This is not the first time that Zhao Yurou has asked this question. She is obviously the most noble woman in the harem.
But he gave up all the honors to others, provided all the conveniences to others, and lived like a beggar.
"Didn't I come to help you? We should do our own thing by ourselves. We shouldn't let too many people know about the construction of the Cold Palace, so we should finish it honestly by ourselves!"
Feng Lingyu tied her clothes with a belt and quickly climbed up to the roof to repair it with her.
"Queen, please come down quickly! I will repair it!"
The accompanying young eunuch was scared to death and hurriedly called the people above to come down.
"Eunuch Li, don't be afraid. It'll be fine, just give me the tools properly!"
Sunflower stood aside and told him to stop talking, as this would disturb Feng Lingyu and the others.
"Sunflower, if something goes wrong with your Majesty, the Emperor will chop off the heads of my entire family!"
Eunuch Li was completely frightened. It was incredible that his queen, who looked so gentle and elegant, could actually repair the roof.
"It's okay. As long as you don't make a fuss, the Queen will not be in danger!"
Sunflower was worried before, but over time she got used to it. Feng Lingyu is a very capable person.
Small things like repairing the roof are too easy for her.
"Sunflower, what on earth is our Queen? She is so brave!
I remember that the Queen was a girl who was afraid of mosquitoes before. How come she suddenly knew how to repair the roof?
If you climb so high, what will you do if you fall down?"
Eunuch Li was already in disarray. He was sent by the emperor to take care of the empress, and he would report every move of the empress to the emperor.
If this matter is revealed today, the Emperor will definitely blame himself. If he does not reveal it, the Emperor will blame himself even if he knows it.
It's so hard to be a slave these days, especially when you have such an uneasy master.
"Eunuch Li, have you admitted the wrong person? When did our queen become afraid of mosquitoes?
Our queen has always been very brave, so don’t make a fuss and quickly hand her the tools!"
Sunflower helplessly shook her head, denying that her young lady was really timid before. No matter what happened before, the current Empress could never become what she was before.
And she likes the current empress very much, and she doesn't want the current empress to change back to the submissive and unreasonable person she was before.
"Mother, please be careful!" Eunuch Li was very timid, his legs were shaking even when he handed tools to others.
"I said Eunuch Li, I really don't understand. Even if you cut the parts, at least you are still a man. There is nothing to be afraid of when climbing high. Can you not waste time?"
Zhao Yurou shouted to him impatiently, asking him to hurry up and pass the tiles up.
"The two empresses are protected by gods. This slave is just a mediocre person. I definitely dare not compare with the two empresses."
Eunuch Li carefully laid the tiles, and several people formed an assembly line. The sunflowers were on the ground, Eunuch Li was on the ladder, and the two ladies were on the roof of the house.
There are also several young eunuchs on the roof of another house. They are repairing a very dilapidated roof. The former owner of this house was Concubine Yu.
At this time, Concubine Yu was playing outside. Ever since she learned from Zhao Yurou that the King Yujia was on his own expedition, she had become very well-behaved. Except for playing time, she spent most of her time in the palace waiting for Feng Lingyu to come back.
"How are the two concubines doing lately?"
Feng Lingyu was already exhausted and sweating profusely. Even in this winter, both of them were already covered in sweat.
Zhao Yurou arranged the tiles quickly and said while working, "Concubine Ru is always in good spirits and sings operas when she is upset.
Concubine Jade’s condition has also improved. Ever since I told her that her king was going to conquer the country in person, she rarely cries and the time she spends awake is getting longer and longer!"
"I have already told the emperor about you, and the emperor asked me to make my own decision. I decided to take you out of the cold palace, let you return to the Sakura Palace, and continue to be your concubine.
But I’m also worried that Leng Gong will have no one to take care of her, and there will be those girls who are completely crazy!”
Feng Lingyu regarded these lunatics as unsupervised children. No matter where she went, she would always think about them.
These crazy people are not without emotions. When they are sober, they will be moved, painful, and regretful when they learn how good the Queen is to them.
It's a pity, no matter what, they can't leave here.
Those who have made mistakes should bear corresponding responsibility for the crimes they committed.
"Sakura Palace and Leng Palace are next to each other. I can come back every day. Queen, I am just worried. If I return to Sakura Palace, what will Yu Nishang do if she wants to kill me?"
Zhao Yurou asked softly in her ear when she was laying tiles.
"Then we will treat others the same way they are treated. Anyway, now, I will never let you be wronged!
See those crazy bitches? If we don’t fight back, that’s probably what will happen to us!”
Feng Lingyu pointed at a bunch of crazy ladies in the yard next door, jumping around in shabby clothes, running around, making noises, and crying loudly.
Some people here are really crazy, some are pretending to be crazy, and some just want to escape reality and let themselves stay with these crazy people.
Everyone has their own thoughts, even crazy people, they are still people with a heart.
"I just think these women are so pitiful. Is it worth fighting for a man? It's not worth it at all!
My father and my mother have been in love with each other all their lives. My mother is the only woman for my father. I envy their relationship so much!"
Zhao Yurou shook her head helplessly. She was indeed scared when she saw those crazy people, fearing that it would affect her future.
Talking about a lifelong love relationship with the emperor is simply ridiculous. Zhao Yurou has never considered it as an imaginary partner, and she has never even thought about having something happen with the emperor.
Due to her family's helplessness, she really had no choice.
"That's what we call feelings. It's just nonsense, but these crazy women are also people with true love.
I quite admire their courage, they can sacrifice themselves for love, no matter what!"
There was a faint smile on Feng Lingyu's lips. It was hard to tell whether she was mocking these crazy women or whether she really admired them.
"These people have a pretty good life. At least they met the Queen, who provided them with a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
Without the Queen, these people would not be able to survive this winter."
Zhao Yurou lowered her tone when she said this, looked around and said,
