Chapter 31: The Worried Good Son
Every eunuch and maid in the Jingyang Palace was overjoyed, and they were all talking about today's reward from Emperor Wanli in surprise.
Today, Emperor Wanli actually used the example of a noble concubine to reward Jingyang Palace with ice cream supplies. In the eyes of the eunuchs and maids, this was a sign that Jingyang Palace was favored.
When Concubine Gong received these rewards in the afternoon, she was inexplicably surprised and extremely happy. However, she clearly understood that the reason why Emperor Wanli was able to increase the rewards to Jingyang Palace was because of Zhu Changluo.
In the past six months, Zhu Changluo has given so many surprises to Concubine Gong that Concubine Gong is overwhelmed. Now the actual master in Jingyang Palace has gradually become Zhu Changluo, a five-year-old child, and Jingyang
On the contrary, everyone in the palace did not think it was absurd or inappropriate, and even felt that it should be like this.
"My concubine, you are not dressed like this."
Concubine Gong was so nervous now that she even became cautious in her body movements. Concubine Gong never expected that the first thing Zhu Changluo did when she came back was to ask her to dress up.
Now that Concubine Gong was finally dressed up, Zhu Changluo said that this would not work. This made Concubine Gong a little panicked.
Concubine Gong said in a low voice: "If my mother is not going to go, you should send it to your father. You were the one who made this ice cream."
Zhu Changluo said: "This is not possible. It makes sense for me to let you go. It is so late at night for a prince to go to my father's palace. I am sure it is most appropriate for my mother and concubine to go."
Concubine Gong worriedly said: "But..."
"Nothing to worry about."
"I'm afraid..."
"There's nothing to be afraid of."
Zhu Changluo refuted Concubine Gong's guilty conscience word by word. Now that the arrow is ready, how can he back down?
Zhu Changluo said to Jin Chuan and Yin Chuan who were waiting at the side: "You guys go find some more clothes. Try to find clothes that are thinner and more transparent."
After hearing Zhu Changluo's words, Concubine Gong blushed and didn't know what to say to her five-year-old child. He really knew too much.
Then, Zhu Changluo walked up to Concubine Gong. He looked at the hairpins on Concubine Gong's head and felt that the styles of these hairpins were too old, and Concubine Gong's current hairstyle didn't seem particularly suitable.
Concubine Gong's face is oval-shaped. Because of all the hard work over the years, she now looks thinner and thinner. If she puts all her hair on top of her head, the size of her head will look very uncoordinated.
So, Zhu Changluo directly took action and plucked all the hairpin flowers that had been decorated with great effort in Concubine Gong's hair.
Concubine Gong hurriedly stopped her, "Don't take it off."
Zhu Changluo said: "The more hairpin flowers you bring, the better. The key is to be suitable. Listen to me."
Concubine Gong let Zhu Changluo fiddle with her hair accessories in a nervous mood.
Zhu Changluo found a light-colored jade hairpin and made a knot on Concubine Gong's long hair at the back. Then he used several silver hairpins to pin the hair on Concubine Gong's forehead, and then tied the hair on the side of her
I made a slightly relaxed bang and pulled it behind my ears.
Finally, Zhu Changluo said to Concubine Gong: "Concubine, please wipe off the rouge on your face, apply only a little light powder, then apply a little blush on your cheeks, and then change the color of the lipstick to a lighter color.
of pink.”
Concubine Gong followed Zhu Changluo's instructions and started to prepare her makeup again. After Concubine Gong put her makeup back on, Zhu Changluo looked at Concubine Gong who looked slightly panicked and felt that this was how it was.
At this time Jin Chuan and Yin Chuan came in, and they brought several gauze clothes. Zhu Changluo chose the color, and Zhu Changluo fell in love with a set of light cyan palace clothes lined with off-white underwear.
Zhu Changluo said: "Mother, this dress suits you. You can try it on."
