(1/2)

Caiwei stood at the door with me in a hurry, and at this time she was also scared: "Madam, what are the emperor doing?"

Looking at her frightened expression, I was silent for a while, without saying a word, and just walked back to the room slowly, sat at the table, and gave a gentle command: "Close the door."

"oh!"

She hurriedly closed the door.

Once the door was closed, the panicked scenes outside were not visible, but the depressing and panicked atmosphere was still everywhere. I asked her to pour me a cup of tea, and I held it in my hand and sipped it slowly.

Time passed by little by little.

I don’t know how long it took, and maybe a long time later, the tea in my hand slowly became cold. Finally, I heard a sound of footsteps outside. It was not like Yang Jinqiao alone, but like a lot of people came. I frowned slightly and immediately heard the knock on the door outside.

Caiwei looked at me and nodded gently.

She walked over and opened the door, and saw Yang Jinqiao standing at the door, looking at me with a complicated expression.

I also hurriedly got up and walked over, met her gaze, and said in confusion: "What's wrong? What did the emperor send someone to do?"

She glanced at me again, but said nothing, but turned to the person behind her and said, "Pick it in."

What?

I was very confused, but there was no time to ask questions. Several maids behind her had already walked in with a few exquisite boxes. Caiwei and I gave in and watched them walk to the table and put the boxes on the table. They were all very exquisite round boxes of chicken wing wood carved. Seeing them putting them one by one on the table, my brows frowned and turned to Yang Jinqiao: "What's going on? What are these?"

"Didn't you ask, what did the emperor send someone to do?"

"Well, what did he do?"

"He sent someone to give food to the Yang family."

"Ah? Give food?" Since there was nothing big, I was even more puzzled: "Then what did you take it to me?"

"It was given to you."

“…”

"He never gave food to Yang's mansion like this, and-" She slowly walked to the table, and her eyes signaled one of the maids to open the lid of a round box to reveal the food inside, "The Yang family never eats spicy food either."

I stood there without moving, just looking at the box, which was indeed a plate of red and spicy food inside.

The heat slowly rises from the box.

Seeing my eyebrows twisting into a lump, Yang Jinqiao said nothing, but only gave a wink. The maids leaned over to salute, and then all retreated.

Then she slowly turned around and looked at me and said softly: "The Emperor knows you are in the Yang family."

“…”

"However, it seems that he is not going to force you."

“…”

"you--"

She seemed to have a lot to say to me, but when I looked up at her constantly flashing her eyes, she suddenly stopped again.

After a while of silence, she sighed softly: "You can rest first. These things are all delivered to you. See if they fit the taste."

“…”

"I'm leaving."

“…”

I didn't say anything, just watched her walk out of the front, and in a short while, her back disappeared outside the door.

Then I slowly turned my head and looked at the exquisite food boxes on the table. Caiwei had already walked over, looked at the steaming dishes in the box with the lid open, and said softly: "Well, it smells so good, but it is also very spicy."

As she said that, she looked up at me: "Madam, do you want to use it?"

I shook my head.

"Madam, you use very little breakfast, it's better to--"

Halfway through, she looked at my gloomy eyes and stopped talking wisely. I slowly walked to the table, looked at the food boxes and the steaming steam from inside - sent from the palace to the Yang Mansion. The journey was not short, but it was still steaming when I was delivered here. It seemed that someone was specially responsible for it.

However, it took his time.

...

I just sat at the table. After a long time, I watched the sunlight outside the door slowly move from one side to the other side, and the dishes on the table were completely cold. I finally moved. I was about to raise my head and call Caiwei, asking her to take the things down and throw them away. Unexpectedly, as soon as I looked up, I saw Yang Jinyao hurried over outside the door.

As soon as I saw her, I immediately got up.

She entered the palace early this morning and only came out now, so I feel very at ease.

As soon as she walked to the door, she almost tripped by the threshold because she was in a hurry. I hurried over to hold her arm and heard her shout, "Sister Yan!"

"How is it? I heard you were called into the palace by the queen's people early in the morning."

"Yeah, yeah!"

