Chapter 356
This time out of the palace, Consort Wei Xian only left one female officer to guard the Ling Bo Hall, and brought all the other female officers with her
-Another dozen or so palace maids were brought over to serve the daily living
As the sky darkened, palace lights were lit in all the chambers of the palace, bright as day
Ling Jingshu and Xinyun led the palace maids to clean the chambers and settle the luggage, and they were busy until the eleventh hour
After a busy day, her hands and feet were so tired that she didn’t even have the strength to talk
Head just dipped into the pillow and fell asleep
A night without dreams, sleep is very sweet
The next morning, when the sky just dawned, Ling Jingshu got up as usual
In the end, the young base is good, a night’s rest over, yesterday’s fatigue and sleepiness disappeared, still in high spirits
When Consort Wei Xian saw Ling Jingshu, she couldn’t help but smile and sigh, “The Palace sat in the carriage for a day yesterday, and after a night’s rest, I’m still quite tired
Seeing how you look so radiant, this palace really has to admit old age”
The best time in a woman’s life was only a few years
In the blink of an eye, she had already passed her thirties
Among the concubines in the palace, she was still considered young, and it was only in front of Ling Jingshu, who was as delicate as a flower, that she was shocked to realize that she was growing older by the day
Ling Jingshu dumbfounded: “Your Highness was born with a flowery face and a dusty temperament, and looked at the most like a double ten years old, how can it look old
-How can you look old?” “Everyone loves to hear good words
Wei Xianfei stretched her eyebrows and raised the corners of her lips, “Or you are the most good at talking, the most good at coaxing people to be happy”
Xin Yun chimed in, “Ever since Jingshu came, the person that the empress has loved the most is her
The slave girl has been serving the Queen for so many years, but she is not as good as Jingshu
This is exactly how one hears the newcomers laugh, but not the old ones cry”
Concubine Wei Xian was amused and laughed: “When did this palace stop hurting you!
The other day also rewarded you with a pair of red gold bracelets, each of which weighs three taels
Now you come to curry favor, the Palace will not be soft to reward you
There are good things, but also save the reward to the obedient and well-behaved one”
The obedient and well-behaved one, of course, was Ling Jingshu
Ling Jingshu pursed her lips, her eyes filled with smiles
Being an errand boy at Consort Wei Xian’s side, she was busy, but it was fulfilling and happy
Consort Wei Xian treats people kindly, never puts on airs, and treats her extraordinarily generously
All of this, not only because of Wei Xianfei and her original affection, there is also Wei Yan’s sake in it
On this point, Xin Yun is also unspoken
Saying a few words under her breath was just teasing and joking
After having breakfast, Consort Wei Xian led Xin Yun Ling Jingshu to go to the Emperor to ask for peace
-When she was in the palace, Ling Jingshu was lucky to avoid going to the Purple Palace
Now that she is in the palace, Wei Xianfei does not have a lot of manpower around her, and it would be unreasonable for her to not follow this personal female officer
Outside the Emperor’s chambers, she happened to run into several other young concubines who came to pay their respects
The concubines were sitting together, and they were talking back and forth
On such occasions, it was not Ling Jingshu’s turn to speak, all she had to do was stand quietly behind Consort Wei Xian
Ling Jingshu lowered her eyebrows and restrained her face without saying a word
The light green slender figure and the flawless face with picturesque eyebrows were hard to ignore
Zhang Zhaoyi swept her eyes over Ling Jingshu’s pretty face and laughed, ”Empress Xianfei was born in a beautiful country, and even the female officials around her are exceptionally beautiful and touching
Not to mention His Majesty, even my concubine looks at it and finds it pleasing to the eyes”
This kind of verbal provocation, in these few months, Ling Jingshu did not know how much she had heard
She is just a female officer, she can’t fight with the concubines in the palace, so she just pretends to be a barking dog and turns a deaf ear to it
Wei Xianfei’s eyes flickered slightly, faintly smiled: ”Lady Ling was originally the Emperor’s side, it was the Palace that had the cheek to ask her to come over
This palace appreciates people who work seriously and carefully, and does not care about how they look
Zhang Zhaoyi said this kind of words, but let the Palace does not understand
Could it be that Zhang Zhao Yi is suggesting that the Palace has bad intentions and intends to let the people around her show their faces in front of the Emperor to compete for favor?”
Saying the last sentence, her voice had already chilled
Zhang Zhao Yi’s face changed slightly
Consort Wei Xian’s temper had always been mild, never offending anyone in the palace
So good-tempered that people forgot that she was now the Empress Xianfei who was deeply respected by the Emperor!
She also relied on this, and her words were a bit more unrestrained
Unexpectedly, Wei Xianfei immediately turned coldYour Highness is mistaken
I have absolutely no such intention”
A cold sweat broke out slightly on Zhang Zhaoyi’s forehead, and she was busy squeezing out a smile, “I was only joking casually just now, Your Highness must not take it to heart”
She also squeezed out a smile and said to Ling Jingshu, “Lady Ling thought that she wouldn’t take this little joke to heart either!”
Only then did Ling Jingshu raise her head and gave a slight blessing to Zhang Zhao Yi, “Your Highness Zhao Yi just said something, the slave girl did not pay attention
There is no need for Empress Zhao Yi to be concerned”
Wei Xianfei was supporting her like this, so she naturally had to act tougher, lest she fail Wei Xianfei’s intentions
When Zhang Zhao Yi heard Ling Jingshu’s softly sarcastic response, her smile became more and more stiff
Unfortunately, this was not a place for her to show off, so she had to swallow this sulk even if she didn’t
Consort Wei Xian looked at her coldly for a moment before she faintly opened her mouth and said, “It’s just a small matter, no need to mention it again”
Zhang Zhaoyi was relieved, the next extraordinarily honest and peaceful, no longer dare to provoke at will
With Zhang Zhao Yi’s example in front, a few other concubines of a lower level of interest to keep their mouths shut, a time quiet a lot
After waiting for half an hour, His Majesty came out of the bedchamber
Yan Wang lived with the Emperor last night, and at this time also rightfully accompanied the Emperor’s side
While assisting the Emperor’s arm, he said, ”Yesterday was exhausting and tiring, Father will stay in the bedchamber today!
If you are too bored, call the musicians to play music, and let the songstresses offer songs and dances to relieve your boredom how?”
That handsome face is full of concern, a sincere
The emperor looked in his eyes and could not help but be moved, smiled and nodded his head, “Good, I will listen to you”
Over the past six months, the Emperor spent almost all of his time on his bed
Yan Wang left everything behind and accompanied him every day, personally taking care of his clothes, food, and living, being filial and considerate in every way
Even drinking medicine, Yan Wang also insisted on personally testing the medicine for him, a piece of filial piety, touching
People are not grass and trees, who can have no feelings!
What’s more, Yan Wang is his favorite young son, since childhood, he has favored some extra
This half a year’s time spent together, even more so, father and son feelings close and harmonious
The emperor is older, no longer young decisive and wise, the heart is also much softer than when young
To favor the young son, but also more and more gentle and generous up
The king of Yan’s proposal, almost never refuted
This time to the palace to stay, also listened to the Yan Wang’s advice
