Atypical heroine [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 67 Xie Huairou [6]
This time, the courtiers were arguing about choosing a husband and servant.
Ji Yu suddenly delivered an edict to imitate Xiao Jun's time when he was in power, be diligent and caring for the people, and regard the severe drought in Jizhou as a national disaster. At this time, it is not appropriate to start construction and build a new palace.
So the primary election was postponed, and the selection of husbands and servants was reduced to once every two years, in order to ask God to show mercy and rain.
They quarreled like this, and there was no clear winner.
When Ji Yu's order was issued, no one objected for a while, and the important officials looked around, all holding their breath, waiting for others to react first.
After waiting for a long time, no one said a word, led by Sima Zhong and Xie Huairou.
In the end, in silence, the selection of husband and servant ended.
Ji Yu is the empress, and women can only conceive once a year, which means that there are not many children under her knees, and the offspring are almost only born to the emperor's wife.
The rest of the servants, in the final analysis, are just things to relieve boredom and entertainment, and they don't have much other functions.The position of the emperor's husband is too important.
That's why the ministers who wanted to send their son into the palace made such a noise.
Under this wonderful balance, another natural disaster is at hand.
When Ji Yu said that he would postpone the selection of a husband and servant, none of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty dared to take the lead in objecting rashly.
"..."
With a faint smile on Ji Yu's lips, he lowered his eyes, "Are you still playing?"
Shangshu Pushe couldn't help it, so he stood up first and bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty is so pure and simple and loves the people. It is really a blessing for the country, but the issue of children and heirs is related to the foundation of the country. I feel that if you don't build a building and hold a big banquet simply, You can also choose a husband first..."
Seeing him standing up, Ji Yu picked up the ancient square-headed black-bone lacquer fan to play with. The ebony side bones of the palm bamboo and the ebony fan bones felt warm to the touch.
When she waved the folding fan, she happened to interrupt Shang Shupu's words, "It's not right."
"His Majesty……"
Ji Yu interrupted him again, "A while ago, my aunt wanted me to marry Princess Fujia, but I was thinking hard that there was no suitable candidate, so why did I forget... Zishen Yushu Linfeng is really right for Fujia."
Therefore, Ji Yu bestowed a marriage on the spot, and entered an official position for his son.
With the fan open, the golden light refracted on the fan surface scattered with gold leaf, bouncing and bouncing, reflecting in her smiling eyes, full of brilliance.
Shangshu Pushe was speechless for a while, thanking Shengen.
So far, there is no son in his family who is suitable for entering the palace, so there is nothing to say.
The morning will be back.
Ji Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled, condescendingly, his gaze met Xie Huairou who was standing at the forefront of the officials.
Xie Huairou lowered his eyes, avoiding her gaze.
—
Inside the hall.
Zicuckoo opened the brocade box, carefully and quickly put the new incense sticks into the incense burner, and the rising green smoke quickly brought out a pleasant fragrance.
The purple jade on the side brings freshly brewed tea.
"Your Majesty, try this new tea."
Ji Yu pushed away the pile of memorials, half lying on the table in a daze in boredom, "Mmm."
"These booklets are boring after reading for a long time," Hongyu bent down to pick up the booklet that accidentally dropped on the ground, seeing that she was not happy, she coaxed her softly, "Your Majesty, can you go outside for a walk? Listen It is said that in the Pear Garden Hall, all the pear trees have bloomed."
"No," Ji Yu rested his cheeks without thinking, and said in a sleepy tone, "What's so interesting about those pale and pale Mai Tai flowers."
"Well...then I heard that the newly planted hibiscus in Chen Taifei's palace is in bloom, but it's bright and red, and it's very festive." Hongyu put the tea cup in front of her, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, take a couple of sips of tea first, and then go out for a walk How about a step?"
"Forget it, it's time for trouble."
Ji Yu shook his head, put his cheek on the desk, closed his eyes and took a nap.
After a while, I couldn't help but sigh again.
Zijuan and Ziyu looked at each other, both puzzled, why they were so unhappy for no reason.
"Your Majesty, would you like to eat?"
"I'm not hungry."
"Maidmaid go get a few books to relieve His Majesty's boredom?"
"I do not want to see."
"..."
"Then His Majesty can..."
Ji Yu "I want to be quiet."
The maids fell silent for a moment and looked at each other.
Shu Jing, the female officer behind Ziyu, happened to hear it, and she stepped forward with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, Jing Jing is here."
Ji Yu casually threw a memorial at her, without smiling, and only said three words, "Hurry up and work."
Shu Jing hurriedly restrained her jokes, saluted, and sat under the maid's service, sorting through piles of memorials.
The female officials next to him were busy, and Ji Yu dozed off for a while with nothing to do.
After a while, Shu Jing asked in a low voice, "Did the Right Prime Minister not come today?"
Zicuckoo was about to answer.
Ji Yu suddenly snorted coldly, "What's the matter, won't you be able to deal with the memorial without Xie Huairou?"
Listening to her tone, Shu Jing hurriedly said, "I dare not, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"..."
After recollecting it, Ziyu said in a low voice when she was sending the ladies out of the palace, "At noon, Your Majesty asked to see His Majesty, saying that he was busy with business and had no time to go to the palace every day to report. His Majesty smiled and did not say anything, and agreed. But after she left, I started to get upset."
