Chu Yu was ill during these days, and Meizhu had always been there to take care of him personally. She was holding the medicine bowl and looking at Chu Yu who was sleeping on the bed with a complicated look on her face.
After so many years, it was time to get sick, but when she saw such a weak Chu Yu with her own eyes, she suddenly felt a little pain in her heart.
Ever since she came to Da Chu's harem, she seemed to have never been wronged again. Even if Princess Chu Yi was disrespectful to her, His Majesty would personally reprimand her.
All the food and clothing were of the best quality, and she had no shortage of fine clothes and food. His Majesty really gave her all the favor.
But what did she return to His Majesty, this illness?
But there was no way, she came to Dachu with this purpose, and there was no way she could betray her mission, but she felt her heart suddenly hurt.
The hand holding the medicine bowl trembled slightly, and suddenly I couldn't figure out my own mind. I felt very confused and fuzzy.
Putting the bowl on the table, Mei Zhu sat on the bed in a daze. She didn't know what was going on in her heart. She suddenly felt very sad.
But there is no way, no matter how reluctant, I will never forget my purpose, even if I stay here for another six years, I will not forget it.
She has never been from here, her home is not here, and she has no sense of belonging here.
"Ahem."
Chu Yu woke up coughing. He was already much haggard. Looking at Mei Zhu sitting beside him, he felt satisfied.
"Your Majesty finally woke up. You have been sleeping for a long time. I have been waiting for you to wake up."
Meizhu immediately smiled and helped Chu Yu up. No matter what happens in the future, she really feels happy at this moment.
"You have been by my side these days," Chu Yu said weakly, "I am really happy to be able to see you as soon as I wake up."
"These are what I should do."
Mei Zhu smiled shyly. In fact, she just blocked all the concubines who wanted to come over, including the imperial concubine. She just wanted to stay here alone and did not want other women to come and beat her.
After so many years, I have long been accustomed to having only myself around His Majesty, and I cannot tolerate other women!
"Over the years, I have become accustomed to your presence. As long as you are here, I feel at ease. I really like you."
Chu Yu squinted his eyes slightly, suddenly thinking of that day many years ago, when he first saw Mei Zhu, he thought this woman was beautiful, really beautiful.
He admitted that he was confused by this woman, but he was willing to be confused and he enjoyed it.
He doesn't know what's wrong with him, but he just likes this feeling. This is the first time he likes a woman so much and wants to give this woman all the good things.
Mei Zhu didn't know what to say, but her eyes gradually became moist.
Over the years, she could feel His Majesty's sincerity towards her. She really felt it, but she was very sorry and had no way to repay it.
She came to Dachu with a mission. She could not forget her mission. Even if her heart was loose, she still had to remember this mission.
"It is my blessing to receive such kindness from His Majesty."
Mei Zhu's tone was a little choked. People's hearts are made of flesh, not to mention that it has been six years. How could she not have any emotion at all? How could she not be moved.
But no matter how moved she was, no matter how close her heart was to His Majesty, she would never forget her mission.
Chu Yu suddenly fell into a deep sleep again. His consciousness was awake and blurred for a while. At this moment, he felt extremely weak and just wanted to sleep for a while.
Mei Zhu didn't speak, but her eyes suddenly became moist. After so many years, His Majesty's body was already on the verge of death, but now it was finally revealed.
Her mission was finally complete.
But she felt that her heart ached suddenly. What was there to be sad about? She had never forgotten her mission for so many years, and now she was almost successful. She should be happy!
She is from Northern Qi, her home is in Northern Qi, it has never been this place, and she doesn't care what will happen to her after things are done, most likely she will die.
But it doesn't matter, as long as she successfully completed her task.
Just consider it as compensating for him with your life.
…
"There are too many things happening in the harem, it's really unlucky!"
The Queen Mother lay on the hospital bed and looked at Zheng Yinghuan with a rather impatient tone.
Since the appearance of the concubine, there has been some unrest in the harem, but the concubine is of no use at all and cannot manage the harem well.
"What the Queen Mother said is," Zheng Yinghuan lowered his head humbly, "I don't know what to do."
She really didn't know what to do. Your Majesty treated Mei as a treasure. How dare she do anything else?
Not to mention that since she fell ill during this period, as long as Mei Concubine was around to serve her, even she, the noble concubine, had only seen her briefly.
"There hasn't been any happy event in the palace for a long time, maybe it would be good to use a happy event to make it happy."
The Queen Mother closed her eyes. In fact, she couldn't tell what was considered a happy event. What happy events could happen in the palace?
Zheng Yinghuan returned to Chuxiu Palace in a daze. Where could she go to find a happy event? Wasn't she herself the first and the second?
What's the use of having the right to control the harem? On the contrary, it adds a lot of troubles.
"What's going on, concubine?"
Chu Yi was practicing calligraphy when she heard Yuexiang coming over to say that the concubine was in a bad mood, so she hurried over.
