Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 606: 2 Pepper Chickens

Ningyuxuan.

Concubine Shu looked at Concubine Ye and the emperor with kind faces, and an idea came to her mind.

She had already had this idea when she was in the dungeon.

"Your Majesty, can I...can I see the Emperor?"

Seeing that Song Yu called himself a commoner just now, Concubine Shu finally found her own position.

Although the emperor still called himself Concubine Shu.

But she knew it in her heart.

As long as she walked out of the palace, she became a commoner.

"The Emperor...he might not want to see you."

The emperor was in a dilemma.

Judging from his father's attitude at noon, it didn't seem like he would agree to this request.

"I just...want to say sorry to him in person."

Concubine Shu and the retired emperor have been together for so many years. It would be a lie to say that they have no feelings for each other.

The emperor was kind and treated them and their son very well.

It’s because of the protection of the emperor.

Only because of this, mother and son could live such a comfortable life despite the constant oppression from the Queen Mother.

So after the accident, she always wanted to say sorry to the emperor.

As for why she chose the most inconspicuous emperor among so many princes.

Except at that time, the emperor was handsome.

What she admired was the simple and kind nature of the retired emperor.

She grew up in the harem, so she could tell what kind of person he was.

At that time, she just needed a child with royal blood to confuse the bloodline of the Great Xia Dynasty.

She had not expected that the emperor could sit in that position.

What the emperor said to her just now was also within her expectations.

The emperor was so good to her.

It can be said that the emperor emeritus is the emperor whether he is in power or after he abdicates.

His favor towards the mother and son was unprecedented in the harem.

When he found out that I had lied to him, he was so sad and upset.

"Your Majesty, please tell the Emperor Emeritus that I am the one who wronged him."

Concubine Shu said nothing else.

She knew that no matter how many times she said sorry, it could not make up for the harm she had done to the emperor.

"Shu Taifei, the emperor still retains your title now, because he wants you to be able to live in the capital as Song Xue in the future."

Huang Ye didn't say much else, she believed that Concubine Shu could understand.

Because as long as Concubine Shu is still in the palace, no one will doubt Song Xue's identity outside the palace.

Song Yu and Concubine Shu were naturally very grateful for the emperor's kindness.

When Song Yu and the other three were leaving, Hongdou put the two big bundles into the sedan chair in which Concubine Shu was sitting.

There was also an exquisite wooden box containing tea given to them by the emperor.

Because tea leaves cannot be placed together with other things in the bag.

In the two large bags were peppers from Ning Yuxuan's small vegetable garden, as well as snacks that Huang Ye had given them.

If tea leaves are put together with these foods, the flavors will mix.

In the hand of Concubine Shu, a piece of paper given to her by Prince Fu was tightly held.

Written on the piece of paper was Xuanyuan Jing's current address.

In short, Concubine Shu is in a very conflicted mood right now.

Although she was in the dungeon, she didn't know what was happening outside.

But her brother called himself a commoner in front of the emperor, which was not a good sign.

So even though she was sitting in the sedan chair, she had not left the palace yet.

But her heart had already sunk to the bottom.

Could it be that despite their early deployment and hard planning, they still failed to save the fate of the Nanzhao Kingdom?

At this time, Concubine Shu thought of Huang Ye again.

When she got into trouble, Concubine Ye was still a concubine.

Unexpectedly, within just one year, she was promoted from a concubine to a royal consort.

Concubine Shu thought that it might be because Concubine Ye not only destroyed her own plan at that time, but also cured the emperor of the poison and saved his life.

She also caught herself in Ning Yuxuan.

These merits are enough to allow her to move up a level.

If you ask Concubine Shu how much she hates Huang Ye now, she can't answer.

If it were as she thought, even the Nanzhao Kingdom would be gone.

How much meaning does her hatred have?

What she cares about most now is her children.

Jing'er has been timid since he was a child. He didn't know how he had offended the emperor, but the emperor actually demoted him to a commoner.

That child is very ambitious.

At this time, he didn't even know how aggrieved he felt?

When she leaves the palace, she will have to persuade him well to prevent him from getting over the problem and getting stuck in a dead end.

Thinking of this, Concubine Shu couldn't help but clench the piece of paper in her hand.

The sedan chair stopped at the palace gate.

Concubine Shu stepped down from the sedan chair.

"Senior sister, let me support you, let's walk slowly."

Madam Song quickly walked up to Concubine Shu and held her arm.

Song Yu took the two large bundles out of the sedan chair and handed one to Mrs. Song.

He carried the biggest burden on his back.

He held the box of tea leaves tightly in his arms.

"If you want to enter the palace in the future, just tell the gatekeeper and let them go in and report."

Xiao Yinzi said to Song Yu and the others with a smile.

"Thank you for the tip, young master."

Song Yu is now familiar with Xiao Yinzi, and he has a good impression of this clever little eunuch.

So he thanked Xiaoyinzi sincerely.

When you walk out of the palace, there is a busy street not far away.

Concubine Shu has not left the palace for more than 20 years.

She was still not used to the city as she had suddenly integrated into it.

So she looked a little dazed and a little panicked.

Fortunately, Song Yu called a carriage, and the three of them got on the carriage and returned to the Song Mansion.

Song House.

Only when Song Yu and the others walked into the living room in the front yard did Concubine Shu calm down.

Seeing the newly bought maid was about to serve them tea, Song Yu stopped her.

He first opened the two bundles on the table.

There were only piles of oil paper bags inside.

He opened the oil paper packages one by one.

In addition to chili peppers and dim sum, there are also the braised dishes they had eaten at noon.

What moved him most was that there were two pepper chickens inside.

Because he heard the little Prince Fu ask this at noon.

He asked Ye Fei if she had any more pepper chicken as he hadn't had enough.

Ye Fei said there were only three in total, and one was on the table next to them.

The remaining two are already on this table.

It seemed that Concubine Ye thought they liked it, so she asked the small kitchen to work overtime to prepare it.

At this time, Song Yu suddenly felt that he had integrated into the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty.

He has a home and friends in this capital city.

That’s right, although the emperor and Concubine Ye are much younger than him.

But in Song Yu's heart, she already regarded them as friends, not the emperor and concubine.

"That Ye Fei is really good. She said these stewed foods can be kept longer. The seasonings are all packaged."

Mrs. Song also kept praising him.

Song Yu asked the maid to take out the braised dishes and put them on the ice basin according to Huang Ye's instruction.

Then he personally made a bowl of tea for each of the three of them.

The refreshing tea fragrance made the three people feel calmer.
