Madam Su lovingly massaged Su Yunfu's head, "Okay, Xiaoyao, don't be afraid. No one will beat you anymore in the future."
Su Yunfu's face was full of surprise. If it were any other day, Madam Su would definitely side with Su Yunluan and scold her for being ignorant, but why did she change now?
Madam Su glanced at Lord Su. The two seemed to have a tacit understanding. She turned around and led her people into the gate.
It seemed that everyone looked very happy, as if they were sending away not their own daughter but the god of plague.
Su Yunfu returned to her room. Madam Su and Lord Su were standing in the corridor, sighing, "After more than ten years, we finally sent her away. This is a perfect end to our deeds."
Lord Su muttered, "Even if you die, you can't tell me about that. And are you sure Yun Luan's scars won't reveal any flaws?"
"Don't worry, sir. Girls change when they grow up. Besides, it's been so many years."
Lord Su said doubtfully, "I don't know where the real one is now."
"The world is vast, and she might have already died. Master, stop overthinking and focus on making Yunluan your favorite concubine. What kind of reward do you want from the Emperor? A title of Marquis or Duke would be even better."
Duke is the highest title among all dukes, while Viscount is the second to the last of the five titles.
Lord Su warned, "You must keep a close eye on Yu'er. Don't let him go out to play anymore. Make sure he gets first place in the autumn exam."
Su Yunyu is the legitimate son of the Viscount's Mansion. He is younger than Su Yunluan, and he and Su Yunfu are twins, a boy and a girl.
"Don't worry, sir. I will."
In the imperial palace, all the palaces knew that Su Yunluan was invited into the palace and was named Jiafei, the first of the four concubines.
The palace she lived in was the Xuankun Palace, which was personally selected by the Empress Dowager.
She took the hand of a palace maid and walked into the Kun Palace. The ten palace maids and servants in the palace knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Your servant, your servant pays homage to the Empress Jia. May the Empress be blessed with good health."
Su Yunluan looked around the entire palace. The carved beams and painted buildings were unimaginable from outside the palace. She was very satisfied and her eyes were full of joy.
She raised her hand gently and said, "Serve me well in the future, and I will not treat you unfairly."
"Yes, my lady."
An older palace maid came over and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I am Qiulin, sent by the Empress Dowager to serve you. I will be the head of the Kun Palace."
The maidservant beside Su Yunluan bowed and said, "Hello, Aunt Qiulin. I am Hongye, whom the Queen brought from the mansion."
Qiu Lin nodded, and the two of them supported Su Yunluan on the left and right and went into the hall to rest.
Qiulin served the tea and Su Yunluan took a sip elegantly.
"Your Highness, please take a rest first. There will be a banquet in the Imperial Garden at noon. I will take you there."
Banquet? Su Yunluan asked excitedly, "Is it my aunt who specially arranged the banquet for me to enter the palace, or is it the emperor?"
Qiu Lin smiled and said, "Although it's not explicitly stated that it's for Your Majesty, this is indeed a banquet specially organized by the Empress Dowager to welcome you to the palace. All the concubines in the harem will be present."
Su Yunluan chuckled and said, "What I care about most is whether the emperor will come or not. No one else matters."
"The Emperor is very busy with state affairs, so the Empress specially arranged the banquet for noon, when the Emperor will be free to attend the banquet."
Su Yunluan ordered: "Go and prepare for the bath. I must appear in the best possible manner before the Emperor."
"Yes, my lady."
After noon, the imperial garden was filled with colorful flowers and flying butterflies.
In the long pavilion, the palace servants had already prepared wine, cakes and other delicacies for the banquet, and were standing at attention to welcome the arrival of the concubines.
Of course, the concubines could not take their seats after they arrived. They had to wait until the queen arrived and invited everyone to sit down.
The focus everyone wants to see today is naturally Su Yunluan.
When Sheng Xiyan and Min Meiren arrived, they saw some concubines chatting under the wisteria trellis.
Rong Xiuyi brought Yu Mo over, and Sheng Xiyan bowed and said, "Sister Rong."
Rong Xiuyi said with a smile: "Sister Sheng, it's a good thing you brought Jiang Jiang with you, so Yu Mo won't be alone. I wonder if the Queen will bring the Princess with her, it will be more fun for the three of us to play."
Yu Mo and Jiang Jiang were playing nearby, while Rong Xiuyi, Sheng Xiyan, and Min Meiren were chatting.
Sheng Xiyan took a look and it seemed that Shen Wanrong did not come, she must be protecting the fetus.
Concubine Shu and Empress Duan arrived one after another. After the two of them took their seats, the others slowly sat down in their seats according to their ranks.
Mammy brought Le Wen over and patted Jiang Jiang, who was playing with something on the ground. He turned around and handed her a green caterpillar.
Le Wen was so scared that he burst into tears, but Yu Mo and Jiang Jiang were laughing happily.
Sheng Xiyan squatted down and coaxed Le Wen, "Princess, don't be afraid, caterpillars are so cute."
Le Wen wiped away his tears and saw Jiang Jiang put the caterpillar on his hair. Le Wen burst into laughter and reached out to grab the caterpillar and play with it.
After a while, the palace servants announced: "The Emperor has arrived, and the Empress Dowager has arrived."
The dragon chariot and the phoenix chariot were parked outside the imperial garden, and Xuan Ling supported the empress dowager as they walked in.
Empress Duan and the other concubines stood up and said respectfully, "May the Emperor be blessed, and may the Empress Dowager be blessed."
Xuan Ling wore a golden pearl crown with a dragon tassel on his head, a well-tailored dark blue dragon-patterned uniform, a beige gauze robe, and a mutton-fat jade belt around his waist.
The beautiful face reflects the innate dominance.
Even her tall and graceful figure is one in a million.
The Empress Dowager was very happy today. She looked even more graceful and elegant in her orange phoenix robe.
Xuan Ling said majestically, "Please sit down."
The concubines sat down. He looked around but couldn't find Sheng Xiyan. He thought she didn't come. Suddenly, he heard the laughter and play of children not far away. He knew that she had come and was playing with the children.
The concubines wondered why the new Concubine Jia had not arrived yet?
