Chapter 1149 If you are fond of me, then breathe 3
The girl's gaze suddenly hardened. She took out a piece of silver from her sleeve and secretly handed it to Eunuch Ban. "After we've rested inside, please go in and inform the Emperor that I will leave regardless of whether he accepts this meal or not."
The old man secretly accepted the money. "Alright, when we have some free time inside, I'll go in and inform Miss Lin."
Fortunately, it didn't take long.
A quarter of an hour later, the door to the Imperial Study opened.
Song Jinhuan subconsciously looked up, and a man in a scarlet robe emerged from within.
The lotus flower's beauty is like the color of spring dawn, pure and elegant, like a gentle breeze caressing your face, slowly approaching.
The jade pendant at her waist emitted a pleasant tinkling sound.
The man seemed to notice her gaze and glanced at her.
Song Jinhuan met his gaze for a moment, then immediately lowered her eyelids.
Desire to destroy the world: 10.
Song Jinhuan: ?
A pair of black boots with gold trim stopped in front of her.
A crescent-shaped white light was reflected in the man's dark eyes, a fleeting glimmer.
The momentum was overwhelming.
Song Jinhuan's breathing became slightly labored, and she lowered her head even further.
Everyone says that Elder Xuan is pure of heart and has few desires. Since returning from the battlefield, he has been playing with a string of Buddhist prayer beads on his wrist from time to time.
He is neither sad nor happy in ordinary days, and never gets angry.
But if he were truly celibate, how could he possibly control the government?
Song Jinhuan took a half step back and said respectfully, "This humble woman greets Elder Xuan and wishes Elder Xuan good health."
"Who are you?" The harem was small, and Xuanhe searched the area but couldn't find a match for her identity.
Song Jinhuan answered honestly, "This humble woman, Lin Qiong, is the Empress Dowager's personal maid."
Xuanhe suddenly realized that she was a woman from the Lin family.
Tsk...
Just then, Eunuch Ban came out from inside. "Miss Lin, His Majesty requests your return."
Song Jinhuan gripped the food box tightly, a flash of joy crossing her eyes. She thanked him and then curtsied to Xuan He, saying, "Elder Xuan, this humble woman will take her leave now."
There are many rules in the imperial harem, and one must perform etiquette at every turn.
Any oversight can easily become an excuse for others to attack you.
The young girl walked gracefully through the corridor without looking back.
Xuanhe gazed at the distance for a moment, then withdrew his gaze and turned away.
Song Jinhuan ate to his heart's content before returning to Cining Palace to report back.
The Empress Dowager seemed to have expected this, and waved for her to leave.
Serving the Empress Dowager meant that, apart from reciting and copying scriptures at specific times, one could be considered to have plenty of free time.
The next day, Song Jinhuan went to the imperial kitchen and picked out a few of her favorite dishes to put into a food box.
The food box was twice the size of the previous day's.
At the beginning of the day, he appeared precisely outside the Imperial Study.
Eunuch Ban added that Grand Secretary Xuan was inside discussing matters with the Emperor.
She waited.
Just like the day before, it didn't take long for the door to the Imperial Study to open.
This time she didn't dare to look up. Just one glance the day before had increased her desire to destroy the world by 10 points!
The black boots with gold trim stopped in front of me again.
Desire to destroy the world: 20.
? ? ?
She suspected that this desire to destroy the world stemmed from politics.
In this world, no one who works can avoid going crazy!
Even the powerful Grand Secretary Xuan Ge Lao, who held sway over the court, could not bear the frustration brought on by official business.
Song Jinhuan steadied herself, unconsciously took a half step back, and curtsied, saying, "This humble woman greets Elder Xuan, and wishes Elder Xuan good health."
The girl's voice was soft and gentle, and her words of greeting were full of sincerity, making them particularly pleasant to hear.
Xuanhe's gentle voice came, "No need for formalities."
Song Jinhuan stood up straight and said respectfully, "Thank you, Elder Xuan."
A silence fell over the room.
Why isn't Grandpa Ban coming out yet?
Xuanhe suddenly spoke up: "The weather has turned cooler recently, and I have caught a cold."
Song Jinhuan was puzzled, but still sincerely said, "I hope Elder Xuan recovers soon."
As soon as she finished speaking, Song Jinhuan felt a chill on the back of her neck. She thought to herself that she hadn't noticed it before, but the weather had turned cold really fast.
The girl had a peaceful expression, but her eyes were bright and lively, and she was very beautiful.
Xuanhe pondered for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject: "Miss Lin often copies scriptures for the Empress Dowager. Does she know which scriptures are suitable for praying for my good health?"
