In Fengxiang Palace, Yun Xiyao was supported by two palace ladies and moved in step by step.
Her face looked haggard, and the thick white powder could not hide the dark circles under her eyes. It was easy for everyone to see that she had not slept all night.
Yun Jingchu, wearing a red phoenix robe, strode in, and everyone quickly saluted.
After these three days, they have completely determined that they must be careful with the queen and not make any mistakes. Moreover, they must do what the queen says and do not use any excuses, even if the reasons are very legitimate.
Yun Jingchu watched Yun Xiyao stand firm with a sullen face, and slowly raised the corners of her lips, "Everyone, please get up and sit down."
"Thank you, empress." Only after Yun Jingchu took his seat did everyone dare to sit down.
"Still the old rules, if you have any questions, ask questions. If there are no questions, we can just chat." Yun Jingchu said with Dan Dan, the expression on his face looked very casual.
However, no one dared to be casual at all.
Still, no one had anything serious to ask for advice, so Concubine Dong Xian spoke first and said with a smile: "Let my sister start first and tell a joke to the empress for fun..."
After Concubine Dong Xian finished speaking, it was Yun Xiyao's turn. Yun Xiyao learned the lesson this time and forced herself to smile happily. In a hoarse voice, she told an interesting story about her slave.
Seeing Yun Jingchu smiling and nodding, Yun Xiyao's heart was relieved, and she was so happy that she almost shed tears.
Next, everyone gave their best performance. Yun Jingchu also kept smiling and listening, and the concubines were relieved one by one after finishing the story.
Finally, after the last concubine finished speaking, Yun Jingchu said, "Today, please accompany me to the imperial garden for a walk. At noon, you can stay and have dinner with me."
How dare you say no?
So, Yun Jingchu led a group of people out in a mighty manner. Yun Xiyao wanted to say that her legs hurt and wanted to go back to rest, but after thinking about it, she still didn't dare to say it.
So, Yun Xiyao followed Yun Jingchu, dragging her two legs that were so sore that they might break at any time, to the imperial garden. Although she was supported by two palace ladies, she did not dare to relax too much.
Moreover, her speed had to match that of Yun Jingchu. If Yun Jingchu was fast, she had to be fast. If Yun Jingchu was slow, she had to be slow. She didn't dare to slack off at all.
After Yun Jingchu walked around with the concubines for half an hour, he stopped and patted his waist. Just when Yun Xiyao thought she would let everyone stop and take a rest, Yun Jingchu unexpectedly turned around and said to everyone
: "I'm a little tired. Let's go back. It's almost time for lunch."
Yun Xiyao suddenly wanted to faint.
It took another half an hour for Yun Xiyao's torture to end.
Soon, the meals from the royal study room were delivered.
Everyone looked at Yun Jingchu in surprise when they saw a strange red dish that was found in many dishes.
"This is a seasoning that I discovered not long ago. It was brought from the Western Regions. It's called chili pepper. It's very delicious. You should try it too." Yun Jingchu said, taking the lead in picking up the chopsticks and reaching for the dishes in front of him.
.
Everyone quickly followed suit. As soon as they took the first bite, they were so spicy that they breathed out. However, after finishing the first bite, they felt the taste and wanted to take the second bite.
However, only Yun Xiyao has been forced to kneel and stand in the past few days and talk non-stop. Moreover, she has not eaten on time, and she has no time to drink water. Her body is suffering from weak fire, her mouth is full of sores, and her throat is sore.
It is inflamed and bleeding, and it hurts so much that I want to cry whenever I touch these hot things.
