Early in the morning, magpies chirped on the branches outside, announcing good news.

Lu Chunyu, with a jade hairpin pinned to her bun, turned her head happily.

Errong walked in with his arms full of packed luggage and looked at her with a sad face.

"My lady, the prince has gone too far. He has not even considered the relationship between husband and wife and actually sent you away."

She angrily packed up Lu Chunyu's dressing box, stood up and looked around the empty house.

Lu Chunyu listened patiently to the endless complaints in her ears.

"They say it's nice to others, like recuperating from illness. But no matter how serious the illness is, the government can't afford to take care of it. They have to travel a long way to the farm outside the city to recuperate."

Lu Chunyu was not as disgusted as Errong. She covered her face with a handkerchief thoughtfully.

Until the injury on her face healed, she was destined not to appear in the circle of wealthy ladies in the capital.

It’s better to go to Zhuangzi to relax instead of staying in the house all day.

"How about I go find the master? The prince is so disrespectful. I'll let the master report him."

But don't, stop the excited maid movie.

After packing the luggage for the three carriages, they arrived at the main gate of the palace. Lu Chunyu held Errong's hand, lifted the curtain, and looked inside.

Suddenly, footsteps followed closely behind me.

Lu Chunyu turned back.

"Greetings...Mistress."

Cuisheng came in a hurry, breathless, carrying a bag on her shoulder and bowing to greet everyone, and stood in front of the gate in a pretty manner.

He raised his eyelashes slightly, glanced at his mistress in the carriage, and quickly passed by the edge of her clothes.

Unable to bear it, she lowered her head in shame, her hands twisting the wrapping cloth in front of her body.

Logically, concubines would love for the wife to be out and the boss not to be at home, so that they can live comfortably.

Lu Chunyu couldn't figure out what the concubine named Cuisheng was thinking, so she asked tentatively.

Cuisheng was waiting for her mistress to ask her questions, and she hurriedly expressed her idea of ​​following Lu Chunyu to the manor.

"As a maidservant in the palace, I should stay by my mistress's side and obey her orders."

As she was about to finish her words, Cuisheng ignored everyone else and quickly integrated herself into the role of her master's confidant.

He pushed away Errong who was blocking the mistress, reached out to support Lu Chunyu, and lifted the curtain with one hand.

Errong watched the follower following the young lady and lowered the car curtain in front of her.

The autumn wind was blowing, sweeping up the withered and yellow leaves on the ground, and Errong was filled with a sense of crisis.

Who among my family members understands?

——————

Yonghe Palace.

"The Queen's kitchen has prepared the ginseng soup and will bring it over soon. Please take a look..."

"Where is His Majesty?"

The crime of spying on the emperor can be serious or minor, the key lies in who is responsible.

Concubine Xi was in great favor, and the eunuchs serving in the palace were willing to do good things for her.

Xianglan: "Eunuch Li replied that His Majesty had left the court and went to the Imperial Study."

The Imperial Study is located at the north end of Ningshou Palace. Inside the study are many precious and unique books left over from various dynasties.

When Emperor Chengming was not handling official duties, he liked to stay in the quiet study and read books.

This emperor was very fond of books, and his favorite was Records of the Grand Historian.

The complete book of Records of the Grand Historian consists of twelve chapters, one hundred and thirty chapters, and more than five hundred and twenty-six thousand five hundred characters.

Emperor Chengming read the entire book carefully, no less than five times, and the pages were curled and prickly.

When Concubine Xi arrived, the eunuch at the door hurriedly bowed and greeted her.

Xianglan supported a bright and beautiful woman who was dressed in gorgeous palace dress.

The man had raised, energetic eyebrows, and dignified eyes and features, which hinted at a sharp temperament and wildness.

But the corners of her lips were plump, which neutralized the sharpness of her eyebrows and eyes, transforming them into a charming and vibrant charm.

Moving forward slowly, the concubine stopped at the palace gate and waited quietly for the eunuch from the inner gate to report.

The eunuch chief Su Ming came out to greet him personally.

"Eunuch Su, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you these days?"

Eunuch Su: "Everything is fine with our family. Thank you for your concern, Concubine Xi."

Su Ming, who was leading the way, walked at a steady pace. He could afford Concubine Xi's courtesy.

As the trusted eunuch of Emperor Chengming, all the noble masters in the palace treated him politely.

Even though Concubine Xi was the head of a palace and the most favored concubine in the eyes of outsiders, she did not dare to be negligent towards the eunuch chief, Eunuch Su.

Lu Chunxi was an extremely shrewd person. When she entered the palace as a noble lady, she began to intentionally or unintentionally win over the eunuchs who were close to Emperor Chengming.

The purpose of bribery and money is nothing more than to win the favor of Emperor Chengming and cater to his preferences. Unfortunately...

Rubbing her fingertips, staring at the slippery old eunuch in front of her, Concubine Xi's eyes, with the corners of her lips raised, had no smile at all, and were dark and gloomy.

The old eunuch was very unhappy because he didn't appreciate the favor.

The two chatted for a while, walking quickly as they passed through the rows of bookcases in the outer room and stepped over the threshold of the inner door.

The chief eunuch Su Ming returned to his master's side and moved out of sight.

Behind him, Lu Chunxi raised her eyes, and her bright and ambitious eyes finally got what they wanted.

A tall and strong man sits behind a long desk with only his upper body exposed, his long shoulders spread out, and his broad chest hidden by a long robe.

The surge of male hormones swept through the rather large inner room. Lu Chunxi, who lowered her neck to avoid facing Emperor Chengming, blushed.

Imagining His Majesty's usual powerful physique, walking like a dragon and a tiger, her fingers curled up excitedly. She rubbed the handkerchief in her palm to calm herself for a while before bowing.

"Your Highness, I greet you."

Hearing the noise, he shifted his attention from the book to the hall.

A majestic and calm male voice sounded as he passed by the favored concubine who was kneeling to pay her respects.

"Get up."

Concubine Xi, who was kneeling to salute, listened to the instructions in her ear and slowly stood up.

Without waiting for the emperor to ask, Lu Chunxi stood up, took the ginseng soup from the attendant beside her, and moved lightly with lotus steps.

"Your Majesty works hard day and night for state affairs. As a concubine, I am powerless to help you solve your problems."

"I heard from the Imperial Hospital's doctor that ginseng soup has the effect of calming the mind, strengthening the spleen, and strengthening the body. I personally went to the kitchen and stewed the soup."
