> The Trust Recap
Mother Queen asked Pei Xinzhu to help Xu Yu choose the concubines business, but everyone saw the pearl hairpin on Xu Yu’s head. Pei Xinzhu was very dissatisfied and immediately called Tao Shuren and Jingyao to change Xu Yu’s favored status. Jingyao believed that Xu Yu was favored only because her father and brothers were fighting outside, and it didn’t matter as long as they endured it for a while. Tomorrow’sconcubines choosing, Pei Xinzhu specially called her cousin Zhi’er, hoping that she could enter the palace, and her father’s promotion was also expected.
The next day’s concubine choosing, Zhi’er’s heightening insoles were exposed when she was caught. Xiao Jinyun sneered at such a small trick and ordered someone to drag her down and whip her twenty times. Zhi’er begged Pei Xinzhu to help her, but Pei Xinzhu could only smash it and swallow it into her stomach. Xu Yu heard that this year’s girls were very spiritual and came to join in the fun. Xiao Jinyun had already selected those that were beneficial to the court and secretly gave them to Xu Yu, asking her to choose a few according to the list. Xu Yu didn’t follow Xiao Jinyun’s ideas and began to talk about entering the palace, all of which were Xu Yu’s personal experiences. They survived spring, summer, autumn and winter, but they lost everything except white hair and wrinkles. Instead of waiting for a man who would never see them again in their lifetime, Xu Yu encouraged them to find a man they truly loved. She even publicly announced that she only had one person in her heart, her wife, and didn’t like these girls at all.
The inner courtyard was empty, and the ministers were teaching in the court. Xu Yu directly ordered taxation and couldn’t be bothered to talk to them. The early court had already ended, but Xiao Jinyun had not yet returned. Xu Yu was worried that he would be in danger and immediately sent someone to check the situation. Unexpectedly, Xiao Jinyun was helping Mother Queen fumigate with mugwort. When his mother gave birth to him, she left behind a disease root, which he knew very well. Mother Queen was very pleased with this because the city lord also fumigated himself like this when he was a child. The concubines were stunned to see the rare harmony between Mother Queen and Xu Yu, who were usually at odds with each other. The atmosphere was clearly very harmonious.
Xu Yu was drinking tea peacefully when Xiao Jinming came to ask him for money. He asked for eight hundred taels of gold. Xiao Jinming said he had his eye on a gift and wanted to buy it as a birthday gift for Mother Queen, but he lost all his money gambling two days ago, and he lost it to his own third uncle. Xu Yu thought about it and agreed, and also asked Xiao Jinming to replace Xiao Jinyun. Without saying a word, Xiao Jinming ran to Mother Queen’s palace. However, when he saw Xu Yu’s eyes, he felt inexplicably familiar. Why did her eyes look so much like Xiao Jinyun’s? Before Xiao Jinyun left, Xiao Jinming whispered to her that her elder brother had asked him to come and save him. Xiao Jinyun thought Xu Yu was worried about him and returned to the palace only to find that she was snoring loudly with drool all over her memorial. Mother Queen’s birthday was approaching, and Xiao Jinyun asked Xu Yu to embroider a picture of a hundred birds facing the phoenix. But she only knew how to wield a sword and gun and didn’t know how to sew and mend things.
Xiao Jinyun asked Xu Yu to help him grind ink, and when she woke up, she saw that Xiao Jinyun had drawn a picture of a hundred birds facing the phoenix according to the picture. When she saw Xu Yu’s face full of ink, Xiao Jinyun laughed out loud. Xiao Jinming was puzzled when he saw Xiao Jinyun embroidering flowers. He came to ask Xiao Jinyun for money.
