Empress' Marshal's Concubine

Chapter 38 Lotus Cake

It has been three months since I came to Wushi Dynasty.

I am already familiar with and used to everything in this palace.

But today is the day Ye Qingruo leaves the palace, and it is also the day to say goodbye to Wu Zetian and the national teacher.

Everything has been prepared, and Wu Zetian will be given a big gift before leaving.

Compared with the virtuous concubine Gu Yue'er, the deeply hidden concubine De is even more dangerous.

Looking at the empty flower pond in the imperial garden, Ye Qingruo laughed.

It's winter, and when I was at home in previous years, I would always say that it was cold and it was snowing, and I was going home to hibernate.

But now, where is my home?

Ye Qingruo smiled wryly.

Let Zi Xun support him and walk slowly towards Fenglu Pavilion.

The cold wind was howling, if Ye Qing didn't notice the figure in white standing at the gate of the Yonglu arch in Meiyuan.

"The little table goes and tells Wang Xi that I will go to Fenglu Pavilion and concubine De to appreciate paintings." Ye Qing didn't use a sedan chair, but wore brocade shoes, walking slowly step by step, very slowly , the footsteps are very steady, just like she is in this harem, slowly growing, slowly standing firm, and then quietly leaving.

After hearing Ye Qingruo's words, Xiaozhuo turned around and ran away.

If Ye Qing was calculating the time, the little table went to report the letter to Wang Xi, knowing that he was looking for Concubine De, and was calling Wu Zetian, and when he arrived at Concubine De's Fenglu Pavilion, he was talking a few words, the time was about the same!

Ye Qingruo was planning in her heart, but her pace quickened unconsciously.

She has no patience, this harem is stuffy, she really can't bear this oppressive atmosphere, although Wu Zetian treats her very well, but compared with that doting, she prefers freedom.

Longing for free air!

She had had enough of this life of restraint in the harem, if she continued, she might go crazy!

Every day when I open my eyes, I start scheming with the concubines in the harem, even when I have a meal, I am very careful, very careful!

From morning to night, he kept fighting wits and courage with those concubines.

From time to time, he would beat Shangguan Wan'er to make her keep her own place.

It's really tiring.

If it wasn't for the national teacher giving me hope, I'm afraid I would really suffocate to death here.

The national teacher taught himself a lot of rules and survival skills in a different place in this world.

How many times she wished she was only dreaming!

Every time I fall asleep, I tell myself that when I wake up, I will return to modern times.

Every time I wake up, I see the same room and the same people as before I fell asleep...

Gradually, she has accepted this fact, and she fears that she will never be able to go back.

I really can't go back, so I must leave this palace that is like a cage even though it is well-clothed and well-fed!

She doesn't want to compete with so many people for one person.

Even if that person is the emperor...

In her eyes, he was just an ordinary person who looked good.

The national teacher promised herself that as long as she died, she would ask her father Ye Zichen to take out her body, and then she would send herself to the undead forest to practice.

Thinking that he has already reached the door of Fenglu Pavilion.

Nanny An stepped forward and knocked on the door, "Concubine Ning is here to visit Concubine De."

Maybe it's because these days I often come to drink tea with An Ran and learn painting, soon a maid inside opened the door.

"Greetings to Concubine Ning." The one who opened the door was Xue Cui, the maid of Concubine De's Fenglu Pavilion.

"Get up! Where's Sister Defei?" Ye Qingruo smiled gently.

"Master knows that Concubine Ning is coming soon, so I specially ordered this servant to make your favorite lotus cake." Xuecui closed the palace gate of Fenglu Pavilion, trotted a few steps and followed Ye Qingruo, smiling explain.

This Concubine Ning is gentle and magnanimous, and she is also quite generous in rewarding the people below.

Therefore, the eunuchs and maids of Fenglu Pavilion are very close to Ye Qingruo.

"Really? Elder sister really understands me!" She smiled extraordinarily happily, even her eyes narrowed into thin lines.Ye Qing entered the main hall of Fenglu Pavilion with gentle steps like lotus.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Defei Anran standing at the door, looking out!

"Sister, Qing Ruo is here to disturb you again! As soon as I got to the door, I smelled the smell of lotus cake! Qing Ruo's stomach is growling!" Ye Qingruo smiled innocently.

"Look at your gluttonous mouth! I know you're coming, and the lotus cake is ready! There's also your favorite cherry blossom tea, and people put more rock sugar on purpose." An Ran looked at Ye Qingruo and smiled slightly. .She has a different understanding of this favored Concubine Ning.

If Ye Qing didn't have any scheming plans, apart from being greedy, he wouldn't have any other problems.

It is rare to see such a straightforward person in this harem.

She hits it off very well with herself.

She often ran to see herself, and no matter how coldly she gave her, she always smiled and told herself what she saw and heard.

I still clearly remember that when she first came to her Fenglu Pavilion, it was rumors in the palace that Concubine Ning was arrogant and arrogant, relying on His Majesty's favor to run rampant in Zangyuxuan.

I was wary of her, afraid that she would come to me and have other plans.

