Favorite Concubine [Rebirth in Yuanchun]

The fifteenth night of the first lunar month.

Several staff members in the study hadn't left yet.

Jia Yuanchun was outside, sitting on the couch peeling pine nuts.

After she finished talking that day, she didn't have a deep talk with the emperor's grandson.Looking at it these few days, the emperor's grandson is indeed busy.But it is more likely that she made an impossible request, so that the emperor did not know how to refuse it so that she would not be embarrassed.

Originally, the grandson of the emperor of a country, if all goes well, will become the future emperor, that is, he himself is willing to marry only one in his life, and he has to ask the ministers who are loyal to the emperor and the country to agree, and whether the rules of the ancestors above are allowed Woolen cloth.

When it really came to this point, Jia Yuanchun lost the depression he had before, and his heart fell to the ground.

She was thinking endlessly, and the peeled pine nuts gradually piled up into hills on the plate.

The door of the inner room was gently pushed open, and several staff members retreated backwards.

Out of courtesy, Jia Yuanchun stayed on the bed and stood up.

Zhou Yongcheng walked at the back, nodded and smiled at her.

After everyone went out, Jia Yuanchun sat down to peel the pine nuts again.

The door of the inner room was not closed properly, looking in from Jia Yuanchun, one could just see the back of the emperor's grandson sitting in front of the desk.She squeezed a pine nut between her fingers, looked into the study room, and subconsciously tried to split the small opening of the pine nut with her other hand. After rubbing it twice, the pine nut fell to the peeled place. Heap went.

She retracted her gaze and picked out the shelled pine nut, but when she looked at it, there was no crack.

Jia Yuanchun frowned slightly, and gently threw the unopened pine nuts into the candlestick, the flames flourished for a while, and there was a faint crackling sound.

But the grandson of the emperor came out at this time, he stopped beside Yuan Chun, and sniffed it with some doubts, "What's the smell?"

Jia Yuanchun hurriedly stood up, and said with a smile, "I just burned a pine nut that didn't open my mouth. It must be the fragrance of pine oil."

The emperor's grandson smiled, "The punishment of the female historian is so severe, the suspect will not speak, and will burn it." His eyes fell on the plate beside him, and he focused slightly.

Jia Yuanchun smiled as usual, pushed the plate in front of him, and said: "Your Highness has been busy all night, do you want to refresh your mind?"

The emperor's grandson sat down a little too late when he heard the words. He said something casually at noon, but Yuan Chun had memorized it all.

He looked at Yuan Chun unobtrusively. Under the candlelight, the girl's eyes were slightly bruised.

In the past ten days, she has lost weight.

"Go and arrange it, and sit here alone for a while." The emperor's grandson turned his eyes on her face and fell to the side.

Jia Yuanchun froze for a moment, stood up and gave a little blessing, "Yes, Your Highness." He also slowly withdrew.

Xiao Gao stood guard outside the door, and was a little surprised to see her coming out alone, and silently asked her, "Where is Your Highness?"

Jia Yuanchun smiled and shook his head.

Do you think it's against the rules for the two of you to sit opposite each other in the middle of the night, or do you want to be quiet when you see her upset?Jia Yuanchun couldn't guess, and didn't have the energy to guess.She couldn't sleep well at night these past few days, she couldn't fall asleep when she touched the pillow, and she always dreamed too much when she fell asleep.

In the study, the emperor's grandson sat alone in the shadow of the lamp, picked up the pine nuts peeled by Yuanchun one by one, chewed them slowly, and let the fragrance permeate between his lips and teeth.

He thought of the current situation in the DPRK and China, thought of the resistance that might be encountered in the promotion of new rice seeds, thought of...

That night, Yuan Chun cried and tremblingly said in front of him, "If you want me to marry, then I will be the only one from now on."

He is the grandson of the emperor.

In this world, there is nothing he can't do.

×××

After the first lunar month, the emperor's grandson is even busier.

Jia Yuanchun followed Aunt Liao and often walked around the harem on behalf of the grandson's palace, and he also vaguely smelled something.

