Chapter 166 Stealing a Home
Yongzheng himself did not admit such a thing at all.
He just thought the morning sunshine was nice and rubbed his waist.
This has nothing to do with whether he is tired or not!
It’s just that the soup I drank last night was delicious. I’ll ask Su Peisheng to prepare more for lunch…
Three days passed in a flash, and Concubine Hua's cold was finally cured.
With her strong physique, it is more difficult for her to get sick than for ordinary people.
The main reason why she has strong blood and vitality.
It's just that she used too much Huanyixiang!
Huanyi incense contains musk and ambergris, among which musk is very effective.
Apart from the disadvantage of not being able to have children.
It also regulates sleep, protects against brain damage, improves learning and memory, strengthens the heart, and enhances immunity...
A lot of blah blah blah.
It can also be anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anti-ulcer, anti-tumor and so on.
Hua Fei used it day and night, immersed in the scent of musk all day long, it would be strange if she was not healthy.
As for the servants like Songzhi, they have been influenced by it for a long time and their physical fitness is much better than that of ordinary people.
Of course, musk has a disadvantage that cannot be ignored.
That is - expensive!
After recuperating, Concubine Hua naturally chose to take revenge immediately.
The main reason she was able to endure for so many days was that she wanted to win the emperor's pity and visit her palace more often.
However, the current emperor is busy with state affairs, and he will definitely come to the harem less often, so there is no need for her to continue pretending.
Since the emperor would not come to the harem, he naturally would not go to Shen Meizhuang's Xianyue Pavilion to support her.
Shen Meizhuang is just a small noblewoman, what can she use to fight against her?
"Go, call our Concubine Shen over here. There are some unclear records in the account books here. Ask her to sort them out again!"
Concubine Hua sneered, her eyes full of hatred.
The girl who dislikes everyone is back!
Songzhi also smiled and nodded impatiently:
"As you command, Madam. I will bring Concubine Shen here!"
So at noon, Shen Meizhuang was invited to Qingliang Palace by Hua Fei's men.
Concubine Hua asked her to sort out the account books, which meant to re-copy everything.
The location is right at the entrance of the main hall.
The scorching sun outside was only one meter away from her, and she could feel the layers of heat waves through her clothes.
Shen Meizhuang only knelt there and copied for a while, but her body was already soaked with sweat.
Although I was prepared to be troubled when I came here.
But when it really happened, she felt that she had overestimated her patience.
"Empress Hua, can I go to another place? This is not the right place to copy the account books."
She couldn't help but speak to Concubine Hua who was sitting inside eating watermelon.
At this moment, Concubine Hua was sitting ten meters away with two ice basins beside her.
There were maids fanning her and massaging her legs, which made her feel very comfortable.
And she was enduring the scorching sun at the door.
Palace maids kept coming in and out from both sides, making her feel humiliated.
Hua Fei seemed not to hear her words.
He waited until Shen Meizhuang called out three times before turning his head.
"Oh, sorry, Lady Shen, I was distracted for a moment."
She thought of an excuse without any sincerity and continued:
"But I think that place is pretty good. At least there is plenty of light."
Shen Meizhuang wanted to say something else, but Concubine Hua interrupted her first.
"Mrs. Shen, please copy the account books quickly. These are urgently needed. It would be bad if you delay."
As she spoke, she picked up another piece of watermelon and put it in her mouth.
Wisps of white smoke came out of the incense burner in the hall, which was the burning incense.
Shen Meizhuang gritted her teeth and continued copying the account book in the sweltering heat.
As time passed, Concubine Hua began to feel drowsy.
Songzhi, who was standing next to her, leaned over and whispered in her ear:
"My lady, I think Concubine Shen can't hold on any longer."
Concubine Hua followed her gaze.
Sure enough, Shen Meizhuang, who was kneeling there, had red cheeks.
Sweat was pouring down his body, as if he had just been fished out of the water.
The way she staggered made people feel that she would fall to the ground at any second.
There are already signs of heat stroke.
Nian Shilan frowned.
"Forget it, let's stop here for today. Get her out of here. Don't let her faint in this Qingliang Palace. It's bad luck!"
If Shen Meizhuang really fainted here, the emperor might blame her if he knew.
Anyway, there is still a long way to go, so there is no need to waste a little time.
Songzhi nodded quickly and walked towards Shen Meizhuang.
"Lady Shen, my queen is tired. Let's stop here for today. I'll have the palace servants deliver these account books to you later."
Shen Meizhuang raised her head with difficulty when she heard that. She had been kneeling here for half an hour, which was equivalent to an hour.
My legs and feet were numb.
Caiyue, who was stopped outside, rushed over to support her, but was stopped by Shen Meizhuang.
She just raised her head and looked straight at Songzhi, saying word by word:
"I will always remember the kindness of your teaching today, Empress Hua!"
This obviously made Concubine Hua hate him.
Song Zhi was stunned at first, then retorted:
"What are you talking about, Lady Shen? Lady Shen suggested some time ago to cancel the green bean soup to relieve the heat. The servants below are also grateful for your kindness!"
She had a mocking expression and spoke in a cute voice as if she was acting coquettishly.
But when Shen Meizhuang heard it, she felt panicked.
She was only here for half an hour, but she was jealous of Concubine Hua who played tricks on her every moment.
And I really want to drink some cool soup to relieve the heat.
And what about those palace servants who worked continuously under the scorching sun?
The daily supply of mung bean soup was cancelled.
They must hate her to death!
Thinking of this, she felt that the palace servants around her looked at her with hatred in their eyes.
He felt too embarrassed to stay here any longer, so he was supported by Caiyue and returned to his Xianyue Pavilion in shame.
In the evening, news spread that the emperor had summoned the imperial physician because of his illness.
Because of this, Concubine Hua couldn't call her over to be punished again.
It also allowed everyone in the harem to witness once again the power of Concubine Hua.
The previous show of weakness was only towards the emperor.
To others, she is still the arrogant Concubine Hua!
Another few days passed.
The emperor has been busy with the affairs of the previous dynasty recently, and has even visited Luo Yao less often.
Of course, although we meet less often, the quality of our interactions has improved.
Every day is all night long!
Basically, every time an emperor goes to the Heavenly Palace, he would be in seclusion for several days.
That is to say, he took nourishing supplements every day, and Luo Yao occasionally gave him some pills to restore his body.
Otherwise he would have died of exhaustion long ago.
Yongzheng's busyness also gave another person the opportunity to steal the house.
You can spend more time here before it gets light.
It was her good sister, Zhen Huan!
