Chapter 76 077:
The emperor came here at this point, obviously did not eat, Song Yunzhao immediately asked someone to add more bowls and chopsticks, then looked at the emperor hesitantly and asked: "How many more dishes will the concubine ask the dining room to add?"
Because the emperor came over suddenly, she was the only one. She was afraid of gaining weight at night and the weather was hot and she had no appetite. She didn't order extra food. It seemed that the dinner was quite light.
"Are you going to eat this at night?" Feng Yi walked over and glanced at the dining table and asked.
There are two Baozhuang cakes on the table, a bowl of Qingfeng Rice, a dish of Yusi Belly and Lung, a dish of Steamed Chicken, a dish of Stir-fried Green Vegetables, and a bowl of Mushroom Lantern Soup.
"Eat lightly at night. It's hot and you can't eat something too greasy." Song Yunzhao pulled the emperor to his seat, pointed to the Qingfeng rice on the table and said, "Just this bowl of rice takes a lot of effort. After steaming the crystal rice, you need to add longan powder, powdered dragon brain, and buttermilk, and then put it in a gold bucket and let it cool down in the ice pool before serving it. It's refreshing to eat on such a day, and the emperor will also try it."
"It's not that I haven't eaten it before, but if you think of it, you will eat it." Feng Yi laughed.
"Of course, those who have nothing to do all day just think about eating, drinking and having fun." Song Yunzhao put the meal in front of the emperor.
Feng Yi picked up the bowl and took a bite, then raised his eyebrows slightly, "A little sour?"
"The concubine asked the dining room to add a little bit of hawthorn juice."
"This is a novel way to eat." Feng Yi quite likes this sweet and sour taste, it really appetizes.
Song Yunzhao also likes to eat. After eating, Feng Yi asked someone to move the chessboard to play against Song Yunzhao.
Song Yunzhao:…
It seems that the emperor wanted to be pure and ascetic tonight, so he used all his tricks to play chess.
Song Yunzhao didn't learn how to play chess systematically. He didn't have systematic moves when he played chess. He always hit here and there, just like punching. Feng Yi was tired playing chess with her.
When the game of chess was over, Feng Yi didn't want to play chess with her anymore, so he quietly grabbed Song Yunzhao's hand and went out for a walk, calling it "Xia Shi".
It's not that Song Yunzhao couldn't see the disgust on his face, but she just pretended not to see it, bad chess skills? That's right, whoever has free time at night has been playing chess with you all the time, look at this, probably the emperor will never ask her to play chess in this life, it is really great.
Didn't bring anyone around, the two of them walked slowly along the corridor of Wangyou Palace. After walking a few steps, Feng Yi looked sideways at Song Yunzhao.
Song Yunzhao felt the emperor's gaze, so he raised his eyes and looked over. Under the moonlight, the emperor's eyes were covered with a bit of moonlight, making it difficult to see clearly.
"The emperor?" Song Yunzhao felt that the emperor seemed to have something to say.
Feng Yi squeezed Song Yunzhao's fingertips, and then said: "You don't have to worry too much about what happened yesterday."
Song Yunzhao felt that the emperor should not have said this at first, but since he said it, she replied, "How can you not take it to heart, Concubine Lu was dismissed because of me, and she will definitely continue to target me in the future. The emperor must protect me."
Concubine Lu must hate her to death, and the confrontation between the two will be very fierce in the future. Of course, this is a scene that the emperor would like to see, but Song Yunzhao has to put on a show to let the emperor know that she is protecting her.
"Can you still suffer?" Feng Yi smiled.
"Yesterday, the concubine was lucky, otherwise it would be hard to say what the result will be." Song Yunzhao lowered his head slightly as he spoke, "If His Majesty came a step late, if Concubine Zhuang failed to stop Concubine Lu, maybe the concubine would really want to..."
"Nonsense!" Feng Yi interrupted Song Yunzhao, "Don't say such things in the future."
Unlucky!
Song Yunzhao smiled, the hand held by the emperor felt a little ache, he still has a conscience, knowing that even a chess piece must be well maintained.
Walking around to eat and go back, Song Yunzhao saw Meng Jiuchang waiting outside the hall, and when he saw them, he immediately came over to greet them.
