Chapter 127 Love Token
Chapter 127 Love Token
At 10 p.m. that evening, Gu Junshen walked briskly to the entrance of Wangyueju Palace.
The little notebook that was guarding the door was being wiped carefully.
He opened his arms slightly, as if he was already used to it.
Smelling the scent of alcohol diluted by the drizzle in the yard, he nodded lightly.
The fresh rain made his shiny black long hair slightly wet, and it glowed yellow under the illumination of the lanterns on the eaves of Wangyueju.
'That's the taste!'
A scent that reassured him.
At this time, several shouts of joy were heard in the hall. He just listened and recognized that it was Song Nanxiang's voice.
Liu Sheng, who was following behind him, was about to shout out when he was stopped by Gu Junshen.
Then he walked slowly into the inner hall with his small notebook.
As soon as I lifted the crystal bead door curtain, I saw the beautiful Song Nanxiang sitting on the couch, covering her mouth and laughing softly.
The face with bright eyes and white teeth now emitted a pink halo like peach blossoms.
The inadvertently flickering eyelashes were quite charming, which made Gu Junshen's heart tighten a little.
"Hey! My beloved concubine is laughing so happily, but is there something funny? Can you share it with me?"
Gu Junshen coughed lightly, his tone calm and steady, his face intimidating, with an indiscernible smile on his face.
"Your servant pays respect to His Majesty!"
Upon seeing this, Caiyun and Juping immediately put away the smiles on their faces, squatted down and saluted Gu Junshen.
Gu Junshen just raised the corner of his mouth and waved his hand.
Upon seeing this, the two men immediately slipped away from the inner hall.
"Why didn't you call someone to inform the emperor that he was coming? Do you want to make fun of me?"
Nanxiang stood up from the couch, walked slowly to Gu Junshen and squatted slightly.
"How could that be? I just think that my beloved concubine is so beautiful when she smiles!"
Gu Junshen took Nan Xiang's hand and rubbed it gently.
"I wonder if the Emperor has made alcohol?"
As soon as Gu Junshen sat on the couch, Caiyun brought him Junshan silver needles.
It was the gift he gave to Nanxiang last time. However, Nanxiang is not suitable for drinking tea now, so he often takes it out to entertain Gu Junshen.
"It has been refined. People have been sent to various places to stabilize the epidemic."
Nanxiang pursed her lips and raised her hand to stroke her bun, which was held up by only a hairpin. When she went to bed, she only had to take off the hairpin and her bright black hair would fall vertically like a waterfall.
She had heard about the epidemic in some parts of the Northern Dynasty earlier, but as a concubine she was not allowed to interfere in government affairs. At that time she could only listen to it as a piece of news and could not do anything, nor did she say much to Gu Junshen.
She was just glad that the alcohol she developed accidentally saved so many people, and her medical studies were worthwhile.
"Your Majesty! The Junshan tea you gave me has a noble aroma, a mellow and sweet taste, and a bright yellow soup color. It is truly top-grade."
Nanxiang covered her mouth and chuckled, motioning Gu Junshen to drink some fragrant tea.
If she wasn't pregnant, she would have savored this Junshan tea carefully.
"As long as my beloved likes it!"
Gu Junshen glanced at Nan Xiang, picked up the teacup and took a sip. Suddenly, a strong tea aroma filled his mouth. The warm tea instantly dispelled the chill brought by the drizzle just now.
The amount of Junshan tea offered as a tribute each year is not much, so he sent the remaining one third this year to Wangyueju.
Nanxiang smiled faintly and gently wiped the rain off his hair with a handkerchief.
"Your Majesty. It's raining outside. You can come back later."
Gu Junshen only felt a whiff of fragrance entering his nose, and his mind became much clearer.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, my beloved. I miss you so much!"
……
Listen to Xuetang.
Su looked at the white jade bracelet with lily on it on the table and wanted to pick it up, but stopped herself in disappointment.
She looked lost, with tears in her eyes. Lily's death tore at her heart. She felt wronged, but helpless.
This bracelet was given to her by Lily when she accompanied her into the palace.
Just so that Lily can live peacefully with her in the harem.
Unexpectedly, Lily was killed because she accidentally saw something she shouldn't have seen.
She wouldn't believe that Lily fell into the water accidentally. How could it be such a coincidence?
It happened that Lily saw a foreign man entering Wangyueju.
She couldn't help but clench her fists. The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt, and the angrier she became.
Now she couldn't even give Lily a proper burial.
……
At noon the next day, Nanxiang woke up leisurely.
At this moment, there was a yellow and white jade pendant in her palm. It was the gift that Gu Junshen gave her last night - the Hetian Jade Phoenix Pendant.
It feels a little warm in the hand, not cold, and gives a good Nanxiang feeling.
Gu Junshen gave her this Fengming pendant, and she knew the meaning behind it, which was nothing more than happiness and good wishes.
He hoped that she could give birth to the prince safely in a few months, which also showed Gu Junshen's deep love for her.
Nanxiang naturally had no reason to refuse, so she happily accepted it.
At the same time, she also thought of a way to deal with Xu Ziang.
When she was at the Song Mansion, she heard that Song Wanru gave her jade comb to Xu Ziang as a token of love.
Xu Ziang was deeply in love with Song Wanru, and he would always carry the jade comb with him, never leaving it for a moment, and would take it out from time to time to remind himself of her.
Song Wanru did everything she could to Xu Ziang at that time, so that he would think of her when he saw the jade comb.
She also engraved the word "Wanru" on the jade comb.
When Nan Xiang first heard it, she felt that Song Wanru was a person with extremely high skills and a clever mind. No wonder Xu Ziang couldn't resist her.
But she didn't understand why Song Wanru became like a fool after entering the palace, being manipulated by the Queen every day.
Maybe Song Wanru really put all her thoughts on Xu Ziang.
When she set her target on someone who was out of her reach, she felt at a loss as to what to do.
After all, it is impossible for two people to like the same person at the same time.
Moreover, Song Wanru does not love the emperor, but is pursuing fame, wealth and power, and is dissatisfied with her current comfortable life.
Especially after knowing that she, a concubine's daughter, was promoted one after another, she felt extremely unbalanced, and her mind became distorted.
Nanxiang couldn't help but feel pity for Song Wanru.
Originally the eldest daughter of the Song family who was treated with great favor, she became the unpopular Ruda when she arrived at the palace, and her life was completely restricted.
Of course, if Nan Xiang wants to win over Xu Ziang with this jade comb, it is not enough. She also needs to make the relationship between the two obvious enough so that people can see that there is a problem between them without having to think too much.
But this problem is easy to solve. As long as she puts the truth about their affair in front of Gu Junshen, she believes he will not remain indifferent.
Although Gu Junshen had no feelings for Song Wanru, Nanxiang knew that as an emperor, he would not tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes, especially such things that were humiliating to the dignity of the royal family.
He will definitely be severely punished, and even if Xu Ziang is not the one being punished, he will be severely punished.
This matter requires careful consideration.
Nanxiang gently stroked the jade pendant in her hand, and a few gleams of light flashed in her eyes.
