My Beloved Concubine Only Wants to Eat Melons

Of course, Yan Shu just thought about it.

This is a big deal, no matter how popular the subject matter is, it's useless if you really write it?

Yu Wenlan breathed a sigh of relief.

I heard her pondering again, 【Let’s write about the gang of ministers and help the emperor clean up the government by the way, it will benefit the country and the people anyway. Think about which one to write tomorrow? Why don't you just write about how his nephew bullied his classmates in the Imperial College last year? 】

Yu Wenlan frowned secretly, what else?

Well, I probably don't need to sleep again tonight

~~

In the court hall on the second day, everyone was surprised to find that Xie Pei, the history of the Southwest Administration, suddenly fell ill.

Tsk, this illness is really strange. After all, two days ago, he was still alive and kicking and insisted on participating in a writing script. Why did he suddenly become ill?

Two days later, the Metropolitan Procuratorate played him in court, and it turned out to be related to a theft case many years ago.

It turned out that more than 20 years ago, this person had stolen his partner's silver on the way to the exam. Fortunately, after high school, he repeatedly used his power to persecute the sufferer, causing him to fail the exam repeatedly.

"..."

It was only then that everyone realized that the book "The Man Who Greedy for Money Died Under the Flowers" that was quite popular on the market a few days ago was actually written by him.

Tsk tsk tsk In addition to stealing his partner's silver back then, this person also loves shopping in brothels?

I just don't know if I have Hualiu disease...

In the midst of speculation, another news came - after being investigated by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, his subordinates and his subordinates pointed out that this person really loves looking for flowers and asking willows, and he once fought with a businessman on the banks of the Qinhuai River for the oiran. Hire someone to beat the opponent to maim...

Everyone, "..."

He actually met up with the previous "The Evil Woman Controls the Merry Man" again...

Tsk tsk tsk, it turns out that this person's character is so bad! It deserves to be sacrificed to the new edict!

Half a month later, Xie Pei, the governor of the Southwest General Administration, was dismissed from office and added the crime of stealing other people's money back then, and received 20 slaps.

However, because his family members did not know about it, the punishment did not involve them.

However, Xie Pei had a fall and was hit with twenty boards. One can imagine the tragedy. It is said that he was carried home in the end.

And after his scandals were exposed one by one, his wife was also angry, and she ignored him with her virtuous attitude in the past, and let him fend for himself.

It really complied with the ending in the script.

But in this way, it also makes people more and more curious, who is the "Xiaoyaozi" who wrote the storybook?

How can you know all the old things from many years ago?

~~

As the first "big case" in the beginning of the year, after all this, it will be the Lantern Festival.

In the morning, the king was reading the memorial in the imperial study, when Fu Hai came in to report, "Your Majesty, the lanterns for Quanzhou's tribute have arrived."

This is a ceremony of the Shangyuan Festival in the palace.

Every year, the folks will pay tribute to the palace with lanterns, implying the prosperity of the country and the people, and the king will respectively dedicate these lanterns to the queen mother in Ci'an Palace, and reward the concubines in the palaces, implying that the heavenly family and the people will be happy together.

Just as Fu Hai finished speaking, Yu Wenlan suddenly remembered something.

It seems that there is a girl who likes lanterns very much.

An ordinary revolving lantern can make her happy for several days.

He then said, "Send it to the Ganlu Hall first, and ask Concubine Yi to pick a few."

Fu Hai should be, and the empress Yipin really has His Majesty's preference, so she wants to go outside.

But before he walked a few steps, he heard the king say, "Slow down."

Fu Hai hurriedly stopped in his tracks, "The servant is here."

Is it possible that there is another reward?

Yu Wenlan just changed his mind temporarily, and said, "Let's ask Yibi to come and choose."

Fu Hai was taken aback for a moment—call Yibi to come to Qianming Palace to pick up lanterns?

That's right, that's what Yu Wenlan said.

—He felt that although Yan Shu's ability was good, she didn't know how to pick and choose, and she even let her know about other people's bed affairs...