Shu Jing hurriedly nodded, cupped her hands and said, "Thank you for letting me know."
Ziyu turned back, still thinking about how to make Ji Yu happy.
"Your Majesty wants to read Lin Weng's collection of poems," Zijuan came over and pulled her sleeves and said, "Quickly look for it. I've been searching for a long time but I haven't found it yet."
"Lin Weng's poem?"
Lin Weng was a celebrity who resigned and returned home after being relegated to Xijing. His poems are full of talent, but absurd.Only when Ji Yu is in a good mood will he want to take it out and read it for fun.
Ziyu looked at Ji Yu suspiciously.
She was holding the memorial, sipping tea, with a happy look on her face, she got up and said, "Show me, I'm going to Chen Taifei's palace to enjoy the flowers."
"..."
—
Xie Huairou was able to avoid Ji Yu during this time, although she didn't show any signs, but she couldn't make her realize that she really didn't.After several teasings, she agreed to her resignation.
Xie Huairou went to court today and returned to the mansion very early.
The servants were astonished.
Xie Huairou didn't explain anything, everything was handled as usual, but the location changed from Ji Yu's palace to his own mansion.
The setting sun was fading, and she was still a little unaccustomed to eating alone.
I don't know if she can get used to it.
……
There was a box of scar removal ointment next to Xie Huairou's pillow. Every night before going to bed, she would carefully apply it on the scar on her shoulder, and she didn't know what it meant.
The wound was not shallow in the first place, and it healed too slowly, leaving a scar inevitably after the scab fell off.
It's not really noticeable at all.
"Sisters are not allowed to have scars," she said.
Knowing that she was just talking casually.
Xie Huairou lay on the bed and closed her eyes. She wanted to rest early, but the image of her going to see Ji Yu couldn't help but appear in her mind.
In fact, I thought she would refuse.
—
The next day, the sun was rising in the sky, Xie Huairou had already washed and changed clothes.
Before going to court, she would sit back at the table and continue to deal with those never-ending memorials, at least reading them all.Although she no longer has to go to the palace to report to her face every day, she still can't help rehearsing the words of the report in her mind.
For a moment, she raised her hand and rubbed the center of her eyebrows, holding back a sigh.
—
Morning today.
Ji Yu decreed that Luo Shiyan should be promoted as a guest minister in white, and that she could participate in the government affairs.The position of Baiyi Keqing is very special. He has an official salary but no official seal. It is usually used to reward young and promising children from poor families.
At this time, there was still some days before the palace examination, several Taifus looked at each other, but none of them had heard of who Na Luo Shiyan was.
Only Prime Minister Zuo stood up tremblingly and said, "Is this person's name the same as Concubine Chen?"
With a smile on the corner of Ji Yu's lips, he nodded and said, "The one I'm promoting is Chen Taifei Luo Shiyan."
"..."
All officials were in an uproar.
Regardless of civil servants or military officials, there was unanimous opposition, and even her confidant Cheng Jiezhi couldn't help but stand up and take the lead in admonishing, "Dayan has iron laws, and concubines in the harem are not allowed to interfere in the government affairs. I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"
"No way!"
"Think twice, Your Majesty..."
Ji Yu waved his hands to signal them to be silent, and with a faint smile on his face, he said slowly, "The iron law is right, wanton meddling in politics in the harem will definitely lead to disasters for the country. live or live back to her mother's house..."
"Your Majesty!" Cheng Jiezhi immediately understood what she meant, and retorted, "Even if the former emperor has passed away, even if the Concubine Chen has no children, the Concubine Chen is still the Concubine Chen. How can concubines remarry like ordinary people? And leave."
"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, Your Majesty!"
"His Majesty!"
Hundreds of officials didn't buy it for this rhetoric, and they knelt down one after another to admonish them.
Many even took off the black hats on their heads and put them on the ground to show their determination to speak out.
The opposition was too great.
Even Ji Yu couldn't do anything for a moment, she was silent for a moment, she pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Since you have no other important matters, let's retreat."
"..."
When Xie Huairou walked out, he noticed the eyes of the ministers around him.Just when she didn't need to go to the palace to report, a concubine Chen appeared inexplicably in the harem but wanted to interfere in the government affairs.
You don't have to listen to them to guess what's going on in their minds.
They must be talking about how much the matter of Concubine Chen has to do with her, and what they want.
Xie Huairou's long eyelashes drooped down, his face was so calm that no distraction could be seen.Immediately turned around.
"..."
She wanted to have an audience, but found a rare long queue outside the hall.
They were all ministers who refused to leave. They were begging to see His Majesty, and they had to make her take back that absurd edict.
All the way she walked, she was stared at brightly.
Normally when Xie Huairou went to court, she would enter first as the ministers who were surrounded by female officials and passed outside the hall. She wanted to meet His Majesty, but she was never blocked from the door, and she didn't even have to wait.
Not so today.
Ji Yu didn't see anyone, even Xie Huairou was blocked outside.
Feel the sights and whispers from all around you.
"The prime minister on the right was also kept out."
Isn't she available for audience at any time?What happened? "
"I don't know, why not..."
"Go and ask."
"..."
Xie Huairou ignored the colleagues who spoke to her secretly, just stood outside and waited together.Until the sky gradually darkened, many ministers left one after another, preparing to speak again tomorrow morning.
