Light Dance Jiajing
Chapter 3 Catching the Emperor's Eyes
The emperor stood up, and then, to everyone's surprise, he also picked up Meng'er. Meng'er, who was over one year old, was very cute, with a pair of innocent big watery eyes. Meng'er blinked her big eyes and quickly examined the emperor's facial features, then met his eyes. His eyes clearly did not have much warmth. Meng'er thought that no one would dare to look into her eyes like that. Meng'er subconsciously wanted to avoid his gaze, but at the same time, a feeling of resentment was aroused in her heart. Why should she be afraid of this irresponsible father? So Meng'er looked at him very innocently and calmly, until his eyes gradually tightened. After a moment, he actually smiled at her with an expressionless face. Meng'er felt relieved when she saw him smiling at her, so she also looked at him with a smile on her face, "Get up, all of you." Zhao Ma and the others thanked her and stood up, their eyes full of surprise and joy.
"Which palace do you live in, Meng'er? Let me take you back." The emperor asked Meng'er softly, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the two snot hanging from her nose.
Madam Zhao quickly replied, "Your Majesty, the princess is living with Concubine Kang in Changchun Palace."
Being held by the emperor, Meng'er felt indescribable in her heart. He was a really bad father. His daughter was over one year old and had never even seen her father. Meng'er pouted her lips. The emperor saw her little action and said, "Why don't you like me, Meng'er?" Meng'er was stunned for a moment, then acted ignorant, as if she didn't understand what he was saying. The emperor looked at her and actually smiled, "Feng Shun, go and get some snacks from my palace." Feng Shun noticed that the emperor didn't use 'I' but 'I'. Could it be that the little girl had caught the emperor's eye? He quickly agreed and turned around to give orders.
In front of the gate of Changchun Palace, the eunuch on duty had gone somewhere to shirk his responsibilities. Ever since Concubine Kang gave birth to Meng'er, Changchun Palace had become increasingly deserted, and there were few concubines visiting the palace. Naturally, the servants became lazy, but the emperor didn't care and walked in holding Meng'er. Concubine Kang was reading in the inner room at this time. By chance, a little palace maid yawned and came out with a tray. When she saw a huge group of people, she was startled and quickly stepped aside. When she saw that the person leading the group was the emperor, she knelt down in a hurry. Meng'er pointed her little hand inside, and the emperor walked in holding her. Concubine Kang was leaning against the couch for a nap. When she raised her eyes, she was surprised to see that the emperor had walked up to her with Meng'er in his arms. She was stunned for a moment, then Concubine Kang stood up and saluted in a panic, "Your Majesty, your servant is here to see you." Concubine Kang was so excited that her voice was trembling. Did the emperor finally remember her?
Kangpin was only seventeen or eighteen years old. Although she was already a mother, she had pretty features. She had long been favored in the harem for her beauty. At this time, she wore no makeup and her hair was loosely tied behind her head, which made her look more charming and more beautiful than flowers. The emperor could not help but look at her twice more. "This child is very interesting." The emperor said as he handed Meng'er to Kangpin.
Kangpin took Meng'er carefully and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, it is Meng'er's blessing to be praised by Your Majesty. I will always bring Meng'er to pay my respects to Your Majesty in the future."
The emperor nodded without comment, but saw Meng'er struggling to get out of Kangpin's arms and throwing herself into his arms again. Her father, the emperor, was a little unprepared and subconsciously took her in. Meng'er hugged his neck and rubbed his face. The emperor's icy face softened a little, "This child is really interesting."
"This child just gets along well with the Emperor. After all, she is the Emperor's flesh and blood. Usually, Mei'er is not so clingy to me!" Kangpin pretended to be sour in her tone, but her eyes were full of joy. How could Kangpin not be happy that Mei'er was so good at pleasing the Emperor? Her mind couldn't help but become active.
Meng'er nestled in the emperor's arms. Whenever the emperor teased her, she would act cute. Meng'er didn't know anything else, but she had been trained to act cute since she was a child. Otherwise, how could she pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger in the harem full of cunning people? Meng'er found that her emperor father was very easy to coax. As long as she rubbed against him in his arms like a kitten, or blinked her big eyes and smiled at him, his eyes would soften. Meng'er was very proud of herself. She had dealt with the biggest boss here, and her life would definitely be better in the future.
After seeing the emperor off, Concubine Kang dismissed the servants and sat upright for a long time holding Meng'er. Meng'er was almost asleep when she heard Concubine Kang muttering softly, "We can't go on like this, Meng'er. Fight for your mother's honor. We must not go on like this." Meng'er felt that Concubine Kang's arms were getting tighter and tighter around her. It was so uncomfortable. Meng'er struggled violently, and Concubine Kang seemed to be awakened. She quickly let go of her hand, and then just looked at Meng'er quietly. Meng'er was really sleepy, and she slowly fell asleep in Concubine Kang's arms.
Concubine Kang called Madam Zhao and said, "You have to be more careful about the princess's daily life in the future. Well, it's time to find some servants for Meng'er. Zai Ji already has four young eunuchs around him. Go find some young and honest girls. Meng'er is now favored by the emperor, so we will rely on Meng'er in the future."
Zhao Ma was very efficient. In a few days, she brought in two little girls, both of whom were only three or four years old. There were no maids this young in the palace, but when the Ministry of Internal Affairs heard that they were going to select maids for Princess Mei, they immediately bought two little girls from outside the palace. They were both pretty. Kangpin held Mei'er in her arms and looked at the two little girls. "Okay, let's keep them. They look like honest children."
"As long as your Majesty is satisfied, I will not be negligent for even a moment after hearing your order..."
Concubine Kang exchanged a few words with the old eunuch with a forced smile, then took out a high-quality jade bracelet from her sleeve and stuffed it into the old eunuch's hand, "I will have to trouble you in the future," the old eunuch did not refuse, bent over and took the bracelet and put it into his sleeve, said a few more polite words and left.
Concubine Kang pondered for a moment and pointed at the two little girls, "Your name should be Luzhu, and yours should be Luluo." The corners of Meng'er's mouth twitched. Mother is really talented. All the palace maids here are named Hong or something, but my palace maids are named Lu. Red should never be paired with green.
