Chapter 336
Now that I have just entered the palace, the emperor has arranged for me to stay in Chengqian Palace...
Could it be that the emperor already knows my feelings for him and that is why he treats me differently?
懿…
Concubine Yi silently recited her title in her heart and whispered, "He Xi, go in."
As soon as the master and servant entered the door, a middle-aged woman hurried towards them.
"I, Xiuhu, the head maid of Chengqian Palace, pay my respects to Noble Lady Yi. May your majesty be blessed with good fortune."
The Yehenara family was a large clan, and Concubine Yi was well-educated and had been taught by the palace maids for a long time, so she naturally understood the status of the person in front of her.
Hearing this, he quickly raised his hand and said, "Auntie, you're too polite. No need to be polite."
"Thank you, young master."
Xiu Hu thanked him, straightened up slightly, and said, "My lady's palace is in the east side hall of Chengqian Palace. Please come in."
Looking in the direction of Xiu Hu's finger, Concubine Yi's smile remained unchanged.
There were several pots of orchids outside the east side hall.
Without stopping, Concubine Yi asked casually, "Aunt Xiuhu, what is that orchid?"
"Your Excellency is too polite. I am not worthy of being called your Aunt. Please just call me by my humble name."
After answering, she continued, "I heard from the Imperial Household Department that these orchids were sent to Chengqian Palace by order of the Emperor himself yesterday. Could it be that Your Excellency also likes orchids?"
My little daughter's joy suddenly filled my heart.
But there was no trace of it on his face.
"Yes, I like orchids, too. Your Majesty has taken so much trouble. I really don't know how to repay you."
Xiu Hu smiled.
"Your Excellency has entered the palace and is so highly regarded by the Emperor. If she can give birth to a prince in the future, wouldn't that be the best reward?"
Xiu Hu seemed to have no taboos in her words, but she ended up making Concubine Yi blush.
I didn't know what to say for a moment, so I just stopped talking.
The group slowly walked in. Xiu Hu helped Concubine Yi sit down before she said again, "My lady, I will call your servants to come and greet you. Please wait a moment."
Concubine Yi sat down and turned to look at the various decorations in the hall, and a sweet feeling rose in her heart.
The layout of the hall does not appear to be magnificent at first glance, but it is very elegant.
It looks somewhat similar to the decoration of my own boudoir at home.
He Xi glanced at Concubine Yi's expression and said with a smile, "My lady, the Imperial Household Department is truly dedicated to its work. Knowing that you are a cultured person who loves poetry and books, they have arranged it to suit your wishes."
Concubine Yi glanced at He Xi.
I thought to myself.
Was it the Imperial Household Department's good judgment, or was it the Emperor's orders?
Just as I was daydreaming about this, Xiu Hu had already led several people in.
Looking at the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling below, Concubine Yi frowned slightly.
She has always been unwilling to deal with these trivial matters.
He turned around and looked at He Xi, who understood.
After walking up and talking to Xiu Hu for a few words, everyone hurriedly greeted them and got up to leave.
Of course, there will be no shortage of silver.
After a while, there were only three people left in the hall.
Xiu Hu curled the corners of her mouth, thought of her old sisters' instructions, and suppressed the strange feeling in her heart.
"There are three people entering the palace this time, but only you are the most favored. I heard that the layout of this palace was carefully arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs with the special instructions of the Emperor."
Concubine Yi's eyes lit up when she heard this. "Did the Emperor order it?"
Concubine Yi's expression was enough for Xiu Hu to understand what she was thinking.
Hearing this, he nodded quickly, "Yes, it was the emperor's personal order."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking so much trouble. I..."
"My lady, you are right. I have been serving in the palace for many years, but I have never seen a master who can be treated like this by the emperor."
Xiu Hu responded and was about to speak again when the young eunuch hurried in.
"My lady, Auntie, the rewards from the Yangxin Palace have arrived."
Xiu Hu hurriedly followed up with "Young Master..."
Before she could even begin to speak, Concubine Yi had already stood up and said, "Please come in quickly."
The young eunuch responded and went down. After a while, Li Yu led the people in.
As Li Yu announced the various rewards, Concubine Yi became more and more delighted.