Xie Huairou kept waiting, the sunset glow in the sky dyed the clouds brilliantly.She knew that the female officials were handling the government affairs at this moment, and it was coming to an end.
In half a moment, at least she could see the female officer beside her.
……
Xie Huairou waited until the female officers came out, and then left, without saying a word.
Chen Mianmian couldn't help but stop, saluted and said, "My lord."
Xie Huairou raised his lips and smiled, and didn't ask directly, but just said, "The calligraphy and paintings presented by the prefect of Wu County a few days ago, can your majesty choose the one you like?"
"Oh, yes," Chen Mianmian nodded, "Your Majesty especially likes the landscape paintings drawn by Lu Xuan."
"Have you taken it out for tasting today?"
"That's right..."
Chen Mianmian was dumb for a moment. According to the law, these female officials around His Majesty are strictly forbidden to contact the courtiers and disclose the contents of the court affairs.
But Xie Huairou is too special.
They usually deal with the memorial together, so that she completely forgot to be careful.
"My lord, I think I still have important things to do, so I'll take a step ahead."
Chen Mianmian turned pale, and hurriedly said goodbye, "Please forgive me, my lord."
Xie Huairou looked at her back, her steps slowed down, wondering if she was in the palace admiring paintings this afternoon.Could it be that the matter of Concubine Chen was just a whim to make it interesting?
This is the most extraordinary imperial decree since she took the throne, and why.
—
Next, Ji Yu did not go to court early for three consecutive days.
It's as if the imperial decree of promoting Luo Shiyan is suppressed by civil and military officials, and she will stop for a day.At present, there are already two important ministers who bumped their foreheads against the pillar at the gate of the hall because they could not see Ji Yu, admonishing them to die.
Although it is not a serious problem to be dragged by the servant, it is not an option to continue like this.
Xie Huairou had not seen her for three days.
So, today she came to see Concubine Chen on the pretext of asking about the wonderful flowers at the Hungry Ghost Festival banquet.After getting the answer, she immediately went to the palace where she lived under the leadership of the palace guards.
……
Xie Huairou had heard long ago that Concubine Chen had hit it off with Princess Jiahe when she was still Luo Mei. She once gave her the Nine Dendrobium pearls bestowed by the late Emperor as marbles for tossing.
He also took her to play with a slingshot and killed the bird raised by the Queen Mother. She was punished as the last female picker and fell out of favor.
After Ji Yu came to the throne, she was named Chen Taifei.
Xie Huairou had never met Concubine Chen before, so she preliminarily judged that she was probably a person who was good at instigating flattery and willful willfulness.
The maid led her to the gate of the hall, bowed and said, "My lord, please wait."
She went in first to report.
"..."
Xie Huairou waited outside, looking around, the south of the main hall was a lush bamboo forest, further away there should be a side hall, here there are tile flower pots planted with various flowers and plants, no other decorations.
She glimpsed that several kinds of flowers that were obviously in different seasons bloomed together.
Quite a bit of the taste of wild peach blossoms.I heard that Concubine Chen likes to plant flowers with her own hands, but she didn't expect to be able to cultivate them so well.
In no time.
The maid came out in a hurry just now, and said anxiously, "Forgive me, my lord. Our concubine was still reading in the hall just now. She probably couldn't sit still. She went to the bamboo forest to look for flowers. I'll look for them right now."
Another round-faced maid answered, "My lord, come with me to the palace for a cup of tea, please sit down for a while."
Xie Huairou nodded in thanks and followed her in.
After waiting for a long time, the maid has not come back.
The round-faced maid was pouring tea for her, pleading guilty from time to time, Xie Huairou could only smile and say it's okay, he was the one who bothered.
Waited another moment.
Xie Huairou was sitting in the hall, before he saw anyone, he suddenly heard a pleasant smile coming from outside.
Accompanied by voices.
"It's said that cats and dogs know good people and bad people best. I've never seen A Hua be so afraid of anyone before. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it seems that your heart is not as bad as usual."
Ji Yu's voice was slightly helpless, "Sister is too much."
The round-faced maid heard the movement and hurried over, "Where did the master go just now?"
"Ah, see Your Majesty."
"Get up."
"Master, the Right Prime Minister is waiting in the palace, it has been waiting for a long time."
"Oh, look at my memory, I forgot who I made an appointment with."
Concubine Chen was holding a group of dirty fluff of various colors in her arms, and when she looked carefully, she found that it was a long-haired dog curled up.Probably called Ah Hua.
Concubine Chen is about the same age as her, although she is two or three years younger than Xie Huairou.
It's not such a shocking thing that Ji Yu called her sister in private.
Xie Huairou didn't know why he was in a daze for so long.
like a fool.
When Ji Yu saw her, he asked suspiciously, "What is the right minister doing here?"
There was a slight thorn in her heart, and she reacted and saluted with her lips raised, "I want to ask Concubine Chen about something, so I come to see you." Her expression was as respectful as always, and her lips were smiling as always.
"She wants to ask about the cultivation method of Jiuzhong Tiankui. She has a good eye, and that flower is my favorite," Concubine Chen explained a little, looking at the maid next to her and said, "It was not rumored, but today I am in a good mood. Yi'er, go get a pen and paper."
She sat down, smiled and said to Xie Huairou, "There are very few people who come to ask for advice on flowers."
