A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City - Chapter 118

It doesn’t matter who passed the rumor. The important thing is that the rumor has been spread in the palace, and it may soon spread to the people.

As long as some rumors are spread to the people, they will become something that many people believe in. They have even been spread for hundreds of thousands of years. They have been compiled into dramas and become the talk of countless people after dinner.

“The woman Su Meidai must have done it.”

Staying ashore is the eldest son. In order to make Yunduqing’s crown prince more stable, Su Meidai will definitely find a way to remove the threat of staying ashore.

“That bitch.” She trembled with anger, and lowered her head to ask the **** who was passing the message: “What else was going on outside?”

“According to… It is said that you and the Patriarch of the Du family were young and deeply affectionate, and they promised each other for life, but the emperor was beaten by the mandarin duck…”

“Enough!” Xu Fei interrupted the eunuch, with a sarcasm: “Mutual promise for life?”

She really wanted to be with Du Qingke back then, but the useless trash said that the emperor’s life was embarrassing. As the young master of the Du family, he couldn’t just focus on personal pleasure.

Pooh!

The man’s promise is not as good as the mud used to paste walls in the village. The mud used to paste walls is somehow sheltering from wind and rain. Du Qingke’s waste can only make her ashamed.

When I was young and ignorant, I fell in love with this bloodless thing.

If it weren’t for his usefulness now, she wouldn’t even want to look at him.

“Even you all know these rumors. I’m afraid they have been passed to the emperor’s ears long ago.” Xu Fei took a deep breath: “Go to the small kitchen to spread the word. I’m going to cook myself.”

Over the years, she has been saying that she could not get sick, just because she didn’t want your Majesty to remember the mistakes she made when she was in the underground residence.

But the current rumor, she must dispel your majesty’s suspicion anyway.

She remembered that when she first arrived at the palace, there were no other women in the palace. She had cooked a bowl of health porridge for her majesty. His majesty ate cleanly and praised her for her dexterity.

She has not been cooking for many years, and she has become very hands-on. She has cooked it two or three times before she simmers a bowl of white fungus and longan porridge.

Putting this hot bowl of porridge into the food box, Concubine Xu went straight to the Taiyang Palace.

“Emperor Xu Fei is here?” At the gate of Taiyang Palace, Liu Zhongbao seemed to predict her arrival and bowed to her: “Your Majesty is waiting for you, please come with the old slave.”

“Thank you, Grandpa Liu.” Concubine Xu’s heart sighed. She looked at the door of the palace that was slowly opening, hesitated for a moment, and walked in.

Liu Zhongbao stretched out his hand to stop the palace man behind Xu Fei: “Your Majesty is discussing matters with the empress, no other people are allowed to enter.”

Emperor Longfeng sat in front of the imperial case and reviewed the memorials. Apart from him, there was no other person to serve in the hall.

“Are you here?” Seeing her coming in, Emperor Longfeng put down his pen and looked calm: “Sit down.”

“My concubine hasn’t been cooking for many years, and in recent days I’ve got better, so I personally boiled a bowl of white fungus and longan porridge, please try it.” Xu Fei brought the porridge to Emperor Longfeng.

“I remember that when you were given to the palace, you were not happy. After listening to your mother’s suggestion, you made a bowl of porridge, and when you brought it in front of me, your hands were shaking.” Emperor Longfeng looked at the particularly hot porridge. : “I don’t know where you heard the wrong news, thinking I like white fungus and longan porridge. In fact, I have never liked longan since I was a child, let alone eat longan porridge.”

Concubine Xu stiffened and looked at Emperor Longfeng in disbelief.

“But you have just arrived at the palace and you are not familiar with the place of life. I don’t want you to be uneasy, so I reluctantly ate the bowl of porridge.” Emperor Longfeng walked to the window and looked out the window with his hand, but didn’t look at her:” Concubine Xu, take this bowl of porridge today, please take it back.”

Concubine Xu knelt on the ground: “Your Majesty, my concubine does not know your Majesty’s tastes and preferences, and my concubine is at fault.”