Feng Yi frowned slightly when he looked at Meng Jiuchang. It's probably not a good thing to come here at this time.
Meng Jiuchang lowered his head and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Concubine Lu has overheated from fright, and the servants of Cuiwei Palace are waiting outside."
Song Yunzhao stared at Meng Jiuchang, but Meng Jiuchang didn't raise his head.
This is what I want to cut off.
"Boss Meng, the emperor is not an imperial physician. Concubine Lu is sick and needs to be treated by an imperial physician. What can the emperor do?"
Meng Jiuchang knew that he had offended someone today when he heard Song Jieyu's words, he hurriedly said with a smile: "What Jieyu said is that Cuiwei Palace came to ask to see His Majesty, how dare the servants keep it secret."
Meng Jiuchang slapped Song Yunzhao a little bit in this remark, Song Yunzhao thought to himself that Meng Jiuchang was very tricky in the book, and it really was.
If Zhang Maoquan was here, things might not have happened like this.
Still overly frightened, those who didn't know thought Song Yunzhao was going to kill Concubine Lu yesterday.
"There is nothing wrong with Mr. Meng's due diligence, but I really don't understand why Concubine Lu is overly frightened. Didn't Mr. Meng see the one who was about to be killed yesterday? I should be the one who was overly frightened. After thinking about it, I really don't understand where Concubine Lu's overly frightened came from. Why don't Mr. Meng tell me about it?"
Meng Jiuchang:...
Song Yunzhao finished beating Meng Jiuchang, turned his head to look at Feng Yi, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, you should go and have a look quickly. If the concubine prevents you from going, don't say you are overly frightened. I'm afraid some unknown crime will be added to the concubine tomorrow."
Song Yunzhao felt that he was not strong enough to complain, so he made an angry and aggrieved look, flung his sleeves, turned and left.
Meng Jiuchang:...
I have never seen a concubine who dares to show her temper in front of the emperor, even the third concubine is not so bold!
Feng Yi saw that Song Yunzhao hated Meng Jiuchang without saying anything, and even took him along with him, why did his temper seem to be getting bigger and bigger.
He stretched out his hand and grabbed Song Yunzhao, "Why are you running?"
Song Yunzhao didn't shake off the emperor's hand this time, but just looked at Meng Jiuchang with a cold face, "This concubine is just being sensible."
Feng Yi looked down at Song Yunzhao, and when he saw her, he didn't look at him. He lowered his head slightly, with his red lips tightly pursed, looking annoyed and wronged.
"I didn't say I want to go there, can you still make the decision for me?"
"Your Majesty, please don't say that. Director Meng is still here. If it gets out, I'm afraid the courtiers' impeachment will bury his concubine."
Meng Jiuchang:...
Song Jieyu turned a corner and scolded him with a big mouth, but he still can't fight back!
Feng Yi almost couldn't hold back his laughter. With a sullen face, he looked at Meng Jiuchang and said, "Let the hospital go to Cuiwei Palace, make sure to make a good diagnosis and treatment, and don't neglect Concubine Lu."
Meng Jiuchang suppressed his surprise, he didn't expect that the emperor would really not go to Cuiwei Palace, he regretted it at this moment, he shouldn't have taken advantage of it to speak for Concubine Lu in front of His Majesty.
"Yes." Meng Jiuchang didn't dare to say anything else, he hurriedly bent down and retreated to the Imperial Hospital to pass the order.
As soon as Meng Jiuchang left, Feng Yi looked at Yun Zhao and said with a smile, "Still angry?"
Song Yunzhao was silent for a moment, without raising his head, just stood there, and said in a cold voice: "Concubine Lu wants to invite the emperor to come over, but she wants to slap me in the face. She knows that you are here and that I was wronged by what happened yesterday, but she still wants to do this. This concubine does not want the emperor to go. If you go, where will I put my face? Besides, what I said is right. You are not an imperial doctor. Can you treat her if you go there?"
Feng Yi could hear that the anger in Yun Zhao's words could not be suppressed, how could he not understand Lu Fei's thoughts, besides, he originally wanted to use Yun Zhao to suppress the arrogance of Lu Fei's father and daughter but did not intend to go, but now listening to Yun Zhao's words, it is rare to feel a little bit guilty.
