Wang Yunhe sat in the cubicle and copied, sitting straight in front of the desk, waist straight, arms hanging in the air, pen in hand, pen nib, stroke by stroke, orderly model, as if printed out. It didn't look like cursive script could move a dragon or a snake.
When Zhu Yijun came over, Wang Rong had sensed something too, but after copying a piece in his hand, he finally raised his head and smiled. Your Majesty woke up from his nap? "
"The calligraphy is so good that I can't bear to burn the last piece of paper. When the temple is about to replace it with a new book, send it to the buddhist temple outside. One more sacrifice is also your merit." Zhu Yijun said.
"Whatever Your Majesty says." Wang Rong He said that after seeing that Zhu Yijun had read the scriptures and then sat on the opposite side to rest, she did not bother to pay attention to him anymore. He smiled at him, and started to concentrate on copying the scriptures.
Zhu Yijun just looked at them for a quarter of an hour and let Wang Rong rest for a while. Wang Rong told him that she was counting the time in her heart, so Zhu Yijun said to the palace maid, "Watching the Empress, resting more is not an urgent matter, so we can slowly copy it."
Then he said, "We will go to the Imperial Consort Yi Palace and return there immediately."
Wang Rong He looked up at him and smiled, "Mm, Your Majesty can go now."
Zhu Yijun came over and said, "Don't wait for us to leave, I will secretly shed tears."
"Go, your Imperial Majesty." Wang Rong He looked up and said, "His Majesty said yesterday that he wanted to eat a pot. Today, I had Shang Dong to prepare some food. Your Majesty should come back early."
Zhu Yijun smiled as he touched her face before he left.
Wang Rong smiled as she watched his back figure disappear at the door. She heard His Majesty exclaiming outside the door, "Don't call me chariot. I will walk there and have some fun." Wang Rong smiled and shook her head, she knew that he was stalling for time on the road.
Some things don't need to be said, but we all know it. For example, she was willing to copy the scripture without saying anything. For example, the Emperor knew that she had to go to the imperial harem to copy it, which could also be considered as mother's response to having her copy it. His Majesty no longer had the same feelings towards the mother as before, but if he did not think much of it, it did not mean that the Empress did not.
Right now, the mother did not have any ways to deal with his majesty, but punishing her was an easy task. Zhu Yijun did not want to make things difficult for her, so he had to give in.
His Majesty must have thought of this as well, as much as he thought of her proof.
Wang Rong and the scripture that was placed before them, as for His Majesty saying that he would take a seat, that was that. If he did not believe that, then the two of them would not die a good death.
Since His Majesty wanted to go to the palace, naturally, someone had already informed the Imperial Consort Yi beforehand. Since it was his first time in the imperial harem, his first time there, so it was his first time here. The palace maid s of the palace all looked like they had the honor of being here, and if they wanted to dress the Imperial Consort Yi up carefully, the Imperial Consort Yi did not stop them, and since they were all dressed up like saints, as long as it was only the empress, no one should learn about it.
"Go get Princess Zhao Yi." The Imperial Consort Yi said.
"Empress, it is rare for Your Majesty to come. Furthermore, Princess Zhao Yi is currently in the Changchun Palace, and she has seen your majesty quite a few times. The palace maid advised.
"You can go if I tell you to." Imperial Consort Yi said that the servants could be obedient and not make any mistakes. For some stupid things, she was too lazy to teach them. In terms of favor, she did not pick anyone from the harem. The only thing she had a good relationship with was the empress, and often helped the empress manage some palace affairs. If the emperor really wanted to bring someone to the harem for a visit, then the person she wanted to meet would definitely choose the Imperial Noble Consort Zheng and Imperial Noble Consort Zheng first.
It was obvious that His Majesty only wanted to visit the imperial harem, which was why he had chosen her.
The Imperial Consort Yi knew that the Emperor had walked over and was welcoming him at the entrance of the palace. There were a few nobles staying at the entrance of the palace and some of them would come over to welcome him, but the Imperial Consort Yi didn't kick them out. After welcoming them at the entrance, the Imperial Consort Yi laughed and said, "Your Majesty, I planted a few hibiscus stalks last year and they opened very well this year.
"Sure." Zhu Yijun said as they surrounded the flower beds in front of the small flat area of the ZhongTian Palace to comment on the flowers, only then did Imperial Consort Yi invite his majesty to enter the palace. Once inside the palace, he stopped the nobles who still had to follow him, "His Majesty didn't summon them, so the esteemed wangfei shouldn't go in." Why are you so blind?
