Peaches in the palace have been more and more fruitful, even some just fell innocent because they were too ripe. It seemed like the squirrels were getting overwhelmed eating all the peaches, and this was Wu Li Mei and her maids. Pluck all the peaches that have been cooked on the tree. It would be unfair if only the squirrels tasted the sweetness and freshness of the fruit, after all even though the concubine had plucked almost two large baskets, the rest of the unripe fruit was still very much.
If observed again, the palace environment was the same as the road home that he passed after visiting the drugstore. There are many different types of peach trees planted there. It seemed that Emperor Zhou was very fond of the fruit.
Spring is always fun, the cold wind the rest of winter blows sepoi combined with the warm sun. After being overwhelmed by a long, miserable winter, covered in snow and hugged in frost. Now welcome spring as welcome the new spirit of life. This life must go on even if it is no longer the same as it was.
Wu Li Mei sighed, she smilingly looked at the peaches in her hands. If the little princess was still with him, he would have been happy picking peaches together.
"Your Majesty? Is all this fruit not enough?" ask Dayang Yi.
Wu Li Mei turned her head, she saw that the two baskets were already fully filled. "Yes, let's go, that's enough."
"Okay, Your Majesty."
The lady-in-waiting immediately gave the code to the other lady and some of the palace guards who were climbing up the tree to come down. They had to give up because of Wu Li Mei's order, "Sorry, Your Majesty, what are all these peaches for? Can you spend all this on your own?" lu Yan asked, while sorting out the fruit that turned out to be rotten.
"Yes, Your Highness, the peach sweets you made at the beginning of winter are still a little" Dayang Yi added.
"Nothing."
"Nothing?" ask the lady again, "You mean? We just pluck it."
"Yes." Yeah." Wu Li Mei nodded, "I just don't want to see the squirrels spending this fresh fruit alone."
Dayang Yi and Lu Yan looked at each other, they fell silent with very cute facial expressions, so Wu Li Mei could not bear to not laugh. "Ahahahha, I'm just kidding lady!"
"Eh?"
"I plucked all of this to share with the ladies and guards in the grand concubine pavilion." explained the grand concubine, "I'll only take a few for myself, and the rest you share evenly. If less, add more."
"Who say can you pluck at will, grand concubine?!"
Wu Li Mei turned her head, she was slightly stunned then immediately looked down respectfully followed by her ladies. "Greetings, Your Grace. May the emperor live a thousand years."
"Rise!"
Emperor Zhou approached with his entourage, before the man gave the code to the ladies and bodyguards, to leave them alone.
"I didn't know you were back, sorry for not welcoming."
"What's wrong, the empress has welcomed me.tadi."
"Okay, Your Majesty."
"Eh?!"
"Don't you feel guilty for not welcoming me?" the emperor asked, "The great concubine should give a welcome to the return of the emperor from another land."
Uh! True too, he forgot that taking his leave and welcoming the return of the emperor was the duty of concubines. Moreover, in this empire, concubines or empresses did not choose many things to do and live. Indeed relaxing every day is fun, so as part of the busyness of the hospital, his head suddenly p
Wu Li Mei just looked down respectfully, he was still surprised to see Emperor Zhou here. Isn't that guy in another part of the country? But why did it come back so quickly, usually if the emperor went to visit the country, it took him at the earliest one week.
"You picking peaches again?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Is your sweets over? I used to plant peaches here to be eaten by maids and bodyguards as much as they were." said the emperor, he stared at the peach tree that stood firm. Not only leaves, but the fruit is lush. "As soon as time passes, I plant this peach as you conceive the crown prince and Fang Yin's daughter, don't you remember?"
Wu Li Mei blinked as Emperor Zhou turned his head towards her, she was not the real concubine and he knew nothing. Wu Li Mei was stunned as both of her palms were tightly grasped by the emperor, the man standing right before her with a gaze that could not be missed in the slightest. "I know you haven't forgiven me for the late Princess Xie Ling, but let me try to correct the mistake."
"But it won't bring him back to life."
"Nobody can escape death, Mei-er. Everything that happened must have been the will of the gods."
"What are you going to do, Emperor?" Wu Li Mei looked straight at the emperor's black bead, hopefully that gaze will tell how much he hates the empress.
The grand concubine released her hand, "If you can't even punish the empress, who is clearly guilty for my daughter's death."
"Prove if you can make her feel what my daughter feels!" challenge Wu Li Mei to the emperor.
Seeing that the man was only speechless, the concubine smiled smugly. It might be true as he suspected that from the beginning the emperor could do nothing, even though all the evidence was in sight. Wu Li Mei clenched her hands behind the arms of hanfu, "I know you won't be able to, emperor!"
"May-er..."
"What's wrong!" cut Wu Li Mei quickly, "If you can't do it then I will punish her in my own way."
Wu Li Mei's determination was already unanimous, let him be the same as the empress for having a vengeful nature and justifying all means to win. The woman did not care if she had turned into the old concubine.
His old intentions did indeed want to live life as Wu Li Mei with complete calm, but what would be said if Yang Jia Li himself raised the war flag. He's not scared! Not a little trembling! He just didn't want to make trouble in this second life.
But this time it was different, the debt of life was repaid with life. He vowed to make Yang Jia Li pay for his innocent life. He would punish Yang Jia Li as sick as the princess.
"Yang Jia Li was not just any person, he had many influential people behind him. The empire could be destroyed if the empress deploys her followers to raid the palace, Mei-er."
"I don't care." replied Wu Li Mei no less sharply. "If you're afraid your palace will collapse, then I'm not afraid of anything. Protect your palace, I will kill Yang Jia Li my way."