It's not good.

So if there is a chance, let her come out for a walk more, and divert her attention.

Others don't know his good intentions.

Fu Hai was stunned for a moment, and then realized - Your Majesty missed the beauty, so he took the opportunity to call her over to meet her?

Hey, we just broke up this morning, this relationship is really gluey.

So he hurriedly answered yes again, and happily ran to the Ganlu Hall.

Yu Wenlan, "..."

However, although…

Cough, does he seem so obvious now?

~~

At that time Yan Shu was bored in the palace.

After laying that Xie Pei on the ground, she happily relaxed for a few days, and she actually felt a little lazy.

Just as he was fishing with a pen, he saw Fu Hai coming.

"My servant greets Madam Yipin. The lanterns for the Lantern Festival that Quanzhou Mansion paid tribute to has just arrived. Your Majesty invites Madam to go to Qianming Palace to choose."

Yan Shu was a little surprised, "Tell me to go to Qianming Palace to choose?"

Fu Hai nodded quickly, "That's right, before the distribution is made, His Majesty asked the empress to choose the one she likes first."

Yan Shu's eyes lit up, it's so kind, she likes lanterns the most!

Anyway, I'm bored now, so I quickly changed my clothes and went to Qianming Palace.

When he entered Qianming's palace gate, he saw Yu Wenlan standing in the corridor.

Tall and straight, with indigo blue sleeves and knees, and black hair with a high purple gold crown, he looks even more handsome.

The beauty makes people feel happy, Yan Shu stepped forward to salute, "The concubine sees Your Majesty."

Yu Wenlan hummed and looked her over.

I saw her double-faced brocade jacket and horse-faced skirt, as handsome as the winter jasmine on the branches of early spring.

He was also in a happy mood, so he said in a gentle voice, "This is a tribute lantern from Quanzhou. It has always been famous. I asked them to put it here. You can choose two that you like."

In fact, Yan Shu had just seen it as soon as she entered the palace gate. Dozens of lanterns were hanging under the eaves, colorful and colorful, not to mention how beautiful they are.

She was happy to accept it, and picked it up.

Well, I don't know if I don't look at it, it turns out that this batch of lanterns is even better!

Especially if they are from other places, the style is different from those made in the palace.

In addition to revolving horse lanterns, lotus lanterns, etc., there are actually boneless lanterns that are directly pieced together with hard paper, and various landscape patterns are painted on them, which are very beautiful.

There is also a hollow filament lamp with eight transparent sides. Seeing Yan Shu's strange face, the little **** hurriedly lit the candles in it for her to take a look. It turned out that the whole lamp is transparent, like a small moon.

She couldn't help clapping her hands, "Wow, this is good!"

Yu Wenlan asked, "Then you want this?"

Yan Shu smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Your Majesty! But the concubine only needs one."

This kind of filament lamp is rare, and you can tell its value at a glance, and you have to spare a few of them to present to the Queen Mother, she dare not compete with the Queen Mother.

"Give me that lotus lantern again."

She wanted it last time, but she didn't have time to speak.

Yu Wenlan nodded and asked the little **** to pick it for her.

At this moment, Fu Hai reported again, "Your Majesty, Mr. Zou is asking to see you."

Lord Zou?

Yan Shu's eyes lit up, could it be the scholar of the Hanlin Academy with excellent taste who wrote the script for her?

But Yu Wenlan said, "Call him in."

Fu Hai should be, busy to spread the word.

Not long after, Zou Mozhong came in. Seeing that Yan Shu was also there, he hurriedly saluted, "I will see Your Majesty, and I will see Your Majesty Yi."

Yan Shu nodded, but Yu Wenlan asked, "Is the matter of the Imperial College settled?"

——Guozijian recruits freshmen every spring. In the past, Wei Ruzhang, a scholar of the Wenhua Pavilion, took the lead. Since Wei Ruzhang was dismissed from office because of kidnapping civilians a few years ago, this year this job has fallen on the head of the Imperial Academy.

