Chapter 1409 Who has failed my favor?
"I understand," Feng Qianyan said with a smile, "Come to think of it, the Imperial Concubine is also like this. She hasn't even recovered from her illness yet, but she went straight out of the corner gate. What if she catches a cold again? What should we do?"
Upon hearing this, everyone around fell silent.
Xu Miaoyin asked, "What did you say?"
Wu Wan, who was sitting next to her, also frowned. "You said, the Imperial Concubine went out the corner gate?"
"yes."
"You're not seeing things, are you?"
Feng Qianyan laughed and said, "You are joking, Concubine Hui. Although I am pregnant, my eyesight has not been affected. The Imperial Concubine is of such high status, how could I be wrong?"
“…”
"Ran Xiaoyu is with her."
“…”
"Even if I misjudged her, I wouldn't misjudge Ran Xiaoyu."
“…”
After hearing what she said, everyone immediately looked at the queen.
You know, the inner palace also has its own rules. The concubines in the harem are not allowed to go out casually in order to avoid the spread of any unpleasant rumors.
Now, the imperial concubine had just been taken out of the cold palace, and she immediately did this—
Is she crazy?
Depin Xinqing, who was sitting beside her, also frowned and said hesitantly, "Well, does the Imperial Concubine have something to do?"
Feng Qianyan glanced at her and sneered, with no intention of saying anything more to her.
Xu Miaoyin hesitated for a while and said, "Are you sure you didn't see it wrong?"
Feng Qianyan smiled and said, "I dare not deceive Her Majesty the Queen."
At this time, Concubine Hui sneered.
"That's interesting."
“…”
"A few days ago, we were saying that all the rules in this palace were almost destroyed by her alone. Who knew that something like this would happen again today?"
“…”
"Her Majesty the Queen and the Imperial Concubine, are they really no longer under the control of the harem?"
Consort Ning Feng Qianyan also said, "I don't have any other intentions, I just feel that the Imperial Concubine is really betraying the Emperor's favor by doing this."
Hearing their words one after another, Xu Miaoyin's brows furrowed more and more.
But she still didn't speak immediately.
At this moment, a deep voice came from the door: "Who has failed to live up to my grace?"
When they heard the voice, they all jumped up from their chairs as if they were pricked. Xu Miaoyin also immediately raised her head and saw a tall figure slowly walking in from outside the door.
It was none other than Zhu Feng!
He put his hands behind his back and slowly walked into Yonghe Palace.
I don’t know if it’s because there are too many people here and it’s a bit stuffy, but as soon as he walked in, his face naturally added a bit of gloomy air and his eyes became deep.
Everyone immediately knelt down before him and said, "I pay my respects to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."
Zhu Feng walked over first, held Xu Miaoyin's arm and helped her get up and sit back on the couch.
Then, he turned around and looked at the concubines who were kneeling on the ground.
Said: "Stand up."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone stood up again. When Concubine Hui stood up, she lowered her head and carefully glanced at Concubine Ning. Feng Qianyan naturally saw it and nodded calmly.
When everyone stood up, Zhu Feng brushed off the corner of his clothes and sat on the main chair. Seeing that the queen and everyone else were still standing, he waved his hand lightly.
"Please sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone then sat down again.
Xu Miaoyin sat aside, put one hand on the small table, and said softly: "Why did the emperor come here suddenly today?"
Zhu Feng said, "I heard that the Queen is also ill, so I came to see you."
Xu Miaoyin immediately laughed and said, "They're all worrying for nothing. I just caught a cold and will be fine after taking a few doses of medicine. Why bother the emperor to make such a special trip?"
"No problem."
Zhu Feng said calmly, "If I hadn't made this trip, I wouldn't have heard so much 'news'."
As he spoke, he looked at everyone again: "What were you talking about just now?"
Everyone kept their mouths shut and sat quietly.
Zhu Feng asked, "Who has failed my grace?"
“…”
Still no one answered, Zhu Feng turned to look at Xu Miaoyin and said, "Queen?"
"This..." Xu Miaoyin hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's like this. Concubine Ning just said that she saw the Imperial Concubine walking out of the corner gate."
"oh?"
"I'm afraid she has something to do."
“…”
Zhu Feng didn't speak immediately. He just frowned slightly, turned to look at Feng Qianyan, and said, "Concubine Ning, was it you who said that?"
Feng Qianyan said hurriedly, "Just now, when I was coming to Yonghe Palace, I passed by the corner gate and saw the Imperial Concubine leaving. I didn't know what she was going to do, so I came to report to the Empress."
“…”
Zhu Feng looked at her silently for a while and said, "You did the right thing."
“…”
"In the harem, anything that happens should be reported to the Queen first."
Upon hearing this, Feng Qianyan immediately showed a smile.
But the next moment, Zhu Feng said, "However, I have approved the matter of the noble concubine."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
Everyone looked up at him. Zhu Feng said calmly, "Her health is not good, and the imperial physician has also advised her to walk around more often. Therefore, I allow her to walk around the palace."
“…”
"In the future, you can ask me directly about the Imperial Concubine's affairs."
“…”
After hearing this, everyone was speechless.
Just ask him directly about the imperial concubine. Who really dares to ask him about the imperial concubine?
So everyone nodded in agreement and said, "Yes."
After Feng Qianyan sat down, although she tried her best not to show a frustrated expression on her face, she couldn't help but grit her teeth, and a hint of almost ferocious expression still appeared between the corners of her eyes and eyebrows.
At this time, Zhu Feng said again: "But, speaking of which——"
He looked at Feng Qianyan: "Why did you go to the corner gate?"
"Well?"
Feng Qianyan was stunned and froze.
Everyone looked at her at this time.
After thinking about it, I realized that there was no need to walk to the corner gate in between Jianfu Palace and Yonghe Palace.
Feng Qianyan immediately stood up and stammered, "This, I—I also listened to the imperial physician's advice. The imperial physician told me to move around more to facilitate delivery. So, when I came here, I deliberately, deliberately took a detour."
“…I see.”
Zhu Feng nodded gently: "You should also walk around the palace more often."
"Yes, yes."
Feng Qianyan smiled and sat down again when she saw Zhu Feng waving at her.
As soon as I sat down, I felt my hands and feet become weak, even exhausted.
For some reason, the emperor was clearly not angry, nor did he say anything directed at him, but at that moment, the look he gave him seemed to see through his bones, blood, and flesh.
Feng Qianyan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
