Pei Yuanhao stayed in Chonghua Palace until dawn, and it was Mingzhu and Bixiu who went to the night. Not long after he left until dawn, when I went to serve again, Lan Xiangju had already cleaned up overnight, and Xu Cairen moved over.

On weekdays, Chonghua Palace is filled with people, and it is even more lively at this time.

I just walked into the garden to pay my respects to Shen Rou. She had finished washing up and was sitting in front of the bronze mirror, outlining her red cherry-like lips with her little finger. She looked back at me and asked, "Where have you gone?"

"I just came from the ying court."

"I didn't see you early in the morning. I thought that the emperor had put you back to the cold palace again."

My face turned pale and I hurriedly said, "Thank you for your kindness, I can stay in Chonghua Palace."

"Just know it's grace."

She slowly got up, walked to me and looked at me condescendingly, and said, "In the future, the emperor will come again, and you will be allowed to go to the night. Don't let me find your people anymore!"

Let me go to night...?

In a trance, it seemed as if I had returned to the days I had been in Shangyang Palace in the past. I looked up at her, said nothing, and just lowered my head and said, "Yes."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a panic outside footsteps. After a while, he heard the little eunuchs coming to report that the Empress and several other concubines had come to visit Xu Cairen. Shen Rou slowly stood up, looked outside, and smiled and said, "It's really a bunch of flowers."

Mingzhu stood beside her and said resentfully to Lan Xiangju: "With a dragon species, you will be crazy and have no respect for the Empress."

Shen Rou smiled faintly.

"Will this child be raised be raised? Let's kick her out again?"

"What nonsense!" Shen Rou frowned slightly and said, "That's the emperor's dragon species. Besides, if something really happens to me now, will I have to do with me?"

"yes."

Mingzhu took a step back and didn't dare to say anything else. Instead, Shen Rou smiled and said, "Since the queen is here, let's go and join in the fun."

After saying that, she walked out the door. When I heard this, I hurriedly got up and followed him.

When he arrived outside Lanxiangju, he heard the sound of orioles and swallows inside. Shen Rou walked in slowly and said with a smile: "It's so lively."

Mingzhu and I followed her. When we looked around, we felt that the flowers in the room were full of red and green, and the endless national beauty was fragrant.

During the days I came to Chonghua Palace, I met several concubines, and almost all of them were here. The first person sitting on the right, with a melon-shaped face, with a slightly phoenix-eye-sharp cheekbones, was Shuyi-6 Xinrong, the younger sister of the Minister of Justice, Liu Xinnan; a young and round face next to me was Pang Yan, the daughter of the Censor Pang Zheng; the one she took action was a cold-faced woman. I have only seen it once, but I have never forgotten her. She was Zhaoyi and Liu Li, and her father was Liu Shizhou, who was killed by the people from the Huisheng Pharmacy Store in Jiangnan.

On the other side opposite them, there was Wanyi, Zhu Fanghua, Ronghua, Wen Sisi, and his father and brother also worked in the court. The other beauties, Liang Di, who were unable to watch the seats, stood in the back in a regular manner.

In front of this piece of pearls and jade, a woman with gorgeous clothes and picturesque eyebrows sat. Shen Rou walked over and bowed to her: "I'm paying homage to the Queen."

"Get up."

Just three simple words, spoken from this beauty, were graceful and charming, like a yellow oriole coming out of the valley in spring. She raised her hand gently towards Shen Rou, and the snow-white tenderness lit out a ray of sunlight that penetrated through the window, as white as mutton fat jade, dazzling.

This is not the first time I have seen these hands, but the last time was on the stage of Master Tai.

She and Huang Tianba sang in a melodious accompaniment on the stage, which was touching.

Now, although there are no sleeves flying or rouge covering me, I can see the charming Liu Miaogu who was on the stage at first sight. But now, she is sitting tall in the center of the concubines, she has lost her charm and has more majesty.

She is the queen of the mother's current world - Chang Qing.

When Shen Rou stood up, the concubines sitting next to her had already stood up and wanted to salute her. However, the queen said to one of the slender and gentle women: "If you are pregnant, don't get up and kneel, so as not to hurt the fetal aura."

It turns out that she is the talented person Xu Youling.

I couldn't help but look at her more. Among these concubines, she was really the most inconspicuous. She was soft and weak. Even in a gorgeous dress with gold and silver, it was not consistent with her handsome appearance. She looked down and looked like a frightened rabbit. She looked carefully at Shen Rou.

Shen Rou smiled and said, "What the queen said is that there is no need to salute in the future."

Xu Cairen still stood up and saluted them: "Xie Empress, Xie Empress."