Zou Mozhong hurriedly said, "After discussing with the Imperial Academy, I plan to select 40 people for the first time, from the officials of the court and princes and dukes' mansions; 60 people from the second selection, from the outstanding students selected from various places; About 50 candidates will be selected from the failed candidates. I wonder what your Majesty would like?"

Yu Wenlan said, "The quota for the first batch will be reduced by another ten people, and filled in the second batch."

Most of the children from these aristocratic families are ignorant, they only count on this opportunity to enter the Imperial College to fool around, even like the nephew of Kang Guangliang, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, bullying the common people in the Imperial College, corrupting the atmosphere.

That being the case, what do you want them to do?

Zou Mozhong is busy.

But the king added, "Even the remaining thirty people must be selected strictly, and they must not be let in based on favoritism and power. Otherwise, if any act of favoritism is found out, they will be charged with dereliction of duty."

Zou Mozhong hurriedly said with a serious face, "Your Majesty's words are very true. This will make the selection more tense, and it will be easier to urge everyone to study hard and become good talents."

Yu Wenlan nodded, "It's good that Zou Qing understands, Guozijian represents the face of the court, and also cultivates pillars for the court, it must not be a joke."

Zou Mozhong nodded repeatedly.

In this way, the big event is over.

Zou Mozhong paused, but suddenly asked, "By the way, Your Majesty, I haven't seen the new draft of Young Master Xiaoyao in the past few days. Could it be that he is seriously ill?"

Um? Happy son?

Yan Shu accurately captured her pen name, so she hurriedly pricked up her ears.

Yu Wenlan glanced at her and said, "No, she has basically recovered."

Xueshi Zou asked again, "Since that's the case, why haven't you seen any new works of it in the past few days?"

this...

Yan Shu felt guilty.

Yu Wenlan glanced at her again from the corner of her eye, and said with a smile, "Probably something else, I'm very busy."

Yan Shu blushed a little.

Tsk, immersed in the joy of beating opponents these two days, it's a bit too indulgent, and I haven't been able to write a new story for several days.

But Xueshi Zou yelled, and said very anxiously, "I don't know what he's busy with? Your Majesty doesn't know, everyone is waiting outside to read his new script."

As soon as the words fell, Yan Shu couldn't help but asked, "Your Majesty Zou, are you saying that the readers outside are waiting for Mr. Xiaoyao's words?"

Zou Mozhong hurriedly said, "I don't dare to speak nonsense, my lady doesn't know, these days there are many readers waiting at the door of the bookstore every morning, not for anything else, just to read the new storybook of this young master Xiaoyao, some people can't wait Come, I can’t even eat, I can’t sleep at night, I’m scratching my ears and cheeks impatiently.”

Yan Shu, "!!"

It turned out that she was so needed!

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Before he could say anything, she saw her excitedly say to Zou Mo, "Tell everyone not to worry, the new script will come out soon."

Zou Mozhong was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked, "Could it be that the empress also knows this Young Master Xiaoyao?"

"I know, I'm very familiar," Yan Shu smiled, "Don't worry, I'll rush her for you."

Xueshi Zou was overjoyed, and quickly thanked, "Then I will thank you, Madam, on behalf of the readers."

"You are Welcome."

Yan Shu waved her hands and smiled generously.

Yu Wenlan said, "If Zou Qing has nothing else to do, let's go."

Zou Mozhong answered in a hurry, and left Qianming Palace.

Finally, there were no outsiders, Yu Wenlan looked at Yan Shu, and was about to speak, but she saw that she hurriedly saluted to him first, "The concubine will leave first."

Then go out.

Yu Wenlan grabbed her arm and frowned, "What are you going back for?"

Seeing that it was almost noon, he planned to have lunch with her.

Unexpectedly, Yan Shu said anxiously, "Didn't your Majesty hear that, there are so many readers waiting for my concubine, and my concubine should hurry back and write the script!"

