Chapter 27 She is thoughtful
Jiayue's hand froze in mid-air. Seeing the person coming, she hurriedly saluted, "Your Majesty."
Zhang Chengyan walked forward and his eyes fell on the red and swollen half of Bai Wutong's face.
Jin Weige took two steps forward and explained in a pretentious tone, "I am teaching this blind beauty a lesson. She actually dared to flatter me in front of the Queen Mother. She has a vicious mind and must be punished!"
Zhang Chengyan retracted his gaze, "Go back now that you've been taught a lesson. You've just been released from house arrest, so it's better not to be too domineering."
Lady Bai is so weak, how dare you put any pressure on her?
First he killed Lady Gao, and then he blamed Lady Bai.
Jin Weige is almost stirring up the atmosphere in the harem.
If Jin Zhi had not just made a contribution, Zhang Chengyan would have definitely given him a verbal lesson.
"Yes, I received a letter from my brother yesterday. I was very happy and made the cakes that the emperor likes. Will you come?"
Since she mentioned Jin Zhi, Zhang Chengyan really had to give her this face, "Okay."
Jin Weige smiled happily and ignored Bai Wutong who was kneeling on the ground. "Your Majesty, I am very happy that you can come."
The two men walked past her and headed straight towards Yaoguang Palace.
Amid the rich aroma, a hint of blood was faintly discernible. As a raccoon slave, she is most sensitive to the smell of blood.
Is this... sunflower water?
Jin Weige has her period!
Bai Wutong's mind moved and he came up with an idea.
Wang Decai came over slowly, "Hey, Madam, please get up quickly and stop kneeling. The Emperor specially asked me to find a female doctor to treat your face."
"No need, it's not serious, so don't bother the female doctor. Otherwise, if Concubine Rong finds out, she might be upset." Bai Wutong smiled at him very gently.
Wang Decai had no choice but to agree. This was something that Concubine Rong could do.
Maybe after Bai Wutong saw the female doctor, she would find another excuse to slap him tomorrow.
"Then please go back quickly, madam."
Bai Wutong stood up and said, "Eunuch Wang, thank you so much."
"Your Highness, you don't have to be polite. This is what I should do. I will go to the Emperor first."
In a blink of an eye, the surroundings were empty and silent.
Bai Wutong touched his face and quickly returned to Xueqiong Garden.
Lian Xin was shocked when she saw the redness and swelling on her face. "My Lady, what happened? Who hit you?"
"It was Concubine Rong who beat me. It's okay. She just doesn't like me." Bai Wutong rolled up his sleeves. "Go get some things. I want to make pine nut and lily pastry."
"This is the emperor's favorite food." Lianxin guessed that it was for the emperor and hurried to prepare it.
Bai Wutong took out a small box from under the bed and opened it, revealing a number of porcelain bottles inside.
Each one contains medicinal powder, but the medicinal effects are different.
She took one out, put it aside, and put the rest back.
Lian Xin came back with something, "My Lady, do you want me to help you?"
"No, it's more thoughtful to do it yourself. Go and help me light the fire."
Xueqiongyuan has a small kitchen, which was there when it was first built and is just right for use.
Bai Wutong makes every pine nut and lily pastry with great care.
A strong fragrance gradually filled the air.
Lian Xin sniffed, "Your Majesty, it smells so good. The Emperor will definitely like it."
"I hope so." Bai Wutong put the pine nut and lily pastry aside to cool first, so that the skin would not become soft due to the heat in the food box.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Bai Wutong carried the lunch box and called Xiao Ningzi, "Go find Eunuch Wang and tell him that I'm waiting for him on the same road as last time."
Xiao Ningzi nodded and said, "Yes."
He left quickly.
The jasmine flowers on that road were still blooming vigorously, and the sunset turned them red, which was extremely beautiful.
Wang Decai came to the path and asked, "Madam, what do you want from me?"
If it weren't for the fact that the emperor was in love with Lady Bai, no one would be able to move him.
Bai Wutong took out the gold leaf first, "Eunuch Wang, thanks to the timely appearance of the emperor today, I was able to avoid the punishment of Concubine Rong. In addition, I said something wrong the other day, so I thought of making some pine nut and lily cakes that the emperor likes the most."
