Chapter 61 Uneasy

He could see that even though the emperor had not lighted the lamps in the Bamboo Garden for a month, his love for Concubine Bamboo had not diminished. After all, she was the first concubine who asked the emperor to take the trouble to arrange a trip out of the palace to relax.

If she had evil intentions, the emperor would be in too much danger. But if she had no other purpose, based on her talk about food in Xinghua Tower today, he should congratulate the emperor on getting a good wife.

Meng Xinzhu stood in front of the window. Her wrist had been carefully treated by her godmother, and she had taken her exclusive secret recipe for the wound. The problem should not be serious, and it would only take some time to recover.

The night sky today is covered with dark clouds, the weather is very hot and muggy, and it looks like it's going to rain.

Meng Xinzhu suddenly sighed. She was an alien in time and space. She had no one she knew or things she was familiar with. She lived under the identity of others and was restricted from freedom. A feeling of loneliness arose spontaneously.

She has never been afraid of loneliness and loneliness, because she is a Scorpio. It is said that no Scorpio is not lonely, but Scorpio is not afraid, but can enjoy the taste of it. Treat loneliness as a jar of old wine and treat loneliness as a cup of coffee.

, she knew that one day loneliness would also lead to intoxication, and loneliness would also lead to deep sleep.

Lightning flashed across the sky, rolling thunder followed, and finally it rained.

Meng Xinzhu stretched her hand out of the window, raindrops fell on her hand, and the water splashed and wet her sleeves.

Meng Xinzhu suddenly smiled, turned and left the room. She stood in the courtyard, raising her head and letting the rain hit her face. She didn't want to care if anyone said she was crazy, let alone whether she was in the palace.

She is no longer Zhu Fei, she is just Meng Xinzhu, and now she just wants to do whatever she wants. She wants to use this cool rain to wash away her long-term depression.

During the period of confinement in Zhuyuan, Hongde Longqiu was more diligent in government affairs and basically reviewed the memorials every day. After the morning session, Hongde Longqiu returned to the imperial study and picked up several memorials placed on the table.

Eunuch Ming served a cup of tea. He looked at the emperor and hesitated whether to tell the emperor what he had heard.

"Xiao Mingzi, why are you so reluctant to say anything?" Hongde Longqiu was still looking at the memorial.

"Back to the Emperor, I heard some news and I don't know how to tell it."

"what news?"

"It's about the Bamboo Concubine." Hongde Longqiu and Xiao Zhao turned to look at him at the same time. Eunuch Ming was startled and hurriedly knelt down.

"What's up?"

"I heard that my wife hasn't even gotten up yet."

Hongde Longqiu looked at Eunuch Ming. As far as he knew, Concubine Zhu was probably the most energetic concubine in the palace. When most of the concubines were still sleeping, she had already gotten up to practice "cutting watermelon".

He couldn't help but smile. It turned out that this woman also stayed in bed. Did she run too hard yesterday?

"Go to Bamboo Garden."

When they arrived at Zhuyuan, only Eunuch Chen and the other three were there to pick him up. Hongde and Longqiu said as they walked: "Where is your master?"

"Back to the emperor, your Majesty has not gotten up yet."

"Oh? Didn't you call her?"

Eunuch Chen paused and said, "I don't dare to disturb your Majesty. Your Majesty slept too late last night."

Hongde Longqiu stopped and turned to look at Eunuch Chen, "Sleeping late? What did she do?"

"Last night, last night..."

"Say it!"

"Go back to the emperor, your Majesty was caught in the rain last night."

Hongde Longqiu couldn't help but open his eyes. He was soaked in the rain all night? "You are so brave, how can you let your empress get wet in the rain all night! Don't you know how to dissuade her?"

Eunuch Chen knelt on the ground and said, "Go back to the emperor. I tried to persuade you, but your Majesty didn't listen!"

Hong Delong Qiu clasped his hands behind his back and said, "You just let her have gonorrhea if she doesn't listen? How do you serve her?" After that, he ignored Eunuch Chen who was kneeling on the ground and turned around and walked into the room.

When they came to her room, Meng Xinzhu was still sleeping. Hongde Longqiu sat gently on the edge of the bed and reached out to touch her forehead. There was no feeling of overheating. He breathed out softly.

This woman actually went out to soak in the rain all night. No concubine is as unpredictable as her. Hongde Longqiu shook his head and wanted to tuck her into bed, but he noticed her bandaged wrists.

Is she injured? Hongde Longqiu was startled. He couldn't help but remember that he had held her wrist very hard yesterday in his painful anger. Did he hurt her?

Hongde Longqiu stretched out his hand to hold Meng Xinzhu's wrist, wanting to see how injured she was, but he accidentally pulled on her injury.

Meng Xinzhu was sleeping soundly, but was awakened by a pain in her hand. She frowned and buried her head in the pillow, put her injured hand on her chest, and held it gently with her other hand. After a while, she opened her eyes.

When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was Hong Delong Qiu sitting beside the bed.

"Why is the emperor here?" Meng Xinzhu propped up her body and prepared to get up.

Hongde Longqiu still looked at her wrist, "Did you tell the imperial doctor?"

"No, my godmother is a famous doctor and has already dealt with it."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"It's not necessary. It's just a minor injury. How can we disturb the emperor? In that case, wouldn't I be too ignorant?" Meng Xinzhu said lightly, stood up and picked up the robe beside the pillow to put on.

"My hand is injured, don't force it, let me do it." Hongde Longqiu stepped forward to take the robe.

"I don't dare. I can't afford to let the emperor wear the clothes." Meng Xinzhu walked a few steps and put on the clothes herself.

Hongde Longqiu frowned and retracted his half-stretched hand, "Are you angry with me? I'm angry that I hurt you, I'm angry that I misunderstood you, so you didn't care about your body and went to soak in the rain all night?"

"Does your Majesty know what Qi is? I already said it that day by Kangding Lake. Qi is the kind of thing that is exhaled from others' mouths but received in your own mouth. I am a person who knows the way of 'eating'.

How could it be so bad? Don't worry, I will not use other people's faults to punish myself." Meng Xinzhu washed her face with water and said with a smile, "As for getting wet in the rain, it has always been my hobby, I like it.

The feeling of raindrops hitting your face. As the saying goes, 'where the rain and dew are wet, the sweetness and bitterness are both strong and strong'. I, the bamboo, also need to see the rain to wash away the haze on my body. So getting wet in the rain is beneficial but not harmful to me.

."

Hongde Longqiu couldn't help but laugh, "Are you Bamboo?"

Meng Xinzhu turned around and looked at him, "When you are, you are, and when you are not, you are not. As for what other people think, I don't want to care about it, and I can't care about it." After that, she took the book, turned around and left the room.

Hongde Longqiu narrowed his eyes, the concubine's stubbornness was rising again.