"I knew, so I didn't go." Feng Yi looked at Yun Zhao.
Song Yunzhao couldn't help complaining when he heard this, is it because she didn't go?
Of course not, the emperor just used her words to overwhelm Concubine Lu.
Another day of good acting.
Song Yunzhao hugged the emperor's arm, with a smile on his face, "That's because what the concubine said makes sense, the emperor is a wise king."
Feng Yi laughed, and took Yun Zhao's hand back to the hall.
This night, because of this matter, Yun Zhao was not in the mood to have **** with the emperor, and apparently the emperor was not in the mood either, so he turned on the lamp and went to sleep after washing up.
Early the next morning, the emperor got up early, and Song Yunzhao got up to serve.
I didn’t work hard last night, so I have to make up for it in the morning, and I have to play the word virtuous.
However, Song Yunzhao would not wear dragon robes for the emperor. She doubted life in wearing more than ten layers inside and out.
Feng Yi laughed loudly, asked Meng Jiuchang to come forward to serve him, and said to Yun Zhao, "You don't need to worry about what I said."
Song Yunzhao made a look of embarrassment, "I just want to do my best, but I don't know that I am too stupid to make the emperor laugh."
Feng Yi thinks that she is really not very dexterous. She stayed in another palace before, and the third concubine was at least able to serve and change clothes very well. Think about Song Yunzhao's needlework when he was in the Spring Palace, so don't think about it.
"You are so virtuous, what is the use of people like Meng Jiuchang? I see you should leave them a bite to eat."
Meng Jiuchang:...
"Ms. Jieyu held her hands high." Meng Jiuchang hurriedly laughed along with her, and he could see that this person really couldn't be offended right now.
Song Yunzhao showed a smirk, "Mr. Meng really likes to joke."
Meng Jiuchang sighed in his heart, he had to be more cautious when encountering Wangyou Palace in the future.
However, there are not people in this palace who are arrogant without being favored, but the end is not very good.
Song Jieyu is indeed beautiful, and the emperor is also in high spirits, but no matter how good-looking a beauty is, her flowering period will expire. When that time comes, he will see if she can still be so arrogant.
After seeing off the emperor, Song Yunzhao lost his sleepiness and simply went to the study.
She didn't have time to read the letter from Xie Linlang sent by the eldest lady yesterday, so she just took it out to read the letter at this moment.
Opening the letter, Song Yunzhao smiled slightly after reading it. The preparations for "The Romance of the West Chamber" were almost done, and Xie Jinshu actually bought a theater with the troupe from the original theater. This really surprised her.
Looking at what Xie Linlang said in the letter, if the theatrical troupe will tour around as she said in the future, then the troupe is indispensable, one troupe is not enough, Xie Jinshu is still looking for good actors to sing.
Actors who sing opera these days are no more sought after than later generations. They belong to the lower ranks and have no social status.
Song Yunzhao's current status and status, she can only sigh, no matter how much she can do right now.
But everything is going according to plan, and when "Romance of the West Chamber" really becomes popular in theaters, that's when she will make money.
It is estimated that it will take another month to see the effect, Song Yunzhao is quite looking forward to it.
Burned the letter from Xie Linlang to her, and poured a cup of tea on the ashes, and then someone came in and took the porcelain basin out for cleaning.
She is not in a hurry to write a new play, she still has to wait for the market reaction.
Slowly walked out of the study and walked along the corridor. The breeze in the summer morning brought a little bit of coolness, which gradually woke up her somewhat chaotic mind.
Find a gooseneck chair and sit down, thinking about how to go next.
I always feel that the heroine is too quiet, which makes her feel uneasy, but Qin Xiyue can't catch the handle when she does things, always passively waiting like this makes people feel restless.
Really annoying.
"Master, it's time for breakfast." Shi Zhu looked all the way over and said with a smile.
Song Yunzhao stood up, "Why so early?"
"Dawn comes earlier in summer, and it's the time of day now." Shi Zhu said.
Song Yunzhao was taken aback, it was really late, Han Jinyi arrived not long after going back for breakfast.
When you see Song Yunzhao, you are greeted, "Concubine pays respects to Empress Jieyu."
