My Beloved Concubine Only Wants to Eat Melons

Seeing that it was nightfall, Yu Wenlan stepped into the Ganlu Hall, only to see Yan Shu writing at the table.

He was so focused that he didn't even know he entered the palace.

It was Liandong who reminded, "Master, Your Majesty is coming."

Only then did Yan Shu look up and see him, and quickly got up from the table to salute, "The concubine sees Your Majesty."

After speaking, he looked out of the window again, and asked in surprise, "What time is it?"

"Xuzheng," Yu Wenlan answered her, a little surprised, "Did you forget the time when you wrote the script?"

Yan Shu nodded and said, "The concubine wanted to finish writing quickly, so she didn't pay attention for a while."

"Oh?"

Yu Wenlan became curious again, "What kind of story is this time?"

Left and right have also reached the end, Yan Shu cleared her throat, and said to her, "The concubine today wrote a story about ungratefulness and finally getting retribution."

Yu Wenlan was already sitting at the side, with a look of attentive listening, "Let's listen."

Yan Shu continued, "Many years ago, there was a scholar who, because of his poor family, lived frugally and frugally since he was a child, and his life was very unsatisfactory. So he determined to study hard and become a leader in the future."

"This scholar is indeed quite talented. He has passed the county and township examinations all the way, and he is going to Beijing to take the Chunwei exam. On his way to Beijing to catch up with the exam, he met another candidate. This candidate has a wealthy family, is generous, and likes To make friends, I heard that the scholar is quite talented, so I went with him, not only invited him to dinner, but also took a boat ride with him and helped him with his travel expenses, it can be said that he took good care of him."

"But this scholar is narrow-minded and jealous, so he took advantage of his unpreparedness and stole others' money to pester him and ran away first."

Um?

Yu Wenlan couldn't help raising her eyebrows, "What happened next?"

To be honest, after hearing that he has not yet determined the identity of this person, he can't help but feel a little suspicious. Could it be that this is just a fictional story?

However, according to common sense, there should be no good end for this kind of kindness and revenge, right?

But she heard her say, "Later, I didn't expect this scholar to be in high school, and the one he stole and entangled with unfortunately failed the exam."

Yu Wenlan hissed, "The companion didn't accuse him of stealing?"

Yan Shu looked at Xiaobai as if she was looking at Xiaobai, "This scholar actually planned to steal other people's money a long time ago, so he gave the other party a false name from the beginning, so he wanted to sue him, but he couldn't find anyone at all." , and I don’t know anything about his high school.”

Yu Wenlan frowned, "Is this person so scheming? What happened next?"

Yan Shu said, "Later, this person entered the official career smoothly, while that companion went back to his hometown frustrated, and later took the exam, but this person used his identity to secretly trick him, causing him to fail many times, while the scholar himself climbed higher and higher. Gao, and later became an important member of the imperial court."

Court dignitaries?

Yu Wenlan was taken aback, isn't it a fiction?

The other party is an official from the DPRK and China?

Then who is so heartless, he doesn't even know?

It's not easy to ask clearly, so he said, "Then what happened after that?"

I just heard her say, "Later, that partner was finally discouraged because he failed in many trials, so he simply changed his career and went into business. However, because he is open-minded and likes to make friends, the business is doing pretty well."

"Because of his scheming, this scholar is good at drilling camps. At first, his official career was very open, but later, he began to seek flowers and ask Liu, and finally Hualiu died of illness.",

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Well, this ending...

He knows who it is.

It's just that he still doesn't understand, why did she write such a story to Xie Pei?

Could this be Xie Pei's previous experience?

He tried to say, "Listen, this person is somewhat similar to the businessman who was looking for flowers and willows the day before yesterday."

Yan Shu nodded, "It's indeed a bit like it. Your Majesty can understand it as the second life of that businessman. Anyway, he likes to find flowers and ask willows."

[There is no need to doubt that it is him, Xie Pei, your history of Southwest administration! The first wolf-hearted dog lung in history! ! 】

Yu Wenlan, "..."

