Pampered Into Being The Empress - Chapter 84

The weather changes from autumn to winter, but the Jiaofang Palace is warm and pleasant, and the fragrance of musk-brain is also floating in the Huading.

Before dawn, Mu Huai woke up before Rong Xi. The Wenxiang petite woman was resting on his vigorous arms, still asleep with her eyes closed.

Rong Xi’s breathing was shallow, and his defenseless appearance was really pitiful.

Mu Huai looked at her with gentle eyes. He couldn’t help but gently stroked her delicate eyebrows with his fingers. Seeing that the woman was not affected by this, she was still resting shallowly, and touching her forehead with her head, closing her eyes and rubbing .

After waking up early in the morning in his previous life, his side was always empty.

Now, as soon as he opened his eyes, there was a gentle beauty lying beside him, which made him feel more peaceful.

Thinking about it, Mu Huai kissed the woman’s forehead again.

This time, Rong Xi, who had been sleepy, was completely awake.

Feeling the cool touch of the man’s thin lips on his forehead, Rong Xi gradually remembered what happened last night.

As the memory reappeared, she felt a little pain in her knees, and she was ashamed of those shadowy figures.

She was really eaten, dried, wiped and cleansed without mercy.

Rong Xi clearly remembered that the man promised well, but in the end he coaxed her.

Drunk, she is too easy to be slaughtered, she was like a weak rabbit last night, and was ruthlessly ravaged by a fierce lion on the ground.

If she is sober, she can still think of some ways to prevent Mu Huai from being so arrogant.

Rong Xi’s cheeks became redder, and he knew that Mu Huai was already sober.

He was so ashamed to be like this again.

No wonder he had threatened her before and told her not to provoke him easily in the morning.

Even if she closed her eyes, she could feel that Mu Huai’s eyes were slightly burning.

At this time, the man’s interest was still active, and more than usual.

Mu Huai’s voice was still sleepy, and he asked her in a low voice, “Awake?”

Rong Xi slowly opened his eyes, blushing and replied softly: “Um…”

When the words fell, the man squeezed her petite body a little bit tighter, and let her lean against his shoulder.

Mu Huai had a naked upper body that was strong and masculine, but she was wrapped in bright yellow bedclothes with auspicious clouds and Ruilong embroidered on it.

Rong Xi couldn’t help being surprised when he realized that he was actually wearing a dragon robe.

Why did Mu Huai put his dragon robe on her?

Seeing the woman’s eyelashes were moving up and down, and her eyes were blinking very fast, Mu Huai knew that she must be thinking about something, so he asked in a low voice, “It’s still early, why don’t you sleep longer?”

When the words were over, he fished it with his arm, and once again confined the sweetheart who was about to get out of the incense quilt.

Rong Xi felt anxious, and raised his voice to the palace people outside the sleeping hall: “Come in and wait for my palace to refresh.”

After listening, Mu Huai glared at her with sharp black eyes.

Danxiang is an eye-catching man. Knowing that palace people shouldn’t enter the hall and wait for summons at this time, she stood outside the carved flying hood, half-bending her knees and asked: “Manny, when you are just coming down, do you want water? ”

What returned to her was the cold voice of the new emperor: “Go out, no one is allowed to enter without my permission.”

Dan Xiang’s heart beat, and Mu Huai’s voice was not angry and pretentious. Although her master was Rong Xi, she had to obey the emperor’s orders first.

He respectfully answered yes.

Rong Xi was restrained by the man and couldn’t move. She felt that the dragon robe was really scary, and it was too unruly, so she wanted to change the dragon robe first.

While struggling in Mu Huai’s arms, she asked in a soft voice, “Why did the husband put your bedclothes on your concubine?”

Mu Huai faintly replied: “You are restless in sleep, I’m afraid you are cold.”

His long, narrow, cold eyes are deep, and he used to look at her with this kind of eyes, he was moved with that kind of thought.

