(1/2)
He suddenly ordered, and I was caught off guard. Although Song Huaiyi was also a little surprised, when he saw Eunuch Liu coming in just now, he knew that something must have happened in the palace, so he asked him to make this decision. So he came forward immediately and politely tried to keep him: "Young master, don't you sit for a while?"
"No. Go back to the palace immediately."
After saying that, he whispered to Eunuch Liu: "You go back first, and then..."
His voice was also very low. Even if I sat beside him, I couldn't hear what was behind me clearly. After hearing this, Eunuch Liu immediately took the order and turned around and went out.
Then, Pei Yuanxiu turned to me and said, "It's time for us to leave."
When I heard his tone, I put down the bowls and chopsticks in my hand, wiped the corners of my mouth slightly and stood up. Song Huaiyi, who was beside me, knew that he could not keep him anymore, so he hurriedly turned around and ordered his servants to go down immediately to see him off. Pei Yuanxiu said, "Let's go."
I also looked very eyebrow and didn't ask much. I followed him out. The carriage had already stopped outside the door. All the guests who came to pay their respects were standing at the gate to see him off. Pei Yuanxiu's expression was still as usual. After saying goodbye to the Song family, he got on the carriage with me. Under the urging, the carriage quickly drove forward.
Although he was very calm, once I sat down, I could feel his breath was a little unstable.
It seems that something really happened?
But on this night, except for the sound of chanting scriptures and Buddhas from the Song family behind him, the entire capital was surprisingly quiet - after all, the emperor was about to ascend the throne in one day, and it was obvious that everyone was under control. At this time, who would or some forces enter the capital?
I think that those who can enter the capital should be the ones who ascended the throne and became emperor to watch the ceremony.
But who exactly is it that makes Pei Yuanxiu pay so much attention?
I looked at him and saw that he closed his eyes and looked at him in a state of restlessness, but his breath seemed to be chaotic with the shaking body of the car.
But in my heart, a crack seemed to be torn open, and some light came into the darkness.
After a long time, our carriage finally drove into the palace gate.
When the carriage stopped, I heard the sound of the heavy arch closing from a distance behind me. A muffled sound seemed a little scary in the night. After getting off the carriage, a team of palace maids came to wait with palace lanterns. I thought that since he was in a hurry to return to the palace, he should have to meet someone immediately and talk about something, but after he helped me get off the carriage, he said to me calmly: "Let's go, I'll send you to rest."
I was stunned: "You, aren't you urgent?
"Nothing urgent."
“…”
"Let's go."
"oh……"
I didn't say much to him, just listened to him obediently and walked forward. Although he said he was "sending" me, he naturally walked two steps ahead. I followed him, besides Huazhuyun Mountain, there were other palace maids walking on both sides. The palace lanterns in his hands illuminated the road ahead clearly.
But as I walked, I felt something was wrong.
Although I know that the road to the harem is a long way to go back from the palace gate where we got off the bus, there is only one road closer. The road he is taking now has to go around a big circle.
I subconsciously said "Huh" and he heard it and immediately turned around and looked at me.
I simply asked, "Did you go wrong?"
He said: "No."
"Can--"
"Just follow me."
"……oh."
When he turned around, a few people came in front of him. It was Eunuch Liu who was ordered to return to the palace when he was in the Song family. He seemed to have finished his work. Seeing that his breath was unstable, he hurried over to greet him and leaned over and said, "Young Master, Miss Yan."
Pei Yuanxiu didn't even ask him if he had done it, just nodded and walked forward.
I didn't ask anything more, but still followed his footsteps. Eunuch Liu followed us. The group had almost no gasps and coughs, and they were walking quietly on the road in the palace, and the doubts in my heart were getting deeper and deeper.
Gradually, our road was completely deviated to the bedroom, but walked towards the harem, and the surrounding scenery became more and more familiar. Finally, we stopped at the door of Jingren Palace.
When I stopped, I seemed to have understood something in my heart. After he stood still, he signaled Eunuch Liu to go forward and open the door, and then turned around and said to me: "You will move here from tonight."
“…”
I didn't say anything, but looked up and looked forward. There was obviously someone waiting inside. Eunuch Liu just stepped forward and called the door. The door opened immediately. The bright light suddenly shone on my face and illuminated my eyes. Only then did I see that the lights in Jingren Palace were brightly lit. Two little eunuchs were standing at the door, waiting with their heads down. Several palace maids were waiting in line. When we saw us, they immediately came forward to bow their heads and greeted me: "Greetings to the young master, Miss Yan."
Pei Yuanxiu said: "Go in."
After saying that, he walked in first.
I stopped for a moment, Hua Zhu looked at my face, probably looking a little pale in the night, and hurriedly came forward worriedly to hold my arm, and whispered: "Miss Yan, are you okay?"
“…I’m fine.”
"Then, let's go in."
"Um."
I nodded and let them help me step into the tall threshold. When I walked in, I saw that the entire Jingren Palace had been renovated. Not only was the walls again, but the floor was covered with new flat bricks, and even the tiles on the roof were replaced. The yard was cleaned clean. It should have been washed with water for a short time. There was still some wet water marks in the corners of the walls, and the stone slabs were spotless and a little cool. The lanterns under the eaves were also bright, illuminating the entire yard without any darkness. Pei Yuanxiu walked to the door and waved to me.
