Chapter 231: The Evil Concubine (5)
Emperor Ping had not set foot in the palace where Shi Yi was since he left last time. Sometimes when she was bored, she would look at the plaque hanging on the palace.
What is the meaning of the word "Wei Rui"?
Emperor Ping in Dayang Palace had a very hard time recently.
He looked through the jade plaques of the concubines in the harem and found that none of them were as interesting as the one in Wei Rui Palace. But how could he, the emperor, bow down again and again! He waited and waited in his own palace, but no one came for almost half a decade!
"Is the emperor worried because of the mistress of Wei Rui Palace?" The eunuch Cai gently waved a bone fan to cool him down, but his face showed that he was familiar with the world and was not surprised.
"Humph, I don't have that kind of person who disrespects the inferior." Emperor Ping was seen through, so he threw away the pen in his hand and half-lay on the chair decorated with dragon patterns.
"When the late emperor was still alive, Madam Fuyao, who was the only favorite in the harem, also kept a diary like the emperor does!" Eunuch Cai picked up the pen from the table and placed it on the inkstone with a smile.
"The late emperor favored Madam Fuyao because she was knowledgeable and interesting. I have never seen a person as gentle as Madam Fuyao in this harem!" Emperor Ping rubbed his eyes and lost the mood to review the memorials on the table.
"But has the emperor ever thought about why Madam Fuyao is so gentle, considerate, tender, knowledgeable and interesting?" Eunuch Cai put down the bone fan, came behind him, and naturally massaged his shoulders.
"She is not my beauty, why should I think about these things?" Emperor Ping closed his eyes and enjoyed the moment of relaxation.
"The late emperor had many beauties in his harem, many of whom were multi-talented, but each of them had her own temperament. Before Madam Fuyao entered the palace, the late emperor favored General Yan's legitimate daughter, a beauty as dazzling as a raging fire. When the horse raced on the city wall, it raised dust that made many princes miss her for the rest of the year. Madam Fuyao, on the other hand, looked like a beautiful girl from a small family, and her family background was not outstanding, so the late emperor's concubines did not take her seriously. But Madam Fuyao was a smart person, and she knew that it was not feasible to compete with family background, talent, or beauty, so she put Wen "The gentleness turned into a weapon, step by step, dispelling the late emperor's defenses, which is why she was favored by the late emperor for so many years." Eunuch Cai's hands gradually became lighter, and there was a hint of regret in his eyes, "I can still remember the fiery face and figure of Concubine Yan, but beauty fades. The late emperor favored Madam Fuyao for only half a year, and Concubine Yan grew old and later died of a cold. Upon learning the news of her death, the late emperor stood by the bed for a long time, and then he regretted to the servant at that time that it was I who had made a mistake."
"What is the relationship between my harem and the late emperor's harem?" After hearing this story, Emperor Ping became irritated for no reason.
"Gao Shiyi is extremely beautiful, slender and graceful, and her looks are full of charm. Even a eunuch like me would be happy to see her, let alone you, Your Majesty?" Eunuch Cai walked up to him, half squatted down and looked at him, his eyes kind and said: "I don't want you to regret it like the previous emperor after the beauty has faded."
"I don't believe that there is no second person as beautiful as Gao Shiyi in this world!" Emperor Ping stood up instantly with his feet touching the ground.
Eunuch Cai, who lowered his head, had kind eyes and a smile on his face.
He knew that the emperor had already understood it, but he just loved his face, otherwise he would not have acted so quickly.
However, as long as the emperor is happy, it's fine.
"I came here today to see if the plaque sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs suits my taste!" As soon as Emperor Ping stepped into the inner room, he had finished his prepared speech.
"I am really happy that the emperor can come." Shiyi, who had received the message a long time ago, had been waiting for a long time in his best clothes.
"What's wrong with your makeup today? It's so ugly." Emperor Ping reached out and wiped off the flower ornaments on her head, and then wiped off the pink powder on her cheeks. Shi Yi
stood obediently and let him wipe it on her face.
She thought about how she looked in the mirror when she was done with her makeup. Although this makeup was not absolutely beautiful, it really made her look like a fairy. Could it be that the emperor couldn't appreciate it? If so, she would not wear such makeup next time.
"What are you thinking about in your little head?!" Seeing her thoughtful look, the emperor poked his finger on her forehead.
"I was thinking about going to you to apologize before, but I am of a humble position and I really dare not humiliate myself." Shi Yi took the opportunity to grab his finger and held it in her palm.
She dared to guarantee that the emperor was concerned about the past when he ascended the throne in his early years. Otherwise, he would not have given his daughter from Chaoyang Palace the status of a noble concubine.
Fortunately, she had gotten rid of herself from Chaoyang Palace early.
"You know you are of low status, yet you still dare to call yourself a concubine?" Emperor Ping sneered, his thin lips were cold and sharp, obviously deliberately mean to her.
"Because I know that I am loved by the emperor, I will definitely not always be a concubine." Shi Yi boldly pulled the corner of his mouth, making him look like he was smiling.
"I am curious, what is the intention of the Chaoyang Palace to send a lovely girl like you into my harem?" Emperor Ping sat down at the table, his eyes fell on Shi Yi, Shi Yi understood and immediately stepped forward to pour tea and water.
"I also find it strange... very..."
Emperor Ping pushed her hand away, and said slowly word by word: "In the future, when you and I are together, you can just call me a concubine. Your calling me 'concubine' makes my hair stand on end and makes me feel uncomfortable."
"Okay." Shi Yi took back the half-spilled teacup, and was quietly excited in his heart.
What kind of fairy emperor is this! He is so equal! So considerate!
She didn't know that her eyes turned into stars when she looked at the emperor, blinking so charmingly that Emperor Ping, who had been paying attention to her, couldn't help but be moved.
"If you really love me... and me at first sight, then you will definitely not deceive me, right?" When the emperor said this, he was afraid that she would lie, and stared at her eyes.
"No!" Shi Yi shook her head firmly.
Her mission was to help Emperor Ping defend the country, not to be a witch concubine who ruined the country, so she naturally would not help the Chaoyang Palace to deceive Emperor Ping.
"Then I ask you to tell me the truth every time someone from the Chaoyang Palace contacts you." Emperor Ping looked at the delicate and fair face in front of him, and his heart couldn't help but touch it.
"Okay! I will only do things that are beneficial to the emperor in my life." Shi Yi took the initiative to hold his hand and put it on her cheek.
She liked the feeling of such a frank chat.
Emperor Ping looked at her deeply for a long time, and suddenly smiled.