Mu Huai let go of her, but Rong Xi had a dark feeling in his heart.

Sure enough, just as she was about to set the tent to escape this place, Mu Huai hugged her back sideways.

Rong Xi kicked his bare white jade feet a few times in the man’s broad arms, making Mu Huai’s throat a bit dry again.

He said with a dumb voice to the woman: “It’s still early, I try to be as fast as possible, you behave.”

Rong Xi turned Shui Yingying’s eyes.

She couldn’t believe Mu Huai’s nonsense at all!

Then he refused and said: “The emperor… you are like this, Shang Dynasty will definitely be late.”

Jiaofang Palace is a gentle town, so that the always diligent emperor does not think about politics.

Mu Huai had never been late in his previous life. After Rong Xi had finished speaking with him, he actually felt that what was the matter of being late?

If you can’t complain, you can say that beauty is a disaster for beauty, and it will charm your mind.

But Mu Huai was somewhat sensible after all.

This woman made sense, he could not touch her easily, he would become addicted when he touched it, and it would not end at all for a while.

Thinking of this, Mu Huai felt jokes in her heart. She still leaned over to look at the beauties’ flustered eyes, pretending to be serious and authentic: “I want to stop the country for three days, and I will accompany Xier in Jiaofang Palace every day, but it is good?”

Rong Xi was shocked when he listened.

The panic on her face was even worse.

It’s over.

Mu Huai has a tendency to develop towards the uncle, she is really scared, this man actually didn’t go to court because of her.

Is he about to become a demon queen who will harm the country and the people?

Mu Huai was such a diligent and self-disciplined person in the past, but because of her, she has become like this.

Rong Xi felt that since he was a queen, he would have to correct Mu Huai’s problems at any time like an officer.

He said to the man in a low voice, “Even though Jue’er is small, she has already started to remember things. The husband has such high expectations for Jue’er, so he doesn’t want him to become a lazy prince of the East Palace… So husband, you can’t If you stop the court, you have to set an example for Jue’er.”

With that said, Rong Xi had already broken free from the man’s arms.

Mu Huai’s eyebrows were smiling, and Rong Xi said in that sweet and soft voice: “After my husband came back from the east tour, I haven’t seen Jue’er well. Jue’er goes to bed early and gets up early, so that the nurse will hug him. , Can you take a look at him?”

Rong Xi sits on the side of the bed, with silk-like black hair scattered, and when he talks to him, he has bright eyes.

But that charming little face looked a bit too sharp.

Mu Huai had listened patiently to her speech, and when she saw that the woman was really too thin, he couldn’t help but frowned.

Rong Xi took advantage of this to raise his voice, calling Dan Xiang and said: “The emperor is awake, to see the prince, go to the East Palace and hug him.”

Mu Huai squeezed her face slightly punished, his tone was pretentiously low, and said, “Dare you still preach the holy will?”

Rong Xi rubbed his face slightly aggrieved.

Mu Huai said again: “You are skinny like a monkey, eat more meat tonic these few days, and I will die when I hold you yesterday.”

Rong Xi pressed his soft lips slightly, feeling a little reluctant in his heart.

How can it be said that people are like monkeys?

Feeling the woman’s face dull, Mu Huai asked with a smile: “Little skinny monkey, sleep for a while?”

Rong Xi pursed her soft lips, and replied in a weak voice: “The concubines have asked the palace people to carry Jue’er over, so she won’t sleep… Besides, the concubines have other things to do.”

Smoke from the furnace in the sleeping hall.

Mu Huai was taken care of by Rong Xi, and from time to time he replaced the luxurious remade crown. Because he was still in the temple, he had only his ink hair tied up, but he did not wear a crown.

After Rong Xi helped him arrange his clothes, he disappeared.

The nurse had already hugged Mu Jue in. After Mu Huai took her son, she felt that Mu Jue’s holding was much heavier today than it was two months ago.

