Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem

Chapter 257 No one is perfect

On this day, the emperor took some time off and came to the enclosure to watch the princes compete in riding and archery.

Hailan, Su Lujun and Gao Xiyue were originally sitting on the side terrace, eating snacks and chatting.

Seeing the emperor coming, several people hurriedly stood up to greet him.

As the eldest son, Yonghuang has already started a family and his personality has become more calm and reserved.

In such occasions, he did not take the initiative to pick the best, but gave the chance to stand out to his younger brothers.

The emperor had a keen eye and naturally saw Yonghuang's encouragement and love for his younger brothers. Therefore, although his archery skills were not outstanding, he still received praise from the emperor that he "had the demeanor of an elder brother."

Gao Xiyue was very pleased, "Your Majesty, Yonghuang has been very steady and filial since he got married.

Because of my illness, I cannot move around often, so Yonghuang often brings his wife to the palace to visit me.

I am deeply moved and would like to thank Your Majesty for making the relationship between me and Yonghuang a happy one."

The emperor gently helped Gao Xiyue up, and looked at her face, which was still beautiful despite her old age, with emotion in his heart.

"I still remember how arrogant and willful you were at the beginning. I thought you wanted to raise Yonghuang on a whim, but now it seems that you are sincere.

Seeing you and Yonghuang being so loving and filial to each other, I feel that I have done my duty to Chu Ying in the afterlife."

The Fu Cha Chu Ying mentioned by the emperor is Yonghuang's biological mother and also the emperor's first woman.

Although she died young due to complications during childbirth and the emperor no longer remembered her appearance, she still held a place in his heart.

Yongzhang was about the same height as Yonghuang and was almost old enough to get married.

The emperor patted his shoulder and said in a good mood, "Yong Zhang is getting stronger.

Among all my sons, you are the healthiest and have few illnesses or disasters. This shows how much Concubine Chun has put into raising you."

Since Su Lujun's miscarriage, she has hardly ever had a friendly conversation with the emperor. Seeing the emperor suddenly mention her, she was a little uncomfortable and obeyed to thank him.

I also heard from the emperor that he had chosen the gentle and dignified Wanyan to be Yongzhang's wife.

Su Lujun knew this Wanyan. Yong Zhang had been fond of her for a long time, and now the lovers had finally gotten married.

Su Lujun then smiled, and sincerely took Yongzhang's hand to express her gratitude again, "I thank the emperor for granting Yongzhang a marriage.

Yong Zhang will not disappoint the emperor's expectations and will definitely treat his wife well, and the couple will live in harmony for a long time."

The other princes congratulated Yongzhang again and again, and Yongrong, who was his brother from the same mother, clapped his hands happily.

Only Yongcheng stood aside with a gloomy face, pursed his lips, and said nothing.

The emperor was so happy that he did not notice Yongsheng. Instead, he praised Yongqi, who performed the best this time.

Yongqi originally wanted to keep a low profile and let Yongji take the spotlight, but Yongji didn't want to and just told him to play his part and behave normally, and not to give in.

Yongqi only said to Yongqi earnestly, "My martial arts skills are average. If I really beat you in the enclosure, people will think that I am bullying you by relying on the Empress Dowager.

I know you are doing this for my own good, to highlight my excellence. But no one is perfect, I am not as good as you in martial arts, so I am willing to admit defeat. However, when it comes to poetry, books and politics, I will not give in easily. "

The brothers were honest with each other, and Yongqi felt confident to show himself, winning first place in the hunting competition.

Although the emperor felt sorry that his legitimate son Yongqi did not win the first place, after listening to Yongqi's words, he was impressed by Yongqi's honesty and broad-mindedness.

Hailan had been accompanying him all the time, silently not saying a word.

After the emperor had finished instructing the princes, Jinzhong ran over and reported in a low voice that Concubine Ling had just practiced a new piece of music and wanted the emperor to appreciate it.

Hai Lan then spoke, "Your Majesty, we are now in Mulan Paddock, and although Lingpin's little song is elegant, it is a little inappropriate.

I heard that Yingpin and Ke Guiren have been practicing at the shooting range for a long time. Your Majesty, why don't you go and see them?"

The emperor frowned slightly, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

While hesitating, Su Lujun said, "Yes, Yingpin is pretty and bright, and Ke Guiren is heroic and dashing. The competition between the two of them is very interesting to me, a woman."

Gao Xiyue gently stroked the pearl tassels on her temples and said disdainfully, "Noble Concubine Chun is too good at praising people.

I only know that most women on the grassland are reckless, and only gentle and docile women like Lingpin can serve the emperor well. "

Hai Lan smiled and said, "Concubine Hui has been staying in Xianfu Palace all year round, and she has forgotten to go out and take a look around more often.

"Your Majesty, you have seen many gentle and docile women in the palace. Now that you have come to the enclosure, you should definitely prefer lively and vigorous women."

The two argued endlessly, and the emperor had a headache. He simply waved his hand, threw up his sleeves, and walked towards the shooting range.

But the emperor didn't know that as soon as he left, the two people who were quarreling smiled at each other and stopped talking.

Seeing how quickly the two changed their expressions, Su Lujun knew that their previous quarrel was just an act, and said helplessly, "Yingpin and Ke Guiren are begging us to help them win favor, and I don't know if we are doing the right thing."

Gao Xiyue was no longer the little girl who devoted herself to the emperor and was only interested in jealousy. She turned around leisurely, held Mo Xin's hand and was about to go back and sit down.

"Whether it's right or wrong, it doesn't matter. In this palace, there must be someone vying for the emperor's favor and currying favor with him.

If it wasn’t Concubine Ling, it would have been Concubine Ying or Concubine Ke.

Concubine Chun, we are all old enough to hold the emperor's grandchildren, why are we still worrying about what those young concubines are doing?"

Su Lujun was speechless for a moment, and then she heard Hai Lan laugh out loud, "What Concubine Hui said is very open-minded. Let's go back. I have to toast you today."

On the shooting range, Concubine Ying and Concubine Ke had already dressed up early and were waiting there in the sunlight.

The two of them were chatting and laughing, but when they saw Wei Yanwan following behind the emperor, their expressions changed immediately.

It turned out that Jinzhong revealed the news that the emperor was going to the shooting range to Wei Yanwan.

When it comes to vying for favor, Wei Yanwan has always taken the lead and refused to back down.

Since the emperor couldn't be invited, Wei Yanwan simply waited for the emperor on the road he had to take.

After a few soft and coquettish words, the emperor couldn't resist Wei Yanwan and let her follow him.

Yingpin was more reserved, while Ke Guiren came forward with the quiver, deliberately ignoring Wei Yanwan and only smiled sweetly at the emperor,

"Your Majesty, I and Yingpin have been waiting for you for a long time. Please come and shoot arrows with us."

The emperor was already itching to do something, so he naturally did not refuse.

After a few arrows, all of them hit the bull's eye, causing several concubines to applaud.

The emperor was excited and handed over a bow and arrow, asking Yingpin to try it. Yingpin naturally shot the bull's eye with one arrow, and the emperor praised her endlessly.

Concubine Ke looked at Wei Yanwan provocatively, "Sister Yingpin is good at riding and archery, I wonder how about Sister Lingpin?"
