Chapter 301 I dare not forget, nor do I want to forget
Li Yuren was so angry that she was numb.
After being driven out from Yikun Palace to do work, he stood on the palace road for most of the day. Suddenly, he couldn't remember why he was so happy to come to Yikun Palace in the first place.
No.
He had not originally intended to come to the Yikun Palace. It was because something went wrong with Princess Xian'er's work, and her power was stripped away. She also had to drag all the servants in the Yikun Palace into paying back the money, so no one was willing to come, so he was kicked here by the Emperor.
But things are different now. As there is less and less he can do, Xian Zhuer... becomes less and less willing to talk to him.
Of course, it’s not that he doesn’t like to talk at all, but he can’t compare with Ling Yunche.
There was someone who was treated even colder than him - Hailan. Recently, she was forbidden to go to the main hall.
Li Yu's heart went cold: "Master Xian... is she the kind of person who decides how much attention and politeness she gives to others based on how useful they are?"
It was a hot day, but he couldn't help shivering and felt cold all over.
He wandered outside for a long time and did not go to the Imperial Medical Bureau at all. Although Doctor Li agreed to help last time, his mouth seemed to be poisoned. Anything he said made people want to find a hole to crawl into.
He didn't want to see him again or hear him say things like "Eunuch Li, you look depressed. This is due to liver qi disorder. Don't be petty in the future. Or you will die."
Before he knew it, Li Yu had walked to the vicinity of the Hall of Mental Cultivation again.
Jinzhong saw him from a distance, turned around and told Jinshou and Jinbao to serve carefully, then went outside: "Master, Master!"
Li Yu had no choice but to stop and turned to look at Jinzhong awkwardly: "I don't have anything to do, I just happened to pass by here."
Jinzhong smiled gently: "Master, if you have something to say, you can talk to your disciple. If you have nothing to say, I would also like to talk to you. Last time... Did Concubine Xian make things difficult for you again?"
Li Yu forced a smile: "Master Xian is always warm and friendly to others, why would she embarrass me?"
Jinzhong sighed, "Master, please stop pretending. If you were really living a good life, you wouldn't look old and have lost so much weight."
He frowned and said, "You look even younger now than when you were in the Yangxin Palace."
Li Yu couldn't help but touch his face: "Really? I... am old?"
Jinzhong's eyes were filled with pain: "Master, I really feel sorry for you. If you hadn't been so sincere for Master Xian, you wouldn't have ended up like this. Even if she thinks you are useless, she shouldn't treat you so badly!"
Li Yu's face turned pale: "Enough! Stop talking!!!"
He glared at Jinzhong angrily, wanting to warn him not to talk nonsense, but in his heart he felt that Jinzhong was just telling the truth.
He felt extremely uncomfortable and depressed, so he turned around and was about to leave.
Jinzhong held him back and said, "Master, please listen to me."
He lowered his voice and said, "The prince of the Yu family will come to the palace to plead guilty tomorrow. The Yangxin Palace and Qixiang Palace have been very busy recently. Please be patient and wait for a while. After this period, I will see if I can help you make arrangements and find you a new place."
Li Yu was shocked: "The harem cannot interfere in politics. Qixiang Palace... She is a concubine, and she still wants to meet the prince of the Yu family, right?"
Jinzhong was surprised at his sharpness: "Master, nothing can be hidden from you. Concubine Jia has always respected the prince. Recently, Concubine Jia has been favored again. She is pestering the emperor. Maybe she wants to meet the prince."
He lowered his voice a bit: "The emperor is probably not happy that she wants to see a man outside of his family. He has been in a bad mood recently. Master, just wait patiently. I, your disciple, will rescue you one day."
After that, he glanced in the direction of the main hall and suddenly said, "The emperor called me. Master, please be patient for now. Don't tell anyone what I tell you today. Just wait patiently. Remember! Don't tell anyone!"
After saying that, he hurried back.
When Jinzhong stood firmly at the door and finished talking to Jinshou in a low voice, he looked up and saw only Li Yu's hurriedly leaving back.
Jin Shou asked softly, "Will he tell his master?"
Jinzhong's eyes were dark: "He will say it. If he can't win favor over Ling Yunche, he will be very upset."
Jin Shou couldn't help but exclaim: "He really loves his master!"
Jinzhong glanced at him and said, "Don't talk nonsense."
But he smiled with the corners of his mouth raised. Although but...how could it not be?
He doesn't even want the only chance to escape from the hell pit of Yikun Palace, and is only thinking about making achievements and winning favor. If this isn't true love, what is it?
It can't be a crime of humiliation, right?
With a happy smile on his face, he suddenly said to Jin Shou, "Are there any more grapes from Persia that were brought into the palace? Send a plate each to the Queen and Lingzhu."
Jin Shou said softly: "The Emperor..."
Jinzhong said, "The emperor has personally instructed that the summer is long, and the empress and the princess are weak, so they need to be taken extra care of. You go first, and I will go and tell the emperor later."
Shinshou nodded, "Yes."
Jinzhong laughed and scolded, "Do you doubt me? I'll punish you to keep watch tonight."
Jin Shou's face flashed with helplessness, but his eyes were full of smiles. As long as his brother Zhong didn't lose his mind to lust like Li Yu, he would keep watch all night.
Jinzhong stood at the door for a while, calculated that it was about time, and then he quietly entered the hall carrying the dried tea.
There is an ice jar in the hall, which is very cool.
Hongli sat at the desk reviewing memorials, his brows furrowed, looking very unhappy.
He reached out his hand and found the tea that Jinzhong had just put down. It was right next to him. He scooped it up and took two sips. His frown relaxed a little. "It's the Snow-topped Green in the Imperial Concubine Ling's palace."
Jinzhong said softly, "The weather has been hot lately, so the Empress and the Imperial Concubine were probably worried that the tea you were drinking was not to your liking, so they sent us some Snow-topped Hancui."
Hongli thought of his wife and concubine, and his irritable mood was relieved a little: "The Queen and Concubine Ling are both good. ... Don't forget to keep an eye on the expenses of Changchun Palace and Yongshou Palace, and don't let the servants treat them harshly."
Jinzhong smiled and said, "I have remembered it all. I thought that the Empress and Consort Ling loved to eat grapes, so I just had a plate delivered to each palace."
Hongli laughed and scolded, "Look at how stingy you are! I don't like to eat those sweet things. Send all the grapes in the Yangxin Palace to the Queen and Concubine Ling... Remember to tell them not to eat too much and get an upset stomach."
Jinzhong smiled and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty, rest assured."
After a pause, he said softly, "Just now, Eunuch Li Yu came over, and I happened to see him. I saw that his brows were full of sorrow, so I went to ask him a few questions."
A trace of impatience flashed across Hongli's eyes: "What happened to Concubine Xian?"
Jinzhong said softly, "Perhaps because she saw you go to Qixiang Palace yesterday, she was a little angry, so she made Eunuch Li Yu angry. I was afraid that Concubine Xian would provoke Concubine Jia again, so I gave Eunuch Li Yu a few words, hoping that he could stop her."
Hongli sneered, "You are so kind that you have forgotten the time he beat you in the past!"
Jinzhong lowered his eyebrows and spoke in a gentle voice: "I have been lonely and helpless since I was a child. Master has helped me. Even though he scolded and beat me in the past, I still remember the kindness of this help. I dare not forget it, and I don't want to forget it."
