Chapter 736 She wants it too!
The imperial concubine stayed in the palace because she was unwell.
In addition, Concubine Jing, Concubine Li, Concubine Su, and Concubine Shao also stayed.
Only Concubine Yan and Concubine Yao followed the main group into the mountains to hunt.
Yao Jieyu simply wanted to join in the fun. She would go wherever there were many people and her mind was entirely focused on finding out gossip. Riding horses and hunting was just a side job.
Yan Cairen was determined to get the emperor.
She deliberately stayed until the end, wanting to go with the emperor.
Luo Qinghan met her shy gaze and said calmly, "I don't like crowds."
This is a disguised rejection.
Yan Cairen bit her teeth and said unwillingly, "I can leave everyone else behind, and I will be the only one to follow you."
Luo Qinghan: "To me, one more person is too many."
After saying this, he stopped looking at Yan Cairen, sped up, and rode his horse forward.
Zhao Xian and the guards also quickened their pace to catch up.
The sound of horse hooves clattering across the ground covered with thick leaves.
Their backs quickly disappeared from sight.
Yan Cairen was left alone there, feeling extremely disappointed.
She had specially changed into a beautiful new riding outfit today and had her makeup carefully applied. Coupled with her outstanding appearance, no one could be more dazzling than her today.
But she didn't expect that the emperor didn't even give her a glance from beginning to end.
Such a cold attitude, as if in his eyes, she was no different from the stones and weeds on the roadside.
Yan Cairen couldn't help but tighten his grip on the reins.
It would be fine if the emperor was born an iceberg, but that is not the case.
She saw with her own eyes that the emperor was very gentle when facing the imperial concubine.
She also wants that kind of tenderness!
The more Yan Cairen thought about it, the more unwilling he became.
She gritted her teeth and made up her mind to win first place today!
If she could get first place, she didn't want the luminous cup and white pear blossoms, she wanted to ask the emperor to allow her to sleep with him.
She believed that she was no worse than the imperial concubine in any aspect, all she lacked was an opportunity.
As long as she is given a chance to sleep with the emperor, she will definitely let the emperor know how good she is.
Yan Cairen whipped his horse whip vigorously and rode his horse into the depths of the dense forest.
The guards quickly rode up to catch up.
…
Inside the Feique Palace, Xiao Xixi leaned on the couch, reading the storybook intently.
Xiyu knelt beside the couch and handed the peeled grapes to her mouth.
Xiao Xixi only needs to open her mouth and eat.
Baoqin walked in and whispered.
"My lady, Su Cairen is here."
Xiao Xixi raised her head: "What is she doing here?"
Baoqin shook her head: "She didn't say."
Xiao Xixi remembered the last time she helped her and put down the script.
"Let her in."
"Yes."
The drizzle quietly retreated to the side.
Baoqin went out and came back, bringing Su Cairen in.
"I pay my respects to the Imperial Concubine."
Xiao Xixi pointed to the cushion next to her and motioned for her to sit down.
Su Cairen knelt down gracefully and looked up at the imperial concubine.
The imperial concubine wore a loose, chest-length skirt and had her hair in a simple bun, adorned only with a pearl and gold hairpin. She had no makeup on her face and looked very plain.
In addition, she had just vomited blood last night and her body had not yet recovered, so her face looked a little pale.
It looks even thinner.
Su Cairen asked with concern, "I heard that you were not feeling well, so I came to visit you. I wonder how you are doing? Is your health improving?"
Xiao Xixi: "It's just a minor problem, it's much better now."
Su Cairen: "That's good. Your health is precious, so you should take care of yourself on weekdays. Especially now that the weather is getting colder, you should add more clothes, drink more hot water, and don't catch a cold."
Baoqin came in, served tea and snacks to Su Cairen.
Su Cairen smiled at Baoqin and said, "Thank you very much."
After Baoqin left, Su Cairen caught a glimpse of the script next to the imperial concubine and asked with a smile.
"If your Majesty is bored, why not listen to me play a song?"
Xiao Xixi became interested: "Okay."
Su Cairen called Zhiyuan over and whispered instructions.
"Go and fetch me my lute."
"Yes."
Zhiyuan turned around and walked out of Feique Palace.
Xiao Xixi asked curiously, "Su Cairen came to participate in the autumn hunt and brought her pipa with her, right?"
Su Cairen pursed her lips and smiled, making her face even more beautiful.
"I am just in case, what if the Emperor or the Imperial Concubine wants to listen to music? A pipa is not that big, so it doesn't hurt to carry it with you. It just happens to be used now."
Soon the kite came back.
As soon as she handed the pipa to Concubine Su, Baoqin came in to report.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, Your Highness, and Mr. Shao are here."
Xiao Xixi was immediately happy.
"Have you guys made an appointment? Why are you all running to my place? Let them in, so we can listen to Su Cairen playing music together."
"Yes."
Concubine Jing and Shao Liangren walked in and were quite surprised to see Concubine Su here.
Su Cairen stood up and saluted: "Greetings to Concubine Jing."
After paying their respects to the Imperial Concubine, Concubine Jing and Mr. Shao took the guest seat opposite Ms. Su.
At this moment, Concubine Jing looked very happy, as if the fact that she was publicly reprimanded by the Emperor last night was just an illusion. Now she had forgotten everything.
Concubine Jing smiled and said, "We learned that the Imperial Concubine was ill, so we came to see her. I wonder how she is doing?"
Don't hit a smiling person. The other party was polite, so Xiao Xixi was also polite.
"I'm much better now. Thank you for your concern."
When Shao Liangren saw the pipa in Su Cairen's arms, he asked curiously, "Are you going to play the pipa for the imperial concubine?"
Su Cairen nodded: "Yes, I was afraid that the Imperial Concubine would be bored, so I wanted to play a song for her to relieve her boredom."
Concubine Jing also smiled: "Then we came at the perfect time."
Shao Liangren: "I didn't expect Sister Su to be so talented. She is much better than me."
Concubine Jing: "Just listening to the music is too monotonous. Why not call two dancers over? There will be music and dancing, and it will be more interesting. What do you think, Concubine?"
Xiao Xixi: "Since we want to watch singing and dancing, why not call Concubine Li over as well so that we can all have some fun together."
Concubine Jing was obviously surprised by the imperial concubine's special request. She was slightly startled, but quickly came to her senses and responded with a smile.
"Your Highness is really thoughtful."
Concubine Li was just bored and when she heard that the imperial concubine wanted to invite her, she went there immediately.
As a heavyweight contestant, Princess Li has completely bid farewell to waist-hugging skirts. She now only wears loose chest-length skirts.
Today she was wearing a rouge-red chest-length skirt, paired with an apricot-white top embroidered with crabapple flowers. A long shawl hung between her arms, flowing down along her wide sleeves.
Her hair was combed high, with two golden crabapple flowers pinned on her temples, and her golden hairpins swayed gently with her movements.
Although she is fat now, her facial features are still beautiful. In addition, she has a good aesthetic sense and knows how to dress to show off her beauty to the maximum. So she does not look ugly, but has a unique style of wealth and plumpness, which is unique in the harem.
