The First Empress - Chapter 167

Chapter 167 Red Packet Sachet

‘”I think it’s better to suppress it. Elder Lan Zhenglin was an unshakable pillar of the kingdom in the previous dynasty. The so-called celebrity seekers were drunk in the dynasty. I, a woman, also saw this. Elder Lan’s relationship is intertwined and cannot be easily shaken now.” Ling Long smiled and said.

Hearing this, Huiqi clapped his hands in admiration and said, “Just continue. You have seen through the crux of the matter, and with your insights, I can make up for it. It is rare to see a woman as intelligent as you in the government and the public. Tell me, I will not blame you.”

Hearing this, Linglong felt relieved and continued, “According to this concubine, the harem is currently tense. The relationship between the Empress and Lan Zhaoyuan is like a crossbow arrow on the verge of exploding. If this side is not comforted properly, it is also very dangerous. Therefore, this concubine feels that there is only one way to stabilize the previous dynasty and restrain the harem.”

Huiqi’s eyebrows curved, and his suggested nose slightly tilted upwards. “You say, I’ll see if you and I can coincide?”

“It is not appropriate to coincide. It is probably possible to end up in the same place by different routes. This concubine thought that it would be better if she did not make a move. She should have pretended that she did not see this memorial. What does the Emperor think?”

Hui Qi looked at Linglong and noticed that Linglong wasn’t dressed up much today, but her face was still as white as jade and her face was as beautiful as morning. He smiled and patted his thigh, saying, “Sit down.”

When Linglong saw that there was no one around, she naturally obediently sat in Hui Qi’s embrace. At this moment, Hui Qi suddenly turned around and the red packet on his belt suddenly cracked. Linglong hurriedly picked it up. Hui Qi smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter.” Then, she handed a small silver scissors to Linglong and said, “Help me vent my anger?”

The snow outside the window gave off a faint soft halo, Huiqi couldn’t help but kiss Linglong’s finger. Linglong held the scissors and cut the memorial into pieces like last time. Then, she threw it into the basket. Then, she broke her face and smiled, “Your Majesty’s red packet sachet broke. Your Majesty’s concubine will make a brand new one for Your Majesty today. Would Your Majesty like Mo-Li flower fragrance or ambergrance?”

Huiqi’s eyes looked at Linglong’s face. Linglong hurriedly reached out and touched her nose. She didn’t know what Huiqi meant. Did she not wash her cheeks today? A pear whirlpool appeared on Huiqi’s cheeks and said, “You really know how to do things. I will ask you if I have any questions in the future. I allow you to always speak frankly. Can you do it?”

Hearing this, Linglong said, ‘”Your Majesty, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. This is the old rule. Please take back your orders. How can you, Linglong He De, be able to guide the world? No, Your Majesty-” Linglong waved her hand again and again as if she wanted to authorize herself to do so.

Hui Qi held Linglong’s delicate hand and said, “Are you pale today or are you frightened by me? I won’t say anything about it in the future, but sometimes I’m also a fan of the current situation. It’s not wrong for you to help me come up with an idea.”

Linglong managed to get through with great difficulty. She was naturally sweating happily in her heart. She held onto the red sachet and said, “What do I know if I don’t listen to things outside the window? It’s just that I can make some small things. Or is it the most important thing to make red sachet for the emperor?”

Hui Qi was also delighted when he heard this, and his eyes were faintly blue with seawater. He said, “Do you know how to embroider a mandarin duck with its neck crossed and a lotus with its pedicel crossed?”

“Yes,” Linglong nodded her head and held the red packet of incense sachet. “What does the Emperor think of the cross-necked mandarin duck on the one hand and the parallel flower on the other?”

Hui Qilian nodded, “Very good.”

Huiqi kissed Linglong’s cherry lips and said, “There are still a lot of them. I’ll play with you after I’m done with them. Sit down and help me heat up the fire in the earth dragon and mill the ink for me.”

Linglong smiled and said, “The emperor is the emperor of the Ninth Five-Year Plan. Naturally, this concubine is here to serve the emperor.”

After a while, the mountains of memorials had been swept away. Linglong saw that today’s mission had been completed. She hurriedly took her leave and walked out. She originally planned to go to Cloud Phoenix Hall, but she met Perrin outside. Perrin did not avoid walking over and saying, “The Empress asked this servant to welcome her here.”

Linglong nodded, “Let’s go.”

Not long after, the two of them arrived at Kun De Palace. Ji Zhu Hua greeted them and said, “There should be a situation today. Tell me, this palace will listen.”

Because of the cold weather, Pei Lan walked away and closed the windows to the side. Linglong felt much warmer, so she told Ji Zhuhua everything that happened in the morning. After she finished speaking, Ji Zhuhua looked at Ji Zhuhua. Ji Zhuhua nodded and said, “This palace had long expected that Lan Zhenglin was now a bark bug of the Dali Dynasty. Almost everyone had to kill him, but there was nothing wrong with it.”

Linglong smiled and said, “Actually, it is not difficult to catch the wrong place. Unfortunately, we are the women of the harem, so there is nothing we can do.”

“Actually, the previous dynasty was also lacking in strength,” Ji Zhu’s gorgeous face hesitated slightly. However, he quickly regained his composure. Linglong nodded her head and said, “A person always walks through the night. He always walks. One day, he will encounter ghosts. In fact, there is no need for the Empress to be afraid. One day, the tail of a fox will show itself. Now, the Emperor clearly does not take the old man of the Blue Pavilion seriously, so the Empress should not be afraid of anything.”

