Chapter 215: Concubine Wu is timid
At least Qingyin was quite satisfied with the meal, and Fulin was also very satisfied with the service.
"Wanwan, try this. These are freshly imported crabs from the south. They have plenty of roe at this time of year and are very delicious when steamed."
"And this roasted mutton is from the Tan sheep that Yancheng sent as tribute. The meat is tender and juicy and melts in your mouth."
…Occasionally, he would say in his introduction to Qingyin, “Mother, try the tofu in the fish soup. It’s soft and tasty.”
Fulin's double standards are obvious and serious.
Qingyin pursed her lips and looked at the small bowls piled up like a mountain, feeling a little helpless.
In the end, except for Qingyin who was a little full, probably no one else enjoyed the meal very much.
Although Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang was advised by the Queen, she could not help but be choked by her son's cheap look and lost her mood to eat.
The Queen enjoyed watching the show, while Emperor Fulin simply cared about having successfully fed Qingyin's silly music. As long as he was satisfied with the love, he wouldn't care whether his own stomach was full or not.
After the meal, the Queen Mother was too lazy to keep the Emperor.
The emperor happily took Qingyin away, while the queen stayed to talk to her aunt.
On the way back, Fulin held Qingyin's hand all the time, smiling happily and contentedly, and glanced at the girl beside him from time to time. Qingyin didn't bother to care about the emperor's appearance. She was thinking about the attitude of the empress dowager and the queen today.
The Queen Mother and the Empress are aunt and niece, and they are close. Although she doesn't like her very much, with the Empress's matchmaking, she doesn't get to a worse level with her. However, this is only temporary. Later, Qingyin has a thousand ways to please this ancestor, but the most labor-saving and direct way is undoubtedly to rely on the child. Qingyin rubbed her brows, not wanting to be seen by the man next to her.
A concerned and excited voice came from the side: "Wanwan, do you have a headache? Otherwise, I will ask the imperial physician to come!"
As he spoke, a certain man couldn't help but make some moves. He took his free hand and held Qingyin's hand that was rubbing her eyebrows, looking at her with great heartache.
Qingyin was speechless as she looked at the infatuated emperor who was holding her hand and wished he could kiss it (Tian).
She pulled her hand away ruthlessly, "No need, Your Majesty, I just feel a little sour between my eyebrows."
Fulin was embarrassed: "Hehe."
In the afternoon, Qingyin was watching a movie leisurely in the space, but on the surface she was taking a nap on the recliner. As she was watching, she actually felt sleepy and fell asleep.
Fulin, who was standing aside, would occasionally glance at Qingyin, who was squinting, with a smile on his face, and then flip through the memorials in his hand, as if he regarded Qingyin as a spiritual pillar of encouragement. Whenever he felt tired, he would glance at Qingyin, and then he would regain his energy and continue to deal with the memorials.
In this way, Fulin actually felt that the usual tedious and complicated memorials were no longer so boring. He seemed to taste a special sweetness in so many densely packed words, which sweetened his heart.
In a blink of an eye, Fulin seemed to have completely forgotten about his Baohe Hall. He stayed in the Qiming Palace all day, slept on the floor in Qingyin's room at night, and was full of energy during the day.
Especially after Qingyin no longer gave off the same cold and unapproachable aura as before, Fulin became even more shameless. Before, he brought a small number of memorials to review, but later he simply moved all his memorials to the Qiming Palace.
Relying on the fact that all the people in Qiming Palace are his own people, Fulin has no intention of restraining himself. The people in the palace are originally the emperor's people, so naturally no one will say anything. Now that they are assigned to Qingyin by the emperor, they are naturally half of Qingyin's people. They hope that the new master they are following will be favored, so that they can have a better future.
People outside don't know that the emperor has not slept with the newly returned Concubine Wan yet. In their eyes, the newly returned Concubine Wan is a unique vixen, even more powerful than the original Dong Efei, who seduced His Majesty to bring her back to the palace, and she monopolizes the emperor every day, day and night.
Then some people could no longer sit still. The Manchu, Han, and Mongolian concubines in the palace all had objections, especially the most outspoken Mongolian concubines. Thinking that the queen was also a noble lady of the Mongolian ethnic group, they carelessly expressed their dissatisfaction directly when the queen was paying her respects.
"Empress, that Wanpin monopolizes the emperor every day, and relies on the emperor's favor to not come to pay respects. It's really infuriating!"
"Yes, yes! In the past, the emperor would sometimes go to the palace for a walk, but now it's all Qiming Palace, and you can't even see the shadow of the emperor."
……
Mengguqing, who was sitting at the top, listened to the chirping women's voices below and suddenly felt as if she was surrounded by a group of summer cicadas, which made her feel annoyed and irritated.
Rubbing his swollen temples, Mengguqing looked sharply at the big fool Wu Fei who spoke first. The Mongolian noble lady of her race was not tall like Mongolian women, but petite and delicate like the women of the Central Plains. Therefore, Wu Fei was famous for being favored by the Mongolian people when she was young, so this child was raised astray. She is not a bad person, but stupid and arrogant. She is the concubine who is most likely to be used as a target in the harem. If she is ranked second in IQ in the palace, probably no one would dare to claim to be the first.
But she also has a characteristic, which is that she is afraid of Mengguqing. It probably stems from her childhood experiences. At that time, both of them grew up in Mongolia and knew each other but didn't know each other. Then one day... Mengguqing first took a fancy to a foal, and then they came to the stage of paying the money. Then Wufei, Unayi, took a fancy to it and started begging for it, shamelessly asking for it from their eldest brother. Mengguqing is actually a domineering person in her heart. It's not that she is unpopular at home. Besides, who isn't a baby at home? Why should she be given in to?
Mengguqing refused to give way to her, but Unai, who had always been obeyed, was not happy about it. Unai, who was furious, stepped forward and bit Mengguqing's arm, and kept hitting her with her hands.
After that, Mengguqing, who had practiced martial arts since childhood, was furious. You wanted to steal things, but you also hit people! Then Unaiyi was beaten up by Mengguqing. Oh, and there was also Unaiyi's elder brother. He wanted to stop him, but the twelve-year-old Mengguqing beat him up as well. That's right, the 18-year-old elder brother Unaiyi was not beaten by the twelve-year-old Mengguqing, and he got a brand new suit with a bruised face.
It's the kind of thing that gets laughed at in Mongolia for a whole month and is mentioned once a year.
So this is why Unayi is so afraid of Mengguqing. This is a tough guy who even beat up her eldest brother. Until she became an adult, Mengguqing was always the big devil in her heart. Later, when she heard that the Emperor of Qing was planning a marriage, she agreed to her father's request without saying a word and married the Emperor of Qing overnight.
Unexpectedly, a year later, she saw the familiar big devil again - Mengguqing, and she was her direct superior, the queen.
Unai: “…” She felt miserable inside, but life had to go on.
"Wu Fei!" So after a look and a straightforward warning from Mengguqing, the anger that Wu Nayi had provoked was extinguished, and there was not even a possibility of smoke starting.
