Chapter 73 Kite Mistake

Concubine Hua still wanted to try out the "An Lingrong Confidence Development Plan" she had developed, maybe it would sow some good seeds.

Hua Fei collected her thoughts and said directly to Song Zhi, "Go tell Bao Que to ask An Chang to make three less common spices in the near future. Yi Yi must write down the recipes. If they are good, I will not treat them unfairly."

"Yes." Songzhi's eyes were full of admiration. Her young master was so handsome when he was doing his business.

Concubine Hua felt Songzhi's admiring look and proudly stroked the Hua Cui on her temples. This palace is so charming that people can't take their eyes off it.

When the willow leaves grew all over the branches, when the apricot flowers opened their buds, and when the spring breeze blew across the earth, little Yunzi began to build a swing in the imperial garden.

During this period, Noble Concubine Fucha had fetal movement once every two days on average, and begged the Emperor to go to the Yanx Palace to see her. The Emperor sat in the Tiyuan Hall and looked at Noble Concubine Fucha's belly, which was not even noticeable, but his eyes involuntarily looked towards the west wing hall where An Lingrong lived, and he felt upset.

Emperor: Rong'er blames me. Every time I come, she keeps the door closed.

An Lingrong: No, I'm busy making money. Thank you, Noble Lady Fucha, for sharing the burden with me.

After all, Noble Lady Fucha annoyed the Emperor to no end, and Yu Ying'er's house arrest happened to be lifted.

Yu Ying'er, who had slept well for three months during the house arrest, learned several new Kunqu operas, one of which was "The Kite Mistake", which she learned best.

The Queen Mother, the head of the Kunqu Opera training class, was very satisfied after listening to the song.

Concubine Hua listened to Xiaolouzi's report with a sly smile on her lips. What a great song "The Kite Mistake". Was the Queen using "The Kite Mistake" to hint to the Emperor that he had recognized the wrong person and sang "The Plum Blossom Mistake"?

It seems that the Queen can't wait to push Zhen Huan out, and how can Concubine Hua let the Queen have her way?

When Concubine Hua heard that the swing in the Imperial Garden had been set up, she felt relieved. She wanted to see whether it was the Empress who was quicker or the fate of Zhen Huan and the Emperor that came faster.

After thinking about everything she needed to think about, Hua Fei felt that it was time for her to use her brain again. She slightly raised her armor and pressed her temple with her fingertips.

No, I am a silly beauty. This character cannot be ruined, and my beauty cannot be compromised at all. Worrying too much will cause wrinkles.

"Are you tired, Your Majesty? The sun is shining outside today, why don't we go for a walk in the Imperial Garden?" Song Zhi asked.

Imperial Garden? No way. How could she go there and disturb the Emperor and Zhen Huan's date?

"No need, I'm too lazy to move, I'll just rest in the palace for a while."

Concubine Hua has indeed been feeling lazy lately. She often cannot wake up and feels sleepy. She also eats more than usual. It might be spring sleepiness.

Hua Fei didn't think too much about it. She picked up the notebook on the desk and read it. Mr. Chunnuanhuakaisanjin's updates became more frequent.

I heard that Nian Xi's bookstore has opened outside the palace. Mr. San Jin's books have been well received as soon as they were released, and people who want to keep up with the latest updates can even break down the door of the bookstore.

Nian Xi came in and said that the updates for Concubine Hua are the latest and have not yet been sold on the market.

When Concubine Hua heard that Nian Xi was so sensible and satisfied, she said, "Not only does she want to wear the most gorgeous and exquisite jewelry, the best Shu brocade, eat the most delicious snacks, use the most Luozi ink, but she also wants to read the latest scripts."

-------------------------------------

Sure enough, after a few days, the long streets of the entire Forbidden City’s harem began to be filled with waves of continuous water-grinding singing.

At least the music was changed, and all the concubines in the palace could listen to it in a new way through the palace walls.

The whole process of Yu's restoration to favor also floated in the ears of everyone in the harem along with the Shuimo tune.

