Chapter 100.2

Lin Yu sighed and whispered: “In a few days, it will be Concubine Rong’s birthday. Not only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but even the emperor will come here in person.”

Wen Chi was stunned.

But when he thought about Shi Ye coming to this villa, he became a little restless – in his current situation, he didn’t know if Shi Ye would suddenly urge him to leave the East Palace on a whim.

Although Lin Yu didn’t know what Wen Chi was thinking, he could tell from his changing expression that he would not get the answer he wanted.

Lin Yu was speechless for a moment.

He was fully prepared for this rare trip, as long as His Highness the Crown Prince could look at him, as long as His Highness the Crown Prince could stay at his place for one night, then he would definitely be able to conceive the dragon seed ……

Yes, the dragon seed1(a figure of speech used for the descendants of an emperor).

Now that the situation in the court has changed drastically, everyone knows that the emperor is lingering in a sick bed and he may die soon and that the day of the crown prince’s accession to the throne will be brought forward.

At that time, not only the civil and military officials in the court, but also the fate of them will undergo tremendous changes.

As long as he can conceive His Royal Highness’s child as soon as possible, as long as he can give birth to His Royal Highness’s eldest son as soon as possible, even if he fails to climb to the highest position in the end, he can live a life without worrying about food and clothing.

Lin Yu thought he could find out something from Wen Chi, but he was disappointed.

Lin Yu gritted his teeth, and suddenly hated iron but not steel2(恨铁不成针 is a Chinese idiom, pinyin: hèn tiě bù chéng gāng, to describe feeling dissatisfied with the expected person who does not live up to expectations).

This Wen Chi is too disappointing!

If he had been treated like Wen Chi back then, he and His Highness’s children would have been running all over the place by now, why do they need to rack their brains now to calculate these things?

Moreover, Wen Chi really doesn’t care about His Royal Highness and he doesn’t even know His Royal Highness’s whereabouts!

Until Lin Yu ran away in anger, Wen Chi still looked confused.

After coming back to his senses, Wen Chi turned his head to look at Ruo Fang and Ruo Tao: “What’s wrong with him?”

Ruo Fang guessed suspiciously: “Perhaps Young Master Lin has something urgent to do.”

Wen Chi thought for a while, and felt that Ruo Fang’s guess made sense, so he nodded and quickly forgave Lin Yu for his rude behavior.

The courtyard where Wen Chi lived was relatively remote but it is quiet. Behind his house is a snow-white bamboo forest, as beautiful as if he were in a painting.

Unfortunately, the silence lasted only one night.

In the early morning of the next day, Wen Chi woke up and had just finished his breakfast when he heard a quarrel outside.

Ruo Fang went out to watch the excitement and curled her lips when she came back: “It’s that Lin Yu and Yue Gui again, they really get itchy when they don’t argue all day.”

Ruo Tao chuckled: “Leave them alone, when the young master was far away in Jinzhou, they would quarrel all day long, coming and going, like two fighting roosters.”

Ruo Fang laughed and said, “I see, they are like dogs biting dogs.”

At Chen shi3(the period of the day from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m), when the little eunuch next to Concubine Rong came to invite them, Lin Yu and Yue Gui finished arguing.

When Wen Chi walked out of the room, he saw Yue Gui’s eyes were red, wiping his tears pitifully and Lin Yu next to him showed a victorious smile.

Wen Chi hurriedly pretended not to see Lin Yu, lowered his head and walked towards the little eunuch.

Although they came with great grandeur, in fact, when counted carefully, there were only about thirty people invited by Concubine Rong to the villa. But each of them had brought along a servant girl to serve them, filling almost the entire garden.

Concubine Rong prepared tea and snacks, as well as a number of singers and dancers to perform. It looked like a tea party, but in fact, every word was an explicit and implicit reminder for everyone to behave themselves during this special time and not to have any ulterior motives.

Everyone can hear it naturally.

After all, coming out to watch the snow blowing in the mountains on this cold winter morning, the warning is already quite obvious.

Concubine Rong also knew how to give a slap, then offer a sweet date4(deal harshly with sb, then offer sth by way of consolation). After slapping everyone, she politely asked everyone to disperse. At the same time, she did not forget to order the little eunuchs to give everyone the small gifts they had prepared.

Concubine Rong’s birthday will be five days later and the birthday banquet will be held in the evening of that day, so during the five free days, everyone can move freely in the villa.

Wen Chi returned to the house, opened the gift box given to him by the little eunuch and found a white porcelain bottle wrapped in beautiful red satin in the box, which contained a viscous transparent liquid.

Wen Chi poured some of the clear liquid into his hand and a light fragrance immediately filled the air.

Wen Chi lowered his head and sniffed the palm of his hand, feeling that it was a bit like modern essential oil.

At this time, Ruo Fang also came over: “It smells so good!”

Ruo Tao followed Ruo Fang, glanced at the essential oil-like liquid in Wen Chi’s palm, and explained: “Concubine Rong’s maternal family is very talented in making these fragrances and most of the fragrances in the palace are from her maternal family.”

Ruo Fang tilted her head: “Then what’s the use of this?”

Ruo Tao said: “I heard that it is used when taking a bath, you just need to add two drops of this fragrance oil.”

Hearing Ruo Tao’s words, Wen Chi realized that there was actually a hot spring in this mountain villa, and his heart immediately got excited.