Linglong looked at Ji Zhuhua. Ji Zhuhua was as divine as Qiu Hui covered in frost. Her noble smile hung at the corner of her mouth and she said, “Even so, how many people can wait for a long time?”

The heating in the room made Ji Zhuhua’s pale cheeks melt with blood. Linglong sat for a while before she prepared to leave. Ji Zhuhua saw the sachet in Linglong’s hand and said, “Are you planning to make a sachet recently?”

Everything Dali used towards the Son of Heaven should be bright yellow. Ji Zhuhua did not react to Linglong’s request to make an incense sachet for the Emperor. He only asked casually. Linglong could not conceal it, so he could only say as usual. After Ji Zhuhua finished listening, he looked at Linglong with crystal eyes and said, “You are still young, you should pamper yourself properly. I will help you whenever I can help you.”

Linglong’s cheeks flushed red and her starry eyes were like ripples. She hurriedly thanked Ji Zhuhua, but it was obvious that Linglong had noticed the loss in Ji Zhuhua’s eyes and the instant she was at a loss. Linglong couldn’t bear to arouse Ji Zhuhua’s sadness, so she said a few words and went back.

Linglong returned to Yunluan Palace and immediately asked Qin’er to go to the Shanggong Bureau to prepare these needles and threads of similar colors. They were currently making needles and threads. Chen Chongyi and Bao Luo came over. Princess Bao Luo had never seen anyone sew a sachet with their own hands. She could not help but hold the sachet. She looked at it with pity and embarrassment. Linglong glanced at Bao Luo. It had been two months since she had seen Bao Luo. The current Princess Bao Luo was even more beautiful. Her pair of extremely agile eyes were looking at her.

Linglong suddenly felt an inexplicable sadness in her heart. Perhaps he had reached the hidden residence at this age. That year, the Rain Cherry Blossom was in full bloom. The girl’s feelings were always poetic. Linglong didn’t know what she thought, but she was a little dumbfounded. She accidentally pierced her finger. Paulo hurriedly held Linglong’s hand. “Are you alright, Mother Bu?”

Linglong looked at Bao Luo and tidied up the incense sachet that she had just started to make. She said, “It’s fine. Let Mother Bu take a look at you. She’s seventeen now, isn’t she?”

Princess Baoluo stood in a jade pavilion and looked around Linglong carefully. After Linglong asked, Baoluo smiled brightly and said, “Next month will be seventeen years old.” Linglong’s expression suddenly twitched. She looked outside and said, “Can you help Bu Mother go to the Shanggong Bureau and get some golden threads?”

Although Princess Baoluo did not know the reason, she still nodded her head and walked out. Linglong felt that Princess Baoluo’s appearance was good. She could be considered to be one of the best among the concubines and Princess Di Ji. When Linglong thought of her age, her heart couldn’t help but tighten slightly.

Chen Chongyi’s gloomy and colorless face was filled with a worried smile. “After next month, she will be seventeen years old. According to the usual practice, Linglong, you know that. Sister, help sister, right?”

As she spoke, Chen Chongyi knelt down. Linglong quickly helped Chen Chongyi up and said, “Sister, don’t be anxious. The boat will naturally straighten up when it reaches the bridge. We’ll think of a way now. At this critical juncture, we can find out what’s missing. Don’t mend the situation by then. Do you have any good ideas, sister?”

Chen Chongyi’s eyes flickered like stars, but she almost shed tears. “What can be done? It’s just a short while. The most important thing is to see the emperor and sister. I’m afraid that Bao Luo really got hit this time.”

The corner of Linglong’s mouth curved upwards. She looked at Chen Chongyi and said, “No, sister will definitely think of a way to give sister the best of both worlds. First, she won’t let Princess Baoluo go far away to get married. Second, she will let Baoluo stay by your side with her filial piety. What do you think, sister?”

“Ah!” Chen Chongyi sighed melancholily. “Seeing that Paulo is getting older and older, Regardless of whether it was the public or the harem, “It’s already the general trend for this woman to stay. Sister is not reluctant to part with Bao Luo, but you also know that those princesses who were sent over by the Dali Dynasty are simply not treated as humans. Sister is only afraid that Bao Luo’s life will be hanging in another place. It would be better to end this life early.”

Chen Chongyi’s lips curled into a sad smile. Linglong did not think so. She held onto Chen Chongyi’s hand and said, “Sister, think about it and you’ve come over. Is this little calamity really impossible to overcome? Sister will definitely think of a way. Sister, don’t worry.”

Chen Chongyi naturally believed in Linglong’s methods and abilities. However, his daughter’s heart was naturally filled with melancholy. Princess Baoluo’s delicate and beautiful face appeared outside the door. She kept shouting for the golden thread to be sent over. Linglong smiled and let Baoluo sit down. She gave Chen Chongyi a needle and said, “This red packet sachet belongs to the Emperor. If it’s done well, it will naturally be useful. Sister, think about it.”

Chen Chongyi’s cheeks flushed red as she took the embroidered needle and embroidered the embroidered pattern on it with Linglong.

After a while, Baoluo was tired. After looking at it for a while, she felt that it was meaningless and went back early. Linglong warned Baoluo and waved her hand. Baoluo’s beautiful face had a knowing smile, and then she waved her hand and walked away like a bird.

“Sister, have you heard of His Majesty’s words? Has any foreign country come to kiss him this year?” Chen Chongyi asked when she saw Baoluo leave.

Linglong frowned and thought for a while, but she didn’t hear Huiqi mention anything like this. She shook her head and said, “I haven’t heard of it yet, but there will probably be a foreign country paying tribute in the new year. It’s hard to say at that time.”
