Xia Dongchun from Legend of Zhen Huan: I want to live till the last episode
Chapter 28 Plum Tree
In the past few days, Xia Dongchun has been sleeping with me more often.
After all, among the new ladies who entered the palace, Concubine Wan has been ill, Concubine An has always been in poor health and has not yet served the emperor in bed, Concubine Fucha is also ill, Concubine Chun is young, and Concubine Borjigit has not yet seen the emperor.
Aren’t there only Shen Meizhuang and Xia Dongchun left?
But this is both a good thing and a bad thing for Xia Dongchun.
After all, before, Hua Fei had targeted Shen Meizhuang and Noble Lady Fucha, but now it might be her and Shen Meizhuang who were being targeted.
But one cannot survive in this palace without favor, and even if she is not favored now, Concubine Hua will probably not let her go.
After all, based on the situation in her previous life, the dispute between her and An Lingrong on the day of the palace selection might have already left a thorn in Concubine Hua's heart.
After all, Concubine Hua is such an arrogant and ostentatious person. How could she tolerate the appearance of someone with the same personality as her?
It would have been fine if she hadn't been selected, as she would have had nothing to do with Concubine Hua, but she was selected.
"My lady, look, the emperor knows that you love plum blossoms, so he specially had two trees transplanted here from the Yime Garden." Qi Ling said with a smile, pointing to the plum trees outside.
Speaking of which, Xia Dongchun's love for plum blossoms is also related to her mother.
Xia Dongchun's mother always has a scent of plum blossoms on her body. When she was a child, she followed her mother and felt at ease as long as she smelled the scent.
So when she grew up, she also fell in love with plum blossoms.
When Yinzhen found out about this, he praised her for her good vision and specially ordered people to move two plum trees from the Yime Garden and plant them in the yard.
The plum blossoms were in full bloom these past two days, and Xia Dongchun was happy to see them, but Noble Fucha and An Lingrong, who lived with her, were not so happy.
An Lingrong is fine. She has not yet served the emperor in the emperor's bed. She just hopes to keep a low profile and not offend anyone again.
But Noble Lady Fucha was really unhappy.
Under the care of the imperial physician these past few days, Noble Lady Fucha's illness has almost recovered.
But when she drew aside the curtain, she saw two plum trees, the symbol of grace.
I was so angry that I didn't even want to go out.
Fortunately, there was good news. After lunch, Noble Lady Fucha was about to go talk to Concubine Qi, but she heard Xiao Xiazi coming outside.
After the announcement, Xiao Xiazi came in and bowed, saying, "Your servant greets the young lady. The emperor has ordered that I come to the Yanxi Palace to accompany you tonight. Please prepare early."
Noble Lady Fucha was pleasantly surprised. She hadn't seen the emperor since she fell ill, and it had been seven or eight days. She was naturally happy that the emperor came to accompany her tonight. It was also a good opportunity to dampen Xia Dongchun's arrogance.
"I see. Thank you, eunuch." Noble Lady Fucha said with a smile, "Ju'er, see the eunuch off."
After sending Xiao Xiazi away, Noble Lady Fucha raised her eyebrows and said, "Look, Xia Dongchun has been favored these past two days, but she only took advantage of my illness and inability to sleep with me. Now that I am well, there is nothing for Xia Dongchun to do."
Sang'er also tried to cheer her up: "Young lady is right. Look, you have just recovered from your illness, and the emperor will come to accompany you. By then, Concubine Xia will only be jealous."
"What's the big deal about transplanting two plum trees for her?" Noble Lady Fucha sneered, "What do we need? Do we still need those two trees?"
"That's right." Sang'er was wearing clothes made of the material sent by Xia Dongchun. She smiled and said, "My lady, I will go out for a walk and let Xia Changzai see it. We don't need or want the things she has."
"By the way, my lady, it will be New Year's Eve in two days. My lady plays the guzheng very well. Would you like to perform a song for the emperor then?" Sang'er asked.
Noble Lady Fucha raised her chin and said proudly, "Of course."
The plum blossoms are in full bloom these two days. Xia Dongchun can see the blooming plum blossoms when he opens the window. New Year's Eve is coming soon. The palace is full of joy and everyone is looking forward to the New Year.
It was cold today, so Xia Dongchun called Yunling, Qiling, and the eunuch Xiao Yuezi to play Pai Gow together in the room. The room was warm, and the four masters and servants were very happy.
"But we've already agreed that none of you can give in to me." The room was warm, Xia Dongchun's face was rosy and he was full of energy. "I will definitely beat you."
"Yes, the young master is very good at playing Pai Gow. We couldn't beat her at home." Yun Ling nodded in agreement. She didn't know if it was because Xia Dongchun was slow in doing business, but she was very smart and quick to react when it came to having fun.
"You all have to be careful. New Year's Eve is coming soon. Don't let me win all your money." Xia Dongchun has been in a good mood these two days. In the past two days, she even gave extra rewards to the palace maids and eunuchs in her room.
Xiao Yuezi chuckled and said, "My lord, I am also very good at playing Pai Gow."
Qi Ling also smiled, with two dimples on her round face, and her cheeks were red. "Then I'm going to lose miserably. I'm not good at playing Pai Gow. I lost a lot when I played with Xiao Yuezi and the others before."
"It's okay, as long as we have fun." Xia Dongchun said, "After all, I will give you some money on New Year's Eve."
Xia Dongchun's mother's family also gave her some money as an allowance, for they were afraid that she would be troubled by the eunuchs and palace maids in the palace because of insufficient silver and low rewards.
Even though eunuchs and palace maids are all servants, as the saying goes, it is easy to see the King of Hell, but hard to deal with the devil. These palace maids and eunuchs have been in the palace for quite a while, and if they really want to make things difficult for someone, they have plenty of ways to do it.
"Hey!" After hearing this, Qi Ling no longer worried about losing all her money. She was now extremely grateful that she followed a good master. "Thank you, my lady."
Before she was assigned here, the palace maids and eunuchs with her laughed at her because everyone had heard about what happened on the day of the palace selection. Therefore, they all thought that she was assigned to the uterus of a mistress with a very bad temper and would definitely be scolded every three or two days in the future.
Who would have thought that after she followed Xia Dongchun, not only was she not scolded, but Xia Dongchun was very kind to them, the servants, and would not scold them without reason, and would even give them rewards from time to time.
The eunuchs and palace maids who had laughed at her before now envied her.
