On the first day they met, she felt that she was different from her mother-in-law. She actually did all the small and large chores in the palace herself, and she did it better and better than herself, a palace maid.
Later I found out that my mother-in-law was the only beautiful girl from a commoner family this time, which immediately gave Luzhu, who also came from a poor family, an inexplicable feeling of closeness in her heart.
Lu Pheasant did not put on airs about being a concubine, so the relationship between the two quickly became close. In just two days, they became less like a master and servant than a friend when they got along.
This morning, many concubines went to the Royal Forest Garden together, but Lu Pheasant was the only one who refused to go. This made Lu Zhu anxious.
So many empresses have gone, why is my empress so stubborn?
"I'm not a god."
Lu Pheasant laughed and shook his head: "It will rain, only God knows."
Luzhu's face was shocked and she couldn't help but ask: "Then... why didn't the empress go at that time? If His Majesty really arrived at the Royal Forest Garden and asked about people, only the empress was not there..."
At this time, being gregarious is the greatest stability.
Not to mention anything else, so many concubines are waiting for His Majesty in Yulinyuan, but Lu Pheasant is not there. What if the Emperor thinks that she is lazy or even arrogant?
However, Lu Pheasant smiled softly, leaned against the window, looked at the misty rain curtain, his beautiful brows stretched: "I really hope that your Majesty will go to Yulin Garden and know my name."
"this……"
Luzhu covered her mouth in surprise: "Empress...are you not afraid of being abused by Your Majesty?"
Lu Pheasant shook his head slightly and replied helplessly: "I made snacks with them once that day, and I understood."
"Changsun Wugao is favored by His Majesty because she was the only one who sent snacks to His Majesty on the first day, so her name was known to His Majesty."
"Wu Meiniang was favored because His Majesty only saw her in the Royal Forest Garden that day."
"Ah..." Luzhu's eyes widened.
Lu Pheasant's red lips raised slightly, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and she continued: "They are favored because they are special, and their names are known to His Majesty."
"There are so many people going to the Royal Garden today. Even if His Majesty does go, how can he come to see it? Since everyone is going, the ones who are not going should be the most special."
After hearing these remarks, Lu Zhu was dumbfounded and really didn't know what to say.
In the end, he stuttered and said: "Your Majesty... I wish you the best, Your Majesty."
She was just thinking about how to join the crowd and follow the crowd, but Lu Pheasant was already on the move and wanted to get into His Majesty's eyes.
Lu Pheasant looked out the window at the violent wind and heavy rain rolling in the sky, and shook his head helplessly: "After all, I didn't expect that it would rain today. This is an unforeseen event."
"Your Majesty did not go to the Royal Gardens, so my plan failed again."
…
Dark clouds hang over the capital, and the rain has slowed down a little, not as much as it was at first.
In the bedroom on the third floor of the Palace of Eternal Life, Li Qian hugged Changsun Wugu's waist, blinked, and finally slowly opened his eyes from his sleep.
"Um...is it dark?"
Rain pattered on the window, and a few rays of light filtered in. The room was dark and dark, and only the outline could be seen faintly.
Um?
Li Qian was confused and startled again.
What is this in front of your face?
Soft and warm…
"this……"
Li Qian woke up all of a sudden, sat up with one hand on the bed, and saw Changsun Wugu sleeping in front of him.
Under the dim light coming in from the window, her beautiful face is vaguely visible...
The flower-and-bird skirt on her body is a bit messy, and her black hair is scattered on the back of her head, which gives her a somewhat familiar beauty.
However, the current grandson Wugou was frowning, as if he was about to wake up.
Li Qian felt that he was not the one who woke up due to his rubbing.
The beauty finally opened her eyes in a daze, saw Li Qian staring directly at her, and immediately woke up.
"Your Majesty!" She blushed and was about to sit up.
But Li Qian put his hands on her shoulders and pushed her back.
"Guanyin, just lie down." Li Gan looked at her with a smile.
Changsun Wugou seemed to have thought of something, and his fair face almost turned red with embarrassment.
Even though the room was very dark, Li Qian could clearly see the look on Changsun Wugu's pretty face.
Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, he couldn't help it.
Outside the window, there was the sound of rain pattering. The raindrops hit the bamboo leaves, flower branches, water, and glazed tiles, and a beautiful music sounded.
It was dark in the room, and drizzle was falling outside the window.
I don't know how much time has passed inside, but I only know that the sky outside the window is getting darker, and lights are gradually lighting up everywhere in the palace.
The movement in the room finally slowly stopped.
Li Qian lay on the bed panting slightly, as if he had achieved something.
In fact, this is just an act of revenge.
That night at Feishui Pavilion, although Li Qian was able to calm down and speak, he was still a little nervous at the last minute.
The most fearful thing about this kind of thing is nervousness, so Li Qian's first night ended in a shameful manner.
When I thought about Changsun Wugou at noon yesterday, I hesitated, and this was partly the reason.
It was not until last night that he regained his confidence from Wu Meiniang.
So when Wu Meiniang left at noon today, the first thing Li Qian thought of was his grandson Wugu.
Well, where you fell, you get up.
Now……
Looking at the beauty with scattered black hair in his arms, he felt that he should have successfully gotten up.
…
Dusk is gradually rising, and under the heavy curtain of rain, the lights of thousands of houses in the capital are like stars, swaying in the pattering rain.
Zhao Kuangyin's mansion is located in one of the most valuable areas in the capital, Anrenfang.
The Zhao Mansion, which covers an area of more than 300 acres, covers almost half of Anrenfang. It has continuous courtyards, undulating attics, lush trees, rocks, trees and flowers. It is shrouded in the vast night, and only the vague outline can be seen clearly based on the lights.
The outermost one is the outer wall connected to the square wall, and the gate opens directly on the square wall. This is a treatment only given to princes, nobles and officials of third rank or above.
The red-painted Wutou Gate with a black column barrel on the top and a cloud-patterned scale in the middle can only be used by officials of the sixth rank or above. Through this gate, there are also rooms, stables and other places. , continue walking through a spacious bluestone road, and finally arrive at the "Zhao Mansion" residence.
Deep in the Zhao Mansion, the most central attic.
The rainwater hits the owl tails at the corners of the eaves, drips along the pattern onto the black tiles of Kibi, and then gathers into a stream, falling to the ground.
Several servants in green robes and small hats holding umbrellas gathered around a strong man wearing a black brocade-patterned blouse and hurried over.
Arriving at the door, the strong man Zhao Kuangyi scolded his followers and angrily stepped into the door with moisture all over his body: "Brother, I still haven't found it!"