"What then? Did the queen tell you what did you do?"

Seeing that she was still a little gasping, it seemed that she had arrived at me as soon as she returned home. I hurriedly took her hand and walked to the table. She saw the food box on the table at a glance, and was stunned for a moment: "Hey?"

"What's wrong?"

"Are these things delivered from the palace?"

"How do you know?"

"When I was taken to Jingren Palace by them, I saw a team of palace maids holding these boxes in their hands on the road and hurried out. There was a father-in-law next to them urging them, saying that if they dared to spill a little, the emperor would chop their heads."

As she said that, she looked up at me and said, "So it was sent to you."

My face became even more gloomy, and I didn't say anything, so I turned around and said to Caiwei, "Take it down."

Caiwei agreed, hurried over and put away the boxes, held them to the door, and looked back at me: "Madam, where are you going?"

"Take wherever you want."

"……oh."

She looked scared again, but she still walked out obediently.

I turned around and reached out to Yang Jinyao: "Sit down."

Yang Jinyao seemed to be startled, and sat down and looked at me for a while. It was originally unstable, but there was a hint of admiration on her panicked face: "Sister Yan, I think in this heaven, you are probably the only one who dares to throw away the things given by the emperor."

"You are so awesome!"

Looking at her admiring expression, I smiled lazyly: "You don't have to admire me. I still dare not throw it away in front of him."

"But I don't dare to throw it away with the emperor on my back."

After hearing what she said, I was originally depressed, but I couldn't help laughing. After laughing, I looked at her and asked seriously: "Tell me, what did the Queen tell you that you entered the palace today?"

"It's nothing, I just let me go into the palace and talk."

As she said, her face slightly darkened: "I, there is nothing to say with the Queen, and she doesn't seem to be someone who likes to talk. They are all the people who are accompanying me."

"Who is accompanying you?"

"It seems to be - what is the name Yun, Yunpin, etc. I can't tell the difference, I only heard that she has a daughter, a little princess."

I will immediately feel sorry for Ye Yunshuang!

"She has been with the Queen?"

"Yes, it seems that the queen trusts her quite a bit, and leave some things to her."

I am not surprised that the concubines in the palace formed cliques. No matter how cold Chang Qing was, she had a close relationship with me at the beginning. Many things, if she didn't have me, she wouldn't have succeeded. If I didn't have her, it would be difficult for me to succeed.

After so many years, the harem is still the same, but she is no longer me, but Ye Yunshuang.

Ye Yunshuang...

I subconsciously frowned.

At this time, Yang Jinyao reached out and grabbed my hand. I was stunned for a moment, looked down and saw that the corners of her eyes were slightly red, as if she was anxious and almost cried: "Sister Yan, tell me, if this is the case, will the emperor ask me to be his concubine in the future?"

“…”

"I, I have heard that if the emperor wants to enthrone any lady from an official family, he will first ask the queen to summon him to the palace to speak. Am I going to be enthroned?"

“…”

"Is it?"

Looking at her anxious eyes, I could almost feel her anxiety. Even at this moment, her palms were covered with cold sweat. I guess she had experienced great suffering along the way and entered the palace and left the palace. However, things were indeed developing in the situation she was most reluctant to do. If nothing unexpected happens, Pei Yuanhao's will to enthrone her may be passed to the Yang family at any time.

but--

Until now, Pei Yuanhao has not officially opened up the conversation with Yang Wanyun.

In fact, no matter whether he really wants to enthrone Yang Jinyao or not, he should have a good time with his ministers first. After all, Yang Jinyao is different from Yang Jinqiao at the time. If he had already made a promise in advance and the emperor issued an edict to enthrone it, it would inevitably be deemed as a denomination and would be suspected of being suppressed by the imperial power. This time, if Wu Yanqiu had not rejected the marriage in advance, it would have been very likely that this would have been the result.

I thought about it and said, "Then, what did your father say?"

"My father?" Yang Jinyao was still a little confused, and then said, "My father, I have not come to hurry to find him yet. As soon as I leave the palace, I come to find you as soon as I get home. I want you to think of a solution for me."