Concubine Gong took the clothes from Jin Chuai Yin Chuan and went into the inner room to change. When she appeared in front of Zhu Changluo again, Zhu Changluo nodded with satisfaction, "That's about it."
But Concubine Gong felt that the gauze dress was a bit see-through, which made her feel a little panicked. Concubine Gong asked unconfidently: "Is this appropriate, Chang Luo?"
Zhu Changluo smiled and said: "Of course it's appropriate. The mother-in-law is naturally beautiful. Of course, she needs to be carefully sculpted to bring out the beauty of the mother-in-law."
Concubine Gong was still a little panicked and felt something was wrong.
But under Zhu Changluo's stubbornness, she had no choice but to listen to her son's mercy.
At this time, Wang An also came over cautiously and respectfully. Wang An said: "Little Master, Madam, the newly made ice cream has been frozen."
Zhu Changluo said: "I know, just wait for a while, it's still early."
Wang An stepped back carefully. At this time, Concubine Gong said: "It's already Xu Shi (seven o'clock in the evening), it's getting late."
Zhu Changluo said: "Don't be anxious, concubine. It's summer now and it gets dark very late. It's not too late to go until half past midnight. The sky will be just right at that time and it will get dark."
Concubine Gong could only follow Zhu Changluo's arrangement and wait anxiously for dark to fall.
When the time was close, Zhu Changluo said: "My mother and concubine can go now."
At this time, Concubine Gong immediately became nervous again. She had not seen Emperor Wanli for several years. When she thought about going to Qianqing Palace to see Emperor Wanli later, Concubine Gong became nervous inside, for fear that she would make a mistake in her errand and cause irritation. He killed Emperor Wanli and ruined his son's future.
Seeing Concubine Gong's nervous look, Zhu Changluo smiled comfortingly and said: "Don't worry, it's okay, Concubine. My father is actually quite soft-hearted. You don't have to be afraid. Just do whatever you want."
Concubine Gong said yes, and then went to Qianqing Palace with Wang An holding the small box.
Looking at Concubine Gong's leaving figure, Zhu Changluo sighed, "Concubine, I have broken my heart for you, please don't let all my hard work go down!"
After arriving at Qianqing Palace, Emperor Wanli saw Concubine Gong coming. For a moment, he didn't even recognize who this pitiful beauty in front of him was. He thought she might be a palace maid from Jingyang Palace.
At this moment, Concubine Gong said a Wanfu blessing to Emperor Wanli, "I, my concubine, see you, Your Majesty."
The word "concubine" suddenly awakened Emperor Wanli's memory. He looked at Concubine Gong in disbelief, "Are you Concubine Gong?"
Concubine Gong said in a soft voice: "It is my concubine."
Emperor Wanli looked at Concubine Gong. He had never thought that Concubine Gong would look like this. She looked so charming that I felt pity for her. She looked like the yandere sister Lin from the popular novel "A Dream of Red Mansions" by Empress Dowager Li. Same.
Emperor Wanli's eyes softened a lot when he looked at Concubine Gong, and he said: "Get up. Come closer to me."
Concubine Gong carefully approached Emperor Wanli, quietly raised her head and glanced at her familiar yet unfamiliar husband, and quickly lowered her head shyly.
Emperor Wanli looked at Concubine Gong who was approaching, saw her soft appearance, and saw her graceful body under the gauze, and he suddenly became interested. He reached out and grabbed Concubine Gong, and directly pulled Concubine Gong away. Pulled into his arms.
Concubine Gong lay in panic in Emperor Wanli's arms, her delicate body stiff, and her heart was extremely nervous. She looked at Emperor Wanli with a pair of clear and pitiful eyes. The two looked at each other, and the ambiguous and hot atmosphere gradually began to fill the air.
When the eunuchs and maids serving in the Qianqing Palace saw this situation, they all consciously exited the palace, closed the door, and waited at the door.
