I want to ruin the country

But after Zhang Changtian came, the brother and sister couldn't say a few words at all. Several girls surrounded her and asked her questions, and she had no chance to interrupt.

Chunlan, in particular, kept bringing food to her brother, including fruits, candies, preserves, and snacks. She thought to herself, maybe she had a crush on her brother.

It's useless to look at them, because all the women who enter the palace belong to the emperor.

However, Zhang Qingxi was not worried about her brother's marriage. Her brother was a handsome man and an official, so why would he worry about not having anyone to marry him?

Tangguo was even happier. Suddenly, she had several older sisters who played with her every day, made her happy, and gave her snacks and desserts that she couldn't finish. She almost forgot about her father, Luo Shixin!

In short, the place where Hongxiu lived became the place with the most laughter in the Forbidden City.

If this had happened in the past, the eunuchs and maids in the palace would have come and scolded you, saying that your behavior was improper. At the very least, you would be punished by standing in the corner or being slapped in the face. At the worst, you would be beaten with a cane.

Who dares to do that now? We have the emperor’s support!

Candy fruit became a toy for several girls. As soon as you picked it up, they would take it and sometimes throw it around. The little girls would sometimes laugh out loud and sometimes turn pale with fright.

The little girl's illness has been cured, and she is slowly recovering under the careful care of Hongxiu and the four palace maids.

Yining waved his hand.

"Get in!"

The girls who were having fun saw the emperor coming in and quickly bowed.

Yining asked,

"Xiu'er, you've memorized the book very well!"

Hongxiu said,

"Your Majesty, if it weren't for Tang Guoguo's mischief, we could have saved a day!"

Yining Road,

"Six of you are taking care of a little girl and you're still accusing her of causing trouble. How busy can you be?"

Xia He said,

"This child is so funny. We are so happy to have her!"

Yining Road,

"Where is she? Why is she gone? Come out and let me see how this little girl is doing."

It turned out that Tangguo was hiding behind the curtain, only poking her little head out to look outside.

Xia He went to pull her over,

"Let His Majesty see it!"

The little girl stared at Yining with her big black eyes, but she didn't seem afraid.

Yining squatted down, took her little hand and kissed it.

"Yes, her face has become plump. This little girl will definitely be very beautiful when she grows up. Bring the strawberries over and let Tangguo eat them!"

Several girls cheered when they saw the strawberries. Strawberries were a rare commodity in this season and could not be eaten anywhere else except in the palace.

Xia He fed Tang Guo a strawberry and said,

"Boys take after their mothers, girls after their fathers. I wonder how tall this child will grow when he grows up!"

Yining Road,

"Tall is good, graceful and elegant. If you are short and thick, can you still be called graceful and elegant?"

Several palace maids were already familiar with Yining and knew that he was not particular about details and loved to joke around. One of them, Qiuju, started joking.

"Your Majesty, this little girl has long bones and will definitely be tall. Her appearance is also correct. Why not let her become your concubine when she grows up!"

Yining glared at her.

"Stop talking nonsense! I'm old enough to be her father. How could I have the heart to lay my hands on such a little girl? Do you think I'm a beast?!"

Dongmei said,

"Your Majesty, there's nothing to be afraid of if you're young. You'll be older in a dozen years!"

Yining Road,

"Don't talk nonsense! It's detrimental to one's virtue. If I had that intention, I'd rather execute you right here and now!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the palace maids were speechless and had no answer.

A few people could only look at Yining with resentment, meaning, don’t just talk the talk, if you have the ability, take us down!

Who among them doesn't want to be favored by the emperor? Even if it's only once in a lifetime, she will still be the emperor's woman.

But they knew that it was obvious that the emperor liked Hongxiu, but there had been no substantial progress so far. When would it be their turn?

Besides, here comes the bright and beautiful Zhang Qingxi, there are too many wolves and too little meat!

Looking at the hungry eyes of the palace maids, Yining suddenly felt that she had said something wrong!

Damn it, it was just a joke, but how did it make these ladies' eyes water? Oh no, I have to change the subject quickly!

"Did Tang Guo make a fuss about leaving his father?"

Hongxiu felt relieved and replied,

“It can’t be considered as a quarrel, but his eyes are always full of tears, which makes people feel distressed.

After two days, she felt much better, eating and drinking well, and quickly forgot about her father!"

I thought to myself, it was a close call, these sisters almost ate the emperor!

My god, how come these quiet little girls are so aggressive?

When Tang Guo heard Yining mention her father, tears seemed to well up in her eyes, and she suddenly whispered,

“I miss my daddy!”

Yining felt a pang in his heart and said,

"You still miss your dad. Didn't her dad come to see her?"

Before Hongxiu could say anything, Xia He came over, picked up Tang Guo and said,

"He came once, and he said it was inconvenient to come more often, and he said he was very busy!"

Yining understood that Luo Shixin was trying to avoid suspicion. Except for the eunuchs, all the people in the palace were women, and it would be inconvenient for him to come in and out so often!

It is indeed inappropriate to separate the father and daughter, but Luo Shixin is indeed busy leading the troops, so it is better to find a mother for Tang Guoguo.

He looked at Xia He and asked,

"Xia He, do you like candy?"

Hongxiu spoke first,

"I love it so much that I even get up in the middle of the night to watch it several times!"

Xia He also said,

"This child is so sensible and lovable!"

Yining asked,

"If I asked you to be her mother, would you be willing?"

Xia He was stunned and her face suddenly turned red. She didn't know whether what the emperor said was true or not.

If it's true, that would be great. If nothing can happen between me and the emperor in the palace, I might as well get married early. Who doesn't want to have a normal family!

Yining saw her face turn red and said with a smile,

"Why, are you still embarrassed? Don't rush to answer. Just tell Hongxiu when you've made up your mind. I don't want to force you!"

Hongxiu smiled and said,

"Tangguo's father is quite good. He always keeps his head down when he comes here, and doesn't dare to look away. He's a real gentleman!"

Yining said,

"Well, let her make her own decision!"

After talking for a while, Yining left.

Come outside, walk around, Iraq Defense Road,

"Your Majesty, let's go back. It's too cold outside!"

Yining didn't want to go back, he wanted to take a walk.

"Stop talking nonsense and let's go!"

For the sake of Iraqi defense, they had to keep up.

Coming out of the warm house, the cold air made Yining feel refreshed.

Yi Fangfang quickly put a fox fur robe on him.

Looking up, the stars in the sky are densely packed and clearly visible, and you can vaguely see them blinking.

To want to see the stars so clearly in later generations is simply wishful thinking!

It’s different now that there’s no industrial pollution. Even the air seems to have a sweet smell.

It has been more than twenty days since I traveled here, and this is the first time I have strolled quietly in the palace at night. I feel really good!
