Empress snatches dried fish

Chapter 23

Geng Bai'an raised his eyebrows and shook his head innocently: "You have misunderstood me. In fact, the emperor likes you and wants to take you with you. But you have also seen that Tang Xiaohan and the others are... You are the lowest in status, indeed It's not good to take you over other people. Let alone you, even Yi Nian was reluctant, but her temperament and purpose are only hunting, so it didn't cause too much reaction from other concubines."

Hearing this, Yu Gan frowned slightly, and indeed nodded his head twice.

Even though every time she made insinuations before, Geng Bai'an always told her clearly that it was the emperor's intention, and even those things that were brought to Feiqiong Hall were ordered by the emperor to send her.Yu Gan always didn't believe it, after all, although there were not many people in the harem, the emperor would not just stare at her alone.

But this time she believed it.Not to mention anything else, just comparing the frequency with which the emperor ran to various halls, it is reasonable to want to take him with him.

Then leaving a position for other high-ranking concubines, and instead stuffing himself with the empress, the emperor's mind is not so difficult to understand.

However, Yu Gan was really reluctant to go.

Perhaps it was because she was used to being locked up in the inner courtyard since she was a child. She never liked places with many people, especially after that incident, she usually lived more reclusively. The hunting ground was really not suitable for her.And even though he nominally followed Geng Bai'an, if it was really the emperor's wish, it would only be more conspicuous at that time - unless he followed Geng Bai'an every step of the way during the autumn hunt.

But if the emperor ordered her to be with her, how could she not obey?

Seeing that Yu Gan lowered his head and did not speak, Geng Bai'an observed for a while, and found that she really didn't seem to want to go, so he patted her on the shoulder.

"Yu Gan, are you really unwilling to go?"

"...Empress Empress." Yu Gan didn't say clearly, he didn't know whether to go or not.Of course he didn't want to go, but Geng Bai'an just made Tang Xiaohan face in public for himself, if he really didn't go, he would offend two people at once.

When she looked up, it was just Geng Bai'an's eyes, thinking in her heart whether this was Geng Bai'an taking this opportunity to bring hatred to herself again.

"Forget it, if you don't want to go, don't go, I will talk to the emperor later, don't worry too much about it."

Seeing her like this, Geng Bai'an deliberately slowed down his speech in order not to put too much pressure on Yu Gan: "The emperor didn't ask for your opinion because it was only a few days after this matter was decided, and he is too busy these days And I couldn’t get away to go to Feiqiong Hall. It was my fault for not asking you in advance, and I will pay attention next time.”

Geng Bai'an's tone and content were like a thunderbolt that woke up Yu Gan who was still struggling, she immediately grabbed Geng Bai'an's hand, and said firmly: "Empress Empress, Yu Gan will accompany you."

"Huh?" Geng Bai'an didn't understand where Yu Gan suddenly changed.

Yu Gan thought she didn't hear clearly, so he repeated: "Yu Gan is willing to accompany you."

Cui Xin, who was kneeling behind Yu Gan with her head bowed, sighed heavily in her heart—although she didn't know what her wife thought, but it must be the Empress Empress who threatened her implicitly between the lines, otherwise how could she change suddenly? Got an idea?

The more Cui Xin thought about it, the more she felt that what she said to her wife was too harsh, and she also understood why she said "it's fine if you don't get selected".Since I was a child, I was sold into the palace by my parents in exchange for money, and my wife didn't want to be selected, so it was obvious that she was also sold in by the family in exchange for benefits.

Oh, poor lady!

Different from Cuixin, although Suqin and Suqi don't know why their empress is so nice to Mrs. Yu Gan, they have already gotten used to her behavior after these days.Besides, they are not free to comment on the affairs of the masters, as long as they do what they ordered.

……

Geng Bai'an worked very fast, he only said in the morning that he wanted to make two clothes for her to move around, and when the evening was approaching, several people came to Feiqiong Hall to take her measurements.Probably because the time limit given by Geng Bai'an was not long, so just after measuring the size, several people left in a hurry.

The speed of coming and going was so fast that Yu Gan even thought he was hallucinating.

The day of Qiu Lie's trip is just seven days away, whether it is long or short, but Yu Gan, who is "following the queen" in name, does not need to prepare too much.Moreover, although there are many things in her palace, they are all inappropriate to bring. When the time comes, it will be enough to bring two newly made clothes and some daily necessities.

"Ma'am, what does this empress mean?" Cui Xin looked at the empty entrance of the palace, really not understanding.She said that the empress wanted to harm her wife, and she felt that the logic was reasonable, but she was really kind to her wife, at least the people who came just now were some of the best craftsmen in the Shangyi Bureau.

It's so weird.

"Who knows." Yu Gan shook his head, picked up a book and lay half down on the couch: "This time it seems that the emperor wanted it, but... well, we can only take one step at a time."

Yu Gan rubbed his stomach: "It's time, Cui Xin go pass the meal."

"Yes." As soon as Cui Xin turned around to go out, she almost bumped into a palace servant.She frowned and lowered her voice: "Why are you so bluffing? Our wife doesn't like this."

"Sister Cuixin, someone came from Mrs. Yu Qing's palace and said they wanted to call our wife over." The palace servants and eunuchs in Yu Gan's Palace knew that their master was often favored by those high-ranking people because he was valued by the emperor and empress. The most frequent concubine looking for trouble is Mrs. Tang Xiaohan.

Although Mrs. Yu Qing hadn't seen this much before, who knew if she would suddenly attack her?Therefore, every time people other than the emperor and empress came to Feiqiong Hall, everyone was terrified.

Cui Xin hurriedly went in and told Yu Gan, Yu Gan's expression immediately became a little impatient - sure enough, it was just announced in the morning that she would bring her along, and now someone is going to trouble her.But the other party's status is higher than his own, and he sent someone to pass the message, but he had to go.

"You let her come in and wait, and I'll change my clothes and go with her."

As soon as Yu Gan finished speaking, the palace servant in Yuqing Palace had already walked to the door of the house, and he spoke in a strange way: "Madam Yu Gan, don't change your clothes, my wife should be in a hurry."

Seeing her walk in casually, Yu Gan and the waiters in the hall all looked a little unhappy.Yu Gan is also a master, but she didn't wait for Tongchuan to enter the hall directly, and she didn't pay much attention to Feiqiong Hall.

Before Cui Xin opened her mouth to reprimand, the palace servant who came to deliver the message fell forward inexplicably.