It's really Xie Pei.

This person actually did such evil things when he was young?

He thought for a while, and then said, "It seems that this person really has a bad character, this time the ending is even more ruthless than last time."

Yan Shu snorted, "The bad guys must be rewarded, otherwise, wouldn't everyone in the world do bad things? Anyway, no matter what the reality is, the bad guys in the concubines' stories must get what they deserve."

【Hmph, if I want to wrong him, I will stop writing! How dare you go to court? This made him know the outcome of fighting with his old lady! 】

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Well, he said, how could she write Xie Pei to death again?

It turned out that he knew what happened in the court this morning.

He nodded and said, "This story is very good. I think it should be spread widely in the world, so that the world can understand the truth that evil is rewarded with evil."

Yan Shu's eyes lit up, she quickly nodded and said, "I think so too, why don't you ask Your Majesty to take it to Bachelor Zou tomorrow morning, and ask the bookseller to leave quickly."

Yu Wenlan raised her eyebrows, "Why tomorrow morning? Just ask someone to send it now."

After speaking, he ordered Fu Hai, "Find someone to send Yibi's manuscript to the Imperial Academy."

Fu Hai should be, so he went out to find the guards.

Yan Shu, "???"

Why is this person more anxious than her?

But he looked at her again and said, "By the way, have you finished writing?"

Yan Shu came back to her senses and hurriedly said, "There are still two words left."

After speaking, he hurried to the desk and finished writing the ending with a few strokes.

That's right, revenge is of course the sooner the better.

Regardless of other things, when Fu Hai found the guards, she handed over the manuscript Mogan just now.

Tsk, now we are waiting for the reaction of that wolf-hearted Southwest Tongzheng Shi.

I'm looking forward to it.

Yu Wenlan, "..."

This is... a quarrel addiction?

~~

Overnight.

Early the next morning, Yan Shu was enjoying her breakfast when she heard a message from the system.

【Your new book has been printed overnight by the bookseller, and hundreds of copies were sold as soon as the bookstore opened this morning. 】

Hundreds of copies?

Yan Shu's eyes lit up, 【So my storybook is already so popular? 】

Hundreds of copies were sold early in the morning. Do the math, how much money can this wave get?

System, 【Hey, is the focus now on money? 】

Yan Shu,【... also, did you see that **** Southwest Tongzheng History? 】

System, 【This person asked the coachman to buy a copy on the way home just after he left the court, and he is hiding at home to read it now. 】

Tsk tsk, Yan Shu really wants to know what this person's expression is.

Especially when he saw that he himself died of Hualiu's disease.

She took a bite of the beef biscuit, and did not forget to tell the system, [Remember to broadcast to me his appearance after watching it. 】

System, [Ou. 】

Yan Shu began to enjoy the delicious food comfortably.

Well, this beef stuffing packs a bag of juice once you bite into it, and the biscuits are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, it's really delicious!

Just when a beef biscuit was about to be eaten, the system finally sent another message, [No, that person has finished reading, and was so angry that he threw the book into the charcoal stove and burned it, and said in a rage that he must find a way to catch you. 】

Yan Shu raised her eyebrows, 【You still plan to arrest me? It seems that no tears will be shed without seeing the coffin. 】

Well, when she has another bowl of pumpkin porridge, I will write about how this man fights with fireworks girls everywhere.

Oh, by the way, the word "big war" can't be used yet.

With his little ability, he has to be described as "second battle".

In this way, when she is full, she is ready to start.

Unexpectedly, he picked up the pen, and heard the system ding again, 【The emperor has just issued two edicts. 】

Yan Shu, [Decree? Doesn't the emperor make decrees every day? What's so special? 】

The system, [one is to strictly prohibit officials from patronizing the place of fireworks; the other is to strictly investigate the life style of court officials, but anyone who has been involved in crimes such as theft, robbery, and detention, no matter when they occur, will be removed from office and strictly pursued. 】

[You taste, you taste carefully. 】

"..."

