C299 (1/2)
Mu Rousang did not seal him because he saved him again, and he did not mention this matter, the two of them had this sort of tacit understanding, there were some things that were not needed to be mentioned!
”If Zixuan wants to bully you, just come find me!”
”I know, if you want to eat my food, just send someone to tell Zixuan that I'll make someone to bring it in …”
She hesitated again, then smiled apologetically. ”I forgot again.”
”If you remember, you wouldn't have abandoned this last position. I don't blame you, the palace isn't like any other place!”
When Su Ruirui was ten years old, he was sealed by the Xiangyang, and when he was fifteen, he officially went to the vassal lords. He had been used to palace's affairs since he was young, and that was why he treasured them so much when he met Mu Rousang!
”En!”
The two of them sat facing each other in silence. After a while, he lazily said, ”I am sleepy! You don't have to see me again when you leave tomorrow. ”
He did not want to face separation, and from then on, he was at a great distance!
The next day, the purple-red light rose from the east side of the palace, and the heavy red lacquer gate of the palace was forcefully pushed open.
Squatting at the corner, Yang Zixuan, who was accompanied by Commander Zhao, looked haggard. When he heard the door open, he immediately jumped and ran over.
A figure that he had missed for a long time was reflected in his eyes. He was so excited that no matter how much he said in his heart, he just turned into ”My wife!”
”Husband!”
Mu Rousang quickly walked in front of him, looked at the skinny man in front of him, and laughed: ”My husband's good body that took so much effort to raise has fallen again.”
”My wife!” Yang Zixuan's heart was filled with grief, and his naughty words instantly swatted him away!
”Come on, let's go home. Grandmother heard that you entered the palace, but she was very worried and kept scolding people at home.”
It was self-evident who he was scolding. Not long after, Idle Consort's son was infected with smallpox too, but he was not as lucky as Su Ruirui, and Mu Rousang did not go to treat him either. His already weak body could not withstand such a serious illness, and he did not endure it.
The noble women of the Great Zhou Dynasty felt as if they were on stimulants. Because Her Majesty had ordered the selection of suitable concubines for the emperor.
It was just that the position of Empress could never be mentioned. He did not know how Su Ruirui and Empress Dowager Dun Shu had negotiated with each other, but the position of empress was suspended at this moment.
Of course, this was something that would come later!
Following the decree for the selection of women, the people continued to go through the process like a raging fire, but the scene in the Imperial Palace was a completely different story.
Ever since Mu Rousang went into the palace to look after him, Yang Zixuan was very worried, but he did not know how he came to a conclusion, or how he came to a secret discussion with Mu Jinzhi. In short, the Princess Huaiqing entered the palace again.
Of course, Princess Huaiqing often went to the palace to accompany the empress dowager. Since Su Ruirui had smallpox, he lived in the palace to the point where he could gossip and talk about things that people hid carefully.
When the Princess Jing'an followed her back to her parents' house to roll and act coquettishly, she whispered in her ear again. Princess Huaiqing's complexion changed again, but in the end, she was pushed into the palace by the Princess Jing'an.
”Empress Dowager, you look well today?”
When the previous emperor was still alive, the Princess Huaiqing was very arrogant and proud. Now that the previous emperor wasn't around, they could only befriend the empress dowager.
”Stop talking nonsense with This Dowager. I knew you had something you wanted to ask of me. Just tell me quickly. When you're done, accompany This Dowager to see that White Jade Peacock that the barbarian has paid tribute to!”
The Empress Dowager glanced at his, then motioned to the palace maid to bring her the new snacks from the imperial kitchen.
”Eh, the empress dowager also likes pastries stuffed with fresh flowers?”
”You've eaten?”
The Empress Dowager looked at her in confusion.
”Ai, isn't this the same as Jing'an marrying a poor kid? Her sister-in-law would do this. ” Princess Huaiqing laughed.
”You're talking about the top scholar today. Judging from the emperor's words, he seems to be very important to him. Is he a talented young lady named Jing'an?” Wasn't she the sister of the top scholar? After His Majesty recovered from his illness, This Dowager even mentioned to him that he had to properly reward that little daughter-in-law. Why was it that she still hadn't been rewarded even now? ”What a load of nonsense.”
After all, she had saved her son's life twice before, so it wouldn't be too much even if she treated her as a benefactor. Only, she was stopped by Su Ruirui, who only knew that the wood elves would be destroyed by the wind, whether it was Yang Zixuan or Mu Rousang, they weren't suitable to be roasted on fire.
”The Emperor probably has too many concerns!”
