Chapter 359 Burial of the Concubine VS Ruthless Romantic Emperor 7
Yu Yao spent the whole day bored in the yard.
After dinner, she lay lazily in the yard admiring the scenery, secretly wondering whether Emperor Jing would send someone to look for her
As expected, not long after, A chubby little eunuch, Xiao Fuzi, dressed in standard eunuch clothes, came to her yard with small steps.
On his round face, his small eyes were narrowed into slits. He flicked the whisk in his hand, with a somewhat ambiguous smile on his face, and said: "Miss Yu, the emperor has invited you. You move to the palace, the emperor has been waiting there for a long time, please tidy up and go over.”
Yu Yao stood up slowly and responded politely: "Please wait a moment, father-in-law. I will tidy up and go over immediately."
Xiao Fuzi stood there and said politely: "It's okay. , I’m waiting here, I hope the girl will hurry up.”
She nodded slightly and turned back to the house.
The candlelight in the room swayed gently, reflecting a warm atmosphere.
She looked at the bronze mirror carefully, gently stroked her hair, and after confirming that her makeup was perfect, she followed Xiao Fuzi to Emperor Jing's palace.
When she stepped into the palace, a breath of ambergris hit her face, mixed with the light incense, which made people feel excited involuntarily.
As soon as she crossed the threshold, a force suddenly came from behind and pulled her into his arms, domineering yet gentle.
She was startled, and instinctively struggled. She quickly realized who it was, and a pleasant smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Your Majesty, are you..."
" Yu Yao pretended to be surprised, but there was a bit of coquettishness in her voice, and her attitude of refusing to welcome was just right.
Emperor Jing Rong Yuan chuckled, and that laughter seemed to penetrate people's hearts, bringing endless temptation and pampering.
"You know what you're asking, what do you think I want to do?"
As he said that, with a slight force, he threw her whole body on the soft and spacious dragon bed, and he followed closely. Finally, he pressed up.
"Your Majesty..."
She stretched out her hand and pushed his chest gently, but she still wanted to speak, her eyes were both shy and provocative.
She bit her lip lightly, like a bud waiting to bloom, her expression was just right, but it was extremely seductive.
Rong Yuan chuckled, with a charming smile in his deep peach blossom eyes, which was so hot that it seemed to melt people.
He raised his chin slightly, with a playful smile on his lips, "Little goblin, weren't you quite bold last night? Now you are feeling shy.
The blush on Yu Yao's cheeks Even more intense, he hooked his fingers on the man's collar, and said in a soft and sweet voice: "Your Majesty, last night...last night the moonlight was so charming and bewitched people's hearts. ”
She untied his robe without leaving a trace, and opened the skirt, revealing his snow-white muscles and beautiful mermaid lines.
Her fingertips slid gently on Rong Yuan's neck, like drizzle gently brushing the petals of spring flowers, bringing endless teasing.
Rong Yuan's eyes became deeper and deeper. He gently held the woman's troubled hand and pulled her closer. Their breaths were intertwined, and the air was filled with indescribable emotions.
"What a witch. Even if you use all your tricks to seduce people, your father will not be unknown and be forced to be buried."
Yu Yao heard that Emperor Jing When she mentioned the late emperor, a complicated emotion flashed in her eyes, but she quickly covered it up.
She wasn't teasing him, but hooked her arm around Emperor Jing's neck and said softly: "Your Majesty, let's not talk about the past. Now Yao'er only has the Emperor in her heart."
Rong Yuan looked at her affectionate eyes and listened to her words. Although he knew that she was so obedient and said these flattering words just to survive, this did not prevent him from being happy when he heard it.
He raised his lips and smiled, kissed her gently on the forehead, and said softly: "Since you are my woman, I will naturally not treat you badly. After the filial piety period, I will give you a response. "He has a certain status."
He is not worried at all that anyone will recognize Yu Yao's identity.
This woman has always been unknown in her father's palace, and she has used pollen to cover up her appearance all year round. I'm afraid not many people can recognize her.
As for those people in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, they are very strict with their mouths, and he has already given the order, and no one dares to tell the truth.