The little nobles looked at each other, saying that they couldn't move even if they wanted to. It was too difficult for them to see the emperor, and since they had already met the emperor, how could they be willing to leave like that? The biggest nobleman said to the palace maid, "Then we'll wait here, until the emperor leaves, then we can send him off."
The palace maid was very obedient, but she still frowned. What kind of words were they saying, that his Majesty was already waiting for his majesty to leave? It was still a palace maid who came out from the inside. The person who came pulled her sleeve and said, "You go in first."
The palace maid smiled gently and said, "Is it not appropriate for the empress to stand here? "If you're afraid that you won't make it in time, why don't you go to the side hall and sit down for a bit. The servants and maids can open the windows, so that the Empress can see what's going on outside. How about that?"
The nobles could only follow the palace maid to the side hall. When they looked back at the main hall, they were still reluctant to part.
After going to the Inner Palace to serve tea, Zhu Yijun saw an unfinished chess board, "You were playing chess just now?"
"The Empress knows that I like to play chess, so she specially found an ancient chess book for me to share. When I was free, I would play with it for the sake of His Majesty." The Imperial Consort Yi said.
"She doesn't like to play chess herself, so it would be hard for her to specifically look for it for you." Zhu Yijun said, "The two of you have a relationship just based on your Chuxiu Palace. The empress is not unkind to you, you better not disappoint her."
"I won't." The Imperial Consort Yi said.
"Then let's have two sets." Zhu Yijun said, saving the embarrassment of finding words to say. Zhu Yijun had played chess pretty well, after all, he had played chess since young, and it was rare for the Imperial Consort Yi to be so equally matched with him.
"Imperial Consort Yi's chess skills have increased." Zhu Yijun said, "When I get back, I will ask the Empress to find me a chess piece."
"His Majesty is very busy every day, playing chess is just a diversion. "I have nothing to do for a long time. I spend my time on the chessboard. If I still haven't made any progress, then I might as well not play chess anymore. I don't have that kind of brain." Imperial Consort Yi laughed.
"Zhao Yi is here." After a round, Imperial Consort Yi looked at the side and said.
Zhu Yijun just realized that the person holding the teacup at the side was Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi's lucky body. Greetings to father, greetings to mother. "
"Has Zhao Yi learned chess from your mother?" Zhu Yijun asked.
"I only just recognized the rules, now it's just playing Go." Zhao Yi said.
"Wuzi is not the same thing as this one. Don't let your mother take you astray." Zhu Yijun laughed and said, "Your mother's chess skills are so good, it's a pity that you didn't learn it."
You want Zhao Yi to exchange two blows with His Majesty?" Yi Fei said, "I learned chess from reading chess books, so I'm not very good at teaching others. I said something that Zhao Yi didn't understand, so I couldn't bear to say it. I might as well play chess with her, but chess isn't easy either.
"Chess, what's important is one's state of mind. How can one not be patient?" Zhu Yijun said as he gestured for Zhao Yi to sit across him. He really taught Zhao Yi meticulously, so the Imperial Consort Yi smiled and watched by the side, not saying a word.
In truth, Zhao Yi had long since started learning how to play chess, so she understood everything Zhu Yijun said easily. It gave Zhu Yijun a sense of accomplishment of being a teacher, and repeatedly praised Zhao Yi's intelligence.
"Your Majesty, it's getting late. Is Your Majesty going to stay for dinner?" Imperial Consort Yi noticed the time and asked His Majesty.
Zhu Yijun looked at the sky outside, "No, the Empress is still waiting for us to return. It's getting late, so we will be leaving."
"I'll send you off, your Majesty." The Imperial Consort Yi said.
When the and Zhao Yi saw the Emperor out of the palace, the nobles watched him stay in the inner palace for a longer time and thought that he wasn't leaving easily, that he was using the time as a snack. By now, the Emperor had come out, his attitude was indecent, and he couldn't go out to send him off, all they could do was watch as Imperial Consort Yi and Princess Zhao Yi saw him off, and when he returned, he glanced at the side hall once, and didn't say anything as he entered the hall. The nobles only felt a burning pain on their faces.
Zhao Yi held onto Imperial Consort Yi's hand, and carefully looked at her expression, "mother, aren't you sad?"
"Why should I be sad?" The Imperial Consort Yi laughed, "I'm still afraid that if His Majesty doesn't leave, our mother will feel uncomfortable eating with him."
"father is different from mother, does mother not care at all?" Zhao Yi pouted.
