Chapter 219 Worry
After reading the evidence presented by Lian Di, Li Yong's expression became very serious. His trust in Lian Di increased a lot, but his doubts still existed. In order to ease the atmosphere, Li Yong decided to invite Lian Di to dinner.
"Lian Di, please have dinner with me tonight. I also want to relax." Li Yong said with a smile.
Lian Di felt warm in her heart and smiled brightly: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I am willing to have dinner with you."
The two of them came to the dining hall, where the table was already filled with carefully prepared delicacies. After Lian Di sat down, she was delighted to see the delicious food in front of her, and her face was full of smiles.
"Your Majesty, today's dishes look particularly tempting. I can't wait." Lian Di said mischievously, with joy shining in her eyes.
Seeing Lian Di so happy, Li Yong felt much more relaxed. He smiled and said, "Then don't be restrained, just enjoy it."
Lian Di nodded and began to taste the food in front of her. She picked up a piece of braised pork, put it in her mouth, chewed it carefully, and showed a satisfied look on her face. She couldn't help but praise: "Your Majesty, this braised pork is really delicious, you should try it too."
As she spoke, Lian Di personally picked up a piece of braised pork and handed it to Li Yong's bowl. Li Yong saw this and smiled slightly. He took the dish handed over by Lian Di, put it in his mouth, and agreed: "It's really good. It seems that the chef tonight has made a great contribution."
Su Changde stood aside and saw Lian Di picking food for the emperor so naturally, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried. He knew the complexity and danger in the harem, and although Lian Di's action seemed normal, it might cause dissatisfaction among other concubines, especially Concubine Chun Rong.
Lian Di continued to enjoy the food, picking up dishes for Li Yong from time to time. The interaction between the two seemed intimate and natural. Li Yong was in a good mood, gradually forgetting the troubles in the court and the struggles in the harem, and focusing on the food in front of him and Lian Di's company.
"Lian Di, you are really my lucky star. With you by my side, I feel that all my worries have disappeared." Li Yong said with emotion.
Lian Di smiled and responded gently: "Your Majesty, I am also very happy. It is my honor to be by your side."
The dinner went very happily. Lian Di's smile infected Li Yong, making him forget all his worries temporarily. Although Su Changde was a little worried, he didn't dare to say anything more when he saw the emperor was so happy.
After the meal, Li Yong and Lian Di walked in the Imperial Garden, enjoying the quietness of the night. Lian Di snuggled up to Li Yong and whispered, "Your Majesty, today is such a pleasant night. I hope there will be more times like this."
Li Yong nodded and gently held Lian Di's hand: "I think so too. I feel at ease with you by my side."
However, all this did not escape the eyes of Concubine Chun Rong. She learned from her confidant that Li Yong and Lian Di had dinner together and that the two interacted intimately, and the fire of jealousy burned in her heart. She knew that she had to take more radical actions to regain Li Yong's favor.
A few days later, Chunrong arranged a private time with Li Yong, carefully prepared a sumptuous dinner, and invited Li Yong to come. Li Yong gladly accepted, and the two had dinner together in a warm atmosphere.
During the meal, Chunrong continued to show her kindness and gentleness, which made Li Yong feel her care and concern. Li Yong's affection for her gradually increased, and his suspicion gradually diminished.
After dinner, Chunrong snuggled in Li Yong's arms and said softly, "Your Majesty, I just hope you can focus on handling state affairs. Leave the affairs of the harem to me, you don't have to worry."
Li Yong nodded: "With you here, I do feel at ease. You should also take care of yourself."
Chunrong smiled slightly, feeling secretly proud. She knew that as long as she continued to maintain this gentle and considerate image, Li Yong's favor towards her would not diminish. And as long as she had the emperor's favor, she would have the opportunity to conceive a dragon seed and secure her position.
However, Chunrong knew that this was far from enough. She had to continue to attack Lian Di to ensure her absolute advantage in the harem. She decided to increase her surveillance of Lian Di and at the same time look for opportunities to create Lian Di's "mistakes" to make Li Yong dissatisfied with Lian Di.
One day, Chunrong heard a piece of news that Lian Di was planning a charity event to raise funds for the poor people in the palace. Chunrong decided to use this opportunity to fight back.
She secretly arranged some trusted palace maids to create chaos on the day of the event, making Lian Di's event chaotic. At the same time, she also prepared some "evidence" in case of emergency.
A few days later, Lian Di brought the evidence she had collected to the imperial study to see Li Yong. After she bowed, she whispered, "Your Majesty, I have something important to report to you."
Li Yong raised his head and glanced at Lian Di with a sidelong look of reproach in his eyes. He asked in a cold tone, "What's the matter?"
Lian Di felt uneasy, but she still mustered up the courage to present the evidence in her hand: "Your Majesty, these are some evidences that I have found recently, please take a look."
Li Yong took the evidence and flipped through a few pages at random, frowning more and more. He put down the evidence and said coldly, "Lian Di, I have always hoped for harmony in the harem, but you keep creating trouble. Do you know that you are wrong?"
