TV Series: When the Villain Chooses to Stand by
Chapter 39 Fu Cha Lang Ya 39
The two discussed for a long time and finally decided that it would be safest to add a title, such as sister or younger sister, so that their identities would not be exposed at any time.
In this day and age, it's amazing that they can accept this kind of thing.
It is normal for people like Gao Xiyue to worship the person behind the scenes as a god.
Langya once prepared a lot of storybooks for Gao Xiyue, most of which contained some strange stories.
The Buddhist scriptures also state that "the three thousand great thousand worlds are all created and destroyed" and "there are countless worlds in the ten directions". Such descriptions all illustrate that there are many worlds in the universe.
"Sister, what you mean is that those adventures might be projections from other worlds, so why do the previous scenes always revolve around Ruyi and the Emperor?"
"I always feel that there are gods behind such sacred objects. The picture of that little man last time was so lifelike."
Langya didn't dwell on this issue too much. It was hard to explain such things. She believed that there were gods watching over her, so she had a little more respect for life, which was an unexpected gain.
"Maybe. Since we can't control it, we should just let it go."
"That's what my sister said."
"But those men last night were really good-looking. They looked like immortals, and it was impossible to have any distracting thoughts."
Gao Xiyue clutched the quilt in both hands and excitedly shared what she saw with Langya.
I don't think there is anything wrong with her, a concubine and queen, saying these things.
Langya secretly complained in her heart, that was the eldest senior brother of Guiyuan Sect who practiced the ruthless way, of course you would not have any distracting thoughts, but it was a pity that his Taoist heart was broken later.
In private, Gao Xiyue and her daughter were very casual with Langya. They had been accompanying each other since they entered the mansion, and Langya never brought up her identity.
When everyone just entered the palace, Lord Gao specifically gave Gao Xiyue a message, telling her that there is a difference between the emperor and his subjects, and that the queen and the prince's wife are not the same.
When getting along with others in the future, you should be careful about the limits and not overstep the boundaries.
Gao Xiyue was very obedient and restrained for a while, calling her "Queen" every day. Langya still felt uncomfortable, so she had a serious talk with her once, and then things got better.
The two were talking excitedly when Jingluo and Jingxi came over.
"Your son pays his respects to the Empress Dowager and the Imperial Concubine."
"Come quickly and let the Empress Dowager see you. You must have had a nightmare. Why are you up so early?"
Langya touched the hands of the two little girls one by one. Fortunately, they were not very cold, so she asked again.
"Why are you up at this hour, and bringing your sister with you?"
Children are in the period of growth, and at Langya's strong request, the children are always required to have a good rest.
Hongli felt that this was too much indulgence, but he couldn't convince Langya, so he had to compromise in the end.
In his heart, no matter how preferential treatment the princesses receive, it is never too much, and it doesn't matter if they are a little pampered.
It is different for the princes. They have a heavy burden on their shoulders and cannot afford to slack off at all. After enlightenment, they must complete their tasks without fail.
What he didn't know was that the little princesses had learned just as much as the princes, and even more.
"Empress Dowager, we slept well without any nightmares. Yesterday, my sister and daughter made an appointment to go to the Imperial Garden to build a snowman together. We haven't been there yet, so we got up early."
Jingxi threw herself into her mother's arms, rubbing her cheek against the soft fur, and said coquettishly, "Madam, can you come with us?"
"You've been very busy lately and haven't been with your daughter for a long time."
After paying her respects, Jingluo began to climb onto the warm couch using her hands and feet.
"Mother, please save me... lend me a hand!"
Jingluo screamed in surprise and fluttered her limbs to move upwards.
When she just learned to speak, Gao Xiyue taught her seriously every day and never put down various poems and books.
Who would have thought that after my daughter grew up, she would have no interest in these things at all and her personality would become too lively.
Gao Xiyue once tried to correct her daughter's overly emotional nature, as she felt it was not dignified or stable at all.
It was Jingxi's words that reminded her, "Peony and peonies each have their own unique characteristics. Madam Hui, why force it? Who says women have to be steady?"
From then on, Gao Xiyue accepted this matter calmly. Her daughter was different from other princesses, but she still loved Jingluo very much.
But there is one exception.
Gao Xiyue herself has a cold body, so she always feels that her daughter is also afraid of the cold, so every winter she wraps her up like a meat ball.
In fact, she has been practicing martial arts for a long time and is much healthier than her. Although she is not afraid of the cold, Jingluo is still happy to accept this heavy maternal love.