“Get up.” Emperor Longfeng looked calm: “You didn’t want to marry into the palace at the beginning. You and I are involuntary. You don’t know my tastes, and I don’t understand your hobbies. What’s wrong?”

“Your Majesty!” Concubine Xu did not dare to speak out about the rumors in the palace, but she had to find a way to dispel her suspicions. She could only speak: “You are the father who stayed ashore, the emperor of Dacheng, and your concubine is a concubine, no Understand your taste, it is the concubine’s bad job.”

“This kid staying ashore sometimes has a more reckless personality, but he is a good boy.” Emperor Longfeng said, “My uncle, he was so temperamental back then.”

Concubine Xu did not dare to answer, because the first emperor fainted, the mother of the Queen Mother died cleanly, and her majesty’s uncle was not spared.

“My Majesty Xie.” Concubine Xu was delighted. When my Majesty said so, did he doubt that he meant to stay on the shore?

What if Su Meidai’s **** is spoiled again?

In the eyes of men, children are more important after all.

Emperor Longfeng looked through the window and saw Queen Su approaching here, and quickly sat back to the imperial case: “Xu Fei, what kind of incense do you use?”

Concubine Xu is at a loss. She often complains of illness, how can she use incense?

“You stay away from me.”

Not far away, I’m afraid I can’t explain it clearly.

“Your Majesty.” Without waiting for the eunuch’s notification, Empress Su went directly into the hall and saw Concubine Xu, who was kneeling in the room, put the food container in her hand on the table, and glanced over the porridge that was no longer hot on the table: “Yes. This palace came by accident.”

“You and I are a husband and wife, there is no coincidence.” Emperor Longfeng stretched out his hand to open the food box and said with a smile: “This snack is so beautifully made.” As he said, he had to stretch out his hand and eat it.

“Your Majesty, wash your hands and test for drugs.” Queen Su patted the back of Emperor Longfeng’s hand and looked at Concubine Xu who was kneeling on the ground with a smile: “Concubine Xu, you are weak and can’t kneel for long.”

“Thank you Empress Empress.” Seeing Su Meidai’s lofty posture, Concubine Xu hated her, but she didn’t dare to show half a point on her face, but she was grateful.

A maid of Mingyue Palace helped her.

She watched His Majesty and Su Meidai eating snacks and chatting like ordinary couples. She stood here, no different from the candlestick decorations in the temple.

She thought that Queen Su would mention her past with Du Qingke and take the opportunity to discredit her life experience, but she didn’t say anything. Even after her Majesty praised the delicious snacks, she even ordered someone to send snacks to the princes of Zhangliu Gong.

What does Su Meidai mean, pretending to be virtuous in front of your majesty?

“Princess, have you heard the rumors in the palace?” When the equinox was dressing Jiuzhu, he whispered: “It has spread in just a few days, and the servants feel that something is wrong.”

“What rumors?” Jiuzhu asked curiously.

“Some people say that His Royal Highness Huai Wang is not the blood of your Majesty, but the birth of Empress Xu and Du Qingke, the head of the Du family.”

“How is that possible.” Jiuzhu shook his head and denied: “The eyebrows and nose of Wang Huai are exactly the same as His Majesty. No one with eyes can say that.”

Thinking of the gentle-tempered Princess Huai, Jiuzhu said: “I will go to Zhang Liugong later and find some sister-in-laws to play with.”

Rumors suddenly appeared, and there was only one reason: someone deliberately spread the rumors.

The queen mother has always been kind and upright, and she will certainly not allow this rumor to continue to ferment in the palace.

“You leave your elder brother and sister-in-law to eat at noon, and I will be there later.” Wang Chen walked to her and kissed her forehead gently: “Wait for me.”

The worst mood at the moment is the king who is pregnant. He has a royal bloodline. Suddenly everyone around him suspects that his mother put a green hat on his father, and his eyes are not right.