He had just got up shortly before, and now he was very energetic, with round eyes and black eyes, very cute.

Mu Huai looked at the little dumpling, held him upright with one hand, and compared his head with the other palm. He felt that the child was still young and his hands could almost completely cover his head.

On Mu Jue’s little head, soft lanugo hair gradually grew, and in a few months he would be able to pierce a total horn.

Mu Huai thought to himself, now he can be kind to him a little bit, and when he grows a few years old, he will be able to bear it.

Mu Jue seemed to be out of his mind, his smiling little face suddenly and brutally, he lowered his little head with a sound, and bit Mu Huai’s big hand.

His teeth are not yet straight, and the bite doesn’t hurt.

Mu Huai’s eyes were also full of fierceness, and he rebuked the little dumpling who was still not letting go: “How old do you dare to bite you Lao Tzu?”

The nurse panicked in her heart and hurriedly explained to Mu Huai: “Your Majesty, the little prince is teething, and it is in the time of his mouth…Whenever I have something, I always want to take two bites, not deliberately offending you.”

Mu Huai knew that the child did this unintentionally, but he still snorted.

He lowered his eyebrows and handed Mu Jue to the nurse again, the stinky boy’s saliva still remained in the tiger’s mouth.

Mu Huai suddenly felt something was wrong.

Rong Xi has not been here to accompany him to see his son, because he wanted to use Mu Jue to divert his attention.

Mu Huai vibrated Zhenhua’s noble sleeves, and then strode to find the little queen with so many ghosts.

After arriving in the study room, I saw that the little queen, who was already neatly dressed, was sitting behind the bookcase. She hadn’t applied her powder, but her appearance was extremely beautiful, and she was looking at the account books intently.

It was dark, and the candlestick on the case was also lit.

Mu Huai walked to Rong Xi and asked incomprehensibly: “Why are you looking at the accounts early in the morning?”

Rong Xi got up and was about to salute him, but was stopped by Mu Huai’s eyes.

In fact, he has told her many times before, don’t kneel in front of him in private, or impose any etiquette.

Even if I told her, it was useless.

Rong Xi’s beautiful eyes drooped slightly, while looking at the account books, he whispered back to the man and said, “Yesterday, the same husband went out to play in the palace. The supervisor of the six divisions sent the purchase order and concubines in the afternoon before he could read them. It’s a lot of work, but no delay.”

After listening to Mu Huai, he raised his single eyebrow slightly, but felt that this woman now has the energy of a scholar to take the imperial examination.

With her intellect, if she is really a man, studying hard all day long to prepare for scientific expeditions, maybe she can really win the prize.

Mu Huai shook his head helplessly, and said: “You are still weak, don’t be too tired.”

Rong Xi nodded docilely.

In fact, she didn’t need such diligence.

But now, she had other things in her heart.

It always takes more effort to calculate and plan.

******

Yongxi Forbidden City, Tangyu Palace.

The late autumn has passed, and the early winter in Bianjing, the branches have faded from the green and yellow color, leaving only the dead branches with the wind.

Concubine Hui was the master of Tangyu Palace. When Emperor Zhuang was alive, she liked calling Wang Jieyu to her main hall to listen to reprimands.

After Wang Jieyu went to the Queen’s Palace, she would go to the dormitory of Princess Hui to listen to her performance.

She is the youngest among all Emperor Zhuang’s concubines, and she has always given the impression of being a cowardly beauty.

At this time, Bianjing was the most damp and cold. Originally Empress Dowager Zhai was placed under house arrest by Empress Rong. Wang Jieyu could have held a Tang lady in her own partial hall to pass the time, but she didn’t expect it. After Emperor Zhuang passed away, Princess Hui. Always call her to the main hall to listen to her nagging.

Wang Jieyu’s expression was slightly impatient.

The female envoy she brought from her mother’s house before leaving the temple complained for her master: “What’s this? When the master used to be favored, the Concubine Hui could constrain, but the first emperor left, she It was because of my age that I became more and more fond of preaching to my master.”

