Chapter 266 Rebirth

"Ridiculous, where does she think this is! The imperial palace is not Prince Kangyu's mansion, not a place where she messes around. Tell Bitao about the matter, and she will take care of it!"

Ning Yuezhao was struggling with an inexplicable emotion at the moment, and when she heard that Shi Wanyao was crying in the imperial garden, she was even more disturbed.

Seeing that the palace servant was still standing there, Jiang Nian glanced over, "It's just an offshoot prince's concubine, who doesn't even know this bit of decency, His Majesty's merciful punishment for a big crime of disrespect. Don't you want His Majesty to coax her personally!"

"Yes..." The palace man's expression changed, and he immediately backed out.

Xiao Jingtian also sensed that Ning Yuezhao's attitude was wrong, but before he could open his mouth, Ning Yuezhao was already a little tired and said: "I'm not feeling well, and Xiao Qing has worked hard day and night, so go back to the house to rest first."

Xiao Jingtian moved his lips, but he didn't say anything after all, he just bowed his hands and left.

Jiang Nian recruited other palace servants in the palace, "Go and ask Doctor Fu to come over!"

"No need!" Ning Yuezhao raised her hand to stop, "Maybe it was too late to read the booklet last night, so I'll just take a nap in the afternoon."

Jiang Nian said nervously: "What's wrong with you? I think you look very bad."

Ning Yuezhao withdrew her hand and tried to smile, "It's okay, just get some sleep and you'll be fine."

After finishing speaking, she got up and walked towards the apse with Zhu Yun's support.

Looking at her leaving back, Jiang Nian felt a mixture of weirdness and uneasiness in his heart.

Jing Ming walked up to him, "His Royal Highness, women's minds are sometimes like this. When His Majesty wakes up from a nap, you can coax him."

Jiang Nian pursed his lips and said nothing, but ordered today's paper to be sent to Qifeng Palace for his review.

Seeing that his expression was not gloomy, Jing Ming closed his mouth wisely, followed Jiang Nian's pace to the study obediently, and waited on the pen and ink.

After a while, Bitao asked to see her outside the study.

Jiang Nian put down the notebook and asked her to come in.

"Slaves see Your Highness!"

"My aunt is free."

After Bitao stood up straight, she said respectfully, "His Royal Highness, this servant has ordered someone to send the princess back to the palace."

Jiang Qingnian smiled, "Let my aunt worry about it."

Bitao said indifferently: "Your Majesty let the slaves take charge of the palace affairs. This matter is just the duty of the slaves. I dare not take credit for it."

She is the highest female official who has experienced two generations of emperors. She has seen a lot of big women from aristocratic families, and she has also received the concubines of neighboring countries who accompanied the monarch to Daxing.

Bitao only asked lightly——

"According to the palace rules, those who make noise in the palace will have fifty rods. Is the empress concubine going to wait for the son to come back here after the punishment, or let the guards send you back to the mansion?"

Shi Wanyao, who was still making a fuss, turned pale instantly when she saw the imperial guards behind Bitao, "I am the concubine of the crown prince, pregnant with the grandson of Prince Kangyu's mansion, you can't treat me like this!"

"The prince breaks the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime, let alone you, the concubine! Besides, as a mother, it is your duty to protect the child in your womb, but you rely on your pregnancy to make noise in the palace, without the style of a royal concubine. , It was also done on purpose by your mother!"

Bitao's expression remained the same, just a few imperial guards suppressed Shi Wanyao's arrogance.

"What is this? The dignified son and concubine are so disrespectful in the palace!"

Jing Ming shook his head repeatedly and muttered, secretly thinking in his heart, he deserves to be a descendant of the offspring of a concubine, and he has no demeanor at all.

Bitao also looked down upon this couple in her heart. This concubine was born in a merchant and was surrounded by jewels and emeralds, but her behavior was vulgar and contrived, which was simply laughable.It's fortunate that His Majesty and the emperor's husband were so guarded against King Kangyu before, but judging from the virtues of the son and concubine, this King Kangyu is probably not a very clever person.

Jiang Nian glanced at the two with disdainful expressions on their faces, and said calmly: "Send more people to keep an eye on the palace, and report any disturbances."

"Yes."

Although I don't know why Jiang Nian is still so cautious, but I think there is nothing wrong with acting cautiously.

At this moment in the sleeping hall, Ning Yuezhao was lying on the bed but didn't feel sleepy at all, she just opened her eyes and looked at the embroidery on the ceiling.

Now that Xiao Jingtian has surrendered, and half of his military power has been taken back, it is only natural to go west to show his might, but Xiao Jingtian's words suddenly touched a chord in her heart, and she always felt that something was ignored by her.

There was a slight sound of footsteps outside. Ning Yuezhao had excellent hearing due to her martial arts practice, and the bedroom was extremely quiet at the moment. She could hear that Lan Sha had returned, and Shi Wanyao's matter should have subsided.Anyway, with Jiang Nian around, there was nothing wrong with him.

Thinking of this, she sat up from the tent, "Come here."

Zhu Yun and Lan Sha heard the commotion inside, and hurried to the front of the tent, "Your Majesty?"

Ning Yuezhao stretched out her slender hand and opened the brocade curtain, "I can't sleep, so bring the books sent by the Imperial Academy yesterday."

"Yes."

Lan Sha hurriedly helped her set up the brocade tent, fixed it with gold hooks, and took a few more brocade pillows for her to put behind her.

