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

The poisonous food was removed and someone asked someone to serve a new meal on the table.

Qiu Ju naturally went forward to check it out first.

After confirming that everything was fine, the two of them went to the table to eat.

Shen Jingyi looked at the table full of exquisite food.

Suddenly I felt very hungry, and everything looked delicious.

So I tried every dish first.

When he ate something delicious, he would pick up some with chopsticks for King Xuan. His little face was bulging with food, like a hamster.

King Xuan had lost his appetite.

However, seeing how relishing Shen Jingyi's meal was, I couldn't help but eat one more bowl as well.

After the meal, Shen Jingyi rubbed her stomach and felt a little bloated.

When King Xuan saw this, he raised his eyebrows and laughed.

"You're such a grown-up, why are you still eating so much? Are you afraid that I'll starve you?"

Shen Jingyi felt a little embarrassed and her face turned red.

But she still argued: "I was hungry, so I ate faster.

And then before my stomach knows it, it's full."

"Hahaha, that's a really interesting statement."

His concubine is also interesting.

You want to say he is brave, but he doesn't look like it.

If you say she is thick-skinned, she blushes easily.

"Let's go, I'll take you out to digest the food."

King Xuan stood up and walked out slowly holding Shen Jingyi's hand.

"Where are we going?"

She was not very willing to go out. It was noon and it would be too hot to go out.

"Don't you want to find a book? I'll take you there now."

When Shen Jingyi heard that they were going to the study, she didn't feel hot anymore.

He was happily led away.

A large group of maids and servants followed immediately.

Shen Jingyi doesn't like crowds.

So only Xia Zhu and Dong Mei were called, and the others went back.

After I came out, I realized that it wasn’t hot outside.

There are corridors and trees wherever you walk, and the breeze is very comfortable.

The two walked and chatted.

"Your Majesty, can I apply for a small kitchen?

I have two very good cooks, and Qiuju's medicinal food is also very good." Shen Jingyi said cautiously.

King Xuan glanced at her and thought she was frightened today.

"You can ask Chuba to arrange it for you later."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

When Shen Jingyi heard that the prince agreed, she was very happy. It was a blessing in disguise.

Xia Zhu and Dong Mei, who were following behind, looked at each other and their faces were full of joy.

"Hey, Your Highness, your little Si's names are from the first day to the ninth day. It's very convenient to remember them."

After hearing this, King Xuan turned around and tapped Shen Jingyi's nose. "Naughty!"

But he still replied, "Yes, I was still young when they came to me, so I thought it was convenient."

“It’s quite convenient and easy to remember.”

"Yier, will your cousin take part in the imperial examination this year?"

"Yes, before I entered the mansion, my aunt came to add dowry and said that this year my cousin would have a bad ending."

Her grandfather was the president of Jiangnan Lishan Academy.

His students are all over the world, and he has made many friends.

He has contacts with prominent families, chivalrous knights, and all kinds of people.

My grandfather had only one son and one daughter.

The daughter was deceived by the original father, but she did not know how to cherish her.

My son is now managing the academy.

He has two grandsons who are also very talented, one in literature and the other in martial arts.

The original body has an elder brother who is now working in the Hanlin Academy to gain experience.

All in all, the whole family has good genes.

"Well, then when he comes, I will go to meet him."

As they talked, they came to a quiet and beautiful courtyard.

It is called "Shuiyuedongtian".

The courtyard is surrounded by a high wall.

Moss climbed up the walls, adding signs of age.

Passing through the arched gate, what comes into view is an exquisite garden with various flowers competing for beauty and emitting bursts of fragrance.

There is a clear pond in the center of the garden, and the water surface reflects the blue sky and white clouds like a mirror.

The lotus flowers in the pond are in full bloom, the lotus leaves sway gently in the wind, and occasionally a fish jumps out of the water, breaking the tranquility of the mirror.

There is a small pavilion beside the pond, with a stone table and several stone chairs in the pavilion for people to rest.

Along the gravel path through the garden is a quaint little building.

There are several stone steps in front of the building, with a few green bamboos planted on both sides of the steps. When the breeze blows, the bamboo leaves rustle.

The windows of the small building were open, and the sunlight shone on the wooden floor, causing light and shadows to sway.

Walking into the small building, you will find it elegantly decorated, with bookshelves filled with books and a few paintings and calligraphy hanging on the walls, adding a touch of literary atmosphere.

The courtyard of "Shuiyuedongtian" is like a paradise, allowing people to get away from the hustle and bustle and immerse themselves in the beauty of nature.

"It's so beautiful here, a great place to read." Shen Jingyi said as he looked around.

