My elder sister forced me to change my marriage? I became the favorite in the harem by eating melons

"The lotus grows out of the mud, yet it is clean, holy and beautiful. In a polluted environment, it is still able to be pure and elegant, pure and clean without being coquettish. Wu Zhaoyi thinks that such a lotus is rare, isn't it?"

Yu Huan's words stumped Wu Qingying for a moment.

The beauty of blooming flowers, no matter who you are in this world, naturally you will not be willing to refuse or dislike such a beautiful and pretty thing, and she is no exception.

But when it comes to flower varieties, she only likes those that are luxurious and expensive, like peonies, which are elegant and noble.

On the contrary, something like the lotus...

She felt that it was too light, just like the white jasmine, and she didn't like it.

But when she heard Yu Huan ask this, she knew she couldn't spoil Yu Huan's interest, so she could only flatter him, "Yes... of course, it turns out that the Queen likes lotus."

"It just so happens that this season is the time when lotus flowers are in full bloom. There are so many lakes in the palace, and lotus flowers are blooming on almost every lake. However, the lotus blooming period is relatively short. If the queen likes it, she must appreciate it as soon as possible, otherwise, the lotus flowers will wither soon."

"Yes. No matter how pure and elegant something is, it will only last for a short time."

Wu Qingying: “…”

It seemed like she was talking to herself again, because she had no idea how to respond to Yu Huan's words.

In the end, I had no choice but to shut my mouth.

Originally, she believed that she still had some advantages over Yu Huan. She might not have other advantages, but she claimed that she knew something about the varieties of these flowers, and she knew a lot. In addition, she also came to see the new varieties of flowers in the Imperial Garden a few days ago.

I basically know everyone here, and the maids here also introduced those I didn't know to me.

She was just about to show off to Yu Huan the varieties of flowers she knew and introduce them in front of Yu Huan.

When she saw Yu Huan's hand touching a gorgeous flower in full bloom, she was delighted and opened her mouth, about to introduce...

"This two-color mandarin duck canna is rare."

Canna has both yellow and red flowers. These two varieties of flowers are very common, while the two-color Mandarin Duck Canna is very rare. This is also the variety of flowers that the Imperial Garden has just recently added.

Bicolor Canna. The last time she came, she stood here for a long time when she saw this Bicolor Canna. She felt that this Bicolor Canna looked very familiar, like Canna, but different from Canna, because all the Cannas she had seen were red and yellow. This was the first time she had seen these two colors put together in all these years.

It was only when the nanny in the Imperial Garden told her that this was the bicolor canna that she suddenly realized.

Unexpectedly——

Yu Huan actually recognized the name of this two-colored mandarin duck canna at a glance.

"I was planning to show off my knowledge of these flowers to the Queen, but I didn't expect that the Queen is knowledgeable and I am ignorant."

Hearing this, Yu Huan smiled slightly: "People can only show their talents in front of things they are good at. When I was at home, I also liked to grow flowers, and I know a little about the varieties of flowers. On the contrary, Wu Zhaoyi also has her own advantages. The Wu family is a powerful military family with a prominent status. I heard that Wu Zhaoyi was able to wield a sword and a gun when she was very young."

"In the entire Shangshu Mansion, my martial arts foundation is the worst. It is not worth mentioning."

Wu Qingying scratched her head embarrassedly. What she said was true.

Yu Huan just smiled and said, "There aren't many women in the capital who can wield a spear or a broadsword. This is your advantage, Wu Zhaoyi. There aren't many women like you in the capital."

"Okay, we've almost finished admiring the flowers, it's time to go back."

As he spoke, Yu Huan turned around and was about to leave.

When Wu Qingying saw Yu Huan turning around and leaving, she thought of something. She took a step forward with her arms open, blocking Yu Huan's way.

"Your Majesty, you have helped me a lot since I entered the palace. I am grateful to you. But as you just said about the lotus, no matter how beautiful the flower is, it will only bloom for a short time. Your Majesty, I don't want to be that person who blooms for a short time."

"I haven't been favored by the Emperor for many years. I even thought that I would never have the chance to be summoned and favored by the Emperor again in this life, just like those young and beautiful women in the harem, but as they grow older, they gradually grow old in the harem. I don't want to be that kind of person, and I am afraid of becoming that kind of person. If it weren't for the Empress's clever plan, I'm afraid the Emperor wouldn't even remember me now."

"The Queen——"

There was no one around, only a few servants from the Imperial Garden would pass by from time to time.

But Wu Qingying didn't care about these at all. She knelt down in front of Yu Huan with a plop. "I know I shouldn't doubt the Queen's intentions, and I shouldn't speculate on the Queen's intentions to be good to me. I really realized my mistake and know where I went wrong. I beg the Queen to be magnanimous and don't hold the same opinion with me. I really want to surrender to the Queen and serve her at her behest."

"Wu Zhaoyi, you are at least a third-rank Zhaoyi. If your crying appearance gets out, the whole harem will laugh at you."

In the past, Wu Qingying cared about these things, but compared with being favored by the emperor, these were nothing.

"Empress, please continue to give me good advice. Even if you are unwilling to give me good advice, I beg you to look at my sincere admission of faults and tell me what I should do today so that the Emperor will continue to stay in Ruyi Palace instead of going to Weiyang Palace."

Wu Qingying knew very well that even if the emperor stayed in her Ruyi Palace several times in a row, any disturbance in Weiyang Palace would attract the emperor's attention.

She had just heard that the bitch Xia Wanning was sick again...

Damn bitch, she never gets sick sooner or later. She has been in the palace for so many years and I have never seen her get sick once.

This time, she had just ordered the closure of the gates of Weiyang Palace, but then she saw that the emperor was unmoved and stayed in her Ruyi Palace again, and even called for water twice at night. The bitch Xia Wanning couldn't hold back so quickly and started to think of crooked ideas to seduce the emperor!

Wu Qingying knew that once the emperor went to Weiyang Palace, her favor in Ruyi Palace would be completely over!

Wu Qingying had just tasted the sweetness for a few days, but she didn't expect that her sweetness would be just like the lotus, short-lived.

What she wants is the grace that never fades!
