Chapter 312 Don't Take Her
It was not until Yan Wan woke up the next morning that she found out that the emperor had summoned Ruyi yesterday, but the two had quarreled in the Yangxin Palace. Ruyi left in anger, and the emperor came to her.
Yan Wan: “…”
She snorted quietly, "No wonder the emperor let me lean on him last night. It turns out he feels guilty too."
After having a bad time at Ruyi's place, he ran to her place to relax.
As expected of the emperor, he really knows how to enjoy life.
Seeing her laugh, Chunchan also laughed: "Your Majesty, why don't you ask Concubine Xian to go to Yuanmingyuan with you? I'm afraid Concubine Xian will think it's you who instigated it again."
Yan Wan sat in front of the dressing table, choosing jewelry, and chuckled, "She can think whatever she wants. The more unhappy she is, the more foolish she is in doing things, and the more the emperor dislikes her."
Chunchan took the jewelry she had chosen, put them on in the right places one by one, and couldn't help but say, "Master, it's really beautiful."
Yan Wan's eyebrows, which were already curved, suddenly curved several degrees more, and she said with a smile: "The Queen often praises me for looking good in pink, so today I will wear that rose pink cloak."
Lan Cui came over with clothes in her hands: "Master, you are good-looking, and you look good in anything you wear!"
Yan Wan was made to laugh by the two of them. After packing up, she went to Changchun Palace.
As she was about to go out, even though Empress Fucha had rarely been in charge of affairs due to health reasons, Yan Wan never failed to pay the necessary respects and report matters. Whenever in public, she always followed Empress Fucha's lead, for fear that someone would be short-sighted and make Empress Fucha uncomfortable.
Today is the day when the concubines pay their respects to the Queen every month. As usual, Yan Wan arrives the earliest so that she can talk more with Queen Fucha and check on her physical condition to see if she can hold on to the upcoming events.
Empress Fucha was in a very good mood today. When she saw Yan Wan, she smiled and waved at her: "Did you receive Jing Jue's letter? She is really bold. She just got married and she dealt with an old servant who had been around the prince consort for many years and found a lot of embezzled property."
She spoke with pride and worry, and couldn't help but hold back tears in her eyes.
Yan Wan walked over quickly, took the letter from Empress Fucha, read it one by one, and felt excited and proud.
This little girl was led onto a path that was completely different from her previous life!
She clenched the letter in her hand: "She is really biased. She only sent letters to the queen, but not to me. She is afraid that I will not come to see the queen, so she did it on purpose!"
Empress Fucha chuckled softly: "Are you angry with her?"
Yan Wan chuckled: "Such an obvious method, she now likes to use overt schemes. I just hope she can be more powerful, even more powerful!"
Empress Fucha smiled and grabbed her hand, saying gently, "I see, she is not trying to use force on you, but is angry that you haven't written enough letters recently."
Yan Wan blinked guiltily and said coquettishly, "But there are only a few things going on in the palace. Concubine Xian has been making fewer noises recently, so there are naturally fewer jokes. Some jokes are big, but I dare not write them in the letter!"
Empress Fucha looked at her with amusement and said, "You two, sometimes you are really smart, and sometimes you are like naive children."
Yan Wan sat beside her and said, "Your Majesty, Jing Jing will definitely be doing well. Don't be afraid. I will accompany you and wait for her to come back to see us."
Empress Fucha hummed and asked about Concubine Jia and Concubine Xian in a low voice: "The emperor's meaning is unclear, so I am not allowed to say anything casually."
Recently, she has learned more and more about how to be a queen. Although she basically no longer takes charge of affairs, ridiculously, she does understand better how to get along with her husband and the king.
Yan Wan lowered her voice and briefly explained the matter to Empress Fucha.
Empress Fucha was surprised: "Is Concubine Jia with that...really?"
Yan Wan nodded: "It is true that she was deeply in love with him, but that was in the past. Now, she is different from Concubine Xian."
Empress Fucha couldn't help laughing: "You are such a mischievous ghost!"
Yan Wan smiled sweetly: "Anyway, I can't be like them. I must love myself first, get what I want, and have no regrets. I won't even become a resentful woman because of this."
If I had said this in my previous life, I would have felt really guilty, but it feels just right to say it in this life.
She had also thought about helping the person she had wronged when fighting for power, but looking back now, she never owed Ling Yunche anything, but it was Ling Yunche who owed her a life.
Even Jinzhong, whom she holds tightly in her hand now, is because he is cruel enough to himself but indulgent enough to her. Otherwise, even if she still wants to spend her life with her beloved, she will choose to hold his ashes that will not betray her and ask him to accompany her for the rest of her life.
Her smile was sweet and clean, like a jasmine flower washed by nectar, without any dirt on her body.
Empress Fucha pinched her cheek and said, "You can only say this to me. You must not tell anyone else. Do you understand?"
She emphasized the word "anyone" and put more emphasis on it, obviously referring to something specific.
Yan Wan's ears turned red: "I know."
How could she tell Jinzhong that, of course, she always told him the truth - how could she leave him? If she left him, she would be sad to death, sick to death, and lonely and helpless.
Yan Wan was too embarrassed to continue talking about her feelings, so she held Empress Fucha's hand and whispered, "I have reached a cooperation with Concubine Jia. She is a smart person and will be a good knife in my hand to keep Concubine Xian busy.
Please take good care of your health. If there is anything that needs to be done, leave it to me. If there is anything I have done wrong, please teach me a lesson. I promise to listen carefully and change it next time."
A gentle and helpless smile appeared on Empress Fucha's pale face: "You always treat me as fragile porcelain."
Seeing Yan Wan's eyes turn red, she quickly surrendered: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, all the same."
Yan Wan smiled brightly, carefully pinched a little with her fingertips and wiped the corners of her eyes with her handkerchief, then turned to ask the head palace maid, "Is your Majesty's ginseng tea ready? Remember to bring it up at a fixed time and place later. It must be warm. Don't let your Majesty have it cold just because the weather is hot."
The eldest palace maid nodded with a smile: "Yes, don't worry, Your Majesty, it will be warm."
Empress Fucha: “…”
She looked at Yan Wan with amusement and helplessness, and finally she could only smile gently: "You are so naughty."
When Yan Wan helped her to the front hall, she stopped smiling and became the dignified and steady queen again. She glanced at the people below and said calmly:
"The Emperor has decided to go to the Old Summer Palace to escape the summer heat in three days. Concubine Xian, the Emperor has specifically asked you to take care of the affairs in the palace."
In one sentence, Ruyi's face turned black.
