Chapter 70: Each has something in mind (2)

Some people outside the palace stayed asleep all night, and some people inside the palace were also excited and had ups and downs.

Baohua Palace is brightly lit and bright as daytime.

Only the curtains of Concubine Zhao's bedroom blocked all the noise and light outside.

As the New Year bell passed, Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief and hurried forward to help Concubine Zhao who was still kneeling on her prayer.

"Empress, get up quickly, take your knees carefully."

Concubine Zhao clasped her hands together and chanted "Amitabha" silently, then stood up with Ruying's hand. Her feet trembled and she almost stopped standing firmly.

"Grandma, look at you, you have to stay up to the New Year yourself. Your knees will definitely be blue and purple when you look back." Ruying helped Zhao Yawei sit on the soft couch and gently massage her knees.

Zhao Yawei knocked on her waist and sighed, "Time is not forgiving people, I am old. I have only been kneeling for soreness and weak legs. I copied scriptures for the old lady in the mansion, and I knelt all night."

"How could the Empress be old? She is in her prime and young? Who in this harem has a deep source of blessing? Today, Princess Fukang came to the palace to accompany you to have the New Year's Eve dinner. I saw that the Empress and the Princess were like sisters, but how could I tell that they were aunts and nephews?"

"Hahaha, you will make me happy. Feng'er is back?"

"Go back to the Queen, the Fourth Prince is back. I just returned to the palace to rest."

"Well, has the wound been treated?"

"The Fourth Prince summoned Doctor Li secretly, and he must have applied medicine."

"When will this kid stop me from worrying?"

"The Fourth Prince is still young, just get married."

"Luckily, nothing big happened today. If so... our efforts over the years will be wasted."

"Empress, Your Highness knows what you know. Our Highness is smart. When did he do something that disappoints you?"

"Ruying, what do you think about today's affairs?"

Ruying half-kneeled beside the couch, her hands were not paused at all, and she said with a smile, "I feel that the princess is too anxious."

Zhao Yawei raised her hand and signaled that she didn't need to knock again. Ruying stood up and poured her a cup of tea, but Zhao Yawei took it but didn't drink it.

"I don't know her mind, but this child is too resentful and impure in nature, so he is not a good match."

"But, what is the Empress going to say, "And the Prime Minister seems to have not rested in the past few years."

Zhao Yawei held her chin with one hand, her beautiful eyes flowed, and her eyes were meaningful.

"My cousin is short-sighted, and he wants to defeat Lu Zhan? He didn't think about it. If it was as simple as he thought, why would I try my best to go this way? I was smart enough to crawl out of the eldest lady's belly, thinking that I could play with everyone in my palm. If it weren't for me, the Xu family wouldn't have the current glory and status."

"Oh, the master and our wife were in a hurry back then, and the lady could only live in Xu's house when she was young. She originally hoped that the master and our wife would see that the master and our wife were brothers and sisters of the same mother and could take care of the lady more, but unexpectedly... Over the years, the lady has repaid their kindness."

"Sweep", Zhao Yawei sneered, "Take care? If the old lady hadn't been there, she would have wanted to swallow me. If she really thought that her son was, I, Zhao Yawei, would have liked me?"

"Miss, Madam, is a shallow man."

"Yes, otherwise why would you think of sending me into the palace? Speaking of which, I still have to thank her. Without her, there would be no present in my present."

"I guess, the eldest lady thought so too, so she was determined to let the princess enter the palace."

"Hmph." Zhao Yawei stopped with her fingers turning the Buddhist beads, "I can do my best to make a move. I have no choice but to give her a concubine position, but she is unable to satisfy her desires and will be more and more powerful."

Ruying carefully helped Concubine Zhao walk into the inner room, and advised, "It depends on whether you are willing or not. Is it her turn to take charge of it. But Miss, the prime minister is now in a high position and our fourth prince is not strong enough. He still needs more help from the court. It is not good to tear his face at this moment."

Zhao Yawei sat in front of the dressing table and took off her armor by herself. Ruying helped her remove her head and carefully and gently combed her waterfall-like black hair with a comb.

"Of course I know, after planning for so many years, how can I fail? Let her be proud for a few more days. By the way, Feng'er's life is near, so please help me with his place. Don't let him find that we have people around him. The child has had his own ideas since he was a child, so don't really anger him."

"Don't worry, Miss, I know."

"I have always been relieved to do things. Now I will wait for the emperor to give the marriage. When Feng'er's marriage is decided, that matter can be planned."

"Miss, what if the Lu family refuses to get married?"

"They will definitely refuse marriage. The little girl from the Lu family didn't like Feng'er at all."

"Ah? What does this mean by Miss?"

"Oh, it's just Feng'er's child. I can't tell that the little girl's heart is not at all on him, and she is trying her best to protect her."

"That lady asked the fourth prince to marry Miss Lu?"

"Feng'er doesn't need to marry someone with deep affection, he just needs to marry the one who can bring him the greatest help."

Besides, he likes it.

"I don't understand. Since marrying Miss Lu is the best choice, how can I get the Lu family to agree to this marriage?"

Zhao Yawei took the handkerchief from Ruying's hand and cleaned her face. The warm steam made her relax a lot.

"I have my own way. Also, has Fukang handled it clean?"