Xie Huairou hurriedly said, "I'm disturbing the concubine's peace."
Ji Yu followed and sat down beside Concubine Chen, drinking the tea made by the round-faced maid, and talking to Concubine Chen.
He took one more look, and never looked at Xie Huairou who was beside him.
Soon the pen, ink, paper and inkstone will be ready.
Concubine Chen got up and wrote down the cultivation method carefully.
When Xie Huairou looked at her, he was taken aback again.
"..."
She rarely pays attention to or judges other people's appearance, and in this regard, she is really a dull person.
But Concubine Chen's beauty can be felt directly without careful tasting.
She was wearing a simple pair of cardigan dresses, without patterns and colors, and the fabric looked ordinary.The snow-white clothes made her complexion even fairer.
Under the slender and tall distant mountain eyebrows, the eyebrows and eyes under the long eyelashes are exquisite and picturesque, the Qiong nose is straight, every inch of the facial features is just right, and the starry eyes make people unable to move their eyes away.
The figure is graceful, and the appearance is like the sun and the moon in the arms.
Xie Huairou remained silent, not knowing how a person like her would fall out of favor and become unknown in the harem.
Because of Ji Yu's presence, she did not find a chance to speak to Concubine Chen.
But after that day, Ji Yu returned to court again, and withdrew that joking decree.
—
Xie Huairou was originally relieved.
She saw Ji Yu walking on the road, drenched in the rain, suddenly stepped in the mud and fell on the cold and wet green brick floor.
Curled up, the white face mixed with rain and tears.
She stared at her blankly, waiting for her to help her, and said in a crying voice, "...Sister, my leg hurts."
"..."
Xie Huairou straightened up abruptly and sat up.
She couldn't tell where she was, took a deep breath for a moment, and then she calmed down.
But it was still a dream, her words, "Sister, my leg hurts."
No matter how real the dream was, it was still just a dream. Thinking about it, a bitterness rose in his throat.
The long night is long, and the silent and dark night around her is staring at people.
Xie Huairou closed her eyes deeply, unable to tell what emotion she was in.
—
After the court was over, Xie Huairou was suddenly stopped by a female officer and said, "My lord, Your Majesty has summoned you."
Xie Huairou was taken aback.
After Xie Huairou actively avoided her.
Ji Yu pushed the boat along the way, and there was no other words between the monarch and his ministers except for the necessary exchange of political opinions.Even the female officer next to her was silent to her and never said anything more to her.
This month, Xie Huairou was called into the palace for the first time by her.
She was thinking about the recent major events, but she didn't guess why she was summoned. When she followed into the hall, her heart suddenly beat twice.
It's not a big deal, and the political affairs in the court have been discussed after the report.
Ji Yu still didn't let her go.
Standing beside her, she personally brewed a cup of new tea and brought it to her. The soup was clear and strong, and the tea was fragrant. She said with a smile, "This year's tea is much better than previous years."
Xie Huairou took it, and hurriedly thanked him with trepidation.
"The marriage will be on the third day of next month," Ji Yu raised his eyebrows, and asked suddenly, "Princess Fujia was granted the marriage by decree, sister, do you think I can go out of the palace to attend the wedding banquet?"
sister……
Xie Huairou was silent for a while and said, "That is the honor of Princess Fujia."
Ji Yu suddenly asked again, what do you think of her choosing her husband and servant.
Xie Huairou lowered his eyes and replied that he had no opinion.
"This way..." Ji Yu sat cross-legged on the dragon bed with his hair disheveled, his face crooked like a child's, his back was straight, and he could still have a bit of elegance, "What if I let it go next time?"
Xie Huairou paused for a long time, and then said in a low voice, "Your Majesty is still young, so choosing a husband to serve... There is nothing wrong with being two years late."
God knows how many unspeakable selfishness is hidden in this light and fluttering echo.
"Oh?"
Ji Yu jumped off the bed, and walked to her side with his shoes on.A finger lifted her face slightly, the corners of her lips were curled, and her eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"You think I'm young and ignorant?"
"..."
Ji Yu put down his hands, smiled briskly, avoiding his eyes so that people could not distinguish his expression, hugged Xie Huairou into his arms, and said softly, "Sister still thinks I'm seven years old."
She tapped her chin lightly on her shoulder.
Xie Huairou sighed softly in his heart, and let her hold her without any resistance, the tip of his nose faintly smelled the faint fragrance of her clothes.She has always been sensitive to aromatherapy, and rarely finds it pleasant.
The stones that had been suspended for a long time these days fell to the ground one after another following her embrace.
Xie Huairou was extremely confused and thought very clearly, it shouldn't be like this, but she also likes it.
Ji Yu's eyes flickered, and when he turned his face sideways, his soft lips naturally pressed against her neck and kissed her.
"..."
Xie Huairou's body froze again.
The earlobe was slightly red, but she still slightly parted her eyelashes and pretended nothing happened.
Seeing her reaction, Ji Yu couldn't help letting out a soft laugh from his throat, hugged her waist tightly, gnawed at her fair and lustrous collarbone with his lowered eyes, and tried to stick out the tip of his tongue to lick it.
"..."
When she raised her face, her pupils shone brightly like stars, her winking eyes were like silk.
Xie Huairou's breathing suddenly became heavier.
