[011] Meet the King of Yan

Chu Yuan was a little confused. Originally, she thought that she could see the emperor when she came into the Yongshou Palace, but she didn't expect that the emperor seemed to care very little about the Yongshou Palace. She had nothing else she could do except tell a story to the Empress Dowager all day.

In this regard, the Empress Dowager's sleepless disease is much better. It is precisely because of this that the Empress Dowager also loves Chu Yuan, so that Chu Yuan's status in the Yongshou Palace is getting higher and higher.

Chu Yuan knew that the tree was attracting wind. She was extremely friendly and never put on airs because of the Empress Dowager's favor, but even so, she still found the hatred of some people.

Xiuhe is naturally one of the most obvious. Before Chu Yuan, Xiu He was the most favored girl in the Yongshou Palace, but after Chu Yuan came, the Empress Dowager began to trust Chu Yuan more. Xiu He saw it and unconsciously brought a targeted meaning.

After the Empress Dowager's sleepless disease recovered, she was even more obsessed with Chu Yuan's "Stone Records". Such a Baodai love has become a struggle history of a bitter and lonely girl here in the Empress Dowager. The injustice encountered by Daiyu in Rongguo Mansion was magnified by Chu Yuan, and often let the Empress Dowager speak for her.

At the same time, Chu Yuan only talks about one chapter every day on the grounds that the Empress Dowager is physically tired, which often makes the Empress Dowager remember, so no one can replace Chu Yuan in the Yongshou Palace.

The change was just when Chu Yuan was about to be discouraged. That day, Chu Yuan was going to write down the "Stone Record" she said. She was asking the pendant to prepare the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and a little girl named A Zhu ran over in a hurry.

"Sister Chu Yuan, please go and have a look. The emperor and the empress dowager have quarreled. Sister Xiuhe dares not speak. Mister Lu asked me to invite you over!"

Chu Yuan was shocked, both happy and sad. For so few days, she has not had a chance to see the emperor. Now it is a great opportunity. She must seize it. Thinking of this, she has ordered her to collect things and follow A Zhu to the Empress Dowager's bedroom.

Walking halfway, Chu Yuan asked slightly worriedly, "It's not that the emperor hasn't come here for a few days. What's the matter today?"

A Zhu shook his head and said, "I don't know much about it, but the emperor suddenly came over in the afternoon, and his face was not very good. I don't know what the Empress Dowager said in the inner hall. When Mother Lu entered, the two had already confronted each other."

Chu Yuan was very puzzled in her heart. It was clear that there were two mother and son, and the empress dowager was still thinking about the emperor everywhere. Why did she make such a scene like this?

When he arrived at the Empress Dowager's bedroom, the atmosphere was really very solemn. Chu Yuan stood outside the door for a moment, and then whispered a few words in A Zhu's ear. A Zhu turned around and left for a moment. When he came back, he held a basin of Tianzhulan in his hand.

Chu Yuan looked at the snow-white flowers blooming just right and walked in with a smile.

"Empress Dowager, I've found this flower for you!"

Chu Yuan said as if nothing had happened, as if she suddenly found that there was another person in the hall. She was slightly shocked, but did not salute in time.

The Empress Dowager knew that she saw the emperor for the first time and did not blame her. The Empress Dowager's face was extremely bad. She waved her hand, "This is the emperor."

Chu Yuan was shocked and hurriedly knelt down and saluted, "Chu Yuan pays homage to the emperor."

Her shoulders shrank, as if she was really afraid. However, her eyes looked at the emperor thoroughly as early as just now. The emperor of the Yan was long, and his two thick eyebrows made the whole person not angry and arrogant. In addition, his face was not good at smiling, which was instantly daunting.

"Get up."

The emperor didn't seem to be patient. He had never met Chu Yuan before. Naturally, he didn't know him at this time. He frowned and remembered some news he had heard before and asked, "Are you the girl who heals the empress dowager?"

Chu Yuan took a step back slightly and looked humble, "It's the maidservant."

The emperor understood this question. He nodded and knew it, and then slightly rolled his sleeves, as if he was ready to leave.

Chu Yuan's heart moved, and she stepped forward and approached the empress dowager. "It's really a coincidence that the emperor came today. A few days ago, the empress dowager heard that you were restless these days, so she asked the maidservant to cultivate Tianzhu orchid, which can calm down. This orchid is very strange. It was necessary to live in frost and cold weather. It was the empress dowager who personally chose it in the ice cellar. The good Hanbing has been guarding this flower for a long time. I wanted to give this flower to the emperor, but now you are also connected with the empress dowager's mother and son.

Chu Yuan said this lightly, which had neither the intention of inviting credit or showing off. This made the emperor's body, who was originally going to get up and leave, paused. He frowned, "Since the mother is not in good health, why did she go to the ice cellar? How did you servants do?"

