Chapter 162 I Want to Explain
Zi Rui gritted her teeth and said, "I'm afraid he came here specifically to see the emperor!"
Shen Chuliu got down to the ground: "Just say I'm not feeling well and won't see you."
Soon, Yingcai came in. After being invited in, Zizhu smiled and said, "What a coincidence! Our master is not feeling well. He didn't even wake up when the emperor left."
What this means is that the emperor did not alarm their master, so would Concubine Ying dare to be more powerful than the emperor?
"Sister Jing is ill, so she should rest more. I just feel guilty, so I came here to see that it's all my fault."
"What are you saying? Our master never said that. You don't have to worry about it. You are still pregnant, and it must be hard for you to come all the way here." Zizhu said.
Ying Cairen smiled and said yes.
When she met the emperor just now, she just paid her respects.
The emperor only heard that she came to see Concubine Jing and left without saying anything.
In fact, she came because she knew the emperor was here, and she didn't intercept him during the day, she just wanted to explain.
As a result, he arrived too late. The emperor had left, but Concubine Jing had not even gotten up yet.
I sat down and drank some water, but left after a while.
"master?"
Shen Chuliu came out and sat down: "You are so thoughtful."
"That's right." Zi Rui snorted.
She didn't say a word just now, but she was very upset.
"Okay, you're all angry." Shen Chuliu said with a smile: "Let's play cards for a while."
Zizhu smiled and went to get it.
Qi Yixiu returned to Taiji Palace and asked Chusi with great interest to watch when Ying Cairen would come out.
After a while, Chusi replied that he was leaving.
"Tsk, less than a quarter of an hour, it looks like she hit a wall." Qi Yixiu laughed: "That woman dared to yell at me when she was angry, let alone a talented person like Ying? She deserves to hit a wall."
"I don't know." Chusi lowered his head.
"It's better that you don't know. The less you know, the better. Ying Cairen just thinks too much. Let her hit a wall." Qi Yixiu smiled and continued to work.
Soon, everyone in the palace knew about this. Was Concubine Ying going to block the emperor? Was she really going to fight Concubine Jing to the end?
But isn’t it a bit unsightly for a pregnant person to go out and block people?
When she paid her respects the next day, someone laughed at her.
But Miss Jing is not here, and it’s always boring without the real person.
Shen Chuliu recovered from his illness until the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month.
This is pretty lazy enough.
She still wore plain clothes and went to Fengzao Palace, and the queen asked about her health in a friendly manner.
She also expressed her gratitude respectfully.
There was nothing new in the confrontation. Today it was not her turn, but Chen Baolin versus Lu Baolin.
Last night, the emperor first turned over Chen Baolin's nameplate, but Lu Baolin said he was not feeling well and asked the emperor to come over.
In the end, the emperor just went to take a look and finally returned to Taiji Palace.
Shen Chuliu listened for a while and thought that the emperor was also immoral. Wasn't this intentional?
But it had nothing to do with her, and she had no intention of saying anything.
But Chen Baolin was not a pushover either, and actually mentioned her: "Before, Concubine Ying took advantage of her pregnancy to block the emperor in Cuiyunxuan, and now you, Lu Baolin, have learned it! The royal heir is certainly important, but does it mean that those who are pregnant with the royal heir in this palace don't have to follow the rules?"
Li Jieyu glared: "Chen Baolin, please be careful with your words. I am also pregnant with the royal heir. How could I not follow the rules?"
"Why must Concubine Li be like this? I'm not talking about you." Chen Baolin sneered.
"People are different. Yingcai came to see me, probably to see me. But I was drowsy that day and didn't realize it until the evening." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
Ying Cairen hurriedly said, "That's exactly it."
"You're not afraid of losing that piece of meat!" Chen Baolin sneered.
I don't know whether this is referring to Ying Cairen or Lu Baolin.
The queen just watched the show.
When they were almost done making noise, the queen waved her hand and said, "Go away. The plum blossoms are in full bloom, if you are interested, go and have a look."
Everyone thanked her and went out.
As soon as they went out, Concubine Yi said, "Let's go to Merlin."
Her eunuchs helped her get on the sedan chair, and anyone else who wanted to go was stopped.
"Sister Zhao, do you have anything to do today?" Shen Chuliu went to Lady Zhao.
"Nothing, nothing. I was just about to call you. Come to my place. Isn't there a small patch of plum blossoms outside my Qiu Shui Pavilion? There are also white plum blossoms. Let's go and have a look. Yao Baolin, come with us." Lady Zhao knew that Yao Baolin and Shen Chuliu were close, so she called them together.
"Let's go." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
Yao Baolin also smiled and said yes.
Su Yunv also came over and said: "Sisters, if you don't mind, please take me with you. I want to see the plum blossoms, too."
"I don't mind. Why would I? Let's go." Lady Zhao said with a smile.
The group went to Qiushui Pavilion, and Lady Zhao's maid went back to settle down first. Although the weather was cold, everyone was talking and didn't feel it.
We soon arrived at the place and without resting, we went straight to see the plum blossoms.
As soon as I approached, I could smell the faint scent of plum blossoms.
"There are three plum groves in the palace, and there is actually one outside Changle Palace. But most of the plum blossoms there are red and winter plums, which Concubine Yi doesn't like. The plum grove in the Imperial Garden has the most white plums. The one here, however, is mostly red plums, with only one white plum." Concubine Zhao explained.
"I think this red plum blossom is very beautiful." Shen Chuliu said.
"Like Sister Jing, I also think that this red plum blossom is unique. It will be even more beautiful if there is snow." Su Yu Nu said.
"When I was a child, there was a green-calyx plant at home, but unfortunately we didn't take good care of it and it died. The plum blossom was also beautiful," said Yao Baolin.
"Oh, that's a rare species, how come it died?"
Shen Chuliu listened to them talking and thought, isn't white plum a kind of green-calyx plum? She still thinks the red plum is the most beautiful.
While admiring the plum blossoms, Shen Chuliu even suggested borrowing the bottle from Lady Zhao to cut a few plum blossoms to take back.
Then the eunuchs were heard singing, saying that the emperor had arrived.
They looked at each other in bewilderment. How could they see the emperor in Qiu Shui Pavilion?
The Emperor did come here often, but he usually went to the Empress Dowager's or the Imperial Garden.
Just passing by.
But if you are just passing by, there is no need to report.
Concubine Zhao and others hurried out of Meilin, but halfway through their journey, the emperor had already come in.
He was wearing a snow-white robe, a jade belt around his waist, a golden crown on his hair, and two silver ribbons falling from his hair to his chest. He was indescribably elegant, handsome and charming.
"My beloved concubines are in such a good mood, why didn't you tell me that you invited me?"
Qi Yixiu originally wanted to ask Jing Meiren to go appreciate the plum blossoms together, but when he heard that they were here, he decided to come too.
"Why don't you go to the Imperial Garden?" There are many plum blossoms there.
Lady Zhao hesitated, not knowing what to say.
Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "There is a big tiger in the Imperial Garden. I am afraid of it, so I begged Sister Zhao to come here. Your Majesty, please don't dislike this place. Look, these are all red plums. How beautiful are they?"
Qi Yixiu raised his eyebrows, big tiger.
So he turned to look at Chusi, who whispered, "Empress Yi is admiring the plum blossoms in the Imperial Garden."