Her cheeks were flushed, and her body couldn't help trembling, but she still looked indifferent without saying a word.The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and those eyes that were restrained looked extraordinarily deep.
She has a straight back, and the wide-sleeved plain brocade right-faced gown sets off the sense of abstinence all over her body.
Forcibly as if nothing had happened.
Ji Yu tilted his head and smiled sullenly, pinched her chin, and at the same time touched her waist and stretched out his hand to loosen the girdle.
"His Majesty!"
She gasped, and tightly clasped her restless thin wrists.
The tone of voice finally changed.The website has been changed, the website has been changed, the website has been changed, everyone re-collects the new website, the new computer version, after everyone saves it, it will be opened on the new website, and the old website will not be opened in the future,,
Ji Yu suddenly delivered an edict to imitate Xiao Jun's time when he was in power, be diligent and caring for the people, and regard the severe drought in Jizhou as a national disaster. At this time, it is not appropriate to start construction and build a new palace.
So the primary election was postponed, and the selection of husbands and servants was reduced to once every two years, in order to ask God to show mercy and rain.

When Ji Yu said that he would postpone the selection of a husband and servant, none of the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty dared to take the lead in objecting rashly.
"..."
With a faint smile on Ji Yu's lips, he lowered his eyes, "Are you still playing?"
Shangshu Pushe couldn't help it, so he stood up first and bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty is so pure and simple and loves the people. It is really a blessing for the country, but the issue of children and heirs is related to the foundation of the country. I feel that if you don't build a building and hold a big banquet simply, You can also choose a husband first..."
Seeing him standing up, Ji Yu picked up the ancient square-headed black-bone lacquer fan to play with. The ebony side bones of the palm bamboo and the ebony fan bones felt warm to the touch.
When she waved the folding fan, she happened to interrupt Shang Shupu's words, "It's not right."
"His Majesty……"
Ji Yu interrupted him again, "A while ago, my aunt wanted me to marry Princess Fujia, but I was thinking hard that there was no suitable candidate, so why did I forget... Zishen Yushu Linfeng is really right for Fujia."
Therefore, Ji Yu bestowed a marriage on the spot, and entered an official position for his son.
With the fan open, the golden light refracted on the fan surface scattered with gold leaf, bouncing and bouncing, reflecting in her smiling eyes, full of brilliance.
Shangshu Pushe was speechless for a while, thanking Shengen.
So far, there is no son in his family who is suitable for entering the palace, so there is nothing to say.
The morning will be back.
Ji Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled, condescendingly, his gaze met Xie Huairou who was standing at the forefront of the officials.
Xie Huairou lowered his eyes, avoiding her gaze.
—
Inside the hall.
Zicuckoo opened the brocade box, carefully and quickly put the new incense sticks into the incense burner, and the rising green smoke quickly brought out a pleasant fragrance.
The purple jade on the side brings freshly brewed tea.
"Your Majesty, try this new tea."
Ji Yu pushed away the pile of memorials, half lying on the table in a daze in boredom, "Mmm."
"These booklets are boring after reading for a long time," Hongyu bent down to pick up the booklet that accidentally dropped on the ground, seeing that she was not happy, she coaxed her softly, "Your Majesty, can you go outside for a walk?

"Forget it, it's time for trouble."
Ji Yu shook his head, put his cheek on the desk, closed his eyes and took a nap.
After a while, I couldn't help but sigh again.
Zijuan and Ziyu looked at each other, both puzzled, why they were so unhappy for no reason.
"Your Majesty, would you like to eat?"
"I'm not hungry."
"Maidmaid go get a few books to relieve His Majesty's boredom?"
"I do not want to see."
"..."
"Then His Majesty can..."
Ji Yu "I want to be quiet."
The maids fell silent for a moment and looked at each other.
Shu Jing, the female officer behind Ziyu, happened to hear it, and she stepped forward with a smile and said, "Your Majesty, Jing Jing is here."
Ji Yu casually threw a memorial at her, without smiling, and only said three words, "Hurry up and work."
Shu Jing hurriedly restrained her jokes, saluted, and sat under the maid's service, sorting through piles of memorials.
The female officials next to him were busy, and Ji Yu dozed off for a while with nothing to do.
After a while, Shu Jing asked in a low voice, "Did the Right Prime Minister not come today?"
Zicuckoo was about to answer.
Ji Yu suddenly snorted coldly, "What's the matter, won't you be able to deal with the memorial without Xie Huairou?"
Listening to her tone, Shu Jing hurriedly said, "I dare not, please forgive me, Your Majesty."
"..."
After recollecting it, Ziyu said in a low voice when she was sending the ladies out of the palace, "At noon, Your Majesty asked to see His Majesty, saying that he was busy with business and had no time to go to the palace every day to report. His Majesty smiled and did not say anything, and agreed. But after she left, I started to get upset."
Shu Jing hurriedly nodded, cupped her hands and said, "Thank you for letting me know."
Ziyu turned back, still thinking about how to make Ji Yu happy.
"Your Majesty wants to read Lin Weng's collection of poems," Zijuan came over and pulled her sleeves and said, "Quickly look for it. I've been searching for a long time but I haven't found it yet."
"Lin Weng's poem?"
Lin Weng was a celebrity who resigned and returned home after being relegated to Xijing. His poems are full of talent, but absurd.Only when Ji Yu is in a good mood will he want to take it out and read it for fun.