Mother Lu stood aside and knelt down as soon as she heard the words, "The old slave is not good at taking care of the Empress Dowager. Please forgive me."

When the Empress Dowager saw this, a trace of heartache also flashed in her eyes. She looked at Mother Lu, who was kneeling on the ground and shook her head. "No wonder, the mourning family is going by herself. How can they stop it?"

The dark color in the emperor's eyes was one more scattered. His eyes fell on the basin of orchids, and the snow-white petals were hidden between the pale green stems and leaves, which was refreshing and pleasant.

"This flower blooms well."

When the emperor said this, his meaning was naturally obvious. The Empress Dowager nodded to Mother Lu, who hurriedly stood up.

Seeing this, Chu Yuan put the flower on the window sill. The faint sunlight fell on the petals, and the white flowers turned into a faint blue. Nangong Che had never heard of before, and immediately his eyebrows were condensed, "This flower--"

Chu Yuan nodded and smiled, "This flower cultivation method is different from other places because it changes color. If it can meet the emperor's wishes, it is naturally the best."

Nan Gong Che nodded, "It's also a rare treasure. I've received it."

As soon as the voice fell, a husband standing next to him greeted him. The husband seemed to be a close servant of great status around the emperor. At this time, the eyes of Chu Yuan's hand also flashed with surprise.

His eyes passed over Chu Yuan with strange eyes, which made Chu Yuan subconsciously lower her head in her heart.

Originally, the condensed atmosphere was so relaxed. Even if most of it was better, the Empress Dowager smiled faintly. Seeing that the emperor did not mean to leave immediately, she ordered the kitchen to prepare lunch dessert. Nangong Che did not refuse this time and stayed safely.

At this time, there were only a few people left in the hall. Chu Yuan only felt that Nangong Che's eyes occasionally fell on her body, with inquiry. Somehow, she only felt uncomfortable. Fortunately, she reported that the Empress Dowager followed the kitchen to help.

Under her guidance, some cakes that were only available in modern times were made by ancient chefs. When those unique snacks were sent to the emperor, even the empress dowager was bright.

Chu Yuan stood at the door of the hall. Although the mother and son did not have much communication during this meal, the palace people in the hall had very eye-catching joy on their faces.

Nangong Che finished eating quietly and told everyone in the hall that he was going to leave after taking good care of the Empress Dowager. When he went out, he passed Chu Yuan.

Nangong Che's body was extremely tall, and her dark robe was very imposing. At the moment she passed in front of her, Chu Yuan only felt a sense of oppression. She retreated slightly and bowed her head to salute.

Feeling that her footsteps were getting farther and farther away. Just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, Nangong Li retreated back, and his eyes were slightly bright, "What's your name?"

Chu Yuan was stunned and bowed his head, "I'm a maidservant, Chu Yuan."

Nangong Li nodded, "Chu Yuan, Chu Yuan."

He seemed to be chewing her name, and his thoughts were very clear word by word. This look fell into the eyes of the whole Yongshou Palace. Although Chu Yuan only felt uncomfortable, it was another meaning in the eyes of others.

The Empress Dowager's eyes also fell on her. Her eyes were stunned with a warm smile. She looked at herself and said, "What is the Empress Dowager looking at? Is there a foreign body on A Yuan?"

The Empress Dowager shook her head with a smile. While commanding the servants to pack up, the other side smiled and said, "The emperor hasn't had a meal in Yongshou Palace for a long time, so the Empress Dowager is happy. This is all your credit!"

Chu Yuan was stunned, and then she understood where everyone's joy came from.

After the meal, the Empress Dowager rinsed her mouth and was ready to get up. Xiuhe immediately stepped forward and was ready to help him up, but she didn't expect that the Empress Dowager shook her hand at Xiuhe, but waved to Chu Yuan.

Even if Xiu He's face changed, Chu Yuan nodded slightly to Xiu He and held the Empress Dowager's hand out of the door of the hall.

And inside the door, Xiuhe looked at Chu Yuan's slender body and clenched her hands.

"Empress Dowager, where are you going?"

The Empress Dowager's eyes were deep, "I haven't gone out for a long time. I don't know what the Royal Garden has become. You can go and have a look with the Ai family."

Chu Yuan only felt that the Empress Dowager seemed to be full of worries at this moment. She even had a hunch that this trip could let her know a lot of things she didn't know before. She nodded softly, "Yes."

Now it is more than three months. Although the State of Yan is not as cold as the Great Qin Dynasty, it is also cold and windy at this time. The empress dowager wears a dark purple cloak and uses Chu Yuan's hand to go from Yongshou Palace to the imperial garden.

The Empress Dowager almost sighed all the way. Chu Yuan didn't know why she sighed, so she had to follow silently and walked for a long time. Maybe the Empress Dowager was tired, and the group stopped at a pavilion called Wangyue Pavilion.

