Harem Daily Life

Chapter 203 Love Proof of Action

When everyone returned to Yingyue Pavilion, Tao Yanyan was pulled into the room by He Linzhang, and he showered her with kisses, proving his love for her with his actions.

"Your Majesty, wait, I, I will go see the child first." Tao Yanyan's hands and feet were weak, but he still had a trace of rationality left.

"They will take care of it. Besides, what's the point of seeing everyone asleep? Look at me more often. I haven't been to the harem for almost a month." Firstly, he was too busy. He finished work very late every day and was exhausted both physically and mentally. Secondly, he seemed to have no interest in it, so he just stayed away from the harem for a month.

Tao Yanyan looked at him in disbelief: "How could that be? Is your Majesty feeling unwell? Have you asked the imperial physician to take a look?"

He Linzhang: “…”

The hand on his waist stopped, He Linzhang stepped back a little, pinched Tao Yanyan's chin and said solemnly: "I am not sick, I am just too busy and tired."

Tao Yanyan smiled and rubbed his chin: "Okay, okay, it was my misunderstanding. I thought Your Majesty was no longer interested in that."

She almost scared herself. She is still young, and these few benefits cannot end so early.

He Linzhang narrowed his eyes. He did not miss the fleeting relief in her eyes. Was she worried that he would fail?

"The hot water is ready. Let's take a shower and go to bed together." He Linzhang washed up quickly and urged Tao Yanyan to do the same. He was eager to prove that he was as good as ever.

After waking up and returning to his familiar room, Xiao Jinan was confused for a while before he said happily: "Hurry up, get dressed quickly, I want to go see my vegetables and saplings."

Before leaving the palace, he repeatedly told Hongxia to take good care of the planted saplings and vegetables and make sure they didn't die.

Hongxia lived up to expectations. To protect against the cold, she built a shed for the saplings as instructed by Concubine Tao, which could at least keep some temperature. However, it was not easy to plant vegetables in winter. Now only white radishes were still in the field, and the others could only be planted in spring.

Xiao Jin'an inspected his vegetable garden and ate breakfast, but Tao Yanyan didn't get up yet. He couldn't help but ask, "Is mother too tired from the journey? Why haven't you gotten up yet?"

Qingfeng and Mingyue looked at each other, their faces blushing, Mingyue said, "It's cold, it's warm to sleep, young master, do you want to go back to the room to pack your luggage? Let's wait for Concubine Jieyu to get up, and then we'll go check out the new residence. I'm afraid we have to move before New Year's Eve."

Xiao Jinan nodded. He had heard that they would move to a bigger place, but he really couldn't bear to leave this place because he had many happy memories here.

Tao Yanyan was disturbed by He Linzhang in the middle of the night, and did not get up until lunch time. After eating a little, she took a few people to see the palace that Eunuch Zhang had chosen for her.

Xiao Jinan went with her. After looking at three places, they were not very satisfied with any of them. Eunuch Zhang said in embarrassment: "Then, the only one with a good location and close to the Imperial Study and the Imperial Garden is Changle Palace."

Tao Yanyan, with the mentality that it would be a waste not to see it, asked Eunuch Zhang to lead the way to see it.

As soon as he entered the door, Xiao Jinan's eyes lit up.

"Mother, there is a large piece of land here. We can grow a lot of vegetables."

Eunuch Zhang said with some embarrassment: "This is where Concubine Yin lived before. Although we have asked a monk to pray for her death, but...if Concubine Tao doesn't like it, then we can consider the first three places..."

Tao Yanyan took a look and found that this was the place where Xiao Jinan was born.

"It's okay. Since Jin'an likes it, let's stay here." She is an atheist. Besides, she is also a wandering soul from another world. There is nothing to mind.

Moreover, people have died in this palace throughout the dynasties.

When the palace coup happened, there was blood everywhere.

Eunuch Qin had previously sent people to clean the place in order to investigate Xiao Jinan's background, so even though Eunuch Zhang had not planned to choose this place and had not sent anyone to clean it, it was still clean.

"Just clean it up today. Once you're done and checked, you can move in."

Although Concubine Tao didn't mind, Eunuch Zhang still instructed Chang Tai to vacate the main house where Concubine Yin had lived before and use it as a warehouse, and also picked out a bright south-facing room for Concubine Tao to live in.

Chang Tai was very efficient. He immediately hired someone to clean the house, inside and out, three times, making it shiny everywhere to welcome its new owner.

In the imperial study, He Linzhang discussed matters with the Ministry of War before he had time to ask about matters in the harem.

"What? She chose Changle Palace?" He Linzhang frowned. "Forget it, as long as she likes it, go to my private storehouse and find a few gifts to send to her to congratulate her on her new home."

The Queen Mother also heard that Concubine Tao had chosen Changle Palace, where Concubine Yin had lived before her death. After thinking for a while, she said proudly: "Go to my private storehouse, pick out a few things that can ward off evil spirits and ward off evil spirits, and send them to her."

So, before Tao Yanyan moved in, the storeroom of her new home was already filled with the gifts sent by the Empress Dowager and the Emperor.

Chang Tai and Dong Fang returned to Yingyue Pavilion very late. Chang Tai came to report: "Jieyu, there are still some things left by the previous owner in Changle Palace. I don't know how to deal with them?"

"What's there? Have you seen it?" Tao Yanyan asked.

"A few books, a box of jewelry, and a box of new clothes for the children."

Tao Yanyan looked at Xiao Jinan who was playing with a wooden car nearby and said, "Put them aside for now. I'll take a look when you move them over."

After all, it is the relic of Jin'an's biological mother. Tao Yanyan wants to keep it for the child so that he will have something to think about in the future.

Of course, that is based on the premise that the child’s true background is revealed.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, Concubine Tao moved. Manager Li specially sent more than a dozen people to help, and the move was completed in almost one trip.

Tao Yanyan took Xiao Jinan away for the last time. Xiao Jinan kept saying goodbye to his land and his room.

Seeing that he was busy alone, Tao Yanyan walked to the place where the tomb was originally built and said silently: "I won't let you move. The feng shui here is very good. You can stay here."

A new year, a new beginning. Tao Yanyan looked at Yingyue Pavilion where she had lived for several months, and finally took Xiao Jinan’s hand and walked out the door.

"Mother, is Changle Palace our final home?" Xiao Jinan asked seriously, looking up.

Tao Yanyan thought for a moment: "Maybe it will be my last home, but it won't be Jin'an's. When Jin'an grows up and becomes a prince, he can live in his fiefdom instead of in the palace."

Little Jin'an pouted and frowned: "But I want to live with my mother. I don't want to live alone in the fiefdom."

Seeing that he was about to cry, Tao Yanyan touched his head and said, "Then when the time comes, mother will ask for permission to accompany Jin'an to his fiefdom, okay?"

Xiao Jinan nodded immediately with bright eyes: "Okay, it's a deal. But is the fiefdom far away? If it is far, what will father do?"

Tao Yanyan paused and thought: When I can leave the palace and live with my son, there will be no place for him in this world!

Thinking of this, Tao Yanyan actually felt a little sour.

If he no longer existed in this world, I would probably miss him too.
