All the concubines in the harem are time travelers

Wang Huai grinned. The princess was really innocent. She was already of marriageable age, so why did she still say such things? She wasn't afraid of the gossips of the palace people.

"My little princess, please stop saying this. The emperor and you are no longer six or seven years old. There is a difference between men and women. How can you sleep in the same bed?"

"Besides, the bed here is a dragon bed, not the bed in the East Palace. You cannot lie on it no matter what."

"The Emperor won't allow it, and neither will Queen Yongning."

Fuqiu snorted. She was the most honorable princess in Chujin State. Her mother was a legitimate daughter and her aunt was the current empress dowager. So what if it was a dragon bed? She just wanted to sit on the dragon throne and no one dared to really punish her.

Punishing her would be punishing her mother, and her mother was a great contributor to the Chu and Jin states. If her mother had not gone to marry, the Chu and Jin states would have perished long ago.

Everyone’s current life is thanks to her mother.

Fuqiu was raised by the Queen Mother since she was a child. The Queen Mother took pity on her young age and asked her to go to the Eastern Palace to accompany her cousin the Crown Prince. She was the first to have all the delicious food and drinks in the Eastern Palace, and the palace people all obeyed her orders, so she developed a spoiled personality.

She was born beautifully. It is said that when she was born, the lotus flowers in the pond instantly blossomed, and the fragrance filled the air, which was so beautiful.

Some immortals even said that this was the birth of the fairy in charge of lotus flowers in heaven, so the late emperor named it Fuqiu, which means lotus.

"Who said my cousin doesn't allow it? I want to go in and ask him myself."

"My cousin accepted the sachet I sent him last time. He treats me differently from other people in the palace."

The other people naturally refer to the concubines in the harem. The sachet that Princess Fuqiu sent a few days ago had mandarin ducks embroidered on it. It didn't look like something a cousin would give to her cousin. Instead, it looked like something a girl waiting to be married would give to her lover.

The emperor did not like such a sachet and said he would give it to Lord Liang as a reward.

"Yes, yes, the princess is naturally different in the emperor's heart."

"But I really can't let you in today. If you don't want to wait, please go back first."

Wang Huai stretched out his hand, indicating that she could leave the Qianqing Palace. His attitude was respectful and at least he gave her face in front of the palace servants. He did not mention that the emperor had already given him the sachet and asked him to put it aside.

There was a scorching sun above Fuqiu's head, and the palace maids behind her were holding long-handled fans. Her heart was burning with anger and she felt depressed.

It seems that my cousin is not taking a nap.

If she is not allowed to go in, does that mean there is a woman inside?

"Is the woman inside Bu Ji?"

She asked Wang Huai through gritted teeth.

Her mother and aunt never talked about matters in the harem in front of her. She learned the name Bu Ji from Concubine Jia. She accidentally heard Concubine Jia chatting with the palace maid Qin Yin beside her, saying that Bu Ji was a seductive concubine who had been pestering the emperor recently.

She really wanted to meet what kind of woman named Bu Ji was who could charm her cousin.

Wang Huai was stunned and denied it repeatedly.

"No, Princess, you are worrying too much. There is no one inside. It's just that the Emperor doesn't see guests."

"I didn't let you in because I was afraid the emperor would be angry with you."

"How about waiting for another day, when the emperor is in a good mood, and inviting the princess to have dinner with him? What do you think?"

Fuqiu was not so easy to talk to. She pushed Wang Huai away and broke into the Qianqing Palace with the palace maids behind her.

"Brother Ji~"

She ran in with a smile, but didn't see any trace of the emperor.

He walked straight from the main hall to the bedroom, shouting as he walked.

"Brother Ji, where are you?"

She couldn't find Li Ji, so she stood there, pouting and talking to herself.

"You are not a child anymore, why is Brother Ji still playing hide-and-seek with me? I don't know where he is hiding."

Wang Huai stood at the door, looked at her back, and sighed.

I just hope she can't find the emperor and go back by herself.

After a cup of tea, Fuqiu still showed no intention of leaving. She had realized that the emperor was not here.

He turned around and asked Wang Huai.

"Eunuch Wang, tell me where my cousin went?"

"Otherwise I will tell my aunt that my cousin is missing. Then you won't be able to save your head."

Fuqiu is good at scaring people, and she always keeps her word. Wang Huai doesn't dare to lie to her anymore.

"To reply to the princess, the emperor has left the palace."

"I didn't say when I'd be back. You won't be able to wait here today."

When she heard that the emperor had left the palace, Fuqiu was extremely happy and asked Wang Huai excitedly.

"Leaving the palace?"

"That's great. I've always wanted to go out of the palace with my cousin. When we were young, my aunt kept an eye on us and wouldn't let me go out with my cousin."

"Tell me quickly, where did my cousin go? Did he go to Tianxianglou? I heard that a new chef came there recently and he cooks delicious dishes."

Wang Huai lowered his head. He really didn't know where the emperor had gone. He only knew that he had gone to find Concubine Bu.

But how can I tell this to Princess Fuqiu?

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty didn't say where he was going. He must have gone to see His Royal Highness Prince Yu."

Fuqiu didn't doubt his words at all, she nodded rapidly and agreed.

"Yes, my cousin must have gone to see His Royal Highness Prince Yu. They have the best relationship."

As she spoke, she ran out, followed closely by two little palace maids.

Wang Huai breathed a sigh of relief, finally sending the giant Buddha away.

His Royal Highness Prince Yu often leaves the palace and comes and goes without a trace. It is not easy for County Lord Fuqiu to find him, and she won’t be able to find any problems in a short time.

Your Majesty, please go look for Concubine Bu. She will probably be back before curfew. If Princess Fuqiu comes again tomorrow, this matter can be resolved easily.

It's great that no one knows about it.

Wang Huai felt that the position of the Chief of the Imperial Household Department was not something that just anyone could handle. He had to be quick-witted and have a good eye, and he had to constantly deal with all the nobles.

If you are not careful, you will lose your head.

But he was smart and always knew who his master was. He was the emperor's servant, so naturally he put the emperor first in everything.

No matter who you are dealing with, you can't go wrong as long as you are of the same mind as the emperor.

Fuqiu ran straight to the palace gate and happened to meet Lin Chengrui and his men on patrol.

"I have seen the princess."

"Get up."

Fuqiu glanced at him indifferently and asked him to stand up. When Lin Chengrui stood up, an embroidered handkerchief with a red peony embroidered on it fell out from his clothes.

The white handkerchief and the red peony flowers were very eye-catching. Fuqiu couldn't help but look at them, she said jokingly.

"I didn't expect that even you have a favorite woman."

“We have really grown up.”

There was a hint of resentment in her eyes. She wished she could go back to her childhood when she and her cousin lived in the East Palace and had no worries.

There are no bad women around my cousin, and my mother has not returned from the imperial mausoleum yet. There is no one to discipline her, so she can do whatever she wants.

Her cousin belongs to her alone.
