Chapter 26 If I had known he was so handsome, I wouldn't have written him dead.

Xue Qingyao met her inquiring eyes and replied, "Actually, when I was chatting with the emperor yesterday to relieve his boredom, I mentioned you to him. I thought you were very considerate and would be able to take good care of the emperor if you were to serve him. But Sister Xue refuted me on the spot, saying that she knew you outside the palace and that you were clumsy and could not do the job of serving others."

"Xue Youli is a despicable, shameless, sinister and vicious villain!"

Meng Yishu gnashed her teeth in anger, "I just had a few words with her last time. How could she take revenge on me and slander me in front of the emperor?"

Xue Qingyao looked at her angry expression and patted the back of her hand soothingly, "Don't be angry, sister. There is a long way to go. If there is another chance in the future, I will definitely help you."

Later?

Meng Yishu's eyes suddenly tightened, "Sister, are you not going to the Changsheng Palace today?"

Last night, the emperor kept Xue Qingyao in the Changsheng Palace. She thought Xue Qingyao would go to the emperor's bedchamber today, so she came in a hurry to give her gifts and bribe her.

"When I came back, Concubine Rong and Concubine Li had both gone there. I think they will take care of the emperor today. The doctors in the Imperial Hospital are very skilled, and the emperor is now in great shape."

Yes, the emperor is young and strong. How many days can a minor cold keep him bedridden?

Concubine Rong and Concubine Li are the apple of the emperor's eye. With them around, how could she, a seventh-rank talent, have the chance to show up in front of the emperor?

After all, it was all Xue Youli's fault for ruining her good fortune!

Otherwise, since Xue Qingyao mentioned her in front of the emperor yesterday, she should be the one going to Changsheng Palace to serve the sick today!

"Then when will the emperor summon me to his bed?"

Xue Qingyao sighed, "Sister Xue is the first one among our group of newcomers to sleep with the emperor. Her words carry more weight than mine in front of the emperor. As long as she doesn't get along with us, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to survive."

Meng Yishu looked at the pile of goodies in Xue Qingyao's room that were given by the emperor, and felt sour in her heart, "Sister Xue, you have received so many rewards, you have made it through."

Unlike her, even if she stood in front of the emperor, he wouldn't be able to call out her name.

"Sister, my reward is just because it looks good. I heard that the emperor gave Sister Xue several pieces of Shujin yesterday, including a white one. I dare not imagine how beautiful it would look when made into clothes. I am so jealous!"

"Sister, you said that the emperor appreciated Xue Youli's white Shu brocade yesterday?"

"Not only white, but also many other colors, which makes people envious."

Coincidentally, Meng Yishu also had white brocade in her hand. Brocade was precious, and the one in her hand was given by her mother and was only enough to make two handkerchiefs.

But it is enough!

After her hint, Meng Yishu suddenly had a brilliant idea.

She told Xue Qingyao about her plan, but was opposed. "Sister, you can't do this. If you mess it up, you'll be dead! Unless..."

"Unless what?"

Xue Qingyao leaned close to Meng Yishu's ear and whispered, "Unless this and this, and then that and that..."

Meng Yishu listened, her eyes brightening...

She sat with Xue Qingyao for a while, and before leaving, Xue Qingyao returned the night pearl to her intact.

When leaving Minghua Palace, Shen Ruolan's personal maid Yuzhu blocked Meng Yishu's way, "Mr. Meng, my queen would like to invite you for a cup of tea."

A hundred miles away from the capital city is Jinghua Temple.

Chu Xinyue was chewing on a cucumber she had just picked from the ground while squatting by the pond, staring at a few koi in the water. She had already thought of thirty-eight ways to cook koi.

Garlic fish fillet, lemon fish, sour soup fish, boiled fish, pan-fried fish, sweet and sour fish, pickled fish, chopped pepper fish, spicy fish...

