Chapter 132 Half Moon
It is both a blessing and a curse for Yao Yulu to be favored by the emperor. These days, Yao Yulu has been spoiled to the sky by the emperor, and others can't help but be jealous when they see it. Yao Yulu is also worried about this matter. If it goes on like this, it will become the target of public criticism sooner or later. It is not a perfect good thing.
But she favored the time with Li Qingxiao, for fear that this time would slip away from her fingers like a white horse and never return.
Yao Yulu thought about it and finally decided to express her concerns: "Your Majesty, you often come to Yulu. I'm afraid it will attract the dissatisfaction of others, or you should worry more about the sisters in the palace."
After hearing this, Li Qingxiao frowned slightly and said with a little displeasure, "I'm busy with official business all day long. Is it difficult for me to decide such a thing?"
Yao Yulu was not afraid. She knew that Li Qingxiao's words were not to blame her. She continued to persuade her softly: "Yulu knows the hard work of the emperor, but only by stabilizing the harem can the emperor be at ease with the affairs of the previous dynasty. More or less, she still has to worry about some sisters."
Yao Yulu is not painless to push her husband to others in this way, but in this way, she can save herself and share her worries for the emperor. Such a dilemma is really difficult to make a choice.
"Well, I understand your painstaking efforts, that is, I wrote it down. Well, let's not talk about these things. I've been thinking about you for a day..."
The two were lingering, and the curtains on both sides of the bed slowly covered, and the occasional breeze could see a little spring light in the curtain leaking all over the West Hall.
Li Qingxiao also listened a little under Yao Yulu's advice. He went to Yao Yulu's place less, but he still stayed in the West Hall most of the time.
In the afternoon, Yao Yujiao's body was much better and could go out to walk around. The imperial doctor said that she would go out more to bask in the sun. Yao Yujiao stayed boringly in Yuxia Palace and came to the West Hall in a sedan chair. This was the first time after Yao Yulu moved to Yuemei Palace. Yao Yujiao came to the West Hall to find her in person.
Yao Yulu saw Yao Yujiao's sedan chair appear in front of the temple gate. Unexpectedly, Yao Yujiao never took the initiative to find her and quickly rushed out to greet her.
"Sister, why did you come here in person? Are you better?" Yao Yulu helped Yao Yujiao get off the sedan chair and asked.
"The imperial doctor said that it's almost all right. If you walk around outside more, it will be almost done." Yao Yujiao smiled and followed Yao Yulu into the hall.
"That's good. I went to see my sister a few days ago, and I saw that my sister was not so energetic. Today, my face is much better." Yao Yulu said with a smile.
"Well, it's been a lot of great these days. Sister, you have been in this palace recently. The emperor has been with you for more than half of this month. Yao Yujiao said.
"It's just the emperor's pity for Yulu, but if it goes on like this, I'm afraid it's not a good thing." Yao Yulu was a little worried, said.
"The soldiers came to block the water and cover the earth, so we have to do this." Yao Yujiao gently stroked her hair and said.
After these days of illness, Yao Yujiao's personality has been restrained a lot. She is no longer arrogant and domineering in the past, and she does not seize the day to recover from her illness. She seems to be gentle and virtuous.
"Sister said that."
Yao Yulu presented Yao Yujiao with a cup of tea. The two sat in the front hall and chatted for a few words, but saw that the sun outside the window was very bright and warmly sprinkled the garden.
"How about my sister go out for a walk with me?" Yao Yujiao was a little infatuated with the warm sun outside and invited Yao Yulu to stroll together.
"Of course." Yao Yulu took Yao Yujiao's arm, and the two sisters went out of the front hall.
Yao Yujiao looked at the West Hall, which was completely different from the defeat that had been passed down in the population of the palace. Although it had been repaired for a long time and was a little cramped, the flowers and plants in the garden were trimmed regularly. Several pots of magnolias in the middle were a little white in the green, which was very good, and the melodious fragrance hit her nose. Walking in the garden was also relaxed and happy. .
The two walked out of the West Hall and entered the main garden. As soon as they entered the main garden, they heard the chirping sound of birds, which was different from ordinary magpie.
I just saw a woman playing with the parrot in the bird cage in the distance. Looking carefully, it was Yang Xuanshi.
Yang Xuanshi passed around and saw that Yao Yulu and Yao Yujiao were slowly coming. She did not dare to be rude in front of Yao Yujiao. What's more, Yao Yulu was a nobleman at this moment, and she did not dare to forget the rules. She came forward and said, "I have seen the Jade Concubine, Yao Guiren."
As soon as she approached Yang Xuanshi, Yao Yulu smelled a fragrant and secluded smell. She couldn't tell what the spice was used for. It was not like the fragrance of flowers, because it was much stronger than the fragrance of flowers.
Yang Xuanshi likes to use some spices all day long, and he usually can't smell them when he passes by, but today, I don't know if he picked the wrong spices or something, but he chose such a strong taste on his body.
"Well, you are Yang Xuanshi, right?" Yao Yujiao looked at the person in front of her and said.