Because she was wearing too many clothes, Jingluo's movements were slightly restricted, and she struggled to rush to her mother.
"Mother, why don't you help me?"
The little girl asked angrily. She was a little unhappy that no one had saved her.
Gao Xiyue has become accustomed to her daughter's behavior, and she always says what she wants.
"Baby is awesome, come in!"
The depression on Jingluo's face was instantly swept away, and a blush of embarrassment appeared on her face.
Mother is always like this, always speaking in such a cheesy way. She is already so old but still calls her baby.
But she quite liked it.
She lowered her head and twisted her chubby body to get into Gao Xiyue's quilt. It was so warm.
Gao Xiyue looked at her lovely daughter beside her, reached out and touched her hair, and her heart instantly melted into a ball of cotton. Her daughter still looked very much like her when she didn't do anything.
Jingluo adjusted her posture and chose the most comfortable way to nestle in her mother's arms. Just then, she heard her sister inviting the Empress Dowager to play with them.
His eyes suddenly lit up.
He shouted loudly: "Yes, let's go together, and mother will come too."
This was their first winter in the palace. In previous years, whenever it snowed, Langya would have people build snowmen for them, and in her spare time, she would also make some exquisite ice lanterns for them to enjoy.
As the children grew older, Langya tried to take them to do it themselves. Such activities were usually a must-do in winter.
But now their identities have changed drastically, and it is the first time for the little ones to do these in the Imperial Garden, so they feel a little novel.
Langya looked at her daughter's expectant eyes and couldn't bear to disappoint her.
"Then why don't we go after lunch? It's easy to catch a cold if we go out at this time."
"Okay, I'll listen to the Empress Dowager."
Jingxi and Langya are very similar. Their bodies are also warm in winter, and both of them stay away from the heater.
Lianxin happened to bring in food at this time.
"Come and try this. I made this baked pear for Yonglian last time when he had a cough. I put Sichuan loquat and sweet jujube honey in the middle. Drinking a cup of this is the warmest thing in winter."
"Wow, there are new delicious foods. The Empress is amazing."
Jingluo clapped her hands out of respect, her emotions reaching their maximum. In her heart, the Empress Dowager and her elder sister were the smartest, as they always had rare delicacies and toys.
"That's right. The Emperor wants to take away the small kitchen here."
Gao Xiyue was also a little hungry at this time, and she and Jingluo each held a roasted pear and ate it happily.
"Empress Mother, we have also made an appointment with our third sister, and our brothers have also said they will come together when they have time."
"Okay, Su Lian, go and make a run."
Langya prefers cold food, and the palace servants prepared it very well. In addition to the mangoes she specifically requested, there were also many other fruits and condiments.
Jingxi has her own preferences, she prefers fruits with a strong sour taste.
The mother and daughter discussed what would make it taste better.
Fresh fruits are hard to come by in winter, let alone these fruits that are only available in the south.
As the queen, Langya certainly cannot waste money and resources just to satisfy her own appetite. What she is using now are all prepared in advance by the caravan under her name.
Since she has that ability, of course she should be nicer to herself. Langya doesn't want to make herself uncomfortable just to comply with the rules.
As for the negative impact? This news cannot leave Changchun Palace.
Inside the Yangxin Hall.
Hongli casually put the handkerchief aside and said with disdain: "The Queen likes these sweet and greasy foods, but it's refreshing to taste them once in a while."
If it weren't for the smile that he couldn't suppress on the corners of his mouth and in his eyes, Wang Qin would have thought that he really didn't like her.
He stepped forward, took the tray, and handed it to Li Yu behind him. "This fruit is very rare in winter. The Queen is thinking of you."
"I've sent you the recipe for this mango milk soup along with the fruit. They said this will protect your eyes since you stay up late reviewing documents."
After hearing Wang Qin's words, Hongli was even happier. "The Empress has sent as much as her farm can bring to the capital. Go and give her the box of orange-pink pearls in my storehouse."
A few days ago, I heard her and Jingxi arguing about who looked better wearing pearls, mother or daughter. I sent more to each of them so that they would have something to choose from.
As for the little incidents during the greeting, Hongli had long forgotten them.
He had already been unfair to Concubine Jia by leaving Qixiang Palace last night, so it was normal for her to be unhappy. She also had some sense and did not attack Ruyi.
As for Concubine Chun, it is not a big mistake for her to be overly cautious out of a loving mother's heart.
Didn’t he almost die because of a bowl of mung bean soup when he was young? The queen was right, princes and princesses should be careful with the food they eat.