Wang Jieyu’s face was faint and motioned to the female envoy to silence.

She is the youngest, beautiful, and good at dancing, but her family background is average.

When I was favored in the past, I didn’t dare to be too public.

With the passing of Emperor Zhuang, she has no children, and she is still a man with her tail in the palace.

After entering the hall of Princess Hui, Wang Jieyu glanced at the smoker in the hall, and felt that the charcoal inside was very hot, and a layer of carbon was covered in it, and it was about to emerge.

It is said that the monthly charcoal fire of the toffee is 90 catties.

As the former Jie Yu of Emperor Zhuang, her charcoal fire is 50 catties.

But according to the burning method of Princess Hui, her charcoal fire is only enough for half a month.

Concubine Hui gave Wang Jieyu a seat, and then asked the court lady to present tangerines and cakes.

After Wang Jieyu was seated, she felt that Concubine Hui’s bedroom was really overheated. After entering the palace, she suddenly felt chills. The menstrual affairs were also prone to troubles, but she also felt that Concubine Hui’s charcoal burn was a bit too much.

Concubine Hui sat lazily on the Luohan bed with a thick pearl powder on her face. Although she was white, in Wang Jieyu’s eyes, Concubine Hui’s current behavior looked like a bloated maggot.

There are many noble masters in the palace, and only this concubine Hui is the one who prides himself on the status of this concubine.

But Wang Jieyu remembered that when the former arrogant Concubine Li Gui was alive, this Concubine Hui did not even dare to breathe.

Wang Jieyu was accustomed to seeing the high and low steps in the palace, so he stopped the disgust in his eyes in time.

After Concubine Hui talked with her a little bit, Wang Jieyu took the initiative to bring up the charcoal fire, and asked: “Manny, this charcoal burns like you do, I’m afraid it will be exceeded soon… At that time, What should you do?”

Concubine Hui sipped the hot tea, and replied indifferently: “What’s the problem with this, let the people from the inner Zhusi make up if it is not enough.”

Wang Jieyu raised her eyebrows lightly, and said: “The queen mother is in charge of the account, and the people in the inner divisions don’t dare to fill in these now. The mother…I am afraid that she will have to use her own natal money to make up. Otherwise…save some charcoal fire. use.”

Concubine Hui was not angry when she heard about this queen Rong.

She crossed her eyebrows and said angrily: “If this charcoal fire is really burned out, she can still make this palace cold? This palace is at least one of the four concubines of the first emperor. Although she is a queen, she must respect this palace. .”

Wang Jieyu pretended to agree with Concubine Hui’s words, but secretly said in her heart that Concubine Hui was truly uncountable.

Empress Rong respects the Concubine De, with excuses, but there is a son who is a prince in Bianjing.

But your wife Hui has no heirs, so why should the queen reward you?

Concubine Hui put the tea cup in her hand on the small red sandalwood case, her tone calmed down a little, and she said to Wang Jieyu: “It is said that the queen’s new palace has been completed, and you and the palace should also bring a generous gift to the Jiaofang. Look at the palace and congratulate her on moving to the new palace.”

Wang Jieyu lowered his head to answer, but was reluctant in his heart.

She really didn’t want to humiliate herself with this Concubine Hui, so she thought, when Concubine Hui went to Jiaofang Palace, she would find a reason and not accompany her.

******

Early that morning, Wang Jieyu was ill, but Concubine Hui forced her to go to Jiaofang Palace with her.

Concubine Hui not only summoned Wang Jieyu, but also Concubine De and the rest of Emperor Zhuang’s concubines ahead of time. Under the banner of sending gifts, she wanted to see what the palace of Queen Rong was pretended to be.

The flower hall of Jiaofang Palace is spacious and luxurious, and the temperature of the charcoal fire inside is also very suitable, not only does not make people feel overheated, but also makes people feel the cold of early winter.