Chu Yuan helped the empress dowager sit down. She sighed gently and looked at Chu Yuan, "Woman, you have been with me for so long. How do you feel when you look at this harem?"

Chu Yuan's heart moved. She raised her eyes and looked around. After the lush vegetation, there were seemingly endless pavilions. However, most of these palaces had a dull smell, as if no one had lived there for hundreds of years. Her eyes were deep, and she didn't know if this should be said.

However, the Empress Dowager has seen what she thought. She smiled low, "This huge harem was originally prepared for the emperor's four concubines, but now it is empty. Don't you think it's desolate?"

Chu Yuan looked at it and really felt that a coldness surged into her heart. She remembered what Nangong Li had said to her that Nangong Che abandoned the whole harem for the queen Fenglan dance.

Sure enough, the Empress Dowager said it.

"This palace used to be extremely lively. After the emperor's accession to the throne, he has been diligent and loved the people. He is an extremely wise emperor. The mourning family helped him choose the lady of Yanjing to live in the harem. Although he did not go to the harem every day, he did not neglect anyone."

Chu Yuan looked at this woman who is 40 years old, but she seems to have gone through many vicissitudes. The deep palace is really old. Even if her face is not old, her heart will be old.

"However, the emperor abandoned the harem overnight. The mourning family did not want to force him. However, the emperor has been twenty-eight this year, but he doesn't even have his own children. The mourning family is just worried that I, Dayan, will have no future!"

The Empress Dowager's sigh fell on Chu Yuan's heart lake like a drop of water. She frowned and waited for the Empress Dowager to say the part she wanted to know most.

However, the Empress Dowager did not have any intention to mention the queen from Xiliang.

Chu Yuan pondered slightly, "It is naturally good for the emperor to be diligent and love the people, but the bloodline of the royal family is also extremely important. Why did the emperor abolish the harem? If you don't like the current concubine, why don't you choose from the new draft?

Chu Yuan tried to smell it as euphemistically. She only saw the Empress Dowager smile and shook her head, "Do you believe in fate? Sometimes it's really fate to play tricks on people. The emperor doesn't love the harem three thousand, but he is fascinated by a careful man!"

As soon as this word came out, there was anger in the voice of the Empress Dowager. Chu Yuan was shocked and wrote it carefully!?

Is it the sister she is looking for in the Empress Dowager?

"Chu Yuan dares not judge the emperor's matter, but the Empress Dowager, as the emperor's biological mother, you must be for the emperor's good. The emperor should understand this point."

The Empress Dowager has been confused in the opposition of Nangong Che for many days. Now she hears the young Chu Yuan talking for her voice, and immediately has a layer of closeness in her heart.

"The mourning family knows that you are a general person. The mourning family does not not allow the emperor to spoil anyone, but it should not abolish the rules handed down by the ancestors because of this matter. This huge harem is now vacant, and if the emperor has no children, won't this big Yan Jiangshan fall into his hands? If so, mourning What kind of face do you have to see the emperor after a hundred years?

Chu Yuan's heart moved, "Did the Empress Dowager try to find some women he will like for the emperor?"

A sad look appeared at the back of Tai, "You see, he hasn't come to the Yongshou Palace for half a month now. That's why I have arranged many methods for the sake of the incense of his ancestors, but I didn't make him change his mind. I really feel that I have enough strength."

Chu Yuan smiled helplessly, "Who on earth can make the emperor so infatuated?"

The Empress Dowager stagnated and shook her head, "It doesn't matter if you don't say it."

Chu Yuan knew that the empress dowager was extremely shy about this topic, and immediately her heart was tight. If it was so long, wouldn't it be extremely difficult for her to know anything about the queen?

She smiled and said, "Empress Dowager, since the emperor is only infatuated with one person, we might as well find someone who imagines with that woman. Maybe the emperor will fall in love with another person you are satisfied with, which is not certain."

The corners of the Empress Dowager's mouth hooked, "I haven't thought about this method, but it's really difficult to find someone similar to that person."

Chu Yuan was slightly entangled. "In this case, the empress dowager is most concerned about the problem of the imperial vein. Since the emperor has a woman she likes, no matter what the identity of the woman is, the empress dowager might as well accept that person first. After all, the heir of Dayan is more important."

Chu Yuan almost despised herself. It was really awkward to say these words to her.

The Empress Dowager got up and sighed, "I haven't thought about it, but it's impossible!"

Looking at the figure of the empress dowager who was ready to return, Chu Yuan wondered what this is impossible, whether it is impossible to have a child, or will the empress dowager not accept her at all?

With such doubts, Chu Yuan returned to such unsurprising days again. With the progress of Bao Dai's love, the Empress Dowager became more and more obsessed with this story related to the Red Mansion. Chu Yuan adjusted the plot and rhythm while waiting for the emperor's arrival again, because she knew that only the emperor could make this forever The tranquility of the Shou Palace rises, and only in this way can she know what she wants to know.
