Chapter 458: I don't know what to say

The breathing in the hall became quiet.

Qinglu looked at the rare sneer on her concubine's lips, and subconsciously glanced at Shuhong beside her, with obvious worry in her eyes.

In fact, she and Shuhong had looked at the dishes in advance before they were served.

Qinglu was so angry that she picked up her food box and went back to the kitchen to ask for justice.

Just because of some rumor in the palace that she had fallen out of favor, the kitchen dared to be so perfunctory!

Qinglu thought she was the one causing the trouble, but Shuhong stopped her after a little thought.

Qinglu asked her why she didn't care.

Shu Hong only said, "The noble concubine has been in low spirits since yesterday. It's a good opportunity to stimulate her and let her vent. Once she is relieved, her mood will improve."

Qinglu thought Shuhong's words made sense at the time, so she let the food be placed on the table. But now, looking at her concubine's expression, she became uncertain again.

Wouldn’t this stimulation really be counterproductive?

…

As Shu Hong expected, Si Linglong was indeed stimulated.

She has always known that it is common for the powerful to bully the weak in the harem.

Si Linglong just didn't expect it to come so suddenly. When she asked the reason, it was even more outrageous. People in the palace thought she had "fallen out of favor".

[I didn't even know I was out of favor, how come these people care? ]

Maybe it was because she was used to being spoiled by A Yue after traveling through time. Even when she "broke up" with A Yue unilaterally, she had never suffered such "wrongfulness".

If there is no reaction at all, people outside might even confirm the rumor that she has fallen out of favor.

Can't tolerate it.

Si Linglong didn't intend to endure it either.

If Zhu Sha had not said those words, Si Linglong would have had the food delivered to Yu openly at this moment, so that A Yue could see for himself how she had "lost favor" and let him give her a direct explanation.

But because of what Zhu Sha said, Si Linglong had no idea how to face A Yue, so she naturally didn't want to lose her temper with him.

But, if she couldn’t rush at A Yue, couldn’t she rush at others?

He immediately stood up and told Shuhong and Qinglu, "Pack up these meals and follow me to the kitchen."

Shuhong and Qinglu looked at each other quickly and saw a familiar look in each other's eyes.

It seems that this stimulation is effective.

The noble concubine is going to start a palace fight again.

Shuhong suppressed her joy, quickly packed up the food with Qinglu, and called two eunuchs to come over with the food boxes.

The distance from Yuxiu Palace to the kitchen was not short, so it was impossible for them to carry it themselves.

Besides, it was already time for dinner and it was almost dark outside. Even if he went to the dining room to find trouble, he couldn't let the concubine get into trouble on the way.

The two men quickly put a plush cloak on Si Linglong and put the hand warmer in her hands. Then the group walked out of the Yuxiu Palace in a mighty manner.

On the other side, Helian Yue estimated that it was almost time for dinner, so he went to the harem without asking anyone to convey his orders in advance.

Thinking about the journey from Linghua Palace to Yuxiu Palace, I would arrive there just in time for dinner.

However, she never expected that as soon as she entered the harem, she would be blocked by someone.

Seeing who it was, Helian Yue frowned subconsciously, "What are you doing?"

The person who came was Shen Rongrong, who had been sent to the harem by him earlier.

Of course Shen Rongrong was waiting for Helian Yue here.

A month ago, she was sent directly back to Yongjing by an imperial decree, and then directly sent to the palace. Since that day, she has been waiting for Helian Yue to return to the palace.

In fact, she had been looking forward to the return of the royal chariot all night yesterday.

After all, it is the rule for the newlyweds to enter the palace and sleep with the bride.

Even though this rule has never been enforced by the emperor, every woman is looking forward to her first night.

She waited obediently in the palace for a whole night, but the emperor never came.

Even though Shen Rongrong felt disappointed, she did not dare to blame Helian Yue.

Until today, she heard that Si Linglong had returned to the palace.

Although everyone in the palace said that Si Linglong had fallen out of favor after being abandoned outside the palace for a day and had just returned today, when Shen Rongrong thought of the emperor's gaze on her when that man was dancing before, she felt that the rumor might be false.

So she deliberately waited on the road to Yuxiu Palace.

Sure enough, she got what she was waiting for.

Ignoring the impatience in Helian Yue's tone when he asked, Shen Rongrong lowered her head slightly, her ears blushed, and said the words she had prepared beforehand,

"Your Majesty, I have prepared a hot pot in my palace. Your Majesty, please come to my palace..."

Before he finished speaking, Helian Yue's face had already darkened.

"I don't know what you mean."