Behind the main seat of the Flower Hall, there is a screen with gold lacquer and cloud embroidery.

At the center of the suspended ceiling is also hung delicate tasseled four-corner palace lanterns, and the brocade carpets at the feet are still very new, and they are soft when stepped on, and there are also a wide range of pearls and jade treasures on the sandalwood Bogu shelf.

The palace built by the emperor for the queen is really extravagant, and it has the meaning of a golden house.

After taking her seat, Concubine Hui realized what is called the sixth house of pet crown.

The emperor can even be said to be an exclusive or exclusive favor to the queen.

Concubine Hui pretended to be drinking tea, remembering that a palace man said a while ago that this new emperor actually took this queen Rong out of the palace to play.

So arrogant, no wonder the empress is so domineering.

Concubine Hui started to despise the Queen’s Bazhen Crab Soup, and she hated her in her heart.

I thought that Empress Rong was so economical and the attitude of the daughter of a petty official, but she didn’t realize that her own life was so extravagant.

Rong Xi sat on the main seat, looking at the concubines with a faint expression, knowing that some people didn’t really come to give gifts.

Toffee Des sent someone to send a gift, but did not show up.

Xu Taiyuan also failed to come to Jiaofang Palace because of Mu Wei’s condition.

Rong Xi knew that Concubine Hui was the one with the worst mind among these concubines.

But after all, they are the old people of the first emperor. As a queen, she should treat them kindly, so she didn’t take it seriously.

On the other side of the Yongxi Palace, Mu Huai had just entered the dynasty, and when he returned to the Qianyuan Palace, he concentrated on approving the zhezi submitted from various prefectures and counties for a while.

Now that he has returned to Bian, he does not need to be strictly governed by Xu Xu.

Mu Huai is a person with a strong desire to control, and he doesn’t want to completely fake his hands on government affairs.

In the previous life, he also allowed Yan Juxu to open the government as an assistant to the government when he was personally conquered by the imperial driver.

After the zucchini in front of him had already piled up into a mountain, Mu Huai saw that the ink stains on the front of the pen had dried up, and was about to call the **** to polish the ink for him.

After thinking about it, it was the woman’s service that made him more comfortable.

He raised his voice to the **** who was standing in the hall and said, “Go and call the queen from Jiaofang Palace.”

The **** was respectful, but felt that most of what the emperor said to them was about the queen.

Where is the queen?

Where did the queen go?

Go and call the queen.

Why can’t the queen come yet? Send someone to have a look.

Let the queen accompany me for lunch/dinner.

The **** blinked heavily, then left Qianyuan Hall to invite the empress.

Mu Huai frowned and waited for Rong Xi for a long time, only to see the **** returning to the palace with a sad look.

He asked puzzledly: “What’s the matter? What about the queen?”

The **** truthfully reported the situation of Jiaofang Palace to Mu Huai.

After Mu Huai listened, his brows became heavier.

So he ordered the **** coldly: “Be prepared, I will go to Jiaofang Palace myself.”

Mu Huai felt that these concubines were really annoying. They had spent his money, but now they have nothing to run to his Xi’er’s palace.

He should have ordered people to Xiujian Temple, under the name of praying for Emperor Zhuang’s blessings, to send all these women in to eat and pray for the Buddha.

Seeing that the emperor’s road was dark on the road, the servants of the Nianziyuan didn’t dare to gasp, and carefully lifted the emperor to Jiaofang Palace.

As soon as Mu Huai arrived outside the flower hall of Jiaofang Palace, he heard Concubine Hui yin and yang say to Rong Xi weirdly: “My palace says where the queen’s money has been saved, it turns out that it was all about the translation of this palace.”

As soon as the words fell, the **** next to Mu Huai said with a shrill voice, “The emperor is here–”

Concubine Hui’s expression changed, but seeing the new emperor wearing a crown, she had already walked into the flower hall.