Ziyu looked at Ji Yu suspiciously.
She was holding the memorial, sipping tea, with a happy look on her face, she got up and said, "Show me, I'm going to Chen Taifei's palace to enjoy the flowers."
"..."
—
Xie Huairou was able to avoid Ji Yu during this time, although she didn't show any signs, but she couldn't make her realize that she really didn't.After several teasings, she agreed to her resignation.

There was a box of scar removal ointment next to Xie Huairou's pillow. Every night before going to bed, she would carefully apply it on the scar on her shoulder, and she didn't know what it meant.
The wound was not shallow in the first place, and it healed too slowly, leaving a scar inevitably after the scab fell off.
It's not really noticeable at all.
"Sisters are not allowed to have scars," she said.
Knowing that she was just talking casually.
Xie Huairou lay on the bed and closed her eyes. She wanted to rest early, but the image of her going to see Ji Yu couldn't help but appear in her mind.
In fact, I thought she would refuse.
—
The next day, the sun was rising in the sky, Xie Huairou had already washed and changed clothes.
Before going to court, she would sit back at the table and continue to deal with those never-ending memorials, at least reading them all.Although she no longer has to go to the palace to report to her face every day, she still can't help rehearsing the words of the report in her mind.
For a moment, she raised her hand and rubbed the center of her eyebrows, holding back a sigh.
—
Morning today.
Ji Yu decreed that Luo Shiyan should be promoted as a guest minister in white, and that she could participate in the government affairs.The position of Baiyi Keqing is very special. He has an official salary but no official seal. It is usually used to reward young and promising children from poor families.
At this time, there was still some days before the palace examination, several Taifus looked at each other, but none of them had heard of who Na Luo Shiyan was.
Only Prime Minister Zuo stood up tremblingly and said, "Is this person's name the same as Concubine Chen?"
With a smile on the corner of Ji Yu's lips, he nodded and said, "The one I'm promoting is Chen Taifei Luo Shiyan."
"..."
All officials were in an uproar.
Regardless of civil servants or military officials, there was unanimous opposition, and even her confidant Cheng Jiezhi couldn't help but stand up and take the lead in admonishing, "Dayan has iron laws, and concubines in the harem are not allowed to interfere in the government affairs. I hope Your Majesty will think twice!"
"No way!"
"Think twice, Your Majesty..."
Ji Yu waved his hands to signal them to be silent, and with a faint smile on his face, he said slowly, "The iron law is right, wanton meddling in politics in the harem will definitely lead to disasters for the country. live or live back to her mother's house..."
"Your Majesty!" Cheng Jiezhi immediately understood what she meant, and retorted, "Even if the former emperor has passed away, even if the Concubine Chen has no children, the Concubine Chen is still the Concubine Chen. How can concubines remarry like ordinary people? And leave."
"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, Your Majesty!"
"His Majesty!"
Hundreds of officials didn't buy it for this rhetoric, and they knelt down one after another to admonish them.
Many even took off the black hats on their heads and put them on the ground to show their determination to speak out.
The opposition was too great.
Even Ji Yu couldn't do anything for a moment, she was silent for a moment, she pursed her lips and smiled and said, "Since you have no other important matters, let's retreat."
"..."
When Xie Huairou walked out, he noticed the eyes of the ministers around him.Just when she didn't need to go to the palace to report, a concubine Chen appeared inexplicably in the harem but wanted to interfere in the government affairs.
You don't have to listen to them to guess what's going on in their minds.
They must be talking about how much the matter of Concubine Chen has to do with her, and what they want.
Xie Huairou's long eyelashes drooped down, his face was so calm that no distraction could be seen.Immediately turned around.
"..."
She wanted to have an audience, but found a rare long queue outside the hall.
They were all ministers who refused to leave. They were begging to see His Majesty, and they had to make her take back that absurd edict.
All the way she walked, she was stared at brightly.
Normally when Xie Huairou went to court, she would enter first as the ministers who were surrounded by female officials and passed outside the hall. She wanted to meet His Majesty, but she was never blocked from the door, and she didn't even have to wait.
Not so today.
Ji Yu didn't see anyone, even Xie Huairou was blocked outside.
Feel the sights and whispers from all around you.
"The prime minister on the right was also kept out."
Isn't she available for audience at any time?What happened? "
"I don't know, why not..."
"Go and ask."
"..."
Xie Huairou ignored the colleagues who spoke to her secretly, just stood outside and waited together.Until the sky gradually darkened, many ministers left one after another, preparing to speak again tomorrow morning.
Xie Huairou kept waiting, the sunset glow in the sky dyed the clouds brilliantly.She knew that the female officials were handling the government affairs at this moment, and it was coming to an end.
In half a moment, at least she could see the female officer beside her.
……
Xie Huairou waited until the female officers came out, and then left, without saying a word.
Chen Mianmian couldn't help but stop, saluted and said, "My lord."
Xie Huairou raised his lips and smiled, and didn't ask directly, but just said, "The calligraphy and paintings presented by the prefect of Wu County a few days ago, can your majesty choose the one you like?"
"Oh, yes," Chen Mianmian nodded, "Your Majesty especially likes the landscape paintings drawn by Lu Xuan."
"Have you taken it out for tasting today?"
