C14 Somnolence(2)

When Su Wu led the palace guards to patrol the imperial garden, he saw a beautiful scene of the Yi people in the water. The beauty wore a blue and silver cloak, and her hair was loose and tied behind her head. In the gently waving willow trees, the jade white railings, and the jade-green waters of the pond, the beauty seemed even more delicate and beautiful, and her color was extraordinary.

"Lord Commander?" The trusted aide beside him asked curiously when he saw Su Wu stop.

"Oh!" You guys continue, I still have some important matters to take care of. " Su Wu came back to reality.

"Yes." "Yes," the guards replied, and walked away with a single, powerful stride.

Su Wu looked at Shang Yun Mo who was not far away, but continued walking towards her. However, just as they were about to approach Shang Yun Mo, they were stopped by a figure. This servant greets Commander Su.

Shang Yunmo heard the commotion and turned around. Seeing that it was him, he frowned slightly. Su Wu was slightly displeased. If it were not for this meddlesome servant …

"Imperial Guard Commander Su Wu greets Imperial Concubine." Su Wu bowed and cupped his fist.

"No need for formalities." The moment Shang Yunmo thought of him, he knew that the culprit who had caused him to be trapped in this dark and devilish palace for the rest of his life was unwilling to stay here for even a second longer. Thus, he wanted to avoid him and leave.

"Empress, this subject has heard that you've been ill recently. I wonder if you're well now?" Su Wu stepped forward with a clear intention to stop him.

"Thank you for your concern, Commander Su. It's already well." Shang Yunmo was getting impatient.

"That day, an official of the Imperial Jade Hall left on orders. The Empress was in a difficult situation and was unable to help …"

"Commander Su is too serious, the emperor is in charge of everything."

"Then esteemed wangfei …" Su Wu could hear the isolation in Shang Yun Mo's tone, but he still did not wish to end this meeting.

"Empress, the wind is blowing. Go back to the palace and avoid it!" Li Fu could see that Shang Yun Mo was not pleased with Commander Su Wu. Although he had many questions, he still spoke out to resolve them.

"Then I'll take my leave first. Commander Su, do as you wish." Shang Yunmo took the opportunity to leave while the palace maid was supporting him.

"Empress …" Su Wu said unwillingly.

"Commander Su, may I have a word with you?" Li Fu blocked Su Wu's path.

"Who are you?" Seeing Li Fu repeatedly spoiling his plans, Su Wu asked roughly.

"To reply to Commander Su, this servant is the personal maid in front of the Empress." Li Fu was neither humble nor arrogant.

"What do you want?"

"Reporting to Commander Su, this servant dares, although you are guarding in the palace, you are still a foreign official. Conversation with the Empress like this seems somewhat inappropriate. " Although Li Fu's words were humble, they still contained a bit of power.

"What's that got to do with you? You are no more than a slave. I am a seven feet tall man, I do what I can to the best of my abilities. "

"Commander Su is right, a servant is only a lowly person. However, if you were to talk to my esteemed lady in such a manner in the eyes of an interested person, it would be hard to avoid bad words from coming out. "My esteemed mistress finally managed to stabilize herself in the palace with great difficulty, and barely escaped calamity recently. This servant was only bold enough to advise you after seeing how much the Commander cared about the esteemed one just now."

"I am only here on the orders of the empress dowager to help the imperial concubine in the palace more often." Su Wu tried his best to defend himself.

"This servant is overthinking it." "I hope Commander won't take it to heart." "Li Fu had already said what he wanted to say, so he didn't say much." This servant will take his leave now. "

Su Wu looked at Li Fu's departing figure and said, "He's a sincere person." And he regretted his abrupt behavior.

Because he had met the loathsome Su Wu, Shang Yunmo's little daughter's worries had disappeared without end. As soon as she returned to the palace, she heard reports from below that the empress dowager had sent someone to wait for her in the palace.

Shang Yunmo perked up immediately and strode into the hall.