I walked over slowly.
When I pushed the door and walked in, I immediately felt a warm feeling coming.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! The furnishings inside are roughly the same as before, but all the furniture and utensils have been replaced. The incense burner on the table is still burning. A wisp of light smoke slowly rises into the air and then dissipates, and the whole room is soaked in a soft and warm fragrance.
No matter how you look at it, it is a very comfortable place.
I followed him into the middle of the room and looked at it. I even saw a large hall there. In addition to the thick mattress and the main seat that made people sit comfortably, my subordinates on both sides arranged a few chairs. Looking back, every time I saw Chang Qing in the past, she would sit there and accept the greetings from the concubines in the harem.
I even remembered that when I was enthroned as a talented person, I seemed to be standing there, accepting her lesson, and being told how to be gentle, respectful, and frugal, and behave properly so that I can become a qualified concubine.
At that time, Shen Rou, Xu Youling... they just sat on both sides and looked at me with their own thoughts.
For a moment, many indescribable past events and memories came to my mind, but when I came to my senses, I became a little stunned.
Now, does this belong to me?
I stared there blankly.
Pei Yuanxiu said: "I have someone bring you all the things you use, and there are some. When the day after tomorrow, I will get new ones. Tonight, you will start living here."
“…”
I was silent for a long time and nodded slowly.
I was like this, and I didn't fight or refuse at all, and I didn't even ask a question. I was considered well-behaved, but he was a little surprised by my dullness and obedience. After thinking about it, he walked up to me and reached out to my shoulders and held me on his shoulder: "You want to be fine, huh?"
I looked up at him and nodded again.
Only then did he realize that I was really confused.
The warm temperature in my palm finally made me feel a little awake, and I said, "I understand, go and do your business."
He looked at me again before nodding.
But just as I walked to the door, I suddenly heard a noise outside, and it seemed as if I had heard someone let out a dull scream in the darkness.
After a while, I heard the sound of several little palace maids running by.
I was stunned for a moment, not knowing what happened, but looking at the expressions of Pei Yuanxiu and the people around them, they were not surprised at all, and they even seemed to be used to it. Eunuch Liu just asked someone to go out and ask, and when he came back, he said, "Young Master, it's the Yuhua Palace again."
Pei Yuanxiu only sighed faintly.
"Young Master, do you want to go there again tonight?"
"No need," Pei Yuanxiu said: "Let them inform the imperial physician."
"yes."
Eunuch Liu hurriedly called these little eunuchs and ran out. When I saw this scene, I became more and more confused. I turned to look at Pei Yuanxiu and said, "What's wrong?"
He said, "It has nothing to do with you. It's late at night, it's time for you to rest."
“…”
"Go back to bed early."
"oh."
He was perfunctory to me, and because he had something to deal with, he couldn't stay any longer. Judging from his appearance, he seemed to be not a secret, so he turned around and left Jingren Palace without even giving an explanation.
Of course it was already very late at this time, but I was not sleepy at all. When the gate of Jingren Palace was closed, I even saw someone running by hurriedly outside. When I looked back, the palace maids were waiting behind me respectfully. At this time, I was waiting for me to come into the house to wash. As expected, as Pei Yuanxiu said, some things that needed were moved from the bedroom.
I think that Jingren Palace must have been prepared early in the morning. After all, no matter whether I will be crowned as queen or not, I will not be able to live in the emperor's bedroom for a long time. After he ascended the throne, he naturally had to move everything back on track.
But it seemed that it was a temporary decision to let me move here tonight, so he just asked Eunuch Liu to leave the Song Mansion first and return to the palace to deal with this matter.
The reason why he asked him to make this decision temporarily seemed to be the thing that Eunuch Liu came to inform him.
I stood in the yard and pondered for a moment. The little palace maids were afraid that I would catch a cold when I stood in the wind, so they hurried over to invite me back to the house. I turned around and returned to the room.
I asked us to follow us for a long time and we were tired. There were two little palace maids serving me in the room. I had just washed my face and sat in front of the dressing table to comb my hair. When I heard a burst of footsteps outside, someone ran over. I looked at the two little palace maids behind me in the mirror, looking at each other, as if I knew it. I asked, "What was the sound outside just now? Did you get into the thief?"
One of the little palace maids immediately said: "Of course not, Miss Yan must not be afraid."
"What's going on?"
Another little palace maid took off a bead hairpin from my head and said softly: "Actually it's not a big deal. It's the one from Yuhua Palace who has nightmares almost every night. The people who serve there can't sleep well at night. They often have to ask the imperial doctor to come in the middle of the night."
"oh……"
It turned out to be Han Ruoshi.
I think no one in the harem can cause such a big disturbance.
She is not young anymore. At this time, the pregnant woman was originally very impatient and needed comfort. But she only watched her most capable maid Xiaolian be beaten to death and was thrown to Yuhua Palace lukewarm. She could not think about the position of queen anymore. In this case, how could she be calm?
