Chapter 22(1/2)

It was pouring rain outside the window at night, and thunder kept roaring, and lightning flashed across as if to tear the sky into half.

The roaring wind roared in my ears, and the windows pounded.

Ye Yan'er stood inside the window, standing barefoot on the ground, staring at the dark night for a moment.

"Person, please go in quickly."

Luzhu found a cloak to put it on Ye Yan'er's shoulder, and reached out to pull her back.

Ye Yan'er stubbornly looked up: "Is the door locked?"

"No, I dare not forget the concubine's instructions."

Not yet, why didn't that person come?

She was most afraid of rainy days. Every time the weather changed, King Xiao would accompany her, take her into her arms and pat her carefully, coax her to fall asleep.

Why hasn't it been so strong today?

"Did you go to Danqiongyuan?" Ye Yan'er said to Luzhu: "You go and inquire."

Lu Zhu looked at the heavy rain outside the window, subconsciously didn't want to go, and she met Ye Yan'er's dark and dark eyes. She didn't dare to refuse and nodded.

Candles were lit in Danqiong Garden early, the doors and windows were closed, and Beibei was nestled in Chu Yunning's arms, listening to the stories of the seven dwarves comfortably.

"Princess, I just saw Luzhu wandering under the corridor with an umbrella." Bi Xiucai was soaked after he went out for a while, not to mention Luzhu's moment.

Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows: "Where is the prince?"

"The prince went out this afternoon and never came back. Could it be that Concubine Ye thought the prince was here, so she sent Luzhu to inquire?"

Bi Xiu was amazed. If this was the case, the green bamboo would be too unlucky, and the umbrella would not be able to cover up the storm.

"Let her go."

Chu Yunning didn't care at all, and Ye Yan'er's face would be sarcastic for a few days. Once she used Hanxiang Pavilion's medicine, she would need to spend expensive medicines to maintain later. She wanted to see Ye Yan'er's confidence and how long she would last.

The next day, the ritual ended, and Chu'er's spiritual position was taken to the Jade Buddha Temple to worship.

After a heavy rain, the Xiao Palace returned to tranquility.

The air after the rain is mixed with a smell of soil.

There are still many small potholes on the ground, and the people under them are cleaning in an orderly manner.

When King Xiao returned to his house, there was still a lot of mud on the hem of his clothes, and his long boots had been soaked in, and he stepped on the dry ground under the corridor to print footprints.

"Where is the concubine?"

King Xiao was the first to visit Ye Yan'er.

Lu Zhu was guarding the door and saw King Xiao, and was surprised and happy: "The concubine is inside, please come in quickly."

Ye Yan'er heard the movement but stopped exposing her face. Her face had not recovered and she still needed to wear a veil.

I haven't been sleeping all night, and the dark blue under my eyes cannot be covered.

"Yan'er."

Ye Yan'er sniffed, put on the veil and turned to look at King Xiao, choking: "Yan'er pays homage to the prince."

"Yan'er, when have you and me become so unfamiliar?"

King Xiao stopped Ye Yan'er and was about to explain where he went last night, but Ye Yan'er was the first to speak: "Where is the prince's freedom to go, Yan'er is just a small concubine and has no right to ask about the prince's private affairs."

A basin of cold water was buckled on top of King Xiao's head.

King Xiao was detained in the palace yesterday. He rushed back as soon as the sky was dawn, but he didn't expect to get such cold words.

Ye Yan'er regretted it when she said it, but she was stubborn and refused to give in. She thought to herself that as long as King Xiao said soft words again, she would forgive King Xiao.

King Xiao slowly stood up: "You are in poor health, don't catch a cold."

"Is the prince going to find the princess again?" Ye Yan'er couldn't help but ask in a jealousy.

King Xiao frowned.

"Prince, the princess still has Beibei. I kept chanting scriptures these days, and Yan'er remembered the child who was not expected to meet..."

Ye Yan'er was afraid, and she was upset that her impulse would annoy King Xiao.

So he gritted his teeth and put away his pride, and had to follow King Xiao's thoughts.

King Xiao sighed when he heard this, bent down and sat down again.

"At that time, the most popular woman said she was also a boy...."

Ye Yan'er cried in a panic. King Xiao hugged the man in his arms with heartache: "It's over, don't cry, crying will ruin my body."

King Xiao did not forget the pain of losing two children in a row during that period.

It’s just that Chu’er saw it alive, so he felt it even more.

"Prince!" Ye Yan'er pounced on King Xiao's arms and cried bitterly.