"Get up quickly." Song Yunzhao stretched out his hand to help Han Jinyi up, "You are going to have trouble with me."
Han Jinyi smiled, "Courtesy cannot be discarded."
Song Yunzhao asked people to serve tea, looked at Han Jinyi and said, "We don't need to be so polite when there is no one around, and I still have to work hard to help you, so save your energy."
Han Jinyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "That won't work, next time you don't have to help me, I'll get up by myself."
Song Yunzhao smiled and shook his head, "Did you have something to tell me when you came here yesterday?"
Han Jinyi nodded, "There is something, but yesterday was a good day for you, so I didn't say anything because there were too many people."
"Tell me, what is it?"
At this time, Xiangxue brought tea, put down the teacup and retreated.
Han Jinyi took the opportunity to gather his composure, and after Xiangxue went down, he looked at Song Yunzhao and said softly, "It was my family who sent me the news that Lu Xiang's disciples were transferred to Yucheng."
Song Yunzhao frowned, "Really?"
Han Jinyi nodded, "The official document has been sent, otherwise my mother would not send the message in. Don't worry, my mother will remind Mrs. Song of the Song family."
Now she is considered to be on Yunzhao's boat, if something happens to the Song family and Yunzhao is implicated, then she will naturally suffer along with her.
Song Yunzhao sneered, "Meng Lu really valued it."
Han Jinyi knew that Yun Zhao was very angry when she heard this. She thought about it and said, "We can't help you in the palace. Let me tell you, I also hope that you can restrain your family and don't make big troubles and get caught."
Song Yunzhao remembered what the eldest lady said yesterday, and thought that the eldest lady is really the demeanor of a housewife. If she hadn't said those words to herself yesterday, she would be in a hurry today.
So, she looked at Han Jinyi and said, "My uncle has always been honest and prudent when he was an official. My father is a humble official. I am not worried about this."
"That's good." Han Jinyi also heaved a sigh of relief, "As long as your home is safe, you will be safe in the palace. Now that you are in great favor, it would be even better if you can spread good news again."
Song Yunzhao looked at Han Jinyi's eyes looking at her stomach, and didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to show an embarrassed look to fool him.
Who can say for sure about pregnancy. It is a shortcut to get promoted by virtue of pregnancy, but this shortcut is just icing on the cake for her.
What she has to do is to make the emperor really put her in his heart, so that her position will be stable.
Han Jinyi didn't say this again, looked at him and said: "I just lay down unwell that day, but I didn't know that you met Concubine Lu in the Imperial Garden. Fortunately, you are fine."
"Sooner or later, Concubine Lu has disliked me for a long time, and she has long wanted to find an opportunity to target me." Song Yunzhao said, "Besides, if you went there that day and really wanted to help me, you might be angered by Concubine Lu. There were so many people present at the time, who would dare to stand out easily? I understand your intentions, but it is better not to make unnecessary sacrifices in such a situation."
Han Jinyi's heart was quite complicated when she heard this, and she didn't expect Yun Zhao to protect her like this, "You have become Jieyu now, and your status is higher than An Fangyi's. In the past two days, I have seen An Fangyi, who never likes to go out, always go out. You really have become a celebrity in the palace."
An Fangyi?
If Han Jinyi hadn't mentioned it, she wouldn't have thought of this person, "Speaking of which, An Fangyi didn't seem to show up that day."
"Well, I have lived with An Fangyi in the first house for so long, and I rarely see her go out, so seeing her running out these two days, I feel that the fact that you have been promoted to two levels in a row has a great impact on people."
"An Fangyi also came out to face Zhen Meiren." Song Yunzhao looked at Han Jinyi and said.
Han Jinyi listened to what Yun Zhao said and thought about it, then nodded and said, "Don't tell me, I didn't think about it for a while, and it's strange to think about it now. An Fangyi is not a nosy person."
"How did she treat you?" Song Yunzhao asked.
"An Fangyi's status is higher than mine, but she didn't feel sorry for me, and I didn't need to go over to pay her respects. We are safe and get along well." Han Jinyi said.
Song Yunzhao nodded, "That's good."
"Lu Zhixue went to my place last night."
