Ah, you traveled through time too?
Chapter 274 Small Gift
After Lian Di gave the small gifts she had carefully made to the concubines in the palace, she felt a little more relaxed. She knew that through these gifts, she could express her friendliness and goodwill, hoping to establish some harmonious relationships in the harem.
However, the turmoil in the palace did not subside. Concubine Chun was in Chaolu Palace, feeling more and more anxious and uneasy. She had been waiting for Li Yong to come, wanting to ask him about some important matters, but Li Yong did not show up.
Concubine Chun was wandering outside the palace, her eyes constantly scanning the direction of the palace gate, her face showing obvious anxiety and urgency. Her personal maid Xiaoju saw that the queen was so uneasy, and hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her: "Queen, don't be too anxious, the emperor may be busy with government affairs, and he will come soon."
Concubine Chun frowned slightly, with a trace of worry in her eyes: "Xiaoju, the emperor has obviously paid less attention to me recently. I am worried that his attention will be divided by other concubines."
Xiaoju whispered to comfort him, "Your Highness, you are the emperor's favorite concubine. The emperor will definitely value you. Perhaps the emperor is just temporarily entangled in government affairs. Your Highness, please be patient."
Concubine Chun sighed, her eyes still full of worry: "I know, but I still can't help but worry. Especially Lian Di, her performance in the palace has been getting better and better recently, I'm worried that she will threaten my position."
Xiaoju nodded to show her understanding: "Your Highness, you are the favorite concubine in the harem, and your status is unmatched. As long as you remain calm, the emperor will understand your intentions."
As the two were talking, footsteps were heard in the distance. Concubine Chun turned around and saw Li Yong, accompanied by guards and Su Changde, walking towards Chaolu Palace.
"The emperor is here!" Xiaoju said in a low voice.
Concubine Chun immediately straightened her clothes and walked forward quickly, with a forced smile on her face: "Your Majesty, you are finally here."
Li Yong saw Concubine Chun and smiled: "Concubine Chun, what do you want to talk to me about?"
Concubine Chun stepped forward and took Li Yong's hand, and said softly: "Your Majesty, I have something important to ask you, please move to the inner hall."
Li Yong nodded slightly, turned around and entered the inner hall with Concubine Chun. After Concubine Chun ordered the maids to leave, she said, "Your Majesty, there have been some rumors in the harem recently, and I feel very uneasy."
Li Yong frowned and asked, "What rumors?"
Concubine Chun whispered, "Your Majesty, there are rumors in the palace recently that you have paid less attention to me, probably because the new concubine Lian Di has gained favor. I am worried that these rumors will affect your mood, and I am also worried that my position in the harem will be threatened."
Li Yong was slightly stunned, then smiled and said: "Noble Concubine Chun, don't believe these rumors. My feelings for you remain the same as always. As for Lian Di, she is just one of my concubines. My favor for her will not affect you."
Concubine Chun breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt uneasy: "Your Majesty, I know your feelings for me, but the rumors in the harem really make me feel uneasy. I just hope to get more care and attention from you."
Li Yong gently held Concubine Chun's hand and said softly, "Concubine Chun, you are the apple of my eye. How could I not care about you? You don't have to worry about these rumors. I will take care of the affairs of the harem."
Concubine Chun felt Li Yong's tenderness and concern, and felt a little relieved: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I am just worried that these rumors will affect our relationship."
Li Yong nodded and said firmly: "Don't worry, I will handle these matters and won't let you suffer any injustice."
Concubine Chun snuggled in Li Yong's arms, feeling his warmth and firmness, and her heart finally settled a little.
At dinner time, Li Yong enjoyed dinner with Concubine Chun and Princess Ninghe. Seeing that her father and mother were getting along well, Princess Ninghe smiled happily. She held Li Yong's hand and said innocently, "Father, you and mother should always get along well. Both my mother and I need you."
Li Yong smiled at Princess Ninghe and said gently, "Ninghe, father will always take care of you and mother. You are the most important people to father."
Seeing her daughter so attached to her father, Concubine Chun felt warm in her heart. She smiled and said, "Ninghe, you are such a sensible child. Your Majesty, thanks to Ninghe, I feel a little comforted."
Li Yong nodded, his eyes full of tenderness: "Ning He is indeed a good child, and I am also very pleased."
After dinner, Li Yong accompanied Concubine Chun and Princess Ning He for a walk in the garden. Concubine Chun held Li Yong's hand and gradually calmed down. She knew that Li Yong's concern for her was real and she should not be bothered by those rumors.
"Your Majesty, I was really happy playing in the garden with Ninghe today." Concubine Chun said with a smile.
Li Yong patted her hand gently and said softly: "Noble Concubine Chun, you must take good care of yourself and don't let these little things affect your mood. I will always be by your side."
Concubine Chun nodded, with a hint of determination in her eyes: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will rest well and won't worry you."
As the night deepened, Li Yong accompanied Concubine Chun and Princess Ninghe back to Chaolu Palace. Concubine Chun saw Li Yong was leaving and reluctantly said, "Your Majesty, please stay with us today. I am really happy."
Li Yong smiled and said gently, "I know. I will try my best to spend more time with you."
Concubine Chun nodded gratefully and watched Li Yong leave, feeling warm in her heart. She knew that she had to remain calm and composed in order to cope with the various challenges in the harem.
After returning to Guangqing Palace, Lian Di continued to practice embroidery. She knew that the power struggle in the harem never stopped, but she believed that as long as she worked hard, every detail could be done to the best.
One day, Lian Di suddenly had a new idea while embroidering. She decided to make some small gifts and give them to other concubines in the palace to express her feelings. She believed that through these small gifts, she could enhance the relationship with other concubines and reduce unnecessary hostility and conflict.
Lian Di told Dong Chun and Dong Qing about her idea. They both expressed their support and were willing to help her make the gifts.
"Your Majesty, this is a good idea. Through these gifts, you can express your friendship to other concubines and also show off your embroidery skills." Dongchun said with a smile.
Dong Qing also nodded and said, "My queen, if we work together, we will definitely be able to make a beautiful gift."
In the following days, Lian Di, Dong Chun and Dong Qing worked together to make these small gifts. They carefully selected materials and designed them with great care. Each gift was filled with Lian Di's thoughts and blessings.
When these small gifts were completed, Lian Di sent them to the concubines in the palace one by one. Although they had their own thoughts, they all had to admit that Lian Di's gifts were indeed exquisite and full of heart.
One time, Lian Di was handling affairs in Guangqing Palace when she suddenly received an invitation from Concubine Xian to go to her palace. Although Lian Di felt a little uneasy, she knew that Concubine Xian’s invitation should not be taken lightly. She tidied her clothes and took Dong Qing to Concubine Xian’s palace.
