Elsewhere in the palace, inside a magnificent hall, a man sat at the edge of a table, looking at a book in his hand. The man was about thirty years old, with a dignified and majestic appearance. Sitting there, he had a kind of awe-inspiring air.
Now he sat there, writing on the book with a pen, and then asked in a flat voice:
"Li Dequan, I heard that the Ninth and Tenth Masters brought a woman into the palace today?"
"yes,"
"The Ninth and Tenth Princes love it very much, and Concubine Yi has also seen it."
Li Dequan was a little nervous after hearing the emperor's question. "Yes, the people below said that the Ninth Prince brought that girl into the palace today to attend the Eighth Prince's concubine banquet, and also met the Concubine Yi."
"Humph, why are you so nervous? I'm just asking."
"You said that this old man brought his future daughter-in-law into the palace to meet the mother-in-law, Concubine Yi, but why didn't he let her meet me?"
"I don't know about this. It's probably because of the emperor's majesty that the ninth prince dares not disturb you casually." Are you kidding? You are an emperor. Who among ordinary people is qualified to see you?
"Yeah"
"Yes, haha," Li Dequan said, and carefully wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Tonight, I will go to Yikun Palace"
"Yes, I will send someone to tell them right away."
"Um"
When Li Dequan heard the emperor's response, he walked out. For a moment, the hall was silent.
…
Baoer was sent home by Yinzhen and Yin?, and the two left without staying for long.
Baoer went into the palace today and met Concubine Yi, who had been favored for more than ten years. She was in her thirties but looked like a woman of twenty.
Concubine Yi was beautiful and graceful, with a straightforward personality, outstanding temperament, and a witty tongue. It was no wonder that she was favored by the Emperor.
It’s a pity that I don’t know when I can meet the other kings in the harem.
Looking at the dozen or so princes today, each of them is outstanding, especially His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who is simply a peerless gentleman as beautiful as jade.
There is also the Fourth Beile, who is also the future Emperor Yongzheng in history. He looks thin and delicate.
Maybe I've heard too much about the conflicts between Yinzhen and the Fourth Prince, and I don't know if I have a prejudice against him, but I always feel that he looks a bit like the orange cat next door in my previous life. If I have to describe it, he looks like a cool orange cat with his cold face, except that he's a little thin.
I remember that I almost laughed out loud when I first saw the Fourth Prince.
Forget it, don’t think about it. After all, being in the palace today is not like being at home, and I feel a little nervous.
Feeling a little tired after coming back, Baoer asked the maid Orange Cherry to get her some bath water. She planned to take a bath and go to bed. She didn't plan to write any more today.
The next morning after breakfast, Baoer received a message from the doorman that Nian Gengyao, who had come last time, had come and wanted to see Baoer.
When Baoer heard that Nian Gengyao was coming, he felt guilty for some reason.
After thinking about it, she realized that some things needed to be made clear and she couldn't delay him any longer. Baoer suppressed some of the strangeness in her heart and went out with Orange and Cherry.
Looking at the seemingly gentle and harmless Nian Gengyao in front of her, who looked extraordinary just standing there, Baoer felt a complex feeling in her heart. What was she worthy of...
After a moment of silence, Baoer said calmly, "You are here."
Nian Gengyao instantly sensed something was wrong with Bao'er. He suppressed his doubts calmly and said, "Yes, I'm here. I came here today because I have something to tell you, Bao'er. Let's go to the teahouse we met last time."
Baoer agreed without any hesitation, as she happened to have something to talk to Nian Gengyao about.
Baoer was a little silent along the way.
Nian Gengyao was a little worried. "Bao'er, what's wrong with you today? You look a little unhappy."
Bao Er twitched his lips, his face a little stiff, and casually made up an excuse, "No, I was just thinking about some personal things."
Nian Gengyao understood that this was Baoer's perfunctory words to him. Thinking about what he was going to say today, he felt complicated for a moment.
After a while, the driver drove the carriage to the door of the teahouse and said, "Sir, we are at Miss Lin's teahouse."
Nian Gengyao was the first to lift the curtain and get off the carriage. Then he turned around and stretched out his hand to help Baoer get off the carriage. Baoer hesitated for a moment and then held out his hand.
Nian Gengyao looked at this scene with a flash of joy in his eyes.
As soon as the two got off the car, they went straight to a private room on the second floor, where tea and snacks that suited Baoer's taste were prepared in advance.
Nian Gengyao first pulled out a chair and asked Baoer to sit down, then he sat down himself, and then poured tea for Baoer and himself.
"Come, have some tea, it's what you like"
Baoer took it and said "thank you"
Nian Gengyao felt a pang of regret when he heard Bao'er's polite thanks. He thought only outsiders would express gratitude, so obviously...
Nian Gengyao looked at Bao'er seriously and smiled bitterly, "Bao'er, you never need to thank me, no matter when."
Baoer nodded after hearing this and said, "Okay, by the way, what do you want to talk to me about this time?"
"I..." Nian Gengyao hesitated, he didn't know what to do.
"If, I mean if, I have to leave the capital temporarily for some things, would you be willing to wait for me?" Nian Gengyao looked expectantly.
Although he knew it was impossible, Nian Gengyao still wanted to try to ask.
Bao Er was startled after hearing what Nian Gengyao said, and felt a little helpless. He hurriedly asked, "Ah, you are leaving, where are you going, and how long will you be gone?"
Hearing Baoer's caring words, Nian Gengyao felt happy. Baoer still cared about him, so he comforted Baoer.
"Don't worry, I left the capital for something. My father is now the governor of Huguang, so he needs me to go there for something. This trip will probably take a few months at the fastest, but if it's slow..."
"Ah, so long?"