Yu Wenlan, "... so what if you wait? There is no need to be so eager."

So what?

Yan Shu immediately raised her eyebrows and said, "It's like a minister is in a hurry to report something to you, how can you wait?"

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Really can't wait.

Going to listen to her, she clicked her tongue again, [As a person who writes a storybook, aren't the readers just her parents? How can I ask the fathers of the funders to wait so long! 】

Yu Wenlan, "???"

Funder... Dad?

What is the meaning of this?

However, before he could say anything else, he saw her salute to him with the lantern she had chosen, and hurried out.

~~

When she got back to Ganlu Hall, Yan Shu wrote furiously, and even ate lunch casually.

Tsk, when she heard that she was so needed by the readers, she was suddenly inspired and tireless, and wrote this writing until the afternoon.

Until Liandong came to remind her, "Master, there is a Shangyuan banquet tonight, you have to get dressed, otherwise it will be too late."

Shangyuan banquet?

It was only then that Yan Shu remembered this incident, so she stopped writing and said, "Okay."

—This is her first banquet after being promoted to the throne, and it is such an important day as the Lantern Festival. She really needs to dress up well, otherwise, won't she lose the emperor's face?

So after a lot of hard work by Lian Dong, Lian Xin and others, she wore a cherry-colored shoulder-length cross-neck gown sent by the Shangyi Supervisor a few days ago, with delicate chrysanthemum patterns embroidered on it, her black hair combed into a slanted bun, and a plum flower hairpin with many treasures on it. , looks bright and luxurious.

It was already dusk outside the window, Liandong brought her a velvet cloak again, and after putting it on, Yan Shu went out.

But unfortunately, when I came all the way to Rouyi Hall, I saw Concubine Zhou getting off the sedan chair.

Yan Shu hurriedly stopped and saluted, "See Concubine Zhou."

A concubine without a title is really a bit awkward to call.

Moreover, in the past, she must have been followed by An Bin, but today she is alone, and she seems to have lost a lot of prestige.

Concubine Zhou only looked at her sideways, and said with a strange smile, "This is not Li Guiyi, oh no, it should be called Yibi now, you are very conspicuously dressed today, I remember, didn't you like plain clothes in the past? "

Yan Shu pretended not to hear the sarcasm in the words, she just smirked and said, "I don't dare, the concubine is less than one ten-thousandth of the empress, the empress is the most conspicuous."

conspicuous?

Concubine Zhou felt that this was wrong, and was about to attack, but saw another sedan chair stopped in front of her.

The maid beside the sedan chair hurriedly raised the curtain, and immediately after that, one person got off the sedan chair.

It was none other than Concubine Ning who had her feet grounded at the ice play banquet a month ago.

Oh, by the way, it was the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, and today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, exactly one month, and she lifted the ban.

Yan Shu had no choice but to salute again, "See Concubine Ning."

There is no way, this person is also higher than her, if she is not polite, she will only be caught in the wrong place.

Concubine Ning ignored her, but looked at Concubine Zhou first.

After being grounded for a whole month, she finally figured it out. At that time, it turned out that this woman asked someone to send a message to her, so she would use her as a knife.

Afterwards, she was imprisoned in the palace for a whole month. She even killed Concubine Li and implicated her aunt, the eldest princess!

I don't know how many times I have stabbed the other party with a knife. At this time, Concubine Ning raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Hey, this is not the imperial concubine, oh no, it is Concubine Zhou, long time no see."

What Concubine Zhou cares most about now is that others mention her demotion. When she heard this, her face turned cold, and she said, "Didn't you be banned, today is the ban lifted?"

Concubine Ning tried her best to suppress her anger, and still smiled, "Yeah, I haven't come out for a while, so many things happened? Now you and I are at the same level? Then I don't have to salute. I remember you are half younger than me I'm old, I'll call you Concubine Zhou's younger sister."

Concubine Zhou gave her a blank look, and said, "I don't need to talk about sisters with you. It's better to be careful before lifting the ban after listening to my advice. Don't offend Her Majesty the Queen Mother again and be imprisoned again."

