Chapter 617: Too direct
Qi Yixiu laughed along, only she could have such a wonderful idea.
"Let's go and stroll along the lake." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
There is a ground lamp every few meters along the lakeside. When the emperor comes to visit, they naturally light it up.
The floor lamps are all on stone platforms, so as long as there is someone watching over them when they are lit at night, there is no need to worry about anything happening.
The light illuminated the lake, making it sparkle. Shen Chuliu was in a good mood.
The night breeze is cool and feels very comfortable.
Since the road was not clear, naturally there were people coming.
So soon, it was Princess Reed who came.
She wasn't here to join in the fun, she just happened to be here.
Since we know that the emperor is here, we have to pay our respects to him.
Of course, it was obvious what was going on with Mabelyn in front of her.
Coincidence is coincidence, but isn’t this coincidence just right?
After paying her respects, Concubine Li De smiled and said, "What a coincidence, I met the Emperor and Sister Jing here."
"What a coincidence. We haven't met like this for some time." Shen Chuliu smiled.
"Mei Baolin is dressed very exquisitely." Shen Chuliu looked up and down.
Mei Baolin is naturally good-looking, and her outfit today is not as exaggerated as before, but just the right amount of exquisiteness.
I guess someone must have pointed it out.
"Thank you for your praise, Her Majesty Jingxian. Of course, I am not as good as you." Mei Baolin said shyly.
Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you just mentioned canna, is this it?"
Qi Yixiu smiled. The woman in front of him was wearing an emerald green skirt and a goose yellow jacket.
"My beloved concubine is naughty." Qi Yixiu said.
"It's getting late, we should go back." Qi Yixiu said as he pulled Shen Chuliu's hand.
"Then I will respectfully see the Emperor and my sister off." Concubine Li De had no intention of arguing.
Although Mei Baolin was unwilling, he could only bow and see him off respectfully.
"Your Majesty." Mei Baolin stood up only after watching the emperor walk away.
"What's wrong? It's just a coincidence. If you really get close to her, will Concubine Jingxian not slap you?" Concubine Li De smiled and said, "Don't be impatient about anything."
"Yes, Her Majesty Defei is right. I am just... I am young, thank you for your guidance." Mei Baolin lowered her head, her posture very humble.
"Tsk. You don't have to be like that. Who is the emperor? If you really get close to him, will he like it?" Concubine Li De actually doesn't like others hinting that she is old. Who would like that? But there is nothing she can do.
"Okay, let's keep walking. There will be opportunities in the future." Princess Reed said.
Mei Baolin had no choice but to hide her reluctance. How many young concubines could keep their composure? But what if they couldn't keep their composure?
On the other side, after returning to Yufu Palace and washing up and lying on the couch, the emperor asked, "Does my beloved concubine dislike Mei Baolin?"
"I don't like it. I don't like Mei Baolin, I don't like Concubine Li De, I don't like Concubine Qian Shu, I don't like Concubine Ning, I don't like Shun... um..."
Qi Yixiu covered her mouth and said, "You are not telling the truth. Go to sleep."
"Your Majesty, are you okay? Take some medicine." Shen Chuliu muttered after being released.
The emperor ignored her and closed his eyes.
Shen Chuliu also gradually fell asleep.
When paying respects the next morning, Miao Jieyu was in a very delicate situation.
Everyone was talking at the same time, but still refused to let her go.
No one came to her rescue.
No matter how embarrassed she was, she had to endure it. In fact, compared to more than a decade ago, this was already very good.
After all, she is a concubine, and after all, she has a son.
"I heard that the emperor and Sister Jing went to visit the garden last night?" Concubine Ning suddenly asked.
"Yes." Shen Chuliu knew that she had something else to say.
As expected, Concubine Ning said, "Sister Li and Mei Baolin are such a coincidence. Why don't I have the luck to run into the emperor?"
"Isn't it easy for you to run into the emperor? Just wait in the Imperial Garden." Concubine Li De smiled unceremoniously: "After all, I waited all night."
Whether this was true or false, Concubine Ning just smiled.
"What's the point of guarding? Has the emperor seen Mei Baolin? I say, Concubine Li De, you are really promising. You are training young concubines?" Concubine Qian Shu ridiculed her impolitely.
"Look at what you said. At least the emperor is willing to come to my Linhua Palace. I wonder how many years it has been since the emperor last appeared in Fuyang Palace? Oh, that's not right. Didn't Concubine Qianshu dress up and go to Taiji Palace last time? What did she go there for?" Concubine Li De laughed.
"Where are you going? To get scolded?" Shen Chuliu laughed.
"You!" Concubine Qian Shu was extremely angry, but now her status was different and she couldn't get angry just like that.
He had to suppress his anger: "Concubine Jingxian and Concubine Lide have a good relationship. If you don't know, you would think you are as close as sisters. Concubine Jingxian doesn't care about her own sister, but how can she be so close to Concubine Lide?"
"You two are so fake in your acting. You both have teenage princes. Why are you pretending to be good sisters?"
"According to what you mean, those who have sons in the harem cannot be sisters? You should talk to the emperor about this." Shen Chuliu said indifferently.
"Empress Jingxian, you will only look for the emperor for your whole life, right?" Concubine Qianshu became even angrier.
This is really urgent. In fact, Shen Chuliu usually solves problems by himself beforehand...
"What else? I'll go find the emperor. The emperor is willing to listen to me, so why shouldn't I? You're angry. You can go find him too." Shen Chuliu smiled indifferently.
Her principle is to either keep silent or make her angry to death.
Concubine Qian Shu snorted, "Of course I am not as good as Concubine Jing Xian."
These words convey a sense of surrender.
Shen Chuliu didn't say anything else.
After they had quarreled, the queen finally arrived.
Anyway, it's like this all year round when we have nothing to do, we just say a few words and then disperse.
Just as Shen Chuliu was about to get on the carriage, he suddenly heard a noise.
Looking back, I saw that when Mei Xiuyi came out, she was bumped by Yi Jieyu behind her.
I almost fell down.
She raised her eyebrows at that moment: "You are blind!"
She was in a bad mood during these times, so naturally her tone was bad too.
"It's my fault that I didn't see Empress Xiuyi. Please just punish me, Your Majesty." Concubine Yi said as she was about to kneel down.
She was quickly supported by Mei Xiuyi's people: "What are you doing, Concubine? This is Fengzao Palace."
"Even if it's the Taiji Palace, you have to take responsibility if you're wrong, right?" Concubine Yi looked at Mei Xiuyi.
"What are you saying, sister? I only cried out because you hurt me. Okay, okay, how can you be so rude? Go back home." Mei Xiuyi changed her expression faster than turning the pages of a book, and she smiled and pulled Yi Jieyu.
Concubine Yi refused to let her hold her and shook her off: "Since Your Majesty will not punish me, I will leave."
Mei Xiuyi was embarrassed for a moment, but still said with a smile: "Go back, it seems you didn't sleep well."
After reading it, Shen Chuliu got on the sedan chair and walked back.
After returning to Yufu Palace, Zhemei said, "This Concubine Yi is too direct."
"As the saying goes, if you hurt others by a thousand, you will hurt yourself by eight hundred. She hurt others by eight hundred and hurt herself by a thousand." Shen Chuliu said.
Go to sleep.