"Lu Zhixue?" Song Yunzhao was a little surprised.
"Yeah, I didn't expect it either. I think she has changed a lot after these two incidents." Han Jinyi said with a sigh.
These ladies in the capital are actually more or less intertwined. Lu Zhixue's temper before entering the palace was not as competitive as it was after entering the palace, but she was confused about Shang Yunzhao.
"I know it hurts when I hit the south wall." Song Yunzhao said without expression, "Lu Zhixue asked you to complain? She has always had a good relationship with Concubine Qin, shouldn't she go to her?"
Speaking of this, Han Jinyi's expression was a little strange, "It is reasonable to say that, Lu Zhixue didn't mention Concubine Qin Gui in front of me. It seems that there should be some quarrel between the two of them."
"You were not there that day. Concubine Zhuang asked Concubine Qin about Lu Zhixue giving me a congratulatory gift. Concubine Qin said she didn't know about it. There were so many people there at the time, even if she didn't know, she should have said something fair for Lu Zhixue, but she didn't."
The smile on Han Jinyi's face disappeared, she knew that Yun Zhao would not lie to her, but she did not expect Qin Xiyue to do so.
"She wasn't like this before." Han Jinyi sighed. After entering the palace, everyone changed. "No wonder Lu Zhixue went to look for me, I'm afraid she'd be sad when she found out about this."
"Whether I'm hurt or not has nothing to do with me. In short, you should be more careful when you meet Concubine Qin Gui in the future." Song Yunzhao couldn't say more, and could only remind him a little.
"After entering the palace, I didn't have much contact with you. I walked closer to you, but I was far away from them." Han Jinyi smiled, "If we can talk together, we can communicate more. If we can't, we can live in peace."
She is not easy to bully.
"Huh? Speaking of which, Lu Zhixue asked Feng Xiaoyuan to pass me a message last time. Why didn't she go to her this time?" Song Yunzhao suddenly thought of this and asked.
Han Jinyi shook her head, "I don't know either."
Song Yunzhao felt that something was wrong, which was completely different from the direction in the book, which made her feel in a bad crisis.
Seeing Song Yunzhao remain silent, Han Jinyi thought for a while and said, "Why don't I talk to Feng Xiaoyuan and find out?"
Song Yunzhao shook his head, "Don't go, Feng Xiaoyuan is a smart person, since Lu Zhixue didn't look for her, it is possible that the deal between them was broken once."
Han Jinyi understood that Feng Xiaoyuan should have owed Lu Zhixue a favor, or that Feng's family owed Lu's family, and this time it was a favor.
After the favor is paid off, naturally there is no need to continue to be tied together.
Han Jinyi sighed slightly. In the past, everyone at least had a happy face, but now they are doing their own thing.
"I heard that some courtiers are now talking about the Empress Li."
"Empress?" Song Yunzhao was taken aback. There was indeed such a thing in the book, but it had to be pushed back. The courtiers would bring up the matter of empress until Qin Xiyue's eyes turned red with the third concubine and they wanted to use it to suppress Qin Xiyue.
At that time, Qin Taifu Lao Dang Yizhuang supported his daughter and confronted the family of the three concubines in the court.
But it won’t work to switch to Song Yunzhao right now, because the Song family has no one standing in the court.
Song Yunzhao suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. If no one from the Song family stood in the hall, there would be no way for the emperor to engage in vertical and horizontal tactics, so now his opponents are the four major families of Qin Taifu and Sanfei's natal family.
She didn't expect this!
Song Yunzhao was shocked, how could she forget this.
Seeing Song Yunzhao's uneasy expression, Han Jinyi asked worriedly: "Yunzhao, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"
Song Yunzhao shook his head, his eyes fell on Han Jinyi, yes, there is no one standing in the court hall of the Song family for the time being, but there is Dali Siqing.
According to what Han Jinyi said, the Han family still has a friendly attitude towards the Song family, and will give news in advance if there is danger. Thinking of this, Song Yunzhao thought about it carefully, and she remembered that the minister of Dali Temple in the book was doomed.
However, she couldn't remember exactly what it was for a while, and it was mentioned in the book a few times, but now it is a great opportunity for her to win over the Han family.
