Mo Rongzhan's decision to choose a study companion for Ming Xi had already been made clear. Ye Zhen asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to arrange it. Taking advantage of the blooming plum forest in Baiyuan Garden, the Plum Appreciation Party was held in Baiyuan Garden three days later, and the wives of all families were invited to attend the banquet with their children.
Before that, she chose two big palace maids for Ming Yu.
Ming Yu originally had two palace maids by her side. They were selected in the Yuan Kingdom before. Their names were Xiang 'er and Zao' er. Only two of them could no longer keep an eye on Ming Yu, so Ye Zhen brought Ning Xiang and Han Lu to her side.
As for Ming Xi's side, Mo Rongzhan had arranged several eunuchs to follow him, so Ye Zhen did not need to worry about him anymore.
"I should be busy next." Ye Zhen sighed. "Jianjia and Hong Ying are waiting to be married. This Empress has sent people to prepare the dowry. When the time comes, I will send Jianjia to Qingzhou, and Hong Ying …"
Hong Ying, whose cheeks were flushed, immediately said, "Your Highness, this servant is not in a hurry."
"You are not in a hurry, but Shen Yi is anxious to death." Ye Zhen said with a smile, "Don't worry that you can't help this Empress after you get married. This Empress wants you to follow Hong Ling to the clinic."
Hong Ying froze for a moment. Go to the clinic?
"That's good, Hong Ying and this servant will be companions." Hong Ling winked at Hong Ying.
"Let Lu Ya and the others serve in the bedroom for the next few days." Ye Zhen said. In fact, she was reluctant to part with Hong Ying and the others, but these maids were loyal to her. If they stayed with her, they were doomed to be alone for the rest of their lives. She was reluctant to treat them like this.
Hong Ling responded with a smile and went down to inform the two maids, Lu Ya and Hong Ya.
Those who could enter the bedroom to serve were all big palace maids. In the future, they would become the confidants of the Empress. This was a bright future. After the little palace maids of Yong Shou Palace learned about it, they were all envious and jealous of Lu Ya and Hong Ya.
"Sister Lu Ya, you are going to move to a single room today." Two little palace maids looked enviously at Lu Ya who was packing her things, unable to hide the sourness in their tone.
"It's just convenient. In fact, it's the same everywhere." Lu Ya bowed her head and packed her things, not taking what the little palace maids said seriously.
"How is that the same? When Big Sister Hong Ying marries, you and Big Sister Hong Ya will be Her Ladyship's most valued palace maids. Perhaps …" The little palace maid winked ambiguously. "Perhaps you can even become a phoenix."
Just as she finished speaking, a beautiful woman walked in from outside the door. She coldly looked at the little palace maid. "What do you mean by flying up a branch and transforming into a phoenix?"
The little palace maid stuck out her tongue, then lowered her head and ran out.
"Qing," Lu Lu ya said, "Lu" Lu Lu Lu Family 'Shou, "Lu Lu"
"Hongwu Yan Yun Xuan Yu is a way." Yi by Xi Luo, Lu Lu is. Hong Ya snorted and went over to help Lu Ya pack up. "Now that Her Ladyship is willing to let her mother serve her, it doesn't mean that she completely trusts us. Lu Ya, it wasn't easy for us to survive. If it wasn't for Her Ladyship, we might have already become the playthings of those old eunuchs. Being able to serve Her Ladyship is our fortune."
"What are you talking about?" Lu Ya asked with a smile. She lowered her head. "Of course I know that we were saved by the Empress. I have always been grateful to the Empress."
When the Heavenly Consort first entered the palace, the palace was in chaos. She and Hong Ya were fancied by an old eunuch. That old eunuch relied on the fact that he had served in the palace for many years and thought that the Heavenly Consort would value him, so he bullied the little palace maids without restraint. Once, he wanted to molest them and was seen by the Heavenly Consort's palace maids, giving them a chance to survive in the palace.
Hong Ya said, "It's good that you know. Don't think about flying up the branches."
"Why would I think of this?" Lu Ya sighed. The Emperor was tall and handsome, one in a million, but who in this world could compare to the Empress? Moreover, the emperor doted on the empress so much, how could he like other women? She only wanted to properly serve the empress. Just like Hong Ling and Hong Ying, she would be satisfied. "Properly serve the empress. No matter if we leave the palace or stay, it won't be too bad."
"Okay." Hong Ya nodded in relief.
…
… …
Fifth Wangye brought his scoundrel son to see the Emperor. He wanted to personally ask for forgiveness. Mo Rongzhan had already heard about the hunting ground. Because they were all children, he didn't want to interfere. Although Ming Xi was young, he should know how to handle it. He had Fifth Wangye bring the child back. He was so busy that he couldn't even return to Yong Shou Palace, so he didn't have time to care about children.
"Your Majesty, Fifth Wangye is here again." Eunuch Fu came in with his head lowered.
Mo Rongzhan frowned slightly. He had told Fifth Wangye not to come yesterday. Why did he come to the palace again today?
"What business does he have?" Mo Rongzhan put down the memorial in his hands. His eyes swept to Ming Xi, who was reading at the side. This child was still focused on his book. Even Yan Xiaoliu, who was beside him, wasn't affected.
"Fifth Wangye brought the child here," Eunuch Fu said.
Then it was for the hunting ground. Mo Rongzhan said lightly, "Let him return."
"Yes," Eunuch Fu replied.
Mo Rongzhan stood up and walked to Ming Xi's side. "Ming Xi."
"En …" Ming Xi was completely focused on his book. When he heard someone call him, he only responded lightly. He didn't know who was calling him from behind.
"What are you reading?" Mo Rongzhan asked in a low voice.
Ming Xi didn't reply for a long time. When he finished reading the entire page, he raised his head. When he saw Mo Rongzhan standing beside him, he stood up. "Imperial Father."
Yan Xiaoliu also hurriedly stood up.
"Fifth Wangye brought Mo Lianbang here to ask for forgiveness. Go and see them." Mo Rongzhan rubbed his head.
"Who is Mo Lianbang?" Ming Xi frowned in confusion. He couldn't remember who it was.
Yan Xiaoliu reminded him in a low voice. "That day at the hunting ground, they called him Brother Bang."
Ming Xi remembered this name. However, he didn't really remember what that person looked like. "Imperial Father, why do you want to see him?"
"Your Fifth Uncle is worried that Brother Bang will offend you. Go and tell him," Mo Rongzhan said. He couldn't be bothered to see Fifth Wangye. When the time came, he would cry again. Two years ago, he wanted to ask for the concubine's son to be conferred the title of Crown Prince, but Mo Rongzhan rejected the request. In the end, he cried for two days and only gave up after being scolded by Mo Rongzhan.
"Alright then." Ming Xi's tone was obviously a little unwilling. He wanted to stay here and read more.
A smile flashed in Mo Rongzhan's eyes. The more his son grew up, the more he resembled him. When he was focused on something, he didn't want to be disturbed.
"Xiaoliu, let's go together." Ming Xi called Yan Xiaoliu along.
Yan Xiaoliu nodded. "Alright."