"That's right..."
Chen Mianmian was dumb for a moment. According to the law, these female officials around His Majesty are strictly forbidden to contact the courtiers and disclose the contents of the court affairs.
But Xie Huairou is too special.
They usually deal with the memorial together, so that she completely forgot to be careful.
"My lord, I think I still have important things to do, so I'll take a step ahead."
Chen Mianmian turned pale, and hurriedly said goodbye, "Please forgive me, my lord."
Xie Huairou looked at her back, her steps slowed down, wondering if she was in the palace admiring paintings this afternoon.Could it be that the matter of Concubine Chen was just a whim to make it interesting?
This is the most extraordinary imperial decree since she took the throne, and why.
—
Next, Ji Yu did not go to court early for three consecutive days.
It's as if the imperial decree of promoting Luo Shiyan is suppressed by civil and military officials, and she will stop for a day.At present, there are already two important ministers who bumped their foreheads against the pillar at the gate of the hall because they could not see Ji Yu, admonishing them to die.
Although it is not a serious problem to be dragged by the servant, it is not an option to continue like this.
Xie Huairou had not seen her for three days.
So, today she came to see Concubine Chen on the pretext of asking about the wonderful flowers at the Hungry Ghost Festival banquet.After getting the answer, she immediately went to the palace where she lived under the leadership of the palace guards.
……
Xie Huairou had heard long ago that Concubine Chen had hit it off with Princess Jiahe when she was still Luo Mei. She once gave her the Nine Dendrobium pearls bestowed by the late Emperor as marbles for tossing.
He also took her to play with a slingshot and killed the bird raised by the Queen Mother. She was punished as the last female picker and fell out of favor.
After Ji Yu came to the throne, she was named Chen Taifei.
Xie Huairou had never met Concubine Chen before, so she preliminarily judged that she was probably a person who was good at instigating flattery and willful willfulness.
The maid led her to the gate of the hall, bowed and said, "My lord, please wait."
She went in first to report.
"..."
Xie Huairou waited outside, looking around, the south of the main hall was a lush bamboo forest, further away there should be a side hall, here there are tile flower pots planted with various flowers and plants, no other decorations.
She glimpsed that several kinds of flowers that were obviously in different seasons bloomed together.
Quite a bit of the taste of wild peach blossoms.I heard that Concubine Chen likes to plant flowers with her own hands, but she didn't expect to be able to cultivate them so well.
In no time.
The maid came out in a hurry just now, and said anxiously, "Forgive me, my lord. Our concubine was still reading in the hall just now. She probably couldn't sit still. She went to the bamboo forest to look for flowers. I'll look for them right now."
Another round-faced maid answered, "My lord, come with me to the palace for a cup of tea, please sit down for a while."
Xie Huairou nodded in thanks and followed her in.
After waiting for a long time, the maid has not come back.
The round-faced maid was pouring tea for her, pleading guilty from time to time, Xie Huairou could only smile and say it's okay, he was the one who bothered.
Waited another moment.
Xie Huairou was sitting in the hall, before he saw anyone, he suddenly heard a pleasant smile coming from outside.
Accompanied by voices.
"It's said that cats and dogs know good people and bad people best. I've never seen A Hua be so afraid of anyone before. Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it seems that your heart is not as bad as usual."
Ji Yu's voice was slightly helpless, "Sister is too much."
The round-faced maid heard the movement and hurried over, "Where did the master go just now?"
"Ah, see Your Majesty."
"Get up."
"Master, the Right Prime Minister is waiting in the palace, it has been waiting for a long time."
"Oh, look at my memory, I forgot who I made an appointment with."
Concubine Chen was holding a group of dirty fluff of various colors in her arms, and when she looked carefully, she found that it was a long-haired dog curled up.Probably called Ah Hua.
Concubine Chen is about the same age as her, although she is two or three years younger than Xie Huairou.
It's not such a shocking thing that Ji Yu called her sister in private.
Xie Huairou didn't know why he was in a daze for so long.
like a fool.
When Ji Yu saw her, he asked suspiciously, "What is the right minister doing here?"
There was a slight thorn in her heart, and she reacted and saluted with her lips raised, "I want to ask Concubine Chen about something, so I come to see you." Her expression was as respectful as always, and her lips were smiling as always.
"She wants to ask about the cultivation method of Jiuzhong Tiankui. She has a good eye, and that flower is my favorite," Concubine Chen explained a little, looking at the maid next to her and said, "It was not rumored, but today I am in a good mood. Yi'er, go get a pen and paper."
She sat down, smiled and said to Xie Huairou, "There are very few people who come to ask for advice on flowers."
Xie Huairou hurriedly said, "I'm disturbing the concubine's peace."
Ji Yu followed and sat down beside Concubine Chen, drinking the tea made by the round-faced maid, and talking to Concubine Chen.
He took one more look, and never looked at Xie Huairou who was beside him.
Soon the pen, ink, paper and inkstone will be ready.
Concubine Chen got up and wrote down the cultivation method carefully.
When Xie Huairou looked at her, he was taken aback again.
"..."
She rarely pays attention to or judges other people's appearance, and in this regard, she is really a dull person.
But Concubine Chen's beauty can be felt directly without careful tasting.
She was wearing a simple pair of cardigan dresses, without patterns and colors, and the fabric looked ordinary.The snow-white clothes made her complexion even fairer.
