Chapter 192 How Long Can It Last

"Today is the Queen Mother's birthday banquet. Ladies and young ladies, please behave yourself." His eyes drifted towards He Yunyao, full of warnings.

Lin was also frightened by He Yunyao's action and pulled her hand: "Shut up!"

He Yunyao hated He Yuyao even more.

Seeing that everyone was silent, the nanny turned around and returned to her previous position.

After this lesson, the team immediately became quiet, and the ladies lined up obediently to enter the palace, fearing that they would offend the nobles in the palace.

This is Qingyun Palace.

Because of what happened to Song Zhuo before, Song Qingyan was a little absent-minded. On the way to Rongle Palace, she even looked dazed.

She really couldn't understand it. How could Zhuo Ge fall so deeply in love with Miss Qionghua after just meeting her once?

Thinking of this, Song Qingyan couldn't help but look at Lu Xingwan in Jin Xin's arms.

Could this be the legendary love at first sight?

When Song Qingyan arrived at Rongle Palace, the empress had just arrived.

She hurried over and politely paid her respects to the Empress Dowager.

"I pay my respects to the Empress Dowager. May the Empress Dowager live a thousand years and a thousand years. I wish the Empress Dowager good health and a long life."

"More importantly, be happy every day."

"Okay, okay," the Queen Mother smiled until her eyes narrowed into slits, "quickly get up and sit down!"

Song Qingyan bowed to the Empress again and said, "Greetings to the Empress."

With Yunzhu's previous lesson, Shen Ning was not stupid. She could not accept Song Qingyan's courtesy. She stood up and helped her up: "My Royal Concubine, please don't be so polite. His Majesty said that you don't have to salute me."

Song Qingyan did not want to refute, but just smiled and sat down below the Queen.

Seeing the two of them like this, the Queen Mother felt relieved.

She also heard about Yunzhu a few days ago. She heard that Song Qingyan sent Yunzhu away outside Qingyun Palace. She was worried that the two of them would have a conflict because of this.

The queen held Song Qingyan's hand and did not let go: "What happened with Yunzhu a few days ago was caused by a servant in my palace who did not know the rules and regulations and offended the Royal Concubine."

As the saying goes, don't hit someone who smiles at you.

The queen said this, and Song Qingyan naturally gave her face: "This matter is impulsive. Miss Yunzhu is someone close to the queen, and it is me..."

Before Song Qingyan finished her words, the queen patted her hands and said, "This Yunzhu is just a person who came to my palace later. I really don't know her. Don't worry, my Royal Concubine. I have already sent her away to the Ministry of Punishment."

After saying this, he glanced at the Queen Mother anxiously and said, "It is my fault for saying these things on the day of your birthday banquet."

The Queen Mother just smiled and didn't care.

"Now there is no grudge between the two of you, that's the best."

Song Qingyan quickly took over the conversation: "The Empress has a lot of things to do. All I can do is not to cause trouble for her. This matter is indeed a matter that I have not considered carefully."

"But I heard that there is a new maid in charge of the palace in the Queen's palace. I wonder what she is like?"

The queen sneered in her heart, knowing that nothing could escape Song Qingyan's eyes.

But her face was still gentle: "The Yue Ran that the Ministry of Internal Affairs just sent over is a very reliable person. She has managed the Jinxiu Palace in perfect order, which relieves me of a lot of worries."

"Yes," the Queen Mother also patted Shen Ning's hand, "You will have to work harder on weekdays, and you must have a good maid by your side."

After saying that, he looked at Song Qingyan again.

"Fortunately, I am now being taken care of by the female doctor next to Qingyan, so I don't have to trouble you."

The queen was also surprised and replied: "I also heard from the maid beside me that there is a female doctor who is very good at serving the imperial concubine!"

"I am not like the Empress. I know some medical skills. Your Majesty is worried about Wanwan's health, so he ordered my father to find a female doctor to serve in the palace." Song Qingyan had to explain Qiong Hua's origins clearly in front of the Empress Dowager to prevent Shen Ning from causing any trouble in the future.

Speaking of Qiong Hua, the Queen suddenly looked a little uncomfortable, thinking of the poison she had been poisoned with before the palace banquet that day.

Song Qingyan didn't care and told Jinyu to take out the wooden box in her hand.

He looked at the Queen Mother as if embarrassed.

"My female doctor in the palace heard that the Queen Mother's birthday banquet is coming soon, so she has been preparing some medicine for the Queen Mother in the past few days."

"Although it's not a valuable item, Qiong Hua said that he wanted to express his gratitude to the Queen Mother for her care."

The Queen Mother was naturally very surprised when she heard this.

"The pills made by your maid are very effective. I have to thank her for that."

Nanny Su at the side also hurried forward to take the things, and looked at Song Qingyan with a smile: "Your Highness, you don't know, but after the Queen Mother used the pills and plasters made by Miss Qionghua these days, she already felt warm on her knees."

"Now I can wear some light clothing. It really has a miraculous effect."

"Really?" Song Qingyan knew Qiong Hua's methods, but she didn't expect that she could do everything. After all, she was a fairy, and she was not comparable to mortals. "I didn't know Qiong Hua's medical skills were so amazing."

Shen Ning also said, "I didn't expect that there is such a powerful person in the Imperial Concubine's Palace. If I change to the Japanese palace, I must go to Qingyun Palace to sit and learn from him."

As they were talking, the Great Chu Emperor came in with a grand gesture: "Your son is here to congratulate your mother on her birthday."

When Shen Ning and Song Qingyan heard Da Chu's voice, they hurriedly stood up and bowed to greet him.

The Emperor of Great Chu turned around and looked at the two women in front of him, and was stunned for a moment.

Song Qingyan dressed up a little today, which was a rare occasion. For some reason, she looked a bit like the former Song Qingya.

It made him lose consciousness for a moment.

Shen Ning, who was standing by, saw the Great Chu Emperor's expression and didn't care much. He just smiled and joked, "Look at your Majesty. The Imperial Concubine must be extremely beautiful today. Your Majesty is stunned by her."

Several people in the room laughed.

Shen Ning also smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes.

After being busy in the palace these days, she finally figured it out.

I entered the palace for power, and now that I have reached the highest position in the harem, why should I get entangled in love affairs?

What does it matter how much the Emperor of Great Chu dotes on Song Qingyan?

After all, the throne of queen is hers.

As long as I am the empress, the Emperor of Great Chu will respect me, and Song Qingyan will respect me. This is a fact that cannot be changed.

So now, seeing the undisguised love for Song Qingyan in the eyes of the Great Chu Emperor, she didn't care anymore.

Instead, I felt a little sympathy for Song Qingyan. How long can the emperor's love last?

The Great Chu Emperor did not say anything, but just sat down with a smile: "The Queen has become more childish now."

Then he turned to look at the Queen Mother: "Why are there only the Queen and the Royal Consort? Why aren't there any others?"