When other people transmigrated into books, they either ended up in the hero's bed or in his bathtub, but she transmigrated directly into a temple!

I get up before dawn every day, recite scriptures in the morning and meditate in the evening to gain enlightenment.

Although she had always wanted to meditate with her best friend, three days of meditation was fine, but three months was really not possible!

She eats vegetarian food every day, with vegetables, radishes and tofu every meal, and her mouth is empty!

no!

She can't 'wait to die hungry'!

She has to go to the back mountain to see if she can get some game to eat!

So, Chu Xinyue took advantage of the time when Queen Mother Yin was discussing Buddhism with the abbot, left Erxi behind, and slipped into the back mountain alone.

These days, she used taking a walk as an excuse to survey the back mountain, and only dared to go into the mountain alone after making sure that there were no poisonous snakes or ferocious beasts nearby.

Chu Xinyue walked around the back mountain, but she didn't see any pheasants or rabbits, not even a sparrow.

Just when Chu Xinyue was about to return empty-handed, she spotted a bird's nest on the big tree next to her.

If there is no game, it would be nice to have a few bird eggs to satisfy your hunger.

Chu Xinyue did what she said, rolled up her sleeves, and climbed up the tree nimbly.

She touched the nest and found it was empty.

Chu Xinyue was extremely disappointed. Just as she was about to climb down from the tree, her clothes got caught on the branches.

Then, she heard a buzzing sound in her ears.

Chu Xinyue glanced at it and the big wasp's nest above her head was reflected in her pupils.

Oh my goodness! Whose author could be so unlucky as to travel through a book?

Not only did he not catch any game, he was also hung on a tree with a wasp's nest!

She didn't dare to move at all, for fear of being stung by wasps!

Just when Chu Xinyue was calling out to heaven and earth for help but no one responded, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a slender figure walking towards her.

Chu Xinyue's eyes lit up, and she shouted in a low voice, "Brother! Brother! Help me!"

Under the tree, Murong Nan heard the noise and looked up to see Chu Xinyue standing stiffly on a branch of the tree trunk in a particularly funny posture.

They usually disliked each other, but they didn't expect that someone as proud as Chu Xinyue would be so proud as to call him "brother".

Murong Nan pointed at his nose and pretended to be stupid. "You? Call me?"

Chu Xinyue didn't know him and was afraid that he would not save her, so she quickly introduced herself, "Brother, I am Princess Qinghe. If you save me, I will give you anything you want!"

She was afraid of disturbing the wasps, so she spoke softly, and Murong Nan didn't hear clearly what she mumbled.

But I could hear the word "young brother" clearly.

Murong Nan's eyes flashed with surprise. After thinking for a while, he walked a few steps closer to the tree, raised his head and teased her deliberately, "Hey! It turns out to be Princess Qinghe. What are you doing standing on the tree?"

Chu Xinyue listened to his loud voice and hurriedly reminded him, "Brother, don't scare the wasps out! Help me!"

"How insincere is it to call him little brother? Why don't you call him fifth brother a few times?"

The boy under the tree spoke in a joking and teasing tone. Could he be an acquaintance?

Chu Xinyue thought about this and lowered her head to carefully look at the young man under the tree.

The other person looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old, with sharp eyebrows, bright eyes and handsome features.

He was wearing a sky blue brocade robe embroidered with python patterns, a white jade belt around his waist, and holding a folding fan, looking like a romantic and suave nobleman.

He could freely enter the back mountain of the royal temple, and he was wearing a robe with a python pattern that only a prince could wear. In addition, he called himself "Fifth Brother", so Chu Xinyue immediately guessed that he was the Fifth Prince she had written about.

He and the short-lived emperor Murong Che were both sons of Empress Dowager Yin, but because the male protagonist Murong Ye once saved his life, he is closer to the male protagonist.

Unfortunately, he died in the end to protect the male protagonist.

Harmful!

If I had known that the fifth prince was so handsome, I would not have written him to death!