When everyone walked down, Shen Rou walked slowly over and sat down. At this time, the queen said to Shen Rou: "I heard that the emperor asked Xu Cairen to move to my sister, so I was relieved. Things in the six palaces are busy, and I really can't take care of me. My sister is a meticulous and steady person, so Xu Cairen will make my sister worry."

"What the queen said? Xu Cairen is lucky to be a sister in the Six Palaces. My sister should take good care of herself."

The queen nodded and said to Xu Cairen: "When you arrive at the imperial concubine, everything will be taken care of by the imperial concubine. If there is any shortage, just speak up and don't let yourself down."

"I know."

At this time, Shuyi6 Xinrong took a sip of tea and immediately frowned and said, "Well, what's going on with this tea? It's cold?"

"oh?"

When the queen heard this, she picked up the cup and took a sip. It was indeed cold. She frowned. Liu Xinrong immediately said, "Xu Cairen, you are pregnant with a dragon seed. The palace is very caring for you. The queen comes here in person to ask, why do you actually treat guests with cold tea?"

Xu Cairen hurriedly stood up and murmured without knowing what to say.

Zhu Wanyi also smiled and said, "Xu Cairen, you are here with the Imperial Concubine now. Are you reluctant to even take a sip of tea out to entertain guests?"

After saying this, everyone's eyes fell on Shen Rou. She sat in the chair lightly, smiling, but didn't say anything. Yuwen, the palace maid behind Xu Cairen, stepped forward and said to the queen: "Grandmaster calm down. It's my servant who just made a mistake. I used the tea brought from Fangcaotang to serve guests. I hope the queen will forgive me."

Chang Qing glanced at them, looked down at the teacup, and said, "Your master is now pregnant, why is he still so careless?"

"I know the guilt."

Chang Qing turned to look at Shen Rou and said, "Concubine, the emperor got up early and told me that the people here still have to be used, so why not just give someone to Xu Cairen."

As soon as she said this, the faces of the concubines around her changed.

Shen Rou was originally leaning against the chair, but when she heard this, she stood up with a smile and said, "What the Queen said is that the Emperor also said this to me last night. It was also the right thing to give someone to Xu Cairen. However, I didn't have enough staff a while ago, so I asked the Queen for a shortage. If I really gave it to Xu Cairen, I'm afraid I'll be in a hurry."

"Then you mean-"

"Why, I'd better ask someone to take care of Xu Cairen's meals, but this person doesn't return to Lan Xiangju, would that be better?"

When she heard her say this, the faces of the concubines around her changed a little.

Everyone in the palace knew that when a concubine was pregnant, the most important thing was her meal. She actually recommended her to take care of Xu Cairen's meals, which was almost undoubtedly like being on the fire.

When I looked at her, I felt even more worried, and I heard her say, "Yue Qingying."

"..." My heart suddenly jumped, and I didn't have time to think about anything, so I slowly walked forward: "Empress..."

"From today on, you can take care of Xu Cairen's meals."

I stood in the middle of the house, and my heart was confused for a moment. In this way, wouldn’t everything be piled up on me? I couldn’t help but look at her - did she see something and want to use this method to avoid disaster for myself?

However, in full view of everyone, I could not understand the rejection, so I could only kneel down and said, "Yes."

The concubines around him looked at me, and I looked at you, and they were conveying something silently, but no one spoke. Chang Qing looked at Shen Rou for a moment, and then said, "Okay, let's follow the words of the imperial concubine."

After saying that, she put down the teacup in her hand and stood up and said, "After sitting for so long, Xu Cairen should have a good rest. I will go back first."

Several other concubines also stood up and said goodbye. Just as they were about to walk out, the queen walked past me, suddenly stopped, turned around and looked at me, and said, "Your name is Yue Qingying?"

I lowered my head: "Reply to the queen's words, I will be my servant Yue Qingying."

"I have seen you somewhere?"

She frowned slightly, her eyes as autumn water were a little confused. When she looked at me in a daze, I looked up at her, then lowered her head and said, "Before the emperor ascended the throne, I was a maid from Shangyang Palace and had visited the Grand Master's Mansion."

She suddenly remembered something and said, "That night?"

“It was that night.”

A strange expression suddenly appeared on Chang Qing's face, and a little mist suddenly rose up in those eyes. Although he looked at me, he seemed to see through my body and saw someone from somewhere. After a while, he seemed to have come back to his senses and looked at me and said, "If I remember correctly, you were injured by an assassin that night, right?"

"yes."

"I still remember that someone took action to protect you."

That night, the assassin took action, after she stepped down, but she didn't expect that she could see them all, so I nodded: "Yes."

"Who is the one who protects you? Do you know?"

"The person who protects me is the young actor who performs on stage. I paused for a moment and said, "I don't know him."
