Jinwei joins hands in rebirth: villains can also eat at the table

"You are so thoughtful. I heard that you have been going to the Empress Dowager and Concubine Gu Mei these days, and you have lost a lot of weight. I will spend some time with you when I am free in a few days. I have some memorials to present in the Yangxin Palace, so I will go back first." He pinched Yan Wan's cheek lightly and said softly.

"Yes, I will send you to the Emperor respectfully."

It was not until the emperor's figure disappeared around the corner that Yan Wan slowly raised her head with a mocking look on her face.

She lowered her head and fiddled with the ring on her finger, then walked away disdainfully.

This mother and son were in the same boat when their interests were the same. However, when the emperor ascended the throne and the empress dowager wanted to control the government, their interests began to conflict and they quarreled with each other.

Now that the Queen Mother has stepped back and given up her position, the two of them can naturally put aside their past grudges and continue to perform the drama of a loving mother and a filial son.

How hypocritical! In this small world, even the love between mother and child is so hypocritical.

For several days in a row, the emperor would visit the empress dowager whenever he had free time.

I don’t know if it was a psychological effect or if what Concubine Cao Yi said was really useful, but the emperor gradually felt much more relaxed, no longer in the state of wanting but not being able to do anything as before.

The imperial physician came to see me in recent days and said that my health is improving.

He still remembered that he wanted to go to Yongshou Palace to see Concubine Ling, so as soon as the morning court was over, he asked Jinzhong to go to Yongshou Palace to tell her that he would go to Yongshou Palace to have lunch with her at noon, and asked Yongshou Palace to prepare it in advance.

Thinking of how she had been accompanying the empress dowager for the past few days, which must have taken a lot of effort, she generously rewarded Jinzhong with a lot of things and asked him to take them away.

Jinzhong was a little drowsy when he woke up early, but after getting this task, he became more energetic.

Rewards are good! He loves giving rewards.

Although it is summer, there is still a cool breeze in the early morning in the Forbidden City, the morning dew has not yet dissipated, and the Yongshou Palace is quiet.

He arrived at an unfortunate time, as Yan Wan had gone to Yikun Palace to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager early in the morning.

"Eunuch Jinzhong, please sit down and have a cup of tea. My master has been gone for a while and I guess he will be back soon."

Lan Cui looked around and found that no one noticed the commotion, so she felt relieved and led Jinzhong to the side hall for tea.

Jinzhong fiddled with the tea listlessly. Without his master, even the tea from Yongshou Palace didn't taste good.

I was just killing time when I looked up and saw Chunchan coming to me.

"Eunuch Jinzhong, my master has returned. Please move to the main hall."

Jinzhong's eyes lit up immediately, he straightened his collar and headed towards the main hall.

"Eunuch Jinzhong has been acting quite impressively lately. There was quite a commotion in Qixiang Palace that day. I heard that everyone in the palace has been avoiding you. You must be quite powerful."

Yanwan sat at the top, looking at him with a smile on her face.

She was wearing a peach-colored Manchu dress with lifelike embroidery and large patches of flowers blooming on it.

"Who made them follow Concubine Jia to bully the Empress? I just can't stand it, and I want to teach them a little lesson. My Lord, why did you send someone to show mercy and bribe them? In those five years, there was no good opportunity for them. I have shown mercy by not taking their lives."

Jinzhong was smiling originally, but when he mentioned Qixiang Palace, a hint of cruelty flashed across his face.

He squatted down in front of Yan Wan, holding her small hand, and said in a muffled voice, "I only regret that I didn't come back soon enough to rescue Master Ling earlier. I have never forgotten how much pain these hands have endured. I will demand back every penny they owe Master Ling."

"Jinzhong, I am so lucky to meet you in this deep palace. If not, I would not be able to hold on."

Looking at Jinzhong's pious face, Yanwan couldn't help but feel emotional.

How could Wei Yanwan deserve such a man to go through fire and water for her?

"I have been in the palace since I was a child, and it has been over ten years now. I have been living like a walking corpse. When I first met you, I only wanted to find comfort in the palace, always saying that my soul was seduced by you. But since I met you, I feel that I have grown a soul. My Lord, you are my soul. Even if I have to go through fire and water, I will still support you..."

His words were heartbreaking, heartbreaking for his lover. As Yanwan listened, her heart ached, and tears began to fall.

"Don't cry. I deserve to die. I made you cry again. You look the best when you smile. Ever since that rainy night, I swore I would never make you cry again."

Seeing her crying, Jinzhong was a little panicked. He quickly wiped the tears from her cheeks, softened his voice, and coaxed her gently.

Jinzhong was always afraid that she would cry. He always felt that only incompetent men would make women cry. Every time he saw her cry, he felt uncomfortable too.

"I never saw your good side before, but now it's not too late. When we're done, I'll be with you even to the ends of the earth."

Yan Wan also felt a little out of control, and quickly sorted out her messy emotions. She took his hand, touched the emerald green ring with her fingertips, her eyes moving and tears welling up in her eyes.

"Okay, I will obey you. It's getting late, and I have to go back to serve the Emperor. It's time to tell Chunchan to get ready."

He patted Yanwan's hand, and when he stood up, he did not forget to straighten her messy dress hanging in front of her legs.

"Just wait and see, Eunuch Jinzhong. I have arranged everything for today's performance."

Seeing her confident look, Jinzhong was very happy. In his past and present lives, for more than twenty years combined, she had learned all his skills to the fullest. How could he not be happy?

After watching Jinzhong leave the bedroom, Yanwan's expression faded and she picked up a military book beside her to read.

This military book can not only be used in marching and fighting, but is also very applicable in harem struggles.

She looked up nonchalantly, shifting her gaze from the book to the incense burner beside her, from which wisps of smoke rose. "Chunchan, has everything been prepared in the kitchen?"

"Don't worry, Master. I have taken care of everything. I promise I won't find any fault."

"Well, you always do things properly. Tell the kitchen to get busy. It's not long before lunch, so we need to prepare everything properly."

Having listened to almost everything, Yan Wan withdrew her gaze with satisfaction, lowered her head and continued to leisurely read the contents of the book.

"Yes, I will do it right away."

……

The Yiku Palace was located to the north of the Yongshou Palace, with only a road separating the two palaces. Whenever meals were served, the palace servants from the two palaces would take the same road and often meet each other.

Ruyi was worried about the Fifth Prince, so she asked Rong Pei to go to the Yanx Palace to deliver some cakes and pastries made from the small kitchen of the Yikun Palace. When she came back, she happened to find that the people from the Yikun Palace had returned with Lan Cui from the Yongshou Palace.

You can tell without thinking that they are just chatting on the road, and there is no need to worry about missing the job.

She frowned and scolded, "Stupid girl, hurry up! Can you afford to delay the Queen's meal?"

Lan Cui quickly defended herself, "I'm so sorry, Aunt Rong Pei. I went to get some deer blood to make some deer blood wine, but I ran into a urgency halfway through, so I asked Miss Yunzhi for help. I didn't expect to delay her errand. I'm so sorry! The Emperor will be dining at Yongshou Palace soon, so I'll be leaving now. Please do as you please, Aunt Rong Pei."

After she finished speaking, she ran away. Rong Pei's brows became tighter and tighter, and she thought to herself that something was wrong.
