Rebirth of the Phoenix

Stubborn

"Shuang'er--" Ye Beihuang seemed to feel her breath, turned his head, showed a happy smile on his face, and waved to her, "Come on, your favorite rose is blooming, it's beautiful, you

I must like it."

Ying Rushuang smiled slightly, walked to him and pulled his hand: "I heard that you got up very early today, why don't you take a rest for a while?"

Ye Beihuang said: "It is the most beautiful to see roses in the morning, and I want to see them with you."

Ying Rushuang looked at the huge, long flower wall in front of her, red, yellow, white, purple and pink, with different sizes and shades, but the flowers were fresh and beautiful, in line with the early summer season, vigorous and lively and extremely beautiful.

"I remember your favorite pink flowers." Ye Beihuang murmured, picking a yellow rose, blooming to the right rose, don't go to her hair, and looking at her, "It's so beautiful, so many years ago

It’s past, Shuang'er, you haven’t changed at all, but I’m old…”

"Your Majesty, you are not old." Ying Rushuang stroked the rose in her hair and said angrily, "We are indeed older, but your style is not inferior to that of the past. I don't allow you to say that to yourself."

Ye Beihuang smiled and pulled her down, sat down with her, and watched the beauty of the flower wall: "Now, it's really good to be able to watch flowers with you like this, no one disturbs you, and no worries about state affairs."

Ying Rushuang agreed with him: "Yes, it's really good."

In fact, she doesn't like roses so much, even though this huge roses wall was specially created for her.

What she likes is peony because of its elegance and luxury and beauty.

But he didn't like peonies so much, and he thought the flowers were a bit flamboyant and elegant, so there were very few peonies planted in the palace.

Several eunuchs came over and set up a small table neatly, setting up a few pastries and tea.

"Your Majesty, Empress, this is a rose cake and rose tea made of fresh rose flowers and dew on the petals. Please taste it." An old eunuch said respectfully.

Ye Beihuang picked up a small plate, and used a delicate knife and fork to a piece of pastry, handed it to Ying Rushuang's mouth, and said, "You used to like this one, come and see how it tastes."

Ying Rushuang took a bite and savored it carefully: "Well, it's soft and moderate, sweet and not greasy. The fragrance of roses is very strong and delicious."

"Okay," Ye Beihuang was very happy. "Dehe, please call a few servants and pick the roses here and send them to the imperial kitchen. Let the imperial kitchen make more rose cakes and rose tea, and give them to everyone in the palace.

Empress.”

"Yes." Dehe responded respectfully and ordered the palace maids to pick flowers.

These palace maids are all young and beautiful, carrying small bamboo baskets and picking tea under the flower wall, which is very pleasing to the eye.

Ye Beihuang was drinking tea while enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of him, which was extremely comfortable.

Ying Rushuang was also smiling on her face, but her heart was very indifferent. If his health was not so bad, these palace maids would be "eated" by him.

When he was young, he was such a man, and his country and beauty were all playing with him in the palm of his hand.

Tonight, she and Ye Wanjun came to a secret meeting under the flower wall, ruining the flower wall, and humiliating his emperor's heart.

Not long after, the colorful, exquisite and delicious rose cake and the fragrant rose tea were sent to the residences of all the ladies in the harem.

Liu Meiyan heard what the outside said, "The Emperor has a reward", and was happy. She thought the Emperor had come and went out quickly. However, she was so happy that she only sent a few dishes of pastries and a pot of flower tea, and it was the emperor's order.

Sent.

She stood at the door in dismay for a long time before she asked quietly: "Didn't the emperor come again today?"

She has given birth to the prince for nearly half a year. Except for coming three or four times a month, the emperor will talk to her a few words and look at the child. Every time she stays for about a quarter of an hour, she will no longer have any interaction with her.

As for the gift, the emperor was generous and rewarded her every three days to protect her mother and son from wealth and food.

However, with only rich food and clothing, how can she feel good and satisfied?

Qingmei said: "The emperor is busy these days."

"Hehe..." Liu Meiyan chuckled, her eyes full of bitterness.

What is the emperor busy with? With the "help" of the empress dowager, he is not busy with state affairs at all. He is busy with the empress drinking tea and watching operas, singing and dancing, and traveling around.

"Have he gone to Concubine Shu again today?" she asked with a chuckling.

Concubine Shu is the emperor's new favorite. In addition to the queen, the emperor's favorite is Concubine Shu now. She goes to Concubine Shu to spend the night every three or four days. Concubine Shu is now proud.

Qingmei was silent for a moment and said, "Yes, the emperor has been with Concubine Shu all day today."

She hoped that the Empress would no longer have any affection or concern for the Emperor, and just keep the wealth and peace in front of her. No matter how lonely or lonely it is, it is better than holding an impossible obsession.

Liu Meiyan was stunned for a moment, her eyes flashed with jealousy, and her voice was sour: "Is Shufei's body okay?"

She had seen the weak Liu Fufeng Concubine Shu several times. She looked clean, with a small face and a small nose, as weak as a flower in the strong wind. She was simply a copy of her, but she was sick and frustrated the day after tomorrow.

, but this Shufei is born sentimental and gentle.

People say that Concubine Shu is favored because of her understanding, but she knows that Concubine Shu is favored the same as hers.

