Yu Jiao was slightly surprised when she heard her ask this. If it were in the past, she would certainly not do that, but after what happened the day before, she had already decided to seriously treat Cheng Ying as her godfather.

Yu Jiao smiled frankly and nodded without denying it.

Seeing this, Shen Wan had a complicated expression. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but held it back.

Yu Jiao could probably guess what Chen Wan was thinking. Her father was a university scholar in the Hanlin Academy and had been well-read since childhood. Although he had a gentle temperament, he was a man of upright values ​​and great integrity. He should despise treacherous people like Cheng Ying who abused their power.

Yu Jiao didn't want to discuss Cheng Ying with Chen Wan. She understood why Chen Wan viewed Cheng Ying that way, but she couldn't be as hateful and vengeful as Chen Wan.

Although Cheng Ying was a treacherous man, he treated Yu Jiao well and Yu Jiao could not deny it, so she could not pretend to be righteous.

"The palace has been bustling these past two days. I also heard that His Majesty has appointed a new concubine. She was appointed a concubine by His Majesty yesterday when she entered the palace. How glorious!" Cui Qiong said excitedly, "It is said that this lady came from Xianyang. Her father is just a lowly official. His Majesty met her by chance when he went to Mount Mei to worship Buddha."

When Yu Jiao heard about Xiaojun Meishan, she couldn't help but think of Meishu, a girl who lived in the back hills and raised rabbits. She still remembered the time when she accidentally ran into Cheng Ying and Meishu talking in the courtyard. At that time, Meishu seemed to have asked Cheng Ying when she could enter the palace.

"Are you talking about the emperor's newly appointed concubine Shu?" Song Jingrong obviously knew about this as well.

Cui Qiong nodded, "I heard that this Concubine Shu is very beautiful, not inferior to Concubine Xue at all."

Compared to the two of them, Liu Yaoyu, Chen Wan and Wei Min were not so well-informed. They didn't know about this. Chen Wan knew that Cui Qiong always spoke without guarding her mouth, so she reminded her, "It's okay for you to say this in front of us, but in front of outsiders, don't say that Concubine Shu is inferior to Concubine Xue."

Cui Qiong pouted, "I'm not stupid, I only dare to say this to you." She added, "I'm just curious about how beautiful that concubine was, to be able to be named a concubine as soon as she entered the palace."

According to the Taiyan etiquette, to enter the palace as a servant, one must first start from the lowest rank, Changzai, and then be promoted step by step. Even though Concubine Xue, who had been the most favored concubine in the harem for many years, married Emperor Mingzheng when she was still in the palace, after Emperor Mingzheng ascended the throne, she was slowly promoted from the third rank Zhaoyi to Imperial Noble Concubine.

And this Shufei was a second-rank concubine as soon as she entered the palace, and she also had a title, which was only one level lower than Concubine Xue's rank, which was really astonishing.

Yu Jiao pursed her lips. If this concubine was really Miss Meishu, then her beauty was indeed not inferior to Xue Rong.

"I'm afraid this concubine won't have an easy time in the palace." Song Jingrong said slowly.

Several people agreed with her. Xue Rong had been favored by Emperor Mingzheng for so many years and was the most powerful person in the harem. Even Empress Feng had to avoid her. This concubine received such special favor from the emperor as soon as she entered the palace. How could Xue Rong tolerate her!

Yu Jiao was also worried for Mei Shu in her heart. Xue Rong was now pregnant, and if she could give birth to a dragon heir, her power would only increase.

Maybe it was because Meishu lived in the mountains and raised so many rabbits, Yu Jiao had the impression that she was pure and untainted by worldly desires. Yu Jiao privately felt that a girl like her should not go to the deep palace, a place where people are eaten.

But everyone has their own life. Meishu's entry into the palace was obviously planned long ago, but I don't know what Cheng Ying wants her to do in the palace? Yu Jiao thought of the white fluffy rabbits in the back mountain. I don't know how those rabbits were placed after Meishu entered the palace.

She suddenly decided to go to Lianxi Temple.
