When Huan Yue woke up in the morning, he saw that the rain, which had stopped the previous evening, had started falling again.
The spring breeze was chilly.
What do people do? Of course, they crawl into bed and continue sleeping.
Although I want to say goodbye to bed when I'm sick, the happiest thing is actually being a blanket spirit.
Besides, how can the feeling of a patient lying in bed be compared to that of a healthy person?
Huan Yue was sleeping soundly in his fragrant bed when he vaguely heard dogs barking and woofing.
Why is that jerk here again? Has he really lost his mind?
"Still asleep?"
"Are you alright?"
"The dog is the problem, his whole family is the problem!" Huan Yue got up and sat on the edge of the bed, just in time to see the dog of a man come in!
How could he just walk into a girl's bedroom like that?
Even though he's married and that's his right, shouldn't he at least have some manners?
The rear hall was implicitly considered her space.
Xie Zhou was clearly unaware of this; he came in carrying a chill, and although the room was quite dark, he could only be vaguely seen.
He saw his wife lying on the headboard, her black hair mixed with the blanket, and he had an idea!
This is perfectly normal; he went over and sat on the edge of the bed.
Huan Yue's leg trembled, but he quickly pressed it down with his hand. He was already sitting on the edge of the bed, so there was no need to kick it; he could throw it out later when he wanted to do something.
Xie Zhou stared at her legs, which were stirring restlessly under the covers. He stared intently at her.
Huan Yue glared back fiercely, "Come on, let's hurt each other!"
Xie Zhou assessed her combat strength while inhaling the fragrance emanating from her.
It's warm and moist but not humid, with a subtle sweetness.
Xie Zhou glanced at her clothes; it was cold outside and she was wearing thick clothes even to bed. He kindly asked her, "Can you sleep with so much on?"
able.
Okay then. But Xie Zhou asked, "Aren't you going to eat?"
eat.
Xie Zhou found her expression quite amusing, stood up, and said, "Clean up and let's have our meal."
He went out first, his mind still filled with thoughts about her.
It doesn't matter that I have no memory of my past life; I will face the present.
Huan Yue lingered on the bed for a while.
The palace maids came in, and she had no choice but to get up. Disturbing someone's sleep was like cutting off their livelihood.
Several palace maids were laughing. His Highness treated the Empress well; there was no strange or unpleasant atmosphere in the palace.
The most vulnerable when masters fight amongst themselves are the servants.
Although Miss Di is coming today, His Highness's attitude is very clear: the Empress is not someone to be trifled with.
The Empress doesn't go to see the Consort, so she doesn't dress up elaborately now; she just wants to look beautiful for the meal and for His Highness to see.
The people of Qing'e Palace always hope that His Highness prefers this place; that's the proper thing to do.
Cuizhu mingled with the palace maids and learned to do things from them.
Originally, after the marriage was arranged, someone from the palace would go to the Pei residence to teach them various etiquette rules.
However, everyone knows what kind of people Empress Dong and the Pei family are, so it's not that they don't know how to do it, but rather that they might not do it very well.
Cuizhu is honest, so it won't be difficult for her to learn again.
She's really honest, so no one bullies honest people anymore.
The cat was quite clever, and the others kindly gave her pointers, which was a way of giving the Empress face.
Although the Pei family is not good, she was brought from her maternal family after all, that's all.
Huan Yue tidied himself up and went to the east side room wearing a cloak.
The lights were already on inside, and the chef was setting out the meal.
A group of people followed the Empress, watching to see what Cherry would do in front of His Highness.
It wasn't a direct flirtation; I wouldn't dare. This is called teasing. Cherry is quite pretty, and flirting with her is quite effective.
"What are you doing?" the cat asked angrily.
"What do you, a little girl, know?" Huan Yue said to the cat with a smile.
The cat, embarrassed and annoyed, looked up at the Empress, asking, "Aren't you angry?"
Huan Yue remained unfazed. "Your Highness has a white moonlight in your heart, and who knows how many more women will come in the future? What's there to be angry about? You'd be better off eating a couple more bowls of rice."
