Yuan Qingling reached out and gently pulled Eunuch Mu Ru's sleeve, and said softly: "Eunuch, is it related to Chu Mingcui's case?"
Mu Rugong said: "Princess, don't worry, no matter what it is, the emperor will always ask you what you mean first. If you really object strongly, the emperor will know the appropriateness."
These words made Yuan Qing Ling even more uneasy.
What matters do I need to ask her about? It's not necessary for official matters, unless it's a matter in the government.
As for the affairs in the mansion, the only thing that she had to ask her about and that she might strongly object to was the concubine.
Yuan Qingling couldn't laugh or cry, how long has it lasted? Chu Mingyang just got married, and he took a breath, and now there's another one?
I'm afraid I won't be able to finish this meal.
After entering the palace, Eunuch Mu Ru took him to Yunlong Pavilion.
Yunlong Pavilion is located in the east of the Imperial City, at the junction of the East Palace.
Next to Yunlong Pavilion is Yunlong Hall, the emperor's winter dormitory.
Yunlong Pavilion is three stories high and not very big. There are stairs spiraling up from the outside. Dining is on the second floor.
Man'er and Ah Si were waiting below, while Yuan Qingling followed Eunuch Mu Ru up.
Emperor Ming Yuan has not arrived yet, but the table has been set and two palace ladies are waiting on him.
This place is divided into an outer hall and an inner hall. You eat in the outer hall. The layout is very simple. On the east wall hangs a picture with the words "Five Grains and a Good Harvest", which actually represents the best wishes of Emperor Ming Yuan.
There is a screen on the west side, which leads directly to the inner hall.
On the south side of the stairs, there is a desk on the north side. There are several books on the desk and some of the four treasures of the study. The most eye-catching thing on the desk is a jade lion, which is exquisitely carved and lifelike.
There was a stove in the house and it was very warm. Once the door to the south was closed, no cold wind came in, but the whistling wind outside could be heard.
"Princess, please sit down first. Your Majesty will be here shortly," Eunuch Mu Ru said.
Yuan Qingling sat down, and the palace maid brought her hot water to wash her hands, and then served her a cup of wolfberry and chrysanthemum tea.
Yuan Qingling took a sip. The chrysanthemum flavor was very strong and a bit bitter. The sweetness of the wolfberry could not dispel the bitter taste.
After entering the mouth, it smells very good.
After finishing a cup of tea, I heard footsteps.
Yuan Qingling stood up and stepped aside, waiting to see Emperor Ming Yuan.
The footsteps stopped outside, the door opened, and the cold wind rushed in, causing the tablecloth in the hall to lift up. Yuan Qingling also felt the sudden coldness and shivered violently.
With a flash of bright yellow clothes, Yuan Qingling knelt down and said, "My daughter-in-law is here to see my father."
A gentle and slightly majestic voice came, "Get up!"
Yuan Qing Ling Xie'en stood up and stood aside cautiously.
Emperor Ming Yuan strode over first, raised his robe and sat down. He looked at Yuan Qing Ling and said, "Come and sit!"
Yuan Qing murmured, walked over and sat in the seat just now.
Eunuch Mu Ru stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to pass on the meal?"
"Pass it on!" Emperor Ming Yuan said.
This place is far from the imperial dining room, but the dishes arrived quickly. Yuan Qingling guessed that there was a small kitchen here.
