Chapter 23 Why must I be a favorite concubine?
Du Wansheng protested in vain and could only sleep in the cold, cold, cold, cold study at night.
Zhao Miaomiao had a sound sleep, which was the most comfortable sleep she had had since entering the palace.
But the next morning, before daybreak, Shaoyao pushed the door open with hot water, gently pulled up Zhao Miaomiao's bed curtains, and woke her up, saying, "Your Majesty, it's time to get up. You have to pay your respects to the Queen Mother and the Imperial Concubine later."
Zhao Miaomiao was very sleepy. She turned over while hugging the quilt and said vaguely, "Okay... I'll get up right away..."
After saying that, he immediately fell asleep again and began to snore softly.
"My Lady? My Lady, if you don't get up now, it will be too late."
Shaoyao continued to push Zhao Miaomiao, who was woken up again. She had no choice but to get up, covering her head, and glanced out the window. "It's not even daybreak yet, why are you paying your respects at this hour?"
Shaoyao walked behind Zhao Miaomiao and combed her hair while saying, "My lady, we all go to pay our respects at the hour of Chou."
"Ugly hour..."
Zhao Miaomiao had just woken up, her head was confused. After thinking for a long time, she finally realized, "One o'clock in the morning?! The Queen Mother is an old lady. She doesn't sleep much, and if she doesn't sleep, she doesn't want us to sleep either!"
When Shaoyao heard this, she immediately knelt down and terrifiedly advised Zhao Miaomiao, "Your Majesty, be careful with your words."
The palace maids around them also knelt down.
"Okay, okay, I just spoke too quickly." Zhao Miaomiao waved her hand and said to the people around her, "Shh, you didn't hear anything, and I didn't say anything."
"yes."
The palace maids around her stood up and continued to help Zhao Miaomiao dress, comb her hair, and wash.
Although Zhao Miaomiao was not used to being served, she still let them do what they wanted. The main reason was that she had gotten up too early and was too sleepy to move.
By the time Zhao Miaomiao was ready to go out, it was only three o'clock in the morning.
But when he arrived at the Empress Dowager's Cining Palace, he saw that all the concubines were there, waiting for Zhao Miaomiao.
Outside the gate of the Cining Palace, there were a lot of people standing. Looking around, there were at least a dozen concubines, each of whom was accompanied by a maid. There were about twenty people standing there waiting for the Cining Palace to open.
Zhao Miaomiao muttered quietly: "Tsk tsk, this little emperor is young, but he has a very dark heart. With so many women, can he handle it? Don't let him age prematurely, or he won't be able to do it until he's in his twenties."
The eunuch at the gate of Cining Palace saw Zhao Miaomiao and immediately shouted at the top of his voice: "Empress Lan has arrived."
When all the concubines heard this, they immediately turned around and looked at Zhao Miaomiao.
"Is this Concubine Lan? The one who was just conferred yesterday?"
"I heard she's the second daughter of the Prime Minister. She's someone you can't mess with."
"Prime Minister Su's family? I've never heard of a girl like this in Prime Minister Su's family before."
"She's a concubine's daughter, not famous."
"No wonder."
"Looking at her appearance, she is indeed not as good as the eldest lady of the Su family."
Several concubines covered their mouths with handkerchiefs and gossiped quietly, but Zhao Miaomiao still heard them.
Zhao Miaomiao didn't care about these things. After all, they were not talking about her, but the original owner Su Lan. But when Zhao Miaomiao walked over to greet those people.
"Hi, how are you guys?"
These concubines immediately turned away slightly, unwilling to pay any attention to Zhao Miaomiao.
Zhao Miaomiao was a little angry. She looked at the dress of one of the concubines, who was wearing green clothes but a red flower on her head, and said sarcastically, "Tsk, red and green together, what a mess."
Such vulgar words frightened another concubine. She pointed at Zhao Miaomiao with her mouth open and said, "You...how can you say such things in public!"
"Why not?"
Zhao Miaomiao said as he glanced at the person in front of him, the purple skirt and red shoes, and then said: "You are worse than her. Red and purple are worse than shit."
“You! You…”
This concubine's ability to withstand pressure was so low that she fainted in public after hearing what Zhao Miaomiao said.
The maidservant beside her immediately panicked and shouted, "Someone come here. Liang Di, Liang Di, are you okay?"
"She's a good lady."
Zhao Miaomiao felt relieved. This person's position was not as high as hers. Hehe, a higher-ranking official can crush someone more powerful. She was no longer worried.
No. 99 couldn't help but go online, "Host, please tone it down! Stop causing me trouble and just follow the storyline!"
Zhao Miaomiao immediately agreed, "Okay."
Number 99 was worried. [I seem to smell a hint of conspiracy... Are you up to something bad again?]
Zhao Miaomiao looked obedient and said, "How could that be?"
But looking at the fainted Concubine Liang, he suddenly smiled. It seemed that his life in the palace would not be boring in the future.