"This is my private place, no one usually comes here.

You can come on your own if you like. I'll tell the gatekeeper when we leave."

"Really? That's great, I love it here.

Can we fish here?"

"Oh? I didn't expect you like fishing?"

He looked at her in surprise.

"Yes, I see there are a lot of fish in the pond!" she said excitedly, pointing at the pond.

However, King Xuan refused mercilessly: "No, the fish raised here are not for eating."

Then, as if he remembered something, he added: "But if you really like fishing,

I know a perfect place.

I can take you there to play later."

"Yeah!"

At this time, a young man came in and saluted, saying, "Your Majesty, there is a discovery over there, Chujiu, please go over there."

"understood."

Then he turned to Shen Jingyi and said, "Find the book yourself. I'll go take a look first."

"Yes, I send you off, Your Majesty."

After King Xuan left, Shen Jingyi felt more at ease.

Look here, touch there.

I haven't read many of the books here.

There are many interesting things.

I even found a biography of Queen Han.

This legendary founding queen is her fellow villager.

He is a great man who knows everything.

He even single-handedly cut off the path to wealth for all time travelers.

That's right, she was responsible for producing high yields of glass, cement, gunpowder, sea salt, perfume, lip balm, soap, soy sauce, sweet potatoes, potatoes, greenhouse vegetables, and rice.

What, you can become a talented woman based on your poetry collection?

I'm really sorry about that. She also published a collection of poems. Isn't it infuriating? All the roads are blocked now.

In short, just because she knows so many things, I would admire her even if she didn't invent them.

I found a few books for Xia Zhu to hold.

Then I went to the small pavilion and sat there to feed the fish.

Looking at the fishes tumbling in the water to grab food, Shen Jingyi smiled. This is really a great place.

After playing for a while, I felt a little sleepy, so I went home.

When Chuntao saw Shen Jingyi coming back with Xia Zhu and Dongmei, she happily went out to greet them.

"Concubine, you're back. The prince has asked someone to build a small kitchen for us!"

"So fast!"

Shen Jingyi was a little surprised. Is the efficiency so high?

"Where's Aunt Qin?"

"Mammy is watching over the preparation of your trousseau."

"Where is the box the princess gave me when we served tea this morning? I took it and looked at it, but I don't know what's inside."

When she came back in the morning she was so sleepy that she forgot about it.

"I put it in the cabinet. I'm going to get it for you now."

Xia Zhu said this and went into the inner room carrying the book.

"Let's go. It's too hot in the afternoon and I'm going to sleep for a while.

Please keep an eye on the time, I’m afraid I’ll feel sleepy at night if I sleep too long.”

As they were talking they had already walked into the room.

Dongmei is lively and dares to say anything.

After seeing that there was no one around, he said, "Hehe... Concubine, you may be worrying too much. The prince will come over tonight."

The subtext is, "The prince will come over tonight, and you may not be able to sleep at night."

"Ye, our Dongmei knows a lot.

Do you want to get married?

If you have any crush on someone, tell me and I will make the decision for you and prepare a generous dowry for you to marry off.”

Dongmei became shy and said, "What are you talking about, concubine? I don't want to get married."

Then he stamped his feet, covered his face and ran out.

"Humph, you want to tease me with your low level of skills...hahahaha"

Shen Jingyi even laughed as she spoke.

Chuntao...the master is becoming more and more naughty, and his personality is becoming more and more cheerful, but this is really good.

At this time, Xia Zhu came over from the compartment next to her holding a mahogany carved box, and just happened to see Dongmei's back as she ran out.

"Why did Dongmei run away?"

"It's okay, don't worry about her. Is this the one the princess gave you this morning?"

"Yes, I haven't opened it either!"

"Then open it now and see what our princess gave us."

Shen Jingyi said as she sat in front of the dressing mirror and asked Chuntao to take off her hairpins and rings for her.

Xia Zhu opened it and placed it on the dressing table for Shen Jingyi to see.

Shen Jingyi reached out and picked it up. It was a hollow gold carved bracelet.

It is big but not very heavy in the hand.

Shen Jingyi smacked his lips and said, "Huh, this is just a face-saving skill."

Then he handed it to Xia Zhu.

Xia Zhu took it and looked at it and said, "This concubine seems to be an item from a few years ago."

"Really? Then take it to the store and have it melted and changed into a different style!" Shen Jingyi said indifferently.

"Okay, you guys go out, I'm going to take a nap."

As Shen Jingyi spoke, he walked to the bed and lay down. Soon, the sound of even breathing could be heard.