King Xiao stayed at Ye Yan'er's place for several days.

"Princess, Concubine Ye has obviously fallen out of favor, why has the prince gone there again?" Bi Xiu was puzzled.

"I have been spoiled for so many years, how can I give up just by saying I give up?"

Chu Yunning was not surprised at all.

When the next morning, when King Xiao showed up with Ye Yan'er in his hand, Chu Yunning's appetite was lost.

"Princess." Ye Yan'er saluted Chu Yunning well.

She was wearing a plain long skirt, with only a few small flowers on the hem, and there were very few jewelry on her temples. She had a pair of raindrop-like earrings on her ears, and she was very gentle in her temperament.

Even the eyebrows were soft and the slender figure was thinner than before, as if a gust of wind was blown away.

Chu Yunning held the tea in his hand and took a sip. He moistened his throat before putting down the tea: "I haven't seen Concubine Ye for many days, Concubine Ye has become even thinner. Are people in the big kitchen serving him carelessly?"

"The princess misunderstood. It's because I have a bad appetite and it has nothing to do with the people in the big kitchen. Princess must not punish innocent people because of Yan'er."

Ye Yan'er has regained her usual sarcasm.

After sitting down, King Xiao pulled Ye Yan'er to sit down, with a hint of relief on his face: "It's rare that Yan'er is willing to come out and walk around. The princess in this mansion is well-organized. I am so lucky."

Chu Yunning rolled her eyes. She didn't want to be one of them.

Seeing the two of them having sex with each other, they were completely invisible. They picked up the veil and wiped the corners of their mouths: "Enjoy slowly, I will check the shop outside today. I am very busy, so I won't be there for you."

Just then, someone was sent to the palace to see if the grandfather-in-law was next to the noble man in the palace, and there were a few small eunuchs following him.

Chu Yunning's eyelids suddenly twitched violently.

"Princess Xiao, I am the one who asked you for Ganoderma lucidum according to the will of Concubine Xia."

Concubine Xia?

Chu Yunning has no impression of this person at all, so why do you have the nerve to open your mouth and ask for Ganoderma lucidum?

"Princess, Xia Guixian is newly granted by the emperor and is loved by all. You should take out Ganoderma lucidum and don't make it difficult for the prince to do it."

Ye Yan'er was the first to agree to Chu Yunning: "Don't worry, father-in-law, the princess will never make things difficult for her virtuous princess."

The father-in-law Xuanzhi smiled and said, "Thank you, Concubine Ye."

Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows. Ganoderma lucidum belongs to him. Why did Concubine Ye agree to be a good person for him?

"Princess?" Xuanzhi cleared his throat and reminded: "The Imperial Concubine is still waiting for our house to go back."

This attitude did not require her to pay any money.

A stranger wants her Ganoderma lucidum when she comes out. What big face is?

Chu Yunning glanced at Ye Yan'er's smug smile and instantly guessed something.

"Princess, you won't be reluctant to let go of Ganoderma lucidum, why bother paying attention to money so seriously?"

Ye Yan'er gloated, so she didn't believe Chu Yunning dared to hold on to Ganoderma lucidum.

Then she offended Concubine Xia and had no good results.

Chu Yunning smiled: "It's not that I'm stingy, this Ganoderma lucidum is really rare. I originally planned to offer it to the Queen Mother..."

Ye Yan'er didn't believe this: "Why have you never heard the princess mention that the Ganoderma lucidum has cut a corner for her aunt? How could the princess give the broken one to the queen mother? Is the princess not wanting to give it to the concubine Xia? She said this on purpose?"

After the words came, Xuan Zhi's father-in-law immediately changed his face.

"Is the princess trying to deliberately make things difficult for the imperial concubine?"

Chu Yunning never took the concubine who had never met before and smiled and said, "Dadfather-in-law, this Ganoderma lucidum is divided into three parts, one of which has been sold to the eldest princess, and one part I want to respect the queen mother. No matter how much money the concubine spent to buy Ganoderma lucidum, I will not take any money from the silver I received, and donate it to the national treasury."

"You!" Xuanzhi's father-in-law's face suddenly changed.

Chu Yun would rather not be stupid. The eldest princess spent money, but she gave it to Concubine Xia for free. Isn’t this obviously offending the eldest princess?

"princess....."

"If Concubine Ye wants to respect Concubine Xia, she can pay the money to buy it for Concubine Xia."

Chu Yunning hates people who don’t do things the most and treat others as favors.
