A quick journey starting from Wu Dalang

Chapter 164: Being a Perfect Man in My Fair Princess (9)

Seeing Xia Yuhe being so gentle even when she refused, Concubine Ling's eyes turned red: "Sister Fucha"

Xia Yuhe didn't react at first that she was being called, but looking at Concubine Ling's eyes, she felt that she seemed to be looking at others through her, just like the emperor that night.

"Sister Ling Fei is crying like this?" Xia Yuhe wiped away Ling Fei's tears in dissatisfaction: "This beauty is beautiful when she cries, but if He Jing sees it, she will inevitably laugh at you, her mother."

Looking at Xia Yuhe's every move and smile, Concubine Ling's eyes became even redder, and she finally couldn't help but save Xia Yuhe. Xia Yuhe was a little surprised, but her years of politeness made her hug Concubine Ling and comfort her softly.

After a while, Concubine Ling let go of Xia Yuhe: "It was my sister who offended me, please don't blame me, Sister Imperial Concubine."

"It's okay, it's just that your eyes are weird, Concubine Ling, who are you looking at through me?" Xia Yuhe wanted to know the truth, she didn't need feelings that came out of nowhere.

"Do you know Empress Xiaoxian?" Concubine Ling told Xia Yuhe about how she was taught by Empress Xiaoxian when she first entered the palace and how good she was.

"It's a pity that such a beautiful woman had a tragic fate. Empress Xiaoxian was such a good person, but she passed away at such a young age." When she said this, Concubine Ling was already crying.

Xia Yuhe didn't feel anything, as she was not familiar with the other party. At the moment, she was suspected to be the other party's stand-in. Because of this, many old people in the palace hid in the corner and watched her.

"It's getting late. My sister should take Hejing back home. My sister should pack up early too. I'm afraid the emperor will come to visit you in the evening." Concubine Ling smiled ambiguously and left with her daughter.

Xia Yuhe stared at Concubine Ling's receding back in a trance. The maid beside her couldn't help but say, "It seems like Concubine Ling is giving you a warning."

"Everyone can see how deeply the emperor loves the late queen. The emperor will not find a woman who looks like the late queen to insult her. I, who has a similar temperament, am the best." Xia Yuhe knew this better than anyone else.

If it was Xia Yuhe who had just met the emperor, she might have been blinded by the emperor's performance. But now Xia Yuhe has been immersed in the business world for many years and has earned a home with a group of old foxes. This is enough to explain everything.

"Is Concubine Ling trying to show goodwill?"

"No, she is testing me, testing whether I would be a better choice for her." Concubine Ling has no son but only favor, but the emperor is not young anymore, so Concubine Ling naturally has to make plans for herself.

Her previous choice was Yongqi, but seeing that Yongqi was no longer close to her, and Yongjue was gradually showing up in public, Concubine Ling of course had to test whether Xia Yuhe was reliable.

The most important point is that Xia Yuhe is the daughter of Fucha. Just because of this point, Yongjue has a higher chance of winning than Yongqi. No matter what, Yongjue will be the one who benefits from the emperor's great favor.

Even if he is not the next emperor, the next emperor will also use Yongjue. This is the fact that Concubine Ling saw. Based on her experience of accompanying the emperor to mourn the late queen every day, Yongjue has a great chance of winning.

Yongqi didn't know what was going on yet. He was still playing shuttlecock with his good sister and sweetheart. The three of them all had some martial arts skills, and the game was very enjoyable to watch.

The only drawback is that when Ziwei exerts a little force, the shuttlecock becomes a little out of control. Ziwei is very depressed: "Oh, I don't want to play anymore."

"Ah? If you don't want to play, then I won't play either." Xiaoyanzi was very concerned about Ziwei's mood. She didn't know why, but she always felt an inexplicable guilt towards Ziwei.

After all, Chuxiu Palace is the residence of concubines. People like Benjamin and Erkang brothers cannot come. Erkang naturally doesn't know that the woman he has been thinking about for a long time is the current Princess He'an.

After observing for a long time, Madam Rong finally confirmed that there was no sign of what the Queen was worried about happening, so the Queen withdrew Madam Rong.

Xia Yuhe came from outside the palace, so naturally she had to learn the palace rules in the palace. The same was true for Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei. In comparison, Shiyi had more to learn.

Yongqi, the good brother, was also very enthusiastic in teaching his younger siblings. Concubine Ling also sent two reliable maids over, which was considered a sign of her loyalty to Xia Yuhe.

The emperor came to Chuxiu Palace from time to time and occasionally summoned Xia Yuhe to sleep with him, but most of the time he just chatted with Xia Yuhe. Xia Yuhe didn't care about these. After all, she was already the emperor's concubine, so why should she care so much?

The days passed uneventfully, without any disturbances at all. Xia Yuhe was very uncomfortable with such calmness, but the queen was very satisfied. Such a peaceful harem just showed that she was good at governance.

But Yongqi was very distressed. Everyone knew that Xiaoyanzi was not his biological sister, but Xiaoyanzi had lost her previous memories and stubbornly believed that she was the emperor's daughter.

Yongqi desperately wanted Xiaoyanzi to recover her memory, so he tried various ways to consult the imperial physicians, until one of the young physicians became really impatient and gave Yongqi a bad idea.

"I heard that patients suffering from amnesia can only recover their memories in a familiar environment. Fifth Prince, why not give it a try?" This was just a casual remark to deal with Yongqi, but Yongqi took it seriously.

In Chuxiu Palace, Yongqi followed Ziwei with a conflicted look on his face.

"Fifth brother, just tell me what you want to say. If you keep following me around like this, I won't even remember the etiquette that Nanny taught me." Ziwei rolled her eyes gracefully.

"I remember you said that you and He Shu met outside the palace?"

"Yes, why do you ask this, Brother Wu?"

"Then do you know if she has any other family or friends? Or do you know where she lived before?" Yongqi spoke quickly.

"I do know this, but why are you asking this, Fifth Brother? Do you want to send Xiaoyanzi back?" In desperation, Ziwei revealed Xiaoyanzi's real name.

"Xiaoyanzi? Is that her name? She is indeed a girl as free as Xiaoyanzi," Yongqi was still sighing.

Ziwei rolled her eyes, she really couldn't stand it. Her younger brother was better. He didn't indulge in love affairs and only focused on studying.

Shiyi, who is devoted to study, is trying every means to catch up with Benjamin. As a foreigner, he will surely be able to return home easily. What Shiyi wants is that Benjamin will bring a few of Shiyi's people with him when he returns home.

"Sixth Prince, I've said it many times that I have no plans to return to China for the time being," Benjamin refused bluntly.

"I'm not here to talk about this this time. I want to show you something." Shi Yi said, and threw a puppet pill into Benjamin's mouth.

"Persuasion is useless, so don't I have to use some tricks?" If you don't want the country to perish directly, the best way is to reform directly, and you need to cultivate a group of pioneers at the beginning.