Even if Ruyi has good intentions, there is no guarantee that there won't be people with ulterior motives taking advantage of the situation.
Ruyi didn't suffer any loss anyway, and the palace maids around her were indeed behaving inappropriately, so she could be punished and taught a lesson.
"Li Xin, I want to enjoy the snow today. Please give orders that the snow at the palace gate does not need to be swept."
"Yes, master."
Li Xin knew that her master just wanted to watch the fun, so how could she easily tolerate the humiliation she suffered last night?
A moment later, all the utensils were ready in Qixiang Palace. Jin Yuyan sat there comfortably, surrounded by charcoal basins, hot tea and snacks.
A Ruo knelt at the gate of Qixiang Palace in great humiliation, holding the palace rules high above her head with both hands.
Her voice trembled as she recited the rules that the palace maids had to follow at night.
Her entire calves were buried in the snow, and the cold air penetrated into her body through the gaps in the fabric.
The palace maids coming and going could see her like this.
As arrogant as A Ruo was some time ago, she is now in a state of disarray.
"Aruo, the Empress has decreed that you should sincerely reflect on your actions here. This little noise is no louder than the toad in the pond."
"Why, don't you really admit your mistake?"
Li Xin received the hint from her master and immediately stepped forward to scold loudly.
The Empress only told her to memorize the palace rules, but didn't specify how many she had to memorize. Whether she was sincere or not depended entirely on Concubine Jia's intention.
Jin Yuyan did not dare to go too far and could only make things a little difficult for her. After all, the punishment was ordered by the Queen. If anything really happened to A Ruo, others would say that the Queen was unkind.
A Ruo also knew that the other party did it on purpose, but she had no choice but to close her eyes and raise her voice.
She didn't dare to look up, for fear of seeing the mocking and mocking eyes of others.
She secretly prayed in her heart that her master would come to rescue her.
As they are both concubines, the Empress Dowager has a lot of room for maneuver in her orders. As long as her master comes, Concubine Jia has to release the person even if she is unwilling.
In fact, Jin Yuyan was waiting for Ruyi to come and plead for mercy.
She had lost face last night, so naturally she had to get it back. A'ruo was just a personal maid, and all her actions were influenced by her master's suggestions.
Even if A Ruo was killed, it would not benefit Jin Yuyan in any way. She just wanted Ruyi to say good things about her in public.
As time passed, A Ruo's limbs gradually lost feeling and her voice became lower and lower.
Jin Yuyan found it really boring, so she walked forward and carefully lifted A Ruo's chin with her armor.
"Aren't you Concubine Xian's maidservant? She actually let you kneel here for such a long time without even checking on you or asking you anything."
"It seems that the relationship between you two, master and servant, is just this good."
"I thought she would care about you so much. Forget it, go back now. Remember this. You can't just barge into my Qixiang Palace."
These words stirred up a huge wave in A Ruo's heart. For the first time, she doubted whether her loyalty was worth it.
"Li Xin, pour this stuff in, but don't pour it out at the gate of my palace, it will bring bad luck."
A bowl of hot ginger soup was poured into A Ruo's mouth, bringing a hint of warmth to her body.
Jin Yuyan just wanted to avoid leaving a bad reputation. The queen and the imperial concubine were very kind to the palace people, and if she showed up, she would become the target of public criticism.
The emperor won’t like it then.
But such behavior made A Ruo even more confused. A concubine who had always been at odds with the Yanx Palace could do this, so what about her master?
That was the master she had served since childhood, and they grew up together.
Wasn’t it for her that I broke into Qixiang Palace last night?
Ruyi was complaining to惢心 at this moment, "When did Concubine Chun become like this? We were so close when we were in the Qiandi Palace."
"She actually became suspicious of me. The Queen is truly amazing. I wonder what tricks she used to coax them into being so loyal."
Suo Xin was still worried whether she would be punished as well. After all, the Queen Mother said that the master should take care of the matter.
In order to make Ruyi happy,惢心 said anything.
"Master is so kind, it's Concubine Chun who is too suspicious. In that case, let's just stay away from her."
"The most important thing right now is that you take good care of yourself and have a prince of your own."
As soon as the child was mentioned, all of Ruyi's attention was diverted.
"Has the silver been delivered?"
"I've already sent it to Madam, and the Master also said he'll keep an eye on it for you."
Speaking of this,惢心 becomes anxious. In recent years, the Ulanara family has become increasingly impoverished. Not only does they have no help at all, but they also need help from their master.
Now the master has been fined half a year's salary. It's okay for now because he has the emperor's reward, but it can't always be like this.
