Chapter 6 Sympathize with them
Chapter 6 Sympathize with them
Concubine Hui was so angry that she laughed, "Are you still plotting against me? It's Baoqing who is brainless, not me!" If she was brainless, she wouldn't have been able to do something decisive to save Yinzhi after all her children died, and she wouldn't have been able to protect her eldest son Yinzhi after he returned to the palace!
Even now, Wei is still plotting against her!
"Do you think everyone is stupider than you? It's easy to die if you want to. Go back to your room and die however you want. Don't dirty my land. I'm reminding you for the sake of our past friendship. If you don't care about the Wei family and Yinsi, then you can do whatever you want." Concubine Hui waved her hand, "Go down."
Wei wanted to say something, but Concubine Hui closed her eyes and didn't want to talk anymore. After Wei left, the nanny beside Concubine Hui rubbed her shoulders and said, "Master, why do you still want to remind Wei? The mother and son of the Wei family are ungrateful. Just let them fend for themselves."
"Mammy, by then, it will be my fault. The most feared thing in the harem is not how serious the crime is but losing the emperor's heart. I just said that even if those things were spread by Wei, I would be confined, but the emperor would think that I have a kind heart and can still give Wei some advice at this time," Hui Fei exhaled heavily, "Wei Shi wants to be the second De Fei. Even if others allow it, how can our De Fei allow it?"
In the dark night, Concubine Hui glanced at the candlelight, then stood up and walked towards her bedroom.
The moonlight gradually submerged in the western edge along with the bright moon. A breeze blew, carrying a hint of earthy scent. As a ray of light rose from the junction of heaven and earth in the east, Yinzhen and Wen Yao had already arrived at the Yuehua Gate on the southwest side of the Qianqing Palace and were waiting.
It was still early morning court time, and after the court session, all the ministers would come out from Qianqing Gate, so Yinzhen and Wen Yao were waiting at Yuehua Gate.
Wen Yao looked at the sky and said, "We still have to wait in the middle of winter. They said we would be here later!"
Yinzhen glanced at Wen Yao. Was he willing to come here and endure the cold? He had to pay his respects to the Emperor on time? He would definitely be scolded to death by the Emperor, and he might even be accused by the ministers and the Emperor's concubines of not being a good parent.
[However, think about those old ministers, they have to get up early in the morning before dawn at such an old age, and they have to work all year round. It's depressing to think about it! ] Wen Yao suddenly felt that the officials in ancient times were not necessarily that good, but it was true that they were better than ordinary people!
[Sympathize with them, (*^▽^*)] Wen Yao expressed sympathy, but that did not prevent her from gloating over their misfortune.
Yinzhen really didn't know how to complain, really! Yinzhen wanted to grab his wife's shoulders and ask, if you sympathize with those old ministers, can you put away the gloating expression on your face!
Yinzhen knew at a glance that his wife must have gotten up early because he did, so seeing these ministers getting up early every day, the comparison was clear. How could she not comfort herself by gloating over their misfortune?
Yinzhen thought about it and felt that it would not be too late to pay his respects in the backyard later. Yinzhen was looking forward to his wife’s expression at that time. But after a moment, Yinzhen frowned and said, “Wait a minute!”
Following this logic, Yinzhen looked at his wife who was looking at him strangely, "The people in the backyard will pay their respects to you in the future, and you should set some rules for them at that time." Yinzhen decided to take action first and never give his wife a chance to be lazy!
[Damn!!! Sure enough, he has bad intentions! I was wondering why he was laughing so sinisterly just now, it turns out he can't sleep in, and he has to drag me along! How hateful! No wonder the old people say everyone will flee when disaster strikes, right? Otherwise, it will be so frustrating! Want to share the good and bad times? Impossible! Don't even think about it!] Wen Yao's mind worked quickly, "I know that my sisters have worked hard to serve you, so you should pay your respects on the first and fifteenth of every month, and I will also set up the rules for the backyard."
A hint of understanding flashed across Yin'er's eyes. Sure enough, he was waiting here!
"When the royal family and the imperial concubines pay their respects to each other, it's always on the fifth day. You shortened it to two days? And they are tired of serving me? Are you sure it's not me who is tired?" Yinzhen felt that his wife was confusing right and wrong. "Besides, how can they serve me?"
Yinzhen's ears turned red and he turned his head away from looking at his wife. He was not a chaste man. There were so many princesses in his previous life, but none of them could always stand by his side. He thought that except for his eldest brother, the children of other brothers died one after another in the backyard. In contrast, only his eldest brother doted on his eldest sister-in-law, which was different from his other brothers, because the other brothers all doted on their concubines first, after all, their concubines were by their side first!
Although my sister-in-law is gone now...
So he only talked about poetry and songs with the few people in his backyard under the flowers and moon, but they were limited to talking about poetry and songs under the flowers and moon!
Ahem...it doesn't necessarily mean poetry or songs, it's just a description!
Qian Bao, the eunuch who was close to Yinzhen, ran over from a distance and said, "Master, Fu Jin, I saw the ministers walking out. They must be leaving the court."
[Isn't this nonsense? What good can a minister who walks out of the court do? He must have been forced to walk out!] Wen Yao couldn't help but complain.
Originally Yinzhen wanted to say that the emperor would send a servant to notify him soon, but he was criticized by his own wife. He didn't want to say anything now because he felt that he would definitely retort!
But why would his own wife look at him?
[You won't say anything? What? You have nothing to say to your wife right after your wedding? ] Wen Yao thought, whoever said that Lao Jiu has a sharp tongue, he has no tongue!
Yinzhen: ...No matter what you say, you are always right!
"The Emperor will send someone over soon," Yinzhen decided to say.
"Yes, Master," Wen Yao answered straightforwardly, [Can't you just say it, it won't be cold in a while or something? I'm not a fool, your wife. I've already left the court, can the Emperor not see your unruly son? ]
Yinzhen was so angry that he almost questioned Wenyao, what does a bear son mean! He is a dragon son! Bah!
What a dragon son!
He is the Ninth Prince!
He knew that no matter what he said, he would be criticized. It is true that only villains and women are difficult to raise, and the old saying is right.
Zhai Lin came hurriedly, bowing slightly, "Good luck to the Ninth Prince, good luck to the Ninth Lady. The Emperor invites the Ninth Prince and the Ninth Lady to the Qianqing Palace."
"No need to be so polite," Yinzhen raised his hand, "Chief Executive Zhai, please lead the way."
"Yes," Zhai Lin nodded slightly, turned around and walked ahead.
Yinzhen and Wenyao followed closely behind. Yinzhen whispered in Wenyao's ear: "Zhai Lin is one of the three chief stewards of the Jingshifang, along with Liang Jiugong and Wei Zhu. Now Zhai Lin and Liang Jiugong are the chief attendants, and Wei Zhu is the chief attendant."
Wen Yao whispered, "Which one has a higher rank? Wei Zhu?" She was extremely confused. [Jingshifang? Isn't that where the eunuchs... operate on the third leg? And isn't Liang Jiugong the most favored? The head servant should be the highest rank, right?]
Yinzhen glanced at his wife several times and decided that he would have a good talk with her when he returned, otherwise something bad would happen sooner or later. What did the Jingshifang mean by using a knife?
That's the silkworm room!