It was an old friend.

The moment Shang Yunmo entered the main hall, he saw Senior Servant Ma standing at the side of the hall, waiting for him. Shang Yunmo immediately stepped forward. "Ma mama, what is the matter? Please come over personally and send someone from the palace."

Ma mama immediately bowed. "Greetings, esteemed imperial concubine." As soon as this old servant arrived at the palace, I was informed that you were out for a stroll. I thought that you had just grown up and should not be exposed to the wind, so I waited for you at the top of the hall. "

Senior Servant Ma did not directly answer Shang Yun Mo's question. Instead, she seemed to be hinting at something.

Something flashed through Li's mind, and she seemed to grab hold of it. Thus, Shang Yunmo gave a slight smile. "Thank you for your reminder, mama."

Senior Servant Ma saw that Shang Yun Mo had immediately understood what she meant and immediately expressed her purpose. "This old servant came to follow Esteemed Empress Dowager's imperial decree. Firstly, I wanted to see if Imperial Concubine was in good health, and Esteemed Empress Dowager had this old servant bring this Hundred Years Old Ginseng over to nourish her body." As he said this, he took a brocade box from the palace maid behind him and opened it. Inside was an old ginseng with a full beard and an excellent luster.

"Thank you mother for your love. I, Shang Yunmo, cannot thank you enough." It was a lie for Shang Yunmo to say that he was not moved. Although there was no kinship between the imperial household and the empress dowager had taken advantage of her more than sincerely, the empress dowager had bestowed many precious medicinal ingredients upon her upon her upon her return from the Imperial Hall.

"The second thing is to give Esteemed Empress Dowager an order."

Shang Yunmo immediately knelt to receive the decree.

"The empress dowager decreed that we have the Yuen Sang family, who is a model of the Six Palaces, with a warm and respectful temperament. On the 5th day of the fifth month, it was the Dragon Boat Festival.

"Chenqie Yuanshang [1] accepts the empress dowager's imperial decree. Esteemed Empress Dowager has lived for thousands of years!" Shang Yunmo kowtowed in acknowledgement.

Ma mama immediately helped Shang Yunmo up. She approached Shang Yun Mo and whispered, "Esteemed Empress Dowager's meaning is for esteemed empress dowager to go to these noble gardens and let these maids know that Lin Tong isn't the sole ruler of this harem." Shang Yunmo nodded.

"Then this old servant will return to report to Esteemed Empress Dowager." Imperial Concubine must take good care of herself. " Ma mama patted Shang Yun Mo's hand.

"Shang Yun Mo will definitely not disappoint mother's mission." Shang Yunmo understood Ma mama's good intentions. However, the empress dowager was simply too impatient.

In the empress dowager's palace.

"To reply Esteemed Empress Dowager, I've already mentioned all that needs to be said." Ma mama said, "Leave everything to her."

"This person is in the harem! "She's usually forced herself to do so. Does she still want to live a peaceful life on An Yu's side?" The empress dowager knelt in front of the Buddha statue, a string of buddhist beads in her hand poking incessantly. Her graceful and noble expression was not the usual kind one that a woman worshiped.

"Imperial Concubine had just entered the palace and is still young. There are many things that she doesn't understand." Ma mama defended Shang Yunmo.

"Too young! "Sometimes it's not a good thing!" Her Majesty's hand suddenly stopped.

Ma mama didn't say anything. She'd been by the empress dowager's side for so many years already, and was well aware of her feelings. She knew that the empress dowager wasn't happy about this.

"This Dowager has already helped with what she needed to help. Whether or not she will be a blessing in disguise in the future in the palace will depend on her own good fortune. "If she manages to escape unscathed this time, then she'll become a useful chess piece. If she loses to those people from the Fangfang Garden, then I'll just leave her with a respectable death." The empress dowager said fiercely, then suddenly thought of something. "Amitabha, I believe in you. Please don't blame me, Buddha. Please don't blame me."