Yan Shu, [emmm, this edict is not inspired by my script, is it? 】

Otherwise, how come it is so ingenious and so targeted?

However, she was also a little worried for the emperor. After all, according to the melons she had eaten, the ministers in the court, especially the elderly ones, were basically not clean.

Once this edict comes down, he may have to lose a lot of manpower.

System, 【You think the emperor is stupid? Those older people, who were either the former emperor or the empress dowager, wouldn't it be nice for the emperor to remove them one by one at this time and replace them with his own people? 】

I see.

Yan Shu suddenly realized.

Tsk, the emperor is smart and capable, and good-looking, if only he didn't have that problem.

But no matter what, she doesn't need to write any more "second battle" now, just wait to eat melons.

Tsk tsk, these two edicts are so targeted, I don't know if the lord of the general administration history was scared to the point of shit?

~~

Qianming Palace.

In addition to those two edicts, Yu Wenlan also ordered to increase the manpower of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and ordered the Ministry of Officials to reform the official inspection system, so as to increase the inspection of the imperial court and thoroughly correct the atmosphere.

So he spent the whole day busy.

Seeing the twilight, the hall has already turned on the lights.

Fu Hai stepped forward and said to the king who was still reading the scriptures, "Your Majesty, it's time to serve dinner."

Yu Wenlan hummed, but asked, "What is Yibi doing today?"

Fu Bao hurriedly stepped forward to answer, "Your Majesty, Mrs. Yipin is in the Ganlu Palace today, and today she asked the dining room to deliver a lot of candied melon seeds and other snacks. She seems to be in a good mood."

good mood?

Yu Wenlan raised an eyebrow.

Could it be because Xie Pei got scared after reading her new book?

He simply said, "Put the imperial meal in the Ganlu Hall, I will use it in the past."

