The nanny paused and turned to look at the queen: "What else do you want, Your Majesty?"
The queen raised her hand and stroked the phoenix crown on her hair. Her dignity was evident in every move she made, as if she had regained her previous dignified demeanor.
"Since I have been appointed as a concubine in the palace for my sister, I should tell my family about this great news."
"Mammy, please secretly find out where the Xianfei's family is and bring them to Kyoto so that they can be reunited. This is the last thing I can do for my sister, the Xianfei."
The nanny rolled her eyes and quickly understood the Queen's intention. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: In terms of means, the Queen is still one step ahead! ——
Seeing that the sun was setting, Jiang Li trimmed the last flower and put it in the vase. Then she stood up and walked out of the hall holding the vase.
Little Dengzi quickly followed: "Madam, are you going to the Imperial Study?"
Jiang Li nodded. She had agreed with the childish boy in the Imperial Study that she would visit him in the Imperial Study at sunset, otherwise he would move the memorials to Jinhua Palace and handle them there in the future.
Jiang Li couldn't imagine what it would be like to stay with Song Chengyin all the time except for court sessions, so she simply followed the agreement and went to the imperial study to see him.
As the saying goes, distance makes beauty.
"My lady, let me come."
Xiao Dengzi reached out to take the vase from Jiang Li's hand. Jiang Li did not refuse and handed the flowers to Xiao Dengzi.
As soon as Jiang Li walked out of the hall, the clingy Xiaobai rushed towards her.
"Meow!"
Xiaobai raised his paw to grab Jiang Li's skirt, wanting to make her squat down so that he could jump into her arms.
Jiang Li understood what it meant and did as it was told. As soon as she squatted down, Xiaobai jumped into her arms.
Jiang Li held the white ball in her arms and moved towards the soft cat on it: "You little guy, I saw you were so honest during the Flower Festival, but who knew you would jump up and down like a monkey."
"Meow~"
Xiaobai rubbed Jiang Li and enjoyed her touch.
"Let's go, or someone's cat will disappear again."
Jiang Li raised her red lips and walked towards the imperial study with Xiaobai in her arms.
It was her first time walking along this palace road. It took her just a cup of tea to reach the imperial study. Only then did she realize that the distance between them was so close.
When the sun was just setting, Song Chengyin kept looking out the door. Anyone could see that he was absent-minded at the moment.
Eunuch Su, who was waiting at the side and behind, understood what was going on. He felt relieved but also a little helpless.
He is happy that Your Majesty has someone in his heart, but Your Majesty, aren't you looking up too often? At this rate, if His Majesty can read three words the moment he lowers his head, he loses!
When Song Chengyin raised his head countless times and was about to get restless, Jiang Li's figure finally appeared outside the imperial study and came into his sight.
The moment he saw Jiang Li, Song Chengyin's vision became bright.
"Why is Ali here?"
Someone pretended to be surprised, stood up and walked towards Jiang Li.
Jiang Li's mouth twitched. Doesn't His Majesty know why I came? Eunuch Su grinned sullenly, then gestured to the palace servants waiting in the imperial study, signaling them to leave.
"I'll take my leave."
The next moment, all the palace servants bent over and moved towards the door.
"Your Majesty, these are the flowers that the Concubine Xian personally arranged for you."
After receiving the look from his godfather, little Dengzi hurriedly put the vase in his hand on the jade table, and specifically emphasized that these were the flowers that Jiang Li had arranged herself.
He knew that when he was thinking about Ali, Ali was also thinking about him all the time.
"reward."
Song Chengyin was delighted and waved his hand. He was completely pleased with Xiao Dengzi's words and rewarded him immediately.
Xiao Dengzi hesitated for a moment, then said firmly, "Your Majesty, I don't want any reward. I only want to be able to serve the virtuous concubine in the future!"
Eunuch Su, who was about to leave, was stunned. He looked at little Dengzi in front of the hall in disbelief. How could this silly boy suddenly want to enter the harem! Xiao Dengzi originally wanted to find an opportunity to ask his godfather to transfer him to Jinhua Palace to serve the virtuous concubine, but now that there was an opportunity for him to take the initiative to ask His Majesty, Xiao Dengzi seized it without thinking.
Song Chengyin raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Dengzi. After recognizing him as Eunuch Su's godson, he hummed lightly, "Okay."
"Your Majesty, I thank you!"
Little Dengzi was overjoyed, and even his voice was a little excited.
"I'll take my leave!"
After expressing his gratitude, little Dengzi did not stay in the imperial study to disturb Song Chengyin and Jiang Li, but followed Eunuch Su out happily.
When the imperial study was closed, Song Chengyin stepped forward and took Jiang Li into his arms, hugged her tightly, and greedily smelled the faint pear fragrance on her body.
The little white cat, who was almost crushed between the two people, meowed and his fur instantly stood up.
Song Chengyin thought it was in the way, so he grabbed it by the body and threw it out of Jiang Li's arms.
Poor Xiaobai was angry but dared not say anything, so he could only hide aside with his head hung sadly.
Jiang Li was filled with hormones and looked up at Song Chengyin: "Have you finished dealing with the memorial to your majesty?"
Song Chengyin rubbed the top of her head and said, "I have a headache. I need Ah Li to read to me."
After much persuasion from Song Chengyin, Jiang Li followed him to the jade desk. Song Chengyin originally wanted Jiang Li to sit in his arms and read, but Jiang Li resolutely took a cushion and sat cross-legged in front of the jade desk.
She cleared her throat and read the contents of the memorial to Song Chengyin as usual.
Song Chengyin picked up the wolf hair brush in front of him and sketched the appearance of Jiang Li on the rice paper. He did the same thing last time, except that last time she was still a little pear, but this time she became his Ah Li.
——
The next day, the east was slightly bright.
Song Chengyin went to the Golden Palace to attend court in a radiant manner, which made Jiang Li very tired.
The court officials stood in their seats with solemn expressions, waiting for the arrival of the protagonist Song Seung-in.
Song Chengyin, wearing a black imperial robe embroidered with gold, strode towards the Golden Throne Hall. The hem of his robe swayed back and forth with his movements. The moment his figure appeared in the Golden Throne Hall, all the civil and military officials in the court knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty!"
The court officials saluted Song Chengyin on the dragon throne as usual, but the solemn atmosphere in the hall was completely different from that of yesterday's court session.
Song Chengyin naturally felt it. He glanced at the courtiers kneeling in the hall and said, "Everyone, stand up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After expressing their gratitude, the court officials did not stand up, but raised their hands above their heads.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Xian concealed her identity and entered the palace in my sister's place. She lurked beside Your Majesty and deserves death. This act has already committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. I beg Your Majesty to punish her!"
