Jingxi Palace.
Shufei sat in front of the Buddha statue, silently reciting scriptures and beating the wooden fish.
"Master, Ning Wanyin has really made a big fuss, placing people everywhere..." Zhenzhu reported Ning Wanyin's arrangements.
"Write down all the people she has arranged for you and be careful." Concubine Shu's expression was slightly cold, and she felt irritated no matter how she chanted.
Originally, she had the final say in this palace.
Now there is another Ning Wanyin...
How could she be happy?
And Ning Wanyin had planted so many people in there, obviously she was going to do something big...
"Remind our people that the accounts must be kept clear. Ning is a cautious person, don't let her find out anything..." Concubine Shu ordered.
She was in charge of the harem for three years.
Silver flowed past her eyes like water, so naturally she wanted to catch it.
How many people in this world are not greedy for money?
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The accounts are sent to the Emperor for verification every year. Every account is done very carefully and there will definitely be no problems." Zhenzhu said.
Concubine Shu paused and said, "Take the pigeon soup cooked for His Majesty in the kitchen and follow me to pay respect to His Majesty."
Helian Qi was reviewing memorials.
The concubine Shu was summoned.
Concubine Shu presented a list of palace maids, "These are the palace maids that Sister Ning has recently selected to enter the palace. There are a total of eighty-six of them. Your Majesty, please take a look--"
"You can make your own decisions on this matter." Helian Qi said without raising his head.
Concubine Shu smiled faintly, "Thanks to your majesty's trust, I and Sister Ning are in charge of the affairs of the six palaces. Sister Ning is worthy of her noble family background, and she is very quick and hasty. As soon as she recruited people, she asked them to work in various places... She said that they would learn the palace rules while working..."
"When I was young, I was not as courageous as my younger sister. I always need your Majesty's advice on everything..."
This statement was clearly a compliment to Ning Wanyin...
But every sentence is a trap.
Isn't it the most taboo behavior for the emperor that the nobles send their own people to be placed in the palaces? Besides, Ning Wanyin is young and impatient, so she is bound to make mistakes easily. Unlike her previous life, she would report everything to His Majesty...
But what Concubine Shu didn't know was that Ning Wanyin had already reported it...
"If you feel you are not as good as her, then you should learn more from her." Helian Qi did not even raise his head as he reviewed the memorials.
The smile on Concubine Shu's face froze.
The emperor's irritating mouth! It's so irritating.
But Helian Qi actually trusted Ning Wanyin so much...
It was really unexpected.
Even though the emperor was such a cold and unfeeling person, there was a time when he loved someone so much.
"Your Majesty is right..." Concubine Shu could only maintain a stiff smile on her face and said:
"Winter hunting will begin in a few days. I think Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Ning must go, and Concubine Cen and Concubine Xue will also go. I wonder if Concubine Shun will also go..."
Helian Qi remembered that Ning Wanyin stayed in the palace and did not go out during the last summer hunt.
She doesn't like to go out, and it's so cold today...
Ning Wanyin is very afraid of the cold.
In winter, her palms were cold. When she fell asleep at night, she would always wrap her arms and legs around him...
I usually stay in the warm room, always with a hand warmer in my palm.
But even with such a cold-fearing temperament...
Every time he went to Lingxue Pavilion, Ning Wanyin would be standing at the gate of Yonghe Palace looking in early. Her little face was red from the cold wind, and her eyebrows were slightly curved with a smile.
Helian Qi thought of Ning Wanyin and was distracted for a moment.
Concubine Shu waited quietly by the side.
After a moment, Helian Qi came back to his senses and said, "We'll discuss this later."
"Yes——" Concubine Shu was a little surprised.
In the past, the emperor had always made decisions based on his own temperament. What else should he consider now?
…
That day, Helian Qi turned over Ning Wanyin's sign.
As usual, Lingxue Pavilion began preparations in the afternoon...
Ning Wanyin has never been negligent in welcoming the emperor.
It was the first time for the newly arrived palace maids such as Pengqin to see such a scene, but they were all familiar with their master's temper, and following her instructions, they arranged everything in an orderly manner.
At dusk, the emperor and his concubine sat opposite each other on the windowsill.
"You, the newly recruited palace maid, are quite knowledgeable about the rules." Helian Qi glanced at the newcomer in the room and said casually.
Ning Wanyin smiled lightly, "There is one more thing I need your Majesty's help with. Can you please remember these two maids in front of the emperor..."
She was promoted to Zhaoyi and had four more palace maids.
But there are two more people...
"These two maids are both experienced. Although I am not pregnant yet, I am looking forward to it. I have made all the preparations in advance. If I ever have this blessing..." Ning Wanyin lowered her eyes, her eyes full of shyness.
She didn't trust the midwives in the palace, even if they were the emperor's woman.
Helian Qi's eyes unconsciously fell on Ning Wanyin's belly. He doted on Ning Wanyin the most, but she had never been able to get pregnant.
Perhaps it was because she had a cold body that she had difficulty having children.
Helian Qi was not anxious about her pregnancy, but seeing how much she was looking forward to it, he nodded and said:
"Let Wang Degui record them in front of the emperor."
"By the way, do you want to go to the winter hunt?"
Ning Wanyin was really surprised this time.
Helian Qi has always been a dictatorial person. He doesn't consider other people's opinions at all, he just wants to be happy.
He would take along those he liked, or those with whom he had a beneficial arrangement.
Consider whether a concubine wants to go to such a thing...
It's really rare.
Just like the last time during the summer hunt, he didn't consider Ning Wanyin's thoughts...
But now he actually asked.
Ning Wanyin keenly noticed a slight difference in the way the emperor treated her.
Care about her thoughts and feelings.