"It is only natural that His Majesty would not be close to me, but it is strange that he would be close to me. It is enough that His Majesty is able to come to the Palace from time to time and visit them." The Imperial Consort Yi said.
"mother, if you and your mother aren't as good, will you become more active in chasing after the father's love?" asked, she thought about this question for a long time, mother was originally one of the three choices, it could be said that she had been graceful ever since she entered the palace, and had steadily ascended to the throne.
However, the mother had never had any thoughts of fighting for the affection of others. Since the father came, she accepted it, and when the father didn't come, she didn't think about it anymore.
It was completely unlike other mother s, where the concubines, hairpins, and embroidered shoes all spoke of their desire for the father, let alone those pairs of eyes brimming with ambition.
"Then what do you think the reason why the second wife is fighting for a favor is?" Imperial Consort Yi did not feel that it was appropriate to say that Zhao Yi thought of these questions. She was already born in the royal family and had seen much before.
Zhao Yi shook her head. She thought about a few aspects of it, but felt that it was crude. She couldn't possibly say that if others were fighting over a favor, why wouldn't you?
"Place?" Treatment? " The Imperial Consort Yi looked at Zhao Yi without saying a word and said, "Could it be that my current position is not well treated? You still don't know that Imperial Consort Guo is an old man of the palace. Earlier, when she was acting so arrogantly, the Empress was still Imperial Consort Candidate at that time. She was always throwing a tantrum, and was extremely detestable. When the Empress thinks of me, she will have a share of my share in the palace. I don't even need to serve Her Majesty to have such a situation, why would I have to spend so much effort to please her majesty? Perhaps, she might have suffered from her majesty's loathing and was unable to even keep her current peaceful life. "
"Only two of His Majesty's favors are personally related. As for the others, they are related." The Imperial Consort Yi shook her head and said, "The people from the post-palace maid are just entertainment to His Majesty. It would be too pathetic if they did not wish for Your Majesty to treat such a small amount of entertainment together with them, or treat their love of entertainment as love."
"You are different from mother." Imperial Consort Yi took Zhao Yi's hand and said, "You are a princess, a prince in the sky. When you grow up and get married, you will have a prince consort. If you let Prince Consort only have one woman, then you can make him only have one woman, and the two of them can hold the case together. From the start of their life, this is mother's wish. "
"But, isn't it jealous to have a woman?" Zhao Yi whispered.
"Don't believe what those sour men said. For their own good, they have three wives and four concubines. They even want your wife to be magnanimous." Imperial Consort Yi said, "Wife will help them manage the household chores, filial piety for the elderly, bear the pain of having children, and even push her husband to someone else. If she refuses, then she will be crowned as an unvirtuous person. "Those people are just pretending to be human."
"The Imperial Consort Yi looked at Zhao Yi lovingly," Women of this world live a very bitter life. You are a princess. There will always be people who will do that sort of thing so that the millions of women in the future will know that they can do that sort of thing.
"It's not a woman's jealousy, but a man's conscience."
"I don't know if I can do it." Zhao Yi said, "If others came to persuade me, I might have done it. If Prince Consort doesn't like me, I, I will let others serve him."
"You're still young, you don't need to think about these things right now. If it really comes to those things, you can just go with your heart. " Imperial Consort Yi touched her forehead and said, "Rong Chang will marry in front of you, if you think that anything is up to you, you can just wait and see what she does, then think about what you should do."
When Zhu Yijun returned to his Qixiang Palace, the pot on the table was already releasing steam, the entire room was filled with its fragrance, "Why is this pot transparent?" Zhu Yijun asked while looking at the strange scene.
"It's made of glass. The soup is pure. When I put down the pills, I'll see the ingredients boiling and floating in the water. It's quite interesting." Wang Rong He came to welcome him, "Has His Majesty sweated? Do you want to change your clothes? "
"Even if you want to eat the pot later, you'll have to sweat later. Why don't you change it after you've finished eating?" Zhu Yijun said.
"Then I'll take a hot handkerchief and wipe it for His Majesty." Wang Rong He said.
"Zhao Yi is in the Stellar Palace and should only return after she has eaten dinner. It's boring for Rong Chang to eat alone here at the Changchun Palace, so please let her come over to eat as well." Zhu Yijun thought.
"Alright." Wang Rong said, and asked the palace maid to invite Princess Rong Chang over. She wasn't surprised that the Imperial Consort Yi would call Zhao Yi over when her Majesty was making a rare trip to the Zenith City. Her heart, ah, was clear from the very beginning.