Xiao Feng gently coaxed her daughter, as if she mentioned it casually, "The last time the emperor came to me, he opened a booklet of last year's list of outstanding girls, and presumably he wanted to marry someone else."

I met Princess An Yue at Concubine Zhou's place.

She complained to Yuan Chun that she was recently forced into marriage by her parents, but after all, she was favored, and she just made trouble with the wife of the county king.

"I heard that there is another commotion in the palace. Do the math, His Royal Highness is also out of the filial piety period, and the marriage is just around the corner." Princess An Yue sighed, holding a winter jasmine branch in her hand, and the end was pressed against her cheek "Actually, I don't have a deep affection for the emperor's grandson."

Jia Yuanchun looked up at her.

Princess An Yue raised her eyebrows, "What? You don't believe me?" She raised the winter jasmine branch in her hand, as if to beat Jia Yuanchun, "Think about it, I haven't actually seen the emperor a few times. I was fourteen or fifteen years old, and when I knew I was going to get married, I didn't want to. Not for anything else, I just felt that other men were not good enough for me. "

Jia Yuanchun laughed, this is a typical way of thinking of Princess An Yue.

"It would be fine if I were a princess, but I'm just a princess, and I can't recruit a son-in-law. In the future, my husband and son-in-law must have a roommate—think about it, how disgusting, I can stop it, but how tired? After much deliberation, there is only one grandson of the emperor. If I marry him, with his status, character and appearance, even if there are a few more women, I will not be at a disadvantage." Princess An Yue sighed again, "But look In the current situation, it is impossible for me to be accused of marrying the emperor's grandson. For other people, if you look around, the young and the young, the old and capable can be older than my father, marry them It’s also filling in the house—my mother would never agree to it.”

During Jia Yuanchun's years of knowing her, he only knew that she was obsessed with the emperor's grandson, but he didn't know what she really thought in her heart.She thought for a while, and said: "You don't want to marry someone who is too young, but you also want someone who is not too old and has real skills. I have someone here."

Princess An Yue glanced at her disbelievingly, "The young talents in the capital city have all been screened by my mother, and I rejected them all. Who else do you have?"

Jia Yuanchun smiled and said, "Did the Seventh Prince also be rejected by you?"

Princess An Yue paused and said with a smile, "This person is really not on my mother's list."

Jia Yuanchun teased with a smile, "Really?"

Princess An Yue gave her a white look, "This shows that arranging me to marry the Seventh Prince is not in line with the interests of our Dongping County Prince's Mansion. My family and the Seventh Prince are not on the same path. It is impossible."

Jia Yuanchun didn't expect this episode.

Princess An Yue tilted her head and thought for a while, "Even if you don't talk about the family affairs, just talk about myself, I don't want to marry the Seventh Prince."

"Why is that?" Jia Yuanchun wondered: "The status of the Seventh Prince is almost the same as that of His Royal Highness, he is not very old, he is still unmarried, and he is deeply loved by the emperor, and he is not ugly. It is rare among unmarried princes and grandchildren It's gone."

"The Seventh Prince...how should I say it?" Princess An Yue frowned and thought about adjectives, "Too proud, and a bit sinister, he is quite shameless when he does things."

Jia Yuanchun was amused by her, "You're the only one who dares to say that."

"In fact, people who are officials and butchers are a little bit like this. They feel that they are superior to others - arrogance; they have read too many sage books and are embarrassed to show it clearly - they are playing dirty tricks; they are rushing to fame and fortune - don't The face is also common. The Seventh Prince is still a little better here." Princess An Yue shook the winter jasmine branch in her hand, pondered and said slowly: "The key is that there is an emperor's grandson to compare with, otherwise, the Seventh Prince I will Maybe we can make do with it.”

Jia Yuanchun smiled and said: "Listen to what you said, all the princes and grandsons in the city are the same vegetables grown in your farm. You can eat whatever you want."

"Isn't it!" Princess An Yue's eyebrows danced for a moment, and then sighed: "It's a pity that the emperor's grandson didn't grow up in my Zhuangzi."

Princess An Yue did have the capital to choose. The few above her were brothers who were direct relatives. Coupled with the intertwined marriages, the entire Dongping County Palace was like a giant tree with luxuriant branches.Princess An Yue was born beautiful, and she was bright and generous when holding it. She was truly a daughter of all families.