I believe that there must be many scars on Concubine Shu. I wonder how long this naturally weak Concubine Shu can last?

She was also afraid of pain and she didn't want to be injured. However, she still wanted to be favored by the emperor and would still be jealous of others being favored.

Qingmei sighed in her heart, feeling deeply saddened by her obsession, and said, "I didn't hear that Concubine Shu is in good health."

"Hmph, she won't be spoiled for long..." Liu Meiyan gritted her teeth, and hatred appeared in her eyes.

"Empress, Your Highness is crying, he is crying so hard-" Qingyan ran over anxiously and shouted.

Liu Meiyan's face sank and she ran over quickly.

In the eldest prince's room, a nanny was holding a few months old baby, and the baby was crying violently.

Seeing Liu Meiyan approaching, the baby stretched out his fat and tender hands with an expression of embracing him.

When Liu Meiyan saw his face, she felt a cramp in her heart.

If this child is quiet and silent, he is beautiful and pleasing. However, once he laughs or talks, his mouth is crooked and he will leak ugly saliva, looking stupid, and the longer he grows

Big, the more silly it is.

Sometimes, even she felt disgusted when she saw her son's stupidity, but she still loved her son. No matter what, it was the child she gave birth to with her life and the blood of the royal family she had to rely on.

But this child... will never be loved by the emperor and the royal family.

She reached out to hug the child, and the child cried and laughed, and saliva dripped on her body.

She took the handkerchief sent by the palace maid and wiped the saliva from the child's mouth.

Then, she sat by the window holding the child, staring at the orchids and butterflies outside the window in a daze.

Could it be like this for the rest of her life, holding a silly son and sitting alone until dark all day long, right?

"Empress—Empress—" A little eunuch ran in, "A big thing happened in Shuwen Palace!"

Liu Meiyan immediately looked happy: "Come on, sit down and tell me what happened in Shuwen Palace."

Shuwen Palace is Shufei's residence. If something happened there, it was probably something happened to Shufei.

She had been waiting for something to happen to Concubine Shu, and had been waiting for a long time.

The little eunuch is her confidant and often goes to inquire about the harem and report it to her.

He wiped his sweat and whispered: "Concubine Shu was crazy. She actually asked someone to invite the imperial physician to come over and cried to the imperial physician that the emperor beat her, saying that the scars on her body were all shot out by the emperor, and she couldn't stand it anymore

, She was going to ask the Empress Dowager for an explanation. I heard that the emperor happened to see her at that time. After hearing her say this, I felt very distressed and asked her if she was stimulated. But she knelt down and begged the emperor to come.

Don't hit her again..."

What he told was obviously a tragic story, but he heard Liu Meiyan "giggling" and laughing with a happy look on his face.

This is the first time she has been so happy since giving birth to the baby: "What did the emperor say?"

The Shufei came from a famous family. Although she looked sick, she was a real golden branch and jade leaf. She had only been "porn" for a few months and could not stand it anymore.

Unlike her, she was born in a small place, had no power, no power, no support in the palace, and knew how to endure, so that she could survive until today. But that concubine Shu didn't know how to "endure". Haha, she hit herself now

It's your feet.

The little eunuch felt that her smile was really creepy: "The emperor said that Concubine Shu must be sick, so she would be vague, and asked the servants to take good care of her and let the imperial physician treat her..."

Liu Meiyan: "Can others believe her words?"

"Of course I don't believe it." said the little eunuch, "No one believes that the emperor will beat her. Everyone says that Concubine Shu must be sick. Some people say that Concubine Shu likes to abuse herself. The injuries on her body were all caused by herself.

It is to win the emperor's concern."

"That's it." Liu Meiyan smiled, "There are so many sisters in the palace, who is not polite and humble to? I have also been favored by you. The emperor is very nice to me. The sister Shufei has never been in good health.

, it is inevitable that you will say the wrong thing."

The little eunuch said: "What the Empress said is that the emperor is famous for being generous and kind, how could he do that kind of thing? Alas, how could Concubine Shu be so confused..."

At this time, a palace maid ran over and said, "Empress, the emperor is here to visit you."

Sure enough, it came! Liu Meiyan stood up and put the child back to the cradle: "I'll go out to welcome the emperor now, you all avoid it."

The emperor's pleasure must be very bad, and she needs her "comfort".

With the incident of Shufei, the emperor finally knew that she was the best candidate, because no matter what happened, she would protect the emperor.

She walked out, and Ye Qingge and she walked towards her.

"How is Liu Fei's health improved?" He held Liu Meiyan's slender hand and asked considerately.

"I thank the emperor for his concern." She pulled the emperor into the house and smiled sweetly, "If you don't believe it, the emperor can come and try it."

Ye Qingge laughed: "Then I have to test Concubine Liu well."

Liu Meiyan closed the door and said affectionately: "Yes, I'm ready."

Ye Qingge pulled out a thin soft whip from his arms, smiled and ordered: "Take off your clothes."

Sure enough, this woman's appetite for him is still the most important thing, and she will not betray him or betray him like that bitch of Concubine Shu.

The next day, Liu Meiyan was named the Imperial Concubine and regained the emperor's favor, which attracted envy, jealousy and hatred in the harem.

Only Qingmei went to the small temple in the palace to burn incense, praying that the empress would wake up as soon as possible.