"The princess has dealt with it himself and has not left any living." Ruying sighed. Princess Fukang was really cruel. Xiao Si's wife and children were not let go. Even when she saw it, her heart couldn't help but tremble.

Zhao Yawei said "yes" and sat on the bed without changing her face. Ruying lowered the curtain, turned off another lamp, and stood on tiptoe to get out.

"Like an oriole." Zhao Yawei's voice seemed empty and far away in the dark bedroom. "The emperor is still with Dao Wen?"

Ruying's heart sank, and she turned to a light voice and replied, "Every year, the emperor has to bathe and clean himself, burn incense and say to him. Let's sleep, and she will accompany the emperor to worship the sky tomorrow, so she has to get up early."

There was no response in the tent for a long time. Just when Ruying thought she would not speak again, two extremely light words floated in the air, "Sleep."

Qiankun Palace, Alchemy Room

Emperor Xigan, Zhu Xidao, with his hair loose and his clothes in his middle, lay calmly on the warm mat on the ground, squinted his eyes and asked Du Yuanshan, the eunuch in front of the imperial court, "Have you sent all the things to the imperial concubine?"

Du Yuanshan laughed and said, "I've sent it back to the emperor. The imperial concubine likes it very much. She can't let go of the red sandalwood Buddhist beads."

"Well, she believes in Buddhism and has compassion. No matter how valuable the Buddhist beads are, it is useless to keep them. Let her use them to pray for the people of Xigan."

"Buddhism is a family. Isn't the emperor concerned about the people in the world? I saw that the emperor worked hard for state affairs in recent days and nights, and he lost a lot of weight. Your Majesty, you should protect the dragon body."

Zhu Xidao waved his hand and coughed twice. Du Yuanshan quickly handed over ginseng tea, but he pushed it away.

"I am not at ease. It is the end of the year, and there are many trivial matters. The Japanese pirates on the border are ready to move. Snow falls in the northwest and the people are displaced. Every day when I go to court, I hear ministers clamoring for relief supplies and disaster relief. Now that the treasury is empty, when they ask them to come up with a specific plan, they are all shirking each other, all of which are cunning things."

Du Yuanshan did not dare to answer the conversation, so he could only guess the holy intention in his heart, and his subordinates served him more and more cautiously.

"Emperor, which dynasty does not have natural disasters or man-made disasters? The emperor is a real dragon descending to earth, and he will be blessed by God. I, Xigan, will definitely have good weather and prosperity, and the country will be prosperous and the people will be safe. Your health in the dragon body is the blessing of Xigan and the blessing of the people."

"Your mouth." Zhu Xidao opened his eyes. He knew that this was just a compliment, but he felt much more relieved.

"Go and get me one of the golden elixirs that Master Wen had just refined. You are right. I must take good care of myself. The imperial concubine is still waiting for me to give Feng'er a marriage."

"Okay, I'll get it now."

Du Yuanshan took out a box of golden nanmu from the dark lattice on the wall, and five golden elixirs were neatly placed inside, all of which were newly refined by Taoist Wen today.

Carefully took out one and put it on the tray. Du Yuanshan tried the temperature of the tea again, and then sent it to Zhu Xidao.

Zhu Xi obeyed Jindan and lay down for a while before speaking, "I heard that the fourth brother left the palace tonight?"

Du Yuanshan raised his head when he heard this, took the teacup from Zhu Xidao, and smiled calmly, "Back to the emperor, I heard that the Fourth Highness has invited the second son of the General's Mansion and the second son of the Lord Fu to drink."

"Is that so? There are only a few of them?"

"The emperor is really a god-looking man, and he can't hide anything from you. In addition, there seems to be Princess Fukang and General Lu's only daughter Miss Lu."

Zhu Xidao glanced at Du Yuanshan and said, "The fourth brother is a love species."

Du Yuanshan hurriedly said, "The Fourth Prince may be thinking that he can marry his sweetheart soon, so he wants to take a few more glances."

"The imperial concubine rarely asks me for anything. Since I have spoken, I will naturally find a good marriage for Feng'er. I heard that Lu Zhan's daughter is quite pretty. If she looks like Lu Zhan, I'll let it go when I see this marriage."

"I'm lucky enough to see Miss Du, who looks very similar to Mrs. Lu, like a fairy, and very beautiful."

"Is that right?" Zhu Xi said with a little tired look on his face and said with a depressed expression, "Lu Zhan is so lucky. Then I will give his daughter to the fourth brother as his wife, which can be regarded as a reward for his hard work in leading troops to the north and the north and defending his country over the years."

"The emperor is wise, this is a great thing. If the general on the border knows this, the 200,000 army will not be very motivated and will be full of good news."

Zhu Xidao changed his posture and half-lying down. When he heard the word "good news", he asked, "When I count, should there be a war news coming?"

Seeing that the emperor was halfway up, Du Yuanshan found a thin piece of eyelids and was covered with a thin piece of water. He said, "Yes, it's time to come."

"Go down, come and call me at the hour of Mao."

"Yes, the old slave took his leave."

Du Yuanshan quietly retreated, looked up at the starry sky, thinking to himself, if it was a change of the sky, it would be better to go to Baohua Palace as soon as possible.

That night, Zhu Xidao slept extremely peacefully. In the dream, a pretty girl stretched out her hand to him and said with a smile, "Brother Zhu, I'm here."