Yang Xuanshi nodded and said, "It's my concubine."
"This parrot is cute. Come on, show me." Yao Yujiao looked at the little parrot and said with a little fun.
Yang Xuanshi handed over the parrot. Yao Yujiao was playing, but she gently held her forehead with an idle hand and coughed a few times.
"Sister, what's wrong?" Yao Yulu quickly asked that Yao Yujiao's cough and panting had recovered, and it seemed that she was also stimulated by the fragrance.
"It's okay. Let's go back." Yao Yujiao returned the parrot to Yang Xuanshi and went far away with Yao Yulu without looking back.
"I don't know what the spices used by Yang Xuanshi are. I feel a little dizzy when I smell them." Yao Yujiao complained.
"Sister also smelled it? She has always been weird, so she doesn't have to pay attention to it. Yao Yulu didn't think much about it.
Yao Yujiao spent dinner here before returning to Yuxia Palace. On this day, Li Qingxiao did not come. I heard that she turned over Song Jinzhi's brand.
Xinghui Palace has not been repaired. It had been repaired before, but Li Qingxiao went to have a look and felt very dissatisfied. He asked the people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to redecorate it, saying that they must wait until it is perfect before letting Yao Yuxiu live in.
Yao Yulu has been living in Yuemei Palace, but she is happy in her heart. This is closer to Xu Cairen. Now that Xu Cairen is pregnant, it is convenient to do anything, but she is not in a hurry to move there.
Seeing that it was nearly September, Yao Yulu was sitting in the garden of the West Hall and resting after dinner. Just then, her father-in-law sent a message saying that the emperor had turned over her sign today, so that she did not have to go to the Qiankun Hall and waited for the emperor in the West Hall.
It was a little cold in the evening at the end of August. Lv Fanxiao quickly took out a thin cloak and put it on Yao Yulu's shoulder and said, "Lord, it's windy. Let's go in and wait."
Yao Yulu shook her head and said, "It's good to wear a cloak. It's not cold."
Lv Panxiao saw Yao Yulu's persistence and accompanied him, but he didn't expect that something had gone wrong tonight.
Yao Yulu has been looking at the door of the palace, but after nearly an hour, Li Qingxiao has not been seen. Li Qingxiao usually came very early, but he didn't see Li Qingxiao until this time today. Yao Yulu couldn't help but have doubts and said to Xiao Xuanzi beside him, "Go out and explore. How can the emperor still have a future?"
"Go quickly, little master, let's go in. It's cold this night. Sit here and be careful not to catch a cold." Lv Fanxiao was afraid that Yao Yulu would get sick by the night wind and persuaded him.
Yao Yulu said with some stubbornness on her face and said, "I'll wait here."
Lv Fanxiao shook her head helplessly and motioned Xiao Xuanzi to ask. She also felt a little strange. The emperor didn't arrive early when he came to the West Hall, or if he was busy with something, he would ask someone to tell him, but today...
Yao Yulu sat in the garden and stared at the door, a little worried and anxious. Li Qingxiao's absence at this time really made her unable to think of a reason. The night wind made her tremble a little, and her hair wrapped around her face, but she still stubbornly bit her lips and sighed.
After a while, Xiao Xuanzi ran all the way, with a trace of unhappiness on his face, which seemed to bring bad news.
Yao Yulu quickly stood up and asked, "Where has the emperor gone?"
Xiao Xuanzi looked up at Yao Yulu and said cautiously, "Your Majesty... The emperor went to Yang Xuanshi's place.
When Yao Yulu heard this, her face turned pale and opened her mouth slightly and asked, "Yang Xuanshi? Why did you go to Yang Xuanshi's place?
This was never expected by Yao Yulu. Yang Xuanshi has never been noticed by the emperor. How could she turn over her brand today and go to Yang Xuanshi again? It sounds unbelievable.
"The new maid of honor in the palace just now saw that the emperor happened to meet Yang Xuanshi in the main garden, and somehow went to the South Hall with Yang Xuanshi..." Xiao Xuanzi muttered, and looked up and carefully observed Yao Yulu's expression, for fear that the master would be furious as soon as he said it.
Yao Yulu's eyes were stunned and slowly collapsed on the chair. The evening wind was a little cold. At this moment, it made her tremble, and with her heart also cool down. After all, she didn't understand the originality of this. The emperor just did it on a whim, but it turned over her Yao Yulu's brand. But let her stay alone late at night. Where should Yao Yulu's face be?
Lv Fanxiao looked at Yao Yulu's appearance, and her trembling shoulders couldn't help but make people feel distressed. She stepped forward to persuade him, "Little Lord, there may be some reason. It's getting late. The wind outside this house is getting colder and colder. Let's go into the hall."
Yao Yulu sneered at the corners of her mouth and said, "Why? It's just a new love and old love, so let me blow the evening wind. At this moment, I'm afraid that only this coolness can make me wake up.
The moonlight was like jade, gently sprinkled on the ground. Yao Yulu could only be heard sighing deeply in the quiet garden, and there was no other movement.