The most overwhelming thing is that when I met the third brother Jing Wang, the other party saw him from a distance and turned around and walked away. With so many court ladies and eunuchs present, the behavior of the third child almost blatantly pointed his nose to everyone and said, come and see, my eldest brother’s identity is really problematic!

I didn’t expect that the third brother who usually doesn’t make a sound, doing things so sullenly, is not a good thing.

“Master, don’t you walk around in front of my eyes, are you annoying?!” Princess Huai couldn’t bear to say: “What’s the use of you being anxious here, the most important thing now is not what the palace ladies and eunuchs say, but whether the father believes it or not. you.”

“Can I go to my father and tell the matter on the open?” Wang Huai was so angry that he beat the table: “This kind of thing is that the tofu falls into the ash pit, and it can’t be shot.”

“You said this…” Wang Huai lowered his voice: “Could it be the line of Empress Su who is calculating me?”

Princess Huai slowly shook her head: “Father is about to canonize his fifth younger brother as a prince, why should the queen make such a move?”

“Your woman’s family, how do you know the stakes in this.” Wang Huai did not agree with the words of Princess Huai: “Don’t forget, I am the eldest son.”

“You don’t think I’m a woman, so don’t discuss it with me.” Princess Huai finally turned the table unbearably: “Go to your little concubines to share the room!”

Shocked by her sudden temper, Wang Huai was weakened by two points: “It’s just a rumor. I am still Huai Wang. Are you eager to cross the river with me to tear down the bridge?”

Princess Huai was angrily laughed, raised the tea bowl beside her, and when she was about to smash it, she heard the sound of Ming Jiuzhu coming from outside the yard.

“Big Brother and Sister-in-law?”

Princess Huai put down her tea bowl and hurried out: “Five younger siblings?”

“Sister-in-law, eldest brother.” Jiuzhu glanced at King Huai who came out with Princess Huai, and saluted them: “The weather is good today. My Royal Highness and I want to come here to ask you for a lunch. Are you willing?”

Before Wang Huai could react, Princess Huai nodded with joy: “I am willing to give up, what do the five younger siblings want to eat, even if you tell the sister-in-law, the sister-in-law must be satisfied, you just don’t dislike it.”

“Is there anything delicious, Sister-in-law didn’t call me?” Princess An leaned forward and appeared at the gate of the courtyard, and walked in with a smile: “I just heard you mention lunch.”

“There is something delicious, you must be indispensable.” When Princess Huai saw Wang Huai still standing stupidly on the spot, her eyebrows were erected: “Your Highness, don’t you ask the small kitchen to prepare?”

The five younger siblings rushed over from the Kylin Palace deliberately to help him decipher the rumors. How could he not be flexible at all?

Is it true that the future prince and princess really rarely have lunch for the couple?

With the king’s spirit, his mind finally reacted: “Five younger siblings appreciate the face, how can I be stingy as my brother, I will go to the small kitchen and stare at them to prepare the ingredients.” He glanced at Jiuzhu’s back, and Yun Duqing was not there: I don’t know when the fifth brother will come?”

“The lower part of my house was summoned by the emperor. I will come later.” Jiuzhu smiled: “Before his highness went out, he also specially asked me to let the eldest brother prepare wine and food. He wants to come over and have a big meal.”

A flower appeared on Wang Huai’s face: “Oh, eat whatever you want, eat it open.”

He had lived for more than 20 years, and for the first time he felt that Yun Duqing was so likable.

Wang Chen was in the Taiyang Palace, and after learning to deal with affairs with Emperor Longfeng, he got up and prepared to leave.

Emperor Longfeng stopped: “You still have Zhezipan in the afternoon, where are you going?”

“Father, your son is going to have lunch with your eldest brother today, so you will give your son a half-day off?” Wang Chen rubbed his hands and smiled, “Eldest brother is the host, and the son should eat more.”

Emperor Longfeng was startled slightly, then smiled, very pleased.

“Go.” He closed the memorial in his hand: “I’ll give you a half-day holiday and eat more.”

The best way to decipher rumors is not to force people to shut up.

Instead, it makes people feel that those rumors are jokes that fools believe.
