Aunt Jiuhuang looked at the strange thing protruding from Meng Xinzhu's collar, and reached out to touch it, "Daughter Xinzhu, what is this? Isn't it the wearable thing you messed with before?"
"Yes, this is the sweater I mentioned before. The winter here is too cold, but luckily I have it to keep me warm. Otherwise, I don't know how I would get through it. Sometimes I really admire you for wearing so little.
come over."
Aunt Jiuhuang touched Meng Xinzhu's cheek lovingly, "Girl, you have lost a lot of weight during the time you were out."
"No, my daughter is pregnant."
Uncle Jiuhuang also smiled and said: "Now you know it's not easy to live outside, right? Let's see if you still run out?"
Everyone couldn't help but be stunned and looked at Meng Xinzhu. The imperial concubine had already solved the matter of Yu Ling coming to Yuedu. Will she still stay?
Hongde Longqiu also looked at her. Now everyone knew her dual identity as the imperial concubine and Master Zhu. Coupled with the wonderful performance in the hall today, it was destined that she would never leave the palace like before.
Because Yu Ling wanted to marry Yue because she lost to her, she would naturally not give up the opportunity to defeat her again. She would not be ignorant of her leaving the palace, and there might be another turmoil. Now, whether it is for the Yue Kingdom or for the
For his own sake, he couldn't let her out of the palace as easily as before. But what did she think?
Meng Xinzhu just shrugged and clapped her hands, "By the way, I heard from Xiao Chenzi that there is a wonderful scene in the palace - the frozen Kangding Lake."
Hongde Longqiu nodded, "Kangding Lake has begun to freeze now, and it is estimated that it will be completely frozen before long."
"It's great. I finally have the opportunity to see a beautiful scenery. It's really rare to see such a big lake frozen."
Hongde Longhao looked at the emperor brother and stood up, "It's getting late. The emperor brother and the emperor's wife have been tired for a day. It's time to rest early. Let's go back first. If you have anything to say, it's not too late to talk tomorrow.
."
After sending everyone out of the Bamboo Garden, a gust of wind passed by, and Meng Xinzhu couldn't help but shiver. Hongde Longqiu hurriedly took off his cloak and put it on for her. She smiled, "The moon is much colder than Yezhou, look.
I still need to add more equipment."
"If you need anything, just tell Xiao Mingzi directly. He is the most familiar in the palace and can help you a lot."
"Thank you, then I won't be polite."
Hongde Longqiu smiled and walked into the bedroom with her. Meng Xinzhu returned to the dressing table, took off the phoenix and took off her makeup. Hongde Longqiu sat on the Arhat bed and looked at her with a smile.
"I'll stay here tonight, do you have no objection?"
"I just saw that the emperor didn't go with them, so I already knew that you were going to stay here." Meng Xinzhu sat at the table, wiping the makeup on her face, "Who calls you the emperor? I can't let you lose face, right?
And since I have chosen to come back, I have made all the mental preparations. However, I believe that the emperor will continue to abide by the agreement, so it is okay."
Hongde Longqiu stared at her and raised his eyebrows, "You are really different now than before."
"It's no different. I still won't help the emperor change his clothes. If the emperor dares to mess around, I will still kick him."
"Hahaha! Then I'll do it myself." Seeing her yawning several times, he couldn't help but frown, "You've slept all afternoon, are you still sleepy?"
"It's not sleepy, but rather tired. It's really tiring to travel."
Hongde Longqiu stroked her shoulders and said, "You have worked hard during this period, please rest early." He turned sideways, looked at Meng Xinzhu who had closed her eyes, and reached out to gently stroke her hair scattered on the pillow.
."Xinzhu, thank you for coming back!"
"Since you want to thank me, please do me a few favors." Meng Xinzhu opened her eyes and turned to look at him.
"You said, as long as I can do it." Seeing her smile, Hong Delong Qiu raised his eyebrows, "Why do you look so evil in your smile now? What are you planning?"
"Hahaha!" Meng Xinzhu smoothed her hair away from her eyes, "It's not that evil! I just want to go to school." Looking at Hongde Longqiu's strange expression, she smiled, "Although I am an adult, I am still
I can only be regarded as a primary school student here at best. I need to study hard, learn to see things from this perspective of time and space, and learn how to integrate here. The teachers in the school should teach literature and poetry, and I read a lot of them on weekdays, but
That is all understood using my own way of thinking. I want to listen to the explanations of the teachers here, understand your thinking mode, and then learn to use this thinking mode to understand, maybe I can get different things."
Hongde Longqiu squinted his eyes and stared at her for a long time, "There is a school specially opened for princes and princesses in the palace. Just go and listen to it and see if you can get what you want."
"Thank you then!"
"It seems that you have really decided to stay."
"Didn't I already say it in the imperial garden during the day? The story has already begun and there is no way to interrupt it. No matter what the ending is, you can only end it by yourself." Meng Xinzhu lay flat and looked at the bed curtain, "Yes.
Yes, I still have something to ask for your help. You should not stay in Zhuyuan often in the future."
"I can't agree to this!"
"Listen to me, the women in this palace, whether they are excellent or outstanding, whether they are simple or complicated, are all just for this man like you. They are jealous of each other, and they will get back too much if they fight openly or secretly. These things
Whether women are the ones you want to marry or the palace system orders you to marry, they have become your responsibility. The emperor is their heaven, their land, their everything. As their man, shouldn’t you be nicer to them?
What?" Meng Xinzhu blinked, "And you are the emperor. The woman you marry is not only for love, but also for the consolidation of your imperial power. The background behind those concubines is what you need to win over. I believe you agree.
Being good to them is also good to yourself. Of course, I don’t agree with the emperor’s equal treatment of all concubines. Going to the concubine without love is also a kind of harm to them. But for those concubines who have been doted on by you, you should
Take care of their feelings. The life of women in the palace is very monotonous. All the focus revolves around you, the emperor, and your love is their greatest happiness."
"Why can't you focus on me? Why don't you regard my love as the greatest happiness?"
"Because I come from a foreign land, my outlook on life, world view, and values are different from theirs. But if I think about it carefully, if I had chosen to be the same as them, I might have become one of the common people in the palace, and it might be a little easier than it is now."
