The crabapple tree is fragrant in the tent, and the bright moon is in my arms

She threw the white silkworm fan made of the finest fabric onto the ground. Not feeling satisfied, she picked up the teacup and threw it out as well. She looked nothing like her usual elegant self.

Cai Yue knelt down tremblingly: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother is gone, you are the most important person in the palace, I think this is the reason why His Majesty wants to keep you."

But Concubine Gao couldn't listen to any of this. She had experienced too much jealousy recently, and this feeling made her extremely sick. She sneered coldly: "That day, Your Majesty left me and went to Yaohua Garden. It was so lively, and everyone was so resourceful. Has Your Majesty forgotten that bitch pushed me into the water!"

Her expression at the moment could be described as terrifying and gloomy. Caiyue, who had never seen her master like this, swallowed her saliva and dared not utter a word.

"And the queen is really old. She is always thinking about the silver when managing the harem. Even my coal has been withheld."

Nothing went her way.

Concubine Gao clenched the corner of the table with her hands, and blue veins appeared on the back of her white hands. She smiled softly and became her usual self again: "Caiyue, get up."

Caiyue's eyelids twitched, and she looked a little uneasy at her.

-

The castle in the air that Zhao Yue wanted was finally built. He Quan found some seeds and sprinkled them on the red pillars. She touched them curiously and asked, "What is this?"

"Climbing grass is a worthless weed outside the palace. When the flowers bloom in spring, they can entwine around the pillars of the pavilion. They have strong vitality and will climb up to the eaves, which can provide shade for the young lady." He Quan explained.

Zhao Yue nodded.

After He Quan finished, he looked at her. She had been playing with flowers in the yard just now. She didn't even notice that petals had fallen on her hair and was still eating sweet cakes foolishly.

He washed his hands, a smile leaked from his lips, and he walked to her and took the plate away directly: "We will have lunch soon, my lady, please use less sweets."

"Give it back to me! Give it back to me! He Quan!"

Zhaoyue was so angry that her teeth were itching. This was sent by Concubine Fang. It was obviously Qin Yi's cooking. She hadn't eaten her cooking for a long time, so she was naturally very greedy.

The pastry was fragrant and not greasy, slightly sweet and soft. She couldn't resist and ate several pieces. Paired with the milk tea that Taoxi made for her, she felt as happy as a god.

She reached out from her chair to grab the plate in He Quan's hand, but he raised it casually, and Zhao Yue couldn't get it no matter what.

Seeing He Quan's eyes looking at the milk tea, she hurried to get it, but was still not as fast as him.

Zhao Yue looked at the milk tea and cakes in his hands with eager eyes. She pouted and her angry face instantly collapsed. She spread her hands and collapsed on the couch like a puddle of mud: "As a young lady, you can't even eat. God, please judge for yourself."

She looked so cute. He Quan coughed lightly and put the things on the table next to him. He leaned over and approached her suddenly: "What are you talking about, huh?"

Zhao Yue was startled by a handsome face that suddenly approached. She was so stunned that she forgot what to say. When she saw him raise his hand, she clenched her palm suddenly, her heart pounding, and she closed her eyes.

As a result, her head was gently stroked, and she heard He Quan's teasing voice: "Flowers have fallen on your head, and I have overstepped my authority."

"Why did you close your eyes, young master?"

"Cough, cough, cough..." Zhao Yue opened her eyes and started coughing violently. She picked up the teacup beside her and brought it to her mouth, but there was no water. She had to put it down awkwardly, stood up and smiled stiffly: "Today's weather is really good."

She wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it. She couldn't say that she closed her eyes just now because she thought He Quan wanted... her!

I was relieved and fortunately he didn't catch up with me to ask.

Qiu Ju came in from the door with a broom: "My lady, I just found something."

Zhaoyue took it. It was a pair of long exquisite pearl earrings that only the ladies in the palace could afford. Besides, Ningzhu Pavilion was remote, so it was impossible for such an object to appear for no reason.

"Did you see it at the door?"

Qiu Ju shook her head and said honestly, "I thought that if I swept the door, the leaves from other places would come back if the wind blew them, so I just swept the entire palace road. This earring... was found on the road near the Pillow Book Tower."

Pillow Book Tower.

Zhaoyue's face changed. Ning Ruxin?

She hummed, "Maybe it was accidentally dropped when Concubine Fang came. Let's keep it first. Thank you for your hard work, Qiuju. You can go down first."

"Yes, my lord."

He Quan came over and asked, "What's wrong?"

Zhao Yue handed him the earrings: "Whose earrings do you think they are?"

"When your majesty leaves the palace during Qiu Qi's trip, the Imperial Guards will follow you, and you can leave half of them in the harem with the Imperial Guards."

"It seems that I underestimated her courage. She is really fearless."

Zhao Yue sneered: "You keep it and put it together with the jade pendant."

He Quan's eyes were full of understanding, and he lowered his voice: "Actually... I hope that the young lady can stay in the palace during this trip."

"Why?" Zhao Yue looked at his face: "Did you... make any moves?"

"My lady, why do you ask me like that? What can a servant do?" He curled his lips and said, "I just think that your majesty has only been on the throne for a short time. If there are any unusual moves after leaving the palace, what will happen if my lady is implicated?"

"You already said that the Yulin Guards would follow us. There's nothing to be afraid of." Zhao Yue yawned, "I'm a little hungry."

"Taoxi has just finished making it." Seeing Zhaoyue sneaking towards the plate of cakes, He Quan quickly grabbed her collar and said, "After eating, you won't be greedy anymore."

……

Damn dog eunuch!

Zhao Yue waved his fist towards the air.

They will set off early tomorrow morning. After Taoxi takes care of Zhaoyue's nap, she and Qiuju pack her luggage.

At night, the pavilion was drafty on all sides and it felt cold when sitting on it. He Quan found a screen to surround the bed and lit a charcoal brazier in the middle.

When Zhao Yue came up, she was very surprised: "It's so warm."

She took off her cloak and sat on the bed. "Is this a redwood bed? Did you get it from the Ministry of Internal Affairs?"

It was just a casual question. Others might not know He Quan's abilities, but she knew it. He could come and go freely in the palace, so isn't it easy for him to get a bed?

"The slave did it himself."

Zhao Yue paused, and looked at him carefully again. Seeing that his face was firm and he didn't look like he was joking, he asked, "You, you did it?"

He touched the round head of the bed with his fingers and said, "Little Quanzi, you are really good at both literature and martial arts, and you can do everything. It's really unfair for you to be the chief eunuch in my palace!"

He Quan raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Then according to what you said, what is the right thing for me to do?"

"Of course it is..." Zhao Yue suddenly stopped and swallowed the words of the powerful Ninth Thousand Years Old in his throat. His eyes curved into a crescent: "Of course it's the cook, carpenter, and doctor. You are proficient in everything. You will never starve to death no matter where you go!"

"Thank you for your kind words, young master."

"Why did my charcoal get changed?" Zhao Yue noticed the smokeless charcoal basin and asked in confusion.

There were footsteps on the stairs, and then Zhu Dingyuan's voice came: "Yue'er, are you resting?"