But after getting along with her, I found that she was not as domineering as rumored, but too straightforward.

She doesn't get annoyed when I ignore her, she doesn't let her sit, and she doesn't get angry, she finds a place for herself to sit, and brings herself cakes and meals made by herself without paying attention.

"Sister, you hate it!" Ye Qingruo said so, but she smiled harmlessly on her face.

Turning back to Zi Xun with the fox warmer in his hand, he took An Ran's hand, walked in, sat on the kang, picked up the teapot with a smile and poured a bowl of tea for himself and An Ran.

"It's so cold outside, you still run to me... Your Majesty will feel bad if you freeze it! My sister can't afford that!" An Ran took the teacup that Ye Qingruo handed to him.

Knowing that Ye Qingruo is in favor now, she always makes fun of it.

An Ran also knew that Ye Qingruo was young and had never really been favored by Wu Zetian.

"Hmph! Elder sister knows how to make fun of me! This harem is suffocating, if I can't talk to my elder sister! It's really suffocating!" Ye Qingruo pouted, licking the cherry blossom tea in the teacup with the tip of her tongue, The cherry blossoms were picked by myself and given to An Ran.

It was she who taught An Ran to put rock sugar in the cherry blossom tea.

In order to make An Ran believe that he is a naive, romantic and unscheming person, it is exhausting to pretend to be a fool in front of her!

"Try the lotus cake, just out of the pan!" An Ran smiled lightly.

The small kitchen in Fenglu Pavilion was requested by Ye Qingruo and Wu Zetian.

For Ye Qing's sake, Wu Zetian said, go to Fenglu Pavilion, if you can't eat hot lotus cake, Wu Zetian just agrees without saying a word.

This favor really surprised An Ran.

Originally, I just wanted to see what Yeqing was planning.It was only after getting along that Ye Qingruo simply wanted to please herself, and wanted to learn how to draw with herself and eat a pastry together.

"Then I won't be polite." Ye Qingruo smiled embarrassedly, reached out and grabbed a piece of snow-white pastry shaped like a lotus flower, and put it in her mouth.

"Sister, eat slowly. This plate of lotus cake is prepared for you! No one will grab it from you!" An Ran watched as he ate the lotus cake, his melon-seeded face was as big as a steamed bun. Bao, with two bulging cheeks, looks so cute.

"Sister, you can eat it too! If I eat it by myself, I'll be embarrassed! The hot lotus cake is super delicious! The lotus cake made here by my sister is the best!" Ye Qingruo wrapped her lips with a clatter, Like a greedy cat, he licked the corner of his mouth with his tongue. The lotus cake was ground into fine rock sugar powder.

"I don't want to eat, I'm afraid of getting fat. Look at you, it's much rounder." An Ran put down the teacup in his hand, and looked at Ye Qingruo who was eating and smiling.

She suddenly envied this woman!

She can smile so heartily just by eating a simple snack.

I don’t ask for anything every day, just thinking about what to eat, researching what to eat...

Learning to paint is not for the sake of elegance, but for the sake of being able to draw lifelike things...

This harem is full of fights, only she lives freely and happily.

Because she lives for herself, does not represent any power, and does not compete for the favor of any power.

If His Majesty spoils her, she will eat more delicious food. If His Majesty does not spoil her, she will eat her share...

Let me ask, is there anyone else in this palace who can live a comfortable and contented life like her.

She doesn't think about anything, just the moment, she doesn't think about tomorrow's things, she doesn't worry about her appearance getting old, she will become a useless abandoned child, she doesn't care about being fat, she doesn't have a good figure, and she can't make Wu Zetian look more With two eyes, you don't want to win people's hearts and make people use you...

A person who can go to the lotus pond to pick lotus flowers by rowing boats in cold weather in order to eat a lotus cake is either too scheming or a fool who can die for eating!

Various temptations proved that Ye Qingruo is a fool who would risk his life just to eat.

"Sister, what are you thinking? If you don't eat, I really ate it all! The lunch was not delicious, so I didn't eat a few mouthfuls. I just thought about coming to my sister's place to eat lotus cake in the afternoon. Sister I can’t get tired of the lotus cake made here for so long.” Ye Qingruo grabbed a piece of lotus cake with one hand while talking, and handed one piece to An Ran’s mouth, and one piece was stuffed into his mouth, mouthful As he ate, the sweet fragrance of the lotus between his lips and teeth caused An Ran's peaceful heart to fluctuate a little.

If I could meet such a person earlier, maybe I would not be willing to come to this deep palace, planning everywhere, and everything is calculated.But it's too late!

Although I am making friends with this innocent child in front of me now, just to win her over, and win over her father Ye Zichen, the Marshal Marshal of the Wushi Dynasty behind her, but I don't know when I started to treat Ye Qingruo more. Spread love and concern from the heart.

I have also thought about it, maybe if Ye Qing is older, she will be like these women in the harem, doing everything and using any means in order to win favor.

But looking at the girl in front of her who ate a lotus cake and smiled like she got a baby, she couldn't imagine that this person would also change...