As he spoke, he stepped up the steps and entered the hall.

"you…"

Concubine Ning was a step too late, so she had to swallow the words, and then she thought of Yanshu, looked her over, and said, "Li Guiyi, oh, no, it's Concubine Yi now. How about it?"

Yan Shu hurriedly said, "The concubine is much better now, thank you for your concern."

But the other party said again, "Although you are injured, you are not at a loss if you can have a concubine."

As soon as these words came out, Liandong who was beside Yanshu immediately paused, Concubine Ning was saying that the master used the wound to change positions?

This is really too much, who would risk their life just to change places!

Yan Shu laughed and said, "Actually, the concubine did it out of instinct. Fortunately, she only suffered a small injury. The fact that she was promoted to the throne is due to the great grace of the emperor. However, the concubine believes that if the empress was present at that time, she would definitely do the same. "

Concubine Ning paused, could this be mocking her for being grounded a few days ago?

Just as they were about to attack, they saw the imperial chariot approaching suddenly, and after it came to a complete stop, the emperor came down from above.

Yu Wenlan was dressed in a black dragon robe, with a stern face and knife-like eyes. Concubine Ning hurriedly bowed her head and saluted, "See Your Majesty."

Yan Shu followed suit.

Yu Wenlan only said, "It's cold outside, what are you doing here if you don't enter the palace?"

Concubine Ning didn't dare to say anything, she could only say yes, and went in with Sheng Jia.

After entering the hall, they took their seats one after another.

Not long after, the Queen Mother also arrived, and Concubine An was by her side.

Concubine Zhou was taken aback, and immediately threw a sharp eye knife.

Okay, so she said that this **** actually dared to disobey her?

It turned out that he climbed up to the Queen Mother!

Concubine Ning smiled ironically.

This stupid woman, now that everyone has betrayed her relatives, and even her own aunt, the Queen Mother, has abandoned her, what right does she have to be arrogant?

After everyone saluted the queen mother, the eldest princess and her son-in-law Zhao Chengwen entered the palace.

—Because of the assassination on the third day of the Lunar New Year, the palace has been very cautious recently, and the banquet for the emperor and ministers on the Shangyuan Festival was also canceled. Except for the empress dowager and concubine, only the eldest princess and the eldest princess were invited to the banquet tonight.

The aura of the eldest princess is still strong. Looking around, no one in the audience can compare to her. When she came close, she saluted the emperor and the queen mother. Blessings and health."

Good guy, he just didn't pay attention to the concubines in the palace.

In contrast, the son-in-law beside her was as taciturn as ever, just saluted, like a shy little daughter-in-law next to the man.

The queen mother nodded, "There is no need to be too polite, we are all from our own family, please take your seat."

The eldest princess should be, so she brought her son-in-law into the seat.

Looking at Concubine Ning from the corner of her eye, she nodded slightly.

For a while, Concubine Ning gained a lot of confidence.

— That idiot Concubine Zhou lost the queen mother, but she still has the aunt of the eldest princess, so she was the one who won.

Now that everyone is here, the dinner party will begin.

Everyone first toasted the queen mother and the king in turn. The queen mother sighed, "The new year will be over in a blink of an eye. What happened in the past half month is really scary. I hope you cherish the present and abide by your duties."

Everyone responded in unison, and while the Jiaofang Secretary played music and dance, they ate vegetables and drank wine one after another.

After eating for a while, the queen mother said to Yu Wenlan, "Spring is here, and tributes are being paid from all over the country. Masters and slaves are changing their spring clothes. Everything in the palace is complicated. Ai's family wanted to find someone to help take a look at the Internal Affairs Bureau, so they called them Something went wrong."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. Who is the queen mother trying to promote?

Concubine Zhou has obviously been given up, and Concubine Ning belongs to the Eldest Princess, and the Queen Mother absolutely cannot use her. In this case, Concubine An is the only one left?

