Traveling through time and space to become a concubine: I just want to live a leisurely life

King Xuan first calmed himself down, then raised his voice and said to the person outside the door, "Go find Chuwu."

"Yes, Your Majesty." A response came from the door.

Chuwu was in charge of managing secret agents and collecting intelligence. From the looks of it, Concubine Su was going to be in trouble this time.

Chuba and Chujiu were standing outside the door and had already heard the conversation inside the house.

So before leaving, the eighth day of the first lunar month gave the ninth day of the first lunar month a look that said "May all your luck be to you".

Chujiu secretly complained in his heart and sighed helplessly. Who made me learn the skills poorly?

Now he could only bite the bullet and walk into the room, kneeling before King Xuan to plead guilty: "Please punish me, Your Majesty."

Shen Jingyi looked at Chujiu who was kneeling on the ground, and tried to plead, "Your Highness, everyone has their own expertise, and this matter cannot be completely blamed on Chujiu."

Chujiu on the ground was so moved after hearing Shen Jingyi's words that she shouted in her heart, "Yes, Your Majesty, this cannot be entirely blamed on me. You can only blame your woman for being too cunning."

But he never dared to say this. He only dared to mutter a few words in his heart, and dared not reveal it on his face.

When King Xuan saw Shen Jingyi pleading for Chujiu, he felt that he should give her some face, so he slowly said, "When Chujiu arrives, you two should cooperate well and investigate the matter thoroughly before you go to receive the punishment."

Chujiu thought he could get away with it, but he never expected that he could not escape punishment in the end.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Chujiu stood up, picked up the pile of bird's nests, and retreated angrily.

Nanny Qin and Qiuju looked at each other, then followed Chujiu out of the room with a tactful look.

King Xuan pulled Shen Jingyi to sit beside him and let her lean on his arms.

He gently stroked Shen Jingyi's hair and said softly, "Don't worry, Yi'er, I will investigate this matter thoroughly and will never let go of anyone who wants to hurt you!"

Shen Jingyi nodded slightly and leaned tenderly on King Xuan's chest, like a well-behaved kitten.

She felt that since the boss had said so, she should also express her opinion, so she raised her head, looked at King Xuan with her autumn water eyes and said: "I believe in you, Your Majesty."

The two of them snuggled together quietly, enjoying a moment of peace and warmth.

After a while, King Xuan gently kissed Shen Jingyi's forehead, then helped her stand up.

The two walked hand in hand towards the dormitory, ready to wash up and rest.

Entering the washroom, King Xuan personally took off Shen Jingyi's outer clothes, and Shen Jingyi turned away shyly.

The two fooled around inside for a while, and when they were done, King Xuan carried Shen Jingyi to the bed and held her in his arms again...

Early the next morning, the sunlight shone through the window onto Shen Jingyi's face. She slowly opened her eyes and felt extremely sore all over.

When he turned around, King Xuan had disappeared.

Recalling the close contact with King Xuan during these days, Shen Jingyi couldn't help but sigh that King Xuan was in really good health and she could hardly bear it anymore.

After lying in bed for a while, Shen Jingyi slowly got up. With Chuntao's help, she took a comfortable bath and felt much more relaxed.

After breakfast, Shen Jingyi exchanged for okra.

"Who is in charge of the inner courtyard now?" Shen Jingyi asked softly.

"My princess, it's Steward Xue from the outer courtyard. He was originally in charge of the outer courtyard affairs, but yesterday the prince handed all the affairs of the inner courtyard over to him." Qiu Kui answered respectfully.

It seems that the princess’s house arrest will not last too long.

After all, she is the principal wife after all, and there is also Xiao Zihong between them, so King Xuan will at least give her some face.

"Concubine, I have one more thing to say. Yesterday, a group of servants were sold in the mansion, including the two cooks, Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Xia, from the main kitchen. Today, a new group of people were added."

Shen Jingyi knew what she meant as soon as she heard it, and said to Chuntao with a smile: "Give Qiu Kui a hundred taels of silver."

Chuntao took the order and left. After a while, she handed one hundred taels of silver to Qiu Kui.

"You know what to do?"

Shen Jingyi smiled as she looked at Qiu Kui's eager eyes.

"I know"

"Then go ahead. Be careful. If you don't have enough money, ask Chuntao for help. If you have any questions, ask Madam Qin for help."

Shen Jingyi waved her hand, signaling Qiu Kui to leave.

"Yes"

Qiu Kui smiled, bowed, and turned around briskly to do his work.

Shen Jingyi was secretly calculating in her heart how many people they could place in the palace due to the personnel changes.

......

In the following days, the palace was reorganized again, and it was said that a new group of servants were replaced.

King Xuan has not come here in the past few days. I heard that he went to the Princess and Concubine Su's place, but he did not stay overnight. I don't know if he went to ask about the poisoning.

Later, I heard that he went to the two concubines and two concubines.

Each of the four of them stayed overnight.

It seems that King Xuan really treated everyone equally.

Well, I'm quite busy. I just rely on my good health now.

After all, only if you are in good health can you have the energy to deal with so many wives and concubines.

Perhaps this is what it's like for a prince who grew up in a palace. Even if he really has someone he loves in his heart, he cannot show it too obviously.

This is a protection for both parties.

Shen Jingyi has been very free during this period. She often goes to Shuiyue Cave to read books, practice calligraphy, and feed fish.

In my spare time, I made a few kites according to what was written in the book. After failing many times, I finally succeeded a few.

Occasionally, I would cook something delicious in my own yard.

If the food tastes good, I will send a portion to the front yard.

After breakfast today, Shen Jingyi stretched and felt the breeze. The weather was just right, so she planned to go to the back garden to enjoy the flowers.

So he called up Nanny Qin, Chun, Xia, two Qius and two Dongs, six maids, and asked them to prepare tea, snacks and the books he wanted to read. Then they walked towards the back garden in a mighty procession.

Along the way, everyone was talking and laughing, it was very lively.

Shen Jingyi looked at the joyful atmosphere and felt more cheerful.

When they arrived at the back garden, Shen Jingyi did not confine them to her side, but let them move freely with a smile, and play and enjoy the scenery.

In the end, Nanny Qin was the only one left by her side.

Shen Jingyi strolled among the flowers, looking at the scene of the flowers blooming in profusion, competing for splendor, and the fragrance of the spring breeze filling the garden. She couldn't help chanting: "The spring breeze blows on my face and the flowers bloom, the flowers are like brocade reflecting the clear sky, and the bees and butterflies dance with laughter, enjoying the prosperity together."

Nanny Qin listened and responded with a smile: "The concubine is really talented in writing!"

Shen Jingyi smiled and said, "I didn't do this." Then she continued walking forward.

As they walked, they came to a small pavilion and stopped. Shen Jingyi looked around and saw that the flowers around her were in full bloom. A breeze blew by, bringing bursts of floral fragrance, which was refreshing.

She took a deep breath, closed her eyes in ecstasy, a satisfied smile on her lips.

"Mammy, let's have lunch here today!"

Nanny Qin looked at the pavilion surrounded by flowers and her master who was more beautiful than flowers. She couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, let's put our lunch here today."
