"I wonder if Your Majesty has any important instructions for you since you have come here suddenly?" Ning Wanyin asked.
Helian Qi said, "I heard that a female doctor was sent to Yonghe Palace."
Wang Degui quickly expressed his concern on behalf of the emperor, "His Majesty thought that you were injured, so he rushed here in a hurry!"
"Your Majesty, you misunderstood. My cousin was playing with the parrot here and accidentally fell down." Ning Wanyin said slowly:
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am indeed fine. I dare not delay Your Majesty's affairs, so please rest assured."
The implication is that you can leave now.
Wang Degui was stunned. Ah? There is someone like you, Empress Chen? Others would be so happy to be invited by His Majesty that they would not rush out.
Helian Qi keenly noticed that Ning Wanyin was a little unhappy, and said:
"I happen to be free today."
"Then you go and see Xier." Ning Wanyin said lightly.
Helian Qi: ...
When he went to the concubines' palace and had nothing to say to the concubines, he would say, "I'm going to see the prince/princess."
As a result, in Yonghe Palace, it was not his turn to say this.
Helian Qi thought about it. He didn't offend Ning Wanyin. If he really wanted to investigate, there was only one thing...
He was extremely kind to Xiao Yunyao.
But in the past, Ning Wanyin would never get angry with him because of such things.
"Wanwan doesn't want to see me? Then I won't come." Helian Qi raised his eyebrows and said deliberately.
"What's the use of thinking about it? I thought Your Majesty and I were in love with each other, but now the new one is better than the old one, and you treat her better than I do in every way. There is really no need for me to come to Yonghe Palace in the future." There was a hint of resentment in Ning Wanyin's words.
What this means is that the emperor has Xiao Yunyao and Ning Wanyin has been replaced.
This is what many people think.
Ning Wanyin didn't think so, but she had to say it.
You can't possibly guess the emperor's plans, can you? You can't possibly be indifferent when the emperor has a new favorite and calmly say that you will work with her to rule the harem.
She loves the emperor so deeply, it would be fake if she didn't feel jealous when faced with such a big "threat".
But the emperor could not personally understand the feeling of a jealous woman. He would only take it for granted that as a concubine, you can have a little temper, but you must also be virtuous, generous and sensible.
It’s not good not to be jealous, but it’s also not good to be too jealous.
Ning Wanyin also has to consider the balance between being jealous and not being jealous.
"I never intended to do so." Helian Qi denied, "You are the one I love the most. No one else can compare to you."
This is the truth.
Ning Wanyin looked at him with tears in her eyes, "Really?"
"Of course." Helian Qi nodded affirmatively. He didn't expect that his love for Xiao Yunyao would make Ning Wanyin misunderstand that he wanted to replace the old one with a new one...
"Some time ago, Southeast China paid tribute to us with a box of exotic pigeon blood rubies. I specially ordered the imperial craftsman to make you a set of red gold and red pomegranate jewelry. I was planning to give you a surprise on Xi'er's first birthday next month. Wang Degui, go to the storehouse and get it immediately."
Wang Degui took the order.
Ning Wanyin's cheeks showed a faint smile, and she was immediately coaxed: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
It seemed that as long as she was sure that the emperor still cared about her, she would be happy.
Helian Qi felt much better when he saw the smile on her face. He wanted to promote Xiao Yunyao, but he never thought of letting her replace Ning Wanyin.
Continued:
"I remember that your grandmother's three-year prayer for the country is coming to an end. The abbot of the pagoda told me that your grandmother is a very blessed person and it would be great if she could pray for the country for another three years. So I have written an edict and asked Wang Degui to pick an auspicious day to go to the pagoda to announce it."
He remembered everything about Ning Wanyin and made arrangements to handle her affairs.
Ning Wanyin had been planning to bring this up with the Emperor recently, but she didn't expect His Majesty had already prepared...
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Being able to pray for Dayan is a blessing for my grandmother and the Ning family!" Ning Wanyin bowed to express her gratitude.
Finally, he looked at Helian Qi, his cheeks slightly red:
"Your Majesty cares for me so much, I am deeply grateful. Your Majesty is the ruler of the world, I understand everything. As long as Your Majesty has a place for me in his heart, I will stay in Yonghe Palace and wait for Your Majesty to return."
As long as you have me in your heart, I will remain devoted to you.
This is exactly what the emperor wants from a concubine who loves him deeply and is virtuous and tolerant.
Men in this world don't know that loving someone truly can't do this. But it doesn't matter, she can play both.
Helian Qi reached out and held Ning Wanyin's hand, and said firmly: "You will always be the first person in my heart, and no one will ever replace you."
The misunderstanding between the two was resolved and the atmosphere became harmonious.
The palace maids placed dishes on the table.
The two had lunch together.
Ning Wanyin took the initiative to say, "There are 24 departments in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Concubine Kang and I are in charge of 12 each. Now that His Majesty has Concubine Xu Hui assisting in the management of the six palaces, I will tell Concubine Kang to give her four departments each."
Although Concubine Kang has always been diligent.
But Ning Wanyin didn't trust outsiders, so it was impossible for them to be in charge of the same place with her.
The two of them were in charge of half of the work, and they were responsible for each other. They also took turns arranging banquets in the palace.
Of course, there are important and unimportant offices in the twenty-four offices. Ning Wanyin controls the most important offices.
"There's no need to do that. Let Hui Zhaoyi learn from Kangpin and work with her." Helian Qi said.
He didn't want Xiao Yunyao to share Ning Wanyin's power, but planned to let Xiao Yunyao replace Kangpin.
Kangpin was the person he specially picked to help Ning Wanyin when she was pregnant...
But now we need someone to check and balance Ning Wanyin, and Concubine Kang is not suitable.
His favorite candidate is Xiao Yunyao.
"Everything is up to your majesty to arrange." Ning Wanyin readily followed suit.
Since the emperor had already made arrangements, she didn't say much.