The cat pursed her lips, wanting to stomp her foot but not daring to; she was just a lowly maid. But she secretly glanced at His Highness, displeased.
Xie Zhou was also unhappy. Pei Shi really kept her distance from him and didn't care about him.
This is completely abnormal. Although he doesn't know about his mother's condition, he must still miss his father.
Xie Zhou looked at her with his deep eyes. Wasn't he in a hurry to have a legitimate son?
Huan Yue held his head, it hurt.
Xie Zhou was furious. He sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and watched as Pei Shi ate happily.
"Isn't he better than a plate of crystal lion's head meatballs?" He gestured to the eunuch, "Bring me two of those lion's head meatballs."
The eunuch glanced at the Empress, then gave the Prince a subtle look. Could someone who tried to steal food from the Empress possibly win her favor? In any case, the eunuch thought the Prince wanted the Empress's attention.
The eunuch had his methods; by simply delaying the process, and given the speed at which the Empress ate, the last lion's head meatball was in her bowl.
Xie Zhou glanced at the eunuch and brought the steamed mandarin fish to the Empress.
That's fine.
Just then, the plate of lion's head meatballs was removed, so the steamed mandarin fish was placed over there.
The eunuch saw the Empress's gaze linger on the sauce in the dish for a moment, and his heart softened.
Huan Yue said, "The juice is nutritious, and many of the juices are specially made."
The cat said from the side, "Pour it into the bowl and I'll mix it with rice later."
What a good girl! Huan Yue has no more burdens.
The cat knew the broth was delicious; it was a happy thing for the empress to eat meat and for her to drink the soup.
Back in the Pei family, the Empress herself would drink the soup, but the servants would get none.
Xie Zhou reassured his wife, "Don't worry, you'll have plenty to eat from now on."
Huan Yue put down his chopsticks and said seriously, "There is no shortage of food in the palace, which is my good fortune. But famines are common, and people often go hungry. This is delicious and nutritious, so we should save a little and accumulate good fortune."
Xie Zhou had no choice but to praise, "Your Majesty is virtuous! I will remember it."
Huan Yue replied dismissively, "Your Highness's benevolence brings blessings to the world."
Keep eating.
Xie Zhou urged her to eat more, reminding her that even if they were frugal, she couldn't go hungry.
The situation in recent years has indeed been good.
Things went wrong when Xie Zhou took over, which is why the Emperor was wise.
The eunuchs observed that the way they ate was different from what others did.
Huan Yue casually said, "Food is the most important thing for the people. When you eat, think about the people's meals and take the world as your responsibility. Then you can sit firmly in your position."
Xie Zhou stood up and bowed deeply to his wife: "Your Majesty is very virtuous."
Huan Yue still had to avoid the situation.
Isn't this something everyone who has received compulsory education knows? But not everyone can actually do it.
Xie Zhou sat down, picked up his chopsticks, and continued eating, keeping his wife company.
So she wasn't worried about her reputation at all? As long as the people lived well, she didn't care if she was a tyrant.
So-called tyrants only oppress a segment of the population, whom they resent and despise. They'll understand once the common people are doing well.
Huan Yue finished his meal happily, thinking that this jerk of a man wasn't so bad sometimes. Otherwise, nobody would watch this male lead.
The eunuch came over.
Xie Zhou gestured for him to speak.
The eunuch told the Empress, "Yesterday afternoon, Pei Erlang went out and saw Miss Lü's carriage. He went up and said something, but General Lü and his brothers beat him up badly."
Huan Yue blinked. Why didn't you say so earlier? How badly was the beating?
Xie Zhou saw her excitedly rolling up her sleeves, wanting to take over herself, but Pei Erlang really deserved a beating.
The palace official said, "Just now, General Lü brought several of his sons to the palace to plead guilty to the Emperor."
Huan Yue was in a great mood! General Lü was a master at making false accusations!
His son, in particular, was thick-skinned and could withstand thirty lashes without any problem, but Pei Erlang was different.