Fu Hai is busy.

~~~

But in Ganlu Hall, Yan Shu ate melons for most of the day, and when she was about to eat, she saw Fu Hai coming.

There was a long line of palace people following behind, holding various dishes and food boxes in their hands.

Fu Hai smiled and said, "Your Majesty will have dinner here tonight, please wait a moment, Madam."

Huh?

Yan Shu's eyes lit up immediately, and there is another royal meal to rub?

She hurriedly agreed, and went to the side to wait for the palace people to set the meal.

After a while, various dishes bloomed on the table like flowers.

Yan Shu scanned it all over, and saw that there were melon roast tenderloin, spicy belly shreds, milky fish fillet, mushroom duck feet, eight-treasure chicken, salt and pepper golden wings, mandarin duck fish fan, pepper fish soup, and three other golden dim sum dishes. Crisp bird, two-color bean cake, Ruyi roll.

This is actually a simplified menu a while ago. Compared with the previous sea cucumber, abalone, deer tendon and sparrow tongue, the ingredients are quite down-to-earth.

At this time, all kinds of scents rushed into Yan Shu's nose, making her stomach growl.

It was the first time she was looking forward to seeing the emperor so soon.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Yu Wenlan to appear in her eager anticipation.

Yan Shu's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly led the others to salute, "The concubine sees Your Majesty."

【finally come! ! Do you know how hard it is for others to wait for you! ! 】

Yu Wenlan secretly raised his eyebrows—

This is... finally missing him?

It's really rare.

However, in the next sentence, she heard her say again, 【Hurry up and sit down at the table and stop talking nonsense! ! Otherwise, the salt and pepper golden-winged canary finch will not be crispy! ! 】

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Well, it turned out to be for eating.

He had no choice but to say goodbye and went to the table.

I wanted to say something more, but I was afraid of being talked about by her, so I had to eat first.

Seeing him move his chopsticks, Yan Shu hurriedly followed suit.

Well, it’s okay, the salt and pepper golden wings are still crispy on the outside, but the chicken inside is juicy and juicy, not bad.

Grilled melon tenderloin and fish fillet with milk sauce are both refreshing and delicious, duck feet with mushrooms are rich and fragrant, eight-treasure chicken has heaven and earth in it, and fish soup is spicy and delicious.

Especially spicy tripe is a great meal, and Yan Shu's bowl of rice has bottomed out before she knows it.

Seeing her leisurely eating dessert and drinking fish soup, still lamenting the sweetness of the bean cake, Yu Wenlan couldn't help asking, "Why is your appetite so good today?"

Yan Shu smiled and said, "Because my concubine is in a good mood today."

Yu Wenlan raised her eyebrows, "Why are you in a good mood? But is there any happy event?"

Yan Shu said casually, "It's nothing, as long as the script is written smoothly, I'm happy. Well, Your Majesty, hurry up and taste this canary bird, it's so crispy!"

But he said in his heart, 【Is there even a need to ask? Of course, it's refreshing to see the opponent's unlucky! 】

[Ever since I received those two edicts today, that **** Southwest Tongzheng Shi immediately panicked, fidgeting like an ant on a hot pot, even fell when going to the toilet, and almost fell into the toilet hahahahaha]

Thinking of this Yan Shu almost died of laughter.

Yu Wenlan twitched her lips secretly.

What? Xie Pei almost fell into the toilet?

He hasn't received the news yet, but she already knows it so clearly?

Still, thinking about that scene... it's actually kind of funny.

Yu Wenlan took a canary bird to taste.

Well, the skin is crispy, and the inside is sweet and sour jam, which is really delicious.

Probably because of an infection, he couldn't suppress his complexion for a while, and the corners of his lips curled up.

After dinner, it was still early, so the two decided to play chess to eliminate food.

However, Yan Shu's skills were not as good as others, and she was killed in the next three games.

Just when he lost interest, he saw Fu Hai enter the hall and said to Yu Wenlan, "Your Majesty, Jin Yiwei has something to report."

Jin Yiwei is the emperor's confidant, and usually reports things that cannot be known to outsiders.

Yan Shu rolled her eyes and hurriedly said, "The concubine goes to take a bath first, so I won't disturb Your Majesty."

It's really not easy for the mother to hold the thigh. It's too hard to endure with her little chess skills in order to make the emperor happy.

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Obviously, in order to save some face for her, he has already given in a lot.

Forget it, it seems that this activity can be eliminated from the two in the future.

He nodded first, "Alright."

Got up and went to the outer hall.

Upon seeing him, Jin Yiwei immediately reported, "Your Majesty, since receiving the edict today, Xie Pei, the governor of the Southwest Administration, was in a panic. He fell at home in the evening and injured his coccyx. He is currently lying in bed. It is estimated that he will not be able to attend the court meeting tomorrow. .”

