C324 Xuanye rescheduled scouting the northern frontier (1/2)
Rong'er thought to himself: During this half a year, the Emperor's pampered love for Wang Jiami made people think that there was no one else in the Emperor's heart. Yeah, but once the Emperor began to pamper a single concubine, it would be difficult for the palace to be at peace.
The weather gradually turned hot, and the summer gauze and tent had long since been hung up in the palace.
”Elder Sister Rong, where is the emperor taking the summer break this year?” Today, Xiushan sat down at Rong'er's palace and began to talk about the emperor's summer vacation.
”The Emperor never told me.” Rong'er replied with a smile.
”Actually, I saw that the emperor has missed Princess Rong Xian quite a bit over the past year, so there's a high chance that he would go to the Imperial City.” Xiushan smiled.
”Is that so?” Rong'er laughed lightly, but he felt bitter in his heart. Did the Emperor really miss Rong Xian? In this past half a year, the emperor only doted on Wang Jiami, so she thought he had already forgotten about his daughter.
”I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for you to travel with the emperor. His Majesty will definitely leave the palace during the summer, so if the emperor can give up on the Northern Patrol Officer, then it means that the king's heart is only worth so much. If the emperor can bring the king to the Spring Garden for a summer vacation, then there will be worry for the people of the imperial harem.”
Hearing Xiushan's words made Rong'er feel a bit uncomfortable. He felt like she was talking to her, so he replied plainly, ”I always thought that little sister Xiushan was very fond of the king's promise. I don't care whether the emperor favors you or not.”
”Elder Sister Rong …” ”I really don't care. I'm different from you guys, there's a coincidence that I entered the palace, and more importantly, it's to accompany my sister Empress Xioayi, so the Emperor's kindness towards me has never been great. What do I have to worry about?”
Yes, although Xiushan was a noble concubine in the palace, she was never officially conferred the title of 'consort' or favored by the Emperor. She was destined to stay in the palace for the rest of her life, and in the end, she was still a poor person. ”Xiushan, I'm sorry. I shouldn't say that.” Rong'er whispered with pity in his eyes.
”Elder Sister Rong, it's nothing. Xiushan is different from the other imperial concubines and doesn't look forward to being pampered. I just want to stay at the palace in place of my elder sister and take care of the emperor and the empress dowager. I'll be satisfied.” Xiu Shan smiled.
Rong'er lightly nodded his head. Had the emperor's special favor of agreeing to the king already caused the imperial harem to become restless? Even she herself had become restless? That's right, the beauty that the King promised to possess was something that no one in the imperial harem could compare to …
”Mistress!” The princess has sent a letter! ” Before Xiao Qing even arrived, his excited voice had already reached their ears.
Rong'er was leaning on the warm brick bed, reading a book, but when she heard the sound, she immediately stood up and looked towards the door. When she saw Xiao Qing walking in, she quickly said: ”Quickly! Bring it here and let me have a look. ”
In the letter, Rong Xian asked about Rong'er's health, at the same time, he also asked imperial father if she was still going to the north during the summer break, and if Rong'er was with her.
Seeing this letter, Rong'er's longing for his daughter grew even more. ”Xiao Qing, go trouble Gu Wenxing a bit more and have him help send a message to the emperor. Tell him that I want to meet the emperor.”
”Master, it's not a problem, Gu Wenxing is one of us, if there's anything you need him to do, he can do it.” Xiao Qing replied, then bowed to Rong'er, ”This servant will go first.”
In fact, when she looked at Xiao Qing sometimes, she would feel that it was a very strange feeling. If she hadn't received the Emperor's favor, would she have been like Xiao Qing, a slave for her entire life? What is love? What is love? Every woman in the imperial concubine wanted the Emperor's love and love, but what about these palace maid? A life without a chance to repay affection and love, apart from loneliness is loneliness.
In fact, Rong er could see that there was an emotion between Xiao Qing and Gu Wenxing that was beyond friendship. Although Gu Wenxing was a eunuch, he still listened to Xiao Qing and took care of them with care, so Rong er sometimes considered if they should beg the Emperor to bestow upon them marriage and give them food. At the very least, after this, Xiao Qing would not be lonely anymore …
”Imperial Concubine Rong, what's wrong? Do you have something to rush to see me?” After dinner, Xuan Ye came to the Yanxi Palace.
”Your Majesty, chenqie received Rong Xian's letter.” Rong'er said with a smile.
”Oh, I already know that Ministry of Internal Affairs has reported to me. What did the letter say? Is Rong Xian safe? ” Xuan Ye leaned on the warm brick bed and smiled.
”Your majesty, Rong Xian asked your majesty if you're going to the north again for the summer?” Rong'er walked to Xuan Ye's side and asked softly.
Xuan Ye nodded his head, ”That's right, we are still thinking about it, whether it is going to be a patrol from the north or going to the Spring Garden.”
”Your Majesty, chenqie misses Rong Xian and really wants to see her again.” Rong'er raised her head to look at Xuan Ye. In truth, there was a trace of nervousness in her heart, she was not confident that the Emperor would grant her wish.