Listening to his words, Yu Yao's beautiful eyes flashed with surprise.
This was considered a promise from the emperor, and of course she was very happy at the moment.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, you are so kind to me."
She happily held Rong Yuan's handsome face and kissed her, very proactively. Rong Yuan was amused by her sudden enthusiasm and was in a great mood, "You little girl, you are so enthusiastic today."
As soon as he finished speaking, he leaned over and kissed her, then responded.
The candlelight swayed, reflecting on the man and woman on the dragon couch, like a pair of immersed mandarin ducks.
The late emperor's coffin stayed in the palace for seven days. The solemn and heavy coffin was carved with exquisite patterns, and every pattern seemed to tell the late emperor's achievements and majesty.
On the day of the burial, it was dawn and the entire palace was enveloped in a solemn atmosphere.
The eunuchs and palace maids were dressed in plain clothes, with their heads lowered, and their footsteps were light and slow as they shuttled between the palaces.
Emperor Jing was dressed in plain silk, with a white filial piety crown on his head and a solemn expression.
He led the royal family, civil and military officials to the main hall where the late emperor's coffin was parked.
As the ceremony officials sang and drank, the funeral ceremony slowly began.
The huge coffin was slowly lifted up, and the late emperor's remains were covered with layers of brocade, looking solemn and distant.
Yu Yao, dressed in plain clothes, stood in the crowd, looking at the past that was about to be sealed forever with complex eyes, and her heart was full of mixed feelings.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew by, picking up a few fallen leaves, and the air seemed a bit eerie.
The team carrying the coffin moved forward slowly, leaving the palace in a mighty manner and heading to Dongling for burial.
Behind the funeral procession, there were twenty or thirty coffins, all of which were for the burial of concubines.
They will also be buried together when the time comes.
Yu Yao stood at the height of the imperial city, watching this scene from a distance, feeling a little thankful in her heart.
If she hadn't timed her journey through time and fought hard, she might have been lying in a coffin like those of the late emperor's concubines.
Watching the funeral procession gradually go away, the dull atmosphere seemed to still permeate the air.
She sighed softly and turned back to her yard.
In the following days, the palace became extremely quiet because of the burial of the late emperor.
Emperor Jing still did not arrange any specific things for Yu Yao, but just let her rest in the yard every day.
But at night, someone would be sent to take her there to sleep.
During the entire 27-day mourning period, except for the days when menstruation was coming, she was not called over and rested in the yard. The rest of the day and night, she took care of her.
Yu Yao sometimes couldn't help but wonder why this man had so much energy, and he wasn't afraid that one day he would die on a woman's belly.
In the blink of an eye, the period of filial piety passed, and the dull harem began to become lively. The concubines in the harem were all dressed up and waiting for the emperor to turn over their cards.
This month, the emperor has been fed by Yu Yao for a long time, and his interest has not dissipated. It is the heat of the fight, how can he have any thoughts to favor the concubines in the harem?
But keeping one's filial piety for such a long time without changing the brand will inevitably make people suspicious.
At night, the leader of the Jingshi Room, the eunuch, came to Emperor Jing's palace carrying a green-headed card.
Following them were more than a dozen little eunuchs. Each little eunuch held a tray in his hand, which was full of green-headed cards for the concubines in the harem.
The eunuch lowered his head and said cautiously: "Your Majesty, this is the green card for the concubines in the harem. Please turn over the cards."
Emperor Jing was being intimate with Yu Yao in the palace. , hearing the voice of the eunuch in the respect room, he frowned slightly, with a hint of impatience on his face.
He leaned lazily on the dragon couch and glanced over the eunuchs.
Seeing this, Yu Yao obediently withdrew from his arms and straightened her messy hair.
A cunning flash appeared in her eyes, and she said with a sweet smile: "Your Majesty, it has been a long time since the brand was turned over. I am afraid that everyone in the harem is looking forward to it. You should choose one."
As she spoke, she gently pushed Emperor Jing's arm.
Emperor Jing chuckled and reached out to hook her chin, "Little goblin, if I really choose, won't you be jealous tonight?"