She handed over the food box and said, "Please say a few kind words, eunuch, so that the emperor can have a taste."
Wang Decai took it and said, "Okay, I will deliver it to the emperor. It is late at night and the dew is heavy. Please go back early and don't catch a cold."
Bai Wutong agreed with a smile and watched him leave.
Be cautious in the hall.
Zhang Chengyan had changed into his regular clothes and was ready to look at the memorials before going to rest.
With Jin Zhi stabilizing southern Xinjiang, he felt a little more at ease.
However, the Darong Kingdom cannot have only one available general, it must also train new ones.
Otherwise, Jin Zhi’s reputation would become too prominent in the future, and he, the emperor, would not be able to sleep well.
Wang Decai stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, look, this is sent by Lady Bai. It is your favorite pine nut and lily cake."
"Oh? You just went to get this thing?"
Wang Decai agreed and repeated Bai Wutong's words.
"She is thoughtful."
Each pine nut and lily pastry is small and exquisite, and the fragrance spreads as the food box is opened.
Zhang Chengyan took a bite and found it tasted very good, with a fragrance that was not found in the imperial kitchen.
He was already a little hungry, and ate several without realizing it.
Seeing this, Wang Decai smiled even more, "Your Majesty, I will prepare mouthwash for you."
"Go ahead." Zhang Chengyan wiped his hands, leaned back on the couch, and closed his eyes to rest.
Soon, he opened his eyes.
He didn't know if it was because he thought of Bai Wutong just now, but he actually felt his body slightly hot.
I think he hasn't flipped the cards for a long time, and he might be holding back his anger.
He thought of Jin Weige during the day, and also thought of Jin Zhi's contribution, and stood up, "Wang Decai, accompany me to Yaoguang Palace, and turn over the name card of Rong Fei today!"
The other concubines could only be carried over, but Concubine Rong could wait for the emperor to come.
This is what it means to be favored.
With the help of moonlight, Zhang Chengyan came to Yaoguang Hall, where candles were still lit.
Wang Decai immediately went forward and knocked on the door.
The lanterns outside the hall lit up one after another.
When Jin Weige heard the news, he immediately stood up and said, "This... this is too unfortunate!"
Ever since she lost her child, her period has been irregular.
It was supposed to come in the middle of the month, but it came early today.
But she was unwilling to let the emperor go back, so she hurried out to greet him, "Your Majesty, you are here!"
Zhang Chengyan nodded and took her hand, "Let's go."
If it were in the past, Jin Weige would have been extremely happy and would have followed him into the room shyly and timidly, but today she simply couldn't smile at all.
Arrived at the bedside.
She carefully helped the emperor undress, "Your Majesty, why are you suddenly interested today?"
Zhang Chengyan put his arm around her waist and said, "I missed you."
He pulled off the last piece of clothing and pushed Jin Weige onto the bed, "Pregnant me with a dragon heir soon."
Jin Weige hurriedly held his hand, "Your Majesty, wait!"
"What's wrong?" Zhang Chengyan didn't want to wait any longer. He was particularly angry today.
"Your concubine... Your concubine has her period, and her body is unclean."
Zhang Chengyan's expression turned cold and he pushed the person away.
Jin Weige hugged his arm and said, "I don't want Your Majesty to find someone else. It hurts my heart. Your Majesty, can I help you in another way?"
She pressed her fingers to her little mouth and looked seductively.
Zhang Chengyan closed his shirt and said, "Since you are unclean, how can I, as the son of the dragon, mess around with you here!"
"Your Majesty, don't go!"
Zhang Chengyan was already feeling uncomfortable, and when he saw that Jin Weige still didn't let go, he completely lost his patience, pushed her away, and strode out of Yaoguang Hall.
Wang Decai, who was waiting outside, hurriedly followed.
Zhang Chengyan untied his collar and walked on the road in annoyance.
Before I knew it, I had arrived at Xueqiong Garden.
At the door, a graceful figure was picking flowers with an enchanting posture.
Zhang Chengyan's eyes darkened, and he quickly stepped forward and hugged the beauty. The faint fragrance rushed into his nostrils, making him unable to bear it. He simply picked up Bai Wutong and quickly walked into Xueqiong Garden.
Bai Wutong leaned in his arms. This day was finally coming.