When she marries the grandson of the emperor or the seventh prince, it is considered a well-matched marriage.

It's a pity that the Prince's Mansion of Dongping County belongs to Prince Jing's family. Although they follow the emperor on the surface, in private...

But Shui Li, the eldest son of Prince Jing's mansion, is already married.

"Hey, in short, I won't be able to marry as the grandson of the emperor. According to me, it's better to let you have it than to take advantage of other women." Princess An Yue sighed aside.

Jia Yuanchun whispered, "I'm not you."

"What's this?" Princess An Yue looked at her, "You haven't given up on the idea of ​​being a female historian for the rest of your life, have you?"

Jia Yuanchun hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Princess An Yue took a long breath, pointed at her and said repeatedly: "I can't be stupid! I can't be stupid!"

×××

On February [-], the dragon looked up.

Jia Yuanchun was teaching the parrot to speak on the porch.

Someone from the palace told her to go to Ci'an Palace.

The one who came was Rufen who used to play with the maid who served Jia Yuanchun.

"Do you know what's going on?" Jia Yuanchun asked on the road. She hadn't seen Rufen for more than a year. The little girl's complexion was originally yellowish, but she looked much paler now.

"Prince Jing's concubine is here, and I'm talking with the empress dowager—I'm calling you, maybe I'm talking about you?" Rufen smiled back, more calm than the previous two years.

It's Xie Li again.

Jia Yuanchun expected nothing good.

really.

The Empress Dowager smiled and gave her a set of honors, and smiled and threw down a thunderbolt, "You have made great achievements in serving the emperor's grandson, and the decree of bestowing a marriage will come down in a few days."

Xie Li was on the side, also smiling, and added, "There is also the girl from Jiang Hanlin's family, with you."

What can Jia Yuanchun do?I had no choice but to accept the reward with a smile.

Xie Li wanted to come out with her, laughing and saying, "I've seen that younger sister too, her name is Jiatang. She used to set up a stage in the mansion, and she came here twice with her mother." She wanted to marry into Prince Jing's mansion to be the heir's son and side concubine, but unexpectedly, she was accused of being the emperor's grandson, "This Jiang Jiatang is born beautiful and behaves generously. Being your sister is not a loss to you."

Jiang Jiatang?Concubine Zhen from the past...

Jia Yuanchun sighed in his heart, people from the previous life slowly appeared again.

"Concubine Shizi, you can send it here." Jia Yuanchun took two steps away politely, and gave Xie Li a blessing.

Xie Li held her back, turned his eyes around her face, and said with a smile: "You don't feel well, but you don't have to hide it, I won't laugh at you."

Jia Yuanchun was quiet for a while, then raised his eyes and asked her, "Is the little Princess okay?"

Xie Li gave birth to a girl, who was premature.I heard that it was during the first lunar month, Xie Li slipped in the snow, it didn't matter at that time, when he went back and started it at night, he almost killed two people.Although it was saved in the end, the little princess was a little weak.

Xie Li choked, his expression darkened slightly, but the jealousy in his eyes became more and more bright.

Jia Yuanchun was upset at the moment, so he stabbed her, turned and left.

The wind in February was still a bit chilly, and Jia Yuanchun felt cold while walking.

As he walked and thought, Jia Yuanchun felt his hypocrisy.

It's really hypocritical to say "If you want me to marry, then I will be the only one from now on".

She turned around the long palace wall, sucking the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief without any trace.When the time comes, what else can she do other than follow the emperor's will?

It was only because of the favor of the emperor's grandson that she was so unscrupulous that she said such rebellious words.

In the previous life, when she married Shui Li, he already had a wife; later Shui Li became the emperor, and the harem was filled with beautiful and beautiful wives. Although she was uncomfortable, she could bear it.

In this life, whenever she thought of sharing the grandson of the emperor with other women, she would feel nauseated in her chest and mouth, and her heart ached.

Princess An Yue felt that only the emperor's grandson could make her willing to work with other women, but she felt that the world was so big that there was only one emperor's grandson, so she could not share it with other women.

