Chapter 495 The One in Yangxin Palace
Chapter 495 The One in Yangxin Palace
The Fourth Master was so busy with so many things that his head was dizzy and he didn't want to stop for lunch at all.
But he was able to endure it, but in fact his subordinates could no longer endure it.
After all, he had eaten a full meal in the morning before coming to discuss matters, while others came from outside the palace, so it took them longer and they were already hungry.
But the Fourth Master would forget to eat and sleep when he was busy, so the people under him couldn't say they were hungry and wanted to eat, so they could only endure it.
Now that Su Peisheng came in and said it was time for dinner, everyone couldn't help but look up at him, with a hint of longing in their eyes.
The Fourth Master originally wanted to let him go, but after seeing everyone's looks, he changed his tone and said, "Serve the food."
He rubbed his eyebrows, knowing that Su Peisheng didn't have the courage to interrupt him, and lunch was probably arranged by Cha Cha.
Feeling the faint emptiness in his stomach, he began to understand why Cha Cha took the risk to enter the palace.
If she hadn't come, he would have really been a little lawless.
Anyway, I am the biggest man in the world now, and no one wants to control me.
While reflecting and eating, the Fourth Master also began to reflect on his political decisions.
Although it was only two days, he did seem to have the final say on matters of state.
No matter what different opinions his subordinates have, he will stick to his own views.
At the beginning, some people argued with him, but after he got angry twice, the ministers became cautious even when expressing their opinions.
He was already a little bit high-spirited, as if handling political affairs was just a way for him to feel good.
The Fourth Master's chopsticks paused for a moment: It seems that once people reach a high position, they really... can't control themselves.
Well, encourage yourself...
Lin Mingyan didn't expect that for the sake of the Fourth Master, she would take care of his three meals a day and ask him to reflect on himself three times a day.
She was already studying the dishes for dinner.
After all, the Fourth Master is very picky. He considers not only filling the stomach but also the taste and nutrition.
She wished she could go back in time and get a nutritionist certification.
Fortunately, I can discuss it with Aunt Liu, so I don’t have to waste so many brain cells.
After finally reaching an agreement, Lin Mingyan stood up and walked out of the hall to relax.
The Fourth Master told her not to go out, but it was impossible for her to stay in the house all the time, otherwise even a good person would go crazy.
Fortunately, although the Hall of Mental Cultivation is not big, it has a courtyard where she can stroll around.
She didn't bring any maid with her, and the Fourth Master was worried about her being alone, so he asked Zhao Lesheng to follow her.
Zhao Lesheng was a flatterer by nature, and now that he had the favor of his superior, of course he followed her closely, wishing to serve her every moment.
Lin Mingyan felt a little disgusted, but in the palace, it was better to be cautious, so she had to endure it.
After a while, she took care of the Fourth Master meticulously, and his health improved significantly.
In the court, the relationship between the emperor and his ministers became much more harmonious.
Many ministers were quite afraid of him at the beginning, fearing that he would become extreme and become a tyrant.
It’s better now. It’s a bit like Emperor Kangxi’s style, but a little stricter than him.
If the Fourth Master had adopted this style as soon as he took office, some people would have objections.
But he was a tyrant at the beginning, but now he is much better and everyone accepts him all of a sudden.
There are even rumors that the Fourth Master's temper was suppressed because he met true love.
After all, there is no impenetrable wall in this world.
Even if the Yangxin Palace was as strong as an iron pipe, the fact that there was a favored maid in the back palace was a rumor that could not be concealed.
Many people in the palace were interested in Lin Mingyan, but she never left the Yangxin Palace, so none of them could touch the corner of her clothes.
After all, there are very few people who have the ability to find the Yangxin Palace.
Others might be curious about the favored maidservant beside the Fourth Master, but for Yaliqi, it was uncomfortable.
She grew up in the love of the Fourth Master and Lin Mingyan. Since she was old enough to understand, there has never been any other woman between her father and mother.
I didn’t understand it when I was a child, but now that I’m this age, of course I understand how precious this feeling is.
Whether at home or outside, she was proud of the love between her parents.
Now Father has ascended the throne and become the Emperor Father.
The first and most painful thing is that he is too busy to care for these children every day like before.
Then, there was this palace maid who appeared out of nowhere.
Yaliqi didn't want to speculate about the emperor with malice. After all, others might not know, but she understood his feelings for her mother.
Maybe this palace maid is just good at her job because of her ability?
She didn't know what to do, but she felt real pain in her heart.
"Sister, aren't you going to sleep yet?" Wu Yunzhu asked with a yawn as she watched her tossing and turning.
Yaliqi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Sister, what do you think of that palace maid..."
After the two sisters entered the palace, they lived together so they could keep each other company.
Wu Yunzhu was stunned for a moment and said, "This is the adults' business. As their daughters, we shouldn't worry about it."
She gave Yaliqi a complicated look and thought that only her sister would worry about such things.
After all, from childhood to adulthood, her mother only taught her to be honest and obedient, and to love her brothers and sisters.
As for the Emperor's favor, even if there was no palace maid, it had nothing to do with my mother and her.
"Oh..." Yaliqi sighed and didn't say anything else to her.
The two people have different positions and experiences, so it is better not to talk about these things.
There was no one to talk to, and she was not allowed to go back to see her mother. Yaliqi gradually became anxious.
One day, while relaxing in the Imperial Garden, she heard someone muttering, "Our Majesty has been on the throne for so long, why hasn't he brought that person into the palace yet?"
"That's right. Didn't I hear that she was the only favorite in the mansion? How could you bear to ignore her for so long?"
"But since she is the second wife, the first wife should be made the first empress first, right?"
"Will it take a while for the next queen to take her place?"
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Who doesn't know that the one in Yangxin Palace is the most favored one?"
"We didn't see with our own eyes whether the previous one was favored or not, but this one in Yangxin Palace is truly the favorite~~"
"That means she's in mourning now. Once that's over, she'll be a favorite concubine too~~"
......
After hearing these words, Yaliqi was so angry that she felt short of breath and wanted to slap these gossipers.
But at this time she also knew that if she made a scene and beat the palace maid, it would be a loss of face for her as a princess.
But she won't let these people go!
She sneered and ordered the eunuch behind her: "Go tie him up and send him to the disciplinary nanny to set some rules!"
It doesn't matter whether these people are just gossiping themselves or someone is plotting against her.
Then all these people’s plans will fail.
She is not an unfavored princess who swallows her anger in silence. The emperor is her support!
