Hope Should I Win Your Heart - C251 Ching Yi Pet
The matter of Fu Huaiyu’s rebellion had ended, and the palace had quietened down.
However, when they arrived at a certain place, they could still hear some of the young palace maids and eunuchs gathered together to discuss this matter. They were even more proud of knowing more.
Today, when Hua Xiangwei had nothing better to do, he brought her personal servant girl to the imperial garden’s backyard to pick some flowers. Whether it was to make pastries or to bathe them, it was extremely good.
“Empress Zhao Yi, leave these matters to me.” Lan’er, the personal servant girl, followed closely behind Hua Xiangwei and advised, “Does the Empress need to do all this?”
Hearing that, Hua Xiangwei smirked, as though he was satisfied with her praise, and enjoyed the treatment.
Although concubines didn’t need to do anything, she’d heard that the Emperor didn’t like ordinary women. It was inevitable for them to gain a saint’s favour just by pretending.
Hua Xiangwei held onto a flower basket, walked between the flowers, and knelt down to smell it, “I had nothing better to do, but I wanted to come out to take a walk, anyway, it’s not tiring work.” Her words were light and there was a hint of kindness in her expression, but there was also a hint of pride in her eyes.
Lan’er smiled and no longer tried to persuade him otherwise, and followed behind to protect him.
Along the way, there were more flowers in the flower basket. She smiled in satisfaction. No one could harm themselves if they could defend themselves from the flowers they picked, “Let’s do this. Take these down, I’ll wait for you here.” He handed the basket to Lan.
There might be bees or bugs in the bright flowers, and before they were brought back to the courtyard they would have to be examined by the ladies.
Lan’er accepted the order and took the flower basket down. She felt bored, so she admired for a while. Suddenly, a wave of conversations attracted her attention.
Shifting his gaze from the flower to the source of the sound, he saw a few court ladies huddled together, sneakily discussing something.
There were many people gossiping about in the palace, but as long as it had nothing to do with her, she couldn’t be bothered to care about it. She quietly listened, and vaguely heard some words regarding the Ninth Prince s.
“I heard that the Ninth Prince was preparing to rebel since a long time ago. The Emperor already knew about it.”
“Really? I even thought that Ninth Prince was really just a normal elegant and outstanding playboy! ”
“How many royal juniors are easy to deal with?” The palace maid carefully glanced at his surroundings before lowering his voice. “Even blood brothers would kill each other for the throne!”
The palace maids broke out in a cold sweat when they heard this. If anyone heard these words, they would definitely lose their minds!
Hua Xiangwei stood there and heard everything clearly, and she couldn’t help but frown. She was actually hesitating whether she should make a sound to stop this, this was a matter concerning the Imperial Family, if she were to make a move to stop it …
“You can’t just casually say these things!”
“How dare you!” After experiencing a struggle within her heart, she still decided to speak out.
The hearts of the palace maids were already in their throats. Now that they had lost their souls from the scolding, they immediately knelt to the ground.
“This servant greets the Wah Zhao Yi Empress …” The court ladies were all trembling, their voices tinged with tears. “Empress, please spare us! Empress, spare me! ”
“To think that the palace rule is spouting nonsense here, they truly think that the palace is their own home!” Hua Xiangwei scolded her sternly. She had always had experience teaching her servants, if she did not take out some strength, these palace maids would not use her as a punishment!
Hearing her cold voice, the palace maids were all frightened to the point of hastily kowtowing. “These servants made a slip of the tongue, a moment of confusion. Please forgive them, esteemed lady!”
But Hua Xiangwei only snorted coldly, everyone here is just a cheap bone, if good advice can do it, then there will be no torture in the prison, and even if these people do not receive any punishment, they will not be able to remember, “Speaking of the Royal Family in front of everyone, do you know that this is a capital punishment?!”
“Esteemed Empress, have mercy, this servant did not mean to …” Hearing this, all the palace maids’ faces turned ashen as they continued to plead for mercy.
This greatly satisfied her vanity, and her heart felt even more proud. “If I let you off this easily, would the harem still be able to rely on me in the future?” As he said this, he ignored their pleas for mercy, “Each of you go and claim twenty plates. In the future, if I hear any more of these unpopular words, no one will be able to protect you!”
She did not have the guts nor the right to directly sentence them to death, but these twenty pieces of wood were not light either.
The palace maids did not dare to say anything, so they could only silently go down to retrieve the wooden board.
When Fu Yuheng, who was not far away, saw this scene, he could not help but narrow his eyes. He did not notice that there was such a thing as Hua Xiangwei in the palace, but his actions and actions did not seem like a girl’s pettiness.
What they discussed had to do with Fu Yuheng. No matter what, it was still a royal scandal, so she had done a good job.
Hua Xiangwei looked back in shock, and was shocked to see that it was him. “Your concubine greets your majesty.”
“Get up.” As he said this, he coughed lightly. Recently, he had accidentally caught a cold.
She felt uneasy. She didn’t know when the emperor had arrived, or whether he would blame her for what she had done.
The man’s calm voice sounded from above her, “Why are you so restrained now?”
She looked at him suspiciously. There was a hint of ridicule in his eyes. He must have already seen what she was doing.
“The Palace People s of the imperial harem love to gossip, what you did just now was not a bad idea.” His praises were faint, no different from normal, but after hearing it, Hua Xiangwei’s heart shook, a pleased look flashed past his eyes.
The Emperor was actually praising him!
She was silent. She didn’t know what to say, but she was extremely anxious. She then heard him cough once more. She couldn’t help but frown and put on a worried look. “Is the Emperor sick with the dragon’s body?” Do you want to ask the imperial physician to take a look? ”
Hearing this, he waved his hand, “No need, Little Feng Han is no problem.”
“What’s wrong with the Emperor’s body?” As he spoke, his tone was filled with authority. “Your Majesty, please return to the palace to rest.”
Fu Yuheng looked at her deeply, but didn’t say anything and returned to the palace. After that, for the past few days, Hua Xiangwei always brought a bowl of soup to the imperial study, and when he saw that she insisted, he allowed her to take care of him.
This was Huang En’s magnanimity, and she was very proud of him, thinking that he had seen her.
The news of Wah Zhao Yi taking care of the Emperor day and night quickly spread and many people were jealous. Such a good opportunity for her to go!
She was jealous, so she learned to deliver soup to the Emperor every day, but she was rejected.
“Just what ability did this Hua Xiangwei use!? Instead, all the benefits were taken away by her! ” She was extremely envious, it was not easy for the Consort Xian to return to the General’s House, they were not in the palace, they had all gotten the chance, but they did not expect that before she could take action, they were already snatched away by Hua Xiangwei, how could they not be angry?
