Chapter 195

After dismissing these court ladies, Huangfu Mohan asked someone to bring in the flowers.

The accompanying eunuchs were a little puzzled. Didn't the emperor like concubine Jin to hold it in his hand for fear of falling, and put it in his mouth for fear of melting? Taking this flower in, could it be that he really wanted Concubine Jin to practice flower arranging?

Didn't dare to ask more questions, so the eunuchs had to follow suit.

Huangfu Mohan went into the inner room and took a look at Du Jinyi. Seeing that she was sleeping soundly, he backed out again.

The eunuchs put the flowers on the desk, and he took off his clothes and sat down with interest.

Picking up a flower, he stared at it for a long time, and finally couldn't help but smile, as if seeing this flower, it was like seeing Du Jinyi.

When the little eunuch saw him pick up the flowers, he couldn't help being taken aback. Could it be that the emperor planned to arrange the flowers himself in order to help the concubine Jin with a job?
It seems that the emperor is really partial to the concubine Jin.

But in the next second, Huangfu Mohan stopped an extremely beautiful and coquettish flower from the flower base and broke off the root branch, and then ruthlessly inserted the root branch from the middle of the flower stamen.

The eunuch couldn't help touching his forehead, he had never seen such a flower arrangement before, the emperor is sure he is helping the concubine Jin?
However, it is estimated that the emperor himself wants to play.

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Mohan cut off the roots and branches of all the flowers like this, and then inserted the stamens like this. Some of the roots and branches inserted four or five flowers in a row, just like the practice of the candied haws.

After it was done, Huangfu Mohan put the flowers in a vase, and told the eunuch to send the inserted flowers to Ningkun Palace.

The corner of the eunuch's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and finally, under the influence of authority, he went to Ningkun Palace with the vase in his arms.

Huangfu Mohan came back after washing his hands, and found that Du Jinyi was still sleeping. When he was bored, he put on his clothes and went to Ningkun Palace.

The laughter of Ningkun Palace was heard from a long distance away, before Huangfu Mohan approached, he met two more court ladies on the road.

"What are you going to do?" Huangfu Mohan stopped the two of them and asked.

The maids lowered their heads and replied, "Go back to the emperor, the empress dowager asked the servants to summon the concubine Jin."

"No need to go! Who is in Ningkun Palace? Why is it so lively?"

"Back to the emperor, the empress dowager is too bored, and the daughters of those princes and ministers from yesterday were summoned!"

Huangfu Mohan nodded, and went to Ningkun Palace calmly, met the little eunuch who wanted to report, Huangfu Mohan signaled him not to pass the report.

"Oh, it's ridiculous that my stomach hurts. I've never seen flowers arranged like this. I have to say that Empress Jin's taste is really bad..."

"I heard that Concubine Jin is not Lord Du's daughter at all, but a country girl who was recorded on the genealogy. It would be reasonable to explain it this way. After all, no lady with a little common sense would arrange flowers like this..."

"I don't know what kind of tricks this woman used to turn the emperor upside down. I don't know if she knows some kind of witchcraft. I heard that there is a kind of witchcraft, which is especially good at capturing men's hearts. As long as he acts properly, this man will only see her in his heart, and he will not tolerate any other women, and he will not listen to anyone saying bad things about her..."

"It really makes sense..."

"Empress Dowager, why don't we invite a Taoist priest to visit the palace..."

At the gate of the palace, when Huangfu Mohan heard the words inside, the icicles in his eyes could almost freeze people off.

He went in calmly, the people in the palace were talking about Xing Xing, they didn't notice Huangfu Mohan's arrival at all, when someone reminded him, Huangfu Mohan had already walked to the front.

The daughters of the ministers who were talking about Concubine Jin turned pale with fright, and quickly knelt down on the ground trembling.

Huangfu Mohan seemed to have never heard any unfavorable remarks to Concubine Jin, with a gentle face, looking at the Empress Dowager and the group of Yingying and Yanyan around him, he asked with a smile,
"Is the flower I planted beautiful?"

"Ah... Your Majesty, are these the flowers you planted? Are you joking, you..."

"Your Majesty, don't worry about Concubine Jin, are you really fascinated by Concubine Jin?"

"By the way, your majesty, why don't you come to Ningkun Palace today when you are free, and don't let anyone tell you what to do if the courtiers are slow to neglect the emperor..."

Seeing the smile on Huangfu Mohan's face, not seeming to be angry with them, these noble ladies cheekily started to get close to Huangfu Mohan.

Huangfu Mohan slightly pulled his lips into a smile, "Concubine Jin is still resting, I saw the flowers sent by the Empress Dowager, so I played with them casually, and when I was bored, I wanted to hear your opinions, why, can't I?

If it is really possible to have a face like that of others before and after, what does it matter if you are talented or not, don't you think? "

Huangfu Mohan's leisurely voice sounded, and the noble ladies lowered their heads and their faces were pale.

The Empress Dowager saw that there was something wrong with Huangfu Mohan today, so she couldn't help reminding, "The Ai family thinks that these noble ladies are right, the emperor is so bewitched by Concubine Jin, and it's not her. No, other concubines are not accepted, maybe they have practiced some kind of witchcraft to lose people, the emperor might as well find a Taoist priest to have a look!"

"The words of the Empress Dowager and the noble ladies are all reasonable. There will be a banquet in the harem two days later, and this matter will be discussed again! I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you all!"

Huangfu Mohan left without saying a word.

The empress dowager and a group of noble ladies are unbelievable.

What happened to the emperor today?Why didn't you help Concubine Jin talk, and started to go along with them?

Is the emperor tired of Concubine Jin?Or was Concubine Jin offending the emperor, causing him to turn his back on him?
Or maybe the emperor also felt that the witchcraft they said was justified, thinking that Concubine Jin had cast a Gu on him?
No matter which one it is, it means that Concubine Jin's good days are coming to an end, as long as the emperor no longer favors them exclusively, they will have a chance to enter the palace and gain favor.

For the palace banquet two days later, they must dress up beautifully.

The empress dowager felt that Huangfu Mohan's words were not so simple. He must have some kind of conspiracy. What exactly is he trying to do?

When Huangfu Mohan returned to Jiaofang Hall, Du Jinyi just got dressed and got up.

Seeing her getting up, Huangfu Mohan happily showed her the flowers he had arranged, "Jin'er, do you think the flowers I arranged look good?"

Du Jinyi didn't look at it at all, just patted his head and hurried out, muttering as he walked, "...It's so itchy..."

Huangfu Mohan took two steps back to stop her, "Where does it itch..."

"Oh, make room for me, I'm going to find my eldest sister..."

Du Jinyi was a little irritable, and was about to run out after pushing away Huangfu Mohan.

Huangfu Mohan became anxious, "What do you want her for?"

"I'm going to find her, get out of the way!" Du Jin blushed anxiously.

"I'll help you!" Huangfu Mohan lowered his head and whispered in her ear.

Du Jinyi couldn't take it anymore, she pushed him away hard, "You can't, don't stop me!"

Huangfu Mohan was stuck for a long time, and her words kept playing back in his ears, "You can't, you can't, you can't..."

God damn it, when did he fail, and when did he fail?

If he can't do it, her sister can do it?
But is this what I understand?
Huangfu Mohan sat in the study, turning a clean brush, unable to read a single word of the memorial on the desk.

He couldn't help but raised his head and asked Han Jiang, "Where is Concubine Jin, where is she now?"

"Back to the emperor, Concubine Jin went to the scholar's mansion and stayed with her elder sister."

Huangfu Mohan frowned, lost his pen and went to the scholar's mansion.
