The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem

Chapter 381: What a Pity She is My Brother's Wife

Because the story told by Princess Rong Le was so interesting and funny, the emperor, who was always generous in sharing fun, naturally recommended his own sister to Xie Yuzhen.

Princess Rongle, who could only lie on the couch because of her injuries, was carried into Shouning Palace by the palace servants.

As for Princess Rong Le, Xie Yuzhen had only met her a few times and had a good relationship with her, but he was not very familiar with her. He was inquiring with Lin Qiao about the fall incident that happened in Heyi Tower that day, when he suddenly heard a palace servant come to report that the emperor had sent the other party in one piece.

Xie Yuzhen:......

She reluctantly ordered the palace servants to invite Princess Rong Le in, and asked them to temporarily clear the tables and chairs on one side of the hall to make room for Princess Rong Le's low couch. "Your Majesty is really ridiculous. The princess is seriously ill, how can you move her around like this?"

The emperor's action was just like a dog holding a toy in its mouth and wanting to share it with a "good friend", but Xie Yuzhen could see that this man was a wolf pretending to be a stupid dog. Even his closest relatives, princesses from wealthy families, were just objects for him to have fun and pass the time.

However...Princess Rong Le, as the emperor's sister, her words still carried a certain weight among the royal family and officials when the emperor was not hostile to her.

Xie Yuzhen couldn't help but suspect that the emperor did this not only for fun, but also to deliberately make things difficult for Princess Rong Le so that she, as the queen, would do the good of the situation and win her over to his side.

If you think about it carefully, this bastard is not incapable of doing such a thing - he has accepted the fact that his throne will most likely be passed on to Lu Weiyuan in the future. In addition to giving Lu Weiyuan the same training and attention as the prince, or even slightly more than that, the emperor also does not hesitate to give the mother of the future crown prince enough political resources.

but.

It was one thing that he was willing to give it, but whether Xie Yu could really accept it was not within the emperor's consideration.

He was happy to see his new wife thrive in the soil called imperial power, and he also looked forward to Xie Yu truly blooming into the flower he wanted to see most, a flower filled with poison and power.

He would provide nourishment and also spread wind and rain. If, as the prophecy said, the woman he loved could bring prosperity to the world, the emperor would be willing to build a few bricks and stones for their daughter. If their daughter was not as expected in the future, he, as a father, could also protect his favorite daughter. As a husband, he could also continue to hold the gorgeous flower he had cultivated with his own hands in his hands.

Xie Yuzhen, who was well aware of the situation of his mother and daughter, wanted to greet his ancestors 365 days a year. Why couldn't he have tried harder so that he could have an ancestral throne?

With deep envy for the emperor, Xie Yuzhen smiled softly at Princess Rongle who was carried in by the palace servants, and said bluntly: "Your Majesty is really making a fuss. Is there anything wrong with my sister during her journey here?"

Princess Rong Le also smiled: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. Please forgive me for not being able to stand up and greet you now..."

"We are all family members, why do you have to say such unorthodox words?" Xie Yuzhen turned his head and glanced at Concubine Xu, "A Yuan, please take my mother and Guanying down to rest. We have been talking for so long, it would be good to go out for a walk."

Concubine Xu stood up and responded.

Princess Rong Le's eyes tilted, "Your Majesty, we are all family members. I came to your palace just to chat and tell you some interesting things to amuse you. It's not a big deal. Madam Tai and Master Lin don't have to avoid it."

Xie Yuzhen looked at her expression and didn't seem to be reluctant, so he walked down from the phoenix throne. Xia Zhi quickly pulled a chair and placed it next to Princess Rong Le's low couch.

There was some surprise in Princess Rong Le's eyes, but more of it was curiosity - curiosity about how the Queen would treat her.

Earlier in Heyi Tower, during the witty exchanges between her and Lin Qiao, she avoided mentioning that she could go to the Yongjia Marquis's Mansion to visit the two girls. This was because Princess Rong Le was well aware of the way to protect herself and was not very willing to have too deep a connection with the powerful Xie family of Yongjia Marquis.

After all, she grew up in the royal family and had seen the ups and downs of the emperor's favorite concubines and favorite ministers. If Empress Xie had a son and the emperor was about to die, it was not impossible for her to fight for her own future wealth and glory. It was just that now... it was not that time yet.

But the emperor's move made Princess Rong Le somewhat confused.

Although she acted as close to the emperor as a real sister in front of the emperor, Princess Rong Le knew very well that she and the emperor did not have much deep friendship. The only difference between her and his jesters in the palace was that she was still a princess of the royal family. If she committed any crime in the future, she would be more forgiven than others. Even if she was guilty of treason, she could die with dignity.

After thinking about it for a while, Princess Rongle saw the Empress sitting beside her couch in a very casual manner. "My sister, you misunderstood. Guanying is still a young man. I have been holding him for so long. It is time to let him go out for some fresh air. Yuanjun has been clamoring to see grandma a few days ago. It is almost time for her to wake up from her nap. I will trouble mother to take care of him for me for a while."

Princess Rong Le was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I was overthinking it, but I met Master Lin in Heyi Tower that day. He was very young, but very calm and intelligent, and he was also very polite. I wonder if he is married."

Princess Rong Le never concealed her love for beautiful women - this was indeed one of her few hobbies and she was not lying.

Princess Rong Le still habitually wanted to be tolerant of Empress Xie, whom she had once praised for her beauty and splendor, even though she saw through her slight alienation from her.

Xie Yuzhen smiled and said, "Not married yet, but the engagement has been arranged."

"Oh?" After getting this answer, Princess Rong Le did not argue any more. Instead, when Xie Yuzhen reached out to tuck in the corner of the quilt for her, she naturally stretched out one hand and gently shook it, "Don't worry about me getting cold, your majesty. I'm wearing thick clothes inside, but I'm a little hot under this."

"You are injured. If the evil wind enters your body, it will be no joke." Xie Yuzhen thought for a moment and decided to temporarily put aside his jealousy of these royal descendants who had been standing above him since birth. He seriously thought about how to win over this notorious princess who was hated by the emperor to his own camp.

However, Princess Rong Le felt that Xie Yuzhen's initial slight sense of alienation disappeared in an instant. Her every word, every action, and every gesture, flowing between her delicate eyebrows, was filled with the most natural and beautiful tenderness and kindness.

Such a beauty, but she is both my brother's sister-in-law and the queen!

Princess Rong Le couldn't help but feel a little regretful in her heart, so she used light words to tell the emperor's wife the interesting story that she had told the emperor before, and she patiently told it again from the beginning.

It is still interesting and fun.
