. Don't delay."
He clenched his hand, then loosened it, but finally couldn't hold it any longer and turned around. He took the person into his arms and covered him without any explanation.
Wen Zhi's knocking sound came from outside the hall, as if urging.
The shower-like kiss caught her off guard. Her eyes were blank for a moment, and she suddenly remembered something. She tried her best to refuse, and then she got some breathing space, "Your Majesty, you have to go."
She was not some enchanting concubine who bewitched the king's heart. She raised her eyes and met a pair of deep eyes.
He put his hands around her wrists and whispered, "Let him wait."
She was startled. She wanted to say something, but was choked back by sobs. She had to hold on to the lapel of his clothes to prevent him from weakening.
Because she had to go to court early, Jiang Huaiyang didn't delay for too long and let her go.
In half a day, the news that Ruan Cairen was staying in Yangxin Hall spread throughout the palace. Just as Jiang Huaiyang expected, some people were jealous of Ruan Cairen who was so prominent. At this time, she was being served.
After washing up, I walked back slowly.
When she returned to Luomeixuan, the gloomy sky seemed to be full of water, and it suddenly started to rain.
Perhaps it was because of the rainy day that the concubines in the nearby palace only sent gifts but no one came. She was enjoying herself, drinking tea and dancing without being disturbed.
At some point, the rain outside stopped a little, and a maid came to report that Concubine Shu had invited the sisters from all the palaces to come and chat.
After seeing off the people from Chonghua Palace, Ruan Yuyi took off a few hairpins in the mirror.
"What are you doing, little master?" Mu Ling asked suspiciously.
The young lady in the mirror is wearing a plain dress, but her face is beautiful. After the rain and dew, You Xin's face is even more scorching, and her eyes seem to be filled with moisture.
She said softly, "It won't be too conspicuous." Yesterday, everything was done with such great fanfare, and she didn't want to be that tree that stood out in the forest.
She did not wait too long. When she arrived, there was only one empty chair among the chairs arranged in the main hall of Chonghua Palace.
There are really not many concubines in the palace, only four or five of them in total. But everyone is decorated gorgeously, and the hall is decorated with red doors, beautiful windows, painted pillars and carved eaves.
One of the women in a green and gold-woven dress covered her mouth and smiled, "Look, didn't you wait for this? The talented man has a lot of face, so he asked his sisters to wait, fearing that they would forget about themselves if they accepted the favor.
Identity." Her lips were brightly painted, but her words were harsh.
Another older woman pretended to agree, "What did Sister An say? It's hard to find a new person, don't let Your Majesty scare him away."
An Jieyu, who was dressed in lake green, giggled and covered her mouth.
Concubine Shu, who was at the top, said coldly, "Okay, please stop saying a few words."
Concubine Shu is not the one with the highest status in the regulations, but there is no main wife in the palace for the time being, and the Queen Mother cannot hold power because she allowed the three emperors to change their uteruses. Therefore, the phoenix seal naturally falls to Concubine Shu for the time being.
in hand.
This concubine Shu had her back to the Rong Mansion, and the other concubines were also somewhat afraid of her, thinking that she was the most powerful one.
After hearing what she said, both of them also stopped talking, but they still smiled on their faces, as if they were watching the fun.
Ruan Yuyi knew that something was wrong, and bowed politely to the woman in gorgeous clothes at the top. Because her body was so sore, she staggered, "I forgive you, I have no intention of neglecting you."
Concubine Shu was fiddling with her armor safely, and the maid next to her asked on her behalf, "What do you mean, the talented person came here as soon as he heard the message?"
Her eyelashes trembled slightly, knowing that she could not escape the accusation, so she raised her voice slightly, "Of course."
Little did she know that it was not that she arrived late, but that Concubine Shu deliberately informed Luomei Xuan of late, making her the last to arrive. She gathered other concubines here, just to watch her jokes in the name of chatting.
Concubine Shu had the intention of beating her up, so how could she let this matter come to light? She said lightly, "It's too late, it's too late, why bother looking for excuses. Ruan Cairen, just go and kneel outside. A small punishment but a big admonishment. Without me."