As an emperor, diligence is a must, and the Imperial Academy will send some books for Ning Yuezhao to read every few days.

At this moment, Zhu Yun had already brought the books over, and Ning Yuezhao flipped through the books to choose, when suddenly the cover of a book caught her attention.

"Rebirth?" Ning Yuezhao frowned, "Why would the Imperial Academy send such a book?"

Lan Sha frowned when she heard the name, "Why does it sound like the name of a folk tale?"

Zhu Yun said: "I have heard from the little eunuch that this book is a book that is popular outside the palace during this time!"

Her voice was faintly excited. Although Ning Yuezhao also had a hobby of listening to stories, and Jiang Nian would go out with her to listen to a passage or two of storytelling in the Fengchalou in his spare time, but the Imperial Academy actually published such a book in a grand manner. Pass it to the emperor, isn't this telling everyone that His Majesty the Emperor is not doing his job properly?
"The Hanlin Academy is so bold!" Lan Sha immediately darkened her face. She was about to take the book from Ning Yuezhao and go to the person in charge of delivering the book today to settle accounts, but she saw that Ning Yuezhao flipped through other books and found the book The name and content are normal.

She returned the other books to Zhu Yun's hand, "Zhou Cheng has always been prudent in his work, someone handed this book to me with ulterior motives, presumably there is some information to reveal to me, so it doesn't hurt to take a look."

"Let the slaves come!" Lan Sha cautiously took the book from Ning Yuezhao's hand, shook it carefully, and flipped through it, there was no note in it.

"Maybe it's about the content." Zhu Yun said with a little hope, "Why don't you let the slaves read it to His Majesty!"

Ning Yuezhao gave her a sideways glance, "You want to read the script, right?"

The little thought was broken, Zhu Yun lowered her head in embarrassment, "The servant also wants to share the worries for His Majesty."

Ning Yuezhao motioned to Lansha, she adjusted a comfortable position and lay half down, "Give her the book."

Zhu Yun excitedly took the storybook and started to read it.At first, she could pay attention to whether there were any problems between the lines, but then she was gradually attracted by the plot, and the more she read, the more energetic she became. Even Lan Sha, who has always been self-sufficient, was also attracted by the story.

After reading a book, Zhu Yun still felt unfinished, but looking up, His Majesty had already fallen asleep on the bed.

"Is it because I read too boringly?" Zhu Yun was a little helpless, why did His Majesty fall asleep.

Lan Sha stepped forward, gently supported Ning Yuezhao, let her lie down, and covered her with a brocade quilt. After putting down the brocade tent, she looked back at Zhu Yun helplessly, "Your Majesty is a person with a heart for the country, how could you Like us, are you attracted by this kind of story about the short story of the parents and the love of the children?"

Zhu Yun wanted to say that in the past, when His Majesty and the imperial concubine went out to the teahouse, they were also very happy to hear it... Then she thought about it, a woman who is surrounded by the world, and her husband who loves Zhilan Yushu and has no regrets is by her side , How can you still be attracted by these fabricated stories?His Majesty was probably not attracted by those storytelling in the past, but because he was always happy to be accompanied by His Royal Highness.

Zhu Yun and Lan Sha withdrew from the dormitory, but unexpectedly ran into Jiang Nian who came walking.

"See Your Royal Highness!" The two saluted with blessings.

"Pingshen." Jiang Nian raised his hand to avoid their salute, and smiled, "What makes you so happy?"

Zhu Yun said: "Yesterday, the Hanlin Academy sent a book of scriptures. Your Majesty asked the servant to read it to her. I don't want the servant to read too boringly. Your Majesty fell asleep after listening."

She stuck out her tongue and said awkwardly: "This servant thinks this book is quite interesting."

Jiang Nian couldn't help smiling, his eyes fell on the book in Zhu Yun's hand, "The Imperial Academy is really bolder, dare to hand any book to His Majesty."

Although his words were harsh, his tone was not angry.

Zhu Yun saw that the emperor's husband was easy-going, so she continued: "This book is about a woman who was framed by her concubine, so she was misunderstood by her husband to have an affair with others. In the end, this woman died of injustice. God has eyes, let this woman Back when she was newly married, she was framed by her concubine and fell into the water, and she suffered a serious illness. After this woman was reborn, she fully realized her stupidity in the past. With the advantage of knowing the past, she defeated the concubine step by step. Conspiracy, to win the heart of the husband, the villain deserves what he deserves, and the woman lives happily in the end."

Zhu Yun spoke as fast as a bead, and told the story simply and cracklingly.

Hearing the words "return to the past", Jiang Nian seemed to be struck by lightning, his pupils shrank slightly, the smile on his lips froze, and gradually disappeared, replaced by a serious look on his face.

Lan Sha noticed that the emperor's husband's face changed slightly, and hurriedly tugged on Zhu Yun, and stopped her words.

"Your Highness, the slaves have shallow eyes and like these shallow stories. You should not be as knowledgeable as the slaves!" Lan Sha hurriedly pleaded guilty.

"Your Majesty, after listening to this story, what is your reaction?" Jiang Nian admired himself for being able to speak calmly at this time.

"My servant was so engrossed in reading that I didn't notice when His Majesty fell asleep, and I don't know how much Your Majesty has listened to..."

Jiang Nian took a deep breath. When he tightened his fists, he felt his palms were wet. He said in a deep voice, "Go to the Imperial Academy to check how this book got to the imperial court!"
