Chapter 66: Tryst 3
It was late at night and the rain finally stopped at night.
The several peony trees at the gate of Changqiu Palace were blown all over the place by the wind, and the petals fell to the ground. Starting from noon, Concubine Xiang started standing at the door and getting angry.
There were faint noises coming from inside the house, and from time to time something would smash out from the door of Changqiu Palace, causing the servants at the door to tremble in fear.
"Bitch! I don't know where your eyes are!" With a clang, Xiang Guipin raised the teacup in her hand and smashed it hard at the door.
"Fox charmer, don't you see what kind of person you are?" The drizzle had just stopped, but raindrops were still hanging on the eaves.
Rain water dripped from the eaves, forming a thin layer of puddles on the bluestone slabs. The young eunuchs and palace maids were kneeling on the ground, their skirts already soaked.
There were countless pieces of broken porcelain on the ground, but no one dared to move them. Zi Su stood on tiptoe and looked around for a while, then turned back and said, "Miss, Concubine Xiang has been scolding you for the whole afternoon."
I don't know what he is scolding.
He didn't stop talking the whole afternoon, either smashing teacups or throwing things. Several of the fine jade pieces were broken, which was so heartbreaking to see.
Shen Fu sat on the bench, flipping through the book in her hand leisurely with her fingertips: "She is angry."
During this period, Lord Wansui only came to Changqiu Palace, but never visited Concubine Xiang.
Concubine Xiang was a person who cared a lot about her reputation, so she felt uncomfortable for a long time when His Majesty behaved like this. After waiting so long for Shen Qingru to have her appearance ruined, Xiang Guipin must have been so happy.
I thought things would soon turn around, but I never expected that His Majesty would rather go to Shen Qingru, whose appearance was ruined, than go to her room.
Especially last night, Shen Ronghua of Changqiu Palace slept with him. He didn't come out of the Qianqing Palace until dawn.
Who in the entire harem wouldn’t be envious once the news came out?
It would be strange if Concubine Xiang could endure this!
"She is now making indirect accusations." Chen Fu found it funny.
Xiang Guipin cursed for a long time, but how could she know that the person who went to the Qing Palace last night was not Shen Qingru, but herself?
She shook her head and turned to the next one.
Zi Su seemed to understand what he said, but looking at the young lady's calm and leisurely look, she felt a little uneasy.
Yesterday the young lady said she wasn't leaving, and they actually didn't leave.
Not only that, the young lady said she wanted to kill Fengchun, but Shen Ronghua actually killed Fengchun...
Zi Su's heart was still trembling when she thought about what happened yesterday. Outside the window, Concubine Xiang threw something unknown outside.
The ding-dong sound made people feel irritated and uneasy. Zi Su frowned and said, "I don't know when Xiang Guipin's anger will end. It's almost dark."
Shen Fu sat on the soft couch, her eyes twinkling. Hearing this, she closed the book in her hand and looked out the window.
After the rain, the sky cleared up and the eaves were covered with a sky-blue color.
In a while, the sun will probably set.
Shen Fu thought of the thing on her cuff and curled up her palm on the armrest.
His Majesty asked her to go to the bamboo forest.
She had been thinking about this all day, and she knew why they wanted her to go, and what they were going to do when they went...
Shen Fu's cheeks flushed as she thought about what was going to happen next. She waited anxiously, and as it was getting dark, she finally had to obey.
"Girl." Zi Su turned around and saw her girl's face was red. She was so frightened that she said, "Girl, what's wrong with you? You are sick."
"Nothing." Shen Fu dodged her hand.
The envelope in her sleeve was a little uncomfortable to hold. Chen Fu tightened her palms and coughed, "Go get a set of your dress."
Zi Su didn't know what the girl wanted her dress for, so she obediently went downstairs to get it.
The palace maid's dress is just the most ordinary pink shirt and green skirt, but when worn by Shen Fu, it looks different in every way. The thin gauze skirt could not cover her exquisite figure, her skin was so white and icy that it was dazzling.
Chen Fu stared at the bronze mirror in a trance for a while. Then she took out a veil from the table and covered her face with it to hide the slight blush on her face.
Her drooping eyes trembled slightly, and Shen Fu walked towards the bamboo forest with weak steps, wearing the same outfit she wore when she first met the Emperor.
