Chapter 464 Daily Life in the Palace (82)



Wu Yunzhu, completely satisfied, carried a box full of pearls to the side hall to rest.

Kids are young and can't sit still; they tend to think one thing and do another.

It's fine to play with Hongli, but it's not acceptable to play with Hongli all the time.

Besides, Wuyunzhu doesn't have enough energy. This child is usually quite quiet. If she plays for too long, not only will she become listless, but her gentle temper will also worsen.

Unfortunately, as Wuyunzhu's biological father, Hongli had a strong emotional attachment to her.

They felt that Wu Yunzhu's lack of anger was a sign of gentleness, while her outbursts of anger were a sign of true character. Even Chen Yuwei, who wanted to try to correct some of Wu Yunzhu's bad habits, was forced to stop and give up.

Chen Yuwei: ...I'm speechless.

With someone dragging her down like this, what could Chen Yuwei say? She could only try to make Hongli happy and continue to treat him like royalty.

Anyway, if something really happens to Wuyunzhu later, Chen Yuwei can easily shift the blame to the Emperor.

Chen Yuwei spread her hands, clearly stating that she really hadn't interfered much in Wuyunzhu's education; it was all Hongli's fault.

"Wei'er, you've worked so hard all these years handling matters both inside and outside the palace."

Hongli held Chen Yuwei's slender wrist, patting her while expressing his feelings about her hardships.

Chen Yuwei had no idea what Hongli was up to when he suddenly brought this up.

She smiled and said that it was nothing hard work, it was all what she should do. "If we're talking about hard work, the Emperor is the one who has to deal with state affairs all day long."

Your Majesty, I am merely responsible for the daily affairs of the harem, and all my sisters are willing to cooperate.

"Your Majesty, I dare not claim credit; you flatter me."

Upon hearing Chen Yuwei's words, Hongli felt even more certain that his judgment of people was correct.

Look at this, this is the awareness of an Imperial Noble Consort. The Empress Dowager said that Wei'er was not suitable. If Wei'er is not suitable, does that mean that Consort Hui is suitable? In his opinion, Wei'er is the most suitable!

Hongli held his breath and subconsciously began to scrutinize Chen Yuwei's appearance and figure.

To be honest, she doesn't look like a concubine who has already given birth to several children. Her face is as beautiful as a flower and her figure is curvaceous. Tsk tsk, Hongli licked the corner of his mouth, his own image inexplicably becoming a bit lewd.

Chen Yuwei: ...?

Chen Yuwei didn't know what Hongli was thinking, but judging from the dim sky, it certainly wasn't anything serious.

She raised an eyebrow inwardly, then leaned closer to Hongli and giggled, "Your Majesty~"

Hongli put his arm around Chen Yuwei's shoulder, turned around and led her behind the screen. "I suddenly remembered that I have something to discuss with my beloved consort. My beloved consort, you..."

The sound gradually disappeared, replaced by another kind of soft, indistinct melody.

The two of them lingered together on and off for who knows how long.

As dusk approached, the two men emerged from the inner room and began to have food served.

Chen Yuwei picked up a handkerchief with one hand and wiped the corner of her mouth, giving Hongli a rather helpless and reproachful look.

It's all that person's fault; he really doesn't know what's important. If it weren't for the inconvenient timing, we wouldn't even have been able to have dinner.

"Your Majesty is truly fortunate that I do not need to go out, otherwise I would be too ashamed to face anyone."

There's no such person; when they go crazy, they don't care what others think.

Although she enjoyed the action, Chen Yuwei still had to save face.

Otherwise, if the servants in the palace gossip, how will Chen Yuwei manage the harem?

You know, some people love to read other people's expressions. If Chen Yuwei loses her authority, she will definitely be ridiculed.

Hongli smiled and reached out to help Chen Yuwei sit down at the octagonal table. He then turned around and picked up the chopsticks next to him to serve Chen Yuwei the food.

"Try this braised shark fin soup. I specially ordered the imperial kitchen to make it, using only the finest sea fish."

Hongli's playful and smiling appearance made it difficult for Chen Yuwei to keep a straight face.

Then, he put the shark fin that the other person picked up into his mouth and tasted it briefly.

Chen Yuwei nodded and began to turn around to serve food to Hongli.

The two are a long-married couple, and Chen Yuwei has a very good grasp of romance.

The key to getting along is a little bit of push and pull; too much will make Hongli feel uncomfortable, and too little will make him lose interest.

Hongli (Emperor Hongli) had a certain cheeky and irreverent personality.

Whether interacting with others or being alone, if you deliberately try to please them, they will find it annoying. It should be that subtle, ambiguous feeling of intimacy that Hongli will be captivated by and unable to extricate himself from.

In short, it's being a jerk!

After finishing their dinner together, Hongli and Chen Yuwei each took a warm bath.

Chen Yuwei has long hair, and it was still a little damp when she came back from the bathroom.

Seeing this, Hongli simply volunteered to wipe Chen Yuwei's hair.

Although the technique was still a bit clumsy, at least the intention was there.

Despite the pain of her scalp being constantly pulled, Chen Yuwei forced herself to wait until Hongli finished his work before she and he went to bed to rest.

"My beloved concubine"

"Your Majesty~"

Chen Yuwei reached out to stop the somewhat impatient Hongli, her eyes glancing at the curtain that had already fallen to the side, and quietly inquired about the situation of the several pregnant concubines in the harem.

After hearing Chen Yuwei's words, Hongli's expression turned somewhat angry.

With a snort, Hongli turned and lay down, complaining, losing all interest in talking to Chen Yuwei.

Listening to Hongli's incessant rant, Chen Yuwei could somewhat understand his anger.

It's no wonder Consort Ning was able to outmaneuver Consort Qing and Consort Lin; those two are simply a bit brainless.

The reason why Hongli punished Consort Qing and Consort Lin was because they did something stupid.

Not only did she drag Hongli straight to Jingyang Palace, but she also spoke ill of Consort Ning's child in front of Consort Ning.
