Lu Yiyi looked at the palace maid with sharp eyes. "Which palace are you from?"
The maid only realized at this moment that the person was not wearing the clothes of a maid, and the child following her could only be the child of an official. But she looked at the starling flying in the distance and straightened her back. "I am from the Cining Palace."
Lu Yiyi's eyes were full of disdain. "How can the people from the Cining Palace be so rude and shout in the palace?"
The maid didn't expect that the name of Cining Palace was useless. "Your servant..."
"Who is shouting outside?" Then the door of the imperial study opened and Emperor Yuan Ming walked out.
"Your Highness."
When Emperor Yuanming saw the people outside the door, a look of surprise flashed across his face, but when he saw the palace maids on the other side, he frowned. "No need to be polite, Luoguo, why are you here if you are not serving your mistress in the Cining Palace?"
The little maid named Luoguo said aggrievedly, "Your Majesty, I just found that Ting'er, the girl you gave to my mistress a few days ago, ran away. I came out to look for her, but when I found her, I found that her hair was all bald, especially the tuft of yellow hair on her head was gone."
"Who is so bold?" An unhappy look flashed across Emperor Yuan Ming's face.
Shang Yangyang raised her little hand. "It's me~"
"Ah?" Emperor Yuan Ming's anger dissipated in an instant. He walked to Shang Yangyang and squatted down: "Why did Yangyang pull out Ting'er's hair?"
Shang Yangyang immediately looked at Emperor Yuan Ming with grievance. "It scolded me."
"Scold you?"
Shang Yangyang nodded vigorously.
This matter started when Shang Yangyang and several other little ones entered the palace. They heard Eunuch Li say that there were ministers discussing state affairs with Emperor Yuan Ming in the Imperial Study, so they ran to the Imperial Garden to play.
When they arrived at the Imperial Garden, Shang Yangyang suggested playing hide-and-seek. Just as Shang Yangyang hid, he saw a starling with a tuft of yellow hair on its head flying to the tree where Shang Yangyang was hiding.
Shang Yangyang didn't do anything when she saw a bird flying towards her. She even waved to the bird with a smile, but she didn't expect the bird to start swearing at her.
Myna: "Stupid, so stupid, someone take him down and chop him up."
"Cut your finger."
"Big Stupid*"
Shang Yangyang didn't expect that he would be scolded by a starling. He immediately became angry, and the scene of catching birds in the imperial garden just now happened.
When Emperor Yuan Ming heard Shang Yangyang's grievances, he glared at Luo Guo and asked, "Is this how you teach my son to talk?"
Luo Guo knelt on the ground. "Your Majesty, I didn't do that. I am wronged."
"Idiot, idiot." I heard the starling flying in the distance shouting.
Emperor Yuan Ming: "Someone, shoot the bird on the spot. This palace maid is disrespectful to the princess and the county lady. Take her away and give her thirty lashes."
"Yes." The Royal Guards took the order and stepped forward.
When Luo Guo was being taken away, she was still shouting, "I am innocent~"
[What an injustice! Why do all those who were dragged down cry out for injustice? 】
Emperor Yuan Ming heard Shang Yangyang's thoughts and rubbed her head. "Are you relieved now, Yangyang?"
Shang Yangyang nodded.
"That's good." Emperor Yuan Ming turned around and looked at Eunuch Li. "Li Defu, go pick a smart palace maid for Ling'er and send her over."
"Yes." Eunuch Li took the order and left.
The eldest princess and several others followed Emperor Yuan Ming into the imperial study.
Lu Yiyi asked the question in her mind: "Your Majesty, isn't the Cining Palace the residence of the Empress Dowager? How come there is another concubine?"
Emperor Yuanming couldn't help but raise his lips when he thought of this. "The newly appointed Yu Changzai a few days ago was once a maidservant beside the Empress Dowager. She was reluctant to leave the Empress Dowager, so I allowed her to continue living in the Cining Palace."
Lu Yiyi's face was full of disbelief. This was the first time she met the emperor. He made an exception for women other than the queen, and this woman was the empress dowager's person.
Lu Yiyi was about to express her doubt when Shang Yangyang's little hand suddenly reached out and interrupted Lu Yiyi.
[It was a close call. The princess aunt almost angered the emperor uncle. ]
When Emperor Yuan Ming heard this, he was a little puzzled, but he did not ask any more questions and directly changed the subject. "What is the matter with the imperial sister coming to the palace?"
When Lu Yiyi thought of this, she smiled and said with a longing look on her face: "Your Majesty, I will go find him."
Emperor Yuan Ming was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Lu Yiyi's expression and asked, "Zhou Hui?"
"Um."
"What happens after the royal sister finds him?"
"That depends on him. If he is still willing to marry me, then I will marry him. If not, then I will return to Beijing and die in the princess's mansion."
"If he dares, you, my sister, have already gone to find him. If he dares not agree, I will send someone to bring him back for you to marry."
Lu Yiyi shook her head: "I owed him that year, and he suffered so much because of me."
Emperor Yuanming thought back to those years and nodded. "Indeed, he suffered a lot in those years. My sister hopes you can find happiness."
Lu Yiyi: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I hope you will live up to your sincerity."
"Ah?" Emperor Yuan Ming frowned in thought, a look of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
Emperor Yuan Ming was about to speak when he was interrupted by Shang Yangyang.
Shang Yangyang was holding Lu Yiyi's hand tightly. "Princess Aunt, please come back soon. Yangyang will miss you."
"Okay." Lu Yiyi rubbed Shang Yangyang's head lovingly.
"Yangyang, Aunt Princess is leaving today."
"Okay." Shang Yangyang thought for a moment, then she took out a brocade box from her bosom and handed it to Lu Yiyi. "Life-saving pill."
Lu Yiyi took the brocade box and rubbed Shang Yangyang's head again. "Thank you, Yangyang."
After paying her respects to Emperor Yuan Ming, Lu Yiyi left the palace.
After Lu Yiyi left, Emperor Yuan Ming asked, "Yangyang, why did you think of entering the palace today?"
Shang Yangyang said with a smile: "I miss Uncle Emperor. How about we stay in the palace and accompany Uncle Emperor today?"
"Okay." Upon hearing this, Emperor Yuan Ming couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
The three little guys surrounded Emperor Yuan Ming and told him about the new and interesting things they had discovered in the past few days.
When Shang Yangyang and the others were talking happily, Eunuch Li came in and reported: "Your Majesty, Yu Changzai is outside asking to see you."
Emperor Yuan Ming immediately looked outside with a smile on his face, and Shang Yangyang was also very tactful. She pointed to the room inside and said, "Uncle Emperor, you are busy. We will go in and play by ourselves."
"Okay, Uncle Emperor will be with you guys in a while."
"Yeah." Shang Yangyang nodded obediently and took Shang Wanyue, Jiang Peixuan and the other two into the room.
Then a woman with tears in her eyes walked into the imperial study with a wronged look on her face.
Emperor Yuanming saw the woman like this and he stepped forward with heartache. "What happened to Ling'er?"
Yu Linger knelt directly in the middle of the imperial study. She looked up at Emperor Yuan Ming pitifully. "Your Majesty, it was my fault for not disciplining her properly, which caused Luo Guo to offend the eldest princess and the young princess." After she finished speaking, the tears that were about to fall from Yu Linger's eyes finally fell.