Yu Wenlan raised her eyebrows and fell to her tailbone?

It seems that maybe it really fell while going to the toilet?

But I heard Jin Yiwei say again, "Wei Chen and others looked through the scientific examination files twenty years ago one by one, and found that there was a Jingyang examinee, who was probably the person mentioned by His Majesty. Possibility of going the same way. In Xie Pei’s high school year, this person was unsuccessful. Since then, he went to Beijing six times in a row, all of which ended in failure. Later, he started to start a business. Now he has opened several silk and tea houses in Chang’an. Business is doing pretty well.”

There really is such a person...

Yu Wenlan said, "Tell him to the capital, and identify Xie Pei. If there is something that happened back then, I will submit it to the Ministry of Officials and Dali Temple for investigation."

—Since the decree has been issued, it must be effective. If they do not pull out an example, they will not take it seriously.

Jin Yiwei should be, so he resigned and left.

~~

Zhongcui Palace.

After Concubine Zhou was demoted, the emperor took care of the empress dowager's face and still asked her to live here, and the interior decorations were not removed.

It's just that the palace still looks magnificent, but it's no longer as lively as before.

Concubine Zhou also waited for a long time tonight before she saw Concubine An stepping into the door with the maid Liu Di.

"A concubine sees a concubine."

Anpin bowed unhurriedly.

Concubine Zhou looked at her coldly, and then sneered, "In the past, when you had nothing to do, you would come to this palace, but now it is difficult for me to see you? I have been waiting for you for half an hour tonight!"

Concubine An said, "Please calm down, my concubine was ill two days ago, and I was afraid of getting angry with you, so I didn't dare to come. Just now, the imperial doctor happened to take my concubine's pulse, so I wasted some time."

Concubine Zhou knew that the other party had underestimated her, so she snorted unceremoniously, "Don't think that Concubine Li has entered the cold palace, and Concubine Ning has not been restrained enough, you are the head of the harem, then Li Yanshu has been promoted to the concubine, and now she is already a concubine. At the same level as you."

How could Anpin fail to hear the excitement in the words?

So she just continued to bow her head and said, "What Your Majesty said is that at this speed, it may not be long before she can be at the same level as you, Your Majesty."

"you…"

Concubine Zhou choked with anger.

Slowed down, but deliberately smiled, "Then you see that little **** from the countryside sitting on an equal footing with you, isn't it sad?"

Concubine An only said, "That's something that can't be helped. Don't you think your majesty has noticed? His Majesty's heart is with Concubine Yi. No matter what happens, he will definitely protect her, and ordinary tricks can't move her at all."

Originally she was frankly persuading her, but Concubine Zhou deliberately provoked her again and said, "Aren't you always resourceful? Even the queen mother looks at you differently. Why, now you are at the end of your wits?"

Anpin gave up.

Then he also laughed, and said, "Your Majesty is an honor, and my concubine is no more than a mediocre person. Besides, since the ceremony on that day, my concubine's grandfather has been at home all the time, and he has not been to court until now. The concubine has nothing to do now. .”

Heh, only a fool like her would still want to use others as a knife in this situation.

Concubine Zhou suddenly became annoyed, and snorted, "If Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites hadn't rushed to confess his guilt that day, would the situation be like today? If you want to blame it, blame him for being unable to hold his breath!"

Concubine An said, "Even if the concubine's grandfather does not plead guilty, Cheng Engong will still faint at the ceremony. The empress's situation at this time cannot be blamed on the concubine's grandfather anyway."

"you…"

Concubine Zhou's eyes were wide open, and she was about to raise her hand to hit her.

What a bitch, she dares to talk back to her now!

At this moment, there was a sound of beeping outside.

"The sky is dry and the things are dry... Be careful with the candles..."

Needless to say, it was that Wang Zhaoyi's voice again.

Concubine An bowed her head and said, "I'm afraid that the key is about to be released, so my concubine will not bother the empress, and I will go to pay my respects to the queen mother tomorrow morning."

As he said that, he turned around and walked out of the palace gate.

~~

It was almost the Lantern Festival, but the chill in the night wind didn't seem to have diminished at all.

Liu Di followed her master all the way, recalling the scene just now, she said worriedly, "Mother, Concubine Zhou has always been vicious, this time you treat her like this, I wonder if she will deal with you?"

Anpin smiled contemptuously, "Treat me? Who in this palace still listens to her now? Is she commanding her around? Even the Queen Mother has disappeared."

makes sense.

In the past, the queen mother valued Concubine Zhou the most, but since her father made a fool of herself at the ceremony and she was demoted, the queen mother never saw her again.