The credit for this spread should go to Xiao Xiazi, the number one entertainment reporter in the harem.

Pei'er, who was going to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get something, looked at Yu's back as she walked away and said, "I heard that Yu's daughter sang all night at the gate of the Yangxin Palace. Oh, her voice was hoarse."

"So what if I'm hoarse? I sang to the emperor's heart." Huanbi looked at Yu unconvincedly, "We are all palace maids, but she is favored all of a sudden. When we go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get something, we have to eat a good meal and get the first place."

At this moment, Yu Ying'er sat in the sedan chair given by the emperor himself and majestically passed through the long street to pay her respects at Jingren Palace.

After a night of being favored, Yu did not return to Zhongcui Palace. Instead, she took a sedan chair from the Yangxin Palace, first went around the six western palaces, then went to the six eastern palaces and stopped at each palace gate for a while, and then went to Jingren Palace to pay respects to the empress.

When passing by Shoukang Palace, the empress dowager was worshiping Buddha in the hall with the smell of sandalwood curling up. The empress dowager had been in a much better mood in recent days because two concubines in the harem were pregnant, and she was more sincere when worshiping Buddha than usual. When the empress dowager heard a burst of Kunqu opera that she had not heard for a long time coming from the quiet hall, the Buddhist beads in her hand stopped.

"Zhu Xi, what's going on?" The Queen Mother slowly opened her closed eyes, without a trace of kindness in them.

Aunt Zhuxi heard about Yu's restoration to favor early in the morning. She wanted to wait until the empress dowager finished worshipping Buddha before reporting back, but she didn't expect that Yu was so unrestrained.

"Replying to the Queen Mother, the three-month confinement of the Yuguan woman ended a few days ago."

As a slave, it was not easy for Zhuxi to make up stories about her master. She just stated the fact in a calm manner and the empress dowager understood.

The empress dowager never expected that when the late emperor was alive, those who competed with her were at least for the positions of concubines and imperial consorts. Now that she was the empress dowager, she had to keep a pair of eyes on her son's concubines and court ladies all day long.

The empress dowager simply stood up. It was not possible to meditate and worship Buddha today. Zhu Xi saw that the empress dowager wanted to get up and hurried forward to support her.

"Don't worry, Queen Mother. The Yuguan girl is just a plaything for the Emperor to relax in his spare time. The Emperor knows his limits."

"Even so, the emperor has grown older, and the people around him have become more frivolous. The previous Concubine Shen was a good one, but now she is pregnant again. Alas~"

"Zhu Sheng sent the message saying that Concubine Shen's pregnancy is in great shape. She will give birth to a chubby little prince this autumn. There is nothing for the empress dowager to be unhappy about." When the empress dowager heard the word "prince", a smile appeared on her bitter face.

Let Yu jump around for a few days.

"The fluttering kite stirs up my thoughts. The kite is so careless that it makes us miss each other."

Concubine Hua in Yikun Palace listened to the tune floating in from outside the palace wall, leaning on the couch reading a storybook, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

This queen is really a murderer. She wants to use Yu and also roast her on the fire rack in the Forbidden City.

The Queen must be tired of seeing Yu being favored, so she didn't even say a word to dissuade her from being so ostentatious.

If the emperor realizes that he has recognized the wrong person, will Yu still be able to survive?

Hua Fei casually turned over a page of the storybook, and the leisurely water-grinding tune drifted away to other places.

It’s not that Yu had not tried to show her goodwill to Concubine Hua before, but Songzhi and Zhou Ninghai both disliked Yu, so they never said anything good about her in front of Concubine Hua.

Zhou Ninghai was especially unhappy when he accidentally heard Yu scolding Xiao Xiazi as a rootless person.

When Yu came to knock on the door of Yikun Palace before, Zhou Ninghai simply did not let her in.

Even the people around the emperor were disrespectful, so Concubine Hua felt that there was no need to be on good terms with Yu, so as to avoid getting into trouble again in this life.
