Chapter 82 Which Lady Sent It?
In the palace, after the emperor had finished his meal, he remembered the pomegranates Xuan Zheng had sent him in the afternoon, and said, "Where are the pomegranates that bastard sent? Bring them here so I can have a taste."
"Yes."
The chief eunuch, Eunuch Wu, had one peeled and brought over, and then he placed the rest on the table, smiling and flattering, "Your Majesty, look, these pomegranates are round and plump, and so beautifully red. You can tell at a glance that they were carefully selected by the prince. They must be the best ones on the tree."
The emperor felt very comfortable after hearing this, "That bastard is quite caring and has grown up. He is no longer the heartless fool he was when he was young."
Eunuch Wu took the glass plate presented by the young eunuch and said, "Your Majesty, what you said is true. Even when the prince was a child, he always thought of you. Whenever he had something delicious or fun, he would eagerly send it to me. If the prince knew what you said, he would definitely be angry."
The emperor glanced at him and said, "As long as you don't tell him, he won't know. If he comes to make trouble with me one day, I will be the first one to not forgive you."
"The servant dare not."
The emperor was eating the sweet pomegranates when he suddenly asked in confusion, "Didn't that bastard think pomegranates were troublesome to eat and didn't want to eat them? Why did he want to go to the palace to pick pomegranates today?"
Eunuch Wu was silent for a moment. He did not dare to say that Prince Linhuai did it for the young master of the Lin family, but he could not make up a story to deceive the emperor. He could only pick and choose and say, "The prince is thinking about you and wants to make you happy."
The emperor liked to hear this, and his beard stood up with laughter. He bared his teeth and laughed foolishly, "Finally, my love for that brat was not in vain. When he came back from Yangzhou, he shouted for people to find the most delicious pomegranate variety. I think he has grown up after that experience and understands my painstaking efforts. He thought that I like pomegranates, so he insisted on planting pomegranate trees."
Eunuch Wu: "...Your Majesty is right."
No matter what, as long as the emperor is happy, their lives will be better.
Eunuch Wu vaguely heard someone talking outside the hall, so he winked and asked the young eunuch to go out and take a look.
Outside the palace, Jia Yuanchun was particularly eye-catching in her palace dress. She had a bright, elegant, dignified and beautiful appearance. She had been studying since childhood, so her temperament was beyond the reach of ordinary women.
Whenever the imperial concubine traveled, she would always be surrounded by a large crowd. The palace maids and eunuchs behind Jia Yuanchun all kept quiet and held their breath, not daring to make the slightest sound.
The maidservant beside Jia Yuanchun was the most popular one in her palace besides Baoqin. Her name was Fuqiu. Although she looked like a pretty girl, her slightly arrogant and conceited expression ruined her looks.
"How dare you! This is the Imperial Concubine. How many of you have the guts to stop her? If the Emperor finds out, he will skin you alive." Once Fuqiu gained power, she wished she could step on everyone under her feet to show off her power and let them all know that she, Aunt Fuqiu, was not someone to be trifled with.
The guards in front of the palace did not show any expression. They did not bow their heads and beg for mercy as Fuqiu had expected. She could not help but feel a little disappointed. The leader had a very serious expression and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive us. We are only following your orders. I hope Your Majesty will not embarrass us."
Fuqiu shouted: "Who do you think you are? How dare you..."
Jia Yuanchun opened her red lips slightly, "Fuqiu, please don't be rude."
Fuqiu stamped her feet and said, "My queen, they are ungrateful. You are a precious person, and you have been standing here for so long, but you haven't even seen the emperor. This is really unreasonable."
Jia Yuanchun raised her hand to ask her to step back, but she saw the palace door opened. Her eyes lit up and she was about to step forward, but she saw that it was only a young eunuch who came out, and she stopped in disappointment.
After the young eunuch found out what happened, he trotted back in.
Fuqiu said proudly to the wooden guards: "Just wait, the emperor will summon our queen soon. If you are still not afraid of death, I will call you uncle."
The guards did not move at all and did not take the little palace maid's words seriously. They were only following orders and had to act without orders. No matter how you look at it, they were not wrong.
What's more, they are not unknown people. Whoever can stand here must have a family that is stronger than the Rongguo Mansion, the mother's family of the imperial concubine. A little palace maid dares to shout in front of them. She is really ignorant.
To put it bluntly, this little palace maid was just taking advantage of the power of others, and they didn't bother to bother with her.
"Fuqiu, shut up." Jia Yuanchun regretted bringing this girl out. She had thought that Fuqiu had a sharp tongue and could fight for her when she was not able to speak. But she did not expect that Fuqiu was such a person without tact. She said everything that should and should not be said. She was really brainless.
Fuqiu felt a little aggrieved, and subconsciously wanted to say that she did this for the Empress, but Jia Yuanchun's murderous look blocked her words.
After the young eunuch returned, he whispered a few words in Eunuch Wu's ear and explained the situation outside in detail.
Eunuch Wu waved his hand and asked him to leave.
"Your Majesty, the Consort Xian De is outside asking for an audience, what do you think?"
"Xian De Fei?" The emperor was in a good mood at the moment and wanted to show off to others, so he said, "Let her in."
"Yes."
After receiving the order from outside, Jia Yuanchun was allowed in. Fuqiu hurriedly helped her up the stairs. When passing by several guards, Fuqiu raised her head higher than the sky. The guards were speechless. If it was not the wrong timing, they all wanted to kick this ignorant little palace maid.
After Jia Yuanchun entered the hall, the emperor was anxious to show her the pomegranates. He did not even bother to wait for others to salute and simply exempted her from the ceremony and asked her to come and sit down.
Jia Yuanchun was secretly happy, thinking that the emperor still had her in his heart, otherwise he would not feel sorry for her and would not even skip the formalities.
Fuqiu seemed to be so proud that she was even more proud than the peacock in the imperial garden. Her queen was now the apple of the emperor's eye. That guy was so tactless that he dared to stop her queen. He was really courting death.
Jia Yuanchun gently stroked Fuqiu's hand, walked forward and sat down, "Your Majesty..."
"Let's not talk about anything else for now," the emperor pointed to the plate of red pomegranates and said to Jia Yuanchun with a smile, "Take a look at this plate of pomegranates first."
Jia Yuanchun was completely confused. She had just been made a concubine. Shouldn't the emperor be treating her with great care? Why didn't he say something personal but instead asked her to look at some pomegranates?
It's just a pomegranate, nothing special about it.
Jia Yuanchun thought that the pomegranate was just a nuisance, but she was not stupid. The emperor loved it so much that it might have been given to her by other concubines. She just had not heard which one the emperor favored recently.
Could it be that the emperor has taken a fancy to another palace maid, but has not yet canonized her?
The emperor became impatient when he saw that she hadn't spoken for a long time. "I'm asking you a question."
When Jia Yuanchun was a palace maid, she was very afraid of the emperor. Although she has been made a concubine and become the emperor's woman, her fear has not diminished in the slightest.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. This pomegranate is really pleasing to the eye. I was so fascinated by it that I forgot to reply." Her words obviously touched the emperor's heart. Seeing his smile, Jia Yuanchun couldn't help but say something sour, "I just don't know which lady gave it to you, and why your Majesty cherishes it so much."
