The fight stopped suddenly.
"Yunxi?"
Huanan Xin was stunned and seemed to be unbelievable until the door of the hall opened. Gu Yunxi entered lightly in a lake blue skirt embroidered with three treasures, lotus leaves, and tassels. Then his eyes were as bright as snow, with unspeakable surprises.
The young emperor stretched out his hand and trembled with excitement.
"Come on, let her in!"
It was time to meet Gu Yunxi. Huanan Jiyan was so nervous.
After calming her mind, she looked at Lu Qiange silently.
"Yunxi?"
Huanan Xin was so excited that when the graceful figure crossed the threshold, he strode forward.
"How did you get out of Jingyang Palace? It's almost noon. Is it hot outside? Do you feel better?"
There were a series of warm greetings. He was meticulous, and there was a keen affection in his eyes.
Gu Yunxi was wearing a bright lake bl
The sun was shining high, and there were all kinds of carriages in the empty field in front of the door outside Miaoyin Hall.The imperial concubines followed Noble Concubine Hui into the hall. They sat on the armchairs one by one with dry mouths, humming."Oh, what's the matter? I got up at four o'clock in the morning to dress up. I haven't eaten yet."Jieyu Jiang held a honey-colored handkerchief with her thin white fingers, pressed it on her chest, bowed her head, and retched twice.Concubine Liang sitting opposite her saw the scene, raised her eyebrows wisely, pretended to make a fuss, covered her mouth and nose, and exclaimed, "Oh, sister, what's the matter? Are you pregnant?"Jieyu Jiang's face turned red and her anger was unbearable."You can really tease me. His Majesty hasn't been to my Feihong Hall for half a year. How can I be pregnant?""I'm just kidding. You can't tell?"
In the palace, Gu Yunxi wrapped a boiled egg with the clean handkerchief, carefully rolling it on Zhiqi's face.Previously, Zhiqi had served Concubine Yu, Gu Yunyao in Jingyang Palace. When Gu Yunxi's face was changed into the original appearance, she often went into the Palace and visited Gu Yunyao. Hence, Gu Yunxi once saw Zhiqi several times.Zhiqi sat on a chair, seeing every decoration and furniture in the Palace with sad eyes. She described the past things in a crying voice."As soon as I come back to here, I am always reminded of the day when I served Her Grace, Concubine Yu. In that year, she went to the Jiangnan Feudatory together with the Seventh Prince. But she could only take Lord Zhao and Song Qin away, so that we were sent to other palaces and took tasks there. Today I fortunately come across you. If I meet others, I must have been beat to death."Hearing that, Gu Yunxi was sympathetic in mind. She took the saf
"Who are you talking about?"Instantly, Gu Yunxi astonishedly stood up from the chair. In her eyes, the clear waves spread, making the eyes darker and deeper.Her numb heart which had been frozen long suddenly convulsed. When her whole body seemed to be struck by thunder, she was stunned.Huanan He...She was so familiar with the name which hadn't been heard long. It was just like the shackle of fate, twisting around her heart so that they couldn't be apart."Huanan He... Huanan He!"Gu Yunxi muttered in a sad voice, as tears were going to flood from her swollen eyes. But she tried to refrain so that she wouldn't easily shed tears."Is the man you have talked about... Huanan He?"Zhiqi was astonished, subconsciously nodding and lowering her eyebrows. She didn't know which word she said was wrong and made Gu Yunxi sad."Your Grace, the Ninth Prince's name is Hua
Having walked out of the bedroom, Gu Yunxi saw five women in the hall. Two were sitting and three were standing, talking about something in a low voice.On hearing gentle footsteps approaching, they all looked in the direction of the sounds and saw Gu Yunxi.Suddenly, it was silent in the hall.In front of them, it was the Emperor's favorite concubine who was only about eighteen or nineteen years old. She had fair skin and a lovely face, looking as beautiful as a lotus in snow.There wasn't much makeup on her small face. She was poised and was as charming as a woman who had just been in the Emperor's favor.Her pretty eyes were shiny and bright, looking like a pool of spring water, shining with knowledge.She had a delicate nose, pink lips, a slender neck, and a trim waist.She had changed into a bright silk royal outfit with less obvious patterns. On top of that, she wore a white tunic with l
Gu Yunxi's words immediately surprised the five women. They looked at each other. Then Concubine Liang stood up with a smile, putting her delicate hand on Gu Yunxi's shoulder."Yunxi, you should not listen to Jieyu Jiang. She is young and rude. Please sit down, and let's just chat."Jieyu Jiang pursed her red lips, moving restlessly and complaining."Sister Concubine Liang, you are being hypocritical. It is you who are curious about Jingyang Palace and want to know more about it, so you asked us all to come together. Yunxi is a sincere person, so why can't you tell her the truth? I helped you today, but you blame me for it.""Er, this… This..."She couldn't pretend anymore.Concubine Liang's face made as smooth as boiled egg white by the rose makeup, suddenly became red and flushed. Dodging eye contact, she turned to look at Gu Yunxi.The two of them grinned in unison and laughed strangely for
Lady Wan's proposal stunned Gu Yunxi.Seeing her well-behaved standing opposite the table and holding the gold box firmly with a naive appearance, Gu Yunxi was really upset.The remaining four women were all quiet. Some looked at Lady Wan, while others peeked at Gu Yunxi, wondering what would happen to them.Concubine Liang smiled faintly with darkness in her eyes. She was silently concerned about the beautiful Gu Yunxi.She was smart. So she knew that Gu Yunxi was putting on air by the power of the emperor.Seeing Gu Yunxi did not immediately reply to Lady Wan, Concubine Liang on the side added very timely, "Oops, Sister Wan, the mermaid bead is the bauble given to Yunxi by His Majesty. How can you also be childish and compete for it with Yunxi?"These harmless words seemed to complain that Lady Wan was not sensible. In fact, she forced Gu Yunxi.Didn't she boast that this box of mermaid bead
The red sunset was almost covered by the sunset glow, and the cool wind of the twilight swept across the vast plains below the Chiliu Mountain in Menglai County. The air was filled with a bloody and dissonant atmosphere.In front of the Chiliu Village, there were many officials. Today was the day to collect the ginseng.The bearded General put his hand into a bamboo basket and touched something. Then he pulled out a small ginseng, and suddenly frowned."Only this? And small?"He looked around at the villagers with angry eyes and shouted."How dare you! These will be offered to the Palace. Do you want to finish the task like this?"The village chief was a hunchback, sweating in the shallow glow of the sunset.He bowed his hand to the General, looking frightened and pale."General, the growth of this kind of ginseng always takes some time. The favorable climate, geographical
It was in Jingyang Palace.The imperial doctor came very quickly. He felt Gu Yunxi's pulse, but he didn't diagnose any serious diseases. Therefore, he only prescribed some drugs to calm and comfort her.Huanan Xin was relieved and let the imperial doctor go. He stayed alone in the bedroom to accompany his beloved woman."Yunxi, as for what you said in Qinming Hall, do you mean it?"They looked at each other, and the Emperor smiled as warm as the spring breeze.Gu Yunxi didn't avoid his eyes, but bravely looked into the eyes of Huanan Xin. She said with a smile."I have been lying in Jingyang Palace for a long time, and I can understand it. Now, Your Majesty, the only person who can protect me is you. Like just now, I didn't know how to get along with the sisters in the imperial harem, resulting in many misunderstandings. Fortunately, you came in time to help me, so I want to show my gratitude to you."