Unexpectedly, the eldest princess immediately said, "If the mother doesn't dislike it, I can recommend someone to you. Concubine Ning is thoughtful and meticulous, so she can take on this important task."

Hearing this, Yan Shu, who was eating vegetables, was tsk tsk in her heart, the eldest princess is too tough, the queen mother obviously wanted to promote Concubine An, but she recommended Concubine Ning, is this trying to force the queen mother to agree?

But the queen mother is not a vegetarian, so it is definitely impossible to agree to her.

Sure enough, the queen mother smiled and said, "You have been outside the palace for a long time, and it is not as real as what I see in the palace. In terms of meticulousness, Concubine An is better. The Ai family thinks, let her do it."

The meaning of these words is obvious - how can the water splashed by the eldest princess's married daughter have the right to interfere with the affairs of the palace?

Yan Shu, who was quietly watching the excitement, called her a good guy. Sure enough, Jiang is old and hot. After the Queen Mother said this, Princess Changchang and Concubine Ning would not come to Taiwan.

Unexpectedly, the eldest princess did not give up and said again, "Concubine An is good, but for the sake of her position..."

Before he finished speaking, the Queen Mother laughed again, "The position is only temporary, let alone just helping to take care of the Internal Affairs Bureau. They are all masters. Does the Internal Affairs Bureau still rely on others to order dishes?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Laishun, the head of the Internal Affairs Bureau who was waiting at the side, immediately knelt down and said, "I dare not."

The queen mother nodded and said with a smile, "That is to say, just ask Concubine An to come. If she doesn't do well, just change it."

Although the voice is gentle, the meaning is extremely strong.

After finishing the words, Concubine An quickly got up and said, "The concubine is afraid, because she is afraid that she will be clumsy and unable to bear the important responsibility. "

The Empress Dowager said, "Don't disappoint the Ai Family's trust, just do it well."

This is what An Pin should be, and she sat back happily.

Concubine Ning was of course upset.

However, she did not let go of this opportunity to stab her old enemy.

So he smiled and said to Concubine An, "Concubine An used to follow Concubine Zhou often, she must have learned a lot of good skills, and she must be qualified for this job."

Hearing this, Concubine An paused, but Concubine Zhou was about to explode.

The bitch! How dare you mock her like that!

So she also smiled and said, "Concubine Ning is not bad, by the way, who used to be with you? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I can't remember clearly."

…

Yan Shu quietly hid aside while eating vegetables and watching the battle.

— fight, fight!

She is getting bored, why not watch this multi-party melee and see who is more skilled, maybe she can learn from experience and write a storybook in the future.

Yu Wenlan, who was bored and quietly paid attention to her, "???"

Can you think of writing in a storybook?

Are you going to go crazy?

Unexpectedly, she still couldn't forget to eat the food, while quietly watching the excitement, she ate the hot lamb chops that had just been served.

【Well, this lamb chops is very tasty. Take a bite and it will be rich in fat, leaving a fragrance on your lips and teeth;】

[This night fragrant jade soup is also delicious and delicious, very relieves greasy. Especially this Wan Xiangyu is very precious, I don't know how many meals I can eat in a year, if I miss this village, I won't have this shop. 】

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Sure enough, nothing can affect her appetite.

That's natural.

For Yanshu, watching the excitement while eating delicious food is the most joy in the world!

And while she was watching the fun, she didn't forget to comment—

The queen mother and the eldest princess just got up, the queen mother must be more powerful, the queen mother is resourceful, and the eldest princess is brave but not scheming.

Concubine Zhou and Concubine Ning were very different, one was "punished, released".

However, the Queen Mother has given up on Concubine Zhou, but the eldest princess is still helping Concubine Ning. In this regard, Concubine Ning is more fortunate.

Just as she was thinking this way, she heard the system snort, 【Concubine Ning is not reliable, her uncle's son-in-law has kept several rooms outside. If the eldest princess knows about this, it will basically be over. 】

Yan Shu, [? ? ? 】

What an interesting melon!
