Harem Daily Life

He Linzhang strode quickly across the wind and rain corridor and walked towards the yard. From afar, he saw a graceful figure sitting on a swing in the moonlight, swaying back and forth, like a painting.

He Linzhang calmed himself down and walked over slowly. When Qingfeng saw His Majesty coming, he immediately bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

Tao Yanyan turned her head slightly and saw a tall figure standing not far away. She wanted to stand up, but He Linzhang's voice came: "Sit down, no need to be polite."

Qingfeng and the others tactfully left so as not to disturb the two people's time alone under the moonlight.

He Linzhang slowly walked to Tao Yanyan's side and stood still. Looking at the low swing frame, he laughed and said, "You play with children's toys too?" He immediately felt that the person in front of him still had a childlike heart.

Tao Yanyan gave him a reproachful look: "Who isn't a baby? Your Majesty always tells me to be good!"

He Linzhang was stunned, and a hint of red appeared on the tip of his ears.

Tao Yanyan looked away and raised his head to look at the full moon in the sky: "It's almost the end of the month, the Queen Mother is probably going to the temporary palace, right?"

He Linzhang did not forget his mother, and nodded, saying, "Every year after my birthday, the Queen Mother would leave for the Hot Spring Palace to stay for a few months, where you can soak in hot springs in the winter. I used to go there with her when I was a child, but after I took power, I had little time."

Tao Yanyan smiled and said, "Last year, I accompanied the Queen Mother to the temporary palace for a few months. Your Majesty also took time to visit me. He came to my bed in the middle of the night and almost scared me to death. I thought there was a thief in the room."

He Linzhang paused, and there seemed to be one or two beautiful scenes in his mind, as well as a man holding a fat rabbit in his hand, which he had hunted specially for someone.

He tried hard to think, and suddenly felt a headache: "Hiss..." He Linzhang covered his head and was a little unsteady.

Tao Yanyan immediately stood up and hugged his waist: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"

He Linzhang leaned towards her and supported himself: "Whenever I think about it, I get a headache. But it doesn't matter, it will be fine after a while."

Tao Yanyan said worriedly: "Then don't think about it. Don't recall anything. Those are all in the past. It doesn't matter if you can't remember them."

He Linzhang took a long time to relax, and finally the pain was gone. He lowered his head to look at the little woman who was holding him: "Is it really okay? If I can't remember it, will you... be sad?"

From what Zhang Fuhai said, to the children's behavior, and everything he saw in the study, He Linzhang knew that he and the person in front of him were once very affectionate. But now, his memory of her is very vague. What would she think if the past affection was forgotten?

Tao Yanyan sighed, "Your Majesty, to be honest, I am more afraid than sad. I am worried about why Your Majesty is in this situation. Is it because of poisoning and losing memory, or is there something else? I am afraid that in addition to your memory loss, there will be other problems?"

He Linzhang looked at the worry in her eyes, and somewhere in his heart felt soft as if it was brushed by clouds.

"Since you already know everything, I won't hide it from you." He Linzhang's headache eased, and he took her to the pavilion to sit down. "I just felt this way in the last few days. I can't remember you, nor can I remember other concubines. Only... my memory of the queen is very deep. I suspect that I was drugged in Fengyi Palace. However, the queen has always been prudent and upright, so it's impossible for her to poison someone."

He Linzhang expressed his guess, and even he himself did not think that this amnesia had anything to do with the Queen.

Tao Yanyan said nothing. Although she was very suspicious of the Queen, she was unwilling to speculate on things without evidence. Moreover, under the premise that the Emperor only remembered the Queen, she would not be stupid enough to say openly that she suspected the Queen and make the Emperor unhappy.

"Have you asked the imperial physician to take your pulse?" The imperial physicians in the palace are all the best in the medical field. If there is poisoning, they have their own methods of testing for it.

He Linzhang nodded. "After you left the Imperial Study, I called the Imperial Physician, but he said I was in good health. I didn't feel unwell, except that I couldn't remember you. Just now, when I tried to think about you, I had a splitting headache."

Tao Yanyan thought for a moment, and then told the story of the Taoist priest on Penglai Island: "Your Majesty, do you think it was the work of the Canglong Sect? At the beginning, the Taoist priest said that as long as you take his pills, you can control your mind."

However, Tao Yanyan thought about Qi Yizheng's behavior at that time and denied his guess: "But his pill controls people to be stupid, while Your Majesty loses the memory of a specific group of people, which is not the same."

After listening to the little concubine talking about the past, He Linzhang realized that he had actually ignored the affairs of state and traveled thousands of miles to save her! It seems that in his heart, the person in front of him is more important than the country.

Seeing him staring at her blankly, Tao Yanyan pouted and said, "Your Majesty, please say something. Do you think it has anything to do with the Canglong Sect?"

He Linzhang cleared his throat: "I will send Qi Yizheng to investigate and find out the truth as soon as possible. Concubine Tao, we...if I can't remember it, will you be angry?" He Linzhang remembered that Zhang Fuhai said that it was difficult to comfort the girl when she was angry.

Tao Yanyan rolled his eyes: "Of course I am angry. Your Majesty is so unguarded that he was tricked even in the palace!" After that, he glared at him angrily: "The last incident is not over yet. Your Majesty has been tricked for the second time. Your Majesty, you should be more careful. Don't think you can relax your vigilance just because you are at home."

After being blamed, He Linzhang heard the message in her words and couldn't help asking, "Being plotted against for the second time? Then what happened when I was plotted against for the first time?"

Tao Yanyan frowned and looked at him, hesitating whether to tell him or not. He was torn between his conscience and his desires. If he didn't tell him, His Majesty might ask others, and they would definitely tell him under the pressure of the emperor's power. So Tao Yanyan finally chose to tell him: "Your Majesty was deceived by Li Cairen last time, claiming that she was seriously ill, and was poisoned by love. He had sex with the concubine sister arranged by Li Cairen. Later, His Majesty named her concubine sister Liangyi."

He Linzhang frowned deeply and had no impression of the two people she mentioned at all.

"Logically speaking, they have violated palace rules by plotting against me, and they should be punished by being sent to the cold palace," He Linzhang said soberly.

Tao Yanyan nodded frantically: "That's right, but His Majesty didn't punish them at all. Hey, it seems that His Majesty also likes new and exciting things."

Hearing her say such lewd words, He Linzhang was furious: "I didn't punish you, it's definitely not because I like you, there must be other reasons."

He looked at Tao Yanyan steadily, as if he wanted to know from Tao Yanyan the truth why he did not punish the two sisters.