Zheng Yinghuan could only tell the truth about what had just happened. The Queen Mother put pressure on her, so who could she put pressure on?
Sometimes I really would rather not have the right to control the harem and just be an ordinary concubine. Why have I been scolded by the Queen Mother all these years?
The Queen Mother blamed her for not being able to manage the harem well, and she also blamed herself for being so powerless, but what should she do? Should she be allowed to disobey His Majesty?
how can that be possible? What can be done?
"It turns out it's because of these things," Chu Yi was relieved, just because this matter can be solved quite easily.
"Yier may have any good ideas?"
Zheng Yinghuan looked at her daughter and felt that she had found some comfort. As her son grew up, it was difficult to express many things clearly, but her daughter was the only one who was so considerate.
"I originally wanted to tell my mother and concubine something, but it was delayed because of these things. Unexpectedly, it came in handy today."
Chu Yi smiled and said, I didn't expect that Chu Yan still had her own uses, and she could actually be of such a big help at this moment.
"Sister Yan told me before that she and Gu Xiao from the Duke's Mansion were in love with each other. She wanted to tell her mother and concubine to ask her father to grant them a marriage so that the lovers could finally get married. I didn't expect this. Now that it has been of such great use, isn’t this a happy event?”
Chu Yi has never felt that Chu Yan is so useful as she does now. Doesn't she like that man? Let them have lovers and get married eventually, so that they can help their mother and concubine solve a problem, otherwise they will always be scolded by the Queen Mother.
"That's it. Even so, I will immediately tell Your Majesty and the Queen Mother that there has never been a happy event in the harem!"
Zheng Yinghuan breathed a sigh of relief. Wasn't the Queen Mother deliberately making things difficult for others? Where could she find a happy event?
Unexpectedly, her daughter helped her solve an urgent need. She was really a good daughter. She had helped her countless times since she was a child. The thing she regretted the most was giving birth to such a good daughter!
After the last incident, Chu Yan was depressed for a long time. Every day she looked at the injury on her forehead carefully, fearing that there would be any traces left.
Day after day, she felt more and more unsettled in her heart, fearing that things would change. On this day, Chu Yi sent someone to take her to Chuxiu Palace. They were all jumping around.
I don't know if this is good news or bad news. According to Chu Yi's gloomy and uncertain mood, this is probably not good news, and her heart suddenly sank.
"What are you doing with a mournful face all the time? You are about to get married soon. Is it possible that you still have to cry on your face at that time?"
Chu Yi sarcastically said, I really don't know how the two of them fell in love with each other. With Chu Yan being so soft and weak, what on earth do you like about her?
But this is none of their own business. The two of them can help the mother and concubine solve this problem, which means it is useful.
"What did sister say? Get married?"
Chu Yan raised her head suddenly, as if she couldn't believe it. Could her dream finally come true? Can she finally be with the man she likes?
All this happened so suddenly that she didn't react for a long time.
"Didn't you tell me yourself that you like him? In this case, I told the mother-in-law. The mother-in-law will report to the father and the queen mother. The queen mother needs a happy event to offset the bad luck in the palace. It must be Will agree."
Chu Yi nodded indifferently. If you want to get married, then go ahead. As for what will happen after you get married, that is your own business.
"Thank you sister for your kindness!"
Chu Yan cried with joy and knelt down heavily on the ground to thank her. No matter what, at this moment, she was really happy, her dream finally came true!
I remember so many years ago when I cried aggrievedly when I was a child, and I remember that gentle and comforting voice. Now I can finally be with the man I like!
God was finally willing to give her some good luck, and he would not treat her poorly forever.
"Now that I have told the concubine, there can be no mistakes in it. Today I will give you the concubine's order to leave the palace. You go to the Duke's Mansion to meet Gu Xiao and tell everything about the two of you. Let’s make it clear and don’t let anything embarrass my mother and concubine when the time comes!”
Chu Yi thought things through clearly and asked the two of them to communicate with each other just in case.
But don't wait until the mother and concubine bring up this matter, and there are voices of opposition from the Duke's Mansion. Doesn't this mean that the mother and concubine will not be able to step down?
"Yes, I listen to my sister on everything."
Chu Yan stood up and lowered her head shyly, her heart beating violently. She didn't know what to say or where to start after she left.
To say that her dream for so many years has finally come true, to say that she has been thinking about it for so many years, and to say that she is extremely looking forward to the days after getting married.
Her dream has finally come true, and her good days are finally coming.
"Remember, since the mother-in-law has reported this matter to the father and the queen mother, it means that no mistakes can be made, otherwise you will be in trouble!"
Chu Yi waved her hand, and Yuexiang had already given the token to Chu Yan.
"Don't worry, sister, you won't go wrong!"
Chu Yan took the token with a happy face.
On the carriage leaving the palace, her heart was beating wildly. She would soon be able to tell the good news to her beloved man.
I really look forward to Gu Xiao’s reaction after hearing the news. She will definitely be very happy!