Even when I saw her at a palace banquet by chance, the queen mother refused to even give her a look, her dislike was already very obvious.

On the contrary, the queen mother has repeatedly called the master to speak recently, which is quite important.

Only then did Liu Di feel relieved a little.

The two walked a few more steps, only to see two guards wearing flying fish uniforms walking past not far away.

Liu Di was taken aback, and said, "How come there are Jinyiwei in the harem?"

An Pin glanced at the direction they came from, and said, "Isn't the direction of Ganlu Palace ahead? I'm probably looking for His Majesty."

Liu Di sighed, and said in a low voice, "Even if Concubine Zhou loses her position, Your Majesty will only go to Ganlu Palace. When can I see you?"

An Bin smiled and said, "There will always be a chance."

Although as she said just now, Li Yanshu couldn't be helped by ordinary tricks, but no one is perfect.

If she didn't believe it, Li Yanshu would not make mistakes.

There is still a long way to go, she just waits.

~~

After Jin Yiwei left, Yu Wenlan walked back to the inner hall alone, still unable to hold back his thoughts.

Xie Pei's fall, as well as the past about rushing for the exam... were all hit by her again.

Since the various possibilities cannot be explained, it seems that there is only one possibility.

—She is probably just like herself, and she also has an ability that is different from ordinary people.

Just different from mind reading.

But it seems to be more powerful than mind reading.

Tsk, it's strange that she wanted to write a storybook. Thinking about it, it must be very uncomfortable to hold so many things in her heart, so she wanted to write it.

Of course he was shocked, but also somewhat moved.

It's also fortunate that she has a clear mind. If the wicked develop this ability, what should I do?

However, wouldn't it be a little too condescending to just ask her to write a script?

Just imagine, if a man has this ability and can use his fists in many positions, it will definitely benefit the society and achieve great things...

Suddenly there was the sound of footsteps, and Yu Wenlan looked up, only to see that it was Yan Shu who came out after bathing.

I saw her bright eyes, pink cheeks, and thin red lips, like cherries in May.

Yu Wenlan suddenly became thirsty.

The thought just now was put aside for the time being.

— With such a beauty by your side, let him get well first.

Thinking of this, Yan Shu had already climbed onto the couch.

Yu Wenlan took her into his arms and said softly, "What did you do today?"

Yan Shu, who didn't know what happened, said truthfully, "I didn't do anything today, I just ate some snacks and played leaf cards with Lonicera for a while."

Yu Wenlan raised her eyebrows, "Didn't you write the script?"

Yan Shu smiled and said, "The concubine felt a little tired these two days and wanted to take a rest, so I didn't write today."

[Hey, I mainly eat melons and don't care about it! Just seeing that old man Xie flustered like an ant on a hot pot today makes me want to die of joy! 】

[Just imagine, if one day this person sees the bed details of himself and the fireworks girls in the story book, he will not pass out directly? Hahahahaha she can't wait! 】

Yu Wenlan, "???"

What?

Bed, bed details?

How does she even know this? !

No, no, it seems that this ability is not very good.

He then said, "Don't be bored in the temple all day, now that the weather is getting warmer, go out for a walk more."

Yan Shu thought in her heart, 【To put it lightly, how much people hate me when I go out as a target! If I can't get it right, someone will secretly push me into the lake again. Or anoint the ground with oil and make me fall? horrible! 】

Yu Wenlan, "..."

What is this mess?

But she just said, "The concubine is still a little afraid of the cold, not to mention that the weather has not turned warm yet, it would be bad if I accidentally catch a cold."

Unexpectedly, when the words fell, Yu Wenlan suddenly took her hand and said, "Don't be afraid, you belong to me, and I will definitely protect you well."

While speaking, he gently kneaded her hand in his palm and felt that his fingers were slender and tender, like green onions.

While she was enjoying herself, she heard her tsk tsk in her heart, 【This sounds nice, if you don't need me as an archery target someday, wouldn't you kick it? 】

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Did she actually think so?

So he looked at her seriously, and said, "I never lie, but whatever I say, I will do."

As soon as these words came out, she was finally taken aback, and looked at him seriously.

After staring at him for a while, I suddenly said in my heart, [Oh my god, he looks so charming when he is serious! 】

Yu Wenlan, "..."

Why do you add those two words every time you praise him?

but…

She was fascinated by him after all.

Yu Wenlan felt happy and wanted to kiss her.

Just about to bow her head, she heard her say again in her heart, 【Tsk, if I write a book about the emperor someday, will it explode? 】

[A man who is impeccable in every aspect has a fatal flaw! Thinking about this theme is exciting!]

Yu Wenlan, "???"

Quick, quick stop!