Under the slender and tall distant mountain eyebrows, the eyebrows and eyes under the long eyelashes are exquisite and picturesque, the Qiong nose is straight, every inch of the facial features is just right, and the starry eyes make people unable to move their eyes away.
The figure is graceful, and the appearance is like the sun and the moon in the arms.
Xie Huairou remained silent, not knowing how a person like her would fall out of favor and become unknown in the harem.
Because of Ji Yu's presence, she did not find a chance to speak to Concubine Chen.
But after that day, Ji Yu returned to court again, and withdrew that joking decree.
—
Xie Huairou was originally relieved.
She saw Ji Yu walking on the road, drenched in the rain, suddenly stepped in the mud and fell on the cold and wet green brick floor.
Curled up, the white face mixed with rain and tears.
She stared at her blankly, waiting for her to help her, and said in a crying voice, "...Sister, my leg hurts."
"..."
Xie Huairou straightened up abruptly and sat up.
She couldn't tell where she was, took a deep breath for a moment, and then she calmed down.
But it was still a dream, her words, "Sister, my leg hurts."
No matter how real the dream was, it was still just a dream. Thinking about it, a bitterness rose in his throat.
The long night is long, and the silent and dark night around her is staring at people.
Xie Huairou closed her eyes deeply, unable to tell what emotion she was in.
—
After the court was over, Xie Huairou was suddenly stopped by a female officer and said, "My lord, Your Majesty has summoned you."
Xie Huairou was taken aback.
After Xie Huairou actively avoided her.
Ji Yu pushed the boat along the way, and there was no other words between the monarch and his ministers except for the necessary exchange of political opinions.Even the female officer next to her was silent to her and never said anything more to her.
This month, Xie Huairou was called into the palace for the first time by her.
She was thinking about the recent major events, but she didn't guess why she was summoned. When she followed into the hall, her heart suddenly beat twice.
It's not a big deal, and the political affairs in the court have been discussed after the report.
Ji Yu still didn't let her go.
Standing beside her, she personally brewed a cup of new tea and brought it to her. The soup was clear and strong, and the tea was fragrant. She said with a smile, "This year's tea is much better than previous years."
Xie Huairou took it, and hurriedly thanked him with trepidation.
"The marriage will be on the third day of next month," Ji Yu raised his eyebrows, and asked suddenly, "Princess Fujia was granted the marriage by decree, sister, do you think I can go out of the palace to attend the wedding banquet?"
sister……
Xie Huairou was silent for a while and said, "That is the honor of Princess Fujia."
Ji Yu suddenly asked again, what do you think of her choosing her husband and servant.
Xie Huairou lowered his eyes and replied that he had no opinion.
"This way..." Ji Yu sat cross-legged on the dragon bed with his hair disheveled, his face crooked like a child's, his back was straight, and he could still have a bit of elegance, "What if I let it go next time?"
Xie Huairou paused for a long time, and then said in a low voice, "Your Majesty is still young, so choosing a husband to serve... There is nothing wrong with being two years late."
God knows how many unspeakable selfishness is hidden in this light and fluttering echo.
"Oh?"
Ji Yu jumped off the bed, and walked to her side with his shoes on.A finger lifted her face slightly, the corners of her lips were curled, and her eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
"You think I'm young and ignorant?"
"..."
Ji Yu put down his hands, smiled briskly, avoiding his eyes so that people could not distinguish his expression, hugged Xie Huairou into his arms, and said softly, "Sister still thinks I'm seven years old."
She tapped her chin lightly on her shoulder.
Xie Huairou sighed softly in his heart, and let her hold her without any resistance, the tip of his nose faintly smelled the faint fragrance of her clothes.She has always been sensitive to aromatherapy, and rarely finds it pleasant.
The stones that had been suspended for a long time these days fell to the ground one after another following her embrace.
Xie Huairou was extremely confused and thought very clearly, it shouldn't be like this, but she also likes it.
Ji Yu's eyes flickered, and when he turned his face sideways, his soft lips naturally pressed against her neck and kissed her.
"..."
Xie Huairou's body froze again.
The earlobe was slightly red, but she still slightly parted her eyelashes and pretended nothing happened.
Seeing her reaction, Ji Yu couldn't help letting out a soft laugh from his throat, hugged her waist tightly, gnawed at her fair and lustrous collarbone with his lowered eyes, and tried to stick out the tip of his tongue to lick it.
"..."
When she raised her face, her pupils shone brightly like stars, her winking eyes were like silk.
Xie Huairou's breathing suddenly became heavier.
Her cheeks were flushed, and her body couldn't help trembling, but she still looked indifferent without saying a word.The long eyelashes trembled slightly, and those eyes that were restrained looked extraordinarily deep.
She has a straight back, and the wide-sleeved plain brocade right-faced gown sets off the sense of abstinence all over her body.
Forcibly as if nothing had happened.
Ji Yu tilted his head and smiled sullenly, pinched her chin, and at the same time touched her waist and stretched out his hand to loosen the girdle.
"His Majesty!"
She gasped, and tightly clasped her restless thin wrists.
The tone of voice finally changed.The website has been changed, the website has been changed, the website has been changed, everyone re-collects the new website, the new computer version, after everyone saves it, it will be opened on the new website, and the old website will not be opened in the future,,