Jia Yuanchun staggered a few steps and nearly fell.She propped her arm on the palace wall, her forehead resting on her arm, and in a slight dizziness, she thought sweetly and a little bit sourly, yes, she was spoiled by His Highness, and she added extravagant expectations on top of extravagant expectations. ?

When Jia Yuanchun returned to Taisun Palace, Bixi and Baoqin came forward with concern, asking why Ci'an Palace wanted her.

"Just talk to me." Jia Yuanchun didn't want to talk too much, so he put it off, and still stood on the porch teaching the parrot to talk.

Aunt Liao came over at some point, watched her feeding the parrot, and asked with a smile, "I heard that the eldest concubine of Prince Jing's residence is also in Ci'an Palace?"

When did the news about Ci'an Palace spread so quickly?

Jia Yuanchun said calmly, "Yes."

Aunt Liao looked at her with that kind of profound eyes.

Jia Yuanchun just didn't know, after the last time she quarreled with the emperor's grandson in the study, she recalled that Aunt Liao must have told the emperor's grandson about her encounter with Shui Li in the harem.At this moment, she just pretended not to see Aunt Liao's gaze, and did not take the initiative to speak.

Aunt Liao said again: "Nvshi will always be the master of our grandson's palace in the future, and it is safer to avoid some things."

Jia Yuanchun smiled and said, "Don't say that, what kind of tablet am I?" After all, he has served the emperor's grandson for nearly 20 years. Aunt cares.

Aunt Liao hit a soft nail, and simply opened the skylight to speak brightly, "Nvshi, you are His Highness's man after all, and some unfinished things in the past should be put aside, otherwise, everyone will lose face."

Jia Yuanchun pursed his lips, but said nothing.

Aunt Liao said again: "In the past few years, I have noticed everything you have done. Everything else is perfect. If there is a mistake in this one, it will never be repaired."

Jia Yuanchun was rather annoyed, Aunt Liao decided that she and Shui Li were not clear.She smiled, and said kindly: "Auntie is right."

Baoqin opened the door and came out to dry the handkerchiefs. Seeing Aunt Liao was there, she came over to salute.

Seeing this, Aunt Liao chatted with Baoqin and left.

Baoqin looked at Yuanchun and asked, "What's the matter with you? Your face is pale."

Yuan Chun said nothing.

Baoqin asked again, "But what did Aunt Liao say just now?"

Jia Yuanchun smiled slightly, and said in a low voice: "Aunt Liao said that there is a woman who is getting married, but she is still entangled with her original lover. She is very uncomfortable with it." She supported the porch pillar and slid slowly on the low railing.

Baoqin heard the words and said: "Why come here to tell you such a thing. Miss, has you ever heard such a thing? Aunt Liao is also true." She bent down carefully, supported Jia Yuanchun, and asked: "But dizzy? I'll bring you a cup of tea." She trotted to get the tea.

Yuan Chun sat alone on the porch, looking at the remaining snow at the corner of the eaves, listening to the parrot reciting the poem he had just learned, "The girl picking lotus by the Ruoye River, laughing at the lotus and sharing the conversation with people", in a trance, he felt that the figure seemed empty, Only a shell remains.

×××

Imperial Physician Hu, who had not been here for some time, reappeared in Taisun Palace.

This means that the emperor's grandson's leg disease has occurred again.

Prescribe medicine, administer needles, and apply medicine.

Aunt Liao stood by and asked in distress, "What's the matter?"

The grandson of the emperor just lay down with his eyes closed and didn't speak.

Aunt Liao didn't dare to ask anymore, she went out by herself, walked around twice, and found Yuanchun again.

"Your Highness has a leg problem again, and Nushi should take care of it." After half a day, the fine wrinkles on Aunt Liao's face seemed to have deepened a lot.

It was as if the unpleasant conversation of the afternoon had never happened.

Jia Yuanchun got up and went to the grandson's bedroom.

Seeing that it was her who came, the emperor's grandson was slightly taken aback.

Jia Yuanchun didn't come to his dormitory for a few days, Xiao Gao served him for the past two months.

