The palace that Gu Jingxing arranged for Danruo was Chonghua Palace, which was closest to his own bedroom.
There is a lotus pond in front of the hall and a plum forest behind it. After the renovation and layout, it is still magnificent.
Today is June 15th. After the grand enthronement ceremony, Danruo went into his bedroom to rest for a while, and it was already dusk.
Lily said she wanted to play a game with her and cover her eyes with a red cloth. Today Kai Xin followed Lily's tricks, and then she felt that Lily had changed her clothes and was pushing her out.
Soon they arrived at a place, and then Lily slipped away quietly.
Danruo didn't know what was going on, so he took off the red cloth covering his eyes.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Gu Jingxing dressed as a groom, tall and handsome with beautiful eyes. In his eyes, she saw herself dressed in red. She looked at her reflection in the lotus pond beside her, and at the same time, she saw the sky full of Kongming lanterns with the word "happiness" on them.
Her eyes gradually became moist, but she couldn't suppress the upturned corners of her lips.
“Chen Danruo, in my heart you will always be my only wife, and the position of queen can only be yours in the future.”
After saying that, he handed the red silk in his hand to Danruo. The two of them worshipped heaven and earth under the moon. Gu Jingxing took her back to the newly decorated bridal chamber.
Lily smiled and brought the cup of wine, feeling very happy. She was really happy that the emperor cared about his master.
After drinking a glass of wine, Dan Ruo's face was already stained with a light red. Gu Jingxing couldn't help but cover her lips with the one he missed, and quickly began to attack her by instinct. Dan Ruo leaned weakly in his arms and let him do whatever he wanted.
The red curtain was pulled by the man's bony hands and fell down slowly, covering up the spring scenery.
Gu Jingxing couldn't understand why some emperors would do such stupid things as not attending court in the morning just for the sake of women.
But tonight he seemed to understand. Looking at the beautiful and peaceful sleeping face in his arms, although he still wanted to, he took Danruo's health into consideration and hugged her and took a nap for a while. Then it was time for the morning court.
He quietly stood up, kissed Danruo lightly on the ear, and left reluctantly.
After he finished the morning court, Dan Ruo happened to wake up. She felt as if her body was falling apart. She didn't expect that Gu Jingxing looked gentle and refined, but was actually as fierce as a wolf.
The two of them went together to pay their respects to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was very kind to Danruo and rewarded him with many good things.
Back at the palace, Lily put the rewards into the warehouse and happily complained to Danruo:
"Wang always said she was doing good for the master, but in reality, she kept asking the master for things. When she couldn't get what she wanted, she started to suppress him, saying that someone's daughter-in-law was in trouble and trying to get the master to submit. That old bitch made her look so shameless.
The Queen Mother treats the young lady well, she truly embodies the demeanor of a mother of a nation."
Dan Ruo lazily lay on the chaise longue to rest, without saying a word, thinking to herself, silly girl, the Queen Mother is not as kind as she looks.
Back then, the late emperor only loved Empress Yuan. No matter how talented the others were, they could not surpass Gu Jingxing, the son of Empress Yuan. No child could be born safely. Everyone was killing each other. In the end, only the Empress Dowager knew that it was the late emperor who did not allow the harem to have children.
So when she was taking care of the young Gu Jingxing herself, the three-year-old Gu Jingxing was playful and accidentally touched the unwashed peaches in the palace maid's basket.
A red rash immediately appeared on her face. The maidservant beside her knew medicine and prescribed some medicine for her, and she was fine.
She didn't want anyone to know that she had taken improper care of Gu Jingxing, so she didn't tell anyone. Only she and the female doctor knew about it.
Gradually, after spending more time with the late emperor, she began to like this man who was deeply in love with her sister. However, after years of companionship, she still could not get any true love from the late emperor.
After she became desperate, she began to envy her sister for having such a sincere love. The long nights in the deep palace gradually nourished her hatred.
She doesn't want the love of the late emperor, but she wants this kingdom, right?
When Gu Jingxing was fifteen years old, according to the rules, he had to arrange for a palace maid to sleep with him. Usually, the palace maid would be stripped naked, wrapped in a quilt and put into a side hall to wait for the prince to favor her.
The Queen Mother scattered the peach hairs she had collected densely inside the quilt. After three attempts, Gu Jingxing no longer dared to get close to women.
The last time was a convulsion, which almost took Gu Jingxing's life.
The late emperor finally knew that the final choice would still be for Gu Jingxing to inherit the throne, but he allowed the empress dowager to have a child to prevent the throne from falling into someone else's hands in the future.
The Queen Mother gave birth to Prince Rong as she wished, and he is twelve years old this year.
In his previous life, Gu Jingxing had never been close to women, and in the end, Prince Rong inherited the throne.
With me as a variable this time, I'm afraid the Queen Mother will have to be on guard.

After lunch, Lily came in and announced, "Master, the eunuch Han who serves in the imperial court came to apologize to you and brought a dirty woman with him."
Danruo put down the cherries in her hand and nodded to signal someone to come in.
Eunuch Han knelt on the ground as soon as he entered the hall, "I apologize to Her Majesty the Concubine. I was careless while doing my job a while ago and took in a woman named Su Yu Niang. I feel uneasy about this, so I came to hand her over to Her Majesty for your disposal."
After saying this, Su Yuniang pulled her hair back, revealing her bruised face. She was forced to look up at the imposing Dan Ruo sitting at the head of the table. She covered her face with her hands, afraid of being recognized. After all, if she were in Dan Ruo's shoes, she might also want to kill herself. She truly regretted it.
Dan Ruo glanced at her calmly and said condescendingly, "Then send her to do some hard labor. She must suffer for her husband's sins."
Eunuch Han rolled his eyes and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for sparing me this time. I will send her to clean the toilet. In the future, please let me know if you need me. I will never refuse."
Eunuch Han never expected that the thing he found in his lustful moment was the one that had offended Concubine Xian before. It was really bad luck, but fortunately he confessed his crime in time.
After Eunuch Han and his men retreated, Lily was furious: "I have to keep an eye on Su Yuniang every day and make sure she teamed up with Du Jun to deceive us."
Dan Ruo stuffed a cherry into her mouth and said, "Good Lily, look forward to the future. Don't let the bad people and bad things in the past stop you from being happy in the future. They are just some grasshoppers in the autumn."
As long as you tighten the string in your hand, it won't jump around for long.
As soon as it got dark, Gu Jingxing came to Danruo's bedroom with full energy. Danruo looked at him and unconsciously wanted to delay going to bed at night.
For half a month, Danruo couldn't stand the person who had tasted the sweetness of sex and planned to make herself pregnant.
Gu Jingxing moved all the memorials to Chonghua Palace for processing. When he got tired of reading them, he asked Danruo to read them to him. After a period of time, Danruo had a good understanding of the situation in the court.
In addition, after her mother, Madam Shen, knew that she was going to enter the palace, she told her the actual situation of the struggles among the women in the harem, trying to make her a smart concubine in a short time, for fear that she would repeat the mistake of being too naive the first time.
There were reports of drought in two places in the north these past few days. When it came to disaster relief, the Ministry of Revenue cried poor. Looking at Gu Jingxing's slightly frowned brow, Dan Ruo had a flash of inspiration.
She has a good idea.
