Chapter 149 Different
Obviously, Xie Yu did not expect that he had lost face and stood here, but Lin Junxue refused him entry on the grounds of illness.
For the first time in his life, Xie Yu felt what it meant to be helpless.
It was the first time that he was rejected by the concubines in the harem. This feeling was indescribable.
Danzhen looked at him carefully, and seeing Xie Yu's increasingly gloomy gaze, she could only pray inwardly that the emperor would not really get angry.
She felt that the Queen's action was extremely bold and frightening. If the Emperor was really angry, the Queen would be finished.
Danzhen saw that the time was almost right and hurried forward.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is indeed not feeling well today. During the day, Imperial Concubine Xi also came and said she wanted to pay her respects. Unfortunately, at that time, Your Majesty had just drunk some nourishing medicine and was about to take a nap, so she did not see Imperial Concubine Xi. In fact, Your Majesty has been feeling uneasy recently, so she often wakes up from her sleep and is listless during the day. Please understand our Majesty."
Danzhen repeated everything Lin Junxue had taught her.
Sure enough, when Xie Yu heard that Lin Junxue was upset and often woke up from her sleep, her angry expression changed instantly. She looked a little more worried, and her anger also dissipated.
Gao Chengdu was amazed. Does the emperor really care about the queen?
Otherwise, if the Empress dared to have two palace maids block the door outside and not let the Emperor in, and the Emperor got angry, this would be a serious crime.
But the emperor is not angry now? It shocked him.
Danzhen and Qiaoxin secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the change in Xie Yu's expression.
According to what the Empress said, it seems that she has the Emperor under her control.
Next second
Xie Yu said in a deep voice, "Since the Queen is not feeling well, I will not go in. Let the Queen take good care of herself. I am busy with the affairs of the former dynasty recently. I will come to Zhonghe Palace to see her. Let her relax and take good care of herself. I will come again another day."
The last sentence clearly showed that Xie Yu was explaining that he did not come to Zhonghe Palace because he was angry, but because he was busy with work.
Even Xie Yu himself didn't realize that he was explaining to Lin Junxue.
Gao Cheng's eyes flashed with shock.
The fact that the Emperor is willing to come today has already given the Empress a way out. These words are basically an act of surrender to the Empress!
The emperor has an iron fist and is cold and ruthless. He always pampers the concubines in the harem when he is happy, and never takes them seriously when he is unhappy. When has he ever explained this to any of the concubines?
Now the Emperor was actually explaining to the Empress why he had not set foot in Zhonghe Palace for two months.
He had to re-examine the Queen's position in the Emperor's heart. It seemed that he had to be more careful in his future assignments in Zhonghe Palace.
Qiao Xin said, "Your Majesty's words will surely comfort our queen. The queen said that the roads are slippery after dark and there is heavy snow today. Please pay more attention to those who serve the emperor."
Xie Yu was still very touched by the concern that Lin Junxue expressed.
After Xie Yu took Gao Cheng away, Qiao Xin and Dan Zhen asked Xiao Gongzi and Xiao Xizi to close the palace gate and returned to the bedroom.
bedroom
Lin Junxue was sewing a birthday gift for Xie Yu, a nightgown that she had sewn by hand, every stitch and thread showing her craftsmanship.
However, Lin Junxue's embroidery skills have not improved at all in the past two months.
how to say?
She had some talent in playing the piano, poetry, calligraphy and painting, but when it came to embroidery, Lin Junxue's talent and efforts were a mess.
Lin Junxue also gave up and just gave up. After all, the intention was there and the craftsmanship was not important.
Now the pajamas are finished except for the embroidery on the corners.
Lin Junxue is very satisfied with her craftsmanship
However, when Guyu, Danzhen and the other two looked at the pajamas sewn by Lin Junxue, they could only describe it with the word "horrible".
Danzhen walked in and patted her chest. "My queen, I was really scared just now. You don't know that when the emperor heard that you didn't let him in, his face was so ugly. I was really scared."
Qiao Xin smiled aside
"My queen, it seems that you have won the bet by using two months to make the emperor bow his head and submit. When has the emperor ever been so submissive to the concubines in the harem? I have never seen or heard of it, but what Danzhen said just now is right. Even I am a little frightened. The emperor's anger is really scary."
Guyu was threading the needle for Lin Junxue and passed it to her. Lin Junxue took it.
She smiled lightly and said calmly, "This time, I have indeed won, but it is not a complete victory. In the next ten days, the emperor will definitely come to Zhonghe Palace again, but the door of Zhonghe Palace will not be allowed to be opened before the emperor's birthday."
Dan Zhen was stunned and asked in confusion, "Your Majesty, since the emperor has already surrendered to you and found a way out, why do you have to keep talking to him? If the emperor comes again in the next ten days and you don't let him in, will he really be angry?"
Guyu didn't quite understand why this happened, only Qiaoxin smiled and nodded.
"You guys? Your Majesty's trick is brilliant. If tomorrow, the Emperor comes again, and Your Majesty opens the palace gate and lets Him in, then in His Majesty's mind, Your Majesty is just being petty, and I'm afraid he won't be very sincere towards Your Majesty in the future. But if Your Majesty can hold on for a few days, His Majesty's tolerance towards Your Majesty will far exceed that of other concubines in the harem. I guess what Your Majesty is asking for is not only His Majesty's sincerity, but also His Majesty's tolerance towards You, which is different from that of other concubines, and is unique."
Among the three, only Qiao Xin saw through Lin Junxue's purpose.
Lin Junxue curled her lips and nodded faintly.
"Qiao Xin has won my heart, and this is indeed my goal. The emperor favors and indulges the concubines in the harem, but the degree of indulgence and favor he shows to different concubines is different. If I want to protect my father and brother, and the Lin family in the future, I must not be like an ordinary concubine, just begging for illusory favor. I must gradually break through the emperor's bottom line, so that I can finally find a way out for the Lin family."
Lin Junxue finished embroidering the last stroke and nodded with satisfaction.
Guyu and Danzhen picked it up and showed it
Lin Junxue stood up and walked forward, her eyes full of appreciation for her own craftsmanship.
Qiao Xin and the other two looked at the thing on the pajamas, not knowing whether it was a mandarin duck or a goose, and turned their heads away in unison.
Can the Queen really give this thing to the Emperor on his birthday? Will he really not be disliked or get angry?
Lin Junxue said softly, "As expected, my craftsmanship is unparalleled in the world."
The three of them nodded. "Unparalleled in the world, unparalleled in the world!"
Lin Junxue told Danzhen to put it away carefully and take it out on Xie Yu’s birthday.