"Why are you here?" asked the emperor grandson.

Jia Yuanchun walked over slowly, and saw that his cheeks were flushed sickly, his lips were a little pale, and he didn't look very good.

She thought about it, and said the truth, "I want to see you."

The emperor's grandson didn't expect her to say that, and his heart was a little shaken. There seemed to be a layer of water in his eyes looking at her, which was very touching.

While talking, Yuan Chun sat down beside his bed and tilted his head to look at the medicine on his knee.

"Don't look." The emperor's grandson held her hands, not to make her turn around.

The two hadn't held hands for a long time, and this time they were both touched.

Yuan Chun followed his words and said, "Why 'don't watch'?"

The emperor's grandson smiled and said: "The color is dirty, I'm afraid it will stain your eyes."

"Nonsense, why is the good medicine for your legs dirty?" Yuan Chun smiled at him, but didn't have to turn his head to look.

There was a moment of silence, but they still held hands.

Both of them looked at each other with unknowing smiles on their faces.

Yuan Chun said first, "What are you laughing at?"

The grandson of the emperor looked at her with a smile, thought for a while, and said softly: "There is someone who is willing to let Gu get close, Gu is very happy."

Feeling a little shy, Yuan Chun looked away, stayed silent for a while, and said softly: "Today, the empress dowager passed me on."

"Oh?" The emperor's grandson slowly half sat up.

Yuan Chun lowered her head, put the pillow under his waist, still didn't look at him, and continued: "I've been rewarded with a face." She pursed her lips, not wanting to say the following words.

The emperor's grandson held her hand slightly and said in a low voice: "Don't worry, the matter has been resolved."

Yuan Chun was a little surprised, she raised her eyes and bumped into Taisun's smile.

"This marriage was just a whim of the emperor's grandfather. If he doesn't agree to it, he will let it go." The emperor's grandson said it very easily, as if it was really just a matter of one sentence.

Yuan Chun knew that it was not so easy to do.Little Feng's family and Princess An Yue both sensed the movement, and the empress dowager told her personally, it must be that the emperor has made up his mind; how could it be an easy thing to make the emperor change his mind?

She bit her lower lip and looked at her grandson with tears in her eyes.

The grandson of the emperor held her hand, shook it twice, and said kindly: "Really. I only said that I want to do some practical things first, and then talk about marriage--the emperor's grandfather is also happy to see it."

Jia Yuanchun listened with tears in his eyes, and suddenly asked, "Why did your leg disease recur?"

The emperor's grandson lowered his eyelashes, remained silent for a second, and said lightly, "Maybe it's because of the bad weather."

"I asked Imperial Physician Hu before I came here." Jia Yuanchun glared at the grandson.

Doctor Hu could tell at a glance that the new swelling was due to kneeling for a long time.

The grandson of the emperor said helplessly: "It's a matter in the court. I have a disagreement with my grandfather and have a dispute." After he finished speaking, he glanced at Yuan Chun quietly.

But seeing Yuan Chun looking at him quietly, hearing what he said, he only let out a "huh".

The emperor's grandson was a little relieved.

But Yuan Chun said again: "If there is a next time, you should do it."

The emperor's grandson looked at her.

Yuan Chun also looked at the grandson of the emperor.

The eyes of both of them are a little complicated.

Yuan Chun turned his head slightly, and saw his bent knees out of the corner of his eye, and felt pain in his heart, sobbing in a low voice: "For my little thought, what is it that makes you suffer so much?"

The emperor's grandson patted her hand and comforted her: "There's nothing wrong with Gu, it's just scary to look at."

Yuan Chun cried and fell into Taisun's arms.

The emperor's grandson's arms stiffened, then slowly fell back, wrapped around Yuan Chun's waist, and said slowly in a low voice: "Gushi doesn't want you to be reluctant. Now Gu is not fully sure, so I dare not promise lightly " He lowered his head, put his lips next to Yuan Chun's ear, and whispered, "Wait for two years alone, okay?"

Yuan Chun raised his face.

The grandson of the emperor gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looked at her deeply, and said slowly: "I will wait for two years alone, and I promise you to be alone in the world."
